Another Tourist Not Coming Back

Not sure how many more hits the tourist industry is willing to absorb, but here's another:
  • Three Cincinnati women riding a rented bicycle on North Avenue Beach were confronted Saturday afternoon by a group of teens, one of whom is accused of stealing one woman's iPhone, police said.
    Keith B. Clough, 17, of the 9300 block of South Perry Avenue, was charged late Sunday night with one count of felony robbery, according to police.

    A judge set bail at $60,000 today for Clough, according to the Cook County sheriff's office. He is scheduled to appear in court next on Aug. 16, according to the sheriff's office.

    The women, 25, 26 and 27, were enjoying a "chariot" bicycle ride when a group of male and female teenagers jumped onto the bike and refused to get off, police said.

    The teens began harassing the women and "took turns" jumping onto the chariot cycle, according to a police report. At one point, one of the teens molested one of the women, the report said.
And wonder of wonders, guess what the descriptions of the other offenders are?
  • The others in the group fled the scene and were not arrested, police said. Police did not release descriptions of the teens in the group.
No descriptions of a bunch of thieves and a criminal sexual abuser. How very nice. And we're just sure that the victims are going to want to stick around for the next hearing this Friday, and any continuances granted by the courts. How long until Anita's crew drops this one?

The city is dead. Word about this kind of activity spreads pretty quick and tourist will stay out of Chicago. Democrat vampires are sucking the last blood out of this town and won't be satisfied till we become Detroit.

LOL, it is funny how the media always seems to neglect the race of the offenders when they are black. After 16 years of being a cop and living in this city I don't understand why they do that. It's not like you are putting a case on a black man. It is what it is. If a black guy commits a crime and there is proof-positive that he is the offender why not just tell it how it is? Can anyone please shine some light on this for me? I am not being dumb not sarcastic. The media had no problem drawing inferences with George Zimmerman and Trayvon Martin and the race issue. It's like they love to bring up race when the offender is white and the victim is black.

Where the hell are the 018 District on the weekends?

I've seen the 4 wheeler units and mounted from time to time...but if the district is going to throw 2 blue shirts and a white shirt on darn near every corner on the mag mile, didn't someone from the crystal ball unit consider the roaming Amish might fucking relocate?

I'm tempted to hang out on the beach on the weekends.

After 16 years of being a cop you don't understand the socialist concept of white privilege which leads to liberal white guilt? You don't understand that blacks feel that acting this way is somehow reparations for them? You don't get that race baiters who pose as clergy don't give a damn about crime, they just cash in on it? You don't understand that the media bends to the socialist politicians who need that black vote in order to keep stealing and bankrupting this city or that they will alter video and audio to suit their agenda as they did in the Zimmerman case? You don't get that decisions are made by the city on the color of your skin?

You need to open your eyes and stop trying to be supercop. Recognize who it is that you're working for here. You probably support your local democrat/socialist alderman and think he's an American who respects the Constitution. Except that he keeps creating laws that violate it and keep you living like you're in an Eastern Bloc commie country.

No more "handling" this situation with kid gloves. Chicago should become like Singapore. Bamboo caning - in public - of these idiots. Too barbaric? No, it works. It's a real deterrent.

Reverends don't like it? They can "step up" and take the punishment for their flock. Be a martyr. Yeah, like that would ever happen.

This is not just a Chicago media problem, but a nationwide problem. BLACK on white crime is just not reported for what it is.

But, imagine what would have happened if it was three white kids doing the kicking? I can't wait for All Sharpton to move into his 16th st apartment.

You really enjoy stirring up shit with our NYPD buddies, don't you? Your above "dissin'" comment is a flagrant LIE.

First post the LINK TO NYPD SEARCH, QUESTION AND FRISK (SQF) article in the NY Post Even if true, only one Bronx cop uses Chicago crime comparison. Furthermore, in context, nothing is disrespectful to the CPD rank-and-file.

Now check THEE [NYPD] RANT Re: SQF Decision. As of now, 71 comments and over 17,300 views with no mention of Chicago. Yes, Detroit is cited several times.

Shut up! We have more than enough problems without your ilk stirring up the pot.

It's universal in the media - movies, television, newspapers are in a perpetual mode of boosting black people. Just go to a movie, or turn on the TV. I have two theories - one, people in the media actually dislike blacks - the way they act and they way they look - and this spawns a tremendous amount of subconscious guilt which they try to atone for by constantly working for the benefit of blacks and their image. The other theory is that the people in power, the ones who control the media, have a vested interest in a weakened white society, and boosting blacks and denigrating whites is a way of pursuing it. Either way, it's not even done deliberately - it's automatic - it's reflexive.
