Calling All Veterans of 1968

The Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) and harbinger of the Weathermen are returning to the scene of their greatest defeat next week in an effort to recapture the glory days of yore:
  • Students for a Democratic Society, the "New Left" organization whose numbers swelled on college campuses in the 1960s, has resurrected itself and is planning its first national convention in 37 years. Next week, on August 4-7, the reconstituted group returns to Chicago, the same city where SDS had its headquarters and where rioting erupted at the 1968 Democratic Party convention.
  • To announce the convention, an SDS member from the University of Arizona in Tucson, Geoff White, 21, adapted the design of a red fist from an old poster announcing the "Days of Rage" in 1969, when an SDS faction, the Weathermen, rampaged on Chicago's streets in response to the trial of the "Chicago Seven," who had been indicted for inciting the riots a year earlier.
Guess it's time to break out the batons and axe handles and paddy wagons and finish the job our forefathers began. Hopefully we're up to the task. Thanks to Captain's Quarters for alerting us to the return of the student menace.

What bugs me about it all is their hijacking of such a worthy name. When I was a student, I was for a democratic (but not Democratic) society. I still am. These guys weren't Democrats or Republicans.

I always wondered why nobody took the name back for those students who are actually for a democratic society.

Don't know Lt. Fitzsimmon's political beliefs but as far as being a liberal, here is a story I may or may not have witnessed (I'd rather not trust anonymity since I'm speaking of someone else). Lt. Fitz helped drag police fighter into station all the way to lockup. Shithead had been pepper sprayed and began screaming for water for his eyes. Fitz told lockup keeper, "Under no circumstances does that cocksucker get water, in fact, cuff him to the bars so he can't get to the toilet water. This motherfucker is a police fighter. Fuck him." And thats how it went.

in regards to stroking "BG" from 008. why don't you cowards state who this is , and leave the innocent "BG" out of this. If the BG you are referring to is the son of a capt on the job, then your comments are unwarranted. Having worked in 009 with this BG, sure at first he seems over zealous, but then get to know him. Yeah, he's got a million tattoos, but this kid's got a heart the size of Texas, he'll give you the shirt off his back, all you need do is ask. Ask anyone on the job, he's a piper and has played countless funerals, weddings, and parties free of charge, not like those greedy others. This guy respects the police and their families, and does anything to help. He never brags about military duty, 'cause he was never in the military, get your stories straight. State a real name, or your own. I'm sure the upstanding "BG" will give you a chance to explain yourself, before he pummels you into the earth from which you came. So why all the comments about a good copper who helps all around him, even offering without being asked. Some disgruntled copper blowing off steam at an easy target. Pick a worthy DOG in 008. Charrise Holland and Yvonne Delia both huge medical abusers, DOg AS***, and cop haters. It's a disgrace they wear blue. Each is a host of gang banging offspring, and each will fu** a fellow copper at the drop of a hat. So why are they untouchable? They give the other females a bum reputation for their shenanigans. Both should have been fired a long time ago, but there isn't a boss with the stones to start the ball rolling. There, it's said, this should be the target of your anger, not a working policeman willing to help any POLICEMAN with anything. So go ahead print the real name, or show your cajones and stroke the real dogs, as the FACTS above state.

The cops in 1968 were the real police. Not just at the Convention, but all over the city. No one messed with them. They left you laying in the dirt, bleeding. They broke bones, smashed faces, and were feared. Oh yeah, they backed each other up. If there was some one they didn't like or trust, they just ignored them. They did not try to destroy them, unless of course the guy was a rat stool pigeon. Then all rules got thrown out.

Today, the opposite is true. We are a pathetic joke. The kinder, gentler police. The cowardly police. The fearful police. Today, ten percent are the real cops and ninety percent are the crybaby wannabes. The only reason most are cops is only because the city lets them wear a uniform, star, and gun.

Oh yeah. In 1968, those guys stuck together. They were tight. Today, ah, it's just sickening.

