Continued Violence at Chicago’s Beaches

Chicago beach shooting

These gunshots occurred right after a group of us left the docks, and it’s a growing trend at a typically peaceful Chicago beach. Chicago’s mayor, Johnson, has blamed the violence on Nixon, and many people say the new variable here is the Venezuelan “migrants” who have arrived in the past year.

On Sunday evening, four people suffered stab wounds within hours because of this incident and another one. A few weeks ago, fights broke out, and they shot a man in the parking lot.

All groups, including Hispanics, have enjoyed this beach for years, and there have rarely been issues until recently.

A retired suburban police chief, Thomas Weitzel, said, “Can we all agree that the mayor’s summer safety plan was purely for political reasons? It’s harmful. How long can police leadership continue to support this?”

Before, Mayor Johnson blamed the violence on Nixon he said it was the former mayor’s fault.

Self-defense shootings are up this year in Chicago, and it’s clear that CCL holders are not the ones breaking the law.
