Abstract
A traveler visiting the United States will be cautioned about entering particular areas in our urban centers, especially at night. Even if he does not find himself the direct object of assault, he might well be the victim of a stray bullet, fired during the course of a drive-by shooting or an exchange of gunfire between rival gangs. He may discover that violence is not restricted to the evening or to inner city streets, and be struck by television reports of vandalism, extortion, physical attack, guns, and knives and other indices of aggression in the public schools.
