"The job of taking back our streets requires an all-out assault on every front," said Mayor David Dinkins. "We must restore confidence and security...

The suit, which asserts that none of the detained youths were gang members, is the latest in a swelling number of complaints charging that the L.A.P.D. and Los Angeles County sheriff's officers' much publicized all-out war against gangs and drugs is being waged indiscriminately on law-abiding black and Hispanic citizens...
