Facebook.com groups organizing counter-protests for today sprang up with haste. The group for the counter-protest in Lexington has over 100 attendees. These counter-protests will act as the rational response...
...what can be done: The drug trade tends to infect societies through open wounds: derelict neighborhoods and out of control regions run by war/drug lords. Situational crime prevention instruments can heal these wounds and make them inhospitable to the drug barons.
