Why is that funny? I looked up the story, apparently there is a disproportionate amount of violence and sexual assault in native communities, and this money is being used to combat that.

I would think this is a good thing.

@SumKindaMunster I think it's gonna take more than 10mil allocated to one place with a low population to sort out violence in America.

There needs to be complete social reform. America doesn't look after its people, that's the issue. 100mil won't sort that out.

American fat cats need to start putting their hands in their pockets and doing something about the third world country their living in.

@KaiserSolze I don't agree with that. You'll be waiting a long time for "complete social reform" to happen, if it ever happens. In the meantime this helps a rarely serviced and apparently needy community. It's a start.

@KaiserSolze the amount of money they need gets decided by statistical data. Here you're assuming that $100 million won't be enough however they do it in scientific way.

Whenever excessive amount is used in name of fixing social problems, corruptions happen, which is frequent in developing nations.

That money will be used for cctvs and other equipments necessary to tackle problems. You won't hesitate to bash if you find there's something wrong there but when they try to fix their problems you find faults in that too.

@SW-User America needs to sort out its homeless issue and provide its citizens with free health care.
