More than two dozen people watched as two men stopped their fistfight and picked up shotguns just over a week ago. When the dispute on Carl Street ended, one of them was dead and four others were wounded. But even with all those witnesses to the shooting, police have had a hard time getting people to cooperate and provide information. |

Good idea. Pay witnesses to testify. That will only incentivize people to lie.
How about locking the miscreants up. That is the only tool proven to reduce crime, shootings and killings.
The liberals created this problem with their plea bargains, probation, and lack of effective sentences that make the justice system a farce. As long as the criminals don't fear the police or the justice system, crime will only increase. |

TO REMEMBER |
| [The American Colonies were] all democratic governments, where the power is in the hands of the people and where there is not the least difficulty or jealousy about putting arms into the hands of every man in the country. [European countries should not] be ignorant of the strength and the force of such a form of government and how strenuously and almost wonderfully people living under one have sometimes exerted themselves in defence of their rights and liberties and how fatally it has ended with many a man and many a state who have entered into quarrels, wars and contests with them. — George Mason, "Remarks on Annual Elections for the Fairfax Independent Company" in The Papers of George Mason, 1725-1792, ed Robert A. Rutland (Chapel Hill, 1970). |
