J-Fed Says We're Insignificant
Golly, we better shut down the site and go home.
Usually, we avoid National Public Radio like the plague. Leftist lib-tard programming for persons unable to think, reason or form a cognizant thought, all subsidized by tax dollars! NPR (and Amtrak) ought to be cut loose from public funding - they'd be bankrupt in a month and the country would save millions.
Someone pointed out that on the Eight Forty-Eight program, they had one-on-one with J-Fed on 15 September. Most of it was canned Q&A (Abbate, SOS, Ardeleen, etc), but then the host asked about Department morale (at 13:40 on the counter) and J-Fed replied thus:

- "I don't put a lot of stock in the blogs. We have thirteen-and-a-half thousand officers and about sixteen thousand people. When you see 234 comments posted, that sampling is pretty insignificant, statistically."
J-Fed also commented about the "lies" posted "by the blog." That is in itself a lie as we never posted word one about him running DUI checkpoints - that was a reader's comment and it was pretty much debunked after it went up. J-Fed can't be seen admitting he reads the blog, but he can spread his own misinformation. So typical of a fed.
We'll admit, 234 comments is statistically insignificant. We actually do about 400 comments daily and that's still insignificant compared to 13,500 officers. Here's what's not insignificant though Jody:
That's a little snapshot of the past twelve months of the blog. 2.3 MILLION visits in the last twelve months, 1.8 MILLION this year alone. Five of the last six months topped 200,000 and we'll do it again in September. Every single bit of it while BANNED on Department computers. Did you notice the front page of the web edition of the Sun Times yesterday? A direct link to the blog referencing Prayers for the Children. TEN THOUSAND visits yesterday. Someone thinks we're significant.
Here's a challenge J-Fed. If we're so insignificant, take the filters off. You'll never let it happen of course. You'll remain true to type, stuck in the Catch-22 not entirely of your own making, but stuck none the less. Keep thinking cops communicating Citywide is "insignificant" though. Who knows, maybe we are.

