Citizens Call for J-Fed's Head
The night was filled with complaints over the city's priorities in tackling a deficit that can only be filled by tax increases and spending cuts.
"At $315,000 a year, your police superintendent Jody Weis makes more than you ..." charged Michelle Dixon-Holmes.
"Yet, my understanding from the airwaves is that rank and file don't respect him, and in the time he's been here, crime has not gone down, it's gone up. Weis has to go."
Shortshanks might be in a bit of trouble. Hopefully, his Teflon coating is wearing thin.

D thinks we are going with our friends here Dan and Jodi but SUPRISE!!!a... couple of his best buds some CPD Granis and Pollard are gonna be here this weekend!! They planned this trip since we first left he will be soooooo suprised! yay!
The surronding agencies are also holding a benefit, I hope I never hear of a CPD member ever messing with a Denver p/o...
Nothing will happen...move along please.....
J-Fed was never a police officer, but continues to wear the uniform that we all earned from the day we left the police academy. He has a policy "think tank group" with no time on the job giving him kiss ass advise and telling him what he wants to hear. He back doored Bill Cozzi, changing the rules and sending him to ferderal prision. He makes over 4 times what a lowley P.O. makes while we sit year after year without a contract. Yeah, he's just great for Chicago!

what about the take home cars?????
O.T. Officers if you are 55yrs old and have 29 years on the job and do not take the offer to retire with the City paying your Health Insurance and 75% of your pay for not coming to work your making a mistake.Move on and start the next phase of your life.Why would anyone want to stay and work.Move On
Let's not let these so called citizens make any decisions on police policy or brass. Next thing you jags will be letting Jesse Sr or Jr make the call on who should be at the helm. Let it go and get some therapy.

She forgot to add that shortshanks should also pack his bags and get out of Dodge also !!!! he spends like a drunken sailor & does not provide for the working citizens of this city. the man has no shame or ethics.
HE GONE........
Coulter & Damen on Weds. early afternoon.
What is up with the late 30's latino p.o. who is riding around in a light blue unmarked police car with a GEL-HAWK hairstyle!
Are we working or having a failed attempt at a fashion show?
C'mon guys- shouldn't we be concentrating more on working and less on trying to have a GQ 14 year old boys hairstyle!
Kind of off topic....but just wanted to let people know that the next city council meeting for the Police and Fire Committee is Sep.3 at city hall in room 201-a. I think we need to get a group there to find out why Ald. Ike Corathers is still the head of this committee while he is under federal indictment. The council wants to approve an item that would allow THEM, final say in CPD general orders. Excuse me....but how can an accussed criminal be left in charge of such matters? Not to mention the countless other aldercreatures that have been charged and convicted of crimes.....why don't we leave the policing up to the police please!!! The media, of course, in it's infinite wisdom, made no mention of the fact he is accused of federal crimes when they covered the story of changing the way orders are approved. This all stemmed from the "firing at vehicles" fiasco that Sneed leaked a few weeks ago. After that J-Fed mess regarding that order Ike is on TV and both papers stating he wants council approval before orders are changed. Give me a break!!! They can't even do their own jobs without breaking laws. Again leave the police work to the professionals.
Wow, it is definitely noticeable. The people are NOT happy with Daley. Now is the time for a unifier/reformer to run against him.
Daley is weak and the people are pissed off.
Start talking to people while on your beat, you will be pleasantly surprised at how pissed off they are with the state of affairs in Chicago.
It's getting serious when the constituents that put him in office are questioning him... the divide between those who never voted for him and those who did is slowly closing.
I wish Americans still had the stomach to deal with tyrants the way they did in colonial times. If this was the case J-Fed, Daley, Durbin and all their kind would be tarred and feathered or left to rot in stockades. They are all vermin!
......and what an interesting head it is.
When Jody meets his maker he should donate his body to science and his head could be put on display next to Bushman at the Field Museum.

