There are other big cities that can teach Chicago how to do it right.
“The number of shootings in New York City plummeted to 998 in 2016, the first time that rate has dipped below 1,000 since the city began tracking such incidents. That’s a 12 percent decline from 2015, a standout statistic in a year that saw record low crime rates across the city.
The city’s murder rate also fell from 2015 — down from 352 to 335 in 2016. (And a nick above New York’s historic low, notched in 2014, of 333, and tied for second with 2013.) New York Police Department brass attribute some of decrease in violent crime to gang takedowns (the city saw its biggest bust in April 2016), and according to the New York Times, big reductions in gang-related shootings and killings helped drive the overall numbers down.
NYPD chief of crime control strategies Dermot Shea also attributed the new lows to the department’s ability to better track crime patterns — linking multiple crimes to one perp, for example — which comes down to improvements in technology and good, old-fashioned police work. All together, the overall crime rate sunk 4 percent, with fewer than 102,000 major felonies — the lowest number of the CompStat era, which the NYPD began using in the early 1990s.”

The first step to solving Chicago’s bloodbath is for Obama’s term to end. Obama’s support for the terrorist group, BLM, has played no small role in chicago’s murder rate. Obama’s DOJ is too busy looking for white, homegrown terrorists, etc., to care about skyrocketing black crime. Trump will change all that in relatively short order.
