"She is the only sheriff in America who is an openly gay Hispanic woman."

Drat those heteronormative racist sexist white males! If it weren't for them every city in America would have an openly-gay Hispanic woman sheriff!

wow. what a load of total bullshit.

also, didn't realize the sheriff was a homosexual mexican woman. but that makes sense when a city falls to the democrat machine.

recall only 2 months ago when aaron alexis killed 12 people at a naval yard, and the gaggle of 'authority' figures who stood in front of the camera in washington DC every few hours to give us updates on the situation. there was not one heterosexual european man.

Was the Climate of Hate in Memphis to blame for the assassination of Martin L. King? Was the Climate of Hate in Los Angeles to blame for the assassination of Robert F. Kennedy? Was the Climate of Hate in New York City to blame for the assassination of Malcolm X? Is the idea of a Climate of Hate reserved for Dallas alone? It reminds me of that fairy-tale-ish notion of a "Decade of Greed" applied to the 1980s. A spin the Left can put on something when it wants to.

And the tension between past and present has unleashed a wave of citywide self-reflection a half-century later in a distinctly American place that is part Dallas Cowboys, part Texas excess and part urban melting pot, where the public school students come from homes where 70 languages are spoken. Painful, embarrassing memories of the angry anti-Washington culture that flourished here 50 years ago – and now seems a permanent part of the national mood – have resurfaced, confronting Dallasites daily.


This means that not only the liberals are responsible for Texas current messed but the Republicans love those different language groups for buying consumer goods and cheap labor.

Yeah, but read about Hilgado Texas the fastest growing in the state and its not the white suburbs like you think. New York still has lower poverty even if cost of living is included. It just the New York City area that is really high. Northern New York kicks the cloak out of Hilagdo Texas and El Paso. Texas is not kicking the cloak out of New York, right wing conservatives are being deceived, Texas its headed in the other direction a Mexican low wage place with some nice white suburbs.

I don't buy that.

Northern NY is an economic wasteland and has been since GE departed. Northern NY lives off NYC and has no jobs, no industry, nothing but government and high end professional jobs. Everybody else is a low wage servant.

Friends have been departing NY/NJ in large numbers over the past 10 years and heading straight for TX. They love it. Most of them are in the medical professions. Wages are not much lower, but taxes are much much much lower.

A decent house in suburban NY/NJ on a postage stamp lot costs $500,000. Add on $12,000 in real estate taxes. A decent house in TX on a big lot costs $250,000. I'd bet real estate taxes are 1/4 of NY/NJ.

Everybody I know who has made the move to TX is very happy. Particularly with the warm weather.

Since 9/11 took place in NY, when will NYers ever face up to their responsibility for what happened?
Never mind Jihadists did it. It happened IN New York, and there were many radical NYers who had spewed hatred against America for a long time. It was, after all, the home of leftwing radical Jewish politics that had once even apologized for Stalin, Mao, and other communist movements(and their allies here such as the Black Panthers).

So, it doesn't matter than radical Muslims did it, or that the Mossad may have known what was up but didn't share the info with US intelligence.

What matters is it happened IN New York, and that means New Yorkers must face up to their responsibility for what happened. New York has long been a city of hate. Hatred toward Christianity, rural America, white conservatives, patriotism, the American South, Republicans, and etc. During the 2004 convention, 100,000s of NYers marched spewing hatred and carrying placards that called Bush II 'Bushitler'.
And of course, as the global center of Zionist finance and power, it was also the center of hatred against the Muslim/Arab world.

So, when will NYers finally wake up and face up to their responsibility for what happened on 9/11? NY must stop being the city of hate.

new york is depopulating and there is nothing going on there at all outside of new york city. i lived in new york for 4 years. buffalo is even under threat of losing ownership of it's NFL team to canada.

between 2000 and 2010 the population of new york increased only 2%. this is from immigrants moving into new york city. the rest of the people in the state are leaving. many places in new york are slowly becoming reclaimed wilderness similar to michigan.

without immigrants moving into new york city, new york would have negative population growth. the cities and towns in the rest of the state are emptying out.

Liar. No one could possibly know such a thing.

Lies. No one remembers such a culture, if it ever existed, and no one is embarrassed. Nor has this dubious culture resurfaced.

Blocks from Dealey Plaza, the windows of restaurants and the lobbies of hotels are plastered with posters reading “Love” – a nonprofit group’s campaign, using artwork by schoolchildren and others, to counter the City of Hate label given Dallas after the assassination.

Impossible. There is no such label to "counter". If such a label ever stuck to Dallas, it has long since worn off.

This past February, in West Texas, the sheriff in Midland County, Gary Painter, said at a John Birch Society luncheon that he would refuse to confiscate people’s guns from their homes if ordered by the Obama administration and referred to the president’s State of the Union address as “propaganda.”

Sorry NYT, I wish there were more sheriffs like Gary Painter. (I've never heard a State of the Union speech I would describe as anything other than propaganda.)

