Daley Welcomes Outsiders?
- Mayor Richard Daley today defended Police Supt. Jody Weis' request that the U.S. Secret Service investigate a recent incident where a 14-year-old boy tricked Chicago police into thinking he was an officer.
"I don't know why people don't like other people coming in to look at the process you're in," Daley said. "There's nothing wrong with that. I salute [Weis] for doing that."
Let's see...
- Daley has attempted to undercut his own Inspector General on numerous occasions, even signing a rule that say the IG cannot investigate aldercreatures, arguable the most corrupt of all political creatures.
- The Machine/Combine (led by Daley) actively fought to prevent former Senator Peter Fitzgerald from appointing the current US Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald coming in and upsetting the apple cart that is Illinois politics. Daley even had his tame Senator Turban try to circumvent the process by which the senior Senator recommends the US Attorney for their state.
And we've all seen how he hates whenever the media manages to uncover some low level scam that burns a few unclouted pawns and leads to promises of massive reform, all of which are forgotten by the time the next election rolls around.

Nothing new there.
A smart manager would conduct both an internal investigation and an external investigation.
Internally:
Establishing a task force of representatives from every rank, from top down will really root out the problems, because we all live with the problems day to day. Paying close attention to the recommendations made by the multirank internal task force will help to achieve "buy in" at every level. Each member of the internal task force, during meetings, should be treated equally and their input valued equally.
An outside professional meeting facilitator with mediation skills would be a good choice to run the meetings. (I'm available ;-)
Externally:
a smart leader would ask the internal task force to sanction an external task force and seek their recommendations as to who to ask.
Choosing feds...probably not the wisest idea.
Choosing a multirank task force from other large urban police departments and offering to work together to improve BOTH police departments would be collaborative, strength based and empowering for everyone to create the "buy in" to keep all stations as safe as possible....
Gemma
these are questions the chicago fucking media should be asking...but wait, they are all tame little pencil pushers waiting for the french style newspaper bailout. i can't wait for our tax dollars to pay for that.
Paul Vallas is in the running for Cook County Board President..........Every cop in the Cook should vote for him!!!
How about welcoming "outsidrs" like the fbi and Patrick Fitzgerald to investigate his criminal actions? What about the clear violation of federal laws in regards to illegals? Joey the clown is now going to prison while daley and the 50 are still running the largest criminal enterprise in the history of the world!
Like we're a bunch of assholes.
It doesn't take the Secret Service to identify security breach susceptibilities.
The city need only ask the rank-and-file police officer or the security people that watch the door at some of Chicago's beautiful people night-spots like Underground, Manor etc. and admit only the beautiful people over 14 years-old or coke dealers.
I think the Secret Service evaluation is more about the SS internally ascertaining what police districts run a tight ship and which don't so they know which districts can be relied upon to know their stuff on manpower and security when the President is in town.
Buck Naked
(not a cop)
Station Security is a must. Place an officer at the rear entrance to check for ID's. Have the desk crew be responsible for the front door. (no more goofing off on computers) Have the court people park across the street(025) not in back lot. Have Streets and San guys use their time clock at their building next door.
Security in all the stations is a joke and always has been. There is no reason for people to be in the station or walking in theparking lots, unless they are there for a police purpose.
Maybe Daley wishes to get the CPD off the city budget and on to the federal dole.
Submit to the Feds and they'll never leave. Think LAPD.
Good then I hope they find a lot out and then put out a lengthy report to embarrass the city and police dept.
www.olympic.org This is the offical website.
There is a forum to ask the IOC questions and a Int' phone number. We should call and question their choice of CHICAGO hosting the 2016 Olympics.

Just a shot in the dark, but worth a try.
Remember Ddaley wants our contract settled by this April. Vote no! Screw him.
Food for thought-
If Tom Daschle was forced to withdraw his nomination for Secretary of Health and Human Services beause a friend had supplied him with a car and driver which the IRS considers income and he did not report it as income, shouldn't the exempts be required to do the same thing? How many do? But my beef is actually not with the exempts. The exempts are "executives" (I know,I know) and a car is considered one of the perks. But what about all these other people who are given take home cars when they have no other use for them other than to drive to and from work and take the kids to school? Like a Youth Division Commander. Or the Tac Lt. Or the Commander of R&D. Or the Commander of ERPS. Or the Commander of Preventive Programs. Or any one of the other "chosen few" who get a car because they are connected. Are they required to declare the car as income? Do they? Just wonderin.

