Fifty Calls, No Response
- The full extent of the damage done by the violence and rioting in Baltimore is graphically revealed today.
Dozens of shops, businesses and gas stations were burned and ransacked across the city as the streets were turned into a 'war zone'. Shopkeepers told Daily Mail Online that they fled in terror as looters rampaged in as they were still inside - and stole everything. A family of four had to flee their apartment above the liquor store they owned when it was set ablaze underneath them. And a gas station owner said that he had lost $53,000 after his store was ransacked. An empty ATM was smashed open during the frenzy.
Rajneesh Nagpal, 39, was furious that he had called the police 50 times but nobody came to help him.
- After Baltimore descended into chaos, remember that Gov. Martin O’Malley was so proud of the anti-gun law he got enacted into 2013. We have seen that Baltimore police did not or could not defend people – and O’Malley’s law makes it far more difficult for citizens to acquire the means to defend themselves.
- The president of the Baltimore City Council apologized for calling rioters “thugs” at a press conference Tuesday, calling those responsible for the violence “misdirected” youths. Standing side-by-side with self-proclaimed gang members, Jack Young said that gang members stood in front of stores to prevent looting and retracted claims that gang members were targeting the Baltimore police.
You read that correctly - the City Council leader is standing with known gang members and apologizing to rioters. Gamgs that necessitated this being issued nationwide:
Hope and Change!

This job used to be fun.
keep voting democrat
Can we put a fence around the place, evacuate the decent people and then call it day?
A day. Call it A day. Fat fingers.
Been listening to the BPD dispatcher for two days now, hasn't been one call of any officers being shot at. Word is the threat was bullshit.
I recall riots in LA, when Korean, Black and White small business owners sit in front of their stores with rifles and shotguns. The rioters left those stores alone. They were not looted or burnt. Lesson to be learned there. I believe in most states it is legal to shot someone that is intent on looting or burning your business.
Baltimore: The mayor is a liberal democrat, the city counsel are all liberal democrats and the police force is run by liberal democrats. The city has been a liberal democrat stronghold for over 50 years. What do you expect?
The Crips, Bloods, and BGF agreed to a truce. The truce was put together by members of the Nation of Islam.
Sorry guys, it was just a truce, nothing more.
I had to read that three times because I thought I mis-read that.
>Joyful Weeping<
Called 50 times and no Police response...
It's beautiful.
Vilify The Police for being aggressive and out of control.
Threaten The Police with loss of employment, destruction of their families, imprisonment, loss of their homes and assets to pay punitive damages to Dude Inc...
Then the wet-eyed hand wringing when The Police, given the current climate, don't/can't/won't "man up" and respond "aggressively?"
The democratic urban center progressive/catered to constituent agenda focused like a laser beam on defanging and declawing The Police and greatly disincentivizing aggressive response to urban encounters.
"WE WON AGAINST THOSE BRUTAL, RACIST COPS!"
Why yes...
Indeed you did win.
...What ya gonna do now?
It sure as shit ain't the eeeevil, racist Po-leece running around in mobs and setting shit on fire.
"We're giving them space to destroy..."
"I didn't say THAT! I was taken out of context."
Sparkle-Farts will be true to form and blame The Police for this shit-show...
"Y'all actin' stupidly an' shit."
USAG-In-Training, Loretta Lynch has fired up
the 1983 Bus under which many a poor Copper will soon find themselves under.
>BRRAAAP! Pop-POP-BLAM! BRRRAAAAP!<
Shit...
She'll have that raggedy m/fer doing a wheelie from D.C. to Baltimore and all points west.
Spirits of the air say the same professional shit starters from Ferguson and NYC have migrated to B-More.
"We mighty cuz we loud!"
Dude on the TV is going on about how The Police have to be changed.
Ain't sayin' shit about the change that needs to happen in these democrat run urban centers.
family members who swear that 1) “he is such a good boy.” 2) “Honor Student” at MLK High School, because he went to school twice a week 3) he went to church and sang in the choir once, and starting a promising rap career. But he got with the wrong crowd. 4) But this incident came from no where. 5) he was trying to turn his life around when it happened. 6) you’re racist if you dare question anything about this kid’s past or his behavior. 7) he was a good baby daddy to his 5 chillin. 8) all those previous 18 arrests was all by racist cops! 9) he didnt doo nufin.”
Since when did street gangs in this country become a voice for the public!... If you want to consider them upstanding citizens over the police. Then let them handle your neighborhood, I'll take all those coppers that they think are destroying their community in mine with open arms!
ANY politician who tries to ban weapons or weaken the Second Amendment should be kicked out of office.
If you're an elected official, you take an oath to uphold the Constitution.
Trying to weaken the Second Amendment? That's treason.
Next case.
We are definitely heading into an era that ANTHONY BURGESS predicted in his classic A CLOCKWORK ORANGE, where the savage will be offered apologies and rewards (patronage jobs?) for telling the clueless (and soon to be targeted) progressive libtards that he has not been mistreated nor discouraged in any from doing what comes naturally. The rest of us should practice regularly at local suburban ranges and keep those FOID/CCW permits on our persons. The inmates are most definitely in control of the asylum.
I wonder what Rahm and his CC lackeys will do when it happens here?
Police have been told to stand down in every place that "misdirected youth" get out of hand.
When do the mandatory sensitivity classes for CPD begin at St Sabina?
"The president of the Baltimore City Council apologized for calling rioters “thugs” at a press conference Tuesday, calling those responsible for the violence “misdirected” youths. Standing side-by-side with self-proclaimed gang members..."
First Mayor "Give Them Space To Destroy," now this.
Is this the "black community direction of the police department" that one demonstrator here in Chicago was demanding yesterday?
"The full extent of the damage done by the violence and rioting in Baltimore is graphically revealed today...." by a newspaper in freaking England.
"Rajneesh Nagpal, 39, was furious that he had called the police 50 times but nobody came to help him."
Yup, just took all his Swishers and put their hand in his chest and shoved him into the potato chip rack, "Gentle Giant"-style.
It's OK. The gang leaders in Balto. are going to have a walkaround in all the districts to "address concerns" and "improve community relations."