Rifles??Yea Blago, lets grab all those dirty assault weapons!! Im currently authoring a story how the M-1 carbine saved Chicago. If u recall the KING riots took place that same year. Alot of the cops then were WW2, Korea, and even some early VNAM vets. It WAS a hell of a force back then. Alot of the guys I interviewed said the Carbine was the #1 choice for the behind the scenes firepower.Guys were fighting to get their hands on the 30 round(Blago just fainted)clips. Some had the rifle in their closets, some had to buy/borrow one.But we have the leadership of Blago(golden gloves guy) and Daley JR,and we dont need those stinking rifles. That 10% of the force thats not going to cut and run during a major uprising will be fine w/a pistol. Blago's so sure of this, he's buying his old family house back at Fullerton/Cicero to embrace the diversity thats now in his old hood. He knows when that when he makes assault weapons illegal state wide, the gangs, career thugs,and anyone else that shouldnt have one will me immed. turns their's in; like they did under under the city/county bans.Dont we have a handgun ban in this city?

The SDS were (and are still I'd guess)socialists. They were fools who didn't understand the Vietnam war was about preserving their freedom to be idiots-just as so many near sighted liberals/socialists today don't understand what's happening in the Middle East...and why it's all about protecting the Hollywood left, useless liberals, pot smoking hippies etc. Osama et al don't hate George Bush, they hate that in the US you can watch an R rated movie, listen to a rap song about bitches and hoes, condone same sex couples, and pray to whoever you want. The only agenda SDS today has is get attention, get arrested, pretend to be victims, the USA sucks. Check out there web site, it's pathetic. It's the Vietnam War and now Iraq that have continued to give these people there right to be political retards without getting there hands chopped off.

And Richardaustin-your theory about this just being a paycheck is why this city isn't safer for our families. If every cop lost your shitty "I'm a victim of the city" attitude, and actually did their job well, Chicago would be a better place to live, and the Department would be a much better place to work. Instead, us workers have to work extra hard for people too lazy, or too afraid to do what needs to be done.

I miss the old days…

What happen the bosses that when one of there guys got a C.R.# the Sergeant would say..how can we fix this, or don’t worry, keep working, I’ll take care of it! Now they say, what the fuck did you do now.

The bosses these days want to jump down your throat when there is a problem instead if saying let me listen to what happen and see how we can work it out.

There is no substitute for experience, well except when it comes to clout heavy political hacks like the one in Area Five. Some bosses fear what they don’t have…experience. Bosses have to realize that patrol officers and detectives under their command are going to make mistakes and should be encouraged and mentored not criticized and belittled. The police department use to have its own checks and balance system when a Sergeant felt comfortable to tell the Lieutenant that he disagreed with him and a Lieutenant to a Commander. When the bosses surround themselves with yes men we lose the checks and balance. It becomes a dictatorship and the men and women doing the actually work suffer because of it. If you’re a boss and are afraid to be your wrong you are a fool and we have plenty of them. “You do not lead by hitting people over the head. That's assault, not leadership.”

It’s time to go back to the old days where the bosses and the rank and file worked together and not against each other. The bosses better realize they are destroying this department when they treat the most precious commodity they have (the rank and file) like shit. It’s ok to make a mistake, it’s not done on purpose, and it should be used as a tool to make the officers and detectives better at what they do.

A 1968 Veteran remembers:

Back then, most cops didn't have helmets. The first ones were
issued in early 1968 to graduating
Recruit Classes. Sergeants wore
blue shirts and the Uniform Police
Pants were wool with a white edging
down each outside seam.

I don't know when it started, but
I do know how this lack of proper
head protection was handled " at the District level"

Those without helmets found an
interesting way to afford themselves some protection.

This is what they did. First off,
a couple of bar towels were acquired. Easy enough back then when there were Taverns on almost every block.

Next, the first Harris Pie Co. truck that came along was stopped
and the driver asked for three metal pie plates. The Harris
Co. supplied pies everywhere
in the area. These pies came on metal pie plates which the drivers picked up from the stops on his route. As long as the driver got his plates back when the emergency was over; he would be willing to loan them to the Beat guys working the area that he covered.

You see, the Pie truck driver worked alone and was paid in cash for the pies.

Just a few years before,The regulation Police Hat had been changed to one with a round wool top. Uniforms were expensive, so a bar towel was folded to fit into the inside top and then a pie plate was added and then another bar towel and then another pie plate and finally one last bar towel.

Correctly done, this arrangement
did provide a degree of head protection and the entire arrangement stayed together if the
hat was pulled down just a little tighter down on the Officer's head.

