Countdown

3

That how many days are left until the outing of this web site moderator! We can't wait! Maybe whomever is attempting to make us nervous could post a little bit every single day to kind of whet everyone's appetite? Maybe a list of all the units we've served in? Maybe the first initials of all our mothers maiden names? Or our middle intitals?

Again, as we posted months ago, why anyone would want to bring that kind of heat on a fellow copper is a mystery. We provide a free place for people to vent and opine and bitch and moan and exchange info. And sometimes, the inmates get a little out of hand and we have to drag them back. When you get down to it though, no matter how deviant, opinions are still protected speech. Does it really matter who runs it all (Seiser)?

We noticed in some of our photo(shopped) threads (thanks to all the contributions still arriving daily) that people were speculating that we were going to get shut down for various slander/libel issues. We have been reviewing our work and we can't find anything even remotely actionable. The photos are obviously satire (protected speech); names are never mentioned by ourselves unless released by the department to the media and even then, we just link it, we don't air out dirty laundry; even the tagline up top says "Sarcasm and Silliness from a Windy City Cop." Our previous e-mail addresses were trusted friends who merely forwarded us stuff and the new one is merely a convenience.

In the meantime, we remind readers that civilians have and are wandering into the threads. Watch the language and innuendo. We had to delete a few comments that were personally distasteful and didn't contribute to anything. We hate membership lists and want to keep it as simple as possible for everyone to have fun. If you want something deleted, contact us with a legitimate reason and we'll consider it. All names and e-mail is kept in the strictest confidence. We, unlike some, respect anonymity.
