Black On Black Homicides

[Straight Shooter]

Ok, but tourists often want to tour the different places, so what can happen if they get lost in those areas?

These districts are no-go zones for white folks. Any white people who would step in would be killed on sight.

Come on, you knowx just like me what happens to tourist who would go in these part of Chicago : they would be robbed from their phones, money, credit cards, jewellry, etc. As long as they do what the thugs would tell them to do, as long as they would not resist, the chances that they would be hurt are very low. We're talking about thugs and criminals, not psychopaths These people are not stupid, they know that as loing as they keep the violence among themselves and don't hurt white folkjs or tourist, police won't disturb them.

What the fuck would you know about Chicago? I've been all around that city and I've never had a problem.

I do not think that either of us has visited Chicago.

I've been to Canada and America in 1983 (Ottawa - Minneapolis - New York) and obviously we managed to stay in areas which were intended to white people because nothing unfortunate happened durig the trip!

My family took a vacation to Chicago about 20 years ago. It was nice. We went to the Field Museum and I seem to recall an aquarium and we ate at Michael Jordan's restaurant. I don't recall discussion of gang violence but I do remember everyone talking about Andrew Cunanan ( Summer '97). Good times.

Perhaps it can be said that you and your family had good luck!

Seriously speaking maybe cities such as Chicago and Detroit are not so dangerous as they claimed to be. :dunno:

Top cop after violent holiday weekend: 'It's not a police issue, it's a society issue'

After another violent holiday weekend, Chicago police Superintendent Eddie Johnson said Tuesday his department is doing all it can to combat violence rooted in "impoverished neighborhoods" where "people without hope do these kinds of things."

"It's not a police issue, it's a society issue," Johnson told reporters outside police headquarters after a long weekend that saw 65 people shot, 13 of them fatally.

"Impoverished neighborhoods, people without hope do these kinds of things," he said. "You show me a man that doesn't have hope, I'll show you one that's willing to pick up a gun and do anything with it.

"Those are the issues that's driving this violence. CPD is doing its job," he continued.

Johnson pointed to increases in gun arrests this year over last year -- and more than 6,000 illegal gun recoveries so far in 2016 -- as evidence that officers are out on the streets working.

But he acknowledged that the fallout from last year's release of the Laquan McDonald video, and the amplified distrust between the police and African-American community, doesn't make it easy for his officers.

"Of course, they're human. They're people," Johnson said. "So of course, nobody wants to be the next viral video. These officers have families to take care of too."

The weekend had begun relatively quietly. But the violence spiked on the last day, with 31 shot between 6 a.m. Monday and 3 a.m. Tuesday. Nine of the fatal shootings occurred over that period.

Among those shot was Crystal Myer, who was nine months pregnant and was wounded in the abdomen on the same block where someone had been killed less than 20 hours earlier. No information on the baby was available. A man she was standing near was left in critical condition in the same shooting around 3:30 p.m. in the Back of the Yards neighborhood.

Farther south, a retired pastor from East Chicago, Ind. was shot to death outside a senior housing complex in the South Shore neighborhood around 6:30 a.m. Monday.

Police say the man was found dead, shot in the face outside the Senior Suites of Rainbow Beach near 77th and Exchange around 6:30 a.m. Monday. Residents identified the man as Allen H. Smith and said they heard him arguing with another man before shots were fired.

Police said they took into custody another resident of the home. No charges had been filed.

The Labor Day weekend was the deadliest of the three holiday weekends this summer. The Memorial Day weekend saw 69 shot, six of them fatally, and the Fourth of July weekend recorded 66 shot, five of them fatal

Early Monday morning, it appeared Chicago had a chance of ending a holiday weekend with fewer than four dozen people shot, which would have made it one of the least violent weekends of the summer.

The uptick in shootings in this weekend's final hours mirrored the end of the Fourth of July. Gunfire in the final hours of that holiday made up half the entire weekend's bloodshed.

Police attributed the 11th-hour surge to retaliatory acts, often involving gangs, after a weekend of parties and tense encounters.

Homicides in Chicago this year have risen to levels not seen since the 1990s, when killings peaked at more than 900 annually.

The 92 homicides in August was the most the city had seen in a single month since July 1993 when 99 people were slain.

Through 5 a.m. Tuesday, the city recorded 488 homicides, marking a 47 percent increase from 331 for the same year-earlier period and exceeding the 481 for the entire 2015, according to official Police Department statistics.

The number of shooting victims has topped 2,930, approaching the 2,988 total for all of last year, according to a Tribune analysis.

Even at 488 homicides, the Police Department’s statistics do not include killings on area expressways, police-involved shootings, other justifiable homicides or death investigations that could later be reclassified as homicides.

The Tribune’s own database, which primarily uses the Cook County medical examiner’s office to determine whether to count a death as a homicide, put the total number of killings at 512 as of early Tuesday.

Homicides and shootings in Chicago continue to far outpace both New York and Los Angeles, both bigger cities. According to official statistics through late August, the most recent publicly available, New York and Los Angeles had a combined 409 homicides, well below Chicago's total.

