Urban Terror

Montgomery County, Md., was paralyzed for three weeks by the sniper’s random shootings. Residents are lucky they can now get back to normal lives, and I rejoice with them. I hope we all use this experience to understand better what it is like for residents in many gang-infested urban neighborhoods in our country who live under the same fear of such random death not just for a few weeks but day after day and year after year. Why don’t they get the same press coverage and concern?
