After the shooting in Austin last week, our dear police chief has come up with a plan to curb future shootings, namely … tell the cops about your friends or family members who love guns. Especially if they ‘hate’ anyone. Uh, okay.

Sounds like Brakken's Enemies Foreign and Domestic is getting more prophetic daily.

Then what?

Did he make this announcement after he had all the policemen turn in their guns?

If not he is a hypocrite!

By the way....have all the criminals in Austin stopped using guns? Have they PROMISED not to ever use a gun EVER?

If not, this low IQ Socialist cop should buy some brains at the butcher and insert them into his head....maybe he will be able to think better.

It’s amazing that he even has the power of speech with the brain power of a 40 year old D cell that’s been sitting on the shelf...

“Folks, let me tell you what keeps me up at night, it’s these guys. It’s these homegrown extremists that are lone wolves, that are mad at the world, that are angry. And that’s why it’s important for us as Americans to know our neighbors, know our families. Tell somebody. If you know somebody that’s acting with a lot of hatred towards a particular group especially if you know somebody who’s a gun enthusiast or they’re armed with this type of fire arms and they’re showing any type of propensity for hatred, doesn’t mean that we’re going to go and take them to jail, but we might want to vet these people. He may well be alive today had we had the opportunity to do that.”

Where have we seen a program like this before? In Nazi Germany the government encouraged people to identify Jews in their neighborhood...millions died. In Stalin's Soviet Union citizens were encouraged to turn in the names of neighbors and family members who might be “enemies of the State”...millions died. Lesson learned? Evidently not, in Austin obviously not.

Hitler signed a Gun Control Act back in 1938.

Tell the Police Chief that we’re not in Germany and it’s not 1938.

I know a guy named Acevedo in Austin and he carries a gun. He HATES a lot of people - gun owners, conservatives . . .

So do they have a jail big enough to fit most of the entire population of Texas?

Amen to that. Those who survived the winter at Valley Forge are spinning in their graves and cursing us and justifiably so.

In case anybody didn’t know, we imported Acevedo from Los Angeles. Heard it was real easy to take him off their hands.

Austin is the one thing in Texas that Texans aren’t proud of.

No kidding. Travis was the ONLY county in Texas that didn't vote "for" our marriage amendment.

If you know any liberals in Austin be sure to report them. Anonymously , of course. It’s called fighting fire with fire.

Austin SWAT will get much practice with false assertions.
