The fact that there is so much buzz about this shows that we live in a very safe community. I'm not naive and think that crimes don't happen here, but we are much safer here than in almost any community in this country. Especially communities of over 100,000 people.

This was a violent crime! The guy got out with a baton and attacked two people. I realize it isn't like shooting someone, but this is a serious incident. I give kudos to the Sun for reporting it. Sure it's isolated, but don't think it can't or won't happen again.
Now I don't think the sky is falling but I do believe every aspect of our society is getting more violent by the day. JMHO.
