A Chicago beach was closed just hours after it opened for Memorial Day Weekend after shots were fired during a large brawl.

The shooting comes after officials announced they are deploying 'peacekeepers' across the city in a bid to prevent holiday chaos after nine people were killed and 52 others were shot last year.

Crowds of people at North Avenue Beach scrambled for cover on Friday when gun fire went off following a fight which broke out between a group of 80 to 100 teenagers.

The residents of Chicago are getting what they voted for “good and hard”.

He was probably just “inspired” by his rapper heroes that the media glorifies.

What a bunch of pikers, if they don't get those numbers up into the Hundreds or even thousands, they will never make a difference for Americans.

Dang and I was hoping they’d tolerate these little scamps letting off a little steam after a tough week of studying and test taking in school.

Sounds as if Chicago is getting off to a rousing start of the summer. Is there a betting site for the over/under number of shootings and deaths for the Memorial Day weekend?

https://cwbchicago.com/

“Man killed during possible robbery attempt in Lakeview East”

and

“A man is in critical condition after being shot while standing on a West Loop street corner overnight, Chicago police said.”

It’s probably best not to go where there might be a group of 80 to 100 teenagers.

By that I assume they mean the Peacekeeper missile. I suppose they gotta do what they gotta do. But it seems a little drastic, if you ask me.

The feral, knuckle-dragger, ghetto rats don’t vote. They sell their votes for cash.

Leave it to the Amish to muck up something good. I thank the Lord I don’t live anywhere near Chicago or Illinois.
