I thought guns were illegal in chimpland? From the post: >>A night of celebration spiraled into panic when two shootings rocked Chicago just hours after the city lit its official Christmas tree. One person was killed and eight others were wounded on Friday as terrified crowds fled through an area known as The Loop. The first burst of gunfire erupted around 9.50pm near State and Randolph streets, steps from the Chicago Theatre. Police on patrol heard shots fired into a large group, triggering a stampede. Seven teens, aged 13 to 17, were hit and rushed to Stroger and Lurie Children's hospitals in fair to good condition.
