Another Multiple Shooting?
Three more shot, but remember, it only counts as one:
- Police responded to a call of shots fired in the park on Kedzie Avenue just south of 67th Street about 8:45 p.m., said Chicago Police News Affairs...
Three people, including a 16-year-old girl who was seriously injured, were shot in Marquette Park tonight, authorities said.
And so far, the media has missed the opportunity to ask, "How many people went to bed with more bullet holes than they started with?" We did see one figure that said Chicago had over 1,000 people shot this year - that's over four shot a day.
That seems low, but any number this city comes up with is going to be suspect.

im shocked
0013hrs shot fired at police at near 65th and Seeley,,,,please God keep them safe.
It's not the same Marquette Park that we remember as a kid.... Not at all...
And that's not all! A 50-year-old man was shot in the back and there was a shooting on 65th and Damen, where shots were fired at officers, that has yet to be reported by mainstream media.
This city has gone to hell!
one shot tonight in 017 at 3300 w. sunnyside at aprox 2315 hours... no arrests or suspects, no body saw a thing...
1 Wounded In 2nd Police-Involved Shooting Within Hours
http://www.chicagobreakingnews.com/2010/08/1-wounded-in-2nd-police-involved-shooting-within-hours.html
does it suprise anyone--- this shit happens everyday.... time for some ceasefire posters and a couple of seatbelt missions, that will make marquette park safe....
Did any of the five-year-wonders in the Policy Group even bother to check to see whether or not the new crime computer was plugged-in before they left the office for the weekend?
They only count RD numbers, not the number of people shot. If someone gets shot in a robbery then it's a robbery and not an aggravated battery. They kill crime it is a joke.
Yea, counted as one...... But the public ain't as stupid as government think they are - multiply hits but counted as one.... trying to make them believe that the numbers trump the perception.... 1 incident counted vs mutiply hits...
What do you mean suspect? Are you saying there weren't 6.3 million people at the bub bibliken parade and air show combined?
If two people are shot and killed in one incident is it counted as one homicide?
My how that nieghborhood has changed since about 25 years ago. Are residents just too violent there today?
Plus, they were all outies.
This is the wimpiest media Chicago has ever seen. They are parrots on the arms of Daley/Weis et al. Pathetic. It's like reporters have no idea how to report any higher than the level of Sesame Street. Except on Sesame Street the kiddies know how to count from 1 to 10. When is the public going to start gagging on blank stare media droning?

it's Blago poppin some caps before he goes to the big house.
work in 008,we had no one to respond to the shooting at marquette park,after like 10 calls outside unit shows up,then a 10 sector car gets a 30 sector job,we have no cars,no manpower,in a rap all tour,most districts go thru this but when is the fucking media going to expose dick daley for his failure to hire more police as the violence continues and the failure of j-fled to lead this dept.?
How many more people have to die mr. mayor before you stop playing politics with this. dept. and this city?
why in the 008th dist. j-fled do we have 8-10 po's after 3rd and 1st watch roll calls standing in the hall waiting for a polce car so we can do our job?
why don't we have enough working cars stuperintendent weis?
didn't you buy $58 million dollars worth of tahoes?
why don't we have cars?
are you to busy making dugan a scapegoat and your driver a sgt?
how about doing the job your not qualified for and look out for the heart and soul of this dept.-the patrol div.,give us the tools we need to do our job.
does your pdt and ac work in the suv ur driven around in? bet it does.
what a joke this dept. has become,thanks dick and weisal.

IUCR stands for Illinois UNIFORM CRIME REPORTING. Thats how it's been for a LONG time. Now if that guy dies in the robbery/shooting, it's a homicide. The heirarchy of crime reporting. Don't they teach that at the academy anymore? It's so crime can be compared UNIFORMLY around the county.
OT- great job and a big thank you to MSF for the assist in 012 last night at the ABLA family reunion, much appreciated....

OK... What happened? Simon City Royals vs Gaylords? 017 has a VERY minor gang problem. It is otherwise a very slow district with a bunch of whiners.
yes folks, you cant let thoese lugen emmigrants be anywhere around fire arms as you see the result.
It,s not the same Marquette Park that we remember as a kid.........Its not the same Marquette Park area that we remember either. I am a senior citizen born and raised in this area and raised my kids here also.One evening, many years ago, we noticed a car park on the end of the block, The passsenger, who appeared to be in his mid twenties, got out and started to walk up and down the hlock. We kinda figured out what he was up to. My one son, who also was in his mid twenties, went out and approached the individual and told him "not here, not on my block buddy". The individual got back into his car and left. Now, what does that tell you?

here's how it's counted:
One incident of homicide with
two Victims. Look at your field reporting manual.

Actually haven't you read any of Joseph Waumbaugh's fiction?
It's not a homicide. It's a dual suicide.
"Killing crime" is an appropriate term. Pretend all is well.
Did anyone see the Dateline piece tonight on kids killing kids in Chicago?
Only Slightly off topic. I was just forced to endure a 4hr class on UCR (Unified Crime Reporting). I was only slightly surpirxed when I found out that with this new URC system that took effect in 2010, the stats will mean absolutely nothing. An example is the fact that if you have one bad guy shoots 4 victims at the same time, that is only on agg batt or homicide. If one bad guy breaks into 15 hotel rooms, that is one theft (not even a burglary), likewise, if 6 cars get broken into on the same night, even though they occur on 3 separate blocks, that is only one theft (again, cars aren't burglaries). There is NO WAY anyone can trust these figures. The old UCR was bad, this new one is a train wreck. The govt will use these new stats to try and sell the country/city/state that crime is down and we don't need additional police on the street. If the media would put this out the public would scream bloddy murder...
HIRE MORE POLICE!
(sorry I shouted but I need to be heard...)
Hiding the stats just like hiding how understaffed the Detective division is.
Shortshanks and jfled should be hung, drawn and quartered. There is so much innocent blood on their hands, their own parents are ashamed, and would deny knowing them.
I'm in my mid thirties and I wasn't allowed to go to Marquette Park as a kid. Its been shit for awhile, this is nothing new.
