Opening Weekend Salvos

  • Four people were killed and 12 wounded in shootings on Friday across Chicago, including a pregnant woman who was among four people shot in Parkway Gardens on the South Side.

    Just after 3 a.m., someone walked up the back alley stairs of a building in the 6300 block of South King Drive and fired shots into an apartment, according to Chicago police.
Obviously, another crime of poverty. We know this because Lightgroot said so.

And we think we recall seeing something like this in poverty stricken third world shitholes:
  • Five men with guns robbed a bar early Saturday on the Northwest Side.

    About 12:25 a.m., the robbers entered the establishment in the 2900 block of North Pulaski and brandished guns at the customers inside, according to Chicago police. They were all wearing black and two of them wore masks.

    They demanded that everyone get on the ground, then took their property, police said. One of the men fired his gun at a wall. Three women and seven men were robbed, police said. No one was hurt.
These so-called "take over" robberies are a staple of South and Central America ghettos. There are videos all over YouTube. We're thinking the robbers aren't paying attention to the "No Gun" signs posted all over the bars - if they did, there wouldn't be robberies....right?

If these murders are in fact, "crimes of poverty", then CPD has ZERO to do with them.

The department isn't responsible for these people being poor. Maybe the Department of Revenue should be handing out money or something. It's DoR's fault! They're not handing out any money!

Not only are the shootings costing the taxpayers but consider what Lightfoot reiterated on Friday:


"Mayor Lori Lightfoot announced Friday that the Chicago Police Department would not cooperate with planned raids by the federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency this weekend.

"We are all aware of the threat from President Trump regarding raids by ICE, and in response, Chicago has taken concrete steps to support our immigrant communities," Lightfoot said in a statement.

City officials estimate that there are tens of thousands of undocumented immigrants living in Chicago, protected by sanctuary laws. Governor Pritzker signed two bills earlier Friday making it illegal for groups to establish detention centers or local law enforcement from making agreements with ICE." (ABC 7 News)

The deportation order is now being delayed for two weeks as a courtesy to the Democrats. I wish a reporter would challenge Lightfoot & Pritzker and ask them why the taxpayers have to support these illegal invaders. How do they benefit the citizens who who are picking up the tab. We know how they benefit Lightfoot & Pritzker.

Again I know many South Americans and this is what I’ve seen with my own eyes it seems they like to mimic the Asian and Jewish communities in that education is a big priority and they don’t have time for gangs and ghetto related crap....Yes yes yes I understand there’s good and bad in every society in every group and every nationality but like I said when I hear about a gang related mass shooting I don’t think about Jewish, Asians or South Americans as the offenders.

scc, I realize that there are limited number of officers who transport juveniles to the audy home at 1100 s Hamilton. However if one has ever been exposed to juvenile intake would surely question the narrative that is instilled in young minds as their first step into criminal justice system. Victimization. Racial diversion. Instilled slavery on full display. Not one mention of John f. Kennedy or Robert who promoted civil rights in the 60's. However they are white. If the tables are to be turned the city would burn. I implore any investigative body to examine and determine what is appropriate at an intake facility in a democratic society based on the equal scales of justice. Look into it scc it will blow your mind...and yes there is video evidence.

Groot ordered the CPD not to take part in the immigration raids that were planned for Sunday, but now have been postponed.
She specifically said that CPD should not share its gang database with ICE.

“One of the things that we’re doing is trying to focus every tool of city government on making sure that we’re supporting the neighborhoods because what we’re experiencing is definitely a public health crisis so we’re looking at the root causes of the violence,” Lightfoot said, repeating one of her frequent arguments. “Making sure that we’re in effect flooding the zone of the areas that are most distressed to make sure that we’re providing resources, jobs, economic development but also showing the young people (of the) neighborhoods that we care about them, that we’re going to provide them with opportunities to be part of a legitimate economy, and doing everything we can to help support those neighborhoods.”

OT: Sunday Tribune page 1 has another Foxx/Smellit favorable piece by young SJW-reporter Megan Crepeau.

She calls what Smellit and Foxx did "a small-time felony case." Tell that to the national and global media, Megan. Remember Robin Roberts?

Tell that to Jesse Jackson, Jamal, Bobby Rush, Toni Preckwinkle, and all the haters who gathered afterwards and called the cops the blue klan.

She and Bruce Dold really don't get that Smellit and Foxx crapped all over the law-abiding people in this city. Or maybe Megan does and she likes it.

I am responding to the simplistic mind of the 3:36am poster.
Wow, whoever commented on juveniles sure sounds like a racist.
Easily forgotten is the fact that those sent to the Audy Home are prisoners that have committed serious and often very violent offenses. These prisoners were caught and went through a process that for most part releases most juveniles after a process that only 'detains' the worst. Race doesn't matter once they enter the court system. The subtle "they are picking on me because I'm black' attitude ignores bleeding victims, smoking guns in their hands, and the amount of illegal drugs in their possession.
These juveniles are in the custody and control of system that forces them to line up, keep quiet and they hear don't do that, go over there, stop fighting - for near the first time in their lives. Rules are explained and enforced, rules that apply to all 'prisoners' and this in their hateful minds becomes 'victimization', 'racial', and 'slavery'.

From the first story:

“No witnesses have come forward.” Nor are any likely to...

What’s sad is that Light-brain is going to have her “accountability Monday” (if she’s not out of town) with the wrong people. I read all of the news accounts of these shootings and NOT ONE OF THEM could have been prevented by police - even if an officer had been standing on the corner.

How is it that the police are “accountable” for criminal activity? Is a doctor responsible for their patient eating themselves into a heart attack? Is the plumber responsible for your clogged drain? Is the mechanic responsible when you don’t change your car’s oil frequently enough?

