When It Comes To Our Doorstep...


Once again we see that the best writers in America's newspapers are often on the sports pages. Today Dave Krieger of the Rocky Mountain News interviews former Senator Ben Nighthorse Campbell about the gang problem in Denver. As Campbell points out, it is not just Denver, it is every urban area in America. More importantly, Campbell says that when it is no longer black on black or brown on brown, and becomes black on white or brown on white, it will become a higher priority for our elected officials. Until then, I guess we will just pretend the problem does not exist.
