Nicely Done
Chicago police chased down and arrested a gunman who shot and critically wounded another man on the city's West Side, authorities said.
The shooting was one of at least four late night shootings occurring across the city.
Officers saw the unidentified man open fire on the 33-year-old victim at about 10:20 p.m. in the 4300 block of West Madison Street in the West Garfield Park neighborhood, police said, citing early reports.
The victim, who was struck multiple times in the back and abdomen, was taken to Mount Sinai Hospital in critical condition, police said.
The officers quickly chased after the gunman finally taking him into custody. Police hadn't determined the motive for the shooting, saying that suspect wasn't cooperating with investigators.
Big surprise there.
And once again, either by accident of by design, the Tribune reveals the crime increase that Rahm and Garry insist isn't really there:
- As of Sunday, Chicago had 79 more homicides than it did through the same time last year, according to preliminary police statistics. The city has also experienced 177 additional shootings this year.

Will somebody please post that photo of McNumbnuts I saw a few days ago (I don't want to say where) that has him looking over his left shoulder and the caption reads, "BULLSHIT! Telling everyone crime is down when..."

"The city has also experienced 177 additional shootings this year."
THATS the real number we need to worry about, not just the 77 additonal homicides.
Lets face it, if it wasnt for the good Doc's in an ER like Northwestern, Christ or Cook County, we'd have about 77 out of the 177 dead.
The FIB has their own building here. And their a national organization. How do they sit there and not do anything. If im in a city in which crime exceeds expectations. I will need stats!!! and real ones. Then rahmbino asks for help. But its also a beta test. How far will this city tolerate crime which seems a lot and keep in mind .that a homicide here is a drop in the bucket. Compared that those gone are replaced x 10. So shoot your dept ammo to your hearts delight. There wont be no white T-shirt shortage any time soon.
When will people learn, Rham and McLiar says it's down , so that's it, it's down and so is the city, down Tge drain, morale, down, leadership, down man power, down. Down by the river..,
everything is up because we are so shorthanded!
Nice to see our police out doing the job when catching grief from all sides. The city will give absolutely no backing so be very very careful how you conduct yourself.
May the newly discovered flesh eating bacteria discovered in our incarcerated felons visit Barrington Hills.
But in school violence last week was the lowest in 25 yrs... do you not see how this is working?
Off topic, does any techie know if we'll ever get the I-Phone police scanner app back for 16/17 Dists? Every once in awhile it comes in handy to know what's going on around you.
Nicely done guys!
Yes, just add the word "gun" to any call and the cops come running. "Guy's walking his barking dog" Just add gun to the call. Parking ticket violation, just add gun to it.
Since crime is down can we get that million bucks back?
Let's see; US Embassies aflame world wide, US dollar devalued & credit rating dropped AGAIN, Israel abandoned by the US as Iran develops its nuclear bomb to " wipe Israel of the map ", and Chicago is the murder capital of the US ( and probably half of Europe ).
But all the lap dog media can " report ", Romney tax returns, Romney gaffes, Romney uses to much toilet paper.
Where the f**k are some REAL reporters with balls/ovaries?

I'll tell you where. Tio hardmyman was seen driving a brand new shiny black car around the area of keszie n warren. Seems that he was scoping the spits for future crime prevention. But he ain't telling. No sir he not a bitch, I mean snitch.
Chicago deserves the "leadership" it voted for, both on the local level, and the national level. Chicago slobbered shamelessly for Obama in 2008, and the images of all those idiots in Grant Park on election night is still nauseatingly memorable. And Rahm was a forgone conclusion from day one.
You cops are golden, but are pawns in the big game. Smile and play, or move out. Sorry, but that is the reality of the Chicago Way.
Love you, SCC!
Im not advocating a slow down or a strike but could u imagine if no coppers were on the streets for a night? A bloodbath would be a understatement.

