      <![CDATA[Tacitus,<br><br>Johnson Countians may, indeed, be primarily concerned with "real-estate value" --but that is yet another reason why they *should* be concerned about this issue. The premise of Mike B. Rollen's movie is based on the original research of Tony Rizzo (K.C. Star)--and that research shows the while the criminals may statistically be *from* 64130, the crimes they commit may be far and wide in the metro region--and that cannot bode well for "property values" *anywhere* in the area.

      <![CDATA[Bill - <br><br>I know what you're getting at; and I'm sure the folks in 64130 are well aware of their circumstances. I'm not criticizing Rollens - I wouldn't pretend to have the credentials to do so.

      <![CDATA[This is a very good trailer, I would like to see the whole film.<br><br>I also am on a champion called "Put Down The Guns" formed by Rev. G.C. Jones;<br><br> I'm just wondering what needs to be done to get this message across to our youth and community so it "can" make a difference in the years to come?<br><br> I'm not from here I see the need for activist to unite and work continously not just a day or two, but 365 and it can be done. <br><br>It will take shift work and needs to be worked just like a job: 7-3, 3-11, 11-7...<br><br>email me on anything up coming, I'm sure my pastor and our champion will be glad to help...God bless
