Bad Timing Ike
Aldercreature and granter-of-brotherly "merit" promotions verifies his status as a clueless moron with this piece on FoxNews:
- Some Chicago aldermen are turning up the heat on the city's top cop. The recent rash of shootings and the uptick in the murder rate have plenty of people concerned. As Darlene Hill reports, Police Superintendent Jody Weis could soon face some frustrated city councilors
The video on the FoxNews site is mis-linked. If we were cynical, we'd say that Fox 32 was covering for the Ike's stupidity in asking what police are doing to stop violence within mere hours of a Chicago Police Officer making the ultimate sacrifice. Dumb move Ike.
You want to know why crime is up? We pointed it out 14 October of last year. Someone sent us a couple of sets of worksheets and we pointed out that on that particular night, they were operating down four our of fifteen beat cars and two other cars were working 99 (officer alone) on midnights. That's ten officers short in what is one of the busier districts around.
You think it's gotten any better?

Ike you are on the board of the police and fire and you don't have a fucking clue? How about hiring more police oh I forgot never bite the hand that feeds you. You are as useless as judge Carothers. How fucking drunk does one have to be to get found guilty by her geez. Obviously super duper drunk a .08 will not cut it
Merit Ike should audit every district in the city. were is the man power.
It's very simple..we can't be the police anymore and that is what they wanted and now they got it!
The media, fake revs, politicians, bosses, etc. made this bed and now it's time to lay in it! Once again no contract, small salaries, cost of living, and no trust in the leadership of the department and city. It's been building for many years and the sad part is we have not hit rock bottom yet! They think this job is an exact science and they are dead wrong! Making us be the "pussy police" by sending us the daily "we're watching you" messages only makes us do less. It's called self preservation! What J-Fed did to Cozzie opened a lot of eyes! The city offering us a %1.1 raise shows what they think of us, but most of us already knew.
Caruthers is part of the problem his brother made by political merit. Ikes father indicted and sent to prison for his aldermatic shenanigans. Ikes sister who loves to use the race card on black as well as white P.O.'s defending her many gang banging clients. Ike are you backing Jackson for sup?
Hey Ike, instead of asking Weis, why not ask the animals you and your bum alderfucks represent in the ghetto's (which they created), why they cant act like civil human beings. The hard working, tax paying citizens in my clean, well taken care of neighborhood aren't selling dope or shooting each other. Yeah yeah, I know you have to blame someone else for your peoples animal actions. It'll always be someone else's fault for them never being able to contribute to society as opposed to being the human shit, tax draining link cards they always will be.
My father was interviewed on TV news in the 1970's about working 10-99. Well over 30 years ago. Nothing has changed in those 30 years.
I really don't expect things to change now.
He is under federal investigation and he slams the police? His brother is a LT and he cannot support police? What a drop in status, from friend of the mayor to acting like the typical reverend. Your turn is coming Ike.
Aldercreature Ike did not call for these hearings without the Midgets approval. ( do u think J- Fed understands this) The Midget is furiuos that the crime rate is going up but he cant say too much in the media because after all J-Fed was the Emperors pick, he went outside the Dept. to find him. To question his tactics and abilities openly would be to question himself. He does no wrong. So what to do? Sic Ike on him in public through city council hearings. JACK HIS ASS UP so that when things fail to improve, look out J -Fed the bus is going to roll over you. It will be driven by a crazy midget emperor Too Bad so Sad.

AMEN
Who cares,let Jody be the scapegoat.He wanted to be the POLICE in this corrupt city.He's in way over his head but he's being paid well for it.
SCC...Thanks for pointing out the his brother, although a nice guy, is a Lieutenant because of the alderman. I guess the system and the police department works when "THEY" want it to!!!!!
What the Chicago NEEDS to do is cut the number of Alderman by half down to less than 25 ALderman and mirror them to each Police Districts! That would cut down on the Lunatic calls the Districts get from these whiny Aldermans!
There is no way Chicago needs 50 Alderman while larger cities like Los Angles and New York do more with far less Aldercreatures walking around!
That would be the best and most appropriate cuts to make is the Alderman and their useless city paid staffs!
Can you imagine the money the taxpayers would save! Probably enough to put another 200 Police Officers on the street if NOT more!
But nah, it makes to much sense!
Crime would go down if Ike's brother was made exempt.
Go for it, Jody!
Ch. 7 still has it's interview with Ike on it's web site. I can't believe this guy, first he demands changes in the Dept when Wiess becomes superintendent and now he's questioning those changes and hinting that they have something to do with the upsurge in police shootings.

