'Holistic solutions.' I am at a loss for words.

[Made In The USA]

How about enforcing laws and locking up criminals?

[Fido969]

What punk will be able to resist a high speed slalom? With shooting?

[Magnum44]

Either I have tuned out (highly possible) or the media hasnt reported on Portland conditions in a while. Is it Mad Max country up there still?

[M Kehoe]

Sheesh.

5.56mm

[M Kehoe]

Sheesh.

5.56mm

Hardesty admitted there is "no simple solution" to the shooting spike recorded...

How bout locking up the shooters?

[Billthedrill]

Oh, I get it. They're trying to discourage high-speed shootings. Change of policy.

[Rebelbase]

That's really going to strike fear into the hearts of gang bangers bent on vengeance.

[katana]

This will only improve the shooters’ aim and reduce wasted ammo.

I visited some in-laws in Park Ridge yesterday, including my brother-in-law (my wife's brother) and his wife. They moved to Park Ridge to be close to their only daughter, who lives with her family in my childhood neighborhood in the northwest side of Chicago.

That family has had 2 incidents in the past few weeks; a car on fire down the block from their house, and another car with numerous bullet holes parked in front of their house. Apparently their street is one of the routes drivers can take to cut from Elston to Foster, and has become a popular route for people who don't live around there to make sudden high-speed trips to avoid somebody they don't want to be around.

Can't imagine what that is like, because when I grew up around there the street problems usually involved kids skitching a ride during the winter. I suppose it will spread and escalate, and I will be hearing about more stuff happening around there.

Just happy I moved to the suburbs when I finished college and only go back to visit. The husband refers to the mayor of Chicago as "Auntie Lori", as in "Auntie Lori will fix that problem soon."

Geeze. Why didn’t we think of this before? I’m sure we will see a huge reduction in high speed shooting but we might see a huge increase in traffic barrel homicides.

[Seruzawa]

See tagline.

[kvanbrunt2]

sleeping policemen would be better.

[Recompennation]

Traffic calming???? barrels??
What’s required is a 44 barrel looking at the perps and backing voice that asks do you feel lucky, Punk!

[BatGuano]

Die Portland, DIE!
Self destruction is a fun thing to watch!
Keep up the good work, Die Portland, DIE!

[Old Yeller]

Polka, Polka, Polka!

Roll out the barrel, we'll have a barrel of fun
Roll out the barrel, we've got the blues on the run
Zing boom tararrel, ring out a song of good cheer
Now's the time to roll the barrel, for the gang's all here

Da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da

Then they hear a rumble on the floor-or-or-or
It's a big surprise they're waiting for
And all the couples they form a ring
For miles around you'll hear them sing

Zing do da do ding do da-do-do-day

Roll it out, roll it out, roll out the barrel
Dump-dump-da da-da da-dat en da-da-da-da-da
Sing a song of good cheer
'Cause the whole gang is here
Roll it out, roll it out
Let's do the beer barrel polka

[TauntedTiger]

How about one speed bump after another. Bumps every ten feet will show those renegades LE still cares about the safety of neighborhoods. /s

[JustaTech]

The orange light on top will make a challenging target for the typical gang shooter.

She looks like a somali crackhead:
