Wilding Arrest

  • A 15-year-old boy who was part of a group beating a male on the street outside Water Tower Place Saturday night was charged with felony mob action.

    The attack happened at 8:26 p.m. in the 800 block of North Michigan Avenue, according to police News Affairs [...]. The teen’s name was not being released because he is a juvenile.

    A Chicago police officer in the area at the time saw what he thought was a group of people "acting rambunctiously, jumping up and down" and when he got closer, he saw the group was beating up a male of an unidentified age....

    All others in the group fled the scene but the boy was arrested. The victim declined to prosecute and was not taken to a hospital....

So evidently, the "wilding," "gooning," or just general mayhem is still going on in the North Michigan Avenue area, it just isn't being covered as heavily lest the citizens become panicked and do something silly, like start carrying guns.

I know this is a dream but I would just love to see about 30 regular folks run up to these little Thugs and beat the living shit out of them chasing them back to the Ghetto. That is how we will stop Flash Mobs.

Slightly OT, but interesting. It would appear that the honor students are hard at work on the other side of the puddle.

The Mayor's Propaganda Office is probably more worried about people not shopping there, thereby depleting the clout-heavy political donors from making money for their overpriced merchandise.

Meanwhile...why is it all our political leaders in this state are taking trips to Israel?

No sooner than Governor Quinn returns from Israel and now Jesse Jr. has to go to Israel.

The only thing that I see going on in Israel is 300,000 college age people protesting the high cost of living and jobs...

What is this fixation with Chicago politicians taking trips to Israel?

It doesn't help that the "victim" declined to prosecute. If that's the case, then the next action should be "move along folks, nothing to see here".

If your only news source wasn't this blog you'd have seen this story. That's right, even the hated mainstream liberal media covered it.

Isn't there some way to prosecute, say, a disorderly or the like? C'mon, let's get serious about this.

The victim is probbaly afraid. Or, the goons didn't do much damage and the victim is laughing at their attempts of causing him harm. If they can prosecute w/o a cooperating witness in domviolence cases, then go forward with this one.


Solution, give the victim Burke's security detail!

Carrying a gun is a great idea. Perhaps the new Smith called the governor that fires 410 shotgun shells as well as 45 ACP and 45 Colt. Better to break the "law" re CCW than be killed by one of these punks.

"Wilding"? "Gooning"?

How about, "Thugging"?

...or how about "Punking"?

...perhaps "Ass Hollening"?

...or maybe even "Aggravated Battering"?

...leading to "Attempt Murdering"

As it is here, so it is in other countries of the West, which are undergoing the same degeneration.

Here, a city in flames, looters running through the steets carrying only the very latest brand names...and one cannot find a physical description of the rioters anywhere in the stories.

http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2011/aug/07/tottenham-riots-peaceful-protest

Here, the description --

"Last night as I walked home from the gym, passing lots of young black people who had come out for the festival in Brixton yesterday, I could feel it. Boys with hoods over their heads, on bikes, smiling… White policemen standing in pairs, watching… music blasting in the streets. I turned to my friend. “They’re waiting for something to happen. They’re just waiting to jump.”

"So it came as no surprise to me to wake this morning to find the High Street shops smashed, Brixton tube station closed, and yellow tape cordoning off the roads..."

"When I speak incessantly about people taking responsibility, whoever you are, a teacher, a father, a mother, an ordinary citizen, I am lambasted. None of us believes in personal and collective responsibility anymore. Already, people are saying that these riots are the fault of the [budget] cuts. It is as if we are all brainwashed into never holding anyone to account for what they do!"

It's pretty much like the fixation they have with taking trips to China. A trip is a trip, especially when it's on the taxpayers' dime.

I don't know much about the details, but good work by the police officer, who singlehandedly(?) prevented and stopped what could have been a more serious crime (serious injury to victim, etc.).

Lock the victim up as a mutual combatant. If he wasn't being victimized, then he was part of a mob action.

More mob action occurring over in London. Why on earth would we want to invite that kind of mindless violence over here with the G8 Summit? Can anyone explain why we would want a complete lockdown of the downtown area complete with arson and looting? You would also be putting law enforcement and civilians at great risk of injury or death.

Tee ball banquets, where everyone gets a trophy just for participating.

Educational systems that don't give grades, lest we be 'too judgemental' of fragile egos.

Colleges that pass you along if you simply pay the fees.

Employers whose Human Resources departments advise against firing the problem children, for fear of lawsuits or worse.

'Parents' who walk into police stations for the third, or fifth, time and berate the officers, because "my baby would never do this".

A government that requires nothing of its citizens and non-citizen leeches, but subsidizes them from cradle to grave.

THIS is how it happens.

You are an idiot. In a completely unsafe and unreliable world, Israel is the only nation in the entire world that stands shoulder to shoulder with the United States of America. No other country is more reliable to the U.S.A. than Israel.

The underlying problem is the destruction of the family. The result is a generation of immoral, unprincipled, uneducated alleycats charitably called men who prey on and freely impregnate equally immoral and vunerable young women. Chances are that most of these lousy young vandals and petty thiefs were "raised" by these unwed mothers who are encouraged in their unhealthy lifestyles by the promise of receiving totally unearned "benefits" (ie., welfare/charity/handouts - money earned by their working and contributing neighbors, and heavily "appropriated" by our uninspired taxing agencies to simply hand out to the unproductive drones in our society - thus perpetuating our dying welfare state).

Until personal virtue and the sanctity of family are taught in our schools and re-enthroned in our communities, these riots in the streets and the related vandalism and pillaging (stealing) by those crooks who will never be satisfied with the level of their unearned government handouts will only increase until we have total anarchy

As much as I understand your frustration by all of this. If you were caught targeting this human trash you would be charged with a hate crime and the Revs would just say the kids were just shopping on MI avenue with their Link cards. Let time run its course. It's only a matter of time befofe society has had enough and bites back (CCW).

BTW the vic should have pressed charges if only to send a message to the perps "we will prosecute and this is not behavior that will be ignored". Maybe they will think twice if they know John Q public will prosecute and there is jail time in their future if they go down that road.
