What Were They Thinking?
You know the cameras are there. You see the gathering crowd of shithead gang bangers. And you keep the doors open so they can film someone in your back seat?
At least two Chicago police officers have been stripped of their police powers and placed on desk duty after a videotape was made public in which the officers stood by as a crowd taunted a youth sitting in a squad car, the department said today.
The police internal affairs division is investigating the incident, the department said. Police would not say how many officers were suspended pending the investigation, but two uniformed officers can be seen in the video, which appeared to be shot by a cell phone camera.
There's a video link at the story. We aren't going to embed it because is has a bunch of liberal claptrap at the beginning and the eggheads are speculating on all sorts of nonsense. But once again, this appears to be a number of preventable missteps that can be completely misconstrued to fit some liberal fantasy of misconduct. But no one was hurt except for some gang banger's feelings. Close the squad car doors and there's no story here.

I just didn't see the point. Once the cell phone camera is out, joke's over. Close the doors and it's either 19K or 19P, but either way, it's time to get the fuck out of there.
Buslick has ALWAYS been in love with himself.
TRP
Yeah, I saw the tape and I can't imagine what the officers were thinking. Search and secure your prisoner in the vehicle, close and lock the doors, and go about your business.
Ain't life hard enough already? What if the kid bolts out the off side and gets hits by a car while you're directing home movies? You want to fall down and get hurt chasing him, take another pair of pants out on some wire fence? What if one of the other bangers there attacks the prisoner? What -- are you trying to attract an even bigger crowd on the block and have things get out of hand?
Geez -- and the discussion here is about "liability." What a can of worms here.
No lesson being taught to the crowd of laughing bangers outside the car -- at least no lesson anybody's being paid to teach, not at these risks.
Beats me. How the hell do you explain this if it goes bad?
I guess it went bad, huh?
All I know is that video makes me wanna get some patsy sweater, a pair of skinny jeans, and some plastic rimmed glasses, and then maybe I too could sit around in my cubicle under the florescent lighting, watching youtube videos with some hood rat and we could come up with a couple hundred "what-if scenarios"! Those Brave Brave reporters over at the government funded NPR station! Where would the world be without their fearlessness!? Fuck I hate liberals.
Stripped? For this? Seriously?
C'mon guys...WTF
USE YOUR HEADS OUT THERE....
ITS NOT 1990 ANYMORE...
Looked like a possible show-up to me. I thought I heard a bunch of bangers shouting "that's him." Maybe they caught him tagging in LK turf. Let's not all jump to conclusions on this one.
I watched the video and honestly I couldn't see a problem. Now mind you, I'm NOT a liberal so maybe I couldn't see what these feckin libturds THOUGHT they saw.
I wasn't there, so I DON'T know the circumstances.
I won't even begin to speculate like these jagbags are doing.
All I know is that the city is going to hell in a handbasket with these bloody gangbangers!
And to strip these officers??? FOR WHAT???!!!
If this isn't the most insane bullshit...this should never...and I mean never have seen the light of day!!
You know what you feckin liberals...keep up with this nonsense waste of time garbage and soon enough you won't have any police and the foxes ( gangbangers and shitheads) will be guarding the hen house/chicken coop!! Where will you been then eh? I'll tell you where...screaming for the police that you got rid of!
These shite liberal ass wipes are what's ruining this once grand department and city!!
I wish the officers involved in this bs all the best and pray that they will be reinstated asap!
signed a citizen who can still tell the difference between bullshit and reality!
Be Safe everyone and remember there is always a camera at every call.
I watched the video and although I have no idea what was going on, neither do the idiot commentators for the program or the people leaving comments. The kid wasn't even handcuffed, maybe they were picking him up and saving him from being beat up. Let's not assume the p.o.'s are guilty of anything until their side of the story comes out.
There's no story here except the doors were open.
What the hell were they thinking? These two officers should be fired for this. They had no control over the situation. They, themselves could have easily become victims of this mob they allowed to form. Ignorant college educated officers - thats the problem.
No street sense just a bunch of book smarts that DO NOT make a good police officer.
A timely show up is perfectly understandable and it looks like there were several people there to attempt to identify the offender.
Remember a few hours after the video was shot with the "victim" in the back was arrested for breaking into a car. Why won't the news outlets report that?
I just didn't see the point. Once the cell phone camera is out, joke's over. Close the doors and it's either 19K or 19P, but either way, it's time to get the fuck out of there.
What you idiots don't understand that it was no joke. The kid told the officers he lived there. When they went there it was an unusually warm day and all the jagoffs were out.It soon became apparant that he didn't live there. They were just doing a transport for another unit that had a disturbance.
Srtipped? Give me a fucking break. A CR number? Well, OK. But stripped? I think I will pull the pin after all. This department has become ridiculous with their cow towing to the newsmedia and the liberals. Oh, I predict that these Officers will be fine and not serve a day or lose a minute of time in the end.
Get rid of the old school thought of getting the felony arrest. Start at the low end, write every mover and parker possible. Fuck those liberal bastards, make them have to go to court and pay fines. Don't argue with them, just tell them to go see the cashier, then laugh as you get paid for the court time.
Bull shit! They did not violate any department rule or any law as seen on the video.
I think people are missing the point. You have a group a gang bangers here who are out of control and the officers don't do anything? They don't tell them to step away from the squad. They don't tell them to move to the curb. They don't ask for a couple of assist cars (whether the District is in a RAP or Backlog Log is another story). What about officer safety for God's sake! These fools, on several occasions, are coming up from behind the officers . We are the police, we need to take control of the situation. Close the doors to the squad, ask for assist, get the fools back to the curb and if they don't listen, lock them up.
I read the comment section. Yeah, I know, anyway...my favorite comment was by a guy that identifies himself as a latin king.
This idiot tells the reader in his first sentence that he is a filthy drug dealing, gang banging member of a criminal empire that commits murders to frighten and control whole neighborhoods. The genius then goes on to complain that the police are the real problem in the neighborhoods.
I'm sure the whole lot of the tattooed, lip pierced, I'm smarter than you glasses wearing crowd was turkey neck shaking their collective heads saying "uh huh. That' right".
Must have been a show up and went crazy is my only guess. If it ain't that, then these two coppers are stupid, which doesnt surprize me as the last several years worth of coppers coming out of that joke of an academy is the reason. This job has become worse than high school. Stupid. This is so stupid, unless it's a show up, I see no other reason to do this.

