I agree with Ms. #PAYTHIA employment and entrepreneurship are key factors in diminishing violence in the US of A. But I have to wonder with the high stakes and profit that acts of violence causes i.e investors (prisons, funeral homes & burials, city government funding and the like) are government & city officials really trying to reduce violence or are they just saying "SIKE" behind our back.
Think about it for a moment; NOTHING has seemed to work in any city in the United States so you have to start asking why & who is at fault for this failure. And yes for all the people with the titles and positions that "serve the people" YOU HAVE FAILED US A LONG TIME AGO! Heck nowadays if there is a murder in your district you don't even bother to visit the family to bestow your condolences. And you want to wonder why ALL of America is paying #Trump some attention. Although I could never vote for a jackass like Trump to be President, One thing for sure he calls a spade a spade!
Where are the people we vote in office when we need them? Probably greasing their pockets cause violence has NOT knocked at their door.
Well I can tell you one thing for sure.....Violence is not something anyone can control or turn off and on and everyone is at-risk. You see violence can strike at any given time; there are no boundaries, no sacred ground. Schools, churches, market, department store, bank, getting into your car, mowing your lawn, sitting in your living room watching tv. Who will speak for victims & victim families? Who are the voices to be heard and more importantly who will listen?
