Light Weekend
It's almost like winter again:
- Six people were shot between Friday afternoon and Saturday morning, according to police.
- Three men and 2 boys were taken to hospitals following four separate shootings on the South and Southwest sides [Saturday] morning and afternoon.
Add in a few outlying shootings and the odd homicide and we might actually have less than 25 people shot for the first time in a month.
The strategies must be working again after taking all of April off. Welcome back Strategies!

SCC come on now. Father Phaker had a rally this weekend. The community finally sees the light. All is well. I am going to head downtown and spend several hundred dollars on parking and a hamburger.
4 was a blood bath Saturday night. No time off for chalkie!!!
Atleast 2 Days will be in the 80's next week...
Of course the strategies are working. Crime is down. Murder is down. The Bronx Bomber is a genius.
The strategies were on furlough.
Comp stat and safe savage will save us.
"The strategies must be working again after taking all of April off."
Facetiousness aside, consider the savage beast temporarily soothed due to that one inexplicable force that has baffled sociologists for generations:
F.O.T.M.E.C.P., also known as the "First of the Month Entitlement Check Phenomenon" is known to produce episodes of relative calm and increased lethargy in certain demographics.
This effect gradually wanes, rekindling the propensity for violence and criminality in a relationship best described as inversely proportional.
What's all this science mumbo-jumbo mean????
Answer: give the usual suspects a few days to spend that "free" loot, and it'll be back to business as usual before you can say "Safe Passage".
Chalkie had prior commitments for this weekend but assures us he'll be back to business as usual this week.
the reverends said shut it off is my guess
mutiple shot at 540 w Erie this morning
I love it when you post shit like this SCC, cuz it usually conjures up some strange power which restores things back to their abnormal selves. Like the four assholes shot in one incident in 018 at 0315 hours this morning. Three critical at last update. Must suck to be McBrickCity when that blackberry starts blowing up at last call.
They checks come in on they first

Damn funny s^&t!! Some of you guys missed your true calling and must be a riot to work with. Would love to know how you folks come up with this stuff. You and a few others are my faves to read (why doesn't Box Chevy always leave his name?) Stay safe, from a "hair gel".
Stabbings seem to up and they are running gangbangers over with cars!
Almost there. 6 from Fri-Sat and 18 from Sat at 11am till Sunday morning (5am)
Now they are breaking it down to specific times. Maybe it will not appear to be a bloodbath this way.
shooting in the River North neighborhood left a man dead and three others wounded early Sunday morning, the four among at least 18 people shot since 11 a.m. Saturday.

Well, you knew it was just gonna happen.....
--- 1 dead, 3 injured in River North shooting'
ABC Chicago (Updated at 06:49 AM today) ---
May 4, 2014 (WLS) -- One person was killed and three were injured in a shooting in the city's River North neighborhood early Sunday morning. ~~snip~~ All four victims shot were known gang members, police said. No one is in custody.
There isn't one 'safe place' left in Chica...'Chiraq' thanks to all the degenrate gangbangers (gotta love those 'chicago values' Rahm & the Alder-creatures talk about)
God is this a violent city. Are other major cities such as Miami and Los Angeles seeing all these shootings on a daily basis? Maybe Garry and Co should adapt some of THEIR strategies and implement them here in Chicago.
Yeah, "welcome back strategies!"
CRIME IS DOWN -- 4 shot in River North among 18 wounded across city
By Peter Nickeas and Rosemary Regina Sobol Tribune reporters

