On behalf of this joyous occasion,
the "openly cellphone yaking"
alderman would like to donate a 2 hour pass to the ward steambath for #3 million.
The pass includes fantasy options:
the gladiator, servant boy, even
Caligula!
SCC, your actually becoming mainstream.........................
Wouldn't have been nice if you were getting 1 dollar per visit?
Congratulations.
I really enjoy this site. It helps to make me laugh and relieve stress
Congratulations SCC
It does my heart good to see that this blog has generated a loyal following, and can still serve (and protect) our readership, even those journalists who are too lazy to do their own legwork for a story.
"As long as some men labour, and others benefit from the fruits of that labour, the name Spartacus shall be spoken, sometimes softly and other times loudly from on high."
Congrats SCC! I am a working tactical officer in 006. The new guys and girls brought in back are some the laziest do-nothings I have ever had the displeasure of working with. Who the fuck put these worthless po's on our teams? Come on Glenn, these were your picks???
They are fucking ruining a good thing! These shit for brains po's are horrible!
Congrats SCC !!!!
I'm retired since 01' but love to "hear" whats going on.
Thanks !!!!!

CONGRATS.....keep up the good work.
well its been me t$#SEE Y$#$%%^e who has visited 2,999,999 times
Well done SSC, Here's to a least 3 more.
Off Topic-Whats the fallout from 60 Min? Has Matt T Toby Tobias been seen changing into his CTA Uniform to play Robin next to Batman Hubberman?
Crimefile's Paul Huebl says that felony gun charge against Dennis Farina was dropped. He's not yet out of the woods on a misdemeanor.
While congratulations are certainly in order, I think we all owe a debt of gratitude to your wife and children. The time you spend moderating this board must be difficult to balance with family life and work and you probably couldn't do it without their support. So how about it SCC, from one of your female fans, why don't you post a nice big romantic thank you to your wife!
You can see the doc meeting by logging onto clear. Then click on gangs/deployment operation center then click on search level 2 recommended deployment. There are reports and even video the doc meeting.
Does anybody have that chicken wing recipe that was posted a couple of thanksgivings ago?
Congrats to the son of the "GALLOWS" you make your father proud!
Looking at the big picture SCC, I truly believe that this web site most certainly has had a impact within our department. Some good, some not so good.
Anyway, from the 25th District Gallows to this modern technology, ROCK ON!
OFF TOPIC But definitely a great column. Enter Thomas Sowell, then punch in current & archived columns then columns and the article he wrote titled "The Bullet Counters" Great column on monday morning quarterbacking on police shootings. Read the entire thing and especially the last paragraph where he iterates what has been said here a hundred times. The people pay because the Police rightfully back off of proactive police work when their actions can lead to bullshit charges.

so these people are messing up the teams that Doty and O' Donnel put together that made 006 tact #1 in the city. Gee whiz but now he is sinking 021? I don't think so. The first mistake the new boss in 021 made is dumping Sgt. j. kubick. The second was to put G. Evans in charge. How many more will he make?
"The Box Chevy Phantom" says...
Congratulations and a job well done SCC! Keep up the good work... You, Keesing Bandit, Northside and the other regulars have provided a sorely needed medium in giving the voiceless a means to shout loudly and be heard. Here's to many more years of stirring the pot & a raised cup of coffee to ya! (too early for the booker's & coke my friend!)
"pea soup green box chevy w/1 whitewall tire, clear plastic on the rear window,for sale sign & 4 diff. hubcaps for $5 from maxwell st... 'oh shit you're the police?'"
Congrats SCC
Just Wondering.
What Did The "Little Dick", Jfed,The Toddler, The Storefront Revs & The Honor Students Give You For a Present??
What Do You Think They would REALLY Want To Give Ya ??
I'll Give You KUDOS For Your Fine Verbiage In Rattling The Cages Of The "Clouted Inept" & Corrupt Aldercrooks With The Truth, with a Little Sarcasm & Silliness Mixed In.
Ya Better Get A Big Cake At Least from The Lazy A$$e$ At The Scum Times For Plagarizing The Postings From Here
Congratulations Ofc. SCC. You get a lot of flack from many others about this blog. They seem to feel what happens in the CPD should stay in the CPD.
I think it is long over due that someone pulled the shades up and let some sunlight in. Sunlight is the best disenfectent.
As previously posted, this blog serves to give some officers a place to vent and a place to come for retired officers.
It is astounding how much time you devote to the CPD and this. That's close to two full time jobs, one of which you're not paid for at all and the other which you're barely paid for ,all things considered.
I ask the blue readership of this blog to remember there are millions of Chicagoians that respect the job you men and women do. I believe we are a majority. We realize that without you there is a thin red line between law and order an anarchy the likes of which you see in places like Iraq where bands of religious gang-bangers control parts of Iraqi cities.
THIS city needs a surge to stop gang bangers from shooting Chicagoans.
Will the god damn liberals let you guys do your job!
I digress.
Thanks again Ofc. SCC. Happy Birthday!

