Related: About this forumConroe Texas is in a deep red part of the state (heck the county has two KKK chapters)
My middle child tried a case in Conroe and was in line at the courthouse behind people with KKK and similar tattoos at least twice for a five-day trial.

(32,354 posts)A respectable-sized "No Kings" crowd in a conservative East Texas enclave like Conroe is something to take note of. It's impressive to have 100,000 people turn up in Manhattan (without a single arrest incident, reportedly). But when folks start publicly protesting in Conroe, TX and in states like Idaho, something's going on. Fingers crossed, everybody.
