It was an incredible, totally peaceful event. We started on the steps of the Capitol and then marched down to Zilker park for the main speakers. Greg Abbott called up the Texas Guard because he didn’t want “Los Angeles riots”. Of course there were bo incidents and actually never even saw a guardsman. More Kubuki theater from Abbott.
