TRU Deployed....Downtown?

Many reports coming in about a huge out-of-control "wilding" incident Saturday night. Anyone from the Central Control Group want to chime in here? We're hearing a few 10-1's were called along with dozens of arrests. Mostly juveniles coordinating on Facebook and other social sites.

It happens with great frequency. The teens and gangbangers have made a routine of meeting around the el stop at Chicago and State. They hang in the McDonalds, then proceed to Michigan Ave to commit their crimes. They are robbing people, stealing from the stores and beating tourist. It gets very little media attention, cause "We don't want the tourist to find out." If a few of them are caught, they sit in the juvie room for a couple of hours and are released. They return the next day and commit the same crimes over and over. Just wait til the warm weathers comes and stays. They will have to start a Michigan Ave Special Detail. Then cops can work their off days for time and a half. This will have to be done to save Michigan Ave!

Truth is 018 and 001 are up for grabs. These "flash mobs" are taking over the downtown area! People wake up, you can't go downtown to a show, to a movie, to dinner with these youths going crazy on people. And Ricky G from 1st District says "these are not hate crimes???." Please ask yourself and any victim " what race was the victim?" and what race was the offender?" The Police Department Sucks. They have done nothing to protect us citizens because the City of Chicgo is in turmoil! God Bless our Police Officers and I hope they are safe tonight as they try to make it safe for all of us!

It surely must be roving bands of honor students from New Trier HS bound for Harvard & Yale doing these wilding incidents.

It certainly isn't the wonderful chillins from 003, 004, 005, 006 and 007th police districts. Why those kids are sitting home with their parents helping with homework.

A "flash mob", you nitwit, is a group of people who coordinate a song and dance routine an perform it in a public place without announcement other than to the actual performers. Its always safe and mostly entertaining. A group of shit head kids forming a pack to commit crimes is called...well I guess its just called a "mob"! Mostly evil, and if you're the victim, hardly entertaining

As a Swede I must protest the gross smear on my ethnic heritage, It is the Finns doing this. It has been known for 1500 years they cannot hold their liquor and have a genetic fear of again being reduced to wearing reindeer hides for clothing. Alcohol + Finns + racks of warm clothing behind glass = frenzied berserkers.

Michigan avenue is out of control after 4pm on saturdays. Imagine what the summer will bring. The shitbags know its a lot of soft white liberals and tourists down there and they make the easiest targets. Its also extremely busy in terms of pedestrian traffic with soo many places for them to duck and get away FAST. They do group(15 or more) shopliftings where they all steal shit from a store at the same time. Even if 2 or 3 get caught imagine what the rest get away with. They do the I Phone robberies as goofs are texting or dialing, they just snatch it and go. Next time you are on michigan ave, check out all of the hs age thugs wearing armani, hollister, etc. You think they PAID for that?

Tip # 7:
" The black strip on the back of a credit card (or any other plastic card with a dark strip, debit style issued funds, transit & phone cards, etc.) stores information on it in magnetic form. Thus if you place a credit card near a strong rare earth magnet it will change/damage this magnetic information making the strip unreadable."
There's alot of paper work and running around trying get those funds back on the cards thus making mobility limited.

I, for one, think this is fantastic! You see, the City and CPD have both undertaken a wonderful social experiment: Take away police power in the name of civil rights and prove, once and for all, that nothing bad will happen. You sue the crap out of the city, hire a super that imprisons a cop and destroys morale, and this is what you get in return. OOPS! lol...YOU REAP WHAT YOU SEW.

EB has to formulate a plan. Its all true. Bands of 6-10, m/1/14-21 yrs of age. Crossing the streets at will. Walking in packs in the middle of intersections, while traffic is moving, surrounding caucasian people, while they're walking. Touching grabbing the girls and woman, while their skinny jean boyfriends looks in terror.check out chicago/state, chicago/lasalle, state st.,michigan ave. On friday and saturday, or when theres an event near area. Called police, got tired of waiting for at least one squad car to pass. The group was way to big and kept moving. But who can blame the poor po's, for no department directives for the handling of these thugs and criminals. Fr.Flaeger, jesse jackson, farrakan, gator wallace, every store front reverend, the actions of the ASA's office, the politicians all know whats going on, but would be the first to Condemn any actions by the police. Good luck, God Bless and stay safe

Yes -- and I believe that they gave the man's name at least once, and said that he was from Schiller Park.

Would they broadcast the name of a female victim of a vicious sexual attack?

The word "homeless" makes all the difference.

Why are victims not described as "divorced" or "affluent" or self-employed" or whatever? Why the insistence on this?

Anyway, what with probably 30 M1s on 1 50-year-old M2, I'm sure this was a "random act."

Good news! Attempted murder charges in Forest Park attack on elderly

"MAYWOOD, Ill. (CBS) – Two men have been charged with beating and stomping a 71-year-old grandmother in a Forest Park grocery store parking lot.

"Kenny Hollyfield, 52, and Robert Mix, 53, were both charged with aggravated battery and aggravated battery to a senior citizen in the Feb. 11 attack. Hollyfield, who has been pinpointed as the primary assailant, was also charged with attempted first-degree murder and attempted robbery.

