GOOD JOB. Repeat as necessary.
Leclaire courts are NOT part of the Garfield Ridge neighborhood.
Finally...some good news! St. Michael is still at work.
I cannot believe Ch. 2 is giving this mope with his hat covering his face air time...then quoting him! Even for them, that's a little much.
Thank God the coppers are safe! Go home that way everyday.
Glad the copper is ok. 1 down, a bunch more to go.
God Bless the officer hope the offender is dead saves us money! The area though is not garfield ridge again the media has no clue what areas they are in!
When are the YUPS going to gentrify the savage enclave of LeClaire Courts?
Did you read they had to quell an angry mob afterwards? Give me a break. How about not drawing on a gun on a cop?
he gone. I saw the news this morning the news had some hooker from the courts talking woo woo about the poleez shot an unarmed teenager. Yeah an 18 year old honor student getting ready for his 5th year in high school. Good shot office
They gots to put muzzles on the police. One of theirs gets shot and they all come in and harass all us honest citizens. It ain't right.
did you see and hear the genius interviewed on CLTV? "they shots my friend. theys bogus as hell joe." pretty funny. maybe the media has a sense of humor....naw. stay safe
"Dey shot ma man jo!"
You gotta love the media rounding up the biggest shitheads to put before the camera.
Glad to hear the copper is doing OK.
glack a- lacklaclackahlackhlackha--
gotta love the media on this one.
nice job boys, glad your ok.
Another IR number deleted from the system, great job!
EXCELLENT WORK GLAD THE P.O. IS ALL RIGHT. HEY JFED GO F-CKYOURSELF.
HEY,........lets get this straight.
4900 W 45th is NOT Garfield Ridge!!
Over there it isn't even Garcia Ridge.
Good to hear that the Officer is okay.
"They shot my man. My man's like 18 years old. He ain't do nothing in these streets. He was a good person. He don't do nothing. He chilled. He don't do nothing to these peoples out here in these streets. He was riding on his bike, man," one nearby resident said.
Another one of Shitcago's finest.
I see Chalkie has finally widen his scope to include revs.
http://www.suntimes.com/news/metro/1112890,CST-NWS-shot18.article
Way to go Chalkie.
Glad the 008th district officers are ok. Great response citywide for the 10-1 that was called when the mutts started to cause a scene. Proper crime scene protection @ the direction of the 008th district supervisors. Prompt response from A/1 Detectives. Good job all the way around.
Since when are the LeClaire Courts in Garfield Ridge? Great, there goes my property value.
Nice job diamond! It was great to see the looks on the natives faces when they saw how many police were there and when they saw the detectives with shotguns. Be careful in there for next few days-they're going to be shooting alot more now.
Calling that area Garfield Ridge is a real stretch.
Great job one more piece of shit of the streets.
You know what, I used to get all fired up when I would see the media coverage of police involved shootings, but the coverage has become so comical I can only laugh now.
Attention media, please keep putting these goofs on TV so I can get a good chuckle. Let the normal people see how these jagoffs act, from the screaming non-sensical rantings to the ghetto "TA TA TA TA TA TA TA, the poleeeses kilt em fo no reason"
Will the silent majority please stand up!
A quote from the sun-times website
"The incident occurred in the CHA’s LeClaire Courts development, according to a source, who said a disturbance, possibly involving neighbors and the victim’s family, erupted shortly after the shooting, prompting police to request more officers."
Anyone catch it, it's subliminal messaging in their article. They think that if they slip in "victim's family" we might actually think this OFFENDER was a victim.
Nice try, but I'm hip to your game scum-times. Another one bites the dust
Just watched the noon news...Why are the most ghetto shitheads interviewed...."Man da pooolices shot that boy for no reason, he aint have no gun....wes peoples too" HAHAHA fucking CHA RATS
Cops involved are great guys, hope u guys are ok! Those two on Bt 841 really are the real deal.

