(A) they should join forces to prevent crime in the neighborhood rather than continuing to be victimized
(B) that they should join forces to prevent crime in the neighborhood rather than continue to be victimized
(C) about joining forces to prevent crime in the neighborhood instead of continuing to be victimized
(D) for the joining of forces to prevent crime in the neighborhood rather than continue to be victimized
(E) to join forces to prevent crime in the neighborhood rather than continuing to be victimized

we can't break down anything until you cite the original source of the problem.
please read the forum rules!

if you don't cite a source in the next week or two, we will delete the thread, per those rules.

thanks
