Here Comes the Hiring Money

  • Chuck Canterbury, National President of the Fraternal Order of Police, joined Vice President Joseph R. Biden, Jr. on a conference call with other law enforcement leaders to brief them on elements of the Administration's jobs plan which will be laid out by President Barack H. Obama II in a speech to a joint session of Congress tonight.

    Vice President Biden revealed that the Administration will call on Congress to make $4 billion available for the hiring program administered by the Office of Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS). He noted that there were approximately 30,000 unfilled law enforcement positions nationwide and more than 10,000 officers who have been laid off in just the past year.
30,000 openings? And from what we read, almost 2,000 of them are here in Chicago? What does that tell anyone about the state of our Department? What does that tell anyone planning mayhem next May about our readiness?

Hey SCC, this is OT but needs to be put out there.....

In 007 tonight a 10-1 is called as a unit chases a vehicle and shots are fired by the fleeing vehicle at the police several times. At some point the offenders begin bailing out...four in all. Luckily the idiot offenders helped the police out by running over one of their own as he tried to flee. Eventually all four offenders are caught (and rather quickly!), two pistols are recovered, and as the foot chase is taking place the dispatcher relays info that there was a drive-by shooting just a few blocks away by a vehicle matching the description and three people at that scene are shot. I am in a citywide unit and heard the 10-1 come over citywide. I flipped to the zone as we headed that way and have to say it was awesome hearing the units come up one after the other saying...got one in custody. Great job to all the P.O's out there in 007! And Frank Main will never believe the trigger happy cops never fired a round.
Actually made me enjoy my job again for 20 minutes or so.

It is never gonna pass. And it shouldn't pass. Our state and city tax us enough and should have enough money to hire police without begging the feds. Instead, our state and city would rather give money to the non-working welfare abusing individuals instead of spending it on the people that actually want to do something with their lives and get up everyday to do it. This state needs to learn its lesson the hard way. GET OFF THE FEDERAL TEET.

In America we have a unique idea about law enforcement. Our police are civilians and are responsible to the political authority closest to the people – on the local level. This insures that our police will always be responsive to local needs and be loyal to the people they serve.

Now consider if you were a powerful central government – you’d want to control the police in order to enforce your power wouldn’t you ? Consider a country like England for example where they use this model and the local police are under the direct control of their central government. English police are a national police force, not at all like we have here where we have various police forces all responsible to smaller local authorities.

One method our Federal government has often used to wrestle control over something from the States is funding. They’ll get the States hooked on federal funding for a particular thing that the Congress normally has no authority over and then just like a good dope peddler once they’ve converted the sucker into a stone cold junkie they’ll raise the price. In this case they usually add conditions to the funding. Remember how we got sucked into the 55 mile an hour speed limit once upon a time ? Congress simply told the States no funding unless you adopt our speed limit.

If our central government were interested in establishing a police state – they would need to control the police. Maybe this is the first step towards that goal. Get the States hooked on funding then threaten to withdraw it unless they surrender control.

Considering all that has transpired the last few years, I wouldn’t reject this idea too quickly. Who would have thought only a few short years ago that we’d be forced to line our children up to have their sexual organs touched by federal agents in order to fly on a commercial jet ? Who would have thought that the National Security Agency would plug into the backbone of the Internet and be able to read our emails without our knowledge ? All this has happen and much more.

We need to be careful and look that gift horse in his mouth.

Traditionally in Chicago every ethnic parade is held on a weekend a week or so before the actual date they represent. Mexican Independence day has and always been on Sept 16 and in Chicago as far as I can remember they always had a parade. No one should ever forget the events of Sept 11 and I have to agree that having the parade on Sunday is in bad taste, Surely this wasn't thought out by the 26th street chamber of commerce. As a Mexican-American U.S Army veteran It makes me sick to know they chose Sept 11 to have the parade. In my 40 plus years I have never attended the parade on 26th street and I will continue not to go.
God bless America, God bless the Veterans of this great nation and never forget what happened on Sept 11

The COPS program has been going on for a few years. CPD got 50 officers (maximum allowed at that time) in 2009.

