CompStat Media
- One day after Mayor Rahm Emanuel decried the rash of shootings over the Easter holiday weekend, eight people were shot across the city in less than seven hours.
The ages of the victims — one teenager and seven men — ranged from 14 to 56.
Pretty soon, the media will be comparing this seven-hour stretch to other seven-hour stretches to come up with percentages that crime is up or down compared to the another seven-hour stretch from seven hours ago.
The weekly numbers have got to be pretty ugly, too. Sure we're getting 40 shot per weekend, but the numbers for Monday through Friday have got to be nearly as bad. Perhaps the guys over at HeyJackass.com can toss up some Sunday through Saturday numbers? We're going to bet it's between 60 and 80 people shot per week - call it 70 for the over/under.
Does that sound like "crime is down"? We don't have anything to compare it to, but 70 shot in a week sounds like a city out of control.

shhhhhhh, first rule of compstat is we dont talk about the numbers if they are "ugly" or bad. carry on, silently please. thx, love GMAC
Maybe you can add this to the rules column Scc? But how about no whining or complaining about the St Jude march. If you don't wanna go don't. If you do go you are appreciated by the family members of the deceased that are in attendance. So either go or keep your mouth shut be a crybaby and dont.
Order just came out. All tac teams will have their days off cancelled this summer. Every Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday you can kiss goodbye. Tac ain't looking good anymore

Time in a half suck it cha Ching cha Ching ...
Rick flare "woooooooooooooooo" suck it
Has anybody brought up the idea of lateral transfers for CPD.A Chicago Officer can lateral into a suburban department why can't a suburban cop lateral into CPD? A few weeks in the academy to learn paper and general orders.The officer must move into the city before probation is over.Just an idea!
As the whether "crime is down" all depends on what the definition of "down" is.
Snap Crackle and Pop. The daily breakfast of Chicago. I like it!
Nonsense. Rahm says we're safe and his drunk top cop spits out numbers to support it.
What's not to believe?
Do we all agree that these shootings have to stop?
Before any "solution" is decided, we need to know if EVERYONE really wants to put an end to this once and for all.
There ARE crime-with-a-gun laws - ENFORCE THEM.
Stop "looking the other way" with light sentences handed out in court.
Stop ALL welfare and entitlement money to anyone involved in a crime or supporting anyone in a crime.
As far as Rahm's image for higher office? That has been blurred and tainted already, but if this continues, that image will be totally wiped out - quickly.
Next case.
OT: Is Chicago's vast camera array any better?
Jet stowaway at hospital as security issues linger
HONOLULU (AP) -- Surveillance cameras at San Jose International Airport successfully recorded the teenager on the tarmac, climbing up the landing gear of a jet. But in the end, the cameras failed because no one noticed the security breach until the plane — and the boy — landed in Hawaii hours later.
Although the 15-year-old apparently wanted nothing more than to run away, his success in slipping past layers of security early Sunday morning made it clear that a determined person can still get into a supposedly safe area and sneak onto a plane.
Video surveillance can help catch trespassers. Some airports use not just human eyes watching video screens, but also technology that can be programmed to sound an alert when a camera captures something potentially suspicious. But just because something is caught on camera does not mean it will make an impression.
Despite great promise, "sometimes the actual results are quite underwhelming when it gets to the real world, where people are fatigued, people are preoccupied," said Richard Bloom, an airport security expert at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in Arizona. "There's no way to guarantee security, even if you had one person per video screen."

Of course crime is down! If everyone is shot to death no one can commit crimes!
ChiRaq You're safer in Baghdad
Thanks RhamBo
Just an idea. Hire more cops?
Can we please get the Nationl Guard?
In other news....McCarthy announced that there were not any calls to 911 between 3:22 and 3:26pm Sunday making this the safest 4minutes in Chicago since 1934
its just an increase in the decrease
Seems that concealed carry is working, not.
Rahm and Garry are flat out liars. Crime is not down. Population and reporting is down. Anyone who lives in the city, no matter what neighborhood, will tell you crime is NOT down.
I believe the people more than city hall crooks.
I'll take the over, every time. I'll have enough for a gun and CC permit in no time.
This city is safe as long as you are thirteen and under or fifty seven and older.
Crime is down ...... He said crime is down ....... Why won't anyone listen? Crime is down
Either hire more police or increase VRI before the summer and the end of the school year is here.
FOP it's time
If we can move a lot of the poor into Section 8 housing in upper middle class and upper class neighborhoods we would not have these problems. The poor and disadvantaged would not feel discriminated against and would behave themselves better.
Was it me or does anybody else notice the physical change in McGarry? Saw him on channel 7 last night and he looked overweight and a lot more gray hairs. Not so easy is it supt?!
I hope this doesn't affect the $100 million air conditioner deal, or the & $5 million BD of ED furniture purchase, $95 million bridge, or heaven forbid, the $100 shrine to Obama.
As long as this spending goes on, what's a " few " shootings/homicides....oops! I mean death investigations to be concerned about?
FORWARD!

This week to date: 4 killed, 29 wounded.
Last week (Sun - Sat): 8 killed, 41 wounded.