Ok so how long does it take to do a show up? Once someone said "that's him" as you allege, close the door, get your info from the "victims" and LEAVE!!!
This is nothing more than cocky officers who were abusing their authority because they can. That's the problem with police today - they have no idea now to CONTROL a scene. I am retired, but believe me, no one got that close to me on the street and when I got out of my car, they knew what I was going to do and did not just stand around acting a fool.
CONTROL the street. CONTROL every situation you are in. Let the gangbangers know it is our street and we call the shots. In this video, it was the gangbangers calling the shots.
I'm just glad neither of the officers were injured because they sure put themselves in a position for that to happen.
The female officer from 014 was married to an FTO from 014 that was fired last year.
What for you ask?
He and his recruit were assisting the State Police on the Kennedy Expressway.
The FTO beat a subject and it was all captured, GET THIS, on the State Police Dashboard camera!
WAKE THE HELL UP KIDS!!!
Looks like an innovative "scared straight" policing stragedy, trying to turn the life of a young gangbanger for the better by showing him the error of his ways. These Officers should be commended for their inventiveness.
Stripped????? By Whom???? Acorn???
To the 2 coppers, you let the punk latin kings represent in front of the punk kid and INSULT YOU and every CPD officer! Fuck the 2 of you idiots hope you can get another job morons!
What's the video link?
There's no story here except the doors were open.
Are you out of your f***ing mind?? How unsafe did those officers make themselves? At one point you have an officer by themself on each side of the car surrounded by a bunch of gangbangers. You have an uncuffed person, maybe offender, in the back of the squad car. Does the shooting in 001 come to mind? They should be suspended for nothing else but stupidity.
two more guys stripped for nonsense, banished to unit 376 for a few years--- bye bye button, shield, and id and don't forget to lock your gun up--- you are now a member of the three "c" club ( cripples, criminals, and crazies)--- if both of these guys avoid thirty pending and just get a stiff suspension what kind of policemen do you think they will be when they get back out on the street......
Since when is a taunt a crime? If no crime occurred what's the problem?
I haven't seen the video.
whats the story here? all the cops got to explain is is why the kid is not handcuffed and why the door was left open for so long. this is a typical scene in the humboldt park / westside area a bunch of lowlife gangbangers making a scene. to strip these officers over just this video is disturbing. if i had a nickel for every time a situation didnt go exactly as planned i would be donald trump
stripped because youths taunted someone in the car? only because it is on video that this even matters.
Remember that boys and girls, every phone can record your every action.
Big fucking deal!! They kept the doors open. Wow!!! What is this department coming to?
Everyone loves Hillard, right?
Well get this, these coppers committed the ultimate no-no under Hillard. They are in the news.
Hillard will recommend firing both before he leaves. You can bet your ass on it.
Don't know what the whole story is on this one, so I won't pass judgment. However, how about officer safety? Too many bangers surrounding these officers and coming too close to personal space for my liking. One too many times these bangers were right behind the male officer, within close proximity to his weapon as he was leaning into the vehicle.
Watch your backs out there!
Don't give anyone the least bit of scrutiny that may cause you to have to answer to,do your job, do it right,go home safe.Gonna teach somebody a lesson,don't let that backfire and teach you a lesson,be accountable for everything you do while working and have good reason for what you do in case you have to answer to it.
There are reasons why there are rules about how things are done. Follow those rules and when the video gets released there will not be an issue.
Why do some people just insist on doing their own thing? The rules protect you as much as any one.
libtard so-called reporter in the cubicle says:
"well, we don't know how the video ended"
But what? we'll leave it up to other libtard fantasy writers to finish the ending?
citizen here saying there is NO story.
re-instate the leo's at once.
If Penny was on that video, she would have been promoted again!!!!
