focus on removing illegal guns from the streets of Chicago and other urban war zones throughout the United States.

After the shootings in Newton, the President said "it was the worst day of his presidency". This tragedy was given national attention given to the purchase and use of legal multiple round firearms to make our country safer is an important discussion seriously.
However lingering in the backdrop of that reality is another issue, one that needs to be addressed quickly. In Chicago, firearms have been illegal since 2004, but the city had over 500 murders in 2012. This is due to the proliferation and distribution of illegal guns in the hands of teenagers over the last ten years. These illegal handguns present a Clear and Present Danger to the citizens of the United States so we urge the him to create a commission dedicated to ending illegal gun murders in the United States by the year 2016.
