Chicago, IL—A violent purse snatcher is captured by bystanders as a professional news photographer documents the criminal’s resistance to a citizen’s arrest. Before it’s over the unidentified thug is bloodied. Had Chicago police officers caused that incidental injury they’d be stripped of the stars, firearms and police powers perhaps for months until they are cleared of wrongdoing or are suspended or fired.
As for the hapless mutt, he was eligible for release for a $100.00 cash misdemeanor bond. This fellow is undoubtedly free right now to do his deeds until he gets caught killing someone or gets killed.
If you live in Chicago you’re used to avoiding these predatory savages. They are here to stay. Don’t ask the police to risk their lives but also the ability to feed their families by confronting and arresting criminals.
Chicago police have been transformed to observe and report rather than actually enforce the law.
Go ahead brush up on your unarmed combat skills so you can waste a whole lot of your time in court.
See all the pictures and hear the photographer describe the event.
Comments
I expect to see Cook County Board President Candidate, Lt. John Garrido, to be upfront and leading the troops if he expects a single police vote.
Mike Shields was elected by us to represent us, he had better be upfront leading. Mike loves to tell the story about how his brother led the troops into the Mayor's office during the last contract march. Talk is cheap, lets see you lead us now. No more talk about taking Daley out. Talk is cheap, we demand action.
Jimmy Maurer can now lead us too, now that he got a taste of City Hall. Jimmy it's time to ante up and lead the mean and women like a real General would do.
I also expect to see all of the FOP & PBPA officers leading from the front. If you expect us to vote for any of you, LEAD!
The time is now, the media is keenly focused on Chicago and the Mayor is weak.
Lets saddle up and get er done!

Spread the word, now is the time. The national and international media are still focused on the folly of the 2016 Olympic bid.
Bad enough an animal is running loose on the streets, but the "victim" then lets him go by failing to prosecute?
If true, why put yourself out when the victim doesn't give a damn?
This can't be real!
