CPD Goes "Global"
The city of Chicago will flood the streets with police officers this summer to keep crime from surging as it usually does when the weather gets warmer, Mayor Daley said today.
In part, the police department will do that by moving as many as 500 officers out from behind desks, Daley said.
- The Police Department’s Global Strike Force will be expanded by 50 officers and supervisors, Daley said, and a new strike team will be created, comprised of personnel from gang intelligence and gang enforcement units, as well as neighborhood districts, to conduct surveillance in potentially violent areas.
So another 50 are leaving the Districts? The main thing that keeps quiet neighborhoods quiet is being stripped to "conduct surveillance in potentially violent areas"? And how the hell is this a "flood" of officers? What is happening is that the Department is finally acknowledging what the blog has been saying for two years - that we're shorthanded. Badly. And 45 recruits in a few weeks isn't going to do shit when we're having 50 retirements a month.
Better tell the citizens in the decent neighborhoods to stock up on arms and ammo. And stop voting for an idiot who is leaving you high and dry.

The City keeps feeding these media creatures these bullshit numbers .... we are down 1,000 officers in patrol.
Boots on the Ground is the only way to suppress crime and violence.
When will the "doing more with less" nonsense stop!
Just a heads up for everyone. We executed a search warrant on a GD in the 006 district and recovered a bulletproof vest with black vest cover. The name was on the inside and we tracked it down to a retired policeman who we got hold of. He said he donated it to Nate's shop to send to Iraq. Pass this on to those who you see fit as I know Nate's is on the south side and most everyone receiving this email are north siders.
Look out criminals, shitbirds, dirtbags, etc....... the house mouses that have hidden behind desks their whole careers are coming to GET YOU!!!!!!
Smoke and mirrors...
It is scary when you know how the department thinks. This was my comment when they announced the cuts on the desk crew:

Maybe the command staff is getting ready to announce a new TRU unit. You need the bodies on the street to be able to strip away more manpower for BS units.

The command staff thinks you will forget what they did a week ago.
Chicago PD needs to start Hiring laterals from other departments. If they want to save on training, they are already PARTIALLY trained but state certified.
Shortshanks keeps pulling all these Officers out of his ass, maybe he can dig a little deeper & find the $$$ to really hire more officers & give us our raise.
He says we're in dire financial straits and can't offer much . But He Sure Could Take Care of Himself and The Aldercreatures with raises !!!!!
Idiot Shortshanks will not allow guns in the Republic of Chicago and the 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals seems to agree with him. Apparently cities and municipalities are not bound by decisions of the United States Supreme Court to wit:
“Reporting from Washington -- The 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on Tuesday upheld strict gun-control ordinances in Chicago and suburban Oak Park, Ill., setting the stage for a Supreme Court battle over whether the 2nd Amendment and its protection for gun owners extends to state and municipal laws.”
However, there is hope,
“Until the middle of the 20th century, most parts of the Bill of Rights applied only to the federal government, not to states or localities. In a step-by-step process, however, the high court decided that most of the rights in the Bill of Rights were fundamental to liberty and, therefore, limit the action of states and municipalities.”

