Nice Riverwalk There Rahm
We're sure that Rahm is shocked....SHOCKED...that crime is occurring downtown!
- Two men were wounded in a shooting early Sunday on the Chicago Riverwalk, according to police.
The incident occurred around 2:04 a.m. near the intersection of W. Wacker Dr. and N. Dearborn St. at the popular attraction in the city’s Loop.
Authorities said the victims were involved in an argument with several other men when shots were fired.
This isn't going to be good for the tourist trade:
- The location of the shooting – a busy tourist destination – stunned many witnesses.
"I kind of feel that now the area’s sort of, you know, tainted," said Sergio Castro, adding, "We thought this area was going to be protected from this kind of stuff. We don’t think it’s gonna happen around here, so I don’t feel that great about it right now."
No one is in custody in connection with the shooting, according to police, and the investigation is ongoing.
Maybe Rahm can jump this guy before he spreads the news around and scares more tourists.

Rahm was probably having a major meltdown after hearing this. Like those videos of some German language Hitler movie where they had English subtitles, and called it "Shortshanks finds out we didn't get the olympics".
The city is safe, crime is down, the Democrats are going to save us, and white people are moving to Chicago. Unsure why the media must say that white people are not moving out. Race should not matter.
To funny, city is a joke!!!!!!!
We thought this area was going to be protected from this stuff...
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA moron. The only areas protected from stuff are the one's right next to Rahm, Burke & Co.
The rest of you are on your own! Ya'll come back now, hear?!
Daaay-umm... Deys shootin' all ova dis piece.... Bang bang bang muthafucka. Welcome to Chicago. A big shout out to the ACLU, it's ISR and Rhamulous and Co. for making this all possible.
Thank you, come again.
I feel the same way about ALL of Cook County.
I am out and not going to visit until it gets better.
Annd that won't happen until Chicago goes Republican.
Skip the River Walk!
Go cool off on the Beach!
when i came on 20 years ago crime like this in the "downtown"& Michigan Av areas was unheard of. ever. or it was swiftly dealt with. Daley knew that was the cash cow, engine driving the city. now its falling apart slowly. i used to take my family there for holiday shopping, once in a while museum or navy pier. last 8 years or so -never. won't even consider it.
VRI Riverwalk

No meltdown from Rahm.
He takes his family and splits town every weekend.
He's got that out of sight out of mind attitude.
Were there any shootings by Bubbly Creek?
Failed Emmanuel leadership has permitted CPD to be down over 4,000.
Chicago is the UNSAFEST city in America.
As you leave ORD there should be a sign greeting visitors and tourists. Welcome to Chicago in 2016 there were 800 homicides, since 1972 27 aldermen and 4 governors were sent to prison and sales tax is the highest in the country. Have a nice day. ♠️
Liberals will refuse to believe reality right in front of them. The "Riverwalk" tainted!? How about the rest of the city?
The river walk is not safe this isn't the first time that is happen
Just to reiterate - law abiding citizens and tourists can't go to the south side, they can't go to the west side and now they obviously can't go to Michigan Ave and downtown without being a likely sitting duck (victim).
Rhamacide in Chiraq - the rest of the United States has written off Illinois and most certainly, Chicago.
Welcome to the greatest city in the World to get shot and Killed in....We ARE World class and Number one in Mayhem...and the totals are rising.
Many citizens still think Chicago is a safe city. Teach them, you are always safe...Until you're Not. Anything can happen anywhere at anytime...My FTO taught me that many years ago.
The pitch:
“The Riverwalk was a bustling hub of activity this year, offering a variety of venues and spaces for residents and visitors to eat, drink and play. The riverfront investments we’re making throughout the City are increasing river access, increasing recreational opportunities and promoting economic growth.” – Mayor Rahm Emanuel, 2016
The swing:
Estimated (Walsh again) at $40 million and topped it over $100 million to complete...with a 30 year loan (some finance master made out well).
The miss:
Don't be around after 7pm.
Beware of the roaming packs of vicious mongrels.
RAHM'S FERAL AND SACTUARY CHICAGO FIRST.

