West Side Goes Up

  • An ongoing gang conflict that may have resulted in the deaths of five people on the West Side since noon Friday, according to a police source. At least ten other people were wounded during unrelated shootings in other areas of the city Friday night into early Saturday.

    A police source said late Saturday morning that a gang conflict that started about two weeks ago at Lexington Streets and Pulaski Road is to blame for the five slayings. Details were not immediatley available about the reported conflict.

Between the 010 and 011 Districts, they accounted for five slayings in a little under fourteen hours. Not a bad start to a cool weekend.

hmmmm, now im curious. Where was msf mostly deployed when they existed.. oh yeah, 011, 015, 010 and 025... now ive never been in msf, tru or any citywide unit but maybe dude knows that the extra coppers arent out there... why? because they are out there cutting people paper and helping out(which we do appreciate) but some sort of citywide unit needs to be in place. even 140 coppers would be good enough. put the entire unit in 011 and 015 and it will quell the violence. It use to work when sos was around. I remember when I worked in 011 and sos would come in after it went up and after a weekend of them around it went silent... Its funny how quiet it would be by sunday night after sos did there thing... not touting msf or tru but I do think its related to disbanding the units. Like them or not they did deep dude under raps a little bit when they were around.

Control what is reported, to the police and by the news media.

If it is covered up, not reported, it never happened.

Watch for these thug mobs to get chased out of downtown and into outlaying under policed communities.

Stay safe, those little .380s do not have enough firepower.

Yes, I live in a burb (and thanks to shorty many of his Cabrini/Robert Taylor friends are now moving in), but 5 killed in such a small area, way to go!

In one weekend a few blocks in Chicago have more killing than a few suburbs have in over ten years.

Will G-Spot once again disavow existence of gang involvement in these instances? Will we be told "NONE" when he's asked if gangs had anything to do with this news?

For what it's worth, G-Spot...you ain't seen shit yet. The West Side has unlimited potential when it comes to wreaking havoc and mayhem. The fellas are just getting warmed-up.

I can't wait to see your game plan come the Dog Days of July and August, playa.

Don't worry. The very reverend Jesse Jackass and supernintendo McFib just said that we can't call mobs what they are, can't address the race of the offenders, and basketball will solve all of the problems we have with violence.

Between that and the confidence of Rahm, we're set. I think I'll take the family to North Avenue beach next hot day by way of public transportation.

I'm a believer. I have hope for change. How could anything bad happen in Obamao's home town?

Here's what I'm scratching my head about...WBBM Radio 780 AM reported this morning that a nude bike ride took place yesterday that traveled thru 001; 018; and 023 in the middle of the morning; there were 500 of the psychos out there. It was reported that "it was all in good fun" and no arrests were made.

Jesus, I'm old...and, thankfully, retired. What the Christ has happened to the Chicago PD? No arrests for this?

6/12/2011 12:15:00 AM


Before SOS, the 'Flying Squad' did the same thing and SOG before them, but that was a different time, a different society and a different breed of cop. Today's society ACCEPTS the fact that they will be victimized for their money or iPhone or iPod. They would rather willingly submit to the plundering of their homesteads and families than let the police rule the streets and keep the beast in line.

Heaven forbid the savages should catch a slap or a crack or a thump should they step outside of society's rules... Today, if you try to police through fear or intimidation, that we all know works better with the 'underworld dregs of society', there better not be a video camera, cell phone or witness around, or you'll get indicted.

So now THEY must deal with their choices. The criminals get the gentle PC, hands-off treatment and Mr. Citizen gets the slap or crack or thump as he gets victimized.

Sorry Mr Citizen but this is YOUR choice... you chose when you voted for people like Daley and Madigan and Quinn and the little ratface Luis Gutierrez and the former gang leader Bobbie Rush etc, etc.

How do like your politically correct, left wing liberal society now?

EXACTLY. Trauma care is extremely expensive. Can someone out there crunch the numbers and report how much it costs per year, to treat known gangmembers/criminals that get shot. Not innocents in a crossfire or justifiable shootings. Just thugs shooting thugs.

The screwball who organized this was on WBBM radio just now, whining that "he put his bag down and when he went to get the bag again, it wasn't there. He hopes that it will be returned."

Unbelievable.

Oh -- there was also some kind of "zombie" mob event.

I couldn't care less what sewage Hollywood pumps out, so I don't know -- but I suspect that this "zombie" thing has something to do with me being screamed at in the street by seventeen-year-old white assholes, long speeches about "dead people" and "you're ignoring me." Twice this week.

Yes, I am ignoring you. Very perceptive.

Suggestion -- This is a very big city with all sorts of people walking around.

They are not your school friends. They are not your friends at all.

You have absolutely no idea who you're bothering, and no idea of what the consequences might be.

No one cares what stupid movie you saw. Shut the fuck up and mind your own business.

Oh. Whatever you do out of your bellowing, exaggerated self-importance, DON'T TOUCH.

011 just got almost 50 from msf/tru. They are out there, but cutting paper? I doubt it. 4 hours on a coded domestic. They are too busy complaining about handling paper jobs and telling their war stories of being "elite". Why didn't they prevent the 4 homicides in 011?

In my humble opinion, msf and tru needed to be downsized a bit. However, I think eliminating them is a mistake. When they were in the disrticts (before being disbanded) they should have been available for radio calls if the district was in a backlog. If not, by all means run around and lock people up. I'm just sayin.
