I went to No Kings protest at the Capitol last June. Austin Post stated the crowd was "up to" 20K. This event on 10/18 will be much larger. Wouldn't be surprised if the majority of goers don't see them.
FYI, last June Abbott sent 5K NG soldiers & 2K DPS troops across the state for those protests. ✌️

Update: snapshot of rescue helicopter over Camp Mystic. It was accompanied by a photo of 2 young girls inside a helicopter, so hopefully they’re the first 2 of many rescues.

Update: Attached is a post from a Camp Mystic parent whose daughter thankfully survived. In it she mentions the heroism of one of the camp’s many amazing young adult counselors, Annabelle, as well as the beloved camp director who died trying so save some of the campers.
