BLM a while back thought they would defile the Alamo. Volunteers got wind of spray paint on a outlying statue, and were there heads up the next day. Armed and ready on the spot.

They saw what they faced and never came back. They made the right call. Some people you don’t want to screw with.

It's not like people wouldn't notice.   We always saw the Alamo in our history books setting above a rolling plain with grass for miles around.   Then I saw the Alamo IRL with the city encroached up to its walls.

We literally walked up the street from a tiddy bar and there it was.   Very accessible but still magnificent.

It has a quiet presence, inside.

And a reverence to most who come there.

Being from Indiana, I was surprised as well.