Hope your department already applied, as the applications were due in May 2011.

Remember it is a nationwide grant. Podunk departments are operating shorthanded also, just like you are. Good luck to all departments obtaining manpower from these grants... if the money is appropriated and released.

The ugly reality is that we lost 200,000 people, not counting illegal dry wall hangers in the last census. The 2,000 lost officers WILL NOT BE REPLACED. As for next Spring, it is unrealistic to think that Rahm is going to hire someone for 20 to 30 yrs. just to handle a couple of events. All of the officials at both events will have their own security provided by their countries or the Secret Service. Any other issues will be addressed by the Mutual Aid agreements, and federal assistance. We are only getting $2 Million for this event. Face up to the facts; the days of Chicago having a police department of over 10,000 officers are history.

This type of thinking is the reason we have problems! Now before you start thinking I'm some liberal nut job know this. I am a US Marine who was with the 15 MEU, the first Marine unit on the ground in Afghanistan after 9/11. I've sacrificed much and have lost many friends! So allow me to tell you to stop it, it's not that serious! 9/11 is a day nothing more nothing less! If you want to honor and respect the fallen, pray for them everyday, remember them everyday! Don't sweat the small stuff it's not worth it!

9.5 & Co., the wholly owned subsidiary of Daley Inc., will do with any possible "free federal money" from his soul mate, "The Hollow Dude" the very same thing the stuttering prick did... Misappropriate the fuck out of it and still cry "You coppers are gonna have to learn to bleed and do more with less..."

The people of Chicago have a strange tendency to empower, elect and continually re-elect sawn-off, vile, one way jag-offs who are only interested in enriching themselves and their friends while the very people who elected these freaks clap and cheer their utter criminality and debasement.

We wonder if the people of Chicago have gone mad? For the sake of what remains that is good & decent, we hope not.

Look for the demonizing and scape-goating of municipal employees to continue as a distractor from the epic theft being committed by the legacy criminal-political class of Chicago and their supporters.

So ironic that not one Copper, not one teacher, not one Fireman nor any other "peed on peon"(so to speak)has had any say or input into the municipal budget but the public eats up the "It's their fault we're $.75 Billion dollars in the hole" like kids eating up Ka-Boom cereal.

You citizens who haven't fallen for this bullshit REALLY NEED TO SPEAK UP and call 9.5 out on this.

Being the "silent minority" who say "we support you guys" will NOT be enough. Especially when you see with your own eyes how your hard earned treasure is being stolen from you in the form of a back door "realignment" of Police protection from those who foot the bill to keep this raggedy muthafuckah of a city going, to those who contribute nothing but misery.

Captain John Smith of Plymouth Colony had it right... "Work or starve."

If you don't, haven't and never will contribute shit, you really shouldn't get shit.

We need to hold the line... 9.5 has an agenda and he can't take being thwarted.

We note his melt-down after being walked to a standstill by a school teacher...

Hmmm... If there were any honorable intent in the Daley Inc./Rahm & Co. end game, they wouldn't be so desperately frantic and fanatical to push their agenda.

Which means there is money yet for these pricks to steal and they want to seal the deal on it quickly while people are looking at the plentiful distractors being planted by the media for these rotten SOB's.

Hmmm... Where is there a BIG POOL OF "Free" MONEY laying around relatively unmolested?

*Hint Hint*

Nawwwww! Not municipal employee pension money?

Union busting,legislative end-arounds and the piquant odor back alley fuckery regarding protection of muni employee pension monies being under assault?

Nawwwww!

It took many years to get to this point. It may take many, many years to get beyond it.

Unless we elect a government that believes in forensic auditing with extreme prejudice and hanging as fit punishment for the financial treason of public officials, bankers and the like...

"Here Comes the Hiring Money" indeed...

That party was like one of the old-time parties, the kind we don't see anymore. No one was there because they 'had' to buy the ticket. No one was there because their 'spot' depended on it. The event was sold out, because there are SO many people Tom Nangle touched in the course of his 41 years with us.