FANTASTIC job scc!! I know you don't like capital letters. But lower case letters wouldn't do you justice.

Wake up you moron. They just need bodies to fill the empty spaces. It's "detail" season. Quit your bitchin' and just worry about you and your partner PERIOD!!!
Keep up the good work. I enjoy reading about that I'm not the only one that has asshole incompetant bosses. I'm not the only one that see through all the smoke and mirrors that the dept and city dishes out. I continue to get a good laugh everytime I visit and I catch up on all the new gossip in this soap opera department of ours.

Aw guy give 'em a chance. Everybody's not cut out to be a ghetto superhero like you Tactman! Give the newbies the chance to learn how to find one baggers, run from gang bangers, take two hour lunches, whine like self entitled spoiled babies, run out the back door three hours early to hit the bar so they can brag about being the REAL police in a REAL police district! Then they'll be just like YOU!
If you guys spent less time on this blog ( Congrats SCC)and the bars and more time on the street, your stats would'nt suck and new guys would'nt be heading to the back.
More POLICING LESS WHINING!

Little Mat is a Daley Juice guy. All the illegal shit he has done will NOT damage him. The lord and king of this corrupt city is Daley .

After 35 years of service, Sam Christian is retiring. If your schedule permits, please join us for a luncheon in his honor from 1100 to 1400 hours in the 025th District auditorium on Thursday, 12 June 2008. A long and successful career needs to be celebrated. We hope to see you there.
5/29/2008 06:30:00 PM
The celebration of SCC's milestones reminded me that the West Virginian hillbilly piece of shit Sam Christian is leaving out. During his career, Sam fucked up a few young coppers. Young, intelligent, well-rounded individuals that went elsewhere and are in the midst of stellar law enforcement careers. Problem is, CPD doesn't have them, other agencies have them. We surely would have done well to have them with us. Good calls Sam, you piece of shit. I hope you rot in hell. Oh, and please stick around the Chicago metro area. I see a deserved DUI in your future.
Signed,
19 March 1973 fellow PPO.
I mailed you a birthday gift. Did you get it yet?
It was addressed to Supt SCC and shipped to HQ
I heard rumor that over 100 showed up for the 3 spots for police tech. and the results were given out right after the test, any truth to that? Are all upcoming promotional exams going to be done this way??
OT but the way, CONGRATULATIONS!!!
Anyway, Why are there "dudes" from a so called "church" in Englewood soliciting at the Walgreen's on 63rd and Austin? They need a permit to solicit for charitable contributions issued by the Dept. of Revenue. These guys are scaming the public. Supposedly, they are there every weekend. Walgreen's managers don't have a clue regarding the "permit situation". This is an easy pinch for the tact team. (an MCC, a state charge and a Deceptive practice case report)or at the very least an ANOV (with I.D.). Calls to 311 went unresponsive. Me thinks that since "theys from the woods" the calls disappeared?
It's sad to see the gullible one's giving donations for the crack pipe.
When is 006 tac going to get some seasoned officers? We'll take quality 4 yrs officers too. Just no more 2 yrs. please! The ones just picked are mostly 2 yrs. They were hand chosen by D/C Johnson and his secretary. LT is not too happy about their work ethic. They cannot even write a decent narcotics case report. I am not kidding. One told me he never learned to write one before. Sgt. K please come back and show these kids how to be real po-po. Now more than ever, we need you!
Congrats. Thank you for giving me a place to voice my opinion now and them. Lot's of very bright bloggers and I learn from them. I've been making my way through the past three years so don't delete any of it yet.
Keep on truckin'.
You are going to hell for telling the truth.
SCC: (Whoever he/she/they may be)
GOD BLESS YOU AND THE FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE U.S. CONSTITUTION!
Burn in Hell, Daley! Behind your facade of flower planters, wrought iron fences and dreams of the 2016 Olympics, YOU ARE THE ANTICHRIST HIMSELF!
3 million wow congrats...i might not have a gun or a badge but I still read the blog!! that would of been better in the papers.
Congrats....
OT..175 homicides and climbing. This fucking city will burn this summer. hahahaha fuck you BC and your lackie J-fed
Congrats and thanks! I've expanded my vocabulary to include:
asshat
shinebox
douche bag
numb nuts
libtard
demo-RAT
reach around
The first round is on me next time at the water bowl or your next church funcrion.
SCC How do you do it? This is a very well produced and edited site. I can only imagine the enormous numbers of submitions you get and than to cut out the garbage from the thoughtful and balance the selection to keep it interesting. It must take an enormous amount of people hours. You are very good!
Maybe after 3 years it's about time you consider closing this blog. The reason I suggest this is that too much inside infromation about how the police dept. works is being displayed to the general public.
I do not enjoy the thought that a small group of men/women, who complain about almost everything, lead the public to believe that the entire dept. has the same attitude.
When we having cake and ice cream?
Happy Birthday SCC and many f#$cking more.

