1. Deodatta V. Shenai-Khatkhate:

   It's only a myth that "Lightning never strikes the same place twice". Very recently , on June 30, 2014, three skyscrapers from Chicago were struck by lightning 17 times - 10 strikes to the Sears (Willis) Tower, 8 to the Trump Tower, and 4 to the John Hancock Center. Scientifically speaking, Lightning can strike any location more than once, given enough time, and at the same spot over and over again. It may take as little a few seconds in a single thunderstorm, or as long as millions of years - but Lightning will eventually strike twice at least. That's the reality that is stranger than fiction.

2. Deodatta V. Shenai-Khatkhate:

   It's just a folklore that lightning would never strike the same place twice. Last year, on June 30, 2014, three skyscrapers from Chicago were struck by lightning 17 times - 10 strikes to the Sears (Willis) Tower, 8 to the Trump Tower, and 4 to the John Hancock Center. So be assured that lightning can surely strike any location more than once, and probably at the same spot over and over again, given enough time. It may take as little as few seconds in a thunderstorm, or as long as millions of years - but lightning will eventually strike the same place twice.

3. Detectives Eugene Roy:

   What’s really telling is that during the same time period, 632 officers have resigned, that means they’ve left the Chicago Police Department before they’re eligible for a pension. The vast majority of them are being employed by other police agencies and they are leaving the Chicago Police Department in droves.

4. Police Superintendent David Brown:

   No family, no block, no community in the City of Chicago should have to endure the looming threat of guns and gangs, this is a tragedy, there are too many incidents just like this. We’re losing too many young people, and it’s really saddening.

5. Bill Mitchell:

   Downstate families are tired of Chicago dictating its views to the rest of Weld County voters.
