Gee, What Could it Be?

  • Davon Barrett gathered at a home in West Englewood on Sunday to celebrate and remember. A friend had just gotten out of jail, and it was the birthday of his younger brother — who was slain seven years ago, according to family and police.

    As he sat on the porch in the 2000 block of West 68th Place, someone fired shots from a vacant lot east of Damen Avenue shortly after 11 p.m., police said.

    Barrett, 38, was hit in the head and died at the scene. Another man, 26, was hit in the chest and killed. Three others were wounded and taken to hospitals, where they were stabilized, according to police.

    Police sources said some in the group on the porch may have returned fire. It was the third attack in a week in Chicago where four or more people were shot. Police reported no one in custody.
How many of those four were shot by the police again?

We don't recall anyone ever doing a scientific study on the propensity of certain neighborhoods to celebrate the birthday of someone who was killed in gang violence.

And the habits of those "celebrations" being marred by gunfire.

Not to mention the genetic disorder that causes certain families to have an unexplained attraction to lead.

Black on Black crime is like Islamic Jihad and terrorism. They are forbidden words and phrases which must never be spoken and must be erased from public memory, by government decree.

They will blame the police for not stoping the shooting. But the day before and I'm sure a week later they will blame the police for violating their rights. You see if the police familiar with the area stopped the shooter prior to the shooting just based on a "hunch" or their knowledge and experience they would be "violating his civil rights" and reviewed by the ACLU IPRA etc. We must follow the law and orders

That neighborhood CULTURE is fucked up, everyday shooting someone, half the time an innocent person (kids) get shot, kids can't even be kids because of the Culture in the neighborhood , the lack of respect for themselves and life, and parents only caring after their kids gets shot, over a 1000 shot this year, over 170 killed, last year was 2800 shot and 500 killed, and the politicians and the Revruns say the CUlture in CPD has to change? Fuck that and fuck them

When my father died in 2002 we were going to bury him at St. Mary's Cemetery. They only spot available was along a litter strewn section against 87th Street. I looked at the names on the existing headstones, the empty Cheetos bags, and beer cans left in rembrance of the dear departed. Then I saw the empty shell casings. That was the extent of my scientific study that concluded that certain ethnic groups have a propensity to celebrate the untimely demise of a loved one with alcohol and guns. We found a nicer "neighborhood" at Holy Sepulchre where the only violence was between a bird and a squirrel arguing over an acorn.

(Yawn) Who really cares anymore? I've become numb to it all. When 'they' want to change, they know where to find us. The profession dates back to the beginning of civilization for a reason. Civilized cultures seem to understand the need and benefit.

Obama's administration has caused more harm than good to the USA. Hillary will continue the demise. Look to Germany (Merkel) with Obama on her arm just last week, at what the liberal left has done with opening their gates to an uncivilized society (anti-women).

I demand a Reverend Accountability Task Force to investigate the racist violence of their communities. They are terrorizing entire neighborhoods and costing millions of taxpayer dollars. The church-state conflict and support of gangs of murderers is offensive to the honest, hard working taxpayers.

You had to know that this would happen to appease the community. The city, which has a starting pay of $10 an hour for police officers ( yes it is true) fired both police officers involved in this shooting , even the driver of the car who did not fire a shot. He was blasted for pulling the car too close to Rice.

Entire family structure based upon crime, prison, blood, and death.

I have to laugh at groups like Black Lives Matter when this sort of lunacy is rampant in the black community. Until they get their shit together and stop acting like savages nothing will change. Continue blaming all your problems on the white devil while your own people keeping killing each other.

1 Minute of video the man behind the curtain, eddie addressing so called command staff, and then behind the curtain would it be,could it be rahm?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YWyCCJ6B2WE

Think 5 years ago how much more video can these morons use to hurt street coppers? Is it like the old Siskel and Ebert "at the movies" where the clowns with the shiny gold stars sit around in the auditorium and watch video after video doing their best to go after coppers? Hey eddie is there any "video" on your girl friends and her "sisters" cheating test scandal? Have you called in iad and the feds to look at criminal charges? Of course not, your using a deflationary tactic to steer the media to focus on us! The hope we had has been vanquished it's a shame really "1 of our own" chosen from the CPD is destroying the last dying breath of real police work! Disgraceful cannot even fully describe what you are doing! How does a copper survive? You know the answer do the job as required, no proactive, reactive here is your report, signed complaints only stay fetal ahh heck with that stay comatose,protect Blue, #taxpayerslivesmatter

Police like you have no friends.
They're predicting a LONG hot summer too.

There will be no help for no one.
They're enjoying that The Police have
been tied in knots and walked to a standstill.

Memorials to dead gangbangers are all too common - but some of the people "killed in gang violence" are random bystanders cut down by stray bullets. (This excludes family members, girlfriends, and buddies of gangbangers who get shot while associating with these criminals.)

Just A Civilian (who retains some sympathy for truly innocent victims and their families)

Just so you know, we all have sympathy for the truly innocent victims of the gang violence. It's our families affected by the shooting and the hard working people who do everything right, but can't get out of the gang areas.

Let me ease your pain there, Rich. Most "innocent bystanders" are not that innocent. We all feel for the children and others that get hit down the street, but everyone on that porch is part of the problem. Everyone in that car is a problem. Everyone standing with Ray Ray and Deshawaun in that park is a problem. They are drug customers, family, friends or other hangers on that give aid and comfort to the worst Chicago has to offer. Like the idiot dentist in the St. Valentines Day Massacre, don't waste your tears.

Without their support, the gangbangers would be treated like the pariahs they are.
