Due to the economic downturn we will only be given the option to rename Pulaski Day for the holiday of our choice.

This year, perhaps Pulaski Day might be known as Good Fucking Riddance You Jagoff Weis Day.

Or, more appropriately, Remember Bill Cozzi is Still Suffering in Prison So Send Him a Letter Day.

Reading the CH: 32 website that's carrying a story that 139 ex-cons have been hire by City Hall over the last 2 years.
Offenses include, DRUG SMUGGLING, CAR-JACKING & hold on to your f***in shorts, shooting at 2 Chicago Police Officers!
Yea, yea, every one needs a break...especially drugs smugglers & COP-KILLERS.
Well that's f***in IT!
Quinn with his taxes, Lisa and her stupid shit RE: FOID cards, Daley ruining the city financially ...well you get the picture.
Come this June, bye f***in bye Shitcago!
I've lived here 60 f***in years, but it will take twice that long to unfuck this State & City, if ever.
Taking MY money elsewhere... at least somewhere a City government cares about its Police that it does not hire people who would shoot or kill its Police Officers.
Come June, someone gonna be short his ration of flaming hits & grape soda.
Adios parasites!

It's always the public employee slugs that cry that we are all doomed if government is shutdown but yet all emergency services, jails etc. keep humming along. Paid holidays for these hacks shows nothing more than government at all levels is bloated welfare for public employees.

The sixth day without J-FLED and counting! What a great day! Things are looking up!

And to J-FLED, you are an incompetent excuse for a law enforcement professional and you deserve no good fortune in your future for how you did Bill Cozzi.

We, the department as a whole, can work towards recovering from your nonesense, but you near-destroyed a man after he had already served his prescribed punishment. I hope Bill will be blessed with health, wealth and happiness after he is released. That would be Bill's best possible revenge for the injustices you visited upon him.

Anybody sees JFLED tell him the town of Praxedis G. Guerrero, Mexico needs a police chief.

Seems the broad (Marisol Valles Garcia) who was the police chief was fired when she didn't show up for work and bailed to the U.S. to cover her ass (and her son's ass).

Maybe Weis can convince the power who bees (sic (for the spelling police!)) in Praxedis to overlook his non-Mexican citizenship and appoint him chief of police.

Weis can negotiate two salaries: One from the town of Praxedis and one from the drug lords!

For years I have been saying that we should pick our own holidays.

I would want to pick my kid's graduation day, or birthday.

You want Jewish Holidays, Muslim Holidays, no problems!

Just establish some rules, and pick them when we pick our furloughs. Better for the city and much better for us.

From an Internet source

Casimir Pulaski,
Father of the American Cavalry

HISTORY OF CASIMIR PULASKI Casimir Pulaski, the oldest son of Count Joseph Pulaski, was born in March, 1748. At the age of fifteen, he joined his father and other members of the Polish nobility in opposing the Russian and Prussian interference of Polish political affairs.

Outlawed by Russia for his actions on behalf of Polish liberty, he traveled to Paris where he met Benjamin Franklin. Franklin convinced him to support the colonies against England in the American Revolution.

Pulaski impressed with the ideals of a new nation struggling to be free, volunteered his services. Franklin wrote to George Washington describing the young Pole as an officer, renowned throughout Europe for the courage and bravery he displayed in defense of his country¹s freedom.

In 1777, Pulaski arrived in Philadelphia where he met General Washington, Commander-in -Chief of the Continental Army. Later at Brandywine, he came to the aid of Washington's forces and distinguished himself as a brilliant military tactician. For his efforts, Congress appointed him Brigadier-General in charge of Four Horse Brigades. Then again, at the battles of Germantown and Valley Forge, Pulaski's knowledge of warfare assisted Washington and his men.

Later in 1778, through Washington's intervention, Congress approved the establishment of the Cavalry and put Pulaski at its head. The Father of the American Cavalry demanded much of his men and trained them in tested cavalry tactics. He used his own personal finances, when money from Congress was scarce, in order to assure his forces of the finest equipment and personal safety.

Pulaski and his legion were then ordered to defend Little Egg Harbor in New Jersey and Minisink on the Delaware and then south to Charleston, South Carolina. However, it was at the battle of Savannah in 1779 that General Pulaski, riding forth into battle on his horse, fell to the ground mortally wounded by the blast of cannon. It is said, the General's enemies were so impressed with his courage, that they spared his life and permitted him to be carried from the battlefield. However, two days later, on October 11 Pulaski died.

I have seen reporters in this town get out in front of a camera on the street and do a story on Von Steuben Day without once using the word "German."

How can you do this? I'm still in awe.

I see all over the place henny penny has resigned her commander spot, but on the A & A's she is still a commander assigned to the 11th district. She was even, code 43 Monday, day off holiday without pay.
Maybe it won't take effect till the 16th or maybe it's all just smoke and mirrors.

Nope sorry TRU guy. Event numbers and homeland security checks are even a larger waste of time. If you actually did some police work and made an arrest , instead of having to look for a warrant by stopping 50 cars and running names , saving your spot wouldn't seem so hard. If you really can't find an arrest in the places you are sent, quit. You are just pathetic

http://www.suntimes.com/4190300-417/off-duty-chicago-cop-suspected-of-making-bogus-911-call.html

Guys, this Niles PO extended professional courtesy and one of our guys took advantage of him -- not cool. Wasn't someone on here bitching about Niles PD a few months back? Well, this isn't going to a leave a good taste in their mouth. I've never been pulled over, but if I were, I know the drill: professional courtesy starts with the officer getting pulled over. C'mon fellas: let's represent a little better!

John Nowakowski,
Father of Fillmore Cavalry

John Nowakowski, the oldest son of Count Joseph Nowakowski, was born in March, 1959. At the age of fifteen, he joined his father and other members of the Polish nobility in opposing the Russian and Prussian interference of Polish political affairs.

Outlawed by Russia for his actions on behalf of Polish liberty, he traveled to Chicago where he met John Farrell. Farrell convinced him to support the communities against the organized drug empires of the west side.

Nowakowski, impressed with the ideals of a new city struggling to be free from drugs, volunteered his services. Farrell wrote to Richard Brezczak describing the young Pole as an officer, renowned throughout Europe for the courage and bravery he displayed in defense of his country¹s freedom.

In 1986, Nowakowski arrived in Fillmore where he met Sergeant Farrell, Commander-in -Chief of the Fillmore Army. Later at Brandywine, he came to the aid of Farrell's forces and distinguished himself as a brilliant military tactician. For his efforts, Congress appointed him Brigadier-General in charge of Four Horse Brigades. Then again, at the battles of Germantown and Valley Forge, Nowakowski's knowledge of warfare assisted Farrell and his men.

The Father of the Fillmore Cavalry demanded much of his men and trained them in tested cavalry tactics. He used his own personal finances, when money from Congress was scarce, in order to assure his forces of the finest equipment and personal safety.

Nowakowski and his legion were then ordered to defend Little Egg Harbor on Harrison and Kedzie on the Eisenhower and then south to Charleston, South Carolina. However, it was at the battle of Savannah in 1989 that General Nowakowski, riding forth into battle on his horse, fell to the ground mortally wounded by the blast of cannon. It is said, the General's enemies were so impressed with his courage, that they spared his life and permitted him to be carried from the battlefield. However, two days later, on October 11th Nowakowski did fail to pay his credit card bill.
