Chicago community group requests that gangs refrain from shooting during the daytime

| August 22, 2023

Native Sons, a community group in Chicago, asked Chicago’s gangs to refrain from engaging in their firefights from 9 in the morning until 9 in the evening. This community group feels that if their request is implemented, safety would improve. Native Sons wants to reduce the chances that innocent bystanders get caught in the crossfire.

From the Post Millennial:

“We have to start somewhere,” Native Sons co-founder Tatiana Atkins told CWBChicago. “Our goal is to approach our city’s gun violence problem strategically and not all at once. Things didn’t become this way overnight, and change won’t happen overnight.”

“Under this ordinance, we ask that people stop associating with and glorifying’ shooters,’ stop glorifying ‘switches,’ and stop wearing those ski masks everywhere which perpetuates you as some ‘opp,'” Atkins said. “When those who live a certain lifestyle try to hang with ‘regular’ class citizens, they put everyone at risk.”

Along with the time limits, the ordinance called on Chicagoans to stop glorifying gangsters and gangsters to stop trying to “hang with ‘regular’ class citizens,” thereby putting everyone at risk.

“If people know that after a certain hour, the likelihood of them being shot by an unknown and unprovoked assailant are at a higher risk,” Atkins suggested, “they will be less likely to be out and about, and they may become more proactive with the supervision of their children.”

“At the end of the day, five-year-olds are being killed by gun violence, 14-year-olds are being killed by gun violence, 78-year-olds are being killed by gun violence, pregnant women are being killed by gun violence, young boys with bright futures are being killed by gun violence, fathers are being killed by gun violence, and this shouldn’t be happening,” Atkins said.

They are going to have to stretch it to midnight. You can’t expect your ten year old to be home by 9.

Old tanker

Especially since the 7 year olds are already inducted into the gangs….

Pritzker’s yellow vested “peacekeepers” not working out? Call the Mayor.

Rambo has the appropriate response to “violence begats violence” whiny left/libtard peacenik types:

This is the new Yellow vest. The idea was so good that one of the Aldermen promoted it in an email. That pretty much put them on notice. Once the city puts their foot down they will be on the straight and narrow. The only murdering will be after 9pm.

Have they tried a sternly worded letter yet?

Odie

Oh no … not the sternly worded letter. There will be hell to pay.

rgr769

The letter won’t help in many cases, 2/3rds of them cannot read.

Odie

True.

UpNorth

Maybe they can get the government to give them ca$h to hire readers. I bet 3 or 4 million bucks would cover the cost of 10 readers.

I thought midnight basketball games were going to solve this.

At least they have the “toughest” gun laws in America.

SFC D

That’s the best you can come up with, Chicago? You and San Francisco make quite a pair.

Odie

Wee, they both have piers ya know.

Odie

Well, not wee.

Hate_me

For some reason, “Wee” seems to fit.

BlueCord Dad

Yeah, this will work…NOT

KoB

It might…if they ask nicely and say “Pretty Please with sugar on top”?

SPoTW Thread dropping early…AGAIN?

Can’t understand why all of these gunz have to commit all of this violence. Mine were all very well behaved and well trained. Too bad I never trained them how to swim. Damn a leaky boat all to hell.

Odie

Look how much money could be saved with proper boat maintenance.

Sparks

Well, good luck with that.

Native Naive Sons, fify.

Tell the mayor-in-name-only I said “mob”. That’ll distract him for a couple hours and maybe an adult can get some work done.

FYI: 8 killed, 34 wounded this weekend in that festering wound. (heyjackass.com)

Just as our WOT:FoF Crown bearer-not-wearer has implied with that one word, over and over, these shenanigans are coming to a burg near you!

Had a hard time massaging the search to find the mayor of miserytown reacting to mob mob mob MOB MOB.

You ‘elect’ a clown and you get a circus.

“…these shenanigans are coming to a burg near you!”

My ‘burg says…I wish a mofo would. And, yes…we ARE a small town. Just an FYI, Pro Tip…The High Sheriff is a personal fren’, I’m known of and to his deputies (they know who to call if back up is needed), Hizz Honor, the Judge, is a not too distant Cousin, I have bail money AND can sign a property bond.