Protect your rights; join the NRA and/or the ISRA before it’s too late!
AAAWWWWW, Come on SCC, Its units like TRU, Mobile Gang Unit and "Global" Strike Force that are changing the face of Modern Policing! Putting “Cops on the Dots”, as someone said years ago. Hell, we ALL know the D.O.C. can predict where the next crime will occur, and have units there beforehand! So, in the future, SCC, and its readers, can you please stop bashing units such at the above mentioned units. Because we all know the crime stats are… hold on, what’s this?, what the fuck?
UP?!!??!? But it’s not supposed to work like that!
Fuck these useless Units! Put some asses back in Beat Cars! And more importantly LET US BE THE REAL POLICE AGAIN!
In part, the police department will do that by moving as many as 500 officers out from behind desks, Daley said.
500? Where? I'm callin' BULLSHIT on this one! 50 I can believe, but 500? Aint no way, Joe, aint no way!
Expect retirements to jump like a grasshopper. Three different friends that are still working called to tell me about the shooting and inform me of their sooner-than-later retirements.
all night long on zone 1 you hear dispatcher looking for cars they don't have to send on assignments. zone 1 is sleepy hollow compared to faster zones--- then you hear coppers sucking it up and riding 99 on two man calls--- when will they stop all these fucked up stupid missions.
The 500 number is the Back2Streets deployment. Each PO selects a week to work the streets.
It's NOT 500 PO's each and every week of the summer!
The 47 recruits in the academy WILL NOT be assigned to the districts until September?
I use a question mark because they keep pulling these kids out of the Academy for BS details (handing out brochures for the Shamrock shuffle, stuffing bags for the run to remember, etc) which prolongs their training. At this rate it is doubtful if they will be qualified to take the state exam when scheduled. As it is, they have only taken three written exams in the past 11 weeks!
hire less cops
put the manpower you have in the ghetto
leave the taxpaying districts to wait up to 1/2 hour for a cop to show up
tremendous idea Jody ... tremendous
you are fooling no one
WC on first watch in 011 told us that everynight 2-3 cars will be down on a TRP/sound aplification mission.....no matter what,rap or no rap,cars down or no cars down. And a sgt. Will also be down on the mission.yea this will really help.....way to fuck over the watch.
Well, the 4500 units are out there. Telling people we are there for "Police Presence". This is a waste of my tax dollars. Why am I expected to do police work and they can sit on their butts and not even get out of the car? But we are getting the same pay????
The best part is J-Fed calling out Daley
"Mayor Daley's 2009 budget counted on saving $10 million by slowing police hiring to a crawl -- with only 200 officers hired all year.
But, Police Supt. Jody Weis acknowledged Tuesday that there has been only one class of 45 officers in the police academy this year and no other classes have been scheduled.
Is he going to get spanked? At least someone is telling the truth.
How short will you be by the end of the year?
I don't care where they come from. We'll need them. Snoop Dogg is rapping at Lollapalooza in the beginning of August. This city is going up that night.
Prayers for bros in 007 and 022.
Global? Can't we just keep them in the city?
HAAAAA HAAAAAAAAA!
You, J-Fart, have GOT to be shitting us!
Global mutha-fuckin' Strike Farce???
ARE YOU SERIOUS?
More people stripped from Patrol?
So WTF? Is the entire 8500 member Chicago Police Department going to be a strike farce?
Whither goes the Patrol Division? You know, the one's doing the lifting?
Divide and conquer? The new age Police don't want to/unwilling to put in their 10 to 15 years on 1st and/or 3rd watch? Unencumbered by chasing the radio and willing to put oneself in a position to have certain contractual rights subverted if not trampled? (we do hope that is NOT what the powers that be are banking on)
Dear Citizens (the upright, more than fair share tax paying & seeing no return) of Chicago...
The day is come which we have predicted for so long. Some of you will be in DIRE need of the Police and there will be NO police whatsoever to send you.
If you value yourselves, your family & friends, your property & belongings you've worked so hard for then you very well better take common sense measures to protect them because the mayor and superintendent have been sending you a big F/U by shrinking the department.
This is because of the mayor playing politics with YOUR safety because he has a long standing, intractable hatred of CPD from childhood.
Chicago will burn this summer. Daley WILL NOT man up and do what is right. Weis IS a carpetbagger and a soul-less creature who has no reflection & casts no shadow...
We're amazed that any human being in the land of the living or departed could ever on GOD's green earth claim him as a son or a husband or a friend. The same indictment holds true for the mayor.
These two beings are as much enemies of the Chicago Police Department as the savages on the street.
The REAL citizens of this once great city should be aghast at what Daley is doing. The theft and deception is of such a magnitude that our grandchildren will probably not live to see it unraveled to it's least common denominator.
In other times, dictators faced the justice of the people when the law was unresponsive in giving redress to their violation and outrage...
WHAT THE FUCK THE EXACT WRONG MOVE...
Answer your calls, back each other up and be safe thats is all that is REQUIRED of us all !
Is this like Team America?
Global Strike Force, Fuck Yeah!
Where's the media, there so fast to burn a story of a copper over and over till the average person has it memorized....
But here you have a mayor, that flat out lies about numbers and programs that have failed in the planning stage but tells you there going to make a difference, but media just repeats it like a frigin parrot, do a little checking and then followup by going to the districts and seeing for yourself, then just listen up to your radios... Now you can do a story on the shell game with the mayor at the wheel.
I go this ugly guy feeling that the shit is just starting to hit the fan and with numbers the way they are now...!

Recruits will be used for taste of Chicago and to supplement at all nieghborhood fests. The current class of recruits are lucky to graduate by October. Marathons, dog searches, art projects and directing traffic have priority. Next class might be in October. 46 recruits for the entire year.
if you are fifty years old and have 20 years on the job you can retired now take the money and run i did and in five years you will have about 200,000 gran from the city and then you can say i fucked daley like i say everday
Just a heads up for everyone. We executed a search warrant on a GD in the 006 district and recovered a bulletproof vest with black vest cover. The name was on the inside and we tracked it down to a retired policeman who we got hold of. He said he donated it to Nate's shop to send to Iraq. Pass this on to those who you see fit as I know Nate's is on the south side and most everyone receiving this email are north siders
i heard the owners son is a hype, probably sold that shit for dope. drive up north to JG in 016
With all these "SPECIAL" newly created units going onto those districts who will be watching the other neighborhoods. There is no-one left here and they cry for more!
I pay my taxes and demand equal rights to my share of POLICE protection.
Where are all our TAX dollars going Daley?
My neighbor's house was broken into and the Police took the report over the phone and a ET came later, Daley you are a JOKE.
Thats right more planters, family contracts and insider privitazation of city assests you can not be TRUSTED DALEY!

