Growing Up in Bandera
Growing Up in Bandera
In my mind I think I'm still living in the country. That's the way it has always been for me here in Bandera. Didn't matter if we lived in town because you were still considered country. Everything about our way of life back in the day was considered country. Yes, I know it's more in my head than in reality now but I like it that way. 06/19/2024 00:00

On Behalf of the Jury, I Object!
On Behalf of the Jury, I Object!
The jury system has literally been around for millennia. Early Greek democracy included citizen juries; our modern system has its roots in medieval England. The fundamental idea was that fairness could be better achieved if a group of one’s peers in the community had input into the final decision of the court and could advise the judge according to their deliberations. 06/12/2024 00:00

THE APPRAISAL VALUE RIP-OFF SCAM OR WHY YOU DON’T OWN YOUR PROPERTY
THE APPRAISAL VALUE RIP-OFF SCAM OR WHY YOU DON’T OWN YOUR PROPERTY
The state of Texas is granting Apple 25 million dollars from the Texas Enterprise Fund and is giving Apple a 15-year property tax abatement worth sixteen million dollars from Williamson County. These perks are going to a company that doesn't need extras from Texas taxpayers' pockets. This is called socialism, wrongly considered a dirty word most of the time, except when the handout is given to the wealthy. This type of scam happens all the time, whether it's called tax breaks, bailouts, or gentrification. 06/12/2024 00:00
