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.

It was spoken last night.
Yep
My view. There is a case for Police Brutality and Involuntary Manslaughter.
Anything beyond that is no better than a Lynch Mob holding a Kangaroo Court with a wannabe Roland Freisler Presiding.
Heck, just listening to Rush and his personal opinion is that the Cop should be Charged with First Degree Murder.
We have moved into a new era, and the Republic itself is at risk.
Great pictures!
And again with the rush to let the media pass judgement, “If you’re mad that George Floyd got murdered”!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Several years ago a hispanic TV station was doing a series on domestic violence in the hispanic community.
They met up with a woman at the local park since she was afraid to say anything in her home.
The husband found out, drove to the park and shot the wife in the head, LIVE AND ON CAMERA.
But he was still always referred to as the “ALLEGED” shooter.
So in several cases where there CANNOT be any real doubt as to guilt the disclaimer of “Alleged” continues to be used.
But in this case which is NOT without doubt the presumption of innocence (Alleged) is forgotten in at least nine out of ten comments.
Pathetic that this is being tolerated.
What does that even mean?
Thanks for posting these pics.
Thanks for the ping!
Those in Hawaiian shirts are supposed to be Boogaloo Boys. I guess they put aside their hate of the government to keep the Alamo safe? That, or they are fake Boog Boys and are only wearing the shirts cuz it’s cool?
I've carried concealed for years.....never open..unless hunting in the woods.
Been pulled over for ticky tack things..never asked if I had a weapon in the truck. And I did...but never asked.
What’s your contribution, Mr. Keyboard Warrior?
20 years of military service Skippy.
“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. “
Straight talk!
Straight talk?
Yes
And the actions match.
My pleasure.
So why are you being a jerk about the guys at the Alamo?
It is because of the press policies. From Top down.
He will not be convicted of murder. He probably will not be convicted of manslaughter.
I’m not. Just wondering if those are true Boog Boys, or guys wearing Hawaiian shirts (the identifying characteristic of the Boogaloo Boys) because they believe it the cool thing to do.