I've siad it before and I'll keep saying it.........
NEVER, EVER TRUST A FED.........
Retired in 2003.....Thank God...
J-FED IS SUFFERING FROM BOTOX POISON!
HE LIES LIKE A RUG
HE LIED TO US
THE CITY COUNCIL
THE FOP
YOU DONT SEE ANY LINKS TO THE "OFFICIAL cpd web site.
WHAT KINDA OF NEW RELEASE HAS HE COME UP WITH...
OFFICERS CANT DRINK
HE WANTS TO CHANGE THE COLOR OF SQUAD CARS
HE LIKES TAHOES
SILLY GUN TURN INS FOR B B GUNS
HE HAS NO BALLS TO FIRE ANYONE HIMSELF.
OFFICER R FAT
GPS TRACKING
OH HES ON THE BALL AND HE LOOKS LIKE HIS BODY TONE IS STARTING TO FLAB UP. TO MANY LATE NIGHT WITH BEA? CAN HE PASS THE POWER TEST!
I DONT THINK HE COULD DO THE RUN...
SCC/ Because of you the under dog has a chance. I made a complaint about the lock up on this blog, it was read by a watch commander who immediately brought it to the attention of the district commander. Guess what no more problem, because they fixed the problem fearing scrutiny from downtown.
This blog has put the merit pukes in there places, it has been a news worthy outlet for every member of the department. Its better than the 24 hour reports because this blog serves a useful purpose for the working man and woman of this department.
J-fed..is right. You are insignificant. Now, let me get back to feltching, and posting comments supporting the brass so I can keep my cushy secretary w/a gun job.
Hey J-weisel insignificant is in your pants little man. I'm writing Santa to put a coal in your stocking.
I think the Dept's blocking of "Quick Stats" is pretty SIGNIFICANT!
What is that? Communist China?
j-fed must not read the blog cuz m.t. is still around with all the baggage he carries. giving the idea to change the fto districts great idea mr.deputy!
Maybe there wouldn't be such a need for this site if:
1. Jody didn't run this department by press release. We learn what's going on one of two ways, either from this site or from the newspaper. Despite his promises to remedy the situation, Jody continues to dismiss us and just issues press releases. This is how we found out about the new SUVs, the reorganization of the department (several times now) and the plan to make us pass some arbitrary physical in order to become properly armed.
2. Give us a contract, since we've been without one for fifteen months now. A raise, that actually doesn't insult us, considering county workers just got, what, sixteen percent?
3. Stop playing the part of the kid who got sand kicked in his face when he was little, running to his Fed friends every single time he can't control the situation where he works. Get over it.
We all know the Feds look down on us and belittle us. They don't know how to kick a door or chase the shooter through somebody's front door and out the back, jumping the porch rail and holding off the 'innocent' bystanders who jump on us while we're effecting the arrest. They don't DO what we do, but somebody thought he could tell us how to do it BETTER. A little humility would go a long way right about now.
I've got about a dozen more, but these three would surely HELP.
But it's easier to call this Department INSIGNIFICANT. And that's what he really thinks about us. We're just his winning lottery ticket.
i think j-fed is really det. shavedlongcock? you never see them together!
I LOVE YOU
J-Fed is a reactionary superintendent. He believes that we should attack only the worst gang, not the gang we get info on. That gang we get info on and don't act on will eventually become the worst gang. We need to be proactive instead of reactive...but it won't happen with all of the new attempts to get the police in trouble.
He has also stated that he just wants the people to feel safe. Fuck feel safe...I want to be safe.
Even worse, J-Fed went on to say... Now that Shavedlongcock's blog, there is a real blog. But most of all, I just like saying the name for some reason.
No offense SCC but if we worked for a professional department where competent people were promoted and backroom deals were the exception not the rule the rank and file wouldnt have such a need to use your site. Because most of what would be put on here would be common knowledge. Like your site or not. You do provide a useful service most of the time.
"I don't put a lot of stock in the blogs. We have thirteen-and-a-half thousand officers and about sixteen thousand people. When you see 234 comments posted, that sampling is pretty insignificant, statistically."
Stated Jody...
First of all, show us where exactly these 13,500 officers are! I'm not talking about 13,500 paychecks, or 13,500 in a budget. I want to see the actual 13,500 individual officers! And no, boss, counting Officer Smith, assigned to Dist 026, but detailed to Unit 123 does not count as TWO OFFICERS!
Morale SUCKS! Ask damn near any Beat Cop, Dic, Cop in a unit, over half of your Sgts, and a good portion of the Lt's. This place BLOWS!
The Supt talked about "transparency" to some of the exams. Well, we got it, just not where he wanted it! Cause now we see through his bullshit!
So, Judas-Fed, your soul costs $310K a year for 3 years. At least we know your price. Some here have sold it for cheaper!
13,500 ????
Hey JPUD, Just Like Your "Real Policing Skills", Your Mathematics Count On Manpower Are Non Existent Too !
Ain't The REAL NUMBER Around 9,500?
OOPS, I Forgot, That's The Number Your Puppetmaster The "Stuttering Prick" Wants You To Use Right ?
I'm Calling My Bookie To Collect On The Bet I Placed Long Ago.
I Won Some Good Money By Saying JPUD Did Read This Blog, When He Was Quoted As Saying He Did Not.
We All Know He Does Now Don't we?
Reading Is Fundemental Might You Say JPUD?
Stay Safe, Shoot Straight, Back Each Other Up ALWAYS
"I don't put a lot of stock in the blogs. We have thirteen-and-a-half thousand officers and about sixteen thousand people. When you see 234 comments posted, that sampling is pretty insignificant, statistically."
----------
Well, I can say this.. AND IT'S NOT A LIE.. 9 out of 10 officers I speak to say they are DONE with doing "pro-active police work".
They will be as "non-aggressive" as possible when doing the job.
YOU CAN TAKE THAT TO THE BANK J-Fed.
HE DAMN WELL KNOWS IT!!!!
Why else would he be going to all the rollcalls and begging us be aggressive??? Even with GPS in the cars we can work smarter and stay out of trouble to avoid crap.
Someone gets shot in front of me; I'll just do a U-Turn and look the other way. Then, I'll come around the corner after 5 minutes and vounteer to do the paper and take 4 hours to finish it..
Soooooo.. BITE ME!!!!!
dear mr j-fed, you better think this thru a little more seriously. before the japs bombed pearl harbor their were red flags and attempts were made to notify the upper echelon thru chain of command that something was amiss. we all know what happened, it was just a few guys who were seeing things and it was ignored or passed on down the line. so j-fed, just 200 or so comments among 16000 may be a harbinger of things to come and maybe you should take notice before it is to late.
jfed you are so full of shit. So many P.O.'s log on to SCC. It's to the point were i have see desk crews beating your bullshit filter. So they can watch videos like the one on gangs or read a post. While seated in front of the public and district personal. Wake up dumb ass every one looks at this site including you and your puppets.
Remember "Baghdad Bob"--Muhammad Saeed al-Sahhaf? He was Saddam's minister of propaganda who consistently made preposterous denials of the facts.
I'd buy a used car from that clown al-Sahhaf before giving any credibilty to Weis.
Either J-Fed is delusional or he must realize that denial is not just a river in Egypt.
The NPR interview offers incontrovertible evidence that this arrogant "empty suit" considers the CPD rank and file as damned fools.
As "the captain of the Titanic" raves on, may God bless Second City Cop, the Internet and the First Amendment!
J-Fed will be gone very soon.His posturing does not mean shit to anyone.Typical bullshit from a empty-headed suit.Hey,J-Fed go on Fox News with Bill O'Reilly or Sean Hannity and undergoe some tough Q&A.
MAYOR, PLEASE LOOK AT HOW THIS NEW SUPERINTENDENT THAT YOU PAY MORE THAN 4 P.O.'S SALARY TOGETHER, HAS ALONE, SCREWED UP THE DEPARTMENT. PLEASE REPLACE HIM!!! AFTER SIX MONTHS, WHAT HAS THIS IDIOT DONE THAT WARRANTS YOU KEEPING HIM ON, BESIDES SPEND THE CITY'S 300,000 PLUS DOLLARS AND BRING IN EVERY FRIEND HE HAS FROM THE FBI. HE HAS SURROUNDED HIMSELF WITH THE TRULY STUPID AND THOSE THAT JUST HAVE NO CLUE WHAT TO DO AT THIS POINT.
AT THIS POINT MAYOR, REACH BACK TO THE OLD SUPERINTENDENTS AND LOOK FOR A WAY TO FIX THIS. I REALLY THINK THIS IS THE BEGINNING OF THE END OF A GREAT DEPARTMENT THAT WILL SUFFER FOR DECADES BECAUSE OF THIS GUY'S STUPIDTY. I DON'T WANT TO HEAR OF ANOTHER TRAGIC END, NOR OF AN INNOCENT CHILD SHOT BECAUSE SUPER STUPID HAS IMPLEMENTED THE MOST DEMORALIZING TACTICS OF ANY POLICE DEPARTMENT, THEN SAY, GO OUT THERE AND WORK HARDER! WHY DON'T YOU AND YOUR FBI BUDDIES AT A MINIMUM, GO THROUGH THE ACADEMY, WORK THE STREET, AND SEE WHAT WE ENDURE DAILY, THEN WORK 2 PART TIME JOBS TO PUT YOUR KIDS IN A PRIVATE SCHOOL SO THE GANG BANGERS WON'T TARGET THEM SINCE YOU ARE NOT HOME WHEN THEY GET OUT OF SCHOOL, HAVE A GAME OR PARENT MEETING. REMEMBER, YOU WORK 3RD WATCH. BY THE TIME YOU CAN GET DAYS, YOUR CHILDREN WILL BE IN COLLEGE AND YOUR WIFE WILL BE ON HER 3RD BOYFRIEND DUE TO YOUR NEGLECT AND BITTERNESS.
THATS RIGHT, THROUGH ALL THE PLASTIC SURGERIES, YOU DON'T HAVE ANY CHILDREN, AND SINCE YOU BRING HOME 25,000 PLUS EACH MONTH, YOUR WIFE GETS TO SHOP IT UP AND PLASTIC SURGERY IT UP. YOU MAKE YOUR OWN SCHEDULE AND WHEN IS THE LAST TIME YOU OR MIKE MASTERS SWIPED? WHEN IS THE LAST TIME YOR SECRETARY SWIPED, WHOS SPENDS THE MAJORITY OF HER DAY SURFING THE WEB?
I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THE SWIPE RECORDS FOR THE FIRST DEPUTY AND ALL DEPUTY SUPERINTENDENTS!!! STANDING AROUND THE MANY WEEKLY HOMICIDE SCENES DOING NOTHING DOES NOT CONSTITUTE GOOD POLICE WORK OR SUPPORT FOR YOUR TROOPS. YOU ARE IN THE WAY, GO THE FUCK HOME AND TAKE MIKE MASTERS WITH YOU. JUST BECAUSE YOU WEAR A VEST, DOES NOT MAKE YOU LOOK LIKE THE POLICE. YOU LOOK LIKE AN IDIOT, WEARING A VEST!
You know damn well SCC that every exempt member is familiar with SecondCityCop. I have personally heard many exempts as well as Sgt/Lt/Capt's speak about your blog and information that has been published on it.
Now one can say whatever they want about the importance of a source of information but the true tell all of its importance is its ability to disseminate information to a large group of people. And SCC is read department wide throughout the ranks. Now add the non-department member readers from new media reporters, spouses and love ones of department members, cop news groupies and many others... well unlike the Sun-Times, the Tribune and many other sources of information, I have yet to hear you say that SCC laid anybody off, your financially in the red, your cutting the number of posts or your readership is down.
You were one of the first or first to blog the CPD, your posts are factually correct, you expose the problems and concerns that others won't and you remain a gentleman while doing it.
So let them say whatever they want as they usually do but your visitors and loyal followers know how vastly needed and important your informational blog is to all of us. And no graphs, no stats or numbers are needed for anybody to know that.
13,500 officers my ass! He better do a re-count it's more like 9,500 stupid! I know that's the number that the citizens like to here, but don't lie to us nimrod!!!!
G-Man speak with forked tongue.
Yeah, the blog is insignificant. That's why they know the number of comments that are posted. Just like a politician. They give you a number to prove their point (just two hundred comments out of over thirteen thousand officers.)
The real story is in how many people view the blog, how many cops there really are (not 13000) and what the morale really is. They twist facts and numbers for their purposes. SCC countered that with the real story.
Now I have a question or two. What are the real numbers as far as crime stats this year? How does the fact that the city will only offer one percent as a raise affect morale and, as a result, the amount and type of work being done by officers?
How does the reverends' and other political whores' influence reduce the police desire to stick their necks out while doing the job they are supposed to be doing?
Why doesn't the department or ASA prosecute false accusations against police? Why is there no money for raises, but plenty of money for GPS, cameras and all the other hair brained crap that they want to force on the cops?
Any answers? I thought not. Well maybe you can ask your master what to say and let us have the answers at the next "fireside chat" with the patrolmen and supervisors.
Hey Jody , Fuck your insignificant self . You and your Pal Feds have fucked this Dept. up so bad it will never recover. Oh , and by the way. God , you have a big fuckin' head with nothing in it .
9/17/2008 03:31:00 AM
Go back inside to White Hen and scratch more lottery tickets. Stop wearing that stupid windbreaker.
When did we go back to 13,500 officers J-Fraud??????? I could have sworn the city finally admitted we were down at least 1,500 officers. I know I didn't see a mass hiring. I know I haven't seen a ton of new faces wearing blue shirts in the ghetto.
Morale is in the toliet!!!!! Anyone can look at the faces of 90% of the dept and you can see defeat in their eyes. The majority of officers (those are people who work the street, not house mouses) are just going through the motions. I'm happy to get my check on the 1st and 16th. I do what I have to do and nothing more.
I have to say the number 1 reason morale is in the toliet is the double standard of discipline. Cozzi is suspended for 2 years and pleads guilty to a misdemeanor. He is now charged federally for a bullshit battery. Sgt G. Breimon is caught on film doing what he is accused of (forcing a girl to remove her top in a Sgt's Suad car so Sgt Perv can take pictures. He gave a false statement to the dics. Where is his rule 14 violation?) and never missed a check. Sgt G. Breimon now has full duty status back and will make Lt.
Suck on that J-Fraud!!!!!!!! Breimon's clout (Mom was Deputy Chief) is the difference in discipline on this dept. Why don't you try and disprove that to a working class officer!!! It can't be done!!!!!!!!
I said it before, J-Fed was only hired by SHortshanks to police the police, that's all. Shortshanks thought that crime will continue to go down regardless of the fact that manpower is low by many retiring and not hiring enough candidates to fill those vacancies thus saving the city money. Well he was completely wrong. CPD has been recognized nationwide and overseas over the last five years as a department that has been kicking ass and taking names against crime. Which is one of the reasons it put us on the map as a contender for the olympics. But all those dreams are going down the toilet for the midget.
I put soooo much stock in SCC!
SCC, you're like my bible, my school and my entertainment all wrapped into one.
When I read your site I'm often amazed, elated and I always learn something.
When I look at J-Fed I just laugh. Not because he looks goofy but because he's a joke at this point.
I dunno what's sinking faster? The US economy or the CPD?
Can the Feds please take us over too?!
PS - But if we get the 10 hour day or schedule change I'll love J-Fed...love him!!!!!!
This reminds me of the story "The Emperor's New Clothes". In that story the Emperor tries to convince the public that something exists which really isn't there. Only after one small child points out the truth does the public then come to realize it too.
SCC may be one voice but it speaks to the masses with significance. Emperor J-Fed must be feeling chilly, he just doesn't want anyone to know it.
Someone is upset. You need a hug SCC?
J-Feds success rate in crime fighting and leadership is insignificant.
Oh, yeah. Kiss my ass Daley.
That is all.
The blog is great. However don't get an overinflated sense of self either.
And NPR isn't bad, you just have to take it like everything else - in context.
EVERYONE KNOWS DAMN WELL ALL EXEMPTS AND CAPTAINS READ THE BLOG DAILY
No offense SCC but if we worked for a professional department where competent people were promoted and backroom deals were the exception not the rule the rank and file wouldnt have such a need to use your site.

