Chicago Protesters VS Black Friday.Seriously?,Would You Go Shopping In Chicago This Week?

[Wildman]

These days, a 17 year old kid with a LEGAL 3" knife is likely to be gunned down in the street for no reason at all.

... ...

 

[Wildman]

Are blacks planning to burn down their own neighborhoods again?

let's hope so, then they will have no place to live in the coming cold months.

 

[Rexx Taylor]

With all of the illegal guns and criminals on the loose throughout Chicago, why would anyone want to go shopping, especially this weekend? Then again, aren't most residents of Chicago suburbs poor? What are they going to do?, Have a field day with their 1000.00 EBT Limit at Wally World and Target?
If any of us were living in Chicago, we would just tell those who are threatening to block all of the wal-marts, something like,,,Hey, go ahead and block {name{s} of shopping centers, then tell them your going shopping at a town 30 minutes away {well, in a much more safer neighborhood}, and also go shopping on line where at least you will not get hit by any "Hillary Sniper Fire"

I wouldn't live, work, play, or shop anywhere near that left wing shithole.

well, at least the thugs will have plenty of white police cars to take craps on.

Not if I were black.

These days, a 17 year old kid with a LEGAL 3" knife is likely to be gunned down in the street for no reason at all.

Looks like the murderer got lucky though.

Let's hope he gets stuck in general population.
With blacks who have kids they love.
With the only protection being very horny white supremacists.

You said “These days, a 17 year old kid with a LEGAL 3" knife is likely to be gunned down in the street for no reason at all.” According to your personal knowledge, how many Black men have been killed by the police solely because they were in possession of a 3-inch pocket knife? My best guess is closer to zero than any number you can invent.

PS: When you combine the possession of a 3-inch pocket knife with irrational behavior, perhaps there is a REASONABLE fear that the person will cause serious harm. Under the law in every jurisdiction, deadly force can be used (by both police and civilians) if – at the time such force is used – there is a reasonable fear of serious bodily injury or death. The key word is “reasonable.” If you don't know that a 3-inch pocket knife can easily kill a man, you are a fool.

In the final analysis, I don't know enough to conclude whether or not the police officer involved acted illegally; however, I do know that an innocent, rationally acting Black male with a 3-inch pocket knife has as much chance of being shot by the police as I have of winning the lottery; close to zero.

I will give you the last word. I said what I wanted to and I am done with this thread.

I doubt most of the residents in the suburbs are poor. In a lot of places you could skip across the Benzes at the local Jewel parking lot like James Bond running across crocodiles. Only thing that might fuck it up would be tripping over a Land Rover.

Like any city some rich, some not, some in between. Some reallllly nice areas of the city and ditto out in the burbs. A lot everywhere along the spectrum as well.

Chicago and the surrounding suburbs is no shit hole. There are areas that are war zones but do not extrapolate that into thinking this is, by and large, a scene from Terminator. It's not.

It's just not the same. Not as fun. You don't get to touch everything and try things on. What fun is that? Sometimes it looks like it's nice and then you get it, and it looks like crap. Then you're like, what the hell is this cheapo thing that I just paid 50 bucks on? You just can't win.

 

[Rexx Taylor]

i wonder if the pawn shops are open friday, have they gotton to the point where the customers are now threating the owners to buy their fake jewlery with a gun to their heads?

I do a lot of shopping online. There are so many things you can't get in the small town of Lake City, Florida, where I live. I had to order red lentils on line! Veal brats? Forget it. I even have to make my own pancakes from scratch because there isn't one damn store that sells a genuine whole-grain pancake mix. I am an avid reader, but the only “book store” we have is at Walmart.

On the other hand, Lake City, Florida, is a wonderful place to live. Great weather and even greater people.

Oh, Luddy! You are such a silly goose! You forgot to mention that in order to be gunned down you also have to be rocked out of your mind on PCP, menacing the neighborhood, threatening police officers, acting erratically and dangerously, and refusing to obey direct orders from the police. Now, if all of those elements are present; that is, if you choose to get amped up on PCP and go rampaging toward cops while wielding a deadly weapon, then, yes, the chance that a peace officer may get a little gruff with you is much higher than if choose not to engage in such dangerous anti-social behavior. It is really up to you. Personally, I have never been shot at by the police. Am I just lucky? Is it because I am white? No. It is because I do not get amped up on PCP and go rampaging through the streets with a knife. Pretty simple.

Ok, Luddy. That is enough for tonight. Now put on you jimmi jammies and off to bed. Sweet dreams, my little buckaroo!

