I can see the real rational intellectual coming out of goat. I understand the ego and pride coming from texas but to further draw it to a conclusion as to why and then challenging to prove wrong is idiocy.

In the 11 years Morgan Quitno has been publishing its survey, Texas has bounced around the chart, reaching its lowest dip in 1994 when it was ranked the third most dangerous state and peaking in 2000 when it was charted as the 17th most dangerous state.

Nothing like living in the past.

As I said, no Texas cities are on the current list. Spin as hard and as far back as you feel is necessary, however sour-graper. LOL

OH I GET IT NOW

you are just like hillary and the others

you blame mexican drug violence on US

well then thats different

Thank for the link. In return for your favor, I'll give you a brief geography lesson: Nuevo Laredo, though on the border, is indeed in Mexico.

You're welcome.

Maybe if you came up with a stronger name to call me than 'asshat' your point would be more valid. LOL

maybe asshat is the extent of his vocabulary.

do i

sorry to spoil the fun... i was saying before being so rudely interrupted... now, i was saying....

do i...
...look like i care what you said?

I never accused you of caring to hear the facts. But then, those who cite planetprison.com seldom do want the facts. LOL

drug violence expected to intensify in '09:

The threats, the intelligence official said, are a result of "growing frustration" ... internal dynamics of ... organizations. He described the ... gangs as "transnational, with deep financial, cultural and social ties to ... U.S. cities, whether ... El Paso, Houston or Dallas."

laugh it up or shoot it up.

hey dont forget all that shit by ronnie earle

you know the shit that
WENT NOWHERE AND DELAY WAS NOT FOUND GUILTY OF ANYTHING............

of course the lies and misuse of the office by this pompous jerk did just what he was supposed to ..

keep up the onslaught of lies and inuendos until it wasnt worth it anymore..
so in that regard he surely got a nice little check from george soros.

gangs as "transnational, with deep financial, cultural and social ties to ... U.S. cities, whether ... El Paso, Houston or Dallas."

Allow me to futher the geography lesson for you, ichiro:

When drugs make their way from Mexico to say, Chicago, they have to go through a border state since Illinois is not one.

You're welcome.

Keep spinning. As I said, and you are hellbent in disproving even at making a mockery of yourself, is that no Texas cities are on that high crime list.

Keep the spin up though. Quote planetprison.com. if you need to. Ignore basic cartographic realities. You're a funny guy.

That Texas is next to the border with all its crime and still doesn't make the highest crime city lists says a lot about the cities on it, doesn't it? I mean, what is their excuse? They can't blame it on the drug border wars you like to cite for the crime problems in Texas cities.

You are sinking yourself, ichiro.

goatman

while you are giving facts about the border war be sure to remind the 'folks' here that obama lies every time he says that 90% of the guns used are from the us
the real number is that 90% of the guns CONFISCATED are from the us...which only accounts for ONE THIRD of all the guns used according to the mexican government

...The indictment cites a "money trail" of Cheney's ownership in prison-related enterprises including the Vanguard Group, which owns an interest in private prisons in south Texas.

Hah! The jails are going to get really crowded if everyone who has ever invested in one of Vanguard's funds is now guilty of a crime. Almost every 401k and pension plan in the U.S. has at one time invested $$$ in Vanguard either through bonds, stocks, or in one of their over 100 mutual funds. I was invested with Vanguard at one time too. Will Cheney and I now have to share a jail cell?

Privately-owned prisons are being used all over the U.S. Even California was considering sending our own prisoners out of state to privately-owned prisons to lessen the incarceration costs to our own state. If a company is legally run as a privately-owned prison and sells stock in their enterprise, where is the crime? Maybe I missed something?

When drugs make their way from Mexico to say, Chicago, they have to go through a border state since Illinois is not one.

oh i see, like Michigan.

i get it, they go from mexico > texas > michigan > then to illinois.

wow, impressive operation you got going on there, sort of hides you right in the middle, like hiding in plain view, eh?