And where on earth is this Utopia?
Dear SCC
I was hoping I could use your forum to get something started
A few years back we all received the “Crime Reduction” awards, and although back then there was a lot of back and forth feelings about them I think they mean more now, than they’ve ever did in the past. I would like every officer who received it to wear them everyday and why? For two reasons.
1) To remind all of the officers of the outstanding job that they do everyday and the outstanding legacy that they have created. That ribbon symbolizes everything we officers are capable of doing when allowed to do what we do best, clean up the streets, fight crime and make this city a better place to live. Anyone who has worked the streets then and now can attest to that. The only way crime goes down is because of us officers and we all have it in us. So to every officer who feels down never forget we were great once ..we will be great again.
2) And more importantly as a reminder to the Mayor, to J-Fed, the new OPS and more importantly the all the idiots who have never spent ONE SINGLE DAY wearing the uniform, but think they know how the dept should be run. A reminder to just how much damage they have done to this department and in turn to this city. That all they’ve managed to do is break the morale and the spirits of the hard working officers who busted their asses to bring this city from being called the “Murder capitol of the country” to bringing the murder rate lower than it had been in the years. Every time they see a ribbon I want them to be reminded of all the innocent blood that has been spilt, blood that is on THEIR HANDS, blood that could have been avoided if they would have just had the integrity to stand up in the face of few scandals and say.
“Yes a few officers have done wrong but there are always a few bad apples in a bunch and when we find them we deal with them. But the actions of a few should never reflect the whole and the Chicago Police Department is filled with honest hard working dedicated officers who put their lives on the line EVERY DAY to ensure the safety of this city and while we will remain vigilant in our efforts to weed out the few who stray from the path we will not tarnish the hard work that honest officers do every day to make this city as safe as it is.” It’s called integrity, it’s called honesty and calling it like it is. When those scandals broke we endured, we kept making arrests, we kept coming to work doing what we do best. We put responsibility squarely where it belonged, on the Officers who committed those acts instead of blaming the entire department for their moral lapses.
But they folded like a house of card and what happened, in less then a year the city is worse off than it’s been in years… and that’s all on them. You wanted this police force, well now you have it and everything that goes with it, cameras, GPS’s, Inspectors writing up the littlest things, the Cozzie BS, and all the other stupid decisions that have done nothing but send this city in the arms of crime and violence like never before. And last time I checked there are still scandals breaking, so good job with that.
So I would like every officer to wear their ribbon, let us be united in the knowledge that WE know how to get the job done and I want the administration to KNOW just SIGNIFICANT we are and how incompetent they are and just how much they have failed this department and this city.
Please, Please, move along please.
There is nothing to see hear.
jody says to just move it along, hop into your new cruisers and go out there and get the bad guys. And Make sure you BEA agressive!
Unfortunately, SCC, J-Fed has a point you haven't refuted. Even 400 comments doesn't constitute much of a representative sample when you don't know if all of those are cops, and how many of those are the same cops. It might be helpful if you could note how many unique users are using the blog per day. These issues are difficult to refute when people understandably wish to remain anonymous, but I wouldn't get into statistical games with the department unless you really know statistics. In short, unless you wanted to identify your sample (fat chance) and demonstrate that you are drawing some substantial proportion of the department's rank and file to your site, it's not really an argument you can win. Not that I'm calling you insignificant--but don't mistake statistical insignificance for other kinds. Technically, he misused the term since "significance" is used but "insignificance" is NOT perhaps because it connotes that a finding of non-significance implies "insignificance," which is naturally doesn't. But with respect to samples, significance hasn't been tested here, so the real question is representativeness, as I've stated above. How many cops are here, and how representative are they of all cops working for the CPD? As I've said, I'm not sure that's a question you'll be able to answer. Hope this helps.

a federal employee (not not a fed)
SInce we are so insignificant I want to take this moment to post something that I know wont be seen by anyone since noone reads this blog and we as a police department are insignificant.
The FTO program which has been on life support for quite some time finally has been taken off its machines and is about to die.
The powers that be have made the decision to change the training process and change the lives of many men and women who have devoted alot of their time and efforts into training new police officers right out of the academy.
Yes I will admit at times the program has shown a lack of productivity and thats because this program that never got the attention that it deserved in the first place was not given a chance to flourish.
I know the big bosses read this blog and I want to make my notification to them in this manner since my several attempts at a phone call have never been answered.
Because of a lack of funds its my understanding we wont be hiring any police officers for sometime. But to put a dagger into the heart of the FTO program instead of trying to repair it is a crucial mistake. There are going to be resignations of FTO s , and most of these are forced because like me alot of officers are forced to work certain hours so they can take care of their families.
And when I say take care of their families I mean more than bringing home a paycheck. I mean taking your child to school everyday and picking your child up. Sitting down and doing homework with that child, or going on field trips with your childs class. Attending school assemblies so your child sees you in the audience and knows that my dad, or mom is there for me and cares.
What I am saying is that you have affected alot of lives in many ways. And what you have done is a mistake.
A while back there were a group of us that were called into the academy to give our opinions on what would improve the FTO program and we gave our opinions. We never were in it for the extra $35 a paycheck, we did it because we enjoyed it and wanted to do it.
The decision to scrap the program is a bad one and one that will effect this dept for a long time. It may not have any immediate impact but when the time comes to put more people into the academy and to train them who will perform that task ?
Let me tell you the weeks after a recruit leaves the academy are crucial and the most important in his career as these weeks will mold him or her into the type of police officer they will eventually be.
In closing I will say I always enjoyed doing my job and training the officers of this department and I am sure that is a feeling that is shared by many. But I am very sad to see what has happened.
The decision made to the program are ones that are going to have a ripple effect maybe not right away but down the line they will.
I am sorry to see this happen.And I ask you to give this more thought and not allow this to happen.
Respectfully submitted
You know me and where I can be reached
Hey J-Fuck I am one of the 9,000(not 13,500 you fucking liar)police officers that religiously visits SCC and only occasionally drops a post(like today) along with citizens, firefighters, outside police agencies, reporters, media, and the Mayor. So we are insignificant? That comment was the final nail in your coffin in my book for me. I now see how you have our best interest at heart. I will ONLY do my job and nothing beyond that!!!
It is funny but you are the one that is INSIGNIFICANT!! you will come and go after your contract expires and all you will be known in history for is being called J-Fed, a PPO superintendent, the worst superintendent in history, the single person who killed the CPD, no O.W. Wilson, killed morale etc...
You are a fucking nightmare I wish I could awake from and never have again. You had a opportunity to surround yourself with real police officers and learn how to be the REAL POLICE but you chose to play Special Agent In Charge with the Po Po and that don't work. You probably are the laughing stock back at the FBI.
SCC keep blogging the truth shall set us free from Short Shanks and J-fed.
He actually is RIGHT FOR ONCE!We have NO VOICE,have NO UNITY,have NO MOTIVATION.When I go to work I don't see a watch any more,I see a bunch of schlubs who just show up because they have to.I also see people WHO WILL NOT BACK EACH OTHER UP,and that is just a sin.It starts as recruits because that is what F.T.O.'S preach nowadays.We don't really matter to anyone BUT OURSELVES.Our DET'S are obnoxious and scamming beyond belief,Patrol is uttely useless the bosses DON'T LEAD they just second guess.WHY SHOULD BAD GUYS,POLITICIANS OR CITIZENS TAKE US SERIOUSLY.J-FED completely nailed it,we really don't matter and have become just thousands of spineless whiners.In 19 yrs I HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS, at least LEROY made us angry and had leaders around him.
You go SCC!!
Hey, who's the asshole W/C in 001 who decided on his own, or at the direction of Bt. 100, to contact the W/C of tac teams sent to "El Grito" and let them know that they have been relieved, but not released?
I look at this blog almost everyday. The only beef I have is not with the Blog, it is that no one, absolutely no one, cares about the pension fund. Look at the stock market, you young officers will be eating cat food when you retire.
old retired guy
SCC You OWN the Blog! Yet maybe you don't realize that we are all the better when you allow comments from the other side.(that which you do not agree) Many times we can agree to disagree. In MY opinion allow apposing views from time to time is the American way, our forefathers knew this, And if you don't agree. It is what it is. 10-4 That is all.
This shit has to stop! How can that civilian political hack Masters carry a gun? What the fuck? He now has a private investigators license so he can carry a gun. SCC, you are very knowledgeable about such subjects. Is there anything that can be done about this?
WEIS IS RIGHT!We focus on stupid meaningless nonsense and don't band together.We have no "esprit de corps"OR commaradarie,we just mope and worry about wearing gaylooking baseball hats or cargo pants.WE HAVE DONE THIS TO OURSELVES AND THE MAYOR AND BAD GUYS ARE LAUGHING AT US!
Arrests are down, movers are down, parkers are down, morale is down, toss in the Cozzi situation, GPS, in-car cameras, the threats of strict punishment for minor infractions, the crime is up, homicides and shootings are way up, the bosses are not going to cover you, no Union backing, no contract, "Aunt Bea", the asshole mayor, etc... but the blog is insignificant 'cuz there are only 200 comments. Yeah J-Fed, keep dismissing it, you Cro-magnon looking crosseyed fuck, cuz there are only 200 comments. Apparantly, Jody thinks that "Anonymous" is just 1 person that posts a lot.
Remember "Baghdad Bob"--Muhammad Saeed al-Sahhaf? He was Saddam's minister of propaganda who consistently made preposterous denials of the facts.
That guy was the best!!! What happened to him? I used to like seeing him on the top of a building saying the "infidels are fleeing", as bombs are going off in the backround and you could see the flashes of explsions. He must've trained in Cook County Government.
all i have to say is fuck j-fed.
Today Forbes related that Chicago is the most stressful City to live in today.
They mentioned the HIGH cost of living here as one of the problems but they ignored the HIGH HOMICIDE RATE that is killing our population daily as one of the problems.
Way to go J-Pud , Lil Dick...nanny state alderjerks. You've put us on the front page again.
Cookoo, cookoo, cookoo,
Free Mette, Free Cozzo, Free Plewa!

