In Los Angeles, to avoid cutting the LAPD, Mayor Villaraigosa's making an end-run on the city charter to cut back on parks and recreation instead. What about gang prevention in housing projects? Also, state lawmakers ask questions about the safety of nuclear power plants and gas pipelines. On our rebroadcast of today's To the Point, is there an end game for the attack on Libya?
