Mayor Steve Adler’s Austin is still getting worse. He led the explosion of homeless camping citywide and the defunding of police.
Police are leaving in droves, crime is spiking hard, and homeless camping has spread serious blight all over the city. Now that blight is concentrating downtown, thanks to another of Adler’s addle-brained decisions.
If you walk or drive around city hall in Austin, Texas, now, you’ll see a new tent city. It sprung up after voters in the city overwhelmingly agreed to reinstate the ban on camping on public land on May 1.
Even when camping was legal everywhere else, it was still banned at city hall. Adler and the then-unanimous Democrat city council took care of itself that way, while allowing the rest of the city to become a trash heap and a disease and fire hazard.
Now, because the voters have spoken, the ban is being phased back in citywide.
But city hall is occupied. A tent city with its own machete-wielding “security” squats on space on which it has always been illegal to camp.
Mayor Steve Adler is doing nothing about it.
Last week, PJM reported on an incident that happened outside city hall when Councilmember Mackenzie Kelly was trying to speak to media. Kelly was harassed by an activist who repeatedly shouted profanities at her.
Since then, Kelly has been harassed repeatedly. In one case, the harassers carried weapons.

Occupy is back. Truth is it never left.
Austin Mayor “Adolf” Adler and his kakistocracy are trying to outdo Portland, Seattle, and Minneapolistan combined.
I just remember someone calling the Occupy Wall Street dirt bags the “Occupoopers”.
Austin used to be pretty good, now it is pretty terrible. I lived there off and on from 1989 - 2007, by the time we left, it was good riddance.
When the US is in total chaos the Democrats will want to step in a rebuild in in Their Image
Occupy is back. Truth is it never left.
A funny story: Back in January of 2020 I asked my wife, “What ever happened to Black Lives Matter? You never hear about them any more.”
And here we are.
I’ve seen famous musicians moving out of Austin. They say it no longer is the same city.
New Austin resembles Portland or Seattle in some ways.
Austin, TX and the democRAT policies: Turning another once great American city into a third-world shit hole.
Truth is it never left.
More to the point, the broader Communist movement has never left, and, in fact, is stronger than it ever was.
The inevitable result of an ultra-liberal administration. dems allowed last year’s occupations and gave them moral and material support. Plus they didn’t throw the criminals in jail. So there are more this year and will be anywhere that doesn’t mow down violent rioters as soon as the first firebomb is thrown.
Meh, play stupid game, win stupid prizes.
Where are the Texas Rangers?
Idiot kids playing tough-guy, nothing more.

Where are the Texas Rangers?
*******
Not doing good. 22 & 28 so far this season
Texas was warned about letting the California people in.
“Where are the Texas Rangers?”
Probably wondering why they didn’t arrest the Houston Astros for stealing World Series rings.
The good news from this is that the rest of Central Texas is going hard conservative as they watch the police leave and the place turn to s**t. More and more conservatives are showing up to neighborhood meetings, school board meetings, even to the Republican primaries (Virginia). So Austin’s pain might save the great state of Texas.
