Open Post
Listen - we have asked that the previous post be used ONLY for sympathies or condolences or even prayers for the fallen. We have about 25 or 30 posts below that one that are still open and can be used for all sorts of goofy crap. We'll even open up this post for off the wall comments. But leave the other one alone for shit's sake. There's a dead cop out there.

to my surprise i saw donny barrett accidently walk in at a beat meeting and when asked by a citizen what can they do to prevent from being a victim of a crime donny related all ya need to do is hide in the commander's office with me!
Fox News just did a survey and asked would you vote for Todd Stroger now, based on what he is attmpting to do in the County government.
94% SAID NO!!!
$21,000 reward for P.O. Vazquez's murderer?!? Come on FOP, it's time to ante up. That's freaking outrageous.
Where are the good reverends asking for info now? Gees, this city pisses me off.
Our brother has fallen so we will slow our activity until the city actually weeps for him and we will not work hard until they acknowledge the fact that he was a hero!
I didn't want to add on to the prayers, what I say next doesn't belong there. But in an open message to Cline, Starks, Daley etc...and to the FOP. Can we be the police now? I'm sick of the infighting, and childish games. One of us is gone now, and we must come together for him. Let us not rest until he does, when this dog is dead and our brother at peace. May we all be safe.
Crime Stoppers is offering a $1000.00 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the officer's killer.
FOP should have stepped up to the plate as soon as this happened with a substantial reward. But knowing OUR FOP, they know that since a cop has been killed, every effort is going to be put forward to find his killer. Thus they can avoid handing out a reward from their $$$$$$$$$$$ FOP reserve account. This is a shame.
Just like any other homicide, time is in essence. The sooner an offender can be placed in custody the better the odds that the gun hasn't been tossed or destroyed or other crucial evidence.
Burger King recently offered a $25,000.00 reward right after the killing of their employees. But our dedicated FOP has not even stepped up to the plate as I speak.
I am so pleased that the burger flipping industry finds their employees more valuable than our FOP.
And what about the City of Chicago, who hands out multimillion dollar settlements like it's candy? Mayor Daley, who is up for election, could have looked like a prince by offering a large reward.
Remember this my fellow officers as you are out there everyday with a bullseye on your back. The City and our FOP can give a shit about you unless its can make a free condolence statement on TV to look good.
Sincerely,
A pissed off dick from area 2!
embarassing truely embarassing
I've been gone from the job for awhile now but in the many years I was on, I have never seen an FOP administration as silent as this one. Past Presidents were calling press conferences so often it seemed like they were getting paid by the newservices. Dineen never met a politician he didn't like and Nolan could never pass by a mic without stopping to be pompous. But this guy, I don't think, I've ever seen him in the news. Its like he doesn't exist. At least someone in the organization should speak up publically for the officers!!!! How about it Mark?
Toddler was booed at the Obama rally at UIC!! Yes.
Like I tried to post on the MEMORIAL POST, now is not the time for revenge! It is time for good Police work. If this scumbag is ever caught, don't leave any loopholes!! Do it all by the book. Don't leave any openings for the Jag-ff Public Defender to get him/her off on. Do it all by the book, and you wont leave any opening. Maybe for once, a MURDERER wont get off on a technicality. Just look at the recent parolees (MURDERERS).
FUCK YOU SCC!!!! YOU BLOCK COMMON SENSE.
No one needs a copper going off half-assed, if this jag-off is caught it needs to be legit. Why did you allow a comment stating that everything needs to be above and beyond question, be deleted from the comment section????? What are YOU trying to hide????
I was only trying to calm the young, and at times too aggressive Officers who want to make a name for themselves. Get this JAG*FF, but don't leave any loopholes. That was my only point. But thanks to you, these young "COWBOYS" wont get that msg, and they'll F*up the investigation.
FUCK YOU AND YOUR B.S. RUMORS.
If I wanted this B.S., I would have stayed in HIGH SCHOOL.