Off topic, but Fusco and Novak, how about doing stories about the cancer clusters at various CFD and CPD facilities?
How about doing stories about the failure of the city to pay legitimate and vetted medical bills for injured POs?
How about doing some stories about the connected dairy (Ed Burke's buddy) that supplies milk for the CPS and under-delivers, overbills and is 2million dollars higher than the next highest bidder.
Fusco and Novak, How about doing stories on the crippled guys who's squad cars hit the old style planter boxes? Or how people can't get decent medical treatment for their injuries because the city sends officers to the lowest bidder. I'd rather pick my doctor than be sent to someone who needs an interpreter to talk with you and has a degree from a medical school that doesn't teach in English.
Until then, you two (Fusco and Novak) suck our collective dicks.
know the area pretty good
did work in the pawn shop right by there
usually a pretty busy street
i'm not surprised that they were in the area cops stop at the store across the street from the pawn shop all the time
i'm just surprised he would do it right out on the main drag
isn't that also the place of that illegal nightclub that the alderman has an instrest in?
i remeber a blog here earlier stateing the chicago cops "didn't know Who they are dealing with"(like they give a rat's ass:))
as rahm asked pleading
can't you take to the alley?
I just got word from some of you 1st watch pussies that Sgt. S.M. insulted the entire watch during roll call. He said that "most of you guys are at the school parking lot sleeping". When in reality you guys on 1st watch bring in numbers, are aggressive and do an overall good job. And you guys just took it. Not one of you spoke up or did something. There were rumors that this asshole of a Sgt. was coming to 3rd watch. Let me tell you, he wouldn't last on our watch because if someone pushes us, we push back. Plus some of us are still "old school".
Welcome back to the west side Sal. That m1 is lucky you didn't open up on him as he was doing the shooting on the once honors student. (Sarcasm)

What a scam we have going using "the children" as tools. Everyone's getting in the act now.
Where's that roof-top reverend too?
Now that's a pretty good deal.
You travel cross country and get to see the USA on the backs of "the children" with the hope of building a recreation center. Oh-no no-no-no, I'm drawing attention to this social problem by traveling cross country.. No really...it's for the kids. HA!
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY.
Ya know if we were to shut down the entire police department and then take that money and use it to gamble in the stock market, fund more tax breaks for corporations to create fake part time temporary work jobs,etc.. we could point to a booming economy here!
I means it's a lot of money.
Of course crime would also be exploding but as long as it's in the alley's and not on your block who cares! Look at those stock prices don't look at the crime rates.
Oh wait. We're already doing that.
Never-mind.
Here it comes again...
TAX-TAX-TAX-TAX-TAX-TAX
But not for the corporations.
When are we going to implement an incentive evaluation system tied to wages for the Mayor's job, the Gov. job and the aldermen and all the representatives?
Talk about entitlements.
There's your entitlements right there! Get elected and you don't have to do anything for the next four to six years and you're guaranteed your paycheck regardless of the type of job you're doing.
Nice job but, its not like he shot anyone important. Always remember, todays victim is tomorrows offender.
I think it's the frustration of "Hope and Change," and it's not working in their favor. But, decriminizing pot will hold them over, until the next regime gets in office.

How did you do in the last Spelling Bee you were in? Ever heard of a book they gave us in high school called English Grammar and Composition. I still have mine, from 1966, and refer to it when necessary.
"....except killings....and shootings....and car thefts, those are up, too because the insurance companies say so.....and arson....and bank robberies set a new high again the other day...and thefts from buildings, because we wouldn't want to classify those as burglaries.....which are up, too...."
...and it all has to fit into a very few minutes, all has to be squeezed through the restrictive media sphincter. So much time for "top story," so much time for "local interest," so much time for "medical" story and "diet" story and sports and weather, ending with "cute puppy dog" story.
Floyd Kalber of Channel 5 years ago admitted that he made up each night's "feel good" ending story.
Where's that roof-top reverend too?

He's also the Rev that came home from his "walk" (with donated Jordans) to conduct the funeral services for that piece of sh!t rapper JoJo that got kilt!
All these folks that listen to WG radio in the afternoons can listen to radio host J. Williams plug this Rev. and his movement along with donate their cash to the Rev who supports these gang banging raps thugs.

