Yes, demonrats from the mayor on down to the dogcatcher. It was the idiot mayor who made the ruling allowing the homeless to camp out in front of anyone’s and any business’ front door. Gov. Abbott is angry about it and is trying to put a stop to it but don’t know if he has much say in city stuff.

Some people are worried about diseases they carry. Also, the poo and general filth which will bring rodents. Austin is the San Francisco of the South.

Actually, no, not at all. Austin is the a$$h*le of the country. Despite the stereotypes of San Francisco, there are only some areas that are messed up. Much of the city is rich, beautiful, having scenic views and many upscale neighborhoods with trendy restaurants, stores and museums, beaches, trails, lakes and gardens. The crappy areas are limited to a few downtown neighborhoods.

Austin is more like Berkeley California. Ugly, a bunch of young bums and a few strips of mediocre stores and bars. I've been to Austin many times, and there is pretty much nothing there, similar to Berkeley with a college campus and young students wandering around. Austin is a wannabe town, and nothing more.
