Stop the Violence!

Now we're hosting "youth summits" to inform the "children" about not being naughty:
  • The Chicago Police Department hosted a town hall meeting to educate the city's youth about the recent rise in violence in some neighborhoods.

    ABC 7's sportscaster Jim Rose was the host and keynote speaker of Saturday's event on the South Side in Ogden Park.

    Kids aged 8-12 years old attended the event to learn how to stop violence and gangs in their areas.
But something must have been lost in translation if you read the story at the top of the page today. Perhaps more jails? More orphanages and debtor prisons? More work farms?

Sorry....we've been reading Dickens lately as inspiration.

Rose appeared on a "Stop the Violence" 'discussion' on Windy City Live channel 7 late Friday night that included Fr Pfleger, Corey(up on the roof) Brooks. a Cease Fire worker, etc. Rose was in near full "blame the police" mode. Almost as sickening to watch as host Ryan Chiaverini "ban the guns" screed. The only one who made sense was Cheryl Burton, who talked bout growing up on the south side and having a good life - with two parents - something no one else was willing to mention.

Kind of a tall order, huh?

The last thing the yoots need is more education on violence, they have that mastered.

Tell them to stop doing the shit, or they're going to jail. Then do it.

I'm so fucking sick of all these "awareness" campaigns. Trust me, the oblivious citizens who were caught unawares on the Mag Mile tonight are painfully aware that they are surrounded by animals who view them as prey -- to be toyed with, or if the mood strikes, attacked and dispatched.

How about that Chicago Fire Riverfront Fiesta the mayor is calling for?!

Oh yeah, you did not hear?

It's gonna be all about the neighborhoods. Bringing the people of the various tribal communities together ...ha.

The rich hoods are gonna sponser the poor hoods to build floats to run down the river -- at that place they just blew $100 million dollars on.

The city is gonna let artist from the hoods design the floats to put out the messages on what they would like to see changed in their communitees. They'll do it for free of course.

The elite entertaining themselves by seeing how many hoops they can get the churls to jump thru, selling them on some b.s.about being somebody.

I can see it now. What kind of free stuff ya gonna get...

Floats with gang signs, like the city sticker competition, floating down the river. Sounds like fun, yeah? Oh look it's the almighty gangster disciples float and right behind it are the taggers from Englewood. Jesse White tumblers..etc...all of it, like court jesters for the Kings amusement. Perhaps if the royal family feels generous that day a few $10 dollar ALL DAY bus passes will be awarded eh?

Acrobats, fireworks the whole nine yards we guess.

The city says it will be just like mardi gras and draw in billions of tourist.

The spectactular finish to this parade will be when all the floats are set on fire (I kid you not, Google it).

When asked how much this is gonna cost the taxpayers there was no comment.

Date is set for Oct. 2014

Some kids don't need such pep talks. Some parents are crazy enough to teach them at home. Some parents are so crazy that they know where their kids are. I know, it's crazy! It's only a matter of time until Americans draw the line... One day...

I suggest any copper that got cajoled into performing at this latest Dog & Pony Show submit an Out Of Grade slip.

Write "Surrogate Parent" in the "remarks" portion of the slip.

Grade of pay commensurate with how many bastards that attended the town hall meeting live thru another Chicago summer in the ghetto.

Jim Rose used to be married to Cheryl Burton. So glad she dumped his sissy ass. Know her family. She was "raised right."

Unfortunately, people seem to think these kids are forward thinking when most don't think at all. They are not mischievous or naughty. They are downright criminal.

Again someone else has so raise/educate those kids. Useless fucking parents are the real problem. I hope they handed out condoms after the event to begin stopping this fucked up cycle.
Jim rose? Enough said.

maybe we should have a summit telling daddy how he should stay married to mommy.


There was an article in some Chicago liberal rag recently about the youth homicide rate. It blamed everyone but the killers.

Not one mention - and I looked - of not having a father. Not once.

These liberals sure know how to compartmentalize, I'll give them that.

scores of young men and women will die this summer from gun violence--- some will be intended targets and some will be in the wrong place at the wrong time--- peace marches and summits will not change this....

This is channel 7's initiative, not Rose's or Burton's. They did a big stop the violence push after Hadiya's death, on that ridiculous morning show they put on to replace Oprah.
There was some kind of 'audience input' thing, asking for suggestions on what the city wants to do to address the GUN violence problem in the city. Looks like this is the result of the response.
As for Burton, she's no genius. She's a pretty face who often forgets how to read the teleprompter. Nothing more. And Rose seems uncomfortable when he's forced into the position of representing his station in these dog and pony shows.

It's not that the streets are unsafe. It's that you "perceive" that the streets are unsafe.

I love Dickens. First Dickens was Great Expectations in sophomore high school. That was fantastic! For anyone who has never read Dickens, go get Great Expectations.

Good for MS.BURTON the only one with common sense.Rose should stick to sports {which he does rather badly}Beating up white tourist on the MAG MILE would have a response from the Bosses years ago, the gloves are off {or put on the saps and take care of buisness} I don't blame the troops ,I'm sure they would love too, but no balls at the top would have none of it.

Married? Daddy? Open your eyes. In certain areas of the city, the biological male contributor is a momentary visitor, gone and forgotten long before the birth of the conceived.

And his last name is a mystery to mama. His first name is often 'L'il Man' or 'Big Green' or 'Rock'. When you ask what's his real name, not his street name, mama looks at you all blank and surprised. "I dunno", is the response.
