Give 'em a call when someone with military toys break into your house and rapes your daughters and executes your spouse. See how that works out for ya when there's nobody to come to your aid.

Feel free to go to Austin. With your stupidity you won't last more than two hours before some gangbanger kills you.

It truly saddens me to see what Austin has become.
Back in 85 it was a little weird..but in a good way. Now it seems to be full on retarded.
I hate to say it but get rid of the cops in Austin,they live in a bubble far smaller than the west and east coast and it'll bite em in the ass real quick!

Your assumptions are flawed and moronic.

Government union employees would definitely be better. Actually, no competition govt. unions shouldn't exist at all. Personally I think all government employees are overpaid and that includes local and state too.

public safety--hahahhahahahaahhah
police unjustifiably kill about ---? 2, 5? people per year
blacks murder 8 blacks per DAY !!!!!!!!!

.....sounds like this idiot--his city was voted the most dangerous and has one of the highest murder rates--mostly blacks murdering blacks--and he thinks the police make his city not safe!!!!!!! this is one of the dumbest things I've ever heard---and blacks/libs soak it up!!!
so--as I've stated many times, the black self destructive cycle will continue--because they are concentrating on the police--which is not the problem:
