Dallas: where
criminals thrive and businesses leave.
The high crime rate is
anti-family and anti-children.DFW Has Wall Street’s Attention; Can We
Keep It?
Dallas has long been considered the financial hub of Texas,
but the relative boom of DFW’s business environment has attracted
attention from major firms on Wall Street. Goldman Sachs, Bank of
America, and Wells Fargo have all invested in new corporate campuses
around the metroplex. However, DFW’s success can largely be attributed
to the colossal failure of cities like San Francisco and New York. If
Dallas continues on its current path, the city will meet the same fate,
and businesses will leave.
For a city’s business community to thrive,
you need safe and clean streets. Dallas has neither.
Because the Dallas
Police Department (DPD) is understaffed by nearly 1,000 officers,
businesses cannot count on the police to protect them.
Furthermore, our
Soros-funded District Attorney refuses to fully prosecute criminals, so
they often return to the streets to continue in their ways.

Dallas’s
lax enforcement of Texas’s urban camping ban and local anti-panhandling
ordinances also creates trouble for businesses. Vagrants are free to set
up camps or dump trash around businesses.
In some areas, especially
downtown, vagrants enter businesses to sleep at tables or use restrooms
without purchasing anything. Camps and panhandlers discourage residents
from patronizing these businesses, and they place strain on employees.
Dallas has the potential to inherit the businesses that cities like LA
and San Francisco are losing due to the crime and vagrancy crises in
those cities, but this will not continue once business owners realize
that Dallas has the same problems they are fleeing.
Criminals cannot be
allowed to thrive, or else businesses will leave. Contact your council
member. Demand that they end the pro-crime policies leading Dallas down
the path of other major cities. Tell them we need 1,000 more cops to
keep our residents and businesses safe!

Press Highlights:
Two Teens Found Shot Dead Inside Car
Because our
city council will not hire more cops and our District Attorney refuses
to prosecute criminals, children suffer from the effects of crime on
their families, or they are enticed to commit crimes of their own. High
crime is anti-family and anti-children!

  Dallas Downtown Crime Hovers Over 7% Increase for
2023 Year
When city council members brag about Dallas’s “overall crime
decrease,” they are not telling the whole story. Murders and violent
crime were up in 2023 over the previous year, but some areas of the city
even saw an overall increase in crime. With a 7% increase in crime in
2023, Dallas residents living downtown won’t feel any safer.

  ‘One-Stop-Shop’ Model Gives
Homeless Man A Fresh Start
We know that the ‘Housing First’ program
employed by Dallas does not solve the root causes of homelessness and
vagrancy, but our city council refuses to consider real solutions that
work. San Antonio has seen massive success with the Haven for Hope
model, which centralizes all of the city’s homelessness resources.
Responsible cities have a central location to deliver services to the
homeless!

Tracking Illegal Camps:
[link removed] Each week the KDS team
drives its planned route through Dallas photo-documenting and
cataloguing illegal encampments to inform the city of these locations.
Our team livestreams these activities giving the community a first-hand
look at the vagrancy crisis in Dallas.

In this stream, we expose a
group of vagrants squatting on private property in North Dallas.

 District 13 Councilwoman Gay Willis's
"Junk Camp"
We named
this camp in Gay Donnell Willis’s District 13 “Junk Camp.” More than
half of this vagrant camp is a pile of junk. The scene looks like a
garage sale in reverse – the pile of trash just gets bigger! Dallas
residents have a right to drive through their city without seeing trash
and panhandlers on every corner. Stop making it easy for people to live
on the streets!
 District 6 Councilman Omar Narvaez's
"Mystery
Camp"
This camp in Omar Narvaez’s District 6 has been dubbed “Mystery
Camp.” No one can see in or out of this makeshift camp structure, and
that is most likely the point. Camps like this are made by those who
want to remain on the streets permanently, not people who want help
getting off the streets. Vagrants steal public property for their
personal use.
  District 6 Councilwoman Omar Narvaez's
"Pop-up
Camp"
This camp in Omar Narvaez’s District 6 has earned the title
“Pop-up Camp.” Camps like this are ubiquitous throughout Dallas because
they are so easy to set up and tear down. When city workers notify
vagrants that they will be cleaning the area, this camper can move his
tent to another nearby underpass in no time. To solve the vagrancy
crisis, DPD needs to crack down on all urban camping to stop the spread
of illegal camps!

Statement:
Keep Dallas Safe exists to address crime and homelessness
in Dallas with the goal of transforming Dallas into the safest large
city in Texas for residents and businesses. We aim to have a City
Council that prioritizes crime rate which directly determines the
quality of life in Dallas. We do this by fighting against the "defund
the police" movement, holding accountable our city leaders' efforts
towards lowering district crime rates, and highlighting our city's
homelessness problems by pushing for enforcement of the prohibition of
urban camping.
