Libertybear, sorry you had to see that. I've lived in Chicago my entire life and have always enjoyed all events Chicago offers. I guess there are things in all cities that can happen, but to see a stabbing is at the top of the bad list. The fireworks are truly spectacular, and yes, there are too many people, but if you are able to plan in advance and watch the fireworks from afar or from a hotel room is the way to go. Hope you try it again one day.
Well,it's Great Police beat down the suspects!!!!I'm All for that!!!Needs to be more of that!!! Can I can get an AMEN Up in here!!!

Great fireworks and terrible environment. Too many prople (1.1 million). Three years ago, my three children saw a man stabbed in the belly and the beat down of the suspects by the police. For me, it was better than the fireworks, but it is nothing for little kids to see.
