There are hotbeds of progressives in the Lone Star State and some libs in major cities there are in positions of power. In spite of the first Ammendment one would think these people would couch their words better so as not to antagonize the public. But then again, it's nice to know who you can and cannot trust. “The one mistake he made was he came to the Austin police station and we were able to take him out pretty quickly,” Acevedo also said, describing McQuilliams, a convicted felon, as a “homegrown, American extremist” and “terrorist.” But pro-gun advocates — especially any living in Austin — will likely feel uneasy about the police chief linking a disturbed individual like McQuilliams to “gun enthusiasts” and advising residents to report them as potentially dangerous." www.theblaze.com/stories/2014/12/04/austin-police-chiefs-remarks-about-gun-enthusiasts-will-likely-have-some-gun-owners-a-little-on-edge/

Austin is regarded by many as the embarrassing liberal step child of the state. A bunch of dyed in the wool Texans should move in there and turn the hippies out.

Austin is regarded by many as the embarrassing liberal step child of the state. A bunch of dyed in the wool Texans should move in there and turn the hippies out. As is Houston, San Antonio and Dallas. Those four cities are 5.7 million people roughly. Their metropolitan areas are over 15 million people. Population of Texas is 27 million people. There are over 13 million registered voters in Texas. Only 3.2 million people are listed as non-metropolitan. And therein lies the problem. Nobody pays attention to sparsely populated areas. (Kansas Nebraska North and South Dakota Wyoming Montana and Idaho). That's why the electoral college is important. Without it, no national politician would ever set foot in those states. Not worth it? Ask ALGORE! If only he had carried the 8 electoral votes of his home state of Tennessee.

Funny thing I noticed. The article said the shooter was a convicted felon. I thought it was against the law for felons to have firearms. So why is it that legal "gun enthusiasts " are the problem? Isn't it another case of a bad actor continuing bad behavior. Someone needs to straighten out this "politically correct" twerp. You don't shoot the cow because a fox is in the hen house and you can't catch him!

Typical LIBERAL response that goes along with the "turn in your neighbor" theme.
I agree "the one mistake he made" was going to the Austin Police station. Had he not gone there he would probably have shot a couple hundred more rounds since all the liberal Austin cops were huddled at the station waiting for him to run out of ammo.
I have absolutely no use whatsoever for Austin law enforcement management. They play politics and that is how most of them acquired the positions they are in. Same could be said for San Antonio and probably Houston too.
