Someone Want to Explain This?

Happy day in Boystown....except for this:


Bad news - no pool cars available citywide for this one.

We don't recall this happening at the South Side Irish extravaganza, nor the Bud Biliken Parade, and those two events have taken quite a beating for out-of-control behavior over the years here.

Did anyone see any coverage in the media at all?

And to top it off, the "after party" is marred by gunfire:
  • Two women, ages 21 and 47, were shot Sunday evening near Montrose Beach in the Uptown neighborhood on the North Side, Chicago Police said.

    The shooting happened about 6:04 p.m. near the 4500 block of North Simonds Drive, police said.

    Both women were taken in serious condition to Advocate Illinois Masonic Medical Center, police said.
This has been the scene of near-riots and out-of-control behavior for at least the past few years. Guns, knives, beatings, assaults of all sorts, public morals offenses of every type. And it's all related to the parade. Is anyone going to speak up?

The offenders of the CDTV can rely on the local politicians to intervene if they are arrested.

The politicians would just say, "The boys were just being boys."

They feel they can get away with it because "The Boys of Boystown"~VOTE!

Cops don't vote.

Let's demand that FOP, PB&PA and IAFF run a get out the vote drive and make the politicians FEAR US.

We should call it THE BLUE VOTE CAMPAIGN.

The Crime in Boystown blog did a good wrapup of the crimes today. There are photos to people who may have smashed the police cars.

There's no excuse, and the parade is out of control. It needs to be moved downtown and handled better. It all starts with the parade organizers and goes to Ald. Tom Tunney's office and to City Hall.

Yes, and if this was any other parade, it would have been shut down. The Southside Irish parade was just as bad. But you take a very vocal minority group with deep pockets (yes, I'm painting with a broad brush) with the high potential for bad PR if there's a misstep and you have kid gloves treatment.

I feel bad for the police who had to work it - 019 is understaffed and was overwhelmed today.

The parade is out of control. I witnessed that today.

As of 0200 hours, five people were shot in the 019 district. Think about that for a minute. All parade related. No doubt this parade has to be taken out of the neighborhood.

You can add another shooting to the post parade festivities. One shot right on Belmont a little over an hour ago. This was with a large police presence. It just goes to show you, if someone wants to hurt someone, they're going to find a way to do it.

There was also another shooting and foot chase around 8pm after the two at the beach.

The criminal element has taken over this day as and used it as an excuse to do whatever they feel like.

Yeah.

You mean the GAY PRIDE PARADE, as it was always called? Why so coy all of a sudden?

No, it is not "an event for everyone." Keep your "inclusiveness" to yourself. Nobody asked you.

One of the loudest, most well-moneyed, special-pleading, untouchable, equal-beyond-equal, we-must-be-protected groups around -- but look at the police car that came to watch over their giant public handjob-and-liquor party. (Isn't that one of those stupid "SILENCE = DEATH" stickers on the hood, too? How dramatic. How radical.)

The parade route was only 4 miles long, so you're telling me you had 250,000 extra people per mile packed in?

I find this very hard to believe. Anyone that was there who can actually shed some light on the estimated attendance?

The South Side Irish Parade gets shut down for a bunch of fistfights and public urination, but other parades and festivals that include public acts of violence are allowed to continue? Someone has some explaining to do..... Why are certain events untouchable no matter what?

Agreed, from someone who has worked all three of the mention parades. take the worst year of the south side Irish parade and that would be a tame pride parade. Hell all bud has been the last few years is a million missing kids everyone smoking weed with the occasional shots fired call, not much different than any other south side night. It will take someone getting killed to get the pride parade cancelled. It's really to bad for the law abiding gay/lesbian population because this year they had a own a big victory for their way of life. Oh well shit heads ruin everything.

The fest and parade runs through 44 and 46 wards.

We have 3 openly gay aldercteatures:
Cappleman and Tunney and Mell.And before anyone cringes, I'm not here to bash.