.....and nothing in the North East either where the gun laws are more stringent. Hmmmmmmmm.

CALIFCHRIS says he maybe missed something:

ya, you missed the point, grand jury indictment out of Texas against Cheney (a Nebraskan) and Gonzales (a Texan):

1. organized criminal activity related to alleged abuse of inmates in private prisons.
2. profiteering from depriving human beings of their liberty.

"The indictment cites a "money trail" of Cheney's ownership in prison-related enterprises including the Vanguard Group" --nowhere does it indict, yet, Vanguard or its officers.

moving on....

Psst, I'll buy some Vanguard right away.

oh i see, like Michigan.

???

Are you being serious or is this a joke. If the latter -- haha. Funny. Canada is a source of drugs. I get it. LOL

moving on....

To what? The next planetprison.com story? I can't wait. LOL

I haven't checked, but do these five cities house large "minority" populations? And is criminal activity concentrated largely among those populations, perps anyway?

And it won't "indict, yet" either -- anyone.

Looks like you're beating a dead horse. A Willacy County, Texas judge threw out all 8 indictments against Cheney, Gonzalez, and everyone else.

Aw, come on Chris, can't I be your celly. Co-ed prisons. Doing time won't be half so bad.

Only if I get the top bunk.

It's easier to keep an eye on you that way. lol

How come Flint, Michigan is not in the list? Rumor has it that when Moore is in town, those instruments in the Univ. of Colorado measure a 5.0 on the Mustang scale coming from the direction of that Michigan town. They have to use a Mustang scale because the Moore factor continues to jam the Ritcher Scale. The scientist have not been able to figure out if the reading in the Mustang scale is due to thousands of horses or because of thousands of cars. In either case, this is very bad for global warming.

""Damn! None on that list are in Texas. We'll have to find something else to 'prove' their archaic gun laws and system of justice doesn't work and whine about that instead""

LOL I actually expected to see Houston on there. I was pleasantly surprised when it wasn't.

Having said that, I can't imagine how depressing the local Detroit news is considering we have at least one murder a day, usually more.

I actually expected to see Houston on there

I was expecting that too since the crime rate jumped after Katrina. But even with the gift New Orleans brought to Houston, they missed the list

Houstonians are armed, that keeps the crime rate down.

Hey! Is it just a coincidence or do most of the top 10 dumps have a large population of WOOLY HAIRED CORN TYPE PEOPLE? Thought so!

...but do these five cities house large "minority" populations?

Uh, does a bear shit in the woods?

I believe this thread is about the cities that ARE on the list not the Satyr's personality or the state of the State of Texas.

Still have loads of readin' material-Have some Loui La Moore hards too.

What all those cities have in common is that they are completely infested with democraps.

Oh Thomy, you're tho thilly!

It seems the District Attorney in Willacy County, TX who brought these charges apparently has a quite a rep in the local legal community for being an idiot.

oh really...and you know this how?
I know that ronnie earle is a bitter and biased man because I have watched him for years.

large disparity breeds crime. advertising amplifies this effect.

I read about him (and his local reputation) when these indictment charges first came out in the media. A number of the articles said lots of nutty legal cases were brought up in Waverly County.

This case perked my interest (and had me reading a few different articles on it and on the DA) because I found it so ludicrous to think Cheney and the others (or anyone!) could be named in an indictment merely because their investment in a private prison enterprise had been done through their investments with Vanguard! Do you know how many millions of pension plans and 401ks invest in Vanguard yet this clown DA tried to bring charges based on that alone. Vanguard has over 100 mutual funds invested in anything and everthing!

I've spent years in the legal field (legal secretary and then paralegal). Legalities and the law interest me and crazy, wacky lawyers amuse me -- greatly. Hence, my paying more attention to this particular matter than perhaps some others would. When my firm would get in the new edition of "American Lawyer" every month I'd take my boss' copy home the first night and read the magazine for fun and bring it back the next day. How weird is that? LOL
