Take heart, Kansas City!

As we keep saying, we could be Detroit. Or St. Louis. Or, in this case, Chicago: Chicago bloodbath: 6-year-old among those killed. It seems, over the weekend, 41 people in Chicago were shot, ten of them died. One was a 6 year old girl who was killed in a drive-by shooting. Of course, we don't have Chicago's population size but still, they have, clearly, a big, big problem. I'm still hoping this mayor, this police chief and all the civic and church leaders in town can and will finally, finally, get a hold of and solutions to this problem. It's so sick. And so unnecessary.
