I live in the "hood". My liberal buddies live in gated neighborhoods.
They claim they are not racists but refuse to live anywhere near "them".
I wonder why?
They wonder if coming to my house is "safe".
I tell them that we have a very low incident rate of theft of Lexus, Mercedes, and such being stolen and I do not know of anyone living around me that has had their Rolex jacked.
They ask if it is worse during the day or at night.
Liberals.
Most of them have at least one token "black friend". They don't go to their house either.

If welfare is substantially cut back, because of our economic crisis, I believe the underclass in Houston will become extremely violent. The gated communities, that are located mostly in suburban areas, may be the only safe place to be. Neighborhood watches will become well armed and well trained to deal with those who breach the gates.
In ancient Rome, near the end of the empire, the masses were kept docile with bread and circuses. America may not be able to pay for our bread and circuses system for much longer.