It's a shame you are missing all the nice things chicago has to offer. Michigan Ave, Navy Pier, etc I go down there all the time eat dinner shop and walk around. Problem is trouble starts later. As we always said "nothing good happens after midnight" at this shooting happened at 2AM

Way to attract tourism Rahmulous.
Does anyone remember when Rahm was on the news pushing a Tahoe out of snow? This was back in 2011 I think... Also there was a campaign commercial of Rahm signing his signature in permanent marker the blue shirt of some stupid cop with round hat on... 6 years later the memories of yesteryear... hey died anyone think that guy framed his blue shirt, he prolly dropped about 300 bucks on a frame
The rest of downtown is a big dung heap. There's a new game downtown call dodge the bums and crackheads.They are like pylons.If they aren't laying on the ground there's at least 4 per block begging,pissing or on a rare occasion taking a dump. So come one come all and enjoy the sights and smells of the real Shitcago.
I actually was walking near that same spot last year. Maybe 7pm on a warm summer night. I was mf'ed by a group of democrats sitting on the stairs for no apparent reason. I generally would have less patience then most with those dogs but just wasn't in the mood. But I can see it escalating very easily. The only givens are death, taxes, and the dems ruining everything they touch.

The time to worry is when "Riverdance" announces a revival production at the the Beverly Arts Center.
Always said nuthin good happens after 2am
Growing up in the 70's you took your life in your own hands if you were downtown after 10pm. History always has a way of repeating itself.

Wow. The naivety in this world is astonishing. Maybe check out the suburbanites getting off the train at Ogilvie around noon. As soon as they step out on Madison they are hit up by the bums. After they stop shaking in fear they can't wait to empty their wallets so they are left alone. My favorites though are the shoeshine roamers that hit up people. The naive's can't wait for their shine until the bill comes. Usually $15 per shoe, then the argument starts. Nice way to spend the day in the loop. Have fun liberals!
BREAKING NEWS!
According to SpEd, this not crime because the perps knew each other. The Riverwalk is safe and so are the beaches sez Ed Of Course.
On an unrelated Shitcago topic. Went to the federal building to get a passport to go on vacation. Was standing in a very long line while people were screened through metal detectors etc. I had already taken my phone, keys, change out and put them into a bin. Nobody that I had seen so far had been asked to remove their shoes while I was in line. I leaned over to the F/1 security guard and I joked that I was a Policeman and hoped that I didn't have to remove my shoes. Said guard immediately replied "Sir I needs yu to remove yo shoes and place dem in yo bin". I was like, "You're kidding right?" The lovely guard then stated "Jus cause yu da poleece dont mean yu ain't got to follow da rules". I just started laughing. Then F/1 guard #2 chimed in "Sir if yu cawzin a disturbince, I will have yu removed from da buildin". Wow, love how da poleece are treated in this day and age in this shit town. Ghetto power trip baby!

Modelled after 4228 N. Hermitage.
Shooting are occurring along the beach and river walk, because summer mobile is in the hood.
Rahm is still hiding from the press because he doesn't want to answer questions about his reversal on the federal babysitter. He is smart though as he knows they will simply see something shiny and move on in a few days.
""""Weekend shootings along the downtown Riverwalk and at 31st Street beach should not discourage summer tourists and everyday Chicagoans from flocking to two of the city’s most enduring attractions, Chicago Police Supt. Eddie Johnson said Monday.""
"""“Those were not random incidents . . . they were targeted at groups of people that knew each other. . . . These weren’t street robberies or things of that nature,” Johnson said."""
So I guess theres a difference when catching a bullet from a robber and catching one from one of our thousands random incidents? This fucking guy is so far behind in the race he thinks he's in front.
I wouldnt go to one of these attractions and I'm armed. I dont need the trouble or the headlines or the Dept. trying to fuck me over shooting some Dindu.
They just "funnin"
I was reading a facebook page that advertises houses for sale. A listing went up for a pretty nice house on the north side. Overwhelmingly, people posted they liked the house, but would NEVER buy in Chicago. The reasons given were crime and taxes and several people openly blamed Emanuel. (These were people from all over the country and one from Europe.) The word is out there and it's going to be hard to change that perception.

The name Summer mobile, is either someone's stupid joke or a low information house mouse's use of a unit name that has nothing in common with the old beach patrol. They tried to dupe people to join in a summer full of details to different "underserved" areas of the city.
Summer mobile sounds nicer than summer strike force or summer ghetto rangers? It's still bullshit...
This fucking guy is so far behind in the race he thinks he's in front.

He is in front . . . and he's about to be lapped. Again. Oh well, Rome wasn't burned
