Cougar Comments
You can hop over to the Tribune or the Sun Times and check some some truly ignorant comments. Ignorant not just from the standpoint that we (the police) should have snuggled the cute little pussy cat, found it a nice warm saucer of milk and maybe a small yuppie child to sate its hunger prior to finding it a fully furnished condo in Lincoln Park zoo, but ignorant in how the City and its different departments operate. A few points:
- One of the comments asks why Animal Control wasn't called to take the cougar into custody. Animal Control is lucky to have two trucks up at any given time. Response times in our experience run from 5 hours to 3 days. And even if they show up with a tranquilizer gun, there's only one dosage for the dart - FATAL. You read that correctly. Animal Control only uses one dosage because to do otherwise might aggravate the animal beyond all control or unduly inflict pain. So to keep it simple for the Animal Control idiots, they only overdose animals. Daley's first round of budget cuts destroyed Animal Control years ago, leaving them undermanned, under equipped and full of incompetent political hacks - but who's going to complain? The dogs and cats?
- Someone else bitched that after the recent pit bull attack of a woman by five strays, those dogs are in the pound and why aren't the police killing those dogs? Newsflash! CPD kills upwards of fifty, sometimes more dogs a year on the street, all without incident, news coverage or wounded bystanders. A certain new Captain was famous for it in a number of districts. Isn't a situation that ends with no civilians hurt, no cops hurt and only a completely replaceable air conditioning unit damaged something that ought to be chalked up as a win?
This is the public we've sworn to serve? That we're supposed to protect from not only four legged animals, but the two legged ones that will rob, rape, steal and kill them without a second thought? No wonder Daley is in a stuttering panic - his media puppets are raging out of control over a freaking cougar and it's making the citizenry edgy.

I think we would just be better off if all you cops who want to be Dirty Harry stay out of our quiet Roscoe Village neighborhood.
Sweet Jeezus, SCC! Since 2030 hrs. tonight, there have been
no less than 10 shootings across the city, including one definite homicide, and another one possible from 004. WTF are we gonna do when it really gets nice out? And there's no more school for the summer? Any suggestions? Should we all just pack up and head for the hills with our individual arsenals? Any suggestions?

....and it's just past midnite...still early on this middle of the week "night of a thousand drive-bys."
Animal Care & Control is a joke.I called 311 for a trap and was told there is a 4 week waiting list.
These people are all soft! I can't believe King Dick was on the news defending us!
I could have sworn I heard the cat yelling "thunder....thunder", then bang.....all was quiet.
Snarf
They should have called Bemis.
In the summmer of 2003, one of my weird neighbors kept 2 animals, similar to baboons, in his apartment. I remember running into him twice in the alley, with those creatures, not knowing he lived in my building and just thinking I had a bit too much to drink on the way home.
I found out later that he always took them out "for walks" late at night, so no one would see. On one of those nights, one of his monkeys (I'll call them monkeys 'cause I don't remember what breed of simian it was) ran off. Instead of calling the police, he left his back door open, thinking the monkey would come home. Well, it did, but to the wrong apartment.
When another of my neighbors opened his back door the next morning, the thing attacked him and tore up half of his apartment before it ran back out the door. The police were called and the chase was on.
That damn thing bent car antennas, climbed up on roofs, hissed and snarled at everyone and ran all over the neighborhood. The little kids thought it was funny.
When animal control finally showed up, the guy, who was as old as Methuselua, took a shot at the monkey and almost hit the sergeant instead. The thing was finally caught many hours later.
Fortunately, no one was hurt and a believe the monkeys were eventually turned over to a wildlife preserve. I still think my neightbor, who was promptly evicted, was having sex with those things.
Wake up people, these are wild animals, not house pets. The coppers by my house acted with restraint, but simians of all types have been known to attack, maim and kill people.
For once, the mighty midget said something that made sense when he said if that if the police hadn't killed the cougar and it attacked a child, the parents would sue the city.
It amazes me every day how some people managed to grow up so stupid.
the real question is: are there more out there?
tired of libtards wrote:
do you people have any clue what animal control does? even if they would have responded in a timely manner, (which never happens) the poor little cougar was still a goner. you roscoe village idiots have known about this thing being out there for weeks, why didn't you speak up then? instead, do what you do best, hide your head in the sand until the police are forced to do their job. also, if all of you liberal f**ks don't like the police, hire your own security. police have a job because of people like you. victims until the end. clueless morons who keep advocating for the criminals. and david cerda, are you mad there's not going to be any money in it for you when you sue the police. get a life.

