Wrigleyville Man's Throat Slashed in Random Attack Michael Schmidt met with police sketch artist to draw up composite sketch of attacker Source: http://www.nbcchicago.com/news/loca...eyville-Attacker-159886705.html#ixzz1yXlFJXY3 Michael Schmidt says he has no idea why a man he passed while walking his dog Sunday night turned around and attacked him. "He came up behind, put his left arm over my chest, took his right arm, and slashed my throat from left to right," Schmidt explained. The attack happened at about 11 p.m. Sunday in the 1200 block of West Byron Street. As Schmidt gripped his throat, he said his attacker just stood there for several seconds, watching his victim bleed profusely. "He just had this sneer on his face. I think he was amazed that I didn't drop to the ground," Schmidt said. The Wrigleyville man sought help from a man at a bus stop at North Clark and West Byron streets. As they were calling 911, Schmidt said his attacker re-appeared. The man was standing in the middle of the street, looking at them with his knife in his hand. He then walked away. Paramedics took Schmidt to a nearby hospital where the four-inch gash on his neck was treated with 40 stitches. Schmidt later met with a police sketch artist who drew up a composite. He described his attacker as a black man about 30 years old who stood about 6 feet, 1 inch or 6 feet, 2 inches tall. The man was wearing a white T-shirt with black stripes and black shorts. The incident, Schmidt said, has strengthened his views in opposition of Illinois' concealed carry laws. "And now it's justified for us to be carrying weapons," Schmidt said. "If they are, so should we." Police urge area residents to alert neighbors about the crime and not to walk alone if possible. They encourage people to stay in well-lit areas and call 911 if they see any suspicious activity. Anyone with information about the weekend incident or the man in the sketch is asked to call police at 312-744-8261.

What if the black slasher tried a second time? Who will be his next victim? _
Now, I am not trying to start anything of course, but this composite sketch looks a bit like Obama, and we know hes from Chicago, alledgedly. I am starting to think Trayvon could have a secret brother...
You may be on to something. At any rate, a CCW pistol makes sense in Chicago with dirtbags like that running around. _
Never had to use either of my CC weapons thank God... but more importantly, just having them allow me to be more relaxed and not let the criminal scum win in the battle for the streets which we all should be able to walk freely and without fear. I know that I never walk into a gun fight with a ball point pen or at best my trusty penknife.
This one hit pretty close to home for me. I am not far from Wrigleyville. Luckily, if I am out walking the dog at 11 o'clock at night, a very affectionate, but very territorial 85 pound german shepherd is at my side. I had one guy start to approach me from an alley one night, sketchy looking, I believe to ask for money, and one low rumbling growl from my dog was all it took to send him the other direction. A gun may as well be in order. I am tired of this non-sense law that requires us to be sitting ducks.
How many more victims will it take, liberals, before you admit something is going on? Actually, I know you know something is going on. I'd be surprised if you didn't cheer these attacks on.
LOL!!! Bow Boy? Putin scolded him. [video=youtube;CF5uq7MaeEA]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CF5uq7MaeEA[/video] _
Yep, basically if the thought a black could hurt you ever runs through your mind at any time, you deserve to die.
He would look even more familar if you were to stick a 'Cigar' in his mouth; afterall, he does come from Chicago where all of our gangsterism originates from, i.e. obama etc.
That man clearly had a mental illness there have been budget cuts for treatments for these people who are usually oppressed in poverty. Guns won't solve this but more general welfare spending for these communities.
