Rahm Emanuel
Chicago Reporter Goes Off Anti-Gun Reservation
Anyone who’s read/listened to the work of Chicago-based reporters over a period of time might detect the anti-gun bias that many of them seem to have. So I was somewhat shocked when the following appeared on the Chicago Sun-Times website the other day. Steve Huntley wrote on May 9:
Amid the gun control debate following the Newtown killings, average Americans could be forgiven for thinking — as polling shows most do — that gun violence is higher than 20 years ago. The truth is exactly the opposite — both the number and rate of gun murders have plunged since 1993.
In what can only be interpreted as a setback to the gun control crusade, two new studies document a remarkable trend in firearm crime. Gun-related homicides in 2011 numbered 11,101, down from 18,253 in 1993 — a 39 percent decline, according to the Justice Department’s Bureau of Justice Statistics. And the number of non-fatal firearm victims in the same period fell by more than two-thirds, from 1.5 million in 1993 to 467,300 in 2011. Separately, the Pew Research Center found that the nation’s gun homicide rate had fallen 49 percent between 1993 and 2010.
These declines came as the population of the United States increased, gun sales soared, and concealed-carry laws multiplied. Yes, the decline came as overall violent crime fell, guns account for 70 percent of murders, and major cities like Chicago are plagued by violence. But the bottom line is firearm violence has fallen to the point that most gun deaths aren’t murders — six in 10 of them are suicides.
(Editor’s note: Italics added for emphasis)
Huntley added later in the piece:
I’ve never owned a firearm and support reasonable gun legislation, but given the facts, has the legislative emphasis after Sandy Hook been focused too much on guns and not enough on the violently mentally ill?
(Editor’s note: Italics added for emphasis)
Nice to see some in the so-called “Fourth Estate” still asking thought-provoking questions. And reporting the facts. And checking their biases in at the door.
After penning this article, brave Mr. Huntley might want to be on the lookout for the following:
1. A bayonet being shoved up his butt by a former Chicago mayor
2. A dead fish being mailed to him by the current Chicago mayor
3. Being wire-tapped (plenty o’ stories going around about that this week- choose your own search engine)

Chicago Flash Mobs/Mob Attacks/Wildings Derailed This Summer?
South Side youths intent on carrying out a flash mob/mob attack/wilding in downtown Chicago may find themselves unable to get to their destination this summer.
From the Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) website this morning:
Coming: May 19, 2013
Faster. Smoother. Better.
Beginning May 19, 2013, the CTA will rebuild the tracks along the south Red Line, from Cermak-Chinatown to 95th/Dan Ryan—a project that will provide faster, more comfortable and more reliable service for Red Line riders.
From just north of the Cermak-Chinatown station to the 95th Street station, crews will replace everything in the track bed: ties, rail, third rail, ballast (the stone material that holds the ties in place) and drainage systems. Some stations will also receive improvements ranging from new canopies, paint and lighting upgrades to new benches and bike racks. Additionally, the stations at Garfield, 63rd and 87th will get new elevators, making all stations on the South Side Red Line accessible.
The south Red Line, called the Dan Ryan branch, is more than 40 years old and needs a full replacement…
The work is part of Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s Building a New Chicago program, which is updating infrastructure that’s critical to the city—and includes improvements that will help ensure that CTA continues to serve customers as effectively as possible.
The project is made possible by $1 billion in state and local funding announced in late 2011 by Mayor Rahm Emanuel and Governor Pat Quinn for the Red and Purple Lines.
The Red Line will completely close from Cermak-Chinatown through 95th/Dan Ryan. The closure is expected to last 5 months, until late October 2013.
Knowing all this, I won’t be surprised if it’s a “quiet” summer along the “Magnificent Mile” and in other tourist hotspots downtown. Still, if I were an urban dweller/visitor in that part of the city, I wouldn’t let my guard down for an instant. They shouldn’t be doing that anyway, especially as the more-established criminal element in the city is probably well-aware of the ongoing manpower shortage in the Chicago Police Department.
You can read more about that CTA project beginning this weekend here.

