McLiar Says Media....Lies!
- Chicago Police Superintendent Garry McCarthy said Friday there’s a “lag time” between the perception and reality of crime that, in New York City, took five years to eliminate.
The gap between perception and reality in Chicago could take even longer to narrow, if Friday’s City Council hearing was any indication.
On the hot seat to defend police crime statistics, McCarthy talked of a city unfairly known as the murder capital of the world that had actually closed the books on July with a 7 percent drop in murders over the same period a year ago and the lowest number of murders since 1963.
And that's just in the Sun Times. The Trib is a bit more blunt:
- Chicago police Superintendent Garry McCarthy today defended the way the department keeps track of its crime statistics and took a shot at the media, complaining that news organizations often report crime numbers "without context."
His remarks came at a City Council committee hearing prompted by stories in the media and a report by the city’s top watchdog that have questioned Police Department statistics under McCarthy’s leadership.
Flanked by other department brass, McCarthy told about a dozen aldermen in attendance that violent crime in the city is at its lowest in decades but that message has been obscured by news coverage and social media chatter.
Citing a recent news story from WBBM-TV, the superintendent contrasted TV coverage of the recent violent Fourth of July weekend, saying stations averaged 4 1 /2 minutes of coverage, but on an Independence Day weekend 20 years ago that he said had even more killings, the media reports averaged 34 seconds.
But here's McNumbersGame comparing today's homicides numbers to 1963's. So it's okay if McLookAtMe compares numbers from previous years, but the media is naughty if they changed and adapted to the market 20 years ago? What an ass.
He also glosses over this:
He also glosses over this:
- McCarthy also discussed what he called false claims made by Chicago Magazine in two stories earlier this year that questioned if McCarthy's administration properly counted homicides and other crimes.
The magazine alleged that the department underreported the number of homicides in 2013 in several different ways, including incorrectly classifying some as death investigations. According to the magazine, the department has also been improperly classifying property crimes such as burglaries and thefts as misdemeanors instead of felonies, enabling McCarthy to claim that overall crime in the city is down.
As he has done before, McCarthy today pointed out what he said were a number of inaccuracies in the stories.
The city’s Inspector General’s Office released a 24-page audit report in April that showed the department had underreported aggravated batteries and assaults by about one-fourth in 2012.
The audit showed the department failed to follow state guidelines by counting each aggravated assault or battery as one incident, not each victim as it should have. But the report found no evidence that the department’s crime-reporting errors were intentional.
"intentional." Right. They just happened to skew in the direction that crime was down and strategies were working, regardless of what the numbers said in a system so corrupted that one of the NYPD creators of the program actively speaks against it as a truthful way of reporting crime.
And there were only a dozen aldercreatures there, so this was all show for campaign flyers. Complete bullshit.

Blame it on the fact that at 75% of the command staff have had at least one meritorious promotion. Meaning that they were not smart enough to pass a test. So how can you expect them to be smart enough to run this department.
If I get more event numbers and do more contact cards will that help??

And proud of it!
The only "lag time" McNitwit experiences is the time it takes for the bartender to serve his drinks.

