Violence in Chiraq

Why all the violence in Chicago? Have you seen people sneak dissing on social media? Have you heard about the gun violence and gangs in Chicago? Music in Chicago has a big influence on gun violence in gangs in the city of Chicago. Chief Keef a well known Chicago rapper who has put out music about gangs in Chicago. He also had beef with the late rapper little JoJo who was shot and killed for making a rap video that was dissing chief keef's gang. 50 to 80% of the murders in Chicago are gang related. Most of the reasons for them is social media. The only way to stop gun violence, gangs, and sneak dissing on social media is to bring awareness about these issues in the city of Chicago. The way to do this is by having marches and pep rallies. We as Chicagoans have to take action and let our Politicians know that we are tired of the violence in the city of Chicago. We have to make sure that we watch over our neighborhood carefully and closely. That we keep our neighborhood safe and secure for the little kids in the neighborhood. The killings in Chicago that happen are so stupid. It's these young teenagers and gangs trying to make a name for themselves and act tough to impress their peers. The sad thing about it is that they need a gun to do so. Once the parents start watching their child closely most of these immature killings and shootings happen in the city of Chicago. Some neighborhoods in Chicago are terrorized by gangs and gun violence that all the kids don't want to come outside and play. By all of this happening the teenagers between ages 13 and up are influenced by doing it. Only because their friends are doing it and they want their friends to think they are cool.   All in all I think the violence won't stop in Chicago until we take action. That we Chicagoans come together and keep each other safe. We must do this to insure that we live in a better city that is big and beautiful that is called Chicago and not chiraq.
