Mr Latham condemned the violence during the protest in an interview with ABC's 2GB host Ben Fordham on Wednesday morning.
He said he was told by police that activists were going to block the road and deny access to the front entry of St Michael's Church.
Mr Latham was set to discuss a number of topics at the event at the church including school education, religious freedoms and parental rights.
"Police informed me that out the front there'd been, well I suppose, chaotic scenes, the equivalent of a riot, where some of the parishioners took exception of the fact that access to their church was going to be blocked by these transgender protesters, and they took matters into their own hands which was wrong," Mr Latham said.
"I think blocking roads and access to churches is definitely wrong in that setting, people like myself, a politician running for elected office, should be allowed to make his speech without that kind of action.
"They can protest on the footpath, but not blocking roads and actually blocking and denying access to the church.
"But it's also wrong for people to take things into their own hands with violence, it should have been left to the police to handle and regrettably it wasn't."
Mr Lathan added he was "all for free speech", but condemned the behaviour of blocking roadways.
