Another Word on Hampton Avenue

If Aldercreature Madeline Haithcock is so set on honoring people for the good work they do (and ignoring everything else about them), we've got a nomination for her. How about this little organization we located? Their founding charter begins as follows:
  • First: To protect the weak, the innocent, and the defenseless from the indignities, wrongs and outrages of the lawless, the violent and the brutal; to relieve the injured and oppressed; to succor the suffering and unfortunate, and especially the widows and orphans of the [...] soldiers.
  • Second: To protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.
  • Third: To aid and assist in the execution of all constitutional laws, and to protect the people from unlawful seizure, and from trial except by their peers in conformity with the laws of the land.
Sounds pretty straight forward, doesn't it? Who can be against protecting the weak, innocent and defenseless? Protect and defend the Constitution? Sounds like a typical loyalty oath, doesn't it? We all took a similar pledge when we became police officers.

Trouble is, this charter is the opening Prescript of the Klan. So under aldercreature Haithcock's "rules" for nomination, we ought to have a "KKK Way" or a "Nathan Bedford Forrest Avenue" or any other dozens of permutations of some truly heinous persons and organizations (i.e. nazi's, mafia, etc.) because they "did some good works."

Now we realize that tossing this up on the blog is going to light up the comments section. We're sure we're going to be deleting a bunch of crap over the next few hours. And if it gets too hairy, we'll shut down the thread. We'll just close out with our regular admonition that the public reads this board, bosses read this board, reporters read this board, and we'll bet someone can direct even aldercreatures to read this board. We can't prove ANYONE on here is a Chicago cop (aside from ourselves) so take everything you see here with the appropriate grains of salt.

why don't we (po po) start picketing that b*tches ward office. You know for a fact if it was the other way around the good black folks would be all over this and picketing day and night in front of white/hispanic alderman's offices until something was done, or at least till that little midget mayor was forced to come out and say something on the matter. This race double standard is getting out of hand. Everyone know's that this is such a ridiculous idea, to nominate a street after a piece of sh*t gang banger but b/c of lack of balls and fear of looking bad politically people don't speak up. Why the F*ck hasn't fat phil been all over the news with this issue, just as the animals were with the meeks traffic stop. Or how bout other alderman/women coming forward and sticking up for what's right, and what they believe is right. I'm so sick of p/c, we need someone with some balls. Hey fat phil, put down the super beef and stand up for your troops!

I agree with previous post. Lets start picketing that cockroach's office. I also think that scc should come up with a list of canidates that REALLY support the police. Not just the ones that say they will, but when issues like this come up hide and don't take a stand. We need them to be vocal and support us. WE ARE NOT WRONG WITH THIS ISSUE. There's no way in hell that shitbag should get a street named after him. Let's not lay down on this. Constant pressure. and where are all these candidates that FOP gives us a list of to support and vote for during election years. I haven't heard one single one of them stand up for us. Let's get a list going of real police supporters, not just political lakees that grease the palms/asses of the FOP.

Here is something for everyone to read on this board.

I'm absolutely sick of our city and this race card excuse. Because this is what it's all about. In addition, the lack of LEADERSHIP in Chicago. Nobody wants to take a stand here. Because when the heat is on, they go running like cockroaches, instead of standing for what they believe in.

About two weeks ago, I emailed City Hall asking about Midway Airport. The response I get is an article in the newspaper about the Mayor supposedly considering privatizing it. You see, he gets rid of the spotlight on him and transfers the problem over to someone else. Same deal about the naming of the street sign. The papers reported that Mayor Daley evaded that one too, when his officers were killed in the line of duty because of the Black Panthers. Isn't the Mayor the same one on the CPD Memorial website stating how much this memorial and our officers mean to him?

In addition, I emailed my Alderman in Ward 13, Frank Olivio. No response from him.

I actually feel for each and one of you after I worked a temp. job with the city.

One of the people who was with my boss in training could not even navigate on the computer when my boss was out of the room. I had to help her.

Then one of the auditors who vocally slammed people he didn't like, also "lost" tax returns from businesses that had a particular persons initials on it. When I started noticing this, I went to the second person in charge, because my boss was not around. I was actually told that the same thing happened to them.

The worst part is hearing from business owners who get treated like CRAP from city workers in various departments. Blatant rudeness, people slamming the phone on them, not to mention the complete inefficiency of the city.

Instead of having meetings about renaming streets to honor people who want to off cops, how about the city spending time on reorganizing the city departments, hiring/training people that actually are professionals and will represent the city, and spending time actually improving their ward(s).

The whole moral of this story is the fact that people need to lead here and put their foot down instead of running for cover when a "touchy" subject is brought up.

Last, the very people in positions of leadership need to recognize those who postively benefited our community.

Not by recognizing the ones who
used violence and advocated the killing of the very people who swear to lay down their lives for us....