SSC WE NEED AN OUTSIDER IS NAME BERWYN POLICE CHIEF WILLIAM KUSHNER, THE REAL POLICE.
Speaking of forked tongues, didn't Da Mayor state that taxpayers would have to pay for vandalism to Churches yesterday?
A major Chicago cultural icon, Holy Name Cathedral, suffered extensive fire and water damage today from a three alarm fire. The Cathedral just finished an extensive multi-million dollar rehab and recently reopened to the public.
Didn't former Governor Rod Blagojevich and the State of Illinois end up giving Pilgrim Baptist Church one million tax dollars to rebuild from their fire?
Pilgrim Baptist Church Gets $1 Million From State
Pilgrim Baptist Church in Chicago has finally received the $1 million promised it by Gov. Rod Blagojevich to help rebuild the fire-damaged structure next to the destroyed sanctuary.
The Blagojevich administration, in what it claims was "a bureaucratic mistake," originally gave $1 million to a school that had been a tenant of Pilgrim Baptist Church before the landmark structure was gutted by a 2006 fire.
Financial reports show Loop Lab School had $243 in cash and a $32,000 debt at the start of 2006, just six days before it lost the space it was renting when fire destroyed the building.
http://cbs2chicago.com/local/pilgrim.baptist.state.2.761495.html
As a Chicago taxpayer and a resident of Illinois I hereby demand that the same monies and assistance be rendered to the rebuilding of Holy Name Cathedral. You travel a very slippery slope when you play the Socialist race game.
I think this may become a very significant issue in the near future.
I know every politician worth their salt reads this blog, pay heed, the voters are also alert!
The Inspector General unveiled verifiable Democratic "Machine Fraud" in (50th Ward)Alderman Bernard Stone's re-election against Daisy Nolar.
Ever since he threatened the very foundation of the machine's power base, vote fraud, the Democrats of Chicago,Cook County and Illinois want him gone.
One way to combat the F@#ked up politics in Chicago is to employ a unit of specially trained detectives, supervisors and ASA's to look into alligations of wrong doings by politicans. These officers can not have any political influence. Believe me, I've been on the job for a while. There are officers on this job that don't know or want to know a chicago politican. Investigate, arrest and convict any politican conducting unlawful business. It's about time we should stand up for ourselves against the same politican that would screw us in a minute to better themselves.
How are you going to get them to come out ??? You can't get them to respond when you get arrest for bogus money ....
Weis's doings??
U.S. investigation of Chicago police torture widens to include colleagues of Jon Burge
Federal prosecutors continue to investigate decades-old allegations that Chicago police routinely tortured murder suspects, focusing on a half-dozen detectives following the recent indictment of former Cmdr. Jon Burge, the alleged ringleader, sources said.
Subpoenas served on the city show that prosecutors are looking at detectives long linked to Burge and the South Side precincts where he worked mostly during the 1980s. Among them: former Sgt. John Byrne, considered Burge's right-hand man, and former detective Peter Dignan.

Hats off to the CPD and CFD heroes who saved Holy Name Cathedral today.
You did the City of Chicago proud!
Scc, does this surprise you?
He has to say that...dont forget J-Fed was forced on him by the "G"..He couldnt get rid of J-Fed if he wanted to. We were almost under a consent decree.J-Fed isnt going anywhere for awhile, nomatter how incompetant he may be....now Masters is a Daley boob/stooge/weasel...he could be tossed around just like Huberman..If any one should go,...it should start with him..
"Let's see...
Daley has attempted to undercut his own Inspector General on numerous occasions, even signing a rule that say the IG cannot investigate aldercreatures, arguable the most corrupt of all political creatures.

