HUGE Day of Posting

So much to cover, so little time. How about a Quick Hits to catch up? This could be the start of something big - "big" as in a lot of businesses relocating outside of Illinois' high tax rates:
  • CME's Executive Chairman, Terry Duffy, said the company was exploring a potential move of its corporate base, after Illinois earlier this year sharply lifted the corporate tax rate paid by the Chicago-based exchange company.
It would be a paper move mostly, but still would affect the state budget in a depressed economy. Way to go Quinn!

======

This is a start:
  • City employees — from aldermen on down — would be subject to random drug and alcohol tests under a New York-style crackdown proposed Wednesday by the city’s two most powerful aldermen.

    Finance Committee Chairman Edward M. Burke (14th) and Pat O’Connor (40th), Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s City Council floor leader and chairman of the Committee on Audit and Workforce Development, say random testing would minimize “errors in judgment” by city employees on duty.

    “Chicago aldermen should be included . . . because elected officials should lead by example,” Burke said in written statement.

Now how about following Florida's lead - anyone who receives government money in any form ought to drop a sample....and not just on Burke's desk. A testable sample.

======

And while everyone is looking at downtown, children are catching bullets in the neighborhoods:
  • Two girls, ages 2 and 7, were shot in a park in the Northwest Side Avondale neighborhood Wednesday night.

    Emergency crews responded to the shooting in the 3500 block of West School Street at 7:48 p.m. and found two injured children, Fire Media Affairs spokesman Richard Rosado said. Both were taken to Children’s Memorial Hospital in serious to critical condition, he said.

We blame the heat. If only the parks had been shut down the way the beaches were closed today, none of this would have happened.

======

There's just too much to cover. We're throwing up around seven different articles today, not a record, but a busy day none the less. Comments are heavier than normal (almost 500 yesterday alone), we did 22,000 hits Wednesday, we passed 15,000,000 total visits and we've been linked nationally by a couple of big blogs. So thanks once again to all our readers, lurkers and commentators. Stay tuned boys and girls.

Ok enough is enough reintstate tru or msf. The dept needs a large moblie unit in uniform and marked squads that can be deployed to combat violent crimes. In my district there were over 28 people shot and 2 homicides in less than a week. So much for all the extra bodies being held down on paper jobs. Im sure my commander is gonna get dumped because the command staff has to save their own ass. Other districts are facing the same trend. Bottom line is we need more proactive and less reactive police work this is not nypd we don't have 40,000 officers and chicago is quite a bit larger than newark. Oh while your at it hire more officers we are budgeted for 13,500 so we are down by almost 5,000. Cut budgets from other areas not the police. The fd is fully staffed aren't they? yet they don't ride on 50 percent of the fire jobs called in the police get sent instead. 21R ride with fire on this asthma attack because they are affarid to work in the ghetto. Put a shot gun on each truck and call it a friggin day.....

ladies and gentlemen,
we need to listen to these companies and follow their direction. lets just leave. as a police officer theres plenty of other places that actually care about their police, have pensions and let you do your job. you can give the excuse "well easier said then don"e but no that wont fly. Theres always a million reasons not to do something. in due time i will do something which is pick up and leave. then when im on patrol somewhere i can actually do my job i can sit and read and post haha's to all this bullshit in here.

the more illinois and chicago residents just sit back and take it in the ass the more the big shots will keep doing it.

if not for yourself then think about your family. think about getting a better life for them elsewhere. i have come to terms i will have no pension, no future, nothing staying here, its time every other young buck does to. Even for the old timers theres still a chance. There always is. If you want to do something you will find a way if dont you will find an excuse.

i have already researched other departments, taxes, pensions, living situations out of state and its absolutely crazy to see that the way we live & work here IS NOT normal and IS NOT GOOD. Give your kids a chance, give them a future and get the hell out of chicago and illinois.

Normally i might feel bad posting about how great my life will be when i leave here but honestly it will just bring me joy braggin about it. One day my kids will thank me and say Dad im really happy you didnt raise us in such a fucked up shithole.

I'm sure someone out there may rebut this with a "im a quitter" bullshit but lets get real. I'm not quitting on this state or city, it quit on me many years ago and im powerless to get it moving. The people that have the power to fix things wont, they just want their money

They blew all of the corporate portion of the State tax increase on bribing companies not to leave Illinois already


===clip WSJ ===

Illinois gained nationwide notoriety in January when Governor Pat Quinn signed into law a 67% hike in the personal income tax rate while lifting the corporate tax rate to 9.5%, the fourth highest in the nation. How is that working out?

