You have always ignored the fact that many of the criminals interacting with APD don't live (vote) in Austin.

The statement that only the city manager can fire him is misinformation that meant to place another false image of public official perceived untouchable status. I suggest that the city issue a directive to the city manager directing that he remove Manley, if he refuses, then he, the city manager, must be removed.<br /><br />Second, the USSC has ruled that persons alleging civil service protection can be indefinitely suspended.<br /><br />Third, Manley can be subjected to impeachment: Texas Constitution, Art XV, Sec 5: states that all officers against whom articles of impeachment may be preferred shall be suspended from the exercise of the duties of their office, without pay, during the pendency of such impeachment.

And actually, I think it's a perfect time to replace the chief, especially under these circumstances. Anyone who takes the job will know coming in that the expectation is they will do things much differently. That may not be what you want, but judging from the outpouring at city council this week, it's what most of the community would prefer.Gritsforbreakfasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10152152869466958902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-67924840451633926342020-06-06T10:22:23.657-05:002020-06-06T10:22:23.657-05:00Pigs make tasty breakfast foods Pigs make tasty breakfast foods Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-61390924326492933252020-06-06T08:48:51.004-05:002020-06-06T08:48:51.004-05:00Rob you are puro puerco pedoRob you are puro puerco pedoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8597101.post-61834333876934359242020-06-06T08:09:13.398-05:002020-06-06T08:09:13.398-05:00What a horrible time to ask The Chief to resign.. ...What a horrible time to ask The Chief to resign.. if you were making $250K would you resign? no. First I would talk to the rank and file at the police dept to see if he is liked. 2nd Do you think that just throwing him back in the pile and hiring another chief will make everything better? This city council wants to let the homeless run free and doesn't want police to be aggressive with protesters. It's unfortunate that someone got hit in the eye but accidents do happen. If you can't take the heat get out of the kitchen. Protests are not for pregnant women, underaged kids, 75yo men or people with health issues.
