Picketing Reminders
If you've read the FOP flyer, signs will be provided. We'll leave the phrases and wording to the boys at the Hall. We know they'll want to get out a serious message, so play by their rules. We can't see them objecting to a few "cute" signs carried by family members who show up. Something like "My Daddy needs a Contract" will almost guarantee your kid face time on TV and will bring home the point that we've been trying to raise families in this city for the past two years while the aldercreatures and their staffs got large raises and the other unions got better than average offers in return for ten years of labor peace.
A question:
A question:
- We heard families and other supporters are welcome. Are they responsible for their own transportation? If they are, bring quarters or parking cash. Don't give the TMA's an excuse to ticket and tow your family sedan.
And a bit of advice:
- Have a few video cameras around. The City will be filming and the last time we rallied, a number of people were more than a little casual about violating the First Amendment at the behest of the Administration.
- The on-duty guy is always right, administratively speaking. He might be 100% wrong in terms of First Amendment Rights, but don't doubt for a second that J-Fed and his underlings will throw the off-duty under the bus.
- Rules and Regulations will conflict with First Amendment Rights on occasion and until someone takes a test case all the way to the US Supreme Court, the Rules and Regulations will take precedence.
Rely on the FOP guys there to make statements, defuse volatile situations and sort out conflicts that might arise. We need a decent showing. And we need those who show to be decent.

Just want to thank the boss i work for. He is treating this like a "st jude" situation and everyone that shows up to the rally doesn't have to do either the spring or fall insp..., their choice.
He's a great boss and really cares about the troops and is trying to motivate us all to get off our asses and get down there. This is our future!
I think the rest of the bosses could learn a bit from this guy and if it unfortunately takes some kind of incentive to get the guys/numbers down there, then so be it. It's too important not to show up.
I don't care if it rains or snows i will promise you i will be there. I've stood outside and directed traffic for hours or handled accidents/shooting/etc.. wehre i was outside in terrible conditions for OTHER PEOPLE!
This is for OURSELVES!!!!
You bet your ass i'll be there.
The City of Chicago will soon be called the RED CITY because it is bleeding inside. The RUMBLE will begin 2 April 2009 at City Hall. To stop the bleeding we must have a large showing at the rally. If not Da Mayo will continue to bleed this city because he knows most Chicagoians are not paying attention to his shell games. I hope the union have signs that bring up TIFF money. This is Da Mayos biggest shell game that he has been playing the last 20 years. There is a lot of $$$$$$$$ in these slush funds (TIFFS) with no one to police DA Mayo on how these funds (property tax money) are used and who gets the money. So dont fall for Da Mayos empty left pocket when he cries the city is broke ask to see whats in his right pocket? Plenty of $$$$$.
LETS GET READY TO RUMBLE 2011!!!!!!
SCC,
by decent you mean I have to keep my pants on at the rally?
You are just a fun wrecker.
I figured a shot of me mooning City Hall would force the Mayor to give us a contract.
It's for the best anyway. I couldn't decide whether to go with my underoos or boxers.
I don't know about other districts but there will be a very good turnout from 009---everyone i've talked to is going....hope it's the same determination citywide...and yes this is the same 009 district that KING DALEY grew up in
ot:
keep hearing that homicides are way down from last year so i decided to do some stat finding of my own. 283 041A's have been pulled this year compared to 266 041A's last year at the same time. homicides might be down, but shootings are not.
wait till summer.
So leave the curious George t shirt at home, thanks, got it
richie, richie, -- we are coming in force to embarass you and show the unity of our brotherhood. richie, make no mistake about it, over 4,000 will be there to show the ioc and who ever else is watching how bogus you are.
They will be filming and CPD IAD and the CPD Intelligence Section will be there to do some "Red Squad"bullshit.Act professional and act in a dignified manner.If you have a video camera,bring it! They will have provocateurs mixed with us to create a incident for the news media to make us look bad to the public.If anyone near you starts getting out of line,put them in check.We are execising our 1st Amendment rights under the Constitution of the United States of America.Freedom of Speech!Millions of Americans have died to protect this great country and to protect the freedoms that we have. I am going to be there and damn proud and happy to be there with my Brother and Sister Police Officers!
Good luck and heed the advice given. Don't let J-Fed make any examples out of anyone. The world needs to see how Da Mayor and his aldercreatures treat the finest police officers in the world.
Good luck and God-Speed.
God Bless the CPD and nobody Else.
Stop listening to the mayor's BS problems with the economy. The shopping malls are not empty, and the hotel industry is booming. The city tax is $35.00 per night per hotel room, and the hotels are at capacity. Check it out yourself.
I just learned of an acquaintance who works at city hall and her only function is to answer email complaints. Her BS title is department manager. She just got a 6 percent raise per year. She is 29 years old without a college degree and is now making $95,000 per year. She got her job through family connections of an alderthief.
You know she is just one of many insignificant positions created throughout city departments. So don't forget, its not just the alderthiefs, teachers, press secretaries and such who got the raises. Its all of the city hall office workers who got them too. The mayor forgot to tell you that too, but I am livid and want to share this with my brothers.
I will see you at the rally with my team members and family.
You're giving the FOP shitheads quite a bit of credit here pal...
These assholes only wanted to be the ones calling the march because they were worried the people reading this blog were going to organize one WITHOUT their ass. They wanted to misdirect us AWAY from the IOC because they don't want the IOC observing us, per Daley wishes.
IMHO, don't trust the FOP jagoffs the intervene on your behalf to save you from shit, or be a witness on your behalf (which wouldn't mean shit anyway).
Again - sage advice & I couldn't agree more. Just a suggestion for any northwest siders heading downtown to show their support; hop on the Blue Line El and get off at Washington, you will be at the Daley Center - no parking problems & no traffic headaches.
See you there.
OT- couple of years ago I was minding my own business having dinner in the taco place near Granville and Broadway-early- so hardly any people in there-but a small group of local business owners having dinner or some sort of defacto meeting. I was the next table over so I couldn't help but overhear their conversation - which was all about the local TIF district. What their gripe was that Loyola got TIF money to produce 'low income' housing in the area.
Apparently-that's what Loyola calls DORMS!
Not only is the TIF money being misued but that's a clear violation of the seperation of church and state.
Is this it? One march on City Hall? Why are we not scheduling marches for the entire time the IOC is here? Why are we not marching on the hotels where the IOC is staying around the clock, the sites that the City will be taking them to see? Why are we not scheduling Officers so that we have a constant presence where ever the IOC goes? From the moment they wakeup and look out there window they should see off duty coppers's picketing. We should become their shadows. Here's why we aren't doing any of those things. Because Daley doesn't want us doing those things. Because he has the FOP in his back pocket he can dictate where, when and how long our protest will be. If the FOP really had the best interests of it's memebership in mind, they would be doing AT LEAST some of the above. But by scheduling this march for a lousy hour or two when the IOC is probably not even going to be there get's us to vent our steam when it really doesn't matter and when nobody will see it. If the FOP really had your best interests in mind they would be talking this us, going to roll calls, sending something to your home so that there is a big turnout. This is all a facade.
FYI, I have sat back for years and listened to all this stuff about how bad the FOP is, how the Presidents always sellout the membership in order to get a cush job when they leave, yada,yada,yada. I always thought it was a bunch of whiners,malcontents who were doing all this talkling. I was wrong. The FOP is a sham and has sold you out. I am now convinced of that. If you doubt me, one need look no further than this little march or the lack of anything besides this little march as proof of what a sham and sellout they really are. I will be at that march but I'm not fooled! FOP-SHAME ON YOU!
remember we have to live in the city.
a few of those alderscum have houses outside the city.
they don't get investigated by the I.G.
we try that and out you go.
The family of the deposed 14 yr old police impersonator has made a request. They want their son to be allowed to march with us on the 2nd.
i am going....i hope there is a huge turnoout.....if not, we will look like shit

