Misplaced Priorities
- Chicago’s top cop says tougher gun laws would save lives in Chicago, including those of gang bangers.
Standing before some of the more than 4,000 guns seized by Chicago Police this year, Superintendent Garry McCarthy outlined four cases where men picked up for unlawful use of a weapon later became victims.
“A 21-year-old man was shot on July 23, was convicted of aggravated UUW in September of 2012. He was given six months of probation,” said McCarthy.
McCarthy says too many illegal guns and not enough truth in sentencing means more violence in Chicago so he wants state lawmakers to pass tougher laws.
While we're all in favor of more prison time for those who violate the laws, especially violent felons using illegal weapons, let us just be among the first to say, "who really cares if a gang banger gets killed by another gang banger?" If he gets out from whatever sentence he serves and manages to get killed shortly thereafter, we really don't give a rat's ass. Good riddance to bad rubbish. We'd be more worried about....oh, we don't know....a four-year-old getting her stomach and intestines scrambled by a stray bullet than someone who is and will be nothing but a drain on society for the next couple of decades.

Garry's logic.
If you're on probation you're not allowed to carry -- see? Therefor unarmed citizens become victims?
This is why the snitches get stitches code of silence works so well.
Anyways with Obama care about to kick in and Rahm so hard-up for more money I'd not be surprised if he started handing out guns to get some of that Fed Obama care cash ya know?
Trickle down economics. As the blood trickles down the cash registers ring, the campaign donations roll in.
150 shootings per month, man oh man. Look at the money! Look at it!
/sarcasm
Once again.
" Shuck'n and Jive'n" to the black constituency.
And who are the majority of
"exuberant youfs?
well blacks of course.the mary Shepard lawsuit was thrown out by judge stiele for a reason. ( shows you how " non- partisan he is)it would have made the aldercreatures " pets" open season and Lost Weekend" knows it
They can get rid of the whole Skokie court building or make some very drastic changes! 99% of that building would rather put a shithead back on the street then lock him up! Thank you Judge Sullivan, useless!
Hold Judges and ASA's accountable! Let let get sued like us!
Was he ssober when said that ?????
Ok, your right, what difference does it make....
THE CRIMINAL DISOBEYS LAWS !
So to keep criminals from shooting each other all this asshole can come up with is.......more laws.
Brilliant !!!
Yet another confused person in a position of power based on bullshit politics.
Truth in sentencing has nothing to do with more gun laws. It has everything to do with enforcing current gun laws.
The democrats can't vote from inside prison I suppose.
Is crime still down? As of this posting we are at 52 murders for the month of July while last year it was 49 for the end of the month.....shootings might be down though lol
Does this asshole even bother to sober up now before he does his weekly comedy routine for the Chi MSM presstitutes? I think not.

Jody got a vote of no confidence and this drunken, woman beating idiot gets a pass?
Concealed carry is a good thing. It will help reduce crime and make me look good.

Everything these laws have "outlawed/controlled" has just made the prices rise on the black market and increased violence ie. alcohol/prohibition, drugs.......They should be careful what they ask for.......only criminals will have guns!
Gun control is no solution to the problems in the black community.
Just ignore him and he'll go away soon enough. Getting all bent out of shape about his ramblings only feeds his massive ego and reinforces his feeling that somebody actually gives a shit about his opinions.
Garry should go back east. He and Weiner would make quite the pair, no?
Don't nobody tell them there's no room in the jail. The state has closed prisons. The do-goods support prisoner rights to proper space.
Speaking of misplaced priorities, I was outraged and ashamed that I was a former Teamster when I saw them protesting at Farina's wake on Belmont. There is a place and time for everything and this was neither. I would hope our brothers and sisters remember this when a high ranking Teamster official gets stopped for a traffic infraction. I for one threw any bit of respect I had for them out the window yesterday. Any courtesy they may have gotten went out with the respect as well.
The gang bangers support and vote Democratic politicians.
Next question?
The Amish and Norwegians moved their prostitution operation to Naperville.
Whatever happened to the $10g reward for the info of shooting at a Cop ? NYC has had this program for a long time and they say it has worked well. You get the money if the shooter is caught and convicted.
He's just towing the company line for his puppet master Rahm.
anyone know about this one?
-Social media and tenacious Chicago cops who refused to give up on seemingly questionable 911 calls are credited with rescuing a woman who was sexually assaulted in an apartment near Clark and Diversey this morning.
The first call to Chicago emergency personnel came around 4:00AM from a man in Seattle who said the victim sent a Tweet in which she gave her address and said that a man robbed her of her phone. Officers arrived at the Hampden Court apartment building, but could not find the woman's name on the directory. Dispatchers called the man in Seattle and learned that he did not know the woman personally and that he was just passing along what he saw on Twitter.
Moments later, a series of 911 calls were received from the woman's Facebook friends who reported that she had posted a worrisome status update about a dispute with her boyfriend. The Facebook friends were able to give police the woman's correct name and officers on-scene "woke up half of the building" in an effort to get buzzed in.
Once inside the apartment, police discovered that the woman had been sexually assaulted by a man, presumably the woman's boyfriend, who had taken her phone in an effort to keep her from calling for help. The brave victim found another way to communicate: a computer.
The assailant is in police custody and the woman is being treated at Illinois Masonic Medical Center.
The Chicago Police Department's Violent Crimes unit is currently at the crime scene.

