Snyder said his plan is "not specifically on any one incident, but a comprehensive improvement to public safety. It won't solve everything, but with a real investment over an extended period of time, I believe we can make a huge difference."

Look out!  That's Lefty Obama type talk for raising fees and taxes to pay for something that doesn't work.

Even Bing sees the problem that throwing whatever amount of money at it isn't going to fix it.

Mayor Dave Bing today called on parents to better raise their children in the wake of a disturbing spate of violence involving young people in Detroit.

His voice rising at times, Bing said what was especially jarring to him were crimes in which youngsters attack their parents. He said those kinds of incidents hurt him deeply and are simply "unacceptable."

"When you've got parents afraid of their kids, you know you have not done a good job as a parent," Bing said in a news conference in his 11th floor conference room at City Hall. "You need to start disciplining those young people when they come out of the womb. Mothers and fathers ... you can't start disciplining a kid at the age of 12 or 14, it's too late."