Tunney openly panders to the GLBT vote, and I presume that Cappleman does the same thing since he survived the last election against Schller and her machine support.
Politically it makes sense, get and keep the support of the voters that are like you.


IMO the problem with Pride is that while the Northside GLBT community (for theost part at least) knows how to behave out in public during and after the event.

The last time I worked the event was 08. The majority of issues I dealt with we're from Southsiders and Suburbanites and just normal morons.

And be aware, old 23 is getting faster and faster and is no longer a retirement district unless you drive a traffic car between 6am and 3pm and only do Parker's and Mover's for your whole tour.

I wish I can say "it's just a few idiots who are the problem", but I can't.... It's everyone! They are jumping on squad cars, trying to jump baracades and take over the parade route, fighting with police, and the passing out left and right needing medical assistance. I did not see one person in attendance attempt to tell another to stop acting like an idiot, absolutely no attempt to police themselves. This is the worst social event in America, but it's "ok" because its all in the name of self expression!.... Barf.... This parade should undoubtedly be cancelled until the gay community gets there act together! You want equality, start acting like you deserve it!!!

The police are a symbol of the old order to the radical homosexual movement.

The police are in need of fundamental transformation.

Police departments are traditionally a bastion of white, heterosexual, Christian, traditionalists. They must be smashed, left disorganized and the individual officers made politically impotent.

The radical homosexual and feminist left has largely accomplished it's goal of destroying law enforcement in major cities.

They are now doing the same to the military.

Just a reminder to anyone interested. The zoning committee is scheduled to meet next Wed. July 2 at 6:30 at Olympia park.
Up for discussion is a request by builder to change zoning on property at 6430 N. Northwest highway. The zoning change if approved will allow SRO housing units.

***** Very important zoning committee meeting about 6430 N. Northwest highway *****
This is the building Dunkin Donuts is in on Devon and Northwest highway.

The builder wants to turn the entire unused space into a SRO Hotel. SRO Hotels (Single Room Occupancy) are commonly known as Flop Houses.

They have been working on the conversion of the space for the past 3 months. Now that its complete they are looking to get the zoning changed."

Let's all keep it real, 90% of the problems in Lakeview and Uptown were not due to "Gay Pride" but really "Black Pride". Just keeping it real, if anyone drove around at night time on Belmont, Halsted, and all of Montrose Harbor after the parade and into the night, it didn't look or appear to be droves of Lakeview Residents, but actually the majority being Englewood Residents. Let us not fool ourselves it was gangs of Asians from Chinatown or Latins from Little Village. Call it out for what the reality is which can be seen with your own friggin' eyes. So let me get this right? South Side Irish Parade closed down years back, for some issues with intoxicated people…….BUT 2 females shot at Montrose Harbor Black Pride, more shot in Uptown Black Pride, and later that night more shot in Sheffield-Belmont. And guess what???? No one even brings the idea of canceling next year gay/black pride events because you will be branded as a racist or homophobic. Go figure!? I guess their goal is to have a dozen homicides next year, GO PRIDE!

Hey tardboy, any contract has to be ratified by the rank and file. If an arbitrator makes the decision then we don't get a chance to ratify.

It doesn't matter who's at the helm of the SS FOP, the city has it's limit on what they'll give us and I'm guessing it's what the CFD got.

As long as we can't strike we are over a barrel.
Stop worrying, you'll live longer.

Ha-ha-ha. I just read 'Crime In Wrigleyville + Boystown'. They really don't hold nothing back and really really don't seem to like the Gay Pride Parade, its promoter/owner/whomever, what its become, the criminal element the parade now draws, and the phony crowd estimate -- the one million they claim is a mathematical impossibility.

And what I find surprising though I shouldn't, is the out of control crime that follows the parade in the 19th Dist --- 'CIW+B' has it all documented --- and the fact is that the Parade now creates a Public Nuisance and real Public Safety Hazard. Given the documented CRIMES, I can't see how the city allows this thing to continue.

All of the, the....bullshit that's going on there is a recipe for disaster. Sooner or later these ghetto-rat thugs are gonna get the surprise of their short life when they start getting a 9mm in the face instead of someone's iPhone.

