Steady Numbers
A typical May weekend:
- Five people have been killed and at least 14 others wounded — including a 12-year-old boy left in critical condition — in shootings around the city since Friday night.
- About 9:15 p.m. Saturday, a shooter or shooters opened fire at a group of people at Ryan Harris Memorial Park in the 6800 block of South Lowe in the Englewood neighborhood. Shaneda Lawrence, 30, of the 9600 block of South Peoria, was shot in the head and pronounced dead at 12:46 a.m. at Stroger Hospital. A woman in her 20s was shot in the wrist, and a 24-year-old man was shot in the back.
A park named for a 1998 victim of a brutal crime is itself the scene of a triple shooting. IF that just doesn't define the misery and hopelessness of Englewood, we don't know what does.

Yeah, and put PO's on foot patrol there, so they can also be shot in the head. The Wood is lost and the Democrat's continue to allow the social experiment.
Solution. Cut off the LINK, WIC, and Section 8. At that time everyone whould be too busy working to be out at midnight whooping it up.

Here's a term that accurately describes exactly everything you just mentioned:
Liberal/Progressive Policies in action
Does this mean Leo won't be a deputy of a district anymore?
Stand firm...
and await orders from that Gold Star Bosshole Clout Monkey that goes by the moniker of "Rick Flair".
He'll make it all better.
And then he'll get promoted (AGAIN) for his efforts.
The Chicago way, compliments of the Piotrowski Family.
Yeah Leo, we know the score. And soon so will everyone else.
According to Channel 7 news the person killed is a cousin of Harris's mother.
OT... PPO'S fresh off their cycles took the streets on foot patrol on 1112's beat in 11 for first time tonight. Going to be a long summer for these recruits, good luck stay safe!!
Even crazier, SCC???
Turns out that Shaneda Lawrence is a cousin of Ryan Harris.
Initial reports are that the shooting was random.
Tragic.
Chicago. Welcome to the jungle.
Its sad to think Englewood was once a nice place to live. Then came the great migration and blockbusting in the 60s which is the real reason why Englewood is what it is today. Sad.
Oh boy. 13 homicides last week now puts 2013 solidly ahead of 2011 - 123 vs 115. Plus a number of those shot in the past week were listed in "grave" condition.
The Tiny Dancer and McGunControl surge seems to be losing steam.
How much money has been spent in overtime, etc... ?

There was a time when the rules were simple: If you don't work, then you don't eat.
Another burned to death in Logan Square in a dumpster but they are not classifying as homicide. McCathy says he self combusted.
And nope weather had nothing to do with it
"misery and hopelessness"? That Schmitz is the district commander. Oh sure, that fraud McFootball made him a deputy chief, but Leo still can't be trusted to do anything more than be a district commander. How many real deputy chief's opening have there been since Leo became special? Several.
Didn't the park close at 11:00pm?
Just saying.
Wounded! no big deal.
Its better than saying a person was shot and left a paraplegic and will live a long time on tax defer ed care.
It aint wilding its kids blocking the street.
And of course knocking officer down clumsy i guess.
Still No offender to hospital.
I hope officer carry baton on the MAG mile.
..its now Harris, Lawrence park..
They just don't like each other.

He'll be a district 1/2 deputy superintendent next.
From the Chi Park Dist website re: Ryan Harris Memorial Park
Description" ~~snip~~ "Ryan Harris Memorial Park is an idyllic location for families to spend a portion of their day relaxing and enjoying the outdoors and nature. This park contains a playground with swings, slides, along with climbing apparatus. With an open green space, park patrons that visit this park participate in baseball, softball and picnics."
Well golly gee-whiz! That Park sounds *almost* as nice as Disney World! At the least, it's on par with Branson Missouri as far as 'Family Entertainment' goes. Not to mention a whole lot more exciting, or if you wish, just; 'being one with nature'. It even sounds better than that 'Maggie Daley Memorial Park & Daley Family Homage Gift Shop' place near the lake shore.
Heck, Ryan Harris Memorial Park sounds sooooooo good I think I'll take the entire family there (ten of us) for the Memorial Day weekend! I'm sure I can find a nice Motel in the neighborhood.
/sarcasm OFF ;-)
In past years, many of the reverends always encougaged the people of the hood to ignore "the white mans law"
We'll they got what they wanted.
scratch up some contact cards that ought to help solve the murder there
I would be willing to bet the ignorant, dred wearing gangbanging aholes dont even know or care who Ryan Harris was.
i thought the triple shooting happened on the block of 1200 s kolin in the 010 district saturday night.
the city should use more caution when naming a park. ryan harris' "cousins" are black disciples and that park is theirs and nobody else is allowed to use it.
They need to nuke Englewood and start over, of course they say cockroaches can survive a nuke blast, so I doubt that would do anything.
Hey off topic but if you REALLY want to make your blood boil got to Facebook page "justice for Maximus". It's regarding off duty that shoot hood rat's dog. Enjoy section 8.
OT:
New foot patrols were added to 008, 011, 015
They have been in 006,003 for about 2 months now.
Yeah, and put PO's on foot patrol there, so they can also be shot in the head. The Wood is lost and the Democrat's continue to allow the social experiment.

