Congratulations New Hires
We don't know where you came from, but your presence is appreciated:
- [Daley] added, "People in stress positions, many of 'em take alcohol and many take drugs. . . . Especially today [with] a whole new generation. We think it was alcohol, but many times they do take drugs. That's what happens to people. . . . It's uncalled for. But remember — we have 14,000 police officers. He's just one of the [14,000].''
And evidently, people in political positions take drugs, alcohol and numerous blows to the head.
14,000? Shortshanks' tenuous grasp on reality continues to fade.

, Please post this for all to see…
During the 1st Watch on 25 MAY, an off duty P.O. from the 008th District was involved in a traffic accident in which a child ran out in front of his vehicle. Luckily, the off duty officer reacted in time and only knocked the child to the ground resulting in minor scrapes. As the off duty officer exited his vehicle to check on the child, several family members ran out from their backyard party and approached the off duty officer in a threatening manner, causing him to identify himself as a police officer before locking himself in his vehicle until 008th District officers arrived. After more than an hour later, one of the family members of the child made an allegation at the hospital that the officer must be drunk, resulting in the off duty officer being ordered into 008 to submit to an administrative blow, as the newly revised order reads. An IAD supervisor arrived in 008 and advised the W/C that field sobriety tests must be performed as well as the complete warning to motorist DUI packet. After the off duty officer called FOP, IAD changed their mind and wanted only an administrative blow. The acting street deputy, Cmdr. Carter, made several calls on his blackberry before finally overriding IAD and ordering an ET to administer FST’s to the off duty officer, now more than five hours after the traffic crash. The off duty officer passed the FST’s without problem but then was led directly into the processing room and ordered to blow. The off duty officer complied and blew a .000 on the breathalyzer machine.