CBS Chicago Asks: Is Chicago, Cook County Safe From Terrorists?
From a CBS Chicago news broadcast last night:
ROB JOHHNSON: Chicago’s Mayor and Police Superintendent have said they would use lessons learned from the Boston Marathon bombings to make Chicago safer.
KATE SULLIVAN: But tonight, we’ve learned that they’ve already made some changes. Chief Correspondent Jay Levine sat down with Superintendent McCarthy and began by asking the simple question, “Are we safe?” So what do you say, Jay?
JAY LEVINE: One word Kate- absolutely.
Tuesday night, CBS Chicago’s Levine focused on Cook County as the second most populous county in the U.S. refines its anti-terrorism plans and procedures in the wake of the Boston terror attack (video segment here).
Personally, as long as our borders are as porous as they are, I won’t feel safe from terrorists. It won’t stop me from doing what I want, when I want, but you won’t see me at some mass gathering or in some other situation that screams “juicy jihadist target” anytime soon.
Besides, I dislike crowds.

Chicago May Update Emergency Plan After Boston Attack
Here’s something out of City Hall that all Chicagoans can get behind. From Craig Dellimore on the CBS Chicago website last week:
Mayor Emanuel says Chicago may revise its emergency medical plans in light of Boston’s response to the Boston Marathon bombings a week ago, reports WBBM Political Editor Craig Dellimore.
Mayor Emanuel says special circumstances not withstanding, Boston showed it was well-prepared to face a crisis when those bombs went off.
“Now not every time are you going to have an incident where you have medical care on-site because they had a marathon they had it on-site. That clearly saved lives. But having a well-rehearsed, well-planned, well thought out medical emergency response, was crucial in saving lives. We have a very good plan. We did it for NATO exercise. I have asked everybody to go back and look at it,” said Emanuel.
And he says after Boston authorities review their response, Chicago will see about updating its emergency plan.
I’ve never seen the City of Chicago’s “official” emergency preparedness plan. Even when I worked in the public safety field. Last I heard, the plan was closely-guarded. Leah Samuel wrote in The Chicago Reporter website back on September 12, 2007:
Although the federal government recommends that cities plan their responses to terrorism with inclusiveness and openness, Chicago’s emergency preparedness plan is known only to a few in city government, The Chicago Reporter has found.
Among those who haven’t been shown the plan are the city’s aldermen, firefighters and police officers.
“We do not discuss the particulars of our plan so as not to allow those who would harm us an additional way to create disorder,” Cortez Trotter, executive director of the Office of Emergency Communications, or 911 Center, said in a written statement. “Full disclosure of the plan might assist those who would thwart evacuation and rescue procedures.”
Samuel added later in the piece:
“We don’t want anyone to see it,” said Larry Langford, public information officer for the Office of Emergency Communications. He called the secrecy “an unfortunate by-product” of emergency planning: “You want to reassure everyone, but you don’t want to give the plan away.”
Here’s hoping more than just “a few in city government” are familiar with the City’s emergency preparedness plan in 2013.
Or else Chicago residents could really be screwed in a major crisis.

Poll: Illinois Voters Support More Gun ‘Control’
There’s a new poll out that suggests Illinois voters support more “gun control.” Frank Main reported on the Chicago Sun-Times website last night:
A new poll shows widespread support among Illinois voters across the political spectrum for the gun-control proposals being debated in Washington and Springfield.
By a 4-1 ratio, voters said they were more likely to elect legislative candidates who backed strong gun-control measures, according to the poll by Greenberg Quinlan Rosner.
Those voters included gun owners, the poll found.
“Widespread support among Illinois voters” for more gun “control”?
Maybe in the Chicagoland area, where plenty of my neighbors like to tell themselves “The Rahmfather” will protect and care for them in a jam.
But considering what I know about the rest of the state- I’m not sure I buy the poll’s findings.
Neither do the folks over at the popular Chicago police blog Second City Cop, who are not only calling the poll a “propaganda piece,” but won’t even link to it.
Main added that the National Rifle Association’s chief lobbyist in Illinois, Todd Vandermyde, said the wording of some poll questions was biased.
The thing is, I can’t find the actual poll questions anywhere to analyze them myself.
Hmm.
More red flags:
• According to the Sun-Times, Washington, D.C.-based Greenberg Quinlan Rosner “does work” for Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel, a unabashed supporter of gun “control”
• The Illinois Council Against Handgun Violence, a gun “control” group, commissioned the poll
• The release of the poll’s “findings” coincides with the massive gun “control” push this week at the various levels of government in the United States
Propaganda? May very well be.
Regardless, grad school/government work taught me not to put much stock in these things.