Should anyone care. My next posting will relate just how that long vanished breed known as the
"Loop Corner Men" managed to survive Chicago Winters while directing traffic at a loop intersection.

For SCHICKLEGROOVER
Fatty Fitz had just made Sgt and was off duty and went into a store beefing at the owners about a delivery truck blocking the alley. Well the owner calls for the foot guy. Foot guy shows up and Fatty tries to push his weight around literally and the old foot guy kicked his ass. Well Fatty Fitz wants a CR# and the Watch Commander gets a CR# but it is on Fatty not the foot man. Fatty takes time sooooo being the former IAD rat that he is and being a sore loser he rats out the footman who was living in Skokie getting ready to retire. So old footguy gets nailed for residency and retires. And Fatty goes on to be a Lt now but still a fucking IAD rat. He was aided by his old partner a wagon man in 024 who was the only big mouth rat fuck to talk to the FBI when the FBI was nailing wagonmen. Interesting the wagonman took no time but the funeral home he ratted out got indicted. Hang around with Fatty Fitz and you too can become a fucking rat. Hear that Duffy?

As my dad use to say, there are more horses' asses than horses' heads and most become a boss.

Clout driven promotions never look at a person's lack of or his/her actually abilities. This job as well as many other City departments are filled with countless people in supervisory positions who are self serving assholes, completely incompetent and many with psychological problems.

But not you, I or us combined are ever going to change this process. I suggest that you just ignore the bullshit, hit the City for every chance you get to make extra money via overtime and milk if for all you got.

As a fellow copper use to say,

You shoot an armed offender who were threatening some good citizens and after your bullet passes through the armed felon it strikes a 1 year old baby and kills the child.

You just went from Hero to Asshole in less than 1/10 of one second.

The lesson learned is your only as good as yoour last act. So becareful, do what you have to and collect the check. The years that you need to retire wll pass you by faster than you'll ever know. And if you end up coming home each night safe and without inury, you already have the system beat.

Off the thread but maybe a little connected to "leadership" - word has it that in 008 today the commander ordered the Field Lt. to measure the widths of parking places in three other police Districts with three more Districts on her horizon tomorrow. Now why, one might ask, would the commander of a District utilize this rarest of rarities nowadays (an actual Field Lt.) in such a frivolous pursuit? An answer may be that she had the temerity to point out the ridiculously narrow widths of our police vehicle parking spaces and do it in the narrative portion of a Dept. Crash/Damage Report. Or perhaps its roots lie deeper, given the Lt's courage to support her subordinates and her choice not to partake in the 008th District kool-aid piped in from Vagina Tower. Oh well. It's just another example of our exemplary leadership; if it wasn't so pathetic it would be hilarious.

Lt Fitzsimmons is no friend of the blue shirt. Simply because you have heard him say some "crazy" stuff or witnessed isolated occassions does not make him a "stand up guy". He has ratted on more coppers than one cares to count. But think what you want.

JUST IN:
Just watching the idiot box. ABC news reports that they have received transcripts of Daley’s interview with the Special Persecutor in the Burge incident. They revealed a copy of the letter that Brezeck sent to Daley regarding the so called alleged torture.

Now maybe I am dense. Maybe I am stuuuuuuuuupid. Maybe I am just to dumb to see the forest for the trees. Hey, I waaaaas watching TV!

Jon Burge was a Chicago Police Commander working for the Superintendent of the Chicago Police Department. He did not work for Daley. He worked for the Mayor, Jane Byrne. If Brezeck was soooooo concerned, then why didn’t he conduct an investigation per the Department Directives that he is supposed to enforce. He could have even initiated a confidential investigation if he was worried about the prosecution of a cop killer. It was his responsibility, not Daley’s. Burge worked for him. Not Daley. Burge was under the control of the Police Department, not the State’s Attorney.

Sounds like Brezeck was afraid of the backlash if he investigated. Maybe he was afraid of Burge. Maybe he was afraid of his own reflection in the mirror. Maybe it was all a hoax. He was already roundly hated by the rank and file. He was never the police. His claim to fame and his only encounter with violence came when he got the scar on his face. During a drunken brawl with a cocktail, he fell off the barstool and banged his head on the bar, opening up a mean cut. Maybe it affected his already scrambled brain. In fact he is the model for the kinder genteler police we have today. He was an office pooch from day one.

