Leaders from three West Side gang factions allegedly met last week to discuss plans to shoot members of the Chicago Police Department in response to the fatal police shooting of Paul O’Neal.

The meeting took place Thursday between higher-ups from the Vice Lords, Black Disciples and Four Corner Hustlers, according to an alert issued to department members the day after the meeting.

The Four Corner Hustlers “provided guns” and have “a sniper in place” though authorities do not know where, according to the alert. The Four Corner Hustlers also are supplying the other two gangs with automatic weapons, which all three factions also have agreed to use against police, the alert states.

Let me get this straight...Killing a little child in an alley by a rival gang member is okay, killing a little girl that is sleeping in her bed is okay, stray bullets that kill hundreds of innocent people every year is okay, but the police that kill someone ACTUALLY committing a crime and tried to run a policeman over in a stolen vehicle is a cause to rally around? Gang members really are morons. If gang members do try to carry this out it will not end in a good way.

Track the leaders of these gangs down and arrest them. If they resist, shoot them. When riots ensue, shoot the rioters.

I attribute the chaos and lawlessness in Chicago to the quality of past community organizing work.

If gang members do try to carry this out it will not end in a good way.

I wish I was more optimistic than you, but I do hope you are right.

The solution is to de-escalate the police and have them abandon the “No Hesitation” training (and its variants) that got them to this place.

The police are so aggressive and dangerous in Illinois that the Legislature and Governor passed a law requiring that student drivers learn how to behave during a traffic stop so they don’t get killed by terrified police officers who are in a near-constant state of fearing for their lives.

Boy did obummer fundamentally change America.

Why aren’t these gang members abiding by the law? It is illegal for felons to own firearms. In Chicago, no less. So where are the arrests?

Ok, I know The Jets and The Sharks, what’s the third gang?

Geeez - I saw some piece the other week about the Black Guerrilla Family gearing up to hunt and kill cops - WTF - is the Weather Underground, SDS, the Baader-Meinhoff gang and all that making a comeback too - along with all the bearded and hairy hipster dudes running around these days makes me think I've time-warped back to 1972 or something. Guess all the old radicals that are at the levers of power now are trying to bring back their old glory days by raising a new militant revolt.
