Soderberg Visitation

A solemn vigil up north tonight:
And a reminder that we are all targets:
  • An alderman who discovered graffiti on a South Loop building that said “we kill cops” just days days after a police officer was gunned down on the South Side wants the defacement removed immediately and criminal charges against its creator.

    Ald. Robert Fioretti (2nd) said he found the graffiti on a building at 1234 S. Michigan Ave. as he was “driving by in the neighborhood.”

    “I alerted Graffiti Busters first” to get the graffiti removed as soon as possible, then police were notified, he said. “It sent such a wrong message, I wanted a criminal investigation.”

The Memorial Service is to be held Thursday on the University of Chicago campus.

The alderman's flunky was at the restaurant with his mom, saw the graffiti and called his boss. The restaurant manager said it was on the wall for at least one month. another example of a grandstanding politician self-promoting on our backs.

The graffiti was probably done by a columbia arts student. They're always tagging in the Loop...like the hardcore gangstas they are.

Ironic since it was one of his constitutents who most likely scribbled that garbage on the wall. God willing they will catch the piece of garbage that wrote this and throw the book at him or her.

Now, gangbangers have no regard for human life, we should we have any regard for theirs? Time to call in the marines and declare open war on all 'bangers.

Fioretti made his money suing the police. In spite of that if he runs for mayor I would support him. He can be a pain in the ass as far as calling the police over bullshit but he walks his neighborhood each morning and calls 012 and 013 with the problems he observes. Also he has shown he will stand up to Daley and has shown his support for the police in the neighborhood,

This the same Aldercreature who had PO's cars ticketed by Revenue outside the 021st District during street cleaning when our police parking lot was full and the rest of it was flooded with water. Talk about sending the wrong message! Also, I hate it when these Aldercreatures attempt to capitalize on OUR loss in the media. As an Aldercreature, if he sees graffiti, he is mandated to report it and have it removed. It's Simple Simon shit. Don't incorporate a PO's murder into it, especially when WE are still mourning, for your own publicity. What a typical out-of-touch political Asshat!

I went to the visitation last night. The family seemed genuinely appreciative for all of us being there. They were amazed that coppers who didn't even know Officer Soderberg would go out of their way to pay last respects. And yes Mommy Egan, I didn't misbehave. I acted as an adult. Now can you please start treating us like adults? Better yet, just retire.

I found the following quote from Officer Soderberg's wife particularly touching. I will rush home to hug my kids after work today.

* Officer Soderberg is survived by his wife, Jennifer Louden. They had been married for nearly five years.

His widow issued a statement Thursday night through the police department that encouraged people to help the less fortunate.

"I am terribly devastated," Louden said. "I know many of you want to help. Here is what you can do. If you have the opportunity to do something and change someone's life for the better, do it. Start by taking care of every child. Thor and I knew that each young person needs five important adults and one strong adult to provide a positive influence in their lives.

"In his honor, please use a kind word, a smile – as much as you can give to help someone in need. Every one of us can do a tremendous amount of good to impact a child, even one that isn't ours."

A fund has been set up to honor Soderberg. The Chicago Community Trust announced "The Thor Soderberg Fund - Connecting Youth with Nature." It was set up by Soderberg's late wife. The money will be used to send underprivileged kids to summer camp. To make a contribution to the fund, click here.

What a pathetic joke the brass of this department has become. The Commander who picked up and took Officer's Soderberg widow to the morgue was busy complaining to her about his marital and financial problems. When they arrived to the morgue the CPD brass which included Burst, Master's, and several others were at the morgue laughing and joking and texting on their Blackberrys. The clowns did not even realize that the widow of the officer was there. When someone informed them who she was they ran over to her kissing her ass. She was so pissed off that she did not want them to have anything to do with her husbands funeral. She is my new hero!

back in the '80's, i had occasion to have a conversation with a few drunk bangers who thought they had a right to terrorize a school playground near where i lived.

during the conversation, they asked me 'what was i gonna do, call the cops?', to which i replied, 'no, the cops are the last people i want to see here right now. in fact, you youngsters ought to thank God there are cops, because the fact that there are cops is the only reason why you and your buddies are still breathing. in fact, there are a few 'Nam Vets on this very block who would, were it not for the fact that there are cops, take your dumb ass's out from a block away, and lose absolutely no sleep over doing so. so, the next time you see a cop, thank him for the fact that you still exist.'

that concept seemed to never have entered their little minds.

from that point on, the rascals stayed on the side of the school yard farthest from every house on that block.

yep, those were the days......

