Is crime in Houston way up?

So you think the crime has to do with the recession?

 

Yes, It is not coming from the people of New Orleans.

All of those articles are from 2006, when the recession began.

 

I don't understand. How would this be the case? If you are blaming a city wouldn't it stand to reason there would be more than one race involved?

 

actually recession began around December 2007.

Houston was one of the fortunate cities in America, because we didn't feel the effects as much as other cities...

 

Here's an interesting site:

Yea, you might want to disregard my earlier posts. I hate seeing these threads in the hangout.

 

No, it began earlier than that. A recession is defined as three months of declining GDP. Check the books.

 

What do you mean?

 

Fixed.
I apologize for the triple post.

Check the books.

I was messing with the racist guys for the most part.

 

What book ol mighty smart one?

 

I had no interest in opening this thread because I'm not from Houston but I'm sure glad I did. This is comedic gold. You, sir, are a ri-tard.

BTW, here's an article I found written in August of this year about how much of New Orleans' pre Katrina population has not returned you guys might be interested in. Has some interesting numbers at the end for comparison.
