December Wilding (UPDATE)
Gee, warm December weather, school out of session, what could have triggered this?
- Chicago police on Friday night were investigating a disturbance at Navy Pier.
Around 9 p.m., about 30 police officers blocked the entrance to the popular lakefront tourist attraction, saying it was temporarily closed. People were being allowed to leave Navy Pier.
Khaaliq Warner, a face painter at Navy Pier, said he saw a stampede of 50 people running away from the Winter Wonderfest area around 8 p.m. and saw three teenage boys handcuffed. People were talking about fights breaking out.
- A person was hospitalized and several people were arrested after a disturbance Friday night at Navy Pier.
About 8 p.m., 18th District officers responded to the disturbance at the popular tourist destination, police said. As of 10 p.m., police would not confirm that the disturbance was a fight.
But several media outlets reported a large fight had taken place, and police said that no gunshots were fired.
Some news outlets reported that as many as 200 people were in a fight at Navy Pier.
Isn't crime supposed to be down in the winter?
UPDATE: Five arrested, one pregnant female injured and a number of strong arm robberies reported during the melee.

A wilding incident at Illinois' #1 tourist destination, on a Friday night during the holiday break.... Rahm is gonna be pissed when he gets back from vacation!
This is what the democrats wants - a police force that sits on their hands.
In 1984 this would never have happened.
The City's Mayor is out of the Country---he can't seem to get out of here fast enough. He took three of the Youth with him--too bad he couldn't have taken the rest of the City's Youth.
Winter break
Could it be cpsstiudents wilding
Could it be private school students gone wild
Could it be suburban school students gone wild
No information on teens causing disturbance , fighting , wilding , inquiring minds want to know
it would be inappropriate to suggest that the parents of the "kids" depicted in the various media coverage be held responsible, though they always seem to be the first ones blaming the cops (and the world at large) when someone does the parenting job for them. i was also sort of surprised that the disenfranchised youths were physically messing with some of the reporters during the newscasts. when you know someone will stage a protest for you no matter what a cretin you are, you suddenly have a lot of freedom.
The word black was never mentioned.
Sounds like wonderful family entertainment. Bring the family to partake of the winter wonderland, and get cold-cocked in a melee.
I'm going to rush down there the First of Never.
Dam prep school teens.
Another Amish - Quaker Throwdown?
Or were those low-life Lutherans involved?
A really bad event - saw some coverage on the 10PM News.
Not a good thing for Chicago Tourism.
Won't be seeing me down there anytime soon.
Oh, oh. Time to close the beaches!
Here we go again with these stereotypes...
OT: Anyone invited to McStreetlight's wedding on NYE or know the location? No doubt Sneed will have gushing commentary after the fact.
If under 18 years of age, the scary, dangerous punks who commit crimes need to be arrested during the acts when possible and their parents brought in to be held accountable....that ought-ta be the law. No exclusions. Called 'Tough love'.
Got love it a large group of blacks male and female got to an area where it's mainly white and they cause all this damage. Does the news report how this group hurt white citizens??? Nope. Is it a hate crime when a black person. Harms a white person because the black person hates white people. Hell no but a white person does a crime against a black person. BOOM hate crime. How f$cked up is that !??
I am so tired of this and I am a 30 something, childless black woman on purpose. I am so tired of the over reproductive scum making my hard!
It wasn't a disturbance, it was a battery in progress. It wasn't 50, it was more like 1000. There was also a report of a man with a gun and shots fired, although never verified. Not to mention a call for teens smoking weed in the imax theater.
I'm sick of these damn Amish and Canadians kids ruining our city...
Every race is getting sick and tired of the black teens running around acting like thug fools. No black mommas coming out to condemn their actions. The media continues to conceal the race of the thugs...although they mention the race of every white officer and every unarmed and armed black "victim."
What a way to boost tourism and one of the most popular attractions in the State.
Just can't have anything nice anymore.
Savages gotta wreck it for all !
Keep it classy Chicago.
Gee, those Amish yuths at it again?
Whatever happened to the good ole days when the Downtown was safe from this idiocy?
Given that the names/ages/genders weren't given - one has to assume they're all minors. Personally, I think every single one of them ought to be brought in, and when their parents come to pick them up - see if they have any benefits given to them by the State.
If so, deduct the FULL cost of this nonsense from the EBT account. Once mommie and daddy have some actual skin in the game, this crapola will come to an end (after the predictable Sharpton/JJ marches of course).
No need to give free stuff to people who don't teach their kids to do right. If we do, we're just funding future prisoners - might as well lock them up now then...
Unbelievable!
Families from Northbrook and Highland Park were surrounded and terrorized.
They even stole the women's rings.
Hey, do you really expect McMissing to care? It's WEDDING WEEK!!! And Rahm is five thousand miles away!
Media will downplay it as a 'disturbance' by nonspecificed 'teenagers.'
I was there. SAD.
was it free pass friday??
i cant even afford to send my kids there.
Celebrate Diversity!
Savages are not stopped Rham's to Blame HE needs votes not law and order
Give Rham the Police force that he wants let it burn
Over exuberant youths....
Its all part of Kwanzzaa. A celebration of the inter-city youth.
M-1's robbing the mayor's son, shooting up the 95th train station, causing havoc on navy pier.... Just wait until the summer months roll around.
Look who is in charge of security at the pier. J.G. Enough said!
It was the after-party from the Calumet City rave. Nothing to see, just key-it's celebrating and taking a break from their winter studies.
Jessie, skinny Al? Your thoughts , better yet, are you rushing here to be in front of the cameras on this one?
Just axin
Can't we just throw some more money into some program so that "get their life together"?
Sarcasm off
If Obama had a Son he'd have been at Navy Pier. We should start calling these incidents, "Son of Bamarchy".
This is part of the change that we were promised nearly seven years ago.
Well I spent the beautiful evening just slightly over the cook county border with the wife and kids looking at the decorations still up after a nice dinner. Money well spent in a place that prided itself on clean streets and a nice family atmosphere. They can have the city.
Why is it always black teens? How come Mexican teens or any other race/ethnicity don't do this shit?
Da da da da da... I'm lovin' it!
As a black man born and raised in Chicago there are some postings here that are borderline offensive, but again this is where I come to get the real news. Chicago needs a leader to step up and say the following in regards to this: It stops today, the parents or legal guardians will be fined, penalized and even jailed themselves for this. You cannot cause chaos in a public destination and get away with it. Bad enough on Michigan Avenue but now Navy Pier during the holidays I am done.
What a mess what navy pier needs is an admission fee/tax whatever they wanna call it. If they have to pay they don't come. I don't go there wouldn't want to have to shoot anyone.
The real story is the many groups of punks that came from Navy Pier ran around River North and Streeterville. Watched them try to go to McDonalds on Ontario where police were waiting for them. Chicago Ave was not a good place to be with hundreds of these miscreants terrorizing by throwing bottles, fighting, etc. Choppers were overhead for hours, while police kept calling for CTA to send buses to get them out of the area. Heaven help the poor tourist stuck on a Red Line train when these idiots get on. Then there was a group that ran into a parking garage on Superior looking to cause more trouble. Everyone who lives down here should have a police scanner to know what is REALLY happening.
Damn pilgrims!!
I hope some of the people who were strong armed don't let this incident die.
I haven't heard any reports detailing the race of these jagoffs but a logical conclusion could be made.
We're behind the eight ball cuz the media will ignore a story involved the out of control black teens.
Why is it that EVERY story regarding a police shooting where a white officer shoots a black, the race of the officer is beaten to death but now too. Of last nites incident.
Get pissed, people!!!!
You Shitcago Democrats love having your family outings destroyed by racist mutts. It will never change because your vote will never change.
Enjoy the crime.hahahahaha.
Video? Only wat to prove to the media who is doing it?
Dear tourist (victim's);
Y'all come back now, hear.
The media sure limited coverage,if whites did this in 007/011/015 they would run it on the national news,wake up people "they" are coming to a town near you..
If you wanted parental (singular/female) involvement, tell her the police on the scene used a choke hold on her daughter.
Hellooooo Channels 2, 5 ,7, 9!
Maybe they were "protesters".
Was it those damn Amish youths again?
Pathetic how the department and media want to filter and sanitize certain things. Tell it like it is.
""

