MS-13 gang members: a growing threat to Austin and other cities
Tony Plohetski at the Austin American-Statesman has a pretty good report on a growing (and alarming) trend of “punch and run” attacks that are occurring on 6th St. in downtown Austin.
It’s believed that these violent random attacks are gang-related, possibly as form of initiation into a gang.
The attack usually happens like this: an innocent person is walking down 6th Street, usually near the end of the night, usually on a weekend. One or more gang members blindside the victim from behind or from the side with a brutal punch to the head or face. Then the cowardly piece-of-shit gang banger wannabe runs.
The attacks have left many of its victims hospitalized. One victim died (21-year-old Nikolas Evans died after he was struck, fell and hit his head on the ground).
Political Correctness Endangers Community
The Statesman has done a good job of alerting our city of this growing danger downtown. Which is a good thing…that’s one of the things that the city’s last remaining daily newspaper is supposed to do.
But several key facts were left out of this story. Most likely intentionally. Most likely so as not to offend the perpetually offended minority groups and grievance mongers of the local minority leaders.
What was ommitted from the story? How about a description of the attackers? Are these a bunch of Nazi skinheads? Doubtful, as the story would have led with that fact if it were the case.
Most likely, the gang-members in question are Hispanic. Very likely with the deadly brutal MS-13 gang.
If we’re supposed to be alert for possible attacks, it would be nice to know who/what to look out for.
Also, the Statesman story notes:
Cmdr. Chris Noble, who supervises officers in downtown Austin, said the assaults have happened near bars and clubs whose clientele include documented gang members.
How about letting the public know which clubs these attacks have happened near, and which clubs are known gang hang-outs? That piece of information would go a long way in helping to keep our community safer.
But, the PC police at the AAS are more concerned with not offending race-hustling greivance mongers than they are with presenging all of the facts that their readers need.

I prefer to see a couple of armed citizens, arrest, try, and execute them during the commission of the crime.
Amen Brother! Get some snipers out there to do the world a favor and shoot down the no good for nothing gang members before they have a chance to be initiated by killing an innocent person.
It’s still happening!!!
My son was a victim of this exact thing last night (early morning today) on 6th street. He has a concussion, his face is fractured in a few places from the fall to the sidewalk. Approached from the side and knoched him out with a punch near the ear. Spent night in hospital. His friend said they ran away laughing.
Robbie, How much presence do you feel MS-13 has in the Austin area?
The Statesman has always buckled under PC pressure – to the detriment of it’s readers.
Thank you for highlighting this problem and for demonstrating once again that the best source of information is from independent writers who live in the trenches and are free to call it how you see it.
[...] Coming to a Newspaper near you … Media PC: danger to your health. [...]
Stop and ask an Austin cop what are the gang hangouts to stay far away from. They’ll tell you.
So in this world living with this shit is going to have to be just one of those things we have to put up with or deal with eh? As Elderly people, young people, your average Joe innocent YOU should be the one who takes the extra steps to “Watch Out” for these pieces of shit out for a good time at YOUR expense and health/safety. We should give a shit what toes we step on or noses get bent by our actions to control these worthless waste of life scum. OK, I get it.
No actually I don’t. We call shit that is a problem a “War.” War on drugs, War on crime etc. etc. etc.
IF we are at war overseas we use FORCE and eliminate our the people we are at war with. We “Snuff” their lives out so they no longer present a danger to US and our Country.
It’s FUN to be in a gang. FUN. It’s easier to take then to give or contribute. If they get caught and go to prison they STILL lead a similar life with the exception of a few rule but still easier due to 3 free hots and a cot. Just some minor inconveniences. You know, oh well.
That picture at top and the story behind it, depict nothing but GARBAGE with no chance of going any other direction and, once you “Put your hands on another person and violate their RIGHT to live a safe worry free life.” then you have JUST then given up any RIGHT of your own and you should be punished. I certainly don’t mean a slap on the wrist and set out to do it again until what, someone is killed.
It is MY position that if you are in a gang that violates another persons right to live in a safe environment and you are a menace to society then you need to be DOWNED like we do dogs. You are a waste of life that we don’t need around in our society nor do we need to pay our hard earned money to house or feed you behind bars. I don’t give a rip if someone doesn’t like it or the parent doesn’t feel their child deserves it because it all falls back on a parent too. Ethnic groups will scream injustice. But the victim wasn’t given a choice if he or she wanted to be violated in any manner so where should I give a shit? Religious groups will scream. But the bible says “live by the law of the land” and the 10 commandments doesn’t exist in our times. Love they neighbor covers ALL 10 of the commandments! If you’re going to MAKE a law LIVE that law! Mean what you say and live by it!
War on Crime. Lets actually have that war and free ourselves of this garbage that keeps producing and eliminate fear that these pieces of shit affect us with. Lets make it NOT fun to be associated with a gang or hate group or anything else negative. Lets make parents worry for their children and actually BE parents and raise children correctly! As positive contributors in society. Make THEM fear being anything BUT!!
NOBODY should live in fear or worry what will happen to them just because some pieces of shit in life prefer to be WORTHLESS!
Sounds harsh but you know what? Our daughters and sons wouldn’t be kidnapped, raped and even sometimes buried alive!
The world a safe and happy place to live….what a concept.
