Murders in LA are at an astonishing low level. Murders in U.S. cities are at a 50 year low. What is going on? Are the gangsters of the 80s and 90s growing up and realizing that they don't want to see their grandkids dying or am I missing something? Apparently, ex-gang members are working with police to dispel rumors and lower tensions between the gangs.
