Other homeless clean up today - https://www.kxan.com/news/local/austin/austin-police-to-start-cleanup-outside-the-arch/

The mayor's liberal decree that homeless can camp out anywhere they wish has backfired bigly, lol.

There was an interview this morning with one homeless guy who stated homeless folk are moving to Austin because they can pitch their tents anywhere since the mayor declared everything “public”. He laughed saying Austin has great weather, they can camp anywhere and people give them money and food so there’s nowhere any better.

““I’ll just disappear,” he said. “That’s what they want us to do, be out of their site.””

It is their ‘site’, as it’s state property, but I doubt that was the meaning that either the ILLITERATE reporter, or the homeless frontman meant by that term.

homeless people had started an illegal bonfire underneath one of the underpasses


Hmm, fire under an overpass, perhaps Austin can ask Atlanta about how that works out.

“Temperatures overnight dipped down to 54 degrees.”

Note the heart-string tug here, by the media. The temperatures the two nights prior were in the 30s. 54 at night this time of year is EXACTLY normal.

Will Wynn managed to house 4,000+ Katrina refugees here in 2005. Mayor Adlebrain and the rest of the COA council can't (or rather, won't) lift a finger to help with the issue that they have exacerbated back in June.

The incompetence of this city council is epic, and the fact that Adlebrain's 30 year-old toady (Casar) advises him on everything is problematic. Especially since the toady has lived here for 3 whole years and hasn't a clue how the real world works.

Umm, when I’ve been in the Southwest, and it hits 54 degrees, people are still walking around in shorts. Maybe they throw a hoodie on.