Chicago Looks To Tackle Wilding Problem
One needs only to follow local events (Second City Cop blog is my vehicle of choice) the last two years to recognize that Chicago has a wilding problem. So much so that City Hall is now even talking about clamping down on flash mobs/mob actions/mob attacks what have you. Fran Spielman reported on the Chicago Sun-Times website Monday night:
Ald. Brendan Reilly (42nd) has a plan to prevent a repeat of the ugly mob attacks that have plagued River North and downtown Chicago the past two summers: moonlighting, uniformed police officers paid for by local merchants.
Reilly wants to let local chambers of commerce, business improvement districts and “special service area” taxing districts hire off-duty Chicago Police officers to supplement regular police patrols…
Reilly’s ordinance, quietly introduced at last week’s City Council meeting, would allow off-duty officers to wear their uniforms while being paid $30 an hour by local businesses to work a minimum of six-hour shifts.
According to Spielman’s article, it sounds like area merchants and the Fraternal Order of Police support the proposed initiative. The City Hall reporter did point out that John Chikow, president of the Greater North Michigan Avenue Association, said there’s no money available to hire moonlighting CPD officers.
It sounds to me like the Association expects the City to pick up the tab for this program. Does anyone blame them for feeling this way? After all, their members and the revenue they generate are instrumental in keeping this city running.
Alas, this might not be an issue if the Chicago Police Department were operating at full-strength.
Still, it’s nice to see at least one elected official taking the wilding problem seriously. However, the City of Chicago needs to act now before the delinquents hit the streets. Without any additional measures in place this year I suspect 2013 is going to be another bad one for downtown Chicago when it comes to flash mobs/mob actions/mob attacks.
Remember what I blogged way back in May 2011 as all this was escalating:
If City Hall “loses” downtown to the bad guys- or, in this case, bad boys and girls- you lose the tourists, their money, revenue… you get the point.
You listenin’ Rahm?

Chicago Fast Becoming Undisputed ‘Gang Capital Of America,’ Needs More Police On Streets
“Illinois is number one per capita in gang membership for population. We have more gang members in our state, it is a long-term economic threat to our future.”
-U.S. Senator Mark Kirk (R-IL), in a phone interview with the Chicago Sun-Times that appeared on their website on March 15, 2013
Last Thursday, Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel unveiled the “Chicago Plays” Playground Program, where the Chicago Park District will rebuild, repair, and refurbish 300 playgrounds in neighborhoods across the city over the next five years using capital funds.
On Saturday, the Mayor announced more city dollars will be used to develop seven targeted Chicago neighborhoods through a new “Opportunity Planning” initiative.
Now, these sound like terrific projects. However, as Chicago is increasingly-seen as being a “war zone” these days, posing a real threat to the local economy (tourism, businesses) and the retention of residents, wouldn’t it make more sense that municipal funds are concentrated on combating violent crime first?
A serious effort to address the manpower shortage in the Chicago Police Department is probably a good place to start, with more cops on the streets (paid via overtime) possibly contributing to the historically-low number of murders in Chicago last month.
Otherwise, should crime be allowed to run rampant, the proposed developments may end up being pointless and those rebuilt, repaired, refurbished playgrounds might be empty, save for some gangbangers watching over their turf.
And Chicago has plenty of those around these days.
Consider the following from the website of Chicago Crime Commission, an independent, non-partisan, civic watchdog organization of business leaders dedicated to educating the public about the dangers of organized criminal activity, especially organized crime and street gangs. Talking about their recent publication, The Gang Book 2012, a comprehensive compilation of data and information concerning street gangs in the Chicagoland area, the Commission said:
There are an estimated 70 to 100 gangs in the Chicago metropolitan area with a membership of between 68,000 to over 150,000.
“Over 150,000”
Back on March 2, 2011, I blogged about DEA and local law enforcement estimates of there being over 100,000 gang members and 75 to 100 street gangs in the Chicago metropolitan area.
Speaking of the Commission and their book, there’s this from Wikipedia:
The newly released Chicago Crime Commission publication, “The Gang Book 2012”, conveyed the statistic that Chicago has more gang members than any other city in the United States: 150,000 members. Traditionally Los Angeles County has been considered the Gang Capital of America, with an estimated 120,000 (41,000 in the City) gang members.
Chicago has a higher rate of gang membership per capita than Los Angeles. The state of Illinois has a higher rate of gang membership (8-11 gang members per 1,000 population) than California (5-7 gang members per 1,000 population).
Sounds like Chicago is making good progress in wrenching away the title of “Gang Capital of America” from L.A.
I hear it being said more and more these days:
Chicago has a gang problem, not a gun problem.
I have a feeling City Hall realizes this already- but won’t take significant action on it for a number of reasons.
In which case, Chicago should prepare itself for becoming the undisputed “Gang Capital of America,” and eventually realizing that economic threat- among others- which Senator Kirk warned about.

