CHICAGO -- At least 21 have been shot, four fatally, Memorial Day weekend across Chicago since Friday evening, according to police.

A 16-year-old girl was among five people seriously wounded in a shooting after a fight broke out Sunday morning in Lawndale on the West Side. The group of five, ranging in age from 16 to 33, were on the sidewalk in the 800 block of South Karlov Avenue about 1:30 a.m. when a fight broke out and shots were fired.

A man was shot to death early Sunday morning in Englewood on the South Side. The man, whose age was unknown, was on a sidewalk in the 5700 block of South Carpenter Street when someone opened fire, striking him in the head and body.

Two men were killed during a shootout Saturday afternoon in Englewood on the South Side. The men, 29 and 38, were near the sidewalk about 5 p.m. in the 5500 block of South Bishop Street when they pulled out a gun and fired shots at each other.

Last weekend, one person was killed and 26 others wounded in shootings across the city.

Which conservative should run for mayor, in 2023? I lived in the Chicago area for 18 years.

"Which conservative should run for mayor, in 2023?"

Good question. Ignoring the liberal/conservative aspect, I think that effective is more important. I believe Ray Lopez could be effective.
