Late last night, there was talk about a “for sale” sign in the neighborhood that wasn’t supposed to be there but that story has also been dropped.
Lots of radical libs in uber lib sanctuary Austin. Twenty years ago, we were walking across UT campus and were harassed by middle eastern types who were protesting, hollering and being generally nasty and in your face scary. Ten years ago, you only saw Asian students in the music building and non speaking English. Then there was Prof. Pianka (well, all leftish wackadoodle profs as far as the eye can see) who taught his students how great it’d be to let loose Ebola to wipe out 90% of the population and that was before the Ebola scare. A couple years ago, it was Cocks Not Glocks with students protesting on campus carry with giant sex toys. Daughter’s dorm mate was an illegal on a full ride scholarship. No, it wasn’t my idea for daughter to go to UT and she didn’t last long there. UT is the Berkeley of the South.
The police chief is asking for anyone with video cameras on their houses. One would have thought they’d have gone full force gathering those for 3 weeks ago along with nearby street and store cameras. Surely they must have videos and fingerprints by now. This last bomb was right by a major road that has cameras.
Don’t know if foreign students are vetted enough to bother with fingerprints but TX drivers licenses and renewals require a thumbprint and Wells Fargo Bank takes prints if you want to cash a check. Bet other institutions take fingerprints, too, and ships them off to three letter gov agencies.
Austin is very much like old Russia in that you can’t just walk into an office without having to go through security or be escorted. Office building lobbies are doing away with directories so you have no idea what floor someone is on and that is if they allow you on the elevator. It’s turned into big brother and heil, Hitler.
The other side of the street looks well treed/shrubbed. It would have been extremely difficult to observe this vehicle unless you heard it drive up.
Where is nosey Nelly when you need her?
