RESIDENT: LAISSEZ FAIR-SNEZHNEVSKY INSTITUTE FOR FORENSIC PSYCHIATRY

zoux posted:

"There are not a lot of black people in Austin" is a completely non controversial statement that literally no one in Austin would disagree with.

Many city leaders constantly lament how Austin drives black people away (black population was 13.5% in 1950) and is always trying to find ways to make Austin more attractive to black people.

have they tried hiring michael steele?

1. Don't be afraid to ask questions. Most would rather have a minute or two to field questions rather than spend half an hour correcting a mistake.
2. Lubricant will make you lubrican.

Actually, the human element is what I focus on the most - issues like fear and perception, as opposed to "These are the facts, it doesn't matter what country A thinks."