What a shame ! Daley & his Alderthieves need all the close scrutiny they can get & then some.
They would all look very stylish with orange DOC jumpsuits & leg shackles doing the convict shuffle !!
man, shortshanks is a dope, isn't he? Just when one thinks, well, maybe the guy has learned "something" in all the years he's been around, then he says or does something that just confirms he's still a dope...
The "Machine" silences the voice of the people. The Chicago Sun Times has now removed all comments on all articles, on its online edition.
Stiffling the common man's voice equates to outright propagandization and censorship.
What would you expect from the Chicago Controlled Press!
Off Topic......Ed Schwartz, a good friend to Police and Fire, passed this morning.
RIP Ed.
Freedom of Information Act: Ask to see the real city budget. Ask why the mayor has his office swept for bugs everyday.
Yeah He didn't seem to share this attitude when Noelle Brennan came to town investigate Shakman? Oddly the Press never calls him on it.
Just a bit?
As long as the outsiders, maybe Fitzgerald, is not looking at him then he is ok with it!
I DON'T KNOW IF I SAID THIS BEFORE (HA-HA-HA) DALEY IS A F%#KIN IDIOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
daley was looking greasier than ever yesterday during his "halloween" press conference shot at the police. after hearing his comment i made a commitment to myself to do even less than the little that i already do. and, by the way, who cares about the contract now after a statement like that was made in a public forum. its time to circle the wagons, the little emperor cannot control his own fish bowl, but he can run his mouth about someone elses. fuck this little idiot sycophant, i feel the need to go to the back of the park and study the back of my eyelids.
Dorothy Brown is trying to use the appointment of the Hoob as the head of the CPS as a rallying cry to stir the masses and fashion a launching pad to take a run at RMD in the next mayoral election.
Although she is educated, experienced, qualified and an attorney, I do not think she is strong enough, or able to become politically stronger, in order to topple RMD.
We have to find an Obama-like candidate with a message of change to get shortshanks into the ranks of the wealthy retired. I will work my ass off for him or her. It will be a great day to see RMD hailing a cab to take him home in defeat!
One good bit of news though, is the Vallas announcement that, under the Republican banner, he will take on the Toddler. I feel the breeze of change coming. I certainly hope the breeze has the potential to become a full blown midwest tornado and clean out city hall and the county building!
To paraphrase H.L. Mencken, "No one ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the" (Chicago electorate).
Some may say that Daley is a Machiavellian political genius who has managed to escape his corrupt reign of tyranny relatively unscathed.
I am not among them. At best, he is an idiot savant. Just read the inane comments attributed to this shameless, arrogant bully. He "owns" local media. It even appears that our highly regarded U.S. Attorney, Patrick Fitzgerald, pulls his punches when it comes to Daley.
Da Mare exploits an electorate of nitwits and clout beneficiaries by interspersing vacuous gibberish with non sequiturs. He is a shamelessly corrupt, arrogant, vindictive and very powerful dumbfuck. God help us!
Unless he is delusional, I doubt that da WEISel still regards Second City Cop as "insignificant". He need look no further than SCC's imminent milestone: FIVE MILLION (5,000,000) visitors. Only a fool would consider such readership as anything less than formidable.
Congratulations, SCC! God bless you, the FIRST AMENDMENT and our SCOTUS buddies Connick, Pickering and Mt. Healthy.
Yea obama and daley will keep us safe! http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0209/18390.html
Why doesn't shortshanks allow the FBI & Fitzpatrick into his office and into the filing cabinets.....Lets see what they find? Cant wait to hear the taps from Shortshanks' phones whoooo hooooo!!!!
Let's see Shortshanks welcome Federal Auditors who would look over the city's books.
I'd love to see the expression on his face and hear him sputter non-sense.
....WHERE'S OUR MONEY?!?
And you still don't think he's in bed with the G? How is it that he continues to unethically rule and nobody can touch him!?
???? WHAT THE F? WHY BRING IN THE SS? WE THE CPD ARE SO SCREWED UP THAT WE CANT INVESTIGATE THIS> HEY FIRE FROM THE SGT UP TO THE DC AND U HAVE THE CASE SOLVED!THIS JOB IS BS
** SCC DO NOT DELETE **
We need clarification on this issue for those who may have recieved a settlement in the Shakman suit.....Do you or do you NOT pay taxes on this $$ you recieved as damages from this suit?? I have been told that you MUST pay unless it is the result of physical damage / disability..Can someone please clarify this for us..Thank you.
the sad fact is that if we just followed the existing measures that we were supposed to have in place for station security, we wouldn't have many of the problems we have recently experienced. But the truth is that the department will fuck its own for doing their jobs as defined by the general order when it is politically "expedient" to do so. The best of many examples of this is Captain Buslik formerly of 25 who tried to maintain station security, as was his obligation by general order, and was subsequently publicly ass fucked by the now retired diminutive political windbag Charlie Williams. They can't expect the rank and file to do their jobs when they will fuck a captain for doing his.
"I don't know why people don't like other people coming in to look at the process you're in," Daley said. "There's nothing wrong with that. I salute [Weis] for doing that."
So, then, may we conclude that richie won't mind if Hoffman brings in Fitzgerald to 'look at the process(es)' richie is 'in'?
And will 'salute' Hoffman for doing so?
Mayor Daley said today he unloaded four of Chicago’s most valuable assets for a $6 billion mountain of cash, in part, because city employees are clock-watchers who don’t think about the customers.
Like you think of anyone other than your relatives and friends when you dish out the contracts. We all know you don't care about us.
OT: WASHINGTON—A USA Today/Gallup poll on actions taken by President Obama showed the least support for his January 23 decision to reverse the Mexico City Policy and restore U.S. funding to organizations that perform and promote abortion in developing nations.
53 MILLION ABORTIONS TO DATE OF INNOCENT UNBORN CHILDREN...can you imagine the size of the gravesite if we were to give these babies their memorial.
now the USA who at one time represented life, liberty, & freedom represents DEATH to the rest of the world with this decision.
with the USA facing an approximately ONE TRILLION DOLLAR BAILOUT, how can you justify funding the killing of innocent unborn children as a solution to
3rd world countries for what?...poverty, overpopulation, etc.
with all our technology, medical health/agricultural advancements, etc., is this the BEST we can offer as a GOOD NEIGHBOR--DEATH IS THEIR ONLY OUT?!
Mayor Daley said today he unloaded four of Chicago’s most valuable assets for a $6 billion mountain of cash, in part, because city employees are clock-watchers who don’t think about the customers.
“They’re not customer-related. They’re gonna leave at 5 o’clock. They’re gonna leave at 4:30 or 4:00. I’m sorry. We’re on a time clock. They walk out. But, in the private sector, when you have a customer, you’re gonna stay there making sure they’re happy and satisfied,” Daley said.
“We can’t compete with the private sector. The private sector has a complete idea of who your customers are. Government doesn’t have customers. They only have citizens.

