Stations = Homeless Shelters
We are being told that there is a directive being circulated that states the homeless, with all of their diseases, sicknesses and ride-along critters will be allowed to sleep in station lobbies with the arrival of cold weather. We are also being told this is in regard to shelters falling upon hard times.
Who is deciding this nonsense? And if true, who is going to file the first grievance?

True SCC! Now we can acquire all the diseases from the mutts, what clowns at the top,DTEB fucking liar great idea how's that lie from ARIZONA going ERNIE??
If we're all in this together shouldn't city hall and the aldermen be opening up their homes, yards, ward offices, and downtown offices for them too?
Or do they have "NO TRESPASSING" signs on them?
You heard it here first. The homeless will be allowed to sleep in Rahm Emmanuels childrens classrooms during the evening at U of C. Rahm, you wouldn't mind if your kids get TB, now would you? You see our point.
Regarding the savages on the rampage on 016 and 017, they have been tearing up 012 and 013 also. At least 3 m/1's in a silver Nissan. Pull over every fuckin one of them! Two of the assholes get out and do the stick up with a silver or chrome pistol. Advice: shoot them until u run out of bullets if confronted. To civilians: if you are going to go down, go down in flames and take one of the bastards with you. In area 4 or area 5 it will be justifiable.
Are you kidding me, I will not let them back in no matter who orders me too. Signed I hate those fuckers, xx01
Hey SCC, why don't you file the first grievance?
Wouldn't the hospitals be a better place for the homeless?
Let's redirect them to the fire houses.
That's just fuck-head daley's & 9.5 dancers way of getting revenge on the Working Police !!
Neither one of these guys are half the man their mammas were !!!!!
Shanks wanted the Olympics but all he gets is a Circus!
This is just his "Chuckie" alter ego surfacing.
What does the National Center for Disease Control think of this? To DELIBERATELY expose your first responders to bacteria, viruses, tuberculosis and any number of unknown environmental threats is just plain insane. (Or maybe diabolical?)
Police are the first responders in times of emergency. If the police are compromised, by contagious, debilitating illnesses delivered by diseased people who have taken up residence in the lobbies, WHO WILL RESPOND TO EMERGENCY SITUATIONS?
If anything, the City should be taking steps to ensure the health of its first responders. If we are laid low by disease, the City will be on its knees in times of crisis or worse.
And, civilians, be forewarned; you will now be exposed to all of the above, every time you touch the door handle of your local police station, or breathe the air as you walk in, when you enter to report your car accident, your lost child, your damaged fence, your missing dog, your broken window, your identity theft, your caved-in sewer...
Police stations are not homeless shelters. They should not be breeding grounds for biological experiments, either.
Let them sleep in the firehouses with the sleepy fire girls and guys.....
Sorry Folks, Sh*tter's Full!

The Governor is about to shut some prions and juvenile detention centers and empty out the mental wards because we can no longer afford them.
--clip--
By Monique Garcia, Tribune reporter
September 6, 2011
Gov. Pat Quinn plans to issue layoff notices to thousands of state workers this week as he deals with a budget shortfall he pegs in the hundreds of millions of dollars, a state government source with knowledge of the situation told the Tribune.
The governor also intends to announce the closing of several state facilities, including a prison, juvenile detenti
on center and homes for the mentally ill and developmentally disabled, sources confirmed. Without action, Quinn's budget office says, several agencies would run out of money by the spring.

order read at roll call today, in which the piss bums are now referred to as clients. came from downtown eb, full of hibbity jibbity.
many psyche hospitals and shelters to close.
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/ct-met-pat-quinn-illinois-budget-20110906,0,779655.story
Just start checking them for warrants and they will go away.
Also a beef to OSHA (which can be anonymous) regarding unsafe working conditions, filth disease, vomit, shit etc. will stir the pot.
are they also letting them sleep in firehouses..or city hall...?
We better have hospital grade filters to filter out the airborne transmission of Chickenpox, Influenza, Smallpox and Tuberculosis.... Otherwise don't get mad when a bunch of officers hit the medical.
Or just wait till one of them stabs a person who came in for an accident report and refused to give them money.
Homeless shelters require a business license
If each district Commander has failed to apply for the proper license, incorporation and tax exemptions then he/she is in violation
Nothing new. They've been doing this for years already.
011 has always been a shelter for cold weather, warm weather and just right weather.
Un fucking real! I hate liberals!
Simple solution--not disagreeing though--use the back doors.
No one will file a grievance just like no one will be protesting at the scab schools and no one from the teacher's union has filed in court for an injunction against the illegal negotiations and just like no one....
