Never Fear! The Feebs Are Here!

  • Chicago’s “ingrained” gang culture is to blame for homicide rates far higher than other large U.S. cities, FBI Director James B. Comey said Monday.

    Speaking a day after one of the city’s warmest and bloodiest weekends so far this year, Comey said gang values went back decades in Chicago, but he warned “you can’t arrest your way to a healthier neighborhood.”
We'd like to see them try though - one of the problems is Illinois gives day-for-day credit in prison. 6-to-10 becomes 3-to-5 with startling regularity. That needs to end. Another is the inordinately amount of time from arrest-to-trial-to-imprisonment. What good is 10 years downstate if it's already going to be 5 and the first 2.5 are served in Cook Conty jail waiting? There's no "rehabilitation," all the old crew is in there with you, all the old contacts and influences. These are local problems, not really on the FBI radar and certainly not addressable by them.

The Director did make this observation:
  • Asked why Chicago has failed to cut homicide levels as successfully as New York and Los Angeles, Comey told reporters,“Chicago has a larger and more ingrained and sophisticated street gang structure than many American cities.”

    [...] “They’re old, they’re embedded in a part of the culture in this city, and it’s an enormous challenge,” Comey said.
"embedded"? In many cases, since the early 1900's in fact, the gangs are part and parcel of the political structure - and this is something that the FBI can and should address. Political corruption on a massive scale in Chicago, comparable only to New Orleans and parts of New Jersey. The gangs own numerous aldercreatures, even today. And in other cases, the aldercreatures obtain tax-breaks for Outfit chop-shops. Those are things that the FBI ought to be looking at to break the cycle of corruption. That's where they can make a difference.

Mistuh Big Bad Eff-Bee-Eye Man could've saved that bit of speechifying for the Stuttering Prick and that little prancing shit-ass on the fifth floor of city hall currently getting his financial freak on to the taxpayer's detriment.

How about some hot federal fire under the asses of Chicago's corporate sponsored criminal/political class and their media sycophants?

Oh shit... Wait... Sorry...
That doesn't square with the current narrative
of "Blame The Police."

"Well if you coppers would pipe down, give something back and did more with less, we would support you..."

Aye... Sell that crazy shit somewhere else... We got it up to the ceiling and spilling out the damned windows here...

Aha, entrenched gangs going back 100 year, part of the culture. It's those white Italians and Jewish types causing all the death and mayhem. It certainly is not our fine people of color, so quit blaming it on them. The FBI said so, and everyone knows the FBI is world's premier crime fighters, second to none. Well they have solved CPD's crime problem. All it took was calling in the world's experts and asking their advice.

Not to mention that the DOJ has run guns to the core of the gangs operation down in Mexico.

However, unlike Rahm going after gun manufactures by trying to have banks cut off financing there is dead silence when it comes to our own DOJ funding the cartels that run the street gangs

Don't go there BUDDY, you don't want to go there...right?

I know, I know. Racist!

No-no see. You stop the small crimes before they become big crimes that's what this Broken Windows crime fighting means.

let me show y'all how it's done.

[...]..Calls for police service stacked up like cordwood, waiting for officers to become available. In addition to the dedicated "entertainment detail," at least four of the district's 14 active beat cars were tied up on Clark Street, dealing with 25-year-old children.

A Chinese fire drill.
Even calls for help from some Clark Street bars didn't get police responses.

The district was down to its last available car as we begin....

1:05AM: Ambulance is rolling to Circuit nightclub, 3641 N. Halsted, for a battery victim who has cuts to his face. Assigned to "entertainment detail" unit 1967A.

1:05AM: 1967A says that, they are under direct orders to not leave Clark Street.

1:07AM: On Clark Street, a man is threatening employees at McDonald's across from Wrigley Field. 1967A is assigned.

1:07AM: Supervisor over-rules. In addition to not being able to leave Clark Street, 1967A cannot travel north of Addison Street. Reassign the call.

1:21AM: Still waiting for a car to become available for Circuit's battery victim. Oh, and McDonald's, too.

1:27AM: OK. Now it's a battery in progress over at that McDonald's

1:28AM: A car is assigned to McDonald's.

1:29AM: That car at McDonald's needs some help. There's a brawl.

1:30AM: Unit 1967A, finally allowed to venture 100 yards beyond Addison, goes to McDonald's.

1:31AM: Fight at McDonald's is breaking up.

