Austin, Tx. Just a little slice of California. They moved here and took Austin over and bring all the fuck with them. | |||

From the Fox news article: "An Austin City Council member was reportedly on hold with 911 for 28 minutes after calling about the street racing takover." Gee, that's a shame | |||

If you see me running try to keep up |
A real Texan would have driven his dually, diesel F350 right over those cars in that intersection. I was waiting to see that but then I remembered how un-Texas like Austin is. | |||

One reason why there is a shortage of 911 operators and police is the district attorney. Austin is located in Travis County, and surprise surprise surprise they have a woke Soros funded District attorney. If the police show up and arrest street racers, it's a lose lose situation: Ego is the anesthesia that deadens the pain of stupidity DISCLAIMER: These are the author's own personal views and do not represent the views of the author's employer. | |||

I live in Pflugerville, which is a suburb just north of Austin. The whole Austin area and even around where I live is a complete liberal mess. Full of people who moved from California. So many posts on Nextdoor are unbelievable like they are freaking out about gunfire during dove season and then when they hear there is a dove season, they cry about dying animals and it should be banned. Don’t move to Texas if you don’t like guns, hunting, freedom, etc! Thank goodness I don’t depend on Austin Police for a response. My local police are pretty good. People get what they ask for. They hate the police, but then cry when they don’t get the response they want. Buy a gun…..oh….sorry…..guns are scary to them. NRA Benefactor Life Member | |||

Austin is the only city I have ever been placed on hold for a 911 call. It has happened many times. Last time was when I was behind a severely drunk guy swerving across multiple lanes of traffic almost hitting people. I was on hold for 10 minutes while I followed him. As soon as they answered, he had figured out I was following him and threw all of his beers out and tried ramming me. I explained what was going on and got admonished by 911 for following him and they told me to pull over into a parking lot with him to wait for an officer. I told them how much they suck, that I was leaving, and this was on them if he killed somebody. NRA Benefactor Life Member | |||

I'm in a similar position except it's Houston and I live in the county north. Houston is in a similar mess as Austin with it's woke Soros funded DA, idiot Demonrat mayor, idiot Demonrat County Judge that may be dumber and more corrupt than AOC, police shortage, etc. My county Judge made a FB post about our sheriffs catching a catalytic convertor thief who upon reading the county name on the side of the cruiser asked, "Did I cross into Montgomery County?" and when he heard yes he replied, "Oh shit!" Criminals know very well that our district attorney actually prosecutes criminals. In fact, just last week one of the local law enforcement agencies caught serial burglars and the district attorney charged them with organized crime statutes.

Austin - The stain of Texas. Q | |||

Short. Fat. Bald. Costanzaesque. |
Whenever I need to drive I-35 I just use the Austin bypass. Austin is truly weird. ___________________________ He looked like an accountant or a serial-killer type. Definitely one of the service industries. | |||
|
Do---or do not. There is no try. |
Norm, I thought at least some of the Californians moving to Austweird were somewhat on the conservative side and just haven't made their way to a nearby red county. Is that not the case? | |||

It really is, and it is sad. Austin is a great city, except for its political views. NRA Benefactor Life Member | |||

So far I haven’t found any. I am sure there are some as I hear of some escaping here on the forum, but sadly they are the minority it seems. Texas as a whole is red, but the city of Austin is bright ass blue! For example, Williamson County, County just north of Austin Travis County, is/was one of the most conservative and hard core counties on crime since god knows when. Now, the latest election in Williamson County barely won the Republican vote. Sad. NRA Benefactor Life Member | |||

I NEVER drive I-35 if I don’t have to. One of the worst interstates. For work I can drive on the toll for free and do every time to avoid I-35. NRA Benefactor Life Member | |||

Back in the late 80's into the early 2000's I really enjoyed visiting Austin. Yeah, it was weird and full of hippies, but there were a lot of things to do, good restaurants and some nice scenery, but in the last ten years it just plummeted into a liberal hell hole. It's really sad. No one's life, liberty or property is safe while the legislature is in session.- Mark Twain | |||