Enough of this disention! We are one, and that it. I dont care how mucgh you hate the union. Put that aside for this, we are one
Good Luck to ALL.
Love---Mom
I'm sure that most of the "SCC FamilY" will be at the rally. So we need to concentrate more on convincing the rest of the membership to attend. We only have three days left folks. let's get out there and convince as many as possible to attend what is probably one of the most important functions since this department got collective bargaining!
As bad as things seem to be right now, you "new guys" are reaping the benefits that were fought for and won by the veteran officers still on the job. You really can't imagine what shitty working conditions and power the dept. had over you years ago.
we have been going backwards the past few contracts due to a lame FOP leadership. while this rally is a show of force to "King Richie", it's also to show the FOP that we're fed up with their lack of leadership also.
We've been settling for less than cost of living for several years now, paying WAY more for benefits and still having to live in Daley's "kingdom" that our salaries now can't afford. All while he dishes out pay raises to his alderthieves, their incompetent staff, teachers that don't teach, the trades that will build his Olympic empire and so on. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!
That POS had the gall to say on WBBM that we're being "greedy". Well Mr.Mayor, I don't see you any of the rest of who you got the raises returning them! SO FUCK YOU! And you also said that we should return to the bargaining table. For what asshole? YOU PULLED THE OFFER OFF, NOT US! Yet you go cry to the media that we're bein unfair. You really are losing it, aren't you? And the FOP still does nothing. No rebuttal, statement, nothing! Typical. And we wonder why the public thinks the way they do of us. They only get the midgets side of the story!
So that is why this rally is so important folks. It's our only way to get our voice out! So I don't care what you have planned, CANCEL IT and get downtown Thursday! IT'S YOUR CAREERS AT STAKE!
From a brother down south, good luck guys. Stick it to 'em and do not let up till you get what you guys (and gals) deserve.
Daley is saying that your protest will not affect the Olympics. This is how stupid he is. He kisses the asses of the fake reverends and phony civil rights leaders but for a worthy cause of noble self-sacrificing workers he thumbs his nose?
You picket to be visible, to inform, to attract attention at an advantageous newsworthy time.
Good luck to you all. Decent people want you to be treated with respect and honor and you deserve to be compensated for keeping the rest of us safe.