I live in this general facility. This is no longer the Gay Pride parade. It is the ghetto pride parade. The corner of Belmont and Sheffield was an absolute zoo around 9 pm when I walked down. I wanted to bust out a fire hose.

I've had enough of these people in my neighborhood. I witnessed a god da#$ robbery on Friday outside of my house and the cops couldn't even arrest the POS because he handed off the stolen property at one point.

This "Pride Parade" needs to be cancelled entirely or moved downtown.

You have no idea how bad it was. Easily needed another 200 police officers. Easily needed another 25 Ambulances. The boss looked like he was going to have a grabber from all the stress. The chopper calling out that every time the train stopped, hundreds of people exited into the street. No shit, duh! Boy was it sunny and hot. Add long hours, standing the whole time on hot pavement and the insane congestion of people, besides the hundreds of medical emergencies that went out, even police officers were hit with heat exhaustion. bullet proof vests, all that equipment and dark pants in the all day heat gives you little cool off ability. How many years has the CPD had to do this? How long should we have learned from our mistakes? Definitely needed lots more manpower and a better game plan. The squad car in the photo isn't the only one damaged or only incident. So many residents vehicles got damaged too. A lot of sweeping under the carpet on this one.

You can add another shooting to the post parade festivities. One shot right on Belmont a little over an hour ago. This was with a large police presence. It just goes to show you, if someone wants to hurt someone, they're going to find a way to do it.

There was also another shooting and foot chase around 8pm after the two at the beach.

The criminal element has taken over this day as and used it as an excuse to do whatever they feel like.

6/30/2014 02:58:00 AM

The gay community has their own thugs. It's a fallacy to believe that because a person is gay they are not criminal. The jails are filled with gay violent offenders. It's no surprise that the parades would become violent over the years when all and sundry are invited to "celebrate" their sexuality. Not sure what violence has to do with that but there have been armed robberies, assaults and batteries at that parade for decades. It's only natural that it would become more violent the bigger it gets and the more the police must have a hands off approach.

The parade needs to be canceled for a few years and if it returns, it is moved downtown. The only place that truly covers the out-of-control crime going on in Boystown is the very excellent blog Crime In Wrigleyville + Boystown

http://crimeinboystown.blogspot.com/

I no longer attend but did decide to see how the once upon a time fun after party atmosphere was. Broadway to Belmont was relaxed and casual, people enjoying themselves.

Halsted on the other hand has turned into something else all together. I didn't recognize Boystown because 99% of them were from either the South or West side. Thuggish, ghetto people screaming and just milling about and this was around 10pm! I walked up to Clark St. and even Wrigleyville was being invaded by the thugs. I saw them as far down as Wellington just wandering up and down Clark St.

There are growing cries from the community to cancel/move the parade. Tunney and Rahm are standing in the way though.

She turned around got in my face,in her drunken stuper and said what you wanna do,I didn't answered that question as it would have sounded threatening,she was spitting as she talked in a rage of toughness,of all her 5'2 and 120lbs of he man,but no one around us as couples and I say there were guys younger and hats cocked tough guys that didn't say a peep as not to offend her and her date,so I got up mentioned it to security and they said they were watching and had a few complaints about her disrupting the concert,finally in her drunken state she attempted to put her arm around her date to make that move to second base and by the way her date was objecting to her every advance as publically she was uncomfortable,but she accidentedly struck my leg and I ran to security and had her escorted out this was at least a half hour of complete aggravation,she looked back at me and as she was escorted out and said " you're gonna get yours! The people in there seats applauded me.But being the police means doing what's fair and right at the time and not wavering or being afraid to act kindly and justly! Even her date thanked me!

The blue sticker sticker carefully place on the hood of the police vehilce is that of the Human Rights campaign (HRC)is a 501(c)(3)&(4) non-profit big lobbyist organization.

