Fair. You can do those kinds of analyses from historical data too, though I don’t think CCTV would have much of an effect. Try free school lunches, after school support, parental benefits etc.

How would providing free school lunches reduce the chance of seeing someone shot?

  • Better nutrition at school increasing attention span and grades, thus increasing hope for alternative life that isn't joining a gang. The reduced stress on family finances could also let them do something like move to a less rough neighbourhood.
