Why didn’t they take the cash? Maybe didn’t have enough time.

Maybe they didn't need the cash, considering that they were likely funded by our own government.

These 'protesters' that travel all over the United States, live in hotels, etc. are getting paid by someone. They wouldn't do it if they weren't getting paid.

The term "Assault Weapons" has been so over used they have to change the narrative to "high-powered rifles".

I love it when the term “high powered rifle” is used.

For the most part, every legal deer rifle is a “high powered rifle.” I dare the gun grabbers to try to ban or limit that particular category before an election.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waxahachie,_Texas

In the mid-1980s Waxahachie became popular with the movie industry.

The majority of Tender Mercies, a 1983 film about a country western singer, was filmed in Waxahachie. Director Bruce Beresford deliberately avoided the city’s picturesque elements and Victorian architecture, and instead filmed more rural locations that more closely resembled the West Texas area. The Texas town portrayed in Tender Mercies is never specifically identified.[28] Mercies starred Robert Duvall, who won the 1983 Academy Award for Best Actor for his role in the film.

The 1984 film Places in the Heart starring Sally Field was also filmed in Waxahachie. Unlike Mercies, it was filmed deliberately in the town square and utilized the Victorian and plantation homes still intact in the area. Field won the Academy Award for Best Actress in 1985 for her role in the film.

The 1985 film The Trip to Bountiful starring Geraldine Page was also filmed in Waxahachie. Page won the Academy Award for Best Actress in 1986 for her role in Bountiful.

Other movies made in or around Waxahachie are:

1918, directed by Ken Harrison,[29] tells of the severe flu outbreak after soldiers returned from World War I. Local talent in the film include L.T. Felty, a former high school principal and local actor, who was cast as the mayor.
On Valentine’s Day, also directed by Ken Harrison,[29] the central film in Horton Foote’s semi-autobiographical trilogy that also includes Courtship and 1918. It is a nearly verbatim retelling of his stage play and the sets and costumes.

Missionary Man stars Dolph Lundgren and was filmed in downtown Waxahachie around the Rogers Hotel and vicinity.

Additionally, the long-running television series Walker, Texas Ranger, starring Chuck Norris, was filmed in Waxahachie on occasion. Some scenes in Prison Break were filmed in Waxahachie.

Again, the AR-15 and AK-47 are at best medium powered rifles. High powered rifles include those chambered .30-06 or .308.