What a hypocrite. First he creates the monster, then he criticizes it.
Most of these lazy bastard City workers that "watch the clock" are his childhood friends, their wives, mob-connected relatives, cousins, Bridgeport neighbors. He's a global liar and complete jagoff.
We marched to the "Here come the Feds" tune in February. Look how much better off we are with and "outsiders perspective." When will Daley stop this stupidity.
It is good to see the anti Ron Huberman sentiment carried over from CPD to CPS after his little pension grab stunt.
They still won't do anything when the Secret Service Report comes back. It would cost money from the precious olympic bid!
Same old CPD, can't utilize the resources they have or manage people properly!
King Shortshanks must be thrown into the the pit of lions and fend for thyself. He must not have any protection from his CPD knights, aka security guys from bridgeport.

You coppers should like someone else comming around sticking their noses in your business as much as that crummy Daley likes the FED comming into City Hall with the subpoenas sticking their noses into his business. What an asshat he is for crying out loud.
Anyone investigating Mike Masters and the fact he is not sworn and
1. Carries a gun
2. Is bypassing the rules regarding being a police officer with the assistance of Matt Tobias, and is taking the power test and qualifying with a weapon
3. Made an arrest on New Years (impersonating the police - he should be arrested)
4. Hit a bicycle rider in a city car
5. Interfered with an investigation, got called down by IPRA, and now mysteriously they are always the target on our blog
6. Has no police experience but is making all the police decisions - he really runs the department, Jfed is just a figure head
7. Decides who gets promoted and who gets demoted
8. Now thinks he is so smart that he is temporarily taking Monique Bond's job to put himself in the spotlight
9. Is the most arrogant member besides Jfed on this department
10. Should be administratively impeached like the governor - well Jfed too!
I've been writing safety grievances for years now about all the same issues recently "discovered " by mayor chuckie. All answered with typical cpd bullshit and promptly ignored.
I wrote about lack of leg irons on wagons. I was told to buy my own if I wanted them, they were kept in the lockups. Then the department was embarrassed by a couple of highly publicized escapes. Result: leg shackles on wagons overnight and inspectors writing up wagon crews who didn't shackle their prisoners. Back to normal a few months later.
I wrote about no tasers for wagon crews. Results: nothing.
This department does nothing until a tragedy strikes or the department is embarrassed in a highly public way. This is how it works here.
If you want to get something done that needs to get done, figure out a way to embarass the city, it will then get done.
I thought in Chicago the FEDs are not welcome. They have amnesty from Federal laws on immigration but they want FEDs help with security. You want their help but you refuse to help them. Wonder how many illegals the security investigation will find working in your building as janitors etc... Then what will they do when the same people they ask to come in and help point that out and they refuse to follow their suggestions.

