Bad Choices Catch Up

  • Daniel Jones couldn't pull away from the gang life, even after a rough scrape with the law nearly three years ago when he was arrested for the wounding of two Chicago police officers but then let go.

    "At the end of the day, he was a grown man," the 30-year-old's mother, Sandra Jones, said. "I talked and talked until I was blue in the face. You hope that one day they make the right choice to get out of the life. . .My son loved that life, and I'm not glorifying it, but he loved that life and that's what he wanted to do."

    Last week, Jones was sitting in a car near Washington Boulevard and Pulaski Road when a gunman walked up and fired, hitting Jones in the head and killing him, police said. Jones had argued with someone earlier in the day, and his mother believes that person followed her son after he left his grandmother's home.

    "He slipped, he should have never been by himself," said Jones, 54.  "He had a criminal background but he was trying to turn his life around."
Gee, that always happens - just about to turn it all around and find the cure for cancer or something and then BLAMITY BLAM BLAM BLAM!!! A hail of bullets finishes off another Nobel Prize Laureate. What are the chances?

We don't know why the Tribune is wasting ink and electrons on this guy. He wasn't famous. He wasn't rich. He wasn't in politics. He was a 30-year-old gang banging piece of shit who "loved that life" according to mamma, a drag on the economy and society in general. We're supposed to feel sympathy or something?

Too bad momma didn't actually do her mommaly duties and WHOOP HIS ASS for being in that life.

Grown man or not - his mom brought him in this world, it's up to her to keep him doing right. If he doesn't, she gets to kick his ass.

And I don't know a Judge or Jury anywhere on the Planet that would have found her guilty of a crime for doing so.

I advise and bleeding heart white liberal to go stand on the corner of Washington and Pulaski and see how life in the ghetto really is. See what their liberal agenda has done. It made a entire population of thieves and takers. That area really is no different than Mogadishu, Somalia.

Then ask yourself if wasting taxpayer dollars on that area is worth it?

Was he aspiring to be a rap artist "star" as part of his life turn-around plan?

Them there rap stars make pretty good money. Not as much as movie stars or TV stars but pretty good nonetheless. Better money than most 2nd city cops....course, being a rap star is lots more dangerous than being a 2nd city cop

Prohibition never has worked in the past has it?

Prohibition of alcohol create violence, it didn't work.

City has tried to ban spray paint to stop graffiti and look around. Another prohibition that didn't work

https://twitter.com/Chicago_Tags

Maybe if they required a license and charged a fee to do background checks and then filmed all the people buying the spray paint, then our worried would be over eh? LMFAO.

They should pass a law that limits the amount of spray paint that you can buy a month to one can! Yeah!?

The city tried to ban handguns and that didn't work.

You would think that they have learned. But no.

How many billions, trillions of dollars have been spent on this so-called war on drugs that has financed huge drug cartels south of the border and elsewhere?

Do you think that the politicians are THAT stupid to not see it or are they tied into the proceeds?

Stop the drug violence?!

Well mr mayor we don't see you taking away the gangs money like you try to take away gun manufacturers money.

The gun manufacturers you try to cut off their loans from banks.

If drugs were legalized the money would be cut off from dealing drugs and financing gangs.

Much like when the prohibition of alcohol ended and an entire black market was wiped out.

Ahhh, but then without this fear. If we took all that money and bloodshed on a pseudo drug war away the politicians power base would be hurt. They would lose their tool for taxes and programs where the connected ones get clouted jobs. They would lose a huge distraction because fear is a distraction and the taxpayers may begin to take a closer look at what the politicians are doing.

They certainly don't want that now do they?

I mean come on. Look at the size of this black market they created. It's huge! The city could likely build lush palace-like hotels with opium dens to lock people inside to do their drugs saving money reducing the violence in the process.

But no. Just keep doing what is not working and somehow expect the results to be different tomorrow.

That we are just about to turn the corner on winning the drug battle. We just need one more day, week, month, year. HA.

Doesn't sound much different than the often heard "he was trying to turn his life around" does it?

A sure sign on insanity.

Legalize it mayor. Don't decriminalize it, legalize it and tax it as we can certainly use a new revenue stream for the good of the people.

The taxpayers can't afford the taxes to keep these drug offenders locked up anyways. It's a losing battle.

Why is he dead? Based on his past he should have been on the Hot List of 2nd Degree of Association gang members. The Predictive Analysis Unit should have known he was going to be a murder victim and if he was met with during a Custom Notification he should have been willing to leave the gang life. So with all those crime fighting tools working against violence this murder should never have happened. Right Garry?

A panel of lawmakers reviewing Gov. Pat Quinn’s botched $55 million anti-violence program delivered yet another political blow to the re-election seeking Democrat, voting Monday to subpoena seven former state officials who helped create and run the now-defunct Neighborhood Recovery Initiative.

http://capitolfax.com/2014/06/24/audit-commission-subcommittee-votes-to-subpoena-seven-quinn-people/

See, there's no motivation to really end the violence only pseudo programs and so-called initiatives.

Fifty_five million dollars!

How ya gonna award that taxpayer money to your political friends if you don't have a violence tool, children, and fear to work with?

Conjure up some emotions using "the children". That seems to work well, yeah?

It's not just Quinn.

How many millions did Rahm blow on violence interrupters with nothing to show for the money except maybe some bought and paid for votes to ensure the status quo.

Google maps has this somewhat new feature called time machine. Take a look at the mind blowing pics of:

The Death And Decay Of Detroit, As Seen From The Streets

I figure since Chicago seems to be on the same path as Detroit that I'd look up some Chicago addresses on it and flip back thru the years.

However, amazingly, for some reason the addresses that I plugged in didn't have the feature or it only went back a year or maybe two.

Anyways, since you guys are on the streets everyday maybe you can find some pertinent locations similar to the Detroit decay to showcase this World-Class Sanctuary City as it should be shown.

I love that Momma says her boy "...wasn't a bad person." Sure, Momma - I guess he wasn't that bad - as long as he wasn't jacking YOUR car, beating YOUR a**, robbing YOUR store or pointing a gun in YOUR face. Unfortunately, the guy who shot him didn't share your opinion. But as you say, he "loved the life" so he had to know that kind of love has risks that can't be fixed with penicillin.

It's sad that it's is the norm in that culture... No one wants to address the elephant in the room yet we all know the root cause of violence. No it's not their race, it's the enablers who keep throwing money and free programs towards them. There isn't any incentive for them to go work a real job when they make more money doing nothing and collecting government, state, and city monies.
I blame the liberals for most of it, the rest is our fault for letting it get so out of hand...
