In a new episode this week, we speak with Nicole Golden, Interim Executive Director of Texas Gun Sense. Texas Gun Sense advocates for common sense, evidence-based policies to reduce gun injuries and deaths. While the organization recognizes the right to own guns, it also believes that laws could be strengthened to include more sensible policies that would better protect the general public – the antithesis of HB 1927 which was passed a year ago. We are also joined by Jim Harrington, retired founder of the Texas Civil Rights Project. And Michelle Manning-Scott, Associate Producer of the show, is also with us.
Later in the show, we hear from Austin Sanders, Staff Writer at the Austin Chronicle. Austin describes what led to the recent “indefinite suspension” (read: firing) of an APD officer. The story may restore a modicum of confidence in the system of police oversight and accountability. We also hear about frustrated efforts to relocate the Downtown Austin Community Court (read: NIMBY).
