Uh...A Lot of People Got Shot
At least 10 people were killed, including a 6-year-old girl, in shootings over the weekend in Chicago.
The slain were among at least 49 people wounded in shootings from 5 p.m. Friday to 6 a.m. Monday, according to information compiled by the Chicago Tribune.
At the Tribune link, Mc(insert insult here) says he and his crack staff was able to "connect the dots" between shootings that occurred and then a few hours later, the retaliatory shooting. Color us underwhelmed. Any asshole with a basic knowledge of street gang territories can draw a line from Point A to Point B after a shooting occurs. We went through two-years-plus of the Crystal Ball Unit that was supposed to use Deputy Officer Chief Goldfinger's magic restaurant reservation system to "predict" crimes, especially Aggravated Batteries.
After two years and a few million dollars, the number of shootings predicted by the downtown eggheads stood at exactly ZERO. Oh, they claimed at least one accurate prediction, but if you gather info on one shooting in the Insane Assholes territory, then draw a "box" about a mile-and-a-half square on the border between the Insane Assholes and the Unknown Assmunchers, you're going to get a hit in a few days, but that doesn't actually prevent the shooting.
Rahm, who hasn't been heard from all weekend as the bodies piled up, is outraged after MSNBC.com broke the news embargo and pointed out the bloodbath on city streets:
The city of Chicago will step up efforts to combat gang violence in light of a bloody weekend in which 10 people were killed and 39 shooting victims were wounded, Mayor Rahm Emanuel vowed Monday.
“The violence this past weekend is unacceptable to me and every law-abiding Chicago resident,” Emanuel said. “ Our streets belong to the families and children of our city; not to the gangs and gangbangers.
“The violence this weekend underscores that Chicago has a unique gang problem, and I have discussed with Supt. [Garry] McCarthy a citywide anti-gang strategy similar to the successful strategy CPD recently used with the Maniac Latin Disciples.”
Chicago police officers arrested more than 1,800 members of the Maniac Latin Disciples gang from last June through the end of February, after McCarthy declared war on them for shooting and wounding two young girls by mistake at a Northwest Side park in June.
Which proved exactly what? There are still hundreds of MLD's around. One of them even designed the recently canceled city sticker if we recall. And since we're retired, we'll reveal that little Herbie had a record any gangster would be envious of - and in each case, was a self-admitted gang banger and proud of that fact. The word "unrepentant" comes to mind.
That "animal" tag cuts both ways and a child paid the price.

