And the reason for the increase in violent crime is?

I live in Omaha and it is both extremely sad and frightening what is happening here. When I moved here in the early 90s, we had no gangs here. Now they are running amok. Illegals are everywhere. Drugs are another big factor. Drive bys and acts of violence like this are increasing by the day. Many younger people don't value human life. They act as though it is a video game they are playing.

Rewards need to be increased to at least get the people who might not otherwise care, to provide information on these violent crimes and put these bastards away or fry them.

While the latest homicide happened in broad daylight in a busy area, a good many of them occur late at night. A curfew might be in order to get a handle on this problem. It wouldn't be necessary if people would take responsibility for their own children, but in certain areas of town it isn't uncommon for a number of youth to be congregating on street corners, etc. There is no reason why a minor needs to be out of the house after midnight. It might not solve the problem, but it would definitely reduce the frequency of these murders.

I'll give you one guess, first a hint, there is a business called Omaha meat packing operation there, need another hint? It's not two far from several others. So you answer may start with ill..... is that a big enough hint?

I don't read the Weird-Herald so I can only guess it has something to do with the temperatures and large numbers of "undocumented workers."