Thats great for the officer because now his rights have been violated. Was he arrested for suspicion of DUI? NO, so why did he have to submit to a criminal investigation? I would immediately get a CR# on that idiot Commander Carter who is so stupid he doesn't understand you are required to have certain elements before you can administer a criminal BAC test, if not we could be giving warning to motorists to every citizen we encounter.
The officer's rights we violated and he should file suit against the City, get some settlement money, and set a strong precedent for all these goof ball, EXEMPT, merit hacks that we are citizens and we have Constitutional rights just like every other citizen. We can't be ordered to submit to criminal breath tests without following State law concerning driving under the influence.
If anybody orders you to blow in from the CPD command staff criminally or ADMINISTRATIVELY, please do yourself a favor and REFUSE!!! The Administrative test can now be and will be used against you in your criminal trial and you will be convicted and lose your license, possibly go to jail and lose your job anyway. If you refuse the blow then you might get fired but at least you have a fighting chance of beating the DUI and maybe getting your job back.
DON'T forfeit your right against self-incrimination in a criminal trial just to keep your job, its only a job!!
5/26/2009 09:34:00 AM
THE FLOP might now come out with a directive ordering their membership to refuse to self incriminate themselves but please do yourself a favor and refuse to blow, EVER. THis job is not worth a criminal conviction...
Ace Reporter Phil Schitz here. 14,000 police officers? Since when? Where are they? This Ace Reporter doesn't see them while covering the crime beat; only one man cars.
Daley is delusional. Will someone please give the mayor his meds?
Hey dicky I am 1 out of 9 thousand that don't do drugs...fuck u, your 50 useless thieves and your fucking olympics. U aunts foolin anybody anymore.
14,000???? NO TRY 8000 +, and just under 9000. Why doesnt the Media touch this? It sad that it appears we have more white shirts on this job than cops who wear blue shirts on the street.
Lest we forget the numerous times a young Patrick Daley was given special treatment after fighting, stealing and damaging property in the Gold Coast on separate occasions of course. Not to mention a blood alcohol three times the legal limit. What stressful position did he ever hold?
Of course he should say what he said. Who among us has not experienced the heartbreak of what alcohol can do to a close friend, family member or sometimes ourselves? He's still a crooked prick. Why doesn't he go to fucking speech school or something?
>>Witnesses reported seeing the 17-year veteran officer at a bar in the vicinity of 55th and Indiana before his car struck...<<
only an idiot copper would go out to a bar and drink then drive in this day and age
If we have 14,000 as Ritchie says then why is Dugan trying to scrape up every body he can at the district level?
Hell if we really had 14,000 they'd create a few more units and bleed patrol some more.
Someone, maybe FOP?, needs to disclose the real numbers. The public needs to know that Ritchie and JFed are flat out lying and trying to blow smoke up the public's ass!
Well, I don't use drugs and I have a drink about twice a month. Can I sue the mayor for slander?
He said you can lump in 'anyone in uniform'. How insulting.
Our numbers grow with each day the Mayor is in office, silly, just silly!
Stuttering irish prick looks like a heavy hitter himself!
When you read his quote out loud you sound like a nut ball.
Yeah, congratulations on being among the last classes of CPD to have a real pension to look forward to.
One thing many people missed from the last FOP General meeting was Donahue hinting strongly that future hires NOT having the pension as we now have it.
He worded it very carefully and so far no one has mentioned it on this blog. He said no current officer need worry about their pension, that our rights were guaranteed. He said the City is moving towards a two tiered pension system.
That means to me to look for new hires to NOT be part of our pension system. That is the likely outcome of any new contract. We should guarantee pension rights somehow for future police officers, otherwise you can kiss this job goodbye, without new officers contributing into the system we will eventually have no one contributing into the pension fund.
Oh, and I suppose now you're going to say the mayor is a liar?
Lying is not an honorable trait.
The Mayor is referred to as the Honorable Richard M. Daley.
If he was a liar, would he be the Honorable Richard M. Daley? I think not !
My work is done here !
To watch the clock for 8 hours at work I have to use drugs...I only use alcohol when I drive...
A LOT OF MAYORS AND POLITICANS USE ALCOHOL AND THEM DRUGS. YOU KNOW THE STRESS OF THEIR JOBS, JUGGLING THE NUMEROUS SEX PARTNERS,WHERE TO HIDE THE MONEY, WHO TO SCREW OVER NEXT,CONTRACTS FOR FRIENDS, FUNDRAISING, COUNTING THEIR BANK ACCOUNTS, WATCHING THEIR INVESTMENTS GROW, RELAXING AT THEIR SUMMERHOMES, GOLFING, AND THE LIST KEEPS GOING.
Da Mare is out of his mind!
There's 16000 if there's 5.
Everytime I listen to the knews the number of police officers rises over night. Where are these14,000 street cops?
I don't usually give a shit about the argument over how many we have. But Daley really needs to just shut the fuck up already. This jag off is really fucking out there.
It's all OK folks, we have twenty thousand cops keeping you safe and even more cameras. It's all OK folks. Our top cop is the best and worth the money. It's all OK folks. Just keep paying me for the privilege of living in Chicago. SHUT THE FUCK UP WITH YOUR BULLSHIT LIES ALREADY!
THE FEW, THE PROUD, THE C.P.D.
Will some reporter please call Human Resources, the Pension Board and get the number of sworn officers on the job! There is a scandal here.
File a Freedom of Information Request if necessary.
The number is probably so low that it more than a matter of public and officer safety, it is FRAUD. The taxpayers are PAYING for the services of 13,500-14,000 sworn officers but are only getting how many!
And it is not as if Shortshanks is lavishing the rest of us with pay raises and benefits with the leftover money.
fuck the mayor and ed burke
why - after the guy from 019th dist. - does any cop blow at all?
Why did this guy blow?
THe administrative blow can now be used criminally, no matter what IAD tells you. Am I wrong?
And while we're on the subject of lying, theiving politicians; NBC thinks it's "CELEBRITY" when you are half of the criminal conspiracy to raid the coffers of the state of Illinois. Patti Blago is going to a star on NBC's new show "I'm a celebrity-get me out of here" in the new summer line-up of primetime TV. Fuck you NBC. I just blocked your channel but I'll go out my way NOT TO SPEND A DIME with any of your advertisers. I just hope I don't have to cxl my homeowners or car insurance or cancel the vehicle I just ordered because they advertise on your station. NBC news can fuck off too.
That was a classic King Rich
hey mo... i looked up your arrest stats from 1985 to the present day today... i guess i will keep those a secret too.. before you go spouting off about how you were the police and tell 10th district war stories dont forget we can always find out the truth.. the numbers speak for themselves mo... not so good, and the numbers dont match up with the "high and mighty" story you just told the world... pathetic... signed, the anonymous officer who knew the real "mo hayes" in 010...when i was doin the teachin... you should have listened better
5/27/2009 12:35:00 AM
Listen junior. There were no computerized stats back in the 80s or 90s. And if you haven't figured it out yet no officer's stats (whether it be arrests, awards, etc) are accurate. The whole system is crap in, crap out.
Furthermore, if you are in the D unit, dics let the tact team take the pinch and the dics process and prove the case to the ASA. Or if you're in a specialized unit, you work investigations that go for months or years. Some of those investigations could be federal, and those stats aren't in our databases.
I could keep going, but the point is knock it off with how many arrests or awards someone has. It doesn't measure the quality of an officer. You'll realize that some day when you grow up.
I know the majority of the comments are focused on the grossly exaggerated numbers of CPD, but...
"Witnesses reported seeing the 17-year veteran officer at a bar in the vicinity of 55th and Indiana before his car struck Trenton Booker at the intersection of 81st and Ashland around 1:30 a.m. Friday."
What the hell is a 13 year old boy doing out at 1:30 in the morning anyways?
I know the answer to that, but christ!
Guys please do yourselves a favor. Drink at home! if not, call a cab, sober friend, anyone else and get yourself a sober ride home.
is this man a bonified mental?????????

