They aren't stealing food because they're hungry, or stealing to survive or support their family or children.

They are stealing nike jordans because they are materialistic and think it will give them street cred

Such weak beta men obsessing over shoes like females, instead of working to be self sufficient like a man.

Basically this whole operation did nothing except make people want to cooperate even less.

I also find it pretty convenient that this truck just happened to have stereotypical items people in the hood love almost as much as guns. Did not a single person think to themselves "hmmm I wonder what will happen when news of this breaks". They could of filled it with almost anything else and it wouldn't have made such a ridiculous headline for people to talk about and piss off the community. Why would it need to have Nikes in it if all they were doing was baiting people to break into an unmarked closed trailer. Seems legit

The community doesn't cooperate they said... lol
Riiiight, before this, the community loved the police, and always cooperated with shootings and homicides.

Guess they should get rid of other stings as well, wouldn't want to lose the trust of the community even more...

Stereotypical items?

There's a train, freight yard right next to their neighborhood. I guess when they break in and steal, they should be released without charges...to gain the trust of the community...

They could of at least used something other than Nikes that can't be turned into a ridiculous sounding headline and story. Everyone knows broke ass people in the hood love jordans so when they hear they got baited with a truck full of them it makes them more salty than usual. I guess there was some good that came out of the Nike part though because it looks like some rapper is going to help donate thousands of shoes to people in the area.

Any item can become stereotypical with people like you. Could have been flatscreens, and people like you would have gone, "Flatscreen televisions? We all know people in the hood love their Flatscreen televisions."

Is it that hard to read? I already said multiple times why it might matter. I have a hard time believing this would even be a thread or got the attention it did outside of this forum without the Nike aspect. No one would have probably even cared if they baited them with a truck of office chairs or something random. If you are going to just start manufacturing crime to try and bust criminals at least don't do it in some idiotic way that will garner a ton of negative publicity.

Basically they accomplished nothing and managed to get a ton of bad press. Congrats, another step closer to cleaning up the streets of Chicago for sure

Of course that's common knowledge. Figured that's what he was referring to when he implied people like me are racist.

How did Nike's become some sort of racist bait?

Truth is, everyone likes Nike's, males, females, Asians, Latinos, Blacks, Whites, etc.

yeah but if they filled it with text books and job applications nothing would have been stolen, so yes, they manufactured the crime

Real comfortable, wear them at the gym, and when I need to run some errands.

Think they're running shoes.

See now were getting somewhere. So you agree they could have busted them regardless of what was in the boxes and that having Nikes in there was pointless. Glad were in agreement

Isn't the whole point of bait operations to create a crime that can be witnessed to catch criminals?

I guess the next time they do a bait car sting, it better not be a popular vehicle in the hood, we don't want to rustle feathers, or lose the trust of the community...

Why are some things stolen and other things never stolen? It is almost like items have varied value and some things are easily resold.

Just curious after seeing this all over...



Why does every headline include what the truck was filled with as if the thieves knew?


I know Podunks is in this thread pretty much saying what I'm thinking, but LOL. ITS A SEMI PARKED ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. And they just happened to cut into it and wow, fuking jackpot.

The headline includes it because it catches the attention of people. Now everyone in the hood thinks cops just propped up some Nikes to lure unsuspecting kids into stealing them. In one of the articles people were even claiming they put it next to a basketball court lol. Chicago PD and the rail yard played themselves

Also in the vid they showed on the news it was a box cutter and he cut what looked like a zip tie. Its not like he came in with some big ass bolt cutters he probably just whipped out his EDC box cutter.

Looked like the response they received and attention it got would say otherwise but it seems like that's something we clearly disagree on.

Next time they'll do a survey, and you can approve or disapprove what items should be used...
