Cops On YouTube

OK, this is just dumb. But it's out there for everyone to see - might as well link to it.

Cops at the airport. Segways. And a citizen with a digital camera.

Good for some chuckles. Who are they?

WOW! I'm so glad that we spent the money on those things just so people could see that! Jeez, like we don't get enough shit from the indictments, press and now this parking bs. We should trade the bosses, those segways for the blackberries. If you're going to act like you belong on a chariot you might as well have one.

That’s pretty funny and sad at the same time. On one hand I think those officers extended their life expectancy by a couple days by being able to laughing it up at no one else’s expense for a couple mins on this god forsaken job. On the other hand it is sad that the powers to be actually want empty holster officers who are basically token tour guides at the airports.

Firefighters endorse Brown
Union rejects Daley; president disagrees

By Dan Mihalopoulos
Tribune staff reporter
Published January 22, 2007


Over the objections of their president, firefighter union officials have decided to oppose Mayor Richard Daley's re-election bid, endorsing Dorothy Brown instead.

The executive board of Chicago Fire Fighters Union Local 2 voted Friday to back Brown, the clerk of the Cook County Circuit Court, in the Feb. 27 election.

Brown scored points with strong support for funding firefighter pensions and opposition to merit promotions, said Local 2 Political Director Robert Tebbens.

Off Topic, but to paraphrase a famous quote:

"Go South Young Man"

From the Miami Herald...
Police enrich hiring deals: To lure seasoned law officers to its new police department, Miami Gardens is offering a lucrative hiring package.


Jan. 22--It's a working stiff's dream: excellent health insurance, $14,000 in signing bonuses, $5,000 for closing costs on a new home, automatic enrollment in the state's retirement system, and even a free SunPass.

All of that, to do the same job, just a few miles away.

For years, keeping and luring police officers and sheriff's deputies has been a struggle across South Florida, where violent crime is climbing and so is the cost of living.

And now the newly formed Miami Gardens Police Department is offering some extraordinary deals to lure 150 officers to its force.

The reason the sgt test results have not been sent out is because the test is going to be thrown out. With the elections, contract and new Sup. soming up, they are delaying in giving out this info. The new test will be given sometime in late fall. Good luck.
There will also be at least 2 more small classed off the old list.

I don't particularly care that they are blowing off some steam and having some fun,but don't you think they would do much better by getting off the segways,walking around,chasing someone,or even dancing to the music would burn off more calories,they look a little heavy in the midsection is all I'm saying.

Can I have one? Glad to see in these times when moral is in the shitter that we can still have a little fun on the job.

Yeah, it's a little weird, but to the people passing through Chicago, they can go home and tell a funny story, instead of one about how they were robbed, shot, beaten, etc in the big city.

Hell, on the 4th, we'd chase each other around the district, shooting bottle rockets at each other.

On midnights, we'd drag race around the district border (that used to piss of Evanston and Skokie).

And don't you dare find a hole and fall asleep 'cause you never knew who'd pop out and scare the piss out of you.

Ah, the good old days.
