You could be a tweetective.

Sitting here, bottle of whiskey in one hand, .32 in the other, I contemplate this city and the scum that inhabit it. #DarkAndGritty

I suggest flashtweeting this.

EDIT: Just tweeted this from my phone.

Sorry to burst your bubble, guys, but this thing looks like a bunch of bored reporters yelling about 'them technologies'. Garry McCarthy basically told some reporters to either report accurately or shut up.

From the Sun-Times:

The new superintendent cautioned reporters not to lump all of the incidents into the same category. Some are shoplifting. Others are robberies. And on Tuesday night, there was an incident that he called completely unrelated.

One group of young men solicited cigarettes from another group of young men. When one man took out his wallet to pay, a member of the other group snatched the wallet and ran.

“These three men chased ten men to get the wallet back and eventually caught up to the ten men and lost the fight. That in no way shape or form represents anything that we’ve been talking about,” he said.

I honestly can't see this being a major problem in a city that has a homicide rate like Chicago's.

You know, in a 10 v 3 you have the advantage already, so there's no need to escalate force first. [/clausewitz]
