Those days are over for a long while.
Yet where is Fort Worth's skyline growth then??

I don't care, why are you so obsessed with Fort Worth beating Dallas and what the heck are you talking about, annexation laws??

Why are you so obsessed with Dallas? And type "Texas annexation laws" into your Google toolbar, or whatever search engine.

I asked you first and I got a whole bunch of stuff I don't have time to read. Mind telling me your point?? Fort Worth is not going to beat Dallas, get over it.

i am surprised Ft. Worth hasn't surpassed Dallas. It seems like most of the apprehended illegal aliens passing through Laredo were headed for Ft.Worth or Houston.

True. I would estimate at least half of Fort Worth's growth has been from illegal immigration. I mean it is easier for them to find jobs in an industrial town like Fort Worth vs. a white collar city like Dallas.

You're so stuck in your "Dallas reigns supreme" rant that you're neglecting to actually comprehend posts.

Hey Brajohns81....I can admitt that i like your passion for dallas and I do agree wit SOME stuff u say....but just wanted to let you know that Dallas' biggest defense should be to NOT feel threatend by Ft.Worh...If you know of Dallas' greatness it shouldnt have to be defended as hard as you portray....It comes off as you being insecure about Dallas IMO....let them prove themselves to us....We are the bigger city(not that it matters)

Brajohns is just scared of Fort Worth. And he's so obsessed with other people's likes of a city.

Double

I didn't say Dallas will lose population and Fort Worth will continue to grow. I said it could.... COULD happen. Anything can happen in the future. I know Dallas is growing and I don't care.

If Fort Worth suddenly turned into another Detroit (God forbid), I'll still love it all the same. It shouldn't matter the size.
