re: Detroit PD and prayer

Here's another way to decrease violent crimes:

"It is up to the citizens to report the kinds of crimes -- such as domestic violence -- that can lead to homicides, police leaders said."

And another way is to get to children while they are young. Stop letting them see violence in the home, and teach them that resolving problems with violence only hurts and doesn't help (and NOOOO, that doesn't mean proper discipline that involves some form of corporal punishment, because I don't care what anyone says, some of these bad ass kids today sure could use it).

*weary of bad news...*