HRC decided on a new Statement of Purpose:
“For the promotion of the social welfare of the gay and lesbian community by drafting, supporting and influencing legislation and policy at the federal, state and local level “

HRC is an umbrella group of two separate non-profit organizations and a political action committee: the HRC Foundation, a 501(c)(3) organization that focuses on research, advocacy and education; the Human Rights Campaign, a 501(c)(4) organization that focuses on promoting the social welfare of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) people through lobbying Congress and state and local officials for support of pro-LGBT bills, and mobilizing grassroots action amongst its members; and the HRC Political Action Committee, which supports candidates that adhere to its positions on LGBT rights

Motto: Working for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Equal Rights

Obviously, this non-profit lobby organization has a different public policy agenda and objectives to transform America which do not include the destruction of government property. And big political contributors to whom?

The parade route was only 4 miles long, so you're telling me you had 250,000 extra people per mile packed in?

I find this very hard to believe. Anyone that was there who can actually shed some light on the estimated attendance?

Scores more Tea Party types converged on D.C. during Glen Beck's 9/12 Project with no vandalism. In fact, the 9/12-ers picked up trash when leaving the park making it cleaner then when they got there.

And the liberal turds that show up for the Chiraq Gay Pride Parade say "Tea Baggers" are the problem.

It's just amazing.

Good Luck trying to keep your neighborhood safe and intact.

The way the politicians look at it is if the SRO housing has 30, 40 or 50 rooms that means 30, 40 or 50 controlled DEMOCOMMUNIST votes.

So screw you guys you would never vote for me anyway IF YOU VOTE AT ALL.

You have to make the politicians FEAR US.

They must fear that if they go through with this they will be the targets of THE BLUE VOTE. They must also fear that we will find their secrets, their bad habits, their mistresses or when their kids screw up.

The same is true of any politician who screws with our pensions.

Don't beg.
Register and VOTE.
Make THE BLUE VOTE happen.
Make the politicians FEAR US.

Dude I seriously thought you were joking and being sarcastic. For the sake of any children you may have or anyone that has to work with you...I still hope you were. The world owes the western man..hahahahahahahaha. The world has been anxiously waiting for the western man's decline. There is a reason that poor and destitute countries continue to resist western influence and if you actually speak with recent immigrants you will see how they respect the opportunity of the US but overall they detest western culture and values...which is why they get heartbroken as their kids Americanize. I'm a flag waving patriot personally but not based on us being right. Home is home and this is the only place I know. If you're too blind to see how the world views western civilization that's by choice. We're not even viewed in great esteem by European nations of the west, let alone outside of the west. They'll all be celebrating our demise together...western man hahahaha

Let's all keep it real, 90% of the problems in Lakeview and Uptown were not due to "Gay Pride" but really "Black Pride". Just keeping it real, if anyone drove around at night time on Belmont, Halsted, and all of Montrose Harbor after the parade and into the night, it didn't look or appear to be droves of Lakeview Residents, but actually the majority being Englewood Residents. Let us not fool ourselves it was gangs of Asians from Chinatown or Latins from Little Village. Call it out for what the reality is which can be seen with your own friggin' eyes. So let me get this right? South Side Irish Parade closed down years back, for some issues with intoxicated people…….BUT 2 females shot at Montrose Harbor Black Pride, more shot in Uptown Black Pride, and later that night more shot in Sheffield-Belmont. And guess what???? No one even brings the idea of canceling next year gay/black pride events because you will be branded as a racist or homophobic. Go figure!? I guess their goal is to have a dozen homicides next year, GO PRIDE!

"You have no idea how bad it was. Easily needed another 200 police officers."

Problem is that the Department doesn't have 200 more officers. It doesn't have 100. Be surprised if it could come up with 50.

The years of neglect are piling up. No new hires to replace retires. Sure, OT can cover manpower shortages...if they are not too great or go on for too long. Sooner or later mental and physical fatigue sets in.

Feel sorry for those guys and gals in DC. All summer vacations cancelled. And DC is hot, muggy and busy. There are going to be a lot of police with short tempers.
