More Missing Equipment
No, we aren't talking about almost ten light bars from various city, county and state police cars:
- An entire Com Ed truck was stolen from a utility yard in 017 Sunday. No word yet if it has been recovered;
- Upwards of fifty propane tanks disappeared in the same area. We don't know if these are 50 barbecue-sized tanks or the larger cylinders.
Given the price of fuel and the prevalence of space heaters using propane fuel, the tanks could be just a simple theft. But it still makes the hair on our necks prickle along with the Com Ed truck and the light bars disappearing. If any Water Department trucks go missing, we won't be worried - we'll be moving the families out of town.
Be careful. Be aware.

the com ed truck was stolen because it had a huge roll of copper wire on the back of it
017th District, most Mosque's in the city and largest Muslim population.
Don't forget all the light bars that are being reported stolen.
So who would think twice about stopping a Com Ed truck?
How about police car arriving on the scene where a com ed truck happened to blow up?
Be very careful officers. These terrorist assholes look to take out 1st responders after an initial explosion.
Secondary devices are part of their MO.
Chicago ready for something like this? Super Bowl sunday, 3 wks away.
Hell NO!
the feds are very interested in this. they are about 90 percent sure that all of this is terrorist related. They have plenty of vehicles to use to park infront of buildings and blow up. What i hear they are suspecting is that the terrorists may be devising a plan to take the taxi cabs they own(crown victorias) and paint them white and put all of the chicago markings and stickers on them.. the hardest things to find are...thats right... the light bars! most companys will not just sell cpd light bars to just anyone without raising some flags. Now a com ed truck??? seems like that can hold alot of explosives. hopefully whoever is doing this is caught... and the propane tanks.. great secondary devices when they have a simple pipe bomb strapped to them... just like they used in colombine. thing could get interesting in the future.. lets hope they are caught and all the materials are found. be safe out there.

Good! The sooner this Gomorrah is leveled, the sooner it can be rebuilt the right way.
This is just the tip of the iceberg. I was reading blog 501 and its all there you just need to read between the lines. Lets put all the pieces together. Stolen Crown Vics, stolen light bars, stolen M plates, and now stolen ComEd truck. These all don't really add up without the last key ingredient. I spit my citgo coffee all over the microslate when it dawned on me. Daley always talks about selling things off like the airports, meters, skyway. The last piece of the puzzle is the retirement of Big Bird. He's starting to raise an army of freelance inspectors that Jfed can hire like mercenaries. The inspectors are the next to go civilian. Just when we thought we had seen the last of ole Birdie hes coming back and more powerful than ever! Got your straight pants on? Better not reach for that turtleneck! 2010 is the year that big bird's civilian inspector training academy becomes self aware.
Maybe Dick Cheney could shed some light.
When I was in Iraq the Muj would steal Ambulance's, Police trucks, porta- potty cleaning trucks and whatever they could use as VBIED's. Propane was used in a lot of IED's there. They would use them right away before they were noticed to be missing or hide them for a long time hoping they would be forgotten.
A Com Ed truck? What the fu.....
1. You want the bad guys using propane.
2. It presents little threat compared to a whole host of other volatile liquids.
3. Probably just common theft.
4. Have a bunch of reasons for saying that.
5. Also suspect the containers will turn up eventually when the thieves discover other problems concerning them.
6. Won't specify the problems I worry about in this wise.
7. Trust me when I say you want the bad guys using LPG rather than other things.
V/R JWest
Would everyone just relax about these thefts. I work in a sooper secret unit that is comprised of the best and the brightest officers in this Department. You lowly beat cops, even the people that think they are in a high speed unit cant even make a pimple on our asses.
It can be all easily explained. You see some gangsta is planning on having a off the hook par-tay and he needs our police lightbars for the dance flo. The propane tanks are for all da food that is going to be served. How else is chicken, ribs, and hamburgers going to cook? The Com Ed truck is going to be used to hook up the illegal power tap to power this krunked out shin dig and tap in to the Comcast line for the Spice channel. Joe needs to get his porn on.
So go back to answering domestics and filling out dog bite cards because we have it all taken care of. Chicago is not a terrorist target because our mayor says so.
They'll disband patrol before they disband any teams. The department knows that small "team concept" units of elite , aggressive, new breed officers.....willing to roll anywhere at a moments notice is the only thing that can work.
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Unfortunately, this is a completely untrue statement. This very blog's comments show it.
Take a look around your roll call and tell me how many people you see that are 'elite'. How many 'no business on this job' dog-ass cynical waste-of-spaces do you see? How many yound kids who could be good coppers but are already poinoned by the rhetoric are looking at these dogs and learning the wrong lesson?
And we are not alone. How many supervisors continue to let this typw of bullshit slide? How many supervisors shouldnt even be supervisors?
Teamwork? Seriously? Everyone jealously hoardes their info and tips because, God forbid, 10 coppers work together and make a good pinch over 4 officers. We don't work well together nearly as often as we should or we like to think we do. The infighting here on this board proves that.
Quit looking at the bosses and quit looking at everyone else for leadership. Look at yourselves, and look at each other. We get the leadership we demand - so DEMAND better. Start holding your supervisors responsible for THEIR conduct. If they are doing what they should - MAKE them. If we put the pressure on the bosses - by our actions and our wants - maybe we can get this shit turned.
No - I'm not talking some pie in the sky "We Are the World" bullshit. 35th is detacthed from us - it's a political machine shop. It's City Hall with uniforms. But you know what - fuck them for now. This is about us, on the street, in the Districts. Think no higher than the Watch. Every Watch has the workers and has the dogs. Quit letting the dogs run the show. This is about our lives and our safety - I dont give a shit about the 'numbers'. Take care of each other, fuck the bad guy, and be the police. For each other. Let that put the pressure of the dogs, and let that put the pressure on the supervisors. If a Sgt isnt helping - fuckin tell them thay are not helping.
This elite team shit drives me nuts. Everyone is a member of an 'elite team', yet we have very little real teamwork. Quit deluding ourselves - lets take care our each other.
Is there anybody remaining in the exempt ranks at CPD with enough savvy and moxie to connect the dots and make a move to protect us?
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaaha!
I love my jokes!

