  1. How long before this asshole is back out on the streets? https://www.fox7austin.com/news/attempted-break-in-machete-attack-liberty-hill-texas The man gets up, comes up the stairs, and pulls on the door. "I start running through the house. I lock every door as fast as possible, run upstairs. Luckily, I had a firearm here, so I grabbed my 9mm, unlocked it, ran down as fast as possible," Stevens said. The suspect climbed the fence and got on the upper deck where Stevens confronted him. "Told him he's got to leave or he's going to lose his life, you know? Luckily, after I did that, he dropped the machete," he said. The video then shows the intruder climbing back down, and a gun pointing at him as he walks away. Stevens' wife had called 911 in the meantime, and deputies arrested 43-year-old Jerry Escamilla of Bertram. He is charged with criminal trespassing and failure to identify and is being held on a $10,000 bond.
  2. He wants to represent himself. https://www.kxan.com/news/crime/shooting-spree-suspect-asks-judge-if-he-can-represent-himself/ AUSTIN (KXAN) — Shane James, the suspect in a December 2023 shooting spree that spanned from Bexar County to Austin, killing six people and injuring three others, asked a judge Friday morning if he could represent himself in the case. Following James’ hearing earlier this year, his attorney Russ Hunt said James was receiving psychiatric treatment in jail. Judge Clifford Brown told James he has a right to represent himself, but advised him not to. Regarding the next steps, Brown recommended James receive a mental evaluation before moving forward to determine if he is mentally competent enough to represent himself. Judge Brown said if James did not do that voluntarily, Brown would issue a court-ordered evaluation. James is set to return to court Oct. 10.
  3. My, now graduated, daughters had to deal with this shit. The youngest was chased a few times, once at night on campus and a two other times at night through West Campus. Amazing that new students, especially females, still have to deal with this bullshit. Good luck and may nothing worst than getting scared happens to your kids. https://www.kvue.com/article/news/education/university-of-texas/ut-austin-sorority-recruitment-homeless/269-6016ac7f-4505-4d76-9722-3f1ff17d7e9e On Wednesday, the UT Austin Police Department (UTPD) sent out an advisory saying that with sorority and fraternity recruitment underway, the department has been seeing an increase in incidents with the unhoused population acting inappropriately or suspiciously. SafeHorns, an organization dedicated to advocating for safety in West Campus, also said every year, sorority recruitment tends to bring a lot more unhoused people to the area. “Unfortunately, now that we have a lot of female students coming to participate in recruitment for Greek life, they know and they see the girls walking about,” said Joell McNew, the president of SafeHorns. This year, SafeHorns said starting on Wednesday, they have already been hearing from potential new sorority members – also called PNMs – who say they have witnessed lewd behavior, been harassed and even been chased by unhoused people as they were walking to the sorority houses. “It’s disgusting," McNew said. "It shouldn’t be the norm, and we shouldn’t be desensitized to that." UT sophomore Alexandra Skinner is one of the young women who has already had an experience like this. “We were walking by, and he was across the street, you know, and he just started yelling at us as we were walking by,” Skinner said. “We’re walking alone and stuff, so it’s scary.” The layout of UT’s sorority houses throughout West Campus also presents an extra safety challenge compared to other schools, where all the sorority and fraternity houses are on one street or row. “They are very spread out,” McNew said. “The PNMs, potential new members, [are] navigating their way, trying to find, you know, these different locations and [they] may not be familiar with Austin.” During sorority recruitment, PNMs will get called back to different houses and may have different schedules than their friends or roommates – meaning that many times, they'll have to walk around West Campus alone. As a sophomore, Skinner said she is already familiar with the unhoused population in West Campus, but she does have some concerns about walking around alone late at night. “I do have a house that ends at 9 [p.m.] today, so I’m going to be out late tonight," she said. "So it is something that is a bit of a concern." In its advisory, UTPD said it has added extra officers and West Campus Ambassadors to patrol the area during this time.
  4. This piece of shit set the precedence for attacking people.
  5. This was the basis of their whole platform. Wave the flag and wear camo. They got over 60M people to vote just on that alone. What a country.
  6. West Travis County enters the game https://www.kxan.com/news/local/travis-county/west-travis-county-residents-told-to-stop-irrigation-utility-says-water-tanks-didnt-refill/ West Travis County residents told to stop irrigation, utility says water tanks didn’t refill The West Travis County Public Utility Agency (WTCPUA) said in its low water pressure/no water advisory that overnight irrigation “emptied the storage” and asked for an immediate shut off of irrigation systems. “Due to extremely high irrigation demand, some customers are experiencing low water pressure or no water at their homes,” the advisory said. “Please refrain from irrigation, filling pools and other activities that consume a lot of water and are not strictly necessary throughout the day to give our tanks a chance to recover.” Customers of the PUA were already under Stage 2 restrictions, with watering limited to once per week during limited hours. The PUA initially said it expected the tanks would need the rest of the day to refill, but updated its report at 8 a.m. Friday, warning that “tank levels are continuing to drop.”
  7. Vote. Tell everyone you know to vote. And then shame the fuck out of magats for being the traitorous dipshits that they are. It won't change their minds but we need to stop being nice to idiot traitors.
  8. https://dailyboulder.com/trump-agrees-to-debate-harris-on-fox-news-demands-no-fact-checking/ Biden later bitched about Trump not getting fact checked during the debate. No way Kamala's team agrees to a debate w/out fact checking; otherwise, what's the fucking point of debate when the piece of shit can say whatever the fuck he wants. This is why Trump only wanted to debate on Fox. We'll see if ABC fact checks but I will be surprised as fuck if it doesn't happen.
  9. This dipshit peaked in high school.
  10. Probably for the best that Melania didn't speak. She would've just pirated Michelle's speech again.
  11. Trump will not go on a debate where the network will fact check him. In the Biden debate, he was allowed to spew all kinds of bullshit and was not called out for it. We saw how that turned out with Biden getting the bad reviews from that debate while nothing came of Trump's bullshit lies. I imagine that's why he wants to debate on Fox because they will not fact check his bullshit. There's no way his team allows him to debate a prosecutor whose is well versed in debating while getting called out for this bullshit by the moderator. His team has to want him to lose to allow it.
  12. Supposedly in follow up messages, Angry Staffer said it was supposed to be Beyonce, but it didn't work out.
  13. Jordan finally to have surgery on his wrist.
  14. https://www.kulr8.com/national_news/group-miraculously-survives-helicopter-crash-in-hawaii/video_d99da619-290c-578d-bf10-9eefc1ef8824.html spoiler: They all survived.
  15. its been down for a few days, i think all week.
  16. Maybe it's been discussed upthread so apologies but what happened to texaskayakfisherman.com site?
  17. Video of the ship before it became a submarine. https://streamable.com/dgqloa
  18. They really think their base is beyond stupid. They are right; otherwise, they wouldn't utter complete bullshit.
  19. The RNC had Hulk fucking Hogan speak on the last night. That's who they thought would resonate with their party--a washed up, roided, fake tough guy, performer who reeks of toxic masculinity to inspire stupid jocks who grew up into magats. That says all you need to know about the base. A dipshit speaking to his peers.
  20. SIAP. Serious FUCK YOU if you are voting for this Piece of Shit who tried to overthrow democracy. New Ad coming to a TV near you. I love that no punches are being pulled now and that he's correctly portrayed as the absolute piece of shit that he is.
