A week or two ago, a 3 year old was shot while in his Father's arms at a front-yard party on the East side.
Now, today, I find a 10 year old has been shot.
What is it going to take for the people in these neighborhoods to get upset and do somethingabout this?
What are the churches in these neighborhoods doing?
Is there no uproar?
Are you people going to tolerate this crap?
Because if you are, we sure aren't going to get upset for you.
Seriously, what is it going to take?
How many people--children, adults, everyone--have to be shot until a large group stand up and make it clear they aren't going to put up with it any longer?

Honestly, what can they do? Move, if they can afford to. I see them as being trapped in the situation. What can the churches do that will stop people shooting one another?
There but for the grace of God go I. Of course, out here in the relative safety of the countryside, I have two convicted felons living next door.
Great question and, to an extent, I agree.
and yet, I think they could and would get together with their neighbors and friends and church and fellow church members and organize. Someone has to know who some of the "bad eggs" are, don't you think? There has to be some awareness and then show that awareness to these knuckleheads w/ the guns.
I'd also get w/ the police and at least ask questions, if not more than that.
