Seven in One Blow
A total of seven people were shot and wounded near the intersection of Walnut Street and Homan Avenue late Tuesday, fire department spokesman Larry Langford said.
Six of the victims were taken to area hospitals in critical condition, while the seventh was in serious condition with a graze wound, Langford said. All of the victims were males, ranging from teens to young adults.
Authorities responded to a report of someone shot in the area of Homan and Walnut just before 10:45 p.m.,[...]
Some of the shooting victims fled the scene after being wounded, one being found in an area convenience store, Langford said.
An Emergency Medical Services Plan 1 was called, and then additional ambulances were sent for, bring a total of seven ambulances to the scene.

What the hell were they shooting with?
An M-60 machine gun?
If the casings are 7.62 I suggest the detectives call in the Feds because some armory may be missing a weapon.
Perhaps the department can get some surplus armored vehicles from the military because reading that gives me Iraq flashbacks and I wasn't even there.
Chalkie says:
"I've recently been thwarted by unseasonably cold temperatures, but rest assured adoring followers, like a dog left to fend for himself on the streets, I'm slowly adapting to my environment. And I promise to not disappoint when the mercury climbs back up to where I do my best work."
See? There IS a silver lining in every cloud, SCC.
There was a set of dice at one of the victim's feet. Bodies all up and down the block and not enough ambulances to go around. Then 2 more shot in 10. Zone 10 was on fire tonight!
I wonder if the POD on the N/W corner captured this heinous crime?
440 folks!
Sheebee (head of the Black Souls) was kilt here about 10 years ago, most PO 's responding grabbed 143A's all over the place.Souls didn't care and showed up to the scene guns in hand!
Sheebee was kept on life support for a month (family DEMANDED it) and was taken off.
Traditional rivals are G/D's from Fransico and Monroe, but street word is some on-going with folks from Madison and Albany.
Last bit; Souls strike back REAL hard.
Keep yer heads up 013 and 011, god bless...
Tweaking police assignments, creating new units, buying bigger police cars -- all of no more use than telling the band on the Titanic to play livelier music.
We are witnessing the failure of a vast, ill-advised social experiment.
Dig sommore holes at Burr Oak Cemetary
Yeah and about 20 minutes later, 2 shot in 10 at 31st & Springfield..... Summer has officially arrived in Area 4!
GO CHALKIE GO, YOU DA MAN, OR WOMAN?
Homan & Walnut...my fave intersection on Zone 10!
So you had 9 people shot on Zone 10 in a 20 minute period!
U gotta love the 011th district even w/ 5 outside tact teams and mobile strike force there! What a joke.
Lyna on Zone 10 did her usual best, coordinating all of the responding units from 011, MSF, Saturation Teams as well as everyone else in the area of the shootings. I cannot believe her patience and cool demeanor at times like this.
AZ, on the other hand, just loves the sound of his voice on the radio.
Great job by everyone. God bless the CPD.
What a dog shit intersection. It was only a matter of time before this happened. There are never less than 30 shitbags out in front of that dump. It sure put a smile on my face.
(From the Ace Reporter News Service)
Shots rang out in the area of Walnut and Homan. The results: Seven shot.
When area residents were asked what happened, they responded with: "We dun' snitch."
"We's takes care of owns."
"Dem' boys won't doin' nuthin'." Deys hona' students."
Most disturbing of all, most of the residents said, "Fuck da poleeces. Dis shit ez da West side, and se's takes care our own bidzness."
Anonymous sourcees, quite possibly law enforcement sources, but not Chicago Plice sources (so the IAD Special Agent doesn't have to generate another useless CR#) said, "Chicago's asshole of a mayor and his dipshit superintenedent are lucky this is a very mild summer. If we had one our blast furnace style summers, it would of been seven DEAD."
Chicago isn't out of the woods yet. Weather experts are predicting unusually HOT weather in September, just in time for the anual "Back to School Drive By". This weather system is expected to extend into the middle of October.
How long before we start seeing IED's in the 'hoods?
If only it were possible to ensure they don't shoot at anyone but theyselfs, I'd love to take em up to my back 40 and teach em some marksmanship techniques.
There were 2 other shitheads, oops I meant "citizens" shot at 28th / Pulaski about 20 mins after the shootings in 011. So 9 people shot in a matter of 20 mins and not even 1 fatality? One can only pray!!
im gonna move somewhere safer....like iraq!
Carol Marin's segment last night was a real disappointment - nothing more than an infomercial for Ceasefire - the latest in a long line of failed social service efforts to address the crime problem. Started as a well-intentioned "concept", it was taken over by gang-members and they are wanting to restore their multimillion dollar state funding. A variation of the tried and true formula in existence for ages - angry, illiterate young people act up and money is thrown to those who purport themselves to be the "fixers" of the problem. Hasn't worked before and is not going to work now.