To the softball complaining about the world's biggest cover-up:
Believe it or not, we haven't had one single explanation as to that situation. Everything we've had here and everything we've regularly deleted is questions from media-types or people outside the loop asking, "what's the real story?"
No one, and that means no one, has offered any explanation at all, so if you've got info and you want to type it up, fire away. But quit bitching we aren't publishing when there isn't anything to publish. Maybe the cover-up worked so well that there never will be anything to explain?

Professional courtesy doesn't apply to a wife, kids, brother in law, next door neighbor, etc... If you don't want a ticket, then drive carefully.
Someone is going to get caught with 1 or more of those lightbars and have some 'splaining to do ! I hope this happens more sooner than later so everyone will calm down. Watch for some dumb shit to put one on a table at a flea market . Ebay used to be full of that stuff, I wonder if the dics are looking there ? They used to allow siren/light bar control boxes on there, "disabled" by taking the fuse out of the back.
Lets all remember J-Feds role in 9-11 and information that was forwarded to him by Agents in the field
My wife has a cousin who was in the CIA now he works for a think tank in DC with a focus on terrorist inside the US. At a wedding when he had way too many in him he told me he think the terrorist are just waiting for the signal to attack.
Could this be it? who knows.
How about a few specifics on this truck in case one of us retired guys (or even civilians) should happen to see it we can call it in.
Speaking of stolen equipment. I am stuck in Vancouver working for the olympics, so I cant go to the public viewing in Austin on the stuff recently found. Can some one look for a Chrome GT mountain bike with Red rims. Was stolen about 6 months ago. Who knows, might be there.

