In Dallas, as anywhere else in Texas, be careful knocking on strangers' doors. An incident a few years ago involving a teenage exchange student and a HPD cop was the most blatant example I've seen, but yesterday the keyboardist for Edie Brickell and the New Bohemians found out for himself...

I think using the Texas Bill here as an example is jumping the gun (pun intended). We still don't know what the freak was doing in the first place by trying to kick down the door?
