More Uptown Support

In the form of Officer Safety Alerts:
  • Officer Safety info: 023.
    Sheridan Rd. 4500 block, Red hat gangbangers(Vice Lords) had beer hidden along curb side of white Buick, concealed under the vehicle was a huge can of Sabre red OC spray ! Sorry for not posting sooner.
Thank you friend! Make sure you give all that info to the call taker at 911 when you dial it in. We might take a while to respond due to ongoing shortages, but that bit of info might save Officers a lot of trouble.

You are so welcome, SCC. My GF and I stumbled into that while returning from shopping. And speaking of safety info ... See Uptown Update, (yesterdays post), the folks living on Magnolia think they heard a Tech 9 popping off on full auto. Fireworks ? Can you spell section 8 ?
023: Best Police service anywhere in the city. Small District ? I dont know how they do it, they just do !

Does anyone know if crazy Lt. MF from 2nd watch is due to retire soon? It is impossible to have an interaction with her without losing your dignity and self respect. God for bid you spill water on her. She might melt in the watch commanders office.

Please be careful responding to calls wait for back up and give yourself an out if attacked. The police dept is being targeted. Write a report for every call it easy and shows the true crime problem.

its great to see the support coming out of Uptown. This is the same area that had Cop Watch last summer and the guys on bikes used to film the police during stops. Lets hope that the police support continues into the alderman election b/c we have one of our own running up there.

Supporters welcome paroled Puerto Rican activist
Humboldt Park rally welcomes former Chicago resident who served 30 years in federal prison

By Oscar Avila, Tribune reporter

9:48 PM CDT, July 26, 2010
Advertisement

Just hours after being paroled from federal prison Monday, Carlos Alberto Torres waded through a joyous homecoming awash with Puerto Rican flags in Humboldt Park.

Once on the FBI's "Ten Most Wanted" list, Torres was released after serving 30 years of a 78-year sentence for seditious conspiracy for his role with a violent Puerto Rican nationalist movement known as the FALN.

In a rally to celebrate his freedom at a Humboldt Park community center, Torres gently danced to the thumping of plastic buckets and the chants of about 500 supporters. He wore a black guayabera shirt and a scarf adorned with the word "patriota."

So all you westside and southside "real police" think the gangbangers in 023 are less dangerous, huh? Well, a banger is a banger...they're all dangerous. Imagine a beat copper responding to a group of "youths" drinking on the street and is surprised with a snootful of OC. Think you might be worried about being disarmed? Think shit don't happen in 023 or elsewhere on the northside? Get serious, we're under siege everywhere in the city. Be strong...stand together.

Ubelievable. Here is someone who calls into 911, reporting something that could injure another officer, and assholes on the site are bashing the po's in
023. Maybe the next civilian who logs on and see's that might think, "ya know, they don't care about their own, so why should I". The 4 "gangbangers that live in uptown", might not be the type YOU may deal with (12:55 and 3:28), and nobody claimed they were, but they might worry some people who live in 023, asshole.

Unfortunately again we hear from another two year wonder softball that wants everyone to know how CRAZY he is for working in a fast district and solving all the crimes there. Guess he isn't smart enough to know there are gangs with guns everywhere not just in his wild world. He also isn't smart enough to understand the meaning of the very simple post and that some of the honest public have our backs. Now go tell your mommy you are ready to be tucked in for bed.

Well it's obvious you aren't a very good police officer. First, you don't even know the hang outs of the gangs and what gangs they are. Second, you are tying to act like a smartass by naming a few of them, but you got that wrong too. Third and most importantly, you are a danger to your fellow officers being SO SOFT and not knowing your surroundings let alone the idea of the post. You are jealous for some silly reason and just don't have the maturity to understand the citizens post. If you have a problem with the tact guys just walk upstairs and tell them how you feel little fella.

Yes alot of us have done the west and southside......... That doesnt mean it isn't anymore dangerous then any place else. The savages are moving north. Go to Rogers Park. The animals are alive and well there and have been for YEARS. No not as bad as the westside and southside. I worked all................. BUT, it just takes ONE to take out ONE OF US......... Be careful, don't criticize and back each other up. Our lives against theirs.

God forbid something happens to a cop working in 023. If it did, would you "RIP" him or her and show solidarity as one, or write it off because the district is not as dangerous as your almighty 015, 011, and the southside.

I read the blog everyday, and most of the time I thoroughly enjoy it, but it is comments like these that really show you all are not ONE, and that some think they are so much better because of the district they work in.

