Valentine's Day 1929

Full-scale warfare precipitates between two factions. Many men tumble because of these actions. What really started this thing, I do not know. Both sides want to control the City of Chicago. Police crack down on illegal gambling. They are also after prostitution and bootlegging. Within the city government, there is corruption and scandal. It appears there is an excess for them to handle. As far as citizens like us, things are not too fine. They are as bad as ever in February 1929. I heard many shots ringing out downstairs this morning. A massive bloodbath has taken place without warning. They say there are seven men lying face down on the floor. The culpable individuals are not around anymore. The responsible killers absconded without being seen. The aftermath of this action is a most horrible scene. On this Valentine’s Day morning, we are seeing too much red. Seven members of Bugs Moran’s gang are now dead.