I got an idea!!! How bout a city wide work shortage if they approve that street designation. I'm so dead serious on this. I have a whole watch in a district right now that is in total support of this, and will go into effect if that street name passes. Let's get this going city wide. We will bring this broke ass city to its knees. Think about all the revenue the city will lose. No more parkers... hey, i didn't see it. No more movers.. hey, i used desgretion. no more tows, tvb, impounds. F this city that doesn't care about us. If they pass that, we should all take that as a slap right in the face. I for one, am not going to take it anymore. I promise you that i will not do one more proactive police activity. I will answer my calls and thats all.

"...I don't want to cause dissension among our police officers. If that's going to cause dissension with all of the negative things the Black Panthers did, then I won't put up the sign." - Ald. Madeline Haithcock

"...tell me when did Fred Hampton do anything to the police but run his mouth." - Ald. Haithcock

AN OPEN MESSAGE AND REPLY TO ALD. HAITHCOCK'S ABOVE QUOTES

(1)To say the least, your proposal has indeed "caus(d) dissension"

(2) Your statement implies that the Black Panther Party, led in Illinois by the late Fred Hampton "run(ning) his mouth" with his incessant calls to "Off the Pigs!" was mere rhetoric or "trash talking".

Considering that on November 13, 1969, a Black Panther named Spurgeon "Jake" Winters, age 19, did in fact murder CPD Officers John Gilhooly and Frank Rappaport near 5800 S. Calumet Avenue.
Furthermore, in the aftermath, the BPP named two "clinics" after the deceased cop-killer Winters.

Certainly, Ald. Haithcock will now have the courage to concede that her proposal was ill-advised and would polarize the citizenry of the City of Chicago by memorializing Mr. Hampton who openly advocated and condoned the wanton murder of police officers. God help us if Ald. Haithcock seeks to portray Mr. Hampton as a role model to youngsters.

In the event Ald. Haithcock does not read this, perhaps the local media could convey this message to Ald. Haithcock for her unequivocal response. To do otherwise is unconscionable and would only exacerbate an already volatile situation.

That has to be the sickest, meanest and most ignorant comment that I have ever seen. A 1 year old child was accidentally killed while enroute to hospital. If you have anything other than sympathy or empathy to express then you should get yourself evaluated and make a police report for the loss of your humanity. I'm sure your mother would be very proud of you now!!

Back on the original thread people...Ald. Hatecops and her cronies only care about their pocketbooks...The best way to hurt them is if they do vote for this abomination of a street naming is vote them out.

We as a unified group voted out a judge several years ago. I propose that if it happens, we organize as a group and vote out each and every one of these worthless pieces of sh*t. I don't care if the one we vote in is worse than this one. The one we vote in will know that we were the reason they were elected. We as a group are a powerful voting block in this city. We live or have relatives and friends that live in all 50 wards. A "vote for anyone but haithcock" campaign would get the message across loud and clear. Don't F*ck with us!

To 3/05/2006 10:49:10, I also read the article about the little midget at City Hall wanting to privatize Midaway Airport and he is not doing it to deflect attention from the street naming fiasco. He is doing it because fucking daley is anti-union,city worker, and pro awarding contracts to get a kick back.Riddle me this Batman,what happens if Midway Airport does go private to manage it, what happens to all the City Workers that work there?? I'll tell you "pink slips" thats right,now that a private company bids and pays the little fucker x amount of dollars to get awarded the contract,all the city employees will be let go and be re-hired as a private workers for less pay, less benefits, ah fuck less everything!! What will be next,awarding contracts for garbage removal,sewer work,fire protection,police,etc..This guy wants to privatize the whole city work force to private companies so he can get the biggest kick back to award the contracts all in the name of saying Mr./Mrs. taxpayer money. Look at the function he already took away from the Police and awarded it a private company, directing traffic at city events!! To all the city workers who visit this site or family members, keep voting this piece of shit into office because he is irish,white,non-black/hipanic. He does not have your best intrest at heart.This fucker thinks you will keep voting him in office, he puts his name on everything like he owns it or will be in office until he croaks.If he stays in office all our jobs will be on the cutting blocks and unemployment lines here we come. SCC besides lighting a fire on the Street naming issue,you should also start a rally to de-thrown that little fucker called daley!!!

If someone gets the chance to corner an Alter-creature or Little Richie (especially with the camera rolling), it should be a lead in with a general question about the impression the City of Chicago wants to leave upon children for the future of Shhhh-caw-go..."Oh yes, anything for the kids." Then the REAL question: Then how does the city explain a street sign for Hampton less than a week after an innocent kid gets shot and killed in her living room in 007????????? How do you explain that TO THE CHILDREN?

No sign for Brian Strauss either. But, the banger who killed him might get the clinic in Pilsen named after him one day. It's too disgusting to be true but, we all know it is.
