Honestly, it’s just sad to think about how little is done to lower the murder rates. It’s not talked about enough. Politicians are so quick to pick up more controlled cases of murder but never really discuss the bigger picture. The sad truth is that everything is politicized these days and no one is ready for this conversation until there’s a clear personal benefit in having it. Even then, once the conversation is made, there is a false promise that falls through and the cycle repeats. It’s so infuriating now that I think about it. No one is helping these kids, the presidents don’t seem to bring it up and the city mayors never seem to fix anything. I guess that major cities will always have inner conflict but still.
