Sunday morning a convicted felon posed as a ride share driver and kidnapped a couple at gunpoint. He took the woman to his home where a rape may have taken place. He is already out of custody.

You used Austin as a testing ground for your extreme policies as a council member and the city is still dealing with it.

Unfortunate news. We need less rag publications that think it's a good idea to promote and put someone like Casar on their cover.

This is way out of your purview, please focus on issues in Austin.

You should have serious concerns about the violent crime, thefts, and rapes happening in and near your district but you've said nothing about those issues. This was the right move made by Mayor Watson.

You should be more concerned about the criminals and not the police in the city.

When there's not a police presence it emboldens criminals which makes people feel unsafe. Walked around downtown lately? Many homeless people, some are mentally ill or drug addicted, and bad actors that support their habits. 2 violent rapes, car jackings, burglaries, etc. lately.

APD couldn't handle the crime in the city and has 280 or so vacant positions. People being put on hold with 911 and having to wait hours for an officer to show up is unacceptable, something had to be done. This is a good move by the mayor.

Want to fight crime? Arrest criminals and don't let them out.
