SAN ANTONIO — Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has deployed a contingent of National Guard troops to San Antonio, where the governor's press secretary said the soldiers "are on standby in areas where mass demonstrations are planned in case they are needed."

It's unknown exactly how many were sent to the Alamo City.

"Peaceful protests are part of the fabric of our nation, but Texas will not tolerate the lawlessness we have seen in Los Angeles," said Press Secretary Andrew Mahaleris in a statement. "Anyone engaging in acts of violence or damaging property will be swiftly held accountable to the full extent of the law.”

Good for Abbott, the history of the Alamo really sticks in craw of radical leftists and radical leftist mexicans.

REMEMBER THE ALAMO!!! Viva Max! Half of those Anti-ICE bastards are either waving a Messican flag or wearing a Pizza Hut tablecloth hat. This is only 50% anti-ICE. The Muzzie Terrorists have infiltrated the illegal alien Messican Cartel gangbangers.

San Antonio got a lot of big, I mean really big women there.

At least that is what Big Mouth Barkley says.

Yeah. My son is stationed there. At Lackland. He’s actually Army. Why the station at a AFB don’t know. He does have to ride over to Sam Houston a few days a week. He says San Antonio is a left wing dump. I taught him well. 😎

Ft Sam Houston Cemetery is in San Antonio and father is buried there. I’m a fan of the town because of that.

Rules of engagement must be publicized: if you attempt physical harm upon soldiers you will be shot.
Throw a rock, get shot.
Light a Molotov the sniper will shoot you.
And, so on.

These are not demonstrators, they are terrorists planted in the group by the hiring party to start a riot and make the Admin look brutal.

So, tell ‘em what to expect and go for it.

Florida will be next. Then Illinois.

These governors are doing what Newsome should have done on Day One.

I posted this on the FB page the other day.

My relative is in a position to know what he is talking about as he has worked with disabled Vets, the VA, courts, etc., for the last 17 years.

I never knew this until the other day, and I thought about these particular circumstances where the NG is going against the most vicious and stupid cretins who think they’re movie heroes.

I don’t know if this is enough to make any Governor ask President Trump to call up the NG instead of the Gov’s office but I think it’s worth considering for the troop’s sake.

.... “Every time a GOVERNOR calls up their troops, those “civilians soldiers” are not considered veterans if injured and discharged. They are eligible for states workers comp benefits.

They are only Veterans if called up by the Prez. This is what they are designed for. They are not battle-trained military members ready to go up against the foreign varsity. They are trained to live as civilians and play part-time with the real guys and gals who are professionals.

This is a Title 10 call up.

This is a federal action and is making Veterans out of civilians” ...

His point is, if called by Prez they are better protected against injuries and disabilities if it occurs in the line of duty.

I think it’s worth thinking about. Does anyone disagree or have other information?

What’s DeSantis doing about Florida? Has anyone seen anything coming from the Governor’s Office? I haven’t seen anything anywhere. It’s like everyone’s on vacation. But rallies are being scheduled statewide by “No Kings”, an anti-ICE organization, for Saturday, June 14. The one for Tampa is downtown at the City Hall, at 3pm.

Post as much as possible on sites that have ad blockers, please.

Sure, SA has a high population of Hispanics but it is Austin that will be the most violent. Always is. They’re already calling for a “circus”.

Good for Abbott, the history of the Alamo really sticks in craw of radical leftists and radical leftist mexicans.

If the lefties are going to try to coordinate nationwide insurrectiony activity in cities nationwide, conservative states with a Republican governor and large cities (Texas, Florida, Louisiana, Tennessee, etc.) would do well to strategically deploy the state guard without waiting for the feds, to take some of the pressure off. Then Trump can send U.S. troops and federalize the Guard where necessary (Seattle, Minneapolis, Chicago, New York City, Baltimore, etc.)

The history especially sticks in the craw of George P. Bush and La Raza with the Castro twins and their mama.

The second half of those aren’t being followed through with so we have nationwide chaos. Patting them on the head isn’t going to do a thing.

See Gov. Hairgel, that wasn’t so hard after all.
