No Fourth of July fireworks in Chicago this year

The city has confirmed there will be no fireworks display on the 4th of July in the city of Chicago this year. In years past, large world-class displays would light up the lakefront, attracting more than a million people and stopping traffic along Lake Shore Drive.
The city has offered no explanation, but reminds residents that Navy Pier holds its twice-a-week fireworks display every Wednesday and Saturday through Labor Day, including Wednesday July 3 and Saturday July 6.

I’d say it’s a mixture of bad parenting and the governor/mayor not doing shit.

[@jaimep3432]

Johnson needs the money to pay for his water bills.

[@TolyTheTolerBear]

The money’s being used to pay for Violence Interrupters 🙄🙄🙄

[@CensorsTruth]

Violence interrupters are gang members holding the city hostage, these folks and these communities cannot be trusted. They breed in wedlock to game the welfare system and create the poverty to criminality cycle.

Usual suspects f' ng everything up for the usual taxpayers 😡❗

[@stevenslouber4947]

But they had a pride celebration right? Celebrate that and forget why you can! No freedom celebration in Chicago!

I really like fireworks. I feel that it brings the community together now everybody will have to bring their own fireworks for Fourth of July and light it up.

Blame Keyser Sose, Verbal and Keyser Soze

[@beejls]

I have so many fond memories of the years I spent going to hear the third of July fireworks concert in Grant Park.
I feel so lucky to have been able to attend those concerts, they were so much fun.
Too bad our mayor is a cheapskate.