True to a certain extent, but they are the established authority who will have the greatest access to the press. Let them take the lead and don't be a jagoff no matter how you may feel.
how many condos have been put up in the last 10 years how much tax money are all these condo owners now generating for the city? where the fuck is that money? tax people for city services that aren't being provided wake up poeple of chicago
If the only issue raised is the lack of a contract, we will loose public support. A lot of people are out of jobs, a lot of people are laid off, a lot of people are happy just to have a job with no raise. We need some other issues - Lack of manpower which puts the Public at risk, lack of equip, unqualified leadership, np confidence in the Supt. It can't be all about money
Just want to thank the boss i work for. He is treating this like a "st jude" situation and everyone that shows up to the rally doesn't have to do either the spring or fall insp..., their choice.
So your boss is retiring next week???
F*** the mayor F*** J Fed. THE POLICE MUST COME TOGETHER AS ONE LARGE GROUP!! NO RACIAL/SEX/RANK DIVIDES. WE MUST BE TRUE BLUE!!
This job has changed way to much...there is to much divide and that is what the mayor wants. He wants us to fail however we must prevail!! Just remember we are in this together!!! The more people who show up the more "we" have to gain!!! Please help our cause!!

OK, I wont wear my t-shirt that asks on the front, How often do Chicago Police Officers get screwed?, and the back says Daley.
How about a counter SCC to track how many are going?
If one thousand show up, we could surround the entire block around city hall and the county building...bring one bring all!!!
If you still think the Olympics are a good idea- check this out:
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/nationworld/sns-ap-canada-vancouver-gangs,0,6710478.story
Vancouver (Hosting the 2010 Olypics) has had 45 murders already....what will happen to us?
Toronto has a city of 5.1 millions and 11 murders...
We have 3+ millions and what's the count now?
Protest the crappy pontract but protest the Olympics too!
Men please be PROFESSIONAL! All we need is to be portrayed as a bunch of loud mouthed, out of control boobs. Let the picket sponsors do the talking, we all know that a big mouth will get you in the s*** every time right! Our mere presence will be statement enough.
THE ACLU protected Michigan cops against their department banning their free speech rights:

001st District – Protest – Say NO to the Chicago 2016 Olympic Bid – Federal Plaza
Thursday, 2 April 2009 – 1700 hours
“No Games Chicago” group will protest while the International Olympic Committee is in town to
evaluate Chicago’s potential as an Olympic host. A permit application has been submitted, but has not
yet been approved. CTS is monitoring and will update as warranted. B.O.P. 09-003.47
Just beware, these groups hate the police, as many of you know, even though they are going to the federal plaza i wouldn't put it past them to come over to city hall to mess with us. The city probably gave them the permit hoping to make us look bad, so let's keep our cool and show the city the bad press that keeps being bestowed upon us is the minority of p/o's not the majority...
We all sit here and cry and complain about the Daley's and their nephews stealing the city and pension funds blind! We have here the best investigative tools around YOU! Most if not all Detectives are college educated and knows a crime when they see one! I hope. So why don't someone do a little investigative work and find the smoking gun and turn it over to the newspapers and the Feds because it seems they don't care anymore about you or this city!!!!!
keep hearing that homicides are way down from last year so i decided to do some stat finding of my own. 283 041A's have been pulled this year compared to 266 041A's last year at the same time. homicides might be down, but shootings are not.
All a numbers game. AggBatts are now classified as armed robberies if there is any discussion between the victim and offender. Check the number of robberies with person shot. You'll come up with a higher number.
Stop listening to the mayor's BS problems with the economy. The shopping malls are not empty, and the hotel industry is booming. The city tax is $35.00 per night per hotel room, and the hotels are at capacity. Check it out yourself.
And the resuraunts are SURE not empty!

After fox news reporting, about suicides being made for obvious homicides will they still kill crime??
Many of us will be taking the orange line at midway at 1000 hours lets hope for a "HUGE" showing!! Our time is now!!
Uniforms or plain clothes? Suggestion?
Remember be professional! We have class, do not give the public any reason to think otherwise. Don't be provoked or become confrontational.
They will be filming and CPD IAD and the CPD Intelligence Section will be there to do some "Red Squad"bullshit.Act professional and act in a dignified manner.If you have a video camera,bring it!

Yeah, I am taking the blue line so I won't have to park anywhere but the Cumberland parking lot....
PLEASE ATTEMPT TO VERIFY Brust ordered the IAD to film thursdays march put undercover IAD rats in the group.
One of the IAD guys called the FOP. The FOP notified the Corp Counsel, who called Weis and screamed about the 1st Amendment order. Weis puts out a memo to Cmndrs claiming its not true.
(if it is, it is absolutely in violation of the 1st Amendment Decree)
You're giving the FOP shitheads quite a bit of credit here pal...

