Ten Shot Overnight (UPDATE - 14, no 16!)

Chicago has to be averaging almost five shot a night lately, right? Double that last night:
  • Ten people were shot across Chicago Friday evening and into Saturday morning, according to police.
These crime strategies are working amazingly badly. Sure, the shootings "in the box" might be down, but everywhere else, they're out of hand and there just aren't enough cops to put in any more boxes. We're stretched to thin and summer is likely to break it.

UPDATE: The bodies keep falling out of the woodwork:
  • One man was killed and 15 others wounded by gunfire across the city Friday night and Saturday morning, according to authorities.

Homicide total for March - up to 19.

Actually, according to the Tribune, the count is up to 16 shot, 1 dead.

I'm beginning to think living in a wide open mining town in the old west would be less dangerous than living in Chicago.

Wonder how McBeergut and Rahmmie the Commie are gonna spin this one.

Stay safe out there folks. It's gonna be a long summer.

You should use the new metric - SPH = Shots Per Hour. It seems like a concise number to put out.

Then we can measure and compare cities - like
Chicago - 2.5 SPH
Detroit - 2.0 SPH
NYC - 1.5 SPH

At what point will the mayor just have to say he was wrong and hire more police instead of just keep telling the public its all about the kids. It seems more like its all about the mayor because it sure don't sound like the kids are really safe now does it.
COMPSTAT actually does work, but only with man power to address it. It identifies a trouble area, send more police to that area and the crime goes down.
So the real reason the crime goes down is because there was more police, the compstat only tells where the more police should go.

Nice going Gerry McCarthy, whatever you are doing will surely be very hard to undo but then you won't have to live here after you collect your last City of Chicago paycheck.

A dozen and a half shot, one dead on a Friday, G8 taken away from Rahm, what's next?

Are you fully utilizing all your officers yet? Do you think it is time to hire a dozen or so new officers? The year I came on the City hired over 2,000 officers who are now retiring. Many are retiring early just to get away from here.

Officers who have long worked the south and west sides know how it is, you could have a cop on every corner and they would still kill each other.

Lester Maddox once observed the problem with conditions in the Georgia prisons was the quality of the inmates. It is similar in Englewood and on the west side. The problem is the quality of the residents and no amount of police officers can ever fix that.

I retired from the job and now teach at the college level. One of the points that we teach is the Kansas City Study of the 1970's which states that "Increased police presence does not necessarily reduce crime". This premise is the basis of Community Policing and every other political shell game supported by political hack police administrators and politicians cutting police budgets. The Reality is, and I mean the real Reality is that an increased police presence DOES reduce crime. We saw this when Fat Phil deployed office cops into Da Hood. Simply placing cops who had absolutely no intention of doing anything but to sit there, actually reduced crime. It worked! White folks driving in to cop dope were afraid of arrest. Dealers moved to other areas where there were no officers. Using that experience it should be clear that taking officers out of areas is going to encourage crime in those areas, especially areas like 016. It is realized that we will never have 13,000 officers again, because the City has shrunk. Yet we must also realize that you cannot keep taking people out of certain areas and assume that crime will go down in those areas. Communities and Peoples' lives are at stake.,

"I understand why the city is saying response times are up. Today the 009 District was in a huge back log and 920 said per him unless it is an arrest situation 19-P all jobs. So that means as soon as they come out the jobs are assigned to him and then cleared"

CPD policy is all police 911 calls get assigned to a PO to respond.
The 009 Sgt is 100% wrong.
A CR should be issued, sustained, and Sgt suspended.
The Dispatcher knows this is improper conduct.
The Dispatcher should also be suspended.

We are understaffed. This “clearing the board” does not help us. In fact, it hurts us.
“Clearing the board” makes it look like we have an adequate number of officers.

Why should a Sgt or Dispatcher stick their necks out?
Everybody knows that if any of those jobs “go bad” the Sgt would be “Cozzied.”

Why should we take risks to help the city?
Let the city change the dispatch policy (acknowledging Chicago does not have enough police officers) or hire more police.

Don't "clear the board."

Wait until the mentally ill run out of their meds from the mayor and governor closing down all those mental health clinics in order to save. They'll be hitting the streets soon if you haven't taken any calls already.

Let's see how much we save as the E-R rooms and trauma centers go on bypass. Yeah boy, we're saving now eh.

Don't look at that over there though.

Look at this over here at how many kids have been struck by speeding vehicles in schools zones and near parks. Look at them all. Where are they? How many where there today, this week, this month, this year?

((crickets)).

That's funny. I haven't seen a single story in the press about this speeding vehicle carnage. Have you?

Nevertheless we got to get those speed trap cameras in baby! Millions of dollars are at stake and the mayors friend needs a contract.

