Thanks, the link worked on my Opera browser.
There are so darned many DUH studies that get published, but I do think this takes the cake: Violence begets violence in one of the worst crime areas of Chicago. GEEZ..................
That's about as meaningful as doing an in depth study of why older men marry younger women................
Getting old was not on my list of "things to do" in the Golden Years!
Talking to each other here is good, but taking action is better.
There's an old adage that could have replaced this entire study: "If you lie down with dogs, you're going to get fleas."
Reply to everyone so far....
Did you notice the other "risk qualifier" I didn't quote?
Hang out with people who carry guns... You could be at risk of getting shot!
Does that apply to us here? Oh my!

I live in Ga 25 miles from Chattanooga,Tn, they were having gang problems really bad so they put a gang task together and they move out of the area like roaches. I live in the southern part of the county but the northern part is having lots of problems with the gangs in the schools on the North end. I live in the county seat and my wife has been in the school system for 19 years now.So instead of Tn actually doing any good they just ran them our way. I live in a small town and things have changed so much. I road a bike everywhere when I was a kid because we didn't own a car. Now I wouldn't let my kids walk a block alone. My daughter is 16 who looks 21 I have he carry a knife and have taught her how to use it. When I leave my kids at home alone there are guns left out for them and yes they have had a lot of training on how to use them. My son has his SR 22 with both mags placed in my bedroom loaded with stingers. He is instructed to put the first mag upper center chest do a mag change and if they are still a threat the other 10 goes in the head. I put him through IDPA situations on the clock. If he has a malfuntation he deals with it himself the whole time me yelling BG is coming deal with it. From compressed ready He can double tap to the head in 1 and 1/2 seconds at 10 yards and he is 10 years old. I say all that to say the world we live in is in such a sad state I have to teach my kids to do this. A month ago the US Marshall raided my next door neighbors house. He was not there so he is still wondering around out there somewhere. And the politisions say let the police hand things. Walker county is one of the largest counties in Ga reponse time could be 20 minutes or longer. Seat down and take a watch and just look at it for five minutes and do nothing else but look at the watch even five minutes is a long time to wait on help. And I'm supposed to wait until the Sheriff Dpt gets here to call the coroner to get here so they can take my dead family away. Not me nor mine. If placed in a situation of using deadly force I have already made up my mind what I will do.
The information was pulled from arrest records and homicides in high-crime areas. 4% of the networked people contributed to 41% of the homicide victims in the area.... All this "study" says is that if you are a gang member, or related to one, in this small area of Chicago, you're probably gonna be shot. NO KIDDING??? Criminals and gangsters shoot each other?!?! Man, this study should've been done YEARS ago. Too bad there isn't a way to observe that amazing trend without spending a bunch of money on it...

