From The Chicagoist - "But, in the Mayor’s estimation, you might also be racist. He told reporters yesterday (http://www.nbc5.com/news/14136055/detail.html), "You mean, you don't want children from the city in Grant Park? Why? Are they black, white, Hispanic? Are they poor? You don't want children? We have children in Grant Park all the time." We're filing this one under Things Mayor Daley Says That Do Not Make Sense. That folder is ... pretty full. "You mean somebody's gonna say we don't want poor kids in Lincoln Park, we're gonna close the zoo down? That is a disgrace. Grant Park belongs to the people of the City of Chicago," Daley added. Mommy, our brain hurts!"