Lets not forget all the politically connected felons that our law&order govenor gives pardons to.
Well put and simply fact. Good guys don't pull their weapon unless their life is in immediate danger..

Actually all murders do affect us. They provide bad publicity for the city, uses more city and medical services, medical costs, court costs, demise of neighborhoods, etc. SCC has a strong point of view, but there are also other angles you must look at. I don't use hair gel.
I think we all have grown sick and tired of the poor, terrible and incompetent leadership with our elected current mayor and our appointed police supt. This city is lost, broke and corrupt. The morale with the troops on the street continues to be at an all time low. I love being the police but just hate working for this department because of what it has become and how its ran or should I say, how its not run.
Six months probation for UUW? Thats nothing. Pass more laws that the honest citizens follow and the criminals arent held accountable for.
How about if a FOID holder gets a UUW? Jail time or financial ruin I bet.
More smoke and mirrors. Anita will get some prison time for a couple of these UUW offenders and say, "look, we are addressing the problem." And then it will be back to business as usual w probation being the norm.
Gotta get those convictions. Thats all that matters to them.
Mcbushmills wants to waste his time and OUR resources warning shitheads they're potential homicide victims, why does this surprise you?
It's called politics and sales! If you want something you have to feed somebody what they want. So while I agree I could care less about bangers this way of putting this lets the the idiots who do care about bangers consider tougher gun laws. And we all know we have a lot of people in Chicago who love making victims of bangers. Honestly this is a good way of getting these people, some won't a lot of power, to back this.
OT, has anybody had any experience with John Arena regarding financial planning for retirees? Any feedback would be appreciated, thanks.
Off Topic---But a hearty GFY to Rahm after receiving my current water bill that is more than the last one, much more than the previous one to that and about double than the ones just a few years ago.
I hope you choke on this extortion.
That coupled along with the tax increases to pay for your other bullshit are breaking us--do we honestly need more flower boxes in the middle of main streets? (2000-2300 Lawrence for example)
You play hardball with us over our pay, imnsinuating that we are greedy and lazy, but we need the pay raises to pay the extra expenses that you and your cabal in the City Council have foisted upon the people who actually pay the bills in this town.
My elderly neighbors, both retired CPD, are petrified that they won't be able to live with the tax increases and the city fee increases that you shoved up the collective asses of the true taxpayers in this city.
On a more personal note--I'm going to have to tell my kids that the family vacation we planned is going to be shorted and maybe hockey and football might be cut.
I am still astounded that a man who's only formal education is a BA in Communications has risen to such heights, including a seat on the Fannie Mae board that netted you about $12,000,000 even though you have no formal banking or investment training or experiance.
I guess getting Bill Clinton his coffee while you worked in his White House got you such experiance.
Should have heard poor rahmFather complaining in the radio about traffic being blocked downtown at noon.
Sorry Car 1 it's lunchtime!
OT: A job well done to the men and women in blue, as well as cfd, who were present this morning in a final salute to (Ret) Sgt. John "Flash" McNamara. Those there made him and his family proud. Way to make a fitting sendoff to one of Chicago's finest, a great man, and one hell of a character.
ot>gov scott walker of wisconsin is now open to limiting collective bargaining rights of the states police and fire unions,is this in our future as well?
I know I go to work I really hope I can save a white devil, police hating, poison selling, child killing gangbanger! How about you?
OT. I would like to thank all the people who came to services for retired Sgt John "Flash" McNamara over the last two days. It was a reminder of the goodness in people's hearts and how many great people are on this job. A very classy send off for a great man!
A friend of John
So can I carry a gun yet or no ?
Tougher laws (passed by the ILGA), and tougher judges and tougher ccsa's. What McDrunk and Rahm don't say is that all of the above (and enough of the ILGA to get what they want from the state) are approved and slated cook county democratic party members, it's their own people doing this. If they really wanted this, It would ALREADY be done.

