People in NYC are getting gunned down in broad daylight.

Re: 'Enough Is Enough': Atlanta Mayor Calls For Violence To End After Child Killed
Can you guys quit this? You guys are running too much with this. No one wants to get rid of the police. Some may want to take a look at their budget. What's wrong with that? Fiscal conservatives do that all the time. Should the military have a run away budget? Can it be looked at? Why should the police be any different.
If NYC police budget is 6 billion, they decide to take 1 billion away and give to schools..... Then what's the issue? They defunded 1 billion away from the police.

Re: 'Enough Is Enough': Atlanta Mayor Calls For Violence To End After Child Killed
I grew up in the city. I'm out of solutions. I do know that if there are any, it has to start with the citizens. Hell I even proposed that me and some of my friends who own weapons to start a neighborhood patrol. Armed. That wouldn't have ended well, lol. I still care though.
I used to be able to reach them when I was younger. I don't know now. Some of these kids are way out there. They are hardened even before reaching puberty. Boys and girls. I remember this one young man I met at my cousins funeral in the late '90's. Really smart kid. We talked about chess and chemistry. Eventually he stopped calling. Never knew what happened to him.

I can see it now, "STOP beating that woman or I'll go to court and get a restraining order! It's not your fault that you're engaged in criminal activities, it's the SYSTEM that has let you down. Let me give you therapy, as long as I'm on the other side of the bullet-proof glass, and we will get to the historical root-causes that made you steal, injure, and even kill your fellow citizens."
What's wrong with that? ... Bc