Wow is that kid lucky, you can see that if wasn't for the two and only two police officers, who seemed to outnumbered in that scene, that (maybe) gangbanger young man would have been torn to pieces. I hope that young man will stay out of areas that are so dangerous, even if that means meeting his girl somewhere else. Thank the Police again for doing their job.
HOO HUM.
TWO CLARK KENT WANNA BEES
SOO SCARY THE UNHANDCUFF KID TREMBLES.
ANY ONE HEAR OF A SHOW UP...
SCARY KIDS IN OVER SIZED CLOTHES TALKING SMACK AND CARRYING THEIR I-PHONE INSTEAD OF GUNS.
Standing around with a crowd yelling King Love right in front of my face is enough to do something, and it would'nt be standing there in a LK photo shoot. That was totally mishandled. Stripped no, flogged yes
I am disappointed that SSC is so critical of these officers including how this post is titled. Nobody knows what happened but in being so critical, its like your buying the story of the community activists that the kid was being dropped off in rival gang turf. Does everybody also realize that the stripped officers also turn to OUR blog- this blog- for support and encouragement in what looks to be become a long ordeal. I know both officers and they are very hard working. So let's show them some support. After all as we learned with Cozzi. it could be any one of us accused tommorow!
The "reporter" even says after the tape is over that the kid was not let out of the police car. To me it looks like a show up. The officers probably conducted a showup and for the safety of the suspect, he remained inside the police vehicle instead of being made to stand outside closer to the rivals.
From the looks of this, it seems like the officers were doing a Chicago version of "Scared straight - Humbolt Park Version".
Someone is in the back seat of a squad. People gather to look at the individual and the ubiquitious camera captures the event. I am at a loss to understand what laws, rules, regulations, or even common sense were violated. How about an explanation without the vitriol.
Good thing this department now requires a college education!
Another case of too much college, not enough COMMON SENSE!!!
no physical injuries so couldnt they just reprimand the officers & put them back to work?
I'm not quite certain why the liberal "reporters" weren't upset by the fact that gang members were threatening violence on another member of the human race.
Don't they care about that? The only problem they saw was in police procedure? Why isn't there a problem with the fact that that kid couldn't walk in a neighborhood without the fear of bodily harm or death?
Is that OK with you liberals? Or do you really think that those people are just "animals" defending their turf and acting out in the manner you believe is normal for them? You won't call them on it, though, because you are gutless and racist.
Liberals are the biggest racists of all time. They are the children of slave owners who work at keeping racism alive. They like to say things like, "persons of color" so that they can be "politically correct." Aren't they just really calling people "colored" when they do that? Just like your racist daddies did, right college boys?
They make me sick with their pansy limp wristed mannerisms and talk. They are born bitches. Those thugs know it, we know it, and most importantly, they know it. The thugs are just taking advantage of bitches and laughing.
Now go to your cocktail party and tell all the rest of your liberal pansy friends how you helped the colored people who were too stupid to help themselves. Whoops! You meant persons of color.
I'm really beginning to wonder if its time to go to a zero tolerence department. No breaks on anything, especially the media.
Just another example of the new baseball cap wearing generation of police officers.
Stand around while a bunch of assholes act like a bunch of assholes.
BE THE FUCKING POLICE !!!!!
Tell those pieces of shit to beat it or call for a wagon.
This is what passes for police work these days.
Why don't we just call it natural selection. Would you want either one of these officers anywhere near a situation that you might be involved in?
I wouldn't.
Remember, media only reports what they want you to know...when there's no REAL news they make s**t up...you know, stuff that requires no critical thinking at all...'cuz they do that for you.
Female cop is complete idiot. Always has been.
To It's not 1990 anymore and all the rest:
This type of thing was not acceptable then either. There were two incidents back in '91 or '92 where this type of thing happened. Several officers were implicated and a couple even got fired. Supposedly the ones that were fired were the wrong officers, and the actual officers involved ended up getting buried in desk jobs for the rest of their careers. Bottom line, this was a stupid move. Remember, there are cameras everywhere. There probably isn't a single instance during your tour of duty where you aren't on camera in one way or another. Be smart. In the immortal words of Jim Mauer, "Life is hard, it's harder if you're stupid."
