They need a Katrina to hit them so all the riffraff that showed up from New Orleans and never left will finally take off...
Well Houston will now be like New York City, LA, etc. Hope the people of Houston wise up and start calling these political officials who passed the law before it is to late.
Houston area and Texas ping
“Theft, if the value of the property stolen is $100 or more but less than $750”
Most purses and cellphones.
Ping.
Basically legalizing certain crimes - naturally they will have more of them
Hell, Denver has been handing out Get Out of Jail Free passes to half the third world for years now...Disease, Destruction and Death have yet to cause a second thought.
Possession of a controlled substance, if the controlled substance is four ounces or less Criminal Mischief
= = =
Four ounces of Fentanyl?
OK, on-line math students.
At 1000 to 2000 microgram = sure death, how many deaths are in 4 oz of Fentanyl?
My son lived in Houston for a few years. Now he’s in Fort Worth.
He said what you said... that a lot of New Orleans bad actors moved to Dallas after Katrina and stayed. He also said that Hurricane Harvey was no joke either, with rising water on all sides.
Lots of guns under $750.
Well, shoot! I have never even had a parking ticket. My life is dull and boring and plain vanilla. I think I will move to Houston and start a Life of Crime!!!!
Signed an Executive Order to allow people to commit crimes ,this idiot should be arrested
Our son was taking classes at a junior college in Rancho Cucamonga and he mentioned that after Katrina a lot of bad actors moved to Houston from Nawlins. A young black girl got really angry with him and told him off. He was only telling the truth and he did not mention skin color! Truth hurts...
“Lots of guns under $750.”
Very true but harder to snatch.
A $750 loss to a lot of people in this country is a very heavy loss. So there are virtually no serious penalties for pillaging the poor??? Looking out for the little guys, aren’t you Rats????
I don’t EVER want to hear a Rat say anymore that they represent the common man.
“I’ll take HOW TO TURN YOUR CITY INTO A S***HOLE FOR $200, ALEX...”
Is this like they’re not going to lock somebody up and throw away the key for having a joint?
If that’s the gist of it, I don’t have a big issue with it.
I really dislike druggies and don’t wanna be anywhere near them, but I’m not for hanging-judge overreaction to someone having what used to be called nickel/dime bags (at least back when in the day were the terms).
I think its already too late, for Houston.
Between Mayor Sylvester and County Judge Hildago...this place is lost.
Up to $2500 damages from graffiti so a lot of stuff gets tagged for a ticket. And dine and dash is now essentially legalexcept, perhaps in some Italian places.