3/30/2009 06:16:00 AM
Stick your IMHO where the sun does not shine. Now is not the time for dissension in our ranks. Now is the time to be united and stick together. I do not care if you feel FOP started the rally or FOP is jumping to the forefront of the rally, the result is the same, WE ARE HAVING A RALLY! Now is the time to show shortshanks that we, and others, are on to his antics and his kingdom is unraveling. WE DESERVE A CONTRACT NOW!
IMHO, stay home asshole. We do not need you. Stay home and be disgruntled. I am sure this will not be the first time you avoided the heavy end of the stretcher and stood back while somebody else did your heavy lifting. Stay home and watch our numbers on the news.
Yes, i'm hearing there's going to be enormous turnout from 009 also. I'll bet you anything you want that we'll have the most people there from any unit in the city...
WERA A DALEY MASK!!
HAVE SIGNS THAT ASK ABOUT DALEYS NUMERIOUS TRIPS ON TAX PAYER DIME
I don't know about other districts but there will be a very good turnout from 009---everyone i've talked to is going....hope it's the same determination citywide...and yes this is the same 009 district that KING DALEY grew up in
3/30/2009 01:37:00 AM
This is a call out for a strong showing from the Chicagoland 009 retirees! We had a large group get together on 13 SEP 08, prior to the decommissioning of the 35th & Lowe building, for a last 009th District Station group picture. Let's get together again on Thursday-02 APR 09-1100 hours at LaSalle/Washington and help the next generation get a fair contract.
No offense to the other districts, but 009 was the greatest place to work back in the day, I hope it is still. I was lucky to work with a bunch of legends, at least they are legends to me. Some are still with us and some have moved on to various earthly and non-earthly locations. Let's do ourselves proud. If you can, be there for the next generation and show our strength on Thursday-02 APR 09.
I would day 95% of my watch is going. Bring your wife/girlfriend/husband/boyfriend! It might not do a damn thing but at least it will be cool to do something, then sit back and do nothing. Forget the mayor, forget the media, forget the critics. Let do this for US! Besides, it should be fun!
As you people are picketing, remember this, Cozzi is going to jail, we have a fed in charge, a civilian complaint board, 5 or more unfounded, not sustained, and exonerated c.r.'s since 2000 are on a list given to a scum-bag lawyer, our pension is being robbed blind by the Daley crime family and excused by the F.O.P., health insurance gone after 2013 and T.R.R.'s now used against you.
And you people are marching for?
An offer of a 16% pay raise over 5 years by Daley taken off the table.
This picket/march seems foolish when there's so much more at stake, the contract is going to arbitration anyways. Who cares what Daley feels or thinks about us, we already know. Carrying a sign on Thursday outside city hall won't matter, Daley won't be there, nor will the Olympic committee.
Ask yourself this, where was the F.O.P. and their march when Cozzi was being indicted by the Feds?
My 9 month old needs diapers, so Im thinking i will have him go diaper less and hopefully he will shit as he is walking past the front doors of shitty hall!!!!!!!!
There will not be anybody from iad or anywhere else filming the protest. Give it a break. You'd like to think that, I know, but they are not equipped to covertly attend with a hope that some officer does something silly and they catch it on film. You are giving them way too much credit.
Relax, do the right thing, unite and assemble to show we deserve to be paid a higher salary than the complaint desk clerk in city hall. We earn it every day we go to work.
By the way, a raise is not a cost of living increase. We want the 4 percent cost of living increase, plus a 2 percent raise in our 'today-when-you-go-to-work-you-might-not-come-home-alive' job salary. Its not our fault the cost of living went up, so thats a freebe. Technically we are only asking for a 2 percent salary increase. Do not settle for anything less than 6 percent each year.
The apathy out there is pathetic. Myself and a couple others are going. But when you talk to others, they get that deer in headlight look and talk about it being their day off etc. I can understand if you have family obligations, otherwise everyone should attend.
RAIN OR SHINE - BE THERE BOYS AND GIRLS!!
How many of us have had to stand outside in inclement weather for a job related to a citizen.
Well, this time we have to stand outside for ourselves and our jobs.
Don't let the OD bosses intimidate you. Last time we did this, the OD guys in blue were in the background a block away and only came to city hall corners reluctantly after the deputy kept calling for them on the air.
WE GOT TO DO THIS!!
You can tell by shortshank's media clips that the boil on his ass is growing. Let's make it so that everytime he sits down it hurts.
They will be filming and CPD IAD and the CPD Intelligence Section will be there to do some "Red Squad"bullshit.
------------------
This march has drawn out the true nutballs on this job. They are flocking to it like its the space ship in Close Encounters.
Thirty percent of those attending will be wearing tin foil hats.
If you are not a nutball and you go to the march, be careful.
If you are a nutball, have fun. This is your time to shine.
EVERY ONE at protest should be in a CHALKIE shirt!!!
For those who say that you can't make a difference you are wrong. Just think how many people won't show up because they say it doesn't matter what I do. If we had just half of you show up that probably would be a huge number. This is something that you can do to help yourself. I was in a union before this job and heard the same complainants and the same bullshit that we can't make a difference believe me you can. March for your family and your fellow officers. We all need to know that this is not the time to be lazy and say what happens will happen because the city will eat us alive and it will be to late to do anything then. Just think of all the protests and all the bullshit marchs we have to go to, lets be there for ourselves and know that this is the beginning of the solidarity that the city is afraid to see. I marched in 2000 and I will march Thursday. I am not doing this for the FOP, not for any reason other then we deserve to be treated better. Lets make a small step together on Thursday and get this ball rolling. Its time we stand up for ourselves and say the hell to the the Mayor, alderman and the media. We deserve respect and we will get it sooner then later if we start now with a good turnout. As I said to my partner last night if you don't go then you have no room to complain because you had a chance to do something and you did nothing. Hope to see everyone there.
im on the medical but am ambulatory can i attend the ralley?
009 always was good about rallying for a cause. i enjoyed my time there.
Can we legally use the homeless?
Use this oppertunity for more than just the contract issue. Some should be carrying the usual "stop the violence and Don't shoot" signs as well. Let the media and the citizens know we as the Chicago Police are aware of and suport the issues that are important to them also.
Nothing will piss off Tricky Dick more than us showing every one we as the Police are not just thinking of ourself. Because thats how he wants everyone to see us.
You can't hide from this one Richy RICH. Anyone bringing a video camera should be prepared to post the march all over YouTube for the world to see. Also E-Mail the video to the IOC and all other cities bidding for the event.
Our Dicktator here in Chicago may be able to control the press here but he can't control YouTube or the international press! Make some calls to CNN, MSNBC and even Rush.
Lets have a little fun with this and make it count. He wants to build a new Olimpic Village and new venues all over the city. Lets show the IOC and the world the 3/4 of the rest of the city that is crumbling due to the Mayors years of neglect. Take some pictures in you own neighborhood to showcase the rotting infrastructure, decay and neglect.
Lets get a copy of the proposed new Olimpic Village and age the photo to show how it will look 5 years after the Olimpics are over.
We have the power to do so many things if we just get together and put our minds to work.
King Richy, just loves it when all we do is whine and bitch about what is going on. He can't stand it when someone or a group actually gets together and provides information or ideas the can put a kink in his armor or his wallet.
I will use one of his favorate sayings! "Together we can". We can make this our own. CPD, Together we can!
With the CPD, CFD and all other city agencies united, he has lost the battle. His blood pressure will go through the Olimpic Stadium Roof.
One last thing, Mr. Mayor. Just so you don't embarrass all of us infront of the IOC and the World. Get a fucken hair cut, you look like a pissbum that just crawled out of a cardboard box on lower Wacked drive.
You're giving the FOP shitheads quite a bit of credit here pal...