Prepare.

Face the garden gnomes to the street with a sturdy landscape behind them. A scenic backdrop if you will.

R&D for when they’re inside the wire…

So, what’s the plan? Shoot the Roomba as it randomly moves around your house? I think that bullet would be better expended on the home invader.

KoB

Thinking more Blue Tooth Joy Stick Controller with contact or proximity switches. Imma low on crew served weapons and some of the Defence Forces are tech savvy young’uns.

SFC D

Just make sure the cat ain’t riding it. On second thought…

Odie

You say that like it’s a bad thing.

I have to pay attention to the IPN texts I get daily from the chicago shootings and see if this holds true but I think I remember shootings after the 9 AM cease fire. Will try and be more aware. How come the mayor doesn’t ask for NATO troops to keep watch.

They’re hopin’ for UN peacekeepers.

I’d get a couple of drones with cameras, pop some popcorn and make some 💰 streaming the Chicago gangbangers shooting it out with the blue helmets. As I’ve said before, one of my favorite things in life is watching one group of motherfuckers I don’t like fighting another group of motherfuckers I don’t like.

AW1 Rod

Sure! Just ask the ShitCongo gang bangers nicely to refrain from killing each other between 0900 and 2100! What a GREAT idea! I’m sure it’ll make a HUGE difference!

Wow. REALLY???

Odie

Better ideas from our betters.

You know how they are:

Yeah, gangs are definitely going to abide by this. Let’s just call a truce, a la The Warriors, because that piece of fiction shows how peaceful gangs are. The Orphans, Baseball Furies, Lizzies, and Punks will all come to terms with the titular Warriors to ensure peace in our time.

My policy to avoid, or at least mitigate the chances of falling victim to gang violence is the following:

Stay out of Baton Rouge (and never visit Chicago).
If I have to go to the city, avoid high-crime areas.
Have situational awareness.
Carry guns.
Carry spare ammunition.
Train with said guns.
Be friendly and generous, while at the same time being prepared to utilize whatever force is necessary for survival of me and loved ones.

That’ll buff right out. Or, use as a party bus. No security deposit for damages needed.

Anything imminent with verifying and exposing new phonies?

Phonies wearing the ballcap
Purple Heart / Combat Wounded
may be on the rise (again).

It certainly appears this way on the Book of the Fake,
with a spate of new posts
about local Phony Purple Heart turds
(all with this type of ballcap).

Several posting about suspected phonies
in public and private FaceBook groups
have been advised to report their local area phonies
to the “Report Stolen Valor” page at MP.

Looking forward to MP / VG spitting out more of these Phony PH turds.

Let’s hope this trend isn’t reemerging, but I guess I can see it now that the “long wars” are behind us. It’s been just long enough that people will start making claims about “their time” in Iraq and/or Afghanistan. How long before “I was boots on the ground in Kabul two years ago, got this medal for pulling my friend to safety, and the Purple Heart for almost losing my left eye”?

For nearly 20 years, there was a treasure trove of valor to be stolen. Iraq, Afghanistan, and of course the smaller scale operations in the Horn of Africa, Syria, and other countries, means that those that didn’t can claim to have did, with it being a little harder (but nowhere near impossible) to fact-check them.

Shitcago kiddies must go to school after 9am.

Skool?

Veritas Omnia Vincit

Sometimes the only thing a culture of celebrity that surrounds ignorance and violence understands is the threat of of overwhelming violence and no profit….

We are already at war as a nation within ourselves, and the average citizen is losing badly at this point. If we don’t figure this out quickly there will be no nation to give to our grandchildren and great grandchildren.

As long as they also kindly police up their brass from where they were shooting as well, as it is a slipping hazzard.

SFC D

If someone gets shot outside of the appointed hours, does it not count on the daily score?

Forest Bondurant

The next move will be to offer cash payments to gang members as an incentive to stop the violence.

Might not be the most effective.