And even if some one steps forward no one in this corrupt court system will do anything about it and that someone will be summarily dealt with while everyone screams unfair but no one can stop it.
If the post offices are going to be vacant, open them up to the street peeps.
Send these pestilence ridden mutts 'em to every place Rahm & G-mac frequent.
Spread the love!
Why should coppers and their family members be the only ones laid out in the hospital possibly dying from God knows what?
*hack cough wheeze*
May they and theirs be exposed to the same jumpin' heebie-jeebies, ass-odors and crispy critters...
It's only funny when it happens to Coppers, right?
It's bad enough station houses are notorious cancer clusters let alone piss-bums being given royal decree to linger and loiter just for 9.5 & G-mac to get a giggle...
Let's redirect them to the fire houses.
Yeah, they have beds they can use.
if they let them sleep in the fire houses, there will be no room for pos when football begins. why not in the school gyms.
YOU file the first grievance !!!!
Do they still have the colony sleeping year round between the doors in 014?
Careful now, the Yuppie voter was awful pissed when he had to walk over two lepers copulating under a pile of filthy coats so he could report that the Kings set his car on fire.
That place was a real freak show, inside and out!
Male blacks in a silver Nissan robbing people in 016 and 017?
Call newly minted Alderman O'Connor(41) and Alderman Arena(45) and demand that proper resources be allocated to these two taxpaying wards.
Joe Moore's office always calls when one of his "homeless" constituents camps out outside his office.
Maybe someone could buy the house next to Rahms and turn it into a group home.
How about deporting those homeless polish back to Poland? 025 has them everywhere. Just drive down Milwaukee or Central. Many of the abandoned buildings also house the homeless.
Where has everybody Been? The Stations have have considered Warming Shelters for as long as I can Remember... I recall walking into the "Old" 018 Dist and climbing over them up the stairs to get to the desk!
Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, politely please, I actually don't know, but is the problem that the Human Services budget was cut so they aren't making after-hours pickups, or have many of the shelters closed? If the problem is pickups, I think the problem can be solved by; (sorry wagon guys) putting the group of them in the wagon and dropping them at the shelter door. We need to protect our staff and our facilities and this seems like a possible solution. We simply can't have desk crews, officers passing through the lobby, etc. continually exposed to whatever airborne pathogens the unkempt homeless have acquired, in addition to the sustained unpleasantness of the stench that accompanies them. I have heard there is a "note" from DTEB, but someone in the know should check the “General ORDER" that covers utilizing police facilities as "WARMING centers" and not shelter alternatives.
If DHS isn’t making pickups, they shouldn’t be “full”, so any BS that comes out of them not being able to accept the wagon load should be followed up by a supervisor request, license violation case report ( find out what licenses the possess first before moving on this) and take whatever action necessary to ensure they cooperate in taking the homeless off your hands. … just an idea!
Soylent Green is a better answer, you'll see. Bring in the front end loaders.
I'm sure the fop has a plan. It's called silence is golden.
You are more likely to contact Hepatitis 'C' than some of the others including TB. 'C' is a terrible disease that has no cure and only has a test. You can easily take it home and infect family members too. NO CURE.
Just a test that the city health department refuses to give us. The CFD tried to get all CFD and CPD members tested and it was refused.
Time for FOP and 2 to stand up for us. 'B' has a inoculation but "C" is deadly.
plenty of room at 3510 s michigan for them to sleep at also--- cavernous hallways throughout the building with a lot of people to feed them hot soup and give them a massage---
Somebody- Anybody- PLEASE, Explain to me WHY...WHY do, we the CPD, provide PRIVATE schools with security/Traffic control.
Hahaha. Medical section will be busy.
An Email sent to the CDC, some of it plagiarized:
I'm writing the CDC to advise you that the City of Chicago has ordered it's police department districts to begin allowing homeless persons to sleep in the lobbies of all police districts. Now, while this may appear to the Mayor to be some act of kindness towards the homeless in Chicago, it threatens the health of every first responder in the City of Chicago by forcing them to contend with the diseases, bugs, virri and other various infections present on these people and their belongings.
Police officers are front line responders and as such, should not be subjected such diseases, virri and infections commonly found among the homeless such as tuburculosis, body lice, hepatitis, strep, pneumonia and all the other various contagious infections the homeless unfortunately commonly possess.
Beside the fact that exposing front line responders to these threats, the City's order also threatens the health of the general public who needs acces to the police district and will also be required to navigate through seas of diseased homeless people sleeping on the floor or in chairs that they may themelves use at some point, thereby threatening the general public with exposure to the above listed diseases and infections.