"My father was interviewed on TV news in the 1970's about working 10-99. Well over 30 years ago. Nothing has changed in those 30 years.
I really don't expect things to change now.
It was mentioned in previous posts perhaps he was still out there @ age 60 because he liked to be the Police.DOUBTFUL. Perhaps he also wanted to work by himself because his partner was off.Who knows? I've personally requested to work 10-99 because I knew working by myself,I didnt need to worry about the dangerous actions of some know-it-all nutbag P.O. who could give two shits about the person sitting next to them. These MORONS exist in every district in the City, although Fillmore seems to be fraught w/them ?
Ike's brother thought that he was going to make Commander of Personnel soon after he "made" lie-u-tenant. Probably driving Ike crazy knowing that his brother hasn't been made (hence wanting to ream J.W.). I guess Beavers is the only one with the real Hog Balls.
If we get a 1.1% raise that is essentially a pay cut when the cost of living has gone up about 4%. Then, there is the mayor spewing his bullshit in the paper today about how everyone should be grateful for the difficult and dangerous job we do. Which is it fuck face?
Quit spending our money for BUDGETED POSITIONS on your fucking Olympic fantasy. This sad time should be a wake up call to you that your theivery is getting good,innocent people hurt. JAGOFF!
O.T. anyone from 022 or 006 care to give comments on the detail of cars at 108 and troy... curious as to whats going on ?
Holy I Like Ike Batman!!!
Ike look in the mirror and ask yourself those questions again and maybe you will figure it out....
Ike if that doesn't work then ask your recently [merit] promoted relative Anthony and ask him why crime is up? Maybe he's gots some answers. By the way who did you recommend Tony to get that merit promotion in first place? Dana Starks maybe? Perhaps an investigation is needed.
Ike you could ask weather man Tom Skilling. Tom knows a lot about the effects of the full moon during summertime perhaps Lake Michigan tides are to blame? Ike jump into lake to get a closer look maybe there's the answer.
Ike ask Warren Buffet about crime here in Chicago. Warren knows a lot about the stock market and [pension funds]. I need not say more...
But, Ike whoever you ask, if you don’t know by now, you never will know?
Someone should post the manpower sheets for all 3 watches in 008, a printout of the daily calls for service, the crime stats (especially violent), and the activity/type of arrests made by the tact/gang teams...
And people wonder why the department is so fucked up???

You hit the nail on the head. Crime is not the fault of the actions or inactions of the police. Crime is the fault of the people who have no moral compass. Stop second guessing the actions of the police. For all the rhetoric that we post here on the blog, the truth is that the majority of the officers in this city are still out there doing their jobs to the best of their abilities everyday. If we weren't we would not be mourning the loss of one of our own. Officer Francis was near retirement and could have chose to lay down and do nothing, but it was not in him as it is not in the majority of cops on the street. We go out and do our best everyday. Unfortunately, we are only the finger in the dike. We, the police, cannot hold back the flood waters on our own. It is the responsibility of everyone in the city to help reduce crime by doing their part. That may have been the ultimate failure of the CAPS program. People did not get the concept that it was their job to help the police reduce crime. Shame on them.
Ike, look in the mirror tomorrow and ask what you have done to help reduce crime in your ward. Then look around and ask what your constituents have done to reduce crime, then after you have done that, and only then may you question the actions of the hardest working law officers in the country!!
Officers, be proud of yourselves! Don't second guess yourselves! Don't let the rhetoric and b.s. get to you. Go out and do what you do best. Watch your backs and your partners backs while doing it. Never let your guard down and remember no call is "routine".
God bless Officer Francis, may he rest in peace. Bless his family that their grief may be brief and happy memories of their loved one fill their hearts. Be safe.
ke maybe violence is up because of the corrupt clout promotions of incompetant do nothings like your brother. He couldnt run the fry machine at mcdonalds but you made him a leader so reap what you sow.

