Back in 2022, actor Kirk Cameron published a faith-based children's book, As You Grow. But it has been met with roadblocks since its release. Cameron has since gone on a book tour that has similarly faced difficulties. Recently, while at a book event in Arkansas, protesters turned up at Cameron's tour, including individuals in drag who sat in at the event. Cameron has been decried by GLAAD, a non-governmental organization that responds to harmful portrayals of LGBTQ individuals in the media, for his comments against marriage equality on Piers Morgan Tonight. Here is the latest protest against the Growing Pains alum's tour.

I think that it's - it's detrimental, and ultimately destructive to so many of the foundations of civilization."
