(The following appeared in the July 13th edition of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.)
Milwaukee Police Chief Ed Flynn is off to a good start curbing gun violence with his neighborhood patrol task force, but after July 4th carnage, he needs more citizen cooperation, with or without financial reward.

Law enforcement, politicians and community activists should join forces to remind everyone that collective inaction will produce nothing but more premature funerals.
