“Dear St. Louis: If we want to fix our problems, we must measure and own them, and then move in unison and with speed to address them,” he said in his five-tweet message. “So in the case of crime, we leaders must stop rationalizing poor crime stats by discussing the city and county separation. Rather, let’s put the crime stats front and center, and then collectively own the responsibility to improve them, from private to public. The same should apply to many St. Louis’ other struggles, from social to economic, which are (a) very real; and (b) largely intertwined. I am still incredibly bullish on St. Louis, but today, I am pissed off. Do better, St. Louis.”
