    Every day in the local news, viewers witness a host of tragedies that have hit Chicago every weekend and sometimes every night. Many of the stories featured concern gun violence and the amount of deaths or injuries resulting from it. It has become a problem so synonymous with our city that many people, from neighborhood activists to politicians at Capitol Hill, have expressed their opinions as to what the city and its residents could do to either minimize or eradicate the violence. In late 2013, the state of Illinois passed the Concealed Carry Law which permitted registered gun owners to carry a concealed weapon on their person.

    The Second Amendment Some people in the United States of America feel that the Second Amendment should be removed due to crimes in this country. Others feel that if the amendment was removed, the brutal death rates would increase, creating more harm than good.

In today 's world, America has become a horrific place filled with crime and murder.…
