In the wake of California violence, Texas National Guard will be on hand for the downtown event. Organizers say they expect things to be peaceful.
In a press conference earlier Wednesday, San Antonio officials said they were not given any heads up about who would be coming, when, where or why.
People in San Antonio planned a demonstration on Saturday to condemn President Trump’s military parade in Washington D.C., which is meant in part to mark the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Army. The “No-Kings Nationwide Day of Defiance” protest is scheduled to begin at 5 p.m. at Travis Park.
