The ‘Ferguson effect’ is destroying Chicago

Cops should stop policing black neighborhoods period. Let them kill each other. Good riddance.

The “no-snitch” ethic of refusing to cooperate with the cops is the biggest impediment to solving crime, according to Chicago commanders. But the Black Lives Matter narrative about endemically racist cops has made the street dynamic much worse. A detective says: “From patrol to investigation, it’s almost an undoable job now. If I get out of my car, the guys get hostile right away and several people are taping [with cellphones].”

Bystanders and suspects try to tamper with crime scenes and aggressively interfere with investigations. Additional officers may be needed during an arrest to keep angry onlookers away. “It’s very dangerous out there now,” a detective tells me.

Taping is a good thing though I would think, no?

I mean, cops are allowed to use their guns, and if they use them lawfully they move on. But if they break the law then they should be brought to justice.

As far as Chicago, it's been a murder capital for a lot longer than BLM.

Did you read the article?

Through the end of May, shooting incidents in Chicago were up 53 percent over the same period in 2015, which already had seen a significant increase over 2014. Compared with the first five months of 2014, shooting incidents in 2016 were up 86 percent. Shootings in May citywide averaged nearly 13 a day, a worrisome portent for summer.

Not that I care really. As long as these increases are black on black crime that is fine with me. White cops should just avoid black areas and those can be patrolled by black cops.

I do hope some incurable disease hits these rowdy blacks so their numbers can come down by a few 100 million. The world will be better off!

No but I will.

Regardless, is this on pace with the 90's murder count?

They had a good decade of less murdering, but this is no virgin territory by any means.

Black people not cooperating with police investigations started WAY before Feurguson.

I can remember NYC before Guiliani. You couldn't walk down the street without being confronted by an agressive panhandler. Every car on the street had its window broken and car stereo stolen. Under Comrade DeBlasio, it's getting that way, again. Bums everywhere. The cops don't give a shit, and I don't blame them.

I have no reason to go to the 'hood, but I'd bet the cop mentality there is to do the bare minimum so that you can't be called out for not doing your job.

And when a cop shoots a violent thug with an arrest record a mile long...AA's turn the thug into Mother Theresa....Black culture is a disease..
