River Oaks is a symbol of upper-class [white] wealth , everything the "protestors" envy and despise.

The "walk" route is as I described above, but I believe it's confirmed they'll turn north on S. Shepherd on their return route. So we may see Kirby and S. Shepherd closed down for a period of time tomorrow.

I just hope it stays peaceful and sane.

A much better route would be to start at Lamar High School. (probably could park there legally and assemble there legally, if we are worried about that sort of thing) Then cross Westheimer and head down River Oaks Boulevard and turn around at River Oaks Country Club and back. Those are all 6 million dollar homes along River Oaks Boulevard.

Gosh if its at River Oaks Shopping Center. You could watch from the second floor of Barnes and Noble with a Starbucks.

Where does he live anyway?

Maybe he lives in River Oaks with all the money he takes

He lives in Bender's Landing in Sping.

Last I heard, yes; and the Bakers too.
