How Tall Are You?
We've heard of some dumb reasons to shoot someone, but this is easily top ten:
- Two teenage boys were shot to death after asking the suspect how tall he was when they were buying candy from a store.
The incident occurred at approximately 5 p.m. on Saturday June 20 after three teenage boys went to a store in South Chicago to buy some candy and ended up having a brief encounter with 19-year-old Laroy Battle inside the establishment.
“The victims were walking into the store, they saw Battle, he was standing in line while at the store and the victims commented that Battle, he was quite tall, and they asked him how tall he was and hoped to be that tall someday,” said Deputy Chief of Detectives Brendan Deenihan “Unfortunately, we will never even see the full growth of these poor children.”
The three teenage boys then left the store and proceeded to walk home together when police say that Battle approached them and began shooting.
And surprise surprise:
- Police said he had a previous conviction for aggravated unlawful use of a weapon, for which he received probation.
Well, he's 19 now, so that previous conviction must have been in adult court seeing as how it was public knowledge. Another great job by the office of the perpetually offended Crimesha. Two more bodies added to her death count.
UPDATE: He's 6'3" or 6'4" You can read the article and find out.

My question is this: How tall was he? Just asking - might add some perspective.
So? How tall is he?
Sickening
Had many encounters with members of the Battle family in my 22 years and none of them were good. That is one defective gene pool.
Forgive me if I take stories like this with a grain of salt. Maybe it's because of how many times I've seen robbery cases where a guy "hit me out of nowhere and stole my stuff!" develop into drug deals gone bad after investigation.
Its just non stop bullshit with Groot and Fox . These people have to go NOW. What the hell is wrong with the citizens of this place ? How the living fuck can people just sit back and watch these fools help to steal the lives from so many young black kids. There should be riots and looting at their homes.
“The victims were walking into the store, they saw Battle, he was standing in line while at the store and the victims commented that Battle, he was quite tall, and they asked him how tall he was and hoped to be that tall someday,” said Deputy Chief of Detectives Brendan Deenihan “Unfortunately, we will never even see the full growth of these poor children.”
Anyone - ANYONE - who believes this was the exchange prior to Battle lighting-up these studs, is a consummate City Hall/CPD Kool-Aid drinker.
And Jesus H. Christ, Deenihan!! How on earth do you look at yourself in the mirror after babbling such drivel? Won’t get to see the “full growth of these poor children”. ROTFLMFAO!!! I think we all knew where these kids were heading.
This story made me think of Mr. Quackers, the Roger's Park shoot and run like a duck psycho. Doubt that this goof is the same guy but I was curious as to any new developments concerning those unsolved murders.
"The victims were walking into the store, they saw Battle, he was standing in line while at the store and the victims commented that Battle, he was quite tall, and they asked him how tall he was and hoped to be that tall someday..."
Oh, man. Long ago, I was a little kid walking around the block, and here came a bigger, heavier, older kid whom I was scared of for good reason. It's called "the neighborhood bully." I tried complimenting my way past him, and unfortunately I still remember what BS I made up to flatter this violent IQ 70.
That's OK - it worked that time, but about a week later he threw me down a flight of marble stairs unprovoked and I got a bad concussion.
I see where "tall" came from. They were trying, too. Didn't work either. That "male" was a real s__tbag - everything centered around the belt and belt buckle of the saggin torn-up pants, gun getting caught on the dangling everything- and those dead eyes.
...and so often when you see one like that you're looking at the finished product. Never going anywhere except jail or grave.
Stay safe.
"How tall are you?"
>Pop-Pop-Poppity-Pop-Pop-Ka-Pop!<
Keep an eye on and keep guns away from angry,
lashing-out poison bulltoad Groot because it
manifests similar such uncontrolled outbursts.
When will Crimesha and these judges be held accountable??!
He is a psychopath.
He could have been serving time in prison, and then those boys would have still been alive.
The Candy Store Killings
Yet another reason Trump needs to intervene.
Unjust Foxx adds two dead children to her and Toni's political legacy.
Exactly whose lives really matter too these Democrats?
Anyone out there sharing the outrage??
The "free" press will do their best to ignore all of his previous arrests because their masters must not be shamed.
Probation for Aggravated use of weapon!
And you want to know why the streets of Chicago are running in blood?
Grab Kim FOXX and Chief Judge Evans and drag their asses out to one of the shootings of these children!
Put them face to face with the victims and families!
And stop crying we are only locking up brown and black members of community!
If these members of community fire a weapon at anyone they need to be locked up!
Not given bonds to do it again!
Not given probation to do it again!
Kim FOXX is more worried about the Lynching that are happening throughout the USA!
She has her head so far up her own ass it’s amazing she has a Law Degree?
Ask her if she gets enough air up in that rectum?
She is pandering to the voters! Just to keep the voters!
She cries about the mass murders by law enforcement! The murders that never existed!