I love the part where they were passing out bags for looting before it started. Just like an Easter egg hunt....

Lovely museum, wonderful event.
Why is there not a single black face visible at this commemoration of The Great Emancipator?
For shame.
The sound bite of the demonstrator here demanding "black community control of the police" is still being played on WBBM radio this morning.
Ot... hey guys does anyone have any idea when they may make ets off the new list, and bout how many?
Jack Young is a disgrace to the office he holds. I hope some of his "misdirected" gets directed to his house and they tear it up like they are so good at doing.
Perhaps the socialist/commie "leadership" in Baltimore should follow the advice of one of their own, namely Joseph Stalin who said "when all else fails, resort to harsh repression".

Gang fight causes $10K in damages to cemetery
4/28/2015 9:57 PM
"A gang fight inside Mount Olive Cemetery led to a car getting stuck on a headstone and about $10,000 of damage to other headstones Tuesday afternoon...
"Three cars were in the cemetery on Narragansett Avenue in the Dunning neighborhood before 6 p.m. Tuesday when members of two cars started fighting and the third car fled...
"At some point, one of the remaining two cars hit ten headstones and got stuck on top of one. Police took two people into custody from that car.
"The other car was stopped in the area and the driver was taken into custody on suspicion of driving under the influence...
"Evidence technicians were requested to take pictures of the stuck car before it was towed from the cemetery."

Boy, I have been going past that place and heard some WILD s__t echoing out of there. Drive jammed with rides and rims, gigantic PA system set up and shrill Spanish-language singing and preaching so loud it's like a knife in your ear, bouncing off the buildings across the street...the phrase "wake the dead" comes to mind. Talk about "disrespectin."
It looks so peaceful...well, it's a cemetery. Supposed to be peaceful. Headstones in there for Norwegian people from 1913, the pretty stone entrance gate with the red-white-blue "rosettes" they hang there. Expect to see men in derby hats and ladies in long dresses, maybe a horse-drawn wagon going by -- a window back into the Old America, just for a minute.
Some peeps can f__k up anything.
The protesters and undocumented shoppers just started the fires to keep the homeless people warm.
The CVS Drugs they burned is already red-tagged "CONDEMNED." Think the company will put another one in?
Old Herblock political cartoon from the late '60s -- back when the Tribune would print things like this.

