Chicago festival security more top of mind than ever after Highland Park parade shooting – ABC7 (Chicago)

Along with some familiar restaurants, visitors will also see more police and security presence at the Taste of Chicago than in years past. Organizers warn attendees it may take a little longer to get in with thorough bag checks in place.

Searching attendees is all well & good…

But how does that prevent the person(s) waiting in line from pulling out their gun(s) & blasting away…?

Or the drive-by shooting…?

Putting a band-aid on a sucking chest wound only delays the inevitable…

We have a *culture* problem not a *gun* problem…

Taste is racist. Attending patrons are actually required to pay for things, no freebies. Racist? Indeed!
