I just took a violent dump, but I'm not in Austin.

[Cajun 11714]

Well, I had 3 Carne Guisada and cheese at Taco Riendo, so I'm expecting some violence any minute.

Hang tight!

Situation's fluid.

[Foggy Notion 1202]

Looks like things have been fairly tame so far despite lots of open carry folks downtown earlier. A few skirmishes between protesters and cops on bikes and horses, but nothing major.

Buses were finally spotted, but turns out they were full of DPS troopers, not protesters from Portland.

 

[Longhorn 145]

One protest is going to Kathy Tovos house.  I think she lives just north of campus.

I laughed at an earlier post that talks about cops making overtime during these protests to defund police.  Good stuff.

There's a whole lot more the Austin city council needs to fix before APD. If black lives really mattered, they'd call them out on gentrification.

I have a friend who is THP. He’s on the front line right now. They brought in 800 troopers.

THP? Are you talking about Texas Department of Public Safety?

[4th and 5 4914]

Abbreviation for highway patrol aka troopers.

'Reporter'(LOL) chronicles one of the marches:

8m

It’s very dark and my video is crap. Protesters are trying to take the highway but there is debate about it

7m

Apologies for the dark video. Maybe 50 holding the interstate. The march is divided

7m

Organizer pleading with protesters to fully take the interstate as it has been an instrument of segregation in Austin. (Like a tuba or clarinet?)

5m

Driver just negotiated passage

Report: there are heavily armed boogaloo (look it up) members along with lots of protesters. It’s getting rough down there. LE is making a lot of arrests.

Well according to the news tonight, triple digits temps are here to stay and Microsoft may or may not be buying tik tok.

I searched Twitter for Austin.
There is an infowars.com article also I saw on twitter, would not normally post, but it is Austin....

 

 

 

Even though Millie is from Infowars, I would still give her the beef.

Um. My memory of history may be a little off, but that doesn’t resemble anything from the Civil Rights Movement.

I'm at the beach. Can someone go by my house in the burbs to make sure it's not burned down? Also if any blacks are in my pool call the police. TIA.

They will clearly go home and now vote to abolish the police. One person at a time. 

[Ignatius 4017]

White people stopping black people from passing freely through the city, people on bullhorns calling black people n****er in public places...funny, the headlines are the same bu this doesn’t quite have the feel of 1961....

Lulz at “I’m ‘bout to air this bitch out”....

What if they’re bussing in 2nd amendment or alt-right types to instigate violence?  

Some in the alt-right would be dumb enough to call for that, but all of them know how that turns out in the end. 

There are idoits out there. Of all stripes. The media loves the Idoits. Best not to encourage idoicy of any stripe in my opinion. People are edgy enough. San Diego had a similar wave of petty vigilanteism on both sides. Lasted for two weeks - then gone. The marches were organized, but no one tolerated violence. The idoicy was shut down quick with curfews. Marches during the day were actually community building. Everyone off the streets in troubled areas at night. City leaders have emergency powers - good police departments follow orders. 

Do the police have this under control?

You are unironically correct.

[Celery Man 20962]

No real idea who this guy is but here's a stream of tweets with photos from Austin today/tonight.  Boogaloo boys showed up, looks like a few confrontations between different factions at the Garret memorial, cops corralling protestors off the streets. Doesn't seem like much.

So "relatively peaceful" (since postmodernists removed truth from the knowable.  Nihilists. Fuck the Nihilists). . . . spit. 

Austin has a modern police department I assume. Tonight is a show of force for all the idoits out there.

Edit to add: Thought I quoted the video of the cops on horses easily pushing "good trouble" protesters away.

And yet it had a riot. Burning of some businesses. But it quickly petered out.

Is being a loudmouth part of karenhood? I know the entitled part is the primary determinate, but isn't loudmouthedness also a primary ingredient? Asking for a friend.
