Austin Goes from Harmlessly Weird to Dangerously Stupid by Legalizing Camping on City Streets

Austin has long been the weird, liberal capital of Texas. The rest of Texas just sort of shrugs and puts up with it. Austin is quirky. Austin is odd. Austin lives in its own little world. Austin is also home to some of the best live music joints anywhere and you have to work pretty hard to find a bad restaurant in the city, so it’s not without its charms. The joke about Austin is that it’s nice because it's so close to Texas (its the capital, a deep blue dot surrounded by a vast red sea). Austin is like that oddball cousin we all have. He’s there. He picks his nose and argues with light posts. But he’s nice and basically no threat to anyone, so whaddyagonnado?

My last residence was in Kentucky before coming to Texas. If a couple needs to raise a family, they should move to where it is safe to raise one. Guys like me in a blue sea will pull for red to confound them.

Looks like they all think the smell of raw sewage running in the gutters is a good thing...

Dallas has a huge Muslim population.
There is even a 2 inch thick separate Yellow Pages phonebook for exclusively Muslim businesses.

As for Austin, there’s an Antifa group there, as well as several communist groups, but so far they’re really lame & tame.

They know they can’t get away with the antics of their Portland & Berkeley comrades.

“Austin is quirky. Austin is odd”

Austin is the a-hole of Texas.
