"A mob of 11 allegedly admitted gang members - most in their teens - attacked two men shortly after 1 a.m. April 25 as they walked northbound in the 600 block of N. Michigan. The victims told police that the suspects asked if the victims were Latin Kings, to which the victims replied "no." The suspects then stated "This is G-D world" and "G-D Love" and surrounded the victims, threw the victims to the ground and struck the victims in the face and body."

If you can get assaulted on the Mile like this, you can get assaulted ANYWHERE in this sh!thole city!
The shame of this story is that the Hate Crime statutes do not apply. However if a group of investment bankers would have jumped and beat these gangbangers they would be facing federal hate crime charges.
Truly is unfair
I wonder why these kids were out on the mile after curfew? If curfew was actually enforced maybe we would not have many of these incidents.
The curfew laws are enforced, as much as they can be anyway. It's pretty hard to enforce them however when the parent could care less about the child being a curfew because the parent isn't that much past the curfew age himself, is a gangster or just doesn't give a hoot. Some parents won't even come into the station to pick the kid up. Then what do you do with the kid?
Everybody thinks they have all the solutions. Only problem is those solutions clash with reality.
Big Daddy - interesting - yep - kids having kids and it just becomes a big circle. Maybe throw the kid in a year long boot camp!!
The shame of this story is that the Hate Crime statutes do not apply. What? What about this incident, as it's reported, has to do with race? Or are you just making a dumb f*cking assumption that the thugs were one race and the victims were another? And even if they were, prove that the thugs were motivated by race in their decision to jump these guys. Guess what? Latin Kings have been known to jump and beat and even shoot other Hispanic people!
However if a group of investment bankers would have jumped and beat these gangbangers they would be facing federal hate crime charges.Yeah, because as we all know, there are no black, hispanic, asian, etc. investment bankers. Only white.
We've got enough problems with race in this neighborhood/city/country without goofs injecting it where it isn't even an issue.
I wonder if pressure can be put on the 1st alleged offender where he is NOT a US Citizen. He may finally wake up begin to respect or perhaps be deported if he has no status. Craig u may want 2 call ICE. Go to www.ice.gov to find a number. Of course, if the address is bad, then go figure. What is the case number 4 this complaint?
It is good to know that the people of Rogers Park are willing to share with others.
