ABC.

This clip was inside and when he spoke, the security around Abbott looked very threatened and then they started advancing on Beto.

I wish I could watch it twice. Wow, unbelievable.

The beginning of the segment talked about how Abbott was saying guns are not the problem.

I don't live in Texas and from what I've heard they're gun crazy down there, so maybe Abbott can get away with this. I find it unbelievable myself.
