i'm Bridget
i'm Melissa Melissa Brigette Moore
yes
what are you doing
nothing
i'm just sitting here trying to
eat bread before i go to a meeting
are you in Dallas or Lubbock
no i'm in Lubbock
oh are you
yeah what are you doing are you at the office
how funny huh
where are you
i'm at home
are you
yeah
cool
i know like listen to us we're like trying to volunteer
okay are you ready for me to push one
yeah
do we know what we're going to say
about crime
yeah okay i'll push one
okay
okay so what do you think about crime in the big D
well
i'm worried about my car because i just got a new car and
are you
so i'm worried about it
getting stolen or anything happening to it at all
um-hum
so
i don't know i think in Dallas it's a lot more scary just because it's a big city i mean in Lubbock and stuff i know lots of people that don't lock their doors or you know leave their windows open at night because it's so much smaller i mean it feels safer
yeah
yeah
and i know that it happens here but it's not near like it is in Dallas
yeah
people are more trustworthy i think
yeah
people have reason to be i guess
i don't know i don't it doesn't matter where i go i lock my doors
yeah
so
i know lots of people that'll leave their doors open you know if you have to go get something like
get a book or something from their house you can just walk right in
they're always unlocked or something and
gee i don't think i'd ever do that if i wasn't at home
i mean
see i know and there're only like certain
you know neighborhoods up in Lubbock that are that you wouldn't leave your doors unlocked you know
yeah
but besides that i don't know it's fairly safe i think
God even up in like Highland Park i don't even think i'd leave it open seems like that'd where they'd really go for the big houses
really
yeah
yeah
hum
Dallas can be pretty bad though
yeah
i think it depend on the city really
yeah
i don't know though because i think that way of Lubbock and then uh
like i was talking to this girl that lives way out in the country and she was saying how bad it is out there and i would think it would be less
uh-huh
yeah
i would thinking it wouldn't be as bad
yeah
i guess it just depends because there're certain part of the cities too there's no way i would ever i wouldn't even leave my car alone in south Dallas
see i know i know that's scary
um
i don't know though but i still think like out in the country when she said that i was like what
yeah
i was like no way and she goes yeah she goes you know people get broken into a lot because they you know it's real easy to get away with there you know no one can see them carrying out the stuff if no one lives nearby
yeah
i was like well that's true but besides that
i don't know and i think it's just getting worse
yeah
that's what scares me about living out in uh like off in the country i used to live out in the country
uh-huh
and that kind of scares me because i think
you know you always hear about all those murders and it's weird to think about but it happens and that's the scary part
i know
see i know
and i don't like living out in the country i like living in the city where i'm close to there might be more crime or as they say but it just makes me feel safer because i'm around someone
yeah that's true
because you have neighbors and stuff at least you know
yeah if i scream someone's going to hear me
i know someone's got to
yeah
i know that's scary though
yeah
and it just keeps rising
yeah
i mean i can't imagine
i don't know what's after i've been here so long it's like i well you'd have to pay me to move back to Dallas
yeah
i mean i don't like now now that
i'm away from it and i can look back at how you know Dallas is and stuff yeah i don't like it
yeah
i don't like it at all really
i don't know i think it'd depend on
hum
i don't know where you live i know that's not right though i think that but i don't think that's really
yeah
i don't know i guess i'm sure there is
a bunch of thieving of thieving going on in Lubbock it's just not around you or not that you know of
yeah
yeah
because i don't know i mean uh a couple of summers ago the people behind us got robbed
and
you know we were everybody was looking out but ever since like a week after that nobody just even paid any attention any more
really see that's sad i would think like car theft is a really big thing
yeah
yeah
yeah
wouldn't you
yeah
i think that or
especially here where we have so many cars
i know i know
everybody in New York takes a cab and we've all got cars
see i know
i don't know because that's
i think car i don't know if that is though that's what that 'd be my guess car theft for sure
yeah
because i don't burgalies burgurlaries i can't say that burgalies i don't know i don't know if there'd be that
i don't know besides people that would be just have like kids that come in and burglarize and take like TVs and stuff that they could sell real easy whereas someone like cleaning you out you know
yeah
i guess that would depend on it too
yeah a friend of mine's house he was gone all summer but he has a house here by himself
uh-huh
and um his own friends got in and robbed him
no way
yeah he has this he has this like gorgeous bedroom set and that's the
oh my gosh