Thank God for the 59-0 vote and I'm sure your EPU and D-Chgo people are absolutely relieved that he is gone...That being said, we unfortunately have a balless commander on CPD that had a closed door meeting with Blago at his house and was kind enought to provide Ex-Governor Braindead the direct phone number to the Watch Commander's Office, in case there are any problems or they don't feel safe or whatever crap he came up with....Hey Commander, Blago is now just another jagoff citizen that has no respect for the police regardless of the color of their uniform, you want to give him the number it's real simple 911.....and he can wait like everyone else because we are short officers and in a backlog every day....

Anyway, who exactly is this Mike Masters guy that I keep hearing about and what does he do? Where did he come from? Is he new? I think I heard he is the Mayor's guy and is a civilian assisting J-fed working out of 35th Street. I may be wrong. Is there any truth to the stories of him carrying a firearm and making an arrest? Also heard he was DUI and got the political cover-up. Nothing would shock me coming out of city hall. Be safe brothers!
Good for the Goose - good for the Gander. Send in the clowns to really see what's behind the curtain on the 5th Floor of both teh Hall and HQs.
They can't expect the rank and file to do their jobs when they will fuck a captain for doing his.

How TRUE....!!!!!
Don't rag on Blago. Who gives a shit if he calls the W/C in 017? The worst he will do is wake him up.
Blago has the keys to Pandora's Box. He can blow Daley, Obama, Emmanuel and lots of others, out of the water.
I only have 2 things to say.
1. Whatever it is that Weis or the G have over Daley's head it must be really good.
2. If this city was run like a business we would be out of business.
That is all.
Isn't it funny only a Federal investigation can find corruption in illinois?
Funny how State, county , and local district prosecutors can't seem to find any wrong doings.
I will vote against Daley every damn time!
Okay Dugan, or Dugan supporters, you didn't post my comment because it mentioned Cuello, is that it? Just let me know so I won't waste my time next time writing. Though many of us use this computer since it is located at our part time, and we all have different opinions, please clarify. You posted Chalkies comment who wrote write after me.
Thanks

OT: I would like to thank the PO who gave my sister a ticket after she told him I was a PO. Officer working beat 32.. I hope your family gets the same treatment from all of us. I never gave a PO's family a ticket, especially after they told me who they were. So to you working on South Central Ave last night...Hope you made your numbers and I hope it made your day. I guess Police stickers don't matter these days. For the rest of us who are the real POLICE-stay safe and remember we are our only friends on the streets

If Tom Daschle was forced to withdraw his nomination for Secretary of Health and Human Services beause a friend had supplied him with a car and driver which the IRS considers income and he did not report it as income, shouldn't the exempts be required to do the same thing? How many do? But my beef is actually not with the exempts. The exempts are "executives" (I know,I know) and a car is considered one of the perks. But what about all these other people who are given take home cars when they have no other use for them other than to drive to and from work and take the kids to school? Like a Youth Division Commander. Or the Tac Lt. Or the Commander of R&D. Or the Commander of ERPS. Or the Commander of Preventive Programs. Or any one of the other "chosen few" who get a car because they are connected. Are they required to declare the car as income? Do they? Just wonderin
No more take home cars for bosses, no more holding slips and early ducks for PO's
Even Steven!!!