If you ever doubted that being liberal is a form of mental illness, these comments should clear up that issue for you once and for all. Although I must admit, he would have been great to use for crowd control...
All i know is some very creative people are going to make a lot of money with T-shirts...
I just was reading the comments on Topix, under the thread "shooting justified" good god do we live amoung idiots!!
Homicides are coming at a better rate than j-fed and his band of misfits indicting police officers. Its gonna be a fun summer. Why should we work when it seems that we stand a better chance of getting indicted than of getting an award. I'll write the report and fax to the detectives. Thanks, on to the next homicide. This is what daley asked for, now lets see ho happy he is !
My favorite was the lady in charge of the Humane Society saying we should carry tranquilizers.
Lady, I cannot even get a computer in my sqaudcar, let alone a taser, rifle, etc.
We'll get RIGHT on your tranquilizers.
SCC,
Instead of the cap n gown photo, you should put the cougar's face on the "Don't shoot, I want to live" posters.
Thanks CPD.
Nice to see you couldn't even LET us take the heat for a day.
Three cops indicted.
Love always, CFD
O.T.
After reading the stories of how the CTA riders were evacuated from the subway I am confident we're prepared for any disaster..lol
Let's not get too bent out of shape about this. We'll have to remember how the liberals think.
They don't have a plan for anything. Just "good intentions." The only thing that they know how to do, since they have no real plans for anything based in reality, is is criticize the work of others. That way they can sound important at cocktail parties where they bad mouth their country and criticize everything about America so they can get laid by other idiots who think that's cool.
The only plans they have are ones that don't work. Communism. Great plan. Doesn't work. Disarm the police. Great plan. Doesn't work. Wild predatory animal that kills by ambush roaming through areas with lots of kids? Get out the special unit that carries the tranquilizer darts and nets so that the poor creature can be painlessly captured and go live in peace in the woods when released (Paul McCartny singing "Ebony and Ivory" in the background.) Great plan. Not reality.
Don't be angry with them. Pity them and make fun of them for being the idiots that they are. I, for one, find them very amusing. Try throwing facts at them. That really pisses them off. It's great entertainment. I love talking to liberal retards and seeing them get all flustered when you bring up facts that they can't spin. You should try it. It's more fun than messing with hood rats.
Oh, and I left you with a couple of typos so that you'll have something to criticize and feel better about yourselves for being so much smarter than me.
But did you see the Mayor on the news? He said I didn't see any of the neighbors out hugging the Cougar. You have to find the clip!
The cat was probably lurking the area in search of a female mate. We should have tossed him one of our pussy supervisors.
When I came on the job we had the shotguns in the front seat with us until Jesse jagoff complained then they made us place them in the trunk then they put them in the radio rooms then they took them away . If one car would have had a shotgun it would have been one shot one kill with the 00 Buck load. Also Fuck all you die hard liberals that wanted the polce to hug the cat instead of shooting it.
Who is this guy V. Bilicki that Deep Throat Tommy brought with him to the airport. He makes Donny Barrett look like a brain surgeon. This guys is s complete jerk-off. Why do all the bosses need a full time police officer to run their errands. I hear Bilicki has bounced around headquarters for his whole career bootlikcing his way from one boss to another.
