Adam G,
Good catch that website; even mixes facts you didn't know or want to.
The main thread on Chicago, which is open and has 35k views will have this smaller thread (5.2k views) merged in:Chicago & Policing (new title)

From what I think is an obscure website https://www.zerohedge.com an article 'One-Third Of The 2016 Spike In U.S. Homicides Came From Just 5 Chicago Neighborhoods', which strikes me as rather polemical, here is an example:Link:https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-...-neighborhoodsAll the anti-cop self-righteousness in the world won’t save one victim from gang violence.
The article refers to the original work from a more typical in appearance news story, which is full of statistics:https://www.dailywire.com/news/25092...w-jared-sichel
Yes the recommended local website watching the mayhem is still going:http://heyjackass.com/

Within an article on NYPD's use of "stop & frisk" there is this passage:Link:http://www.nationalreview.com/articl...rvatives-wrongAs of December 27, New York City saw 286 homicides in 2017, down 12 percent from the previous year, itself a near-record low. That is a rate of about 3 per 100,000 population. By contrast, Chicago’s homicide rate for 2017 was about 24 per 100,000. The figure for Baltimore is about 56. There were more murder victims in Baltimore than in New York City in 2017, even though New York has nearly 14 times as many residents.

A different viewpoint, this time with a focus on NYC, although Chicago does appear (maybe the thread needs a new title?). The sub-title being:The author is not being "PC":Public order creates a virtuous circle that enables neighborhoods to flourishLink:https://www.city-journal.org/html/cr...ong-15625.htmlThe fact that should concern us all, and that should be at the forefront of discussions of crime and policing, is that blacks die of homicide at six times the rate of whites and most Hispanics combined.

What is PC is no one will discuss the fact that criminals killing each other is a form of crime control. And a very effective one.
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/l...213-story.htmlA high-ranking Chicago police officer died after he was shot Tuesday afternoon while assisting a tactical team responding to a robbery at the Thompson Center, sources said.
The officer, identified as a commander, was shot a little before 2 p.m., according to chief Chicago police spokesman Anthony Guglielmi. The officer was taken to Northwestern Memorial Hospital and has died, sources said.
Place your bets on near-future events, folks.
