PHILADELPHIA — Members of the controversial, self-described parental rights group Moms for Liberty vowed not to be deterred by opposition as their annual gathering kicked off a second day in Philadelphia — even as a sizable crowd of protesters gathered outside with no plans to give up their vigil, either.
For a second day, demonstrators heckled conference attendees, organized banned-book giveaways and waved signs with slogans like “Moms for Bigotry” and “It’s been 247 years, and we still need to fight tyranny in Philadelphia.”
The day offered the potential for some of the most contentious moments of the four-day summit both inside the conference site and at protest locations across the city.