Evans, Groot, Dart are all trying reversely to wash that blood off their hands. Kim on the other hands is taking baths in the victim’s blood she loves it. The younger the better is her motto. Not t old enough to vote so who cares if they die.
They kill each other all of the time over Facebook post so this surprises you?
Mayor BugEyes could ban buying candy.
Now, kees me you fool!!!!
This sort of news doesn’t sell t-shirts on Amazon.
Not to be calloused but in the newspapers these victims were described as kids who asked their parents for a permission to go to the corner store and buy candy. When I read this I’m thinking the victims were 6 or 7 year olds but they were 16 and 17. What a bunch of bs and people buy this. I don’t even believe that “how tall are you” question lead to the shooting. It’s gang related duh.
SCC, either you or heyjackass should have a Crimesha death tally board.
Keep track of the numbers attributed to her failed social justice experiment.
and just where is the fake father?
Don’t forget,
Police are the problem.
The politicians and the media are going to have to work overtime to flip this back on the po-po.
The question “are you standing tall” is street vernacular asking if you are carrying a gun.old school jargon.
I know he has to speak up, but the "Community" .... Deenihan comments that the community stepped up and identified the offender from the store camera footage. Some other gang banger or old girlfriend that had a beef with the offender probably gave a call.
Sure would be interesting to see Battle’s juvie record..
Sure would be interesting to see the facts behind his “probation”
court record for Aggr Unlawful Use of a Weapon recently..
Sure would like to see those families and a lawyer call out
FOXX for her handling of that case and WHY their children
are DEAD because of FOXX’s incompetence and “restorative
justice” mantra while disobeying Illinois law.....in front of a
press conference!
I could see him shooting those kids if they asked how much he weighed, but come on, his height?
The tagline is what about the children that’s what the Democrats say! OK I like the Democrats what about the children what in the fuck are you going to do about all of these children being shot and killed? What about all the innocent blood spread everywhere due to your policies? Do you any of y’all let the Democrats go to the funeral homes to the hospitals to check on these people the families, then offer apologies because you’re such an idiot and you allow this to happen you are all the chief executive officers how do you city of Chicago, cook county, State of Illinois absolutely positively every last one of you are complete failures other failures, if you weren’t working for the city county and state if you worked in regular industry your ass would’ve been throwing out a long time ago, would be nice if the taxpayers the law abiding would be in together go to city hall county building state house drag every last one of you outside, Throw y’all on the street everyone elected Democrats that have caused all of this all the blood shed all the tears directly at your doorstep and you do nothing!
Sorry to say my mistake it’s not that you do nothing what do you do do is further go after the police officers work day in and day out tirelessly, to try to help some people but you bastardized them that is what you do every last one is your scam along with your compliant media which is part and parcel of the Democratic Party, the people on the titanic had a better chance, And when you start taxing the pensions a lot of people are in a bubble about staying here or going I was just out with a few retirees the other day they said it happens we’re out and that includes myself the final death blow to the city of Chicago State Illinois crooks county!
Remember when dude got popped after he commented at a club set in front of the ladies that ole boy only had 3 inches of manhood. Dude caught 2 rounds for speaking the truth. This all occurred in the commertity. HUH?
Another case of a repeat violent offender Let’m Go Cook County should be held accountable for.
Short angry mayors don’t dare question the lack of prosecutions, the emptiness of the jails, or the closed courtrooms.
Lawlessness isn’t even being addressed and the public is being stifled by the FakeNews.
Dennihan’s “poor children” comment was weak, pandering and pathetic.
At least we know he studied SpecialEd’s Command Handbook or was that coming from some Rahms Kids pamphlet?
Stick to policing and save the politics for the elected.
Larri’s $1000 face mask social distancing and $1000 No Guns Allowed Sign violation ANOV’s go uncollected.
Word on the street is the “offender” got jumped by the two “Victims”, “ offender came back with a gun. Must be one of those victim is the offender
I’m 6’5. You best believe if someone asks me how tall I am I’m bringing the thunder. The nerve
Yeah ok how tall are you my ass probably asked who you with. I'm sure the 2 victims weren't angels just going to the store for candy.
More blood on Crinesha hands. Her ideology of "too many black and brown in prisons" resulted directly in these 2 deaths. If she only did her job and kept the criminal behind bars those 2 would still be alive. So it's not the bad Police killing the black children but CRIMESHA.
Fort Myers police officer Williams is now facing a third-degree felony charge for failure to report child abuse and neglect (if failure to notify DCFS about child not restraint in a car seat a month prior to crash justify charging officer, than it should be easy as hell to charge CRIMESHA for her failure to do job that constantly results in dead bodies.)......maybe we just need FEDS to take a harder look.
Until they jail these hardcore “ trigger boys”... this will continue. The politicians in charge are soft on crime.. this is the perfect shit storm.

