Question of the Month

What do you think could help curtail the recent onslaught of teen violence in the local area?
Local Responses:

Jason Castaneda

"They need something to give them a sense of ownership in the community in which they live. Lacking this; the violence does not matter to them because it does not affect “their” community. Any/all violence is seen as a series of unconnected events and not as a “community problem”."

Alan Forsythe

"They are lacking the guidance from their parents."

Tamala Khamdeth

"It’s all on TV, people on TV can get away with it and they think they can too.
Also a lot of teens are messing with drugs and they just don’t care.
Better role models and prevention of drug use are needed."
