Friday's shooting resulted in one death. Hopefully we can get through the weekend without a shooting.

After rash of gun violence toward kids, Milwaukee officials plead with parents to do better (www.jsonline.com)

DO BETTER

Some parents have children just to get money from the government. Those "parents" don't care about their children. They're NOT going to "do better".

DPW to replace concrete bump-out metal signage with plastic poles after dozens were hit (www.tmj4.com)

Kevin Muhs is the city engineer. He says the bump-out poles have been smashed more times than DPW anticipated.

I predicted these wouldn't work and now we see that not only do they NOT stop people from speeding and driving recklessly, it costs additional tax dollars to fix them. The money used installing these things should have gone towards enforcement instead.

This is very disappointing. Why couldn't the city work with the buyer instead of fighting them?

It's so important for the police to connect with the community, especially children. This is why it's great news that police officers will be back in Milwaukee public schools.
