The ONLY grocery store near O-Block robbed and now closed indefinitely creating a food desert

[Wild self]

Jewel is around the corner on 61st and Cottage. And they not going anywhere.

But like my grandfather would always say "the good suffers with the bad."

Until black people stop being scared and lay the hand of God on these nikkas, they gonna continue to be a virus that infects the whole community.

Crab azz nikkas ruining everything.

 

[BruhManFromTheFifthFlo]

Them nikkas either need to be sent to jail or put on a T-shirt. This go for all gang members. They are waste of space that are breathing oxygen that somebody else could be using

 

[invalid]

So how you know it was “oblock residents” that robbed it like mfs don’t all different kinds of “hoods” and ppl live blocks apart .. y’all are dumb ass sensationalist and I guarantee @Matt504 cac ass is somewhere in this thread

I don't think anybody in this thread was accusing Parkway residents of doing it. There are good working people that live there too.

The think tank solutions tend to ignore that this elements exists. And because they don't acknowledge this, they don't factor them into proposed criminal justice reform measures. When the measures are enacted, many are inevitably dialed back or amended because of them. Facts support that this has bappened in multiple places the past two years.



Better use and deployment of law enforcement resources, and where it's needed, more police on the beat and on patrol. This is a reality that many have not wanted to accept, but will have to eventually. Especially as votes around the country, from voters and elected officials have pushed back against measures to reduce law enforcement budgets. Again, not my opinion but these votes are facts and on the record.

The last three things you mentioned are deflections.

We have tried your solutions for decades and yet we're still plagued with crime. Studies have shown that the things you refer to as "think tank solutions" not only worked to reduce crime, but to prevent it as well. Starting and immediately stopping them doesn't help. And the reasons they're dialed back aren't because they don't work, but because of the mass panic, scapegoating and disinformation surrounding this issues, that's exploited by police (intentional slowdowns) and politicians and spread uncritically by media. I don't know why you keep referencing Portland or the Chesa Boudin recall when they were not driven by actual facts on the ground. More capable people explained this to you in other threads, yet here you are still spreading it as if it's valid.

And those aren't deflections. We've tried what you're suggesting and it ain't working, so I figured that those are the next steps for the tough-on-crime crowd.

Wow. Shocking that all the shooting victims are still alive.

Time to bring in the National Guard or the Feds. to Philly. That's inevitable at this point.

Philly Police Dept. is obviously overwhelmed by the increase in crime.

Send in soldiers, or state/federal police to handle some of the duties that can free up the local police to address the pressing public safety problem.

Are you a cop?

 

[Thelonious Napz]

Dumbass ruined it for everbody. What about the people without cars?
Now nikkas prolly gotta go to another hood just to get groceries now, putting themselves in even more danger. Good job Plaxico!

Studies show they work, until they don't.....

The exact passing of the buck response I anticipated. Propose alternative way to address crime, it doesn't work as projected. Don't accept that the projections were off, but blame the voters and elected officials in multiple cities and states who dial back or amend them.

Ignoring the hardcore criminal element, doesn't make them go away. Throws your projections off, though.
But hey, don't blame them when you can always scapegoat the voters in all those different places.

I mentioned the inevitable roll back of measures. You know what some members said "You have no idea what you're talking about"
You know where they said it?
In states where the measures were rolled back.

Perhaps to your state. Get your excuses out of the dry cleaners to present them when it happens.

What? They're proven solutions. They work. They only stop working when they're abruptly stopped because of bad faith attacks from people like you. It's not a passing of the buck, either; you're just hideously dishonest when it comes to the success of solutions that don't involve locking people up and throwing them away.

The hardcore criminal element has never been ignored. This is another lie you like to spread on here. Bail reform laws and the like don't apply there. They're still subject to the harshest penalties.

You're the one always making excuses for the police or bad politicians or trying to justify the occupation of cities by the national guard or actual fukking soldiers. Sick of smarmy people like you.

nikka the south is still the blackest part of the region..and what do “they” have to do with black folks robbing stores in their own neighborhoods? Accountability is a disease for some of y’all

 

[HarlemHottie]

We are in last place...save yourself

Has it occurred to you that the very individualism you advocate is how we got here?

Disgusting. We need the OG Black Panthers back to get rid of c00ns that happen to be "real nikkas" and racist CACs alike.

Might as well open a black supermarket and only let people in over the age of 50 in it in the O Block area.

Is New Era (Detroit) active in Chicago? Maybe decent ppl could work on funding and organizing a new branch.

We've had these same "non for profit" groups here in Chicago for years and they're not as successful as you make them out to be. They help make white people rich though.

 

[The G.O.D II]

here's the irony. there used to be a mcdonald's across the street from o-block.

but it has been closed for years. this is it below:

Yo did they close that McDonalds on 95th right off the Dan Ryan?

 

[The G.O.D II]

Save a lot is pure fukking trash anyway. Absolute trash produce/meats and outdated damn near expired products. Most of these neighborhoods should be advocating for more aldis than anything.

 

[CreepyMcCreeperson]

Yeah.. Most people in bad areas just trying to survive/make it.. You know how hard that is when a nikka keep trying to take the little you do have? A segment of black people are getting fed up and it may end up being a civil war. Take you head out the sand. Are you out here on bullshyt?

I don’t know about a civil war, but I agree that nobody is going to mentor these people into acting like decent human beings. And reparations will not instantly stop people from being turned on by crime.

 

[Squirrel from Meteor Man]

You’re telling me King Von & Durk only gave money to the gang and didn’t open up any grocery stores or anything else of value?

This is not only disingenuous, it’s not based in any type of business experience. How many grocery stores does Jay-Z or Lebron own? Or any other wealthy celebrity, if it’s just that easy?

Do you know how difficult it is to find property in Chicago and get it zoned for a grocery store? Let alone get it constructed and create the proper supply chain to keep it stocked.

"or anything of value"...did you purposely disregard that part just to focus on grocery stores?

And, "do you know how difficult...?". Nope I don't; but there are obviously hundreds of other people with money that clearly do it all the time because obviously, Chicago has many other businesses. So, you gonna make some more excuses as to why millionaires can't establish businesses, or na?
