    Defund the Police But Not for Me
    One of the leading liberals who advocated for defunding the police has requested an enhanced police presence around his house. Is there no limit to the hypocrisy these people will engage in??

    A Texas Democrat who was a strong advocate of defunding the Austin police in 2020 was accused of hypocrisy on Tuesday after he requested a police patrol in his neighborhood from the same department.

    Rep. Greg Casar (D-TX) requested the police's assistance through the United States Capitol Police, which forwarded the request to the Austin Police Department, according to Fox News. Casar also sent a letter to the Justice Department last week accusing the Texas police force of racism and discrimination against people with mental health problems.

    "It’s come to our attention that Anti police king of the defund movement in Austin, who only last week called APD an agency with racist practices has requested enhanced patrols around his house for the next week," the Austin Police Retired Officers Association posted on X on Tuesday. "We want everyone in Austin to feel safe, but this seems to us as the height of hypocrisy from the congressman. Maybe he should hire private security like his fellow squad members do. Sure seems like he wants the police in his neighborhood just not yours."

    I did a quick search . Nothing mentioned why he wanted an enhanced police patrol for one week only .

    Next time maybe he can hire private security who carry guns he is also opposed to .
