"Even if you took all the guns off the street, from the law-abiding citizens, the others who mean harm, who mean to kill and mayhem, they're going to have the guns," she said. "So we have to figure out what's going on in our communities. We have to find the right problem, so that we can come to the right solution." She said the criminal justice system needed to be tougher on those who commit crimes.

"When do we say enough is enough? When do we say that?" she asked. "How many more people have to die before we say you're going to jail. We're going to lock you up and there's not going to be any bail so that we can have safety in our communities. When does that happen? Who is in charge? Is that the mayor? Is that the chief? Who is that? Let's start naming names."
