Dallas | Is it not politically correct to label homicides drug related?

c/o dallaspolice.net



With every homicide in Dallas, it leaves me with no other choice, but to delve more into the situations leading up to the crime.Using ties that I gained as a drug dealer proves important in the quest for information and distributing it to the public.

If you rely on what the police and news organizations put out, then you're getting half-truths and in some cases straight out lies.

On September 23, 2010, two men in their 20's were gunned down on Plaza BLVD, near Lancaster and I-20.First the media reported that they were shot in a drive-by, after they found a vicitm laying in the yard, dead and that the murders were not drug related.

Then they recanted that story of it being a drive-by, I guess to quell fears from neighboring residents.

After I made some calls, the hood gave me this:

1) Two murder victims were from New Orleans

2) This was their drug house

3)They had large amounts of Marijuana in a duffle bag(somewhere near $7,000 worth)

4)Several people suggested looking into previous occupants, because they were hustling and just left the house, then the guys from New Orleans moved into the house

5)The house where the individuals were murdered was considered a weed and crack house and the house next door in the duplex is a wet house(pcp).PCP is a major contributor to high profile crime because it destabilizes the minds function.


Now until we start to addressing our drug culture problems which constitute the majority of our crimes, humans will continue to die because we're not looking at the root of the problem, which is the drug culture.

Is it because our leaders, news agencies, and police are in bed with the cartels, not sure but common sense states that if they're drug related we would want to send a message out to the public that this will not be tolerated.

This culture is what our children can't wait to grow up to be, a sad day if we continue on reporting homicides this way, maybe we'll realize the problem when it's our children on the front-end of the pistol.Who knows?
