I live in the Houston area and I like the city, but it is a very violent place. People should be aware of this fact and conduct themselves accordingly.
I read the Houston news, so that is where I find most of the articles that I post. Also, most of the national news stories are posted by someone else before I get to them, but the Houston stories are sometimes not posted.
I am not really worried about myself or my family, since we do not spend time in the areas where most of the violence occurs and we do not take part in the activities that lead to most of the violence.

So you're warning people about Houston? Is it more violent than New York or Atlanta or D. C. or Los Angeles or Philadelphia or San Diego or Kansas City or any other big city? You posted a similar article about events in Grand Prairie (I believe it was). So is it Texas, in general, that you feel you need to educate people about? I don't mean to be argumentative, honestly. Your quote above just strikes me as being as odd as your selection of articles. [Please note: I'm not arguing with your right to post what suits you.]

If you fear violence, then take the course and get a Concealed Handgun License...or move if you think you'll be safer elsewhere.
If there is some other agenda, your point is lost.
