Ride To Remember
- On a West Side street Sunday morning, a single motorcycle engine sparked to life. Before long, it was joined by a chorus belching forth a deep, throaty rumble.
Soon a concussive procession of chrome, leather and tattooed arms was speeding past, as hundreds of bikers rode through the 3200 block of West Harrison Street to the awe of pedestrians.
But if the noise was deafening, at least it was for a cause.

What happened on the NW side in Edison Park, Did a P.O. sign complaints against SEISER & his father for Battery & then they got arrestted? Can SCC please clarify what happened?
Skidders, Bikers should be ticketed for loud mufflers. Put stops on them, most don't have an "M" class DL. I gotta laugh when I see cops dress up like the village people.

3 shot in 008>> 1st watch >>in one night. one dead,two wounded (dont really give a f#%k), over this past weekend....what makes matters worse .....beat 811 calls a 10-1....a battery in-progress...one of the offenders caught pouring gas over a citizens car is getting is ass kicked...and here comes momma....an odpo (10 dist 2nd watch) to save the day....what does she do??? she lets the dog loose (a pitbull) on the 811/813...her shit bag son runs inside the house.....sarge on-scene..orders her to give up her son...she responds in her hill-billy way...and sure as shit begans fighting with the police....now she's in for obstruction/resisting.....and all the 1st watch will soon be called on the suit.(p.s.....shes the one who fell of the wagon in 18 doing CHA....)
I visited the Memorial on the lakefront again last week (friday). I was disappointed to see that there is still no place to park nearby. I have no problem walking a few blocks, but it would be nice if they could put in a pull off area for 2-3 cars with maybe 20 minute parking for the Memorial. That way the older and/or less ambulatory could pay a visit.
The Memorial is a great thing, but the location leaves much to be desired as to access. If your a boss with a company car, or politician with a driver, there's no problem. Millions have been raised and rightfully so; How about the city or park district putting in a small pull off area to park for a visit.
of the topic what happened in 008 saturday when a female p.o form 010 and her son got locked up.. by a sargeant..
This was my first ride. It was awsome to see all the police, fire, sheriff and non police come out and support this great cause. You couldn't have asked for better weather, too.
I met 2 couples from Colorado who were on vacation, heard about the ride at the last minute and signed up. Very nice people.
Although most people who saw us didn't know what we were doing (other than interrupting their Sunday morning commute) we were a site to behold. One family had pulled over on LSD, and the little kids were waving at us.
I was very proud to be the police Sunday morning. Thanks to all the people who put together this wonderful event. I can't wait 'til next year. But first I have to upgrade to a really loud Harley......my ears are still ringing.
Will they next year allow classic cars next year? Some were talking about it.
Thanks to everyone that rode in this event which helps support the Memorial and other worthy causes. Then I have to read the post under "Rescued by First Deputy" where someone said that the someone is trying to make people feel bad so they donate to the Michael P. Gordon Foundation. No one in this foundation makes money from it, the funds go back into police related areas, Examples Being: CPD Memorial, National Memorial, Cook County Memorial, COPS Organization, Scholarships and also the True Blue Award which honors Chicago Officers in Michael's name. Michael loved his job and we, his family, are fighting for better DUI Laws and getting people not to drive drunk. So, in defense of our Foundation, I am sorry you feel that way, maybe you should take your donation and bring it to church and light a candle for all the fallen officers across this nation. Thank you for the time and all those that support us.

Why cant these guys do this for mike mette?
We have motorcycle unit? Never see them out anywhere. BRing out the hogs for everyday use.

To all the bike riders, you look outstanding on those bikes, but please stay safe. I hate visiting coppers when they get banged up. Be careful and God bless you men and women.
nice ride everyone...
Back on topic......THANKS to all that participated.
OUR Thin Blue Line!!!
All those Police Officers and many will never get a Pension from our fine Pension Fund. What a waste.
what makes matters worse .....beat 811 calls a 10-1....a battery in-progress...one of the offenders caught pouring gas over a citizens car is getting is ass kicked...and here comes momma....an odpo (10 dist 2nd watch) to save the day....what does she do??? she lets the dog loose (a pitbull) on the 811/813...her shit bag son runs inside the house.....sarge on-scene..orders her to give up her son...she responds in her hill-billy way...and sure as shit begans fighting with the police....now she's in for obstruction/resisting.....and all the 1st watch will soon be called on the suit.(p.s.....shes the one who fell of the wagon in 18 doing CHA....)