"Police say the men and a woman were stalking Christel Sanders of Oak Park [at] the Ultra Food Store at 7520 Roosevelt Rd. in Forest Park. When Sanders left the store around 6 p.m. and began loading grocery bags into her car, the men attacked her and tried to grab her purse, police said.

"When Sanders refused to surrender her purse, one of the men dragged her and knocked her down, then kicked and stomped her several times in the head, police said. Police said they think she was targeted because she was elderly and presumed as frail."

You were working on this in another thread already. The Chicago Police Department is so undermanned that, if you read this thread, you'll see that they are having trouble containing violent crime in the city. There are over 100,000 gang members here.

Critical Mass is not causing "wildings." Some people have been looting and burning and robbing and raping for decades before Critical Mass even existed.

I ride a bike, by the way, and am not especially fond of the C.M. crowd either, but they are not invading stores hundreds at a time, attacking people, going through Northwestern Memorial Hospital
and stealing patients' and staff's belongings, etc.

There are priorities. Some nuts on bicycles are 'way down the list.

How come all those people in cars that cause the vast traffic tie-ups you sit in every day aren't "assholes?"

"People and traffic" cause "people and traffic" to be "delayed" all the time. Get on your horn and just stay there until you have a coronary. "We got a call of a man slumped over the wheel..."

That's life in the big city.

You people in Patrol have to realize that all the facts are not released to the public when a case is under active investigation. Too many facts slipped to the media from a district desk truly screws up a detective's case and can place witnesses in danger. Serious cases are seriously being handled by the Detective Division, not ABC7 news.

Parolee Charged In Grant Park Beating

"A 45-year-old man on parole for armed robbery was charged today with robbing, beating and sexually assaulting a man in Grant Park last weekend.

"Cortez Foster was arrested Sunday in the Saturday morning assault near the park's General Logan monument in the 800 block of South Michigan Avenue, according to the Cook County state's attorney's office.

"Police said the victim, a 65-year-old Northwest suburban man, was assaulted with a tree branch.

"A passerby discovered the partially clad victim lying on the ground shortly after midnight Friday, police said.

"Officers arriving at the scene around 12:15 a.m. found the man, who was unable to speak but had gotten up and walked to the 700 block of South Michigan Avenue.

"The victim had facial injuries consistent with a beating, police said."

Its worse than wilding. I heard a WLS radio report today a 65 yr old man from N/W suburbs was robbed, beaten and sodomized with a tree branch in Grant Park this past weekend. A woman interviewed on the news was surprised and said things like this don't happen here. I thought to myself, bullshit asshole. That and worse happen in Chicago all the time. I am about ready to pack my Glock 23 illegally when I HAVE to go to the City and I will simply take the hit and plead my case if you guys jamb me up. I would rather have it if I need it than have a tree branch stuck up my tail pipe by some shit head. I am serious. I used to carry a Beretta .380 in the 80's when crack came to Chicago and things were out of control in some of the neighborhoods I used to have to meet our customers. It is getting back to those days again. Man, I remember checking out a damaged townhouse in Pullman and I couldn't believe all the street dealing I saw just looking out the second floor window.

Name him in the narrative and that he ORDERED you to falsely reclassify the incident. If you don't, YOU could be the one getting jammed up somewhere down the road.

I've spent most of my career in the Detective Division. When I discuss cases with fellow dicks, I use the monosyllables "perp" and "vic". However, if I'm writing a report, I use "offender" (3 syllables) and "victim" (2 syllables).

I never use the "politically correct" seven-syllable term "African-American" either. I opt for the perfectly respectful monosyllable "black".

May I have your approval, slick?

There are priorities. Some nuts on bicycles are 'way down the list.

How come all those people in cars that cause the vast traffic tie-ups you sit in every day aren't "assholes?"

"People and traffic" cause "people and traffic" to be "delayed" all the time. Get on your horn and just stay there until you have a coronary. "We got a call of a man slumped over the wheel..."

That's life in the big city.

Motorists are not "assholes" because they get caught in traffic. Critical Mass members are assholes because they intentionally "cork" the intersections so motorists cannot get though.

Critical Mass is not just a bunch of misguided greenies protesting cars.
They are organized anarchists that enjoy their own version of "wilding". They are thugs that have been arrested for damaging property, beating senior citizens and carrying loaded handguns. These are facts.

We no longer have the time or manpower to deal with them. We have to deal with the urban "future rap artist". Critical Mass knows this and will continue to be a problem.

EB has to formulate a plan. Its all true. Bands of 6-10, m/1/14-21 yrs of age. Crossing the streets at will. Walking in packs in the middle of intersections, while traffic is moving, surrounding caucasian people, while they're walking. Touching grabbing the girls and woman, while their skinny jean boyfriends looks in terror.check out chicago/state, chicago/lasalle, state st.,michigan ave. On friday and saturday, or when theres an event near area. Called police, got tired of waiting for at least one squad car to pass. The group was way to big and kept moving. But who can blame the poor po's, for no department directives for the handling of these thugs and criminals. Fr.Flaeger, jesse jackson, farrakan, gator wallace, every store front reverend, the actions of the ASA's office, the politicians all know whats going on, but would be the first to Condemn any actions by the police. Good luck, God Bless and stay safe
---------------------------

Why does EB have to formulate a plan? Why doesn't the district commander or watch commander or tact lt or sergeants in the affected districts recognize the problem and formulate a plan of action?

