Well, ain’t this somethin’. People gettin’ stabbed all over Austin, Texas. Heard about it on the radio while I was makin’ my mornin’ coffee. What’s this world comin’ to?
First, some fella stabs three people, one of ’em dies. Police got him now, so that’s good. But makes ya wonder, why’d he do it? Was he mad? Was he crazy? Ain’t no excuse for takin’ a life, I tell ya.
- Murder charge. First degree, they say. Means he planned it, I guess. Not just some accident.
Then there’s somethin’ about a young fella at a school. Stabbed another one right in the chest with a big ol’ knife. Kids fight, sure, but with knives? Never heard of such a thing when I was young. We’d scrap, maybe throw a punch or two, but then it was over.
And just when you think you’ve heard it all, they find a man dead at a homeless camp. Stabbed too. Poor fella, probably didn’t have much, and now this. Life ain’t fair, that’s for sure.
Seems like everyone’s stabbin’ everyone these days. Is it somethin’ in the water? Or maybe people just gettin’ meaner? Used to be you could trust your neighbors, leave your door unlocked. Now, you gotta watch your back everywhere you go.
Makes you afraid to go out, doesn’t it?
Makes me think of my grandbabies. Don’t want them growin’ up in a world like this. A world where you gotta worry about gettin’ stabbed just walkin’ down the street.
Heard some folks say it’s the city’s fault. Not enough police, they say. Or maybe the schools ain’t teachin’ kids right. I don’t know. Just seems like somethin’s broken.
Makes me wish things were simpler, like they used to be. When folks looked out for each other, and violence wasn’t so common. But I guess those days are gone.
- Police arrestin’ people. That’s good, I guess. Gotta do somethin’ to stop all this stabbin’.
Maybe they need to put more people in jail. Or maybe they need to help people who are strugglin’. I ain’t got the answers. All I know is, somethin’ needs to change.
It’s a shame, really. Austin’s a pretty city, used to be so peaceful. Now it’s got all this violence. Makes you sad, doesn’t it? Breaks your heart.
Well, I guess that’s all I got to say about it. Just hope things get better. Hope people stop stabbin’ each other. Hope Austin can be a safe place again.
