Castle Doctrine Again?

  • A South Austin resident shot and wounded a man who crashed through the window of his home while fleeing police early this morning, officials say.

    The resident had a valid Firearm Owner's Identification Card and police are not pursuing charges against him, police said.

    This is the second time in little more than a week that police have chosen not to pursue charges against someone who shot an intruder, despite Chicago's ban on handguns. On May 26, an 80-year-old East Garfield Park homeowner shot and killed a suspected burglar.
Maybe the Department can start some kind of promotion to encourage this sort of thing?

Shoot three fleeing felons and get a free box of ammo!

Free toasters for dead home invaders?

In cases like those, can't we just give a 19-P code? Let the home owner throw the intruder out in the alley for the regular garbage pickup to haul away. This might get to be a regular occurrence. Then if crime goes down, how will j-fled take the credit?

The "VICTIM" / shooter should take a play out of the "shysters handbook" and sue the City of Chicago and the mayor gunless dick

who are ultimately responsible for a "police chase" which caused great emotional damage and distress to a poor citizen in his home.

subsequently being FORCED to defend his life and family by shooting another human being sic. felon.

The shooter must be irreparably
damaged I'm sure.

OT: More stupidity from some of the members of our ranks. The wife (Off-duty PO) has a "male friend" at the house. The hubby (not the Po-Po) gets pissed and fires a shot at the so-called "male friend." The wife then pulls out her pistola and shoots the husband.

Off Duty Cop Shoots Husband

It may be time to call a divorce lawyer.

An off-duty Chicago police officer allegedly shot her husband in their home in the 11600 block of South Elizabeth Street around 1:30 a.m. Friday, the Chicago Tribune reports.

It started when the husband pulled a fire arm and aimed it at his wife's male friend. The husband allegedly fired but missed him, according to a police statement

His wife quickly retaliated.

She grabbed her weapon and shot the man she vowed to spend the rest of her life with for better or worse.

The man was taken to the hospital in unknown condition, but officers said he's suffering from non-life threatening injuries.

The Independent Police Review Authority is investigating.

It appears this couple took the phrase "till death do us part" seriously.

It is your choice if you do not want to be armed. We cannot force you. It's your choice to be a victim.

We will make those people who are unarmed register and pay a $500 yearly fee because they are a liability to the city and we need to hire more police to protect them.

No licenses are necessary for concealed carry - that is your right.

All unarmed citizens must be registered and MUST pay the $500 yearly fee to pay for police protection.

Those victims who are unregistered and are found to be unarmed during a crime will be sentenced to three years in jail or $30,000 for not registering and failing to protect themselves by buying a gun.

--Crime would DROP dramatically. And those whining Handgun Control advocates could pay their $500 yearly fees and walk around with their pink IDOG cards (I Don't Own Guns)

Surprised it hasn't leaked yet, so now I'll do it -- officers in 013 picked up the shithead that the first "armed and dangerous 80-year old" killed as he was burglarizing the vet's home. Seems they caught him breaking into a car near a building housing senior citizens and in the car with him was gun.

The ASAs REFUSED to let the officers charge him with UUW because the gun wasn't actually in his possession.

So, depending on how you look at what ended up happening to the shithead, ASAs either fucked up again or inadvertantly ridded the world of another criminal parasite.

I would like to thank the unnamed police officer who mailed me a fabulous black T-shirt. Perfect fit. Above the heart, it bears the proud CPD star logo. On the right side, appropriately in yellow, there is a cartoon caricature of a coward sprinting ("gotta run"). Beneath that, it reads "J-FLED".

Using J-Fled's vacuous and absurd drivel on WIND-AM 560 radio ("Big John and Amy" show), I herein respond to his pussy "rebuttal" for, as Amy Jacobson said, "running like a schoolgirl" from the scene of a still unsolved murder which just occurred less than a minute away. If you care to listen to the two interviews, go to www.YouTube.com and search for "WEIS" and "COWARD". As a bonus, Crimefile also posted "J-Fled" repeatedly stating those infamous words "GOTTA RUN" (the other way).

(1) "There were enough cars and the scene was secured". A murder just occurred 45 seconds south of you, you damn fool. The unidentified killer escaped. Unless and until a "disregard" is given via Zone 6, we'll take 50 units if necessary to catch the shooter possibly hiding nearby and back up your brothers and sisters in harm's way. I personally was involved in a case where two were fatally shot and the murderer was apprehended with the murder weapon hiding beneath a porch some 3 hours later and 3 blocks away. STRIKE ONE!

(2) "If I showed up, I'd be a "distraction". You arrogant, pompous sonofabitch with your anti-murder spiel in badass Englewood. You're the fuckin' chief of police! Get your pussy ass over there and help with the search for the murderer and cover your "fellow" officers in harm's way. STRIKE TWO.

(3) Let's get one thing clear, you fuckin' COWARD. I've spoken with unnamed media people and like the rank-and-file, they know that you're a coward and a disgrace to the Chicago Police Department. However, the media people all agreed that ranking newspaper editors and television news producers want to "sugarcoat" or tone down your cowardice. STRIKE THREE!

No one respects you, J-Fled. Even the corrupt mayor knows you are a COWARD.

Every copper should have a "J-Fled" T-shirt for off-duty summer wear.

As for my gift from Officer "X", check your home mailbox Monday. I came across a bunch of paper, double-sided "J-FLED" beat tags which I will share.

P.S.: Radio cohost "Big John" Howell: Not to interrupt you with your WEISelshit--but I've got your number, B-J, self-proclaimed fan of the beat coppers.

I would be more then happy to pony up for gift cards for legal gun owners of the city (especially seniors) to get a box of ammo.

But be careful what you wish for. We had job security. And there are some meatheads that would use guns the wrong way.

Example: the guy who shot the asshole that let his dog relieve himself on the lawn of a former Marine.

I tend to side with the former Marine but don't know ALL the facts of the case. I would guess the victim taunted the shooter. Just a guess

None the less... God bless us all

I just heard that they're going to be asking for sgt. packages for the merit hacks within the next couple of weeks. That means that they're making a class soon. How many? Who knows? It won't be me either way. I wonder if this is in anticipation of the 130+ sgts. they're already short or the 200 that are going to retire.

By the way it's been well over two years since they've made any detectives. I guess with the 11 or so being dumped out of Bomb and Arson we can forget about a class huh?

Who cares right? Either way I do absolutely nothing and make 85K a year. For all you hard chargers wait to get sued and/ fired/suspended for doing your job you'll see the light.

Sort of.

Sec. 24‑10. Municipal ordinance regulating firearms; affirmative defense to a violation. It is an affirmative defense to a violation of a municipal ordinance that prohibits, regulates, or restricts the private ownership of firearms if the individual who is charged with the violation used the firearm in an act of self‑defense or defense of another as defined in Sections 7‑1 and 7‑2 of this Code when on his or her land or in his or her abode or fixed place of business.

An affirmative defense is not the same thing as it not being a crime in the first place. So you can be charged. Most likely a judge would just toss the thing if it ever got to court.