Most White Folk bailed for the suburbs in the 1950s and 1960s and haven't returned yet; expanding the suburbs until they encompass a half-dozen northeastern Illinois counties and a couple in northwestern Indiana - except for Gary and environs, which has turned into yet another Black inner-city shit-hole, on a smaller scale, like Aurora or Joliet, Illinois.

Within what's left of the City of Chicago, the degenerative effect of the Black Blight which grips it in a death-embrace continues to spread into the nearby suburbs - West (into Maywood, Broadview, Hillside, Oak Park, etc.) and South (Markham, Robbins, Calumet City, South Holland, Harvey, Chicago Heights, Evergreen Park, Alsip-Crestwood).

Except for a few pockets of White Folk along Archer Avenue, Bridgeport, and near MIdway Airport and Ford City, and an isolated pocket or two in the Hyde Park and University of Chicago neighborhoods, the West and South Sides of the City have turned into complete shit-holes.

The only other appreciable White Presence are the rich folk along the Gold Coast (Lake Shore Drive and evirons, north of the downtown area), and the increasingly sour-ing neighborhoods to the northwest and straight north of the downtown area - with the far north souring even more quickly than the northwest.

Oh, there are a handful of neighborhoods that are trying to make a come-back and to flush-out the decay through Urban Gentrification - bulldozing down a piece of a Black neighborhood and putting up expensive and highly secure town homes and condos that your average inner-city Black Folk could not possibly hope to afford, but these are usually a draw only for high-paid executives who want to be close to their downtown offices and students who band-together to make a go of it and who are far more transient to the City.

But it's not enough, despite the slanted analyses we see from publications and surveyors who have a vested interest in painting a rosy picture; Urban Gentrification serves to wipe away some of the blight but there are only so many well-to-do White Folk willing to move back into the City and the student population is far too transient and unstable to count.

After all, who the hell wants to set up in a city whose only solution to an endless budget crisis is to hold a knife to the throat of the rest of the State in the legislature and to suck the life out of its citizens through taxation and which hyper-regulates and hyper-taxes business; driving away both wage-earners and businesses of any appreciable size at the speed of light. And as to corporate newcomers, the moment the tax exemptions and new-business-attraction perqs run out, newcomer businesses oftentimes leave, as well.

And who the hell wants to send their precious children to those inner-city shit-hole schools if they have any choice whatsoever in the matter?

Add to that an 80-year-long control of the City by the Chicago Democratic Machine - the last of the old 19th Century Tammany Hall -style oligarchies, designed to keep the Sheep quiet with bread and circuses and to blindly vote to keep The Bosses in power, so that they can continue to milk the old girl (the City of Chicago) for all she's worth, using the smallest outlay possible - and you have a recipe for a Democratically-controlled and servile Black and (increasingly) Hispanic inner-city population that votes the way they're told.

Hundreds of thousands of under-performers... welfare heaven... insane taxation five ways to Sunday... corruption at the precinct, ward and city-hall and county-building levels...

A Democrat-controlled cesspool of poverty and dependency and little hope or prospect of success... the ones who succeed are usually the ones who finish school and muster the courage to leave the herd within their inner city neighborhoods and get out into the wider world and figure out that the Tubob (White Folk) outside their old world aren't such a bad bunch after all.

Of course, the Chicago Democratic Party Machine doesn't want them figuring that out on their own.

All in all, the City of Chicago is a write-off... old news, and still a relevant perspective.

There may be room for you and the missus in the Big Apple....

Just one thing to make you drool....the library system is enormous, and on line. Any book you wish, they transport to the library of your choice.

 

[Hossfly]

lets see how long the thugs last in 30 degree weather,,,kind of hard to protest when your arms/fingers are 35 degrees.

I am in favor of using water cannons in cold weather. It's rough, protesting while soaked to the skin in 30 degree weather.

So have you personally tried this yourself or are you just full of Hoss shit?

Used water cannons in 1965 riots. Any more simple minded questions?

 

[Rexx Taylor]

i wonder what per-cent of the thugs will change their minds about protesting tomorrow night at wally worlds/targets/malls when they step out of their homes into 35 degree weather?

 

[HereWeGoAgain]

Are blacks planning to burn down their own neighborhoods again?

I think they may eventually get around to burning down yours if you're a stupid white person who supports a cop who's been charged with first-degree murder, you dumb fuck

Silly boy...they'll never do that because they know they'd get their asses kicked.
And not just by the locals. The government would never let the actual tax payers get burned out.

Mayor condemns shooting...