Nope they would just start burning and rioting and the Govt. would have to back off and keep the Honeybuns coming.
Its already proven that its perfectly legal to stand in front of a mob and repeatedly scream "burn this bitch down".
Besides no Pol has the balls to cut the free ride over something like crime. Its just the tax payers money and why would they care about the $$ of the suckers?
Dear Rahm and McCarthy,
How dare you endanger my husband's life with inadequate number of officers and lack of a plan for the wildings. There is not enough police on the streets to make arrests when these black ignorant youths terrorize the city. I pray that no officer gets hurt due to your lack of care for Chicago's employees, citizens, store owners and tourists. To the black youths committing these crimes, you are the very reason citizens don't like you. Thanks for showing the world you really are just animals.
"The Chickens Have Come Home To Roost"
Shame on the reporters for semi reporting this occurrence. The Rahm Father will be taking you out to the wood shedd for ruining his vacation and for even mentioning this incident with those poor youth, who merely had their hands out preparing to put them up an were so misunderstood.
Nice! Snotty nosed yutes, who just got through potty training not so long ago are running the city.
Who cares about economic development, trade shows, tourists. Laughing stock of the world.
Ridiculous! and Stupid!
I wonder if murders are up or down from 2013, we have to be getting close to that magic number. Anyone have access to those secret numbers? Death investigations totals?
Is it any wonder that no movie theater has lasted in the black neighborhoods? None whatsoever, have been successful and have made money, despite hiring large numbers of security guards and off duty police officers. The last attempt opened three theaters at 63rd Western and a few on Madison Avenue, they had black investors. All have closed.The theaters in Evergreen Plaza closed long ago. Ford City? No idea, I don't go there because of gang disturbances during the movies and after in the parking lots. Black teens just do not know how to conduct themselves in public when the numbers get too high. Racist comment? I don't think so, just my take on what I have seen. No wonder things go wrong at other venues in Chicago. i.e festivals, Navy Pier, beaches, Gold Coast. Probably the only way to get a handle on this is to charge admission to the Pier.
Let me guess they were black youth. You know the ones that matter but only if it is against the police.
I don,t believe this story. Not during Kwaanza !
Bring the family downtown. Pay $35 to park and hope that you escape alive. No thanks! It will be the same crap on New Years eve.
OOps !
I guess Monterey the clouted security can't handle the job their paid for.
It is alway bad news when companies hire NIT WIT teens to do security.
I hope the 2 officer assigned to the event had cuffs.
was it free pass friday??
i cant even afford to send my kids there.
12/27/2014 06:30:00 AM
In same boat here. My kids have to go to St. Barnabas.
Oh to be young and exuberant again!, almost all witnesses and victims were out of towners
I was working inside the festival last night.
Around 7ish 7:30 it got very busy. 150-200+ teens started running around, creating a stamped, then they started to fight, creating chaos. Guests were running for cover to hide. Kids were separated from their parents and crying, people were trying to figure out how to get out the back way. It was bad. Pier security and CPD were trying to get them out but they wouldn't leave and kept fighting. Eventually, they got them out but shut down the fest around 8pm and made everyone leave. So now you have 1000's of people all heading one direction....
As I was leaving (by this point about 8:45) the front of the pier was blocked off by CPD, a fire truck and ambulance had arrived, and there was still a group fighting in front. The media was all there too, although I'm a little frustrated about the lack of information they are providing, even 12+ hours later. I did not hear any gun shots, but it was still a scary situation.
All I can say is sad! Where is the family? I hate that this has racial undertones, but it is what it is. I tell my kids and the youth in my family if y'all get caught up in that kind of mess you better hope the police keep you!
It's not society responsibility to raise them, but something has to be done. Rahm Emmanuel needs to wake up and realize he has lost control.
Bam-archists.
Chicagospeak: No mention of race ALWAYS indicates BLACK
That's what happens when u make shit free. 25$ an hour to work security there off duty. LoL no thanks. Close down everything and surrender since everyone is afraid to do anything to these fukin mutts.Shitcago
Thanks Rahm you fucking azzhole.
I'm just curious why the media leaves the race out of this but not the "White police officer shot a black unarmed teen."
What's Pflegers excuse for his young black men and women who did this?
OT:
Idiot VP Biden was at the funeral of our two NYPD brothers this morning saying some words and spoke of Officer Ramos and tried to say something about Officer Liu but could not recall the officer's name and said instead, "his partner" sort of like "the other guy."
What a fucking moron! I sure hope Obama has good protection; I'd hate to wind up with President Biden.
In a thoroughly classy move, Police Commissioner Bratton posthumously promoted both officers to Detective First Grade, the treasured detective gold shield. Hell of a way to earn it.
Rest in Peace.
you voted this mayor into office now think twice before you again vote for a mayor for this once world class town, chicago is not a city anymore, its a town with all kinds of lawless behavior-visitor beware keep out!
People start using your phones to tape these animals and then post it on the Internet, that way the liberal white democrat can see exactly what their white guilt has wrought upon society. Of course if they don't rob you of your phone that is. Wake up America, the poor black community is out of control, they are creating a new generation of parasites that are even more violent and more Dependant on entitlements than ever before. Allowing them to use Ferguson and New York as rallying points to further the agenda will only make things worse.
Would this have occurred if Steve Gorgeous was in charge of 018? Bring back the gorgeous with his demonstrated expertise on display of executive crime fighting skills. Crimefighters in 018 get goosebumps fantasizing of his triumphant return.
