@*DalMem* @satam55 @rantanamo @heart so we just ignore the fact that they got rid of Craig Watkins for a psychopath? bytch been in the crazy house more than on the job since she got elected. Dems got two brothers and a sista ready to run against her in 2018 if she don't drop out before then.

I really liked craig watkins, dude was really fair and got a lot of non violent brothas lighter sentences and got some guys outta prison on wrongful convictions. That hawk bytch is the epitome of white privilage. She treats her staff like shyt and rarely works. The dfw biased media refuses to hold her feet to the fire on matters like they did watkins..
The crazy thing is Craig Watkins was considered the best DA in the country. And the Northern Dallas County CAC voted against him because he wasn't putting enough nikkas in the many Texas privatize prisons.
He was unapologetic black and that made CAC nervous.
Also, Craig Watkins would've won if nikkas got out and voted.
yo i cant believe nobody at the DMN has called for her to resign. they used to get on watkins for petty shyt that happens with all politicians. this bytch has literally been in and out of treatment for 2 years. here staffers doing all her work. smh

They feel like they're not capitalizing on all the revenue that they could because it's too hot. Ideally they wanted to put a roof on the BPIA but the way it's constructed, it doesn't allow it.team got some decent looking ladies.
at arlington getting all the sports teams in dallas.
@BigE214 why are they building a new ballpark already? BBIA is a beautiful ballpark. New one should have been built in downtown Dallas either in the Reunion district or across 30 from AAC. If they really want suite money that's where it should have put.
I think it will work. Bruh so much construction going on, something big is in the works. This "horseshoe" that they're making to connect all these freeways at the center of downtown will turn into an entertainment district soon so I can see there being a park there. Kinda how they upped Kylde Warren outta no where.
It's just a venue. They throw dope shyt for young black business pro's. It's always hoes galore when I go to a venue. It's a few different promoters but they're all cool with each other in some form or fashion so they'll throw anything from after work networking (happy hour) events, brunch, day parties ect ect...Made me leave them hood hoes alone
So much
The thing is she isnt dealing with any depression, the bytch is a drug addict that abuses perscription pills. That depression shyt is just a cover up. Again the dfw media is racist as fukk. She makes well over 200k and never does anything. The local politics here are comical and corrupt.
it wont make a difference if jerry won't allow rail out there.
I like the idea, but its like what the Patriots have done or like what Atlanta is doing, only much smaller. It simply won't have much impact. Not large enough to help them keep much revenue in Arlington. The problem is, the downtown area of Dallas has more hotel rooms than the rest of the metroplex combined several times over, and it also has by far the nicest hotels as well. People tend to eat close to where they stay. They may go to programmed events there, but otherwise, there's just not much space.
I'm curious as to what material they are planning on using on the new stadium. Already seeing that ETFE leaks some, with the Vikings new stadium. No way that's efficient enough to keep our summer sun radiation out. That AC bill will be crazy.

why breh?? why does every big plan for this city die???
looking back i'm surprised they got dart rail done.
The funny thing is, it will never die as long as the tollroad is a possibility.
That's silly because the murder rate is up in almost every major city in America right now. This isn't just a Dallas problem.
shyt, here in Memphis the 2016 murder rate is on course to being double of what it was in 2015.
I don't know why nikkas decided to turn up in 2016.

Homicide Rates Jump in Many Major U.S. Cities, New Data Shows
WASHINGTON — Experts cannot agree on what to call a recent rise in homicides, much less its cause, but new data on Friday that showed a sharp spike in homicide rates in more than 20 cities rekindled debate over whether it was time for alarm.
The data showed particularly significant increases in homicides in six cities in the first three months of the year compared with the same period last year — Chicago, Dallas, Jacksonville, Fla., Las Vegas, Los Angeles and Memphis. But almost as many cities reported a notable decline in recent months.
New York saw a 25 percent drop, while Las Vegas’s homicide total nearly doubled.
Law enforcement officials struggled to explain the numbers and differed over their significance.
The heroin epidemic, a resurgence in gang violence and economic factors in some cities were all offered as explanations, but the most contentious theory came from an agency that usually does not worry much about local crime: the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
The agency’s director, James Comey, has linked rising crime to less aggressive policing — the “viral video effect,” he called it this week, rejecting the more racially charged “Ferguson effect.” His theory, however, found little support from the White House, law enforcement groups, criminologists or even the group that gave him the new data on Friday.
Mr. Comey said that a string of videos that went viral on the Internet had led some officers to become reluctant to confront suspects. He conceded that he was operating off anecdotal evidence, but such reluctance, he said, could be contributing to the increase in homicides in some cities — an increase that he said left him deeply worried.
“Something is happening,” he said on Wednesday.
But the White House pushed back again on Friday. The White House spokesman, Josh Earnest, said that the increase in homicides in some cities was a concern and that the administration had already taken steps to address it, including a roundup by the Marshals Service last year of some 8,000 fugitives.

This is interesting. Because the media in Memphis are reporting that a lot of MPD officers are going to Dallas and Austin because they pay more than Memphis.
The crime in Dallas is probably nothing to them as compared to the shyt that goes on in Memphis.

The sociologist in me says it was simply a warmer winter, so the stats got a jump.
I feel you but the thing is when officers in memphis say they're coming here I wonder are they talking about dpd specifically or a surrounding city departments in dallas i.e.(plano, garland)
When you're the manager of job that has so many different unions, you're bound to piss some people off. I think that's a problem with being chief of police. And you're right, crime is up in every major city and being how big dallas is, its not that bad.
Another thing that I find irrating is the local media is focused on a spike in murders, again that's another ploy for more public outcry to remove the chief. Crime and drugs have been a major problem in south dallas, oak cliff, PG & north dallas for years. Its just now shyt is being reported by the local media.
