Reducing Crime in Indianapolis

Ok here goes...a summary of some of the stuff necessary for a vibrant, functioning metropolis...
Schools: acknowledge that geographical, sociological and psychological changes has lead to a huge change in people, particularly youth. Any vet teacher worth their salt will tell you this. So we need school leadership that understands and acknowledges this, implements discipline and educational strategies that address this truth, and then integrates its work with that of law enforcement and the communities.
Communities: the neighborhood association is the local government in Indy, and has been since Unigov. To work effectively, they need leadership that takes the community interests into account, works with surrounding communities to push out the gumbahs, and to strengthen the sense of community so vital to Indy...Law enforcement gains the trust of individuals and communities who would come forward to rat out the miscreants and thugs. Law enforcement can act only after the fact, can do some proactive work, but depends upon the support of the community to effectively do its job.
