Monument for What?

Remember when Heroes used to get parades and statues? Monuments are supposed to be grand things. Large, sweeping, majestic pieces of architecture, statues, fountains, etc. designed to inspire and memorialize heroic deeds, sacrifices or individuals. They should move us. Washington DC is filled with shining examples of such: The Washington Monument, the Lincoln and Jefferson Memorials, the National Law Enforcement Memorial.

Chicago has its share of monuments and memorials all over downtown and in most of the larger parks. Sculptures, statues, fountains.

Now someone wants this?
  • Chicago attorneys and activists are planning a monument to memorialize the victims of police torture.

    The group is asking artists to submit proposals for the monument.

    Group members say their goal is "to honor the survivors of torture, their family members, and the African American communities affected by the torture."

    The launch for the project is set for Tuesday at the Hull House in Chicago.

    The launch will include attorneys who have represented police torture victims and a man who says Chicago police tortured him into confessing to murder.
Has anyone actually looked at who these "victims" are? Lifelong scammers and criminals, many of whom were released on technicalities, manufactured evidence and "foggy" memories that surfaced decades after the fact. Many were backed by a university professor who has been accused of offering better grades to students who could come up with "evidence" or witnesses to clear convicted offenders, using a young co-ed as eye-candy to at least one inmate, and who recently resigned his tenured position due to his questionable tactics.

More than a few of their "innocent torture victims" have already returned to a life of crime and are headed back to prison. One of their more famous releases was the subject of a parallel outside agency investigation that concluded he probably did set the fire that killed seven people, including children.

These are to be the subjects of a "memorial" to uplift and inspire us? All we're inspired to do is take a leak on this thing.

The inmates are truly running the asylum.

Nothing can justify the investigative tactics that occured under Burge. It never should have happended. That said, i totally agree with the rest of the post that the offenders are all scum bags and the defense attorneys are all liberal asshats or people taking advantage of things to line their pockets. Burge never should have been taken to trial or sent to prison. The police brass and the mayors over him knew what what going on and condoned it, either openly or tacitly which only encouraged and gave some justification to Burge. In the end, Burge holds the bag and the rest escape with their pensions. A memorial to these scumbags ? Lets put this entire mater to rest and let it be.

Why doesn't someone start forwarding the list of monthly retirements from the FOP newsletter to the media. Simple math will show the 40-50 retirees each month which equals 480-600 last year alone.

'Columbo' star Peter Falk dead at age 83

12:41 PM CDT, June 24, 2011

Actor Peter Falk died Thursday night at the age of 83 at his home in Beverly Hills, according to family members.

Falk was best known as Lieutenant Columbo in the television series "Columbo" -- which earned him four Emmy Awards. He also starred in numerous Broadway stage productions.
He earned two Academy Award nominations -- for 1960's "Murder, Inc" and 1961's "Pocketful of Miracles."

The actor had reportedly been suffering from dementia and Alzheimer's disease.

One of the Lts. received a real shitty schedule, sitting by the front door of the station for an entire 12 hour shift, to speak with and greet any persons coming into the station who would need our services. A fucking Lt. of Police! It was clear that he received this 'plum assignment' in an attempt to force him to resign, but he hung in there, and took on the new assignment with no complaints. It seems Doty got tired of waiting, and simply released him and another Lt. from their employ. This makes three Lts. who have been discharged this year. None of this shit makes any sense. Most of us here have liked to work here, but this stuff going on since Doty joined our dept. two years ago is just madness, making it hard for anyone here to concentrate on just doing their job when everything appears to be unravelling all around us. Everyone appears to be showing signs of heavy stress here now on a daily basis.

Read the news article from the link below. Only Matt Drudge is reporting these incidents. Not even Fox News is reporting them. In the last year there has been an alarming increase of black youths attacking whites and Asians. In New Jersey there were several attacks against Indians from black teenagers. Racism goes both ways.

I've learned the hard way, to never say, "It can't possibly get any worse." Because inevitably, it always does.

So just put your head and shoulders forward and power through.