"Unusually cool spring," yet the CompStat box is already whining, shuddering, blowing smoke out the cooling vents.
TILT.
RESET. RESET. RESET.
Chicago shootings and gang violence are the economic engine of this Sanctuary City.
The mayor and superintendents job is to produce the propaganda and instill the fear into the people to keep the status quo.
When you hear a speeches from this clan just remember almost everything they say is the exact opposite of reality
When the DOJ and the CIA arm Al-Qaeda with weapons and, run guns to mexican drug cartels, what kind of FOID card do these people need?
What kind of background checks do they do when they turnover shoulder fired anti-aircraft weapons to people like that Syrian rebels?
How about stopping the Investment Bankers that are laundering the drug money -- because, as we are preached to non-stop the "Broken Windows" crime fighting that says: stopping the little crimes prevents the larger ones from happening.
Cathy lil' Northwestern Univ. marketing ploy using carefully crafted words designed to conjure up emotions but we have no intention of enforcing don't ya think?
Ah-ha, here's another murder -- with car as weapon -- I found by chance.
-->> Police: Pedestrian Killed By Hit-And-Run Driver In McKinley Park May 3, 2014 9:50 AM
--- CHICAGO (CBS) || 'A Chicago man is dead tonight after a traffic altercation escalates into violence. Investigators say the car crash in McKinley Park early Saturday morning was intentional. Police say the 24-year-old got into an argument with a person in a white SUV, on the 1800 block of W. 33rd Place. Police say Mendez and his friends left their Chevy Cavalier to approach the SUV. That’s when police say the SUV’s driver hit Mendez with the vehicle, killing him.' ---
uhhhh?...since the 'murder weapon' was a car, and not a gun or knife, will McCompStat count this as a Homicide, or have it chalked up something like: 'Death from traffic accident'? And will McClueless go on TV moaning that we need some 'Common Sense Vehicle Control Laws' in Illinois? (/s)
Wow, found another murder. Seems like things heated from from that quite start to the weekend.....
++++ Man Stabbed To Death In Chatham May 4, 2014 9:48 AM ++++
---->[CBS Chicago] -- CHICAGO (STMW) — 'A man was stabbed to death during a fight Saturday night in the Chatham neighborhood on the South Side. ~~~ snip ~~~ Rickey Hayes, 55, was involved in an altercation with another male in the 7900 block of South Ingleside at 9:45 p.m.... The other man stabbed Hayes in the chest~~~ snip ~~~ No one is in custody...' <----
Guess we need some 'Common Sense Knife Control Laws' in IL now too, right McCrimeIsDown.
WRT: "
F.O.T.M.E.C.P., also known as the "First of the Month Entitlement Check Phenomenon" is known to produce episodes of relative calm and increased lethargy in certain demographics."
Ah yes!
However the corporate and politically clouted ones need to grown this segment of the population to keep the attention away from their high crimes.
Recently the headlines proclaim UNEMPLOYMENT DROPS- 288K JOBS CREATED!
Woo-fucking-hoo eh! We're coming back baby. /sarc
The unemployment reports are like Garry and Rahm's crime stats tho.
Look closer and you'll find that the size of the labor force is not growing. In fact the number of people that left the labor force was three times the size of the so-called job creation that was just announced. Just shy of one million people.
And of course we should not even mention the turning over of the jobs from living wage positions into burger flippers. The type of jobs whereas the elite ones can tell you that these positions were never designed to be living wage jobs whenever the debates of higher min-wages are brought forth.
Yes. So you see. When are the ivy-league grads with the higher math and science scores going to address this social divide.
The middle class are all just churls and chattel.
Rahm's public schools are not interested in teaching "the children' how to be self sufficient and so you can expect the issue to grow.
Go cower in the corner and wait for the authorities to do something. Is that not the message?
Listen and follow the corporate authorities, your boss, and do only what you are told to do.
Don't think for yourself.
We are suppose to be surprised at this outcome?
Why not plant a garden and grow your own food. Can't do it! City ordinance violation.
Teach a man to fish? Ha, got no money for the license and the season isn't right for what you've just caught. City ordinance violation.
Teach a man to hunt? Gonna need a FOID card for that and some ammo. Political and corporate apparatus certainly don't want that.
The system is broke.
Chalkie had his daughters wedding to attend to in Detroit. He will be back in full force next weekend.
OMG! There are bodies lying in the streets of River North with gun shot wounds!!
Erie street.
FOUR MORE YEAR -- FOUR MORE YEARS.
Someone mentioned the other day.
Hillary Clinton vs Jeb Bush on the next election ballot.
The royal families handing down control from generation to generation... REALLY AMERICA?
The same goes for Chicago and Illinois. It's time for a different kind of change.
Sat night to Sunday morning was pretty much a bloodbath with about 3 killed and 19 shot. Chalkie must have warmed up or broke out the puffy coat for the night.
Not really that slow, 22 or 23 shot as of Friday to 1 pm Sunday. And we still have half the day left. Go Hawks!!
Who are the people in the photos accompanying the tribe story with "OFFICER" written on their backs? Security guards?
If we are so short officers every weekend, does that mean we don't have enough officers?
That was a rhetorical question of course. We spend millions on overtime every weekend because the current administration has let the Department ranks dwindle to a dangerously low level.
I addition to being short on the weekends, we are shorthanded every day of the week. We have stripped all the manpower from working tax paying District and sent them to keep a lid on the mayhem in the ghetto. Is everyone getting this? Is the Media purposely ignoring this? Why would they?
It looks like the Media is in the politicians pocket and judging by their silence it's impossible to come to any other conclusion.
Been reading comments about businesses and CCW. I believe every time we run across a business that prohibits CCW, give it a post. I enjoyed reading about Orland Mall from a poster. It has been so bad there the last couple of years, I thought I was going to get robbed in the lot by a group of 5. I would never go there without my snub. Now I will not go at all. I will not support any idiotic business that has an open invite for someone to kill or harm me. Had a bad incident at Costco Burbank 2 years ago. A M/1 bodybuilder went in front of me in line screaming I went in front of him. Everyone knew there was no one in line behind me for at least 3 minutes. The clerk rang up his stuff in front of me while I argued with him. They opened another register for me but I had to move. Now I had to go to the parking lot with him out there. Being a female you think they would have had some concern. Glad I was armed. I made sure I knew where he was in the lot. More internet shopping. My UPS man doesn't care that I have a gun. Sorry for the rant but let's keep each other informed.

Jeb Bush would probably be the best choice for President in his family. Unfortunately, I will not vote for another Bush. I believe in term limits and familial-tie limits. I won't vote for a third one.
Shootings have nothing to do with weather. OOOOOOOH that kool-aid tastes good.....
evidently Chalkie was out of town being up at waukegan, il at GoJo's cafe at 3 am
three people shot one critical
possibly now on tour.

Takes a lot less for me to leave my whole order on the belt and just walk out. You people see if you can re-shelve the ice cream before it melts, etc. Not my problem.
Lots of competition these days, and there's plenty more ice cream in other stores. Let the manager know that on your way out (if you can find one.)
Actually had an off-the-clock checkergirl who should have been going home follow me out into the lot remonstrating with me one time. Her little heart just beat for that place.
Yet another reason why Dominick's is no more.

Vote for whomever you want in the primary. Vote for the candidate that smells the least in one that counts.
You don't like Jeb. Hillary is a better choice then? Vote for whichever Republican they put up at the end. We cannot take 8 more years of this Progressive agenda. It is weakening our country. It is diminishing our role as a world leader. It is dangerous for our Nation and for the world.

I like Jeb well enough. But an unchecked political dynasty is also dangerous for our nation and for the world.
