Pro Police Feature

We're not sure if anyone still does this locally, but there used to be a feature on some of the networks - an "Editorial Reply" type event that usually ran at odd times to present a response to some position that a TV news show took or perhaps a politician had espoused. We can't recall seeing one locally for at least a decade or more, but then, we haven't watched local news that often to say whether or not it even exists anymore.

But it does in Louisville. This is one of the BEST ever editorial replies we've seen. Hopefully it plays in whatever web browser you have on your computer. Give it a shot. It's from a Fox affiliate, so Lefty and Shady might not want to view it, but it is so PRO-police, we had to post a link. We hope they keep it up for a few days.

Haven't watched the link yet- but the reason that kind of spot on the news went the way of the dodo is that the FCC shitcanned that old "EQUAL TIME" opposing side rebuttal time broadcaster requirement...

(ironically enough allowing the pre-cambian slime-like conditions for a creature such as FOX NEWS to microscopically sub-divide into the 800 lb. Silverback of Spin it is today!)

(b.t.w. the new King Kong is an incredible, almost too intense flick... don't miss it on the big screen- very primal and sad too... grabs ya and throws ya around for three hours!)

I dont care what anybody says. Chicago minority blacks are a parasite.

Wherever they are placed they spread their disease. Look at Cumberland and Higgins. Its a toilet because of the Cabrini Green scum that has been placed there.

They have destroyed every building they have been placed in at Cumberland Courts. Its only a matter of time before we end up like Detroit.

We as city workers have to pay up to 10 grand a year to send our kids to a high school that isnt ghetto black plagued as Taft is.

But as long as the politicians keep kissing their black asses for the vote, the blacks will keep destroying this city.

It will only get worse. A 10-1 in 016 at Belmont and Harlem where a black ghetto family now lives in a section 8 building was shooting a gun and fought Police. And nobody was locked up. Thanks 1600 for making us look like a bunch of pussies. I feel sorry for the new guys and gals on this department.

If a person that wants there kids to grow up in a clean, honest nieghborhood without ghetto influence, then a MORON I am.

I pay high taxes to live where filthy and discusting indesirable people hopefully will not be.

However, section 8 provides free living in that area where people strive to live a good clean life.

Its not fair. I am all for helping people that want to be helped. But spoon feeding a bunch a lazy no good drug selling minorities upsets me.

Give them all a link card for Home Depot and Lowes, Menards and let them rebuild their own nieghborhoods. You know the ones they have already destroyed. This will hopefully teach them dignity and integrity and give them a feeling of self accomplishment. I doubt it but I am sick of them living in my area for free.

You want to live by me? Then be able to afford it and keep your home as beautifull as I keep mine. SIMPLE!

First of all, learn how to spell before you decide to go an a tirade and completely embarass yourself.

Second I'm the guy who has posted here many times before who stated that I LIVE IN CATHERINE COURTS! I've worked all over the City for the last 18 years and I think I could spot a drug deal if I saw one. Know what? I HAVEN'T SEEN ANY AT THE WHITE HEN!!! Yes, there have been a lot of blacks that have moved into those buildings in the last few years, but honestly, the young Polish kids cause a lot more problems in and around those buildings. Get your facts straight.

I'm about as conservative as one could be, so don;t bother throwing that "you're a liberal" bullshit at me. I'm not a liberal, I'm just intelligent and have learned to see past my own prejudices and fears. Hopefully you will too one day before you stroke out from all that misplaced anger.

ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH Saturday, Dec. 31 2005

St. Louis police officers often say they feel as if people are looking over their shoulders.That feeling isn't likely to let up this year.The local chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union, a frequent critic of the city police, says it plans to arm residents of the city's north side with video cameras to record officers' dealings with the public.

The activist group says the department often mistreats and unfairly targets blacks and said it hopes the presence of cameras will act as a deterrent to police abuse and result in smoother dealings between residents and police.

The group said the cameras will start rolling in the summer, after a series of workshops near Fairground Park where blacks can learn about how to protect their rights during dealings with police. The program is called the Racial Justice Initiative.

ACLU leaders notified Police Chief Joe Mokwa of its plans in meetings during the fall. Neither the ACLU nor the police knew of any other previous effort nationally to put officers under private surveillance.
The department has responded with a shrug. While some commanders are leery of having their officers taped, Mokwa said, "It's legal and there is nothing wrong with it."

