Armed Texans placed themselves at the Alamo Cenotaph Saturday afternoon in advance of George Floyd protests in San Antonio, Texas.
Protesters defaced the monument early Friday with downward-facing arrows placed next to the statements “white supremacy,” “profit over People” and “the ALAMO,” according to an article by the San Antonio Express-News.
Texans consider the Cenotaph sacred because it is a memorial to those who died fighting at the Alamo.
“Well, it’s all pretty simple. If you’re mad that George Floyd got murdered, well good. So am I,” David Ahmad with Open Carry Texas said in a video posted on Facebook. “If you want to respond to that by burning Target, or a drug store, or looting a liquor store, or destroying the Alamo, you can kiss both sides of my ass. We’re going to put a stop to you.” He was very clear that some of those there would use “any means necessary” to put a stop to it.
“So, just do it right. Protest the man’s death because it should be protested. Things need to change. This bullshit’s got to stop.”
He warned protestors not to use Floyd’s death to “tear up the Alamo or tear up a restaurant,” or use it as an excuse to burn or steal.

Doing the job the GOP-e refuses to do
The cry “Remember the Alamo” may be heard for a second time in history.
I hope the Wall in DC is getting similar protection.
They could give a rat’s ass about George Floyd or Floyd George.....ANY EXCUSE TO LOOT AND DESTROY GOOD THINGS!!
Shouldn’t have to but there it is. ANY pawns incarcerated or eliminated yet. What about their Kings & Queens?

Can’t carry in DC at the monuments.
Glad the guy and his buddies are protecting the Alamo. Looks like he is buying into the Leftist Mantra though.
We are losing the idea that the Cop deserves his day in Court and the State has to prove its case against him, period. We are supposed to be a Nation of Laws, not a Lynch Mob.
The Soro/Socialists are hell bent on erasing U.S. history.
Us Texans never forgot.
You must be out of your mind, or maybe a ANTIFA thug.

They are Hell bent to Hell.
They mess with Texas and we will speed that process.
I am not pre judging the case.
My gut tells me the Policeman had issues, but he did not kill the suspect. The suspect had serious medical conditions.
This came to a head last night. Not related to the article.
The Antifa crowd had best not mess with Texas. It will end badly for them if they try.
Yes. Reports are they were last night.
Given demographics
They are gonna need a company stationed at the Alamo in time to protect it 24/7
Well, if they do that, they will be stopped.
It will end very badly for them.
Not sure about the wall. There were a lot of black soldiers who died in Vietnam too.