Bottom line: new boss, same as the old boss.
Capparelli was asked point blank at the meeting yesterday what was going on with his removal from the designation of field rep.
He sidestepped the question and simply said he was going to be working at a Detective Area very soon but would continue to perform his duties as Treasurer.
He is no longer working in the FOP office but presumably will be working as a detective. And I guess as Treasurer on the side.
Rich Aguilar will be coming inside to work in the FOP office.
Does anyone know what is up with this?
When the membership does not know rumors start and we are left to wonder, what the hell happened?
How would civilians know about budget cuts & Animal Control? My first thought was why were they called @ 11am and police response wasn't until after 5pm?
It's your spokesperson who should be throwing out that fact let alone what had to be used and why in this incident.
Your department does an extremely poor job in this way let alone no communication/relationship with civilians. My cousin has his sheriffs dept setup where civilians can login, get crime alerts, submit a non-emergency report, submit crime tips, etc. Chicago needs to get with the times.
*************ALERT*****************
Just read todays sun-times, front page big print about another Chicago cop indicted! turn to page #3 and the story of 3 total indicted thanks to asa's! Again take this from a KMA member if your young, have college go to a progressive dept, that respects its officers! Make sure every arrest is totally proper, take your time with all paperwork dot all i's and cross every t! They are gunning for police and we have zero support system! WTF! Be careful back each other up, that is all! proactive is just the name of an acne medicine for me now! Thanks for destroying a once proud dept from the top down! daley and company have really made this dept a shit hole! How many more will they indict for bullshit?
When a police involved shooting occurs, it all boils down to public relations and perception. Nobody cares about a gangbanger's pit bull, or for that matter, the gangbanger himself. Only the "civil rights shakedown artists" care, and thats at election time. Then they retreat to thier beer distributorship and Tinley Park pasonage. When a beautiful, majestic puddy cat is killed, it will evoke sympathy and generate news. Remember the loop coyote? Everyone grew up watching Marlin Perkins Wild Kingdom
Chicago Police lingo word of the day: FINNA- definition: a word used meaning that you plan on doing something. In reality, if the person uses the word "finna" they have no intention whatsoever on carry out their claim. Example: I finna go sign up for this job, or finna go back to school.
IAD in 017 District today writing down plates off of officers personal vehicles. What the fuck is going on???
Mr. SouthSide says---
That cougar was pretty smart staying up north with all you liberals.
Down here in the real part of town we would have skinned it and had a bbq.
They should have called Bemis.
4/16/2008 12:23:00 AM
LMAO--I thought the same thing!
I just saw the Fox News video of the cougar shooting. Did anyone else notice that there is a officer sprinting the other way as officers are shooting at the cougar? Also, isn't it sad the media can beat Animal Control to the scene to film this without having emergency equipment.
John Cougar Mellencamp says---
Now you guys did it.
I'm a retired suburban cop. I remember we had the dart gun and we'd always mix our own darts, each dart was mixed to bring down 500 pound dogs. Moral of the story was, "Don't let your dog get out without a collar."

