Regarding the City Manager's support of the current police chief, it is evident that he has a bias and no longer can be effective in an non-bias manner. Additionally, he has no authority to represent the city of Austin. Prior to his appointment as city manager, he was not a Texas resident in violation of state laws.<br /><br />Regarding Local Government Rule 143, for nearly twenty-years, I've held that it is unconstitutional and the Rule gives authority of local governments to create an impermissible law. The Rule does provide a a provision to vacate the law.<br /><br />In 1947, when the Legislators created the 143, it (Legislators) created an ultra virus act in violation of the Texas Constitution. By its creation, the law provided an impermissible fourth form of government.

In America we have civilian control of the military -- the president is Commander-in-Chief, and the Secretary of Defense, at least in theory, should be five years removed from active military service.<br /><br />Why couldn't the same principles apply to leadership of the police? Why couldn't the director of another government agency concerned with public safety, or a social-services nonprofit, or a successful business leader, or a renowned civil-rights lawyer, or a former elected official, etc., etc., run a police department?<br /><br />Shlomo Ramonenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-58087684194302998092020-06-23T18:53:35.689-05:002020-06-23T18:53:35.689-05:00If Austin City Council had both gonads and brains,...If Austin City Council had both gonads and brains, it would fire Manley and replace him with NOBODY.
