People bring their families there to a Glock switch free fire zone? Brilliant.

Here is a locally report on the same story:
9 people, mostly children, shot as holiday crowd turns violent in the Loop; 1 dead (CWB Chicago)

There shouldn’t be Christmas tree lightings before Thanksgiving.

Less than a city block from Daley Plaza where the Christ Kindl Market is held. I guess it opened up yesterday just in time for the shooting. I used to take my family there and it became a Christmas tradition.

No more Chiraq Festivities for me. I chose life.