Have to agree with you. They have a right to strike, but look what they turned down 9% over 2 years, 6% the first year. Below is from an article on the strike
The union walked out July 1 seeking better wages and benefits, after failing to secure a 3 percent wage increase per year for five years and a $1,100 monthly pension plan.
Teamsters turned down SCI's offer of a 9 percent wage increase over two years -- 6 percent in the first year and 3 percent the next.
uses more city and medical services, medical costs,
Nope if a mutt gets shotted in the head and dies on the spot, not many medical resources get used. It gets expensive when the EMT's speed his unworthy ass to the hospital and several hundred thousand tax dollars are wasted patching him up, only so he can repeat the same scenario.
Do respond to all in progress calls as quick as you can without endangering yourself or other citizens . Request Ambulance and give 1st aide to victim , protect crime scene , make proper notifications and write a report .
No proactive policing , it could make problems for you or your partner , suspensions , loss of job , pension . Be careful , go home safe to your family . Many people do not have our backs when the s--t hits the fan . Back each other up all the time traffic stops , street stops , domestics and in progress calls .
Go back to fucking new jersey or wherever you came from stay the fuck away from Chicago.

That's the only reason your embaresed to be a former teamster?

looks like a gang sign to me with her left hand..still ghettofied
Damn right ought to sue the judges! Cops/CPD get sued for total BS. Of course, the real sue-ee should be 9.5 aka Swan Lake - asshole.

You need hair to use hair gel. The city is beyond hope for a good reputation. Certain neighborhoods are still solid. Most crime is restricted to the south and west side. The only angle is hiring new officers and our pension. I hear olive oil is good when you are bald.
4000 guns this year, that about 20 guns a day. Are there that many guns being taken in each day?

Lift the residency requirement
“A 21-year-old man was shot on July 23, was convicted of aggravated UUW in September of 2012. He was given six months of probation,” said McCarthy. he also said later in a conversation that it was not this offenders 1st arrest
If you comprehend his statement , he has completely agreed with statement made by other groups. Its not the police, its the courts and prosecution that's at fault!
Hypocrisy at its best

I think of shit like that every time I read of some CPD officer FOP hater wish we were represented by Teamsters. We voted the Teamsters down twice. Not by accident either.
Two things 1st chicago has a 1.5 billion dollar surpluss uncommitted TIF funds....Secondly Rahm got his 16 million being the arm twister in DC for a New York cap and trade investment firm. Rahm has a degree in dance and a masters in communications...speaking while his mouth is filled what a tool. google Rahm th millionaire. The article states he wasnt a numbers guy, had no expeirence in cap and trade (carbons released into the air.)Rember Al Gore Global warming, Clintons idea to have corps. in the global community pay for their manufacturing emissions. Barry was puhing it his first year and its all seemed to fade away. Yes Rahm you carpet bagging POS GFY.............
If Garry says crime is down ,then it is,right?
Does anyone pay attention to him anymore?

And they have not achieved any reduction in overall gun crime or violent crime. Why? Be cause they target the wrong people.
4000 guns this year, that about 20 guns a day. Are there that many guns being taken in each day?
Thats resonable. Think about it, less than one gun a day per district and thats not counting special units Plus all it takes is that one seizure or arrest of say 20 or 30 guns
time for rahm to start givivg all the illegals cab fare and section 8 voucher to winitka , highland park , lake forest , etc
This should be in a newer story, but I just gotta. Tired of Wussies running the show? Tire of Counsels with 'bangers?
Here's a real chief of Police, Mark Kessler of the Gilberton Pa.
Bought and donated to the Department a couple of full auto weapons, and demonstrated them in a rant against liberalism. I don't know how to send the youtube, but check it out. There were no streetlights shot out during his display.

So, he can be disrespectful of elected leaders,but wants others to respect him and his officers. He's a stroke!!! He is a government employee!! Idiot!
A Gun cannot be Illegal OR Legal, it is an inatimate object. Only the person possessing it can be illegal or legal, as legality only applies to Laws which only Humans can choose to obey or disobey, and their behavior governed by.