so you're not even including all the people that got shot before 2030 hrs? i guess it's safe to assume that between 15apr08 0001 hrs and 16apr08 0830 hrs that there was at least 20 shootings
Could you imagine the outcry if this was a black panther?
Does the timing of these two news articles have a certain thing in common ?
Three police officers indicted .
Court upholds Daley cronies conviction .
Hmmm....I wonder

This neighbor lady and the mayor (go figure) make the case for common sense re: the Cougar:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WuB0Koi0OvU
I some citizens ask me while I was getting coffee at the start of my tour why animal control wasn't utilized. I explained to them that this city's version is nothing like the shows they see on Animal Planet. The vehicles I have seen on calls only have they dog catch sticks in them, and a cage. No nets, tranq guns, sedatives, etc. I remember asking them once if they ever carried tranquilizers, and he told me "sometimes the supervisor does, if we have to take them down that's what you are here for."
Then I reminded the citizens that this is not California, Nevada, or the Dakotas, where this incident is something that happens on a semi-regular basis and they are prepared for such. We deal with dogs, cats, raccoons, and the occaisional coyote.
They then said they didn't realize this, and understood better that what was done had to be done. They saw that the media spin, and the publics' perception of things due to television doesn't pertain in all situations.
I felt good enough after this enlightening chat with the public that I got an event number for foot patrol/community relations mission.
Check out the story of Antoine Yates from the projects on 141st St. in Harlem.
NYPD responded to his apt. after he walked in to a hospital claiming he was bitten by a pit bull.
Animal lover Yates was housing his "pet" Ming, a 400 pound Siberian Bengal tiger mix and an alligator. Last I heard, Ming is now living in a big cat conservatory in Ohio.
The NYPD Emergency Service Unit brought Ming down with two tranquilizer darts after rappelling down the side of Yates' PJ and firing through the window at the tiger. ESU also had the luxury of waiting outside until Ming collapsed inside the apt.
Considering the circumstances in Chicago, ESU would have shot and killed the cougar, ideally with a rifle. Such a wild animal could cause injuries, even deaths, in an open area before falling to tranquilizer darts.
Doesn't the CPD have rifles, shotguns and fully automatic weapons available in all pcts. and detective squads?
If not, your mgmt. hasn't learned from incidents like the Bank of America shootout in North Hollywood. It was a miracle that no LAPD MOS were killed.
Is it true that you guys have to live within the city limits? That's insane.
Like Chicago, the NYPD can no longer recruit qualified new jacks. Everybody wants out.
The job is as dead as your cougar.
Twenty and out or a straitjacket.
Younger guys should go for a career change before it's too late.
By reading your blog, it sounds like the G-man is in way over his head. What was he thinking?
I think we would just be better off if all you cops who want to be Dirty Harry stay out of our quiet Roscoe Village neighborhood.
I agree with you, we would just call the CFD when your little area burns to the ground, you liberal pukes.
You guys should have captured Mr. Big Puddy Cat and donated him to United Airlines. Chinese Government inspectors found eight mice, including some live ones and droppings on a United Airlines Boeing 777. The rodents were found living in pillows in the passenger cabin. The flight was from Washington, DC.
Waiting for the "cub in cap and gown" photo. That cougar was just innocently minding his own cat business. PO should have called a Sgt to tazer the "poor animal" ... you heartless bastards!
off topic - add 3400 N. Laramie in 016 to the list of homicides ...
while i'm not elated that the creature had to be destoyed, anyone who would second guess those officers is either a fkn idiot or typical "don't have a fkn clue" liberal! it's the same rich liberals building their million dollar mansions and clearing all the wild habitat causing these animals to start seeking new areas to live. the reason the cat probably came south is because of the MILLION fkn deer roaming everywhere because these same liberals don't want "bambi" hunted and the herd culled. i want to COMMEND the officers who tracked and took that cat down with these "pea shooting" sidearms we have to carry. it usually takes a high powered rifle to take one down w/o it charging. you guys stood your ground and did what we are paid to do, risk our own lives for the very same assholes who can't wait to bash us for doing this shit thankless job. glad you're all safe fellas.
those fkn liberals bashing you guys should have been put in a backyard with it. when it fkn bit and crushed their, or one of their kids throats, then let's see how much of a "kitty-cat" they think it was! typical "damned if we do, damned if we don't" bullshit. man, if i didn't get such a laugh out of listening to their warped tree-hugging bullshit, i'd puke!
and to that ignorant, liberal sun-times fk neil steinberg (pg 20, today) i didn't see your fkn ass out there saying here kitty-kitty and offering it some fancy feast!
file a lawsuit agains the city and animal control. maybe it will bring attention to the fact that animal control operates at a 40%level with manpower, equipment and facilities from what it should be for the size of this city and the amount of people, the amount of pets and amount of trees and parks in Chicago. Leave the police out of it. They did what had to be done and did a great job. You would be screaming a different tune if a small child or even somebodys pet got grabbed by the cougar.
"I hear Bilicki has bounced around headquarters for his whole career bootlikcing his way from one boss to another."
It all began when he was Joe DeLopez's right hand man.
Apparently a seasoned sukhole is hard to come by these days??
zone 12 (025 015)combined will have the most homicides this year and I love it! Zone 12 is by far the busiest zone.
My concern, was any animal life endangered in these ten shootings?
I think the 19th Dist. citizens should reclaim the mountain lion, and have it mounted in the 19th District lobby as a gift to the Officers who pursued the animal.
Cougar? Giggity- giggity-goo, heh heh, alllright.
"his media puppets are raging out of control over a freaking cougar and it's making the citizenry edgy."
The Trib's FRONT page story is all about how experts say police did the right thing, and you still blame the media.