If you have a problem contact irs they have to declare as income only if it is used for "personal miles" otherwise the answer is no and shut the fuck up!
In the Italian mob they're called godfathers
In the Irish mob they're call aldermen
Always was, always will be
Make each day count for YOU
That is all....carry on
"Daley Welcomes Outsiders?"
That's good to know. I'll just bet Mayor Daley really welcomed those FBI agents when they came to City Hall to seize personnel records and more regarding corrupt hiring practices.
How did you welcome them Mayor? Did you stand there with a big smile and open your arms and say something like "Welcome to Chicago! We welcome outsiders coming in here investigating us, and it's about time too! Phew! There's so much corruption going on here I was wondering when you outsiders would take an interest. Thanks for coming to Chicago"
Yeah, it must have gone something like that.
Maybe they will come again. Soon.
STFU, now you want to pimp out coppers getting a duck? the only thing a Sgt. really has left to reward us? you sir a gigantic pussy and need a beating....
Okay Officer Anonymous,first of all it would take a real man to beat my ass,which you ain't...pussy.
You whine and bitch about take home cars which really ain't a perk, because most of the exempts who have them are on 24 hour call.
I'm not a gold star fan, but would you want to be on 24 hour call for this shitty job? -I don't.
Like I said, what's good for the goose is good for the gander. If bosses don't have perks-neither should PO's-At least not the non working , depolicing officers, which would be you.
So shut up whining about the take home cars already. I'm not an exempt or clouted person with a
take home, so don't try to use that line on me. You sound like a whiny, envious jealous hearted
little bitch hater. You probaly hate those with corner offices and cute secretaries too.
Asshat.
daley welcomes outsiders?? then why doesnt he welcome them to come and take a look at the political corruption which he says doesnt exist. or further investigate the hired truck scandle etc..
There was a comment made on this site regarding making the CPD Federally Funded.
That might be with the mayor is pushing for.
Another tax liability he can right off. No responsibility. Someone else to blame.
What say ye all ?
Is it possible ?

It is whining, snitching pussies like this one here that have ruined this job. Dude, shut the fuck up, do your job and hope for the best. Don't be a snitch, be a man.
shortshanks says it's ok to look at what everyone else is doin' & holding everyone else accountable... just don't bother him, he's too busy "thinking outside the box."
it's kinda like trying to figure out who dropped a big flaming deuce in the punch bowl at a party of 500... 1000 eyes saw him do it but he still denies, regardless of burns & shitstains because he's the king of all he surveys and if all else fails he'll start blubbering about his kid...
the municipal electorate are idiots... only illegals & westside running dogs vote for this asshole, hence sanctuary city & a haven for gangbangers & their syncopants.
five years to retirement, selling everything & moving several states southwest!
"bro, i just know you voted for obama!" "...i'm not your bro & no the fuck i didn't!"
*priceless look of horror*

Seriously, sure a lot of that is going on. But I am not clouted, and I have a take-home car. It is a pain in the ASS.
You cannot do things on the way home because you worry that if something happens, 'oh crap'! Especially now with GPS.
I am CONSTANTLY worried about getting into an accident, because I had one a few months ago, and am wondering how much time I'll take over it, since I have no clout.
Now I have to dig 3 cars out of the streets that the city doesn't plow.
If you go through red lights or stop signs because you're listening to the zone and hear something nearby, and you go, you run the risk of some idiot yuppie calling IAD or whoever handles that crap.
When you have to go to Homan Square and drive through shitsville twice a day, ALONE, in unfamiliar territory, and you witness a crime in progress, you have to stop--at least I do. Because what if something happened, and some witness got your plate, and you failed to take action, if you're not clouted kiss your butt bye-bye.
I don't care about getting dumped from the unit, I just don't want to get time for 'an honest mistake.'
If idiots are picking up kids or anyone else, they are incredibly stupid because God forbid you have an accident or are spotted by some inspector..........
But I guess the clouted people don't give a crap about that, because nothing will happen to them.
For me, it's a pain in the ass.
And the reason some units have take-home cars is because you go on interviews or drive-by addresses on the way in or home, etc. It's kind of crazy and a waste of time to have to drive to Homan Square, get a car, then drive all the way back out to somewhere you could have stopped at on the way in or home.
I know there are a lot of abuses, but please don't be haters to everyone with a take-home, because it's no picnic if you're not clouted.
If I had the option, I would turn that car in TOMORROW. And I guarantee you, I have never, ever, ever, used that car in an unauthorized manner. Never. So maybe just keep in mind that there are some good coppers out there, who don't have take-homes because of clout, or rank, or whatever, it's because they have no choice. Sorry for the rant, but I truly do HATE that car.
He has to say that...dont forget J-Fed was forced on him by the "G"..He couldnt get rid of J-Fed if he wanted to.
Writer, your comment was right on. I feel like a boob because I never put it together before...duh!
That is why Daley will NEVER, EVER get locked up. He made himself a sweet deal. There's no doubt in my mind....
WE ARE TRULY DOOMED. SO SAD....
Shortshanks speaks with a forked tongue.
Nothing new there.
*********************
Having Daley as mayo now makes Harold Washington look like first prize........this town is unf---ing real. I have always said this...there are 3 things that motivates those with no soul, or teeter on the edge...sex, money and power. Not sure I got those in the right order. Sigh. I hate this state. When I retire I'm moving at least 3 or 4 state's away. Maybe Utah, hey, maybe even Canada.
Isn't it funny, you NEVER hear ANYTHING about what is going on in Canada. I don't even know who their leader is...no scandals in the news day after day, nothing. I don't even know what Canadians' opinions are on ANYTHING!
Doesn't that sound like the Garden of Eden????
"Like a Youth Division Commander"
Youth Division was disbanded 5 years ago. Funny you didnt include 1 ADS/Civilian or otherwise in the mix or all the civilian clowns that work for various city departments or the 55 exempts on the Fire Department?
"with all our technology, medical health/agricultural advancements, etc., is this the BEST we can offer as a GOOD NEIGHBOR--DEATH IS THEIR ONLY OUT?!