Tell wifey to slow down.
I live at 98/Damen and see mopes like your wifey barrel down Damen through this intersection without regard for anyone but themselves EVERYDAY. In case wifey didn't notice, 98th St. doesn't have a stop sign.
Butt if the wifey wants to play chicken, tell her to try Winchester instead, ain't no stop signs at 98th and 97th AND plenty of like-minded careless drivers about. EXTRA 200,000 POINT BONUS: there are two loud flea-bitten dogs who live on the N/W corner of 97/Winchester that sometimes wander about the intersection.
You and the wifey don't live on the N/W corner of 97/Winchester, do you?
The simplest explanation is generally the best.
Well organized terrorists wouldn't be this open. I hope.
Therefore the only reasonable answer is the Daley/Vanecko crime family is now "reselling" copper wire to the city.
You heard it hear first.
Mark my words.
Remember the day.
An apple a day.
Remember the Maine.
GPS ?????????
How about placing GPS strips on State, County and City take home cars light bars?
Who the hell is in charge here?
OT - HQ was going bananas today. It seems some guy in an obnoxiously colored H2 parked in Jody's parking spot. Nicely done.
They drove the ComEd truck right through a steel fence. It was a cherry-picker. There was a very expensive roll of copper wire on the back. Its true about the propane tanks too. They have been taking them over the last couple of months. We are sitting ducks for these P.O.S. No way are we ready. No manpower in 017 either, its been drained away to the bare bones. For all those who have been insulting 017 as a slow District, I would rather take on all of the CVLs, GDs and Kings than these terrorist radicals.
OT- To all the posters on the "Rumors" post. If you got that much time to sit around and bull shit and microscrutinize this bull shit department, you are fucking sick. Everybody knows that special units are for bosses sons and hair gel idiots.I can't count the number of times they they fucked up and rode away and left everybody else to clean up their mess.If you got more than 20 years on and are over 50, you are a fucking loser in life as well as this dept.and are only here because you want to be. Get out and enjoy life you fools.The projects were not designed for multi generations of poor slobs and niether is this department. Do your 20 and get out and deal with some real people for a change,not these ghetto thugs or even worse these bull shit bosses kids and white shirts. There, I said it.
To 9:13am. Was a ticket necessary for your wife for not stopping long enough at 98/damen? Maybe not, wasn't there, don't know Bt2294 or your wife. But I'll tell you what, if your wife drives through Beverly or any other residential area slowing down instead of stopping all the time its only a matter of time before she ends up with a child either under or over her car. Unless you and your wife are heartless, you would never get over that, much less the family of the child. So, I know stop signs are a dime a dozen in residential areas, but it doesn't make them any less important, especially to the grade school kids trying to cross at them.
Anybody got daughter-Byrne's number.
She is a highly trained counterterror specialist, she should have the answers.
I think our own elected officials are a far greater threat than terrorism. Islam is not pissing away my childrens future, taking away my Constitutional Rights, or controling the health care system. Take off your blinders TARA tool.
90% sure its terrorism related my ass! Who told you that? Oh that's right, you made it up.
And saying no one will sell lights is stupid. Look online.
Any Day now !
We know that City Hall and Police headquarters are safe. No intelligent life in either place!
In fact City Hall, Shortshanks and the brain trust of aldercreatures are enabling terrorists and thieves to operate in this city with impunity by not hiring, supporting, supplying or training first responders. Police intelligence is an oxymoron!
Seems like today and tomorrow are days to be especially watchful and careful of everything.
There are two more things to throw into the mix here. One is that Al Queda loves anniversaries and symbolism. Tomorrow is the first anniversary of Obama's inaugaration, right?
Second is that for Obama's predecessors, Bubba and Dubya, Al Queda directly attacked the U.S. within the first year of the new presidency. The 1993 WTC attacks and the 9/11/2001 events.
Seeing as how they haven't pulled anything off recently, maybe they are shooting for tonight or tomorrow. These are good days to be very careful.
Please stay safe all.
This is all goood ideas about this terrorist theory. If the truck comes up within a couple days without the copper. might be a little relief. If the truck doesnt come up. We got something big to be worried about Remember were first responders so be very careful.
When you see a crew working, especially in the vicinity of an HVT, don't hesitate to check it out and determine if in fact they should be there.
Every utility generates work orders and know where their crews are when they're out on a job.
An ounce of prevention...
Whatever happened to those Two or Three missing City of Chicago Yellow Tow Trucks from last year? They were brand new yellow tow trucks. Does make you wonder. Has a terrorist cell been activated? Is it just a matter of time? If so, first responders are doomed. and we're not taking Fire Department, as they don't call us the Blue Canaries for nothing.

