Reflection on Chicago's gun violence




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.
