For those who think Chicago Mayor Richard Daley’s efforts to limit guns are a waste of time and a violation of people’s rights, consider the case of Micheal R. Bailey.

At 62, Bailey was a 20-year veteran police officer who was weeks away from retiring.

At about 6 a.m. yesterday, Bailey was coming home from one of his shifts, where he was assigned to guard Mayor’s Daley’s home, when he stopped outside his own South Side home to clean the Buick he had purchased for himself as a retirement present.

Up to three men approached Bailey in what police say was a possible robbery attempt. Bailey announced he was a police officer and then there was an exchange of gunfire. His son grabbed one of his father’s weapons and ran outside after the attack, but it was too late.

“We heard (his daughter) screaming, ‘They shot my daddy, somebody shot my daddy!’ ” neighbor Angelece Cook told the Chicago Tribune.

    Shlt!!! are we sure Mayor Daley didn’t order this himself? I mean, the last thing these cities need are more pensions to pay out to retiring Government workers! I’m saying!!!! Mr_NanaStroker, what you hearing out in dem streets? Sounds like a crazy coincidence to me, and I don’t believe in coincidences!

    Hopefully being a Lawbiding, Taxpaying Citizen in the County of Cook, City of Chicago will bring back a person’s value because as of the past few years the one’s who’s been taken care of are the Criminals, Thug’s & Gangbangers & that’s why they are brazen like they are! They have 1 of the 3 Mommy’s (Grand/Birth/Baby(s)), Aiding, Abetting & Obstructing Justice for those clowns. What we are seeing now is the 1st Generation of Crack Baby’s who are NOW young adults & they are breeding like alley cat’s! They KNOW nothing in life but Entitlement & being Rewarded for bad decision making! The punk A** baby’s daddy’s, who are grand-sons’, sons’, nephews’, brother’s & all other relation’s BELIEVE they are well justified to be out & about being menances of soceity because they have the support! Each time the punk’s get caught doing dirt! The marches, protest, begin! I hope the Chicago Police take the gloves off & start exterminating their A**’s & if mommy want to get in front of her BABY! BLAST HER A** AS WELL! Chicago has always had it’s HOT spots but the folk’s who occupied those spot’s a/k/a HUD/CHA Housing never ventured to far away from where they lived, but the City of Chicago tore down the Projects, gave people easy access to area’s a lot of the time a Working Class Family Could Not Afford to live in, placed folk’s into decent area & GAVE THEM everything a Tax Paying, Lawbiding Citzen could NEVER GET but that was equal to unleashing a plague of disease who walk’s on two legs, with females who are breeding like Alley Cat’s & the females being system slick, having learned how to work/ride the system, complement of Grand-Mommmy on up! The sooner the City of Chicago get away from the Race/Color and started exterminating ALL who breaks the laws, the better life will be for the up & coming decent people! We see young black males basically at war with Senior Black Men which I hope KEEPS on blasting their Punk A**’s!

    It sound like a set-up to me…it might not be im just saying thats how it look to me. You got a cop just got off work leaving the Mayor’s home and its daylight outside(im asuming) and this Officer was still in his work clothes and 3 men came up on him(im asuming NOBODY saw what color they was) had time to say something to the officer to the point where he let them know(im a police officer) and get into a exchange gunfire and nobody see the men nor can make-out what color they are or what they look like? This story is so sad and infront of his kids…makes it a damn shame. I hope they catch them all.(JMO)

    _A_ you hit it right on the nose

    it was some inside shlt going on and the City is crying broke taxin and fee’ing the shlt outta folk…..but not one Alderman or Politician has chosen 2 take a pay cut 2 level things out yet they chose 2 give themselves pay raises and bonuses and shlt

    infinite you right also

    but the level of public folk that has been killed doesn’t balance out just because 3 cops has been killed in Chicago….I am still waiting for them 2 start Daley’s trial for co-signing all that bullshlt Burge was on and who will stand trial for the Lynching of Fred Hampton??

    these people are trying 2 be gangsters but when the real gangsters stand up for themselves all that bullshlt will cease
