News from Autsin, Texas. A group of armed Black Second-Amendment activists marched through Austin, Texas over the weekend and called on the US to close its borders. “The protesters, gathered together by the Elmer Geronimo Pratt Gun Club, moved . . . toward the Texas Capitol [last] Saturday in what they called the `Second Amendment Unity Walk.’”
The marchers yelled chants in support of closed borders and against immigration. See the tweets above by journalist Ford Fischer.
Elmer Geronimo Pratt Gun Club founder Nick Bezzel is quoted as saying that the group isn’t opposed to immigration itself but takes issue with illegal immigration. “A lot of times, jobs are taken away from black people because of illegal immigration,” Bezzel said. “Black people are locked out from employment due to illegal immigration so we want to stop illegal immigration so black people can make living wages.”
