This is the second time in the last few weeks that we have reported on a shooting at a theme park in America.
Could there be a better indication that American civil society is collapsing than when we see shootings are parks built for the amusement of children?
It’s no surprise that this took place just outside of Chicago, now is it ….?
The Gateway Pundit reported:
Gurnee, Illinois – An active shooter was reported at Six Flags Great America on Sunday evening.
According to preliminary reports, at least three people were injured and EMS is on scene treating victims.
CBS Chicago confirmed the shooting happened in the front entrance parking lot of the theme park.
The gunshots came from a car in the parking lot, according to police.
Several ambulances were called to the theme park.
