<p>Law enforcement officials with the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/texas" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Fort Worth Police Department</a> shut down Antifa agitators over the weekend who counter-protested a small group of demonstrators from &#8220;Protect Texas Kids&#8221; who were protesting a drag show event.</p>
<p>The Protect Texas Kids group arrived at a restaurant on Sunday to stage their demonstration at the event across the street when the counter-protesters showed up &#8220;dressed in black, wearing helmets and outer tactical vests, and many of them were armed with handguns and long guns,&#8221; officials said in a statement.</p>
<p>The FWPD monitored both groups using city cameras. The department said that while they respect everyone&#8217;s constitutional rights to free speech and assembly, they are also focused on ensuring there is &#8220;a safe environment that respects all participants&#8217; constitutional rights, while effectively maintaining public peace and order &#8230; those who choose to violate the law and assault others will be arrested and charged.&#8221;</p>
<p>During the event, &#8220;officers observed a member of the counter-protest group, later identified as 20-year-old Samuel Fowlkes, approach the &#8216;Protect Texas Kids&#8217; protesters and spray them with pepper spray,&#8221; police said.</p>
<p>When police tried to arrest Fowlkes, he allegedly &#8220;began to evade officers and then swung his closed fists at officers who tried to stop him.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;While the officers were attempting to place Fowlkes into handcuffs, another member from the counter-protest group, later identified as 33-year-old Christopher Guillott, interfered with officers&#8217; efforts by swinging an umbrella at officers,&#8221; police said. &#8220;Guillott struck an officer in the face and was then placed under arrest.&#8221;</p>
<p>While officers tried to place Fowlkes and Guillott under arrest, backup was called to help secure the scene.</p>
<p>Police instructed the counter-protesters to stay back on the sidewalk, at which time &#8220;a third counter-protester, later identified as 37-year-old Meghan Grant, attempted to charge past FWPD officers multiple times to gain access to the Fowlkes and Guillott.&#8221;</p>