Don't worry though the airports we being stocked with coppers every month look up all the crime oh myy! Swat also training will get new OT incentive at airports wonder if something is in the wind? Went to 1 day terror training a near north good class lots of tips if u have chance very informative! But now it's voluntary guess the boss did not have the power to keep it mandatory!
read this months issue of Chicago magazine & read about the CPD & reporting crime numbers
Great read regarding the numbers game- Truth About Chicago Crime Rates
http://www.chicagomag.com/Chicago-Magazine/May-2014/Chicago-crime-rates/
Rahm must be feeding these revs, preachers, organizers etc. lots of money to keep them from demanding McCarthy's resignation! Usually he would already be gone after this latest massacre but money in Pfleger's pockets keeps them marching on!
OT: Speaking of a "city out of control", WTF is up with these unannounced speed cameras popping up all over the place, without even having the statutory warning signs? I just saw yet another one on Central near Berteau in 016. No signs, no nothing. It's obviously all about generating revenue, and nothing about safety.
Well I, am sure this problem is solved! The Mayor stated on T.V.he has had enough! Ghetto Rats beware....
The city has decided to 'utilize' the tact teams on their days off in various 'impact' zones through out the city on their rdos starting May1st. Apparently downtown thought this was a way to fill those hot spots without opening up too much Vri. Downtown said that the tact teams would be more proactive than the people who were gobbling up all the VRI dates. So this is their way of skirting the system and not using senority while filling those VRI boxes. Little do they know that with all the other usual crap they make tact teams do, they will be seeing several grievances from officers who have both rdos cancelled
Order just came out. All tac teams will have their days off cancelled this summer. Every Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday you can kiss goodbye. Tac ain't looking good anymore

No way can they cancel all your do's for the summer. Pure BS, what are they going to work 90 days straight. If such an order exists post it.

The alternative to manipulating shootings over a time period would be to produce numbers by location.
Like the shooting in this neighborhood or block where we put all the fixed posts are down....as the rest of the city goes to hell.
The administrations numbers are bullshit from the word go and everyone knows it that has half a brain.
We see it in the crime stats and time and again on revenue scams and schemes that have fallen short over and over and over....and over.
The good ol' days of the fearless leaders controlling the talking points are history.
Not trying to beat a dead horse, but without the level one trauma centers, the number killed would probably be well over 1000 a year. Violence has actually increased exponentially since 1958. Naples Fla. is looking real good. PS. I've been seeing quite a few of you guys flying back and forth on Spirit.
Now Susie is going after everything hey Susie your office duplicates revenue why not resign and merge offices?

we ain't got time for that.
Gotta legitimize and secure proceeds from the pension money that was stolen.
My understanding is Mcstreetlight has hired the sesame Count to count stats for him. He likes him because he is slow so will be lagging behind in numbers. 1, 1 shot person HaHaHa. 2, 2 shot people HaHaHa.
The purpose of the corporate/political partnership media is to ridicule, discredit and isolate opposing views as "wacky conspiracy theories".
See, no-one thinks like that only you.
Try using the phrase "conjuring up images" in your speech's.
The word conjure in itself elicits images of ghosts and goblins and witchcraft hocus-pocus.
It's about creating "group think".
USE OF peer pressure from a group will get you in line with the talking points.
When that fails just call the troublemakers racists.
See?
Choice of words is important.
If we were told that the U.S Constitution was a rambling manifesto would any-one read it?
Most people have a switch in their brain whereas those words are interpreted as crazy conspiracy theory stuff and therefore a waste of our time.
If the media doesn't want you to read something because reading it may make you think differently from the main stream powers that be -- those are the type of phrases they will use.
So that said. we should want to read what they are talking about even more instead of blowing it off.
Someone likely fears the message contained within.
Like when certain people talk about crime and "conjuring up images" as though the real images of blood death and mayhem are not real they are illusions.
37 wounded, 40 wounded... stop it, stop conjuring up those images. Look at these giant puppets we're bringing here instead. Oh man look at the size of those things..hahaha...don't look at the wounded, the dead. Look at the puppets and stop reading that manifesto.

Either I'm a moron for not recognizing this as satire or the person that wrote the above post is more than your average moron.
Anybody heard about a impending self destruction already afoot over at the Lodge? Heard the new crew has fallen victim to some of the worst of the worst FOP hanger oners. What's the word?
Georgia governor just signed guns everywhere law. The second amendment movement keeps on rolling... Go Republicans.
“America today cherishes this second amendment right, so that people who follow the rules can protect themselves and their families from those who don't follow the rules" says GA governor Nathan Deal.
Little do they know that with all the other usual crap they make tact teams do, they will be seeing several grievances from officers who have both rdos cancelled
They won't be cancelling both days off, and it's not every weekend, so shut your yap!
Let's go Hawks!
Had one this morning before 7am. 78th and Ingleside shot in the head dead on the scene is when he was found. Not sure when he was shot.

It's actually not been beaten enough. These trauma centers and revised medical procedures in general deserve a lot of credit for keeping the murders down. People are taking straight head shots and walking out the hospital like its a foot wound. of course you can't forget all the foot wounds either now.
OT: I was reading a old tribune article from August of I believe '92. 1992 being one of the most deadliest years in Chicago history I was surprised to read the toll for the deadliest weekend so far that month in a month that saw well over a hundred murders. The final body count for that weekend? 9 dead, and if I remember correctly, about 50 wounded. NOTHING HAS CHANGED!
On Tac on was Told all Rdo's that fall on Friday,Saturday,Sunday and Monday are cancelled..If rdo falls on tues weds thurs we rdo still. From May-Sept..
Either hire more police or increase VRI before the summer and the end of the school year is here.
FOP it's time.

You Fukin clown, FOP would have more leverage if u goofs didn't work for that blood money and circumvent hiring more police.

Sounds like a great idea. Why don't you give your address and we will see if this works.

This issue has been brought up several times by the union and others.
They pointed out it would save money and get experianced officers on the street much sooner. Since the idea saves money and comes from peons, they ignored it
Lets face it rham and garry can't do the job we need someone else rather than a gibbs me dat politician and an east coast drunk to get thing done.Airports need qualified heavy weapons guy's something is in the wind the bad guy's love airplanes to create problems lots of training needed for that type of work.