Got news for you. Been burbs cop and CPD. The CPD is the one that's PARTIALLY trained. Burbs are better trained, equipped and generally more well rounded because of the wide variety of tasks they're required to perform.
Thank god the lawful citizens in this city can arm themselves to protect themselves eh?
500? Where? I'm callin' BULLSHIT on this one! 50 I can believe, but 500? Aint no way, Joe, aint no way!
===================================
You mean like they did a few, short weeks ago when they cut 1 P.O. from the desk and "did away" with the position of Watch Secretary?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
I don't know about the other districts but in 024 the front office is STILL crammed with the same inside DOLLIES that were there BEFORE the order came out.
Nothing has changed from that order and NOTHING will change from this one, except more P.O.'s will be pulled from the already understaffed districts.

This incident needs to be thoroughly investigated by IAD and the Inspector Division. Here is something truly worthwhile that that these two divisions can look into that could possibly save a life.

Watch how quickly he replaces Aldercreatures as they get sent to Prison !
They must really be important. $6,000,000.00 a year to make fois gras illegal ???
I'm suprised Daley hasn't come up with a plan to cut aldercreatures.
Hey maybe Mayor short-shit, will privatize the security of the streets to the same people who got the parking meters.
Response to posting at 3:55am
It must be city wide
See below
Each watch will conduct daily Sound Amplification missions within the Area-2 Violence Zone 75-83 Stony Island to the Lake front. For a minimum of two hours each watch will designate enforcement activities toward conducting Sound Amplification missions and traffic enforcement within the above stated boundaries as well as at designated hot spot locations. Watch commanders are also to direct enforcement activities at recent locations of aggravated batteries and homicides. Copies of All activity will be submitted to the front office for collection and tracking. This will remain in effect until further notice from the undersigned.
Commander Southside District
GLOBAL Strike Force??? You think Jfed will let the Kessing Bandit strike a Turkish bathhouse in Turkey as part of this global mission??
snoops concert won't be so bad. They're all wasted on weed. Fine by me. Just keep your mouth shut and stay in your seats.
We can easily have 30 thousand coppers on the job. Just assign everyone to a district then detail them to a unit then detail them back to another district. Then detail about half the CPD back to units. Each spot is counted as a separate body. Presto chango, cloud of smoke, thirty thousand paper police. Ain't creative accounting wonderful in Bizarro Daleyland?
By calling it global, does that mean that when we gotthe brat stop for dinner big bird will leave us alone
Global? I'll take Cancun.
The Global Strike Force is the newest Unit in the CPD. It is a unit comprised of 500 men and women hand pick by Supt. Weissel and Mayor Dick Daley. They will rarely if ever be seen , you will only hear rumors of their amazing deeds. This unit will go from country to country combating future felons whose dreams are to go to chicago to commit crimes. Many will bad mouth this unit, all will envy them, yet like a ninja they will never be seen or heard from
I guess you all are now part of the UN police force or somethin....
They can say they are moving them out from behind desks, but unless they get off their asses and out of the car and write paper then it's just a waste of gas. They told us they are their for "police presence" only. What a joke.
thank god i got a shotgun at home you guys can't be everywhere.sorry for your loss,a concerned citizen
NONSENSE,NONSENSE.This purported "unit" will be nothing more than COWARDS who will sit in a police car on a corner.They will have their windows rolled up,doors locked,and will not be obligated to answer ANY CALLS,even if it is right in front of them.I pray the news media follows the daily routine of these clout babies and shows how useless they are.
STill more at call-back that can get back out there and work. Keep sending them back out !
And cant the investigators/sergeants that conducted the fucked up investigations be disciplined for inattention to duty, or how about just ignorance!