Katrina General: Chicago Could Call On State, Federal Government To Help Combat Violent Crime
“State lawmakers, Rep. John Fritchey, 11th, and Rep. LaShawn Ford, 8th, are calling for Governor Quinn to deploy the Illinois National Guard to Chicago’s violent areas… 113 people have died in Chicago so far this year.”
-NBC Chicago website, April 26, 2010
“Rev. Jesse L. Jackson, Sr. and Rainbow PUSH Coalition call for immediate Federal Intervention and Homeland Security in Chicago as January homicide totals exceeded 45.”
-Rainbow PUSH Coalition press release, February 1, 2013
Earlier today, outside intervention to help fight violent crime in Chicago was brought up again. Lolly Bowean reported on the Chicago Tribune website:
To reduce the homicides and shootings plaguing Chicago streets, elected officials should consider calling on the state and federal governments for help, even the National Guard if necessary, said a retired Army lieutenant general who spearheaded the military response after Hurricane Katrina.
“Just like we do with any disaster. When the tornado comes, or the floods come, the federal government comes in to help,” Russel L. Honore said Thursday at a news conference in Chicago.
(Editor’s note: Italics added for emphasis)
The retired U.S. Army general’s plan? Bowean added:
To tackle the violence here, Honore said, the state police and other law enforcement agencies could lend a hand to local police. And the National Guard could take over routine duties, patrolling the streets and handling traffic, while police concentrate their efforts on solving crimes and increasing their presence in troubled neighborhoods.
Short of a colossal emergency/disaster, I can’t see something like this going down in the “Windy City” as it would effectively put a stick in the spokes of Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s political career and future aspirations. The only way I can see Rahm buying into something like this during “normal” times is if outside agencies were tasked with rounding up the guns- both “legal” and “illegal”- under the guise of some crisis. And I’ll be the first to admit that’s a stretch of the imagination. Ironically, one only needs to remember the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina to envision what a similar gun confiscation might look like.

Jesse Jackson Calls For Department Of Homeland Security To Patrol Streets Of Chicago
“State lawmakers, Rep. John Fritchey, 11th, and Rep. LaShawn Ford, 8th, are calling for Governor Quinn to deploy the Illinois National Guard to Chicago’s violent areas… 113 people have died in Chicago so far this year.”
-NBC Chicago website, April 26, 2010
113 murdered in Chicago from January to late April 2010, and some state legislators were calling for the Illinois National Guard to be deployed.
506 “official” homicides in 2012, and it’s the Department of Homeland Security that’s now being requested to patrol the streets of Chicago in an attempt to put a halt to escalating “gun violence.”
On February 1, the Chicago-based Rainbow PUSH Coalition (RPC) announced in a press release:
Chicago, IL (Friday, February 1, 2013) — Rev. Jesse L. Jackson, Sr. and Rainbow PUSH Coalition call for immediate Federal Intervention and Homeland Security in Chicago as January homicide totals exceeded 45. This morning, in Chicago, a woman’s van was riddled with bullets as she was executed on a major highway. Two days ago, a 15-year-old Dr. Martin Luther King College Prep honor student, who had recently performed as a majorette at the President’s inaugural ceremony, was killed after trying to seek shelter from the rain less than a mile away from the President’s home. Another student was shot but survived. The gunman is still at large. Days before these tragedies, seven people were killed, 6 from gunshots, all in one day; most of their murders have been unsolved. Reverend Jesse Jackson reaffirms that gun control reform is critical and the ban on assault weapons paramount.
(Editor’s note: Italics added for emphasis)
Reverend Jackson repeated his call for federal intervention before a march on the South Side this Saturday. Renita Young reported on the Reuters website that same day:
Civil rights leader Jesse Jackson and relatives of victims of fatal shootings in Chicago urged President Barack Obama on Saturday to come back to his hometown and address the gun violence plaguing the city.
Before a march on the city’s South Side, Jackson, a former Democratic presidential candidate, said America’s third most populous city needed more help than Mayor Rahm Emanuel and police superintendent Garry McCarthy could offer.
“When the president shows up, it shows ultimate national seriousness,” said Jackson, a Chicago resident. He also called for the U.S. Department of Homeland Security to help patrol the streets of Chicago.
(Editor’s note: Italics added for emphasis)
“America’s third most populous city needed more help than Mayor Rahm Emanuel and police superintendent Garry McCarthy could offer.”
Sounds like even the Reverend Jackson recognizes the Chicago Police Department could use some more manpower these days.
“He also called for the U.S. Department of Homeland Security to help patrol the streets of Chicago.”
When I hear calls for the National Guard, Homeland Security, or some other entity to descend upon the “City By The Lake,” I think of Bruce Willis’ line as General William Devereaux from the 1998 film The Siege:
The Army is a broad sword, not a scalpel. Trust me, senator- you do not want the Army in an American city.

