Another "Flash Mob"

Twice in three days? Or just getting more coverage:
  • Some time this evening, around 6:30 p.m., a group of African-American teenage shoplifters swarmed a downtown Chicago GAP clothing store.

    Police said the juvenile offenders were caught on tape stealing merchandise from the Michigan Avenue retailer.
The blog has been airing stories for over a year or two now about roving gangs randomly beating people and robbing them all over downtown. Now that businesses are getting hit, all of the sudden it's newsworthy to the mainstream media, but only one time. They wouldn't want to make this look like a regular occurrence or an on-going problem or anything now or what?

Time to show the flag -- put some 2-man K9s down there on foot patrol on Michigan and let the word filter out to the South and West sides when Le'Ron heads back home on the "L" with the seat of his FUBUs ripped out...

If there are student discount tickets on CTA, they should be weekday-only. A minor thing, but anything you can throw in their way.

How can that be?

Nevertheless, good thing that the pod cam department is paying off and it's all on tape though ...right?...right?

Facebook's swarming locusts.

Welcome to the New Age of the FLASH MOB!

The FLASH MOB can be innocent fun when a group abruptly assembles at a public location and starts singing Christmas carols, etc. Like anything else, some people will make it criminal like the incidents at Mayfair Mall near Milwaukee and N. Michigan Ave.

How do you call 9-1-1 and report that "suspicious" roving bands of young blacks are assembling BEFORE they rush the stores. Won't the police dispatcher give the caller the politically correct "you're a racist" runaround until the crimes actually occur and then it's too late. Do the dispatchers even know what a FLASH MOB is?

"Social networking", my ass, Mr. Mark Zuckerberg.

The mainstream media refuses to report the truth that these attacks are invariably perpetrated by roving bands of young blacks.

"Political correctness" is destroying America from within.

Ok, if you can't identify the problem you will not be able to solve it.
Is the problem :
That white people have not helped black people enough over the past 40 years ?
That black people think white people still owe more due to what happened over 100 yrs ago ?
That black people were sold out by the very people they trusted the most and are still trusting for change ?
That both black and white people have been used to achive a goal that does not benifit either ?

Maybe it's a strange coincidence, but they read at roll call the other day that when we work secondary employment, we are not to wear the uniform. You can't even put a security patch over the CPD one.

Ok, fine. But they continued by saying that if you make an arrest while in the employ of another, YOU cannot be listed as the arresting officer. The first on duty copper that shows up will go in Box 1. You will be the complainant. Plus, don't try and put a slip in for your court time. It's expected that your secondary employer will foot the bill, but at a substantially lower rate.

Before I was a police officer, I had a run in with these animals. I was at the Chicago Avenue Red Line stop and I saw a group of black teenagers. About 9 of them. One of them started talking shit to me and I ignored him and then the rest sorrounded me and they threatened to throw me down the tracks. A very scary experience.

Since I was a child I have heard the "40 years" comment. Now over 30 years later "40 years" is still used. When does it become 41 42 43 and so on? Seems 40 is like the magic number when its really 70 or 80 years. Also to be fair its not white people that have helped black people. But it is government liberals that have used the only tool they know of throwing money at social problems to feed the disease that keeps them in office and procure the 97% of black citizens votes. Social programs are designed to make people more comfortable at the American level of poverty, not escape it. If anyone ever escapes our poverty they would not vote for democrats unless that is their base that gives them power and/or fortune. I use the term American poverty because we have the fattest, best housed, and most healthy poor with the best health care in the world. The poor in the United State live like royalty by comparison to any other poverty stricken nation. Their job is to vote Democrat and keep their hand out and organize calling themselves victims.

"Teach a man to fish and he will be a fisherman. (Thats a job that you can feed yourself and your family) Give a man a fish and you will enslave him to you for life. Kind of like when your were a kid your mother always said "Dont feed stray dogs." Why? Because the dog will follow you home, beg for more and not leave. Finally the dog will get made when you try to make it leave. Kind of like what the Democrat party has done to low income people for generations now and they are getting made because we are telling them, No more freebies, and to leave.

Let's not confuse things. A Flash Mob is a group of benign goofballs that get together via Facebook to do silly things like staring at the sky at a particular time at a particular place somewhere.

These "wildings" are criminal acts put together by the dregs of society. They are organized riots. It's what they do best.

To confuse the issue and call it the benign "Flash Mob" underscores the criminal activity that this really is.

The more we take it, the further we have to come back. Unfortunately we are already a long way from civil.

What a joke! It's funny how people can't call it how it is, or they just feel guilty so they refuse to call it how it is. It's not a "flash mob." They are a groupl of criminals who are black.

The mall management at Wauwatosa was on Facebook, sending "you're banned from the mall" messages to every participant they could spot -- for all the good it did. They were actually playing at cyberwar with the sons-of-bitches.

I recommend police dogs.

"Social networking", my ass, Mr. Mark Zuckerberg."

Facebook -- rotating majestically in space and producing nothing -- reckons itself as being worth about 50 BILLION DOLLARS. They know exactly what's going on -- that they are aiding and abetting criminal activity -- and the stores involved should SUE THE CRAP OUT OF THEM EVERY TIME THIS HAPPENS.

Liability. Liability. Liability. The very word stops every other human activity I can think of dead in its tracks out of plain raw fear. It's horrible, wasteful, and destructive, this lawyer-swarm -- so let's turn it loose on Facebook where it might do some good.

Yup.

You missed the step "Flash mob is defined as harmless, defended by all manner of apologists."

Who the s__t cares. The toilet has overflowed, and there is a limit to the average person's interest in and tolerance for every new, meaningless bright color and loud noise.

There always has been. The man is just trying to get through his day -- doing his part in holding civilization together -- and doesn't care that someone is hooting and pulling their pants down. Adolescents -- and perpetual adolescents -- cannot grasp this.

This Facebook nonsense is just the latest consumer package -- like the endlessly-distorted "Sixties," merely a controlled rebellion that's immensely profitable for the people who sell the pipes and papers and posters.

People who walk around all day staring down at a cell phone have withdrawn from engagement with the physical world and reverted to infantile dependence. They are mindless sheep, terrified of being alone, and the more of them get hit by cars and walk over cliffs the better I like it.

Improves the species -- evolution, and all that.

"Iphone 4 Feb. 10" -- get over it.

(A) no, a large number of 'black people' have not, in any honest way, helped themselves.



(Q) "That black people think white people still owe more due to what happened over 100 yrs ago ?"

(A) no, a large number of 'black people' prefer to use their distant ancestor's means of immigration as an excuse to not help themselves.



(Q) "That black people were sold out by the very people they trusted the most and are still trusting for change ?"

(A) no, they don't feel that they've been sold out, only that they've been bought cheap and want to be paid more for doing nothing.


(Q) "That both black and white people have been used to achive a goal that does not benifit either ?"

(A) no, since 'black people' benefit from being 'used' and 'white people' pay for those benefits.



(Q) "THINK!"


(A) which has more value, quantity or quality?