I was trying to explain to out-of-state friends, who were visiting Dallas, what the difference was between Sheriff and Constable.

My friend, the Constable, walks up and my friends quickly ditch me for the real thing.

"What's the difference between you and the Sheriff?" they asked him.

"Well, for one, the Sheriff is a bald lesbian."

And that, my friends, is how you get people to vote for you.

Very good point. I have to assume that it was the crushing climate of hate in New York that killed John Lennon. And San Franciso - that notoriously hateful and homophobic cauldron of, well, of hate - killed Harvey Milk.

"Lee Harvey Oswald was a Marxist and not a product of right-wing Dallas. But...."

Why is that every time liberals attempt to make a point, they dragoon into their service the Almighty "But"? You never hear the "But" from sensible, grounded individuals; yet you hear the Almighty "But" from liberals as if it were the World's Supervening Dispensation to their historically discredited notions and costly, abysmally ineffectual, poisonous, destructive programs.

The editorial continues, "[B]ecause the anti-Kennedy tenor came not so much from radical outcasts but from parts of mainstream Dallas, some say the anger seemed to come with the city’s informal blessing."

So it was "anger" that murdered John F. Kennedy! Anger! Not the Communist Oswald - no! - it was "anger"! Just as "terrorism" murders all the victims of Islam's jihadists! Just as "workplace violence" murdered fourteen souls at Fort Hood! Just as "alienation" murdered & maimed Americans at the Boston Marathon! All of this bullsh_t is, of course, why the Left is hell-bent on outlawing "hate" and "offense," and "racism" and "extremism" - except, of course for the hate and offense, racism and extremism the Left itself cherishes and uses to flay those whom its groupthink stooges finger as their enemies.

When you stop and think, you realize that Oswald won: today's Left is nothing like its putative hero JFK and is very much like Lee Harvey Oswald, fluent in Oswald's brand of evasion & well-rehearsed doubletalk.

After addressing the uncomfortable fact of LHOs affiliation as Steve rightly pointed out hidden somewhere in the middle of the column(the equivalent on burying an important story on page 12), we immediately get a lame caveat "some say" talking very vague "parts" of mainstream Dallas

Note the entire argument of the column hinges on this "some say" qualifier.
Utterly sloppy thinking and as another commenter noted sloppy writing/copy editing

I just posted something to this effect but you beat me to it Auntie!
Your take is more articulate anyhow

I think liberals like assigning blame to abstract phenomena like those you mentioned-alienation,anger at such because not because they are useful to beat the right with.More importantly if the problems are indeed diagnosed as such then the liberals are in the happy positions of prescribing solutions via statism.That means high paying jobs in think tanks,academia,government beureacracies,consultants to large corporations,"non profit" organizations

I was working in downtown San Francisco on the day that a woman tried to shoot President Ford. I was literally a block away. When I went out to get lunch there were all these police around.

Another woman tried to shoot him in Sacramento shortly thereafter (or was it shortly before?).

Yet there don't seem to have been any articles or editorials about California 'The State of Hate'.

Reagan was shot about a block from my apartment in Washington DC. Again there was no geographical condemnation of the city.

The Dallas meme somehow got started and now weak minded media people can't resist trotting it out again every couple years.

Kennedy beat Nixon in Texas by a 2% margin or 46k votes. Too wide of a margin for fraud really to be an issue. Texas voting Kennedy in '60 was a function of the South being solid Democrat, or at least the tail end of that era.

Dallas County did vote Nixon very heavily, though.

"Was the Climate of Hate in Memphis to blame for the assassination of Martin L. King?"

According to nearly all of the national political commentators waxing poetic every 1/15 and 4/4, it was. They also mention the sense of dread hanging over the city that locals seem unaware of as they go about their daily lives. They project their own feelings onto a city whose people never really think about the event or feel any shame over it.

I am confused about one thing, though. When the liberals have such undisguised contempt for a people and their culture, and when the left applauds the displacement of those people as a desirable and fitting outcome, why don't more people get mad.

The NYT is absurdly using the deed of a communist assassin to denigrate Texans and their heritage. So why aren't there more Gary Painters down there pushing back against the left? There ought to be.

P.S. Is it just me, or is there an echo of Reconstruction here? I.e., the alliance of the (northern) national power centers with empowered local minorities (such as the sheriff) against the old order. One could throw in the willingness of some business types to go along for the sake of making a buck, too.

In the 1970s, there was a strong push to tear down the shuttered Texas School Book Depository. A handful of leaders, including Wes Wise, then the mayor, succeeded in preserving the redbrick building, which the county bought in 1977. The top two floors were later turned into a museum. Now, more than 320,000 people each year stand next to Oswald’s sniper’s perch on the sixth floor and peer out the windows at Dealey Plaza below.

Because turning the place into a tourist attraction where people can recreate the morbid frisson of a notorious murder is the highest form of solemn commemoration.
