This is the one city in the country that banned guns: https://www.chicagotribune.com/natio...207-story.html

Wonder if they consider it a victory now? Supreme Court rejection of gun case considered a victory by Highland Park

The U.S. Supreme Court's refusal Monday to take up a challenge to Highland Park's ban on assault weapons protects similar restrictions in Chicago and other parts of Illinois and sends a message that municipalities have the right to determine how to best protect their communities, according to legal experts.

Chicagoland death toll for the weekend might be in the 20s when it's all said and done. At least 7 dead so far in the city from regular routine violence and now 6 dead in Highland Park, just north of the city limits.

That's outrageous and sad.

Wow.

One lady was in hiding (in a sporting goods store) with a man who had had one of the bullets nick his ear and he had blood on his face from that.

There are no tall building in downtown Highland Park, mostly one story, with a few two story. So, this person would have been pretty close to the crowd.