The good news is that corporate tax receipts in Springfield are up by about $300 million amid the economic recovery—though the state comptroller's office announced in April that the state still faces $8 billion in unpaid bills. The bad news is that, according to the state's Department of Commerce, Illinois has already shelled out some $230 million in corporate subsidies to keep more than two dozen companies from fleeing the state. And more are on the way.

The ink was barely dry on the new taxes before major employers announced their unhappiness....

Nice Illinois scam with a missing matching contribution theme.

Bright Start contributors angry over missed matches

une 08, 2011|By Monique Garcia and Jodi S. Cohen, Tribune reporters

The state's Bright Start College Savings Program has come under fire again after a promotion promising a $250 match for contributions made this month quickly ran through its budget, leaving families feeling they were duped into adding money to their accounts.

The Illinois treasurer's office said Wednesday that it is investigating why a website touting the promotion was not updated for nearly 24 hours after it had paid its limit of 2,500 bonuses. Participants complain that they continued to put money into their Bright Start funds expecting the match even though the program was finished by 3 p.m. Friday.

Some said they didn't even get notice of the promotion until Saturday — a day after the matching funds were gone.

Hang in there, SCC! It is not at all surprising that your reader comments and hit counts are up dramatically. With Chicago under attack by South Side savages---and with evidence suggesting that they are now starting to plunder and pillage in the suburbs---law abiding people of all races/ethnicities are hungry for the straight story (which, of course, we often do not get from the Loop newspapers and TV outlets, partly because they are politically compromised and partly because their reporters/editors are just plain dumb).

The SCC blog's adherence to basic journalistic principles of honesty and accuracy has struck a chord. So it's little wonder that in this time of crisis, SCC is in "breakout" mode, growing rapidly in size and power---from a great little blog read mostly by police to a great big blog read by POs, law abiding civilians, elected officials, business leaders, members of the news media (local and national); and yes, even the gang chieftains.

This presents a challenge to you, I know, both logistically with the increased traffic, and perhaps otherwise with powerful interests trying to reach you and co-opt/compromise you. But stick to your guns, SCC, and may this blog stay straight and independent forever!

Drug and alcohol testing of ALL elected officials including state legislators is long overdue. During the George Ryan and Blago trials it became clear that drugs, and alcohol were abused by lobbyists and legislators, while they squandered billions of our tax dollars. There are too few restrictions on those who run our government at all levels.

The Cancer spreads, and it has been growing and festering over the course of 60 yrs of public aid.

Liberal solutions to this cancer is to add money, blame the system, and ignore the problem.

The cause of this problem: the breeding that goes on with public aid and unchecked ghetto childbirths.

Criminals are having 5-10 children and society pays for these kids via public aid programs.

That's 4x the child birth rate of the working class.

This problem is a result of half of century of public assistance.


First they bred in housing projects like a malignant tumor, THEN Daley tore down the projects and essentially spread the CANCER to the entire Chicagoland- suburbs included!

And another attack. This city is going down the shitter. No mention of race. Conveniently.

From the Trib:

A man was mugged on a Red Line train on the Near North Side this morning by five people who punched him and took his iPod and some cash, police say.

The 35-year-old man was on his way to work from his Evanston home when he was attacked by the group at the Chicago station, according to Police News Affairs Officer Laura Kubiak.

The man told police he had seen the group harassing other passengers before they robbed him. A woman in the group grabbed his iPod and, when he tried to grab it back, one of the others blocked him and punched him in the mouth, Kubiak said.

The assailants were described as being 15 to 25 years old. Four of them were males.

This morning's attack followed a Wednesday afternoon mugging at the Brown Line stop three blocks away, in which a group stole a male victim's wallet and iPhone. That group comprised four to six people, with one of them possibly female, police said. But police couldn't say if the same people were responsible for both attacks.

What kind of filthy dirtbag pushes a woman and a baby down the stairs? :( It's heartbreaking. Keep up the good work police officers. The citizens of Chicago are on your side.



At approximately 9:13 p.m., a woman carrying a baby, was pushed down the stairs at a North Side CTA train station.

The incident occurred at the Sheridan Red Line station at 3940 North Sheridan Road, near the Uptown, Lakeview border.

Two black male offenders, purposely pushed the woman and her baby down a flight of stairs, said police. Then the suspects went through her diaper bag looking for money, said officials.

It's unclear if anything was stolen and the severity of the victims' injuries, if there were any, was not disclosed.