Getting tired of the phrase 'gun violence'.
Guns aren't violent.
Criminals using guns - there's your violence.
no it wasnt!!!!! the girl got shot and responding officers saw the guys walking a block away after ditching the hot car. What a lie! They didnt connect anything! It was pure luck of responding officers seeing these two idiots walking around right after the shooting. I hate the lies! He is taking away all credit from the arresting officers and saying that they are the reason the offenders are in custody. bullshit all the way
I would say that the atmosphere on the department would change if the supe was replaced but I don't even think that would help. I glanced through the exempt list and can't find one person that would inspire the troops to go out and go the extra mile anymore. Sure we are dangerously short officers. But if there was a positive vibe given out starting from the top I think that the majority of Pos would want to go out and work harder in order to pick up the slack. Most Pos have worked through bad bosses, terrible work environments and went out and got the job done period. Now with inept bosses running around not knowing what to do we basically have a rudderless ship that shows no signs of getting back on course anytime soon.
wrt: "Chicago police officers arrested more than 1,800 members of the Maniac Latin Disciples gang from last June through the end of February, after McCarthy declared war on them for shooting and wounding two young girls by mistake at a Northwest Side park in June."
What does it prove?
-----------------
Exactly!!
Out of the 1,800 arrested how many were charged and convicted and are currently serving time?
More importantly how many civil liberty suits are in the pipe against the city from it?
Who we kidding here?
The city can make the arrest number any number they like. We seen how they work and how the media is at their beckon call to parrot the PR's without question.
Case in point is the 911 response time reduction non-sense. Oh the numbers were down all right when you compare them to handling calls in a record snow storm that paralyzed the city for days.
It's an embarrassment to watch. Like that Iraqi Minister of Information comical ali talking about no US troops in Baghdad.
Comstat works!! No really it does! Trust me! Just let me fudge the numbers a second...
Ok weather was cold but crime was downs because we are gang obliterating geniuses with compstat being the biggest reason foe the reduction of crime..
Weather was unseasonalbly warm and thats the reason why crime was up NOT because comstat is useless...
Ok yes we know it was proven to be a scam in NY but here it really works!
See you get numbers, throw them at Commanders at the meetings in a condescending manner. They will work at trying to address those stats then BAM!!! At the next meeting throw some different useless stat at them and ask them what they did about it ( again in a condescending manner).
If that doesn't work than you say oh we now know why it didn't work last time but truly the compstat gods have shown us the true way to retool and fix the problem!!!
"The violence this past weekend is unacceptable to me and every law-abiding Chicago resident,” Emanuel
Hold on there rhammy boy. I'm a law abiding Chicago resident and find the violence 100% acceptable. Those mutts can kill each other all they want and it wont bother me the least. It just proves that THEY will never be civilized.
connect the dots, la lalala connect the dots la lalala Maybe pee wee herman ran the last accountability meeting?
Wow 1800 arrested big fucken deal out of all these probably 4 will actually serve time. Hey assholes just cause they get arrested doesn't mean they're going to sit in jail...its a joint effort and many times cook county is not supporting...and Mc Carthy is not fucken superman, all he does is try to do what you say 8000 P.O.'s can not handle 3.6 million+++ people who the fuck are you trying to bullshit here!!!WOW 1800 arrested 4 will serve time and 100000 still out there...
Taken from a SlumTimes article regarding the weekend's bloodletting:
Beat cops and gang officers have been meeting over maps to chart the turf and membership of gangs in the district, McCarthy said. That information will be merged with gang intelligence from the police department’s existing databases, he said.
The detailed information about gang membership will be available to officers in their beat cars, McCarthy said.
--------------------------------
Bullshit. I challenge you to find even ONE beat copper whose knowledge has been tapped for 'intelligence'. Furthermore, the way this reads, it sounds like these make-believe meetings between beat cops and gang officers were in direct response to this weekend's 'extracurricular' gang activities. Pray tell, just when and where did all this information sharing take place? Because this is the first time anybody I know has heard about it.
And how exactly is this freshly gleaned 'detailed information' going to find it's way into beat cars? It sure as hell won't be via PDTs seeing that 80-90% of patrol vehicles don't have a PDT; the ones that do grace the interior of a car are used for tables seeing that they seldom work.
This is nothing more than another helping of smoke and mirrors, Windy City style. Too bad for Rahm, Garry and the rest of the bozos at Fort Fellatio that the public seems to be slowly getting the message about what is REALLY going on.
They want our city to burn so that the President can impose martial law and maybe even delay the elections. Rahm is here to insure that happens by keeping the police department understaffed so that this summer it is overwhelmed by the violence in the ghettos. Then when the President sends in the troops and brutally suppresses the ghettos he will be seen as a savior of the country – willing to use force even against his own people.
The useful idiots are always the first victims of the socialist tyrants.
When things get really crazy we’ll suddenly see the press change its tactics and they’ll promote us as heroes while embellishing the violence instead of hiding it.
Most of the people will fall for the trick and begin to think the world of our tyrant president – they’ll think him the great savor of the country.
The president just issued a new Executive Order dealing with martial law last Sunday.
The value of this site -- saw headline about weekend violence on Drudge, and came right here to get the real deal. It was worth the trip for the history on "pre-crime" experiments alone. Great resource!
--Civilian (once arrested by Chicago PD but it's all good)
well looks like the nbc isn't going to any of rahmbo's "special" press -ops for a while
"No coffee and cheese blintz's for You!"
daring to print the real truth
"( that SCC has been saying all along)"
Rahmbo and Mc Nutty were a little slow on the obvious" you can't put the spin of a story and keep trying trying to spin after the facts are out
as stated here before when you find your digging yourself into a hole, quit digging before you bury yourself
This is the real "March Madness"
I am glad that Rham is bothered, because for a second there I thought he would try to lie until the end that "crime is down" with Mc Carthy. But seriously, those two actually thought they could keep lying and yes, crime is up to the roof. Its going to continue and this is just the begining, summer is not even here yet. Chalkie is gonna be busy...
The grieving mother showed her colors when she said that she hoped that the shooters would one day feel what she and her family feel.
A not so veiled threat of gang retaliation.
Pure savagery.
There are almost never random victims of these shootings, the children that get shot are almost always related to the targets. The only ones that think these are innocent bystanders are the pimple headed reporters.
I recall an "accidental" shooting in Cabrini some years ago. Just some kid, randomly hit. The kid was shot in retaliation. He was related to the man they wanted to send a message to.
Surprised no one seems to have caught this from a few days ago:

