			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My main concern about today&#8217;s issues is youth crime and gangs in our city.<br />
I watch the television and read newspapers every evening.  It&#8217;s a really big<br />
issue in our province and people are getting involved and not knowing what<br />
they are getting themselves into.</p>
<p>The youths are just young adults that do stupid things such as break and<br />
enter, stealing vehicles, and causing accidents on the city streets.  My<br />
friends, who are now in the Remand Centre, shared with me some experiences<br />
they had to live with when their so-called friends made them do things in<br />
the days. They say it was part of something that they thought was fun.  I<br />
often asked them &#8220;Why did you choose that kind of life, stealing from people<br />
that work hard for their money?&#8221;</p>
<p>I see and hear about a lot of crime downtown.  Where is the love and respect<br />
that people should show others? Why can&#8217;t we just get along and show our<br />
children and grandchildren that life is not worth wasting? I really wanted<br />
to write something like this because being involved in gangs is just not the<br />
answer for anyone. I have children of my own to raise in a good environment.</p>