"without context."
Translated: "without positive spin."
rb
LOL!
Shootings are up, McGoofball.
Murders are down because of the amazing work of first responders and incredible advances in medical technology.
But that wouldn't make for a nice narrative, so we'll just ignore that part, right?
"The audit showed the department failed to follow state guidelines by counting each aggravated assault or battery as one incident, not each victim as it should have."
What more proof does one need to realize the numbers being pushed are unreliable?
The number of murders are down 7%? OMG! Stop the Presses!
How many more shooting victims are surviving because of better medical treatment? Better EMT's, surgeons, and the experience from all the shot-up bodies they see every week?
Lessons they are learning from trauma surgeons that saved lives in Iraq and Afghanistan? Lives saved by new products like blood clotting bandages and tourniquets?
Lowest since 1963, But still worse than NYC, Detroit, New Orleans, and every other major city.
You obviously need MOAR GUN CONTROL!!!
Lowest since the 1960's (1963)
When did we start passing Gun Control Laws? Wasn't that in the 1960's?
"There has been a decrease in the Increase..."
Hahahahahahahahaahahahahah...!!!
Wait until this Rick Simon yacht scenario is exposed. This is going to get bad.
I think Garry is in a little trouble here. Everybody can see through the B.S.
Weasel words.
Slippery syntax.
Half truths.
Lies of omission.
("Whoops! We misspoke!")
Restricting information
for the sake of plausible
deniability.
Wanting to "take down that blog" because they're angry that they can't move their agenda forward in total secrecy and impunity.
...Which indicates that they have no intention of doing right by the men and women of this Department and the taxpayers who pay the disproportionate amount of the freight to make Chicago go.
...Which means that the mayor and stupidintendent do fully intend to conceal themselves from ever being held truly accountable for the lack of a coherent, common sense strategy to try and check the savage butchery and nigh near cannibalism on the streets of the South and West sides without stealing much needed Police resources from areas populated by decent people bearing the brunt of Urban Death Cultists flocking from their Police saturated breeding grounds to predate/spew death and destruction where the Police AIN'T.
Changing the meanings and definitions of words and terms from the well established plain and simple common sense English of the common sense man to something sublimely ridiculous and fully contemptuous OF the common sense man.
Madly gyrating, thoroughly juked, bojanked and made to take it in the ass while doing a back bend statistics.
Incredible? So are those stats drunkenly crashing into each other in McWetBrain's hot and feverish mind.
Good men can't even begin to conjure this eye watering shit without sweating, screaming, shitting the bed, dying and rotting miserably in it.
Anyone putting any credence in what this way overpaid, way underperforming law enforcement gypsy chimney shaker spews from his lying cake hole or any numbers pertaining to crime and or CPD manpower is a bigger fucking cretin than he is.
This being Chicago...
Sweet Salvation on an Ass, there is no lack for cretins in this town.
Jesus Wept and still does.
Every good man with an intact conscience and a soul should too.
Emanuel, McCarthy, The City Council, the Exempts and the media are hate filled savages just like the Death Cultists burning this city to a crisp.
Spin and defection.
Deflection and spin.
When we hear national media always mentioning the carnage on a Chicago streets when guns are the subject then you know things are pretty bad here.
What kind of drugs is this east coast wonder on?
Noticing how quickly and quietly this settlement was reached I don't think Sgt Padar and company will be criminally charged.
http://www.chicagotribune.com/suburbs/glenview/ct-glenview-lawsuit-settlement-tl-20140731-story.html
I thought McCarthy was going to get canned? Why is he still here taking up space?
Yep, crime isn't around Chicago. Let's see how many people are shot THIS weekend.
I hope Chalkie is working overtime this weekend.
Only a dozen aldermen showed up? Then as far as I'm concerned that's all the aldermen that the city needs. Get rid of the rest of them. Save Chicago some money.
How many fewer citizens are there today compared to 1960's?
I am so ashamed and completely disgusted to say that this guy is the Superintendent of Chicago Police and, that I am affiliated with him.
Perception is reality.
Surround yourself with (meaningless) people behind you and it's perceived that you are an accomplished leader.
Nietzsche had theories on interpretations in that people see what they want and perceive what is true by what is the current trend.
GMac is attempting (at the behest of Rahm Emanuel) to alter the perception of crime. He's not concerned with the actual crime but the result it creates.
Their powers are diminished if the statistics are true. Their manipulations are designed to less than truthful.
DUMP RAHM - 2015
Pay No attention to the man behind that Curtin.
I'm just a citizen who tries to understand all of this stuff and I can see that McCarthy is BS-ing as is Rahm and most of the Press. They report what they are given---unlike the olden days, they do not do any actual reporting on their own.
My guess (and most other people) is there are more murders/shooting and all crimes than are reported. Not to mention plenty of crimes go un-reported because there are a limited number of CPD to respond.
CAPS in not the police and neither are cameras. More and more people are becoming dis-enchanted with the problems as the more minor crimes affect them. How many times do you need to get broken into before you get disgusted and leave the city?
All the detective just received orders to classify all AGG bats correctly by changing the UCR codes.
Of course only the one that will downgrade the truth.
The alderman need to put Mcarthy under oath and make him sign an affidavit that he is telling the truth.
If he is caught lying use the Rules violation and put him before the Police board for conduct unbecoming
and falsifying a police report and official misconduct.
The Alderman then start lining up exempts who will testify that they were ordered to do this or be fired and NO PENSION!
Very easy if RAHM wanted to find the truth.
.
McCarthy is delusional with his crime figures. Lowest number of murders since 1963? 7 percent drop in murders over the same period a year ago?
Smoke and mirrors crime fighting by the numbers. This is how you fight crime? Manipulate the numbers by finding a small difference in numbers at a point in time that shows that in 1963 by the end of July there were less homicides then by the end of July of 2014. How was it in 1863?
This is not reality McCarthy? This is delusional thinking. No one believes your numbers except delusional people like the mayor, etc.
When will McJagoff realize and be held accountable for solely ruining the greatest police organization in the United States. McFailure is without question the best bullshitter this city has ever seen, he may be even better then the national bullshitter, Obama.
But what will it take to stop McBlockage, I mean McLiar from bringing the city to its knees under the mask of "crime is down" week after bloody week. He has made history and will always be remembered for the damage he solely has done to our once great city and police department.
This McFucker really needs to GO, and in the words of the ministers "let this city begin to heal."
Liar, liar, pants on fire!
Chicago Top Cop Blames Constitution for Gang Violence Shootings
July 7, 2014 by Daniel Greenfield
http://www.frontpagemag.com
If the voters in Chiraq want to believe McPantsOnFire then let them. In the long run it hurts those not directly affected by the violence. Property values will decline, fewer tourists will come to town with their money, and taxes will just continue to climb under these tax and spend fools.
Hopefully the media will continue on this current path of truth. After all, the media will be losers too as the citizens switch them off because of lack of trust.

