Tourists Say, "DUCK!!!"

  • Charges have been filed against two men who were pulled over after shots were fired from their Jeep at another vehicle in Grant Park over the weekend, police said.

    David Calvin, 20, and Kevin Billingslea, 27, are charged with aggravated discharge of a firearm at an occupied vehicle, according to a statement from police. Calvin and Billingslea appeared in court for a bond hearing Monday, with Calvin ordered held in lieu of $150,000 bail, and Billingslea held in lieu of $100,000 bail, according to Cook County Jail records.

    No injuries were reported when the shots were fired around 2 p.m. Saturday in the 200 block of East Balbo Avenue, police said.
Okay, maybe not a thousand cuts, but a thousand bullets.

Great work Officers in securing these criminals arrest without anyone being injured or killed. A shooting on a Saturday in Grant Park at 2 in the afternoon.....I'd say a medal is in order! Well deserved! And without having a Super of Police confirmed! Better yet!!

Can anyone here at SCC tell us if the Chicago Crime Commission is still in operation?

I note that their press releases only go to 2014.

http://www.chicagocrimecommission.org/content.aspx?page_id=22&club_id=783436&module_id=141880

I am looking for some private organization like the Chicago Crime Commission that lobbies for clean, effective politicking and criminal justice.

Sad to say Chicago Dem politics looks worse and worst and the Chicago Police have been made to stand down, pull back - it's the whole ACLU, BlackLiesMatter #*$(@.

Privitization of city services including law enforcement and education is looking better and better. The University of Chicago police department could be a model.

Even Downtown Hasn't Been Spared From Chicago's Shooting Epidemic

There have been nine Downtown shootings since Jan. 1, a figure that's already approaching the 11 shootings police reported here in all of 2015.

"I don't remember anything like this ever happening," said Deborah Gershbein, president of the Streeterville Organization of Active Residents, a neighborhood group.

Yes, one of them is laughing because he knows the case will be eventually get dropped and he will be back home in time for Easter dinner with that ridiculously low bail amount.

We can thank God that U.S. cities in general and Chicago in particular are immune from terror attacks like occurred in Paris and most recently Brussels. Our president and his federal agencies have done an outstanding job of protecting our nation from terrorist attacks. Keep up the good work.

The savages think they can get away with anything, there is no safe area in this shithole of a city. Always carry and stay the fuck away from downtown. Rahm doesn't understand much about reality but he does understand money. Stop going downtown, spend your money elsewhere. That is something every political POS will understand loud and clear.

"Tourists Say, "DUCK!!!""

Hey...
Do what ya gotta do.

Meanwhile, does this ongoing
Chicago Shit-Show at least have
an Intermission? Because it is
more or less guaranteed that it
will be a few generations before
the smoldering hulk of a final act
is pushed on-stage with a charred
skeleton sitting in the driver's seat.

>SCRAAAPE! Clunk! Squeak! Squeal! SCRAPE!<

Long and very pregnant pause to take in
what just happened onstage...

Solitary slow clap...
A long and low whistle of appreciation
as the curtain slowly lowers.

The city YOU see is the city THEY want.

The only true justice this city will see
is some resemblance of the Cadaver Synod
when all the dirty m/fers who were members
of elected officialdom are put on trial
for their greed, treachery and craven
pandering that ushered in this new and
improved version of the Dark Ages.

Meanwhile?
Protect Yourselves.

There is a quote often attributed to
one of the famous upright Gunmen of
the early through mid 20th century...
(Wanna say it was Bill Jordan)

"It's YOUR hide.
How much do you value it?"

The situation from Saturday was a nice piece of work by the guys in 001. Nice convergence and takedown without turning into a clusterfuck. Heard it was a Glock 40 recovered? These MF'ers even have better weapons than most of us. Damn.

The politicians and chamber of commerce types ignore the numbers and ill-informed visitors do likewise. Chicago is increasingly user unfriendly -- random crime, high sales tax, outrageous parking and those lovely red-light cameras. That's just for starters. The reality is that between Crook (Chiraq) and Milwaukee (Killwaukee) counties there are over a million people along the lake alone with very little reason to come into a crime-ridden, inconvenient, expensive and outdated city.

Why don't you ask one of the several handjobs that were taking pix of it on their phones after it was removed from the dashboard? You'd swear these goofs never recovered a gun before. And quit self promoting, you boner, it was a UUW pinch, that's all. The real police do that every day in ghetto districts. Convergence? Takedown? Spoken like a true HairGel.

Speaking of Tourists and Lying Democrats...

In the numbers of "Tourists" visiting Chicago numbers the Lying Democrats are including passengers that land at O'Hare and Midway, change planes and take off for who knows where. So Lying Democrats can say "Tourism is Up", just like they say "Crime is Down".

If the could they would count out-of-state people driving through who get off the expressway to buy gas and continue on their way.

It was two offenders, charged with Aggravated Discharge of a Firearm at a Moving Vehicle, felony. It took place at Balbo and Michigan and again at Harrison and Wells, at 2:00 PM on a sunny Saturday afternoon. It was a GREAT arrest whether it was in 001,007,011,015 Belfast or Beiruit. If you can not appreciate the effort of the officers involved, their courage and commitment, then please come see me and explain to me where they were lacking. I am in the property crimes office all week. As for the pictures, I was taking them. My Chief, and our Superintendent wanted as much info as soon as possible to pass up the chain. Their request, my responsibility. And yes I do enjoy promoting the exemplary actions of officers and detectives when ever I can. I guess when I spend so much time reading negative reports of our profession, it's a thing I can do to push back. So come see me, and teach me what you are doing to portray our profession in a better light. Be safe. Larry