This is an insult to law enforcement. Because what this monument would say, is that the mass majority of law enforcerment officers are tortureres, instead of recognizing that the reality of it happening is rare.

As an LEO, I'm just sad. It's a focus on the bad. Do these people who want the monument want to celebrate us for the gruesomeness we witness every day?

Didn't think so.

Sad.Misdirected, one-dimensional thinking.

Are these people going to honor the police memorial for the sacrifices?

I didn't think so.

The cult of "victimhood" that currently reigns through parts of our society is nutz.

Even if you believe Jon Burge did what he's accused of, and I do, there's no reason for a monument to his victims.

The true memorial would be making sure that nothing like that happens again in Chicago.

Sorry to see all the shit you are all dealing with back home in Chicago.

I retired & fled to Colorado & if I want to see crime I have to turn on WGN-TV. Don't get me wrong, there is some crime in Denver & other bigger cities, however, in the other areas crime is real news. The killings done here are by 4 legged animals, bears, mountain lions, coyotes, bobcats, badgers, eagles etc....

Crime is quite slow & many people have their concealed carry permits & every home has a gun or more. We have the make my day law which says, if you come in unwelcomed you will be carried out dead!

Crooked politics is usually prefaced with a statement by someone discussing Shicago or Crook County & the scum politicians, lawyers etc.

My Best to all of you & get out asap. Be safe!

Chris Brown is a felon. He's been found guilty of a felony, and is still (I believe) currently on probation.
Chris Brown was highly ostracized by his formerly adoring public, and his record sales (income) plummeted for the past year and half (maybe longer) as a result of the incident you speak of.
He was wrong, and he knows it, and he hasn't gotten away with anything; in fact, he's paid a heavier price for his actions than the average first-time domestic violence arrestee. At some point, life goes on. The guy sings for a living. No one should be denied the right to earn a living based on one incident, even one as highly publicized as his was. I'm sure that whatever award Chris Brown received on that show, it wasn't one that had anything to do with being a role model. He likely wouldn't even place in the top ten if a poll was taken today among black teens as to who they are influenced by.

To the reading-challenged individual posting the request for "a retraction or a CIVIL critique," here you go:

You fall into the typical trap of quoting us partially, instead of in full. We didn't just say "Monuments are supposed to be grand things.... to memorialize heroic deeds," You should have included a couple of [...] and [...] if you are going to misquote us so selectively. Here's the actual post:

Monuments are supposed to be grand things. Large, sweeping, majestic pieces of architecture, statues, fountains, etc. designed to inspire and memorialize heroic deeds, sacrifices or individuals.

See the words "sacrifices" and "individuals"? So right away, your first half a dozen sentences reek of leftist bullshit.

Then there's the unsupported assumption that CPD yearns for the "power to torture the whole citizenry at will." Could you point out the comments that say that? We seem to be missing them. There is a bunch of overwrought trash talking about defiling the "monument" should it ever come into being, but we suppose our readers may have learned that lesson from so many of your fellow travelers defiling war memorials, the Haymarket statue and others. But we don't see anyone actually advocating wholesale "torture" anywhere.

And not to put too fine a point on it, but no one (that means ZERO) has even been convicted of torture or civil rights violations from that entire era. Burge was convicted for lying in a deposition, not torture. No one has ever produced any contemporaneous physical evidence of torture. The only "torture device" ever presented was a construct by the People's Law Office of what a device might look like. Seeing as how they were and remain a communist front group, it isn't surprising they'd know exactly what a torture device looked like.

So lawyers are proposing a monument to a bunch of known liars, thieves, crooks, arsonists, gang bangers and murderers for something they can't even prove ever occurred.

Any we don't buy for a minute you ever served a second in a police uniform. We might as well go around claiming we won a Pulitzer Prize just because we sarcastically have one in our side bar. We also have a medical degree from the U of Chicago and split atoms with our mind.

We aren't going to lose any sleep over your cry-babyism when you can't even read a simple blog post and selectively misquote and twist historical fact to meet your end. You friend, are the living and breathing definition of "asshat."
