CWB Doing Great Work

Yesterday, they called Conehead a liar and proved it....again:

  • Mayor Brandon Johnson on Wednesday once again defended his decision to disconnect the city’s gunfire detection network, claiming that a University of Chicago study found CPD responded “four times faster to the city’s most serious 911 calls” in some South and West Side neighborhoods after the city ended its relationship with ShotSpotter. But that is not what the study says.

And what does it actually show?

  • Robert Vargas, a sociology professor who leads the UChicago Justice Project, told CWB Chicago the study “was motivated by a specific set of claims made by elected officials that decommissioning ShotSpotter would have serious consequences for police response times.”

    However, Vargas also acknowledged that before analyzing response times, his students removed all 911 calls involving shots fired from the city’s dataset. In other words, the study’s conclusions about faster response times, if accurate, did not include gunfire calls, the only type of emergency ShotSpotter was designed to address and the specific response times elected officials had been discussing.

They took out ALL of the gunfire calls? Seriously? 

So this is yet another "Higher Education" bullshit program similar in nature to the crooked Northwestern "innocence" crap where they bribed convicts, lied under oath, slanted reporting, solicited perjury, aided and abetted by members of the Chicago media.

And the day before CWB had a little retrospective on fifteen years of wilding:

  • What has gotten into kids these days? These “teen trends” and “teen takeovers?” This didn’t used to happen, did it? Well, as it turns out, it’s been happening a lot longer than even we remembered, stretching back at least 15 years across three mayors and eight police superintendents. Many of the 50-plus people arrested during this past weekend’s three mob-related incidents weren’t even born when it all started.

    The problem, it seems, isn’t kids these days. The problem is a steady refusal by mayor after mayor to directly address what’s happening.

They recalled McCompStats lies about closing a beach because of "heat," attacks on bikers, the Mag Mile, Millennium Park....like we said, fifteen YEARS of mayhem, much of it covered in our archives.

Give them a visit and read the only decent crime reporting in Chicago any more.

"The problem is a steady refusal by mayor after mayor to directly address what’s happening."
The reason is the Democrat Party is so entrenched here the politicians know they don't have to answer to anyone as they know the voters here are so apathetic and some are downright stupid there will be no drive or crusade to question their incompetentcy and fraud. They have a lot of supporters and donors though, in the "pay to play" program. It's obvious the local news media goes along with their corruption. Mayor BLM Brandon lacks the ability to solve Chicago's embarrassing crime problems and was unable to manage even his own personal problems. One thing that is always constant, is the Democrats always stick together no matter how bad their ideas are. Just look at Joe Biden, he was senile and incompetent when he was running for President but the Democrats backed him. Don't expect anything new to happen except for new taxes.

Another day, another night

Another tasking of no delight

The Chalkers Guild awaits the call

To chalk them where they happen to fall

As time goes by in typical fashion

And various vigorous violent passions

Expressed in bleedings devoid of concern

To abide by the adage some have chose to spurn

FIRST, Do No Harm.

Oak Park terminates Flock license plate reader contract

Four Oak Park trustees rejected a motion that would’ve turned the cameras off for 90 days, shutting down the program outright

Those trustees cited concerns over...the potential for the cameras to be used for immigration enforcement in violation of both state law and village sanctuary ordinances.

“This is what democracy looks like,” [one] said.

https://www.oakpark.com/2025/08/07/oak-park-terminates-flock-license-plate-reader-contract/

"Democracy" also looks like hoopties with absolutely opaque window tints, blasting through town at 100, headed for I-290 after their latest felony, not being chased by the constrained, under strength, DEI'd police department.

...and who's that shooting wildly for two blocks as another gang funeral travels west down Madison?

...and God forbid that any illegal alien gets brought up short.

...but it's fine for village cars to drive around with sensors on, hunting amongst the residents for parking violators and expired stickers. That brings in revenue.

Honk! Honk! Clown World!

Democrats again...

I remember when flash mobs would just get together and sing a song, then everyone would go on their merry way. The Oakland street takeovers of ten years ago became the model that has now infected most urban centers.

I remember when you could come and go from the Taste of Chicago into Greater Grant Park. The roving teens forced the city to put a fence around it. Then it nearly died off altogether. I don't live in the city anymore, and I haven't been back since before the Scamdemic.