Anyone else heard that "Niketown" is not going to re-open due to Mag Mile "problems"?
What mcjersey shore never mentions about the mld arrests is that he counts an mld arrest every time the same mld gets arrested. The same mld have been arrested 5-6 times for differs reasons and guess what they are still there on the same corners.
I'm actually starting to miss Jody.
The violence in Chicago was noted on the Bing website.
How much money has been spent on CEASEFIRE, CAPS and Tio Hardiman again? Don't you just love the payoff for University of Chicago and UIC elites' abstract thinking?

1. '...go the extra mile...'?
are you fucking retarded?
2. 'sure..... but...'?
what are you, the ice cream vendor?
3. '...in order to pick up the slack.'?
what fucking slack? there is no slack, ass suck.
4. '...not knowing what to do...'?
unfuckingbelievable.
McStoolsample & dat l'il Boris Karloff looking fucker in a tutu weren't saying shit (even though they both have mouthfuls of it) this weekend while this city was being torn to pieces...
As soon as the smoke clears, here they come with dat bullshit.
These two clowns are the ruination of this city.
"We have a plan..."
No the fuck you don't!
"We're going to use every resource we have..."
*Cue ghetto laugh track*
"We don't need to hire more cops, we have enough"
*Loud fart. Stink and a giggle*
"Department members have 1st Amendment rights..."
*Aww c'mon!*
"...Bring discredit to the Department."
*Mmm Hmmm... Said the dishonorable gold star panty-less hang gliding hoe kneeling in broken glass to kiss a demented l'il fucker's ass... Didja spit in your hand for the reach around?*
The circus train of fuckery has broadsided the hearse of the ass-clown funeral just as it stalled on the crossing into the cemetery...
Ain't no puzzling these assholes...
They're fucking insane.
Wrong or right this was a little kid!
No one should be dealing with this
Madness., where's the Ald Munez!
But there are no more beat cops to get the information! There is only zone officers and the non zone officers. And compstat does works, not a single homicide occured in the VRZ's (violence reduction zone),which is the new strategy de jour. Now all we need is 10000 more officers and we can take this strategy citywide!!
how about quit funding cease fire,a bunch of gang member collecting check from the government..
about if your a gangbanger you dont receive section 8 and link card..i am sick of paying for their medical and children..
take care of the troops..mcCEO.
all this happening and nato coming to town. do you think any tourists are changing their plans on a visit here? the atmosphere is not very inviiting. they think if you put a gloss on the situation the public wont notice. one term rahm?
There has been so many times that I have come to work on midnights and I wasn't told that there has been a shooting in my district earlier in the day. It is sad that I have to find out that there has been a shooting on a civilian blog (uptown update)
well keep feeding these welfare rats for votes...
the only way to stop this violence is to do it thge dupage county way: charge everybody with everything. but their states attorneys have balls and really what am I talking about, WE ARE IN CROOK COUNTY.
What would Phil Cline do?
McSherlock?.....that's a good one.
Vote Rahm for Safety
At some point the blabber coming out of the mouths of the Supt. and the Mayor will mean nothing. Dead bodies, especially those of children, showing up at the overcrowded morgue will scream out for justice. This administrtion are experts at controlling and twisting the news. When will our citizens get fed up with the carnage and demand answers. Time will only tell. Imagine a connected asshole's family member catching a round...THE SKY WOULD FALL!

