'We're not going to escort a bus': Texas police department is SUED by Dems for violating Ku Klux Klan act by failing to escort Biden-Harris campaign bus that was 'threatened' by Trump supporters' cars 'and laughing about incident instead'
2021-11-02
[Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News]
  • Lawsuit filed by Texas Democrats over October 2020 incident involving Biden campaign bus and 'Trump Train' convoy was amended on Friday

  • San Marcos, Texas police are accused of 'privately laughing' and 'joking about the victims and their distress' as Biden bus riders pleaded for an escort

  • Updated lawsuit includes transcription of 911 call in which San Marcos police officials are heard saying they won't escort the bus after it entered jurisdiction

  • Matt Daenzer, a corporal with San Marcos police, allegedly told dispatcher: ‘We will “close patrol” that, but we’re not going to escort a bus’

  • One of those on board the bus tells the dispatcher: 'They've cut in on me multiple times. They've threatened my life on multiple occasions with vehicular collision'

  • There were no injuries as a result of the incident, which received a lot of attention, including from then-President Donald Trump

  • Trump criticized the FBI at the time after the agency said it was investigating the incident

  • At one point, one of the pickups collided with an SUV behind the bus, which was traveling from San Antonio to Austin

#1  Wait. There's grounds for private action under anti-klan acts?

Oh, boy, Democrats won't like that getting better known. They're the primary violators.
