Rahm Dead Fish Emanuel is having a tough time intimidating gangsta thugs.
From CBS News.
Chicago is in the grips of a deadly gang war. At least 275 people have been killed in the city so far this year and many more have been shot, many of them innocent bystanders to the gang violence. Among the latest victims were 12- and 13-year-old girls shot Tuesday night. They survived.
Sgt. Matt Little leads one of the teams in Chicago’s Gang Enforcement Unit. There are about 200 such officers in the city– versus 100,000 gang members.
“Almost all the violence we’re seeing now is from the gangs,” Little said. “When there’s a shooting we’ll respond to the shooting. We’ll figure out where we believe the most likely area for retaliation is and we’ll work that area trying to both prevent retaliation and possibly build a case on offenders.”
CBS News rode along with Little’s team as dusk fell on poor neighborhoods of vacant lots and high anxiety.
“The gangs have lost their hierarchy, so to speak, and without a chain of command, there’s really nobody keeping things in check,” Little said. The leaders are mostly in prison — or dead. Those left are young, reckless, and often terrible shots.
“Instead of a bullet with somebody’s name on it, we have a bullet that reads ‘To whom it may concern,'” Little said. The result is a spate of shootings that have killed or wounded young children, even toddlers.
The victims include 7-year old Heaven Sutton, (above) shot to death selling candy outside her house. Ten-year old Kitanna Peterson, ( below) was playing by a fire hydrant when she was shot last week. A stray bullet went through her wrist and abdomen.
Emanuel has decided to take a kinder, gentler approach:
“We’ve got two gang-bangers, one standing next to a kid. Get away from that kid. Take your stuff away to the alley. Don’t touch the children of the city of Chicago. Don’t get near them. And it is about values. … And I don’t buy this case where people say they don’t have values. They do have values. They have the wrong values. Don’t come near the kids—don’t touch them.
Just Say No. Yeah, that’ll work with the homies. Fuckin’ moron. Maybe he should send rotting carp and perform table-stabbing theatrics, instead.

Where the hell are the New Black Panthers????? Where is Jesse Jackson?!?!?! Where is that most irreverent Al Sharpton. All talk, talk, talk, about the black man being put down by the white man. But when there is a real crisis, when black people are killing black people, WHERE THE HELL ARE ALL OF THE SELF-RIGHTEOUS BLACK LEADERS?!?!?!?!?!?
This is the land of Obama and Holder. And what are they doing for their community???? Obama sees that he has Illinois all tied up for reelection so he gives a big “hell to them!” See how your community organizer and his henchmen like big “Raumbo” take their job of defending innocent people from criminals?
Jesse Jackson: you are a self-righteous filthy race baiting oxygen thief hiding under your desk looking for another one of your staff members to practice impregnating.
Al Sharpton: the clown that does not need a mask, racking up big legal fees for bogus law suits involving outrageous allegations of race.
The New Black Panthers: if they are not at a poling place trying to intimidate 5 foot-tall, 70-year-old women trying to vote they are off at Disney World laughing it up with Micky Mouse. Once in a while they interrupt their Disney World adventure to talk about killing the white man over Zimmerman.
You black people totally piss me off. This is the most outrageous demonstration of abandonment, cowardice, and dereliction of your support for your fellow man. The only thing that any of you cowards warrant is the opportunity to put a gun barrel in your respective mouths (anal cavity will work too) and pull the trigger. All of you are absolutely pathetic. You put up all your bullshiite about solidarity through black college funds, black housing projects, etc., and look what you got. You argue you want to be treated like everybody else and you do everything you can to segregate other people out of your community because of their COLOR. Then you knife each other in the back like a bunch of sociopaths.
I dare ANY black person to come to this blog and talk about the “white man” being responsible for this. I left the reservation and made a life for myself long ago. Many other Natives have done so as well. I go back and help when I am needed. And all of you black people just sit back and let this shit go on. Well, fine. I hope you all blow your respective brains onto the streets.
Maybe if you wait long enough, these sorry sacks of shit that go around shooting defenseless little girls will be the only thing left. Then you can just drop a of few daisy cutters in there and say that you took care of the bad guys cause all the innocent people were already killed. Or better yet, Holder will give them more of those guns meant for Mexico and maybe they will just kill themselves off? Why should innocent people have guns?!?!? Holder is busy brainwashing us into thinking that innocent people using guns to defend themselves cause crime in his hometown mess called Chicago.
You want my respect and concern, NAACP?!?!?! Then earn it you pussy ass cowards and clean up your fucking mess.
