This is Chicago - a little cold can't keep a bad man down.

Friday/early this morning was worse than I thought:

"Friday night and early today, two people were shot to death and a third fatally stabbed, according to police."

quite an action packed article. sounds like the violent people had pent up energy and when the storm related activity finally abated, they had some catching up to do..... jeez, it takes a blizzard like that to keep things quiet for a couple days, then the nuts make up for lost time

No surprise here:

"Murder, rape and car theft were all up for the first two months of 2011 compared to the same period last year, Chicago Police said Friday.Car theft, which skyrocketed 23 percent last year, continued to climb 20 percent in January and February compared to those months in 2010.
Murder was up 18 percent and rape up 4 percent over the same period."

Hmmm. And we more buried in snow and cold this year than last. I'm sure there's nooooo way any of last years numbers were manipulated. In the words of Ralph Wiggum, "that's ummpossible". But the lie continues with claiming 26 months in a row of crime dropping. Yeah, ok. This "crime drop" take into effect 200,000 less people yet?