At least "Baghdad Bob" (Muhammad Saeed al-Sahhaf) made us laugh.
Weis is about as funny as childhood leukemia.
In a continuum of con artist skills, the bunco squad rates J-Fed as a "D minus".
Take heart, Jody Boy, your omnipotent master, Lord Shortshanks, gets an "F".
Someone gets shot in front of me; I'll just do a U-Turn and look the other way. Then, I'll come around the corner after 5 minutes and vounteer to do the paper and take 4 hours to finish it..
Soooooo.. BITE ME!!!!!
9/17/2008 02:14:00 AM
And if the victim of that shooting is a family member of a copper? or an innocent citizen? How would you feel if it was YOUR family member lying in the street dying while someone who has sworn to serve and protect the weak, the defenseless, the innocent drives past without doing his job????
Make no mistake my friend YOU ARE SIMPLY A COWARD! And you are hoping to convince others to be cowards so that you will feel better about yourself. THANK GOD YOU DIDN'T HAPPEN TO BE DRIVING BY AND DOING A U-TURN AS DETECTIVE SOTO WAS MURDERED!
Insignificant?
Jweasel is the definition of the term.
He has done nothing to improve this department for the long term.
Significance is in the details, contracts, leadership postions being filled by leaders not clout hacks, morale improvement, functioning equipment, promotions fair and qualified, hiring proper manpower to do the job, personnel support, continued education of the workforce, ...
these are the details a leader should begin with. NOT kissing your mayor's ass. Disinformation is dangerous because it is easily redirected towards a fool and their supporters.
I have only posted a few comments on this blog but I do want Jody to know this...I am a 007th District officer who is a hard worker and at one point loved this job and being a police officer, even in a place like Englewood. That has completely changed. I am tired of all of the negative publicity and the outright lies I see on the news with no defense from Jody. I am tired of the bogus CR#'s. I am tired of the GPS, cameras, etc. . I am tired of the courts telling me I have no probable cause on perfectly legit felony drug cases just because that particular judge doesn't like drug cases. I am tired of seeing the same murderers, burglars, armed robbers and sex offenders walk the streets rather than serve prison time. I am tired of seeing rap sheets that have 35 arrests but only 1 conviction. I am tired of the Englewood citizens blaming us for their problems. I am tired of the reverends having more say than us. I am tired of having bricks thrown at my squad car. I am tired of the endless shootings, robberies, batteries in progress in a neighborhood that can't get their act together. I'm also tired that you have no idea of how draining it is to work in these kinds of neighborhoods and thus can't begin to understand the mental and physical toll it takes on us. So, Jody, I guess you could say my morale is down and so is everyone else's in 007. Just because we don't post on this blog doesn't mean that low morale is fiction. It's real and it's all we talk about. Get in touch with reality and with your officers.
Right on. Except about Amtrak: it is subsidized far less than roads are. Make gasoline and car taxes pay the real cost of building and maintaining roads, and you'll be paying $15 a gallon.
But here in America, we call it "investing in infrastructure" when it's about cars, and "subsidizing public transportation" when it's about trains. Ironically, of course, the parts of the country most dependent on Amtrak are Red State guns-and-depopulated farm areas, people who hate the damn gummint subsidies they live off of.
"Usually, we avoid National Public Radio like the plague. Leftist lib-tard programming for persons unable to think, reason or form a cognizant thought..."
scc, sounds like you're describing conservatives!
everyone that reads this blog should post a comment that says
"count me". Let J-fed see those
numbers.
Actually SCC, I believe you over-rate yourself also. Take it on the chin and get over it.
"J-Fed Says We're Insignificant" great idea for tshirts, mugs, sweatshirts and other assorted items.
Does anyone have wake/funeral arrangements for Mike Robbins? Can't find them anywhere.
Retired 11yrs........
you are doing great job....sooner of later jfed and the rest of the three stooges will leave and perhaps sanity and professionalism will return
jjthulis
rtd lt
Don't take it personal SCC. He was really referring to ALL of us. He thinks we are all insignificant.
you can wear my uniform boss, my morale is way up...because im not a cop...
The real irony is the complete insignificance of NPR...J-Fed must be listening to the democrat talking points: insignificant, misinformation & lies followed by bullshit statistics.If you were "the police" at any point in your career you would be able to figure out that SCC is the pulse of the CPD. Feed the BS to the sheeple the real police know what is going on! "We tweaked TRU to replace SOS." I just pissed myself....I relly apprecaited the plausible deniabilty line; "most of these incidents happened before I became superintendent." Coward.
You know who's lying? J-Fed is. 13,500 officers. there he goes again lying to the public. we're still down a couple thousand, there is a hiring freeze and we keep having officers retire each month and unfortunately you have to add the death and being fired numbers too.
J-fed you sir are the insignificant one. scc - keep up the good work. power in numbers. information is great and powerful tool.
13,500 my ass. Would someone post the real number please?
TO: 13,500 officers my ass! He better do a re-count it's more like 9,500 stupid! I know that's the number that the citizens like to here, but don't lie to us nimrod!!!!
Again, you are the nimrod...There 9500+ POs (9161 pay code) then look at the PO's as Det, ET canine, FTO etc and you move to 11,000+ now factor in the sgt's, Lt's, Capt's and Commanders etc you are at 13000+ (13,200 something if I remember correctly)...Nobody has ever said there 13,500 blue shirts, just officers of all ranks and assignments.
Holy Stats Don't Lie Batman!!!
There isn't one politician in American today that will under estimate the power of the internet. Marketing experts are using them to evaluate consumer influences. The media is all over it and the blogs. The print media is dying because of it. And the video and audio media is trying to survive it.
Political action and fund raising on websites has gone through the roof.
Instead of Joe Blow communicating with only a few now he can communicate to the world.
If J-clown really cared about his profession, name, honor and future in law enforcement it would be stupid for him to ignore what is being discussed on SCC and the messages left behind by commentators who appear to have an interest in Chicago's safety and welfare.
It's a matter of power and authority. J-Clown doesn't want to surrender it with others who actually do the work on the streets while he makes guest appearances. A critical mistake. His job performance rests directly on the backs of those doing the work.
Any organizational leader that ignores it's workers will in turn be ignored and become insignificant.
This has already happen to J-Clown.
This blog is more than a significant source of information. I agree not everyone reads the blog. Some of the comments can be silly, silly, and very silly.
But, stats don't lie. There are approximately three million people living in Chicago and eleven in the metropolitan area. Thirteen thousand coppers aren't the only ones reading SCC. The politicians, community and business people are reading it too. Why...because everyone I meet I refer them to it. I promote it by word of mouth.
The general public has a better understanding about how things work here in the Chicago then the outsider from Philadelphia will give them credit for.
Keep being insignificant. Your insignificance has done more to bring ugly, clouted head of this department to light than any other resource.
to all my fellow po's out there-- it looks to be a lovely weekend-- spend some time with your kids-- give them a hug-- have a nice family sit down dinner-- maybe even go for a roll in the hay with your significant other-- remember, kill them with kindness-- holding anger in and being pissed off all the time is bad for you. i have seen way to many guys walking around the station lately looking like zombies. god bless to all and stay safe.

