Divvy "Profiling"
- As the operators of Chicago’s Divvy bike-sharing program prepare to enter their third month of battling widespread theft of the system’s taxpayer-owned bicycles, Chicago Police Department and Cook County Criminal Court records are shedding light on just how serious the problem has become.
Since July 1st, arrests of adults in possession of stolen Divvy bikes have led Chicago police officers to recover 2% of the system’s fleet, according to an analysis of the records by CWBChicago.
There is no way of tracking the number of additional bikes recovered from juvenile offenders because those records are shielded from public review.
But while progress is being made, you run the risk of this:
- A black man was arrested on Saturday night for riding what turned out to be a stolen Divvy bike on the sidewalk — and witnesses are questioning how police handled the situation.
“I want to be really clear, people do bike on the sidewalk all the time. They [police] pulled right in front of him and started searching him and putting him in handcuffs,” said Eboni Senai Hawkins, who watched the man get stopped and questioned by police and then taken away in a squad car.
Senai Hawkins said it took about 10-15 minutes from the time the man was stopped until he was taken away by police.
So a street corner "activist" who obviously knows nothing about Probable Cause, has determined that an adult individual riding a bike on the sidewalk shouldn't be stopped and questioned solely on the basis that he was.....black. And even more amusingly, the busybodies are attempting to promote a boycott of Divvy bikes until Divvy get their act together to stop bike theft from being so easy.
We imagine they spend their spare time protesting "bait trucks" that entrap burglars into stealing, complaining that nice cars force carjackers into stealing and telling women to stop wearing short skirts so they don't entice men into rape.

Why work anymore!
I re-painted by stolen Divvy.
It's now black.
No one has noticed so far.
hehehe
“Something something racism....something something profiling....”. same old story, different day. These morons want to have their cake and eat it too. At some point you need to treat these activists like spoiled kids throwing a ridiculous temper tantrum. Just ignore them until they tire themselves out and take a nap.
All this joyriding is going to be fondly remembered as "that divvy summer" someday.
Hey Eboni, it says right there on the fork of the the bike, "No bike riding on the sidewalk." Just get rid of these damn things!! The majority of people riding them are idiots...riding on LSD, on the sidewalks, riding like they never rode a bike before, riding through intersections without stopping, etc. Not to mention Rahm the Sham, gets a cut of this.

I heard in communist.. lol socialist countries this is the case— guys scooped up by the police and sent to prison with out a trial. But atleast here in the USA we have the US constitution— which entitles everyone to a day in court, proper defense, and speedy trial. If his case is not immediately DISMISSED, he will atleast have his day in court and will see a judge.

