State Rep. Justin Slaughter and State Sen. Robert Peters: Community violence intervention saves lives. Keep funding it for public safety’s sake. – Chicago Sun-Times

"This is not about knocking the traditional criminal justice system. Police, courts and prisons still play a key role in our public safety system. But, in communities where a majority of homicides and virtually all non-fatal shootings never lead to an arrest, let alone a conviction, we need every tool in the toolbox."

Funny, the one toolbox in the toolbox they never talk about is hiring more cops.
