Which protest are you referring to? The one at DPS headquarters hasn't happened yet if that is what you are asking. It supposedly is taking place in December.
Well, DUH! I thought it was today. Oh well, I'm still not going.

I support OC; however, there is a right way and a wrong way to go about doing anything.

Dressing like "Duck Dynasty" rejects, brandishing (yes, I said brandishing) guns and taunting the police is not the right way to win OC support of the voting public, the police or the legislature, IMO. OTOH, TV cameras love it and the anti-gun liberals see it as substantiating their position that guns should not be allowed on the streets...or anywhere else.

It is all in the presentation. Perception is reality.
