Nowhere is Safe
- Two people were wounded Thursday in a shooting on Chicago's North Side, and a third person was hurt after running into a wall while trying to escape the gunfire, authorities said.
The shooting occurred about 3 p.m. in the 1600 block of North Orchard Street in the Lincoln Park neighborhood, a few blocks east of the North/Clybourn Red Line station.
- Two people were killed early Friday morning in what police said apparently were separate drive-by shootings on the Northwest Side.
The first shooting happened about 1 a.m. when the victim, [...] was standing with a half dozen friends in the 1900 block of West Crystal Street in Wicker Park as a vehicle slowly pulled up. - Separately, about 5 miles away, a man was shot and killed about 3 a.m. in the 3400 block of West Diversey Avenue in Logan Square.
It's looking like that 20% rise is going to be 30% by the end of the year.

If you haven't caught on yet, carry off duty.
How about 30% raise?
O.T. More indictments to follow: 7-10 P.O.s will be indicted for selling/giving LEADS info to bounty hunters and gangbangers. Guys, if you cant play by the rules, get out of the game. If you need extra money, get a sidejob. When will this sh%t end?

WHEN THE CRIME COMES TO THE NORTHWEST SIDE THEN THE POLS WILL WANT THE POLICE TO DO SOMETHING OTHERWISE WHO CARES ABOUT THE BLK BRWN AND POOR
When is the 1st newly appointed Deputy going to be launched??????
No wonder all the crime is happening nobody is making anymore disorderly conduct arrests. Come on officers pick up the arrests or you will be working in that 003rd district burger joint!!!!!!!!

Hey SCC:
You know what makes me feel better about this whole ugly situation? The fact that I'm on furlo and collected a paycheck (once again) for doing almost NOTHING. Come to think of it, I haven't written a mover in about 14 years, and the last parker written was to a jagoff that blocked my pregnant wife from getting out of the garage to get to a doctor's appointment - about 4 years ago!
I never quite understood the old-timers when they said "Kid, one day you'll figure this job out - if you're not killed or indicted first". I figured it out, all right. Just wish I had a lot earlier.
So, for a few more years, I've got to just keep on doing what I'm doing - NOTHING. Then I can leave this asshole of a city and county and never look back. I truly feel sorry for the guys and gals who just can't grasp the reality of it all.
Stay safe, and remember that YOU AND YOUR PARTNER are all that matter at the end of the tour. Get home safely to your loved ones. Fuck this City, County, Daley and the Department, not to mention the hundreds of others that have slipped my mind after too many vodka-lemonades.
Thank goodness we have the Gmen with us now. I don't know how we handled crime in the city without their leadership before. The premier law enforcement agency can show us the way.
When is the FOP going to have a vote of No Confidence concerning Jody Weis?
That would be the final straw.
The city is getting what it is asking for. Believe it or not, they don't like their consequences.
Keep up the good work boys and girls. Don't forget the old Revolutionary slogan that unified the colonies:
"Don't Tread on Me."
I just wanted to post something before I get shot walking to church!
The owners of all those multi-million dollar mansions on 1800/1900 blocks of Orchard and Burling Streets will have block club signs up shortly.
The mere thought of roving bands of Scandanavian gangbangers in Lincoln Park is unacceptable.
Aside from packing nines, they're littering our streets with empty Flamin' Hot Cheeto bags and 40 ouncers. Mentholated cigarette butts are everywhere.
where i work i am seeing the yuppies become less tolerant with the ghetto element and their antics.
i guess it's a whole other game when you realize you aren't gonna be able to flip that house/condo.
It could be a 600% jump. It wont matter the Olympics are coming!!! Daley has paid for them already and they are coming!!! I fear it will be a disaster Chicago will be named the host city of the games in October 2009 the odds in Vegas are 2-1 Chicago gets it. If Daley is still in office during the years of 2010 - 2016 the Chicago Olympics will be considered the worst ever it will be so mismanaged that the city will go down the tubes. If Daley were the CEO or CFO of a big company he would have been fired awhile ago. Once your city is named to hold the Olympics your stuck with them. Hopefully Daley wont be running the city and maybe the Olympics could be a plus instead of a minus.
OT- i bought 4 cases of water from jewel (on sale for $2.99/case). total - $11.96. not a bad deal. then they hit me with the city tax (which i forgot about) - $ 4.80!
that's a little over 40% in city taxes.
that's fuckin crazy.
Mr. SouthSide says---
Welcome to the jungle my north side brothers.
Cabrini Green is right there
I live on the North side and at the Dominick's on Lincoln and Foster yesterday I saw four vice lords. I followed them and saw them entering into an apartment with their groceries at around 6000 N. Western Ave.
A day after, while going to work, I observed several MLD's hanging out at Irving Park and Central. There goes the neighborhood folks.
We don't have enough cops and those we do have from the "safe districts" (i.e. 020, 016, 019, etc...) we put their gang teams, drug teams in 007, 025, 015, 011, etc... and guess where the shitheads go? Obviously since there is more heat put on them in their home turf, they will move to greener pastures and that would be where we decent people live!