First of all numb nuts, you posted this in the wrong thread - we moved here for you.
Secondly, what "common sense" were you attempting to post? The RIP Anna Nicole Smith comments? The anti-semetic rants regarding Amy Jacobson? Which brilliant insight was yours that was littered with the BS we said we were going to delete? Or maybe your comment was posted in another thread and you forgot where you put it?
If you can't follow the few simple requests we make, then your comments aren't going to see the light of day. Period.
First, be safe out there! Get the guy(s) who murdered a PO, but getting yourself killed because you weren't using your head will do nobody any good.
Be aware of your surroundings! Don't leave your weapon at home, carry it everywhere! Check to see if someone's following you. Don't be complacent. Don't assume it's just a robbery, or an isolated incident. Assume the worst, hope for the best. How many of us actually practice with our weapons?
We have to stop thinking of this job as just an 8.5 hour tour. The bad guys are bad guys 24 hrs a day.
And we can't expect the public to give us the recognition we deserve. It's unrealistic. It doesn't mean we slow down until they recognize us, because they just won't ever understand anyway. Let's do our jobs, people, no more, no less, and instead of worrying about public recognition or news stories, let's worry about getting the bad guys, and keeping ourselves safe.
Use your heads! It is the deadliest weapon you carry.
Like I tried to post on the MEMORIAL POST, now is not the time for revenge! It is time for good Police work. If this scumbag is ever caught, don't leave any loopholes!! Do it all by the book. Don't leave any openings for the Jag-ff Public Defender to get him/her off on. Do it all by the book, and you wont leave any opening. Maybe for once, a MURDERER wont get off on a technicality. Just look at the recent parolees (MURDERERS).
2/12/2007 11:20:00 PM
Fucking A right! All this talk of revenge is nuts...let's do it right and not have these retarded posts printed up and hauled out in court!!!
RE: 2305hrs.
Yes, of course my condolences go out to PO Vazquez, his family and his team!! My only concern is that another copper goes off half-cocked, and does something that would F*ck-up the investigation/confession.
That is the common sense that I refered too!
There are too many cops who are out for blood! But just a reminder, do what needs to be done, but by the book! (DON'T GIVE THE PUBLIC DEFENCER A THE CHANCE TO GET THIS SHITHEAD OFF)
based on the latest media reports I've seen (and, I know, the reputation of the media), it looks like the officer was the victim of an armed robbery....there is no doubt that someone HAS to know something about this case (probably the dicks know a lot about this case as of this writing); at any rate, this case should be solved...
SCC is truly a pompous jagoff.....PERIOD
SCC you must be at least a Captain, you know everything. What an ASSHAT !
Do we have any A/4 dicks out here? If so, I'm willing to distribute any type of flyer(s) to help capture the killer of Officer Vasquez.
I'm off Sat. and if someone is willing to draw up a nice flyer and make a ton of copies, I can stop by the station to pick them up this Saturday and pass them out in that neighborhood. Please let me know:
leomemorial@hotmail.com or call me (773) 585-1439
Oh, I'm sorry! The only info you are interest in is a D/C who is rumored to have been caught by his wife, screwing his D.O.C. gal.
So Sorry, Guess we ARE back in H.S.
This brave young man was killed by a coward almost 24 hours ago. Not only hasn't the FOP offered a reward but, they have not even mentioned it on their web site. I know it's a holiday but, how much effort could it take?
an excellent comment; you are never "safe" anywhere; always be armed and aware of your surroundings (you know, folks used to make jokes about cops wearing their guns while they cut their grass, or when they went to the alley to throw out their garbage; it wasn't so much about the fact that they were cops, but much more about the fact that, depending on the time of day, day of week, and location, a person, any person, could be a victim; so....the idea is, be armed, be aware (which puts the Daley/Democratic party/liberal bleeding heart philosopy/gun control crowd as defunct; by most estimates, there are 300 million fireamrs (give or take) in America; so what are Daley and the libs talking about when they speak about gun control? The bottom line: people in America are already armed....
FOP fuckn sucks! we need to elect a patrolman -- the last two presidents were dicks -dectectives for those non police readers- we need a fop president and fop representation of police officers, not detectives, or those who never did any police work, or those who havent done police work since the 80's, or those who sucked dick to get in elite units . i want a president who's a working cop. that is all
Screw our FOP!!! THEY ARE TERRIBLE! We never hear from them NEVER! They never go public in our defense NEVER!!! FOP and the Mayor's officer are one in the same. Remember when they are up for re-election!!
We work in a city where politically correct blindness is a disease. Where reality is pushed away by those who never have to face the the animal. We lost a good man and police officer. The media and politicians pander to these same animals because it keeps them in business. The reality is this city is being overrun by animals who have never been a productive member of society, just parasites. Channel 5, Mary Mitchell, all the hypocritical aldermen and cronies of Daly I hope the animal finds you. If they do, no tears will ever be shed by those who actually risk their lives to protect a city that is so blind and so eager to seem politcally correct that they refuse to accept reality. READ THE STATISTICS. WHO IS ACTUALLY COMMITTING THE BULK OF THE CRIMES IN CHICAGO. THERE IS NO CONSPIRACY ONLY REALITY, AND IT IS TIME TO FACE IT.
The offer for information leading to the arrest of our brother's killer is $1,000.00 from Crime Stoppers, $10,000.00 from FOP and $10,000.00 from the Department. We are all working to get this son of a bitch...and we will!

