Quick Hits

For a Wednesday:
  • Hereditary politics - why don't we just declare a perpetual ruling class in Cook County and stop pretending that we have an unbiased electoral system? At least with kings and queens, we could have the occassional palace coup and public beheadings when the mob actually rose up. Sun Times, Channel 2, Channel 7.
  • Aldercreature Burke continues with his insane idea to make food in Chicago taste like the crap they serve in Los Angeles. At least the schools are fixed and City workers aren't going to jail while tearing down garages on City time with City equipment, right?
  • Body Snatchers contract being re-bid again. One of these days, no one is going to bid for this thing and we'll be back to wagons carrying out the dead again.
  • Burge Report today! Other coverage here. We heard that HQ has two cars standing by at the courthouse to pick up copies which will then be given a quick escort to Kinko's and then to all the exempts at 35th Street. Numerous PAR forms are standing by in the event of a need for mass retirements.

Funny thing about the "hate crime" thing is Dana Starks in the article trying to explain why it wasn't viewed as one from the start.

--Oh, he just said he hates whitey in front of the judge and media? We'll look into it, but he's been telling us that he LOVES white people til now--

Just got done watching the Burge news conference, how great that the States Attorney's office keeps a database of every brutality beef against police in Cook County. Not just beefs, but if a claim of brutality by some shithead in court comes up, they document and keep that in their file. I didn't know that if some shithead claims in a motion to quash etc... that there was brutality that our names then go into this database. Am I the only one outraged by this? What the fuck is FOP going to do about this.
How many of us that get bullshit beefs are in that file? All of us of course. Unsubstantiated B.S. kept in a prosecutors database, if that's not a witch hunt, then nothing is. ACLU, where are u now?

Funny, watching suppose Police Officers attacking one another for anything and nothing. Divide and conqueor, apparently is a reality with these self proclaim heros. Cops shopping, sleeping, paying less then full boat for food or services fom local merchants, political appointees, sex for work positions, daddy's little girl/boy getting a soft cushy spot, 3 year wonders, and love those 4 hour details that pay a full 8 hours, how many return that extra pay for not actually working? Really get a kick out of these guys, who join the department so that they can work in their own area of residency, so that they can make sure nobody sneaking into their back doors banging their wives, while they are suppose to be at work. Love when they claim that they are trying to protect the old homestead....yeah right!!! Typical self righteous jaggoffs!
trying to portray the life style that all others are suppose to emulate. Most coppers are whores, and if you look at what most of them end up marrying, you can see why. Members of The Chicago Police Department aren't even classified as the lowly civil servants, too fucking stupid. A bunch of college bust outs who couldn't find work in their field of collegiate endeavors. Whine, whine and whine...fuck all of you sorry sons of bitches, I hope all of you end up in the Federal prisons, sued, outcasted and alone, you don't deserved the uniform that you wear, or the star on your chest, disgusting bottom feeders.

I would first like to say I do not work in 022. As a sgt. I was detailed there for one day. As I had anticipated most of the calls were dispatched east of Ashland. I’m sure most 22nd dist guys will tell you is normal day to day. I believe the above comments were made by a citizen who formed his opinions from the bullshit he occasionally reads on this site. He is also given ammunition from his “fed-up neighbor policemen”. With regards to uniformed and plain clothes officers shopping while on duty. I cant say it doesn’t happen but I shop at both Dominick’s and Jewel and I never ran into any on duty coppers shopping. Sex scandals? If this is something that you read here and are basing your opinions on rumors….shame on you! If the scandalous sex is off duty then who really cares. Two hour lunches I seriously doubt are occurring. Guys at times will stretch a half hour to 45 minutes and I will admit that can be a bit of a problem but not just in 022nd dist. If you had a clue how the system works though, after a half hour the car is available for assignment . You also make the allegation of drinking while on duty is occurring. This shouldn’t be tolerated nor excused by anyone but I’m sure you wouldn’t dare file a formal complaint because you yourself probably never saw anyone drinking or smelled alcohol on any officers breathe. You probably are basing this again on some bullshit rumors you heard . Go to your caps meeting and vent, bring your fed up neighbor policemen with you. I’ll be there and I totally agree with you that we deserve better service from the Chicago Police Department, but stop blaming the copper on the street. I’m sure the disgraceful brutal beating of one of our own 14 year old kids by 3 vicious animals is the breaking point. People need to point fingers and assign blame but place the blame where it belongs. On the3 animals who put this poor kid in a coma. You have a problem with service then blame a department that strips down district law enforcement for “specialized units”, doesn’t keep up with attrition for I don’t know how many years and sends district tact and gang teams to special events, but stop blaming the copper on the street.