The officer shot yesterday was working alone, 10-99, on the midnight shift. This over 30 years after another officer was gunned down while working alone and after the City agreed not to force officers to work that shift alone. Time passes, memories fade and it happened again.
Why do we as police officers allow the WC to get away with putting up one man cars on midnights and third watch?
Partially because a Captain is not really a Captain any more. Thy can be moved or demoted at will. Witness the recent move of the 019 second Watch Captain. the message to Captains is clear, toe the company line or you won't be a Captain for long.
In bygone days the Captain was the boss of the Watch. period. Now the Captain is just another political tool who can be replaced with a phone call if he/she shows any backbone.
We officers have the power to refuse to work alone on 1st and 3rd Watch. We should at long last unite for our common good and refuse to work 10-99 on 1st and 3rd Watch.
I can't wait until Obama gets elected because he will solve all the problems in places like area 1. His campaign is trumpeting that even though John McCain is a war hero he never really did anything for "the people." (Get the code words.) On the other hand, while McCain was off being a war hero, Obama was working hard to improve the communities here on the south side of Chicago. He did such a great job, didn't he?
call the boss down for some hard questions? is this guy serious? i think he is.i believe anyone with a 3rd grade education knows where the answers are.maybe jody should ASK HIM whats he doing to curb the voilence in these commumitites?
Ike the Police and Fire Committee can not scape goat Supt. Weis! You budget the police for 13000 police and it appears there is only 9500. Your Committee wants to do more with less. Also, include the African Americans that have no respect for anyone. Funny thing people getting shot because someone called anothers mother a "Bitch", the consequences are getting a gun to kill.
Hey Ike, why not push to make the PO's numbers actually at 13,500 instead of the 9,500?
Why to fire inspectors get to have a partner, when we are put into far more dangerous situations EVERYDAY, and are forced to work 99??
BLUE FLU!!! Chicago, GFY!!!!
Clueless Jody should start with a clean sheet of paper. Create only the units we need. Staff them with the manpower that's available. Every car would be up 24/7.
keep the defenition of 99 on the down-low nothing good can come of shitheads knowing what that means
I heard him on television and was sickened. what a fucking moron. the problem is called nepotisms.
It's called self preservation! What J-Fed did to Cozzie opened a lot of eyes! The city offering us a %1.1 raise shows what they think of us, but most of us already knew.
Along with fucking over the disabled with no increases.
My father was interviewed on TV news in the 1970's about working 10-99. Well over 30 years ago. Nothing has changed in those 30 years.
I really don't expect things to change now.
If you want to work 99 you should have the option, however you should never be forced to work 99. OPTION
I can't believe that you can work without a contract. As a CPS teacher who has a bad contract, I understand how you wouldn't be so motivated. My hats off to you guys, and I defend you when I can.
Shitcago is reaping what it has sown.
I had an old Irish neighbor who could not say idiot correctly. She called them E-Jets. Ike you sir are an E-Jet.
A REAL TSA SCREENER SAYS
First my family's thoughts are with the CPD Officers mourning the death of your slain comrade. There is no rational reason for this outrage. In these times we need a Mayor like President Alvaro Uribe of Colombia. That guy has not coddled terrorists or turned soft. He has come up with out of the box approaches like yesterday's rescue of hostages being held by the FARC. Not a shot was fired and nobody was killed. You can't tell me criminals in Chicago are smarter or tougher than FARC guerillas. A guy like that could really turn Chicago around.
PS A lot of TSA Screeners are huge fans of CPD Police Officers. A few TSA screeners are goldbrickers and jerks. Your link was posted in our break areas before a leftwing supervisor removed them. I hope to soon work with the Sheriff's Department at the County Jail. You can bet I will be firm but fair and I will always remember that I am priviledged to be an American citizen. On the good days and the bad days. One day I hope to run for Alderman in a westside ward as a Republican.
Concerned Westside Citizen, McCain Voter, and US Navy veteran.
Don't dig to deep Ike maybe Jody will put some of the blame on some of his "politically appointed" gold stars who do not have a clue about what needs to be done,but his hands are tied because of their connections and he just may speak his mind
reduction is crime is easy....
let the Police do police work..
But you cant.
What do hard working police officers get.
1. merit promotions....NO
2. specialized units...NO
3. time due when requested...NO
4. praise from bosses for a job well done....VERY SELDOM....
what you really get is..
1. CR'S
2. SUED
3. DUMPED FROM UNITS
4. HURT/ IOD
Dont do FU*KING thing until the city and community starts supporting their police.
Stay safe...and God Bless.
IKE BE IGNANT AS A MUTHAFUCKA!
What a bunch of dumb-ass FOOLS in City, County government in this locale. Anyone thinking of moving here, Stay FAR Away! This place is a political FREAK SHOW!!!!!!
These MORONS exist in every district in the City, although Fillmore seems to be fraught w/them ?

