My Kind of Town

Chicago is one of the worst-run cities in US, study finds [More]

Hey, there’s some things they still lead in…

Violent Father’s Day weekend in Chicago ends with at least 25 people shot in five hours early Monday

Forget it, Jake, it’s Chi-Town.

Who else is looking forward to the Democrat Convention?

Chicago is so dangerous its progressive mayor has launched a new program to pay murder victims’ families $1,500 towards funeral costs [More]

Is it out of line to ask how much money this saves the taxpayers?

Well, maybe if the couple had shown the proper amount of respect:

Democrats Continue to Place Criminals Above Citizens, Exploiting That to Ban Guns

They rely on violent crime so that they have blood to dance in, to whip up mob furor among constituents ignorant and stupid enough to vote for them. [More]

Why punish their constituents when they can punish you?

Her Body His Choice

In the weeks before she was killed, Roque repeatedly took all steps domestic violence victims are told to take. She got a protection order against her former boyfriend, Kenneth Brown. She also repeatedly went to the Chicago Police Department for help. She filed one police report after another and never gave up. [More]

Did she get a gun?

And why won’t they show us who she got involved with? Conspicuous absence just makes people want to look and then wonder…

We’re the Only Ones Predictable Enough

“If anything happens to me,” prosecutors said she told her friend shortly before her death in December 2021, “Pierre will have done it.” She was referring to Pierre Tyler, the father of her 9-month-old daughter and then a Chicago police officer, according to prosecutors, who said her prediction would soon come to pass. [More]

So which are you going to believe? Her ability to prophesy or his claim of self-defense?

Forget it, Jake. It’s Chi-Town.

My Kind of Razzmatazz

Got that? No more traffic stops in Chicago. This is insane — a demand to end enforcement of traffic laws, because Dexter Reed got killed after he shot first in a confrontation with five police officers. Do these people think it’s irrelevant that Reed shot first? Do they care nothing about the facts that (a) Reed was packing a 9mm pistol despite (b) being out on pre-trial release for a 2023 weapons charge, and (c) this shooting happened in one of Chicago’s most violent neighborhoods? [More]

Yes, of course they’re members.

Forget it, Jake. It’s Chi-Town.

Let’s Go, Brandon!

Chicago Announces First-of-Its-Kind Lawsuit Seeking to Hold Glock Accountable for Manufacturing and Selling Pistols That Can Easily Be Turned into Machine Guns Using ‘Glock Switches’ [More]

They’re never gonna stop, are they?

But the city wants “machineguns” for its “Only Ones”? So is Glock going to continue selling them guns?

Cui Bono?

However, this week saw a particularly confusing moment when, after calling the anti-crime program ShotSpotter “racist,” Johnson asked the company to extend its contract beyond the upcoming Democratic National Convention. [More]

But he seemed so adamant…

I wonder what “per$uaded” a change of heart to break a campaign pledge and extend racism… ?

Forget it, Jale. It’s Chi-Town.

FraudSpotters

Mayor Brandon Johnson announced Tuesday that he won’t renew the city’s controversial contract with ShotSpotter, making good on a key campaign promise to do away with the gunshot detection system that has come under heavy fire for allegedly being overly costly and ineffective. [More]

Kinda like what David Chipman would have brought to ATF…

Man, when even Chi-Town Democrats get it…

Wherefore Art Thou, Romeo?

Suspect in killings of 8 people in Joliet dies during confrontation with US Marshals in Texas – Romeo Nance, 23, is wanted in connection with the shootings death of seven people on Monday and two shootings that happened over the weekend, police said. [More]

Who thinks this is the first they’ve heard of him?

We’re the Only Ones Triggered Enough

On-duty cop accidentally fired his gun outside Lori Lightfoot’s home: Chicago police [More]

And not just an “on duty cop.” A “veteran Chicago police officer”!

I see “The officer remains on active duty because the firearm discharge was accidental.”

So he’s keeping his gun.

Funny… if you or I had done that, not only would our names be publicized, the only way we’d be out is if we made bail. And you’d better believe there’d be a court order to surrender all weapons.

Forget it, Jake. It’s Chi-Town.

Criminal Chicago Alderman Represents All Politicians Behind Citizen Disarmament

With the “Long Line of Chicago, Illinois Leaders Found Guilty of Corruption,” Al Capone’s got to be looking up from the pit and wondering what the hell he did that was so wrong — aside from his choice of gang to be part of. [More]

Life in the clown world corruptocracy… except nobody’s laughing.

Tell Me You’re Not Serious Without Telling Me You’re Not Serious

Texas officials charted a private plane to keep sending migrants from overwhelmed border to Chicago [More]

This is just such a non-solution…

How about arrest invaders at the border and force them back across? And if the feds show up, have a standoff?

Who thinks this isn’t going to lead to civil war anyway?

Too bad they’ve ignored their militia duties, and if any volunteers showed up to bolster ranks it’d be damn near impossible to weed out the provocateurs.

A Clear and Present Danger

22-time convicted felon burglarizes homes while on parole for 19 armed robberies [More]

There outghta be a law…

And for all the dolts out still saying “enforce existing gun laws,” it’s on you to explain how that works on “the black market,” as well as why you’d obey infringements like a tyrant’s lickspittle rather than defy them like an exemplar of freedom by becoming a “gun criminal.”

Pincer Movement

In Chicago and other cities, gunmen have been forcing people to unlock their phones with their pass codes or technology that recognizes thumbprints and faces, according to police. Once in, the robbers drain victims’ bank accounts. The payoff is often $1,000 or more — a lot more than criminals typically score by just stealing a wallet. [More]

While Democrats focus on enabling banks to disarm you.

Hey, how hard would it be to fake an app that looks like a bank icon and acts like you’re doing a transaction but actually works behind the facade to install a backdoor into the receiving account, and as a 911 call…?
