Waco (and Temple) Police and residents are thinning the heard of outlaws pretty fast though.

Lately, seems like either the police catch them within a week, or an armed resident/business owner does.

Waco's had a bad last 6 weeks or so. There were numerous armed robberies in December.

My wife asked me about her possibly teaching a night class at Mclennan Community College. I don't say "no" to my wife often, but I did to that. Anything that has her in a parking lot in Waco at 10pm... is just not worth it.
