We understand that this high murder rate is not directly his fault. But he needs to show leadership and convince the people that he is going to find the answer and make a priority of getting the murder rate down.
I did hear he was going to move the deck chairs around on the titanic a little bit, so I will wait and hear what he has to say when he does that.