Let the city die.

A kid who grew up in Oak Park was awarded the Pulitzer Prize in journalism for his work at the New York Times. Subject, Donald Trump. The writer is Ben Protess, son of David Protess who ran Northwestern U’s Innocence Project. In reporting the story in Oak Park’s Wednesday Journal the reporter writes a brief bio of David Protess with no mention that he was fired from Northwestern and the $40 million that was paid out Alstory Simon for his framing by the Project for a murder to get the murderer out of prison.

Wildings started in the summer of ‘08 at Taste of Shitcago. Chiraqi youth were empowered to do whatever the fuck they wanted with the rise of Obama that summer and Shortshsnks chose to tolerate it, aside from authorizing OT for various scare crow policing initiatives. Only upside of this is that I invested my earned OT and was able to leave Shitcago in ‘21.

Lots of government to fund university studies with little or no results. Lots of government money wasted on academic brilliance with little or no results to better the lives of law abiding American citizens. How about advocating effective crime reduction strategies that actually work. One old fashioned program, affordable housing for convicts known as the penitentiary works every time time putting those recidivist in the pokey with truth in sentencing provisions. And progressive causes such as food sustenance, medical care, homelessness, democrat voter registration and assorted social service can be provided at little or no cost in the big house.

This downhill slide seems to coincide with the ascension of 0bozo to the Presidency. I feel he was installed to bring about the downfall of our country. He may even be a candidate to be the antichrist spoken of in the book of Revelation. He express an interest in heading the U.N. at one time. Team him up with the religious leader, the false prophet, and there you go, the great tribulation of end times. Could it be the Pope, he has a Chicago connection and both are White Sox fans.

Who cares that ShotSpotter contract was cancelled? I do! I'm grateful, truly grateful. Think about it: how many "innocents" are picked up off the ground after responding to a spotter call? Now, you're sent to a job because of the technology you may have to provide first aid to "the victim". No ShotSpotter you just find ole boy laid out all kilted. No first aid required. "Cut the paper" and move on. No witnesses except the dude that called in the stiff and you're done. Besides culling the herd it reduces resources provided. I say: it's a beautiful world. Even the dems don't really care that their people are dying. Who would have thought, beautiful.

Over 10 years ago they would have the lakefront bike detail start earlier than scheduled (before Memorial Day), just to post everyone at Chicago and State to keep the mobs from getting off the red line. Exempts, lieutenants, sergeants, P.Os all shoving the idiots back in to the train cars til the doors closed. The ones who were already at street level were barred from entering the McDonald's by the (black) manager and (black) security. The manager would stand outside like a nightclub bouncer choosing which customers he would allow and which he would prohibit entry. There was a (black) lady outside looking at all the roving mobs of young black teenagers and she shared her theory. "This is all the crack babies grown up without no home training."
I remember the news vans and cameras recording all afternoon but in the evening and night time news programs none of them showed all the pushing and shoving at Chicago and State...

Inside Joyce Mitchell’s bleak, reclusive life 10 years after she helped convicted killer lovers escape Dannemora

New photos show Joyce Mitchell living a bleak, reclusive life in upstate New York nearly 10 years to the day after she helped her alleged lovers — convicted killers Richard Matt and David Sweat — escape from Clinton maximum-security prison in Dannemora, NY.

Neighbors in sleepy Dickinson told The Post they rarely see the disgraced 61-year-old or her head-scratchingly devoted husband, Lyle — whose names remain tainted across the North Country a decade after the jailbreak and 23-day manhunt captivated the nation...

“She is not regarded well around here,” said Connie Paquin, the owner of Mo’s Bar and Grill in Malone, 18 miles north of the Mitchell’s rural, two-story home.

“Nobody can really believe what she did,” said Paquin. “Everybody around here thinks she really should have got more time than she got.”

Sounds like the data manipulation done to global temperature records back at the beginning of the "climate change" horseshit. The data didn't fit the model, so they modified the data.

Then removed the links to the original dataset so it was hard to locate and prove otherwise.

Whenever someone comes up with a "study", the results should be reproducible with an independent analysis. If they're not, then it's total bullshit. BASIC Statistical Analysis... But yeah, if we're talking UC, then ignore their claims - they hired Bill Ayers, et. al so we know their biases.
