The crime rate in Dallas is out of control and growing.
Every morning the news media reports on more over night shootings/killings.
The new Dallas Mayor (an African American) has demanded the police department do something to lessen the current crime wave. The Dallas Police Department brought in the Texas Ranges to help out last year. They cracked down on gangs and drug dealers and the violence declined, but the black community screamed racial profiling. Too many black people being arrested and not enough whites. I think the police were more interested in the criminals and their crimes than their skin color.
So I see this as a "Here we go again" moment.
The police need to be able to do their job professionally but they are hindered by social bias and prejudice.
If you want less crime, you need to go after the ones who are committing the crimes regardless of race or social status.
People all over the place are ignoring the law. This morning I saw at least six different incidents of people running red lights at intersections or "rolling through" stop signs.