It makes no difference WHY the kid was in back of the squad car (whether he was being taught a "lesson", was there for a show-up, to scare him, etc) the point of the matter is that it was a very poor decision by pos to keep the door open once the recording started. Their poor judgement has led to their suspension. Is the suspension warranted?...probably...but for no more than a week or at least until this dies down. Simply put, these pos joined the group of other pos bringing a bad rap to the department. As if we needed any help.
As a cop, I can not condone this type of behavior. These officers should have known better. Plus it's a safety issue for them and the subject in the back of their car.
I am shocked that you, THE POLICE, see nothing wrong with that video. Let's go over a few things so that you ROOKIES in your special phone call units might learn something here.
1. Officer Safety. How many times did each officer turn his/her back opening the officer up to either attack or exposing their weapon.
2. If it was a show-up since when do you walk up the offenders or victim to the squad and open the squad door and allow pictures/video?
3. If they were saving the kid from a beating why open the doors and sit there allowing threats to be made at the victim/shitbag without taking police action?
4. Yelling "KING LOVE" must be ok in 014 now. The officers didn't seem to mind.
5. Throwing up gang signs in front of the PO's. The po's did nothing.
6. The what if: the little shitbag/victim gets killed later that night. The PO's parading him around allowing video and pictures must of really helped the other shitbags ID who to kill later that night.
7. Obstruction of Traffic, mob action, assault or a reackless charge on at least one of the other shit bags walking the street acting like a shitbag would of been nice.
We could go on and on. Should these officers get fired? No, it's called a mistake.
The point is simple.... these officers left themselves open to a shit load of possible things that could of gone wrong and allowed numerous violations to go unpunished right in front of them.
Would any of you, in any situation, allow what happened to happen? That is your answer.
I wish the officers the best of luck and hope for us and themselves- they realize what they need to work on as PO's.
God Bless
FREE BILL!!!
Roe Conn is a dick-less dweeb trying to stir the pot. Nothing wrong in that video, nobody got hurt. Just a freedom of expression is all that was. It occurred outdoors where there is NO right to privacy.
I understand that we should always work as if we are being filmed and everyone has a camera but what exactly did they do here that is so wrong? Did they beat the guy or let others beat him? No. Some people were yelling bad things at him? So what, sticks and stones. This doesn't fall under any 30 day pending rule 14 violation that I can see. So what the hell is everyone all flustered about? I don't get it but it should show us all that if we are taped the city will,once again, and true to form RAILROAD the officers. I can see this being more fuel for the fire to guys and girls on the dept. to say; "Enough is enough, I'm done, no more proactive work, you can film me all you want handing out a report to whomever wants one but that's all you're gonna get out of me".
You see Ald. Maldonado on T.V. ? What a POS. Don't forget he along with several other politicians lobbied for the release of convicted cop killer Ronnie"Mad Dog" Carrasquillo. He should be ashamed that his ward is full of gangbanging pos. No, he caters to them. We need a fucking revolution to rid ourselves of all this scum
They will both be charged with civil rights violations.
Fired? They are both going to federal prison.
Their only option is to quit now and pray that the AUSA losses interest in them. Otherwise, you'll be starting a letter writing campaign for two more.
Let's have some fun out there!
Weeeeee I love being the police, it's soooo much fun. I like to play and tell jokes and make jokes and make fun. Being the police is my super special fun time.
One more example that there are way too many idiots on this job. We cannot escape them.
They're are lucky that none of these shitheads reached in and beat or shot at that kid while he was in custody.
This department has become ridiculous with their cow towing to the newsmedia and the liberals.