The moral of this whole story is buy your water outside the City/County limits!
FUCK Daley, and Stoger!
That moniker, the "Northwest Side"
seems to cover a bigger area every week.
Just a few years ago "they"(the whore media,etc)were using artsy
fartsy titles like the "near northwest side".
Someone should give a class, so when I put my overpriced bungalow
on the market, I'll know how many hundreds of thousands to take off the asking price....
1600-1700 Orchard sucks! There is a big Section 8 building full of shit on the east side of the street. The yups act like real pussies when they encounter the thugs. Very dangerous area. I'm surprised they haven't taken some yuppie and had their way with her yet.
to 0108 am-- you r right on brother. do nothing, back up partner and other guys on watch, and take care of your family. the state's attorneys at 26th and cal have caught on. monday morning felony cases are way down from what they were in the past because the police are tired of getting screwed over. and the asa's completely understand why and are for the most part behind us. the eagle shits twice a month and i have been sleeping real good lately since i hung up my spurs.
This is what the Liberals want, please leave the gangbangers alone, don't bother the illegals(Via Mexico come to Chicago free Sanctuary)or the poor blacks. Let the Rev's run the city and they will let King Richard live too Rule another day. And let's not forget 30 years of Affirmative Action has finally caught up to the Dept and all these Dumb Shits true colors are rising to the surface(we have learned that the space shuttle can actually orbit inside their head). The Dept is Doomed and we are looking like Detroit more each day.

Just FYI: I noticed the above does have the "official" Chalkie, torch and all. And I'm really pleased to see that the person doing it is donating the $ (I assume it's the profits or some such) to the 100 Club. Thank you.
I found another "chalkie" clothing website that does t-shirts and all sorts of other items, but it **isn't** the "official" Chalkie with the extinguished torch - just a chalk outline - and it makes no mention of where the $ goes.
then they hit me with the city tax (which i forgot about)
=====
Bet you'll never make THAT mistake again!
a third person was hurt after running into a wall while trying to escape the gunfire,
++++++
That's hysterical, the mental picture of that.
And yet the mayor is still talking about laying off police!
"...the city's $420 million deficit and before mayoral advisers warned that the city's worst budget crisis in a generation could trigger well over 1,000 layoffs, including police officers and firefighters."
quoted from: http://www.suntimes.com/news/metro/1110978,CST-NWS-cuts16.article
Probably not going to happen, but that means no new hires for a long long time. I think that rumor about no new hires until sometime next year is absolutely true.
I'd like to see how fast crime would go down if the next five or six shootings ended up with the offender getting shot and killed by a law-abiding citizen who has a gun.
Considering that most of these little cocksuckers are teenage wanna-be Jeff Fort's, I'd say crime might drop dramatically.
More indictments to follow: 7-10 P.O.s will be indicted for selling/giving LEADS info to bounty hunters and gangbangers.
**Oh Well, we all know we have plenty of gangbangers on this job and stupid chicks that date them. I won't be sorry to see them go :)

**It's worth a drive out of the county to shop! Nice clean organized stores. Nice employees. No shitheads or foreigners raiding the stores being ignorant. Stock up.
Oh No shooting in 018? eeehhhh they are all going to shit themselves there, they get a shots fired or person shot and they ACTUALLY give a fuck! HAHAHAHAHAHAH only in 018

I was there also, it was a nice time. It is amazing how a couple of thousand people can get thogether in a 2 block area and party without incident. The one (1) problem is a one (1) who shows up and causes problem. It was funny when the rest of the family was dropping the N-Bomb to the on duty POs and talking typical BS. It may work in your Hood but not mine.
Those yups in Lincoln Park are starting to get pissed too. Some were actually dumb enough to send their kids to Lincoln Park High School and have been totally ghettoized. Now they,re stuck cus they can't move their condos.
I CALLED FOP ABOUT NO CONFIDENCE VOTE, THEY SAID I WAS THE ONLY CALL THEY RECIEVED ABOUT A NO CONFIDENCE VOTE . I GUESS IM THE ONLY ONE WHO THINKS THINGS SUCK. NO LIE THEY SAID I WAS THE ONLY ONE WHO CALLED.