True, many new techniques saving lives of scumbags who would do society a favor but taking a dirt nap! Speaking of blood clotting bandages went to a class at o'hare airport on the use if these and how to use them, promised we would have the "kits" when the class was over ahh that was in February 2014, and still no kits to save someone severely bleeding, waste if time guess federal money for the class's but nothing to buy the kits! Why even have classes to waste time but no follow through with equipment?
Rather than suing to make public complaints against officers, they should sue to have every police report made public. At least the original case report with certain info redacted. If a case was reclassified all of the reports justifying the reclassification too.
(OT) army is cutting 550 officers but plenty of taxpayers money for illegals here!
http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2014/08/02/army-to-force-out-550-majors-some-to-get-news-while-in-afghanistan/
Ok, let me jump in here with some facts from Wikipedia. Chicago's population in 1960 was 3,550,404. In 2012 (last census) is was 2,714,856. That's a decline in population of 835,548 people. The current murder rate in Chicago is 29 per 100,000 meaning that the number of murders for that 800K+ would be about 345 for the year. Divided by 12 months that would pro=rate about 28 more murders per month or 230 more for Jan-Aug this year. On top of the approx. 220 we already have, that's 450 murders YTD. Extrapolating these numbers you would have 115 murders from Aug-Dec based on the missing population; 150 more murders from Aug-Dec based on an average for each month of only 30. 115+150=265 more murder for 2014 on top of the 450 we should actually have (based on the 1960 population) giving us a grand total of 715 minimum for 2014. So, what's it mean? If we have the 1960 population today, the murder rate - even with medical technology as is - would be about 700 + per year. McNumbnuts? Comments?
HaHaHa and Rham wants to bring illegal immigrant children to Chicago the MURDER capital of the USA to save them from violence in their country. It's about the votes and future votes.
skip the merit promotions and promote some blue shirts to commander . pick the blue shirts that passed the sergeant test and was passed over .
Britain did the same thing after they took all the guns away from its subjects.
Their violent crime rate went through the roof. But the police chiefs found an "Other" category that suddenly sky-rocketed. And the violent crime rate suddenly subsided at the same time. LOL!
Absolutely Any Comparison of Death stats between the 1960's and today is absurd, because of the strides that have been made in emergency medical care since the 60's. In addition, in the 1960's the population of Chicago was not in the decline it is currently experiencing. But getting back to the deaths, I have seen people shot and surviving today, who would have been dead under the same circumstances, 5, 10 or 15 years ago. And to watch the Aldermen sit there and not raise intelligent challenges to this; it was like watching the old Soviet Union under Stalin. I am retired CPD, and have stayed here but it is sinking in that I have to move. The Post-Election Property Tax will be the last straw.
Sick of hearing percentages thrown at crime stats. 1 homicide, burglary, battery, assault, or theft is too many. Now go out there for the watch and protect the property and citizenry of the city and observe the first rule of law enforcement and go home to your family safe. They send one of yours to the hospital you send one of theirs to the morgue. That's the Chicago Way! What are you prepared to do about it?
http://chicago.cbslocal.com/2014/07/30/despite-media-coverage-chicago-violence-down-significantly-from-20-years-ago/
Channel 2 investigative report might surprise a few with their findings.
Murders down by half from 20 years ago,same for aggravated battery and aggravated assault.
Knocks down the argument about the city population almost the same 2.8 compared to 2.7 million
and finally shoots down the argument of better trauma treatment. Dr did study of all the trauma cennters and trauma hospitals and study shows less shooting victims now than 20 years ago. Just sayin. Watch the report its a good comparison from 20 years ago.
What will McPissPot say when most of the Area North supervisors wind up going to jail? Huh? Huh? "It's an illusion!"
What a slap in the face for the media. Maybe now they won't be Rahm's bitch and do whatever he tells them to do.
So McCarthy used scarce police resources to investigate TV news reporting in 1994?
Whelp time to try to change the talking points again. This time to the number of seconds the media spends reporting crime..hahaha seriously???
Hey, try rolling out those nasty self-animating guns again that Garry has taken off the streets like that's some sort of metric that proves a reduction in violence.
Ot - busy night Friday night in 011. Not a word From 1100 on the radio. Looks like he is striped, which he should be. I can't wait till he is gone and that whole front office is outta of the 011 Dist. They just failed westside is a different animal than the Southside. Xo TL aka steve busciemi you will be gone shortly as well. It was a nice ride you destroyed the 011 Dist literally shooting are at an all time high morale is at an all time low. You guys ran every sgt outta of the Dist . But hey contact cards and anovs are through the roof.
How many MS-13 drug cartel members has Rahm let into the community this week so that he can collect some federal aid dollars??
OT. To all you Ed Burke supporters on here claiming hes a cop just like us, how do you explain the fact the he presented none other than former GD leader Wallace Gator Bradley with a city council resolution a few days ago. For all the community work he does.
Scc what is this little tid bit??? Tell us more remember it's all on the hush hush......