Who was acting in such a criminal manner? Was it Sweeds, Germans, white middle class Americans? Who would act like that? Oh, wait. Is it the same group of people that constantly cry that the police are too hard on them for no reason? The same people that kill each other daily? That burn their own town down? Rob and steal from each other? The same people that get played by the political fools like Phlegar, Shapton, jessee jackass? One thing forsure though. The CPD is big time short on manpower. rahm better start hiring before it's too late, or no one will visit the tourist areas or move to Chicago. The tax payers will not come!
So White police defend themselves from attack by a person who is black and white officers are racist. But North Korea calls the black president a monkey and no one is in front of the consulate protesting. Makes you go Hmmmm. I'm sure he meant to say the cute cudly ones.
There has got to be a ton of my Youtube videos and Security video, could someone please start forwarding it to Fox so the world can see what's really going on.
Once again, the nation’s highest office holder’s city is showcasing urban culture. You got to be proud of this mecca of progressivism on display. Diversity is much more than a rainbow of colorful shades and hues side by side in harmony in a life’s craoyola box. What if lawful, civil behavior was a tenet for all this diversity stuff?
I would love to be in the board rooms of those connected business on the pier. I'm quite sure the colorful vernacular to describe these mobs would make a world traveled sailor blush.
Back in the day, the old Task Force and SOG guys, would have clubbed them like baby seals, and thrown them into the lake. The Libs, got the police force they wanted, while everyone else suffers.
Chicago media are nothing but COWARDS.
Is this what you thought u would become while sitting in Journalism 101??
You all probably though u were going to be hard-hitting reporters that would make a difference. HA!!!
Look in the mirror at what u have become....a friggin JOKE.
The mayor know. He take his vacation in Indonesia and South America. Chicago is not that safe of a place to vacation. The magnificent mile, navy pier, the lakefront, boystown too name a few are not safe anymore.
Whats next? Tourists being robbed in Englewood, Roseland, West Garfield Park, Austin. When this happens, then you know its game over. Stick a fork in the windy city, we out of here.
I'm waiting for "exuberant urban youth" to be bandied about by the local media.
suburbanites terrorized,,,aren't they the people who, as a whole, think Rham is doing a great job?
While the Rhamsters's away the children will play. Just wait until he gets back from Chile. There will be hell to pay. NOT! Wonder how the tourists liked the show?
There are several quite disconcerting elements at play with the activity that took place at Navy Pier last night that I am not going to purport to have a solution to..but I am gonna toss them out there anyway:
• Unless and until they change the law to permit concealed carry at locations like Navy Pier, the reality is that it is illegal to do so. If we aren't careful about suggesting that the law merely gets ignored, while it isn't going to be practical at every designated GFZ in Illinois it isn't difficult to envision sports facilities and places like McCormick Place and Navy Pier getting metal detectors and mandatory search....there are plenty of venues like that in other places in the US.
• There needs to be further discussion and development of what is a proper response to activity which crosses the boundary from legal protest into....."rioting, arson, looting, mob activity.....call it what you will......there seems to be general agreement that the old school approaches [Bull Connor - police dogs and water cannon] aren't acceptable, and the aggressive use of tear gas, CN, LRAD and other militarized techniques may certainly have a place but, the probably doesn't work in a space filled with families and kids like Navy Pier.
• What techniques can be deployed by law enforcement, and is there any role for the non-LEO public is such an event starts to occur in a place like Navy Pier.......I am not convinced that everyone drawing a firearm and commencing a gun battle is the right approach, but something needs to change.
If we have reached the point where the general law abiding public is denied peaceful use of the single BIGGEST tourist attraction in the State of Illinois during the middle of a holiday week something is badly broken and needs to get fixed and quick.
I live in Evanston and am downtown at least twice a month for what I will loosely call a "dose of culture". I pay a buttload of taxes, and myself and anyone else that lives here has the right to enjoy and use the institutions and amenities that make it worth [or should make it worth] putting up with the aspects of living in Chicago that can be difficult at times. When we start seeing a core cultural asset in Chicago such as Navy Pier, the Field Museum or Lincoln Park closed and unusable by the public due to uncontrolled bands of mutts, vermin and wild animals a line has been crossed. I am not going to accept it or tolerate it...not for one damn second.
My initial reaction would be for the creation of a something similar to the Haitian Tontons Macoute (Uncle Gunnysack) bogeyman, who were believed to kidnap and punish unruly children by snaring them in a gunnysack (macoute) and carrying them off to be consumed at breakfast. Unfortunately, the Toutons and substantially all of the other vigilante methods have consequences which preclude their use. However, if it means that we have to adopt alternative methods....which could very well represents a reduction in our civil rights [such as implied consent to stop and frisk without probable cause when entering certain public venues, and the immediate denial of government entitlements for the individual [and family members for two generations in either direction] once again an idea that is perhaps too extreme but it encapsulates a thought. I am reminded of the quote from Network....."I am as mad as hell and I am not going to take it any more".
any pics of these asshats?
In 1984 this would never have happened
You got that right!
We see these mobs destroy what would otherwise be pleasant shopping, late night walk, taking in a movie or visiting an attraction or two. The devil himself doesn’t want these wilders in hell. The devils fears the wilders would put out the fires, steal his pitchfork, increase baby mama drama tenfold and introduce court mandated section 8 housing. Lucifer himself fears the cost from section 8, link, cell phones, utility subsidies and SSI checks would bankrupt hell and put the devil himself out of business.
Looks like the are making changes. How come this was not the protocol all along?

