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.

Hey, it's a beach, so there's already sand. All you have to do is turn it into green glass...

Who bring a gun to the beach? Only Chicago citizens I guess. Do urban Amish know how to swim? 🤓

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.

Those Amish again...

Just another weekend in Chicago.

Yeah, why waste a very technical and expensive system to do what a good ole Slim Pickens style dumb bomb would do.

Concealed carry?

Someone who doesn't have anything else to fill a codpiece!

Between a group? You can’t between one thing.

Governor JB Pritzker announced on Thursday the establishment of the Citywide Crisis Prevention & Response unit which will work with community-based organizations to deploy over 30 trained neighborhood 'peacekeepers.'

These "peacekeepers" are better known as potential hostages. I'm guessing they were running when the gunshots started...if they were even there.

How do you scramble for cover on a beach? Big flat empty stretch of sand. Umbrellas make poor shields against bullets. Only one person can hide behind an ice chest. I guess you could get behind some other people but I wouldn’t want to tell that story afterwards.
