Teen crime

So finally the red top papers have got around to "tackling knife crime." It's not as if we didn't know about it.
But what can be done about urban areas that have been no-go areas for a long time now. Are they really left alone to "police" themselves? Is there some underlying cultural issue to do with male dominance, rites of passage.
And what about the drug culture? What looks glamourous on Amy Winehouse is a lot less so without rockstar mansions and luxury rehab. (actually I really like Amy Winehouse.)
Or is it just the tabloids scaremongering again?
