Another lawmaker told Axios that constituents say “civility isn’t working” and to get ready for “violence … to fight to protect our democracy.” And another said, “It’s like … the Roman coliseum. People just want more and more of this spectacle.”
Violence is already going on. In Alvarado, Texas, a militant group broadly allied with Democratic views launched what officials call a “coordinated attack” on the ICE Prairieland Detention Center on the Fourth of July. According to court documents, it started at about 10:30 p.m., when a group of 10 to 12 antifa radicals, dressed in all black, began shooting fireworks toward the building. Some began to vandalize parked cars. When unarmed ICE workers called 911, an Alvarado Police Department officer arrived.
“Immediately after the APD officer got out of his vehicle, an assailant in the woods opened fire, shooting the APD officer in the neck area,” the court document states. Then, another gunman “also opened fire at the unarmed Department of Homeland Security correctional officers. In total, the assailants shot approximately 20 to 30 rounds at the correctional officers.” Police later found two AR-15-style rifles and spent casings in the nearby woods.