You "real cops" that work the ghetto just don't get it. The purpose of this post was a show of support for the police, from people who want to take back their community! With 3 murdered cops in 2 months I applaud them for taking the time to warn the police about a potential threat. This tells me that they are paying attention and are concerned about the welfare of the police in 023. The people in the ghetto don't give a shit about you.
11:08, 12:14, 12:55,3:28 and 10:18Go back to your ghetto districts and deal with your welfare breeders who pay nothing in taxes but manage to drain the most police resources.

Who's the idiot? I get paid the same as you but I work in a nicer district.

Thanks Uptown!

And what do you think would be their next move after you were OCed office? What have you seen an offender do countless times, in countless videos, to police whom they have incapacitated. What did they do to the two female POs on the south side and to Densy after their car crashes incapacitated them? You know, think real hard. Yep. What do they often do when they get it? Of course that cant happen to you, right? It diddnt just happen to one of our own who was in good shape and trained often, did it? Please get your head out of your ass.

Yep, you're the first and the last officer to work in a fast district. Come back in 10yrs and see if you're so excited about being the "real po-lice." Eventually you'll realize that the ghetto will never change and none of the "citizens" give a shit about you. In fact, many of them want to see you dead in the street. Maybe someday you'll realize the importance of defending the few good neighborhoods left in Chicago. Until then dream of the day when you can wear jeans to work with your backwards baseball hat and an ever present toothpick in your mouth.

You guys are right about "it" can happen anywhere. And you are also right about working a district in which the majority of the residents support the Police like they do in 023 as opposed to say,011 or 015. But what get's me is these hair gels that think places like 023,012, 020 etc. are fast busy districts, that they are overwhelmed with jobs. I say that NOBODY should be able to work in districts like 013,020,023 etc., until they have worked for at least five years in places like 011,015,025. When they do that, THEN and only then will they realize what nice places 023,013 or 020 are and will appreciate more. I also think that coppers that follow that pattern of starting out in busy districts and then transferring to a slower on years later are better coppers.
I've worked all over the city. 006,009,013 and now a district in A/3. I can say without hesitation that coppers that do it that way end up to be better coppers. Learn the tricks of the trade in a district where you will encounter things more often and then take that knowlege to a place where it can be used to help citizens that want to help you take back their neighborhoods like those in 023. Working the ghetto is fun. For awhile. But how many gun pinches do you need to be an expert on gun pinches? How many dope pinches do you need to make to become an expert on dope? I say no more than two or three. It all becomes the same after that. If you want to experience real Police work, try a place like 013,012,023,020 or even 016. Learn what it means to work with people that care. Learn what it means to see a crook walking down the street, to follow him, watch him as he breaks into a car or home and then arrest him. Learn what it feels like to inform that victim that yes, someone broke into his home but that YOU caught him. Learn what it means to be proactive and do REAL police work as opposed to being reactive and doing the same old shit that you do now, that your father did and in some cases, even your grandfather did. These assholes that you pinch in the ghetto were there before you got there, will remain there while your there and will be there when even after you retire. If not them then their kids or grandkids. Believe me, I've seen it.

Instead of being reactive to incidents that threaten officers, how bout being proactive. It always takes an unfortunate incident in order for officers to adjust to the way they approach that same incident the second time. You may think approaching a subject with OC is "bullshit", but when u get sprayed and disarmed, i can promise that you will not approach that same incident the way you did the first time. Its all bullshit right? Till something goes very very!! Dont be comfortable with ur surroundings, ever!

As a citizen who lives on the south end of the twenty-third district, I am greatly concerned. I feel that my wife and I made the right decision not to be "urban pioneers" when we bought our condo just north of lincoln park. We are concerned because we NEVER see the police on our street. I am sorry that the "yuppies" in uptown have not seen their neighborhood change like their realtors told them it would, and instead of seeing a massive increase in the value of their home, they are now upside down with their mortgages. I don't believe that because they made a poor decision, were greedy, or were fooled by a real estate agent they are entitled to more and better police service. People are robbed and shot on the south end of the twenty-third district just like they are on the north end.

Dear - yuppie,
Just for your information, the police pay taxes too. We have to pay City Sticker Taxes, Property Taxes, State Taxes , Federal Taxes, and any other damn stinking TAX that u pay. So, if u think about it, the police actually work to pay there own salaries by paying the same TAXES that u and your liberal yuppie friends pay. So Please don't use that lame ass excuse about how civilians pay our salaries. Cause when I go home and take the uniform off I am also a civilian who PAYS taxes.

Dear Mr. Concerned Yuppie:

I am a police officer in Chicago. I really love my job and really love being the police and helping people and most of all, to create a decent community where decent people can live, enjoy themselves, etc....

