I've volunteered at Pride a few times, been to more, and honestly I tell people if they're in those events and are in danger (like someone is following them or they feel scared after an incident) to look for drag queens and go straight towards them.
I have personally witnessed how militant they can be when it comes to protecting weaker folk, and some of them are RIPPED!! I don't really know exactly what the reasoning behind it is, though in my experience they'll keep you safe.
It's even better when they stay in character as well, "bye, baby we don't need that here".
“Calm down puddin’, ain’t nobody tryin’ to eat your pie…. -SMACK-”
Drag Queens are the enforcers of the community
If they weren't confident in defending themselves they wouldn't be confident enough to wear the uniform.
