Hoosiers Ate My Brain has a good post on the “Indianapolis Crime Wave.” (From my perspective here in the sticks, however, 91 looks a lot like 70 or whatever the “normal” number of murders is in Indianapolis.) I was amused by her complaint about the evening news leading with dead penguins in a truck accident over murders of, say, humans. That’s McNews for you.
HAMB offers up some bullet points on the situation, including some thoughts on poverty, race relations, gentrification, heat, the Marion County prosecutor’s race, inaction by just about everyone, and some recommended reading.
Thanks for the link and mention.