Unfortunately, we do not have a lot of manpower. What little bit of extra bodies we do have, they get sent to the West side of Chicago. It's not the fault of the blue shirt police officer. Take it up with your Mayor and the City Council. You seem like a concerned citizen and I hope you do contact your Alderman and Mayor.

This particular environment is quite upsetting to me. As I see it now, and I am not trying to scare you or anyone else is that we as a great American city are on the edge/cusp of where Detroit was in the mid 1980's to early 1990's. I hope and pray we don't go the way Detroit went. If we do, it would be a God awful shame. We still have time to avert that type of a disaster.

I wish you the best of luck in your present situation sir or madam.

Signed, A hardworking blue shirt wearing police officer.

"fake gang bangers" you say? I hope you don't have a job that requires serious decisions because you clearly have trouble knowing right from wrong. Today the VL's drove right up on the Stones and shot two killing one at 4:30 in the afternoon in front of everyone. If you feel they are fake just walk up to them and let them know. And while you are acting so tough let the police know how you feel also, so they don't rush over to help your dumb ass while you are bleeding out on the street. Please move because you are DUMB!!!!

FYI to the honest people of uptown. The gang banger(P-Stone) that was gunned down, was possibly the shooter in several homicides over the last 5 years and took part in lots of violence. He is/was also a major street seller of crack cocaine and has been to prison for the same. You now have one less scumbag in your neighborhood that could possibly harm you or you neighbors.

Yep! I guess 023 is a quiet little northside district with our wanna be gangbangers. OH WAIT! 2 P Stones shot, 1 killed in a driveby shooting on Magnolia done by the very Vice Lords with the pepper spray.
Na! stuff like this doesn't happen 023. Right? And what?...1-2 days after the post about the Vice Lord with the pepper spray. What the fuck do you think the gangbanger was gonna do with the pepper spray after he sprayed you Officer? Perhaps he would have shaked your hand and told you what a great job you were doing. Or maybe he would have disarmed you and executed you on the spot then pissed on your corpse. WTF! Idiot!!!!

What a great group of people on Uptown Update. In the comments about the shooting on Magnolia, they are discussing giving COMPLIMENTS to Officers on the IPRA website ! Speaking of Magnolia, we could use a little MSF action over here. Can you hear us, Jody ? Can they stay for a couple of weeks ? Please !

Yes the Gang problem is VERY real in 023 AND 019. For those of you that RECALL. Remember Mike Giles and the Project Latin Kings of Lathrop Circa
2006-7 when Giles WALKED RIGHT UP TO a man crouched playing cards and shot him several times killing him? It took "creativeness" to abscond with the witnesses and get them to A/3 so they could tell the story. It also took us 4 weeks there after of being on roof tops protecting those witnesses from Giles and the "kings".It (gangs in 023) are VERY real. They WILL try to take your gun in CQB,they will herd up on you and failing that they will elicit the masses of grimy people in the projects to turn against you. While it isnt as voluminous as lets say 63 and Lowe or 85th and Vincennes,it is there and it is real. Treat these punks EXACTLY the same way you would treat them on the South side.

Ill name the ones you NEED to watch for:

SALEEK BERBERENA
ALEXI BERBERENA
JEREMY JOTZAT
"MOOSH" DEAF KID USUALLY ARMED
BRIAN CAMPBELL
MARCELLUS CORREANO
"MANIAC"
KEYAN WILLIAMS

Thats just a FEW of the BANGERS in "nice quiet" 019 that are oozing into 023. You need more intel those that know me call me Ill help anyway I can

I think it is great that residents care enough to check out this blog and post stuff. We need people to become involved and not through BS caps meetings but really involved.

We need all the help we can get, it is our city too. We live here, I live in 019, I don't go off to a suburb after my day is done, I drive a few blocks.

Residents: keep calling the police with your tips and clues, much appreciated.

I remember the old CC room, someone would be on the phone with the dispatcher giving information about offenders etc. as it happened and the dispatcher was putting it out over the air as soon as he got it. They would point us in the right direction from their windows, still talking to 911. Good feeling to have people on our side like that.

i a policeman in the 023rd district, let me tell you that the officers do patrol every street most of the time. that been said, let me also tell YOU (mr. yuppie)that WE DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH RESOURCES (MANPOWER) TO GO ALL OVER. if they are shooting in uptown, guess were 911 dispatches are going to send us? uptown. don't blame us for lack of manpower, look and see were our tact team ends all the time (west side, south side), and if that's not enough, now they are taking uniform officers too. maybe you can organize a few churches to go to city hall and complain to the mayor. however, before you complain please be sure to know what district you live in, 023rd district does not go west of clark or south of fullerton!!!!!