Now, while the general public may have the luxury of deciding to leave the police district and lose the ability to contact the police through that avenue, police officers assigned to work in the districts will not have that luxury and will be forced to comingle with these homeless people and be in constant contact throughout their work day. not to mention the fact that each district has personnel assigned to work at their front desk. which puts those people at great risk by having to work amongst these same homeless and quite possibly diseased persons for 8 or more hours every single day.
Needless to say, the threat imposed upon the front line responders and desk personnel having to comingle with these people every day and all day long is immense. This order executed by the Office of The Mayor threatens the health of every police officer working in the district, the health of every person they come in contact with during their day and most definitely the health of their families.
This order threatens to spread the diseases, virri and infections commonly bourn by the homeless to countless others who would otherwise not be exposed to these potentially life threatening diseases. The potential casualties increases with the exposure to the general public.
Police officers are the first responders in times of emergency. If their health is deliberately comprimised, who will respond to emergency conditions in the city of Chicago? The City can ill affod to have any less police officers on the street working in these times. This order threatens not only the health of police officers and everyone they come in contact with, but it also threatens the safety of the public at large who call for police assistance and that assistance arrives late because police officers may now be unable to work due to constant exposure to this problem.
Please intervene and investigate this order by the City of Chicago. There are may other entities within the limits of the City of Chicago that are actually equipped to handle this kind of health situation.
Please advise the City of Chicago to seek alternative shelters that are suited for this situation rather than allow them to subject the City's front line responders, their families, the people they come in contact with every day, and the citizens who visit the police districts in need of help.
We need to have brick and mortar venues to harbor the diseased and homeless. A police station makes an excellent Petri dish to protect the public. It's the Chicago Way.
Looking at the NY Post and it says 48 people shot at caribe fest over the weekend and a total of 98 for the week! My...My...what are we to learn from this?
OT: Visit the Crime in Chicago 2011link for a funny ass parody video of California's EBT card (Our LINK).
OMG. Now you have to step over them instead of arrest them?
I agree with the commentator who suggested that the aldermen should have the same "working conditions", and certainly the homeless should be allowed to at least use Rahm's bathrooms.
Seriously, find a way to circumvent this idiotic plan. You guys have wonderful imaginations....
What a great way for a group of suicide bombers to attack every police station in the city and kill hundreds of POs. Who frisks or even touches the average bum (what we use to call them)? With three or four sets of clothing how do you check for the bomb strapped to their body?
Let them sleep at the crack houses that are in foreclosure.
Let them sleep at the crack houses that are in foreclosure.

Let us know what day looks good to schedule your benefit.
I feel a stint on the medical coming on....
For what it's worth, historically this was what happened. It's in The Jungle, for instance. Back then, though, Police Stations and Firehouses were the only municipal buildings besides City Hall. Police stations were de facto homeless shelters, but the homeless were in cells, not the lobby--every police station had a large lockup area. And there were many more stations (50 rather than 25).
Every day that this happens, each office assisned inside should due a hospitalization case report about being exposed.
Document, this way your estate can sue the city.
What are you complaining about, you'll get 12. Days medical to heal up.
Why keep them in the lobby have them come up and sit in all the empty retiree's chairs. It's a virtual ghost town in our Area!
Off Topic, but a question. I saw the flyer in the station for a vest with outer cover, shock plate and iwb holster from Nate's for $600.
I've been around here for 27 years, but never been to Nate's. Is the place any good? I've heard both good and bad things about the place? Is this a bait and switch? Are there hidden extras in this deal? Is is worth driving down there from Touhy/Harlem?
This will probably be my last vest, I need it to last a while.
Any advice?
Dump them at hospitals, don't let the stinkbums in our house.
How about school gynasiums at night. You have access to showers and could have private charities provide them fresh clothes and a hot meal. They are warm, safe and more spacious. Kids with detentions would be required to assist with setting up cots and preparing food as well as an lesson in what happens when you don't take school seriously.
When you think we got it bad with Bud Kill-again and the P-R Parades, check out the bloodbath at the West Indian Parade on Eastern Pkwy. in Brooklyn's 77th Pct. Savages!
The wounded lady cop's GSW not life-threatening. [See Thee (NYPD) Rant]
Confirm the following statement with someone from 019, but I recall that the Female, homeless offender who disarmed, and shot and killed P.O. Rick Francis, of 019, during a disturbance at the corner of Belmont and Western, used to congregate the Lobby of 019.
