It does not matter if the catch them anyways, the citizens of Chicago elect prosecutors who don’t care about prosecuting.

Can they use a mallcop segway?

Yes, but only with a limiter allowing 1/4 speed. About the mph of a frail elderly man with a walker as in Office Space.

Officers will be allowed to tie a right leg to another’s left leg as a “three-legged-race” at a holiday city picnic. Lots of fun to watch. For the felons.

I’m glad I’m not a merchant in Chicago or Cook County. The Lightfoot just greenlit shoplifting and retail theft. Heck, just grab anything you want and walk away. Anyone challenges you and you just start running and your good.

Exceedingly stupid rules. They create a greater danger to the law abiding public. Were I a Chicago cop, I would look for police employment in a more rational jurisdiction... preferably far from Illinois.

Exactly. Why bother getting involved or proactively stopping crime. Wait for a call, show up, take a report and call it a day.

How far will this evolve? What are minor crimes, when is there danger and to who, don't chase any POC, can POCs rob,shoplift or mug any Whitey as long as they don't shoot them? etc.

No, I don't go anywhere. October, 1998 I was outside of about 30 miles from home. Never farther since then.

Good old always Dem voters have brought the crime and mayhem but don't understand what the Dem Uniparty in CA means. We need to tell them. Ads saying: This is what voting Dem means (burning cities, someone lighting crack).

California NewsTimes said in May, 2021....

....All new surveillance videos show the latest in a number of car robbers near the Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco. In that video, you can see someone getting out of a car and breaking into another car within seconds. But that’s not all. Someone runs up and tries to stop him, who pushes them away.....

“There were people taking everything out of the car and it happened to my friends several times,” says Adrian Flores of Pinole.

“Assuming your car is invaded, be prepared for the worst,” says Susan McCondley, who was visiting the city with her family from San Diego.

In many of these videos, spectators watch thieves go to work. The neighbors we talked to say that the risk is too great to participate. They want something they can do to stop this.

“When you watch a video of what’s happening in the city and people pulling guns and pulling out other weapons, people just don’t want to get involved,” says Kay.