I wrote some thing on this blog,But you failed to show it,,About how cline would stand up in front of the real police and act like he cares..You on the blog,must be on the side of our worthless leader..The only ones who care about us our the guys in blue...

We hereby designate you "tiny brain #2."
Dear tiny brain #2,
That thread was for SYMPATHIES, CONDOLENCES and PRAYERS for a FALLEN OFFICER. It was not up there for you to spout off and rip on the Superintendent for his public expressions of sympathy for the fallen officer.
We all know the political score in this city. We've all been through the platitudes mouthed by the bosses at 35th Street and the politcians at City Hall - well, MOST of us have. You obviously have about three minutes on the job and have a learning disability if you can't follow simple instructions - TWICE.
Let's see if you can follow instructions if you get them a third time - Prayers, condolences and sympathies in the Officer Killed thread; bullshit in this thread or any of the other 20+ threads we have open.

If we truly knew everything, we'd be a Deputy Chief at least.
I swear some of you guys are just losers! Leave SCC alone, he gave you a place to come and vent you frustrations and maybe even learn something and all you idiots do is just whine like kids because "he didn't put my post up!"
Maybe the reason you lames are still patrolmen is because you couldn't read and/or comprehend well enough to pass the sgt's exam!
If you don't like it here......try this new and improved idea:
Start your own Blog, then you can post whatever you want!
I honestly think that something needs to be done about our "representation" by the FOP Lodge 7. THis is not a rant or an angry vent on the blog, but a serious question. Why DOES the FOP remain absolutely silent on almost every single issue that affects its membership negatively? I have been on 5 years now, and I do not remember a time that the FOP has been in front of a TV camera pushing and shoving for our rights. I can't believe the rest of the membership sits by allows this current FOP board to do NOTHING. What can we do as a fraternal organization, when our president and board members are honestly and truly nowhere to be seen, EVER! I think an effort should be made to either remove the current president or choose different representation. I am tired of not being represented by our Lodge.
Sincerely,
A pissed off dick from area 2!

Dear pissed off Dick-sucker from Area 2: The FOP held a press conference at about 5 pm that afternoon to announce the offering of a reward. I know a trustee, and Donahue called all of them to get the authority to offer the reward. You may not like him, but he is not Bill Nolan and does it right.
P.S. Watch a little television if you expect to see the press conference. FOP doesn't broadcast to the voices in your head.

HEY DOGASS, INSTEAD OF SITTING ON YOUR HANDS AS USUAL; GET OUT THERE AND LOCK EVERY MOTHER FUCKER UP YOU SEE ON THE WEST SIDE. IMPOUND EVERY CAR, VIOLATE EVERY MOTHER FUCKER THATS ON PAROLE OR PROBATION IF HE/SHE IS DIRTY NO MATTER WHAT THE CHARGE UNTIL THE PIECES OF SHIT ARE CAPTURED THAT KILLED OFFICER VAZQUEZ. IF YOU KNEW ANY BETTER, WHEN YOU TURN THE VISE PRETTY TIGHT, SOMEBODY WILL TALK AND TELL YOU WHAT YOU NEED TO HEAR TO TAKE THE HEAT OFF OR KEEP FROM GOING BACK TO JAIL...
I hope that someday that when I get off work I can head to a home in the far burbs, where I can leave my car unlocked and have no fear that some piece of shit is going to pop me for my wallet. Its bad enough that we have to work in this shithole, but to live in it? Please. I hope numerous doors were booted in, I hope the streets were swept, and I hope that those stuipd blinky cameras were all pointed at the sky for a few hours so our boys could do what needs to be done... Maybe two wrongs won't make a right, but somewhere along the line this liberal city has fostered the public's belief that the police serve the city....we dont. We serve justice. If we can get back to doing what needs to be done, everyone will be better off for it. Get rid of these stupid cameras, and lets REALLY do something to these pricks who are KILLING US. Be safe all...
saw in the daily bulletin 12 Feb 07 that the department has now set up a blog (only after blocking SCC) for officers to leave positive comments and to compliment the separtment. you guys have to check it out. fucking hilarious
Rest in peace friend
In gods graces we leave you
Prayers and thoughts with yours
Another senseless death
No sense it makes
Never will it
Again, a young life snuffed
Night terrors
I will miss you dearly
Certain peace rests with you
Only you will ever know
Leaving this earth too soon
Eternal life is yours!
Ok ,,,look Im sick of the department asking me to give for every known charity from the March of Dimes to the United Negro Fund, I don't mind giving but now one of our own was killed and now I want the department to "give" and have our so call mayor to put up a reward so this scum bag gets wat is due him,,,I think there should be more of an outcry from PO's. Just think it could of been me or you ...My condolences to the Vasquez Family
Have you read any of the controvertial comments on the department blog. Yeah me either what idiot would tell the truth after signing in and giving your information. go to a library log on to hotmail make a BS email id and tell the truth and then see if it gets put on the checkerboard blog. I can not believe any idiot at 35th st would actually think that that blog would be taken seriously.
FYI to all idiots who think
Amy Jacobson is Jewish, she is a Swede. (Scandinavian - Swedish, etc. for those who don't get it)
Dear Open Post:
I just want to know this:
Who's Anna Nicole's baby's daddy?
We need Maury NOW!
When Cline retires, God help us if Charlie Williams becomes Superintendent.
Whats up with the TEFLON JUAN?? where will he end up as a LT?
OVER 48HOURS AND NOTHING ON THE FOP WEB SITE ABOUT THE DEATH OF ONE OF US.
I really hope the city and the department steps up here and gives Jose a Full Honors Funeral. We are on duty 24/7 and this officer desreves nothing less.

