There’s an App for That

SplitSec, a Chicago company, says its app uses residents’ phones instead of the fixed acoustic sensors used by the controversial Shotspotter program… SplitSec ultimately wants roughly 300 to 400 participants per ward to create a sufficiently dense “mesh” of phones that can corroborate suspected gunfire. The company has floated an introductory price of $15,000 per ward per year [More]

And you thought ShotSpotter was a boondoggle. Everything to dance around and ignore the obvious.

Be funny if reporting phones get confiscated as evidence..

Forget it, Jake, it’s Chi-Town.

Forget It, Jake, It’s Chi-Town

A report from the Major Cities Chiefs Association shows that gun-controlled Chicago has more murders thus far this year than all major cities in pro-gun Florida combined. [More]

How long are people going to believe Everytown’s lies that it’s the fault of “states with weaker laws” ?

Buyer’s Market?

Mayor Brandon Johnson Signs Executive Order Strengthening Firearm Procurement Standards – The order strengthens vendor accountability and establishes additional public safety considerations for firearm-related purchases by City agencies. [More]

Using Brady propaganda to determine who gets their business… So, put the squeeze on ’em to become gunbitches* or not be considered for contracts?

I wonder how NSSF is gonna spin it.

Any bets on none of the manufacturers taking the Ronnie Barrett approach?

And if Chi-Town gets away with it, who else will follow?

Can We All Get Along?

“F**k The USA”: Professor Delights Chicago Crowd With Anti-American And Anti-Border Rant [More]

Ah, the voice of the downtrodden…

Made possible by Princeton alumni.

Democrats trying to rein in the radicals are analagous to the Mensheviks, and we know what happened to them.

A Government-Created Problem

ICE arrests criminal illegal and teacher wanted for her involvement in a TDA gang mass shooting [More]

I could see her in a bell tower screaming “Sanctuary!”

Forget it, Jake. It’s Chi-Town.

This is what Democrats, teachers unions, and No Kings pinkos are bent on imposing everywhere, in Everytown.

Stop Me if You’ve Heard This One Before

A recent burning cross in a Chicago park was not aimed at the city’s black population but at President Donald Trump and white Christian nationalism. The perp wasn’t an angry, racist, white person as Democrats like Mayor Brandon Johnson and others had wished; instead, the flaming cross was admittedly set by a 21-year-old, gay, socialist, Asian-American man. [More]

Good thing hate hoaxes are so rare. Right?

Fortunately, SPLC has come up with an authenticity workaround.

My Kind of Town

Shootings increased near Chicago’s closed schools that sat empty, study finds [More]

So abandoned yet readily accessible buildings provide shelter for nefarious activities to go basically unchallenged? Who could have foreseen that?

It’s like providing the petri dish and the agar and then acting all surprised when something nasty grows in it.

Funny: As demand for schools went down, Stacy Davis’ compensation has gone up…

Don’t worry, though: The population is growing again!

International migration has helped boost Chicago’s population in the past few years. More immigrants moving into Chicago have helped offset the number of residents leaving Illinois.

Forget it, Jake. It’s Chi-Town.

A ‘Yes’ or ‘No’ Question

Talk about a long history of patriarchal white male supremacy… nothing to say about that?

So, Brandon… being a Chicagoan, does Bob Prevost owe reparations?

My Kind of Razzmatazz

Giffordsillinois

Chicago sees at least 25 shot over Memorial Day weekend as police cancel officers’ days off [More]

“Illinois has some of the strongest gun laws in the country,” Giffords says, “and much of its gun violence is due to guns trafficked in from neighboring states with weak laws.”

They still haven’t answered why those other states don’t generate the same regular headlines.

Forget it, Jake, it’s Chi-Town.

Ask What Your Country Can Do for Them

More Than 16,000 Immigrants in Illinois May Lose Food Assistance in the Coming Months [More]

How many generations are we gonna have to feed until they come around?

And how will they, if this is the culture they’re immersed in?

Hey, maybe they’ll riot. While waving foreign flags.

Where It Squarely Belongs

WATCH: Liberal Hack Chris Hahn DISGUSTINGLY Blames ‘Guns’ for Illegal Alien Murder of Chicago Woman — Katie Pavlich TORCHES Him in Fiery Debate [More]

Refusal to address facts and trying to redirect with a non sequitur argument reminds me of someone else’s “debating” style…

OK, fine, but what’s this have to do with blueberries?

A Mugged Liberal

Former Dolton, Illinois ‘super mayor’ pushes for federal troops in Chicago after father shot in neck – ‘Yes, it is true, my family has been directly affected by the senseless gun violence that continues to plague Illinois,’ Tiffany Henyard wrote [More]

If that’s her plague diagnosis, she hasn’t learned a thing, but anything that causes dissent between their constituencies and ruling Democrats is A-OK in my book.
