Kids are being killed everyday like its nothing. It seems like every time I turn on the TV, I hear some thing about some CPS student has been killed. Along with many other of the Chicago citizens feel that it is not safe to stay in this city. This article makes a lot of sense about the violence that is going on around the city. This article also touches many key points to things that are contributing to the violence level in the city of the Chicago. Trying to stop this violence will take lot of time and lots of work, by both the Chicago Police Department and the CPS student body and administration. Without help from all of these people nothing will happen, the violence will continue to climb at an alarming rate. I myself will put forward my best foot to help stop any violence that I witness or take part in. Many teens here at Harper have already signed a document that says they will not use any guns to solve any problems or disagreement. Kids these days do not understand that a gun can take more then just a life. It also takes away your freedom, somebody’s child, grandchild, cousin, etc. Teens today have a lot more to fear, then teens from 10 years ago. So I believe that with lots of help, support, and love these killings will stop. We have already lost 24 CPS students do to violence. Every CPS Students does not want to become number 25.
