Political Violence Brewing in Small Texas Town of La Marque [1]

The warning signs of political violence are there in the small town of La Marque Texas, population about 20,000.

And they all point to La Marque City Councilman Joesph Lowry. Lowry has a history of issues documented in “Top Ten Reasons to Recall La Marque Council Member Joseph Lowry” (actually 20 reasons) including being censured twice, being sued by multiple citizens for harassment, and having a Domestic Violence Protective Order against him. Lowry has spent his short time on Council spewing unsubstantiated claims of corruption by City Council Members on his “news” source, Lowry News Network. He believes he is a journalist. He isn’t. He has a Facebook page that has been removed by Facebook multiple times.

Last Friday La Marque City Councilwoman Kim Yancy held a press conference to address the harassment of citizens of La Marque and surrounding cities of Texas City and Dickinson by Lowry. She warned about political violence in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s murder. On que Lowry arrived spewing his unfounded allegations of illegal activity as he has been doing for years. The video provided by Harvey Freeboard can be viewed here. At 10:30 the press conference starts. At 24:00 Lowry begins his disruption. At 26:34 Lowry is stared down by Mr. Beard.

Lowry is an elected official yet acts like a character from South Park. During the event one of his targets of harrassment towered over his fat ass challenging his continuous lies causing Lowry to sweat like a pig and retreat to his mini van to call his police friends for help. La Marque Police came and questioned those who were under attack first.

Yancy was right concerning the political violence in La Marque and blaming those who tolerate it, support it, and laugh about it. She questioned why law enforcement has refused to address the multiple complaints against Lowry. Lowry enjoys harassing people. He enjoys the division he creates. He revels in it. He blogs about it on his Lousy News Network as if he is a journalist.

The La Marque police, the Galveston Sheriff, and the DA have all refused to take action. They must get off their racist, lazy asses and stop this harassment before they are held accountable for any political violence.

The signs are there. Do something or shut the hell up about “stopping political violence”.