God bless Jon Burge and the brave detectives who worked for him. Where are they now that we really need them.

To Fitz bean spiller: I really meant thanks for the scoop. I don't really know him. Just witnessed the one incident and thought I'd share. Like you said, it was an isolated incident. Will watch my ass a little more carefully if ever dealing with him in future. Thanks.

From readng some of the posts, it appears that most of "us" are nothing more than whining, jealous, crybabies. Which boss got his by clout, which, detectives, sergeants and lieutenants are meritorious etc.

First, since the Roman legions, command staff have been chosen partly by who they know or who invites them aboard. No leader wants subordinates that he cannot trust or control.

Second, you are just jealous because you or your guy did not get something. If your pal was a boss and he took care of you, you would go no where near this blog. Same goes for meritorious promotions. Hey, if you want to get promoted you have to take the test. If you wnt to get on the fast track, you have to take the test and make friends. Looks like most of you morons only made enemies.

Life is not fair. it never has been and never will be. No, and I mean no, job is legit. If you think you are so hot and so smart then go work in private industry. Oh, please do not complain when your overall genius is not recognized because your boss promoted the dunderhead from his fraternity or his idiot brother in law over you. Get over it, get a life, and do your job.

Oh, and if you think you are doing us a service by demeaning and degrading the bosses, just remember. They can make our lives miserable or easy. How you treat people, face to face or anonomously, is how you get treated down the line.

Booted from flight, comedian accuses

United of racism Airline's actions won't fly with Mo

BY CHRISENA COLEMAN, DANIELLE WARD and NANCY DILLON
DAILY NEWS WRITERS


Mo'Nique says flight attendants treated her 'like an animal.'

TV star Mo'Nique got kicked off a United Airlines flight Sunday after getting into a spat with a flight attendant, and this time the comedian isn't laughing - she's crying racism.
"I felt like I was being treated like an animal," said the 38-year-old celebrity, whose seldom-used full name is Mo'Nique Imes-Hicks. "This happens to black people all the time, and they don't have a voice. I have a voice."

The "Phat Girlz" actress, rumored to be in line to replace Star Jones on "The View," told the Daily News the incident started when her hair stylist stashed a hair dryer in a first-class bin. While Mo'Nique was flying in the front of the cabin, her aide was in coach.

The "Showtime at the Apollo" host said she tried to keep her cool when a flight attendant first questioned the stylist's actions. But things escalated when another flight attendant allegedly refused to believe the beauty tool belonged to Mo'Nique.

"Tell your people that the next time they have an attitude, they are being thrown off. ... Since 9/11, we don't play around," one flight attendant allegedly told Mo'Nique.

"Are you equating my hair dryer with 9/11?" Mo'Nique said she retorted.

The exchange ended in Mo'Nique being escorted back to Chicago's O'Hare Airport, where, according to the star, a supervisor called local police to complain of a "disgruntled and belligerent passenger." "It was humiliating," Mo'Nique said.

Chicago police declined to comment yesterday, but Mo'Nique said one of the responding officers was black - and eventually sided with her.

"You can't do this to her," the officer told the United supervisor, according to the actress.

Screw SDS..That 21 y.o. student Geoff White doesn't scare me!

Hell, he wasn't even around when Miami Vice and Hill Street Blues was on T.V.

These punks today that were raised in the 80's and 90's are the most privilaged and narcissistic members of society today. They had everything growing up and still bitch and moan. Heck he probably was breast-fed until junior high school!

Each generation young adults get dumber and dumber!

Let them (SDS) reform..we kicked their father's asses and we'll kick theirs too!!!!!!!!!

(Plus it will help the economy as Advil and ben-gay sales will sky-rocket when I'm resting my sore muscles after working the overtime!)

Fuck you troll.

Go back to your campfire and bitch and moan about how bad you have it here.

According to the leftists like yourself, we should wait to be attacked before we take military action. If the Soviets didn't arm the Viet Cong, there would have been no conflict.

Oh and I had a problem finding the "University of Pennsilvania." But I did find a University of PENNSYLVANIA.

If you are going to attempt to sound educated, at least learn how to spell.