Let's just hope THAT message gets repeated at the other scheduled "community meetings."
I'm willing to bet that WEISel cuts his appearances down at the other scheduled "stops" and starts
sending JJ or EB as his "silent representatives," or possibly Dugan. Cuello, of course, has even less credibility than WEISel, if that's at all possible to fathom, and as such can't afford to be left alone to fend for herself in front of the media and public to answer any questions.
police shooting in 008 tonight.
maybe when he is done here he can go to Green Bay Wisconsin which just hired their first african american officer in the 150 year history of that department. HUH the 1st in 150 yrs.
yep $315,000 Idiot..everyone knows it...he was learning on the job,and it cost this city dearly..nice pick mayor

"DISPLAY HIS HEAD NEXT TO BUSHMAN"
THAT'S FUNNY...I WANT SOME OF WHAT YOUR DRINKING AT THAT HOUR.
Don't forget that at $315,000.00 he was in charge of emergency management also. Then the mayor quickly took that away from his underqualified ass but left him with his huge salary. Great job shortshanks. Piss away more of our money.
What was the result of the Moral survey? J-Fed said he would quit if he was the cause of lower moral. And, no one mentions anymore that he received a significant no confidence vote. Since then we have , Henny Penny in 011 destroying morale, after he dumped a good boss. We have Ruthie making the police look like a bunch of Barney Fife's. He's getting paid for 2 jobs but only doing one, and that one poorly. If the man had any honor he would quit.
Gee, why would a guy want to go to work at 55?
Maybe he's at the peak of his skills, having learned from 30 years on the job, and has 30 years experience, as opposed to the wonders with one year's experience 30 times.
Plus, his kids are gone, his wife is at home, and she wants to devote all her time to changing him from the man he is, to the one she's always dreamed of. Hopefully, not ALAN ALDA!
Problem is that Mayor Daley has never had a viable and competent challenger at either primary or election day. What alderperson is truly qualified to lead this city, who doesn't have a nose buried in special interests and corrupting wealth-building alliances? What civic leader is willing to run for mayor - they're almost all Daley-appointed proxies who dare not offend Daley. There is a political vacuum here. Paul Vallas was the last decent public official here in Chicago who was reasonably competent, not corrupt, and had interest in politics. He's been repeatedly discouraged from running for office anywhere in US.
Common wisdom says that Obama was encouraged to run for US Senate so that he wouldn't be interested in challenging Daley for mayorship. Obama would have benefitted from a term or two as mayor, clearly evident now that he's been elected as president, and Chicago would have greatly benefitted from his intelligence, collegiality, multi-racial/cultural background, strong educational credentials, and "good guy" persona. Now, instead, we've got a repeatedly re-elected corrupt mayor (who reads at 3rd grade level according to well-placed former Mayor's Office aides) who has "managed" this city into a disaster. Anyone, yes anyone, can be perceived as a "good" mayor when the economy is strong and the fiscal coffers are full; but when economic times are bleak, then his poor leadership and incompetence is glaringly exposed.
Chicago faces serious bad times, due to poor longterm economic picture, large imbedded low-income disfunctional population, deteriorating economic and job base, and flight of middle class. Most Chicago-area middle-class and white collar professionals don't live in Chicago (unless young and single). Chicago retains its 1/3 white population demographic only due to its residency requirements for city employees and the Eastern European immigrant influx. Black and hispanic college-educated professional households likewise move to suburbs for most part.
Crains Chicago newspaper did an article two years ago, comparing Chicago to Detroit. Crains' conclusion was that Chicago was very much like Detroit, but maybe two decades behind in the decay. Chicago has lost many of its corporate headquarters, and the corporate and civic participation here is significantly reduced. Non-profits have felt the decline in support for the past decade. Civic leadership is also notably reduced. Pat Ryan's designated leadership of Olympics Committee itself is telling; this is the same guy who put Maggie Daley on his payroll for $200,000/year for a non-existent position, for years, without investigation. Fitzgerald is just a lap-dog investigating the petty aldermanic corruption without going after the kingpin himself - Daley, and his cohort Speaker Madigan. God bless Chicago; the city is doomed to failure!
Green Bay must be racist. From my understanding, neither have they ever employed a pashtu speaking Afghani officer, nor a female from the Chongqing province in mainland China.
Unconscionable.

