Over the past few years things seem to have gotten slightly less dangerous with more police around, but it is still pretty bad and I am going to try to get into a college far away from Houston once I graduate high school.
Of course I immediately cut my business trip short and left Houston two days before I was supposed to. My bosses were mad at me for it, but I don't regret it. Houston is like an unstable third world country in America.
I'm sorry, but I can't stand the redneck pricks that drive lifted trucks with dead skull stickers and that dreadful "Police Lives Matter" American flag, and you can hardly avoid them because they're everywhere. And people worship that lifestyle! Visitors to this place should never talk about their concerns about police brutality or discrimination, or else someone will pack heat. Unfortunately, it's barely an exaggeration since people are literally eager to shoot their guns.
Your mileage may vary, but you know you're not that desirable when many hardcore racists from other states have praise for your city and state. I mean, alt-right folks are not grossed about Houston or Texas in general. Just remember that, Houstonians!
Houston is just a racist city, period. The crime here is horrible, the news is always scary to watch, the police are incompetent at best and complicit at worst(though there are a few good officers), and the gangs seemingly have free reign in some areas. If I didn't know any better, I would think Houston was in a third world country.