Bloody night in Chicago - at least 13 shot
CHICAGO (CBS/STNG) ― At least 13 people were shot and wounded in Chicago overnight, seven of them in a single incident on the city's West Side.
Oh it is gonna be a violent weekend!! Everyone be careful out there. Just get home safe, we are not paid to save gangbangers who don't value life.
How unfortunate for Carol Marin that these seven poor wounded gentlemen were shot AFTER NBC5's hard hitting, Emmy worthy, news report "Homicides Down, But Shootings Up". Had they been shot a couple hours earlier, it would have made a nice lead-in to her "Special Report".
Marin: - "There are experts who believe the numbers [of shooting victims] are being under-counted".
Marin: - "Does CPD have an accurate tally of who's been shot or how many gunshots there have been?"
DC Ruiz 010: - "I believe so"
DC Ruiz 010: - "There might be somebody who was shot that do not want it reported".
What you just read was the TOTAL Police response that Channel 5 chose to air. An 18 year old 'Ceasefire' member was more prominently featured than the CPD.
What ever happened to REAL investigative reporting ? ? ?
Except for showing some crime scene tape and a gun, it could have passed as a 'fluff' piece narrated by a Twinkie. What a joke. Even their URL has the story's title backward...!

Interesting, the scum times is starting to show the real tally of shootings going on in the city. Are they putting pressure on the mayor, jody, or both? Also, jody in sneeds column touting a new G.O. to allow PO's to shoot at fleeing vehicles! That chase out to Elgin was nuts. but by the book according to 35th street. Can you imagine letting these cowboys take shots at a fleeing vehicle? Jody it's beyond starting to show. The tiles are falling off the space ship and you won't be able to re-enter the atmosphere.
Drudge Report has a headline about 14 shot in Chicago overnight. Finnally, some outside media is catching on to how bad it is here. Oh, and what did Obama do to help stem the violence when he represented Chicago as a state senetor and then US Senetor?
per cltv, 15 shootings overnight, anybody watch carol marins segment on ch 5 last night?
What the hell were they shooting with?
An M-60 machine gun?
---------
Not as much as that tired puppy stayed jammed. But then maybe that's why only seven were hit (pull charging handle to rear, open tray, inspect, remove debris, ...)
Who gives a shit? Fuck em all.
wow im so glad that crime is down under JFED.
O.T.
Effective next Monday, police officers will be able to fire their guns under circumstances where they previously could not.
The new policy, from police Supt. Jody Weis and confirmed by WBBM Newsradio 780 Wednesday morning, allows police officers to shoot at fleeing vehicles if the driver or passengers are suspected of committing a felony.
The old policy allowed officers only to shoot at vehicles that pose a threat to them or others, such as if the driver were trying to run down the officer.
But now, officers need not be under attack to open fire.
Mike Krauser, WBBM 780
I think all would be solved if the mayor did the honorable thing and did what the warden at Shaw Shank Prison did at the end of the movie! Crime would be greatly reduced because the biggest crook in Chicago would be gone! YEAH!!!!
But nobody killed! That sucks...
Shut the hell up dubs.....you don't need to get on the air every 2seconds. On zone 10 Lyna was great as usual,1120 was a jackass as usual.
15 total shot overnight!
Stay safe!
There's nothing we can do about it. The self proclaimed Reverends, Air brush T-shirt shops, Burr Oaks Cemetary and the Liquor stores keep making money on these flies who get swatted. Obama Stimulus in action.