There are around 11,600 dues paying FOP members. that includes all below the rank of Sgt and very few others. There are a few supervisors who remain dues paying but mostly they are pissed at FOP for supposedly "throwing them out" when they were forming their own union.
That does NOT include retired or Sgt and above who do not pay dues to FOP.
Call it lies or collusion but I defy anyone to prove it. The major problem seem to be deployment.
At any given time there are over 600 PO's on limited duty, 700 on the medical, an unknown number detailed to detached services and the like and other misc. hidden spots.
Whoever comes up with 9,500 is mistaken. Maybe after all the medical roll people, light duty, limited duty etc but there are definitely 11,600 plus or minus a few dues paying PO's.
Whats insignificant is J Frauds contributions to the police dept. SCC has brought the dept together and been a source of information to keep the north south and west side police on the same page. J fraud will be gone in 2 1/2 years but we will still be here cleaning up the mess that this failed experiment leaves behind. He has already started lying about the number of police officers and the amount we are short. He is hiding the stats so they can be manipulated. J fraud is a bigger joke than Dana.
Was selling you soul worth 300k a year. J fruad is insignificant.

The two best comments today - hilarious! Thanks for the laugh!
SCC,
Keep the blog up please. what it is like is the shithouse wall at the old 321 N. Lasalle Traffic Court. It was always filled with tidbits about Department policies, bosses and Inspectors throughout the Department. Unfortunately most of us only got to that building once a month so we were unable to read or leave comments on a regular basis. Thanks INTERNET SCC is now that forum. It gives coppers across the city, across watches , districts, units stc. a chance to comment in almost real time about the Jag Off decisions that the " Ivory Tower " has made. Although some comments are off the wall most are pretty clever and have some great observations. Police Officers have great "bull Shit Meters" if it looks like bull shit, smells like bull shit, then guess what it sure is bull shit.. J- Fraud you have that look and smell guess what? You must be bull shit.
13,500 officers my ass! He better do a re-count it's more like 9,500 stupid! I know that's the number that the citizens like to here, but don't lie to us nimrod!!!!
------------------------------
8,800 and dropping is the real number
We are,he's right!As a matter of fact we are so useless I guess we should stop caring.It's obvious his greatness is what guides him.SO LET HIM DO IT!
Where is Seiser??????????
Hey SCC, why don't you post a run down of JFED's 8 months in office.
like replacing 21 of 25 comm etc.
and the rank and files compalints about him so that we can get an overall look at what we have.
including his new units and how many ex-feds he brought in.
how many retired, years of experience lost.
speaking of J-Fed...any truth to the romor that he recently turned in his Tahoe because he really didn't like it? A littlel birdie at A-1 MMD stated as much the other day. Claimed they now had to remove all the bells, whistles, and doo-dads, (radios, ,phones, command type useless shit), from it that were just recently installed at HIS insistence.
1. Jody didn't run this department by press release. We learn what's going on one of two ways, either from this site or from the newspaper. Despite his promises to remedy the situation, Jody continues to dismiss us and just issues press releases. This is how we found out about the new SUVs, the reorganization of the department (several times now) and the plan to make us pass some arbitrary physical in order to become properly armed.
_____________
Word "on the street" is always legit.
Typical DOPE. He only saw the obvious and took it as gospel, instead of investigating a little deeper for the the real deal. Nobody in his little think tank thought to tell him the difference between the # of visit hits and the # of comments? J-PUD steps on the little FED, AGAIN! What a dope. How sad, how terribly sad, for us, while it is just a payday jackpot for him.
so feds aren't that smart.
I want everyone to get one fact correct. J-Fed can run. He does it everyday from his office to his car in the lot and vice versa so he doesn't have to talk to or be stopped by any coppers that are around. Plus he does it with blinders on.
I tend to agree with him for once.I am SO INSIGNIFICANT,as a matter of fact,the city won't miss any of the potential REVENUE I could generate for them either.
Regarding my last post about J-Fed running, the only time he doesn't is in the elevator. Then he just keeps his blackberry in front of his face to ignore everyone.
So you think the republican contender for the state attorneys office will be the savior? Well he is running on the platform of putting as many policemen in jail as he can. I think this guy is an idiot wildcard who will burn everyone he can to get elected.
I ust read the Trib with it's reporter Dan Heitzmen who always has his own angle on reporting the news and always not in favoe of the police and usually in favor of some rat asshole. Subscription canceled. At least I know were the Sun Times stands and their local news is better, may not always be truthful, but a little better, for now.
J-Fed:
If you can't dazzle them with your brilliance, baffle them with your bullshit.
The Keesing Bandit says---
I'm insignificant?
I feel sad--like I'm going to cry.
But before that happens...
Kees me you fool!!!
SCC/ Because of you the under dog has a chance. I made a complaint about the lock up on this blog, it was read by a watch commander who immediately brought it to the attention of the district commander. Guess what no more problem, because they fixed the problem fearing scrutiny from downtown.
This blog has put the merit pukes in there places, it has been a news worthy outlet for every member of the department. Its better than the 24 hour reports because this blog serves a useful purpose for the working man and woman of this department.
9/17/2008 12:16:00 AM
How about the balls to take it to your Sgt who will bring it to the W/c, it is called chain of command. Just like a lot of people on this blog you like to complain but choose to do nothing but post a message, congrats your enabled
Well, I can say this.. AND IT'S NOT A LIE.. 9 out of 10 officers I speak to say they are DONE with doing "pro-active police work".
They will be as "non-aggressive" as possible when doing the job.
YOU CAN TAKE THAT TO THE BANK J-Fed.
Congrats, hope you are proud of you and your friends. I bet you are the first one to complain when you wait to long in the line at Mcdonalds, Starbucks, or Jewel. Why don't you go work for them, make your $9.00 an hour and help speed up the service.
The next step in your ineptitude is that you'll take your time in going to in progress calls, then assist calls, and eventually 10-1's. Yes it sucks we don't have a contract, the city screws us every chance they get, but guess what you have guaranteed employment, good luck finding that elsewhere.
SCC,
If you were insignificant he wouldn't have known what SCC is. The fact remains that this blog is as well known as Officer.com in law enforcement circles.
In the big scheme of things, sorry SCC you are insignificant, BUT necessary. People need a place to vent, and much better here where others feel the same.
SCC your very opinionated, but you don't force it down our throats, you also seem to be the voice of reason and information.
Is this blog going to cure the problems with this dept.? Probably not, but it may help to stop some new ones.

When are you people gonna get it. 13,500 is all SWORN members. Hey stupid, Bea Cuello is sworn, Jimmy Jackson is sworn, Desputy Chief Sgt Keating is sworn. Get it! Go to I-Clear and add it up. We are about 8500 PO's. 1700 detectives. 1200 sgts. 250 lts. 70 capts., etc. Ya they count too. And if you talk this stuff about counting them twice (Unit 026 and 126) you don't know what you are talking about. I-Clear only counts once. All this shows is that so many of you don't know what the f--- you are talking about. It would make more sense if you took all the people whoa are out of patrol and in TRU, the 6 deputy chiefs platoons, and all these units we never had before. That is where the manpower is being lost to. We are within 96% of our allotted strength. It is the distribution of the manpower that has hurt patrol. If you have such in depth detailed knowledge, then go to I-Clear and find who is counted in two units and list their star numbers. You won't. Go back to your comic book where you belong Jethro. Leave this blog for something constructive to help others. Not your whining board cause your old lady won't listen to you.
O/T whats with the female POs working the female lockup in 005? i waited 1hr 53 minutes today as 3 female officers/civilian aids took their time to load the prisoner wagon, then stand around until their shift ended all the while looking out the window and seeing 2 P.O.s waiting to bring a prisoner back. they literally did nothing but talk and laugh it up watching us stand in the hall with our prisoner waiting, for an hour. as if that wasnt bad enough, the morning crew came in and had us wait another 53 minutes while they stood around and did shit!. the male lockup meanwhile, was like a revolving door prisoners being entered and bonded out.hey 005 female lockup, do your fucking jobs you lazy waste of a pension.
Complain about lockup? HAHAHAHA Anyone ever dealt with the ghetto rat in 018 on 1st watch allowed to wear any fucking thing he wants with his hat cocked to the side? Guy is NEVER in a uniform, EVER!HMMMM, If I didnt ask ahead of time i would have thought a prisoner got free and tried to lock this mutt up. He is a dogass that has a hard time waking up if the phone rings in lockup or someone interupts his movies, and hates when he has to process someone. Thinks nobody should be locked up, i guess he didnt read his job description before the city used him to fill a spot to reach rat quota!
Got to love a LYING FED!!!!!!!!!
The problem is not with JFED's salary, GPS monitoring or the lack of heavy weapons in beat cars. Unfortunately even though Jody Weis came with impressive credentials from a heck of a military and FBI career. He is simply not the person for the job of Police Superintendant in Chicago. Perhaps it was an honest error made for all the right reasons by Ritchie Daley, but Weis does not have the skills to guide this department. We need a Supremo who will ride, shoot, and speak the truth. The best person in my opinion would be retired USA Lt. General Russell Honore the leader of joint task force Katrina. I personally saw him in action when I deployed to the crescent city after Katrina. He was a candid and decisive action orientated leader who does not mince words. He even took Deputy Supt. Charles Williams by surprise. In fact he once told a reporter that he (the reporter) "was stuck on stupid" for asking a dumb question. Wow imagine him talking to Michael Sneed or Mary Mitchell like that. Taking on the job as Superintendant merits receiving a huge salary. It is an impossible job, with diminishing resources, tremendous demands, hordes of special interest groups trying to impose their will, and with ungrateful and sometimes stupid cops added to the mix. I'm sorry but I gotta call it like it is. Let me get going so I can get some real good coffee and a bagel at Whole Foods.
Former CPD SWAT unfairly dumped to Townhall District due to race norming.
I have not posted on the blog until now. I am just a silent reader. I think J-Fed calling this blog insignificant is ridiculous. I just wanted to say thank you for this blog...especially after what we went thru Monday. It was aweful.
009
. . . I made a complaint about the lock up on this blog . . . [T]hey fixed the problem fearing scrutiny from downtown.
9/17/08 12:17:00 AM
Few bosses on this job fear scrutiny from downtown, but they ALL fear scrutiny from the media.
Forbes names Chicago this year's Most Stressful City!!!
In Depth: America's Most Stressful Cities
No. 1 Chicago, Ill.
With 7.3% unemployment and a gallon of gas going for just under four bucks, the Windy City has some economic headwinds that result in a perfect storm for stress. Chi-town’s pollution problems (it ranked No. 7 in terms poor air quality) and lack of breathing room (it's No. 2 in terms of population density) couple to create a Midwestern Molotov cocktail of stress.
Just to think at one airport the officers qualified with shotguns, which by the way some misfired as they were junk and dirty like the cars! Why does the airport have no shotguns on hand? Why is swat allowed to work 8-4 on all their days off without regards to seniority making time + 1/2 on the secure side but they have weapons far away in a car what idiot thought of this scam? come on thought of this? thanks new lt. for your crusade to ruin a great unit! At least (JJ) has won! Semper Fi!

