I might not last very long or be very effective but I'll be a real pain in the ass for a minute!

Pretty good article.

I wonder what the final take in of firearms were for the APD?  Seems the line was rather decent in size whenever the camera showed them in the background.

It was obvious that the Chief wasn't a fan of the filming crew......LOL

Austin PD, like Texas' Dept of Public Safety, has a history of being anti RKBA.  Both fought changing the law and allowing CCW back in 1995 and continue to voice displeasure every time the Legislature brings up a pro-gun bill.  But so does SAPD where I am.  :facepalm:

Art Acevedo, the current austin police chief, is a transplant from my home state, and a *expletive deleted*bag of the highest order

I have reached a conclusion regarding every member of this forum.
I no longer respect any of you. I hope the following offends you as much as this thread has offended me:
You are all awful people. I mean this *expletive deleted*ing seriously.

The Chief of Police ran like a little girl from a Ron Paul voter. =D

Sir Robin Police=> :police:
I do not smoke pot, wear Wookie suits, live in my mom's basement, collect unemployment checks or eat Cheetoes, therefore I am not a Ron Paul voter.

Local network affiliate news stations made mention of the citizen intervention, and they actually did so in a neutral manner. (No video, though.)