How do you tow a cow?
Umm, I think it's kowtow.
Otherwise you'd need a tow report.

"To the 2 coppers, you let the punk latin kings represent in front of the punk kid and INSULT YOU and every CPD officer! Fuck the 2 of you idiots hope you can get another job morons!"
********************************
I hate to see another copper jammed up for stupid stuff BUT-- I have to agree with what you say
For all you idiots who think nothing was wrong with this video, WAKE THE FUCK UP! You have gangbangers representing in front of the police and absolutely nothing was done. No call for more cars, maybe a dispersal order, or get this maybe start locking people up. This department really has gone down the tubes. What happended to the Shakespeare District i knew in the early 90's? Guaranteed that shit wouldnt have happened with the police on the scene. And you idiots are blaming the liberals? Look in the mirror and blame yourself if you think the police in this video acted in the correct manner. Just disgusting and shameful that this is was now the Chicago Police Dept has become. 20 on and 6 to go and can't wait!
It is interesting that none of those that have commented have given any thought to the other people that live on this block. They have to put up with this bullshit outside of their windows. It's bad enough to have a gaggle of shitheads on the block screaming and yelling. When the crowd is being encouraged (or at least not discouraged) by the officers, it makes it all the worse. Shit like this encourages the exact behavior that we battle every fucking day.
wow. a large percent of you leaving posts here are the reason I don't fucking trust the lot of you..I can bet those bashing "lack of judgment" DIDN'T grow up here in the city..Didn't get chased by gangbangers.. beat up.. rundown by a carload of Royals..had to fight to and from school because every other gang thought you were a rival..had them sit on your porch talking on how they were going to burn you out..and why didn't I just join up..cause my dad was a cop and ALL bangers are the enemy. these Fucking kids need the shit scared out of them. they need to be fucked with ALL of them..but a few of you fucking pussies wont even get out of the car ..but you'll MF another copper..what a JOKE this job has become.Guess who..011 14 years

