Interesting Rumor

Who was that man spotted around town yesterday? Was he just a tourist? Was he just passing through O'Hare and decided to catch a few of the sights?

Why would the former Commissioner of the Boston PD, the NYPD and Chief of Police in Los Angeles be hanging around Chicago?
  • On August 5, 2009, Bratton announced that after nearly seven years he would be stepping down as chief of police for the City of Los Angeles. Bratton will continue to serve as chief until October 31, 2009. Bratton will be moving back to New York City to take a position with a private international security firm called "Altegrity," serving as a of a new division where he will consult on security for police departments worldwide.
Guess he was just passing through. Oh well.

Bratton would be great, anybody else would be great. J-f@#k put his foot in his mouth again. At the ceramoney retireing Joe Airhart's star j-boy said the hostage situation was the longest two hours of his life. How does he think Joe felt waiting to be rescued? Jody said it took so long because there were two children in the apartment. When the fbi agents RAN out and left Joe behind they also left the children, but they did remember to close the door as they ran out, locking it. Please bring Bratton on board.

Among outsider "police executives", the word got out long ago about Daley's Chicago.

While the CPD desperately needs an outsider with integrity to end the demoralizing effects of political clout and corruption, only the delusional would believe that a legitimate candidate like Bill Bratton would take the job, regardless of salary.

The dealbreaker requirement is that you must cast aside principle, integrity and professional leadership and agree to be Daley's bitch.

Right, WEISel?

(OT) here is something that a good investigative reporter should look into to! The city is requiring emploees to take furlough days,and has figured they work 161 days a year so they are taking a days pay out of that figure X however many days! now lets look at shortshanks and the spineless 50, they tell the clerks office they work 356 days a year so much less is taken from their huge checks?

Bratton will never live in Chicago. When he was in NY he commuted from Connecticut. In NY you can own an "uninhabitable residence" in NYC and live outside the city and meet their residency requirements. The NYC residence can remain uninhabitable ad infinitum. This is what Bratton and many others did in NYC. Read his biography, it is in there and he talks about it openly. He doesn't want to live here and get paid less than $350 Gs. He can make that mioney overseas or in DC, or even on a realty TV show.

In the interests of spreading rumors I have some uninformed speculation.

Chicago gets the Olympics.

Weis moves over to Chicago 2016 to coordinate security issues with the Feds.

Bratton becomes Superintendent.

Daley puts on a dress and starts dancing at "The Baton".

"The Baton" becomes the favorite watering hole for exempt employees city wide.

Phil Cline opens up an "Old Country Buffet" franchise.

Tom Dart sees a TV camera and manages to walk away.

Blago runs off to Serbia where he becomes a hairstylist.

Sarah Palin's popularity diminishes to the point where she announces she's running for Chicago Mayor.

A white haired President Obama welcomes the Olympics to Chicago in 2016 whilst Richard M Daley watches the proceedings from the Day Room at a Club Fed.

A girl can dream can't she?

Ron Huberman and his partner adopt Alderman Munoz's children and make sure they get into top city high schools. Ricky is last seen crossing the Rio Grande heading south with the Feds in pursuit.

I also predict violence, mayhem and general disorder. That's just at the family wedding I have to attend.

Wishful thinking, SCC.

Although, when the CPD was "down" in the past, old man Daley brought in reformer O W Wilson to kick start it back to life... hmmm?

But, no. Why would a respected law enforcement administrator come to this cesspool and bow down to this punk criminal mayor...?

Although, The Stuttering Prick may be hatching a back-up plan to try to save the CPD in the event we lose the Olympics... hmmm?

But again, no. LAPD is already paying him $300,442, so money isn't really a factor, unless... hmmm?

What if the Little Criminal pays him $640,000 to do 4 jobs, three of which will be done by other people... hmmm?

Not a chance. He has hooked up with a former LAPD Federal court appointed 'monitor' to make millions in the private sector, although not without some controversy... (see below)

Shortshanks can't pay another outside Supt. candidate to come here and take over here. They've all seen WEISel crash & burn here, and there just isn't enough money in this City for any outside agency bosses to sell their integrity, as J-Fed has apparently done. My best guess is, those other agency bosses are involved with the private sector venture that Bratton is hooked up with, and since Chicago is smack dab in the middle of the country, it was decided that they would all take in a joint meeting HERE. We're still stuck with Asshole & Masters until October, I think.

LAPD is paying Bratton $350 large, and it appears he was well worth it. I like that Bratton told the Mayor of L.A. That he would make a 'big mistake' if he were to go with an outsider to replace him. No greater example of the failure of outsider mgt. than right here in Shitcago!

Any new boss will spend the first two years just trying to un-fuck the mess that Weis created.

Any superintendent worth a shit would have marched into Daley's office when Daley fired their Chief of Staff out from under them and told the stuttering prick where to shove his job and contract.

Weis came in and chopped heads and moved commanders. Like what he did or not it was a good move since politics put them in the districts they originally had. Then Weis fails to return the Dicks phone call, seeming to have balls, and then all of the sudden his Chief of Staff is gone and Masters is in. Weis stopped standing up pretty quick.. I just wonder what the pictures the Daley mob took of Weis really contain...

Chicago would be lucky to get Bratton. He got LAPD out from under a consent decree, increased their support from minorities, increased the size of the department and reduced crime while also reducing citizen complaints

The problem here in Chicago is politics, and he probably wouldn't be able to accomplish everything here that he's done in other places. Anyway, he's got himself a book deal.

First of all, Mr. Take it to the Bank you have never been right about anything. Secondly, Bratton was never interviewed for CPD, the mans name was McCarthy and he was in the upper echelon of NYPD. Thirdly, anyone who thinks Cline was an asshole should have their head examined. Lastly, it really doesn't matter who takes the helm at this point, there are too many cards stacked against us, namely Daley, the media, the Loevys and their sort, the liberal population of this city and state and a democrat in the white house. A good superintendent might ease our pain slightly, but the damage is done, that age of policing is over.

You must have taken a serious hit to the head immediately prior to writing your comments. DeLopez is a politician police pretender. He'd blow Daley for the job and continue to suck Daley off to keep the job.

Nothing will ever get better for us as long as Daley is mayor, and, even then, it is questionable how much better things will get. If you want to see the future after Daley leaves or dies, look at the mayor's office from December 1976 to date. It ain't pretty. Our best hopes were Mayors Jane Byrne, Harold Washington and Eugene Sawyer, but Daley and the old guard worked against each them until Mayor Byrne was ejected, Mayor Washington died and they undercut Mayor Sawyer.