This year's ACMs were jam-packed with unforgettable moments that people will be talking about for a long time to come. From show-stopping performances to surprise award wins, there was certainly no shortage of standout moments at this year's ceremony.
When you take into the consideration that the ACMs were only three hours long, it's hard to believe that so many incredible moments could happen in such a short amount of time.
In celebration of one of the most exciting ACM Awards we've ever seen, here's our list of the top ten moments from this year's ceremony, in no particular order.
After several years of hosting the ACMs with Luke Bryan, Blake Shelton stepped down from his co-hosting duties this year. Bryan invited his other good friend, Dierks Bentley, to fill Shelton's spot, and was planning on performing his new single "Huntin', Fishin' and Lovin' Every Day" with his new co-host as the show's opening number. But just before Bentley was supposed to go on stage, Shelton stole his microphone and surprised Bryan in front of the entire crowd.
It was great to see these two buddies together again!
Chris Stapleton's fame has exploded over the course of the past few months, but the "Fire Away" singer has been an important fixture in the songwriting community for years. He's written countless hits for many other country artists, and during the ACMs some of those artists stood up to take credit for helping Stapleton achieve his current superstar status.
Jason Aldean, Thomas Rhett, Carrie Underwood, and even Bryan and Bentley tried to take credit for Stapleton's fame in one hilarious moment that eventually got the entire crowd involved.
Proving that all the credit for his success rests within himself, Stapleton surprised everyone, including himself, when his song "Nobody to Blame" was selected as Song of the Year. Stapleton was up against many other hit songs, including Cam's "Burning House" and Little Big Town's Grammy Award-winning smash hit "Girl Crush." Knowing what he was up against, Stapleton was stunned that his song was chosen against all the others, especially Little Big Town's.
Stapleton expressed such feelings in his speech, saying "You've gotta be kidding me! I thought for sure we were gonna girl 'Girl Crushed.'"
The music industry has lost many of its greatest artists since last year's ACMs. Although David Bowie, Glen Frey, Lemmy, and Scott Weiland weren't country artists, their lives and their work crossed genres. One country artist who looked up to these four men as his musical heroes is none other than Eric Church, who took to the stage to deliver a touching tribute in their memory. Church started off performing his song "Record Year," which was then interrupted by a DJ who played a quick medley of songs by Church's four heroes.
Even though the stars Church honored didn't sing country music, its clear from the way the crowd reacted that they too, admired each of the four artists in the tribute.
Prior to the ACMs, Kelsea Ballerini learned she had won the award for New Female Vocalist of the Year. As if that wasn't good enough for the "Dibs" singer, she then had the chance to perform with pop star Nick Jonas during the awards ceremony. Ballerini admitted that she a huge crush on Jonas when she was younger, so she was really looking forward to their performance, which included a mashup of two of her songs, "Peter Pan" and "Love Me Like You Mean It."
Watching Ballerini's duet with Jonas makes it easy to see why she would consider it a dream come true!
By now, we're used to watching Underwood deliver mind-blowing performances, she really knocked it out of the park at this year's ACMs. Underwood chose to sing her latest single "Church Bells," but she shocked the crowd when she stepped back, grabbed a pair of drumsticks, and started pounding away on the drums. We knew that Underwood could play the guitar, and even the harmonica, but we never would have guessed she had some percussion skills as well!
Needless to say, the crowd went wild for Underwood's performance, and she definitely deserved it.
Rhett co-wrote his number one hit, "Die a Happy Man" about his wife Lauren, who he's known almost his entire life. The two of them met when they were still in elementary school, and after years of being "just friends," they ended up falling in love. This year, Rhett was nominated for Single Record of the Year at the ACMs for the love song he wrote about his beautiful wife.
When Rhett was announced as the winner at the ACMs, the look and his face, as well as Lauren's, was absolutely priceless.
After winning the award for Female Vocalist of the Year, Miranda Lambert took to the stage with Keith Urban and ZZ Top's Billy Gibbons for one rockin' performance of ZZ Top's hit song "Tush." Lambert proved in the performance exactly why she was chosen as this year's best female vocalist, and Urban and Gibbons both killed it on their guitars.
Many people are referring to this trio's performance as the best of the night, and it isn't hard to see why!
This year, Dolly Parton's hit television movie Coat of Many Colors was chosen as the recipient of the Tex Ritter Award. The award is presented to a country-music related movie that was released and/or received a lot of coverage in the year prior. Since Coat of Many Colors was a huge success, and was based off of Parton's hit song which tells the story of her childhood, we can't think of a film more deserving of such an honor.
Parton had lots of people to thank in her speech, but she drew special attention to little Alyvia Alyn Lind, the actress who played her in the film, who also happened to be in the audience.
Pop star Katy Perry looks up to Parton as one of her biggest role models. That's why Perry was incredibly honored to present the Tex Ritter Award to Parton, but her part in the ACMs didn't end there. After Parton accepted the award, she joined the stage with Perry to perform a medley of some of her classic hits, including "Jolene," "9 to 5," and of course, "Coat of Many Colors."
It was a fun-filled performance, and one that many will remember for years to come!
Which moment from this year's ACMs was your favorite?

