Houston, Dallas has a problem. Think about the stats starting a little past two minutes. Actually, think about the multiplier effect. She is just one of nearly a million or so in DFW.

Can anyone remember when Houston or Dallas didn’t have a crime problem?

It’s the Ferguson Effect.

Yeah. Years ago, the district attorney wasn't soft on criminals or hard
on policemen. If you fought with the police, you pretty much could
count on an a$$ whoopin at the very least.
This last decade, I've personally seen people running out of stores
with baskets and carts of merchandise.
Crew-zoe won't prosecute any shoplifting, and we just shipped out
our BLM sympathetic police chief that publicly stated that criminals
were forced to break the law.
This summer when many wear shorts, you can see roughly 1 in 8 or 10
in the grocery stores wearing ankle monitors. Saw it last year more
than years past. The unfortunate people of Houston got to "enjoy " having
a good many NOLA dregs move in on them a while back. I imagine
their crime rate went through the roof. I know a Harris county
LEO that said that . I think about the only difference between DFW and
Houston is square mileage and humidity.
Thankfully, we still have capital punishment here for the time being.
When the out of staters get that thrown out, it'll be a BFM here
like everywhere else

I can in Dallas

Years ago the police didn't play or put up with crime, Sadly with the leaders they have they can only do so much.

That was a domestic dispute between grandmother and mom in Richardson. How could any police anywhere.stop that? She probably wasn't legally allowed to have a gun in the first place.

Dallas and fort worth are two different animals.

I see a problem - "Public records show nearly 20 criminal case filings against Watts since 2016 for robbery and multiple cases of assault and theft. Records show she served time in prison."

Renner Rd is in Collin County.

Richardson is in Collin and Dallas counties.

Yep in Dallas back when DA Henry Wade was in charge, he was very tough on criminals guilty or not.
Back then only real dumazz's or hard core criminals messed with the PoPo.

Ever feel like you're just talking to a wall? lol

Yes. Back when Dallas DA drew a hard line, not the liberal free walk based on race and income level

I don't know why many of you, including the OP for even posting it, keep referring to this as Dallas. This was a domestic incident that did not take place in the city of Dallas or even Dallas County. This was in Richardson in Collin County.

I’m not familiar with all the suburbs of the DFW metro area. I’m not from there nor have I ever lived there. I just refer to it all as either Dallas or Fort Worth, or the metro mess as I like to call it. Probably why they still call them the Dallas Cowboys even though they technically are not in Dallas.

Well, 4 different guys on here are specifically talking about the good old days when their favorite Dallas DAs and city leaders ruled the roost...none of whom have any jurisdiction whatsoever in Collin County.

Ok, I see your point with the DA’s and all the jurisdictions.

I lump everything east of Ft. Worth as Dallas. However, if you are defending Dallas specifically look at some stats. A great site to look at about any city in the US is http://www.city-data.com/

The crime stats for Richardson are a lot better than Dallas.

Every day.

And most hours of every day.

Dallas was just listed as the 10th highest murder rate in the U.S. Another reason life is too short to live in Dallas.
