Stephen F. Austin
Which the City of Austin was named after.

Now Austin, has a whole bunch of, DFI, WOKE, FDS.

(Watching a old movie about Sam Houston)

“… While returning to Texas, Austin was arrested, brought back to Mexico City, and thrown into jail.

Austin was in jail in Mexico City for a year and a half; he was never tried or even formally charged with anything. It is perhaps ironic that the Mexicans jailed one Texan who was at least initially inclined to keep Texas part of Mexico.

As it was, Austin’s jailing probably sealed Texas’ fate. Released in August of 1835, Austin returned to Texas a changed man. His loyalty to Mexico had been ground out of him in prison, and he realized now that Mexico would never grant the rights his people desired.

Also, by the time he returned in late 1835, it was clear that Texas was on a path destined for conflict with Mexico and that it was too late for a peaceful solution.

When push came to shove, Austin would choose Texas over Mexico.
Only after a year and a half in jail and a first-hand look at the anarchy in Mexico City did he decide that Texas must set out on its own …”
