Stopping The Violence in the 513

Recently a lot of efforts are being tried to help minimize the violence in Cincinnati. The first course of "major" action that was taking was a formal Stop the Violence Meeting at the Freedom Center. Apparently it was an African American event. No white City Council member or white official was cited. Now of course this whole stopping the violence has something to do with race, doesn't every issue we have as a whole in Cincinnati? In over the Rhine there has been round the clock police watch going on. But I think that is not helping at all, there has been no report of improvement or non improvement. I personally feel if we are putting our police officers in the"midst of the violence" we should be able to know what is going on at all times. Now Cincinnati officials are putting more police watch in Walnut Hills. So their plan must be to take it one neighborhood at a time. Now seriously do the Officials honestly think that's going to work. Now they don't plan to put any of these police watches in the Surburbs of Cincinnati or the "acceptable" neighborhoods. A big percentage neighborhoods that are being "watched over" are African Amercian communities. Maybe it's just me but isn't that some form of racism? Is there no say in the things going on in his city. Does he not care what's going on in his communties? Or is there something more important than the Citzens of Cincinnati? Of course we can't put all the blame on him but he should have more control and more compassion for the people of Cincinnati.
