A Veteran’s Day gathering at the Austin Capitol turned sour as police thugs arrested one man for carrying a toy gun.

AUSTIN (INTELLIHUB) — “We are part of the American citizens and the United States Constitution”, said U-Streamer Kory Watkins, broadcasting live from the capital on Veteran’s Day, as he was addressing an officer of the law.
This comment came after CJ Grisham with OpenCarryTexas.org was arrested for carrying a toy gun.
Watkins describes the police presence at the park Monday, as a bunch of “hungry thugs”.
Watkins walked around the capitol grounds asking others what they thought about the events that transpired. While some were in support of Watkins, others told him to move along, not liking what the group was doing.
All and all, it was a win for activists as this demonstration has brought attention to the matter. Watkins, the activist behind the camera, delivers a first person feel for the viewers at home with no mainstream media B.S. via U-Stream and wireless Internet technology.
At one point Watkins was antagonizing the police, later to get a handshake from another.