Entrust President and CEO Bill Conner hosted a lunch Tuesday for conference attendees comprised of senior executives within retail banks, telecom operators and government agencies where he discussed the growing need for securing today's open networks. "Today's security is not just about people. Today's identities include kiosks, servers, mobile devices, ATMs and even power meters," said Entrust President and CEO Bill Conner. "True security and trust begins with knowing who or what is on the other end of a transaction and assigning the proper risk level to an identity or a transaction. Username and password, tokens and smartcards all have a place in today's infrastructure; it is all about the right level of security for that transaction that matters." >> Read Now: Transcript of Conner's Speech at Cards Middle East 2011 The Cards Middle East 2011 is a two-day conference and is the largest gathering of retail banks, telecom operators, retailers and government. More than 60 expert speakers present on their secrets for maximizing revenues from card portfolios, capitalizing on new payment infrastructure and implementing new countermeasures to combat fraud. In addition, Entrust territory manager Jeremy Boorer led a 4 p.m. session in the Digital ID World Theatre discussing the development and integration of smartcard technology and digital IDs allowing for physical and logical access convergence in the enterprise. This approach helps reduce complexity and cost while improving security. Entrust enables organizations to layer security — according to access requirements or the risk of a given transaction — across diverse users and applications. Entrust's authentication capabilities include username and password, IP-geolocation, device, questions and answers, out-of-band one-time passcode (delivered via voice, SMS or e-mail), grid and eGrid cards, digital certificates (in software or on smart cards/USB Tokens) and a range of one-time-passcode tokens, including Entrust IdentityGuard Mobile.

GM's Fuel Efficient Model Sales At All-Time High
It wasn't long ago when the best-selling General Motors models greedily guzzled gas, but times have changed due to a large part to rising gas prices.
Now, GM's fuel-effiicient models rule the roads and in March they have reached a milestone. Last month, GM sold more than 100,000 vehicles that achieve 30 mpg or better.
"GM's strategic investments in four-cylinder and turbocharged engines, advanced transmissions and vehicle electrification have been very well timed," said Mark Reuss, president of GM North America. "Three years ago, about 16 percent of the vehicles GM sold achieved at least 30 mpg on the highway. Today, that number is about 40 percent, and we have more new fuel-economy leaders on the way, including the Chevrolet Spark, Cadillac ATS and the Buick Encore."
This is a huge shift and shows where the market is heading. The cars that make up this new sales record include the Chevrolet Sonic, Cruze, Volt, Malibu, Impala, Equinox and even the V6 Camaro.
Buick's Verano, Regal, LaCrosse, and GMC's Terrain round out the field.
In future, GM will be offering more fuel efficient models, like the new Cadillac ATS, which will also offer four-cylinder engines.

TITLE: Alpine Col
GENERAL OVERVIEW: This pass leads between the upper Darwin Bench and Lake 11,910 to the Goethe Lakes and Humphreys Basin.
CLASS/DIFFICULTY: Class 2
LOCATION: SW of Muriel Peak, NE of Mt. Goethe. Bordering Kings Canyon National Park and the Mono Divide area. Sierra National Forest / John Muir Wilderness HST Map
USGS TOPO MAP (7.5'): Mt. Darwin
ROUTE DESCRIPTION: Take the Eastern side of Lake 11,910. Before you are directly under the pass begin angling up past some bits of grass. There are 3 rock outcroppings that form small cliff faces. Between these are two sections filled with some mixed talus. Aim for the one on the right. Once you have passed the major rock outcroppings it's an easy walk to the top.
Drop down the pass slightly and angle left onto smaller talus slopes. Continue to drop down until cliffs are in front of you. From here you will have to either choose to go right or left. The right side has very large talus fields. Off hand I would recommend going left but due to the amount of snow present when I crossed it I cannot comment on the nature of the terrain.
Make sure to take the Western shore of Goethe Lakes!

Re: Alpine Col
I was there late season with little snow. I descended, tried to go left from the cliff band and could not find a good route (talus looked unstable and too steep for me), so traversed the top of the cliff right quite a ways (slightly dropping) and found a use-path through a tight slot that primarly is on steep dirt and scree. When down past the cliffs, turn left again and aim for the inlet of the lake, then traverse the left side to the outlet. I tried both staying near the shore and about 100 feet off the shore and it was six of one, half dozen other. A case for staying off the shore is if there are lots of those nasty gnats or black flies.

Re: Alpine Col
I crossed this pass again this year this time from Goethe Lakes. We went around the Western shore which is a bit further and still involved plenty of talus hopping but not the unstable and horrible nature of the East side. Once we started up the pass although the amount of talus is an issue the over all stability of it is quite good.