FOR YOUR INFO THATS THE 19TH DIST COMMANDER, AND A GREAY GUY
Let's face it... it's a win/win for JFed. He can literally (still) coast and pick up his <300k annually and walk away laughing all the way to the bank.
Nothing else to see here, move along!
What's up with one of the CAPS meetings in 023 voting for the indictment of one of the officer's in 023? Who let this get on the agenda?

Mind your own fucking business.
Everyone has their own story and set of circumstances.
Will you give up a $90,000 job in this shit economy?
I hate it when people (like Democrats) think they know better than others.
Lets credit the influence of Abner Mikva for bringing J-Fed to the dance. Its nice to know you can study for and take every promotional exam, to try and work your way up, only to have a Weis, Harris or O'Keefe butt in line with no street experience and start giving you orders.

Yeah, but the problem is that those who never voted for him don't bother to vote AT ALL. We need people to go to the polls to vote AGAINST HIM. Not voting at all is a vote FOR HIM.
My dog's got dibs on the WEISel ears. He needs new chew toys.
J-FED INSULTS EVERT CHICAGO POLICE OFFFICER BY WEARING OUR UNIFORM,HE HAS NOT EARNED THAT RIGHT. HE IS CLUELESS, BY DISRESPECTING OUR FALLEN BROTHERS AND SISTERS WEARING THEIR UNIFORM
Wow, it took a bit longer then I had thought, but I do believe the folks are seeing the light through the smoke and mirrors...
Maybe faced with self preservation, the midget will throw him under the bus, God forbid they start turning that energy towards him.
Maybe he works on the "THINK system" as featured in the movie "The Music Man."

*****************************************************
Shortshanks wasn't looking for someone to run the CPD, he already does that, and may I ad "very Poorly". Daley wanted a baloon headed puppet & he got one. The $315,000.00 he pays this bone head is just another example of how little regard he has for the TAXPAYERS money. He could have gotten a dummy from a theatrical prop store and saved $314, 800.00 a year.

Why r u old, bald guys always hating on me. Since when does hairstyle effect performance.
Don't just take his head...take the whole body...don't care what you do with it...just get it outta here!!!!
The Mayor seems to be making lots of mistakes lately. Parking meters, Weiss, corrupt Carothers, Olympics, nephew's scandal, body guard detail with city vehicle in Michigan, layoffs, no police contract and hirees. I am sure the list can go on and on. Oh and off the topic, Gov. Quinn is the biggest puss in the world for backing down to those two board members regarding the U of I scandal! I wonder why!
ot---police shooting in 001--bad guy dead, cop stabbed. anyone have more info>????
55 and out? If your mortgage is paid off and you are debt free with the prospect of another job that pays as well as this one,If you do not believe that all municipal pensions will be taxed in the very near future to go along with the very hefty tax increases the state and fed are going to do and if you believe the city has your best interest at heart and will always do what is best for you than give it a long look. If it looks too good....................
Its about time somebody outside the CPD started taking notice of what a fucking train wreck JPUD and his exempts are...

You really are a moron. It is absolutely none of your buisness how long someone works. Just because you have a minute on the joband want a 8a furlough..T/S. Anytime you think before you speak would be a step inthe right direction JUNIOR.
Daley and J-Fed can leave together.
Never realized Daley is a dim-wit. The Meter company made a mess and dim-wit Daley apologies - almost.
The company should have apologized and paid some of that $1 Billion they cheated the city out of.
The deal Dimwit Daley and the Meter people (I would call them thieves but they might try to sue me and I do not have any money to hire an attorney to defend me against the meter theivers..I mean the meter company) made shorted the city by $1 Billion and Daley is so stupid instead of grabbing the bulls by the horn and getting some of the money the city got shorted/cheated out of - HE apologizes....
Goodbye Dimwit Daley and J--Fed is going with you.
Speaking of take home cars...why is there a SGT in earps with a take home car. Since when is that a position with a take home car???