maybe the Olympics could be a plus instead of a minus.
---------------------------------------
There is absolutely NOTHING plus about hosting the Olympic Games.
The only host city (to my knowledge) that ever made a profit was Los Angeles and that was only because they had the infrastructure already in place.
Hosting the Olympic Games will bring utter and complete financial ruin to what's left of this city.
It aggravates me to no end that just because king ritchie wants the Olympic Games we're going to get them.
This is a huge, HUGE undertaking and the decision should have been put to referendum.
Riccio was out and about at EP Fest today. One of the few new commanders that make the cut
re 8/16/2008 06:08:00 AM
No, that's fucking Daley.
If Dick DALEY is trying to get teh Olympics why is he crying taht the city is so fucking broke... It amazes me taht every July we are broke andespecially if it is a July that the City is negotiating union contracts we are even broker?????
It doesn't make sense taht the fucking moron would let the world know how broke he is and still expect that the Olympic selection group does not notice that he is crying that he has to lay off city workers and 1st responders andstill consider the cityas a viable city.
what do you mean by "nowhere is safe"?
This city is blanketed by an ordinance that bans guns! WTF RICHIE?!

-------------
There's a $420 mil and growing budget shortfall. Richie and the gang will think of something even more creative to tax. Anything that they can get away with.
cheetos tax? sock tax? hair cut tax? It's all on the board folks!
Are we at 900 murders yet? If not this is only chump change. In the early 70s and for quite a while we did have 800 to plus 900 murders every year. Guess what, it was still gangbangers killing each other over dope territory and who can steal what and where. THe gangs have incorporated younger assholes into the killing fields.
This is not the fault of the police, legit tax payers, home owners etc. it is not even the fault of the fire department.
If someone wants to affix blame lets start with the gangbangers, their closest friends the alderpeople such as Troutmens, Mell and his buttbud Blago until stealing money came between them. look at the westside and southside alderpeoples. Look at judges and lawyers. But start with the bangers and their friends, there is the blame.
Just think if we hit 900 murders, city hall would be shitting in their pants. Yes we would have troops on the street but not Blagos National Guard it would be the 1st Marine Div.
Thats real smart! So when I shoot someone and I had 2 beers They will fire me for shooting drunk!
8/16/2008 11:27:00 AM
Not that I carry when I know I'll have more than a couple, but if we're talking 2 beers, better to be judged by 12 than carried by 6.

And yet nothing seems to transform the nature of the beasts.
The point was that, until those controlling our city and county governments are directly affected by what the residents of the west and south sides are, nothing will be done.
Because, as you, an ardent observer of race related issues, must already know, the residents of the west and south sides can't seem to manage to understand the correlation between the actions of those they continue to reelect and the lack of civility practiced by their neighbors, their relatives and their offspring.
Both of those homicides were in 014. Last night 2 more shot in 014 at Central Park/Barry. In Friday's "Meet your Commander'" 1400 says he wants Cease Fire/current bangers to come in and address roll call. Open communications and understand what they are about. Hey dummy, 1400, we already know what they are about. We see it everyday. Like these fools say, "can't stop wont stop." J-Fraud stooge!

That's right up the street from where TARA trainng is. Heads up going to lunch or to & from!
the scum on the streets know that we're big time short manpower. they also know and realize that the police have utterly stopped being proactive and are only being reactive when it comes to policen' the mean streets of shitcago. if the mayor gives us a contract on time and a decent one with a cost of living raise on top of that, if the department would stand fucking us in the ass and hanging us for doing our job and if the department would stop promoting and putting persons in positions only cause Izz knowzes somebody then I have no doubt whatsoever that the police will go out there and do what needs to be done, the crime will fall 40%, the streets will be cleaned up, the shooting will cease and almost stop and Shitcago will once again be call "My Sweet Home CHICAGO".

Daley's too far past the point of being capable of rational, reasonable thought.
He's certifiably mentally ill.
Even with all the self medications he's popping daily.
And the rest of his clan actually believe they can ride this out without missing a beat.
If only the mayoral and aldermanic elections were to coincide with the presidential.
Why do you think that the mayoral and aldermanic elections aren't held simultaneously with the state and federal legislative and executive elections?

You don't think off-duty PO's can be murdered? Have you been reading the news, or even SCC, in the last week?
Any PO that doesn't carry off-duty is a toolbag. It's not about protecting Shortshanks. It's about protecting yourself. But if your self-worth is so low that you don't think your own life is worth protecting, hey, you know yourself better than I do.

