Cornyn Protest Team Message Always Same As Potatoes Fly

The John Cornyn Houston Office Protest Team asserts claim to the first display of a Harris/Walz sign in the county. Above you see two of our team at our Week 391 Protest today. This just hours after the announcement of Tim Walz as the Democratic Vice Presidential nominee.   

The other picture is of a potato thrown at us from a balcony. The man also threw eggs at us. The potato is squished because a car ran over it. There was another squished potato a few feet away.  

The Cornyn Protest team offers the same message over and over: It is essential that we vote and that voting will not be enough.  

We were out today with a basic mainstream political deal of vote Harris/Walz. But that angered someone enough that he threw food at us from high above.  

We are out in the open for democracy. It is essential that people see others like themselves willing to show up for democracy no matter the aggression of the right. Voting may well not be enough. 

The right has potatoes, guns, giant trucks and so on. We must be willing to meet them head on. 

The John Cornyn Houston Office Protest is each Tuesday, 11:30-1, 5300 Memorial Dr. We have extra signs for all and we are a friendly crew. Please join us.
