Re “A new birth of hope,” Jan. 23
I am sure that we are all happy to hear that murders in the Compton area have decreased to about one every 10 days. However, we can’t be very happy to see that “gang-related assaults” average more than one a day.
That does not sound very safe to me. I certainly won’t visit the area, and I wonder just what law enforcement is doing to provide safety for the population in Compton. To be proud of that many assaults just because it’s “improvement” is really shameful.