How about taking the desk jockeys and sending them to, 3-5-7-11-15-25, and put them on beat cars, not this BS of parking them at some dope corner. The only thing being parked at the dope corner did was move the store down the street.
"The Police Department’s Global Strike Force"????
--------------------------------
SCC, I finally figured out what's going on at 35th Street. Somebody with a wicked sense of humor is assigned to a position which gives them access to the exempts. This guy is whispering into each exempts ear and saying stuff like: "We should form a "Strike Team"! Of course the exempts don't realize this name came from "The Shield"; a show about corrupt police officers.
Now the police department formed up a "Global Strike Force". Now I know why McNulty and McCotter left; they couldn't stop laughing!
Now that our J-Fed led department reached a new level of comedy, may I make a suggestion to whom ever is comming up with these names?
I suggest:
THE KEESING BANDIT STRIKE FORCE! (Complete with exclamation point)
"'We have to work within our financial means. The city is going through tough times right now,' Weis said, during a joint news conference with Daley at Davis Square Park, 4430 S. Marshfield."
The city has been pissing away money like a drunken sailor on hundreds of miles of useless fencing and hundreds of miles of useless grooves down the middle of alleys, stupid banners on unnecessary light poles, air-bouncy things for block parties, "bird rescue," rabbit ambulances, free backpacks and lunches [which get thrown into the trash] for kids in affluent neighborhoods, and a thousand other frivolities.
What did you expect?
"Anonymous said...

Actually, this city may go up earlier than Snoop-Doggy. All I got to say is: This summer, I'm out of the city!
Remind them to buy their guns & ammo in Will County to save the tax dollars.
Is it possible that a POS brought back or sold that vest from Iraq? I know they were meant for Chicago-area troops.
what a nonsurprise to hear that post about that company guy watch commander on first watch in 011. the only reason to have these bs missions is to write tickets, impound cars(which in and of itself is a good thing), and generate revenue for this shitbag city. i want to see how 011 can down two or three cars on midnites for a bs mission when they rarely ever have all the beat cars up and running to begin with. it's been a long time since 011 mid's has had enough manpower to even think about putting up incident cars. there are nights when 3 or 4 beat cars are down and there are still a couple 99 cars out there. thanks for keeping officer safety in mind you tool. and you wonder why so many people left 1st watch during the last watch bid? actually you probably didn't wonder about it because you just don't get it. oh yeah that's right, i'm sure you will use 011 on your ass-kissing resume to make gold star...even though you never were nor never will be the real police.
Wait until the "STIMULUS" money for the city gets freed up.
The department is going to have an overtime initiative where officers can work days off in their own or other districts.
This will be in place to avoid hiring bodies and paying for their benefits and the number of coppers doing this will make up for any man power shortage.
The extra money earned will count as their raise so there is no need for a new contract. It's Federal money. The city can't lose!!!
The sad part about this is that it is true and their are coppers that will sign up for this in a minute!
Can't you just see the little shithead mayor laughing out loud, saying that he won and the asshole coppers will do anything he makes them do. they are not united and don't give a shit for the others.
He would be right.
"The Police Department’s Global Strike Force will be expanded by 50 officers and supervisors, Daley said, and a new strike team will be created..."
It's enough to make you cry.
Sounds like a stupid TV show.
If I vacuum the whole house, and not just one room, can my actions be described as "global?"
We're losing the English language, but that doesn't matter if something sounds cool to 9-year-olds -- like the ones running this city.
Help! Someone call the rabbit ambulance...
Where was O'Bama during the Peace Officers Memorial in D.C.?
AUDIT THESE NUMBERS!
Are oficers on Duty Disability counted?
Are officers who are from Districts, DETAILED to Units Counted TWICE? The A&As in our District still have guys on it who haven't been around in years.
Do they delay pulling names of officers off the job, retired, deceased, fired from the count?
Could we even have Ghost Payrollers, Police Officers who are doing non-police jobs in other city departments, or even "non-government" jobs.
Creative Accounting, it's the Chicago Way.
We can't have enough Police Officers, good equipment or even good street.
But mayor Greenthumb has seen to it that we have PALM TREES ON OAK STREET BEACH!
That was more important to Shortshanks.
we are down 1,000 officers in patrol.
------------------------
You are so wrong. I will give you the benefit and say it was a typo. Your finger slipped on the keyboard when you tried to type 4,000
All the shitheads, gang bangers, petty criminals and gangs that can't make it in their old turn are slowly moving into the safe districts.
Just look at 016 (Belmont to Irving Park Road and Cicero to Narragansett). It's a nice case book study. The gangs, shitheads, etc... that couldn't make it in 025 and 015 moved into the 016th district.
We are short of officers and by depriving the safe districts of officers, it just invites trouble into nice parts of the city.

Just make the 016 dist. tact team take some of the back log jobs. Oh I forgot they are too busy locking up a drunk at bel/cicero. Any big arrest in 016 comes from a beat car or an outside unit. Tact team always was and always will be in 016 a big joke.