FINE... If you believe that, o.k. I am not going to dispute that with you one way or the other. The bottom line is that you show up and we have a good turnout.
Then we/you go to the next meeting and ask why we didn't picket in front of the IOC.
This is not the time to start bickering amongst ourselves as to where we are doing it. First lets just get together and start somewhere...
They will have provocateurs mixed with us to create a incident for the news media to make us look bad to the public.
------------
Ahhhh ... paranoia.
Bet no suckholes from 35th St. will be there. "I Have 9 years on the job and have been at Hdqrs. working in a p---y unit for 7 yrs. I'm not going to risk my little job." Fuck you pussies. Go work the street for 20 years and then come back and bitch-you fucking scared ass morons! The male officers are worse than the females.
I heard from a couple different places that we are not to bring our guns...THIS IS NOT TRUE!!
I talked to Bella at FOP, and he said people are saying everything trying to stop us from going.
This is not a riot, it's a picketing!!
We can bring our guns (we ARE the police!)
Standard rules apply....You'll most likely be in civilian clothes, hence, YOUR GUN MUST BE CONCEALED.
anyone read steinberg's article today? what a prick!
How dare you opppose the mayor of shanksville ? He calls this "mean"
whats really mean is not giving workers with familys to support a decent increase ! Shortyshanks, you want mean, look in a mirror !
When I voted on the trib site as ro whether or not there should be picketing at city hall, I wrote "Not enough police on patrol in the neighborhoods. No city streets, just the largest collection of potholes. Mayor getting another case of Feditis about his son and nephew using city pension funds as their personal pantry. Mayor should spend money on the city and forget about the Olympics. Chalkie can't find enough quarters to feed the meters." lets see if they get posted there
So, I have to leave my "LIFT THE RESIDENCY REQUIREMENT NOW" and "CITY WORKERS VOTE AGAINST DALEY" signs at home? Awww Damit!!!!! I'm still going to RALLY AGAINST THE MACHINE!
WEAR YOUR OLMYPIC CHALKIE SHIRTS!!!!
If you're going to be at work on 02 April 2009 and not going able to make it there at the City Hall, please do your part by NOT WRITING ANY TICKETS! Don't bring in anything at check off, answer your radio, write your report, and code your jobs. NO ACTIVITY!! One day of no activity will not hurt your bid spot or loose your car. Supervisor will undersatnd why we're doing it for ONE DAY...
UNION POLICE OFFICERS DESERVE BETTER PAY!! Just like N.Y.P.D.'s new contract. And lift the residency req.
"With the CPD, CFD and all other city agencies united, he has lost the battle."
What are you talking about? The other Unions have been locked into 5& 10 year contracts w/ major concessions.
The Cinderheads/Medics will throw you under the bus in a heartbeat. Don't EVER Forget that...
Neil steinburg should rot in he'll with
All the other alcoholic domestic batterers
I have NEVER,EVER seen people SO FOCUSED.Thurs is going to be a huge turnout.If you are on the fence and work 3rd watch and don't go you are a coward.People from 2nd watch DON'T NEED TO BE THERE,they have enough time but still will go.It's the people with under 10 yrs that we are marching for.
I had a medical procedure scheduled for april 2, but i have postponed it so that i can attend the march. I think it is extremely important to show our unity. Hope to see LOTS of us out there.
The LT's website posted this today.
The Chicago Police Lieutenants Association and the Chicago Police Captains Association, members of the Police Benevolent & Protective Association, and the bargaining unit for Lieutenants and Captains of the Chicago Police Department wish to offer their support to the Fraternal Order of Police Lodge 7 in its informational picketing scheduled for Thursday, April 2, 2009.
Chicago’s strength has long been its work force. The city of big shoulders would never have been built had it not been for its organized work force. The men and woman of all police ranks are part of that work force. We understand the frustrations which generate the need for this informational picketing. We appreciate the sincerity of the members of the F.O.P. We also share the common goal of better serving the people and making Chicago a safer place to raise your family.
We encourage all citizens of this great city to respect this exercise in free speech.
All I can say is Thanks Lt.s and Capt.s for supporting us. Lets make this protest HUGE.
Bring your wife/girlfriend/husband/boyfriend!
---------
I have to bring them all???
14 year old is welcomed to show up. he may really not want the job if he see's/hears what its really is all about.