Fine the children and take their lunch money too because their shoe laces are untied that will teach them disciple and to not mess with authority. Get them ready for their mindless corporate factory welding jobs. Just sit down and shut up and pay your taxes like the city council told you to do.

SPEAKING OF THE CITY COUNCIL!

Sixteen people shot and not one aldermen in the main stream media demanding anything of the mayor. Not one. Maybe I missed it, there's gotta be one right? How about you, any of you seen the aldermen speaking out?

What are we paying taxes for? What? Tell me. To be told to sit down and shut up?

They're not even passing out flyers anymore to tell you to shelter in place inside our homes because it's too dangerous. These are our elected representatives? Are there ANY leaders among them or are they just here to collect a paycheck and go with the flow of whatever the machine wants and then play the victims? Yeah you know the answer and so do I

They're useless.

So showcase it mayor. Showcase what the elite NATO leaders have created.

010,011,014,015,021,

This manpower increase will most certainly curtail this unusual spike in violence the above areas currently experiencing this unfortunate phenomena.
The Department has been reassured by Tommy Skilling that temperatures will come down and we will soon see peace across the entire city. We urge all citizens to remain calm and carry on their normal activities such as hanging on street corners or just sitting on porches at 2:00am.

MLM == Martial Law by May at the rate things are going.

No jobs. No future. Mass Corruption.

We're importing the criminal drug cartel element granting them sanctuary because the crisis that these members of society create the politicians can use plain and simple.

Oh-no, don't address the root causes of the violence, the illegal immigration issue. Use the crisis for your personal social-economic political gain.

Tell us how ignoring laws conforms with your Broken Windows bullshit of sweating the small crimes to send the message that the laws matter.

Stop trying to deport illegals as it will break up the (drug cartel) families trying to make themselves a better life the political apparatus cries.

We even get it at the top level of government. The message that the law doesn't matter.

While is can be argued that many of the people getting caught doing the shootings today here are US citizens it can also be argued that the shootings are a result of the sanctuary city illegal immigrant culture that has been imported here and spreading.

This is not a gun control issue it's a cultural issue and the political apparatus created it and is encouraging it to continue.

Soon we will be finding the bodies being beheaded in the parks like in Mexico as it's allowed to continue. It's the culture.

The violence, shootings, and fear create the distractions away from the ongoing investment banker crimes and the presidential immunity from prosecution granted to corporations.

We need that. We can use that.

Now tell us how letting the trillion dollar banking frauds off the hook conforms with Broken Window law enforcement.

The fear creates a distraction away from our own Department of Justice running guns to Mexico providing the drug cartels with much needed USA support to keep the violence on going. Broken Windows?

You are not fooling the people with this Broken Windows marketing slogan bullshit that provides the excuses to pick and choose which laws are going to be enforced and who they will be enforced upon and how the main stream media will spin it to provide backup for your actions.

Look at the actions and not the words.

At a moments notice the city can and will mobilize thousands of mercenary para-military police for curfew violations in a show of force squashing the demands for justice and squashing the calls by the people for prosecution of the investment bankers.

On the other hand as the shootings and violence flares in the city I ask you where is that same overwhelming show of force?

The message could not be clearer to anyone with a level of intelligence in this city and it's not the Broken Windows message bullshit that we're buying.

Leaving the trillion dollar banker frauds off the hook that has had massive global ramifications in favor of chasing misdemeanor city ordinance curfew violations and speed trap cameras enforcement is not sending the message that the law matters. It sends the message that the political apparatus is corrupt and the police are there to protect the corruption so that it may continue.

MLM == Martial Law by May because the real message being sent is the laws don't matter. They are just a matter of opinion like the US Constitution is a mere suggestion. The words are twisted and given new meanings as the clouted class desires to suit their needs.

How else are they going to control the situation than by creating a police state with curfews IN THIS WORLD CLASS CITY.

CPD policy is all police 911 calls get assigned to a PO to respond.
The 009 Sgt is 100% wrong.
A CR should be issued, sustained, and Sgt suspended.
The Dispatcher knows this is improper conduct.
The Dispatcher should also be suspended.

We are understaffed. This “clearing the board” does not help us. In fact, it hurts us.
“Clearing the board” makes it look like we have an adequate number of officers.

Why should a Sgt or Dispatcher stick their necks out?
Everybody knows that if any of those jobs “go bad” the Sgt would be “Cozzied.”

Why should we take risks to help the city?
Let the city change the dispatch policy (acknowledging Chicago does not have enough police officers) or hire more police.

Don't "clear the board."

