re: ‘God help us all’: Police union chief says Austin on ‘brink of disaster’ due to ‘free-fall

I am ready for our social workers to be on the front line. Imagine how much more cities like SF and Austin will thrive when social workers clean up violent crime.

The solution is a simple one. When you don’t have enough officers to cover all sections, leave the sections where the city council and the political machine are uncovered. And let the white supremacists know when those sections aren’t covered.

Yep, let them fail.

I am more than happy to save money while letting progressive urban areas die.

When I moved to Austin for college almost two decades ago, it was one of the cleanest and safest big cities I've ever been to. So much has changed since then.

Pretty similar to 20 years ago. I couldn't find much data after the post-Covid jump in crime everywhere experienced 2020-2022, but I imagine it's back down to levels when you moved there initially.

Also, Austin is still one of the safest big cities in the US

This, and the rest of what you’re referencing, are sort of the epitome of playing liberal. Place didn’t seem to go full blown wacko on all fronts till they started embracing/getting overtaken by a more West Coast mindset, but I suppose you could argue that mindset didn’t go all in full blown wacko till rather recently either.

I love Slacker, though.

I dunno man. Maybe my POV was slanted due to only experiencing it from the artist POV via my sister and her friends, but it was incredibly leftist. One summer we stayed at her place and it didn't even have A/C

They literally had a woman running for office recently, that went to her precinct to cast a vote for herself and wouldn’t you know, unbeknownst to her she already voted.

It’s disgusting that people like you think it’s a tinfoil hat, when it’s happening at every turn.

Did Joe get 81 million legal votes? I want you to answer this so I know just how dumb the person I’m engaging with, is.

Yeah, fraud happens every election.

It always has. On both sides.

You guys think it's new, because you have been led to believe that by the people who do your thinking for you. It's not.

No. He got some, but probably more people voted Not Trump. When you add both together, I think that made up almost 81 million.

But that's not what you are really asking. You're asking whether I think there was fraud, and you're assuming that the fraud was massive.

Of course there was fraud. There always is. In this particular case the fraud was probably enough to move the needle and tip the election. But it didn't need to be massive in order for that to happen, and I don't think it was.

In this particular election the margin was razor thin. Remember how Trump "flipped" Wisconsin and Pennsylvania and won Michigan by a tiny margin in 2016?

Well, really he didn't. Clinton lost those states, Trump didn't win them. And by that what I mean is that Jill Stein ended up getting roughly twice the 3rd party vote in those states that one would typically expect—around 3% of the vote instead of 1-1.5%.

That was the difference. And we're not talking about millions of votes, we're talking about thousands. A tiny margin. Trump's margin of victory was literally less than the number of 3rd party votes cast.

Democrats of course noticed that, so they made sure of a couple of things. It's a fact that they maneuvered to keep the Green Party off the ballot in 2020 in Wisconsin and Pennsylvania. It's also my belief that they took advantage of the COVID situation and mail in ballots to manufacture enough fake ones to ensure victory between both strategies.

But that didn't require massive fraud, only very strategic fraud, and the circumstances were such that it worked.

But again, this isn't the first time that a national election has been rigged...even a POTUS election. JFK's election was most likely stolen in 1960, for example. Here's a whole book about stolen American elections: LINK ;

The problem isn't the fact of election fraud. The problem is that idiot populists like yourself are so ignorant that you think it's new, that it's evidence of the "Deep State" controlling humanity through a cabal of Jewish Illuminati Reptiles or some other such nonsense instead of simply something that has always happened throughout human history, and that we need to burn down our entire system because of it (like you could ever completely stop it). That's how someone like Tucker Carlson is getting rich at your low IQ expense.

My conservative estimate is that I have roughly 30 IQ points on you. I could be wrong. It could be more.

They won't.

Like Californians (where, not ironically, a lot of Austin residents came from), those who can afford to do so will leave for more safe, conservative areas. And then they'll vote to turn those new areas into liberal shite holes.

These people are a rapidly spreading cancer. And conservatives are "domestic terrorists" .

Austin finna be American Mogadishu II, right behind Minneapolis.