Amen Bro..the f.o.p runs the other way when they see mugsy daley
No offense to the other districts, but 009 was the greatest place to work back in the day, I hope it is still. I was lucky to work with a bunch of legends, at least they are legends to me. Some are still with us and some have moved on to various earthly and non-earthly locations. Let's do ourselves proud. If you can, be there for the next generation and show our strength on Thursday-02 APR 09.
****Still is the best place in the city to work, filled with the best people in the department, but unfortunately run by the Single BIGGEST PIECE OF SHIT in the City bar none! Gene that means you!****
Hey SCC... The wife beating steinberg is at it again... Even makes a reference to you, but refers to you as "cheezedoffcop.com or whatever they call themselves"... Time for another civics lesson on how not to beat your wife in a drunken fit!!!
There were many escape clauses built into the ten year contracts that you may not know about.
The City or Union can re-open the contract at any time for an "emergency."
We've had several "emergencies" already due to budget shortfalls.
The agreements aren't as iron clad as they were in the past.
I work midnites and for the last two morning between 0600 and 0700, wbbm has had plugs for Shortshanks. Sunday. wbbm said we were greedy and today we were out to disrupt the Olympics. The plugs say we are doing an informational picket but they are still one sided with no FOP opinion voiced. I haven't heard the plugs during any other times, just during the drive time slot. I wonder if some money or favors are being cashed in by shortshanks?
No matter what unit you are from IAD to the gun teams city wide - Lets not forget :
WE ARE ALL BLUE AT HEART
Come on,Funny how the fop is doing one march,and away from the IOC,and away fron the hotel where they are.Maybe the FOP made a deal with the KING.Saw them with kool aid in thier office.Looks like cooter is right.Somthing is going on.somthing smells.and Im right if we are going to do it right lets march to the hotel.But i bet the FOP wont,sign Cooter
Please come sober and leave the booze at home. Shitshanks and the goofs are expecting us to act a fool. Lets be professional and make this work in our favor.
I'll Be There 100%.
Those that aren't working, not in court or can get a babysitter have NO excuse. If you don't show, then don't ever bitch about another single thing while you're still on the job.
OK...since you wouldn't post the entire thing...here is a condensed version of why, I feel, we are trying to provide information to the public and to draw some support.
The following are actual headlines. I have short blurbs but it seems too long to publish here. If you want them you will have to ask SCC to publish as I tried once already. It's pretty good because some of the blurbs name names and say how. It's amazing that so much exists. Dates all the way back to when the mayor started. Here we go...

I stand behind you guys! I’m not a CPD but, most of my family and friends are. I saw someone’s comment in regards to the TIFF money. If you want to really know, ask the Alderthief”s Ray Colon and Billy Ocasio, they are just waiting for the ESTIMILOUS MONEY to hit Richi’s account (The City) so they can go on the rampage and spend MILLIONS of dollars on LOW INCOME HOUSING PROJECTS for all the fucking FREE LOADERS and WELFARE WOLFS can seat in their ass, and live the RICH and FAMOUS LIFE on a new CONDO with all the amenities paid for, including free cable- snow removal - free landscaping. .While you and I go to, trying to make a decent living so these SCUMBAGS get to enjoy it!
I'm burning 8 hours, so I will be there.

