Vice News Response

I agree with the video on Vice News "Do You Trust The Police" , the stereotype's on police being the enemy with certain cultures is common. The reason for this is because of the past situations that involved racial issues with civilians and the law enforcement. The People in The U.S that were interviewed fall into this category. I believe that although there are bad guys, there are good guys. Therefore, at the end of the day people need to remember that cops are human too. I don't believe that extra weapons or force is necessary at all times, however I do think that for certain occasions it is, because the police also need protection. other countries have different issues like Mexico. The Mexican men interviewed both didn't seem happy with the Mexican police, and that's due to the corruption in Mexico and drug wars.

Reflection on Chicago's gun violence

http://masetv.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/dont-shoot-i-want-to-grow-up-chicago.jpg

This article reflects on the shootings that took place in Chicago this past weekend. I read the Tribune weekly, and every weekend the shootings are no less than 10 per weekend. It's sad seeing how many people die every weekend over gun violence. I feel like people are becoming used to seeing these statistics every weekend, and it shouldn't be that way. Last month I read an article on the Tribune about the same topic, which talked about how September of this year, had more shootings than compared to any other September in the past. The article stated that there was 59 shootings in just three days, that is a problem and I think there should be more attention to this problem.