The big pods with the box cost 30,000 a piece and the little ones are 7,000. And they've solved how many crimes?
New rules: when cops can shoot at fleeing vehicles
Mike Krauser Reporting
CHICAGO (WBBM) - There's a major change in policy regarding the use of deadly force by Chicago Police.
Chicago police, starting next Monday, will be changing the rules regarding when it's okay to shoot.
The new policy, from police superintendent Jody Weis, allows police officers to shoot at fleeing vehicles, according to police spokesman Roderick Drew.
"Now officers will be able to fire upon the driver or passenger in a vehicle if that person is a forcible fleeing felon, someone who has committed a very serious offense resulting in bodily harm or has threatened to commit great bodily harm," Drew told Newsradio 780.
The old policy allowed officers to shoot at vehicles that pose a threat to them or others, if the driver was trying to run down the officer, for example.
Now, they'll be allowed to shoot at people trying to get away.
There are some rules of engagement.
WBBM: "You guys are going to get some serious criticism, this is going to be national news if the police are now allowed to shoot at a fleeing vehicle of some guys who just conducted an armed robbery."
DREW: "Again, it is up to the discretion of the member."
So who, among criminals, qualifies?
"It gives department members the option of taking off a dangerous member, someone who has either created or committed a serious offense or could commit a serious offense if he or she is allowed to flee the scene," Drew explained.
WBBM: "Someone who's robbed a grocery store and takes off, does this not allow the police to open fire on that person?"
DREW: "Well, that's where it gets into the whole training aspect."
But the answer is yes, they could shoot at the car fleeing the robbery.
All we can do is back each other up, in progress calls, obey all the laws, if a 10-1 or coppers family hury otherwise take your time! Shoot at cars? no! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_6rj5jisB7g

Only a couple worthwhile comments...
6.3 % increase in shootings this year, so far over, last year;
60 shot over 4th of July week-end;
Durbin informed Congress about last years CPS totals: "over 500 school children shot, 36 fatal"
The rest was pretty much B S.
it is amazing that the pod watchers can only see drinkers over there.
Its time to allow proactive policing again. The States have to allow searches of vehicles, allow chases, then indemnify the city and sue the driver of vehicle causing chase only. Allow random checks of vehicles as a condition of obtaining a driver's license, get some real judges, make jail an uncomfortable place to be and back up your police officers. All so simple!
There were 2 other shitheads, oops I meant "citizens" shot at 28th / Pulaski about 20 mins after the shootings in 011. So 9 people shot in a matter of 20 mins and not even 1 fatality? One can only pray!!
----------
A tribute to the surgeons at Holy Tony's.
very SAD, 7 ambulances used in a single incident made by useless thugs. how many children or senior citizens had to wait for an ambulence, while the fleet was busy was tending to these thugs! not to mention the bill to the taxpayers!
Of course the 2 pods right on that corner saved the day and caught all the bad guys and witnesses.????????????????? RIIIIIIIIGGGGGGHT!
Great deterrent WORTH EVERY PENNY. There are 2 Pods lit up right in Walnut one at Homan and one at 3420 Walnut. Don't the bad guys know it's a safe zone? I am sure Detective Video got all the details and is giving a debrief as we speak. AGAIN WORTH WELL OVER THEIR WEIGHT IN GOLD RIGHT MR MAYOR
Will this be counted as seven shootings, or one, in the statistics?
This is why there is a blood shortage at the hospitals in Chicago. You donate blood to help and it ends up going into these shitheads instead. On top of that you get to pay their hospital bill.
440 folks!

