Thanks for the article. There never has been a time in history that there hasn't been some bad element in society that will do harm to people. Frankly, I think we have too much news 24 hours a day. We don't need to know about a car/truck wreck hundreds of miles away from where we live. That goes for faraway murders, etc. The entertainment news magazine shows have these case histories day after day. When you consider all the channels, there are several of these each week. We have our children scared to go outside. Yes, there are some neighborhoods that are dangerous, but the vast majority are not. Enough is enough.