I retired from the job and now teach at the college level. One of the points that we teach is the Kansas City Study of the 1970's which states that "Increased police presence does not necessarily reduce crime". This premise is the basis of Community Policing and every other political shell game supported by political hack police administrators and politicians cutting police budgets. The Reality is, and I mean the real Reality is that an increased police presence DOES reduce crime. We saw this when Fat Phil deployed office cops into Da Hood. Simply placing cops who had absolutely no intention of doing anything but to sit there, actually reduced crime. It worked! White folks driving in to cop dope were afraid of arrest. Dealers moved to other areas where there were no officers. Using that experience it should be clear that taking officers out of areas is going to encourage crime in those areas, especially areas like 016. It is realized that we will never have 13,000 officers again, because the City has shrunk. Yet we must also realize that you cannot keep taking people out of certain areas and assume that crime will go down in those areas. Communities and Peoples' lives are at stake.,

3/17/2012 09:54:00 AM

The Kansas City study was flawed you idiot. You call yourself a college professor? Presence alone does not reduce crime. Proactive policing works. Under Cline, the officers assigned to high crime areas made numerous stops and found guns and drugs. Today beat cops are stuck in boxes unwilling to use proactive tactics from the past. Under Cline we had exempts with actual street experience. Today every promotion is openly based on clout. I feel sorry for your students.

Speaking of homicides, thought you guys should know (if you're not already aware) that the "wildings" of last summer are back in action.It's only a matter of time before someone is actually killed amidst all of this chaos.

Was at Chicago and Wabash at about 9:30 this evening having some fro yo with a friend. There were mobs of teenage kids clogging up the sidewalks and blocking most, if not all the streets during the light changes. All of these kids were black, and clearly looking to start something as they were all yelling and screaming at each other constantly. Things came to a head about ten minutes later on Wabash right in front of Chik Fil A. Cops showed up, and I thought everyone would scatter. Not so. Once the tear gas came out my friend and I got the hell out of there. It's only March! What's to come in June, July, August when temps really heat up?!

What is going on with this violence zone nonsense? All of Englewood is a violence zone. Doesn't make any sense and now this idiotic plan is spreading to 008, Holding cars down on a five block radius and telling the zone they are not to take calls outside that area. This is a prime example of lack of police street knowledge and failure in leadership on what works to curtail violence. How about talking to your troops and asking for their input and ideas since we are your front line. This Department is becoming a total embarrassment to work for.

Beat 920 coding all jobs 19-P because they were in a RAP is crazy. If I as a P.O. Did this I would be fired. How can he get away with coding any job he has know idea what's going on. The call takers take the call and sometimes the job is not what's listed. It could be a lot more serious then listed. Or things could get out of hand because no police are coming. This could really back fire. This Sgt should be up on charges of failure to do his duty.

The guilty was 920 3rd Watch on 16 March 2012. Maybe this will be helpful for the CR investigation. It will be easy to find it on the tapes. He said it to the dispatch and the relief dispatcher. Both dispatchers went along with it. The dispatchers will be left holding the bag if something bad happens. To all dispatchers turn on your light and tell your boss what this or any other one who wants to trick bag you. Then you are truly covered. Let the bosses take the time.

I was born waaay downstate a long time ago, spent a couple years living in the Chicago area, and write this as an IL expat who got out in the 80s, w/o regret.

Over the decades it's never ceased to amaze me that with all the evidence of failed Democrat 'leadership' staring them in the face, the states' citizens continue to ignore reality and re-install, year after decade, the same carpetbagging thugs over and over and over again.

Your current disgrace of a mayor, of like mind with the communist filth currently usurping the White Hut, is a stellar example.

Chicago seemed a fine city in my short time there long ago, but on reading this blog today I wouldn't go back now on a bet.

If IL citizens had not allowed themselves to be stripped of their 2nd Amendment rights, many of the irredeemable scum you're dealing with at the moment would be in body bags where they belong - put there by the citizens they would otherwise assault/rob/maim/murder - and not roaming the streets terrorizing a disarmed populace and a shamefully undermanned police force.

I only know it's a shame that Chicago is rapidly on its way to third world status, and my hat's off to those of you dealing each day with the feral human garbage at the root of it all, be they in the Southside or in City Hall.

The Crazy Roaches in Garfield Ridge

The wife may be letting the kid get away with everything but the dad (step or not) shouldn't get a pass because he's a nice guy. Listen to yourself covering for this idiot (the dad). When the son commits a murder or robs your house or convinces some 13 year old girl to suck his d!(% we'll see how understanding you are about the dad being a nice guy. Nice has nothing to do with it. Be a parent and not an animal in the ghetto letting the street raise your offspring.

I worked in 011 with him when he was a PO and he was a goof back then and I suspect the kid will be the same when he's an adult.

I'm not sure if the kid was a problem last year but the dad was to busy having a mid life crisis with the red corvette He bought and drove around the neighborhood day and night cruising archer. Geez man, give it up and work on the kid. Please!
