Houston has no demilitarized zones and there are no tanks or GIs patrolling my neighborhood streets. If you are in Houston, please contact me and I'll be happy to show you around a great city!
I've had enough of the Houston bashing, it's time to start defending my demilitarized zone,

Sorry, Lucien! I wasn't trying to bash Houston. I just didn't feel as safe around Reliant Park as I did on Disney property in Orlando. Of course, there aren't many places in our country, or the world for that matter, that are as safe as Disney.
The smart aleck side of me wants to point out that my reference to that portion of Houston around Reliant Park as a DMZ was a simile, and not a direct reference to any particular piece of real estate in Houston that was, in fact, demilitarized. The nice guy in me realizes that words can be harsh and I went a bit far in my analysis of Houston.
I'm sure Houston has a kinder, gentler side and I'd like to see it someday.
