There's seems to be a common theme in this violence.

[mr.durden]

Its sad that these poor children had their lives cut short by careless monsters. The culture in those neighborhoods needs to change. Bring back the culture of their great grandparents, a culture of family and respect. Abandon the Hollywood Democrat immorality that has plagued these communities for decades.

An effective police department could work with this community to rid itself of gang activity.

Wow another amazing march
Yeah thats worked so well
How about some more prayer light vigils to

[beyondhuman]

In order to truly end gun violence humanity has to purge the violence within themselves.

[sdkid]

And, what demographic of people are responsible for this ??

[noahenglert]

bruh it's not gun violence!!! it's the lack of them caring for life, nothing will change until these communities start caring about life

[Mikethecoolguy]

More legal gun owners equals less violence

[chrism]

I can't imagine how this would dissuade the marginal shooter.

[SavageFoxProductions]

Hmmm seems to me they was aiming for the parents and you dont get shot at for nothing

[DogmaDisputant]

I refuse to go to any establishment that has any male joggers in it. I’m not willing to give up my life or property just because those in charge are unwilling to target those responsible for all of the violence and crime in the metro.

Look within your own community, neighbors, family members.

If you actually want to stop a vast majority of of the violence
Here is what would work very fast. Start charging the parents for the crimes their underage children are committing!
Their child kills someone, they get charged for the murder right along with their child! Their child robs someone, they get charged with robbery. It doesn’t matter if the father or mother is or isn’t in the child’s, life they get charged as well. I bet that would stop them from having multiple kids with numerous women and men .They want to hold gun manufacturers responsible for the guns they make, do the same to the parents for the thugs they create . I bet crime would come down very quickly!!

I wished I'd known who did it, I then would split the rewards between the families who lost their loved ones.