Chicago Police Supt. Defends Crime Stats At A 'Charade' City Council Hearing
There were less than 20 aldermen at today's three-hour hearing, held by the joint committee on workforce development and public safety, which did not have a quorum.
In remarks to reporters after the hearing, Progressive Caucus member Ald. Bob Fioretti (2nd) asked, "What did we really have at the end?"
"We only had a couple of aldermen. We didn't have a quorum for the committee," he said. "What does that say about what we're doing as a city council, as a city and as elected aldermen here?"
"What kind of charade did we see today? It's typical of the administration, and then they didn't get to the questions that were necessary. We can compare data ... from 20 years ago. So what? ... I think we can all agree with the superintendent that crime is driven by poverty, lack of educational resources [and] the inability to address those resources. But what did this administration do? They closed schools. They turned their backs on communities."
If only twenty aldermen showed up what do the people of Chicago need 50 aldermen for, they are not representing us?
You want to threaten to cut services because of the pension crisis?
I think we know where to start cutting and it's not by letting the terrorist political apparatus use the children as tools to justify higher taxes either.
Noticing how quickly and quietly this settlement was reached I don't think Sgt Padar and company will be criminally charged
You may have something there. That legacy thing has become a real boondoggle
Here is the plan as started years ago by Daley. Close the projects where for years the crime rate was equal to 3rd world countries and received the same amount of media coverage.
Hope the residents move to suburbs where they can deal with the problem.
Rahm comes in and takes the next step by closing 50 public schools and hopes that forces more to flee the inner city.
Is the plan working?
No, it just spreads the problem all over the metro area making more people to flee elsewhere.
McI'mjustheretoBS's whole job is to placate his boss by lying through his teeth at every interview he gives.
Why not interview the cops that have worked the inner city and see what they have to say?
Rahm asks: "Where are the parents"
Some of them are still in Central America and Mexico because of the human trafficking operation that you endorse, Rahm.
The drug cartel coyotes are really raking in the doe from this operation. $7K and more per kid.
I suppose the real reason the child trafficking operation was set-up was that the cover was blown off the DOJ's gun running operation so...
remember: "once the drug cartels are here it's like the H1-N1 virus a while back when the leaders of this country boldly told us:
"...it's are already here. Trying to do anything about it now would be like locking the barn door after the horses got out"
Critical thinking skills mother %&*%ers, do you have them?
GMac's analogy is like comparing the 1960's "chrome Rohm Saturday Night Special" with a 21st century military grade pistol. All of his analyses should be weighted accordingly. What's to stop him and 9.5 from comparing current murder stats with 19th Century Chicago ?
Idub thee Garry McDrunkenstein.