Hey?!? We got rid of RC. We're short at least one moron in Fillmore now. Cut us some slack.

He should have done a bang up job like "Your" (code word) President Bush. Ask someone who lost a child in his Private war or better yet look at the economy! Your a racist pussy!
I just got home and picked up the scum times. Is Mary Mitchell on vacation? I think someone wrote an article for her while she was out of town. Maybe there should be an investigation into who did it.
Also if Obama is elected president they won't be able to say that the MAN is holding him back. Who will they blame for being lazy and always trying to put the blame on someone else?
If you don't want one man car on the street then don't work them. The one man car is up to the individuals.
A two man car might not have helped Rick Francis unless his partner was standing right next to him throughout the whole incident, but a partner might have discouraged the woman from starting the whold incident.
How about NO ONE MAN CALLS. All responsed are to be atleast two cars and no action taken until the backup shows. The Francis incident was over in seconds and no anylizing by the assholes downtown who are examining his holster, his shoes, sox, uniform his angle to this or that by the fucking idiots from down town is going to help.
THe bosses on the scene were a real bunch of asshole idiots. Very few exempts knew what to do and had to interfere including a D/D know nothing deputy chief, the ignorant supt. who liked to look tall when he stood nest to Aunt Bea. The original Dets. assigned knew what to do, they didn't need bosses who could not find their asses with BOTH hands trying to run an investigation they never really or acutally handled.
(Was it 1400 or 14000 bodies, in all of this excitement I kinda lost track myself ?)
Where did all of my people go?
Formation of TRU stole about 10 people per district. Tact Teams used to be 8 now are 10 that’s another 6. 2 Gang Teams and Sgts. and that’s another 18. Desk crew used to be 1 Sgt and two P.O.s. Then two P.O.s a Sgt and one civilian. Now it’s one Sgt., one civilian and five P.O.s that’s another 3 P.O.s times three watches for anther loss of 9 bodies. Neighborhood Relations used to be one Sgt. two P.O.s and one P.O. as Senior services officer. Now N.R. joins with CAPS with a LT extra Sgt. and an additional 10 P.O.s That’s another loss of 12 bodies. Plus each watch now has a watch secretary that another three ( one of the desk guys used to do the same shit). There are more walkins today but that should have only increased the desk by one.
The Area Deputy’s used to have one secretary. Now they have a full administrative staff, gun teams, mission teams and at least 4-6 six guys that are still carried on the books as being in a district but are on the second floor of the area. That another loss of a least of 9 per district. The City invented a DOC unit, a fusion room, an accountability unit, and a CAPS Unit and Deputy. Lets add another 3 per district.
I may not be a CPA but that’s about 70 per district that we don’t have now, BUT WE USED TO! Did Little Richie hire any more people to do this B.S. NO! Do more with less! If you sent all those people back and made each D.C. accountable for his/her own District maybe we would not be so short!
And that’s without talking about all of the clout babies running a photocopy machine at the academy or Preventive Programs or working as the Department party photographer, or all of the secret squirrel units at Homan Square.

Sorry to disappoint you Pal, but if you refuse an assignment, you will find yourself unemployed.
Call FOP and ask them what recourse you have. Maybe they can negotiate that in the new contract.

Hey Don: don't let these idiots fool you. We do have a contract. The only thing we don't have is a raise.

OMG...thank-you Lord! I really thought that for all these years that Carothers was really a statue. Then one day, I saw his eyes blink standing behind Daley. But to now find out that he is not a "deaf mute"... I just don't know what to think. I am not a fan of what's his name...Jody but to say that the homicides are his fault. wow...I am also glad he came out of his coma...oops! that was a speech for the people in his precent!

