This is a day late, but thought it would be of interest.

Commissioners offered Todd a contract last fall, which he signed. Then commissioners decided to open the “discussion” to the public.

I'm not a lawyer, nor do I play one on TV, but this sentence makes it sound as though the Commissioners are trying to renege on the previously agreed-to contract.

Austin gets over 100k in annual revenue from the Saxet Gun Show. Let the fools lose it. Saxet will just move outside of Austin and thrive somewhere else.

The Nazis of Travis County have political power and they intend to wield it. The law be damned. Tell me how any of this would like stopped these left wing lunatics from committing mass murder. Nothing, of course, but it’s not about preventing mass murder, is it?

I need more coffee.

I distinctly read, “Travis County Texas Holding SEXY Gun Show Hostage”...

“It has demanded us to deliver up our arms, which are essential to our defence, the rightful property of freemen, and formidable only to tyrannical governments.”

THE RIGHTFUL PROPERTY OF FREEMEN! Even Texas understood it, so what is up with Austin!

Kinda neat for me. I do not go into Austin unless there might be contempt of court or some such. Hate the traffic. So this gun show could be about 20 miles from me soon or 50 miles looping around Austin to the south. Like the SAXET Texas spelling thing.

It’s Austin. Best to let them breach the contract and move it 50 miles away (outside downtown and suburbs of Austin). There is no way to win as they will simply change the rules and judges/juries are bought and sold there.