WE'VE BEEN MISSING A SUPT.OF CPD SINCE PHIL CLINE RETIRED. I MISS PHIL,AND SO DO ALOT OF US.
Again in the 017, looks like crime just keeps rising. Mealer says he does not care about the rising crime rate, just let me keep me gold star, i can't lose it. It's all i lived for. The crime suppression car is gone again. The W/C tours the dock from his office. This is very serious and MEALER does not care about this, just ask him. The commander is more worried about if he can read your name on the radio sign out sheets rather than a terrorist attack in the city or even in the 017 district..
MEALER and BARNASS will save the city..
Hey SCC, I'm CPD and live in Norwood Park. Today, I looked out my front window and guess what I see? A big white van parked with a man and his son (I guess) dressed in religious muslim garb standing on either side of the van facing East/Mecca (at my house!) praying-I think. I started snapping photos. Interesting at minimum-I'd like to share some of them with the blog. Where can I send them? Can I post them? Most of these mars lights were taken blocks from me...you never know. Thanks.
Time to stockup on supplies, food, fuel, water and ammo.
Shorty will be Out of Town and will have the BEAN covered before he takes care of us.
Shorty will have a multimillion $$$ monument built but will let the survivors die a slow painful death.
Obamacare will not take care of us.
Obama (and Weis) will see that the terrorist are afforded full rights under the Constitution and prosecute and officer who violates their rights.
Stay safe, time to take back our country and/or have your escape plan ready.

Not stopping long enough? At a stop sign? If she stopped, she stopped. I never saw anything about stopping for a certain amount of time at a stop sign in the Rules of the Road. That's fucked up. I consider myself lucky when someone actually stops at an intersection instead of blowing right through.

Yeah, that day before Christmas dude lighting off the explosives in his underwear over Detroit wasn't recent at all.
I agree that this might be terrorist related.
you see???? there is more than one asshole on this job.
Light Bars stolen.
Vehicles taken.
Power truck taken.
Anyone else thinking Domestic Terrorism here??
Be careful.
Stay safe.
No need to worry. All is well. The threat has been eliminated. alQaeda is no longer our enemy but our friend. They have embraced our Christian ways and resolved to join hands in praise.
Wait a minute. That seems a bit far fetched. I think the government is lying to us. Would they do that? NAAAHHHH!

The Massachusetts voters in the bluest of the blue states have pissed in the face of the Messiah by electing Republican Scott Brown to the U.S. Senate.
Copenhagen, New Jersey, Virginia and now Massachusetts. Everything the arrogant Obama touches turns to shit. He may now realize that Americans don't want his socialist political agenda shoved down our throats.
Fuck Obama, Martha Coakley, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, Barney Frank and the rest of these liberal Democrats!
Vote all the Dems out come November.
Let's do this here in chicago...............
Eight months into Lewis Towers' first term as mayor of Sauk Village, two police officers and a member of his support staff are calling for an"independent, outside agency" to investigate an apparent "pattern and practice" of favoring black municipal employees and applicants.
--Yeah, that day before Christmas dude lighting off the explosives in his underwear over Detroit wasn't recent at all.--
You think they wracked it up as something they pulled off both within the first year of the presidency and on an anniversary?
They didn't pull it off, and it seems like they'd try to do something tonight or tomorrow to fall within the first year of presidency and the anniversary rules. We'll see. I won't be surprised, and hope that none of you are if something happens.

Hey try reading the original comment. He didn't write her for speeding or not stopping at the stop sign. She was written for not stopping long enough. There is no set amount of time that you must stay stopped at the stop sign. I would demand a bench trial and ask for the in car camera video.
VICTORY,VICTORY,VICTORY!!!
The citizens of the most LIBERAL state in the USA have spoken. God Bless them!

