Chicago Crime Tracking Thread

[WesCrook]

i've been hearing, and seeing this same back and forth in online discussions since the 90's, going back to AOL chat rooms and forums on dial up.

the shyt ain't gonna change unless they basically declare marial law in those communities.

I'm not even sure they can do that, but sitting around debating it and marching clearly ain't working.

They tried that in LA 30 years ago. We know how that turned out.

Yes, Chicago was always violent...even more violent than it is now if we go by number of homicides, but it wasn’t this random shyt like it is today. They had a code back then. I remember when Yummy Sandifer killed that innocent 14 year old girl, and before the police got to him, members of his own gang took him out. shyt like that goes unchecked now.

Also, because everything isn’t really under an umbrella anymore and they’re just a bunch of random cliques, there literally is no organization. These dusty nikkas aren’t even out here getting money like that. Basically shooting over dumb shyt.

They killed yummy cuz they thought he would snitch not cuz of no code. Them bd's the ones who told that lil nikka to shoot

Only thing worse than shyt that happens in Chicago is the shyt I see yall say in these threads about it.

You talking about the whole Daryl gates situation? If so that’s not what I’m talking about, I’m taking about military:

I'm afraid that violence like this will exist in cities like Chicago and Baltimore (my birthplace) until the day I die.

No shyt Sherlock. He brought heat to all of them. My point is that back then, it was more under an umbrella and not these random little cliques.

Chicago is sleep.....and been sleepin’

They’re having a live stream with rahm and the police chief addressing the community - NONE OF THE MAJOR NEWS OUTLETS ARE BROADCASTING THIS

Chicago isn't even the most violent city in America yet it's always in the media spot light for political reasons or when they wanna pass laws or something. They did it back in 94 when they were pushing the crime bill, they did it in 96 when they limited welfare and then in 2000 when they wanted to demolish public housing projects across the country. They always use Chicago ills or issues as some political tool especially the Democrat party.

They found her body in that little walk thru tunnel on 108th I'd played in hundreds of times as a kid. Seeing it all sealed up whenever I go to my dads house takes me right back to that summer.

My first day at Corliss we had a moment of silence in my division (home room) because she was supposed to have been there. Her name was still on the dam roll call because she was killed the week before school started. Would have been sitting right in front of me.

After Ms Mount told us that, we left her seat open for months. It was a high key traumatizing first day of High school for me.

Damn...

And this is the type of stuff that we have to deal with. Even if it’s not US personally, it affects us psychologically. I guarantee every black person in the inner city by the time they turn 18 knows at LEAST one person who was killed as a result of gun violence.

Martial law ain’t the answer because in the end it could go horribly wrong. The answer is a lot of things but one main thing is for accountability and takes collective effort from the whole community. The youth have to be taught skills so they can find work. Also tougher parenting needs to be done. There is no reason for a child aged 11 be out the streets at 3am. These parents in these neighborhoods are working multiple job or are terrible parents so they don’t have time to truly raise their child.
Also we have to address that two generations of baby mamaism and daddyism is leading to dysfunction and the decline of the black community. Nowhere in the history of mankind had there ever been a successful race of people that have high rates of children being born out of wedlock, born into single parent homes, born into parents not ready to raise a child.

Also the old heads gotta step up. In Queens there was this old head that used to be a drug dealer in Queensbridge houses during the 90s He served time and got out around 2010. He saw that shyt hadn’t change in the projects so he and other reformed gangstas got together and basically made a neighborhood watch and gave game to the youth crime doesn’t pay. And the initiative worked. Years later around 2 years ago Queensbridge the notorious projects went a year without a murder or shooting. Not because of heavy policing because the men of the community got together and became leaders to protect and teach the youth like men should do. It was such a success that other infamous projects like Albany Houses,Pink Houses,Oceanview houses,Marlboro houses are copying the same initiative. The men in those communities became leaders and are being neighborhood watches,stopping beefs, teaching young black men that reaching for a gun doesn’t do nothing but bring prison time and death. This can be done in Chicago.

some of these old heads are drugged out now, at least the legit ones who aren’t dead, doing football numbers or working a 9-5, and most of them are scared of these youngins.
