Guns and Colorado
#2
Structurally the article represents a model that can be applied to any state in the nation.

This quote is most telling:

“Where there’s poverty, there’s drugs – drugs and alcohol,” she said. “Where there’s drugs and alcohol, there will be guns. Therefore there will be crime.”

There is definitely poverty and guns in Pikes Peak Park – and it is nothing new. "

I assume there are more articles to come ? This one represents death in a disintegrating poor neighborhood. I can see the same thing in a 1940's 'model suburb near where I work . I have family that saw the same thing in a disintegrating neighborhood in St. Louis, and ended up moving out to keep their children safe.

What's the root cause ? Poverty. Right ?
