We can stop crime in our neighborhoods but we have to take responsibility for what is happening their.  We have to start being neighbors again. We have to practice "see something say something l" and "Faith OVER Fear". It's been said, "stand for something or fall for anything." And, it rings true in regards to stopping crime in our communities. We must stand together and fight this battle. We must police first in our neighborhoods to help law enforcement be effective in policing the city. Faith Abraham  North Pratt Neighborhood Association President  More tips