Sgt. Kevin Ahlbrand, president of the St. Louis Police Officers Association, said: "We don't expect any negative reports to come out of videotaping. Our members are under the assumption that in today's society, they should assume that any time they're in public, they may be being videotaped."
Redditt Hudson, who heads the ACLU's racial justice program, said, "It's not like we needed their clearance."
Mokwa said his officers are used to hearing criticism. On Dec. 22, the chief said, he rushed to Barnes-Jewish Hospital to visit a rookie officer who had been just been shot in the neck.Mokwa said the first words of the officer, Matthew Greco, were, "I didn't do anything wrong."But Brenda Jones, the ACLU chapter's executive director, said some criticism of police is warranted."People are being stopped by the police for no particular reason," she said. "A number who have run-ins have attempted to file complaints but haven't been able to get to internal affairs."The group wants to lessen the "tension and potential for violence that has occurred with police patrolling some of the poor neighborhoods in the city," she said.Mokwa said he hopes the amateur cameramen don't interfere with officers or bait them with bogus calls. He said he disagrees with the premise of the action - he feels most people are happy with his officers' service.The ACLU only hears from the small percentage of people who feel they have been wronged by police, he said.He said he thinks most people want police officers to be aggressive in dealing with troublemakers in their neighborhoods.Mokwa said he hopes the tapes depict officers acting professionally. If the videos expose problems, he said, "we'd want to know about those anyway."

Someone should write a search warrant for that house of donkeys. I assume at least one copper in that district knows how to write a warrant. After the arrests are made, report the violators to sect.8. When then next family of animals moves in do the same thing. Then give the house to nuisance abatement and have it taken from the asshole who keeps placing these dangerous animals among civilization.

Don't comment on something you know nothing about. The fiasco at harlem/Belmont (3240 Harlem) happened in a new condo comlex (about 12 units) none of them are "section 8" as you say. If "they" can afford to live there then so be it. Don't blame the officers on the scene for "not locking anyone up" when there was a (inept) commander as well as Tact Lt and several Sgts on the scene. Anyone who has been involved in a mass arrest situation knows that you wait for the word from whoever is in charge . Once the commander makes the decision (which he obviously couldn't) to lock people up the feeding frenzy starts and everyone walking gets locked up. Place blame for that fuck up on the commander who failed to take control of the situation and give the order to lock everyone up. Because of him every weekend in the summer is going to be a free-for-all over there. They know the "police" (commander) backed down after they started yelling so now they have a blank check to do it whenever they want. Thank you Commander

Interesting thing about the upcoming lieutenants exam. . .

Historically, the city has gone to at least number 150 on the Lieutenants list, even with "merit" promotions. However, in this case, the financially strapped city has decided to spend $3M on a new test after only reaching number 100 on the current list.

Whats the justification for this you ask? Well, amazingly, both Phil Kline and Wayne Wiberg's sons became eligible to be promoted as of December 05, 2005. Dumb luck? I think not!

Moreover, several other heavyweight sergeants belonging to Kline's inner circle have also recently become eligible (Pallohusky, Maher, etc...). Not that these guys aren't good people, but its bullshit that people who studied hard on the previous exam will now be cast aside so the chosen few can be put in place for promotion before Kline leaves the Department.

So heres my prediction for 2006. . . I'm going to bet the following sergeants are ALL promoted to lieutenant in the first class off the new list:

Kline
Wiberg
Maher
Pallohusky

In addition to the above, the promotional list will amazingly contain numerous sergeants from both the Detective Division and Narcotics who all happen to be associated with Kline.

Happy 2006! If you're one of the chosen few.

You mentioned that Kline, Wiberg, Maher, Pallohusky are good Sergeants. Honestly, how many Sergeants are bad that work in specialized units? They hold slips, cut you loose early, etc. A lot of Sergeants do that. And do you think Deb Kirby, ADS of IAD, appointed by Kline, investigates these Sergeants' teams. No. So I do not think its impressive that these Sergeants are good, I'm more impressed with the Sergeants in the districts who take chances with us -- when they give us a break, or help us out, they really put themselves out on the line. I realize everyone is trying to better themselves, but stopping blowing everyone -- Kline (Sergeant) is a freaking moron. With that said, I do not fault the guy or his dad, I would expect the same from my dad, but he's dumb.

It was stated above that the Sergeants listed were not merit - no kidding. How in the world would that look, if they were merit? They studied, yeah, but its easier to study when you know the questions and answers. Certain Exempts write/review/approve the exams. Remember the last two Sergeants to score 1 and 2 on the last Lts. exam -- came from the same unit and the Exempt that reviewed and approved the exam. Kline and Wiberg are not gifted, nor average when it comes to smarts. I have less of problem with them making it, b/c everyone would/should do the same for their own kids, but please stop puffing
