If officers were able to remove guns from the downtown streets in the crime hot spots where gangs and thugs are usually around, this may have an effect on the amount of crimes which take place. Thus reducing the crime rate.\u003cbr /\u003e Lastly, if community relations were better between residents and officers, this could help drastically. If the citizens like parents of the kids growing up in the area were to also contribute to crime reduction in the city, children could finally start to grow up in a positive and healthy environment. Parents can get involved in many ways; they can get involved with there churches or even after school programs like latchkey or the YMCA to form anti crime charities or fundraisers. \u003cbr /\u003e Detroit may be a down and out city now, but with hard work and determination it\\can all turnaround.

I feel the only way for crime to go down in Detroit, is if the poverty rate will decrease first. If Detroit could attract new businesses and job opportunities to the city, tax revenue would increase and the money attained could go to the Detroit Police Department. The crime prevention programs they have would benefit very much from this.\u003cbr /\u003eI also feel that by adding more officers to the streets and pinpointing hot crime spots, the crime rate in the city will start to slow down and hopefully go down.
