Sacramento plans to pay gang members $1.5M to keep the peace

How bad has gun violence gotten in Sacramento, Calif.? City leaders now plan to pay gang members $1.5 million for a cease-fire.

Following a fatal shooting last weekend in a city park, the Sacramento city council unanimously approved a controversial program called Advance Peace in an effort to address a recent spike in violence.

The program offers gang members cash stipends for graduating from school and generally staying out of trouble.

PAY a gang banger to be nice????
Citizens who work and pay their bills, and taxes, and stay out of trouble?
Why don't they send THEM a stipend?

Put the bangers in prison and let them keep the peace THERE.
Is there something in the water out there?
Their politicians have developed a special kind of stupid.

Wrap it up and hand it over, California. You no longer own your own freedom. You have to buy it from the Mafia.