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I have been with CPD for +30 years. I have many friends and acquaintances here and with the County. I know them well and others who used to be friends of Tom DARTs.

Based on their personal experiences and knowledge along with some of my own I state the following:

Tom DART leaves alot to be desired to be involved in Law Enforcement. He is going to run the Sheriffs Department & Cook County Sheriffs Police Department into the ground. He is preparing to name a former FBI agent Chief of Police as we speak.

Be wary of the devil you don't know.

If he becomes mayor consider the following. He will sell you all out and it will be even worse than it currently is, which is hard to believe.

The department will be led
100% by Mt Greenwood (19th) ward types and attorneys & their type of politics will continue.

Good luck !

7/14/2010 09:34:00 AM

Grandstanding?
Oh no, there will be none of that at the Memorial Service.

Officer Soderberg LOVED being the Police. He LOVED that he has a career in which he could actually help people in need. He also loved his fellow Officers. Anyone who knew him knew this. Officer Soderberg has, like the rest of us, been to too many Police Funerals. He detested what some of the Bosses have turned the service into. Like us, he disliked the “Dog and Pony show” aspect of burying one of OUR Brothers/Sisters. Officer Soderberg felt, like many of us, that the Wake and Funeral needed to be about the INDIVIDUAL, not the Brass, the “Pomp and Circumstance”, or a bunch of pompous, self important managers trying so hard in their attempts of juvenile “one ups-man-ship”. Officer Soderberg was sickened by these types of displays, especially at a recent Funeral. He also expressed this to his Wife, “Just in case”. Sadly, tragically, and suddenly…

It is unfortunate that Officer Soderberg’s Wife has to experience the crassness and tackiness of some of our “Exempt” ranks, first hand. With some of the individuals that Officer Soderberg, and his Wife knows, this sad event could be easily be turned into a Circus by some of the upper echelon of our Department. It is Jennifer Louden’s wishes, as it was Officer Soderberg’s, that THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN. Attempts have already been made by one exempt to “back-door” his way into speaking at the Service. “Too bad, Soo sad ‘boss’, aint gonna happen!” And you thought you could “charm” your way past his grieving Mother who is in poor health, after suffering from a stroke? Real good, boss, real “classy” of you, take “NO” for an answer and sit the fuck down. Go play with your blackberry in the corner. There is another boss that at some point will deservingly “get his” due to his ineptitude and inferior competence level. Seriously, how can you NOT find Lake Shore Drive??? Oh, too busy bitchin’ bout something, huh…

Every speaker has been reminded that this service is to honor one person, and one person ONLY: P/O T. Soderberg

This is not to say that the Family has any dislike or ill feelings towards the Department, or its Officers, including its Exempt ranks. Because they don’t. They unfortunately, thru the loss of Thor, know all to well what a difficult job we have.

Anyone that knew Officer Thor Soderberg knew that he really LIVED his life. He would urge you to do the same. A random act of kindness, help someone in need, help someone less fortunate that yourself

I think a lot of us had 'that' talk with our families after the last murder and honors funeral.

I reminded my family this week that, under no circumstances, was Daley or Weis to be allowed to attend, much less speak at, my funeral, should the worst happen.

Joe Airhart was my friend and we worked the same team. After hearing Weis' comments at Joe's funeral, and watching the 'it's all about me' show he put on in Rockefeller Chapel, I swore I wanted no part of the politics of honors funerals.

You have to wonder if Officer Soderberg had the same conversation in HIS house last month, too. My deepest sympathy to his wife.

(Northside will vouch for this having been there for Kilroy and Hauser.)
They are just as deserving as any other CPD member that made the "Ultimate Sacrifice."
All it takes is a little time, energy and someone willing to put in the effort.
Contact the alderman in the ward that the sign is to be installed and go from there. (It requires an approved ordinance sponsored by the appropriate alderman)
I would suggest that some investigation be done to determine an appropriate location.
The family(ies) should be part of the entire process.
YOU brought it up, now run with it.
Good Luck.

Wow, I don't get this reaction at all. CPD or not, I'm glad to hear someone say something positive about us, and sounding as though they halfway appreciate what we do. What the fuck is wrong with you guys?

OT. At Thor's memorial service, did anyone see the photo from the sun times photo gallery of Alderman Ed Burke where he is wearing what a police badge around his neck and another badge on his belt? what's with two badges?

Most cops bristle at the 'creep factor' you get from most wanna bees and Police fans. That explains the reaction to O'Keefe (big time creep factor), Masters, Brust and J-Fled playing police too.

We are happy to have the citizens at our sides, but sometimes, some are a little odd.
