The two men responsible for the shooting are career criminals, the type that should never have been let out of prison but were.
The Chicago police are apparently not happy about how the city coddles these criminals.

The Chicago Fraternal Order of Police has had enough.
At 2am in the morning, the President of the FOP emailed us from his official account… pic.twitter.com/0amclwo1Of

It was all fun and games until they killed a cop. Now the shit us going to hit the fan.
One wonders why Chicago cops stay there. Even just a week long strike would send a helpful message; mass resignation & move to Texas even more so.
I don’t think anything will change in Chicago. The Union will posture and scream for a while. The mayor will ignore all of the posturing and rhetoric while blaming guns. The media will gloss it over and it will be gone from the news cycle in a week. The 80/20 rule applies to crime – 80% of the crime is done by 20% of the criminals. Life will go on as before because LIBERALS control Chicago and they will not remove habitual criminals from society, or execute them for killing people. Liberals just will not do it. I think that these 2 wastes of oxygen will go to jail for a few years then be released again to prey upon society.
Looks like the FOP’s account was spoofed. Probably by BLMchi itself to generate some more hate.
Do you suppose since judges allowed sandy hook to sue Remington, couldnt Chitown cops now sue beetlejuice under the same (similar) type lawsuit. After all whats good for the goose…..
Maybe they should stop protecting her..
I think I read the straw purchaser of the gun was caught, charged and released without bail, and the Chicago police chief was incensed.
Roost, meet chicken.

IL just passed a slew of laws to make ownership even harder. Everyone needs to point to this whenever ‘stricter gun laws’ are demanded.
The professional politicians don’t want to solve any of the “problems”, most of which they created, because then we wouldn’t need them.
They want more gun laws so they can hassle the law abiding folks, but they let the real criminals off so there’s more crime, so they can justify more laws.
It isn’t just Lori Lightfoot, the openly racist, heterophobic, divisive Mayor of Chicago that is a problem. The local States Attorney (DA/Head Prosecutor) Kim Foxxx is a Soros DA and refusing to even prosecute many crimes, CRook County Sheriff Dart has closed 75% of the jail space, and the Chief Judge and most of the other judges never saw a criminal that was not just a misunderstood yute needing love, not jail. Felons with guns are being released on little or no bail.
You want a perfect example of White Privilege? Look at the racial make up of Chicago Homicide Victims. Four Percent (4%-18 of 455) are White or Asian, 83.3% (379) are Black, and 12.7% (58) are Hispanic. Source:

All those Blacks are not being killed by any Rogue Police Death Squads or roving bands of white supremacists. They are being killed by their fellow Black Men. If only Black Lives Really Mattered to Black Men?
The FOP are correct
Gee… what are the odds?
Politicians and activists all claim that cops are out targeting blacks for murder, across the board.
Neighborhood “leaders” are getting hundreds of thousands of likes on social media posting messages that say blacks should not cooperate with cops if they are stopped.
And, cops are being defunded, ignored, and blamed for the violence happening in Democrat run cities.
Is it any surprise that some aspiring rapper who is turning his life around decided to kill a few cops?
Democrats hate the police and when one is killed it is cause for celebration. It fills them with happiness and joy. Especially if the are white. After all to democrats the only good cop is a dead cop except when used as there personal security detail. But they hate those cops too. It’s jus not a good idea yet to throw a public celebration.
They love criminals. After all using criminals and there violence is a great way to push there agenda. And they need them so they can hire them later to be enforces are kill there opposition.
Kind of like in Robocop 3.
I don’t think this is the first time the cops turned their backs on Mayor Frogger.
Maybe. MAYBE. With that hypocritical asshole in the Mayor’s office, and what passes for ‘leadership’ in Chicago PD.
Found this at Second City Cop about the leadership:
” To start with, the person in charge of the most solemn and sacred of traditions, revealed his outright disdain for the men and women of the Department in the most disgusting display of ignorance we have ever had the misfortune to witness:
“First Deputy Police Supt. Eric Carter infuriated officers gathered Saturday night at the Cook County medical examiner’s office to give their slain colleague, Ella French, a final send-off.”
“Ignoring a sacred ritual, Carter impatiently declared: “We don’t have 20 minutes for this s—.” He demanded the Chicago Fire Department ambulance bearing French’s body be taken directly into the medical examiner’s office, skipping the Emerald Society’s traditional playing of bagpipes.”
“We’re not waiting on the bagpipes. Go ahead and get the vehicle inside,” Carter is heard saying on a recording. “Take it all the way inside. Do not stop.”
With ‘leadership’ like this, I’m amazed even the bad cops will stay.
Oh, and he also notes this from Sen. Durbin:
“In a Senate floor speech Tuesday, Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., said the murder of Chicago Police Officer Ella French — with a weapon bought in Indiana — adds urgency for Congress to increase the punishment of so-called straw purchasers and make it more than a “paperwork” crime.”
It’s a ‘paperwork crime’ because assholes like him have let it be. People all over the country have yelled at these clowns to actually have ATF and the EffingBI ENFORCE THIS LAW, and they haven’t. That includes then-Vice President Gropey being asked about this in Congress, and him dismissing that law as “We don’t have time to waste on that!”
Oh, I wonder if someone will ask him if that includes telling the EffingBI to investigate and bring a case against Hunter Biden, who’s actually confessed to illegally buying a gun and to lying on the 4473?
Dammit, forgot the link:

Odd how they only get serious when it’s “one of their own” but thugs can kill, rob, rape and prey upon the rest of us without worry.
Forget it Jake, it’s Chitown.