If you promise to stop calling 911/311 you have a deal.
Good Luck.
None of this need have happened if only they had flown Jimmy Carter back here to talk the cougar into a peaceful coexistence with mankind.
Didn't Chicago cops working overnights in the good old days get marching orders, in certain districts, to shoot every dog they found wandering around on the street, and just leave the body lying there?
A way to take care of the strays, and at the same time send a message to the other dogs roaming around out there. And their owners.

I agree. So please don't dial 911 when you're robbed, burglarized, raped, assaulted, or battered. Handle your own problems, goof.
2 of the 3 coppers that were indicted are from 008th district where i had the pleasure of working with them. i can tell you that both are great guys. How many times can u write in an arrest report EXACTLY what happened?laws areFOR the mutt criminals so we have been forced for years to be creative with our writing. Now we are being FUCKING INDICTED for locking up bad guys? Seriously, lets do exactly what the city wants. Be safe guys, write the paper exactly word for word how it happened. Yes everything will be thrown out and the city will be like Detroit by 2010, but who gives a fuck. Get your pension and move to a more conservative state where common sense may still prevail. These 2 coppers did exactly what thousands of us have been doing daily to put the bad guys behind bars and now THEY face 5yrs? Come on, STOP fucking doing police work. I dont care how cool you think u are and how badly u want to be the police. Is it worth going to prison for and leaving your kids behind? This world we live in today is not at all common sense smart. The bad guy is the winner and we as people who have been raised to know right from wrong are the ones being punished. Wake up guys, its not worth it. This shitty city IS NOT WORTH IT! if you chase a guy and he drops the dope 4 blocks from where u get him just write it that way. if the gun is 5 yards from where he dropped it and you didnt actually see it falling from his hand write it that way. FUCK IT! Let the city burn. Let the ghetto rats have their way and shoot each other, as long as its not in my neighborhood, I dont care anymore. To many great coppers are getting jammed trying to make good arrests in the ghetto where really and truly it doesnt fucking matter.
Why didn't those cops try their pepper spray or baton or a paw wrist lock? This is another example of the failure of the police academy. What about verbal judo?

Local officials have countered that the family cooked-up this notion that Cox was attacked by a cougar to shield themselves from civil litigation and possible criminal charges.

I'm a dispatcher. At one of my prior depts, (in a fairly hi-tone Western suburb) this was a typical call:
911 caller: There's a WOLF sitting on my front lawn!!!
me: No sir, that's a coyote. We have lots of them around here. They are relatively harmless. Just don't let any smaller dogs outside until he leaves.
caller: I'm telling you, that's a WOLF. Get somebody over here!!
me: Sir, there are no wolves in this part of the country. What you are looking at is a coyote. They are very shy and afraid of humans as a rule. He will probably take off running the minute he sees you, so no need to panic.
caller: It's a WOLF!!!
me: OK, so it's a wolf. What's your house made of?
caller: What?!!
me: If it's brick, you should be safe. If it's made of straw, THEN you should be worried...

