There was no way that Brian Kemp's "oversight" of his own election for governor could be seen in good faith. He should have at the very least, resigned once he won his primary to avoid the appearance of impropriety. As with the President that he emulates, self awareness is not one of his strong suits.
That is the most asinine idea to cross this letter section in a while. More school resource officers, yes. This illogical mess, no. Come back when you get a clue.
It's great to have conversations about what ails the city, in light of tragic events. Dialogue is good, but action is better. We are two years removed from the most divisive mayoral campaign in my memory, and what do we have to show for it? Crime has gotten worse, albeit the efforts of Chief Lumpkin and his officers. They can respond to the problem, but they can't solve it by themselves. It takes collective action. The first thing must be an investment in our neighborhoods, mainly by parents stepping up and restoring discipline to their children. Emphasis on education is key. Secondly, our city leaders need to develop a long term vision for the city, to encourage educated yoing people to put down roots here, and not flee as soon as they get their degree. Imagine what Savannah radio would be like if Kenya Cabine had run back to Atlanta in 1998. We need a thousand more like him to invest their lives here. This place has potential. We need to live up to it.
