Been in San Francisco two hours. So far I’ve seen two street people square off for a fight, watched rampant shoplifting from Target, and been told valet parking is $80.
Fun times.

It’s not good to live through (I remember the early 90s when I started as cop) but this stuff is a great study in whether Broken Windows works.

real horror video for Halloween:

Bucktown father is carjacked at gunpoint while loading child into the family car on Halloween morning — and it’s all on video.

not #Ghetto, here's a picture of that party house so I for one would toss all those recommendations about nice green streets doing anything about gun violence, you either carry or you don't, have gun, will travel to the suburbs for parties (not to mention places like college campuses, another favored place for gun violence lately) -

Not sure on this one, was it a Halloween special? Or more of a year-round "Florida man" thing?

From @CSTopinion:

It’s time for a summit. Chicago needs more and better strategies to stop violent crime. It needs to hear the voices of those who can help, writes the CST Editorial Board. https://t.co/Zr6b7GUxdZ
— Chicago Sun-Times (@Suntimes) October 30, 2021

Remember earlier this year when waves of kids kept overrunning the Loop? Fighting, robbing, sometimes shooting?

One night, somebody gave cops the OK to lock up the troublemakers.

Hasn't been a problem since.

Repeat with murderers, shooters, and robbers.

End of summit. https://t.co/b3hhaBgxSV

...For some reason, there's a desire in some circles to make it all seem much more difficult than it is. Try this:

Identify murderers, shooters, and violent offenders
Arrest them
Prosecute them
Incarcerate them
— CWBChicago (@CWBChicago) October 31, 2021

Makes sense to me that you solve any incarceration/recidivism problems later; they are separate, because the urgent thing is that people are losing their lives.

The only rational alternative is to confiscate every gun in the area, door to door. And that's not going to happen.

It has nothing to do with outlawing guns - liberals are being absurd to bring this up - because guns are already outlawed in Chicago. You can even outlaw guns nationally to tamp down the interstate transport of them BUT THE GUNS THAT ARE ALREADY OUT THERE WILL STILL BE THERE. WITHOUT CONFISCATION, outlawing them is not going to help much, it may even improve their allure as symbols of anti-law power and therefore won't curb gun-associated crime at all. Locking up those who have used them and are clearly willing to keep using them is the only sensible step until the number of guns available are reduced. With strong sentences, so that those types realize the serious nature of choosing to use guns.

This is why BLM 2020 protests were such a big fail for our country: in encouraging many more gun purchases for self-protection. They did so not only because there was rioting and looting, but because they were questioning the existence of policing, so: time to buy a gun, just in case.

Flight attendant suffers broken bones in ‘one of the worst displays of unruly behavior’ in the skies

The incident prompted the pilots to divert the flight to Denver, where a passenger was temporarily detained

By Lori Aratani, October 28, 2021 at 5:06 p.m. EDT

A flight attendant for American Airlines suffered broken bones in her face and had to be hospitalized after a passenger allegedly attacked her Wednesday in an incident the company’s chief executive called “one of the worst displays of unruly behavior we’ve ever witnessed.”

The incident occurred on a flight from New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport to John Wayne Airport in Orange County, Calif. It prompted the pilots to divert the flight to Denver, where the passenger was temporarily detained.

The flight attendant apparently bumped the passenger while moving through the first-class cabin, according to Julie Hedrick, president of the Association of Professional Flight Attendants, which represents those who fly for American Airlines. The flight attendant apologized, but the passenger left his seat, confronted her as she stood in the aircraft’s galley, then punched her in the face, Hedrick said.

Hedrick said the flight attendant was taken to a hospital for treatment of broken bones in her face. She was later released.

The incident echoed one from earlier this year in which a Southwest Airlines flight attendant lost several teeth after a passenger allegedly punched her in the face. The attacks come on the heels of an increase in incidents in which passengers have shouted obscenities, pushed and shoved flight attendants, harassed other passengers or even attempted to open the cockpit door [....]