I hope that every single one of those victims got a copy of their Victim Information Notice.
I also certainly hope that every single case report included the victim and witnesses' original statements, "F#ck you, I didnt see nutin." That way the case is permanently shitcanned.
Keep everything above board!

message to : Tiger Woods...better stay out of Rosco Village.
Shootings are skyrocketing...
We better get in shape and stop drinking off duty thats where the problem lies...
Also we need to come up with about 10 more missions that well save anyhting...
Lets see...
We all know that you have to shoot a Cougar you cant let it run amok until Jaques Custeau and the Crocodile hunter come and tame it....
but does anyone actually believe the cougar "lunged" at the officers? If a cougar truly lunged it would be on the officers jugular before his hand can even begin to twitch for his gun...
can you say rule 14 violation?
Who is this guy V. Bilicki that Deep Throat Tommy brought with him to the airport.
He's a shit in the pants.Came on CPD from Glenview PD,did his recruit training in the old Marquette district.Was definately afraid of the street,my partner had him one night and told him they were going into Ogden Courts (now torn down)to see if the can catch pookie with a gun.He got physically sick and went home,refused to get out of the car,would'nt back my partner up.His wife is his clout she was wired in with DeLopez,I think she's a sgt somewhere inside.Delopez got him some B.S. donothing job in the academy.Couple of the Marquette guys were at the academy for IST and saw his name on his office door.They took the name tag off his door and glued it to the toilet seat in the mens (010)bathroom.Everytime you took a dump,you did it on V.B.I think they even took a picture and sent it to him.He was "NEVER" the police!
"I just saw the Fox News video of the cougar shooting. Did anyone else notice that there is a officer sprinting the other way as officers are shooting at the cougar?"
-------------------
So what's up with that ??

Chicago Police lingo word of the day: FINNA- definition: a word used meaning that you plan on doing something. In reality, if the person uses the word "finna" they have no intention whatsoever on carry out their claim. Example: I finna go sign up for this job, or finna go back to school.

Lady,
I want to work in suburban Barrington hills where the cops don't have guns and just jump out from behind the bushes with their hand held radar units but my clout won't let me leave the city at election time!!!
I read the posts on Topix and argued today with a couple of dense City workers who didn't get it about how the cougar situation was handled.
The officers that responded to the call were put in grave danger from this predator. Mountain lions are dangerous and will attack without hesitation. Those who responded and took the animal out have my deepest respect and admiration. All of you should be commended for your bravery.
It's a miracle that no one was injured or killed by the roving cougar. The animal was killed and no injuries to officers or citizens alike. I'd say this was an excellent outcome.
I'm a lifetime Sierra Club member and have hiked in numerous national parks and forests. The one animal that I fear encountering the most is a mountain lion. I don't live too far from where the animal was taken down, I certainly wouldn't have wanted to encounter it. I'm an animal lover, but realistic and realize how unpredictable and dangerous big cats are.
Thank you officers for a job well done.
It wasn't even the cougar from up north, residents from Wilmette saw it today.
Get your trank gun ready. I could just see someone getting shot in the neck like in old school.
How about the old cougar from the Humane Society beefing about the police. Looks like she's been in a cage too long herself.
Da mayor loves shit like this- distracts all the morons to think about stupid crap to occupy the public while he's reaching into their pockets for a money grab.
These people are out of their fucking minds. Why don't we drop off some feral cats in Roscoe Village and sit back and wait for the calls of "Puma sightings" to come in. IT WAS A COUGAR YOU NITWITS! Those police on the scene deserve whatever the highest award for bravery is. In all honesty, I'd have been running so fast in the other direction that I would have been kicking my own ass in with my feet. Hats off to you officers. Excellent job.
The Trib's FRONT page story is all about how experts say police did the right thing, and you still blame the media.
TWO DAYS after the fact. Maybe you missed the 400 comments ripping the police for shooting the lovely kitty cat.
1st the cougar
then the Blue line screw-up
and here come the summer shootings
and still no contract!
Bye Bye Olympics!
Hey, this isn't the murder capital of the world for nuthin.
Still have my pin and wear it proudly.
Officers please pay close attention to the media and the comments by the public. This should serve all of us as a warning of how the general public feels about the police. If they are criticizing us for killing a wild animal in a residential neighborhood what do you think they would say if this was a human offender of some kind. Nobody cares about us except us. Stop the nitpicking, watch each others back, stay safe and go home to your family every night. God bless all of us. A concerned P.O.
P.S. Nice job by the officers of the 019th district. Ignore all the nonsense.
Cougar gone
Olympics dead
Funeral announcements for David Cerda, Shark/attorney. Formerly of Roscoe village. Died suddenly in cougar mauling. Funeral held 19 april at 50 w washington, lower level mens restroom. Died suddenly as he was attempting to entice a lost cougar into his home. He was viciously mauled by the 150 lb cougar in front of children and reverends. The Cougar immediatley became sick and puked up his liberal ass. Tragically the cougar also died as the result of ingesting a deadly poison. A full military funeral will be held for the cougar for his brave action and ridding the community of a predatory shark/lawyer. god bless the cpd.
IT WAS A COUGAR YOU NITWITS! Those police on the scene deserve whatever the highest award for bravery
EASY THERE!!!
It was a nice job, yes. they WILL get a Department Commendation, ALL of them, b/c it was up north.
Highest award??? No way! A D/C is just fine, leave the valor awards for when you are getting shot at, shot, or stabbed...and hopefully it will not come to that, but that is bravery.
Or when you kill a man armed with a rubber on his pee-pee
NYPD at 10:05 AM
How did Yates keep a 400 pound tiger in a housing project? It's not like he could take Ming out for a walk on a leash. A "litter box" would have to be the size of a dumpster. Perhaps the stench went unnoticed in the Harlem projects.
That's an incredible story. It's all true per Google.
WAKEUP!!!
LOOK AT WHAT THESE LIBERAL POLICE HATERS ARE POSTING ON YOUTUBE ON THE COUGAR KILLING:

