Call it the armed reopening.
While Gov. Greg Abbott this month allowed a wide range of malls, restaurants and other businesses to reopen after a coronavirus lockdown, bars, salons, tattoo parlors and other enterprises where social distancing is more difficult were ordered to remain closed for a longer period.
In at least a half dozen cases around the state in recent days, frustrated small-business owners have turned to heavily armed, militia-style protesters like Mr. Archibaldâs group to serve as reopening security squads.
The showy displays of local firepower are creating a dilemma for the authorities, who face public demands for enforcement of social distancing guidelines, but also strong pushback from conservatives in some parts of the state who are convinced that the restrictions go too far.
The broader political split came out into the open this week, when the Republican attorney general, Ken Paxton, issued a warning to three Democratic-led cities â Austin, San Antonio and Dallas â that their local Covid-19 restrictions were illegal under the statewide reopening order issued by Governor Abbott, also a Republican.
The armed gatherings are in some ways a Texas thing â a combination of longstanding antigovernment and pro-gun movements in an independent state where âCome and Take Itâ flags are commonplace and amateur warriors patrol the southern border with Mexico.

Thank you for helping me make my point.
Stick to discussing the issues and providing evidence for your opinions. You keep mentioning that you've been posting here for years and how you have a thick skin, but then you complain about being insulted or neglected. Your posts that started this back and forth read like you were trying to pick a fight with someone, anyone...and I just had no interest in responding. Would you like to discuss the coronavirus? 'Cause that's kind of a big deal these days. And it's what this thread is all about.