Cops Turn Backs On De Blasio At Executed Officer's Funeral
"As Mayor Bill de Blasio took the podium Saturday at the funeral of P.O. Rafael Ramos, thousands of police officers in the streets watching video of the service inside turned their backs, in unison, to the monitors.
"Instead of listening to Hizzoner, whose brief remarks were carried live on large speakers and screens outside the Glendale church, the cops chatted and generally ignored the eulogy.
"The mayor — whom union officials have said has “blood on his hands” for rhetoric that has created a dangerous atmosphere for cops, and led to the assassinations of Ramos and his partner, Officer Wenjian Liu — arrived 30 minutes early to the service at Christ Tabernacle Church with wife Chirlane McCray by his side.
"A huge crowd of officers refused to acknowledge de Blasio, who quietly greeted Police Commissioner Bill Bratton and his wife before slipping into the funeral home adjoining the Glendale house of worship through a side door.
"The execution of Ramos and Liu as they sat in their patrol car in Brooklyn sparked a tidal wave of anger toward the mayor from the city’s cops, who turned their backs to him as he walked through a hospital corridor last Saturday night after visiting the officers’ grieving families.
"Earlier that night, when de Blasio approached a group of NYPD’s Finest and said, “We’re all in this together,” a stone-faced officer replied, “No, we’re not.”

