5:30 this morning (in Chicago) my roommate comes running into my room screaming that somebody is in our house.
Story: Their rooms are upstairs, me and my other roommates rooms are downstairs. Apparently we forgot to close one of the windows upstairs and two black guys broke in and walked in the two upstairs rooms.
Roommate #1 just randomly wakes up and opens his eyes to see a black guy standing at the edge of his bed. Roommate screams and the guy books it out of the room and out the back door, stole his iphone.
Roommate #2 was watching a movie on his laptop (at 5:30 in the morning, I don't really know why..), door slowly creeps open and there's a black guy standing there, with a taser in his hand. Says, "Hey homie." and zaps the taser. Calmly walks over to his desk and puts his iphone and macbook pro in a bag, and books it out the back door.
Cops said they've been seeing a lot of this in North side Chicago, as the South side gangs are getting to the point where they are having gang initiations and are telling new members to "hit up $x.xx in electronics and you're in." Both their wallets were sitting right next to their phones and computers, even a nice $400 watch...they just took the iphones and computer.
Cops said just be glad they said to get electronics, and not your lives.
Fucked up.
tl;dr-fuckin black guys robbed us. chicago's really starting to piss me off. our mayor sucks.

I know I'm new here and all but why does the color of their skin matter? Sorry this happened to you and your friends. I'm glad everyone is ok.

I think the cops knew your roommates were looking for an excuse to buy all the new iProducts because the old ones are trash after one year.

Just be glad they didn't take your lives? What a douchey thing for a cop to say.

Yeah right? When he said that I kind of did a double take to make sure they weren't Super Trooper cops and were just fucking with us the whole time...because this sort of thing in Chicago these days is on the very bottom of the priority list.Rotinaj;1272538 wrote:Just be glad they didn't take your lives?

True story...4 or 5 months ago our roommate at our old apartment thought someone was breaking in our house (my friend staying with us didn't have keys and was trying to pick the lock), so he got really nervous and called 911 4 times. They never showed up lol
If ya aint gettin murdered or raped, they aint comin

dumb criminals should have waited a few weeks to get the new iphone from your roommates.

Number of murders in Chicago this year is astronomical. I'm glad you are safe as well.

Gun on the nightstand is an awful idea with kids in the house. More poor parenting. Lol

If you would have had Android phones, you would have avoided all this.
Also. what do think your mayor should do?

Your only option is to rig your house with claymores. Or maybe rig a remote controlled plastic explosive to your phones.