Alderman Rugai has announced a new City safety ordinance in the City Counsil.

All Pitbull Dogs and Male Blacks will be barred from the City of Chicago. Rugai did "grandfather" the current ones living in the City to stay but on the following conditions.

Pitbulls must be registered and be insured. As well as having their teeth remove. Also the Pitbulls must have an identification chip embeeded in them.

Black Males that are "grandfathered" to stay in the City must also be registered and have a $5,000,000.00 criminal liability insurance policy and also be embedded with a G.P.S. chip.

Rugai stated that when both of these dangerous and injury causing elements are effectively removed from the City, She expects to see the crime stats and personal injury rate to drop dramatically.

It amazes me that for two weeks in a row, during the CJR Lieutenenat's study group, even after being told MULTIPLE TIMES to turn off all cell phones, those goddammed phones are ringing through the whole test!!! How hard is it to turn off the phone? How about setting it to vibrate? YOU HAVE BEEN TOLD TO TURN THEM OFF BEFORE THE TEST STARTS!!! But all through the test phones are chirping, ringing, playing music, etc...

And before our closet KKK friends start, last night all the phones ringing appeared to belong to white males! Seriously, if you can't follow a simple instruction, you have no business looking to get promoted.

It's just the absolute disregard of common courtesey for fellow sergeants that really pisses me off. The next person who's phone rings in that class during a test should be asked to leave without a refund!!!

Either that, or may I suggest a blanket party at the break?!?!?

Just when is the 22nd District C.A.P.S. meeting? Is it this month? The citizens are fuming over this beating the 14 year old kid got. Heard it talked about at our block party and at church. I can't blame 22nd police BUT the 22nd District police our taking a lot of heat now. Watch the way you take lunches and personals. I hear the citizens of a certain block are really mad at 22nd police for their response time to certain incidents in their neighborhood. ie...kids drinking, suspicious person,etc. There are several complaints already so don't give the citizens anymore ammunition guys and gals. Area 2 detectives as well. Just because you dress in dress clothes don't mean taking two hour lunches in public places. Already hear CBS, ABC and NBC doing reports.

Hey all you dudes and dudettes... here's a thought. Since when was policing NOT political? Since the dawn of the police it was all about clout. No one really cared if you did anything, but it made some politician look good. As time rolled on so did the politics involved. But make no mistake, WE serve the citizens. What the Mayor, Alder-persons, etc.. want, they get. For the state police, it's seatbeltys and speeders. No real criminals wanted. That's why everything is so understaffed. From cook county sheriff's, it's vice baby! Yeah, and some occasional roadblocaks but get them 'ho's' off my block. For chicago, it's parkers and community policing. Catching bad guys is up to the individual officer. It will never be a set mandate. We are at the whim of command. They bow down to the law makers and we have to also. It sux, I know. But, it's ALWAYS been this way. It just happens to be very obvious lately. Now, i'm not saying "give up" and eat it. I'm just reminding you that you can bitch all you want about how everyone sucks, but at least tell us how to fix it. And when we get those solutions, then we bitch to the ''in-charge'' honkey mo-fo's and then they (and the media / fop / city / county / state) will listen.

Again...just a thought. Thanks for the soapbox

The hate crime law is inherently unfair and should be abolished because it results in dissimilar penalties for the same criminal act.

For example, a liberal democrat and a person of Swedish descent are talking on the corner. A right-wing extremist approaches, yells “I hate liberals!” and punches the democrat in the face. Next, a misguided xenophobe (is there any other kind?) approaches the person whose great grandparents are from Sweden, shouts “I hate you neutral, cowardly Swedes!” and punches the Swede in the face.

According to the current state of the law, the right-wing extremist will be charged with misdemeanor battery for hitting the liberal democrat. However, the xenophobe will be charged with both misdemeanor battery and a FELONY hate crime for hitting the Swede. Thus, under the hate crime statute, the offense of hitting a Swede will be met with a significantly harsher penalty than the act of punching a liberal democrat because, unlike national origin, political affiliation is not a class protected by the hate crime statute.