OFF TOPIC:
Hell must have frozen over because Republican Scott Brown defeated heavy favorite, democrat Martha Coakley in the senate race in the most liberal state in the country giving the Republicans the late ted kennedy's former seat. A seat kennedy himself has held for 47 years in a state that has not elected a Republican since 1972. Looks like the people are starting to wake up. Look out daley and company the revolution has just began!
If you got more than 20 years on and are over 50, you are a fucking loser in life as well as this dept.and are only here because you want to be. Get out and enjoy life you fools.
So, are you the son of a boss or the hair gel police?
BROWN wins In MA. This is huge news. A republican winning Kennedys seat. Maybe America is waking up and realizing they dont really want Chicago type "CHANGE"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No, no more news, arbitrator put a strict veil of silence on the parties involved from talking about anything else.
Did I say that YES there WILL be retro?

To all of you posters that say a P.O's wife deserves a ticket. You are exactly whats wrong with this department and the reason that P.O's constantly get shit on by the city and everyone else. If we dont take care of each other who else will? Unless she was totally ignorant,or wasted and ran someone over there is no reason to ever write a coppers wife a ticket. Wake up and realize its us and them and by you fucking over other cops and thier families you just became them. So I hope when you get stopped you are shown the same courtesy as she was, jagoffs!
the greatest trick the devil ever pulled off was convincing everyone he doesn't exist.
Why is the commander of the 017 district such a ass? It sounds like he was picked on a lot as a kid, maybe even beat up by his classmates! So now he will show all of you p.o.'s, Sgt's, Lt's and Capt's who's in charge! The commander is out of control and is not focused on the safety of the citizens of the city of Chicago. The officers spend more time in the station signing out radios and cars rather than policing the district.

This guy has done enough shit to beef about. You gotta make something up? You're a big a tool as he is.
My wife has a cousin who was in the CIA now he works for a think tank in DC with a focus on terrorist inside the US. At a wedding when he had way too many in him he told me he think the terrorist are just waiting for the signal to attack.
Could this be it? who knows.
1/19/2010 11:00:00 AM
Well my wife has a cousin that's married to a guy that has a sister that gave her ex all 5 seasons of "The A Team" on VHS and he (the ex) said B.A. Baracus (Mr T) has already "cancelled" the terrorists that were supposed to signal the attack. So tell the high level security expert, ex-CIA guy that gets drunk at weddings and passes out suuuuuuper seeeeecret information to total strangers that he has nothing to worry about.
it's not like they locked up a commander.

SPEAKING OF MISSING EQUIPMENT
Isn’t there a law that all public buildings, like police stations, have to be equipped with an AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY CARIAC DEFRIBOLATOR?
Now Shortshanks spent plenty of our money on da ‘Limpics, on palm trees on our beaches and got a billion from the parking meters not to mention what he saves in police salaries everyday. So why is there not an, AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY CARIAC DEFRIBOLATOR in every district police station and other places like the Academy and Homan Square. Didn’t the right vender make the right bribe.
Didn’t the Chase Bank, (I think they were called First National back then), people provide the Fire Department with infrared search cameras when Shorty was too busy planting flowers in median strips? Maybe they could do it again.
Whatever organization might donate this life saving equipment to our department, please see that it is not in the form of cash to buy the equipment. Money has a way of disappearing with this city.
OK, don't write coppers' relatives unless they are jagoffs...you shouldn't be generating revenue for the city anyway...stolen lightbars, vehicles, propane tanks, etc., the work of bums, gypsies, and other criminal douchebags...Dump Daley, Weis, et al if you want to fight terrorism fight the corrupt politicians and revruns.