Well said Officer. And spot on. There is alot wrong with this video. OFFICER SAFETY IS FIRST AND FOREMOST. Watching the video several times there were plenty of opportunity for these two Officer's to be injured or killed.
The playing field has changed. OLD SCHOOL is dead. Camera's abound, and making a stupid move like this, putting your yourself and your partner at risk for a show up is ridiculous. An old partner and old timer Vinnie M once said, don't worry you'll get him another time. He's was so right. THEY ARE NOT WORTH OUR JOBS OR OUR LIVES. Never let your EGO'S get in the way. Yes the old days and the war stories these young bucks heard made an impression. Someone forgot to tell them those days are LONG GONE, never to be seen again.
I don't believe they should be stripped either. I think she should be schooled a bit more on safety, simply shielding, distance, movement, never let anyone come up behind you, or that close to you or the squad. Gang signs thrown in my face as they are representing. MOB ACTION and extra units called in. These two Officers are lucky they got away without a scratch. The department will make sure they get beat up now unfortunately. Reprimand YES, Stripping NO!
Stay safe out there
Just another example of the new baseball cap wearing generation of police officers.

Another arm chair QB. Times have changed Chuck Norris. You call for a wagon..they send you a 99 unit. Good luck with the back-up also, when there is a backlog every night. As far as you locking them all up, what for, DC? Not since the 1990s. The WC would laugh you out of HER office!
Why are these guys at fault for one asshole laughing at another. Who cares. These assholes have been laughing at each other since the beginning of time, so have we. With this piece of shit in the White House is now making it against the law to laugh. What the fuck is Hillard doing, He is falling back to his old mode of suspending officers before cause. If it was against the rules to laugh at assholes I would be doing life with no parole.
this is what happens when you get someone with 5 years on the job who doesn't know shit--- locking up shoplifters doesn't make you the police--- the husband of one of these coppers in trouble was an fto who got in a jack pot with the isp--- he went out onto the expressway responding to a call for assistance and caught a bad beef--- say what you want about the guy, I know him and he was one tough mother fu%%er and never backed down from any gang banging pieces of shit....
These two officers should be fired immediately no question asked they put this department to the lowest how could they call themselves officers they young man should have never been put in that dangerous position who is supervising these officers sgts lets start doing our jobs and protects your troops ,i do believe this is a problem of too much education and not enough realization of life we need to open this department to any one not just 2 years of college .
you are fired officers you must not have family cause if you guys did they you would know not to do this stupid shit where the hell are the sgt's who are to be watching there officers supervision is lacking .

This just reminded me of our local tow company in KY.. They call them wreckers here... Well the name is Camel TOW....... Their slogan is, there is no tow like a camel tow!!!! I almost spit my coffee out reading that!!! hahaha
That was just a show up and he was positively identified from all the comments from the gangbangers
We should look at who is doing or authorizing the PO's to be stripped. My understanding it is Deb "I fucking hate police officers" Kirby back at it. WOW she is one of a kind!!! How is that SOS case going you fucked up beyond all repair. Good thinking on that one.
"cow towing"? Who's towing cows? Is Lincoln Towing trying a new scam now?
Big fucking deal!! They kept the doors open. Wow!!! What is this department coming to?
3/24/2011 09:31:00 AM
The big deal? Maybe a bunch of Kings doing whatever they want and representing in front of uniformed officers who stood there with their akward little smiles.THATS what the big deal is.Do I give a shit about the JO in the back seat? NO! But now I spelled it out for you.If ya didnt see the problem before...now you do
I don't know what is worse. The actions of these officers or some of these comments condemning them. Brothers in blue my ass. You say worse shit about each other than any liberal journalist wannabe ever can.
that tape is old, that is video from J-fed's "gang summit".
you are fired officers you must not have family cause if you guys did they you would know not to do this stupid shit where the hell are the sgt's who are to be watching there officers supervision is lacking .

thank you, revrund, for your succinct input on the subject.
If it was against the rules to laugh at assholes I would be doing life with no parole.
3/24/2011 06:38:00 PM
yep, assholes do look pretty funny up close and excessively illuminated.
For what's it's worth, I'm generally a liberal, yet my reaction was fairly close to some of the moderate commenters here -- I didn't see that the kid was in immediate danger, so I couldn't really see how this video tied in to one of the point the radio people were making - about dropping kids off to get beat up by their enemies.
But it looked like cops who were encouraging Latin Kings to get crazy rowdy, which seemed like a really dumb idea. I don't understand what the officers had in mind. Whatever it was, they failed badly - losing control of a situation to a bunch of jeering gang-bangers.
I understand the defensive "fuck the liberals" reactions. Everybody gets touchy when outsiders seem to be judging you. But do those of you bitterly complaining about liberals really think this was good police work?
>this is a typical scene in the humboldt park / westside area
I lived near North Ave. & Humboldt Blvd for 7 years and never saw anything like this. It's not typical. I believe you that it happens, but when officers encourage it to happen and suggest that it's the behavior they condone, that's a problem.
>Why isn't there a problem with the fact that that kid couldn't walk in a neighborhood without the fear of bodily harm or death?
>Is that OK with you liberals?
No. It seemed pretty horrendous. Somehow, I don't think that's going to change your misperception of liberals, but it's worth saying. Yeah, the behavior of the gangbangers was incredibly bad, while the police action seemed merely unprofessional and showing poor judgment.

