"Scrambling" for Eggs
See the headline there? We're so punny:
Children dressed in their Easter best set off on a hunt for candy-filled eggs on Saturday in East Garfield Park.
Parishioners at Harvest Worship Center Ministries spread out thousands of colorful eggs for their annual “Easter Eggstravaganza” at Altgeld Park Hope Field at 515 S. Washtenaw Ave.
Children of all ages raced to collect as many eggs as they could, filling their colorful Easter baskets.
Now in its 13th year, the parish-run event also featured food, games and music for children and their families.
Readers of the blog will recall a few years back that Altgeld Park is the location where a suburban school had come in to play football against local school, and everyone ended up on the ground as gunfire rang out a few yards away from where children were playing. The suburbanites were appropriately shocked that such a thing could happen - not being aware that the 011th District led the city in homicides most of the past forty years....and led the nation in per capita violent crimes on more than one occasion.
The kids were obviously "scrambling" to get their share of the eggs before the "Shots Fired" calls started up. Again.

In Chicago no one can or should gather even for something perceived as something good. Troubles come.
I thought eggs were too expensive.
So you have kids doing an Easter egg hunt in the middle of the district with the biggest amount of heroin users. I pray those children don’t kind needles or a gun
There are two different ways of life, ours-quiet, normal, avoiding controversy, taking responsibility for our actions and those of our children, and theirs-loud, violent, blaming others for their normal way of behavior. When are the stupid liberals gonna realize that.
When, maybe, I chalk them.
Maybe.
