Today, it's the latter three.
A 15 year old was gunned down in a Loyalsock Township parking lot Saturday night. Someone fired shots at a home in that same area Sunday night.
This follows violence involving young people in several parts of our area. And, we can't forget that two young people are charged with playing a role in the shooting of a Scranton Police detective.
We look for easy answers-- the availability of guns, the prevalence of gangs, the disintegration of family life, and a disregard for human life.
The solutions are complicated.
The politicians are crawling out of the woodwork on this one, pledging more anti gang education in schools and more efforts to curb gang violence.
There is no easy way out of this one.