Dump Judy Martin? But she is the Domestic Violence specialist! Yes, this is the same broad that demanded that I lock up someone's ex-boyfriend because she got a mean letter in the mail. Of course there was no evidence in the case but that didn't stop that stupid bitch from making demands!!!
8/17/2008 09:22:00 PM
Judy Martin smells like her horse. Take a bath!
008dist 2 Bad guys 0
Another great show of force and a job well down from our brothers in blue. Nice to know when the police do call for help noone is slacking
Bt 841 and 853 hats off to you both. Truly professional hard working coppurs that are some of the nicest guys you will meet. Glad they all came to 008from their units. Us young guys could learn a ton from these guys. Just glad the scene ended the way it should
Big thanks to all the outside help on the scene in 008. Glad to see everyone sticking together in these times of need.
WGN calls it a "tragic shooting" at 45 Lamon
Great Shoot, by a P.O. on scene. Everything was good from start to finish. Even the bosses on scene were good. Believe it or not, the animals on scene were pretty good. There wasn't a single 300 pound 3rd cousin on his baby's momma side that fell out!!!! Take a second though and at least watch the clip on CLTV w/ his homie yelling on how he wasn't even about the streets, he was just riding his bike!!! I still haven't seen his 8th grade photo yet, though, so he couldn't have been that good of a kid.
I think Elvis said it the best: He buys a gun, steals a car (bike), he tries to run, but he don't get far....in the ghetto. As a crowd gathers round an angry young man face down on the street with a gun in his hand...in the ghetto
However, I have to yet see his momma cries. Young lad must not have been that well liked.
That fat little CLTV bitch Randi Belisomo is leading the story off with "shock and outrage in a southwest side neighborhood" and that "police shot and killed a young man citing circumstances neighbors say were not the case at all."
First of all, this isn't as neighborhood. It's a rathole drug emporium where crack, weed and heroin are sold 24/7. Hey, Randi, did you look around at all while you were there? Care to rent one of those cute townhouses? Wanna go on a ride-along with the beat car some hot August night?
Here we have that chubby runt Randi, a product of liberal Northwestern's Medill school of Journalism who lives on the North Side and enjoys golfing and making a "mean risotto" and finds that LeClaire Courts are just one more of the city's delightful neighborhoods where playful young boys riding their tricycles are killed by the big mean cops for fun.
Obama riots are coming!!! Count on it!!! Thanks Chicago media creeps!
Garfield Ridge? ahahhahahahahah the leclaire courts housing projects are garfield ridge? DAMNNNNNNNN. Great job by the copper glad he is ok, screw these ghetto thugs! And as a former 008th district guy, stay safe its a shithole over there. Worst district in the city to work in
HEY thats not Garcia Ridge!!!!
Great to see officers come out on top again. Nice to see people doing police work when the call comes out. Pro-active stuff is over, but legit response to calls is what it's all about these days. The officers involved are all ex-unit guys who have come over to 008and been nothing but great additions.
I only have 2yrs on but am 4th generation and have heard all the BS spewing about unit guys this and unit guys that on this blog and at work. From my experience at least all the ex guys that are in 008 and that I have come across on the street are not anything you all describe on here. They are first car whenever someone is calling for help and usually the first car on scene at most of the 1A calls. They have helped me and several others when we have asked with 0 questions and always are approachable about stuff. After what they all went through it amazes me even more they do shit.
So agian this all just goes to show good police men can never be held down
Ahemmmm! There is NOT a housing projectt in Garfield Ridge! Jeez! I just put my homeup for sale!
I TAKE OFFENSE TO THE STATEMENT THAT LECLAIRE COURTS IS LOCATED IN GARFIELD RIDGE.
Only four words after seeing the scene on tv. GOD HELP US ALL.'That boy a good boy--he don't do nuthin. He be doin good out here.' Or some such ghetto shit talk. The savages were out en masse.
WHERE IN THE HELL IS J-FED????? Did he have anything to say at all???? I am going to do less than I've been doing, which is going to take some real creativity. SCREW THIS JOB!!!
This is too funny- Steve Georges' wife actually monitors this blog and looks for bashings about him. She then posts a bunch of "what a great guy" blogs about him.
THAT'S GREAT
Question, when the department first allowed officers to carry glock's, they had to qualify on their own time. Now the department pays for part of it. Is that fair for the officers who have already gone on their own time? What am I talking about? I just used the word fair regarding something in the city of chicago. In any event if someone can enlighten me on this one I would appreciate it.
"The incident occurred in the CHA’s LeClaire Courts development, according to a source, who said a disturbance, possibly involving neighbors and the victim’s family, erupted shortly after the shooting, prompting police to request more officers."
Anyone who confronts a police officer with a gun in his hand isn't a victim.
ECS
I heard something very interesting today. The focus of Inspectors is going to shift towards writing up supervisors instead of P.O.'s! Uniform infractions and staying down on jobs, etc, is going to be addressed with the bosses because there is a general feeling that sergeants and even Lieutenants have ceased taking any kind of supervisory actions. A few "failure to supervise" beefs might make everybody's lives a bit more miserable.
Also heard that two IAD Lt's got thrown out of the FOP office last week when they went to strip 4 of our elected for failing to qualify. They were told they would be arrested for tresspassing if they ever stepped foot in that building again! Got it from a reliable source, if true, THAT IS SIMPLY OUTSTANDING! They never got to strip our guys. FOP hall is the equivalent of an embassy!
The Trib. shut down the comments section on the blog on this little asshole. Check his rapsheet. He gone! Saved a whole lot of future victims.
God bless our fellow Chicago Police Officer involved in this incident and I thank God he was allowed to continue living his life. He is but one example of the thousands of heroes on our job.
May We All Stay Alert, Stay Safe, Stay Strong, Stay Together, and Always Stay 1/2 Step Ahead of the Bad Guy.
One down...
Chalkie's out there again. Chalkie's the only one kickin ass on this dept.
Who were those goofs from A/1 with their "heavy weapons" preening for the cameras?
You guys really looked tough. NOT.
You must have been the guys that could not get laid in high school. I guess those big guns are just an extension of your little used dicks.
Oh flip.
liked the dim wit with the hat pulled down on NBC5 web coverage talkin up "his" boy. his boy didn't do nothin, his boy didn't hang on the street and a whole load of crap. the little kids bicycle the 18yr old POS was riding was probably stolen. nice to see cops in the frame carrying some real guns for a change too. superior force always rules the day.
The Courts ain't no joke Joe!
They use to fear me back in the day when I would go in ther and give em a Bam with my left and follow it up with a Bam from my right.
Ain't no punk alive that could stand a Bam Bam from me Joe!
Another great job by the 8th District Officers. Thank Gos they are OK
Right on. A good story with a happy ending.
Heard that Antione Walker, supposedly with the Bulls had himself a birthday party at Excalibar with a lot of gangbangers, rival gangs, passed thru Rock & Roll Mc D.s and then tried to shoot the hell out of each other. One in the head and dead, his good friend drove him to St. Rogers Hosp. so his buddy didn't have a chance for survival, who cares.
Biggest concern, not mine, was that is this connected in any way with the Air and Water Show or a concern with the Bulls.

