Chicago desperately needs concealed carry. This type of flash mob behavior is going on across the City. Aggressive gangs of youth are gathering and terrorizing citizens.

This happened so badly at Water Tower Place that extra patrols were placed on foot on the ground to control the crowd. At last years Taste of Chicago a gang fight erupted that lasted over a half dozen blocks and which police couldn't stop or control. It was a real taste of Chicago.

It's only going to get worse as summer progresses. These crimes and deaths sit squarely on the heads of our local liberals and gun nuts*, but I repeat myself.

*person who blames guns for all crimes instead of the criminals who commit them and seeks to disarm the honest and lawful to the benefit of the criminal element.

A man who was killed trying to protect his girlfriend and a 16-year-old girl were among six people killed and at least 21 others wounded in separate shootings over the Memorial Day holiday and into the night, officials said.

Two of the non-fatal shootings took place at a South Side beach.

If it is true why deny it? Why abjure an opportunity to show how the people are being protected?

Recall the riots of the 60s and how national politics changed because of them.

It could very get so bad that even one day the regular police will end up having to call in either the SWAT or the NG to bring law and order back.

Yes, being allowed to protect yourself with a firearm would help, but there is something else going on here that is very troubling. There appears to be a growing lack of a moral code, lack of respect for others, lack of respect for the law and for those who have been authorized to uphold it, and a general lack of respect for life. We have big problems.

Heard and read reports of violence in many locations this Memorial Day weekend. Chicago, Boston, Myrtle Beach, Atlanta, Charlotte, and this may be a partial list, of those locations where violence took place. There is conversation of this (violence and gang activity) may have been a coordinated effort setup via twitter or perhaps another media function to organize the gang violence activity. Thirty years of having removed God from the schools is sending the chickens home to roost ... imho

I knew it was only a matter of time where we move from having innocent public dancing or singing sessions from a flash mob to criminal activity.

It won’t be long before we see coordinated armed assaults in areas, a gang or terrorist group could take over an area before the police mount a response.

There was violence in several cities over the weekend, all instigated by black gangs. Something not reported in the media. It’s the beginning of the end. Welcome to the Dark ages.

Over at Chicago cop blog we have many who are fed up:
"Take off the gloves" you say? I think not. The people of the city of Chicago, the politicians, the lawyers (money grubbing scum) and the MB (code for make believe)Reverends, have OK'd the prosecution of police officers for that sort of behavior. Then they have allowed the animals to sue us to take everything from us and our families.

They batter us and shoot at us with impunity.

The politicians take tax payer money and give it to these same animals and say that it's cheaper to pay what they call a "nuisance suit" than to fight them. Now these mutts, that have never and will never work a day in their lives, that have never paid a dime in taxes, now know that all they have to do is call "Lovey and Lovey" and sue the city and the police officer and get $10,000 or so. That may not seem like a lot of money to you, but think about it, you don't pay for food, housing, medical, utilities and you sling dope on the corner and pull in $500.00 to $1,000.00 a day tax free and then screw the police officer and his family out of anything Lovey gets his hands on.

Sorry, I'm done playing.

You have the police dept. that the Liberal Democrats have demanded, enjoy it.