You have a computer and you are connected to the internet. Look it up.
I wonder what the response time was in 1963 when they didn't have a citizen with a Obama phone standing next to the victim dialing 911 before they hit the ground. You think that might be the reason some many people are not killed from they're gun shot wounds
Mcnumbnuts and Rahm the Dumb could ask for help from the federal government (Project Exile with minor changes) and go after the hood rats, but the U.S. Attn. General prosecution on firearm crimes is the lowest on record. EVER. Got to have the narrative to ban firearms....

July ties the record for coolest ever in Illinois
WREX-TV-Aug 1, 2014
CHAMPAIGN, Ill. (AP) - The state climatologist says last month's relative chilly temperatures tied the record for the coolest July in recorded Illinois history
People deserve to know the truth. Area detectives are told to classify home invasions as "forcible entry burglaries" which everyone knows is a lie. How can someone kick in your front door, duck tape you to a chair, then ransack your house not be a home invasion. This is not a crime that should be hidden from the public. Later on if the offender is caught they can't upgrade it past a burglaries so the guy gets the same punishment as if he broke into someone's house when no one was home. On scene when they come out they are told to force the officer to reclassify the report otherwise they will on there end. This has to stop!!
Bring back old school policing. TRU MSF did a job and it worked. Oh ya hire 3000 more cops
McMakestuffup can really spin. he should have been at Area 2 (I still don't call it south) on 04 July call outs were non stop. Shot in the head, shot in the head, shot in the head, this ones dead, shot, shot in the head , shot, dead.
I did not see any lag time, but the register was sure ringing.
The failure of McBrokenWindows crime fighting cannot be made more visual then by the endless graffiti that one can see spray painted and etched in glass across the city.
No numbers are produced to measure this tho as the Mayor and Supt continue to talk out their academic asses.
Yeah, Chicagos' Broken Windows crime fighting is suppose to send the message that breaking a window, tagging a building, will not be tolerated in this community and therefore the more serious crimes will be prevented.
Yeah, look around 26th street as one example don't you see it working?
Get that minister of information, that Baghdad Bob guy they called him on the mayors staff.
Ol' Bob can tell the people of Chicago "there's no graffiti within 100 miles of here. we fought the taggers and they fled to the back"
The same bullshit speeches can be given that were given about American troops in Baghdad when Bod talked about tanks and the invasion of his Iraq.
It takes a special kind of guy to stand up with a straight face and pump out this kind of bullshit.
Ironic. McCenterOfAttention whines that the media lies and their numbers can't be trusted.
Yet, he pounds on the door of every media outlet whenever he has some message he wants to get out, or some spin he wants to put on an issue. Why would he do that if the media is not to be trusted?
I was reading about the former Gang Leader Angelo Roberts and ran across this in one of the articles I read in the Tribune from 1995.
"The slaying of the man tentatively identified as Roberts was one of nine homicides over a bloody stretch beginning about Saturday and lasting through Monday morning. Eight of the homicides were shootings, and three of the victims were teenagers. At least 27 other people were injured by gunfire over the weekend."
How is Chicago any different than 20 years ago? Media still reports the same.Violent weekends are news, but I don't really recall them being front page news. 4 1/2 minutes on a weekend where 82 people were shot seems about accurate(not 8 and "a few dozen" like CBS claimed). That "bloody stretch" of violence from the 90s still happens. I'm just sure none of them were considered death investigations. Hell, by today's standards it would be unclear for about a year & 2 months how Angelo Roberts died.
(This in response to a article CBS released)
Wow, this story is a bombshell! I have to give Carol Marin credit for putting it all together, this is good journalism:

What a bunch of crock!
If I make a decision to live in, work in, or visit Chicago based upon crime stats and it turns out the stats are falsified; do I have a case to sue the City if I am a crime victim? Come on lawyer's, let's hear it.
How many assholes can fit in this clown car? Lets compare stats to 50 years ago?! Who gives a shit? Crime is rampant north, south, west, and central. Why doesn't McCunt get off the soapbox and do something proactive. And if you are so scared of your boss that you're afraid to shit without permission then you need to move on. Have a nice day.
McRahmsyesman is right. There is "perception vs. reality". The public's perception is that he knows what the fuck he is supposed to be doing. The reality is, well, you already know that...
So let me get this straight - using Chicago's counting method...
Columbine = 1 shooting
Georgia Tech = 1 shooting
Fort Hood = 1 shooting
Sandy Hook = 1 shooting
There, all better now
I like McCarthy.
Dear SCC,
Whoever runs and narrates this site
Has fucking balls of steel.
Whoever you are, thank god for you're little tidbits of truth.
Whoever you are, I hope you are high level CPD or the same being retired, because this kind of commentary gives me hope in humanity considering the shit hole and corruption you have to deal with.
My sincere hats off to you bad motherfuckers with the balls to be
Willing to speak the truth without a diatribe of political bullshit and in simple paragraphs pointing out the stupid press release BS and propaganda puke spit out by incompetent elitist "leaders".
The format at SCC is leading the way across America and is/will be a model across the USA to expose the corrupt cocksucking liar political fucks with no moral values.
Thank you men, and I don't use the word "men" loosely.
Back in the day ,(now I sound as old as I am) there was news at 6 and 10..no "morning show", no 4:30 preview after the 4 pm early news, and certainly no cable news networks keeping it real. Ron Burgendy gave the "true" news before heading over to Barney's Market Club to meet up with the "ladies". But of course, they could not do their stuff before that fact checking dynamo DAN RATHER gave us the first reading. Give me a break, even the liberals understand how f'd up this reasoning is. I've been on the fence but this dude is worse than the sorry ass losers on The Wire…and those guys were made up.
Wonder why all the News Affairs Directors keep leaving??
CPD Upper Command Staff should all be charged under RICO.

