A convoy of vehicles headed to Texas, organized by a group called “Take Our Border Back,” has had a chaotic start, including slashed tires and a stranded participant, according to WIRED.
Organizers of the convoy, one of whom described it as “God’s army,” per Vice, had aspirations of mobilizing tens of thousands of trucks to stop migrants from crossing the Texas-Mexico border into the US.
But despite an influx of donations, plenty of media attention, and a growing social media following, things haven’t gone exactly to plan.
According to WIRED, it all started to go wrong even before the convoy had set off.
Some attendees woke up to find the tires of their cars slashed outside a hotel they’d been staying at, one of the convoy’s live-streamers said, per WIRED.
Looking at this, seems like God is against them.
But I am an Atheist. Maybe God treats his followers like this…for fun?
I need a Deadwood rewatch.
In the middle of that myself. :)
How do you like it?
Seen it about 20 times and it just gets better and better with every watch. :)
It’s the best written TV show I’ve seen. Milch doesn’t get the credit he deserves.
True. I’m still pissed at HBO blowing off a season 4 in the way they did.
My 2 favs are Deadwood and The Wire. Both are just top notch shows.

“God is testing them” is their usual excuse when things don’t go their way.