NAME THE BITCH! WHERE WAS THIS AT? FUCK HER!
WHos the Off Duty copper that got SEISER locked up? Why isn't this PRO SEISER web site - not doing a thread on this? C'mon SCC......
I LEFT THE 23RD DIST AND I HAVE TO TELL YOU WHY. YOU ARE EITHER A DOG OR A WORKER AND THATS IT!! WE HAD A FEMALE P.O. ON DAYS WHO WAS AFRICAN AMERICAN AND SHE WOULD TRY TO TALK YOU OUT OF LOCKING UP ANY BLACK KID YOU HAD WITH ROCKS OR WEED OR THEFT. SHE ACTUALLY WROTE LETTERS ON BEHALF OF THE FAMILIES OF THOSE KIDS AND THE LETTERS WERE READ IN COURT BY THE PUBLIC DEFENDERS. SHE WOULD START THE LETTER WITH HER POLICE TITLE AND CITY OF CHICAGO AND THEN GO ON TO MAKE UP SOME SOB SHIT THAT WAS ALL BULLSHIT AND ON THREE OCCASIONS THE KID WAS FOUND NOT GUILTY BECAUSE OF HER INTRUDING.
THE BOSSES ALLOW DOGS TO STAY THERE BECAUSE THE BOSSES DON'T WANT TO OFFEND OR UPSET ANYONE. THE WORST BOSSES THERE ARE SGT B. K. A MAN WHO BELIEVES HIS OWN BULLSHIT. HE KNOWS BIG WORDS AND TRIES TO USE THEM WHEN TALKING DOWN TO ANYONE HE COMES IN CONTACT WITH. AS A SGT. YOU SHOULD RIDE ON JOBS AND STAND BACK UNTIL YOU ARE NEEDED BUT THIS MORON TAKES OVER THE SECOND HE SHOWS UP AND EMBARASSES THE BADGE. HE ESCALATES MORE SHIT THAT COULD EASILY BE A 19P OR A CONTACT CARD. SGT. K.S. IS RUDE, CRUDE AND CHEAP. COME ON!! YOU WORK IN 23!! FINALLY THE COMMANDER IS ANTI SOCIAL. HE HAS NEVER IN MY YEARS WORKING THERE EVER SAID A WORD TO ME EXCEPT "EXCUSE ME" WHEN HE WALKED PAST ME AND BUMPED INTO ME AFTER I HAD JUST GOTTEN BACK FROM MY GRANDFATHERS FUNERAL, I THOUGHT MAYBE HE WAS GOING TO SAY THAT HE HEARD ABOUT MY GRANDPA AND MAYBE SAY SOMETHING NICE BUT NO SUCH LUCK!! HE DOESN'T KNOW THE FIRST NAMES OF ANY COP EXCEPT MAYBE THOSE WHO WORK IN HIS OFFICE, ANY BOSSES AND HIS 4 GUYS ON THE WATCH. HOW HARD IS IT TO MEMORIZE A FEW NAMES WITH THEIR FACES. I WAS WORKING ONE NIGHT WHEN A THE CAPTAIN READ A HONORABLE MENTION AT ROLL CALL WITH THE COMMANDER THERE AND AFTER HE READ IT THE CAPTAIN SHOOK THE OFFICERS HAND AND THE COMMANDER JUST STOOD THERE AND SAID NOTHING, NO HAND SHAKE,COME ON!!! THE ONLY TIME WE EVER HEARD FROM THE COMMANDER IS WHEN WE WERE DOWN ON CONTACT CARDS OR MOVERS ETC... BUT WHEN WE DID A GOOD JOB WE ALMOST NEVER HEARD ANYTHING. I THINK HE COULD BE A DEPUTY SOME DAY AND PROBABLY WILL BUT TITLES ARE GIVEN AND RESPECT IS EARNED. THE COMMANDERS IN 3,4,9,10,11,13,15,18,24, ALL HAVE AN OPEN DOOR POLICY AND ARE ACTUALLY NICE TO TALK TO BECAUSE THEY KNOW OUR NAMES AND THEY DON'T RUSH US OUT OR PUT US IN THEIR SCHEDULE FOR 5 MINUTES. WE WANT TO WORK FOR GOOD BOSSES SO PLEASE START MAKING SOME.
JEALOUS BITCH

Bikes cause brain damage. Especially when you crash into bridges.

there is two hour free parking for visitors to Gold Star Park. It's on southside of Waldron the street at the south end of Soldier Field directly across from the south entrance to Gold Star Park
We have motorcycle unit? Never see them out anywhere. BRing out the hogs for everyday use.
THEY USE THEM FOR PARADES AND FUNERALS THATS IT, HAD THIS UNIT FOR YEARS. NEVER WILL SEE THAT IN MY LIFE TIME. 27 YEAR VET.
"I gotta laugh when I see cops dress up like the village people. "
Brilliant! I never thought about that...absolutely brilliant!
It was a great ride for all the right reasons. I have one question. Why cant us coppers who are ALIVE and working be treated as well as the ones who have fallen.
How about some respect for us doing it now day in and day out.
God bless us all.
I hope we have twice as many next year.

What a foolish and selfish statement to address. Sir, you and those like you are the problem with today's CPD. If you have to ask for respect you probably don't deserve it. Do the job that the fallen can no longer do and shut the fuck up. Goof!
ANOTHER JEALOUS ONE ,YOU PROBABLY PUT IN FOR TRU AND SOS AND WERE DENIED AS WELL. VILLAGE PEOPLE NOT, THOSE ARE YOUR CO-WORKERS,YOU PIECE OF SHIT CUBS FAN,NORTHSIDE LIBERAL, PARKING TICKET WRITING BITCH WITH YOUR TWO YEARS ON AND MAD CAUSE YOU HAVENT GOTTEN PROMOTED. PEACE BABY