quiet you! the noise you're making blowin' the midget's booty is annoying to us grown folks on the blog... get a room & show your devotion to him elsewhere!
SCC your fine work has had an impact. Keep up the good work!
How about a Birthday Cake with a certain blond sergeant who shows up at other historial events popping out of it?

What? Quit will you! This blog is a blessing because it gives these fucking bosses heart burn because they know realize their bull shit will be aired for everyone. Inside information about how this department works? NOT!! This department is so fucked up NO ONE--I mean NO ONE can figure out how it runs.
I hope this blog continues until the city is nuked by rag heads! Keep going SCC
You think that Daley's bad now? Wait till his bitch boy Obama gets elected President. The only city people that will get indicted are coppers.
off topic: But necessary fox 32 news is going to show the cory flagg video tonight at 9:00 p.m.Sure kick a department when it's already down,just when you think you have a chance to start fighting back they deliver another hard shot to the chin. They already showed the footage of his cadi truck pulling up(F.O.P. sticker) and the drug selling scumbag walks up to the truck.
Congratulations SCC! In regards to the suggestion by 4:30pm I think you should shut the blog down too. Just wait until all the incompetent, unqualified leaders of the Department have been removed, a fair promotional system is in place, police officers are treated impartially by the media and all corruption is gone from City Hall. Then just make sure the nanny-state is over, socialists are extinct and personal responsibility is practiced by all. Soon as that's all done, shut down. In the meantime, keep spreading the truth brother.
Congrats SCC! I am a working tactical officer in 006. The new guys and girls brought in back are some the laziest do-nothings I have ever had the displeasure of working with. Who the fuck put these worthless po's on our teams? Come on Glenn, these were your picks???

is 006th that hard up for tactical officers?????!! they even have the 663 team being Tactical FTO's to the new two year wonders on their team. Give me a fuckin' break. Hey are you guys getting FTO pay???? probably not!!!

Thank goodness for Scc, if for nothing else it aggravates the heck out of him. Do what you can to do that, cause wishing for him to get justice within the federal system is silly. He will never face any federal charges, especially with the imminent election of Bahama mama. We all know that he and his whole damn family belong in jail.
Happy Birthday and where's my goodie bag?
Correction: The Cory Flagg video will be shown on monday's 9:00 p.m. broadcast,on the commercial they dispalyed a small portion.The section where Cory pulls up in his cadi truck with (F.O.P Emblem) allegedly on display and the dru
g dealer walks up to talk to him.
Happy B-DAY SCC, and long may you run.
Also; ANOTHER MONTH GONE AND STILL NO SIGN AT ALL OF A CONTRACT FOR OUR GREAT POLICE OFFICERS OF THE CPD, WHO DESERVE MUCH MORE IN EVERY RESPECT!!!
Does anybody have that chicken wing recipe that was posted a couple of thanksgivings ago?
5/31/2008 07:30:00 AM
LOL.
Happy birthday scc. Question. Im young and new at this so forgive me if I sound ignorant.
During contract negotiations, does the fop president ever ask the troops for our input before they make a final decision with the city? Or are we just stuck with what the fop agrees to on our behalf?

Then go back to the watch you crying b#*&
I left your shitty city a few months ago and joined a great mid sized city in the south. I was born and raised in chicago, my father served the city for 29 years, I served for 8. I have never been happier than right now. This dept. pays well, and I get to leave after 20 years!! They back us up when the shit hits the fan as well. You idiots up there better open your eyes, you are all getting bent over and railed!!! CPD is the butt of jokes nationwide!! You are no longer respected anywhere.
Take back your city boys!
Congrats; I feel as though I've known you my whole life (or at least my whole career). If only I had the time and computer skills you guys/gals have, I'd contribute more often. Keep up the good work I/F, and see you at the next I.F.
Holly Cow!
Another home run!
Sox suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck

Kid,I'm sorry to burst your bubble
but I've been on this job 30+ my days are numbered,but what you see is what you get.The FOP tells "YOU"
what your gonna take,and thats the way it is!Get used to it!