Thanks for the description and pics. Makes me feel better about another attempt at that area. At least to go deeper towards the other end of Goethe.

I have been contacted twice by phone. Each time it was from someone who could not be understood due to a heavy foreign accent and loud background noise. Call center. Gave me names of "Inspectors" who would call me tomorrow who could not be found on the internet nor could the caller verify their identity after questioned. I was given the caller's "Government ID#" which also was not verifiable nor did it take the form of US Government ID's. A "Manager" then came on the line. I asked him to verify the credentials of the caller, the inspector and the connection with my State Government who was allegedly supplying the grant. The manager immediately hung up.
Tip for consumers: Make sure you thoroughly understand this website is offering you a grant, allegedly approved by your state government under a published state government grant system but will not give you the information about the state agency or contact numbers so you can verify the "free money. You never have to pay it back." Says who??
Many companies will charge you money to help you apply for US government grants but most people do not realize this website lists many US grants and is the official site for this. Before you go and pay money for someone to find you a grant or "free money" as they like to advertise, check out this site.

So the law treats people as though they AGREED to its restrictions, even though those restrictions did not exist when the plea deal was taken.
I'm sure plenty of people took deals when they really weren't guilty of squat, just because they were told it would cost a fortune to fight it and hey, what's the big deal with having a misdemeanor on your record (the lawyer would've said at the time).
Then Louse-enberg screwed 'em. That law is CLEARLY unconstitutional. Where the hell are the challenges to it?!
People don't know how to keep their mouths shut to stay out of trouble. I understand the need to, and even I still have trouble keeping myself from blabbing on.
geez....she must of been a vegan!
We are getting off topic, but I'll chime in anyway.
I think this stems from all the stupid policies that police depts. have about making an arrest anytime a allegation of DV is made. I am so glad the trend is getting away from this.
"Just blame Sixto"
I reserve the right to make fun, point and laugh etc.
DV isn't solely physical abuse, women also suffer mental abuse. I get the impression that LEOs can sense when someone is a bully and will gladly side against him, even if there aren't bruises this particular time.
I can understand your reaction, but I know for a fact that at least one person was arrested here in KY, for supposedly punching his ex wife, at an event where thirty plus people witnessed the altercation and confirmed that nothing of the sort happened. Domestic violence is inexcusable, but it is way to easy for someone to say, "he hit me" and instantly land another person in jail.
There was an article in the NRA mags a few years back about a mother whose teenage daughter was out of control. The mother threw the car keys at her daughter and told her to get out or something like that. She was charged with DV for throwing the keys. She lost her 2A rights. I'll bet stuff like this happens all the time. What a shame.
When you've got 'em by the balls, their hearts & minds will follow. Semper Fi.
peacefulljeffrey - and many others - have wondered where the challenges to this blatantly unconstitutional law are... The fact is, it has been challenged and is continuing to be challenged. The sad fact, however, is that no judge is willing to overturn it, and then have some domestic abuser kill his spouse with a firearm that he would not legally been able to obtain had they upheld this BS law... A classic case of CYA, and the Right of the People be damned... Here is some more info from the link I provided in my earlier post:If these are not BS justifications (it's falls under the Interstate Commerce Clause because some future gun that the misdemeanant might posess might have to be shipped across state lines?!?) then I don't know what are...The provisions of the Lautenberg Amendment have been challenged on three primary grounds. First, opponents of the law maintain that it violates the Commerce Clause by classifying as a federal offense activity that does not have an effect on interstate commerce as required by the Supreme Court's decision in United States v.
Lopez. It has also been argued that the law violates the Equal Protection Clause by punishing domestic violence misdemeanors more harshly than other misdemeanor offenses, by punishing misdemeanor but not felony offenses, and by excluding law
enforcement officers convicted of misdemeanor domestic violence offenses from the public interest exception of 18 U.S.C. §925(a)(1). Furthermore, the law has been attacked as a violation of the Ex Post Facto Clause on the basis that it prohibits the possession of a firearm by a domestic violence misdemeanant even if the predicate offense occurred prior to its enactment.
