ATTN TX Residents!

[Penner]

Old thread, but we (hubs & I) were considering a move to Austin, TX as his work is there. Not so sure now, seems like a bunch of back east tree huggers in Texas now, sadly.
I too remember what Texas was 30-35 years ago, now I'm kinda afraid to live there (would be too much like Chicago where I left in 1992, as it was a h*llhole).
I'm in AZ now for 20 years, it was good back then, but then California tree huggers moved here in the last 10 years too & wrecked it.

All I can say tho, is that AZ game & fish is very friendly & helpful, none of what I read in this thread. Maybe AZ has a better game & fish dept, I dont know (just verbalizing my thoughts & moving dilemma). Thanks for reading.

WOW!! Glad this got bumped to the top. I had never read this thread nor heard of this incident. Looking at the dates, I'm guessing I was enroute home from Texas and not tuned in to media.

How about an update. Has there been resolution, either to this specific incident or the overall relationship between the principals? The physical well-being of the fink??

As an outsider, I have to agree with those who say the "enforcers" are sometimes put in positions of compromise ... following up on petty claims and complaints, etc ... and we should be careful who we hastily throw under the bus. Sounds like the real culprit is the jerk who put a couple hundred people through this just to satisfy a personal grudge. The "cops" may not always enjoy what they have to do in some situations.

But THREE HOURS??? Come on!! A little overzealous, maybe???

I cannot believe that after an hour or so, their squad car still had air in the tires when they returned.
