In a Safer Age, U.S. Rethinks Its 'Tough on Crime' System
This article focuses exactly on what the title says, how crime is handled. There has been a significant decrease on crime in the past twenty years, something experts credit an aging population and a law created President Clinton in 1994 which expanded the death penalty and gave states billions to hire more police officers and to build more prisons. But at the same time they are trying to find a way to make sure this decrease in crime continues by creating more beneficial programs for recovering felons or even drug addicts. The topic of police controversy is even touched on and how police are trying to focus on smaller areas rather then looking at the big picture. Along with this, President Obama is creating a police task force that will most likely recommend increases in community policing.

The main point of the essay is that there is a great amount of controversy with immigration and this legislation has created a lot more.
