People who have to drink or take drugs, have a problem. They are masking the symptoms of whatever it is. I would have thought someone from White Settlement would have less of a tolerance for such behavior. Your city has been ravaged by the use of methamphetamine. It has one of the highest concentrations of Aryan Circle and Aryan Brotherhood Of Texas gang members in the whole country. Drugs brought them there.

actually no, our city is doing just fine and contrary to what you think, there are very little gang or kkk problems. Probably you shouldn't talk about things you don't knoow about and people who drink or smoke don't have a problem. it's sounds really stupid to say that.

I drink, so I'm trying not to judge too harshly, but I would believe with his background ntxtrapper would have a good idea about the drug issue in and around Fort Worth. I consume a couple of drinks at home and I never drink and drive, I have several family members who should never drink because they don't know when to stop. I think what we are really talking about is abuse, too much of a not so good thing.

That’s hilarious. I specialized in dealing with all the gang activity in the area and documented the locations of them. White Settlement is the hub of aryan gang activity for Tarrant County. The methamphetamine use there is so prevalent the majority of meth investigations in north, central and west FW would all have a nexus to White Settlement. You can’t be that naive and live there.

and I've lived here for 28 years and in the area for 41 so I'm in a far better position to make that statement IMO. Never had an issue. you have an opinion, nothing more. Good day.

Actually it’s not an opinion, they are indisputable facts. A ride in with the evening shift beat officer would be beneficial. He or she wouldn’t have the specialized knowledge and experience that I have, but there’s no way they could be completely oblivious to the criminal element in the area either.

Your worked in the gang and organized crime unit during the last part of your career right?

I've heard that many regular Joe Civilians would be surprised at what goes on around them.

I believe it. If you're not part of the "scene," you probably aren't aware of crap that's going on unless you actually become a victim of it. Had work friends that lived in WS and had no clue about the Irish Travelers living there. I don't blame anyone for standing up for their community.

The travelers left a few years ago and didn't come back. used to see them all the time. Im also far from clueless. the area north of 30 on las vegas trail is night and day worse than white settlement. but everyone can think what they want.

'Had to look up "Irish Travelers", but I learned something today!

to be sure they are some nasty people. they used to live out by benbrook lake in the 80's before they all moved to the trailer parks in town. every store in town hate them. biggest scammers alive. If some are still there, you don't see them anymore. good riddance.

Interesting study.

I was a sergeant over gang enforcement and later was a sergeant over the gang criminal investigations/Intelligence unit. Our geographical boundaries were anywhere in Texas. I supervised dual commissioned detectives with multiple federal agencies and everyone was HSI dual commissioned so we could remove aliens from the United States if needed. We were expert witnesses in all courts on the topic of criminal street gangs. Gang member documentation, engaging in organized crime investigations, shootings, Hobbs Act, if you can think of some gangster stuff I’ve worked it. And now I’m a wealth of useless knowledge that’s feeding deer and catfish every day

They sound like cedar choppers that were up in the hills west of Austin. They were Scots. Dad told me about them. He was born in Austin in 1918. Whenever he came across a particularly nasty example of PWT you could hear him mutter under his breath "cedar chopper." His mother had a lot of Scottish blood in her, but he probably didn't know it.

Ditto, I got about two minutes into it and it was obvious of the outcome, normal people see it on the news almost daily, libtards/demorats turn I blind eye.

Can we add fentanyl and some of the other crap prescribed by Dr. and big pharma to this enlightened discussion!!

Watched this dude shoot up in broad daylight at a gas station then started screaming!!! Trash

Parasitic germ.

He needs to be run out of town.

Cedar Hackers, no socks, no underwear, watch out for those guys...what my daddy told me.

He probably started screaming because he missed his vein or it was bunk dope.

Cedar choppers... Dang, yall are a tough crowd. Grew up in that part of the world.
Is there no way theres not a single one of them thats just a decent blue collar worker????

In Austin in the 1920s and 30s?

Free, you mighta started off as a blue collar guy, but you worked quickly to the white collar crowd….

Amen to that. A lot of doctors these days are little more than drug dealers. Someone very close to me is hooked on prescription opiates. Has multiple doctors prescribing multiple things, pretty much high all the time.