bamato405 (23 hours ago) Show Hide -2 Marked as spam Reply Please call The Chicago Police aka COWARDS at this number 312-744-5983, and tell them shooting that animal and killing it was a cowardly act!
Looked real stupid on the News, should have just gotten some Tact; Gang, Swat or Dicks with shotguns loaded with slugs, would have taken out that Cougar faster than those pop-gun auto pistols. In the old days we would have just sent Rex Hayes, and that would have been the end of it right there. He probably would have also taken out Seiser while he was up there too, just for a little extra R&R.
BTW,
JUST FINISHED WATCHING THE VIDEO OF THE COUGAR EPISODE IN 019. THOSE COPPERS DID ONE HELL OF A JOB,BIGGER BALLS THAN "HOG BALLS BILL BEAVERS",LOL...
CONGRATULATIONS ON A GREAT JOB!!!
THAT ONE TACT GUY WAS VERY LUCKY,HE COULD HAVE BEEN COUGAR DINNER.
Does anyone recall the liberal PETA goof that decided to pet the endangered,sleeping gray wolf at the Brookfield Zoo several years back?
Real smart animal lover that she was,she pets the gray wolf,by sticking her arm through the bars. The wolf wakes up,thinks it is being attacked and takes her arm off. Brookfield PD are called and have to kill an endangered animal to attempt to retrieve her arm.
Bottomline,the liberal idiot caused the death of an endangered gray wolf while loosing her arm and putting policemen in harms way.
Hey,the liberals are the intellectuals though,LMAO!!!
VOTE CONSERVATIVE!!!
bad idea firing all those pistol shots around, also not effective enough. Should have been handled with an evil hunting rifle and one skilled rifleman.
Those coppers should secure permission and get that cat mounted. What a war trophy that would be in a copper bar.
Damn,I am so politically incorrect thinking of copper bars,war trophies and mounting defenseless animals while offending liberals.
In New York City, this would have been a SWAT callout. Agitated pit bulls, escaped zoo animals, territorial raccoons...call the guys with body armor and assault rifles. Just don't be the copper who calls ESU to handle a pissed-off housecat, or people will laugh at you for years.
I would have captured it and let it loose on some real predators by releasing it in 011. Oh,the poor,poor cougar.
The poor cougar wouldn't stand a chance on the Westside. Packs of roaming ghetto dogs can barely survive and I have seen packs of 15+ varied and large dogs.
The real savage is capable of destroying/killing anything!!!
....."In the old days we would have just sent Rex Hayes, and that would have been the end of it right there"....
Shit, Rex Hayes would have looked at the cat, cat would have said "Sorry Sir", and cleard off HIS corner! Or Rex would have beaten that little kitty to death with his stick! "Company gives me a stich, dammit I'm going to use it!" Rex was one damn good cop!
Now, is the same kind of cat they use to make chinese food? Can't they donate it to a restaurant full of illegals? Now we killed two birds with one stone, so to speak.
Let the city burn. Let the ghetto rats have their way and shoot each other, as long as its not in my neighborhood, I dont care anymore. To many great coppers are getting jammed trying to make good arrests in the ghetto where really and truly it doesnt fucking matter.
---------------------------
So it seems. What about the young guys that fuck it up by working? Oh wait, in 5 years they'll be in front of a judge in cuffs.
OK, another typical West Suburban call:
911 caller: There's a hawk (downtown area) eating a squirrel!!
me: Yeah, well, that's what they do...
caller: But the children will be getting out of school! Can't you make it go away?!!
me: Lady, any kid who decides to mess with a hawk while it's having lunch, deserves what he or she gets! Teach your kids to leave the wildlife alone!
'click'
Caling animal care and control is a joke. They have very limited resources that cannot and never have responded in a timely manner. They are good people with good intentions but they just cannot respond to an emergency situation in a timely manner.
The officers did the right thing and anyone in their right mind should find no fault in their actions. Cougars are unpredictable wild life. That animal was in a neighborhood with children, how dare anyone judge those officers for putting not only their safety ay risk but ensuring that someones child was not cougar food. Do people understand its not like catching a dog or a cat, those cougars are extemely agile and fast. Those officers were lucky that that cougar was probably tired and they were able to shoot it. It is unfortunate that they had to kill the beautiful animal but peoples safety takes priority over a killer cougar.
I want to say thank you to those officers for keeping the neighborhood safe.
I have seen animal control use 4 darts to bring down a pitbull, how the hell or how may darts do you think they would have needed to bring down a big healthy cougar? They don't carry enough. Thank God the right officers were there and did their job.
Thank you to the officers that did what they had to do.
Is it true that the cougar yelled, "Don't tranquilize me, bro."
The cougar did not have to be shot.All offices had to do was toss some flammin hot cheese puffs and grape soda to the kitty.The feline would have passed out due to diabetic shock.
Captain Cindy rocks!
I think we would just be better off if all you cops who want to be Dirty Harry stay out of our quiet Roscoe Village neighborhood.