I figure you are either ignorant or an asshat or both. If you check the dates on your contract it expired over a year ago. While the old contract agreements that pertain to discipline, time, grievances, and the like are still in force by default, this in no way implies that we have a contract. If the city would bargain in good faith maybe we would have a contract already. Unfortunately, they don't, and we don't have a contract. Maybe you should attend a union meeting or two, maybe you would understand then. If Don works for CPS, he already knows just how the city double deals. You sir are the one being fooled.

Dear Ike,

Why do guys keep blaming tact teams and specialized units for manpower shortages? I can see that there are too many people working inside but that is the molehill in the big picture. The REAL problem is the shortage of officers PERIOD. And YOU IKE should be aware of that. Pony up some $$$ for the new contract, TRY to make the job attractive, and put some recruits through the academy! Quit looking for bullshit reasons to cover the truth. Jody didn't make those changes. How does a guy that has NO CLUE who or what 75% (if not more) of the bosses are or have done make sweeping changes like that??....SOMEONE was pulling the strings!
HEY IKE, how about you and the rest of the part time, non working, overpaid, egotystical, elected pieces of waste try stepping in our shoes and do our job for a bit. Oh wait, you and most of your collegues probably can't because...
1. You probably don't have the education requirements.
2. You fat lazy pieces of crap couldn't pass the power test you want us to pass.
3. TOO MANY CONVICTIONS.
4. RANDOM DRUG TESTING.
5. Can't pass the Psychological.
6. You wouldn't want a $40,000 pay cut for a FULL TIME JOB.
7. Police officers can't have bodyguards.
8. Midnights.
9. No fuzz on the handcuffs.

10. Although we employ men AND women BALLS ARE REQUIRED.

I have more respect for many of the felons I've locked up than your typical, spineless exempt suckholes, Daley, the Toddler, Caruthers and most of the City Council, Blagojevich, Durbin, Obama, the pharisaical, demagogue revs, most media and your ilk.
Get your stupid ass out in the streets, pay your dues and get some self-esteem, jagoff! It is understandable for a loser like you to have extremely diminished expectations.
How dare you! FUCK YOU!

HAPPY 4TH OF JULY:
Three males were shot and wounded Thursday in the Chatham neighborhood on Chicago's South Side.
The victims, ages 16, 17, and 21, were on 79th Street near Eberhart Avenue when a gunman opened fire about 5 p.m., said Police Officer JoAnn Taylor.
Paramedics arrived and found three males in separate locations within a block of one another with bullet wounds in the lower extremities, Chicago Fire Department spokesman Larry Langford said.
Reported in Chicago Tribune 3jul08
Let's start a counter for this weekend.
I got one word for him COWARD. Strap one on and come out to join us.
? I've personally requested to work 10-99 because I knew working by myself,I didnt need to worry about the dangerous actions of some know-it-all nutbag P.O. who could give two shits about the person sitting next to them.
I agree I have had to many of the nutbags sitting next to me. I put in a to from to work by myself. we should have a choice.

NO other profession has the dangers we have, No human being is going to murder your brother for doing his job. you are a pussy company man bitch. and you wonder why we would rather work 99 then work with a bitch such as yourself.

A police sgt from 006 lost his daughter in a terrible accident. The funeral was today and the family gathered at a family members home in that prior to the wake and funeral. Police service provided to a great sgt and his wonderful daughter.

I'm not sure what this means, but I can see you are another CPS graduate struggling to speak the English language. Keep trying...maybe go back and finish fifth grade...for the third time...
NORTHSIDE ON A ROLL! YOU ROCK JOHNNY!
Andy Shaw slammed Superintendent Weasel on Chicago Tonight last week. Called him a failure and said morale is at an all-time low. I think he even mentioned firing all the experienced bosses without even getting to know anything about them.
Wow. It took US two weeks, and it only took the MEDIA four months to figure it out. They're improving.
What the Chicago NEEDS to do is cut the number of Alderman by half down to less than 25 ALderman and mirror them to each Police Districts!

