"Gun violence”, what’s “gun violence”?
There are violent people,but can there be violent inanimate objects?
When OJ killed those two people, was that due to “knife violence”?
For those of you who write stories for the media,please remember that words have meanings - learn the proper usage and use them appropriately.

Good point, Dave.

Dave. Exactly. How about club violence, or car violence, or book violence, or fist violence. These people are way too PC to even begin a rational discussion. They are involved in communist-type lies and word misplacements.

It seems that you just can’t win on this one. When the cops patrol the areas where most of the violence is happening, residents complain that they are being harassed.
When the cops don’t patrol high crime areas, residents complain that the police don’t care. Then there is the fact that shootings are taking place practically everywhere. The killers are mobile and no place is safe anymore. Not malls, city parks, schools. Maybe we should go after the gangs with the goal of identifying the gang leaders. Then hitting them with very harsh prison time for terrorism, murder, conspiracy to commit murder and drug charges. I don’t know. I’m just clutching at straws here.
