    crime cases is a good idea. I do think that there can be other ways that can lighten some of the violence in Chicago is by making stricter gun laws. I think when a person that is dangerous get a hold of a weapon, that is not good and they should be the biggest targeted people.

    As the naked eye scopes the congested room of students, this particular individual appears almost unnoticeable. At first sight, the eye can only distinguish him by his pristine, “Harry Potter” bifocals that rest on the bridge of his aquiline nose.
