10. I live in El Paso.

I lived in Minnesota for many moons before I moved here. El Paso is the least racist place I've ever been in. Our last Mayor was a Jewish immigrant from Mexico and our current one is African American from El Paso. The way I look at it we are more a part of New Mexico. The whole problem isn't with Texans in general, but the "news" media. El Paso is the safest city I have ever lived in but the media has everyone convinced it's somehow dangerous on the border. I remember before the election the media was saying there was going to be a big rush at the border. I spent the 50 cents, walked across the bridge and found right away the homeless camps and the big tent city were empty in Juarez. Not one of the press bothered. Remember the Venezuelan gangs? Disappeared as soon as the election was over. Until we have a way to beat the TV set we will struggle. It's not just Fox, it's all of it including NPR.
