Nobody is coming to save you. Certainly not on the “gun free” criminal safety zones known as public transit in Illinois. See, card carrying good guys can’t carry guns for their safety and the safety of those around them in gun free zones in Illinois. Hence the woman pictured above, stabbed repeatedly as she begged for her life. Bystanders took out their phones, instead of intervening to save her life.
AT HIGH NOON in a very public place!
You have to fight as though nobody is coming to save you, because in most places, nobody is coming to save you.
Nobody came to save Jessica Hampton, the woman killed at high noon Thursday on a Chicago Transit Authority train, although plenty of people on the car got their phones out and recorded the attack and took pictures of her dead body afterwards.
Welcome to Chicago.
Isn’t that a place you want to take your family to vacation? Or God forbid, to live?
The suspect, Arthur Jones, is being held without bond. Finally.
He might even spend five or ten years in Illinois prison for this heinous attack. See, prison time in Illinois is like dog years in reverse.
Chicago’s criminal violence problem in general and its homicide problem in particular aren’t caused by a too many guns.
In Florida, one in five adults has a concealed carry license and that state has the lowest firearm violent crime rate in history.
Chicago’s criminal violence problem is caused by too many violent predators roaming the streets.
Chicago’s present day orgy of criminal violence caused by not putting bad people like Arthur Jones in prison where they belong – and once they are there, keeping them incarcerated like they do in Florida.
See, in Florida, if you carry a gun, you get ten extra years on your sentence. There’s no plea bargains, parole, probation or any other touchy-feely slap on the wrist.
Fire that gun and you’re gone a generation – 20 years extra – on top of the sentence for the crime.
Hit someone – kill them or just graze them with that bullet – and you’re gone for 25 to life – on top of the underlying charge.
But in Chicago:
45 prior arrests… and still roaming the streets
Police sources have told us Arthur Jones had not one prior arrest. Not five or ten prior arrests. Arthur Jones had 45 prior arrests, including one from last year for carrying a weapon on a CTA train – in this case a steak knife and he wasn’t enjoying a steak dinner on that train. Guess what? The Cook County State’s Attorney’s office didn’t pursue those charges.
And now this woman, a mother of two who was engaged to be married, is now dead.
The video is at LiveLeak, but I’ll save you the trouble: The picture above is a much higher quality image of the crime scene.
Red Line Stabbing Victim’s Family Found Out Through Gruesome Facebook Video
Chicago, IL (DNA Info) — Jessica Hampton’s family found out she was dead through Facebook.
The 25-year-old from West Englewood was slain on the Red Line near 47th Street Thursday afternoon and within minutes, videos and photos of her lifeless body were viewed hundreds of times on social media.
On Friday morning, Hampton’s family was trying to come to terms with the tragedy on her South Side block.
“For us to go on Facebook and see this,” said her cousin, who asked to remain anonymous. “We go on there and we see our family lying there like that, is wrong, and it’s not cool.”
Early Friday, Facebook had removed the video of Hampton lying in a pool of blood on the train, but the video remained on other websites.
Hampton’s killer was believed to be her boyfriend, and the stabbing was part of an “ongoing domestic dispute,” Deputy Chicago Police Supt. John Escalante said at the scene Thursday.
A man was arrested on the scene, and a weapon was recovered, police said. Relatives said the killer was a bitter ex who was angry that she had moved on.
UPDATE:
More information from another source:
The offender was a Gangster Disciples member (MOB, whatever that means). 43 or 48 arrests (I have a hard time reading the documents sent). 6 convictions, including assault, aggravated assault with a knife, aggravated battery, weapons on CTA, and burglary. In other words, he was a nice guy who should have been in prison.
