Crime in the United States has increased dramatically in the past two year,s particularly in Democrat-controlled cities (“U.S. facing biggest homicide rate increase in 60 years,” Web, Sept. 23).

Not only that, but we have seen the release from prison of both assassins and would-be assassins of presidents and potential presidents. Both Sirhan Sirhan and John Hinkley Jr. have been ordered released from incarceration. Such crimes should be lifetime sentences at least.