If the only issue raised is the lack of a contract, we will loose public support. A lot of people are out of jobs, a lot of people are laid off, a lot of people are happy just to have a job with no raise. We need some other issues - Lack of manpower which puts the Public at risk, lack of equip, unqualified leadership, np confidence in the Supt. It can't be all about money
THIS GUY SAID IT BEST, AND IF I GET ON THE AIR, THIS IS WHAT I'LL REPEAT. THANKS FROM THE GUY WITH 11 YEARS.
I am the VIKING from 023, known by few,feared by many. I took 8hrs to march and I am not with FOP. Remember this march is like going on a job, there is STRENGTH IN NUMBERS. WE MUST SHOW UP IN FORCE.
The line has been drawn, do not back down the ball is in our court, stay sfe, I/F forever.

As you people are picketing, remember this, Cozzi is going to jail, we have a fed in charge, a civilian complaint board, 5 or more unfounded, not sustained, and exonerated c.r.'s since 2000 are on a list given to a scum-bag lawyer, our pension is being robbed blind by the Daley crime family and excused by the F.O.P., health insurance gone after 2013 and T.R.R.'s now used against you.
And you people are marching for?
An offer of a 16% pay raise over 5 years by Daley taken off the table.
This picket/march seems foolish when there's so much more at stake, the contract is going to arbitration anyways. Who cares what Daley feels or thinks about us, we already know. Carrying a sign on Thursday outside city hall won't matter, Daley won't be there, nor will the Olympic committee.
Ask yourself this, where was the F.O.P. and their march when Cozzi was being indicted by the Feds?

I was over at the academy tonight and the mobile strike force was working on crowd control and i think i overheard one of the exempt supervisors that was there say that "the use of unnecessary violence in the control of the crowd on thursday has been approved." So just a heads up to be careful on thursday. happy protesting!!
Ninety percent of life is just showing up.
Thursday, 11 AM, City Hall
TO THE LTS UNION: Thanks for standing with us on April 2nd.
As a P.O., I've always appreciated the boss who supported and respected the good cop. Among the best W.C.'s I ever worked for was Terry McCue. He was fair and supported his troops, but did what he had to do toward the pooches.
One day at roll call, after his ass was chewed out by the D.C. for not having enough parkers and movers he came in and said in a quiet voice, "If you see a mover, or parker and you think you should write it, then go ahead and write it. Otherwise," he then raised his voice to a yell, "Fuck the bosses! Fuck 35th & Michigan! You are policeman! We are not going to play their fucking games."
There are blue shirts who want to work and be the police and I for one feel it is easier to be the police when I know my WC is backing me.
Thanks for backing us. Afterall, we are in this together, because Shortshanks does not want to pay you anymore either.
"Just want to thank the boss i work for. He is treating this like a "st jude" situation and everyone that shows up to the rally doesn't have to do either the spring or fall insp..., their choice."
Maybe he is someone smart enough to realize that he and we are all eating from the same plate. Whatever the city gives us, he gets, plus.
I wonder if J-Fed will be there with us. If your not with us, your against us.
I'm a Lieutenant...I'm on days...and I'm Burning 8 to be there! Hopefully it will be warm enough to sport my Chalkie shirt. Everyone of us needs to call a brother or sister and get them out there. Midnights, child care whatever..there are no excuses. Plenty of time to sleep when your dead. Get a baby sitter. It Is What It Is...Be There!

if you're ambulatory medical, you're supposed to notify the District when you leave home for doctors visits, shopping and just about everything. that might preclude you from attending.
i might be wrong though

If you're ambulatory you can go. Stationary people have to call in. It's up to you if you want to be filmed walking a picket line while on the medical depending on what you're off for. For example, I wouldn't go if you're off for a sprained ankle unless you plan on bringing crutches and hobbling for the whole time.

Daley Puts Aldermen On Spot on Pay Raise
04/12/1995
DONT FORGET My personal favorite: Circa, ’95-’96 on the day the Bulls were in the NBA Championship, and the City was ready to RIOT, in the Sunday Sun-Times, there was an article “20 questions” this one was directed towards Mayor Daley. One person asked our beloved midget (NOT Verbatim) “How can you justify giving your Alderscum, City Council, and others in your office a 20% pay raise when you are giving your Police and Fire a 2.2% pay raise?”
The Mayors answer: “If they (Police and Fire) don’t like it, they can QUIT! I had 30,000 people take the Firemen’s test, so people want those jobs.”
I remember it well, about 3 hours after reading this article, my partner and I got rocks and beer bottles thrown at us somewhere on South Halsted. Thank God the Bulls suck!
ambulatory means just that you can attend if you are ambulatory you dont have to call district for shit, you can come and go as you please because you have kept the medical section up to date as to your condition. if someone from medical section can confirm please do, we need every body possiable. of course we dont want you if you are in stiches or anything your health comes first

--you can leave the house while on ambulatory.
It's when you are stationary that you have to call every time you leave the house.
This is not a picket against the Olympics. It is to get Daley's attention. It just coincides with the Olympic Committee visit.
Don't spread the message that we are against the Olypics. Let Daley take the heat for his incompetent management and not put up any good faith money.
I know this is short notice, but what about our FOP brothers in the burbs. There's several lodges around Chicago. Anyone think of sending an invite to them? Their lodges usually follow our decisions pretty close. So it's in teir best interest to help. Just a thought.
A couple of disabled officers in wheel chairs are trying to attend. Who will give them a hard time? NO ONE!!! If I didn't have a Volkswagen, I would put them in my car..