Do you hear that Carol? How fucking stupid are these media people? I process Cease Fire assholes all day long at the courthouse!
---not a cop
Does anyone realize that these shitheads hear about how dangerous Englewood is on TV, and they then go out and shoot up the west side to make the news and make themselves the 'baddest'? Anyway, that liquor store should burn down, Ive been workin in that neighborhood for 13 years and it's been nothin but trouble.
'We are witnessing the failure of a vast, ill-advised social experiment.'
TRUE DAT!!
Breaking news: Daley to release report showing that despite many Chicago shootings the gun ban is working. Investigators have determined that the upswing in violence is due to suburbanites standing at the borders of Oak Park, Evanston and Evergreen Park and shooting into the city limits wounding countless honor students. Once a national gun ban is in place in these lawless suburbs, peace will reign.
Why is everyone complaining?
I'm making a fortune this summer! I wish summer would never end! I'll be putting a new addition on my house thanks to these gangster thugs.
Do you know what gunfire sounds like? It sounds like silver dollars falling from the sky. Show me the money Obama!
I love this city!
How could this be? Crime is down in Chicago and the few illegal guns on the street have been seized. compared to some recent weekends, this is a slow night.
Give it a couple more months of this. Per the next order, Squad can I have an event number for executing 4 gang members who failed to disperse quick enough. Can Streets and San send a garbage truck to get them off the street.
Fr. Pfleger please help!!!
Pure west-side shit. Can't get a better hood than Homan and Walnut. It's a shooter's paradise.
So let me get this straight. I can shoot at a car with bad guys that may have any type of firearm, but do to a bad knee that keeps me from passing the run, I can't use a carbine.
So basicly mr fed is saying my saftey isn't as important as the citizens he wants me to serve and protect.
I see nothing, I know nothing...
"AZ, on the other hand, just loves the sound of his voice on the radio."
Even as a PO he was always talkin' some sort of nonsense or other.
Now I see in the Sun Times that the moron alderman want approval in any change in the use of force policy.
Most of the alderclowns would be working in the fastfood industry without their political connections and being appointed by shortshanks.
Anyone that does any proactive policing is s fool!
Get rid of the useless choppers and get some predators with helfire missiles.
Will this be counted as seven shootings, or one, in the statistics?

If they knew how to "fix" anything, they wouldn't have a criminal history. They'd be upstanding, contributing citizens!
Totals? I just snapped on the TV and Channel 9 had a map up with so many "shooting" dots on the West and South Sides that they were overlapping. "VIOLENT NIGHT" was the headline.

God only knows what'll happen tonight -- and the next night -- and the next.
Buying Tahoes and M-4s and cargo pants isn't going to help. Re-shuffling police assignments isn't going to help. Forming and re-forming new "response units" isn't going to help.
What would help is not going to be done.
"It was found that the public mind would not yet bear the proposition, nor will it bear it even at this day. Yet the day is not distant when it must bear and adopt it or worse will follow. Nothing is more certainly written in the book of fate than that these people are to be free. Nor is it less certain that the two races, equally free, cannot live in the same government. Nature, habit, opinion has drawn indelible lines of distinction between them. It is still in our power to direct the process of emancipation and deportation peaceably and in such slow degree as that the evil will wear off insensibly, and their place be pari passu filled up by free white laborers. If on the contrary it is left to force itself on, human nature must shudder at the prospect held up. We should in vain look for an example in the Spanish deportation or deletion of the Moors. This precedent would fall far short of our case."

That's the entire quote -- not just the snippet they picked out to carve on the Jefferson Memorial.

Thats why I drive past with the blinders on, I will never do anything for this city. Now give me my 2 event numbers so I can nap the rest of the day.
At Wednesday's City Council meeting, Police Committee Chairman Isaac Carothers (29th) introduced an ordinance that would require Council approval before any change in general orders concerning the use of deadly force
How fucked up is this. A criminal who should be going to jail is setting policy? Only here!
Do ranking members of the SOULS still have all there family members working in 11?

Like father like son only his father went to prison! I only wonder if the Obama administration will have a incompetnat US Attorney try the case and lose it.
There go more of our tax dollars patching up these useless life forms. Damn those shooters. Can't they do anything right?
Took a trip to the neighboorhood using the street level view of google maps. As previously posted there is a POD right there on the northwest corner maybe 50-70 yards from the bar on the southwest corner of Homan & Walnut.
If working, that POD should have had a perfect view of the shootings.
The Garfield Lagoon area looks really nice 'though probably not too safe for the taxpaying chicagoians supporting it.

That would mean even more money! Round table on the OT. Corp counsel time for the lawsuit filed by the dead POS family. Criminal court time if he survives on top of the corp counsel time. Three days off!
Plus a free bullet refill!
I can't lose!
I love this job!
Chalkie visited 018 last night! The fyny part of it all there was an M/1 standing on the corner writing on a clipboard, officers asked who he was and he stated he was from the Olympic committee and was drawing a diagram of the area. Pretty sure the shooting won't be on that one.
Thanks to CPD for assitance with robbery/homicide at Shirl's Drive-In in Kenosha. Two taken into custody last night, one arriving at jail via ER after attempting to flee and resisting.
We may need some Chalkie shirts before the end of the summer.
