Weekend Numbers Only Average

  • To try to curb violence over Labor Day weekend, Chicago Police have arrested 77 people and recovered 11 guns and more than $65,000 worth of illegal drugs on the West Side, police said Saturday night at a news conference.

    Of those 77 arrested Thursday and Friday, 63 were listed on the department’s Strategic Subject List, a way to measure “the propensity to be a victim or offender in violence,” First Deputy Supt. John Escalante said.

    What’s more, 57 of those arrested were convicted felons, 45 were documented gang members, 10 were on parole and 17 had prior weapons offenses. Police said nine of the people arrested were deemed nonviolent drug offenders and placed in their diversion program, which is designed to give them addiction counseling and divert them from jail.

    Nobody was charged with violent offenses, but “a lot of the violence in the 11th district does center around narcotics,” Escalante said. More than 100 grams of heroin, 75 grams of cocaine and more than 1,200 grams of cannabis and 78 grams of other drugs made up the $65,000 worth of narcotics recovered.
You'll recall, they did the same thing before the 4th of July when they took 88 known assholes off the street along with assorted guns and drugs. This time, they arrested 77 jagoffs right before the weekend, meaning they were either unable to make bail, violated, disappeared into the Homan Square Black Site or other means of keeping them occupied. It's a stop-gap measure that works, but only short term.

Now imagine everyone's surprise when criminals are actually sentenced (and serve) their entire sentences. They don't get to gun-up and murder other thugs when they're in prison! And they don't become victims of other thugs. And the more thugs you put in prison for lengthier sentences, the less chance they're offenders or victims! We've conducted extensive study of the subject and our findings are provable under all scientific conditions.

And here's a bone to throw to the CompStat kool-aid drinkers - if the criminals do manage to become victims or offenders while in Menard or Pontiac or anywhere in the IDOC, the crime doesn't count against Chicago's numbers. You don't even have to fudge the classifications. Win-win.

This should also show the department that VRI doesn't work. VRI guys who are working don't do anything. Instead they cancelled every tac,gang and sat team. Those guys are the younger guys who still are working and they get cancelled and continue to work. You get a ton of people who still work and crime will stay lower. Put 500 guys bringing in zeros on vri and you have 15 dead and 70 shot. This proves that VRI does nothin. And the department needs to hire a ton of people. When they get the numbers those younger officers will go out and work. I'm done working. I've got 27 on and on cruise control. I don't envy or hate workers. God bless them just be careful. But if you flood the ghetto with workers then of course crime goes down. You want crime to stay down then get young aggressive coppers out there. Hire 2500 young kids and get them in the fast districts then you will see crime drastically drop. You need a disconnect from the current mopes in this job who do nothing but hide and 1st and 16thz. They are useless and can do nothing for crime in this city. This was just shown this weekend.

I'm saying that all the arrests prior to July 4th created a power vacuum if you will. Spots run by those arrested were now up for grabs. "Security" and "enforcers" that were keeping other thugs at bay got locked up so the ones left on streets took advantage and went hunting. Just like in the jungle... when the top dogs are out of the way... the rest kill each other for the top spots. September will hit 70+. Enjoy the show.

Ummm, they do get to murder other thugs when in prison - but who cares? They might come up with some kind of firearm or projectile launcher - but so long as it's not a Correctional Ofc, again, who cares?

They do become victims of other thugs: Who cares though? That ought to be a deterrent against doing shit that puts you in prison in the first place.

The more thugs you put in prison, the less law-abiding people are victims. That's all that matters... Fuck the jagoff thugs...

WTF, Mr. Six is still around, two 1st. deputies ? Seen him on TV, good grief, he looks like the homeless guys with the cup working the off ramp of the Kennedy at Armitage. He has to drain that last dime from the city, Can't make ends meet with the 150 K pension, wife' CPD salary, and now that b.s job at that make believe university with 9 sworn under him, LOL. The spot he got is a step higher then being head of security for the old flop houses on old Madison Street 012 in the 1960'. This is so ass old already. Mr Merit-Six. Shame on you.

