Crime is Down!

Shout it from the rooftops! Someone prepare a press release!
  • Chicago police say crime in the city was down last month compared to statistics from the same time last year.

    In January, shootings were down 43 percent and murders were down 47 percent in Chicago.

    The Chicago Police Department says overall crime is down 34 percent compared to January 2013.
Meanwhile, there's 51 inches of "global climate change" on the ground, streets are still unplowed from the last storm, the south side is getting hammered with another batch of lake effect snow and we're waiting the third "polar vortex" of the new year already.

But hey media, keep releasing those stats spoon fed to you by the Department and City Hall. Has anyone totaled up the percentages of "crime is down" since McCompStat got here? We're almost positive that Chicago actually owes crime now, stretching into 2015.

You know they're desperate when they have to wait ten minutes for no shootings to take place and then come up with a "statistic" to show how crime is down.

Who do they think they're fooling? This is as comical as the old Soviet lies.

These goofs are too funny with their numbers manipulation. How stupid do they believe people are?

Well, I guess they're stupid enough to vote these clowns into office, so lying to them is what's expected.

Rahm & McLousySpouse must be fucking DESPERATE to claim the doings of Mother Nature as part of some brilliant crime fighting strategy they concocted.

The result of electing a tough on crime mayor, and being fortunate enough to have a tough on crime police superintendent steeped in the ways of the NYPD. They could not have done it without professionalism of the officers of the CPD.

And not word about the weather. Gee what is Mc Dummy going to do when it gets warm? If its all the CPPD now, will it be CPPD fault when it warms up and starts to climb?

SCC - We tallied 24 homicides and another 81 wounded. Not bad considering the shit weather. CPD is counting a few because they were either self-defense or reckless.

Also, the "crime is down" statement is so popular that it has spawned it's own Twitter hashtag, #crimeisdown, that many of us use anytime there's a homicide or shooting to mock the whole premise.

They never say how many were killed.

SCC may be the media forgets to ask.

If you would be so kind to add the actual number of PEEPS killed it would encourage the lame stream media to type those extra numbers.

Does Crime ever go up anymore?
any crime?

How many death investigation are pending?
To hard a question?

And Lance Armstrong said he never doped. A lie is a lie. If anyone calls him out on this, all he'll have to do is say he 'misspoke' or that they made a mistake in comparing the numbers.

In his defense, he did stand up several times at COMPSTAT and tell us the weather has no effect on crime. It must be his brilliance!

Liars figure and figures lie. There truly is one born every minute. The Bronx Ballsack is the new P.T. Barnum.

"Has anyone totalled up the percentages of "crime is down" since McCompStat got here?"

Very apt assessment that "Crime" is likely showing a negative balance on the ledger, SCC...

>The sound of crime reporting books being cooked<

Local Media Says:
O_o? o_o? o_O?
Huhwhohadsaidsump'n?

A very, very long ago algebra teacher in a place far, far away once said: "A constant (provable) rubbed against a bad variable (unprovable number that skews the results) yields a donkey-dung product."

The old algebra teacher was smarter than McCompStat and his merry band New Yuck law enforcement gypsies could ever be.

Their repeated propaganda blasts revolving around these donkey-dung numbers are a bald and naked illustration of the depths of depravity and venality to which these desperate less than men have sunk to...

Of the massive amount of donkey-dung flung against the wall, they feel it is no inconsiderable achievement if they manage to make some stick.

Of course they try to ignore the fact that they stink out loud of the stuff.

Pity that the way outnumbered & too few people left in Chicago who like to think for themselves are the only ones who seem to notice the straight up funk.

The New Yuck L.E. gypsies call it pandering to THEIR target audience.

Same as always in this ongoing drama...

"The Police are the problem... Once we fix THEM, everything else will fall in place..."

It helps when the homicide numbers are manipulated also. Example, female stabs dope dealer in 025 who choked her. He dies and it's classified as an Involuntary Manslaughter. Clearly a Second Degree homicide by UCR definition but those count on the stats and involuntary does not.

Does that mean Cpd officers get rewarded like In business? A bonus for a great job? A contract with nice raises? Pension funded? Lol! Of course not! Don't forget when the 4 top guys running to head our union ask the hard questions. For example where was the union when the pension was being defunded? Why did none of them speak out for the membership? The debate sorry just woke up the guys running would never debate each other to scared their lies would be exposed! This is a tough election do we vote for all new people ala Shields type or keep some experience? When the slate comes to talk giving out cheap pens and things with their names ask them what will they do as the smile and promise!

Ot. Kind of. It seems that compost stay was cancelled this week because gmac and his NY cadre left town to go to the Super Bowl. Not as official observers for terrorist activities but as VIP's. They were treated like royalty while teens are killing each other on the streets of Chi-Raq.

Where is the union logo on anything the citywide goofs are posting on the bulletin boards in the stations.

Clean slate has them as does on the Angelo people. Tommy says if he wins he will do an audit of the fop books. I wonder how Capparelli feels about that since he is the one writing all the lodge's checks for the that decade? Maybe we should ask how much we pay for garbage collection or how much we lose on the golf outing and picnics? How much did we spend on hockey and softballs teams over the last 12 years?

How many times do you have to be told... FOP didn't get the 4&2, Weis didn't give us the 4&2 - the city picked the 4&2 schedule because more elective time was taken by people on the 4&2 pilot schedule than the other schedules being tested. In fact, the FOP's original preference was for the 6&3 schedule.

Not a good argument and it doesnt make sense. Its better to ask those 20 this years than the 44 last year in Jan. There were 24 less homicides this Jan, be happy about that.

So you are saying the supt cant go to the Superbowl and has to stay in Chicago because some fools are killing each other in Chicago. I'm sure him staying in Chicago would have reduced homicides.

Saw Garry on the Ch 9 news touting the trend that been in effect since spring of 2012. Hey Garry how bout the trend that's been in effect since 2003 that shows homicides declining every year until you in your infinite wisdom disbanded TRU/MSF and other units only to have the homicide rate sky rocket. Now that its back to the trending rates its all on you the greatest police mind of the century, not to mention 400 guys working in the ghetto at time and a half keeping dude in check
