thank god they're recovering...but it's still horrible

This reminds me of therapy. When I encounter parents who say a behavior is “not ok” and every day the child keeps doing the same behavior! How about you stop talking and declare a national emergency or martial law to stop your citizens being killed!

“This is not ok”. So DO something about it. If a toddler hits another toddler, you can say “That’s not ok.”, but if they do it again? You remove them from the room and let them know you’re not going to let it keep happening, no matter what, for the safety of the rest of the kids. We’re not removing these people from society for their adult time out in prison, and the good people are suffering for it.

"We need commisioner to step up to the plate and do her part (resigning) so that a more qualified person can send out qualified cops ..its not the people job.to confront bastards(no daddy) with guns

Can we get more surveillance? Can we get more sweeps?
Can we get more follow ups with felons & prior offenders?
We need to be stringent

Democrats or Republicans won't change the problem enough. It's a sin nature problem. Not saying it's right, just typing how it is.