You are so right. Have you driven down Western Blvd lately? The City Planted approx a Hundred (Yes 100) trees between 55th and 44th among the existing trees. I thought we were broke? The City also replaced the very nice, in good shape fence at the play lot at Short and Eleanor with a Iron fence (Surprise Surprise!)Approx 2 months ago. Why are we tearing down good equipment and replacing it with more expensive stuff if we are in such a crisis? Are the 2 above locations areas the IOC may be traveling by in the future?
Hey SCC, since we are in contract negotiations, and the city is crying broke, you could add a new thread about how the city is spending money left and right. I know if all of us coppers report what we see everyday on our beats it would show the city is lying!
I just got my guy JODY W. to get me a job teaching you guys how to police the real way. Trust me I'm an ex-FBI guy....I'll show you the right way!!!

I juat applied for the new CPD "Space Patrol" unit. Man is it cool, they get all the best equipment and the chicks dig the aluminum foil uniforms. They are sooo much better than any watch rats working a beat car. I can't wait to brag about all my accomplishments and throw it in all your faces that, we're the best and the Supe says so too. Have fun in your pool car, suckers.

Agreed. Pointing these things out might entice the media to report on them (or so we can hope). The city also tore down and rebuilt the whole playground at Wentworth Park. It wasn't broken down or in any kind of disrepair at all. Just takes precedence over hiring cops is all.
Oh and to add insult to injury they added a new wrought iron fence around it as well.
I have twice noticed these white unmarked cars doing traffic stops.
Have I missed something?
What's with this bullshit back to the streets? These house mouses must go out for a week a month? How can it be that they aren't required to take radio assignments? The poor beat cop who's getting pounded with jobs will get no relief from having these house mouses out there if they're not really going to take jobs and help. Why doesn't the F.O.P. inform the public of the smoke that J-Fed and Ritchie are blowing up their ass?
As far as Dugan's ingenious order from last week how many of those officers do you think are really working the street and taking jobs?
I'd be willing to bet that no watch secretaries ever actually hit the street city wide. That position is too involved to be absorbed by the W/C or the now depleted desk crew. And how many of the Commanders people and C.A.P.S. people are actually working cars. I mean working not assigned to. From what I've observed and have been hearing a lot of the chosen ones that were bounced out are being held down per the D.C. etc. etc. The only ones who really got fucked in that deal was the desk crew. 2 P.O.'s and 1 SGT simply will not cut it in an average to busy district. There simply is too much shit to do on the desk for just 2 P.O.'s and a Sgt. to handle. With the warmer weather and crazy days of summer upon us something will have to give.
Last but not least we're approaching 2 years without a contract. King Ritchie has said we're out of touch with reality and that we should be grateful to have a job. Why doesn't he tell that to his staff and all the aldercreatures who continue to take their 6% yearly salary increases regardless of what shape the economy is in? He has shown no evidence of tightening the belt regarding anything to do with him or the aldercreatures yet he wants a large percentage of city workers to take up to 17 unpaid days a year. Ritchie go fuck yourself. May the fleas of a thousand dogs infest your house!
"Squad, give me an event number for a revenue mission".
In part, the police department will do that by moving as many as 500 officers out from behind desks, Daley said.
500? Where? I'm callin' BULLSHIT on this one! 50 I can believe, but 500? Aint no way, Joe, aint no way!

Do all of these "Special" units ride around in the short yellow buses?
Ive had all my vests made at Nate's, good quality merchandise, i was in the shop when the owner told customers to beat it cause they didnt have proper I.D. Why would level 2 Body armor go to Iraq anyway? They use all that level 4 armor! Its got to stop an ak-47
Nate's Just sent 50 mourning bands to our district, for the troops. as a South sider i cant see these guys selling vests to punks on the street.
We wore better body armor in Iraq than used police shit. I think they are just taking the vests and making a buck off of it.
The question is, if a law-abiding citizen who has been made a criminal by the daley enterprise for refusing to register arms, shoots someone committing a forcible felony, what happens then? I mean, we're all disarmed for the most part - except you guys, and you're busy attending to the animals down south and west. Do people in this city end up defending themselves lawfully then face prosecution? Does this even happen here? You can't rely on the news for SHIT.
The vest's were supplemental. To be used as they saw fit. I donated two so I'm curious as to how donated vests are winding up on the streets. I've see them throw out non-police at Nate's also.
I have been getting gear at Nate's for almost 30 years! I remember one time he made a cop from Berwyn Get his Id out of his car just to sew on patches on his leather. At the time i was surprised, I knew he was the police cause we were talking for a awhile, but now looking back the owner was right! You just never know!
