As Republican lawmakers prepare to adopt a bill outlawing transitioning surgery for youngsters, an enraged crowd of transgender activists stormed the Oklahoma State Capitol building.
Videos of 200 activists storming Oklahoma’s legislative building’s atrium are currently going viral.
“Mob of #trans activists took over the Oklahoma Capitol building to try & stop the state’s Republican lawmakers from passing bills that would outlaw the transitioning of minors & require teachers to inform parents if students identify as trans,” Andy Ngo wrote.

He also penned, “Militant #trans activists occupied Oklahoma Capitol on Monday to try to stop conservative lawmakers from passing bills banning the transitioning of children in the state, as well as restrictions on teachers hiding trans identity of students from parents.”
The capitol building was then referred to as “our house” by the mob.

“Wow. Literally shaking. Oklahoma came under attack today by a group of insurrectionists. I’m sure the FBI is already on it and will use every available resource to identify all these domestic terrorists,” Libs of TikTok posted.

In a recent statement regarding the legislation, Oklahoma state senator David Bullard said, “We have a sacred duty to protect our children from those who wish to do them harm. Senate Bill 129 is designed to protect our children from those who want to benefit financially at their expense. Child abuse is a felony in our state and mutilating a young person’s genitalia should be viewed no differently.”
