There is NOTHING much re important than the safety of the people. I would be out on the street corner with a HUGE sign that said. cUT BACK greedy politicians NOT COpS
Build Badder Better, or is it Build Better Badder, or Build better Bladder, or Build Better Blather, or Build Betcha Busta, who knows what he said.
Just watch, the lefties will create a Committee of Public Safety in which they will install dictatorial powers. Then things REALLY get fun. Idiots.
“2020-21 fiscal year of $4.2 billion”. I live 70 miles north of Austin. I can not for the life of me see how in the hell they can spend so much money!!! Line item veto needs to be the law of the land from local all the way up to Federal.
BE PREPARED to act UNCIVILIZED toward the UNCIVIL. Don’t unnecessarily put yourself in a bad situation.
CIVILIZATION
Civilization is the progress toward a society of privacy. The savage’s whole existence is public, ruled by the laws of his tribe. Civilization is the process of setting man free from men.
The precondition of a civilized society is the barring of physical force from social relationships—thus establishing the principle that if men wish to deal with one another, they may do so only by means of reason: by discussion, persuasion and voluntary, uncoerced agreement.
The necessary consequence of man’s right to life is his right to self-defense. In a civilized society, force may be used only in retaliation and only against those who initiate its use.
Ayn Rand
The FF were very smart revolutionaries...the smartest in world history. They established the preconditions for CIVILIZATION to flourish...1A...2A...etc., etc. The current attacks are asymmetric. They could not foresee everything. Thanks anti-federalists.
Austin police don’t do anything about crime anyway.
Well, they did get the Austin bomber, sort of.
Austin’s message to criminals: Here in Austin its open season on the police - rape rob steal murder just let it all hang out.
Fewer cops will be murdered if there are no cops.One way to improve the statistics
Will there be a guillotine in front of the courthouse?
Fewer CV19 tests=fewer positive results.
But what about Austin Powers?
....we live in one of the nearby counties and almost
every night, in a sort of self-flagellation, we watch
the evening news [sic]... Austin is truly off the rails when
it comes to its police force...just watch the sh**birts who
sit on that sorry-ass city council - they try to out-do
each other when it comes to defunding, and in fact, abolishing Austin’s police force.... we have been here for
several years and have only gone into downtown Austin
once...that was enough...24-hour a day freak show....
I imagine the ‘re-imagining’ of policing will end the first time two ‘social workers’ show up to a ‘mental crisis’ knife-welding zombie and are attacked. Or the first time they show up to a domestic disturbance and instead of arguing with each other, the domestics turn on the responders.
Maybe they can hire some meter-maids, but that’s just above minimum wage, same as psych majors careers. We could make it a felony to attack any of the above, but that would just add to power trips on one side and more prison population on the other.
“...knife-welding zombie...” According to rip van biden that would be an “... UNARMED knife-welding zombie...” Just sayin’.
That’s not their bag, baby!
Texas allows a 10% increase in property taxes each year. They also come up with new fees and taxing districts to tack on more and more and more taxes.
This is how patriots are made...getting mugged larger scale and taking action about it. First you need to make more muggings available. People don’t get active until they get too much.
So sad Texas is turning rancid.
“Democrats benefit heavily from its large cities; Austin, votes Democratic, as do El Paso, Houston, Dallas, San Antonio and the Rio Grande Valley.” one site said.
That’s like CA , NY State and MI where concentrations in corrupt Dem run cities make up for hundreds of miles of decent, law abiding good people in small cities and towns who vote GOP. So the entire states go down the drain.
In a way that’s the mirror image of the 1960s SDS and other leaders who delighted in having innocent suburban students getting shoved into paddy wagons and going to jail overnight. “Radicalizes” them, the leftists said.
And the saying “A conservative is a liberal who just got mugged” is part of your post in spirit.
One I’ve always liked is “Scratch a liberal and find a fascist.” More true than ever before.
