San Antonio Becomes More Liberal

[TX OMFS]

I figured I'd post here instead of the politics thread since it's a local issue. What is going on with our new mayor and city council? These guys are taking us hard left as fast as they can. The first thing they do is to pass a resolution supporting the Paris climate change agreement? Are you kidding me? That is the top priority? I recently moved out into the county. I can't wait for the County Commissioners to follow suit. Maybe they can tax cow farts.

Now there's discussion of permanently painting some crosswalks a rainbow color to show LGBTXZY support. Wut is wrong with us?

Oh, and Julian Castro has worked his way back into SA power through his buddy Ron Nimrod.

San Antone is well on its way to out liberaling Austin. Maybe the 2 cities are having a race?

I didn't read the whole article, but it seems to me we now have a clear path (ahem!) to demand crosswalks with pictures of cow patties (or real ones) and any other redneck symbol appropriate!

I want a MOLON LABE or AR-15 crosswalk!

How ridiculous. It already has tire tracks. It won't take long for somebody to do a burn out all the way across.

That's why we don't paint political stuff in the road.

I thought this was about SA.
I just now clicked the link, it says those Rainbow crosswalks are in Houston??

That site is main stream news. Connected to BBC and NPR. Beware.

Yeah, serves as SA's model. That link is about SA.

Nope. Nothing to correct. Just pointing out its a democrat political advertisement. Same old same.

Whats wrong with the rainbow crosswalks? SA is just jealous of Houston, which has an intersection like that. Its actually really cool, like if the neighborhood was suddenly part of Sesame Street.

More importantly, do you have still have a larger population than the aquifer can support (ie you're running out of water) ? If so, thats what I would be worried about if I were you.

They use taxpayer money and resources when there are more important things to worry about. I'd like the city council and mayor to pay attention to more pressing issues than feely good drawings on the street and holding hands with Parisian climate crazies.

Until we resolve some of our more pressing issues I really don't want to spending money on this kind of crap.

typical for a big city...

 

[easy rider]

Let me check. Texas I-35 corridor? Yep, nough said.

 

[oohrah]

I hope you bought more than 10 acres., then you don't have to worry about your county commissioners.

Houston's was private. I agree if SA has to pay more for it, but if it too was private, would you care?

Leaving next month, out of city and county. That was the plan for a while now however the new mayor and council make it a great time to be doing it.