Sorry for any embarassment to the families who were forced to step in this dreadful political mud puddle, but NYPD didn't put it there.
The pier has been gone for 5 years. The same goes for the taste. Groups of black teens acting like complete animals. Swearing, groping women and girls, picking fights with anyone non black, robbing people...Once tourists and families figure out that the pier is too dangerous the end is only a matter of time. Anyone remember when the pier was empty? 70's or 80's? The pier will be empty again. Thanks shitbirds!

Airplane Hauling Anti-De Blasio Banner Flies Above New York City
Updated: 43 minutes ago
"NEW YORK (AP) — An airplane hauling a banner insulting New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio has been spotted flying above New York City.
"The banner Friday read: "De Blasio, our backs have turned to you."
"The message evoked behavior by some NYPD officers and police union leaders last week who turned their backs to the mayor at a hospital after two officers were fatally shot.
"The officers' deaths followed protests around the country over the deaths of black men at the hands of white officers, and New York police unions have blamed de Blasio for allowing protests they say foster an anti-police sentiment.
"Former officer-turned-activist John Cardillo said Friday that retired and current officers paid to have the banner flown.
"A de Blasio spokesman called the banner divisive."

Is this what Rahm's future looks like?
To 12/27/2014 at 05:35 A.M.
I am no fan of McCarthy, but aren't you being unfair? Didn't he go to New York for Officer Ramos' funeral?
mcpier authority has been getting away on the cheap using cpd off duties not even paying scale wages,not worth the 25 pr hr to be in uniform and deal with all the baby momma drama that has been showing up down there.Make them pay dont work it,will the union cover you if you get sued and or cr # they have the tourist $$ if people dont feel safe visiting that overpriced place will crash
On a different note gang members in Baltimore have been loosening the lug nuts on private vehicles that have plates and stickers on them identifying them as possibly belonging to P.O.'s or their families. Be safe and check your private vehicles. This is another reason that I have nothing on my cars that identifies me as the police.
It would be a shame if the real facts of Rahms kids "Robbery" were released to the media. The little weasel sure is following in his fathers footsteps.
6.36am,,,,,,you owe me a new keyboard, I shorted it out when my Mountain Dew came spritzing out of my mouth reading your post
Don't feel bad for the suburban soccer moms, they all think the police are racist and use excessive force. Now maybe they will throw their "I can't breathe" t shirts in the garbage, which led a me to wonder if there were any of the young ladies from the Notre Dame women's basketball team in attendance.
I agree with 12/27...3:40am....put it on the parents or the single mom. The more the media harbors this crap, the more crap we'll get...those criminal youth are afraid of nothing...let their families pay the bill. Say it up-front, whatever the race is...give a full description so there is a dam real possibility of the bad guys getting caught. Look at how destructive these bad ones are..smashing and crashing into glass windows with beam ceilings falling upon 'em...they are fearless...the good guys have no chance. Lock em up and throw away the key. This stuff stinks and gotta stop...the media needs to be on the side of right vs wrong.
who cares! rahm the gov elect and the political appointed supreme court are about to steal our pensions!

