A novel way to KO violence in Chester

There's something ironic about using boxing to fight violence.

But that is what a couple of entrepreneurs and the city of Chester have in mind. You can catch all the details in John Kopp's lead story here.

The idea is to have kids put down the guns and pick up the boxing gloves.

Kind of hard to argue with that.

If is saves only one kid from being cut down by the seemingly endless scourge of gun violence in Chester, it will be well worth it.

Nothing else has worked.
