Went by again tonight, they were good and didn't leave any mess behind.
One picture via twitter: https://twitter.com/ft_dallas/status/1400970794256191491 Note no crowd pictures, because it was pretty small. 50ish I think based on my observation, maybe 75. Note pretty professional main signs, 3 of them. Sticking to the message, a central core somewhere setting things up and then letting the normies join in and do their own rougher signs. Good clean message protest, not action, knowing that much disruption at rush hour is probably a net negative to the actual people involved. Young ladies and kids up front, Arafat or Kill-the-Juice types in the back. Good location to get people's attention thinking it will be against Raytheon, when it is really directed at the public on the frontage road. But also bad since could not engage with public except for an instant. Basically made to feel good about the movement, get people involved in simple things, but a step up by attacking an exterior thing, rather than pro-their-tribe. |

Quoted: Yes, it is. One of the best Delmonico Steaks I have ever had and they pour a mean drink. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: Decent number of folks arriving, parking in the Shire parking lot. The restaurant Texas (or someone) has a random joe stationed in the front parking aisle asking you to park elsewhere if you're with the protest. Go visit Texas though, great restaurant! Yes, it is.

Just a bump to say I haven't heard of anything for this weekend yet. Post up if you hear any news.
Still seeking info on the "Fort Worth Formation" on Saturday July 3. CPAC in Dallas on July 7-11, will be protests against it in some form. |

I heard on Chris Salcedo's (820am) show that there is going to be a march on 6/22 protesting critical race theory being taught in Ft. Worth schools.
Will a counter protest be planned? Could get sporty, parents are reaching a limit when it comes to their kids. |

Historically, Lefties have demonstrated an ability to do a counterprotest on short notice in places like Wichita Falls. As a political prize, Fort Worth is a way bigger prize as it is the largest Texas city that still has local GOP control.
I’d presume counterprotest. Good news is Fort Worth isn’t a bunch of pussies. Bad news is the response they’ll deliver is probably not anything anybody here would find acceptable, so plan to take care of yourself. |

It appears that a grand jury has decided not to indict the jailers at the Collin County jail.
When does the party start. |

I think this was posted instants before the announcement, as there's no notice of the no-bill. Attached File |

Low energy.
Pics on these tweets
edit: poor coordination - looks like half at the courthouse, half at the jail. |

Yeah, and not much going on there so far. We'll see maybe tomorrow night - it takes awhile to fire people up and get them bused in, lawyers lined up for getting them out of jail, coordination with local elected chumps as to how rioters are to be given control of the streets, and how the police should properly be used to defend rioters and arrest those defending themselves. These things take time.

I'd think it would be tonight or bust. If the rabble can't get organized / bused in by tonight for some peaceful Burning Looting and Marauding, a day after the grand jury issued their decision, then it's unlikely it's going to happen later either.

Just for those interested, most of Collin counties coms are encrypted. There is some stuff on the EMS and fire channels but it's pretty quiet for the most part.

And I doubt that in jail, he looked or acted like the jovial, smiling gentlemen in the flyer. Make or break weekend for this issue. There's been a lot of protests and marches and hollering about this, now the grand jury has spoken, if there's not a veto via Burn Lot Murder rioting, the issue is closed. You do wonder how much planning goes into these cases - outside media attention via media consulting firms who lobby news outfits to make any one case the next Big Thing!!! Transport of hoodlums into a city, social media hyping via What's Trending, which is whatever Twitter wants to be, legal support so rioters have to do nothing to be released for free within hours, the word coming down to local governments to get the cops to wet their thumbs and stick it squarely in their ass when they see approved crimes being committed, while ruthlessly suppressing self-defense by honest citizens. Has the word come down from the various leftist groups that riot time is over, as the message now is that things are wonderful due to President Depends. and there's no longer a support infrastructure for rioters? So you're just left with the more normal and organic dozen or so characters holding up signs for a few hours and going home? |

View Quote So that was it? Couple of folks had a protest in Allen which was then counter-protested by others? No big street shutdowns, no peaceful looting? Sort of a let down after month and months of hyping this up. Feeds into my guess that the riot infrastructure of lawyers / media consultants / political cover / organization and funding has been shut down. With President Depends occupying the White House, the Ruling Class wants to show that things are looking back up again, and destroying cities over random jailhouse deaths isn't what they want to focus on. Next weekend is the 4th, so even harder to get things organized and attention placed on it compared to holiday plans and events. |

2020 was definitely not organic and well funded from somewhere. Someone has to pay for all those plane and bus tickets. Remember the video in Louisville of riot shields and other weapons getting unloaded from a uhaul truck?
Now that biden is in office they want to forget 2020 ever happened. Good that someone showed up to let those "protesters" know they won't be able to just burn things down without any resistance. Did APD make any arrests of those who blocked the intersection? |