About the only thing she can “pin” on the police is that they don’t solve murder cases very often, but even that is more the responsibility of “the community”. She (and other race-baiters) claim that “the community” doesn’t cooperate with detectives because they’re afraid of the police - what horse shit! It’s NOT the police they’re afraid of, it’s the criminals,

They know that even if they identify the murderer, that person will be out on bail in less than 24 hours - probably less than 4 hours - and will be pounding the pavement looking for whoever ratted them out. The police can’t do anything to protect the witness - the perp is legitimately out on bail - and if they did, they’d be accused of “racism” or “harassment”. So, the police have to wait until the murderer kills the witness, THEN they start the whole process over - find a witness, arrest the perp and watch as some social justice judge or prosecutor cuts them loose again.

Lather, rinse, repeat....

At this point, with the State’s Attorney and the judges doing everything they can to NOT incarcerate members of “the community”, there is nothing that can be done to help improve Chicago’s appalling homicide clearance rate. Putting more detectives on the street won’t help - they’ll just hear more repetitions of “I din see nuttin”. And even they do get a witness, or video images or maybe CSI pulls a miracle out of their test tubes and they manage to arrest someone, the perp will be out on the street - on bail or just not prosecuted - before the paperwork is done.

Light-brain should call in the “activists”, “community organizers” and sundry rabble-rousers from “the community” and have “accountability Monday” with them. It won’t make a bit of difference - they’re all dependent on crime and poverty to keep themselves employed - but at least she’d be meeting with people who are at least partly responsible for the shootings.

On Sunday, 16 June 1974, Officer Robert J. Strugala #10236 and Officer John Wasco, both of the 10th District, were on patrol working the wagon. The Officers on-viewed a takeover robbery when they heard gunshots coming from a tavern located at 26th & Kedzie. Both Officers accessed the tavern using a different entrance door than the other and engaged the offenders. Officer Strugala was shot and killed. His partner, Officer John Wasco was also wounded having been shot multiple times. Officer Strugala succumbed to his injury. Officer Wasco was seriously wounded, but ultimately survived.

Reading about the most recent tavern takeover robbery, I found myself remembering these two heroes, Officers Strugala and Wasco, and I thought to remind others of their dedication, service and sacrifice. Lest we forget.

Not a cop, but I saw on the news that multiple aldermen, emboldened by Lori's "we wont assist ICE in these raids" statement, were telling their "constituents" that; they are not required to open the door for ICE agents unless there is a valid arrest warrant, they are not required to make any statements unless they are represented by legal counsel, etc., etc., etc.

Now, if I understand the purpose of these Federally ordered raids, the "targets" have already found to be in violation and subject to deportation, so I assume that there are actual warrants!

Furthermore, the constitutional rights being reiterated to the "constituents" by these aldermen are constitutional rights guaranteed to U.S. citizens.... right?

in the early 70s i worked in the indiana steel mills. there were taverns right outside the mills that would cash checks. even back then construction workers working 6-7 days a week could clear 1000.00-2000.00 a week. taverns had food and a little gaming. the payroll had to be 200,000.00- 300,000.00 in cash on a friday nite in a little corner joint. being indiana all the bar workers were heavily strapped up including shotguns. i was there when several shitheads walked in doing a take over with shotguns. when the smoke cleared they were all shot kilted. i think one employee got killed too. sent an unmistakeable message to the community about who could be robbed. never happened again. we need the good guys to have more guns than the bad guys. strength in numbers indeed. dont think that will ever happen here. pity. mill gate inn, right outside youngstown sheet and tube southeast of amoco refinery about 73-74.

Response to 8:54am repsponding to my post: No my post is not from a social justice warrior loser’s perspective. All I’m saying is if you look at countries in South America like Argentina,Uruguay, Chile, and others you will see a vast improvement of standard of living, a vast improvement of educational attainment, and a vast improvement on the corruption index from the government, Big modern cities with skyline comparisons to our Chicago skyline with modern infrastructure modern molds of public transportation I have been there many times and trust me I’m struck in awe how these countries have improved a lot in the past 20-30 years. If you look at the per capita GDP of these countries they are topping European countries such as Bulgaria and Romania and that includes the corruption levels ;yes I’m saying South American countries are gaining a level of a decent standard and f living where the “need” to emigrate is not a motivator anymore. I am saying you cannot compare Central American countries infested with poverty stricken, gang infested, corruption to no end from the government, eighth grade education attainment level at best from the average person compared to South American countries. Yes, Venezuela once the envy of many South American countries is in a bad situation right because of that commie Maduro but those people that do get out of Venezuela emigrate to other South American countries all I’m saying is that the people that come here crossing our land borders are poor uneducated people mostly from Mexico and Central America not South America and a few South America that to come here illegally they never cross the land borders they come by plane and overstayed their visa like many of the Polish, Ukrainian, other eastern European people that mostly are not involved in gangs and mostly never take any government handouts, yes they overstayed their visas and must be kicked out but we have to concentrate on kicking out people crossing from our land borders 1st

Regarding response at 1:29 pm to my post. Yes you are very correct lots of violence in Brazil and Venezuela. In Brazil as in Chicago it’s isolated in the favelas (think of the west and south side and they hardly ever leave from there). And then Venezuela since maduro took over the commie transform a once envied, high GDP, modern country into a hellhole. In Venezuela the few people that do emigrate to the states are similar to the people that left Cuba in 1959: educated, people with money, high business acumen that are NOT going to be waiting outside of home depots doors to offer themselves putting up drywall at $15 an hour. These people overstay their visitor visas and SHOULD be deported but we have concentrate on people crossing over our borders first.
