WSJ-Chicago Police Brace for 'Flash Mob' Attacks | |
Truthache User ID: 1114853 United States 06/10/2011 09:10 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | These bizarre and senseless "flash mobs" are the catalyst that will have people and businesses begging for a Police State. I'm not saying that there aren't assholes out there, but They could crack down quite easily with a relatively minor increase in police presence and hard enforcement, but instead they are allowing the problem a room to grow and fester. Dare I say they could even be encouraged by the booming security-industrial complex which can only benefit from increases in bizarre and senseless acts. This is how they will stir up support for more police, more cameras, more equipment, more rigid control and probing and less freedom. Remember, this is Rahm "never let a crisis go to waste" Emanuel. in warm pursuit... |

Clearly white people are being chosen and targeted among the black offenders... why is this not a hate crime?? what would happen if the same group were white people who went to the ghetto and ONLY targeted black people and left white people alone???? yep, you guessed it.. hate crime. Why did the 111th and kedzie wildings not make the news? Sounds like it is time for a KKK revival |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1266067 United States 06/10/2011 09:14 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | What we need now for the city of Chicago is a real tough top cop. I'm talking about someone like Harold Brier, who was Milwaukee's Chief of Police from 1964 to 1984. Much of Milwaukee had some very tough areas that had high crime, similar to Chicago's. During his twenty years of service het kicked ass and took names. He was responsible for cleaning up many of these areas. It was all downhill after he left office. I'm not sure if there many like left in this country. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1413363Well that's not gonna happen Don't forget the police brutality thing that is spreading like wildfire. Cops can't do anything anymore without suffering the consiquences. Sorry, but that's how some people wanted it. Provoke the police, and exploit them a brutal criminals, and now the police officers,what little are left, don't care for the citizens anymore. |

Now it is getting out of hand and can no longer be ignored. Most street corners already have cameras, some with gunshot sensing technology. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1171394[link to chicago.cbslocal.com] Thats how Liberal Chicago is. Nig Gang Bangers are destroying the city, and the media wants you to feel sorry for them. Fuck em. Let the Nigs destroy the city. Meet Dantrel Thomas Leroy Washintons He is one of 20 babies. His momma never knew hid daddy. His momma raised him on welfare stamps. Dantrel committed his first robery at the age of 8 months, shop lifting from his stroller. Dantrel never had a chance. He was forced into a life of crimes, his specialty, robbing white rich people in the Loop. Poor Dantrel, he had no choice but to go on a wilding spree robbing whitey. Whitey oppressed him from birth. Send in Susan Surandon and Opra and Jessie for an ABC CNN Special on how the Gang Bangers are the victims of white oppression. Spike Lee can host it. |

Everyone should carry a piece and this shit would stop real quick. Sadly, the only thing these folks understand is violence. I remember when King got killed back in 1968. Chicago's Black neighborhoods went up for grabs. They started burning their own homes and businesses down and mass rioting and looting was the order of the day. Read about it here. [link to en.wikipedia.org] Old Mayor Daley (a true south-side Irishman) called in the National Guard to control the streets. That was the first and last time Chicago ever had a curfew. No one on the streets after 7:00 PM and gave police the authority a "to shoot to kill any arsonist or anyone with a Molotov cocktail in his hand . . . and . . . to shoot to maim or cripple anyone looting any stores in our city.” The stores that were looted were mostly black stores in black neighborhoods. The rioters mostly targeted white-owned businesses, especially those who were known to sell cheap merchandise at high prices, or engaged in predatory credit practices. Men’s clothing stores were hit hard, as well as liquor, furniture, appliances and food stores. Some stores avoided being looted by writing “soul brother” on their windows to show their support for the rioters.It took two days for the city to be brought under control. |

Sometimes, reality kicks your ass and turns you into a redneck. My sophomore year in a very liberal college in the 'hood, I lived next to the giant fence they had to erect because many years ago, several rapes occured, and the school decided it had to protect itself from "the community." In our orientation session, the first thing the RA's told us was not to sleep next to a window. I awoke to gunfire almost every night I lived there.

I hope this crap dosen't spread to other areas of the city but stuff like this usually does. Perhaps the spread is a good thing, more eyes will open to see the problem for what it is......... The area where this happened is the heart of the South-side enclave where most cops and firemen live. That in itself shows how much balls these clowns have. I live near there. I heard sirens all morning long. Must have been the police response. Kedzie was flooded from 87th St. to 99th St. in the morning. Traffic lights and electricity were out in different parts of the SW side also contributing to the opportunity for flash mob activity. With the communication network they have established through texting, it's easy to mobilize and attack. Combine that with an under-funded and under-manned police force, unemployment, welfare, and an entitlement mentality, there is a recipe for disaster. You can't do things you used to do say 10 years ago, like leaving your car or home unlocked. Home security systems are not quick enough to apprehend home invaders, as they bash in the front door now and are gone in 1 minute. I will not have a gun in my home, but everyone needs to beef up their own security in the way they see appropriate. I've got 2 big dogs with a mean streak and an attitude towards strangers. Don't leave 1st floor windows unlocked. Use air conditioning instead of leaving windows open. Screens are easy to cut open. Use your deadbolts and reinforce door frames with door guards to prevent kicking in. Also use reinforced strike plates with long screws. Most of all, be aware of your surroundings at all times. It is not advisable to sit idly in your car, or on a park bench texting on an iPad, iPhone, iPod, Blackberry or whatever. Go to the store, keep your purse tight under your arm, do your shopping and get the heck out and home. Don't invite trouble. A friend of mine does work in the hood and he's not afraid of the adults. He's afraid of the youngsters 12 and under who will think nothing of blowing your head off at the drop of a dime. Be wary of the young kids laughing, joking and cutting up walking down the middle of the street. Just a heads up. Most of all, don't show signs of fear. Look them in the eye as they pass. |

People will not help, they sill stand there and watch. The perps will get more sympathy than you.
