Shooting

  • An armed person was shot to death by Chicago police Sunday after allegedly shooting someone outside of a bar in Lake View on the North Side.

    About 5:15 a.m., officers in the area responded to calls of a disturbance outside of Tai’s Til 4, 3611 N. Ashland Ave., and as officers arrived, an armed male shot a person outside of the bar and attempted to run from the scene, interim CPD Superintendent Charlie Beck said at a press conference.

    As officers pursued the armed male, he allegedly fired shots at police and an officer returned fire, fatally striking him, Beck said. The armed male was pronounced dead at the scene, and a gun was recovered.
By all accounts, a particularly heroic bit of police work in harrowing circumstances. Very well done Officer.

That bar has been a magnet for shit heads for years being a 5 a.m. bar!

Time to close that bar for good!

Overall, Lakeview has gotten nicer and time to chase the last of the shitheads out of the area!

Good Job and Good Shoot by The Police in putting
this rabid dog down before he had a chance to add
to his tally.

It's good to see that some Chicago Policemen
are still the fierce creatures they need to be.

Fuck the dearly held liberal democrat progressive
SJW fantasy of "Police Duty To Retreat/De-Escalate"
in the face of violent and/or armed resistance.

Sometimes, you have to oblige a death-loving
m/fer by closing his eyes for him...

Or as one old old-timer so succinctly put it:

"M/Fer if you blink, you'll just be a dead
m/fer in the dark."

Protect yourselves and each other.

Go home to your families safe and sound.

It makes the white-guilt liberal democrat collectivist SJWs,
their community member foot soldiers and local media
editorial board members chew their tongues in outrage.

"We find it concerning and alarming when Chicago Police Officers
are free to violently use their guns without proper oversight,
review and constraint..."

>Snicker!<
See how easy that was?

Meanwhile... Violent, death-loving criminals are given
plenty of air and opportunity to dick-swing and swagger
the length and breadth of this city.

Since it's The Police who are cast as the cause
of all that is wrong with Chicago?

Police Like You Have No Friends...

This was part of the plan at the SA's office and bail reform - break some eggs to get an omelete- its insanity that the group of people taking oaths, and whose actual job is to serve justice thus protect us now have put out the fomula to execute you as part of some long term plan to end poverty, show compassion, give people a chance, but they won't stop. 30,000 people could be murdered on this quest ala Chairmen Mau , Stalin , Pol Pot. Unfortunately, ( for the future homicide victims) these people are not going anywhere in terms of being voted out. Bail reform is not going away.

So now it's "interim" in lower case instead of "Interim"
when Jackass Charlie first arrived on scene. We get the
impression he's forced to hold these press conferences.
He has no intention of meeting with the press other than to
satisfy demands placed upon him by Zany Lori. His name
never appears in the opening. It's buried near the end. How
can your heart be in your work when you announce you'll only
be staying 3 months? And what's up with that anyway?
Should Charlie not be leaving right about now? Is Malinoski
getting cold feet? Could it be that Sean has an albatross of
bad press following him around?
We have more questions than answers.

Funny but sad how NBC 5 couldn't decide how to spin this incident: Their crack anchor Katie Kim was notably agitated that:
1). A woman was shot "just a couple blocks from Wrigley Field!" 2) CPD then shot her attacker!
Minimizing the fact that the attacker also fired at the police, Katie Kim was down on the officer's response. Perhaps NBC should have had the other co anchor describe the scenario since Katie also lives in that neighborhood and was too involved to be objective. Looks like Katie is in line to be the next Carol Moron at Ch. 5.
NBC = Nothing But Crap!

Scum Times definitively states offender shoots the victim, then the Scum Times states that the offender allegedly shoots at the police.
I think Scum Times is allegedly reporting news, but the reality is, they are trying to shape public opinion.

Not easy anywhere in this City. The media narrative is disturbing to say the least. That was another heroic act by CPD much like the Sgt who kept perusing offender after being shot. This officers courageous act needs a different narrative. He went after and put away a dangerous individual. Officer we’re glad your safe, great job. Take your time returning!!!!!! Great job!!!!

Box Chevy ........... You are dead right. Spot on my friend. Second time in a matter of weeks CPD has come across a murder in progress.
I feel safer knowing Officers are out there willing to do what is NECESSARY. Policing can be an ugly business and those that don’t have
the stomach for it should stay out of the way. I was taught to keep my partner and myself safe. Give this Officer a medal. Sometimes it
really is kill or be killed out there. His/her body cam should be used for future training.

Groot the Oddity of Our Time. She oversees murder and mayhem through out the city. The Democrat Socialist and the "giver of all things free" does nothing to stop crime and brutality being imposed on its citizens. The pint sized, plump, peal clutching, impish figure is dazed and confused with her soft on crime position regarding Dude, Inc. She is still selling Snake Oil (Social Justice) as the elixir to the public while the Community is being murdered and shot at a horrific rate. What the Hell is going on in Chicago?

As the bodies are stacked and racked over at County, the Imp tells all this is not tolerable, unacceptable, appalled and does not represent Chicago Values. She says the same thing every week. She holds accountability sessions, brow beats the police at every chance, touts social justice and supports the corrupt Kim Foxx. She along with her liberal socialist pals have institutional criminality and chaos to the city. This is who the Mayor really is and this is what she gives to her subjects - the people of Chicago. This is her REFORM platform that she promised and is now delivering to all under her rule.

The stiff from LA always looks uncomfortable at pressers spouting the Party Line - the Big Lie. Beck looks uncomfortable primarily due to the Imp's hand being so far up his ass he thinks he will have a public bowl movement. He too is consistent in his crime prevention solution - more camera's. Nothing about more police, more prosecutions, more lengthy sentences. He wants more camera's. This guy is a real simpleton.

The Social Democrats bringing ruination to another formerly great city near you. Rahm must be laughing his ass off at the Imp.

Refresh my memory here... the City outlawed illegally possessed guns didn’t they?
Did the license priemise check include a No Guns sign violation in the ANOV package?

Running after the bad guy (his last flee) and COPA is chasing after the good guys. Understand they don’t approve of chasing of any kind.
Best thing that could happen to him though, the violent armed parolees freedoms and affordable bonds were going nowhere.

The armed feral seek out these late night spots and it reminded me about the shootout between two non-local armed combatants where nobody was shot. It was at a 4 a.m. bar in Niles on the 6800 block of Milwaukee back in September.

Is it really necessary to stay open until 4 or 5 a.m. ?
Is this for community entertainment venue desert purposes or just locality revenue?
What kind of revenue is generated for a Open Late liquor license anyway, $2-300 a year?

High taxes, no jobs, repeated crime, late night booze, legal weed and tolerated lawlessness.
And only The Police need Reforms.

I Heard the Interim Superintendent describe the offender as an “Armed Individual”

Any person in possession of a weapon on his or her person is an armed individual.

A person actively shooting at another is an armed assailant.

The point is that words are important, and an offenders actions should be described
As strongly as the truth will allow.