Ambulatory means you can go out without notifying the district. Stationary means you have to notify whenever you leave your home. Call FOP at 312-733-7776, for confirmation.
People should wear shirts saying:
"lift residency for city employess".
"you're police deserve better pay"
"hire more cops" we're already 2,000 short and will be an anticipated 900 more short by the end of 2009"
"enough of the fualty and outdated equipment"
everybody gets a decent raise in the city but the police. out of all the city jobs, who lays their lives on the line each and everyday, remind me - i forgot - THE POLICE !!!!!!!!!
etc etc etc.
Chicago does not want the Olympics. Only Daley does cause he wants to end his career with a bang. Knowing full well the Olympics will leave this city in ruins with crime and debt, we're talking 3/4 of a billion in debt if not more.
FOP, take an informal poll with all the members that show up for the march. Ask them if they want the olympics here or not. I'll lay my paycheck on the answer will be NO, more than 95%.
Mc Cue? The same mcCue who worked the Southside only for a while in the late 60's when the 008 District was a retirement home, then ran North and got Clouted in? ? Yeah, right..
There is no Picketing Rule or Laws against bringing your own signs, [I'm bringing my own], but please keep it tasteful and to the point. It would be stupid [FOP] for all the signs handed out by FLOP to say basically the same thing anyway, but they, FLOP, being Shakey as Hell, probably wish they could have just some watered down, POLICE DESERVE A FAIR CONTRACT signs, everywhere. Sorry Charlie, ain't happenin, I'm callin attention to SHORTSHANKS and his blatent discrimination to CPD as far as raises go to us, and to his pets, the ALDER-GOOFS and the TEACHERS. [you know, the ones who give us the dumbest public school kids in the USA, year after year,thanks to their great teaching abilities.]
SCC why don't you use your head and remove the 5:49am, juvenile comment, we DON"T NEED this stuff. Many have commented about using restraint, courtesy, acting profession, which can't be stressed enough, and you don't post that. Remember, some of our officers really ARE quite Juvenile.
I don't want to hear ANYONE whining about the possibility of rain Thursday. If you never got wet on this job, you're either the biggest dog or a liar about being a copper.

The 5:49 AM comment is referring to the outrageous story about an exempt authorizing force in the 11:12 PM comment the previous day.

PLEASE COME!! we will welcome you. I have a friend who is ISP and says a lot of state police are coming. United BLUE!!!
Mc Cue? May he rest in Peace. However he only took care of his pets. The current 2nd watch capt continues to take care of them. "randy" huffs and puffs and makes his "time due" decisions on productivity but yet, lets McCue’s people do nothing under his nose. Give it a rest Mc Cue was among the best, but unless you were part of his inner circle, forget it. The mark of a true leader is someone who treats you fairly regardless of his feelings towards you personally. How many people did McCue “banish” from his office because they failed in doing HIM (or his family) a personal favor?
once you are ambulatory you can leave the house with out caLLING CAN EVEN GO ON VACTION AS LONG AS YOUR BACK FOR YOUR NEXT MEDICAL SECTION APPIONTMENT

Not accurate. If you are on medical leave, you cannot leave town without writing a to/from. Been there.
This informational gathering is probably the most important action any of US can do to secure a decent salary compensation for OUR future, whether you are a blue shirt or white shirt of various rank. WE MUST SHOW UP IN FORCE, UNITED, AND UNMOVABLE with our reasonable demands for an adequate wage and compensation for what we are called upon to do by virtue of our oath of office. WE ARE ABOVE THE POLITICIANS, WE ARE PROFESSIONALS, WE KEEP THE SAVAGES AT THE GATE!!!!!
ON Thursday 02April2009 come down with your fellow officers, family, lovedones and demand that CHICAGO POLICE OFFICERS BE TREATED LIKE 1ST CLASS CITIZENS!!!
I came on the job as a police officer and I will leave as a police officer.
Sgt. Lou Danielson #1406
023 District
Anyone that doesn't show up better have a damn good reason.
Attention cowards: This is the time to stand up and make some fucking noise.

Work the desk? that would mean some suckhole loses their coveted desk spot for the day. they would probably go crying to the boss.
This just in Troops ... a VERY reliable source has informed me that ALL of the CTA parking lots are going to be checked after 0800hrs for ALL cars - i.e. City stickers, plate registrations, tinted windows, license plate covers, etc. If you car has any of these - leave it at home. Don't give anyone reason to make any $$ for that greasy-haired mumbling motherfucker - let's have a GREAT PROFESSIONAL rally!

Here is my fear -
Does anyone recall when Lec Walensa(sp) visited Chicago in 1988, we picketed the Conrad Hilton in the park directly across the street.
What did Daley do? He brought the heroic union organizer from Poland through the back alley and into the back door. Never even saw us. Dont think for one second that isn't what da mare will do this time, also.
But I'll be there!
