I guess the Katy bubble remains intact for now. But don't be surprised if in the near future the minorities you fear start to move in. Or maybe it's best they stay away from Katy. I would hate to see a child treated badly in a community that doesn't want them because of the income of their parents.

Alright, cut it out already. I'm tired of hearing this BS. You even know better. So stop baiting. If you want to paint someone racist, I would take a hard look in the mirror. After all, you are the one who equates minorities with Section 8 and poverty. What a shame. Shame on you.

He's only speaking truth. People ask you guys what are the worst areas and you always point to the majority minority areas. Do you not???

Comparing those places to Katy now? I do not say Greenspoint, SE Houston, 3rd Ward etc. are bad because there are non-whites living there.
I say they are bad because I have been there and actually seen it. That is just what you are thinking.

It had nothing to do with race and everything to do with "Not on my tax dollars"

I probably can even back it up with statstics. But that's something for the politics section, not here.
