OK...in the last week, I've seen the following threads:
Fisherman robbed
Murder behind fin and Feather
Shots Fired.
WTH is the matter with people that they can't just leave others alone?

| Corpus Christi Chamber of Commerce should be getting worried. One or two killings in the news can really hurt tourism - one of Corpus' bug money makers. In this economy, a 10% drop in tourism can put many business' under. |

A liitle over-stated on SA stats--that would beat Detroit...just saying:-)
Austin; Murders = 23, Rate Per 100,000 = 3.1
Dallas; Murders = 170, Rate Per 100,000 = 13.3
El Paso; Murders = 17, Rate Per 100,000 = 2.8
Fort Worth; Murders = 49, Rate Per 100,000 = 7
Houston; Murders = 294, Rate Per 100,000 = 13.1
San Antonio; Murders = 116, Rate Per 100,000 = 8.6
And by the way, CC has a 5.6 rate per 100,000 |

it may be 4 shootings a night now that i think about it...i talked to the police chief personally about it..its part of the reason no bullet forensics were ever done in the shooting i was involved in there
basically you got to die if you want them to really look into a shooting in SA _________________ http://www.youtube.com/user/Shark456Bait/featured

| The aransas girl will eventually be explained as a domestic case and we'll see on the other girls but to me that doesnt mean i'll avoid the aransas area and won't make me feel like they have a town full of murderers. |
