Everyone agrees: Five Points is a problem area for Columbia. But until everyone agrees on exactly what that problem is, it won’t be fixed. The shooting that left our fellow Gamecock, 18-year-old Martha Childress, paralyzed from the waist down is another on a long list of tragedies that could have been avoided if everyone with an opinion on the bar district’s woes did have “a 100 percent accurate idea of what’s going on.” We think it’s obvious: The two major factors in Five Points crime are gang violence and what truly is a “revolving door” judicial system.

The University of South Carolina does everything it can to reach its students, including social networking.
Is the sky falling for our Gamecocks as we watch Jadeveon Clowney’s legacy tarnish after sitting out Saturday without warning coach Steve Spurrier? Probably not, but that’s what the likes of ESPN want you to think. A miscommunication like that between a high-profile player and his notoriously outspoken coach is the kind of story that sports journalists live for, but we can be thankful that most of the reporting was a bit sensational.