Chicago Sees ‘Most Violent January In More Than A Decade’
I have a pretty good idea what a number of you will be thinking as you read this post:
How’s that gun “control” working out for you, Chicago?
From John Byrne, David Heinzmann, and Bob Secter on the Chicago Tribune website late last night:
Following the most violent January in more than a decade and the high-profile slaying of a 15-year-old high school band majorette, Mayor Rahm Emanuel and his police chief moved closer than ever Thursday to reintroducing the very police strategy they dumped when they took over in 2011.
Emanuel said he would move 200 officers off desk duty to bolster the size of roving teams aimed at suppressing outbreaks of murderous violence that have been on the rise in the city for more than a year.
“The most violent January in more than a decade.”
According to the Crime in Chicago blog yesterday, 44 people were murdered and 160 were shot in the city last month.
Now, back on New Year’s Eve, I noted that at the end of a year in which Chicago surpassed 500 murders (534 according to CIC), the number of beat cops was less than before Rahm Emanuel became mayor.
So, why not just hire more police officers then?
Byrne, Heinzmann, and Secter (sounds like a law firm) added:
The head of the police union said retirements and a lack of new hiring amid tight budget years has reduced the size of the force well below what is needed to keep the streets safe.
“No matter how City Hall slices the numbers or spins this issue, the fact remains we have less officers on the street now than when the mayor was elected,” said Mike Shields, head of the Fraternal Order of Police.
At the news conference announcing his new plans, Emanuel said “you don’t ask the taxpayers to pay for additional cops until you make sure you’re using every cop on the payroll today effectively.”
Personally, I think City Hall is well-aware of the significant, fast-approaching fiscal challenges that are in store for Chicago, so basically “what you see is what you get” could be the case for Chicago Police Department manpower. As things stand, taxes will be going up- significantly- but one has to wonder how much of it will be earmarked for the following, which I blogged about back on August 1:
The “Windy City” has a $25 billion pension crisis that will require property taxes to be doubled by 2015 (from an anticipated $476 million this year to $1.2 billion in 2015) if no changes are made to both retirement benefits and City of Chicago employee contributions.
Remember that $2.98 billion the city received when the Chicago Skyway and parking meters were privatized under former Mayor Richard M. Daley? Only $623 million remains.
The analysis comes on the heels of year-end audit findings that show Chicago is in the midst of a debt crisis, adding $465 million of debt in 2011 to a total long-term debt that’s sitting at just over $27 billion.
(Editor’s note: Italics added for emphasis)
Chicagoans- be prepared to bust out those wallets very shortly.
To wrap things up, one sentence in that Tribune piece really stood out for me. Byrne, Heinzmann, and Secter wrote:
But the events of this week show that tragedy can strike anywhere, and calibrating how and where to stretch those resources is difficult in a city with a deeply entrenched culture of violence.
(Editor’s note: Italics added for emphasis)
“Culture of violence?”
Sounds like Second City Cop wasn’t too far off the mark with that “Culture of Death” comment the other day.
Watch your six, Chicago.
