Shot spotters is terrifying. If it ever gets installed where I live, I'm not living there anymore.

Edit: I'm an idiot

In case you are mistaken, this is not about the ShotSpotter tech, but funding grassroots organizations to help prevent violence. $10mil is a lot to give out tho… I have a bit of skepticism personally. Also what a name choice lol

Oh good. I should really read the articles instead of the headlines... it does seem like a large amount for what it is

We're trying to get rid of ours in Chicago.

What organizations does Chicago fund? Were they seen as ineffective?

It seems made the same mistake as the other commenter. I didn't read the article either and thought it was about the ShotSpotter tech. You caught me with my pants down!