OH PLEASSSE! CAN'T YOU GUYS APPRECIATE ANYTHING. J-FED IS ON YOUR SIDE. CAN'T YOU JUST FEEL THE LOVE.
HE IS TRYING TO GET YOU RIFLES...IF ONLY YOU WOULD GET IN SHAPE. WE KNOW THERE ARE NO FAT HUNTERS OR GANG BANGERS USING RIFLES.
HE IS TRYING TO GET YOU OVERPRICED, OVER GASSED, TIP OVER TAHOES, IF YOU ARE EVER IN AN ACCIDENT.
HE IS TRYING TO GET THE GUNS OFF THE STREET BY BUYING UP ALL OF THE ILLEGAL GUNS OUT THERE INCLUDING ILLEGAL BB GUNS.
SOOOOOOO....PLEASE....PLEASE....PLEASE STOP YOUR WHINING AND MOANING... HE ONLY HAS A LITTLE OVER 2 1/2 YEARS TO COLLECT HIS MILLION DOLLARS FROM THE CITY OF CHICAGO, WHILE YOU BEG LIKE LITTLE BABIES FOR A DECENT RAISE. WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE????? PROTECTOR OF CITIZENS???? YOU SHOULD BE HAPPY YOU GET TO WORK 6 DAYS IN A ROW, NOT SPEND WEEKENDS WITH YOUR FAMILIES AND FRIENDS, ARE GIVEN THE PRIVILEGE OF TIME DUE (FORGET THAT YOU EARNED IT FOR GIVING UP HOLIDAYS), NONE OF THAT COUNTS. YOU ARE UNGRATEFUL LITTLE WHINNY BABIES,
YOU SHOULD BE OUT MAKING LOTS OF REVENUE FOR THE CITY TO PAY THE ALDERMEN AND MAKE SURE J-FED GETS HIS MILLION DOLLARS FOR HIS ONE JOB, NOT THE 2 JOBS FOR WHICH HE WAS HIRED.
YOU HAVE THE ONE JOB WITH THE CITY AND CAN'T MAKE ENDS MEET...WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU? DO YOU THINK YOU ARE A TEACHER? A STREETS & SAN EMPLOYEE, A CTA EMPLOYEE.. THEY DESERVE AND GET RAISES (ESPECIALLY TEACHERS, I REMEMBER WHEN I TAUGHT, I HAD TO WORK FROM 8 - 3:30. THEY TEACH FROM 8-1:45 OR 9- 2:45 DEPENDING ON THE SCHOOL & GET AT LEAST 3 MONTHS TOTAL OFF DURING THE SCHOOL YEAR & HOLIDAYS) IT IS A PART TIME JOB ANYMORE. I FIGURED OUT THAT THEY MAKE AS MUCH OR MORE AN HOUR AS A POLICE OFFICER WHO WORKS 6 DAYS A WEEK. (THAT IS PER HOUR, NOT YEAR)
GET REAL YOU ARE A POLICE OFFICER, NOW GET OUT THERE WITH A SMILE ON YOUR FACE AND SERVE AND PROTECT THE FINE CITIZENS OF THIS WONDERFUL FLOWERLY CITY. YOU SHOULD BE GRATEFUL THAT THE CITY TREATS YOU LIKE A SECOND CLASS CITIZEN.
THIS IS HOW THE MAYOR THINKS OF YOU...SO THIS IS WHAT YOU ARE. SO SMILE, BE HAPPY, AND JUST DO YOUR JOB YOU UNGRATEFUL MEN AND WOMEN IN BLUE.
I'M SORRY BEING MARRIED TO A POLICE OFFICER HAS IMPAIRED MY JUDGMENT. I DIDN'T MEAN ANY OF THE ABOVE COMMENTS. HAVE A GREAT DAY & BE SAFE OUT THERE. WE YOUR OTHER HALF AND YOUR CHILDREN KNOW WHAT YOU DO FOR US AND WHAT USED TO BE A WONDERFUL CITY. THANK YOU.
How come Donohue & J-Fed meet clandestinely for coffee????
Doesn't the fact that J Fed keeps reporting we have 13,500 officers constitute a false official report?
Wouldn't this be some sort of rule violation?
Wouldn't an everyday P.O. get jammed up for this sort of out right lie of a statement?
Why does Daley always defend his indicted friends by stating that everyone deserves a second chance?
How many second changes does a fired Police Officer on the job get? (None, never, not with out a court ordering a P.O. back to work.)
Did Cozzi get a second chance?
I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THE SWIPE RECORDS FOR THE FIRST DEPUTY AND ALL DEPUTY SUPERINTENDENTS!!!

All exempts are only required to swipe once a day, at any time of the day regardless of their shift hours, and at any location of their choosing. And, if they don't swipe or miss a few swipes, ain't jack going to happen. No edit, no nothing, no big deal. RHIP, Rank Has Its Privileges, so study, or suck, hard! It's all on the legit! And the moon is made of green cheese!
Nobody reads the blog? I have met many wonderful friends from here. Kind of funny, but even families of the fallen who say they no longer participate in the gold star, etc because of all the politics involved.
What's also interesting is how several people I work with all have gone through the entire process for getting hired onto the CPD. But there's a hiring freeze, right?
One person is being pushed through the process.
His godfather is brass at HQ....
Shakman. LOL.
I assure SCC that averaging nearly 8,000 visits per day during 2008 goes far beyond STATISTICALLY SIGNIFICANT.
Every white shirt is aware of the blog and read it on a regular basis. For JFED to even acknowledge the blog is a huge admission. Without this blog, information would be hidden. Remember, information is power and the blog is our main source of information. Blog gives blue shirts a voice.
Fuck jody and the trojan (Daley) horse he came in.
We are still the baddest (professional and dedicated) ma'fuckers in the country.
You know whats insignificant SCC J-Fed's neck... where is it? WHERE? I ask!
Off topic, with regard to the suburban bank robbery police chase that ended in the city when the offenders crashed into a squad car in 012 who was not involved in the chase just driving through an intersection on a green light when he/she was broad sided.
What is the condition of the PO? I hear all kinds of different versions, including that the PO was ejected from the squad car...
The scum-times did a piece on the offender about how he was a prep football superstar and now he was fired from his job as a DuSable HS football coach because of the arrest....But tey don't really mention much about the PO.
fuck me, no fuck you said...
J-fed..is right. You are insignificant. Now, let me get back to feltching, and posting comments supporting the brass so I can keep my cushy secretary w/a gun job.
9/17/2008 12:26:00 AM
No, you are fucked. How do you think you got that cushy job? By giving up your tushy.
Any way to determine unique daily visits to your fine blog site, or how many overall unique visitors?
ONLY SOME WHOS NOT A COP WOULD MAKE A STAEMENT LIKE THAT...TYPICAL FUCKING FED!
"Usually, we avoid National Public Radio like the plague. Leftist lib-tard programming for persons unable to think, reason or form a cognizant thought..."
scc, sounds like you're describing conservatives!
Show us a conservative radio station that exists on government subsidies.
It can't be done because conservative radio exists on ad revenue, as in people actually want to listen to it.
NPR would go the way of Air America if government money went bye-bye.
Nice try lib-tard.
It's amazing that 25 people get shot last night and not a whiff of this hit's the newspapers. 25. So tell me where are your 13,500 coppers?
Why is it that most of your high crime districts are in RAP by noon if you have 13,500 officers?
Why is it that dicks units are running ragged only covering the "high profile" or "newsworthy" events if you have 13,500 officers?
I've got my family packed up and ready to move because there is nowhere near 13,500 officers north of I-80!
Hey Terry Ekl, kiss my ass. You sir, are a real piece of shit!
Hey SCC I'd like to see your take on this....
SOMETHING TO TALK ABOUT
Chicago named most stressful city.
No. 1 Chicago, Ill.
With 7.3% unemployment and a gallon of gas going for just under four bucks, the Windy City has some economic headwinds that result in a perfect storm for stress. Chi-town’s pollution problems (it ranked No. 7 in terms poor air quality) and lack of breathing room (it's No. 2 in terms of population density) couple to create a Midwestern Molotov cocktail of stress.
I have to agree with this comment:
Comment from demon: I have to agree with Forbes, I have lived in Chicago all my life and am now 54 years of age so I've been here a long time. Chicago has deteriorated over the past 15 to 20 years and I think the main reason is because the same dictatorship has been in office way to long. Chicago needs a change as does the county, we need a new set of eyes and ears to lead this land that use to be a great city to live in. Anybody who lives here knows what I'm talking about.
hey j-fed you look like an "American Girl" doll
when are you going to move out of wilmette and live in the city like the rest of us you puke?
F= FOREVER B= BOTHERIN I= IRISH
I look at this blog almost everyday. The only beef I have is not with the Blog, it is that no one, absolutely no one, cares about the pension fund. Look at the stock market, you young officers will be eating cat food when you retire.