Chicago hits 500 homicides for 2016 after deadly Labor Day weekend
Aamer Madhani, USA TODAY 5:22 p.m. EDT September 6, 2016

CHICAGO — With a holiday weekend spate of violence that killed 13 people, the homicide toll in the nation’s third-largest city hit 500, a grim milestone that puts the city on track to reach a murder rate it hasn't seen since the drug wars of the1990s.

The Labor Day weekend murders come after police recorded 92 murders in August, the deadliest month for Chicago since June 1993. With murders up roughly 50% for the year, Chicago has tallied more homicides than the much larger cities of New York and Los Angeles combined.

The city is on pace to record well over 600 murders for 2016, a threshold it has not reached since 2003. Chicago regularly recorded more than 700 murders a year in the 1990s as gang violence, driven by the crack-cocaine epidemic, raged.

In the most recent shooting on Monday night on the city’s West Side, someone in a silver mini-van opened fire on a group of teens and young men, killing two 22-year-old men and seriously wounding two teenagers, 16 and 17, and a 20-year-old, police said. One of the men killed was a gang member, police said. Police were searching for suspects Tuesday.

Chicago Police Superintendent Eddie Johnson has blamed the recent surge in killings on increased gang activity and weak gun laws.

"It’s important that we all wrap our heads around what’s going on here in Chicago," a frustrated Johnson told reporters Tuesday. "We need to enact tougher penalties, so these individuals know their actions will not go without consequences. Until then, you’re going to keep seeing the same results on the streets.”

The city recorded 473 homicides in 2015, according to police department data. Chicago surpassed the 500-murder threshold this year over the holiday weekend, according to data tracked by the Chicago Tribune.

While Chicago is one of several cities, including Milwaukee and Memphis, to see a spike in murder rates, other large cities have seen the number of killings decline in 2016.

New York, with 227 murders through Aug. 28, is on pace to record fewer killings than last year's total of 352. The nation's largest city tallied a record low 333 homicides in 2014. Outgoing Police Commissioner William Bratton said Tuesday that the department's officers are proving it's still possible to cut crime in the Big Apple.

"We have further reduced violence and serious crime across this city, yet again,” Bratton said. “The tremendous focus on a small group of criminals has resulted in these unprecedented declines in crime – as violence has increased in other American cities significantly."

Over the Labor Day weekend, Chicago experienced the most jarring spasm of violence in a span of 14 hours Monday, when nine people died.

On the city’s Southwest Side, a 24-year-old man and 47-year-old man were killed in a shooting near a city park around 7:13 p.m. Monday. The older victim told authorities before he died at a nearby hospital that he was walking a dog in the park when he heard gunfire from a vehicle. The second victim began running when he heard the gunfire and was struck as well, police department spokeswoman Officer Anna Pacheco said. It’s unclear what, if any relationship, the two victims had.

A 33-year-old man was killed less than a half hour earlier, around 6:48 p.m., in a drive-by shooting in the Englewood neighborhood on the city’s South Side, one of the areas most plagued by gun violence. Someone in a light-colored vehicle opened fire at the man, striking him in the back, Pacheco said.

Three hours earlier, a 44-year-old man suffered fatal wounds to his head, neck and back while trying to escape from assailants. Police said witnesses noticed several people in a white van harassing the victim, who was in his own vehicle, before the shooting.

About 1:25 p.m., police were called to a home in the Brighton Park neighborhood, where they found a 22-year-old man lying dead in his driveway with a large chest wound. He also appeared to suffer several stab wounds to the chest, police said.

Additionally, police said a 24-year-old man was fatally shot in the Englewood neighborhood and a second man, 26, was critically wounded around 9:32 a.m. Authorities said both victims had known gang ties, and the 26-year-old man, who was wounded in the thigh and suffered a graze wound to the head, is refusing to cooperate with investigators.

Police were also called to a residence on the South Side early Monday morning where they found an 80-year-old man with a gunshot wound to the face. He was pronounced dead at the scene. Pacheco said the suspect, who has been arrested but not yet charged, shot the elderly man after an argument.

Guns are great but we have to give credit to the Blacks for hating each other so much they pick them up and choose to kill each other. Tying the hands of police is a brilliant idea for upping body count for the current 2017 season too.

Always said the change has to start in the community itself. Laws, police, nor politicians can turn the tide.

True. Politicians only care about keeping their jobs or getting better ones. They try to avoid talking about this issue but when forced to find it easier to put the blame on inanimate objects like guns instead of human behavior with criminal intent for fear of alienating potential voters.

Front line law enforcement could make a difference but if they made too much of a difference they would be labeled racists instead of dedicated cops. People want a safe place to live but don't haul their son away.

As long as the retards who make up those inner city gangs keep acting like members of Boko Haram no one will invest in the community or give them the opportunity they claim they are being denied. I don't believe in karma but I do in cause and effect and it's the choices they or their parents made that put many in the place they are in.