Maybe he's enjoyed it for many years, and he (or she)is good at it. He enjoys the company of the people he works with and they respect him. We need people who came up through the ranks honestly and put in the time in the trenches.
We need more of them, and less of the J-Feds, the Masters, the Henny-Pennys...

jody needs to realize that he is a member of the CPD, NOT THE FBI. SO PLEASE JODY, THINK,ACT, DRINK,RIDE,KICK AZZ,WORK YOUR DAY OFF,ATTEND BENEFITS,BE MORE OUTGOING WITH THE REST OF US,LOSSEN YOUR GUN BELT,AND EVERYTHING ELSE THE WORKING CPD MEMBER HAS TO DO, AND MAYBE YOU CAN HAVE ANOTHER 3 YEARS.
I do not care about 55 and out. I will be 60 next year and can float there on the medical so screw it all. Oh and Daley and Jody can Kiss My Ass! I am totally KMA my friends, it is a beautiful thing!
A guy traveling through Mexico on vacation, lost his wallet and all identification. Cutting his trip short, he attempts to make his way home but is stopped by the U.S. Customs Agent at the border. "May I see your identification, please?" asks the agent.
"I'm sorry, but I lost my wallet," replies the guy.
"Sure buddy, I hear that every day. No ID, no entry," says the agent.
"But I can prove I'm an American!" he exclaims. "I have a picture of Ronald Reagan tattooed on one butt cheek and George Bush on the other."
"This I gotta see," replies the agent.
With that, the guy drops his pants and shows the agent.
"By golly, you're right!" exclaims the agent. "Have a safe trip back to Chicago ."
"Thanks!" he says.. "But how did you know I was from Chicago ?"
The agent replies, "I recognized Mayor Daley in the middle."
Leave at 55?
NOW HEAR THIS, YOU CLUELESS BAG OF SHIT:
I will be staying on this job for as long as I want. I will continue to collect those large checks on the 22nd of every month by signing up for the different Special Employment opportunities offered by the Dept even though I don't need it as well as taking my summer and 13B furlos. My suggestion to you is to load up as many hours as possible at your $10.00 an hour security gig at the Qwiky Mart while you are enjoying your 1B and 2A furlos, and SHUT THE FUCK UP!!!
Oh ya, and another thing. I'm not giving up my spot on the 2nd watch either. So just plan on staying on midnights for a couple more years, douche.
This is such a wonderful sure guaranteed thing when are Donahue and the other FOP leaders leaving? The mayor and the city hate the police and would not even seriously consider a decent or any contract for that matter and now they can't do enough for(to) us. The only ones drooling for this are people with other income or short time on the job no seniority heroes.
O/T I was reading the updates on the Sergeant's Association web page.
Am I correct in reading that the city has submitted a contract to the union for ratification by it's members? Anyone have the scope on this?
hey don't worry about the old timers all the vitalis kids with less than 10 years should quit
you ask why there won't be any pension when you retire in 20years
you can bet on that
go complain to mommy and daddy about that bunch of cry babies
I do not care about 55 and out. I will be 60 next year and can float there on the medical so screw it all. Oh and Daley and Jody can Kiss My Ass! I am totally KMA my friends, it is a beautiful thing!

Go while you are healthy and before you outslick yourself. You have to go, to collect, and you will not be into Daley money until approximately 2 years after you leave. You are burning your money for approximately the first 24 months. Plus, the longer you stay, the longer you are paying into the pension and the less they will have to pay you.
Now, take a realistic look at the stats for guys that have stayed as long as you. The stats are dismal. Not many get into the Daley money, so keep thinking you are slick, because you are the only one thinking so.
coppers are always planning on what they are going to do twenty years from now---the first thing a copper does when they get the new fop book every year is to plan out the whole year right away--- my point is that people on this job plan to much for something that they may never see--- 55 years old and maxed out, you have to be buck wild to stay on this job--- there is a big world outside of the cpd....
When Jody meets his maker he should donate his body to science and his head could be put on display next to Bushman at the Field Museum.
You could'nt get that huge prodigious dome through the door, they'd have to take a wall out!
Why is he still here? Everyday the idiot speaks is one more notch on the hats of idiots!
