LinkLinksOpinion Washington Post Editorial Board: D.C. now has a director of gun violence prevention. It’s about time. By Editor On Feb 9, 2021 Last updated Feb 9, 2021 21 Share WHEN D.C. ended last year with more homicides than there had been in 15 years, we criticized city officials for giving mere lip service to the epidemic of gun violence instead of treating it like the public health emergency it is. So the recent appointment of the city’s first Gun Violence Prevention director is a welcome development. We hope it signals new seriousness and new thinking about bringing together all the resources of government and community to tackle the scourge of gun violence. 21 Share FacebookTwitterReddItWhatsAppEmailPrint
