"We are only a few gunshots away from recording our 1,000th 'gangland slaying'-nine away, to be exact. A city wide 1,000th-Hit Festival could be held. There could be a fireworks display in Soldier Field-with exploding cars. Someone from the police department might even make a speech about its role.
