This has been true since the 1960’s.

An Illinois relative, a few hundred miles away from Chicago texted me that these were black gangs, and this has become a sop for the gangs and cops in Chicago in the summertime.

The Fergusson Effect continues, whether Rahm Emanuel admits it or not. This looming possibility of losing your job, your professional reputation, your family’s privacy and security, has caused officers all over the country to second guess doing what is needed to bring situations under control.
The same thing is happening in Baltimore.

Sounds like a perfect opportunity to obtain high definition images of a bunch of gang members so that you can identify them and target them individually.

The arrests, if any, will be of those protecting home and hearth. You can take that to the bank!

With this kind of vibrant, festive economic activity how can Illinois possibly be facing insolvency? ;-)

Reminiscent of a scene from Joseph Wambaugh’s “The New Centurians,” which was set during the Watts Riots of the 1960’s. The young police officers are watching the carnage of a broken down and out of control civilization and wonder aloud if the Roman Centurians at the time Rome was beginning to be destroyed by barbarians felt what they were feeling right now.