This is one of many similar type incidents, that have occurred downtown, and on the lakefront. They have been occurring regularly over the last five to six years. They have a serious ECONOMIC FACTOR. These areas our the focal points for tourism in our city. Once people no longer feel safe visiting these areas. Well, you fill in the blanks.
Concealed Carry ? Who Wants To Be The Next George Zimmerman ?
Bottom Line: ONCE THESE AREAS GO, SO GOES THE CITY.
PS: Have A Nice Day !
Young black men are 3% of the population of this society. How much longer are we going to allow 3% of our population to terrorize the rest of us? They commit nearly half the murders and a large percentage of the batteries and thefts. When as a society are we going to say enough is enough?
You want to end this nonsense? Good luck in Cook County. If the police did arrest these assholes, the judges would not find them guilty and then the city would get sued. If you wanted to solve this problem, arrest all those involved, have the judges find them guilty and sentence them to a couple of days in county every time they get arrested for this and have them do 40 hours community service and pay $100 fine. If this actually happened, they'd stop doing this. You know why they do this? It's fun for them, nothing happens to them for it and they make the news. How cool is that? You can raise hell and terrorize suburbanites for FREE!
If the city doesn't do something to stop this, the visitors will stop coming here and the tax base will continue to dwindle, hurting the rest of us.
Why in the hell should these bastards be allowed to make Michigan Ave, The Water Tower and Navy Pier off limits for the rest of us?
I can't wait for a concealed carry person to smoke one of these thugs for terrorizing their family. Nice end to a nice night on the town...

12/27/2014 09:25:00 AM
Which ones? The white police or the white hypes? Either one would make for an interesting news headline I have to admit.
Screw all these savages who act up when they are in public, better yet just let the police come in and take proper action in subduing these animals and just watch all the liberal suburbanites , go Ooh and ouch, and complain that the police were too heavy handed with the poor kids, I only wish that these kind hearted people would be victims and then see how the Lake forest Richie riches would react. I can't wait to New Years Eve at Navy Pier. poor poor people going there to have a good time,
They have no fear of anything except immediate pain.....and you can't divvy that out anymore.
Be well John Spartan

As another black man I have to tell you that black people (and folks) are too thin skinned and not collectively forceful enough in disavowing this heathen behavior.
Why so much denial over this?
Why so much blaming society over this?
I've been working these streets for more than 30 years and I refuse to coddle, accommodate or make excuses for them and they HATE IT!
My family came from less than nothing sharecroppers who worked all day looking up a mule's ass but they KNEW they wanted better.
I worked my ass off and earned what I have.

12.40-----the North Korean Consulate? Are you that big an idiot? We've never have had diplomatic relations with the NorKs, ever. Did you think North and South Korea are the same country? Same shitty peninsula, that's about it.
I guess you slept through US History and don't pay true attention to current events.......you do realise that "Team America" was made using puppets, don't you?

So White police defend themselves from attack by a person who is black and white officers are racist. But North Korea calls the black president a monkey and no one is in front of the consulate protesting. Makes you go Hmmmm. I'm sure he meant to say the cute cudly ones.
12/27/2014 12:40:00 PM
Which consulate would that be Mr. Brainiac? We don't have diplomatic relations with North Korea, so there are no consulates to protest in front of.
Think before you post.
If one of these Honor Students were injured by the police, you know damn well it would be reported what the race of police officer and the gangbanger, I mean student was.
How about open carry of crossbows and harpoons for self defense......my bet is that a press conference with a half dozen Canadians laying on the ground with hunting bolts and harpoons sticking out of them would be national news. A update to "shock and awe".

My friend, the postings are the least of it. Much of the behavior criticized here is genuinely offensive -- unacceptable in a civilized society, which is circling the drain as a result.
People stop shooting each other and anything else within range, attacking each other and anyone else within reach, well, then maybe we'll see an improvement. Until that time, the police can only respond to the situations.

NO CAMERAS AT NAVY PIER???? It's only the #1 tourist attraction in the state.
Wouldn't it be safer if Tourists paid admission fees to public attractions, refunding some of it in the form of vouchers for use at another attraction or service?
It would certainly keep out the urbanites and fund the security post out front.

And we will continue to not hear about these incidents because the media is part of the government now. If it doesn't fit their template of tearing this country apart, it won't be reported. The good citizens of this country are running out of boxes.

Chicago needs a leader to step up and say the following in regards to this: It stops today, the parents or legal guardians will be fined, penalized and even jailed themselves for this. You cannot cause chaos in a public destination and get away with it. Bad enough on Michigan Avenue but now Navy Pier during the holidays I am done.