This is a cually a good analogy . She obviously has mental issues too. She has just learned to keep the violent tendencies at bay.
Tony , call in sick the next two weeks
you should be in the top job
Tony make a statement that Police are not the problem before you leave
now Brown wants to violate rights of blacks and clear corners
ask him how he can violate rights of blacks and clear corners
not on my watch you dummies black folks have rights
and the store video showed the kids shoplifting their asses off while inside....perhaps Mr Battle was store security.
I’m not buying this story. How old did they say the victims were, 16, 17? Yah, go pick any sampling of on hundred 16 and 17 year olds in the ghetto, that’s prime dope boy age. I have a feeling there’s more to the story than “oh gee golly I sure hope they have my favorite candy bar. Holy smokes, how tall are you mister!?” And then they’re murderer. These two little angels probably had hits out on them, or they were talking shit to this giant troglodyte and he had enough of their non sense and made sure they’d never talk shit again.
I suspect there is more to the story.

I still say they were BLM/Antifa hits during a cop trial. An old man walking his dog and a gay Jewish kid who never harmed anyone. I know the dicks want this one and I'm still pulling for them. Fucking savage! I bet he's in CHOP now being called a "Protestor" by Snowflake Nation.
Put, "How Tall Are You" on a red hat, or a BLM style T Shirt
I smell BS!

I usually don't Comment. But to the Stupid MF's above if you r the police PLEASE STFU. If you don't know the truth please don't open your mouth to prove u are F'ing ignorant. Sometimes we shoot ourselves in the foot. If your statement makes it to the news u caused US CPD a unforced error due to your stupidity. PLEASE STFU and stew in your stupidity.

No longer "he/zhe," or "she/xhe," or any of this agonizing nonsense. Just the dismissive wrist-flick of "it."
I like it.

Dude, you are way off base and I seriously doubt you are otj. Your comment sickened me.
First, Deenihan is a good guy and a good boss.
What did you want him to say? "Yeah, they're dead. Next!"
Deenihan was professional and expressed the feelings of most, if not all, police officers who have handled the senseless murder of a fellow human being. Deenihan did us, the CPD, proud when he spoke to the news media about this occurrence and he handled himself much better than the parade of near-illiterate exempts who, in recent times, have represented the CPD to the news media.
And, to doubt that an offender could be motivated to shoot and kill two human beings because he was asked a simple question, it is obvious you know little or nothing about the lives and code of some people who are members of a societal segment other than your own.
Also, there was nothing, about these two senseless murders and/or Deenihan's all-around excellent handling of the news conference concerning those same two murders, deserving of your ROTFLMFAO.
Another killer doing what he knows best = killing his own Community members. One could be sad to hear about the killings but its Chicago. Chicago is a Democrat City so its leaders tolerate these things. It's ok because its social justice on the south and west sides. The Murder mayor doesn't care, she's got the Dummy from Dallas to beat up on and blame the police.
Trump offered help to the city and State but the morbidly obese pig and the crazy mixed up Murder Queen said they don't take help and leadership advice from the Prez. No the fat Pig and the Midget have got a handle on all the killings and skyrocketing shootings in Crazy Town.
You have to suspend your belief system in order to listen to the nonsense and keep from laughing at their bullshit. Only the Fake New believes them. No one with a brain believes in the Fake News. So with this coming 4th of July weekend coming, I wonder how many family members are willingly ready to give up their sons and daughters and feed the murder beast. Feel comfortable to know their safety and lives rest in the hands of a fat pig and a midget.
Me, I must be stupid.
I though this headline was about Lori L. Lightfoot.
I would guess had a PO been on the scene and shot the killer, BLM would be protesting....on behalf of the killer. Strange times we live in.
It may well be fake, but "taking the last chicken wing on the plate" has happened to many times too. Its the principle, the knuckleheads dont need a whole lot of excuse for murder.
Hollywood glamorizes "Gangster thug life", music too. For a shot at being an O.G. in middle age you have to earn it. That and be lucky enough to survive.
POOR DENIHAN
going for the 1st deputy seat.
BARB west not very helpful in crime fighting she talks a good game but being the police was never her specialty.