I have no idea who the fuck you are.
Oh, and I don't care.
And neither does anyone else.
I do agree with you though.
"It is interesting that none of those that have commented have given any thought to the other people that live on this block. They have to put up with this bullshit outside of their windows."
Bullshit.
utter bullshit.
hell with the people on the block. Perhaps if they had enough sense to hoist a pair of balls and take some responsibility and ownership for what goes on in their hood, they wouldn't have to suffer in the conditions.
you are fired officers you must not have family cause if you guys did they you would know not to do this stupid shit where the hell are the sgt's who are to be watching there officers supervision is lacking .

Soooorry Pal..
I am a sergeant.
I DO NOT babysit 25 year old men and women who are to STUPID not to know when they are breaking the law.
I hope the food will be to their liking in the federal penitentiary.
The big deal? Maybe a bunch of Kings doing whatever they want and representing in front of uniformed officers who stood there with their akward little smiles.THATS what the big deal is.Do I give a shit about the JO in the back seat? NO! But now I spelled it out for you.If ya didnt see the problem before...now you do

Perhaps a little R&R to put the "problem" in perspective.
Those two officers should have just went to sleep like the air traffic controller
Another arm chair QB. Times have changed Chuck Norris. You call for a wagon..they send you a 99 unit. Good luck with the back-up also, when there is a backlog every night. As far as you locking them all up, what for, DC? Not since the 1990s. The WC would laugh you o..
You're a fucking pussy. Go work the desk or lock up if you don't know how to be a police officer.
Is a DC as far as you've gotten in the ILCS?
Yeah. I " arm chair quarterback" I think you mean "Monday morning quarterback." I do so to maybe open the eyes of these "salty" coppers who think they know everything really haven't seen shit on this job.
Start planning a benefit for your buddies.
i ll say it...you re supposed to control street theater...not play a part in it.
Great way to build the morale of the department. Immediately strip officers for this kind of crap. Get a CR and let the process begin, but stripped? Rahm and Terry, this is your idea of building morale

There's no misperception of liberals at all. Most are good hearted but with no plan to change anything.
They don't really understand that some problems don't have easy solutions. They want to live in a world where all people are like them; good natured at heart. That's not true. There is evil in this world.
The rest are devious and evil and want nothing more than to see this country turned into a totalitarian socialist dictatorship with them, as the intellectual elite, in control. They use the above.
Sorry, but if you read your history, you'll find it's quite true.
Has nothing to do with liberals, cameras, air traffic controllers, expressways, slave owners or anything else.
Officers' behavior was unprofessional and situation was ridiculous and completely out of control.
"You're supposed to control street theater...not play a part in it."

...and there it is.
>There's no misperception of liberals at all.
Somebody above me wrote that liberals wouldn't care about the behavior of the gang-bangers, and would think that the truly horrible thing here was what the cops did. That's a misperception. You have a wider anger about other things that you accuse liberals of. Whatever. It's not worth disputing your argument, which isn't really susceptible to factual proof one way or the other.
But the post I responded to was definitely a misperception.

I could not have said it better. Let me guess - you have more than 10 years on the job.

Factual proof is available for those inclined to search. Read Dinesh D'Souza's "Illiberal Education" and "The End of Racism" and then get back to me.

Everybody is touchy about the two liberal turds and the "local." They are trying to portray this as an institutional practice when what they are claiming is an institutional practice is not even occurring on the video. This has caused, for some unknown reason, a fucking outrage leading these two to be stripped. I the video shows some shitty police work, and by shitty police work i mean letting all those walking turds surround you and representing the king nation.
These two brain dead coppers should probably be given some serious remedial training and put on a midnight desk or some gig so they don't hurt themselves and fucks up their live enough they fucked up. Stripping these two for this is pretty outrageous and the three liberal fuckheads pretending to know anything about police work, laws, or the police departments policies is laughable.
The fact that the department is know acknowledging and taking their input as if it means shit is the reason for the backlash against liberal fuckheads.
