It's good to live in Killeen

I've been stewing about the senseless murder in Sanford, Florida.  If a young black man in a hoodie walks down the street in my neighborhood, I'm most likely to say "Hey, Jimmy, how's your dad?"  If my black neighbor sees a white guy with a tattoo on the sidewalk, she probably will say "Thank your mom for the cookies!"

There's plenty wrong with Killeen.  There's a lot we need to improve with regard to race relations.  Thank God we don't shoot each other because we're in the wrong neighborhood.