The affection in that room was amazing. The humor was kind, not abusive. The bagpipers played at the beginning AND at the end. It was a pleasure to be there and you could see how touched Tom Nangle was. As he said, he just wanted to 'disappear', but no one would allow that, and he was grateful they insisted and had the party.

Here's a list of everything else going on this weekend, are they being "disrespectful"?

"Celebrate your heritage (or somebody else's) at ethnic festivals all over the Chicago area this weekend. In Chicago, go German or Mexican. Fox Valley is getting its Irish on, Lombard folks will be chowing down on Lebanese cuisine, and Nordic dancing and crafts will be the "thing" in South Elgin.The German-American Fest celebrate the cultures of Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden with traditional entertainment and Scandinavian crafts and food."

How "disrespectful" it is to celebrate your heritage! How dare all this immigrants think that they matter! It's not like they pay taxes or anything!

But we still go out there and bust our ass. Then we blame the mayor, the city council, the fop yet we never look ourselves in the mirror and blame ourselves. The power to change things belongs to us.

The Ultra-Sneaky RHAMMIE THE COMMIE is not going to hire more than a thimble-full of Cops, just enough so he can say he is still hiring. This is all part of the Communist Scheme of Hussein Obama, Hill-Dog Clinton, Nutsy Pelosi, Biden, Durbin, Whorehouse Harry Reid, Rahmmie, etc. to institute Obamas national Security Force, the Commie-in-Chief talked about. It is intentional, believe it or not. Communistacrats love power and control. They can't control thousands of separate police jurisdictions, so they will gradually squeeze them all out, and
form the National Security Force, which they will control with an iron fist, just like the Nazi's under Hitler took all power away from any local police. History repeats itself, and if you don't believe this, so be it, but think about it......Soon you will work for Fuhror Adolphobama and Rahmmie Himmler, or you won't work at all.

The reason I wanted to post this here is because it begs the question of what is the true value of a union contract or any contract for that matter if the words mean nothing?

Look around..liar loans in the housing market..bankers bundling those loans to create something called a CDS and selling the same loan several times over committing multiple frauds....robo-signing of foreclosures making a mockery of the court system...written laws on immigration that we do not enforce..union contracts that promise one thing and deliver another while union rep's are told F--K YOU....other activities that even violate the constitution of this country.. and the lists go on.

We are not going to get much. It will be split between the teachers, fire, ems and police across the state. I bet we only get 100 hires out of it. That is nothing. And by how the city does it just like the last one a few years ago with the stimulus money. They used it to pay the salary of 50 po's for 3 years which also included the city part of the pension contribution and medical. So at the most 100 hires which is crap! More smoke and mirrors!

I don't trust this fed money at all. I worked at CHAPD and the last academy classes they hired were with federal money and they got a 3 year contract and they were all laid off after 1 year. CHA got permission to do so from the fed. It was part of that 100,000 cops Clinton took credit for.

It would be nice if Chicago got a few dollars to hire some more police though.

Funny how these arrogant corrupt politicians find money somewhere when they want to feed some project to make them look good. Hiring more cops, give underpaid teachers a measly 2% pay raise and another $150,000 for their school if they sellout their fellow teachers and union, and fund any other project that has their name all over it.

Should the Fed give us money it would be great and yes boys and girls crime is down but we really do need more officers.
It would be nice if we could do more agressive preventive patrol rather than run from call to call.
Crime is down in part because we have fewer eyes and ears on the street. 1300 handwavers a day adds up t a lot of missed reports. Now people just doe report some crimes because they have to wait hours for a car. It is not the fault of patrol that calls get in a backlog we can only do some much.
If we reduce the department by anither 2000 officers we can drive the numbers off the chart.

For the life of me I cannot understand how politicians think. Their rationale is all wrong. They do everything they can to piss off the workers while pandering to the groups that don't contribute to society. Imagine if a mayor came into office and immediately funded multiple academy classes until the manpower shortage was a thing of the past, then worked on adding money to the pension fund until it was fully funded, then found money for much needed training and equipment. All this followed by bouncing incompetent bosses and replacing them with street smart people who know the job. Imagine the boost to morale and the pride that would be instilled in the blue shirts. It's not that hard to turn things around. Why do the politicians always do the opposite of what they should?