1:38AM: Moe's Cantina wants to speak with the police. They previously called for help when several patrons began fighting. Dispatcher acknowledges that the original call "has time on it."

1:40AM: Disturbance at John Barleycorn.

1:50AM: Fake $20 bill passed at 7-Eleven on Sheffield near Wrigley. Case HX221673

1:52AM: Well, that battery victim from Circuit has been hauled away to Illinois Masonic. Now Circuit wants help because they're holding the two people who beat the guy up. Dispatcher: "We never got a chance to dispatch" the original call from 1:05AM. Battery case HX221648.

2:00AM: Intoxicated woman fighting the staff and refusing to leave John Barleycorn.

2:15AM: Deuces and the Diamond Club, 3505 N. Clark, is holding a battery offender.

2:41AM: A man is seen breaking into a silver car in the 3800 block of Kenmore. An officer who is working alone takes the call, engages in a foot pursuit, and takes the man into custody. Nicely done, officer.

3:21AM: Bloody guy down in the street at Belmont and Kenmore.

3:46AM: Man down, roll EMS. Outside Irish Oak, 3511 N. Clark.

4:32AM: A resident of the 1100 block of Cornelia finds his home's window busted out. Criminal damage case HX221758

4:45AM: Responding to an alarm, officers find that someone tried to break through a couple of sets of doors at Best Buy at 2650 N. Clark. Recorded as criminal damage to property in case HX221783

Essentially, the FBI is saying Chicago is a lost cause. Seeing as how no one can argue with a straight face, or without a hand in your pocket, that spending more on countless social programs isn't even more ridiculous than jailing everyone.

The ingrained gang culture is easy to solve:

1) Legalize marijuana, cocaine, heroin, or whatever else someone wants to ingest, sell it over the counter to anyone over 18 at a liquor store. Just make it illegal to drive or operate machinery while high.

Takes the profit motive out of the Gang-side of things.

2) Commit a criminal act, and further it with a firearm? 10 years. Federal prison. Maximum security. 24x7 lockdown, Russian-gulag style. Single cells. Double doors. No way to "kite" messages. 1 hr out for exercise.

No hanging out with the homies. No outside communication - let your lawyer come to you. No family visits. NOTHING for 10 years.

3) No plea bargains. No early release. No credit for "time served". No concurrent sentencing. No "time off for good behavior". N O T H I N G but 10 years.

4) No more dropping out of high school. You're in until you're 21. No HS Diploma (or GED for those already out), and you can't be employed by anyone - make it a $100K/day/person fine to do so. No licenses. No welfare. No permits. No loans. No bank accounts. No credit cards. No health care. No emergency care. N O T H I N G.

5) No prosecutorial discretion for those under 18, but over 13, charged with violent felonies. All charged as adults. Remove the motivation for gangs to use minors, because they'll catch a break.

6) Everyone in prison works. They do something that helps society. They all go to school. No bullshit lying around all day doing nothing or working out. You go to school, you work. You eat. You sleep. No fun.

7) FBI forensic investigations of ALL Aldercritters and Mayor to start with. Then work over to those putz' at Crook County. Same with those in Springfield too. Clean out the corruption.

8) Hire more CPD. Return to old school CPD: Obey or get tuned up.

9) No more cradle to grave welfare. 1 yr on food stamps or unemployment MAXIMUM. No more food stamps for 5 years - and they must be working either at a real job, or doing some community service that gives them some form of job skills while they work so they can pay off their debt to society (food stamps). Same deal with free heat, free phones, bus passes, and all the freebies - it's a LOAN. You pay it back. Whatever amount of kid(s) you have when you come into the system is what we kick in some money for a year for. No more of this "I gotz 16 kidz, who gonna feed dem?" bullshit. You put your dick in it, you created it, you let him do it, you had it - YOU PAY FOR IT BECAUSE IT'S YOURS.


Start kicking ass and taking names, and telling the Revuns to STFU and help educate their flock, or GTFO. We're done.

The blunt truth is, the law can't rehabilitate baby daddys sitting in prison as fast as the baby mommas breed replacements.

Neither can well-intentioned social welfare groups rehab upcoming baby mommas fast enough to put a dent in the supply of future dickheads.

Chicago keeps pissing money down a rat hole by dicking around the edges of the problem with an endless circle jerk of incremental changes. Meanwhile it only gets worse.

