If you really want the reality of what the infringement upon the rights of the people are in direct violation to the protections outlined in the Second Amendment, you need look no further than the town where liberal Democrats like Barack Hussein Obama Soetoro Sobarkah came from, Chicago. Over the Mother’s Day weekend, in a period of just 48 hours, there were forty-nine people shot and eight killed.

The local NBC affiliate reported:

Eight people were killed and 41 others wounded in shootings across Chicago during a period of just over 48 hours this weekend. As advocacy groups gathered to call for peace on Mother’s Day weekend, those pleas went unanswered as violence once again plagued communities across the city.

At least 24 of the weekend’s shootings happened in an eight hour period from Friday night to Saturday morning.

The most recent fatal shooting occurred at 3:21 p.m. Sunday, when an unknown male was found on the street in the 3400 block of W Arthington in the Homan Square neighborhood, according to police. He had multiple gunshot wounds, police said, and was taken to Stroger Hospital where he was pronounced dead. Police said he was between the ages of 16 and 25, and they did not know his identity as of early Sunday evening.

The Chicago Sun Times broke down several of the shootings, including the death of 16-year-old Nathan Hicks, who died from multiple gun shots. Below is a list of the majority of the shootings with links to the stories.

In addition to these instances, one man was stabbed on Sunday.

Chicago Police Superintendent John Escalante said that the level of violence was mainly coming from gang activity.

“It’s the new way of taunting, challenging other gangs,” Escalante said. “It’s the modern way of gang graffiti.”

However, he never recognizes that infringing on the rights of citizens to arm themselves is a good deterrent towards gang violence occurring in the first place, and is a good means for many of those who are shot actually surviving and dealing with the criminals who are seeking to murder them.

Meanwhile, Mayor Rahm “The Ballerina Godfather” Emanuel tries to blame gun dealers for Chicago’s deaths by guns.

Chicago has some of the most infringements upon the God-given rights recognized in the Declaration of Independence and the Second Amendment of any other American city. Currently, it is on track to have one of its deadliest years. It is so bad that the homicide rate for the Windy City has doubled from the same time in 2015.

Chicago’s urban areas are just a bad place, not only because of gangs, but because those who represent the people have not protected and secured their rights.