What if he had a gun and was ultimately looking to send an honest citizen to meet his maker??? Well the Poleec should not be stopping him
The "liberals " do often end up eating their tails.
Jesus, How do you live with these assholes.
is this a deep cover COPA agent?
Detroit in two years
Just add this to the list of laws that the "community" doesn't have to follow
I do NOT want to live in a community where activists such as Eboni reside. No and I mean hell no. I do not want to live with people who tolerate criminal activity which denigrates the neighborhood and blame it on the police and others. Eboni just showed who the problem in the community is. It is her.
People have gotten really nervy with this
whole "get up in da Poleece bidness" thingy
which is a direct result of the "Police are the
problem" narrative.
It wouldn't be so bad/obnoxious or even dangerous
but the adamant insistence of noisily involving themselves
in a Police taking care of Police business situation that
the nosey, smug-assed, insufferable, entitled, willfully
ignorant progressive twits in question have no knowledge
or training in.
This silly heifer is a special kind of stupid/obnoxious/hypocrite.
If she, or any other of these SJWs who cause knows no pause,
were to encounter some young black men fighting on the same
stretch of public way THEY happen to be on, you can bet a fat
man on his best Friday that these same SJWs would expel
copious wind and not a little shit while kicking mud over the
m/fing rooftops scrambling for traction trying to get the fuck
out of the way before "something dangerous" happens...
"Well that's different! You Cops are expected to play by the rules!"
>Sigh<
Isn't everybody?
Or is this another out loud example of:
"We runnin' thangs now an' y'all (upright
and law abiding society) can't do shit
about it but obey US!"
Give these peoples/folkses the
great big nothing they deserve.
Protect yourselves from them
first, foremost and always.
Look.
Point & Laugh.
Leave.
Police Like You Have No Friends.
Take the Divvy stations out of the ghetto. Then when you see one, PC becomes EZ.
Now, kees me you fool!!!!
Did anyone REALLY believe that these Divvy bikes would NOT get stolen? Do they not know what goes on in this city or what?
Hey Eboni, I suppose you got all your law expertise from watching Law and Order. If you begin watching CSI maybe just maybe you might be a forensics expert too. One can pray. Lol!
So sick of hearing this, always the same people crying racism or some other complaint. Must we all turn a blind eye when a person of color is involved in a criminal act ? Is there no personal responsibility anymore ? Bad choices bring about consequences. Why must it be “ it’s ok, cause he/she is black, bad police...back off. No wonder there is so many killing going on between themselves in their own neighborhood. Don’t they get it ?
Divy bikes are a boon to mankind and their use should be free for all. Respect the Divy.
Are they ever going to address facts?
They're Bait Bikes SCC!
Well, not stopping any black people on bikes for sure now. Sorry Divvy. Sorry taxpayers. Unless whites start stealing them, guess you will never get them back.
You forgot the gun sellers making a product that forces the people and folks to shoot at one another and being the bad students of shooting like they are everything else, they aren't good marksman and they shoot innocent people
Divvy will not sign complaints. Why bother?
What she failed to realize or didn't care was, crimes in that area are committed by black men on divvy bikes. How come when we were doing are jobs wrong crime was down. but now we are doing it right, crime is off the charts. just saying.
Don’t take away the MCC of riding a bicycle on the sidewalk!!! What charges would tact, gangs, and all the other units make arrests for??? Oh yeah, I forgot, they still have using playground equipment while over age, reckless conduct, soliciting narcotics, attempt PCS, and smoking on a bus stop.
simple solution, tracking device buried in the bike, but don't tell anyone.
Jesus Henry Christ, it's very easy: don't take shit that isn't yours! My two year old knows this. Why does an entire "communERty" not know this, and teach their chhildren this? FFS, my DOG doesn't take other dogs' toys, even when they're "baiting" him with a big old red squeaky thing in his face!
Just throw a fucking wall 25' high and 10' underground around the shittiest southside meighborhoods. We can check back in a generation or two and see if they've lifted themselves up yet. I'll start the betting.
Waste of money! City is a joke
Divvy-type bikes now in Cook County Forest Preserves. Saw two bikes just standing in a Preserve parking lot (no locking dispensers or anything) in Riverdale. Apparently this is a new program that is part of a bike rental system per the FPDCC website (http://fpdcc.com/fpnews/bike-rental-program-coming-to-forest-preserves-of-cook-county/). Nothing like importing more ways to have crime in the southeast suburbs (where CHA and HUD dumped the "projects" in the 1990's).
don't want to be pro-filed or disproportionately affected? keep your fkng hands off, ah's
an "activist", in other words a police hater and a racist hater of white people
1. Set up GoFundMe page.
2. Designate as beneficiaries: Crooks.
3. Declare all labor neccessary for the distribution of contributions to beneficiaries shall be voluntery only, no expenses allowed.
4. Let's get this puppy weaned, progs!!!!! (Potty training is optional)
I’m going to go out on a limb and say most of these thefts are in “the community”
The city is on the hook for $1,200.00 per stolen bike they don't care
Can't you just sign complaints yourself.
I Love the Word Profiling, When A Car jacking, Robbery,Smash and Grab happens you dont have to Mention the Race, At 018 99% of Violent Crime is the Same.
He was on a Divey bike and was wearing a white T shirt.
Mr Hawkins should ride his Divvy out to the Kennedy when the demonstration starts.
Who cares? Let em have these shitty bikes.

The bikes are city property. The police sign for the city.
Ok, the bikes are city property but Divvy reaps the profits ? What kind of scam is this ?