Chicago Mayor Calls Officer's Actions 'Hideous'
November 24, 2015 - Mayor Rahm Emanuel hasn't seen the video, which allegedly shows Officer Jason Van Dyke firing 16 rounds into Laquan McDonald.

Mayor Rahm Emanuel held a conference call with ministers and other community leaders Monday to condemn what he called the "hideous" actions of a white Chicago police officer captured on video fatally shooting an African-American teen and to defend his administration's handling of the controversy. The mayor said he hadn't seen the police dashboard-cam video of the shooting, which allegedly shows Officer Jason Van Dyke firing 16 rounds into Laquan McDonald, 17, many of them as he lay prone on a Southwest Side street in October 2014.

The city has refused to release the video, citing the ongoing criminal investigation into the shooting, but a Cook County judge last week ordered the footage released no later than Wednesday. That has prompted a scramble at City Hall and the Chicago Police Department to prepare for the fallout amid complaints that the city has not done enough to address police misconduct. Emanuel told the participants that his call was to ensure that "everybody has similar information and also that we all, in my view, play a role as stake-holders in our city and in our respective communities throughout our city."

Mayor Rahm Emanuel hasn't seen the video, which allegedly shows Officer Jason Van Dyke firing 16 rounds into Laquan McDonald.​

He asked them to help ensure that any protests remain peaceful when the video is released. But Emanuel did not take questions, and there was no attempt to engage in a dialogue during the six-minute call. "Any descriptions I've read of this incident, to any person, regardless if you're the mayor or just an individual, it would shock you, because it's basically not only a person taking the law into their own hands, but they don't have a measure and are not using the judgment that is expected," Emanuel said on the call, which the Tribune gained access to through one of the participants. "What happened here is wrong. There is no justification and it's profoundly hideous, in my view," Emanuel told the ministers. "And it's a shock to your conscience of what happened, and it should not have happened."

For 13 months, Emanuel and the city's attorneys had opposed the release of the video amid ongoing criminal investigations into Van Dyke. After a Cook County judge found the city in violation of the state's open records law last week and ordered that the video be released, the city pulled an about-face, dropping its court fight and saying it would comply with the order to release the potentially inflammatory video by Wednesday. Neither Emanuel nor his office have said exactly when the video might be released, and the mayor did not give any indication during his private call with community leaders. Details of the video did not begin to surface until April, when the city made the unusual decision to approve a $5 million settlement for McDonald's family even before a lawsuit had been filed. Emanuel told reporters Monday that he had not seen the video but nonetheless condemned the officer who fired the shots.

Release of Video Sends Protesters to Streets
November 25, 2015 - The demonstrators, who were accompanied by a police escort, locked hands and enveloped several police cruisers.

As Chicago officials released the video of the fatal shooting of a 17-year-old teen by a Chicago police officer, community activists expressed frustration with the incident and the recording's delayed release, some marching in the streets, others asking for calm. Other city leaders expressed concern for how the video, which shows Laquan McDonald being shot 16 times by a police officer in October 2014, may be perceived by the city's youth.

On Tuesday evening, dozens of black activists gathered inside an art gallery just south of Halsted Street and Roosevelt Road to talk about the video's release. Fresco Steez of the Black Youth Project 100 later asked reporters be cognizant of protesters' "raw" feelings. "Tonight, what we're having is another instance of a killing, a public lynching of another young black man, so we're asking you to give us some space to process our feeling around that. ... Their feelings might be raw," Steez said.

Community reaction to the release of the 2014 video of Laquan McDonald being shot by Chicago Police officer Jason Van Dyke, near Michigan Avenue and Balbo Street in Chicago​

Minutes later, the group emerged from the building, chanting. Activists later spilled into the streets, yelling in unison, "16 times!" in reference to the number of bullets fired by police Officer Jason Van Dyke. Demonstrators called for an overhaul of the Chicago Police Department, demanded more resources for disenfranchised communities and scoffed at any city suggestions of how communities should react upon seeing the violent footage.

The demonstrators, numbering about 150, were accompanied into the South Loop by a police escort on bicycles and in squad cars. At Roosevelt and State Street, protesters locked hands, enveloping several police cars. At one point, police turned protesters, who eventually grew to more than 300, away from crossing the Balbo Avenue bridge toward Columbus Drive, and a confrontation with police on bicycles ensued. One officer fell beneath a bike in the scuffle, and a protester was seen stomping on the bike. At least three people were taken into custody, and one officer was taken to an ambulance. No details were available on injuries or the detained.
