Streak Hits Four

  • Chicago has gone four straight days without a deadly shooting

    It’s the first time that’s happened this year.

    The last person to die of gunshot wounds was a man who got into a fight in Albany Park early Sunday morning.
First of all, you might jinx it.

Then, you give the media the opportunity to trumpet the 750 dead and 4,200 shot this year, all of which can be lain directly at Rahm's feet.

But what do we know? We've only been predicting this for what? Ten years now?

Its called the grandma effect. Fail. Over. Trumps coming in so dont go making no more trouble. They dont wanna loose the programs if their ass is out there banging. No more. By next September they will be begging for food and by September 2018 we are on our way. Late but strong again. We need to take our country back again. And we will

The good news is that 800 killings are out of reach THIS year.

But we are still up almost THREE HUNDRED compared to last year. 300!

Already 300 more than in 2013 or 2014.

773 homicides as of now. It would take a rash of warm weather to bring out the POS to reach 800 homicides by year's end. I figure 780 - 785 at the high end.

If there are anymore 'social justice/social engineering' programs added to the already onerous oversight of CPD one can be assured that next year we will see 1,000 homicides. And by all means please Mr. Mayor can you layer another on us to satisfy the community, while not demanding the community improve itself?

Normal. Cities usually have four days between killings.

Welcome to Chicago!
We are Proud that we will kill less than 800 this year! Proud!

They're just out doing their Christmas shoplifting. They'll be back at it in no time. We might not hit 800, but it was still a good effort. And hey, there's always next year.

I like the Media just coming around to the conclusion that less police officers means more crime. Who would have thought?

4 days without someone intending to kill someone? Or just 4 days without some successfully killing someone ?

give the criminals a break- its Xmas and they have been working hard all year causing mayhem and bloodshed....they need some down time to recharge, rejuvenate and reconnect ----with all the dead piling up chances are they too are woefully understaffed and lacking resources (its not just CPD struggling)

Now how many were shot? Quit bragging it is only because of great medical technology that these thugs are being saved!

Then Observed former 008 commander O'Donnell look what he can do:

>>> December 22, 2016: 'Chicago goes 4 days without a fatal shooting' <<<
WGN just haaaad to do it, didn't they. Thanks to them some Gangbanging Snowflake's precious feelings got hurt -- Yes, they do have feelings too -- and made sure the streak didn't go for five days. To wit: .......

+++++ 12-23-2016, Chi Trib: '1 dead, 8 wounded in city shootings' +++++
----'A man was killed and eight other people, including a 13-year-old boy, were wounded in shootings in Chicago on Thursday. The fatal shooting happened about 1:15 p.m. in the 7900 block of South Exchange Avenue... Two men, 21 and 20, were standing on the sidewalk when a white SUV drove down the street and someone inside opened its back door and began shooting, police said. The 21-year-old was shot in the head and was taken to Advocate Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn in critical condition but was later pronounced dead there at 2:11 p.m' ----

And don't kid yourself, WGN knew very well that article would be a jinx and someone would get whacked. What they did is like saying in the 7th inning that a Pitcher has a no-hitter going -- a Hit always follows. Or like when Da Bears have it 1st and 10 on the opponents 6 Yard Line, saying that a Touchd....
Uh...wait a sec...it's the Bears, they'll fuck it up without any jinx. So ignore this part. :-)

Anywho, there's eight days left in 2016, 785 total Homicides is easily in reach, it's 773 now. And 693 have been shot dead. I wager that 700 will be passed by Tuesday morning.

Some Murders and are still listed as a "Death Investigation". Unfortunately, it will mostly likely will all be exposed next year, so I will not win my ghool-pool.

First time 4 days of no murders, a Special Ed holladay (Death Invs not included).
Have faith ghoul poolers...warmer weather is on the Merry Way.
Make up shootins' are already in the works.
Could be a busy weekend at The Morgue.

My Friday - Monday morning tally is...
• Murdered & Kill't: 18 (+/- 2)
• Shot & Un-Kill't: 52

Stay Fetal.

Going to be very warm in a few days and NO extreme cold on the horizon. To you naysayers saying we can't hit 800 I think you are speaking too soon.

Every team can hit a slump. The thing to do is get over it and return to normal.