Both suspects are in their early twenties, approximately six-feet-tall, and 180 to 200 pounds.

One offender was wearing a gray shirt and baggy pants. The other criminal, who has dreadlocks and a beard, was wearing a red shirt and black baggy pants.

A direction of flight was not given.

Police are investigating.

there is no community in the black community.

it's always been a mentality dependent upon feeling/being oppressed, the 'woe is me' sense of unity.

the relatively recent history of being 'victorious' in the effort to achieve 'equality of opportunity' fails to impress those accustomed to a self image of being 'held down' by, in this case, 'the white man'.

it's as if there are no mirrors within the black 'community'.

or, perhaps, it's the vampire phenomenon.

It was in a study posted by USAToday yesterday. I have also seen the number $77B mentioned in the economics news and magazine. The end of the road is in sight. These payments and bennies are just things that polticians have promised the unions, crossing their fingers and hoping that the money would appear from somewhere. There is no somewhere. You can't get it unless you enslave the rest of the population, and that--or something comparable--is probably coming. And you still won't get it.

We are all screwed, and we will just have to do the best that we can, with as much grace as we can.

Woman, baby pushed down North Side CTA stairwell during possible robbery

At approximately 9:13 p.m., a woman carrying a baby, was pushed down the stairs at a North Side CTA train station.

The incident occurred at the Sheridan Red Line station at 3940 North Sheridan Road, near the Uptown, Lakeview border.

Two black male offenders, purposely pushed the woman and her baby down a flight of stairs, said police. Then the suspects went through her diaper bag looking for money, said officials.

It's unclear if anything was stolen and the severity of the victims' injuries, if there were any, was not disclosed.

Both suspects are in their early twenties, approximately six-feet-tall, and 180 to 200 pounds.

One offender was wearing a gray shirt and baggy pants. The other criminal, who has dreadlocks and a beard, was wearing a red shirt and black baggy pants.

A direction of flight was not given.

Police are investigating.

Mob Attack Reported In Red Line Subway

UPDATED 06/09/11 12:55 p.m.

CHICAGO (CBS) – Another mob attack has been reported on a CTA train, this time in the Red Line subway in the wee hours Thursday morning.

A 35-year-old Evanston man was on his way to work on a Red Line train at the Chicago Avenue stop around 4:30 a.m., when five suspects attacked him, police said.

One of the suspects, a female, took the man’s iPod and when he tried to grab it back from her, he was “blocked” by other suspects and then punched in the mouth, police News Affairs Officer Laura Kubiak said. Cash was also taken from the victim, who was bruised but was not taken to a hospital.

The suspects are four males and a female, all between the ages of 15 and 25, Kubiak said.

The victim told police he saw the suspects “harassing other people” on the train, according to the officer, who said the suspects fled and were not in custody as of 11 a.m.

One suggestion to make the blog even more accessible would be to give each story its own page. That way readers can link that particular story to other people, as opposed to the whole blog. As it stands, you have to tell people to read the top post (or 3rd from top, etc.) and hope there aren't any new posts by the time they get here.

Here, the lowdown on Daley's legacy, a mad tangle of "events..."

"Last fall, with the ongoing budget crisis looming, Daley announced a desire to privatize these festivals (just like the parking meters), sparing the city the cost without hurting a big part of the musical culture. Officials issued a request for proposals which sources say was tailor-made for the administration’s favorite concert promoter: Austin, Texas-based C3 Presents, who have a long-term deal to bring Lollapalooza to Grant Park negotiated in part by their lobbyist and Daley’s nephew, Mark Vanecko..."

Keep the existing immensely profitable theater-prop "economy" and the disintegrating forced-at-gunpoint multicultural "society" going as long as possible, while imposing an infinite number of new rules and laws and requirements as you run around with a bucket catching whatever money bleeds out.

"Change" is the LAST thing the Inner Circle wants.

It's the ultimate in disinterested, disconnected "non-residency."

Like authority? Don't worry, anyone anywhere with a prescription for anything -- that means YOU -- is going to be made to answer to whatever 18-year-old (16 with parental consent -- qualifications? HS or GED, that's it) "pharmacy aide" happens to be behind the counter, Walgreens and CVS and other big chains are "partnering" like mad to "improve health care" by interrogation of customers, all sorts of questions previously held between you and your doctor.

Good News from the U.S. Supreme Ct

Supreme Court says fleeing from police in a car can be considered a violent felony
By Associated Press, Updated: Thursday, June 9, 10:06 AM
WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court says fleeing police custody in a vehicle can be considered a violent felony.

