Well, there are two incidents so that must equate to an epidemic. :/
Conroe is not Houston. It's a small bass ackwards (if you ask me) town north of The Woodlands. I wouldn't be surprised by any news of that sort coming out of that area. The further away from the city center you get, spiraling out in all directions, to some of the former rural areas, the more likely you'll experience racism. That should come as no shock. In Pearland 200 students walked out in PROTEST of the noose incident, more than likely hung by some bored suburban teenager or stupid redneck, a truly uninspired copycat of what happened in Jena. Not sure how either of these events support your claim that "there is much racism here." Quote:

Seattle has similar outlying areas. BTW, even in Seattle horrible hate crimes occur:

Much of Pasadena, a town of 100,000+, also comes to mind.

Perhaps Pasadena of the past. Now Pasadena is majority hispanic.

There is racism in every state but, houston is beyond
racist it is disrespectful with all the confederate t-shirts, stickers, shot glasses which can be found right at WILLOWBROOK MALL! which is located right in houston, and it is filled with customers from all races and people just walk by like it's nothing! And I am sure there are many other places you can find these items. People try to justify it with christianity and oh I'm just a good-ole- boy/girl in some kind of sick way. houston also needs to get off it's lazy ass and learn how to ride bikes and recycle. (Texas refuses to let society play the role of mother, father, government!) Then take your backward, silly asses and go seperate since you don't want to be a part of USA! houston is the what 6th, 7th largest city, millions of people and no dam subway system. By the way why subways?(you learn how to interact with people from different races and incomes) but no, not houston! Stay away from houston and surrounding areas such as tomball, conroe, cy-fair, woodlands and cypress! |

Second off, no one here is going to start riding bikes in the hot hot hot humid heat we have here, sweetie. Third off, Houston can't build a subway because there is too much water in the soil to build one. The subway would collapse. Fourth off, Houston is the 4th largest city in the U.S. Get it right. Fifth off, it looks like you're the one who's backwards. Happy Thanksgiving. |

Ashley m was referring to metro Houston being 6th or 7th, which it is. I did find it quite odd not seeing bike lanes. I guess that's why you don't see many bike riders.