Don't ya mista, when anyone of us dies, we're all diminshed, we're all (sob, sob) victims. And save the children.
I'm a civilian and I live about a half a mile from the courts and I have noticed a stronger police presence around the area today, but I wish it was like that a little more often. I'm glad things didn't get too crazy.
I'm a new supv and I have to tell you that the A/1 dicks went out of there way to look for witnesses, console the shooter, lok for evidence and control the scene. I was impressed and I know other bosses were commenting on their professionalism. Thanks
Snap. Oh NO you didn't. Talking 'bout dem assault weapon toten dicks might git you an azz kickin. Den boyz is the real deal. Dat bees da murder factory crew. They be jumping on all da murders they can when they not be packin dem big gunz.
These guys are the biggest handjobs ever to walk the hallowed halls of A/1. That includes you slimfast, choppers and slingblade.
From the Trib:

"Taylor said Landrum had a 2-year-old daughter and was expecting another child. He planned to attend vocational school in the fall after receiving a GED degree in May."
A tragedy indeed. Discuss....
Great job by the 008 District Officers. So glad to see you all are protecting YOURSELVE'S out there!
LaClaire Courts, is nothing but mutts, and shitheads. Being in housing for years, they barely sent us south, it was a maze of dead ends to try and drive through. But full of shitheads nonetheless.
Good for all of you involved to take down another savage.
Glad you went home safe and sound.
What happened at the Bud Biliken Parade? Where are the defication, urination and fornication statistics? How many people were killed and robbed?
Also, what are the Air and Water Show statistics?
Outstanding police work in LeClaire Courts!

