Solutions

That's the title of an e-mail I received, and the sad reason why we have the Solutions blog.
"I am related to Rolland Holloway, the latest victim of the senseless crime that is plaguing our streets," they write.
"I would first like to say that Roland was no GANG MEMBER!!. However he was a father of three children that are now left without a father.
"When they ask me why did this happen to daddy? I sit there dumb founded without being able to offer a response. Who will they call daddy now?"
Rolland Holloway was shot to death early last Saturday in the alley behind his Pomona aprtment. He was 31.
They also shot his girlfriend, Pamela Campbell. She died later at a hospital.
Rolland and Pamela are victims number six and seven since 3-year-old Ethan Esparza was gunned down outside his grandparents' home last Nov. 19.
Six people shot to death. One stabbed.
One more family left to wonder why a good man had to die.
"These are questions I would like to ask those that are responsible ... " Rolland's family wrote.
His family people need to stand up to evil.
"People must stand up for our streets and families against these people ..."
Someone out there knows who "these people" are.
It's past time for you to stand up.

Holloway was a good family man, friends said. He loved his dhlidren.
Cool people, another remembered.
