As more and more details are being revealed about Rep. Lauren Boebert’s wild night out in Denver last weekend — having been kicked out of “Beetlejuice” the musical for vaping and just generally being a public nuisance with her male companion — a full picture is coming together of what the other theater patrons around her that night had to endure.

Newly released footage of the night in question appears to show Boebert’s exposed breasts being fondled by her date for an extended period of time while she, in turn, dawdles around in his lap with her hand. As many have pointed out on social media, having seen this footage, children were seated all around the couple that night, within viewing range of what they were up to.

“Laurent Boebert was jerking her date off in public while he gropes her in a theater where children were present and yet she continues to attack LGBTQ people as ‘threats to children,’” writes journalist and clinical instructor Alejandra Caraballo on X, sharing the footage of Boebert in the act.

      Yeah but that is their justification. She was having a whirlwind romance after a divorce, which is understandable. The in group can violate boundaries and so long as it’s insufficiently grievous to the level of in/out group division and context they get away with it. The out group is incomprehensible and must be thought of within their framework. Homosexuality is a sexual sin in their framework so gay love is grossly displaying unacceptable sexual behavior. Existing as a trans person is extra gay in their framework so it must be a fetish or something sexual and sinful. And with no in group protection…