The FOP asked for input from the membership for SIX MONTHS prior to tendering the City it's list of proposals. All Unit Reps were asked numerous times to poll the membership and to tell the membership to go fill out the "wish list" put up on the FOP website for months, beginning in Fall 2006!
You are just asking NOW, a year after the old contract expired if the FOP ever asks for input? Yes they do but if your are clueless or never ever read the FOP newsletter or never visit the FOP sebsite you would never know this.
FOP President Donahue asked for members input at every General Meeting for months before the contract expired. They always ask the membership for input.
Didn't you hear this at the General meetings you attended in the year before the contract expired? didn't you see the "wish list" page on the FOP website? Didn't you submit a list of your proposals to the FOP or to your unit rep? so only now you are waking up and wondering how the contract process works? You are likely one of the voices I hear so often in the locker rooms of police stations that shouts "fuck the FOP" while you never ever spend your own time doing anything for yourself or the membership.
As for accepting a final contract proposal from the City, we (membership) are required to vote acceptance or rejection on any contract. This has been moot for the past several contracts because we have submitted the contract proposals to binding arbitration. Binding on the membership that is, not necessarily on the City.
Don't like the current system? Work to make it better. Next time there are union elections, work to field a complete slate of candidates and spend your own money to run for office.
Or keep on complaining in the locker room before you run out of the police station on your way to the 2nd job or the bar.
Go back in your cave.

True.
Test results were given out, not rank order, that will come later. It is an inside job very technical relating to computer networks. If you know computer networking very well you might make it for one of the spots and then you can train the "merit" selection officer. The department gets one of those three spots so expect the usual clout phone call asshole to get it.
Also expect never to work holidays, never to work overtime and to be expected to work unpaid overtime. And to like it.

I've said many times to union reps,
DON'T GIVE UP MEDICAL BENFITS.
DON'T GIVE UP RETIREE BEBEFITS.
Watch the city hold out some small, taxable uniform allowance bonus while taking back a major portion of both. Who else remembers, "$2.00 a paycheck for medical insurance."
6/01/2008 06:48:00 AM
Calm down Mark, calm down.
Sorry mister angry fop guy. I didn't need the lecture, but I hope you feel better. Perhaps I didn't clarify my question about our contract.
I am aware of the input we provided to our reps. Now I hear of all the things the city wants to take away from us. From what I hear "in the locker room" nobody wants the city to take any more away from us.
So I just wondered if things get down to a final give and take between us and the city, will the fop come to us and ask our opinion before they allow the city to take more than give? But now I understand that we have a pattern of it ending with a decision made by an arbitrator.
Thank you to the senior officer who responded. That was what I was afraid of, we always get sold out.
YOU SHOULD LEAVE.... Jfed just said he doesn't read SCC. He never said he didn't blog on it. and I DO have a bad attitude, that's why there's a Lazy-Boy under my do-thing ass right now. Happy Bday hotstuff.

TO 06/01/08, 1;00 AM WHAT DEPARTMENT IN THE SOUTH DO YOU WORK FOR AND ARE THRY HIRING?
Why do you refuse to publish my comments about the 4 and 2 schedule. SCC must be a fan of the 12 hour day and refuses to publish any comments to contrary. Wow that’s fair. Hey, don't let the rank and file be informed, remember it's all about you
! I’m done with your site. You censer comments you don't agree with..great county America.
Why do you refuse to publish my comments about the 4 and 2 schedule.
Because you publish it 8 times a day in 8 different threads. We delete duplicate comments out of hand. If you have a point, make it, and trust your message will go through instead of wasting our and everyone else's time.
SCC must be a fan of the 12 hour day and refuses to publish any comments to contrary.
We would despise a 12 hour day personally, but it hasn't really come up yet, so we haven't expounded on it. If it does come up, we'll have posts on it. As to the "refusal" see the previous rebuttal.
Wow that’s fair. Hey, don't let the rank and file be informed, remember it's all about you!
Again, one time is fair, twice is us being generous. Eight times a day is you being an ass and we don't need to indulge that. This site has ALWAYS been about what interests us...welcome to reality.
I’m done with your site.
Sure you are.
You censer comments you don't agree with
A lie as evidenced by our posting this. And it's spelled "censor."
..great county America.
Yes it is. The greatest country on earth. But it isn't America censoring you - it's SCC. This is the dictatorship of SCC. You have ZERO expectation of free speech here. Learn to live with it.
For the record, we regularly delete duplicate comments, racist rants, ad hominem attacks on SCC, the blog, certain individuals, and a laundry list of words that confuse our grandmother when she reads the site. Long time readers know of what we speak; short timers can usually figure it out after a try or two; short bus riders (such as yourself) might have a bit of a difficulty. Try harder asshat
