Safety has been the word of the week from city and state leaders. We have arrived at the long Memorial Day weekend which marks the unofficial start to summer. An estimated 40 million people will be on the move. Highways and airports will be busy. The arrival of summer also means summer vacation for students. Violent crime increases in summer months and cities are taking steps to keep kids safe.
