Ignore all that, have we talked about your dining options in these cities yet. That is the most important thing to look at when moving to a new city.

All big cities have crime. Some though have much more than others though.

Dallas used to not be anywhere near this bad. It's gotten a lot worse over the past 5 years or so and that's because all of the voters who would vote in different leadership have left for the suburbs and all you have left are the South Dallas minorities who will vote for whatever crooked corrupt crook their community leader/pastor tells them to vote for, the LGBT and millenial hipster community in Oak Lawn/Mockingbird who will vote for whoever makes them feel like they are compensating for their white guilt, and the limosuine liberal crowd in North Dallas who will vote to keep the plantation intact, insulated from the consequences in their gated communities.

Seems like the situation could have been avoided. It said it happened after midnight, and happened during the confrontation between the two groups. Sad loss but if we had gun control laws that thug would have to obey the laws and therefor would not have had a gun to murder anyone with. When will we learn?

That's nothing to take lightly or chuckle at. Nobody's especially proud of it or anything

hope they find the perp and just put a bullet in their head on the spot



Would probably be a good deterrent but the perp will get better treatment and more consideration then the victim ever would have. Certainly more than he gave the victim.

And people still wonder how to reduce street violence.

Dallas is a crime infested city.

Prayers sent to all those who live in that war zone.

I took my nephew to the Dallas Aquarium and we took the DART to get there. The train station we got off at was extremely sketchy, it was the West End Station. Just a bunch of people who have nothing better to do with their lives than loiter around a bus station all day. We saw the same deadbeats when we got there at 10am as we did when we left at 2pm. I did not feel safe there


I know what you mean about the West End Station. One time, I ate at that McDonalds near the station and never really felt comfortable.

My funniest memory there though is watching a cop stand on one side of the tracks, casually writing tickets to people jaywalking. I guess jaywalking is the biggest issue down there that needs to be handled.

Dallas County has voted solid blue for the last two elections. Maybe three.

You and Darth couldn't be bigger bitches about Dallas. At least he's doing it because he used to live here and likes to take shots.
