Shriner Takes Out Paradegoers
Stray fireworks and gunfire weren't the only thing Fourth of July revelers had to look out for yesterday -- another danger loomed large. Shriners!

Everyone escaped with only minor injuries. In other news, the Chicago City Council is now considering a ban on Shriners. [Trib]