The Baltimore gangsta thugs surrounded black-owned businesses and directed their disenfranchised brethren to loot un-black businesses. Just keeping it real.

2 people shot in Ferguson as new protests break out
Updated 8:34 AM ET, Wed April 29, 2015
"(CNN)At least two people were shot in separate incidents in Ferguson, Missouri, on late Tuesday and early Wednesday as hundreds of demonstrators gathered in support of protests in Baltimore.
"Police are having a difficult time investigating because of the rocks being thrown at them," said Jeff Small, a spokesman for the city of Ferguson.
"St. Louis Alderman Antonio French posted video on his Twitter account. Multiple gunshots can be heard as people flee in panic."

Hi SCC,
OT, but did you see the segment on Bill O'Reilly's show on Fox News last night about Chicago? The segment "Water's World" interviewed several people on the street in Chicago about the violence in the City and many of them had some tough things to say about McStreetlights and Rahm. Definitely worth watching. Here's a link in case you missed it...
http://www.foxnews.com/on-air/oreilly/index.html#/v/4202932818001
The single most threat to Law Enforcement everywhere will be leaving Office in 559 days, 13,400 hours , 804,000 mins.
He and his band of misfits has caused more destruction in this country than any disaster or plague known to mankind.
Stupid Maryland!
This is the result of anti-gun laws!
Law abiding people can't protect themselves from criminals!
I'm glad for the NRA fight and send them money constantly to protect my rights to Carry and Conceal my weapons!
I haven't heard of any riots or looting in the great State of Texas! Pro gun state!

Cry wolf so often in the ghetto and the nonsense slows down.
When Pres. Obama made his remarks concerning civil unrest in Baltimore, he didn't mention no 'black guerrillas!'
Crips and Bloods are supposed to be out in L.A. not on the east coast. What's happening here?
"The protesters and undocumented shoppers just started the fires to keep the homeless people warm."

You're close. Not only did they burn a senior citizen apartment building/community center under construction (went three alarms), they burned a homeless center.
"The clashes that left at least 144 vehicles and 15 structures on fire also claimed much of the center’s space..."
...and the person in charge of it says that the arsonists' "anger was legitimate."

SOURCE: BALTIMORE MAYOR ORDERED POLICE TO STAND DOWN
April 29, 2015
"Despite a firm denial by Baltimore Mayor Stephanie Rawlings-Blake, a senior law enforcement source charges that she gave an order for police to stand down as riots broke out Monday night, raising more questions about whether some of the violence and looting could have been prevented.
"The source, who is involved in the enforcement efforts, confirmed to Fox News there was a direct order from the mayor to her police chief Monday night, effectively tying the hands of officers as they were pelted with rocks and bottles.
"Asked directly if the mayor was the one who gave that order, the source said: "You are God damn right it was."

Was watching O'Reilly Tuesday night on FOX News, and he said the reason black on black crime is on the rise in Chicago, is because the Chicago cops are retreating. Really? We're retreating? Well, if O'Reilly said it, it must be true.

Arson is a reason to use deadly force. But Looting? I do not think so. And, what do you think would happen if some store owner had a shotgun and really opened up on the crowd rushing into his store? The thought scares me.
Origin of the word "thug": Thuggees, a Sanskrit word meaning concealment, were an organized gang of professional assassins – sometimes described as the world's first mafia – who operated from the 13th to the 19th centuries in India. Members of the fanatical religious group, who were infamous for their ritualistic assassinations carried out in the name of the Hindu Goddess Kali, were known as Thugs, a word that passed into common English during the British occupation of India.
If black lives matter so much. Why do they kill each other daily? I'm confused
"Black Guerilla Family"? What is this...Blood in,Blood Out? Hey Miklo, hey Big Al, hey Jefe! I swear, this whole world is like one big movie.
Chicago has basically had a hands-off policy for large crowd scenarios like this for the past five years. Ever since the flash mobs started downtown, I could probably count on one hand the number of times that the bosses actually wanted the troops to go ahead and create a mass arrest situation versus how many times a mass arrest situation was warranted. All of the other times the police are simply following them around the Gold Coast and River North shouting out their location. It's all fun and games until there's four teenagers jumping on some out-of-towners car.
Maybe Holder will provide the guns for the gangbangers to use against LEO's, again?
Earl Weaver could stop this shit in heart beat!