You'd think after years of watching this descent into hell that a mayor with any stones would realize the system isn't working. Yet neither the mayor nor his lapdog aldercreatures have the balls to try to break the cycle.

Here's a hint: Start treating the problem for what it is, massive and ingrained. And it includes bangers and politicians and judges and cops. Street crime and white collar. Adopt a zero tolerance policy for all felonious crime within in the city. Sentences will be doubled and full time will be served....in states across the country, costs paid for by the city.

After release the dickhead is prohibited from ever returning to the city. Being found inside city limits after release will result in an automatic return to prison elsewhere for another double sentence.

Make the stakes high enough that the message gets through. They're not welcome in the city. Eventually they'll relocate elsewhere and their baby mommas will follow. Hell, it probably would even keep Blago away.

Pay for it with the proceeds from the new casino.

And, they controlled all phases of public employment to include the police department.

Another thing that the Feds should be looking into is that more gun cases need to be tried on the "federal" level. There are 94 districts for federal courts in the U.S.
Guess which district has the most gun arrest?
Now guess which district tries the lowest percentage of gun cases on the federal level?
If you are in the federal court the plea bargains arent going to be as plentiful. also they won't be dropping them down, it will be a felony. They will also be serving real time and not be getting this 50% of the sentence.

IMO that would be a good start.

OT - Happy birthday to our late-great Mayor Washington. Not a bad guy, he loved all the people of the city and went out of his way to mix with all people. Color was not a factor. He always had a sincere smile on his face. He died broke and was not a crook like the Daley'.
Miss you Mr. Mayor.

5 cops caught in lies on witness stand, judge say's .........Pruente, one of seven Chicago narcotics officers working the case that day, testified that after the traffic stop he smelled marijuana in Sperling's gold Ford Taurus while waiting for the Glenview man to produce his driver's license and insurance. He said he then ordered Sperling — who admitted at the scene to having a "little weed" with him — out of the car and to stand near the trunk. As other officers looked on, Pruente said he searched the car and then handcuffed and arrested Sperling after finding the marijuana.

The other four officers who testified backed up Pruente's version of the events to one degree or another. They all are liars.Police in the police state.

The FBI investigating Chicago gangs, you have to be kidding. The Chicago gangs don’t commit process crimes like perjury signing legal documents under false pretenses, tax evasion with accompanying paperwork or the high crime of lying or providing false statements to federal agents during interviews. The gangs are violent and deceptive. Here is a hint with the low down and skinny. Gangs don’t work 9-5, Mon thru Fri, holidays off. Big time special agents be on notice, you may have to adjust your hours. Narcotics and gangs go hand in hand. Narcotic distribution charges bring down these criminal enterprises. Didn’t the just-us dept. lessen the sentencing guidelines of narcotic related crimes particularly involving crack cocaine because of some colorful made up urban bias? Bottom line- don’t do the crime unless you can do the time.

Now the FBI will be the magical knights in shining armor who are going to solve the out of control murderous, gang problem. We all read all these stories of misappropriation of public moneies and the like on an everyday basis. These overseers of public corruption get an “F” for combating and prosecuting these open and notorious public financial crimes, their specialty. Little if anything is actually done.

So why then will the suits be good at murders? These everyday murders are prosecuted at a state level not at a federal level. Murder with few exceptions is a state not a federal crime. Yes, they have enormous budgets to pay informants and overtime for task forces. Federal convictions mean 85% of the sentence as opposed to the let-em go coddling state and county social justice coddling penal institutions. Yes, they are good at R.I.C.O. type conspiracies. Their success relies on conspirators talking, incriminating themselves and others in their own words filling in the blanks making the case against everyone air tight. Their cooperation makes the “g” look like law enforcement superstars ensuring a near-perfect successful prosecution rate. It’s the locals that do the heavy lifting but it is the fed prosecutors and the “g” that get all the credit.

Harold Washington was honored today April 15th the income tax due date at DuSable Cultural Museum. On this tax day honoring the noted lawyer Washington, his legacy of his 1972 convictions for felony tax evasion and failing to file tax returns earned him 36 days in jail was not highlighted. Nor that he was subsequently disbarred and prohibited from practicing law in the State of Illinois. He soon would rise up to the position of Illinois state representative, Illinois state senator, U.S. congressmen and then mayor joining the ranks of those who write tax law which the working class must subscribe to under penalty of law. Who says crime doesn’t pay? It is an irony that his birthday is April 15th, the date most identified with the dreaded lawfully required federal tax filing due date. Ethics matters. What might his constituents be thinking when they elected a guy over and over with an identified shady background? Who is the genius who named an S.S.I. benefits distribution center building on Madison Street in his honor given his history of not sacrificing and not paying his fair share just like the common folks and people? He is not a crook-just a tax cheat.