I also see that the guy that constantly misspells "loser" as "looser" is now posting at the Tribune blog.
While the majority of the posters use acceptable spelling and grammar, there are a few posters that really embarrass police officers, particularly with the misuse of homonyms--words pronounced the same but with different meanings and spellings (i.e.: they're, their and there; to, too and two; write, right and Wright; site, sight and cite).
A poster can come up with a cogent comment but the reader blocks it out because of atrocious misspellings which suggest the author is stupid.
Perhaps SCC could devote just one thread to identify the most common errors by poor spellers who probably excel in other ways.
Also, some people post a long link which cannot be downloaded with a mere mouse click so it's ignored. How does a poster format a link so the reader can merely link up with a click?
I'm not trying to nitpick. I'm only offering sincere constructive criticism to improve an outstanding blog site.
With respect, I thank you.
Things were ugly until those guys racked one into the shotguns.... I thank them for showing up and pulling them out....

Sorry, not by a longshot, pick a district in area 2 except 022 and you would be correct, other than volume of calls, 008 isn't even close. great job by BY the dimaond tho!
Leclaire courts are NOT part of the Garfield Ridge neighborhood.
May as well be.....
Big thanks to LT C.E. of the 3rd watch. At least some bosses still appreciate good police work. Thanks for standing up for those involved we appreciate it. Stand up boss for sure.
bahahahhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!
perfect
According to the official City of Chicago neighborhood map page http://egov.cityofchicago.org/webportal/COCWebPortal/COC_EDITORIAL/commarea_name_1.pdf Leclaire Courts is NOST DEFINITELY in Garfield Ridge. Hey....I'm not crazy about it either.
I would like to thank All my brothers in blue who responded to my call for help.
1st time I ever called a 10-1.
I was very proud about "our" response.
Citywide,Northside,Southside,black coppers,white coppers and mexicans,who cares!
We are the same team blue.
I cannot describe the feeling of pride when I observed coppers who did not even know me,sliding up sideways in thier cars.
I also would like to thank Sgt. Gade and Sepulveda for their guidance.
FOP Frankie D, I cant thank you enough.
I send a special call out to Rhino,Russ and my guys on 853. Come with it MF's.
The job has changed but not the people.
I would go through a door with you guys any day.

Gee, you that JEALOUS that you're incited to tear off on a venomous rant because an Area heavy Weapons team excercised good judgment& brought additional firepower to a potential violatile situation?
Dude get some help quickly, it's obvious you have some emotional issues & are severely imbalanced.
Did you read they had to quell an angry mob afterwards?[...]
And that is different then every other night how?

I have always felt that once you make rank your membership in FOP should be terminated. If they want the fraternal benefits then join the state or national lodge.

To all of you who are outraged that LeClaire Courts is being referred to as Garfield Ridge...if you look at published neighborhood maps, Gar Ridge does actually extend that far east in a narrow section. Scary huh ?
Leclaire courts are NOT part of the Garfield Ridge neighborhood.
**I found it offensive that they listed that shithole as garfield ridge.

Dump the 1st watch Captain. He sucks and would fit in better somewhere north. Get out of 8 asshole.
I was on the scene the night of the shooting, great work by the BT 841 coppers, great bosses, and the dics were excellent! The back up was awesome! Whoever the jerkoff is sayn shit about the dics havn heavy weapons on them, stay in your NORTH side District! It's obvious u weren't there, because if u were u would understand, you should be ashamed of yourself and god help u if I knew who u were!
Watch your front sight and squeeze.
Hey jerkoffs, look at any chicago neighborhood map. Leclaire courts are part of garfield ridge. Face it, accept it, and live with it. Stevenson espressway south to 59th st. - cicero to Harlem. THE ARMPIT OF THE SOUTH SIDE!!

