‘Do NOT Bring Children’ Warns Texas ‘Destroy the Confederacy’ Organizers

A Facebook post for a protest dubbed “Destroy the Confederacy” at Sam Houston Park in Houston on Saturday warns “*Do NOT bring children.” A group “committed to protecting Texas and Texas History,” “This Is Texas Freedom Force” (TITFF), says demonstrators plan to tear down a Confederate statue. They also warn there will be violence. The promoters of the protest tell potential attendees: “We will meet at Sam Houston Park (right in front of Houston City hall) to demand that the City of Houston ERASE THE CONFEDERACY! It is a STAIN IN THE FABRIC of our history that needs to be removed.”

Another part of the post says – “*Do NOT bring children.”

One of the organizers of the event, Black Lives Matter of Houston, tells protesters to meet at the “Spirit of the Confederacy Statute” at Sam Houston Park.

Ha! Good luck with that!

2018 is going to be a bloodbath for members of The Socialist Democrat Party. By this coming Fall, everyday Americans are going to be MORE THAN fed up with the antics of the Left.

MOST of us have already had it, are 100% sick of it...and we’re only 10 months in!!

I don’t know what the answer is. If the government doesn’t stop this then it’s time to stop the government. But, I gotta hand it to them. By tearing down Confederate monuments and being met with resistance they’ve made it a black vs white issue.

I sincerely hope there are lots of folks with concealed carry permits in attendance. And for the record, it is legal to carry a long rifle in texas ... in public... without a permit.

Bottom line is cops should be stationed there and let the BLM take their violence out on them.

It’s time for ALL politicians to condemn violence .... On both sides.

“...Yes, but what instructions will the police receive from the local political leadership? Do the politicians want another incident? The mayor is a Democrat...”

IF they’re smart, they damn well better do their jobs regardless of what comes out of the RAT mayor’s mouth, or someone else may do the job for em and it won’t be pretty.

If the government doesn’t stop this they will kill people trying to vote in 2018. They’ll keep ramping it up until they’re stopped.

A stain on the fabric of our history? WTF is that suppose to mean in context of a country’s history?

They’re not even smart enough to have good faux outrage.

1. The fact that they are saying “don’t bring children” means they plan on it becoming violent.

2. The mayor of Houston will most likely be a participant.

We were worried Obama would declare martial law. I believe Trump needs to call out the NG and declare martial law.

This nonsense is a big help to GOP. While the Democratic Party is busy fighting the Civil War again, GOP will be seen as focussing on real issues that matter.

Yep. That is what is going to happen because the left, dems and even a few GOP have stated it’s okay to assault and seriously injure people who have a different political view than you if you find it offensive.

Right? this is just the left and dems repeating the same old nonsense that they’ve been doing for the last few years with the same groups committing violence. How did that turn out for them? They double down on their stupidity. I’ m sure this crap plays well in the rust belt. They’ll be winning that back with ANTIFA and BLM tearing down monuments and statues across the country.

I only pray that is the case, but the Dems are energized and their turnouts during the special elections has generally been way up while the Rep turnout has been lower even in strong Rep districts.

The hate is visible for all to see. The Democrats hated the Puerto Ricans so much that they have bankrupted them. The Democrats hated the people of Detroit so much that they bankrupted them. The Democrats hate the people of Chicago and Illinois so much that they are bankrupting them. The real hate in this country is the Democrat Party. They hate that they can’t loot more public treasuries.Stealing is hate.

With all of the unsustainable numbers of illegal aliens flooding the labor market, Dems seem to hate American workers, including union workers more than anyone else; that's for anyone to observe.