================
I'm confused,
Why would they lower the flag?
Did the President order it lowered for this guy?
You just don't lower the flag for any reason you deem appropriate.
Read the U.S. Flag Code.
Plus, I'm offended that McDrunkin allowed this guy to be posted on the wall of fallen officers killed in the line of duty.
He was working as a private contractor (long since retired).
He was not acting in the course of police duties.
I just don't believe that he should be on that honored wall.
Sorry if you don't agree with me.
Outstanding job, Po-leece!
Very nicely done!
Heh... Vilified and joyfully hated by the mayor, the city council, the media, the catered to constituents, the hopey changey yellow-pinkies leading the parade to give this city over to the legion in number non-contributing, murder and mayhem spreading dogs.
Why? For the express purpose of divesting and disenfranchising the remnant of the REAL middle class with the muscle memory of what made this city work in order to reboot it into some sad, sorry-assed utopia.
A utopia for THEM where OUR hard work and the hard work of those who wore these blue suits before us has been made a mockery and rendered meaningless.
Yeah... Po-leece gonna keep on being The Police.
Keep doing what you need to do in order to go home safe and sound.
Don't give less than men like the mayor, superintendent, alderfools and the entire host of joyful haters the satisfaction of wiping false tears for bright lights as REAL MEN give one of their fallen brothers back to good Mother Earth after The Almighty has received his spirit.
No satisfaction for the whores of negotiable affection like Fusco & Novak either.
May they be forced to witness the sight & sound of their hopes, dreams and aspirations dying and rotting to a skeleton before their very eyes.
Just like Policemen are forced to witness what is happening to this city.
Maybe then, they'll have some appreciation of our grief, anger and aggravation...
All for the sake of politics and spite...
*You guys are just so full of anger and hate for no good reason. Why can't you be like us instead?*
No... You can't make us sit down and shut up!
The truth will always be worth telling as long as there is someone willing to listen.
There will be a righteous correction and the doers of much fuckery will see their safeguards, buffers and firewalls collapse while they turn on each other...

Dean Chavez elected to the Hegewisch Little league
September 11, 2012
At the Little leage elections Dean Chavez was elected as the Vice President in an open meeting. The most amazing part of this story is that Dean Chavez should still be in prison for a brutal beating death of an Off Duty Chicago Police officer.
The more disturbing part of the story is that he was elected by parents who knew of the story and decided he was a better option than his opponent. While his opponent may have rubbed some people the wrong way I am quite sure that he had never deprived a wife and 3 children their Husband and Father as Dean Chavez did.
The Hegewisch Little League has a large percentage of Police Officers' and Firemen's cxhildren as players.
I guess that the "Brotherhood" that we are a part of does not compare to the strength of "Hegewisch drinking buddies".
My follow up to these two stories will be with the FOP and The Little League Organization of America.
Once a Cop Killer always a Cop Killer is the general rule I live by.

Mayor Rahm Emanuel is considering an increase in city taxes on cigarettes and entertainment to help close an anticipated $369 million gap in next year's budget, City Hall sources said Wednesday.
Those tax hikes are among options being discussed by the mayor's top financial aides three weeks before he delivers his budget address....
--------------------------
Well, cancelling Maggie Daley Park would free up $55 million dollars. Clawing back that million dollars from the Cease Fire do-nothings will help a little more. The $91 million dollars being spent on protected bike paths would put the total at $147 million saved if we canceled those projects and stop spending money like we're rolling in the dough.
Hey look at that we're almost halfway there!!!
Seriously. What are we spending money on these luxuries for when we're broke? These things are not going to benefit the majority of the people that live in this city. It's not even close.
Cancel those projects and just reverse a few corporate tax breaks and we're done.
But nope. We pile on the charges on the cities credit cards so to speak and then play the victim. Oh look at all these bills YOU PEOPLE ran up. Guess we'll have to tax you. heh..
019 CAPS mouse told a CAPS meeting that car thefts are up because more and more people are forgetting where they park. Hilarious.
You could run to gunfire and Chuck would say it took you too long to get there. He could have done it in half the time.

Hire Karen Lewis to help. She made the teachers look great while they were striking. You need the dough and deserve it. But, you guys don't look so great these days (combo of Rahm and Daley plus your own whiny-ness)---you need someone to pump up your image it bit.
Citizens are aware of the killings plus other probs and are afraid. You need an image update.