Not yet.
Le Clare Courts a "neighborhood"??
A hood of hoods, perhaps.
The word "neighborhood" implies a level of civility.
Ask that idiot reporter to walk thru there without her entourage, unarmed and off-duty.
She would be safer walking in deepest, darkest, most predatory fulled jungles of Africa and Asia with a raw steak around her neck than in LCC.
Diamond Dave,
No need for the thanks brotha. We had you back from the start. Total team effort. Big thanks to all the supervisors on the scene from 008 and the assisting units. Great to see everyone coming to help us all out. Great to have great bosses and detectives on your side. It's nice to know some people still look out for their brothers in blue.
See you all at the next one

Garfield Ridge is gonna look like 63rd & kedzie in about 5-10 years. Then maybe 30 years after that some yuppies might move in and try to gentrify your shit neighborhood.
The shit is moving west. Every year I see it move further and further west. There is nothing you can do to stop it. Maybe if you coppers that live out there stopped letting your daughters date gangbangers and letting your sons dress like they're from englewood, (dont deny it, I work there and see it every day, "My daddy is the police" while dressed looking like a ghetto thug.) then maybe scumbag gangbangers wouldn't feel comfortable in your neighborhood.
Garfield Ridge stretches from Pershing Road, just north of the Stevenson Expressway (Interstate 55), to 59th Street from north to south, and from the railroad 1/4 mile east of Cicero Avenue to Harlem Avenue going west, with Archer Avenue as its main artery.
"Hi sir, Yes it's me again Capt. Dik....No sir, I don't know why they took off that posting of our conversation....Yes, I will do my best to eliminate any sort of morale that is left in the 008th District....You have my word, I will bleed these hard working coppers out of any and all desire to do any sort of police work....Yes sir I will crawl back under my desk now and hope that nobody actually comes in here and calls me out for an Ass Hat!!!

Good work little buddy. Take your time coming back you ain't missing nothing hear. Stay home and enjoy your time w/ your family.

Then you look at mount greasewood and what is there? The animals are there on a regular basis robbing, and stealing so your point is? And what about the animals renting and buying homes as the parents die and the kids cannot sell the homes and then the animals move there look at kedzie from 103-111 and the surrounding areas is it better? NO!
Great job now will the animals living at this zoo be quiet? Hope the city tears this shit down soon!

Chip with a mustache...officially will become the cop in The Village People...good job diamond d. and glad all are safe. you have earned a bologna handshake sire.
"This is Capt. Dik. How can I help you?....Wait, no what do you mean, Mr. Mayor?....I have done everything that you asked of me....But, But, But Mr. Mayor why must I accept another spanking....Yes, sir you are right. There are a few coppers left in the 008th District that enjoy being the police....Yes sir, I am a failure. I will try better next time....No sir, I will not tell the coppers from the shooting that they did a hell of a job, but I will remind them that they took too damn long on that paperwork and round table. Have a nice day Mr. Mayor."
Glad u coppers in 008 are OK, but you tools need to let go of the To-From type messages to each other on this site about this legit shooting. And the nicknames have got to go. "Diamond Dave"??? "Malibu"??? Are you guys coppers or wannabe male strippers? Again...great job. We're all glad no copper hurt or killed. But you guys obviously haven't seen much action. Save the ass-grabbin', war stories and accolades for your buddies and the broads you're trying to fuck.
GEES the CHEESE is in blog is killing me!!.....DIAMOND Dave?? I hope you are joking! I know "Diamond" Dave is writing most of these excerpts here.......What a great copper.... we look up to him......what a great guy....hes the best....ENOUGH ALL READY! if your going to write about yourself at least make it some what believable. A child pointed a gun at you and you did what we were trained to do and what 99.9% of the officers would do...shoot him. Good job, but end of story. SCC...time to scrape of all the CHEESE from this post!

