Alt-Right Trolls Stirred Things Up, Resulting in Camo, Guns and Trump Supporters at the Sam Houston Monument

Alt-right trolls stole the name of the anti-fascist group Houston Antifa and launched an event page, "This is Texas" announcing a counter-protest rally.

Hint: lots of camo, Trump supporters and the bearing of arms.
