Police abandoning ‘woke’ Austin, Texas: ‘It’s become a hostile place’
March 4, 2023 | Kevin Haggerty

The damage wrought by the defund the police movement and the installment of George Soros-backed progressive district attorneys has continued to manifest, leaving one Texas city in the throes of a law enforcement crisis, “right there with Portland and Seattle and San Francisco.”

The capital of the Lone Star State was used to facing around 50 retirements per year from the Austin Police Department prior to 2020. Now, not only has that average doubled in the three years since the Black Lives Matter movement overtook the country, there had already been 50 retirements in the first two months of 2023 alone, with dozens more expected by the end of March, according to the Austin Police Retirement System.

Though no specific reason was attributed to any of the retirements, former Lt. Brian Moon who retired last month after 23 years of service with the APD told the New York Post, “We’re right there with Portland and Seattle and San Francisco as being one of those places where if you’re at all conservative or in law enforcement, it’s become a hostile place.”

The police department’s current contract is set to expire at the end of March and the Austin Police Association (APA) was prepared to agree to a new four-year contract when the Austin City Council voted in mid-February in favor of a limited one-year deal.

  • I don't believe in Trump anymore, he's an illusion
Californians flee to Austin and this is the crap you get.
Please, liberals from everywhere go to Austin, many who get their education there stay. I am always amazed at the power attributed to California liberals in Texas while denying their home grown communists. Where did Beto come from, the Castros?