Coming from thet guy that doesn't want to put his name. He ass hat I am sure that is just thier way of saying thanks and putting a signature on it without giving name to the public. They weren't patting their chests nor grabbing for attention like yousrself starting with the "I HAVE BEEN IN A FEW" title. Seen much action??????? are you kidding me. You sir are a tool!
Shows what kind of a jag coppur you ar to rag on some coppurs for actuallky saying thanks to everyone who was there and showed up along with attaching a signature so those who know them know who it was. Unlike youi coward self who refuses to identify himself. Go back to your one bag pinches superstar. If you really were in a few then you know the importance of a thanks. I am sure you are the loan ranger shootin everyone you see with a gun and monday night qb'n those in one. GO GET FUCKED ASSHAT! I am sure you are the one telling stories. I know for a fact one of those involved has been in 4 or five and another in at least 4. Only they ain't pounding their chests like yourself. What you need another fist bump?
I love all those cute 008th district nicknames....diamond dave, rhino, malibu, bitch-body (eric c.), aqua-knockers, saul, red devil, the wheel, jarod (from subway), the sepul-verisor, bobby O-my-god, the silver fox, mo-licious, carlton flisk, snowball, chip, bubba..........

F ye sire. Who the hell are you. A good man killed a monster. Who cares if it is a "child" (and it wasn't). Why that hate? You remind me of a supervisor who wasn't invited to the latest function. Relax. Same team. I read alot and agree with alot, especially in the 008th, but get off the backs. Your a great cop. Good for ya tough guy, but my guy malibu, diamond, fu-manchu dave, snuffed out a bad guy.

wow. you got some real balls. first off diamond dave which has been his nickname before he even came on the job has been in three shooting of bad guys so far in his career. im sure you are not even close. dave is one of the most well liked people in the department and on the watch. dave has been p.o. of the month several times(which im sure you never got) and has been awarded numerous times. stop talking sh*t about a real policeman. im sure you some "cool" west side copper who has been on the job for 2 minutes and only knows the new way of policing but you have no idea how to be the real police...we were never in the fbi task force or detailed to the dea or any stupid sh*t like that....just gangs...sos..and patrol.. thats right, i said patrol and involved in 3 shootings. you got nothing loser, go back to pretending to be the police...great job DIAMOND DAVE!!

Your right, I am NOT even close to being the caliber police "Diamond-dork" Dave is. I guess if you get in a shooting (whippee), stay on the medical half your career, then your da real police.
As for me, I have locked up more homicide offenders, burglar's, agg batt offenders then you ever have! So suck on that ASSHAT!
"Diamonds" are for WOMEN........I guess the name fits.
you idiots in 008 are better at crying about the job then doing it. waaaaaaaaaaaaaa. your like overpaid traffic cops. 008 dist is known for fucking over cops on everything..traffic/domestics/parking tix.... 2 idiot cops shot a kid good job. go get some new nicknames you morons......waaaaaaaa
As for the jagoff who has something to say to my partner Diamond Dave, make yourself know. I have known him my entire career, and I haven't known anyone to dislike him. However, apparently he beat your ass in high school and fucked your cheerleader sister. Well, if in fact you have something to actually say about Diamond Dave why don't you make yourself known...ASSHAT!!! And then we can talk it over like men use to.
Signed,
R.W. Bt.841
What can I say? I am not sure where this whole shit talking thing about Diamond Dave evolved from, but I would really like the person (s) involved w/ it to step up, and tell us who you are. Don't hide behind the comment. Stand up like a man and state your case. If not, then crawl back into your little shell and go fuck yourself. If you simply hate the fact that he has more friends than you, then just say it. As for you thinking that he would have wrote comments about himself on here to boost himself up to impress others, you are a freaking idiot.

