Austin has an opportunity to vote out Soros backed DA Jose Garza with a credible Democrat challenger, Jeremy Sylestine. Republican candidate Daniel Betts is running unopposed in the Republican primary.

Hopefully, enough sane voters will pick Sylestine over Garza in the Democrat primary.

A quick summary can be found at a KVUE story:
Candidates for Travis County DA participate in forum

The longer forum is interesting to hear both candidates detailing Garza's lenient policies towards criminals and attacks on police officers.



Get out and early vote through March 1st or on election day, March 5th.

It is arguable that Travis county conservatives should vote in all the Dem primaries and contribute to the individual campaigns of the most conservative or moderate Dem candidate that can plausibly win, as the alternative right now is a leftist radical ideological lunatic in many cases, if the Dem activists remain the largest influence in their own primary process.

Other than the contested HD19 race between Troxclair and Biedermann, there's not much going on in the Travis County Republican primary.

Of course, if you are interested in attending the Precinct Conventions on March 9th which feeds into the Senatorial District and State Conventions, you can't vote in the other party's primary.

In the Democrat primary, it would also allow you another chance to vote against Biden and Doggett(CD37).

I will be **proudly** voting for Garza. Garza has been an awesome DA for Travis county. He holds cops accountable for their crimes, doesn't waste taxpayer dollars imprisoning people for simple drug possession, treats kids like kids, and is fair in his dealings.

If you're concerned about a tyrannical, over-powerful government, then you should want more DAs like Garza.

Garza has been a train wreck and most of the cops he goes after aren't convicted because it's political pandering to people like you. The fairy tale world you live in must be nice...I live near downtown.

What about criminals, does he hold them accountable for their crimes? Because that's what his actual job is.

They often aren't convicted because the American public is full of bootlickers.

The cops are not our friends. They are not our allies. They have the power to take away our freedom and our lives. Obviously not all cops are bad, but enough are to where we shouldn't blindly trust and support them.

His job is to represent the people of Travis County, not to blindly go for the highest possible amount of sentences/convictions.

The "tough on crime" approach doesn't work. That's been proven time and time again. It doesn't reduce crimes, and it certainly doesn't do anything to help victims. It's time to try something different, and I fully support taking more of a restorative justice approach.

But if you want to talk about holding criminals accountable, let's talk about Abbott trying to pardon Daniel Perry, who was convicted by Garza's office after he murdered a Black Lives Matter protester in cold blood. It's Republicans like Abbott who are letting violent criminals off the hook, yet I don't hear a peep about that from y'all.

The Garza approach resulted in a record year for homicides in 2021. I'm sure all the victims families enjoy you taking pride in Garza's "success". So much to celebrate.

Thanks to the lunatic leftists like above, Texas taxpayers got to pick up the bill for returning some sanity to Austin by sending in the DPS to crack down on violent crime. Pylon probably credits DPS' success to Garza's open the jails policies.

no reason not to adopt their tactics when it comes to primaries - particularly in this case if it means getting a soros backed DA of the ballot

Here's one of Garza's success stories from December that people like Pylon Cam can be proud of

Quote:

Hilario Chavez Adrian, 56, the man arrested by Austin Police and charged with murder after a homicide Sunday on Congress Avenue, was previously released on a $1 bond for another violent crime, according to online court records.

Those records show a charge of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon from April of this year, and that in August the bond was modified from $40,000 to $1.

Released on personal recognizance, commits Austin's first 2024 murder

This guy was a felon released with no bail for his SECOND unlawful carrying of firearm charge. I thought Pylon wanted to crack down on gun crimes. Probably not for criminals I guess, just law abiding conservatives. Another reason to "proudly" vote for your soft on crime hero!

Quote:

Police say Martin Rodriguez was out of jail on bond when he fatally shot his girlfriend, 19-year-old Naomi Davis, before turning the gun on himself.

Police say he was arrested on December 1, 2023, for carrying a weapon unlawfully for the second time with a previous felony conviction in Travis County. He posted a personal recognizance bond and was released on December 15th.

Not full time, no. My parents live in Austin, and I stay with them while I'm in town, but I'm a senior here at A&M.

Once I graduate, though, I'm absolutely considering getting my own place in Austin. It's a great city.

Daniel Perry shot an armed man who was directly threatening him. Of course you'd side with the mob. And how would you know anything about tough on crime? That is non-existent in blue cities from coast-to-coast. That's why they are all dangerous **** holes.

Those stories are unfortunate, but I believe that there needs to be an incredibly high bar for the state to be able to hold people in jail who have not yet been convicted of the crime do which they are accused. Innocent until proven guilty has to matter.

I'd rather err on the side of risking letting some criminals go free than allow the state to punish innocent people. After all, it's easier to defend yourself against one criminal than it would be to defend yourself from government tyranny.

The evidence proved beyond a reasonable doubt that Foster was as not threatening Perry.

Perry was the aggressor throughout that entire interaction - Foster was simply exercising his first amendment right to protest and his second amendment right to open carry.

Interesting. An incredibly high bar is needed to hold a previously convicted felon who has been arrested for his second "unlawful carrying" offense? You are an unserious clown. All your BS crocodile tears over the Kansas City shooting are comical in light of this post. You just want to disarm conservatives and let criminals roam freely.

No high bar needed to strip 2nd Amendment rights, amirite?

Defend this, college boy:

A man lured a 13 year old girl to his apartment and gang raped her with others; Garza reduced the man's charge from Aggravated Sexual Assault of a Child to "Unlawful Restraint." He received a prison sentence of just two years.

Richard Williams brutally raped his ex-girlfriend at knifepoint for two hours while strangling and beating her. Garza cut a deferred adjudication plea deal with Williams that would allow him to be released after just 90 days in prison and that could allow him to avoid having the offense on his record at all.

In 2021, Garza released a bail reform plan that explicitly included releasing people on bail for just $1. Since then, Travis County has been plagued by crimes committed by people out on bonds:

Garza let Santos Celso-Flores, who was awaiting trial for participating in the gang rape of 13-year-old girl, out on a $40 bond. While out on bond, Celso-Flores molested two more young girls.

Hilario Adrian's bond was lowered to just $1 after Garza failed to bring his aggravated assault case to a grand jury in time. Shortly after his release, he stabbed and stabbed murdered a man in downtown Austin.

Garza released Dedreuain Reese, who had been charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon for pistol-whipping a woman, on a personal recognizance bond. Just weeks after he was released on bond, Reese committed a murder at the same house where he pistol whipped the woman.