To all of you posters that say a P.O's wife deserves a ticket. You are exactly whats wrong with this department and the reason that P.O's constantly get shit on by the city and everyone else. If we dont take care of each other who else will? Unless she was totally ignorant,or wasted and ran someone over there is no reason to ever write a coppers wife a ticket. Wake up and realize its us and them and by you fucking over other cops and thier families you just became them. So I hope when you get stopped you are shown the same courtesy as she was, jagoffs!
I have stopped so many wives, kids and other family of police officers that have this screwed up attitude that they deserve some kind of special attention because they are related to a cop....NO THEY DON'T!!!! They are not above the law and are not permitted to drive like assholes. I am the police and have been for many years. I don't drive badly and I don't expect my family to drive badly either. I would prefer to have them get a ticket now rather than get in an accident because of their bad driving later. Furthermore, in relation to your "us and them" analogy.....your wife is neither "us" nor "them" so teach her how to drive properly so that she doesn't get a ticket!!! Finally, I haven't been stopped by the police in nearly 20 years because I don't drive like an asshole.....try it sometime, it works.
Let that put the pressure of the dogs, and let that put the pressure on the supervisors. If a Sgt isnt helping - fuckin tell them thay are not helping.

If this is terrorist related, they will want to cause as much damage as they possibly can, this rules out attacking city hall or 35th street.
That's fucked up. I'm so grateful that I'm gone. Please stop writing each other tickets.

Professional courtesy doesn't apply to a wife, kids, brother in law, next door neighbor, etc... If you don't want a ticket, then drive carefully.
---------------------------
WRONG! I've always been told that it's our DISCRETION if we want to write a ticket or not. I've given lots of drivers a break, it doesn't matter if you're a Doctor or a factory worker whose going to work at 5AM.
Just because you're working a traffic car, it doesn't you can SANDBAG anybody just to keep your spot.
If you got more than 20 years on and are over 50, you are a fucking loser in life as well as this dept.and are only here because you want to be. Get out and enjoy life you fools.
Did you ever hear of a family? kids in high school or college? people are on this job at that age because they have to be, not because they are losers in life. The only loser is you, as you type away about others in mommies basement, probably the same douche who writes coppers family members...

Sound like a traffic nazi, listen dweeb, it's just traffic ok? unless you can honestly type on here that you write and tvb every car you stop for every infraction of the IVC, save your holier than thou diatribe. It's simple, we take care of own, our families, emeergency workers etc, as best we can. Now, if we are disrespected to the point where a ticket is warranted, then write it and let the copper know about it when he inquires, otherwise use the discretion this job allows, it's about all we have left.
remember think outside the box,know your enemey.

OT: 022 District 3rd watch beat 2294 traffic car on 18 Jan 2010 you sir are a tool. Thanks for writing my wife a mover for "not stopping long enough" for a stop sign at 98/Damen. That is the best mover you could find?
1/19/2010 09:13:00 AM
Tell wifey to slow down.
I live at 98/Damen and see mopes like your wifey barrel down Damen through this intersection without regard for anyone but themselves EVERYDAY. In case wifey didn't notice, 98th St. doesn't have a stop sign.
Butt if the wifey wants to play chicken, tell her to try Winchester instead, ain't no stop signs at 98th and 97th AND plenty of like-minded careless drivers about. EXTRA 200,000 POINT BONUS: there are two loud flea-bitten dogs who live on the N/W corner of 97/Winchester that sometimes wander about the intersection.
You and the wifey don't live on the N/W corner of 97/Winchester, do you?
1/19/2010 12:30:00 PM
NO Sir I dont live there. The point being is that he could go to Western/Ashland/Halsted and 85% of the drivers are suspended and driving like complete assholes. But its so much safer pulling over a lone F/2. He would never pull over a car full of bangers. Joke!!

Dig a little deeper. It was an absolute failure of the on-scene management by certain high-ranking, on-scene, in-charge incompetents from the CFD. You guys at the CFD know the story.
In that fire, which does not speak for future occurrences, the resources were available. The on-scene management was deficient. A good man, Commissioner Joyce, took the hit for it when it was the incompetence of others, others that were promoted beyond their capabilities and promoted not by Joyce.
Hey try reading the original comment. He didn't write her for speeding or not stopping at the stop sign. She was written for not stopping long enough. There is no set amount of time that you must stay stopped at the stop sign. I would demand a bench trial and ask for the in car camera video.
1/19/2010 08:58:00 PM
Right. Not stopping long enough for the stop sign on Damen is OK unless you almost hit another car or pedestrian crossing on 98th street (the 98th street that has no stop sign). Demand a jury trial of your peers -- reckless drivers who don't live in the area.
Finally, I haven't been stopped by the police in nearly 20 years because I don't drive like an asshole.....try it sometime, it works.