See? He's covered. He's weighed in.
He's rubber-stamped the complaint, and put it in the "Out" box.
Next!
This is all just "sponge listening."
"Thank you for telling us about the problem, Sir."
We're not going to do anything about it, though.
The violence last year was "unacceptable" to him too.
Et cetera.
Notice how he is still collecting a fat paycheck.

Kindly stop referring to that shameless, lying, cowardly piece of shit as "Jody". He will take his well-earned nickname J-FLED to his grave.
Granted, this McCarthy is a real doosie. Notwithstanding, I'd take a few of him before that disgraceful J-FLED any day. Based on the current NYPD Schoolcraft Scandal alone, this "CONstat" bullshit will unravel as the fraud that it truly is.
Read this book. CLICK on The CRIME NUMBERS GAME: Management by Manipulation. This is the "CONstat" coup de grace.
GOTTA RUN!
EMT's remember. High speed driving is very dangerous. I would only risk my safety for the innocents. If some banger gets shot I wouldn't risk my safety rushing him in.In other words let the fuckers bleed out they don't deserve top notch trauma care.

Crain's Chicago Business just had a story saying that U of C has donated another $120,000 to Ceasefire. (Subscription site.)
Tio Hardiman is just a water boy. Ceasefire is operated by a Dr. Gary Slutkin.

"GOOD LUCK, HERBIE!
"By MICHAEL SNEED msneed@suntimes.com March 15, 2012 2:16AM
"Second chance . . .
"Sneed has learned Herbie Pulgar, the 15-year-old kid whose award-winning Chicago city sticker design was yanked amidst allegations of gang signs in his art, is getting another chance.
"To wit: “I hired him to design a T-shirt,” said former Fox News producer Jason Erkes, who runs Chicago Sport & Social Club.
"$$$$: “I called Herbie’s mom weeks ago when he was still bummed out due to all the controversy. The shirt will be given out to 20,000 of our spring participants. And he’ll be compensated, but he signed on not thinking he’d get a dime. I think the kid totally got shafted.”

"Rahm, who hasn't been heard from all weekend as the bodies piled up..."
Well, he tried. Just keep quiet, and hope nobody will notice.
He reminds me exactly of a character who told me, "When you move into a new apartment, take pictures of everything to prove the condition.
"Then don't have the film developed unless there's a problem."
You save a whole $1.98 that way...
McNutty said on Roe Conn show that he doesn't believe we need more officers! Huh? Really?
He's been neutered by Rahm so I guess his comments, although completely false, shouldn't come as a shock.
"Rahm, who hasn't been heard from all weekend as the bodies piled up, is outraged..."
Interesting that just a few months ago this asshole was TAKING CREDIT for the lack of killin' during some ridiculously short time period.
He's nowhere to be found when it's time to TAKE BLAME.
That poor dickhead McCarthy is on TV, all by himself. Scapegoat? No, not in Chicago!
Pfleger was on TV (the white Jesse Jackson) bitching about how none of the candidates running for office was talking about the violence.
What this fool fails to realize is that the violence isn't a problem in most communities, and therefore isn't a problem to most voters.
They're concerned about their jobs, their pensions, property values (so they can move out of Chicago) and the economy.
W.W.K.D.
I wish I could finf someone to produce these bracelots. Sell em for 5 bucks give the rest to Cozzi.
Could you see the look on McNuttys face when he saw all of wearing them at St. Jude?
"Vote Rahm for Safety"
That was for TRAFFIC SAFETY ONLY.
Y'know, red light & speeding cameras.
Gang bangers killing each other and innocent kids?

During the Boer Wars in South Africa, the Dutch fought a guerilla resistance against British occupation. Since they were unable to house prisoners of war they cut their thumbs off instead. Because a man without thumbs can not effectively operate a firearm.

so, what you're saying is, if all the politicians had their tongues cut out, they couldn't lie to us anymore?
o/t: anybody see MC's interview on CBS2?.....we have to stop the retaliation shooting...we have to stop the illegal flow of guns.....
okay....there are about 300 million firearms in the US; as an aside, about 50-70K gang members in Chicago (give or take), and how many tons of dope come into the US every year (no OT for Narcotics!)......now what?