Gotcha beat brother. I carry when I get my mail
There are no "safe areas" anymore, and there haven't been for some time. Saw a letter recently written by a white female PO who was out with her infant daughterbcomplaining about gangbangers flashing LK signs at other kids in the Chicago Ridge Mall. Although she praised the Police response out there after she called, she complained about a lack of mall security.
The fact is, when you walk into these situations, the only security around is going to be YOU.
Anyone in law enforcement who leaves the house unarmed is a fool.
If you're out with your kids, you're an even bigger fool.
After reading this female POs letter, I realized that poor training is poor training. Take what you need with you to protect you and yours. Never let your guard down. Thugs have money and vehicles too, and they frequent many of the same places you do.

I live around Montrose/Central, can you tell me what MLD stands for? It is a gang name according to the P.O. who made the original post.
Stay safe out there.

WHO THE HELL ARE YOU JOHN GOTTI?
"IT JUST BAFFLES ME HOW I SURVIVED ALL THESE YEARS BEFORE I BECAME THE POLICE AND DIDNT CARRY A GUN. ITS CALLED STREET SMARTS. I DONT PUT MYSELF IN SITUATIONS WHERE MY GUARD IS DOWN AND I AM BACKED INTO A CORNER! YOU NEED A GUN TO SURVIVE? U COWARD. IT IS MY CHOICE TO CARRY OFF DUTY AND IF I CHOSE NOT TO SO BE IT!

Swell.
Good for you.
Don't let those running shoes wear down too much, you're likely to need the traction.
"Gotcha beat brother. I carry when I get my mail

But do ya carry while you wipe?
thats right you didnt need a gun before you became the police guess what you are the police now that means sometime in your short time on the job you locked some bad guy up. when he sees you on the street off duty with his boys tell him you dont carry. hope you are not with your family when it happens.these shit heads go to the same places you do.maybe your a clout bitch and never worked the streets.
WHEN THE CRIME COMES TO THE NORTHWEST SIDE THEN THE POLS WILL WANT THE POLICE TO DO SOMETHING OTHERWISE WHO CARES ABOUT THE BLK BRWN AND POOR
HELLO! The Black and Brown are the Criminals, I don't go into their neighborhood and commit crimes. Maybe you might make them accountable.
We can thank Section 8 scattered housing for all the shit coming into the last of the decent neighborhoods. The good thing is that so many cops who work in 16 also live in 16. I'm hoping they keep up aggressive patrols. Thanks guys and gals.
Hey nitwits! Stop drinking and always carry a gun in this city.

Are you kidding me? You think these shit heads are looking for the po who locked them up for a misdemeanor? Its really not that serious

Yeah, some people with an axe to grind have retaliated for misdemeanors, as well as felonies and have said as much when pinched. You had nothing to worry about when you weren't the police, but if you could have carried then legally you would have, so carry now and protect yourself and your family.
Both victims in 014 were kings.
and a third person was hurt after running into a wall while trying to escape the gunfire
Ok - am I the only one who sees the humor in the yuppie knocking himself out running into a wall??
**************************
Fuck no! The mental picture of that is fucking hilarious! Banging into the wall wearing those checked shorts and a pink Ralph Lauren shirt with the collar turned up? Thats gold baby, gold!

Make fun of the person's clothing all you want, but I fail to see the humor in someone running for their life away from gunfire. Its sad that people are so desensitized to the violence in this city. Indeed, no place & no person is safe anymore.

u guys are so full of it! you make it seem like we live in afganistan!
The fact is, when you walk into these situations, the only security around is going to be YOU.
Anyone in law enforcement who leaves the house unarmed is a fool.
If you're out with your kids, you're an even bigger fool.
After reading this female POs letter, I realized that poor training is poor training. Take what you need with you to protect you and yours. Never let your guard down. Thugs have money and vehicles too, and they frequent many of the same places you do.

What about us law-abiding citizens? Why don't we deserve the ability to protect ourselves and our families? I support you guys all the way but when it comes down to it, will you arrest me if I nail some shitbird prowling in my place at night? Or will I be okay because I was just defending myself?

I won't insult you, but please read on.
I was in a western suburb enjoying a nice dinner with the family, when the hostess seated a group at the next table. Alas, one of my felony arrestees sat down not 10 feet from me. Now, he could have had me long before I saw him, if his purpose in being there was to do me in, but once I made him, I was glad I chose that evening to carry off-duty. At least I and mine would have a chance if something went terribly bad from the point I observed him, instead of no chance at all.
My homeroom Sergeant told us that an off-duty weapon should never take you anywhere you wouldn't normally go without a weapon, but it is nice to have when the unexpected happens at a location where you would normally feel safe.
No one is saying the bad guy is going to look for you - it could very well be a chance encounter.
If you don't want to be prepared, that's on you.

That depends.
Do you have a basement with a concrete floor or a dirt one?
And a good shovel handy?
And maybe a bag of lime?