That may be the worst idea ever. Can you imagine, each of these alderfools thinking they have their own private armies? You think the political influence on the Department is bad now? Wait and see what happens if this idea is ever implemented.
I don't care for him, but we have to be honest, he is correct. Weis dismissed most all of our senior staff, and replaced them with some good guys and some working police, but what about all the knowledge and experience that was lost along the way. Being the working police does not make you a competent and knowledgeable manager. That is really what our upper Bosses are.
You also wonder why morale is so bad, well, Weis who has never been the police told everyone that would listen, all news media, the ministers he met with, etc., that he was going to crack down on officers, arrest and fire all who drink even those that drink at home(when I have smelled alcohal on his breath on 3 occasions in the elevator as he arrived early in the morning), not tollerate cr#s, must I go on. He basically said, f--- the working police, and if you do mess up, or it is alleged you messed up in any way, you ARE guilty until proven innocent. Also, considering the fact that we don't get a housing allotment as Weis, Brust and others do, we also only get a 1.5% raise on average and inflation doubles that every year, we don't make $300,000.00, we do have families and we were not allowed to surround our selves with friends from the FBI who also have no police experience but are making major police decisions, we are now very skeptical of doing anything but what is required of us at a minimal. Since you told the world Weis, that CR#'s = investigations and trouble for officers, everytime the working police hit a dope spot, gang location or hot area of the city, hell, lets get grandma and the rest of the hood rats to call OPS or what is it now, IPRA.
This is a perfect example. Look at the CAR/DOC meetings. DS Michael Shields sits there and beats up on all the bosses he does not like, especially the black bosses that he may have shared a female relationship with their wife, girlfriend or piece on the side. He is the king of sexual harassment beefs, their was an EEOC complaint against him, and he is promoted? I forgot, our media girl (his other piece) has been keeping that info. out of the media, but I hear CPD is about to get slaughtered with the real story via FOX news by 6 retired, forced out bosses! By the way, the wife he was screwing afer he stood best man in their wedding is the First Deputy's secretary. Her husband got promoted meritoriously to Lieutenant and just made Commander. What a payoff!
As I listened to the last DOC meeting, how the heck does anyone expect the hell hole Districts as 15, 10, 11, 7, 4, 5, 6, and 3 to make any head way? They are down Supervisors, they are down police, they have no real support, that is the first place the Inspectors go to write officers up and they have the worst conditions to patrol everyday. Who is that idiot Commander Crump-Hales? The Superintendent let her talk about some BS policing for an hour! A fucking hour. He and Brust were actually impressed with what she said. They get the idiot reward for the day!!! That is why we need bosses that were and are the police.
I talked to someone in patrol on Wednesday and half of the Senior Sergeants with experience and guidance we need in all of those Districts are going else where. They sent half the class to the southside of hell, but wait and see, I bet all Sergeants and P.O.'s who can run for cover, will. Hell, I don't blame them. I left 11 the first chance I got, oh yeah, thanks Jimmy.
Mayor, if you want to get rid of some of us that actually care, that are tryng to make a difference and that actually want to work hard, offer an early buy out, you will loose half of this force and then Weis can bring in more FBI agents to further screw this city up!
I know the Mayor has to save face, but at who's expense? The innocent lives that are being lost everyday! Get rid of all of the FBI Police wanna be's, yes I said it and the city has every supporting tool to do it! Bring back some of the old bosses as consultants to fix this shit! Take Police Officers out of 6 work days. They are worn the fuck out! I don't see any of the Bosses rotating days off! That was the one thing that helped my decision to go to 35th, so I guess I can say thanks Weis, at least you did something right.
I figure you are either ignorant or an asshat or both. If you check the dates on your contract it expired over a year ago. While the old contract agreements that pertain to discipline, time, grievances, and the like are still in force by default, this in no way implies that we have a contract. If the city would bargain in good faith maybe we would have a contract already. Unfortunately, they don't, and we don't have a contract. Maybe you should attend a union meeting or two, maybe you would understand then. If Don works for CPS, he already knows just how the city double deals. You sir are the one being fooled.

**********************************
"Full Force" the contract is in full force. Not one part of that contract "expired." If you think anything in that contract is not valid, print it. I don't think you can. The only thing missing is raises. There is no new money until we negotiate it.
I think you believe all the hype these morons ane printing here.
By the way who did you vote for on the FOP board? The same old crew? There's your problem...
Thanks Mark or Bill or Tim or whatever other board member you are.
Go ahead and spread more lies.
