I don't know where you live out here, but i live in a beautiful upper class area with no problems at all. These acts have always happened and i can tell you they happen in the E.C. i have all my realitives who live out there, and also in the South, friends who live there.

There has always been acts of violence taking place, you here more about them today because there are many more nutcases walking and acting
out.

The more the population grows, the more violence we are going to have, There has always been criminals and act of violence, just more going on today, sad, but true.

Are you serious?
Ever hear of the mafia? Yakuza? Street Gangs? Ever see West Side Story (yes, I know, but it shows crime before "the illegals"). How about the KKK?
There has always been violent crime in the US.

Shhhhh, your hatred is showing.

Obviously it was enough to start a fire.
I guess they don't have to do any more research.

C'mon, he's holding a can of gasoline and a lighter in his hand and this becomes the fault of the Texas Rangers?

If you add electricity to gasoline - what do you think is going to happen? The man might have lit himself on fire if the cops had done nothing - but that would have been his responsibility. The cops saying "we don't know what ignited him"? Please.

This ^^^ is not true. In fact, the opposite is the case. Violent crime statistics prove that in 2012 violent crime is DOWN to the level of 1963. In fact, violent crime has been steadily decreasing over the past ten years.

US crime rate at lowest point in decades. Why America is safer now. - CSMonitor.com
