"LEAKED MEMO: Internal guidelines from DA Jos Garza read like a decriminalization manifesto pulled straight from an activist handbook. Prosecutors are told to avoid jail soften charges and treat criminals like clients. Heres what Garza is directingand what a real DA committed to public safety and the law should be doing instead. ON IMPLICIT BIAS: Our implicit biases about race gender sexual orientation and class may unintentionally affect the evaluation of a case. ADAs should remain mindful of this and should challenge themselves and their assumptions when considering an appropriate sentence."

"AUSTIN TX This Thursday City Council is voting on whether to hand out $17 million in taxpayer money to commission artwork much of it going to out-of-town artists some with openly radical political agendas. One Chicago-based artist for example has created work that openly denigrated the U.S. military and law enforcement. Back in March public pressure worked. After calls and emails from everyday Austinites (including my followers) the Council pulled the vote and was pushed to consider local artists instead. An insider told me that city council members were caught by surprise and panicked. Now"

Now Austin is scrapping the camera program under pressure from local activists including in the city's commissioned group. Austin's Commission on Immigrant Affairs opposes the cameras because they endanger illegal immigrants: The data-sharing structure places immigrant residents especially those who are undocumented at a heightened risk of surveillance detention and deportation for routine activities such as"

"They infer location based on where they get a geofenced hit. This is also true when detectives look at cell tower pings or ask eye witnesses if they spotted a car. Except in latter cases its much more invasive because they have to rule out suspects in a much cruder and less efficient way. You simply dont like technology thats is effective at catching criminals who break laws you dont like. Youve made that clear"
