Groups of protesters began arriving in Austin, Texas, on Saturday evening amid warnings to the public from local police about potential trouble as the night progresses.

Residents of several apartment complexes near police department headquarters have received letters from property managers, warning that “armed” protesters may try to access the buildings to get a better view of the protests below, FOX 7 of Austin reported.

"Keep your eyes open for anyone that might be on the roof or upper balconies," one warning letter said.

They’ve been told to take the high ground. To threaten from above. It’s long past time we began to take these Marxists and Anarchists seriously.
Some say, no, they are looking for a violent reaction that the MSM will publish and use to make us look bad?
Well, what is the answer to this escalation? Let them kill innocent people so we do not get portrayed as bad guys?
Do not engage them and let them target and kill innocents so we can show how virtuous we are?
Explain that tactic to the families of the murdered victims and their families.
I say we engage these Marxists/Anarchists with extreme prejudice. Start eliminating them by the hundreds and they will crawl back into their mommy and daddy’s basements and take their Marxist/Anarchist fantasies into their basements.
We need to be done with them and they need to understand this completely.

I agree with you. These POS deep state pawns are being bussed from all over and are being supplied with Chinese arms by deep state money. In the event that they are killing people and engaging in guerrilla warfare in OUR streets, it’s time to sh&t or get off the pot!

I think we need to seriously consider more profound and influential targets than the just Marxist stooges in the streets.

Agree, and let’s start volunteering for jury duty rather than avoiding it. Find for the defendant and against the state, every.single.time.

Yeah, I think not.

Enemies, foreign and domestic, are trying to destroy this country. When found, they need to be taken down, hard.

They cannot be allowed to burn the cities and loot. I have no sympathy for any of them that do that.

Tulsa doesn’t have the suppliers or the transport options.

Tulsa is a hub for agriculture products and regional oil and gas explorationa and production, so...

The Port of Tulsa handles somewhere around 3 Million tons of cargo annually. Tulsa International Airport can handle all manner of air cargo. Railroad and Highway infrastructure is quite adequate

And they’re pretty far away from the dinggy Austin liberals.

PS...I’m a long time Texas resident, so have no particular axe to grind in favor of Oklahoma

They attack weakness.

Tough mayors and police chiefs need to take care of business.

...warning that “armed” protesters may try to access the buildings


Scum media puts “armed” in quotes and refers to breaking-and-entering as “try to access”.

"It will not turn out well for them." It will be like a drunk picking a fight with Mike Tyson in his prime.😎

Texas is fine for Tesla. They just should not have chosen Austin/Travis County.

But they still don’t have the suppliers in-state. Auto manufacturer suppliers have operations near the plants they supply, and there’s big clusters of those in Dallas and San Antonio already.
