Chicago Murder #500

How America can stand to have this many murders in their cities I will never know.

Well, as long as only 25 of the 500 were white, non-Hispanic, I don't believe we care all that much. To be perfectly frank.

Especially because the vast majority are thugs killing thugs. It's a self correcting system.

I don't think that's it. There's never been an effective or efficient way of dismantling organized crime within the confines of due process. That was true when the Italian and Russian mafias were running things and it's still true today with the rise of Black and Hispanic gangs. The only way to end it is to recognize it for what it is (domestic terrorism) and approach it as such.

from the link above:

83.4% of deaths were from shootings, 6.7% stabbings, and 6.5% assaults. Of the 362 firearm homicides, 351 (97%) were from handguns. 77% of all homicide victims had a prior arrest history. Victims were 90% male.


In 2011, there were 140 convicted offenders for the 128 victims with an associated prosecution. There were more offenders than victims because 10.7% of homicides had two offenders and 10.0% had three or more offenders convicted. 87% of all offenders had a prior arrest history. Offenders were 88% male.

Not sure why you would think non-Hispanic Whites are not a part of organized crime. They're just not on the trigger end of it is all.

Offenders by Race:

Note the "other." One Asian convicted of murder in Chicago. One. So, either they do not kill or they are the smartest of the bunch and actually committed the 500 homicides which went un-prosecuted.

Calling a matter that should be handled by civilian police with a military declaration, calling it terrorism is a VERY slippery slope.

Yep. We don't need to get the army involved. That is for sure. Just let them shoot it out. Eventually there won't be anyone left.

I'd be willing to bet that if 95% of the 500 murders in a single American city happened to white, non-Hispanic victims instead of 5%...you'd see someone actually do something about this. You'd certainly see it on every news channel 24/7, and no one, not one person, would be saying we have too many "aggressive" cops in the neighborhood.

Victims by Race:

If that happened in a white neighborhood, we would not be leaving the house without a police escort. Hell, we'd probably forego the smart phone and gameboys to hire a private security firm to take us to work.
