Or actually is there any problem at all? Well, there seem to be
problems—Rivers fights with Hammond (and vice versa?), there are no
money for after-school activities, and it is not that important whether
the number of murders actually increases, or whether it was just return
to mean. Why is it so much dependent on the federal budget, cannot
Menino let some money go into anti-crime prevention? Or is it? Actually,
how much The City of Boston spends on this? I should get some kind of
annual reports of TPC and Boston in this area.

Or is there an alternate version, that TPC served its purpose and now
something else should be built up? How much can TPC serve as a provider
of after-school care and high-risk prevention activities? Could and
should they do what DYC is supposed to do (or is it)? Why should it be
done by pastors and not by professionals?

Or is just a simple sad old story of people so celebrating their own
success and trying to make themselves bigger by grandioze plans, that
the original thing is kindly forgotten?

There are so many questions and not enough answers. Even worse, most of
the questions are rather nasty and suspicious, and I have no idea how to
keep myself in believing into innocence until proven guilty and yet to
ask some hard questions those who are ‘suspects’ themselves.