In response to above caption that was APPROVED by our very own SCC.....Notice the "RIP ANNA NICOLE" (THE FIRST LETTER OF SENTENCE GOING DOWN) I really don't think who ever wrote that was being sincere. SCC....use your desk skills (obviously not a working copper) and filter out this sh*t!!
GOD BLESS OFFICER VASQUEZ AND HIS FAMILY.
Thanks for pointing that out. Comment deleted in the memorial post.
Obviously we have no desk skills as we've been on the street for years and don't have time to notice silly word play like the above.
But evidently you do.
is it time for the rank and file to have a vote of NO CONFIDENCE for Mayor Richard M. Daley yet? And how long are we going to have to wait this time for our next contract to be settled, while King Richie and Company collect the interest we should be getting.
Thanks for pointing that out. Comment deleted in the memorial post.

SCC....let me apologize, It was ignorant for me to "assume" that your behind the desk. As for your "years" on the street...it doesn't take a genius to notice the "silly word play" of RIP Anna Nicole.....just takes the least bit of investigative skill...(you must not of scored well on the Detectives test)
I rarely visit this sight although I must say you do a great job running it. I really don't want to get in a pissing match with you and I assume you are always on the defensive which is understandable. God bless our fallen brother and his family.

Hey A$$hole... The guy who pointed that out was obviously a friend of PO Vasquez and just trying to bring this to your attention. You dont always need to have the last word DICK!
"years on the street and no desk skills???" RIP ANNA NICOLE sticks out like a sore thumb! FYI to run a blog takes literally HOURS a day (as evident by timing of posts) so either you have EXCEPTIONAL desk skills or you have no life outside of this blog, loser!
So HAPPY VALENTINES DAY TO YOU AND YOUR BLOG!!
No, it doesn't take a genius to see if that's what you're looking for. We are looking to get 200 comments a day screened and posted so everyone can enjoy the back and forth. If we had noticed the word play, we would have deleted it earlier - that thread was meant for Jose Vazquez, no one else.
The wordplay may have been more appropriate to the "Seiser as the Mystery Father" thread. No offense taken at the attempt to put one over one us - good job. And we hope you don't take offense that we deleted it in the memorial thread as we did.
We weren't looking for the wordplay. And no, we didn't score well on the dicks test - if they keep it up for 10 years, we have an outside shot.
As to the other commentator, we have plenty of life outside this blog. And we didn't notice you running to tell us about the wordplay until after the fact, so we'll assume it got by you too Sherlock. And as to amount of time we are able to spend in this site making it what everyone seems to want to read, one person alone couldn't do what we do. Figure that one out Holmes.
No offense taken at the attempt to put one over one us - good job.
2/14/2007 05:37:00 PM
Thank you! When I thought of the RIP ANNA NICOLE I laughed for some time... then when you didnt post it I was upset. So knowing Im quite a bit smarter than SCC I knew I could sneak it on... and you made it so difficult it took me all of 1 attempt! DUMMY Think I will continue to find ways to showcase SCCs pea brain!
WHEN WE FIGHT,AND ARGUE, CUT EACH OTHER DOWN. WE DIVIDE EACH OTHER DAILY...NO WONDER WE CANT FIND A COMMON GROUND TOGETHER.I WEEP FOR THE VAZQUEZ FAMILY.BUT MY SYMPATHY IS FOR ALL OF YOU,THAT STRIVE FOR DIVISION, IN-FIGHTING, B-S THAT DOESNT MATTER.IVE BEEN TO TOO MANY FUNERALS, TOO MANY HOSPITALS.DO WHAT YOU CAME ON THIS JOB TO DO,FIND A COP KILLER. GO HOME TO YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILIES.STAY SAFE
