Aren't you full of good news this Monday morning. That's right in our backyard. I would much rather this stay up in Portland. This is way too close to home for comfort.
I notice the Plano police officer there just watching. Why isn't he directing the protesters to get off the street? Waiting on backup perhaps?

I'm currently reading Boessenecker's book about Frank Hamer, and early 20th century Texas is looking oddly contemporary right now- especially the Sherman Riot of 1930.

I'm mostly unfamiliar. I remember there being popular(?) displeasure with the Texas Rangers and them being disbanded, only to get called back to service when the good idea fairy didn't turn out the way they had hoped re: disbanding effective law enforcement.
Can you explain further for those of us unfamiliar with the specifics?

But what is he, the TX AG going to do about it?
Is he going to task DPS to pick up the slack where locals can not or will not?