Hey fuck ball... remember that when a 2 - legged "animal" comes in your house and rapes your wife in front of you & your children!!!! we'll just take our time gettin there and let you handle it!!!!! enjoy the show asshole!!!!
Chicago Police phrase for the day: wig split. Ex. He got his wig split during a fight with ole boy. Definition: Being struck on the head,thereby causing blood to flow. If glue mixes with blood in the case of a female victim,and the weave comes out it becomes aggravated.
CONGRATULATIONS ON A GREAT JOB!!!

That was an animal control officer not CPD
Seiser would have wrestled that cougar to the ground, jumped on its back, and rode it like a bucking bronco until it was tame.
He would then take it home and given it a basketball to play with all day.
the 8th district did a search warrant at the house on richmond where the 5 attack pitbulls lived. the owner lives there with his parents that don't speak english and his brother that sells weed with him. you won't see that on the news though.
Hey I once killed two deer with a club!
Of course there were twenty of us in the club.
Hey Conservatards - This Cougar-gate thing is ridiculous. This poor displaced animal - an endagered species no less - was treated with less respect and concern than we treat gang bangers wayward pit bulls. Animal control SHOULD have been called and this poor lost animal should have been tranq'd, brought to our lovely yuppie zoo and then re-introduced into the wild. Geez, if you're so desperate to use your gun spend some more time on the range. For Pete's sake - what's next??? We're going to be given orders to shoot Pandas? Gray Wolves? Bald Eagles? Or some other animal on the soon to be extinct list?

I like oatmeal. It's good for you.