I seem to recall many clout monkeys from Bridgeport and Beverly in that unit back in the nineties.
Could we get a Bridgeport or Beverly Bob/Bev to start answering questions on McCarthy's behalf?

Bring back the TASK FORCE Circa 1968!
"Flanked by other department brass..."
Jeez... The city is still putting on these Soviet era beauty pageants?
Can you look at the pictures (just like in Pravda of old) and tell who is out of favor with the Politburo aka those in the "Inner Party Rolodex of Evil?"
These incompetent-assed, clouted by gestation, affiliation, ingestion, injection or a combination of all of the above gold stars should be giving thanks that they don't have to face being marched off to a sub basement in the Lubyanka and given a state ordered bullet to chew on...
Rahm and the media would love to see a bunch of us marched off for execution anyway just because we wear a blue suit of clothes with a star pinned to our chests.
>Pfffft!<
Policemen are literally being run down on the streets anyway...
Police like you have no friends.
Remember this season of hatred.
Hopefully we can one day witness
revenge being taken for our compounded
grief and aggravation.
It's not because a Policeman did or didn't do
a damned thing... It's because a Policeman
represents a now bygone ideal and the
powers that be are seeking to destroy any
collective memory of that ideal because it's
outmoded to them and they had no hand in
shaping it. Thus they feel that no one should
have any use for those ideals or the people
who bitterly cling to them.
-How Societies and Civilizations Are Destroyed 101-
Attack, dismantle and cause to rot from within, those institutions with know-how, collective muscle memory, cherished martial and public service traditions.
"In The Name of The LAW!"
Not "In the name of whatever suits the whims of mean, cowardly and fickle men like a mayor, a city council, community activists and the media."
Do we have mutual understanding now?
Just another Sunday rant from a: "Too old, mean, brutal, 'typically a high school drop out', insensitive, racist, hateful, 'angry cuz it isn't 1960 anymore' Chicago Cop standing in the way of progress and change!"
The silly progressive children clap their hands and are giddy with joy over CPD being "forced" to change.
They're a bunch of cowards because they don't have it in them to address the real problems at hand.
It surely isn't The Police rendering vast swaths of this city into festering fever swamps of wasted resources, hatred, willful ignorance, artfully avoided responsibility and death worship.
An answer is being forced by relentlessly attacking The Police by virtue of them actually having rules to abide by and doing just that for the most part.
The same Police tasked with trying to do something about those fever swamps. With one hand tied behind their backs.
Something I don't hear mentioned when it comes to crime stats is the fact that a great deal of people (have to) avoid places throughout the city that they'd likely get mugged, raped, mugged and raped and shot, etc. That, listen Gery, can lead to a *perception that an area is safe.
Chicago hasn't changed at all since probably 20-30 years ago. And nothing will ever change.

Significant changes in violence in Chicago are indicated by the ever rising number of times a week that there are reports of police being shot at, the increase in instances where police must use their weapons against armed people. That did not seem to be the case 20-30 years ago or even 10 years ago. It's a much more violent society out there now. More weapons and shootings. I don't know whether homicides are up or down, I'll take the Superintendents word on it but when you see citizens in historically less violent neighborhoods openly destroy police cars during picnics and parades, it appears to the average citizen that the city is lost. A lot has changed and it doesn't seem to be for the better. I truly wish it can change back to what it was.
Bring back old school policing. TRU MSF did a job and it worked.
