Interesting to me
It’s been widely reported (and rightly so) that homicides in Philidelphia have been out of control. However, overall gun crime is down:
Under a federal program initiated last year, crimes committed with firearms have dropped significantly in one of the most violent sections of the city, authorities announced yesterday.
As a result, the program will be expanded to another section of West Philadelphia, with an eye toward other neighborhoods.
This federal program consists of extra manpower to enforce existing gun laws.
