Reliance on brute force as our primary mode of problem solving is not the way to end violence; it is the way to perpetuate its vicious cycle.

As President I will establish a Department of Peace. We will harness the powers of peace building, particularly among women and children, to begin to transform both our domestic and international landscapes.

Electing leftist DA's does effect safety on our streets, it makes it more dangerous.

Marianne,the military congressional industrial complex as you know gets a blank check & has tremendous power. Why not use political jujitsu & prose the military builds things that actually keep us safe like housing, schools, transportation, energy grids etc? Adaptive change.

Do you have data for that and how would you even verify it, having a strong military makes countries like Russia and China think twice about making a move on us. Stop worrying about the military spending and start being concerned with congress wanting to lower taxes on the rich

Lax enforcement of laws against property crime only emboldens criminals. Does that make us any safer?
