For you scanner lovers out there. I have an android scanner app Downtown is Chicago Police District 1 zones 16 and 17. A couple fire trucks went racing by at about 1am. other than that very very quiet. No sign of anything really going on right now in my vicinity. |

Primordial (OP) User ID: 352739 United States 05/18/2012 04:38 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | sweet! thanks op! Quoting: Anonymous Coward 15245209 I'll be outside listening. I'm 40 mins. out, but I'm sure I'll catch something, I've been seeing tons of aircraft lately. Was just on the roof where I am at..a white 737 went by on the east side of 90/94 which was odd considering the restrictions. But I watched it head off and bank toward OHare. Was running very quiet, barely heard it. As far as aircraft it is all I have seen so far! Posting a youtube as we speak of the area. |

I was thinking, it'd be awesome to have like, a GLP block party. I can imagine it. big screens and computers waiting for the latest doom. the occasional tinfoil hat, people being picky about their food because they don't know what chemicals are in it. xD and we'd all just sit there, and watch the NATO summit (hopefully either drunk/high as fuck. and wait for doom. |

Chicago here too, all of us here think OP is stupid, don't tell him. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1947631 Why? Serious question, for I am not in Chicago.

Chicago here too, all of us here think OP is stupid, don't tell him. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1947631 I completely disagree. Keep it up, OP. If there was more of this around 9/11/01 maybe things would've played out differently. Even last year at the G20 in Toronto, people who documented the events MADE A DIFFERENCE. The police who abused the rights of the innocent bystanders are being brought to justice as we speak thanks to people like you. (link to prove that below) Good hunting, OP. Keep the camera rolling and the reports coming in. [link to www.cbc.ca] |

TryToGetTheTruth User ID: 15985277 Canada 05/18/2012 09:17 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I agree this should be covered in as many ways as possible. A running thread over the weekend would be great, never know what may show up. Hopefully a lot of first hand knowledge and a lot of videos from the immediate area. Open mind required !