Well said 10:16. Almost too simple to understand for most socialists is this fact: people are not all good. Communism and Socialism sound great, but do not work because they are run by imperfect people. I'm sure if all people were like you, Coldtype, we'd all live in a peaceful socialist world. That's now how things work-familiarize yourself with Castro, Stalin et al.
As far as your idea that the SDS wanted a "true democracy," and not socialism, SO WHAT. A true democracy denies protection to minority members of the group. Why don't you stop trying to impress people with your use of the word Indochina, and try to understand political science 101. Stop feeling guilty about living in the USA-capitalism and freedom are the only things that give you the freedom you obviously take for granted. PS-would you really want a true democracy? Look at your neighbors on both sides, or the guys next to you in roll call (assuming you're the police). Do you really trust the "majority" to make good decisions? The founding fathers did not, and neither do I.

Socialism is a nicer word for welfare . I'm proud to say I earn my keep and do a very small part in keeping this country, state and dis city safe. At least when I was in school, I was able to see past the vile propaganda espoused by the flaming far left. Liberal ideology can be best described as impractical, fantasy or pure fiction.

You are either young, naive or stupid. SDS challenged the U.S. by attacking (physically) the federal, state, county and local authorities. The came here to start and continue trouble. They did start it but ran like whore cowards. Apparently they realized that all of daddy's money couldl not stand between them and a billy club.
SO, you are wrong, I know this because I was there.

I never had so much fun kicking SDS asses in 1968. I always said there should be a riot every year, just for morale. I wonder how the present day CPD would handle a riot like 1968, with lezbo's, fagets, and little people.

If you remember when the first riots started in about 1965, we were issued white Civil Defense helmets, that were made of steel, and they sucked.

Coldtype-let me get this straight...the USA is impefect because of big corporations...therefore you support socialism. Guess what, governments are run by PEOPLE. PEOPLE are imperfect, therefore so are governments. NO ONE, and I MEAN NO ONE, NO COUNTRY has a better system of government than the USA. I think most of your ideas are surface deep, but I support your freedom to be wrong. AS for the whole "International Law" thing-are you kidding? Let me guess, you trust the UN over the USA too, right? Your problam is these IDEAS are great (socialism giving equality for all/a world government doing what's right) but the REALITY is not everyone is fair minded (as I assume you are). Leaders abuse power, people stop working and take advantage of welfare, etc etc etc. I support anyone who wants to make our system better-but throwing away the best thing that anyone has come up with thus far-as SDS would hope to do-because it is not perfect-is ridiculous. PS-Ever vote for Daley?

hey " almost tail lights"

or should I say 820 oops I mean 840, it's so hard to remember except I know you're not 810 or 830, I guess it's just easier to call you Larry Knasiak.

did that Lt. have the temerity to back up you and your lighter and your pyrotechinics when you got dumped , I don't think so, what I heard is she just said " yes sir" she certainly didn't take up the torch for you or anyone in housing when she was there and the unit got disbanded, of course she was also in charge of school patrol when it got disbanded. LOL, maybe I should bid to 08 and see where I go when IT gets disbanded, LOL. But you know what, I actually feel sorry for both of you, really, if you would just both get your meds adjusted appropriately, who knows???????



oh, and "F" the typo police just in case, really big LOL!!!!!!!!!

HEY COLDTYPE

Apparently you were not around for the "68 activities. Hell you probablly wasn't born yet.

Listen youngster, stop reading that left wing crap your brain will rot. IF you are a police officer, quit. You seem like a worthless piece of shit.

I bet you work at 35th St.for some wack-job "boss".

Listen, things were done in "68 only men would do. When I say men I mean CHICAGO POLICE MEN. The SDS were a bunch of snotty spoiled little brats. Daddy should have spanked them but they did't have the balls, so they sent Abbie, Jonathon, Rennie and rest of them to Chicago so the Police could teach them some manners.

I was sitting in a bar, yes a bar not a library, in the downtown area in the 80's when in conversation with an out-of-towner asked my thoughts of Chicago trying to get another convention. I replied that it would be fine "BUT WE WON'T TREAT THEM WITH KID GLOVES LIKE IN '68". Mr. New Yorker didn't lilke that but so fucking what.

So Mr. coldplay when you get real life expierences under your belt you will find that your still wrong. Develope an original thought for yourself, don't rely on your old leftwing, communist, socialist bullshit kid.