Unless you can say you have written every violation you see. There is no justification for giving the coppers wife a ticket. We give people warnings all the time, why not those our fellow brothers care for and love. You giving her a ticket is taking money from your brother in blue and giving it to Daley good job dick.

Okay, everybody be kind to this young puppy and smile to yourself, knowing he, too, will be over 50 someday and will have found new perspective.
Over 50 here and more than 20 on.
Being no fool, I am waiting for the contracts to be settled and then there's the matter of medical coverage and that last 2 1/2% of pension I'm accruing. Since that last 2 1/2% is about two grand a year ( MORE, once the contracts are settled), I figure it'll buy me a decent little vacation each year, so pardon me if I stick around a little bit longer.
As for being a loser in life, I've got great friends and a good family life. I have two nice homes, one not in this country. My cars are paid for, I have no mortgages or debt, and I have an investment strategy that repays me well. I got it all legally and didn't have to play fast and loose to make myself a good life and a good retirement.
Besides, your youthful antics make it very entertaining to keep coming to work each day, young'un.

THERE NEEDS TO BE A GATHERING OF INTEL OF SUCH EVENTS TO DETERMINE IF THERE IS A VIABLE THREAT HERE, OR SOME SMALL TIME THIEVES OUT TO MAKE A QUICK BUCK, I ASSUME THE FIRST THING IS MORE LIKELY, THOSE LIGHT BARS COULDN'T HAVE MUCH SCRAP VALUE AT ALL.

My wife has never been stopped for a traffic violation. The last time I was stopped was 20 years ago. Teach your wife to drive like a normal person. BUT I would never bitch about this on the blog. Instead look up the officer and ask for professional courtesy in court. It takes a real pussy to complain on the blog. Man up and talk face to face bitch!

Maybe that's what "not stopping long enough" meant.
Ther are no smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors or defribliators in A3. We have a walgreens first aid kit from 1975. We are prepared!!!
I thought this thread was about the Com.Ed truck, bbq bottles and the light bars. Not 2294s ticket. Speaking of light bars, I am going to go out on a limb here and say that within 5 years, the roof mounted lights will go the way of the phoenix bird. ISP and many of the burbs have gone with the inside lights. When mounted at the top of the front/rear windows, ala ISP impalas,you have the visibilty of a roof mounted light bar without wind drag and the chance for some clown to steal them. And no more drilling the roof.

I'm sure the citation was for failure to obey a stop sign. The officer probably TOLD her it was for not stopping long enough. I've been known to tell one or two 'good citizens' that those are not 'slow signs, but stop signs'.
BUT, if I give a lecture, I don't give a ticket. If I give a ticket, I don't give a lecture. And, as bitchy as some family members are, I've only once written one of them a ticket.

What district is that intersection in?
Professional courtesy doesn't apply to a wife, kids, brother in law, next door neighbor, etc... If you don't want a ticket, then drive carefully.
My question to those jackasses that write anybody and everybody no matter what is...
If the mayor, or an alderman, or a member of your commander's family committed a traffic violation, would you write them ?
Hell no you would'nt , you know if you did, your ass would be BOUNCED off your nice safe traffic car and dumped in the ghetto where you'd have to do ( horrors) some REAL police work !!!
There have been instances is smaller departments and other jurisdictions where mayors and councilmen have gotten written, and they took their tickets like adults. However this ain't the Chicago way. The Chicago way is what Leroy Martin did to two PO's when his daughter was cited.
For every one bad driving decent citizen out there, there are probably five more drunk, high, suspended-revoked gang banging thugs that deserve your attention, and those are the ones I focus on.
Treat PO's family the way you'd want yours treated.
