Another Drop in Crime?

At this rate, there shouldn't be any crime in Chicago at all. In fact, we should be exporting crime to neighboring states:
  • Chicago police say new statistics available for the month of July show an overall drop in crime in the city and a decline that ends a four-month consecutive rise in murders.

    Chicago Police Superintendent Jody Weis (WEES) said Monday that it was 19th consecutive month of lower overall crime. The Chicago Police Department found there were four fewer murders in July compared with July a year ago. That resulted in a 1.5 percent decrease in murders.

    One category did see an increase. The department reported motor vehicle thefts went up 20.4 percent.

Nineteen months of crime reduction. Wow.

It's almost like the same guy counting Taste of Chicago attendance figures is operating in reverse!

And again, 60% of Chicago's population thinks crime is the number one issue in the upcoming elections.

GOD YOU STUPID ASSHOLES IN CITY HALL, THE ANSWER IS MORE POLICEMEN!

We need MORE MEN on the streets! Now! Do whatever you have you do! You miserable shitheads sold off critical, revenue generating city infrastructure for a one time infusion of cash, and we're still short police as the city spirals out of control? How is this even possible anywhere but Bizarro world?

Everything else needs to become secondary to getting MORE MEN out there to fight this damn crime!
I don't give a shit what your stupid computers or statics professors say about crime here. I know what I see every day.

If the ship is sinking, then all hands report to bail fucking water. You don't worry if the stemware is getting polished or if the cellist has new strings. You focus all your energies on the one pressing matter that can possibly destroy everything!

Shut off the god damn LINK cards, lower your pathetically high salaries, remove some of the absurd obstacles that are thrown up to business so we can actually increase our tax base and generate the money needed. Now. Now, now.

Crime is our most pressing matter and unless we make it our top-top-tippytop priority, then Chicago goes the way of Detroit. Step 0 is more men. We don't even begin to move towards Step 1 without first having an adequate amount of manpower to respond to the tidal wave of criminal activity that is going on here.

God, I hate the politicians here so bad I could puke. They're all retards.

If one calls 911 to report a crime and no one shows up to take the report then the crime does not get reported.

Fewer report takers = less crime!

Did they finally silence the newspapers? The only report of a shooting overnight was of a 5 year old shot by his twin.

Of course Daley will use this once again in his "ban guns from Chicago" speech.

Interesting to see if this was a "legal" gun.

It's the old metaphysical question: If a tree falls in the forest and no one's around to hear it, did it make any noise?

If there's crime in Chicago and no one calls 9-1-1 or there are not enough cops around to report it, did it really occur?

I've been a cop since 1978 and I've never seen anything like this. When you told someone to get off the corner or to disperse, they knew they could get locked up if they didn't comply. Now they snicker or tell you to go fuck yourself. Call the wagon? What wagon? Get the rest of the district to come over and take the crowd 3 at a time? Like everyone else isn't already stretched thin. And charge them with what? Loitering? Off the books. Disorderly Conduct? Unconstitutional. Professors Dohrn and Ayers have seen to it that socialism and public peace now fly hand-in-hand into the La-La-Land Utopia of the SDS.

Pack your bags. Last one out of Chicago, turn out the lights.

p.s. Fuck Daley, the Democrats and Masters, Masters, Masters.

Hey, Weis (WEES), WHAT WAS ALL THAT SHOOTING I HEARD YESTERDAY? HUH? PEOPLE RUNNING AROUND THE CITY STREETS IN BROAD DAYLIGHT WITH GUNS, BOOM-BOOM-BOOM-BOOM-BOOM-BOOM.

I'm sorry. I've developed a bad case of "cognitive dissonance." Happens when people tell you one thing, and you keep seeing the exact opposite.

I don't give a shit how many new officers they hire. Once the newbies figure out that they will get sued or may go to jail for doing police work the way it needs to be done at times, they will be nothing more than armed typists if they are smart.

You cannot fight a war by saying harsh words with veiled threats. Sometimes you have to get dirty. The gangbangers know this and so do the bloodsucking lawyers waiting for the next phone video so they can win the ghetto lottery.

The citizenry got just what they wanted, a castrated police force.

8/10/2010 06:34:00 AM........................ ........ . . I agree, Why can't the media, FOP, or somebody see this and call out J-fled on this Bullshit!! If it takes three to six hours for a car to respond to something like a burglary or assault report the citizen is not going to wait and it is going to get coded out and when it happens again the citizen is not going to call the police because they know it is going to take the police forever to show up. Another thing, what was the amount of wasted man hours on these bullshit stats.????

Blame the media, Jfled. If they would just ignore crime stories then we would feel safe. Damm newspapers and the crime stories. Do not let the truth out. Wait until this weekend.

Fox News on Channel 32 is reporting that "a trust fund has been set up for 'the children.'"

Boy, that was fast. Which rev got to the bank first? For whose children? How many? Was this five-year-old the family's (or "blended family's") sole means of support? Who gets the checks? I'm having a little trouble here.

"Interesting to see if this was a 'legal' gun."

Ha. They're looking at some 17-year-old. Don't know what his relationship was to anyone. Don't know what anyone's relationship to anyone is any more in some parts of town. Place is just full of people. Remember that arson-for-insurance not long ago in Cicero? There were FORTY in that house.

OK, forget about the five-year-old shot by his twin. He's history. I got up for a second here -- just for a second -- and by the time I walked to the bathroom the radio in there (WBBM) was reporting that two girls, both under 10 years old, have been shot at 107th and Indiana, that one has died, and police are looking for two shooters on bicycles.

Again -- when are they going to start charging admission?

Get rid of all the illegals and you'd be absolutely astonished how much "wiggle room" you'd suddenly have in social programs -- not to mention in traffic, on the beaches, in the parks, in the schools, in the emergency room on Sabado noche, or just plain waiting in line at the store.

Even the trees would get a break -- they wouldn't have to work as hard churning out oxygen, not to mention the fact that there wouldn't be so many sh___ty cars with one headlight knocking them down all the time...

They were keeping crime down in 016 this way a long time before anyone ever heard of Weis. A forcible burglary -- with pry marks, as you say -- gets piddled down to a "theft from building" -- like you were some kind of idiot who left your power tools laying around in the hallway. Someone knock you down? Didn't happen. Someone strike you with a thrown object? Didn't happen. We're talking about our vacation plans. F__k you.

Some of these people being sent out to bolster manpower on the West Side in August? Glad to hear it.

Did someone say we were getting another ribbon? I am hoping for something in dark blue and gold to fill out a row. Another green one would clash.

One more ribbon and I can get rid of the high school marching band ribbon I have been using in that spot on the ribbon rack. Or maybe I will retire the Old Style Beer ribbon. Hmmmm, well, that decision can wait.

70%?

I can't believe that the stats are even 30% legit.

The same people who give out crowd estimates also give out crime stats. I would take a tip from a broken down horse player at Maywood Park race track before I believe anything put out by this police department.

Yeah, you'll need 'em all to march with "McInerny's Band" at the head of the Billiken Parade. Safer in front. Stragglers get dragged off behind a bush and eaten. Law of the Jungle.

Crunch, crunch, crunch. Rrrr!