And what the hell do you need a department directive for? Damnit, man up, use your brain and be the police.

The term "flash crowd" was coined by science fiction writer Larry Niven in a 1973 novella (called "Flash Crowd"). Niven was speculating on the possible consequences of cheap, convenient teleportation. What if one could get in a booth, dial a code, and be anywhere else instantly?

One possibility was that if any disorder broke out and was reported on TV/radio, vast numbers of looters and such could blink in, creating a "flash riot".

Niven's "flash crowd" was spontaneous, based on enhanced transportation as well as communication; that hasn't happened. Transportation hasn't changed very much.

On the other hand, communication has improved a lot. Thus the "flash crowds" of today are enabled by improved communications: cell phones, text messaging, the Internet. But they are almost always premeditated; people actually getting to the spot takes too long for a "spontaneous" crowd to form.

Don't insult a person for not knowing a thirty-second old techno-trendy term -- in your own personal and extremely narrow interpretation, to boot.

"[It's a group of people who [use cell phones] to coordinate a song and dance routine an perform it in a public place without announcement other than to the actual performers..."

Is that what you call the bunch of idiots who swarmed the Lake Shore Drive mass casualty situation during the Groundhog Day blizzard -- not to help with blankets, hot drinks, or transportation, but to throw snowballs?

Facebook bites. I live my life just fine without it, thank you. It was never necessary before and is not necessary now.

All you little trendies with the fluorescent streak in your hair and the eyebrow stud and the slitty little black glasses are just clones of each other, mere walking collections of consumer products and brand names with nothing inside to speak of.

Bo-ring. You are all so five minutes ago.

My mechanic is on West Division Street…he’s been our family mechanic for over 20 years. Honest, Humble and GOOD…He and his staff were robbed a few years back and his wife was pistol whipped by 3 savages before they gave up any money.

When I go there, I only have a Louisville Slugger with me in the car because I don’t want to lose my job for getting a UUW if I should get stopped en route to his garage. Make sure we ALL show up at the Tuesday press conference, in Chicago, at which Illinois politicians willing to go on the record against RTC will be trotted out. Apparently that means Anita Alvarez, she of the famous “I think there should be a law that nobody can buy a gun” interview.

I’ll be there.

It is absolutely absurd that the 018th district does not deploy their tact teams out to Michigan ave. Instead they follow these kids around like critical mass. Why don't they wolf pack and stop these damned kids and lock them up or at least contact card/Anov them. They walk around for hours and they are allowed to roam the streets until it blows up by state and chicago and they run down to the red line and jump the gates. But the tact teams are busy processing their panhandlers. Im just saying...

The homeless are as big, if not a bigger problem down in CCG, they are EVERYWHERE, they are extremely aggressive and opportunists, most repeat offenders that are dealt with on a regular basis, with no clear answer in sight; you lock them up, they usually dont show in court and get a warrant, you find them and lock them up again and the case is almost always SOL and they are right back out. Some of these guys have 200 arrests! when they get chased out of CCG they end up in 012 in greektown, taylor st. areas as well as 013 in west loop area. It's maddening...

If people on an 18th District Tac team were/are afraid to lock these cocksuckers up or anov them because they are afraid of a civil rights violation beef maybe they should be selling used cars instead of being the police. It makes me glad that I'm retired when I hear such balless shit. It's no wonder that the fucking city is in such shit shape. Is it just the 18th District is the whole city gone?

This is exactly what I'm talking about. People that are either scared or have no clue how to look for any little mistake to lock someone up, even if you have to get pimpy on them i.e. obstruction of traffic by non-motorist when these kids run through the streets or cross and violate crosswalk signs and nearly cause traffic crashes. Come on, there are tons of MCC's you can get them for. Some guys just need to grow a pair of balls or go find another job. Someone needs to step up and start challenging these savages...I guess 018th dist tact isn't up to it.

What if that was on of your loved ones that got severely beaten for a hundred bucks and a cell phone while shopping on the mag mile? Then would it be important?

You have to start deploying people who are willing to do a little work. The 018th district is in a backlog all summer long because you got guys sitting on parkers and other paper jobs for over 1hr and won't clear. CCG Dist. supervisors should man up and start treating those dog asses like, well you know dogs. Too many guys and gals on the job nowadays who only care about cashing their checks but won't earn a dime of it. Afraid of getting a CR...

My wife visited Chicago a year ago and enjoyed the night club that played up the gangsters of the Thirties. She wanted to go there again with her friends and their husbands. I shared the stories I have read on here, and she didn't want to go back anymore. I will not go to Chicago, and I won't let her spend money to go back there. Kill a few hundred gangsters and we may reconsider, but I doubt it.
