BBC World Service - World Have Your Say, Chicago gun violence

How should Chicago combat the violence that has seen 92 murders in August alone?

How should Chicago best combat the violence that has seen 92 murders in August alone?  More people have been killed in the city since 2001 than Americans were killed in Iraq and Afghanistan put together.  Also, after a single mum's post on Facebook about her attending an event for dads and sons went viral, we hear from her and others about what life is like as a single parent.