What the fuck is your problem? Your fellow coppers are here supporting each other for a job well done and you're gonna come on here and call them idiots and overpaid traffic cops! Maybe you should leave your northside district where you do absolutely nothing and come to 008 and show us how to be the police. Let me guess.....you live on the west end of 008, you once got a parking ticket from a cop in 008 for a legit offense (probably tints), you assume that the police in 008 do nothing but go out and try to jam up coppers, you are fat, ugly, and have a baby dick. That sounds right, huh?
I bet you work in a district that doesnt have too many police residents. Numerous times have I put my career on the line to help out off-duty coppers and their idiot kids. I dont know one single copper in 008 that has ever "fucked over" an off-duty. I have seen a few off-duty coppers that have fucked themselves over and then blamed the police just like the animal does every single day. you, sir, are the idiot!
So a couple of you guys in 008 get called to a "Man with a gun" and wind up killing dude. So what? You did what your job required you to do to go home safely. Quit pounding your chests like a bunch of high school football players who won in overtime. No one's impressed with your nicknames. Give it a rest.
P.S. The ONLY "Diamond Dave" was the frontman for Van Halen
P.S.S. Say "hello" to Goose, Maverick and Iceman when you see them. ...Fuckin' tools...
hahahahahahaha that idiot said he doesnt fuck over off duty cops. you, moron just said giving a cop a ticket for tints is a legit thing. real cops dont give cops tickets not even for your legit reason of tint windows. real cops go after bad guys and no matter what. unless a murder let cops go. stick to what you 008 dist cops do best crying and writing cops tix for tint windows you idiot.go get your nicknames together and do a wolfpack or whatever you morons call it in 008. hahahahahahaha hey "rhino" how was your 30 day hit. you asshat
Have it Better Than Most said...
TO: It's total bullshit that beat cops have to wait for follow-up units to bring in "heavy" weapons. I guess the beat cops have to call "stop play" until the Calvary arrives.

I give the area 1 guys a big Kudos for showing up and doing what they are supposed to do. That being said, I also agree with the above poster that there should already be provisions for the district people. That detective unit could be tied up on another job or otherwise not available. Give us the equipment

-----------------------------------
I'm a cop with the Memphis PD. I'd like to ask any of my fellow cops with CPD what your weapons policy is.
From what I can gather from this blog, it seems that CPD officers are given a choice of being able to carry either a 9mm or a .45 caliber pistol but only a few shotguns are at the precincts, with dics deploying with those when officers call for help. Also, I've seen that there is some kind of PT test you have to pass to carry an AR-15, but apparently there aren't very many of those out with officers either.
Have the powers-that-be given you any reason for these decisions, logical or otherwise? The reason I ask is because I'm curious. We had a similar situation before.
Our current duty handguns, alternate duty handguns and back-up guns are all DAO type weapons. We have been lucky enough that MPD issues Rem. 870 shotguns, with 00 Buck rounds, for all uniform patrol cars, no matter whether it is a one or two-man car. They've done that forever. When they give the class, if you can get into it, you can qualify to carry slugs too.
However, about 2000, MPD purchased about 100 AR-15s to give out to uniform patrol officers. It wound up taking about 6 years to get them released to uniform patrol (only happened after 6 of our officers had a shoot-out with a couple of suspects, one of which had an AR-15). The only reason we ever got from higher ups was that our deputy director at that time didn't consider ARs as a police weapon and wouldn't sign off on them being issued to patrol officers. However, he had no problem with our TACT/SWAT officers being issued fully automatic M-16s and MP-5 subguns.
By the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the City and our Memphis Police Assn (MPA), we have no say in what equipment we are issued, be it firearms, radios, vehicles, etc.
Are CPD officers stuck in the same situation?

I agree that cops shouldnt ticket other cops regardless, but how do you know its a coppers car if its parked. Every other car on the west end have a friggin fop medallions, most of which are not the police or family. Just lose the tints, hood rat. And by the way, tough guy, Who the fuck do you think you are, chuck norris? you must be a real crime fighting bad-ass. I bet you are in an elite unit and have received numerous awards. You live in an awesome neighborhood with 10 coppers on every block. I also bet that you wear lots of hair gel and have a barb-wire tattoo around one of your huge bicepts and you go tanning at least twice a week. hahahahaha!
Now that is funny! you are a fucking toolbag stroke! And you talk shit about Ryno???? One of few good ones left in 008. Get a clue. you suck. your neighborhood sucks. Oh, keep those tints on. There will be a parker double stuck on your windshield every friggin night.
To 8/24/2008 12:31:00A.M. I'm sure you are a fucking pussy, come to roll call on the 3rd Watch and ask for Rhino, he will gladly discuss this matter w/you. Don't hide behind a computer, be a man. Unfortunately we do have cowards on this job, and you are one of them!