Perhaps you could e lead by example & adopt 50 or so Mexican Kids. Your post is totally irrelevant to the topic.
"SSC WE NEED AN OUTSIDER IS NAME BERWYN POLICE CHIEF WILLIAM KUSHNER, THE REAL POLICE."
He still smarting over the fact he can't crawl up on the Academy Roof w/a Shotgun during training scenarios. Nice Guy, But Stone MUSH

Can't make out his name.Beat 3232 working in 008 on Feb 4th. Anyone knows?
Why is Master's carrying a weapon? Did he take the qualifying course? Is he a sworn officer? Why is he making arrests? This is absolutely crazy.

You'll have to clarify which comment you mean. A bunch of stuff got flushed the other day because it mentioned things that never pass muster anyway, including allegations that don't see the light of day unless publicly revealed in an indictment.
To the copper who's sister got a ticket: Although I'm retired I just wanted you to know I never would have written your sister, brother, uncle, cousin, next door neighbor, fraternity brother, babysitter, second cousin, aunt's best friend, aunt's best friends hair stylist. Some of us know we're all we have and this is all we have left. If your sister had been driving like Mario Andretti, I would have given you a call about it and let you handle it. Sorry to step on 32's toes but someone has to let the new officers know how we do.

And what do you call whining about take home cars? manly, adult behavior?
I was looking in the dictionary for a definition of a whiny pussy snitch, and your picture popped up.
Man up, you eunuch.
If you see Master's carrying a weapon lock his ass up or just call IPRA and get a number!
Aren't those Secret Service people going to be pissed off that they're being called into investigate what is, for all practical purposes, a gigantic hoax by a naive and disturbed teen??? I'd call in sick.
By the way, the horse called again and repeated his request that you stop beating him. Forward this to the mayor.
Youth Division disbanded but they still have a Commander. Amazing city we work for isn't it.

No, Youth was renamed Special Victims around 2000/2001. SVU works in the areas and eventually fell under the control of the Area Commanders, rather than the Youth Commander. This happened shortly before Bartik left.
The remaining Youth Division folks, at HQ, handle all the juvenile arrest paperwork, keep the arrest records and history, receive all notifications for the approximately 2500 missing persons cases taken and cleared each month in this city, administer all referral and remedial programs involving juveniles, receive and record all DCFS hotline investigations on children for both physical and sexual abuse, they're responsible for the implementation and administration of the CAC (Special Investigations Unit/Sex Cases on kids) and Juvenile Court... oh, I'm sure I'm forgetting half of it, but you get the drift.
Basically, that small command still does a heck of a lot of work, even though you don't see it or hear about it. There's a lot of stuff mandated by State and Federal law regarding children. (And before the bitterness hits, no, I don't work there and never have.)
