Uptdate - ANOTHER Uptown Gang Fight, Sept 1st, 2pm

UPDATE/CORRECTION, SEPT. 5: Uptown "Gang Riot" Was Actually Minor Shooting Word in the street is that there was YET ANOTHER gang fight in Chicago's troubled Uptown neighborhood, said to have happened at 2:00 in the afternoon at W. Wilson and N. Broadway, a few yards from the CTA train overpass. We get this from a woman who was at the CAPS Beat 2311 meeting on Monday night (Sept. 1). Five hours after the gang disturbance, the 7:00 p.m. CAPS meeting took place at Truman College, less than 300 feet away from the reported rumble. The woman who told Chicago News Bench about the fight said that "a police captain" in the meeting acknowledged the fight, but would not discuss details with the meeting attendees. One has to wonder why not, and also why the superhuman anti-crime fighting efforts of 46th Ward Alderman Helen Shiller and her entire staff of expert crime fighters have not yet put a stop to the seemingly weekly gang battles in Uptown, despite their sworn implementation of Shiller's Secret Safety Strategy (SSSS). Looks like "positive loitering," the latest social networking craze for socially challenged Uptowners, is working about as well as SSSS is.

Another Uptown Gang Fight Video

Posted on August 29 by "cabdodger" on YouTube, the video below is clearly a gang fight in Chicago's Uptown neighborhood. The video is titled "Uptown Gang Fight -August 28, 2009." This is yet another gang fight in Alderwitch Helen Shiller's 46th Ward, just two weeks after, and half a block north of, Joe Gray's now-infamous riot video. At least two of the young men swing long objects (image, right), possibly golf clubs. The irony of these punks acting this way in front of Alternatives and Uptown Ministries, two of Helen Shiller's favored non-profits, is rich indeed. Aren't those kind of organizations supposed to be preventing this kind of activity rather than serving as passive back drops for it? Where were the overfunded Cease Fire miracle workers?