"A man was killed and two others were wounded Tuesday afternoon and evening in separate shootings on the South Side, police said.
"Two men were in the 13200 block of South Rhodes Avenue in the city's Golden Gate neighborhood on the Far South Side about 3 p.m. when they were shot.
"One man, 30, identified as Ivan S. Kennedy, was shot in the chest and pronounced dead at Roseland Community Hospital, where the pair had been dropped off, according to police and the Cook County medical examiner's office.
ock of South Forrestville Avenue, was pronounced dead at 3:30 p.m., according to the medical examiner's office.
"His companion, 22, was shot in the hand and grazed in the head. He's expected to recover from his wounds [and be out there next week lookin for payback, etc., etc., etc.]
"Golden Gate?" Is there a bay and a big bridge there? Born here, and keep hearing these "neighborhood names" I never heard in my life.
Seems like this is being generated by demographic/marketing/geolocation software that has to call it something. Every block will have its own name soon, so the drones can bring you a latte' when you wiggle your smartwatch.

If you were the police, you would know that he is correct. It is not the only reason, but we aren't doing the work we once did for a variety or reasons: the Mayor, the Superintendent are two big ones. Today's anti-police climate is next on the list.
Just pray that this does not happen here. It is possible.

......
Gary!!! Is that you?!!! Did you post this????!!!! Or is this Rahm???!!!! C'mon guys! Quit screwing around! We know you're afraid of what a riot in Chicago would do to your national image. The "optics" would be bad. We get it.
But why not address the PROBLEM bros. Admit that the social expirement has failed. Obama was a dud. Liberals has their chance and it didn't work.
What's that? It's too late? The Jeanie is out of the bottle and you can't get her back? Fuck. You're right. Let's pray. This country needs a LOT of prayer and needs to fall flat on its face before God. We got a fucking mess on our hands.
I feel safe here in Chicago, knowing the Major and Sup. are on top of this info. Boy, if that start occurring, we will have to pull Capt. Fonzy out of retirement. He would knock them out!!!!
The Crips, Bloods, and BGF agreed to a truce. The truce was put together by members of the Nation of Islam.
Sorry guys, it was just a truce
Plenty of members of the Nation Of Islam on CPD.
No more pro active police work. Only respond to 911 calls that claim a crime has occure. No more responding to bangers on the corner flashing gang signs. It's time the people get what they ask for
Signed
Done
Historical fact Re: The "Golden Gate" neighborhood. I know you said you were born and raised in Chicago- and while I'm not sure how long that is, the neighborhood in question has been known as "Golden Gate" beginning in the mid-1960's, and likely even earlier than that. It's not some new sort of real estate marketing scheme. And I can't think of any scheme that would make "Golden Gate" a desirable place to live. It's basically Altgeld Gardens.
Police are under no duty to respond to individual calls. Their duty is to the Public at large. US Sup Ct.
The best thing is to be armed, and have plenty of ammo for these situations. Get up on the roof, and tell the marauders they're going to die if they don't leave. Shoot to kill if you have to in order to protect yourself and your property.
But of course, that's not possible in Marylandistan where they've banned firearms.
Time to sue the INDIVIDUAL politicians who came up with this law - in essence, if we have the 2nd Amendment and can have firearms to defend ourselves, then that bit with the cops not having a duty to respond is understandable eh? But as soon as the Politicians make it impossible for one to properly defend oneself, then the politicians have created a duty to defend the individual right?
And since they didn't, they ought to get sued under a Sect. 1983 lawsuit and be personally and professionally liable. Furthermore, they ought to be brought up on charges of Treason for even passing this kind of unconstitutional crapola.
Baltimore is the armpit of the US. Been there for a long period of time so I speak the truth. Chicago, soon you will take that title....maybe you already did.