The 26th amendment (granting the right to vote for 18 year-olds) took only 3 months & 8 days to be ratified! Why? Simple! The people demanded it. That was in 1971...before computers, before e-mail, before cell phones, etc.

Of the 27 amendments to the Constitution, seven (7) took 1 year or less to become the law of the land...all because of public pressure.

I'm asking everyone to forward this email to a minimum of twenty people on their address list; in turn ask each of those to do likewise.

In three days, most people in The United States of America will have the message. This is one idea that really should be passed around.

Congressional Reform Act of 2011

1. No Tenure / No Pension.
A Congressman collects a salary while in office and receives no pay when they are out of office.

2. Congress (past, present & future) participates in Social Security.
All funds in the Congressional retirement fund move to the Social Security system immediately. All future funds flo w into the Social Security system, and Congress participates with the American people. It may not be used for any other purpose.

3. Congress can purchase their own retirement plan, just as all Americans do.

4. Congress will no longer vote themselves a pay raise. Congressional pay will rise by the lower of CPI or 3%.

5. Congress loses their current health care system and participates in the same health care system as the American people.

6. Congress must equally abide by all laws they impose on the American people.

7. All contracts with past and present Congressmen are void effective 1/1/12.
The American people did not make this contract with Congressmen. Congressmen made all these contracts for themselves. Serving in Congress is an honor, not a career. The Founding Fathers envisioned citizen legislators, so ours should serve their term(s), then go home and back to work.

If each person contacts a minimum of twenty people then it will only take three days for most people (in the U.S. ) to receive the message. Maybe it is time.

THIS IS HOW YOU FIX CONGRESS!!!!!
If you agree with the above, pass it on. If not, just delete.

Traditionally in Chicago every ethnic parade is held on a weekend a week or so before the actual date they represent. Mexican Independence day has and always been on Sept 16 and in Chicago as far as I can remember they always had a parade. No one should ever forget the events of Sept 11 and I have to agree that having the parade on Sunday is in bad taste, Surely this wasn't thought out by the 26th street chamber of commerce. As a Mexican-American U.S Army veteran It makes me sick to know they chose Sept 11 to have the parade. In my 40 plus years I have never attended the parade on 26th street and I will continue not to go.
God bless America, God bless the Veterans of this great nation and never forget what happened on Sept 11

Here's a list of everything else going on this weekend, are they being "disrespectful"?

"Celebrate your heritage (or somebody else's) at ethnic festivals all over the Chicago area this weekend. In Chicago, go German or Mexican. Fox Valley is getting its Irish on, Lombard folks will be chowing down on Lebanese cuisine, and Nordic dancing and crafts will be the "thing" in South Elgin.The German-American Fest celebrate the cultures of Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden with traditional entertainment and Scandinavian crafts and food."

How "disrespectful" it is to celebrate your heritage! How dare all this immigrants think that they matter! It's not like they pay taxes or anything!

Are you catching the sarcasm? I hope so cause its pretty thick!

...sorry "sarcasm-person", but you truly are an idiot...here is why - stuff goes on ALL the time in a metropolitan area such as 'ours' (in quotes because I do think your mailing address does not start with 606...)...the reason true-blue POLICE OFFICERS have a reason to be concerned is because WE know what happens for events such as that. When certain teams, groups, etc. have to be moved where they shouldn't be on a day that everybody should be attentive to; especially on the 10 year anniversary of this certain date...YOU are not only "part of the problem" (by thinking you are of utmost intelligence) but a complete hindrance to everything that is correct.

It's one thing to celebrate one's heritage. It's quite another to celebrate the liberation of a country and it's people in an entirely different country.

If you would like to celebrate the liberation of a foreign country, then go there and do it.

No other city or country in the world celebrates The Fourth of July along with the U.S.A., nor should they.
