Boy, it’s amazing how responsive they are in when it's a bunch of students protesting war crimes, as opposed to a bunch of students cowering in classrooms trying to avoid getting shot.
How else are the kids going to play dress-up with military surplus? Besides, e v e r y o n e knows a ceramic plate carrier is a prerequisite for dealing with any college student. Their words cut so deep.
It makes sense, the protestors were clear and honest about their non-violent intentions, which is perfect as a target of oppression. They don't get any warning for real crimes like school shootings so there's nothing they can do, too bad.
It should be noted these are State Troopers, who basically follow Abbott's orders these days, and are always itching to put on a show for the cameras, eg the one above. APD and UTPD don't seem to be involved in this.
Edit: UTPD was involved:
UT Police Assistant Chief Ashley Griffin issues a dispersal order to those present. That statement was read over campus loudspeakers, Ryan Chandler reports.
“I command you in the name of the People of the State of Texas to disperse, and if you do not, you shall be arrested for Violation of Penal Code Section 42.01 Disorderly Conduct, 42.02 Riot, 42.03 Obstructing a Highway or other passageway,” the order reads.
From everything I've seen, this was a peaceful, mobile protest that caused no disruptions until the police caused disruptions.
Aaahh look at these adorable wanna be somethings. Heros that ran in to a school when there was an active shooter killing little kids, look how proud they stand not shitting there pants because now there are no guns fireing.
Quick throw an acorn….
