Congressman Clay Higgins Posts Strong Message to Potential Protesters in Lafayette
With word that an armed militia could be on their way to Lafayette to protest the shooting of Trayford Pellerin, Congressman Clay Higgins had this to say.
Higgins, who was once part of the St. Landry Parish Sheriff's Department, warned that if armed protesters showed up in Louisiana, they should, "Have their affairs in order."
The Louisiana congressman would go on to say in his social media post, "We don’t want to see your worthless ass nor do we want to make your Mothers cry."
UPDATE: The original post has either been deleted by Higgins or removed by the social media platform. Here is the screengrab.

Higgins is now saying that he DID NOT delete his original post. Here's what the U.S. Congressman just posted