Illegal drugs are the main economy in many south and west side neighborhoods. There are no jobs to be had for the most part. Add the proliferation of guns and street gangs running the drug trade, and you have the violence we've seen over the last 30 years. The destruction of the projects only made the gang violence problem worse. Until REAL jobs return to the south and west sides, or poor people leave Chicago in large numbers, this will not stop.The Feds aren't equipped to do any more than CPD has already done to curb the violence. POVERTY is what fuels the violence on the south and west sides of the city.

Only in Illinois could someone like this be elected to office.

It should surprise no one that "...the gangs are part and parcel of the political structure..."

"Drop the bomb exterminate them all."

It would take a direct nuke strike on Chicago to burn out this culture of criminality.

The Feebs aren't going to do shit...

Daley Inc. moved Heaven, Earth and a few precincts in Hell to put that hollow-assed "community organizer" in the White House so he wouldn't fuck up the ongoing double-handed, corporate sponsored criminal political thievery and chicanery.

Now that baton has been passed on to a little, flouncing, hair-on-fire maladjusted maniac currently living his childhood dream of revenge against the world for whatever slights he felt he was too good to suffer...

That's why he's getting his financial freak on... Busily humping every criminal/political & media leg, every sleazy neo corporatist leg and every gold coast/north shore phony charity/money laundering leg in the fucking room like a demented Chihuahua.

>PANT-PANT-PANT!<

He gets HIS nut while you churls get the titanic financial & city service cock-block...

What the fuck was Mistuh Big Bad Eff-Bee-Eye guy jaw-jackin' about?

It was a bunch of noise and a tacit admission that Chicago is too far gone for Feeb intervention.

But don't you worry your pretty little heads!

They're always sniffing around to hang a copper's scalp on their walls.

They don't like to fuck too much with them iron legged-parade back and forth "to da conuh sto'" all fucking day, mind-locked, death worshipping hard head m/fers from Lawndale, Austin, Englewood, Gresham, Grand Crossing, Pullman etc.

THOSE WILD ASSED MUTHAFUCKAHS, have NO rules of conduct and a skewed like a mofo moral compass... Feebs don't like rubbing up against truly savage m/fers.

Oh no... The Feebs ain't gonna fuck with those wild, fast-twitch muscle fiber, yellow fingernail having, red-eyed, plaque-mouthed, death loving, gun banging spawn of the underworld...

"Don't give no fuck 'bout nuttin' joe!"

And m/fer indescriminately sprays jizz and bullets everyfucking where.

The Feebs jump back and holler, "EEK! Not in my eyes!"

But bless what's left of your soul if they don't blow the load on a 20 year investigation into some coppers doing dumb shit...

To let them tell it, that's the only crime they really have time for.

Coppers are easy targets...

Impress us by slamming the gate on some of these BEE-AY-DEE m/fers who have turned this city into "Creature Feature."

The Police are the enemy...
Viva Hate...

Do your time.
Survive.
Get the fuck out.

Leave the joyful haters, shit-talkers, the clueless and the non-contributors to scream for help and curse you in the same breath as they burn to blackened skeletons while hanging on the burglar bars...

"You fucking Cops! Why aren't you burning in these flames with us?"

>Rummages around for that bottle of Bulleit rye. 3-finger pour... Pause... A cynical laugh. A clink of the rock glass with the bottle to all you usual suspects (Y'all know who y'all is!) who remember what being a Patrolman WAS.<

>Sip! Ahhhhhh... Good whiskey.<

Mmm-Hmm...

the gangs are not half as organized as they were in the 70s and 80's

now disorganized small groups shooting eachother for looking at them the wrong way

years ago there was citywide leadership for gds and el rukns

those were gangs

the problem isn't gangs

it's how certain minorities do not know how to act, plain and simple

Tell Comey we need the DOJ Public Integrity unit to pay a visit to The City! ...of course, that won't happen since The Machine owns The White House!

That assumes that someone in DOJ has a passing understanding of "Public Integrity." You couldn't prove it by what they've done (or not done) over the past 5 years.
