Something needs to happen because there’s way too many people losing their lives, and it’s not only about the people who lose their lives, the families of that, the tragedy they go through, the entire community when people are concerned about leaving the house, concerned about doing the day-to-day things of going to work or any number of these things. We really need to reflect on what’s going on. I don’t think enough is being done.