Well all officers better care about the pension fund, especially when they get a look at the slate of slugs that will be running for the pension board. We need professional people on the fund and we are getting a slate of coppers who think the pension board is better than working the street.
Better stock up on cat food and peanut butter.
So, Jody, I guess you could say my morale is down and so is everyone else's in 007. Just because we don't post on this blog doesn't mean that low morale is fiction. It's real and it's all we talk about. Get in touch with reality and with your officers.

If you don't just look at the fact that we are going on two years without a contract, that the administration feels justified in unjustly stripping,suspending,publicly tarring and feathering and firing you for unsubstantiated lies, leaves you with barley functioning equipment or adequate manpower to do your job, imposes a residency requirement, disallows alcohol consumption by adults, forbids you from viewing this site on a deapartment computer and fails to provide an honors funeral to an officer who was shot numerous times in the line of duty.
I have not posted on the blog until now. I am just a silent reader. I think J-Fed calling this blog insignificant is ridiculous. I just wanted to say thank you for this blog...especially after what we went thru Monday. It was aweful.

Insignificant?
My fucking ass!
This blog is the best source of communication to ever be available for the rank and file. We can say what we want without fear of retribution!
That is fantastic! The bosses hate the SCC blog! For that reason alone it is worthwhile.
Divide and conquer has always been the way of the CPD. This blog has done more to unite the average working coppers than anything else before.
God bless SCC!
It wouldn't matter if all 9,500 of us stormed City Hall, we would still be insignificant to the powers to be.
If you wish to become significant VOTE and make sure everyone you know votes.
UNITED WE STAND, DIVIDED WE FALL!!!
The rank and file must become one cohesive unit, like molten steel.

How come Donohue & J-Fed meet clandestinely for coffee????
9/17/2008 07:12:00 PM
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
J-Fed doesn’t trust his own staff (Kirby etc.) Who he believes are reporting back to city hall. He also had his office swept for listens devices his first week. So the PPO has a enough brains that were not killed by roids not to trust the mayor. Donahue called and offered to bring the coffee and rolls and J-Fed told him NO we can meet at starbucks. That was the PPO’s idea. I walked into starbucks and had to do a double take myself on the way to class at IIT. The PPO looks so short sitting next to Donahue. Maybe Da mayor picked J-Feb because he is shorter.
Donahue told the membership at the next general meeting so their meetings have not been secret either. Don’t leave it up to your unit rep go to meetings yourself, go for yourself. Half of the reps don’t make 50% meetings that’s why they can’t run for lodge office. No smoking gun here.
Big mistake putting GMAN in charge! Phat Phil don't look so bad now, huh Ritchie? Absolutely no one knows shit from Shinola at the top! Bye bye Olympics! Keep up the good work guys and gals! That is all!
*** ATTENTION ***
An additional reward fund has been created at the Patrolman's Credit Union for information leading to the arrest and conviction of the killer(s) of Det. Soto.
The FOP has let stand the $10,000 reward they originally offered. An anonymous donor has stepped up and contributed $25,000 to this reward fund. This money is there, in the credit union, no bull.
In addition, if anyone would like to contribute to this reward fund you can, just go to or call the credit union and ask to contribute to the Detective Soto reward fund. That way it can keep growing.
Perhaps a west sider who knows something will take a look at the $$ cash offered and come forward. So far the reward stands at $35,000. This was announced at the FOP General Meeting on 16 Sep.
Thanks you to the anonymous donor who came up with the $25k. Much appreciated.
WAAKE UP J-FED AND HELP US GET A CONTRACT. YOU GOT ONE FOR $300,000 AND THEY ALREADY TOOK HALF YOUR REPONSIBILITY AWAY. WE KEEP GETTING MORE WORK WITH NO EXTRA PAY...
Guys enough already with the 13,500 here is how you figure it out and yes it is just about right. Go to data warehouse then go to personnel then go to alpha star. Now enter our codes for rank ie 9161 is po, 9171 is lt. 9175 etc. if you dont know a code enter an exempts name and look at their code and then run it. All you have to do is enter your pc password at the top then go down to the right side area/section where it states code and enter each title code from po to Deputy Sup and you'll see how many OFFICERS we have just a couple hundred off. run it by age name etc. all the boxes are self explanatory Now figure in medical on a daily basis, which is probably in the hundreds. Yes everyone we do have that many, just like someone stated they are not counting BLUE SHIRTS they are counting EVERYONE. So no he isn't a liar he is stating some fact. Hey I'm not defending him just informing you where to look it up
I've got eight on and I'm trying to get used to eating Meow Mix now so when the time comes, it will taste like sirloin steak. It's not that bad if you mix it with chicken broth though.

Unfortunately, SCC, J-Fed has a point you haven't refuted. Even 400 comments doesn't constitute much of a representative sample when you don't know if all of those are cops, and how many of those are the same cops. It might be helpful if you could note how many unique users are using the blog per day. These issues are difficult to refute when people understandably wish to remain anonymous, but I wouldn't get into statistical games with the department unless you really know statistics. In short, unless you wanted to identify your sample (fat chance) and demonstrate that you are drawing some substantial proportion of the department's rank and file to your site, it's not really an argument you can win. Not that I'm calling you insignificant--but don't mistake statistical insignificance for other kinds. Technically, he misused the term since "significance" is used but "insignificance" is NOT perhaps because it connotes that a finding of non-significance implies "insignificance," which is naturally doesn't. But with respect to samples, significance hasn't been tested here, so the real question is representativeness, as I've stated above. How many cops are here, and how representative are they of all cops working for the CPD? As I've said, I'm not sure that's a question you'll be able to answer. Hope this helps.

And herein Mr Federal Employee is wisdom...
When I read your post,it made me think of "Ibbidy,Jibbidy. Rat-A-Tat-Tat..." You must be a Fed, because Feds take days to analyze a case, but rarely close one. While I have never worked with a Federal Agent, I know several officers who have worked intimately with your kind, and to a man, they have said that they spend more time sending memos back and forth than actually investigating incidents. But I am getting off track here. I am a semi regular poster here, and I would say that I "represent" the mindset or attitudes of at least 80-120 other officers that I work with. The fact that they do not post does not mean that they do not share the perceptions of the posters. In addition, based on J-Feds quote, all of the polls taken in this current election cycle are insignificant, in that a typical sample of those polled are 1,000 to 3,000 (for a GOOD sample), out of 30,000,000 people!! Statistically that is "insignificant". The good news is that if J-Knucklehead really believes that the representation is "insignificant", when the hammer does come down, and the streets start to burn, (see Obama Riots), he will act as one who's hair is on fire.
Now go back to your cubby hole, write a memo, and analyze what I just articulated. The person who used the Emperors New Cloths analogy was right on target.
Folks don't see what they don't want to see...
I'm not sayin, I'm just sayin...
Does anyone understand that this is Chicago? IT WILL NEVER CHANGE! Same game different players. Don't hate the playa, hate the game! Not bad for a white boy!
Well, I can say this.. AND IT'S NOT A LIE.. 9 out of 10 officers I speak to say they are DONE with doing "pro-active police work".
They will be as "non-aggressive" as possible when doing the job.
YOU CAN TAKE THAT TO THE BANK J-Fed.

HAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!! Oh yeah sure! Tell it to the chicken shit Sgt, and he will tell the WC. Chain of command? HaHaHa that ended many years ago when the suckhole factor increased ten fold. Go drink more Kool-aid Ghost Rider and don't forget to tell the guys to be aggressive so all your "yes boss" will pay off someday.
I have been reading and commenting on this blog since June of '05, and to be honest I preferred it back then. However, the judas-fed has still not answered WHY THEY LEFT JOE AIRHART BLEEDING IN TO HIS BRAIN!?! Never trust a fed, I do not forgive them for Joe Airhart, or WACO or Ruby Ridge. They are all filthy, dirty democRATs.
Hey 11:05a.m., I am not the poster you are arguing with, but where I work, I can guarantee that it will not be any of my family and if it should happen to be any significant person, they should not have been there either. Just do the paper and call it another day.

They cry wolf constantly and never come through with what they say. Whenever they ask us "what we think?" nothing ever happens. It's all BS smoke and mirrors! They never listen to us because they are so smart. Why waste our time going to their "question and answer meetings" because it doesn't matter what we say! The FTO change is just another morale killer and I'm sure there are many more to come. There is no more trust in the leadership and what has happenened to this job is quite sad!
Trying to get the leadership to see the light and stop the downward fall of the department is like trying to empty the ocean with a spoon!!! So Sad

And the citizens must now, as then, be that irresistible force for freedom.
Again, you are the nimrod...There 9500+ POs (9161 pay code) then look at the PO's as Det, ET canine, FTO etc and you move to 11,000+ now factor in the sgt's, Lt's, Capt's and Commanders etc you are at 13000+ (13,200 something if I remember correctly)...Nobody has ever said there 13,500 blue shirts, just officers of all ranks and assignments.
9/17/2008 01:11:00 PM
________________________________
PAY CLOSE ATTENTION: The City no longer says '13,500 sworn'. It now says 'around 13,000 police employees'. That changed about a year ago.
I don't care WHAT Clear says. We've had a ton of attrition with almost zero new hires. The number CAN'T stay the same indefinitely, so somebody's lying.
And for the goof who keeps insisting 13, 500 means everybody, up to the First Deputy, we KNOW what it means. It's just not true. We can not possibly have 13,500 sworn on the job. When eight hundred leave and one hundred are higher, you have a net loss of seven hundred. When that happens over several years, you are not maintaining departmental strength and lying about it doesn't make it so.

Gee, so glad you signed that you were a fed. I mean, we couldn't tell from your writing style, points made, or anything like that.
Press Releases are available on the CLEAR System under the Bureau tab. Click on Supt. Office then News Affairs. There is a drop down menu including Press Releases. Pour yourself around two inches of Scotch go to the site and be prepared for some good giggles. Years ago we had a Deputy Chief who was nicknamed Skeletor (I think that's how it's spelled)John Corliss was his name. An asshole of monumentous proportions. Now we have a female version we can call Skelette. Ole Monique resembles someone who may come to your house on the 31st of October in search of a goodie.

Hey J-Fed if you read this post the REASON people do NOT like you is because you say one thing and do another. You say... hey lets have a meeting and lets field ideas and I want to hear from the guys/gals in the trenches.. Then you went and did ABSOLUTELY nothing. We need change, we need to know you will have our back no matter what the fuck goes on out there, when we are in the alleys, streets all god damn night working in the ghetto-infested districts. Because I can tell you right now that no one thinks you have their back, and that really makes a difference when you are working in the busy districts. We already have to worry about guns on the street, people fighting with us and so forth, but then we have to worry about every move we make and if we will still have our jobs!!!
Thanks for NOTHING!!!!

1st watch.
Why do people keep posting about how many cops there are? How hard is it to find the real number if you want to? God, learn how to do some research instead of getting your information from the peanut gallery of a blog.
The constant crying about how many blue shirts vs. other ranks or assignments. Who cares? We know the numbers are down and Shortshanks isn't hiring. We also know that whatever comes out of the mouths of the pricks at shitty hall will be a fucking lie.
Try to focus on the issues which matter to us like the contract and pension.
! Bye bye Olympics! Keep up the good work guys and gals! That is all!

O/T whats with the female POs working the female lockup in 005?
_________________________
To the SCC Blogger for 9/17/2008 04:54:00 PM:
Have you ever worked the female lockup? Not the most pleasant job, but I understand the frustration.
A well respected veteran officer once suggested that the Female area lockups should have a rotation of detailed officers from all the districts that are assigned to that area.
Great concept, since officers from gang, tact and rapids are sent to problematic districts, why not do the same with the problematic lockup?
Only a limited number of female POs are assigned to an area, usually the ones without the phone calls. It’s an additional task that we have to burden, getting off a late car the night before and having to return the next day to work the lock up with a much earlier start time. Add some court in the morning and you are truly screwed!
It's bad enough that the females assigned to an area not only get stuck working the lock-up, but when you are ACTUALLY working the street, you get called for guard detail. Usually it is a female, brought in by another district, from the lock-up to the hospital. I always feel so bad when working with my male partners, because we are going to get screwed either way when they need a female or male officer for a prisoner transport.
If detailing females from another district is too complicated, they should at least have the arresting district car meet the transporting car at the hospital and have one of their female POs sit on the prisoner, since the prisoner originally was arrested in that other district. This may alleviate the back log, and 3 cars in one district would not be down on guard details….

Your wrong! He is a member of the Chicago Police department and is bound by the rules and regulations as is any other sworn or civilian member. Leroy Martin had a contract also. Learn what your talking about before you post you moron. I should know that with my position in the CPD.
If JFed was a contract empolyee then why did he have to move into the city along with his buddies Brust and Daley. Burst makes over 200,00 with stipend for housing. Dont know about the daley guy or the new guy in IAD. Anyone know that there is a FED running IAD at the County level?? This is a back door consent decree and its all about the olympics.
TO: Will have to check IVC but I think you only have 10 days to register your vehicles once you move here. Hell, I've got no clout and work in a shithole--I'd have no problem pulling him over--imagine the press coverage!!! It could be front page and nat'l news!!!
625 ILCS 5/3-801 30 day grace period once he established residency in this state..
1/2 wit, He is under contract w/ the city not sworn, therefore he's not bound by the rules & regulations of the CPD. You read correctly, He implements Rules& Regs but is under no obligation to adhere to them. Nice Huh?

Hey 1/8 wit:
What rock you been living under.
He was sworn in and that is why he has a star, can carry a gun, and wears the uniform.
As for enforcing the rules and regs; He is a city employee, required by ordinance to live in the city and as such subject to all rules and regs. Its just that nobody has the balls to write him/call him on this.
why dont we show him how wrong he is and everybody who's got any balls left out there
come in with zero on one specific day like lets say
saturday every watch in every distric come in with nothing no parkers no movers no contact cards no arrest nothing so we can show him how much we do communicate through this blog and if we can do that then maybe the next step if saturday is succesful is everybody hit the medical or whatever but we gotta show them that we are united that we are what counts and we are not insignificant we the few who are out there are what keeps this shit hole from burning to the fucking ground every day
HI AGAIN FROM DA MAYOR...
You are all insignificant, not just this coo coo SCC fellow. Haven't I made that clear to you yet..I must be slipping..
Your Mayor
Dick Daley
! Bye bye Olympics! Keep up the good work guys and gals! That is all!
Where do you people get this shit from. COMMUNIST CHINA had the Olympics do you really think they give a fuck about crime in this city. Again Communist China our partners. no freedom got the OLYMPICS.
A half trillion dollars of trade with the U.S. per year got them the Olympics! You buy the Olympics, you don't win it!
Not Sworn?????? What's he doing with our uniform on? How aboaut that badge?? That's called impersonating an officer. Arrest that impersonator!!!!!!!!!
You son may what to have more information before you open the pie hole again. Throughout my 29 years I have known (many directors) who are not sworn, who had gold stars and other CPD personal Shankle he was the Commander of the Academy he had a gold star. Shortshanks can sign a contract with anyone for what ever the hell he wants. You guy on this department had better READ what a contract is. Your scary.
WE ALL KNEW WHERE TERRY AND PHIL LIVED BUT DOES J-FED LIVE ANYWHERE IN CHICAGO. DOES ANYONE KNOW
Guess what! MAYBE his contract says he doesn't have to live in the city. You people have real problems. Do you understand what a contract is Daley has a verbal contract with Illegals when he says come on in to Chicago, we will not enforce the law. I'm not a teacher boys and girls ask them how a contract works.