What kind of dumbassery is this?
"If your statement makes it to the news"
If you're worried about the news covering some anonymous poster on a blog you should do better at your day job. What do you do, make tiktok dance videos to show community engagement? Because I don't know who else believes what comes out in press releases about victims being little angels that were 'buying candy.'
That whole story smells like ass
News said kids asked their parents to go buy candy at the corner store. Kids????????? 16 and 17 year olds. Ok all BS. I thought the kids were 6 and 7. Drug deal or something else gone bad. Stop the bullshit.
As other have said already, I have doubts that all these kids did was ask Dude how tall he was. Either they had some previous “history” with this guy or they said or did something else. Not saying they deserved to get shot, but I’m willing to bet real money that there is more to the story.
How tall is he? Are they sure they wernt talking about the guys, ah, package? This story is about as stupid as the trannie who got killed by the 18 year old Hispanic youth who found out the trannie was a trannie. Was that before or after the 18 year old got a hummer? Come on, Hellen Keller would know what went on there, but as I always say, te Department said I was too stupid to make Detective. I mean, EVERYBODY made Detective off the test, right?
It is easy to understand why the left looks the other way on the issue of these shootings/homicides when you look at it in terms of the upcoming Presidential election. The left needs all hands on deck before the election. So they empty out the jails in order to create havoc in the cities to make President Trump look bad. Besides, the left knows those same criminals will be voting democratic in November.
This is the left's last gasp, it is all or nothing, with nothing being the gallows after their treason trials.
Candy ? Was it a skittles run ? Just axin.

Back in my old high school days, some Latin Kings in a car, pulled up to a kid on the street, and asked him, "Yo, what you be about?" He responded, "I'm about 5'10" or 5'11"." They then proceeded to beat the shit out of him. Too bad he didn't carry a gun back then!
Most 16 and 17 year teen males just travel to their destination. They might inform their parents, but not seek permission. 😑
Generally, 16 and 17 year teen males aren't chummy with 19 year old adult males, unless they're friends, gang members, schoolmates, work colleagues, family friend or dating (Ha!). 😑
Height questions are more commonly asked by elementary and middle school age kids. 😑
I'm sure old timers like me remember the two kids that shot up at a bus stop talking to each other in American Sign Language. I believe it was around North and Kedzie and a group of bangers driving by thought they were rivals throwing up sign. So nothing surprises me.
Yeah, I questioned the alleged height question myself but who knows, maybe they were doing a tic tok height challenge video in da hood. And they never get the appropriate licenses and approval to be filming these things
The 18 year old Hispanic male is an adult, not a youth. Most men would react, if their "woman" was transgendered. Yelling and punching is expected, but not murder. 😑
That short stack at only 6'3''... Not like those '6'6'' studs mind you.
Tall/Short lives matters?
Where is Kimmy-Klusterfuck in all of this?!
"Unfortunately, we will never even see the full growth of these poor children.”
Uh...whole place covered in broken glass and full of bullet holes and smells like urine as it is...
The reasonable man who comments on such matters is simply speaking the observable truth.
