Ferguson On Steroids: 10 Shot Overnight In Chicago

How many nine-year-old Antonio's need to die in Chicago before the national media will park its satellite trucks in front of Mayor Rahm Emanuel's City Hall and demand answers and action.

How many black people, including black children, need to die in Chicago before the national media stops counting civilian casualties in Gaza as a political weapon against Israel and starts counting them in one of our own cities.

Overnight in Chicago 10 people were shot. One night. One. How many more until the national media cares enough to look into the root causes of the violence, poverty, despair, terrible schools, and broken families.

...

There is no political upside for the media to do good in Chicago, so they won't.

“Overnight in Chicago 10 people were shot. “

Wait until next weekend.

OBAMA, HOLDER,SHARPTON AND THE RACE WAR

RACE BAITERS ...

Just in Chicago, every week end, dozens of blacks are murdered and wounded by black and nobody in the black leadership, neither Obama, nor Holder or the race pimps, care. When Blacks kill Blacks, there are not mob protesting and rioting, neither Holder’s Justice Department would send 50 special agents to investigate and prosecute the culprits of a single case.

A 2007 special report released by the Bureau of Justice Statistics, reveals that approximately 8,000 — and, in certain years, as many as 9,000 African Americans are murdered annually in the United States. This chilling figure is accompanied by another equally sobering fact, that 93% of these murders are in fact perpetrated by other Blacks. The analysis, supported by FBI records, finds that in 2005 alone, for example, African Americans accounted for 49% of all homicide victims in the US — again, almost exclusively at the hands of other African Americans.

To put these number in perspective, recall that over 6,400 U.S. service men and women have been killed in Iraq and Afghanistan combined over the course of a decade-long war fought in those nations.

If a Black police officer in the fulfillment of its duty happen to kill another Black, an Hispanic or a white person, the media will not accuse the officer as murderer even before the details of the case are known as it happens when the officer is a white policeman and the dead person is Black.

”Perhaps it is time that Americans were finally told the truth about the police, so they might avoid falling prey to the self-serving lies of the aforementioned, self-anointed guardians of “civil rights.”

”The Bureau of Justice Statistics reports that in 1998, fully 62 percent of the 367 suspects killed by police officers nationwide were white, and 35 percent were black. In fact, police killings of white suspects have outnumbered those of black suspects in every single year since 1978.”

” black officers are far likelier to shoot black suspects than are white officers. In 1998, for instance, the black-officer-kills-black-felon rate was 32 per 100,000 black officers – much higher than the white-officer-kills-black-felon rate of 14 per 100,000 white officers.”

”While part of this disparity is due to the fact that black officers often tend to be assigned to black neighborhoods, clearly no case can be made from these numbers that white officers are in any way “trigger-happy” when confronting black suspects.”

”The intra-racial nature of most police shootings has existed for many years. Between 1976 and 1998, about 65 percent of homicides by police officers were against suspects of the same racial background. The rate at which white officers shoot black suspects has been declining steadily for two decades, while the rate at which they shoot white suspects has remained fairly constant over that same period. When a white officer kills a suspect today, that suspect is usually white (63 percent). When a black officer kills a suspect, that suspect is usually black (81 percent).”

”Overall, black officers are slightly likelier than white officers to kill a suspect in the line of duty. Indeed whites comprise 87 percent of all police nationwide, but account for only about 80 percent of homicides against criminal suspects, regardless of race. Meanwhile blacks, who constitute 11 percent of American police officers, are responsible for about 17 percent of homicides against criminal suspects.”

”Some readers may find this information shocking, particularly in light of the media’s and the civil rights establishment’s disproportionate focus on instances of white officers killing black suspects.”

It’s just not a story when blacks kill anybody, dude.

[griswold3]

Dog bites man. Not news
Man bites dog. News
Nothing changes really

[all the best]

Be careful what you wish for. If they turn their attention to black-on-black crime, they will conclude that it is because of racism and oppression. It will be further evidence of the evils of racism and capitalism.

For the LSM, Homicides don’t count in Chicago because it is innocents being killed. In Ferguson, it is BIG news because a teen black thug got street justice he deserved. As usual, the LSM gets it backwards.

[cdcdawg]

Same as using the N-word. It’s okay when they do it. Well, there’s the dead person, so it’s not exactly the same, but .... racism, white privilege, etc ...

[EandH Dad]

Only ten? Looks like the numbers are trending down so we may have a handle on the situation. However if the numbers start going back the American people could turn against it start asking for an exit strategy. Oh wait, Chicago and not Afganistan? Never mind, we should pull our troops out of there anyway.

The root cause is simple: Democrats.

Democrats have controlled every aspect of the city for many, many decades. And, whenever Democrats hold such singular sway over a municipality, state, or nation control chaos and destruction are the inevitable results.

[Texicanus]

The gods of liberalism demand their sacrifices. Chicago responds to appease their gods. Nothing more...

[blam]

They’re becoming as violent as Muslims.

[VerySadAmerican]

How many kids must die in Chicago before whimpy republicans start talking about it every time a camera is pointed at them?

[Kozak]

Wow. Those racist Chicago cops are animals!
Oh, wait......

I watched part of Joe Bastardi's weather forecast yesterday, and he mentioned that parts of the US didn't get any expected heatwaves this Summer.

ChiTown was the first place I thought of that benefited from the lack of heat-boosted tempers.

Still, the murder rate is below the five year moving average.

[SkyDancer]

National media is a joke. They're self aggrandizing empty headed bobble heads that are paid millions to complain that others are making millions and worshiping at the alter of 0bama.Oh, and they have their own agenda as to what is or is not news, then lie about it.

(shouldn't have had that second double espresso this morning)

[Whats-wrong-with-the-truth]

While it saddens me that people, not just children, are being senselessly shot and killed daily in Chicago I don't blame Rahm Emanuel. I blame the citizens of Illinois. All of you that have allowed the criminals to disarm you. They have effectively made it impossible for you to defend yourself from them. Why? Because you are a law abiding citizen. If you were not a law abiding citizen you'd pop a cap off in each of their worthless a**es and rid the street of them. But noooooo.... Instead you give them jobs as cops and ask them to protect you from their brothers, cousins, uncles, daddies....

There is a saying that I rather enjoy and it goes something like this, "You can't fix stupid."

Anarchy will soon be the rule of the day. Forget having a civilized country anymore. Just ask the citizens of Detroit what happens when thugs and idiots take control. Soon all your daughters will be prostitutes and you and your wife will be raiding garbage cans for scrapes these morons leave behind orrr... you'll all be dead. There are no places that anyone can run to. They are burning up any forest land we have in the West or cutting off water to prevent the vegetation from flourishing causing what is there to dry up and become even better tender for the next fires they start. Animal populations (food) are vanishing, food prices are soaring, civility is gone and idiocracy is abounding.

Yes, I blame the citizens of Illinois for the blight that is befalling Chicago and I blame the rest of America for that same plight that is spreading like wildfire across America.

I say my piece, I piss people off and I don't care if the truth hurts. It is the Truth.

Just a few random thoughts.

[ExCTCitizen]

I wonder if the Jackie Robinson Little Leaguers will live to be 15 - let alone to adulthood.

[driftless2]

Were than any white people involved as the shooters? No? Then never mind, it’s not worth reporting.
