Finally they're being called what they are: refugees.

Nice catch.

And the police force is dealing with this with reduced numbers. Thanks to "out of town" Brown, the city of Houston lost a large portion of the police force, to retirement. The pension mess he approved, would have penalized seasoned officers if they would have stayed working any longer than last year.

[Ichneumon]

Houston is getting what it deserves for inviting the thugs from NO to come to their city.

So Houston "deserves" this for helping 100,000 people in need, the vast majority of whom are not "thugs", eh?

Go crawl back under your rock.

I mean, they are in Texas now. Land of the Alamo, Davy Crockett, the Texas Rangers ....

And more importantly in most of these cases, home of Huntsville Prison, and its room of Final Nap.

They ought to send the bill for incarcerating these guys to NOLA.

[El Gato]

The murderers from NO will be taking out a lot of Texans before they are all rounded up

Some perhaps, but a lot of Texans, of all genders and ethnicities, will be taking out NO thugs as well. Saving the state a bunch of money and time in the process. Defense of self and others is not only allowed in Texas, it's encouraged and celebrated.

[stumpy]

These bad boys are going to find out that Texas does have and enforces the Death penalty for murder. That won't get their attention immediately, but eventually they'll get the message.

It's time for those Texans who have been foolish enough not to pack heat to START PACKING.

[MAWG]

Colt Auto. Cal. 10 mm. We all pack heat down here.

[libstripper]

S&W .357 mag in the car and Beretta .40 in the house.

[Redbob]

The reverse is more likely - here in Texas we shoot back, and we don't much care WTF your mayor is!

[WasDougsLamb]

--Thats what I was thinking. They are their criminals they unleashed on an unsuspecting society.

[willyboyishere]

Yup, they got the dead eyes of one completely taken over
by ATTITUDE. BAD ASS ATTITUDE. Not one of those pairs of eyes will every twinkle, unless it's about to watch somebody die, or give up his wallet, or car, and THEN die.

Ping to you in case you haven't seen this.

[Txsleuth]

Thanks for the ping...I hadn't seen it.