What's so offensive? The truth? Is it offensive to be upset with Muslims because the good ones don't get down right pissed off at the evil ones? If they are silent then we must assume they condone the behavior or they don't care. It should not matter what race, religion, or sex anyone is when it comes to evil. We should stand against it. Unless of course you are Al Sharkton, Jesse Jackass or the fake father Phlegar who all benefit from hate and criminal behavior. The good should fight the bad no matter what!

Is it any wonder that no movie theater has lasted in the black neighborhoods? None whatsoever, have been successful and have made money, despite hiring large numbers of security guards and off duty police officers. The last attempt opened three theaters at 63rd Western and a few on Madison Avenue, they had black investors. All have closed.The theaters in Evergreen Plaza closed long ago. Ford City? No idea, I don't go there because of gang disturbances during the movies and after in the parking lots. Black teens just do not know how to conduct themselves in public when the numbers get too high. Racist comment? I don't think so, just my take on what I have seen. No wonder things go wrong at other venues in Chicago. i.e festivals, Navy Pier, beaches, Gold Coast. Probably the only way to get a handle on this is to charge admission to the Pier.
12/27/2014 10:03:00 AM
The Lake Theater in Oak Park isn't feeling too safe either. You have Austin to the east and more of the same to the north. Then there is maywood to the West. The liberal Oak Parkers ignore the hordes of black thug youths hanging around outside and they rush out of there on their way home. Oak Park residents have been victims of street robberies for quite a while now. Black offender, white victim, of course. Just wait, it will get worse. No theaters in Austin or Maywood. The Jewel food store on Madison solves the food desert problem in Austin. Until they get sick of the usual problems and shut down.
My family used to live on Austin Blvd. Long gone.
Apparently alot of them can still breathe.

I am no fan of McCarthy, but aren't you being unfair? Didn't he go to New York for Officer Ramos' funeral?
12/27/2014 02:20:00 PM
And his going to a funeral has what, exactly, to do with him caring about what happened at Navy Pier? The man is in New York because a big city superintendent is EXPECTED to be there. Especially when the mayor of Chicago is too busy 5000 miles away, on his vacation, to attend. He doesn't get a little star glued to the top of his homework for going to New York. He wants the NYPD Commissioner job more than life itself. He couldn't NOT go.
McOutsider doesn't give a damn what happened at Navy Pier. It isn't his responsibility and, as I said, he's otherwise occupied this week.
But the Police are the bad guys
In a thoroughly classy move, Police Commissioner Bratton posthumously promoted both officers to Detective First Grade, the treasured detective gold shield. Hell of a way to earn it.
Rest in Peace.
12/27/2014 11:45:00 AM
It's sop to make them posthumous detective, not a 'classy move'. Their commissioner is part of the problem, in lockstep with their idiot mayor.

Jesse Jackson is leading a protest in the near future in Milwaukee, Wisc regarding a police involved shooting - Justifiable Homicide White Police Officer against a male black offender:
In December 1987 Jesse Jackson said this: "Look there--you see that? See that black guy and white lady out there playing golf together?" He sat back, silent for a moment. The truth is not what witnesses see for a brief moment of time rather it's reality the black man in the fairway was caddy man for the white lady but through Jesse Jackson's witness account its tailor to fit his political agenda!
"We've come a long way . . . and now politics is catching up."
Black on White Violence and White on Black Violence and Black on Black Violence and White on White Violence: it is what it is.
but everyone has a right to self defense.
The future is it really overtaking the past? 1965, 1975, 1985, 1995, 2005, and now 2015!
Another federal Civil Rights Investigation-How about Black on Black Violence isn't this too a civil rights violation against "Black Men"?
The journalists in this town are, for the most, children. All veterans are gone, laid off or forced into retirement. That said, it is management, not individual reporters, who make the decisions on what will be reported, i.e. descriptions of offenders, etc. So saying is this what you thought you would be doing while in journalism 101 is like asking cops today is this the kind of police work you thought you'd be doing while at the academy. Misplaced anger. The anger should be with the corporate media overlords (tv) and spineless cowards who run the city's print publications.
Maybe the lefties can hold a Die-In @ Ridge mall tomorrow for not allowing the poor teens more time to express themselves.

Arizona Police Officer and Suspect Die in Shootout
A police officer in Flagstaff, Ariz., was killed Saturday afternoon in a shootout while investigating a domestic violence case, the police said.
The gunman then fatally shot himself, the authorities said.
The officer, Tyler Jacob Stewart, 24, was the first Flagstaff officer to die in the line of duty in 13 years, and only the second fatality in the history of the Flagstaff Police Department, according to the authorities.
I used to take the Milwaukee Ave bus down to Navy Pier. Then the jackasses at the CTA decided to end the route downtown rather than continuing to the Pier. Less people from the NW side have easy access to events there. I stopped going down there when they changed the bus route.
Have fun with the kids that have direct transit from the hoods Rahm and Claypool. I'm not going down there any more.
I used to live in gold coast and streeterville. Great areas but beginning around 2009-2010, I noticed a sharp drop in quality of life as black thugs from the south side began coming into the areas to wreak havoc and mayhem. North Avenue Beach has become downright unsafe during the summer. Ditto Michigan Avenue, Navy Pier, etc. No idea what Rahm is doing. I live in NYC now and am surprised at how much safer it is than Chicago.

