[speaker001:] all right I've never done it before so I guess that's all I have to do right I've been called several times you know I push in pushed in my number
[speaker002:] I guess so
[speaker001:] they kept saying you have the invalid code and then I found out that my new phone wasn't working right so and this this so this the first time I've even done it
[speaker002:] oh really oh  yeah
[speaker001:] I wonder how long it's gonna be on for
[speaker002:] I think five minutes is the max
[speaker001:] oh no I mean this whole thing like for two months or something do you know
[speaker002:] oh I don't know I'm not really sure
[speaker001:] yeah okay well back to crime I guess we're supposed to talk about that they say what aspect are you worried about well I think at this point I for one am worried about every aspect
[speaker002:] well especially uh you since you're in the same metroplex you know there's so much going on here
[speaker001:] I think the drive by shootings are getting so be so common that's really a something you got to protect yourself from you know
[speaker002:] well that and in the schools too
[speaker001:] um-hum God I know
[speaker002:] starting to put metal detectors in and
[speaker001:] have they done that in Garland
[speaker002:] no I not that I'm aware of
[speaker001:] no um
[speaker002:] I just heard you know last week at that one school they started putting them in because there was that one shooting
[speaker001:] right
[speaker002:] so um
[speaker001:] well we had a vice principal shot at here last year on the you know on the school grounds after school
[speaker002:] is that right
[speaker001:] and then one boy killed himself a few years ago in the in a grade school so you know these kids don't have any trouble getting a hold of guns in any in any neighborhood doesn't seem like
[speaker002:] uh-huh not at all yeah yeah
[speaker001:] so uh yeah it's kind of scary to think you send your child to school and you wonder if he's gonna get shot I mean we never had to worry about that before
[speaker002:] I know I know it's it's it's getting it's been out of hand I think for a while and it just continues to get worse
[speaker001:] what next right and you know we can't really depend on the police to solve all this they just can't do it
[speaker002:] yeah
[speaker001:] I think it goes all the way back to the break up of the family to a certain extent and and you know how we're gonna bring that back together
[speaker002:] right yeah that's yeah I think I agree I think that's where it stems from is that and um you know you've got a lot of a lot more women that are working nowadays that aren't home with the children and that may impact it as well
[speaker001:] um-hum right and I think so and and then there's a drop in uh the training of morals really you know
[speaker002:] right right
[speaker001:] these some of these young kids you read about just doesn't bother them to kill someone at all I think
[speaker002:] yeah they don't think twice about it
[speaker001:] I think years past maybe our criminals had a little more morals morals you know wouldn't kill somebody in cold blood
[speaker002:] yeah  either that or I don't know if it happened and it wasn't as highly publicized as it is now or what the what the case is
[speaker001:] I think it was just rare I really do
[speaker002:] uh-huh
[speaker001:] my mother well she's like seventy four now or she when she was a young girl she had a beautiful beautiful cousin that lived in California
[speaker002:] um-hum
[speaker001:] and she was dating this millionaire's son and he wanted to marry her and she wouldn't marry him and so he drove out in the country one day and shot them both
[speaker002:] you're kidding
[speaker001:] and um no I'm the witness
[speaker002:] himself and her
[speaker001:] yeah um that must've been at least fifty years ago or more but the point of the story is that that was so unbelievable a thing in those days that it was on all the papers all over the country for weeks
[speaker002:] I bet
[speaker001:] but now you know you would probably even read about it here in Texas
[speaker002:] oh I know
[speaker001:] it's just you know another killing
[speaker002:] well they were I was watching some show the other day and they were talking about uh mass murderers and they brought up what happened in Killeen here recently and they were saying you know that
[speaker001:] um-hum um
[speaker002:] these guys want attention and that when it happens they're glorified because all the newspaper it's on all the newspapers and TVs and and everything
[speaker001:] um-hum um-hum right and lots of their pictures and their life story and everything
[speaker002:] right and then you get to their life story oh they came from a broken family oh this person had mental problems oh duh duh duh you know
[speaker001:] um-hum right right I know how do we go into all these houses and straighten up all these twisted people before they do something terrible
[speaker002:] I yeah
[speaker001:] so it that story I just told you about my mother's beautiful cousin well the same thing happened here in Arlington when was it I think it was oh it was almost a year ago in December to a girl that my daughter had graduated from high school with
[speaker002:] is that right
[speaker001:] yeah in fact it was on a Hard Copy she was a real attractive blonde girl in in her freshman year of college and some boy she tried to get rid of uh he was like in his twenties remember that yeah
[speaker002:] um-hum I remember seeing that I saw that on Hard Copy
[speaker001:] right right that's uh she my daughter graduated with her from Arlington High School
[speaker002:] yes is that right
[speaker001:] yeah can you believe it it's just uh
[speaker002:] I'm trying to remember he um had her in the car in front of Taco Bueno or something and he just shot them himself and her I remember seeing that on Hard Copy
[speaker001:] Taco Bueno right uh-huh um-hum right nobody yeah isn't that weird uh
[speaker002:] yeah there's just too many crazy people out there these days
[speaker001:] I know and uh the police are not gonna do anything until they've they have committed some sort of a crime
[speaker002:] I'm
[speaker001:] you know he was just begging her on the phone they can't do anything
[speaker002:] yeah
[speaker001:] and there are times I've think gee maybe I should give my kids guns
