Videos: Violent Anti-Trump Protesters in Austin Wave Latino Flags as They Block Traffic
Gateway pundit ^ | February 12, 2017 | Kristinn Taylor

Not an American flag to be seen in videos of a violent protest in Austin, Texas Saturday night against the recent ICE raids and the immigration policies of President Donald Trump and Governor Greg Abbott. Flags from several Latin American countries were strung together and held across a major intersection by protesters blocking traffic. A similar protest was held the night before at the same intersection.

A couple motorists blocked by the protesters got out of their cars to complain, only to be attacked and forced back into their cars. One driver returned on foot and after heated words were exchanged a brawl broke out.

Call ICE, tell them to bring shackles and buses.

They dent a guys car by kicking it. He gets out to confront them. Then drives off.

After he sees the damage, he gets pissed and brings a bunch of his friends back to the intersection and gets into a fight with the protesters.

He was a Latino looking man which made the whole thing really odd.

Lowb......here is the letter I wrote to my Senators and Congressman. I expect the usual non- response response.

Honorable Michael Bennet
United States Senate
261 Russell Senate Building
Washington, DC 20510
Dear Senator Bennet,
Would you be so kind and explain to me what the Democrat Party hopes to gain with all of this protesting and acts of violence?
The latest outrage is protestors trying to block Secretary DeVoss from entering a public school in Washington DC.
Senator, I am a 87 year old Korean War vet who is struggling to keep from using barracks language to discuss my anger and frustration with these fools.
Again I ask. What do they hope to gain?
I remember every Presidential Election from FDR’s fourth term in 1944. There was no time when the losing party behaved like the Democrats are doing now.
President Trump won the election fair and square and your side keeps spouting out the nonsense that candidate Clinton won the popular vote. So what? Our Constitution is very straightforward. The Electoral College vote determines the winner.
One last issue that I find very aggravating. Why are the Senate Democrats dragging their feet confirming The President’s Cabinet nominees? The Republicans didn’t pull these shenanigans against Presidents Clinton and Obama’s nominees.
If your staff decides to respond to me please stick to answering my concerns.
Thank you.
Sincerely yours,

willibeaux

When these domestic terrorists in the Peoples' Radical Socialist Kakistocracy of Austin get violent, they need to be stopped in their tracks.

Is that a reference to Austin?

I keep hearing "They better not try that in Texas."
But is it that Austin in not Texas?

So exactly where in Texas should then not try that?

Just avoid their green zones. Sooner or later they will come top us and the police won’t be able to protect them. If you must go into their green zone because of necessity and they try to stop you, run their asses over. Do not allow them to stop you and drag you out of your vehicle.

Many Texans will say that Austin isn’t really Texas.

They only show the reason why they deserve to be deported. They brought mob rule with them and don’t intend to assimilate.

Tricks like this could turn into a firefight much quicker than these hippies believe. Having spent their entire political life coddled and protected, they’ve lost their fear of normal humans.

Austin, being the first TX city to de-sanctuary, wins. We had a never-seen-before catastrophic freeze a month ago, killing off ancient landscaping for hundreds of miles, and the labor cost of replanting will hit the limo liberals hard, as crews will be competing for legal immigrants to field.

Texas is just as invaded and ruined as any other border state. The only people that don’t know it are Texans. I was born and raised there.

And stories like this make me happy I left to live in the US

Someone should post the links to the videos.

I’d rather not give any hits to someone who just looks at Youtube all day.

If somebody calls that a job, I call them a wanker.

I was thinking the desert of Patagonia...

Here’s a knife, a blanket and a one gallon jug of water.

See you soon and good luck...

Maybe the protesters better understand, one of these days a person is going to get out of a blocked car and the need for body bags for protesters will be needed.

I would call them anarchists. When it turned violent, when they prevented people from going about their legal business, it went from a “protest” to a crime.

Anywhere Spanish is the majority language is fine with me.

Put 'em in Madrid - the center of Hispanicness.

If you know Texas you know that the rest of Texas is not like Austin.

Austin lives up to its hipster slogan of “keep Austin weird .”

Thank you for waving your foreign flags. Makes it easier to nab your azz.