Y-E-A-H R-I-G-H-T!!! They can't cut it off. Link money comes from USDA. Big time farmers and grocery stores will not be happy if the government cut programs that provide them revenue. Stop thinking its about helping the poor. They need poor people to justify keeping the programs alive. If you don't see the big contracts, private donations, and social service academic programs at UIC and University of Chicago behind these programs...well look for it. Giving poor people stuff is an industry too. Just like any other industry you need to show why you need to expand your mission and funding etc. There are some real hardworking and struggling people that need these benefits. We were on food stamps before my dad became a cop and while my mom did her social work in Lawndale (with a college degree). The problem is there are many more people who don't deserve it that they welcome into the program to justify keeping the ball rolling. Ironically, the people who really should get it get screwed a lot more as well.
Off topic.... Gang enforcement is finished. They will have the option to become part of a new citywide tru/msf like unit or be sent back to a district. Gmac is going to sell this as not another citywide unit but as an already citywide unit who has a changed mission with higher visibility(uniform) and a more focused and proactive approach to certain areas in the city. This way gmac can stick to his original story of more bodies in patrol and no more ultra aggressive units don't need to be made... It's the "same unit just a changed look and new mission to be more effective with the cities needs". All units will be consolidated to start at homan square in what is now the gang enforcement office. Kevin ryan(former commander of tru will still be the boss. Allegedly this was his plan and McCarthy liked it. Huge objections from Leo Schmitz since gang enforcement was his baby with JFed. One thing that wasn't brought up though was when its going to happed. I can't see them doing mid summer so it's either going to be soon or after summer. Fact or fiction ??? Usually I dontnbelieve this type of stuff but I heard it from a pretty straight guy who works in admin in organized crime so it sounds very legit to me

Hmmm, wasn't there a topic last month about some type of unit possibly being formed and was still in the planning phase? Maybe this is the concept they came up with.. I have not heard the specific gang enforcement rumor but who knows... Sounds very possible
Stand firm...

Hmmm you post all of these accusations and stuff but sign your name as inside do nothing west side dog... Yeah, no I know why u don't like him... Most dogs hate good bosses. I have worked for Leo out west in gangs and in 007. He's a decent guy... He's nuts, but a good boss
That Ryan Harris Park is part of the VRI and there is always a car assigned there during the day and evening hours. There must have been a lot paper that had to be written on that homocide.
how do you fix a problem...when you re the problem?

Not confirmed by any means but I did hear this very same "rumor" a day or two ago from a guy who works in special functions or whatever the heck they call it these days...

It's about time. Kudos to Gmac.
I find crime to be very scary. Anyone else?

Get off Leo's nuts, loser. Original poster is right. But then again you'd have to have more than a minute on the job and be a non-Koolade drinker.
Now go write some parking tickets for the boss, Company Man.
Asshat.
It's about time. Kudos to Gmac.

Kevin Ryan does not and has never had a 'plan" or a thought about anyone except himself and Steve Georgas (the man who pulls his strings)---but kudos to Kevin for picking the right boy to sell your soul to and bottom feed off

Five percent of gang enforcement does 95 percent of the work. The rest are just along for the ride. If they downsized by two thirds, no one would notice.
Does this mean Leo won't be a deputy of a district anymore?
5/20/2013 12:12:00 AM
Since the fire department has taken up residence in our building on 35th, in order to make CPD and CFD ranks more parallel, he'll be a....deputy district chief !!
How about cutting narcotics by 95 percent. Those one bag arrests are
a total waste of time.
The Unit only needs one Lt to run it with 3 Sgt'. Take home cars taken away and the numerious assigned there can man 4 disricts.
Put all of them on foot for the summer. Give the beat people a break already. O'Grady is not capable of running the linen department at Motel 6.
The gang enforcement rumor is false. Just confirmed that with a person would know.. So relax everyone