When legislators determine that certain classes of people are entitled to more protection from criminal acts, then, by definition, these legislators are declaring that other classes of people are entitled to less protection. Similar criminal acts deserve similar criminal penalties. By enforcing hate crime laws, we allow the government to become the thought police. This results in too much subjective (a/k/a “selective”) prosecution - and unequal protection under the law.

LAPD
My name is DJ and I'm a LAPD police officer. I live in the heart of Hollywood and I work patrol in South Central Los Angeles. My LA life is extremely polar. I patrol the most violent streets in our country and I live at the foot of the famous Hollywood Hills. I started this blog to share my experiences and show both sides of this great but often misunderstood city. And if you are interested in law enforcement, hopefully this will give you a peek into this extremely exciting profession.

Legalities of Blogging

This is just a quick post to thank everyone for your advice.

I'm going to talk to someone in legal, within the LAPD, and find out what policies I need to be concerned with.

My goal will be to definitely keep this blog going, in some form, but to stay within the boundaries that I need to.

I have a specific goal here and I want to stay on track. I never wanted to be one of those anonymous cop websites where they bitch about their dept and command staff, etc.

I am further driven by the endless positive feedback I receive about how I portray my job and my department. And that is not something I do with specific intent. It is simply a byproduct of how I genuinely feel.

So stay tuned, I'll keep everyone posted!

A few comments on the savage beating of the kid in 022...
1) 022 is the third biggest district areawise yet is served by only 9 beat cars and 2 rapid response cars. Beat 2211 is so big in size, that using just one car to patrol it is ludicrous. Then add to that all of the times 2211 is pulled off the beat.
2) Zone 10's dispatcher is a cranky racist who edits calls that involve suspicious male black teen offenders. He routinely fails to give complete descriptions and even worse..he holds these calls for long periods of time giving these offenders time to commit crimes and then escape back to the east end of the district.
3) Have you ever called 911 about suspicious persons in 022? The call takers give you the third degree. If you don't tell them you are a police officer your call is never getting dispatched in a timely manner. It is totally unbelievable when you tell the black call taker that the offenders are black male teens and then she asks how they are being suspicious. The call takers get attitudes like nice black teens are just riding their bikes through the neighborhood and they are being harassed. I have had my wife call me at work to complain about the call taker's racist attitudes. I routinely call for a Sgt. and then I know the call is dispatched immediately.

Sorry for the long post but I just wanted the other posters to know what is going on in 022.

022 and 005 are covered by CPD Radio Zone 9.

Dont confuse Zone 10, the baddest police radio station in the nation with 022.

This has been a Zone 10 simulcast.

The afternoon dispatcher on zone 9 is crazy and pissed of that he cant get on the job flunked the psych. He gives out jobs as he feels appropriate yells and screams on the radio but he is a equal oppurtunity nut job hates his people as much as anyone. he is funny as shit to listen to when he flips out but he cannot do the job and is a shit dispatcher. Everyone needs to complain about the call takers they dont put out the calls for service on the westend of 022. 2211 spends 85% of the tour working the eastend of the district. on midnights there is always a down car and no wagon everycar has to go east because of the call volume. if you are on the westend call early and call often. call back and say the off now has a gun NO DONT DO THAT THATS WHAT THE ANIMALS DO. BUT WAIT YOU 30 MINS AND THEN ASK FOR A SUPERVISOR. Oemc handles there own complaints and throws them out. you might want to call you alderman but she doesnt care. It would be a good idea to vote her out of office. But everytime you see something call hopefully they will send a beat car to the westend sometime during the tour.

Higher than average crowd for 2211's beat meeting, but not as many showed up as should have. The typical attitude of bitch, bitch, bitch about something, but don't get involved when they should have been there.........Cmdr saying in response to question, "Would I like more people....Yes.....Do we have enough...Yes." I nearly choked. James Malloy and Mike Shields showed up, with Malloy telling the company line. Garrity also telling the crowd that 2211 never gets pulled out of the 10 sector.....excuse me, choked again. John Somerville, Virginia Rugai's perennial and upcoming opponent in the alderman's race, tried to start his campaign piggybacking on the issue. The guy is personable one on one, but needs to learn to pick his spots better if he wants to have a chance. He came off sounding arrogant and turned off people when attempting to engage Rugai in a debate. He can't afford to lose a single vote. 19th ward was close last time, could be even closer in March.