The high court made its ruling on Thursday in the case of Marcus Sykes.

Sykes was convicted of being a felon in possession of a handgun in 2008. Officials said he was subject to a sentencing enhancement because of two previous felony convictions, one of which was fleeing the police in a car in Indiana.

Sykes argued his fleeing conviction shouldn’t be considered violent and two federal appeals courts, the 7th Circuit in Chicago and the 11th Circuit in Atlanta, have ruled in opposite ways.

The high court said in a 6-3 judgment that Sykes’ flight from police can be considered a violent felony.

It's the same everywhere. No-one forces them to censor the news. They are the main cause of the problem.

The whole post-war liberal social construct is built on making white people feel guilty about race. If white people stopped feeling guilty about race the whole thing would collapse. If the liberal media told the truth about all the **** that's been going on for forty years then white people would stop feeling guilty about race - or at least not as much. So the media lies and has done for 40 years.

Think about what would happen if the media told the truth and the whole PC construct fell apart. A huge amount of tax money would be freed up, millions of people would have to find a proper job and liberal ideology would take a massive hit. Keeping the lie going has become big business.

The way out is through sites like this and guerilla camera work forcing the MSM to tell the truth.

How many police officers are there really? Per the City database, 14,147. There are 34,218 total employees listed. Search on "police." You get 14,611 results -- including 54 fleet maintenance employees (police motor maintenance), 2 Police Board employees, and 462 OEMC employees with police-related job titles (communications). Subtract these and you get 14,611.

Ok enough is enough reintstate tru or msf. The dept needs a large moblie unit in uniform and marked squads that can be deployed to combat violent crimes. In my district there were over 28 people shot and 2 homicides in less than a week. So much for all the extra bodies being held down on paper jobs. Im sure my commander is gonna get dumped because the command staff has to save their own ass. Other districts are facing the same trend. Bottom line is we need more proactive and less reactive police work this is not nypd we don't have 40,000 officers and chicago is quite a bit larger than newark. Oh while your at it hire more officers we are budgeted for 13,500 so we are down by almost 5,000. Cut budgets from other areas not the police. The fd is fully staffed aren't they? yet they don't ride on 50 percent of the fire jobs called in the police get sent instead. 21R ride with fire on this asthma attack because they are affarid to work in the ghetto.

Caps meeting going on when shooting happened, park, play lot is any a very small area,, police in bouildind, less than 20 feet away from shootng... shooter had to go past parked squad cars, on way to basket ball court.... unbelieveable... this city fucked

6/09/2011 02:17:00 PM

First things first, it should not matter what the race of the children are but if you must know I will tell you they were Hispanic.

Second, the offenders DID NOT drive past marked squad cars, you are 100% wrong. You obviously were not there, so you should probably refrain from commenting. And yes I was there and have all the details.

Also you really need to type this when you are sober or go back to school to learn how to complete a sentence. My guess is you probably came on this job with college (what college I have no idea). As far as this city being fucked I will agree with that, but I also feel with GOOFS like you spewing bad information we as Police are fucked.

A comment from the Sun Times article about some rock star's brother getting victimized by these flash mobs....

"Are you kidding?

You're just itching to record the very first Policeman who blasts a crater in the pavement doing a hard take-down of one of these honor students on your camera phone.

No one is going to risk being fired, indicted and federally imprisoned for hurting an honor student's feelings just because the toilet is overflowing onto your doorstep.

If you want head-knocking to be done, do it yourself. You and your brethren wanted the happy, cuddly, customer service Police. Now you're being affected and you cry for the Police to get "old fashioned."

FYI... How would you like to face the possibility of losing your job, freedom, finances and having your family and good name destroyed on a political whim just because you justifiably "knocked some heads" but the "right somebody" had a problem with you doing it?"

To clarify the shooting route the gangbangers took in 017, they did not go past they field house or marked squad to get to the playlot. Avondale is an angle street that backs up to the expressway. The bangers came though the alley behind the park. They did, however, have to flee past the marked squad on School St. The CAPS officer and 2 civilian caps people did a great job. They car tore off onto the expressway, (right around the corner) and the description of the offenders, vehicle, and LICENSE PLATE was immediately given out while the officer did a great job of calming down screaming parents and little kids. The car was found by 14 a short time later. Everyone there did a fantastic job, p.o.s supervisors, detectives, and CAPS civilians. I was there. The CAPS coordinator was the one who wrote down the plate. He deserves his due. Made me proud to see how everyone came together and got the job done fast and got it done right. As much bitching about 017 that goes on this blog (probably by a few choice dogs) their shit is together when it matters. Good job 017, 014, and A/5.

