Nothing to See Here!



  • Mayor Rahm Emanuel gave a preliminary comment Thursday to a broad daylight mugging on Michigan Avenue this week.

    A 68-year-old woman says she was surrounded by a group of young men on the 700 block of North Michigan Avenue and ordered to hand over her jewels and her purse, which amounted to around $100,000.

    Emanuel told reporters Thursday that he wouldn't fully comment on the incident until he sees the police report, but he doesn't feel as if there's cause for alarm.

    "There are a lot of police, presence on Michigan Avenue and yes, people feel safe because I talk to people constantly who note how safe they are," Emanuel said.

Of course, Rahm talks to all these "people" from behind a wall of 22 armed security personnel or from his front porch where another half a dozen police cars guard the streets, sidewalks and alleys around his house, with a heavy weapons team less than 15 seconds away. That gives him a completely accurate picture of the situation downtown on a daily basis.

What an asshat.

=================================
who are these people that he talks to?

Every picture I see of Rahm on a train he's not talking to ANYONE. He has his nose stuck inside a newspaper to avoid contact with the city churls that just wouldn't be able to comprehend a man of his stature.

Delusional loon!

Rahm Emanuel shows signs of having been on psychotropic drugs from childhood!

What the FUCK is up with Chicago having crazy people as mayors?

You got one idiot wandering around with money spilling out of his pockets, mumbling about "pwetty twees an' flowers" and shitting himself while giggling about it and fishing around in his pants to retrieve before his security team runs up with the adult sized changing table on wheels...

The current idiot is about to tear himself in two because he is one unplanned and unscripted municipal crisis from seeing his carefully crafted message unraveling for all to see on the 10 o'clock news...

Just saw the replay of the Ch5 news...the old lady lied about her $100k loss, but an old man got knocked down the stairs of a cta stop and robbed of his wallet. Two women were robbed at knifepoint tonite, also, but the offender from that one is in custody. The story that followed this one was about Rahn's new arena and Navy Pier spending plan. What a joke.

Ugh...fucking channel 7 news has a commercial touting an interview with the old broad that got robbed....as the news starts the anchors say chicago police issue a statement, and video saying the entire event was false and made up. Channel 7 STILL runs the segment. Worst part of the whole fucking thing is I AM STILL not sure who to believe.....and I'm a cop. This fucking city....no one to trust

Nothing like downplaying the obvious. It' s just going to get worse and the high-paying tax payers are going to start voicing their opinions loudly soon. The aldermen who run those wards should be doing a hell of a lot more.

Police: Woman's report of Mag Mile robbery unfounded

Updated 10:58 p.m.
Chicago police have discredited a 68-year-old woman's claim that she was robbed of tens of thousands of dollars of jewelry during a brazen attack Wednesday afternoon along the Magnificent Mile.

But no one was lying about the man who got pushed down a set of stairs during a robbery on the CTA station near the federal building. There's still a lot of shit and animals downtown.

Just A Citizen says
This guy is such a piece of work. He must be a product of one of those open-minded (dangerous) families who believe in zero punishment, reasoning theories, applaud and "good boy!" every single thing the kid does while he stands there picking his butt and smelling his fingers? Or have one of those "My kid is special" bumper stickers? And now for a thought: Considering that his good friend Big O wiretapped journalists, do we need to temper our words here? Is hacking into your system next? Paranoia is not unfounded obviously.

If this so-called victim is bogus, charge her to the fullest extent of the law to include police man-hours expended. Otherwise, the CPD is opening up the floodgates for insurance scammers.

If she is NOT charged and knowing that this is Chicago, bribery/political connections by the victim is highly probable.

ANSWER: NO! What for? As long as there's one asshole to eventually send to the call to handle it, that's all we need. And we're the one asshole. That's how the administrators look at it. This is the "strategy" that many police departments are going to now. Hey- it looks good on paper, and keeps these asshole chiefs under budget, making them look good, despite their many shortcomings (being drunk often, beating their wives, shooting at streetlights, etc.).

Is she getting charged with filing a false police report is the question? Or will they blow it of because she is 68 years old?

Yes, it is happening now. FTOs making 1.5 each day while training recruits in a northside district. I'm glad comments were negative to the FTO program because with my low seniority and becoming a new FTO I would have never been able to leave the old southside ghetto district. Thanks all you negative "-itches"!

Raccoon Eyes bought her off.

Even if not so, there are plenty of "Theft-$300 & Under" and the "Battery-Simple Hands/Fists" incorporated into the narrative GOCR's flying around.

Whatever.

Slightly O/T:

Scum-Times online is running an article about Rhambo might have to eat some nasty-assed crow ass first, fully intact, feathers and all regarding his big push to close schools so he can bust out CTU...

One unnamed source says Rahm is alienating The Catered to Constituents with his "fuck you - you don't matter to me" tough guy attitude.

Peep the lead pic with Flamin' Tutu standing behind Bennett while she's at the podium...

Rahm is looking like he's a micro-second from screwing himself into the floor and tearing his own ass in two with his bare hands...

As the old heads used to say... "Dat muddahfukkah need medicatin'!"

When this first came up, we wondered why nobody was rolling the film to show the alleged offenders?

>Move along! Nuttin' to see here!<

It actually happened and Rahm had it suppressed?

You think that maybe she was pressured to change her tune?

If the change in the story was on the up & up then roll the surveillance tape proving she's a liar...

Remember...

This is Chicago and the North Shore Shit-Ass is DESPERATE to keep the narrative "on message."

And since Rahm is so big on appearing ruthless and vindictive, where are the charges or GOCR for False Police Report?

No verifiable closing documentation = Bullshit on the part of Rahm/City Hall somewhere in the game...
