Austin has been a liberal city for quite some time. As such, they have adopted liberal policing policies, which caused many of their officers to quit. Staffing shortages cause problems...

I don't think it is a liberal vs. conservative problem. It is a problem in rural areas too, which I think are usually more conservative.
"Some rural areas like Throckmorton County have no deputies at all. Others, including Tarrant County and Ector County, have had to send jail inmates to other lockups because they don’t have enough staff for their jails. And others including Bexar and Travis counties have been forced to rely heavily on overtime to keep proper staffing levels, straining their personnel and risking burnout."

All of america has tipped against cops, who are seen to be forces of evil and brutality. It's a wonder that anybody wants to become a cop these days. Recruiting is down everywhere. Do you want to be the next world-wide pariah for making the wrong split second decision where you feel your life may be in danger?
