Last year billionaire Ken Griffin relocated his businesses to Miami, Florida, after stating that “Chicago is like Afghanistan, on a good day, and that’s a problem,” noting that he witnessed “25 bullet shots in the glass window of the retail space” in the building he resided in.
If people aren’t safe here, they’re not going to live here. I’ve had multiple colleagues mugged at gunpoint. I’ve had a colleague stabbed on the way to work. Countless issues of burglary. I mean, that’s a really difficult backdrop with which to draw talent to your city from.
Griffin told the Wall Street Journal in April
Flying under the radar, The WinePress reported a little over two weeks ago Chicago quietly passed a new law that restricts police from pursuing a suspected criminal, except under limited circumstances. If an officer does chase a criminal then that officer will have to file additional paperwork, along with two levels of investigation from the station’s higherups.
This essentially gives criminals immunity from arrest, giving them the greenlight to flee the scene of a potential crime if police even so much as simply walk up to them for inquiry.
It’s important that we make sure that violent dangerous people are dealt with, and sometimes that means you gotta pursue them, but I also want the officers to come home at night.
Mayor Lori Lightfoot told the media
But now the city is looking to implement AI as their savior to predict and track crime before it happens.
Scientists from the University of Chicago have developed an algorithm that they claim can predict crimes up to one week in advance with roughly a 90% accuracy rate.
Phys.org writes, ‘The tool was tested and validated using historical data from the City of Chicago around two broad categories of reported events: violent crimes (homicides, assaults, and batteries) and property crimes (burglaries, thefts, and motor vehicle thefts). These data were used because they were most likely to be reported to police in urban areas where there is historical distrust and lack of cooperation with law enforcement. Such crimes are also less prone to enforcement bias, as is the case with drug crimes, traffic stops, and other misdemeanor infractions.
‘Previous efforts at crime prediction often use an epidemic or seismic approach, where crime is depicted as emerging in “hotspots” that spread to surrounding areas. These tools miss out on the complex social environment of cities, however, and don’t consider the relationship between crime and the effects of police enforcement,’ Phys.org.
Moreover, the AI is designed to isolate crime ‘by analyzing time and spacial coordinates of discrete events and detecting patterns to predict future events. It worked just as well with data from seven other US cities; Atlanta, Austin, Detroit, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Portland, and San Francisco,’ ZeroHedge adds.
We demonstrate the importance of discovering city-specific patterns for the prediction of reported crime, which generates a fresh view on neighborhoods in the city, allows us to ask novel questions, and lets us evaluate police action in new ways

AUTHOR COMMENTARY
Scornful men bring a city into a snare: but wise men turn away wrath.
Proverbs 29:8
Translation: we’re gonna let the actual criminals cause the city to turn into full-blown anarchy and gangland, while the actual innocents will be the ones getting locked-up for not being up-to-date on their vaccines, their social credit score is too low, they carry a King James Bible with them, etc. All of this sounds “far-out” and “conspiratorial” to the naysaying masses, but I think anyone with a modicum amount of foresight can see where this is all heading – to a major city near you, soon.

[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

I wonder how long, in months, before this is implemented throughout the States and then, all over Canada?

Didn’t the original Inquisition make the same claims about reading minds of ‘heretics’? ‘For their own eternal good’, and of course, we can’t let all that temporal capital of theirs just go to waste.

No more innocent until proven guilty, but guilty as labeled by ‘gods’ claiming to read the future. SICK.

Was told about a new weather lady on the Columbia, SC news-station. (Mom, what are you doing still watching that programming?) How she came from ‘cago according to a neighbor, & was explaining that it would take awhile for her to get up to speed with the lingo & proper pronounciations, and even after 20+years, the southern colloquialisms slip by her & it took a moment to connect ‘Chi-cago’.

But she’s a real positive, happy gal & she’ll learn (after all she’s ‘educated’….Mom, she’s a script-reader who says only what she’s allowed: prostituted!). Now, let’s just talk about something else… we all have to make a living, & it’s so good the kids are planning to go to college & have ‘direction’… We can’t control what those people do. Remember the ‘Serenity Prayer’? 🙁 So much better to have the positive ‘Shack’ kind of ‘Christianity’, than whatever that is you have. Did you hear what the kids just bought with their two-income ‘credit’? We have so much fun when we get together, & I know it will all work out well in the end… Talk to you later, Honey….you have a good week now: do something fun and not so anti-social & abrasive.

It’s like watching people die all loopey & doped up, without a hope. I have to let it go, giving it to the Lord over and over….or else I’ll just start crying and never stop. Toughen up, Christian soldier.
