Texas State Rep Gets in Fight With Mexican Lawmaker Over Reporting Protestors to ICE

A Texas state representative, referring to protesters at the State Capitol on Monday, said he reported “several illegal immigrants” to federal immigration authorities and then threatened to shoot a fellow lawmaker who objected.
The chaotic scene erupted around 11 a.m. on the last day of a particularly bitter legislative session in Austin, when demonstrators in the gallery of the House Chamber began chanting in opposition to a new law that bans so-called sanctuary cities. On the House floor, Representative Matt Rinaldi, a Republican, then turned to several Democratic lawmakers and told them he had reported the people to the federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency.
One of the Democrats, Representative César J. Blanco, said that Mr. Rinaldi told him and others, “We are going to have them deported,” and then used an obscenity.
“We were in shock,” Mr. Blanco said. “He assumed that because they were brown, in the gallery and protesting that they were here illegally.”
The exchange led to a confrontation among lawmakers, with some pushing and pointing at one another. Some legislators had to be restrained. Mr. Rinaldi got into a face-to-face argument with Representative Poncho Nevárez, a Democrat, and threatened to shoot him.

Evan here with a quick fact check.
And yes, the people protesting against removing sanctuary cities were illegal immigrants. Wonder why.

Well there's a Breitbart version. I tried to include video of the incident and local reporting to be more objective.

Texas' new law requires police chiefs and sheriffs - under the threat of jail and removal from office - to comply with federal requests to hold criminal suspects for possible deportation.
Police also can ask the immigration status of anyone they stop. The bill was viewed as a crackdown on Austin and other "sanctuary cities," a term that has no legal meaning but describes parts of the country where police are not tasked with helping enforce federal immigration law.
Monday's protest was organized by activists who canvassed over Memorial Day weekend in Austin. They informed anxious immigrants about the rights they retain despite the law and urged grassroots resistance against it.
Abril Gallardo rode 15 hours in a van to Austin to urge fellow Hispanics to fight back.
"Fear motivated me to get involved," said Gallardo, a 26-year-old Mexican native who entered the U.S. illegally at age 12.

I like the way they twist the headline. It's almost as if defending yourself when attacked by violent leftists is the bigger crime.

This is how/why democracy fails.
Individuals who value their group allegiances more than the security and prosperity of the future. The only real question is if that can ever be prevented, and if not, what to replace democracies with.

I have the same observation. At our current trajectory, the state will become increasingly authoritarian to hold it all together. What comes next is anyone's guess. Will whites resist more, for instance?