Wouldn't you want to drink if Richie was your dad? You'd have to escape somehow
AUDIT THE CITY'S BOOKS!
I hope that the national and foreign press will realize that Obama is a product of the Daley-Stroger-Blago Crime Family.
By next election day I hope that the nation will come to it's senses and the damage of Pelosi-Frank-Reid-Clinton-Kennedy-Durkin-Obama liberal give-it-all-away insanity can start to be undone.
Be safe, and vote!
Smoke 'em if you got 'em!
Why dosn't the MEDIA look into these numbers they give out. 14,000 are they nuts! More like 9,000 if that....
I’m sure that was for those great reporters we have, to assist them in telling all those claiming that we are short in officers on the street that they are wrong...
The Great Oz has spoken!
I'm sure by about mid July when Chalkie is busy strolling around he'll have another great quote...
"it's those damn guns doing it"
off-topic chicagodailynewsphotos.com enter carts&wagons as the subject and the #11 photo looks like a coppers funeral from the turn of the century.
Daley probably includes the TMA's and the Dept of Revenue ticket writers as part of the polic department count.
75 TOLEDO COPS CUT DUE TO BUDGET!!! ITS COMING HERE BOYS AND GIRLS! TIME TO GET RIDE OF THE 50 PART TIME ALDERMAN-WE NEED A RALLY! NOW IS THE TIME TO MAKE OUR CASE TO THE CITIZENS!

And every time, Shortshanks nose grows longer as well, just like his clone, the wood between the ears, stupid and height-challenged marionette, Pinocchio. They are both little f*cking liars.
You could smell the gin coming off Mayor Daley, as he quietly prayed, during mass at Old St. Pat's. Freaking drunk and goof.
Looks like daley and the fop have been drinking the same koolaid.8200. Police.what the hell is going on.if 50 coppers are going out every month then u hire 100 a year,then what's the total
chicagocop.com also seems to think that there are 13000+ on the job..Who the f@#$ is in charge over there?

Shortshanks & Company does not need to publicly announce layoffs in the CPD. Every month there are anywhere from 40-60 LAYOFFS BY ATTRITION, and mostly senior, experienced high on the payscale officers. Just don't hire anyone and pull cops out of the districts into more and more phony strike forces that fly around while our neighborhoods go unprotected for the high taxes we pay.
LAYOFFS BY ATTRITION, no muss no fuss just let them walk off into the sunset.
I think Daley packs a half-Dog of Wild Irish Rose in his attache case. I believe he's a closet nipper. He's far to goofy to talk like he does stone sober, he must be on the sauce, or perhaps he's smoking his underwear..
"Daley is delusional. Will someone please give the mayor his meds?
5/27/2009 12:18:00 AM"
No.
Will someone please take all of his meds away?
Let the good citizens see just what they've reelected.
"...or perhaps he's smoking his underwear..
5/27/2009 07:56:00 PM"
Wouldn't that be considered a combo biological/chemical act of terrorism?
No way he's a drinker. He'd be happier and might even be able to complete a full sentence in proper syntax.

You are correct. It is that way in many other states. Illinois is just slow in catching up. In many European contries your first DUI is also your last. You lose driving riveleges forever, no appeal. do it again and you are going to prison for a long long time. It ought to be that way here. That might cut down on some of the carnage on the roads and city streets.
At any rate, Illinois State law now provides for an involuntary blood/urine draw in a case of an auto crash with serious injury or death. You do not have the option of refusing, it is in the law. If the officer knows DUI procedures you can be taken with your permission or without, to a hospital and strapped down and your blood and/or urine can be collected.
So forget the administrative blow. Anyone can be legally forced to give blood or urine if serious injury or death results from a crash.
Best thing is do not get behind a wheel. It isn't illegal to walk drunk or to take a cab drunk or to take a bus or get a ride while drunk. And no one gets killed. And no one goes to prison or makes headlines or gets fired. How damn difficult is that to understand?
Citizens and police officers do not have a God given right to get totally obliterated on booze and then go driving around! Why do people continue to look to skirt around this simple fact?
Do not drive while drunk! Very simple.

No need to cal anyone or file a FOA. The number, as of 12/31/2008,is in the Pension Board Annual Report, due out in about a month. As of 12/31/207, it was 13748 or so.
Daley didn't get the memeo that 4000 of the 14000 are retired.
Why not just promotecaptians more and commanders? That's what Weis is good at. Heavens knows, those positions must be filled; afterall, it's in the budget. By the ay, all these gold stars need a company car, too!
