2020-07-03 | Houston GOP powerbroker asked governor to instruct the National Guard to 'shoot to kill' rioters | TheHill

'Several governors called up the National Guard in response to protests over Floyd’s death, most of which remained peaceful. '

'Greg Abbott (R) to allow the National Guard to “shoot to kill” protesters who were demonstrating against police brutality and systemic racism after the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis in May. '

'"I want to make sure that he has National Guard down here and they have the order to shoot to kill if any of these son-of-a-bitch people start rioting like they have in Dallas, start tearing down businesses — shoot to kill the son of a bitches. ', "Hotze is a well-known conservative soldier in the culture wars, challenging Abbott's statewide mask mandate, fighting against same-sex marriage and more."

'The voicemail, which The Tribune obtained through a public information request, was sent on the weekend of June 6, days after Abbott activated the National Guard in response to the protests, some of which had turned violent. '