SCC - Some PO's who work/live in 017 are wondering if Mr. 6 will order his platoon of NorthEastern IL University PD to refrain from rolling on All Call radio messages. Suburban PD's like Lincolnwood, Niles, Park Ridge, Skokie have been known to pop up in both 16 & 17th Districts on in progress calls, knowing that the staffing levels are atrocious. Towns like Skokie are running shifts with more manpower than 016.
Will De-Escalante live up to his moniker and bury his head in the sand while ordering his eager staff to lay low and shake doorknobs? Or will he help protect the residents who pay high taxes, love the police, and are getting sparse protection? And Mr. 6 is also one of those residents - so maybe he will become a man and allow his PD to assist on hot calls.

Eventually, there will be problems with the CPD keeping a list, and then targeting those on the list for arrest. Eventually, the ACLU will demand how an individual becomes part of the list, how a person becomes targeted for arrest, or most importantly in their eyes, how a person is removed from the list. Without any of these questions addressed, the CPD will be sued, and we will all lose

Ok so the numbers are average. Hows that working out. Same amount of shootings but less murders. Last time a checked special ed doesnt control who lives or dies when they get shot. Sooooo at the end of the day. All the arrests and guns described above didnt do shit. Whether you live or die is all luck when ur shot. So the shit they did didnt change anything. The same amount of people got shot. End of story.

So 57 of the 77 were on the "List"? What a coincidence; sounds like Racial "Targeting". Now how many on the list are "People of Color"? Are there even any White Folk, or Peoples on that List? Sounds like the 'List" is going to be part of Discovery in a trial, and once again the City stepped into some real shit. Any Defense Counsel including the Public Defender will seize the City bragging about the 57 of the 77, as a clear and obvious targeting of certain citizens of Color by the police, Gestapo Tactics as used against Jews by the Nazis. BLM and George Soros, pay attention! The whole List may now be subject to review. So is this how Predictive Policing works; Racial Targeting of certain individuals? Are there any People of Color or "Colored People" in that Unit? Or just White Wannabe Tough Guys waiting to get promoted? Stay Fetal, Stay Fetal Baby"G"

Enough of this total bullshit coddling them like Tommy coward dart does, Tommy gives them a pizza oven, lets them make gourmet meals (We the taxpayers pay for this expensive food), bet Putin's jail guards don't get hit by prisoners and get beaten, if that happened bet in solitary with great ass beating and they are cured no more problems!

Wait a minute, our President is releasing people from federal custody who have either life or long sentences due to drug offenses. He saying they are not violent offenders, but now a high ranking police official is saying drugs are tied to violence. Who could believe drugs and violence are tied together, I mean the cartels and street gangs selling drugs have never committed violent acts in order to further their trade. So it makes perfect sense for Obama to release them. I'm sure once they are released they will be forever grateful for hi$ help will continue to thank him in the future with $miles on their face$. The Chicago Way.

Think of it like baseball season, and Rahm is being as cheap as George Steinbrenner back in the day. He controls the checkbook, but doesn't grasp the idea that if you want to have a winning season, you gotta leave Billy Martin alone to do his thing. Let Billy develop the pitching staff and get some heavy hitters for offense and get some good utility players to hold the fort defensively, and you're gonna start racking up the wins. Just sign the checks and show up for the photo-ops, but let your managers deal with the day-to-day shit of running the team.


Anyway, the other team loses some of their starting lineup every month or so when the sweeps happen and they end up benched for a few innings, courtesy of Cook County. So now the second stringers take the field, and maybe a few of the more ambitious dudes from the minors decide to tag along. They play a few innings 'til they get tagged out or take their turn on the disabled list, but by then the regular starters are rested up and ready to get back into it. The SSL list is just a sloppy scouting report that focuses on the other teams star players but totally overlooks the rest of the bench and whatever might be on tap from the minors. The shitheads are always scouting, always recruiting, and are always bringing in new players, while 35th Street wants to keep playing the same lineup even though the CPD bench is pretty empty.
