Another Shooting

And again, bad guy to hospital, cops home safe:
  • A Chicago police officer shot and wounded a man who threatened to shoot the officer in a South Side apartment Tuesday afternoon, authorities said.

    At about 4:19 p.m., police responded to a call about shots fired in the 8900 block of South Baltimore Avenue, said police spokeswoman Monique Bond.
Good job guys. Does anyone have the totals for the year? Is it just us or do officer involved shootings seem to be getting a little more play this year? Are they up?

OFF TOPIC; I noticed that CFE TAGMEN has removed from their online list of CPD ribbon, The newly approved "Perfect Attendance" ribbon. This ribbon was approved June 2007 by some idiot that don't have a clue, perhaps someone has gotten to the dwellers of the Ivory Towers regarding the offensive ribbon.

I agree with you SCC, they (police shootings)do seem to be on the rise as of late, and they do seem to be getting more coverage in the news.

I say good for both - it is good that word gets out that the police in this city STILL have balls, and it is even better that the media reconizes the very dangerous aspect of this job. This ain't Mayberry.

Glad the police are okay in this one. Good job office - way to go home to your loved ones!

Why aren't there cameras in city hall? If the politicians were on the legitit the mayor and aldermen shouldn't be worried.

RE: SSC ATTENDANCE RIBBON

RESPONSES FROM CFE TAGMEN
July 2007

Unfortunately, my input is not involved in the CPD ribbons. When a new one is issued I scramble to make/find it to sell aftermarket. Also, unfortunately, when I realized the similarity it crossed my mind that may not be a good idea, but I didn't say anything. Not that I would even have been able to, really. Reaching the person who makes these decisions is next to impossible. Perhaps, had we a better rapport, I might have mentioned this similarity and they might have changed it.

Hindsight, you know. The first "uprising" I received was an email yesterday. Then later an officer had called to order nametags and I asked him about this and he said to look on Second City.

I left a message for the person in the department that I sometimes have contact with, although he's out until July 23rd or so. I could try to contact someone above him, for what it's worth. In fact I will just send a fax and see what happens.

Also, for the record, I have not sold any of these. I just put it on the site when it was approved but do not have stock of them. I don't think the department has issued them yet either so there's a good possibility this can be changed.

Again, we never intended to insult or disrespect any Veteran, we're just one of the "little guys" trying to make a living, the Department, so far, does not buy these from us either, we sell them aftermarket. Please accept our apologies for unintended disrespect.

Sincerely, Dona & Mike, CFE-Tagman.com

Love the article in the Scumtimes that reads:

Elderly man hurt in police shooting

Then continues with how the police shot this poor 77 year old guy and finishes with "family has a different story of what happened..."

018 Back in the News Again With More Shootings:
3 shot in Old Town
The shooting occurred about 4:55 a.m. at the 900 block of North Cleveland Avenue, according to police News Affairs Officer Hector Alfaro.

It has been awhile since I can recall 018 having this many shootings. Looks like it is really hopping over there.

Three shootings on Beat 1823 this morning. I was watching on my home pod monitors at 0455 hrs.

This is unacceptable. SPAR forms for the entire first watch.

Our beloved mayor (BARF) wants a 10 year contract for ALL UNIONS and Police & Fire.

This way if he throws enough tantrums and gets the Olympics, he wont have to deal with us. If we let this asshat do this....its going to cost him.

Yeah, I know, I know, it ain't in the right spot.... It still needs to be said:

God Bless America!

God Bless the CPD!

God Bless your hard working bretheren in the CCSPD.

God Bless our troops.

Despite the best efforts of Rich, Tommy-boy, Phil, etc. We WILL survive, we will overcome, we will win.

The Constitution is not a suggestion, it is the LAW. Swear to and uphold it with all of your might. All of your rights whether you use them or not are yours. This includes the 2nd amendment.

Liam Mulligan sang a great rendering of America the Beautiful. It is on Burbs-cop-chicago on their theme-music trailer. Take a listen.

Stay safe and be well.

In regards to the A/2 gang team shooting. It was only a matter of time that one of these bad guys were gonna get shot by one of those guys. They seem to be chasing someone every night. We are always glad to see them roaming in our district!

You're bringing up shit that someone may or may not have said from TEN YEARS AGO and tagging the entire current watch with it. You are an idiot.

P.S.
The offender was arrested by S.O.S., not Area 1.

Fighting for the last remnants of the Dope trade in that area. Say what you want about gentrification, but the wiley predators and their dope slinging days are coming to a vain& inglorious end. Good Riddance!

Here is a SHOUT OUT to the TMA who was riding the PAPV 4 wheeler LIc/M1488 who blew every stop sign and red traffic light from Jackson to 16thst st on Loomis and then stopped to write a Parker. When did the TMAs become emergency vehicles? This occurred on 3 Jul 07 at Approx 1420 hrs. There is a POD at 13th and Loomis and I'm sure it caught him.

THIS IS GOOD...but I want to make a comment regarding detectives and how we all think we're on the same side...awhile ago, off-duty cop is murdered with his own gun by neighborhood MORON...area ONE dicks work case....

That was about 10 yrs ago and I was one of the guys that worked that case. That comment was made by some Det's "tongue and cheek," laughingly because the piece of shit police-killer took the chicken shit way out..You are a jagoff for trying to cause some shit over a inconsequential comment..I still don't get how that comment means we're all not on the same side.I'm now on 3rd watch in A/1 and know myself and most others will go out of our way to help out any P/O that needs it on a case,make any Police-involved shootings as smooth as possible for the participant(s), back them up on street stops, and go in on calls, especially if we hear 1 car going on an in-progress. Nice effort trying to stir up some shit over nothing, asshole...BTW, doubt if you're an A/4 Det.

900 block of N. Cleveland is NOT "Old Town," it is CABRINI.
Like another poster said, the amount of territory still controlled by the gangs in Cabrini to sell drugs is rapidly going to be next to zero. When rats get crowded into a small space, they will quickly eat each other. We're only seeing it on a grander (and two-legged) scale now.
