Better idea.

Cordon off 4 square block with 15 ft high fence with one entrance/exit gate. Put all gang members and other known trouble makers in the fenced in area. Make sure each individual in compound has a choice of two weapons and unlimited ammunition.

Clear the area for two blocks around the “arena” let them go at it until the last one left standings is declared the winner. The prize is $10,000,000 and a one way ticket out of the country to any location he/she desires and which will have
them.

Repeat every month.

I always thought we should bring dueling back.

An Armed Society is a Polite Society.

As true today as it was the day the phrase was coined.

I doubt boxing will help... they still want to kill each other.

How about pistol duels at 20 paces?

And then the losing side opens fire on the winner’s side. Return fire until shooting stops. 2 leaderless and severely weakened gangs leave.
Win-win.

People from these areas have shootouts at funerals, baby showers, and “Stop the Violence” rallies. What would they do at a boxing match to amp up the excitement?

Probably what would solve many of this loser city’s problems is to throw all the DIM politicians and their rabble in prison...or exile them.

Obviously, the only reason “midnight basketball” didn’t work was that it should have been “1 AM basketball”.

“2 leaderless and severely weakened gangs leave.
Win-win.”

That would be a good outcome, but all the evidence is that gang-bangers can’t hit the broad side of a barn.

Then I’ll bet TPTB would spend millions of tax dollars trying to prosecute the survivors, instead of just setting up another match.

I mean Mosbey. shes a lawyer breaking the law promoting a violent crime, shes out of her mind. shes not licensed to create violent programs out of thin air, shes in violation of ethical rules that should NOT be breached, yet she still has a license and a job.

“What are you going to do about a fighter that takes a dive and costs those that bet on him a lot of money”

That should be good for another round of dead gang-bangers.