Reviewing courts have rejected these challenges to the Lautenberg Amendment, determining that its provisions fall within acceptable constitutional parameters. Regarding the Commerce Clause, courts have held that the law contains an express jurisdictional element requiring a finding that the firearm in question was possessed in or affecting commerce, or was received after having been shipped or transported in interstate or foreign commerce, obviating the concerns at issue in United States v. Lopez. Equal Protection Clause challenges have been rejected upon the determination that Congress rationally concluded that misdemeanor domestic violence offenders
should not possess firearms. Finally, the courts have held that the law does not violate the Ex Post Facto Clause in that it prohibits post-enactment possession and does not criminalize conduct occurring before its enactment.
A man fires a rifle for many years, and he goes to war. And afterward he turns the rifle in at the armory, and he believes he's finished with the rifle. But no matter what else he might do with his hands - love a woman, build a house, change his son's diaper - his hands remember the rifle.
WOA! Yes it is a bad thing to pervert the constitution and manufacture creative ways to take local issues, and hand them to the unaccountable federal tyranny. Lautenberg was passed under a republican congress. Both parties are our enemy. Only a tiny group of items can LEGALLY be "federal crimes." Allowing other things to be CALLED federal crimes by a corrupt congress and corrupt "judges" assists in the destruction of the constitution.Thanks guys. The Lautenberg is the one that I was thinking of.
I understand what they were trying to do with the law, and it isn't such a bad thing.
Of course Lautenberg is as unconstitutional as the day is long, but trying to get the GOVERNMENT'S courts to rule that the GOVERNMENT has overstepped it's authority, is next to impossible, especially when women are involved.
If your friend COULD have been sentenced to more than a year, then he has a problem. Expungement is the next step.
Next outrage:It should be flatly illegal for attorneys (which are officers of the COURT and owe no loyalty to you no matter HOW much you're paying them) to ever suggest this. You can plead guilty without that snake of an attorney.Well, the sandwich case didn't go to a jury. His attorney advised him to plead guilty, or it would cost quite a bit to get him off.
Sickening outrage:I know many MEN who suffered a lot of "mental abuse" from women. The real issue though are these horrible MADE UP phrases that women use, such as "mental abuse, psychological abuse, emotional abuse etc". They're totally made up and are too vague to possibly have any meaning yet women throw them around like rice at a wedding. I know many men who had those labels thrown at them for merely disagreeing with a woman. Disagreeing with her and defending your opinion now constitutes "emotional abuse," "psychological abuse," and "mental abuse" in the minds of many many women. Letting them rewrite the english language is dangerous business.DV isn't solely physical abuse, women also suffer mental abuse.
No. This isn't what I was referring to and you know it.I know many MEN who suffered a lot of "mental abuse" from women. The real issue though are these horrible MADE UP phrases that women use, such as "mental abuse, psychological abuse, emotional abuse etc". They're totally made up and are too vague to possibly have any meaning yet women throw them around like rice at a wedding.

Disagreeing with her and defending your opinion now constitutes "emotional abuse," "psychological abuse," and "mental abuse" in the minds of many many women. Letting them rewrite the english language is dangerous business.
Some people may claim that they are being abused, mentally or physically, and on closer inspection are found to be fabricating a story to implicate someone in an illegal act. That is as old as humankind.
I am referring however to women who genuinely suffer abuse that doesn't show as bruises, but rather as inappropriate control such as imposed social interaction limitations, jealousy, character undermining and other childish bullying.
If you think women are making all this up go talk to my Mother. But then you will probably dismiss her out of hand.
Life is for learning from people.
Federal law only prohibits felons from buying and owning guns. A misdemeanor conviction for violence or drugs would probably prohibit him from getting a license to carry a gun concealed, but it can't stop him from buying a gun.<< Ohio law
The early-bird gets the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.
Yyyyyyea, as well as people with CERTAIN misdemeanors.Federal law only prohibits felons from buying and owning guns.

So what if the wife or SO has a clean record, then marries a guy who can't legally carry? Is she still allowed to have a gun in THEIR home?
Also, if there really ISN'T more to the story, women like this give real DV abuse victims a black eye. I think if she really has put 4people in jail for frivolous reasons, she needs be looked into!