Illinois is ranked:
50th for fiscal policy;
47th in job creation;
1st in unfunded pension liabilities;
2nd largest budget deficit;
1st in failing schools;
1st in bonded indebtedness;
highest sales tax in the nation;
most judges indicted (Operations Greylord and Gambat); and
5 of our last 9 elected governors have been indicted. That is more than the other 49 states added together!
I find it interesting that our federal government is suing Arizona yet will allow Illinois to be a full sanctuary state since they’ve backed out of the DHS secure communities program and passed the Dream Act, but our government doesn’t sue Illinois because for infringing on their exclusive jurisdiction over immigration. Glass of hypocrisy anyone with their Dreamless Act?

F/W/55 from 025 pissed hot and all was forgiven when she made Det. She was making the rounds with many bosses, oh well.

There are many more just can't recall them offhand.

True, and it is inexcusable, but putting it aside, he was a darn good boss. I worked for him. Not a racist or hater bone in his body and I worked for a number of racist haters. It makes for an absolute shit work life. If there was only one person to ever get a pass for lighting up the cup, I am glad the pass went to Frank Trigg.

Most librarians have a Masters degree in Library and Information Science. Many of them work as archivists. It's not a gimme degree that you get one night a week in room 101 at the academy. I know you're a lot smarter and much more worldly with all them one-baggers and what not, but that doesn't mean educated professionals shouldn't earn a livable wage.

Oh, yeah! He's the guy who had 'eyeliner' tattooed on his upper and lower lids so he'd look better on camera.

He used to disappear for days on end when he was the commander at area one. The office people would move his car around, so it looked like he must be at work, then they'd hunt like crazy for him behind the scenes.

Now Oprah has laid off an undisclosed amount of employees and is leaving the state. Will the last person out turn out the lights?

6/09/2011 08:44:00 PM

First of all, they had a great run. She gave them trips, presents and great salaries.

Second, the layoff notice is just a formality, to ensure unemployment benefits for them and to comply with the law, for her.

Many of them will be working for Rosie O'Donnell when her show starts in that studio.

Well the two year old getting capped in the head and the seven year old taking one in the back right outside a CAPS meeting is a crisis the politicians can use.

Time to up the security detail for another alderman.

Man that could-a been him! Put six men and two cars at his disposal.

Then ..then, get streets and sans to tow the cars on the block and put up another POD cam for the residence safety.

There, that will scare the bastards.

Considering 1707 was by herself, with no vest, and has been working inside for a while, she did pretty good. Her quick action helped lead to the offender(s) arrest, recovery of the vehicle, and MOST OF ALL, helped save the life of the 7 year-old with a collapsed lung. Even a minute of delay and the child would have died. Good job, MJP!

Sorry slick. We need you down south here more than they do up north. So a bunch of uppies get slapped around and the world has to stop. I don't want to go to any more police funerals .

OT: PENSIONS: Just got the FOP bulletin; says they pooled our money with other unions to fight SB512 - THIS BILL HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH CPD. This bill protects only AFSCME employees. The FOP also took our money to pay Donahue and a lobbyist to not move a single one of our bills. There is an AFSCME meeting on June 28 at 205 N. Michigan Ave., Suite 2100 at 6PM. Every one of you should go and listen to the socialist rhetoric that your dues money is going to support.

6/09/2011 04:03:00 PM

short bus, if you bothered to go to a union meeting in your whole career, you might have learned that cpd and cfd could be added to this at anytime. so the unions decided to start fighting this from the beginning, not the end. the likely scenario is that cpd of cfd will end up on something if not this bill.

Trigg was a disgrace to the exempt ranks, period.
Another one (from 007) was Ivory, dumber than a box of rocks. No, neither one of them could be called racist haters, but they were ineffective leaders, which should be everyone's main concern.
ANd as far as 'racist haters' go on this job, blacks have never been in a strong position of power within the dept. Not 30 years ago, not now, even when we've had black Supts., all of them pretty much did the Mayor's bidding. I don't doubt there may have been some higher ranking blacks that may not have felt much love for their white brethren, but it's doubtful that any were in a position to hurt you.
I recall many years ago that Renault Robinson was ordered to patrol an ALLEY because he dared challenge a few 'racist haters' back in his day.
