Conehead Supports Wilding

For all the noise politicians are making about battling the "teen takeovers," guess who isn't a fan?

  • Despite a Memorial Day weekend marred by teen takeovers turned violent, Mayor Brandon Johnson said Wednesday that stricter curfew and parental responsibility laws are not the answer to the perennial problem plaguing Chicago.

    Johnson said 15 arrests were made early Sunday after a car veered into five Chicago police officers and injured them as they tried to disperse an unruly crowd of youths gathered on the Near West Side. But those arrests, he added, did not prevent an even bigger crowd from overtaking the 57th Street Beach in Hyde Park and spilling onto Lake Shore Drive on Memorial Day.

    That tells the mayor throwing the book at young people and their parents is not the answer to the problem of unruly gatherings summoned by social media.

Here we go again with the "You can't arrest your way out of these situations" bullshit.

Yes you can - you just have to be consistent with it. Every. Single. Time.

This guy gets it:

  • Former Chicago Police Supt. Garry McCarthy’s hard-nosed approach to unruly groups of young people largely succeeded in controlling the flash mobs that plagued Michigan Avenue during then-Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s tenure.

    “I didn’t have a mayor like Brandon Johnson who made excuses,” McCarthy said. “Let’s stop calling them teen takeovers. That is sending the wrong message. That sounds cute. These are mob actions. … There needs to be some sort of accountability for not just the kids but the parents and elected officials. Permissiveness is not working. It’s never worked. All it does is cause bad behavior.”

McStreetlights was always a secret fan of the blog and here he is almost quoting us about rewarding bad behavior causing more bad behavior. He was also the candy-ass who mothballed the LRAD despite it being the best available tool for dispersing crowds.

So today BLM Brandon is meeting with the Pope to discuss: delivering justice for the most vulnerable (like the victims being shot in Chicago?), voting rights (whom in Chicago is being denied the right to vote?), being against the war in Iran and President Trump (would he rather have Iran nuke us in the future?), reparations (how much do we pay for people who were never wronged?, immigration ( how many illegal dependents should we keep paying for?), The list goes on. Mayor BLM has no business in a meeting with the Pope while his City is in chaos. The Federal Government provides Ambassadors through the State Department to deal with foreign dignitaries. Maybe the Pope will figure out BLM Brandon is a flimflam man who is taking the opportunity to deflect the heat off of himself and get that photo op.

It's clear as day that Conehead only looks out for his own "folks" no matter what crimes they commit. Honestly punishing them for their crimes is never considered, and it's blatantly obvious as to why.

Honestly, the road back from the current situation is a long, hard road. It's been 12 years roughly since the grammar school picture of the thug made the rounds. All these kids grew up under the hands off policies. They're expecting the same and won't go down quietly. Nor will the street takeover crowd. Not sure one mayor in a single term can fix it. Not a sure a mayor who tries can get a second term either. The "my community" crowd won't support it. It's a long climb, but if nothing is done now a new generation is right behind this one...

So forgive my CPS education here. If 15 arrests did not deter an even larger crowd later then arresting is clearly not the answer but when a gun crime is committed despite robust gun laws, how is more gun laws the answer?

Most Americans gathered on Memorial day to honor the ultimate sacrifices made by the Men and Women of our respected Armed Services protecting our freedoms, our civilized democracy. Chicago's public educated youth gathered in swarms and mobs to honor our nation's Heroes by exercising their right to smoke weed and consume top shelf hydration while chronically never gonna get a job unemployed, to violate laws and civilized norms at will, to challenge and to disrespect any and all lawful authority, to exercise their right to collect unlimited government entitlements, to damage other people's property for fun without consequence, to threaten others by violating their civil rights by actual violence or threat of violence, to conduct unlawful gunplay on the public way, and to preserve their right to a for free no strings attached public defender when it gets criminally justice involved real.

All the 57th street public beach shooting and insurrection acting out occurred just blocks from the O'Bauma East German blockhouse-looking learing center. Witness your smarter academically driven failed public policy in that I'm better and more educated than you university community of Hyde Park on display. And these ignorant eyes closed shut dummies will provide legal aid to the perpetrators of violence in and around campus via their innocence social justice project. Reap what your diverse academic community sows. Book smart and thuggish lifestyle dumb.

A suggestion to stop unruly mobs of teens from coming downtown or to the beaches…have Mayor Brandon Johnson and his army of security guards show up when this occurs.
Have the reverends and pastors show up and move the mob to the Red Line to go back to their neighborhoods. Call the CFD and use water cannons to disburse the mob.
Spending the summer behind bars would put a dent in this activity.

The mayor and voters of Chicago want CPD to stand down. They voted for candidates who wanted to defund the police. Many are not saying it directly, but that is the message they are sending by voting for these progressive mayors and governors. Lets stand down together and see how bad this can really get. Fourth of July ought to be a real litmus test here. Lets just make sure that bucktooth Brand Dumb gets full credit.

Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara, resigned Tuesday after an investigation found that he had interfered with a probe into his condu
Mayor Jacob Frey said he accepted O’Hara’s resignation.

“This is not about being intolerant of mistakes — everyone makes mistakes, including me,” Frey said at a news conference Tuesday evening. “But what I can’t allow is a breach of trust. When you serve as chief of the Minneapolis Police Department, trust is not secondary to the job; it is the job. And when trust is broken, it becomes extremely difficult to continue leading effectively.”

The matter began last year when the mayor’s office received an anonymous complaint alleging that O’Hara had engaged in sexual relationships with city employees. An outside investigation concluded several months ago and found that the allegations were unsubstantiated.

and blamed President Nixon for the city's problems.
