As we reported earlier on Tuesday, a jury in Texas found Karmelo Anthony guilty of the murder of Austin Metcalf at a high school track meet in April of 2025. Dozens of people have gathered in front of the courthouse this week to show their support for Anthony, and police were on hand to keep control of the crowd.
Here is more of the scene outside the courthouse since the verdict was announced. Not surprisingly, the court, the state, and the country were accused of being racist. After all, Anthony only used the knife one time … to murder somebody. (Language warning)

“THIS IS A WAR”

They’re calling for blacks to handle white people EXACTLY like Karmelo

The post continues:
… like this occur, it's SELF-DEFENSE!”
“You put your hand on me and see how I respond. Beat your MOTHERF—KING ASS!”
“That young boy, he was DEFENDING his godd*mn self!”
Put your hand on me and see how I respond … she sounds just like Anthony, who, after being told around 15 times to go back to his own school's tent, said, "Touch me and find out" while he fished his knife out of his backpack—the knife he'd brought to a track meet.

Here he is screaming in the face of a white man in an attempt to harass and intimidate him outside of the Karmelo Anthony trial.
Truly insane people. pic.twitter.com/BttZjBQFnI
Bless that man because they were absolutely unhinged with him. Deranged entitlement.

It looks like we're just going to get some intimidating hopping rather than a riot.
