Bad Idea Inbound

And the restrictions in place are going to make it next-to-useless:

  • A sharply divided City Council committee on Tuesday voted to give the Chicago Police Department a powerful tool to disperse “teen takeovers” just in time for Memorial Day weekend — which typically marks the start of the traditional summer surge of violent crime.

"powerful tool" they say.

  • Public Safety Committee Chair Brian Hopkins (2nd) muscled through the ordinance he revised and championed, empowering Chicago’s police superintendent to declare three-hour-long “snap curfews” anywhere in the city to disperse groups of 20 or more after 30 minutes’ warning.

    The final vote was 10-7, even after Mayor Brandon Johnson reiterated his opposition amid fear that the changes negotiated with the police department do not go far enough to prevent a costly court challenge.

Does this "snap curfew" have geographical limitations like the Gang Loitering Ordinance did? Sight and Sound was order back in the day after numerous court battles.

And thirty minutes warnings will just give the violators a chance to go mobile and reassemble somewhere else. CPD is going to be purely reactionary during this and the kids would be able to outmaneuver the current brain trust at 35th Street with ease, especially if you have this moron running things:

  • If the full Council approves the ordinance, the police department’s Chief of Patrol Jon Hein has assured the Public Safety Committee that it will be enforced constitutionally, judiciously and only after assembled groups of young people ignore police orders to voluntarily disperse and after “children start attacking one another.”

Hey dumbass - if the "children" start attacking one another, they're battery offenders at the very least and subject to immediate arrest for Mob Action. 

But no one in the political arena is ever going to give that order. Hopefully, the "children" don't run into a Concealed Carrier during one of their wildings....but we can't say we wouldn't be amused if they did.

Meanwhile, the ACLU is salivating along with numerous connected law firms.

Here is an idea. Arrest them, charge them with the highest possible charge, then incarcerated them. Then take away welfare entitlements from mama. That alone will result in ass whoppings. Then guess what, no more wildings. Hit them where it hurts. .

Arrest the teens, fine the parents/guardians and pursue prosecutions. Stop only dispersals and stop dismissing cases. Consequences for bad decisions/choices and lack of parental supervision must be the objective to send a message and assist in preventing out of control wildings that won’t be tolerated.

They have created a temporary arena, so if the "children" start attacking each other, the correct course if action is to throw various melee weapons into the crowd and let them fight . . . no?

But I forgot we can’t do that it might actually solve the problem. Let’s intact a curfew that CPD can’t enforce and no one will adhere to. As for the city council another complete joke.

OT,
Hey SCC you recall the kid that fell 21 feet from bleachers at a Cubs away game? Well the police for that city have arrested a 21 year old for buying beers for the underage male who decided to try and fly off the bleachers.
The stadium and local police used in stadium video to prove the 21 year old was buying beers and handing them to underage bird boy……..
Question?
So why has there never been an arrest of the school teacher who shot herself at White Sucks game? There was plenty of Sox video but no one looked at it?
But there has been a civil law suit filed against the White Sox?

Superintendent Snelling and his staff were mentioned by a Alderman on the news. I started laughing. The Superintendent has no idea on how to stop what’s going on. Why not have zero tolerance with crime in these incidents. The people going down town are committing all kinds of crimes and very few arrests. No one has respect for the Police because we are watching crime go on and no one is being arrested.

Now they’re put in a position that needs a real police officer that has experience dealing with shit heads to keep the peace. The exempts of this job have about as much experience doing real police work as a PPO.

Typical… you sound like a salty (very very salty) old vet that is scared of change and/or trying new things.

“Hey dumbass - if the ‘children’ start attacking one another, they're battery offenders at the very least and subject to immediate arrest for Mob Action”

That is one of the dumbest things I’ve ever read and you’re usually pretty good at posting… but this take is dumb! At this point it’s too late as they’re actually trying to prevent batteries from occurring and keep innocent bystanders from attack. Guys like you there’s no winning with. You’re mad when there’s no change or reaction to the wildings or you’re mad that they give something a try. I’ll look forward to the other saltines feedback to my comment and their negativity.

Officers need to be concern each time the city council, Cook County State’s Attorney office, the department or any other entity give CPD officers authority to do anything. Last month it was certain arrests without the approval of felony review, and this month it’s dispersing youth. They are removing themselves from the liability.

"At this point it’s too late as they’re actually trying to prevent batteries from occurring and keep innocent bystanders from attack."

- You proved SCC's point which was implementing a curfew once they become battery offenders is useless. Your point does not make sense at all. How will implementing a curfew after they start fighting "prevent batteries"? Go back and READ the article carefully: "it will be enforced constitutionally, judiciously and only after assembled groups of young people ignore police orders to voluntarily disperse and after “children start attacking one another." " According to this statement, the curfew will be enforced AFTER the "children start attacking one another." So once they start fighting, why implement a curfew? Just lock them up for reckless conduct, battery, mob action, etc. I have a feeling you're one of Hein's cronies trying to defend his dumbass strategy.

The expose is going to be provided to multiple media outlets worldwide. The Feeding Frenzy of incompetence by the IDF investigators followed by both vehicle and drone multiple Officers assigned to the unit and for lack of a better term, BLATANTLY blowing off even the most simple and basic assignments. There are embarrassing video and OEMC recordings of extreme childish bickering between Officers over even the most simple tasks and not responding as a trained professional. In particular one highlighted and embarrassing officer was daily and repeatedly observed leaving the airport in a marked squad until finally being called out by lazy Supervisors and in return keeping Unit 050 safe from terrorism from his home couch. When this report comes to light expect dumps and in some cases terminations. Get ready kids this is a mess.

Now kids, what we need are "safe spaces" for our yutes to gather and talk about their difficulties in life.

If that doesn't work, we need a "safe space" where these kids can go and the rest of us are safe. Like maybe let them use an abandoned warehouse or we can construct some tall apartment-like buildings. They can have fight club there. They can take out all their frustrations, anger, fighting, shooting and stabbing in one place. We can call it something like a "Containment Policy" where we keep the people and folks who don't know how to act civilized in one place...... wait, didn't we already have that? they were called projects.

Without a doubt what you propose would be effective. These drive by shootings could also be mostly eliminated if the cops could stop and frisk. Neither of these solutions would be supported by the people you work for. Sure they would be willing to take the credit for the success, but they wouldn’t support the coppers doing the work. The cops are going to try to arrest one of these “kids just having fun”. The cops are going to get swarmed, the cops are going to fight for their lives, the jeering crowd will have their phones out, the worthless media “will have questions”, and the cops will get screwed like Hogan’s goat. Better strategy might be to park in a safe place and then pick up the pieces.
