As you can see by this already torn, official CAPS beat 2431 flier, a flier that has already fallen off a building and is now littering the ground, tonight at 7pm, Beat 2431 is holding a CAPS meeting at 1530 West Morse Avenue. That's right, a CAPS meeting.
Ever wonder why the same 20 or 30 people show up to CAPS beat 2431 meetings every month? I did. I went to my buddy Kevin O'Neil to find out.
Did you know, "500 fliers" are printed and distributed by Sharon according to Kevin O'Neil, the CAPS beat 2431 facilitator. "500 fliers". Wow that's a lot for such a small beat. Thank you very much Sharon and Kevin for doing this. But still, "500 fliers" and the same 20 to 30 people showing up.
Something must be wrong with this method of communication Kevin O'Neil uses if that's all that is showing up? The same old 20 to 30 people. It is almost like he doesn't want people to show up? So, I made 100 more fliers and passed them out for the meeting tonight. Let's see if that can add a few new faces to the crowd?
Kevin O'Neil said of my fliering, "It's great to know that none of your fliers will ever find their way to the street or sidewalks! You work magic with that tape, don't you buddy!"
No Kevin, I do miracles. Magic is for witches and warlocks.
Plus, if by chance, one of my "Broken Heart" of Rogers Park fliers did get tossed to the ground, you caught this on film, you logged it on your personal tattle tale website? That would be admitting you actually follow this content of this site. You don't want anyone to know that. Do you Kevin?

If I can get off of work in time tonight, I plan on attending my first meeting tonight.
I was looking at the citizens icam this morning, at the latest data for our beat. It says that there were no crimes from August 30th-Spet 12th. What about the accident in front of the senior home, or my comment from Sept 8th? http://morsehellhole.blogspot.com/2005/09/gangs-drugs-and-gooners-on-morse.html
Yes, please attend, and please do us all a favor: please ask why Citizen ICAM does not jive with your own experience, and please report back here. Thanks!
There are a number of people that flyer the neighborhood every month- myself included. Kevin & Sharon don't do all the flyering. Just FYI.
There is so much apathy, which is why I think people don't show up. Or they are busy (we all are).
I like Michael Harrington's comment. I said it before, we have to work with the police and people in power (even if they aren't who we want to be there) and we will accomplish more that way than by sinking to base name-calling.
I have to admit I find the roasting of certain people that Craig does very humorous but it is a double-edged sword that can be used to dismiss him as well.