We can start by untying the hands of the police so they can do their jobs without fear of having their every move scrutinized.

Well first you have to quit your job so that you have nothing to do all day everyday except for march around and protest. Next you have to have an outlet to spread your message but since the media is already batting for the other side I don't know what you'd use. Maybe the internet? But they have their hooks into that pretty deep as well. You should have been starting your movements and defending the police long before this point because it really is too late now. My suggestion would be to stop patronizing the businesses and places where these "wildings" occur and get yourself a gun with a concealed carry permit because everyone is on their own now. The police have been de-fanged and there's no going back to the way things used to be. Other than that, just sit back with your gun and watch as society starts to crumble, martial law gets declared, your freedoms that you took for granted slowly get taken away, and a new police state gets formed. Then you will have Jack Booted police kicking in your door to take your gun that are worse than the criminals used to be. And we can all live happily ever after in our new socialist utopia!

Not for long. With a liberal democratic mayor who has tied the hands of the police and alienated them, I would think NY will be back where it was in the 1980's, s hell hole of crime. NYPD is a large force and did a great job but were backed by their mayor and commissioner. It does look like those days are over. Chicago needs at least 1000 more cops but will not get them under Rahm and that is the rest of the story!!

They're juveniles. Locking them up will just transfer the party to the lock up until momma picks them up. There are literally no consequences the getting arrested.
Scum-Times has the McD video and story. Police spokesman give a harm no foul answer. No injuries reported so why should police investigate. Well no injuries on most red light violations.
What do you expect with Rahm doing nothing? The other candidate Chuy marches with the anti cop protesters. They both enable and go along with this and the only real pro cop candidate Fioretti is beat up or gets no media coverage because of Rahms control. This all must end or we will never be safe.

Charge admission to events at Navy Pier. After Mayor Byrne's Chicagofest became the Waste of Chicago, it was downhill from there. You had to pay to get in to Chicagofest, it was in a well-defined, well-secured area, and it was fun! None of the crap we see now.
I've always respected the men and women of the CPD - you have the toughest job to do, and neither Supernintendo McStreetlights nor Rahmbo will let you do it. They're cowards, as are the media who continue to commit the sin of omission.
Maybe we citizens ought to start up one of those crowdfunding sites to make a few banner ads for the Chicago Anti-Tourism Office. "Visit Chicago! Don't start packing. (Show a montage of no gun zone signs at famous places)" or "Come to Chicago! World-class hospitals (clip of wilding victims at Northwestern Memorial ED)".
I'm not good at this, but there are a lot of SCC readers that are. Maybe if something like this actually happened, Tiny Dancer would soil his tutu.

I've been asked about running for public office... There is absolutely no room on the Chicago political scene for an old black cop who "thinks funny thoughts." As it is, the only blacks in local office are the ones with a vested interest in maintaining the status quo. Not a single civic minded, genuinely public service oriented one in the whole rotten Alinskite bunch.
Of course, expressing this sentiment makes you "racist against your own people."

However, if it means that we have to adopt alternative methods....which could very well represents a reduction in our civil rights [such as implied consent to stop and frisk without probable cause when entering certain public venues, and the immediate denial of government entitlements for the individual [and family members for two generations in either direction] once again an idea that is perhaps too extreme but it encapsulates a thought. I am reminded of the quote from Network....."I am as mad as hell and I am not going to take it any more".

We already give up our civil rights when we enter these privately run facilities. The Pier, Wrigley, Cellular and the Stadium all search you upon entering.
The last here do not allow off duty police to carry which is why I won't go there. I will not turn my safety over to private security.
These wildings will continue until the Mayor allows the Superintendent to allow us to arrest them. We are continuously told not to make arrests. It is dangerous for us and the tax payers. The only reason we are told not to make arrests is because we don't have enough officers in patrol. The Department manpower has been allowed to dwindle and our resources we have been badly mismanaged by a Superintendent that is not from here and does not understand that we are not New York and crime is different here.
I still remember a Compstat after he was here a year and had a tantrum when a Commander talked about a gang problem. McCarthy stood up screaming about all the talk about gangs. He insisted Chicago crime did pot revolve around gangs. The look on all the bosses faces was amazement. This was about a month after he proclaimed that weather had no impact on the crime stats. Again, stunned looks on the Command Staff.
