[Mpls] Our City's Response to Crime on the Northside?

[Dyna Sluyter]

	For the next few days there's a big convention in town of association 
executives, the folks who decide where conventions will be held. And 
while citizens are fleeing Minneapolis' crime, our mayor and other 
civic cheerleaders will be busy at the airport trying to woo future 
conventioneers.

	R.T. and Council Members, I know we have more than a few millions 
invested in the Hilton and it's be nice to keep it full, but aren't we 
Minneapolis citizens at least as important as conventioneers? I'm going 
to invest a six figure sum in property somewhere in the next few years, 
wouldn't you rather make Minneapolis safe so I and my fellow citizens 
can invest in Minneapolis? And are not the life investments of 
Minneapolis citizens more important than conventioneer here for but a 
few nights?

        Awaiting some answers in Hawthorne,
                Dyna Sluyter
