After 2 are shot in separate Boystown robberies, investigators worry armed hold-up crews have “mutated, become worse”
CWB Chicago ^ | 29 Dec 2021 | CWB

“They mutated, become worse. It’s entertainment for them.”

Now, investigators are exploring the possibility that a violent cell that had pistol-whipped and fired shots during a streak of robberies over the past two months is now even more dangerous.

Just two weeks ago, the same source told us, “It’s a pretty quick trip from firing into the air and beating someone with a pistol to shooting someone in the leg, or worse.”

But the hold-up activity stopped after one of those vehicles slammed head-on into a CPD unit on the West Side. But none of the car’s occupants were charged with any of the robberies, and at least two carloads of accomplices remained at large.

Officers searched the area for suspects, described as Black men wearing dark clothing who may have traveled in a Kia sedan.

After the Mariel boat lift dumped hundreds of really bad ass criminals into Miami the Tampa police department started arresting criminals who lived in Miami. When asked why they were robbing houses and stealing cars in Tampa when they had an address in Miami they said, “Those Mariel guys are brutal. They told us if they see us robbing in their territory, they’ll kill us!”

Imagine when you’re the wimpy robber and the real McCoy comes along. I can almost picture some limp-wristed gay guy being bad in his most squeaky voice suddenly confronted by a Vin Diesel character from his most bad-ass movie. *camera turns away as blood splatters against a white wall.*

The only way this stops — the ONLY way — is for average Americans of all backgrounds to stand up together and say ‘no more.’ Do it via protests; via voting; via attending city and town council meetings; via attending school board meetings. Whatever it takes. Sadly, I don’t see this kind of mass push back happening. To be blunt, most people are just too lazy and/or are engaged in their own immediate lives to take this kind of action.

Hey CPD, thy this: The M32A1 Multi-Shot Grenade Launcher is the highest quality, safest, and most high performing 40mm MSGL on the market domestically.

If that does not work, I think there may be a few decommissioned Davy Crockets W54s lying about.

True. Personally I'm looking forward to the return of vigilante committees and lynch mobs. Git 'er done!

It's Chicago.

It's not like they didn't know this would happen. Chicago Voters and Politicians CHOSE this quality of life in Chicongo.

They should live it without complaint,

Especially about policy in other communities and states.

Thirty years from now the affluent will live in walled cities (not gated communities but actual walls) with their own shopping centers, restaurants, hospitals, and armed security.

Ask Brazil how this works.

FYI

‘Chicago Boys Town’ has been the name of the near north side location for many years for the homosexual young male population working in prostitution.

The Boystown noted in the title is an official gay are of Chicago.
I worked nearby in Lakeview for some years and it was a very safe neighborhood.

Those days are gone.

It occurs to me I wasn’t clear in my intent.

So far, the increased robberies in blue states have been perpetrated by people who just walk in, take a pile of stuff and walk out. Some of those are organized by pushers who are making their users do it to pay for drugs. Some are just people who convert the merchandise at ten cents on the dollar or worse, so they can get high.

But those wimps have shown the really bad-ass robbers, the kind who get off by shooting a few people just for the heck of it, that there’s no prosecution...no jail time. No nothing. No penalties at all. So, why not just steal whatever you want and maybe shoot a few people for fun?

It reminds me of an unremarked scene in the first “RoboCop” movie. Two actors are walking down the sidewalk in Detroit. There are shootings, arson, beatings all going on behind them and they chat like none of it is happening. That’s the way I see the blue cities now. The crime is so pervasive they just walk along chatting as if they were in a public park in some safe, rural town.

—”It’s Chicago.”

I live in a far, but not far enough, suburb.
Possibly some saw this coming, but not many and no one listened.

This is the path...and I am on it.

Dr. Peter Venkman : This city is headed for a disaster of biblical proportions.

Mayor : What do you mean, “biblical”?

Dr. Raymond Stantz : What he means is Old Testament, Mr. Mayor, real wrath of God type stuff.

Dr. Peter Venkman : Exactly.

Dr. Raymond Stantz : Fire and brimstone coming down from the skies! Rivers and seas boiling!

Dr. Egon Spengler : Forty years of darkness! Earthquakes, volcanoes...

Winston Zeddemore : The dead rising from the grave!

Dr. Peter Venkman : Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together... MASS HYSTERIA!

Mayor : All right, all right! I get the point!

That has been my view for many years.
And the approach is quicking.

“Those days are gone.”

My brother and sister in law came to visit us a few years back. We went to a show in Uptown and afterwards stopped at the Weiners Circle for a late night snack.

They said they might be coming again this summer as BIL has a show at McCormick Place tentatively scheduled. He said they’d like to repeat the experience. I told him that’s not a good idea these days.