God Bless Rick and his family.
We all know that Mental Illness is directly correlated to homelessness. So, essentially, they want our lobbies to be a holding pen for the volatile, mentally ill, potentially lethal homeless people ? In the same lobby the citizens come for service?
I guess that means headquarters is gonna be a homeless shelter too........right?????
The multipurpose room at HQ is a fine facility for a shelter.
The cuts always start at the bottom, not at the top. The decorative paving and landscaping work in front of empty stores continues -- and the city is putting up huge posters promising "$10,000 FOR ANYONE, REGARDLESS OF INCOME" if they can afford to pay for a house.
The city orchestra plays on...
The private firm "City Lights" -- another Daley selloff -- is gonna change every light bulb in the city, too, just for grins.
Watch out for those red knobby things they're putting on all the street corners -- I got tangled in one at Addison and Oak Park. It was actually just about 1/4" of red-colored cement with very thin wire reinforcing rods in it, and it had already crushed under the weight of cars and trucks cutting the corner and all the steel wires were sticking out.
Must be Vanecko And Sons Paving.
Oh -- you can't possibly move the hydrants and street lights back far enough to avoid their being hit by the 55-foot-plus trailers allowed now. They keep welding on extensions, making the containers longer and longer.
Many incompetent drivers bring the rear wheels diagonally across the sidewalks every time they make a turn -- why do you think all the curbs need replacing at our expense? These trucks should be banned from city limits.
Security Breech, where's FOP on this?

Relax Rambo, this is an everyday occurrence in busy Districts in the City.
ALL DEMOCRATS ARE COMMUNISTS SAYS:
The Homeless should be allowed to sleep in Alderman's Offices and City Hall/Crook County Building.
This will be the impetus for more bonafide Illnesses of district patrol officers, which in turn will cause more officers to be on medical leave. It has already happened in other municipalities.
Worse, will be the officer who contracts something from a district squatter, then returns to patrol, whirr he interacts with the citizenry and spreads the illness to them.
Either way, bad idea/outcome.
As long as they cant come in HQ, where I am. It's sooooo nice here. Go make arrests you little beat peons!!!! While youre out there, bring me back some cheese....HOUSE MOUSE STYLE!!!!!
When ISP District 4 headquarters was at 83rd & King Drive we used to have a few piss bums in our lobby during the winter. One of them took up residence on the same chair each evening. After the first day there was a really nasty looking stain on that chair that made it unusable to anyone else. Kind of like he marked his territory. Normal citizens would come in and see this guy and have a horrified look on their faces as they smelled the foul stench in the lobby. The city may need places for the homeless to stay warm, but police stations are not the answer.
That should keep those pesky tax payers away from the CAPS meetings!
Better yet, maybe one of them can get shived by one of these characters.
Comic relief - a liberal turned conservative.
Keep voting Demo-Rat
How would you like to be a citizen waiting to fill out a traffic accident report, seated next to someone who has Lice, crabs, tuberculosis, or some other contagious organism.
We, as officers have all seen this already. Just not on a directed level.
People, they are not talking about a separate area. It is the general-public lobby where these carriers will camp-out.
i agree, our swat teams would get destroyed.... they have no dynamic entry at all. guys with ak 47s and just a little training would shred our swat team. the slow approach and all the cameras and bs waiting games our swat teams plays when entering a house does nothing except give the bad guy more time to hatch a plan, dig in and set up killing fields for when the entry happens. In the military I was on a task force that involved performing countless entries into buildings every day... when not in a combat zone all we did was practice entries and everything is a dynamic entry... this slow and methodical crap that cpd swat uses is just asking to get a swat operator killed. its dangerous and its very stupid. but hey what do I know....
wow...someone is calling out swat!! swat... any response??? i kinda agree with him!
thats because the old sgts and guys who knew what was going on when they were hbt beams(bosse) were forced out by tobias. Bosse was one of the best out there and ran those teams like a well oiled machine. Tobias didnt like him and pretty much forced him to retire. Now, we have the new super swat teams. I must agree with the poster above about the way in which swat enters a building.... They are asking for nothing but trouble if they come up against skilled heavily armed men... the slow approach and entry is only asking for disaster
They've been doing this for as long as I can remember in 2, 12, 11,7. Always had to step over them to get into 7 & 12. And they all smelled up the place, not to mention you'd find them roaming around any chance they got.
Im sure maximum occupancy, in a city/state building has to be adhered to. Its funny how the police as awful as some citizens percieve us to be are now put into positions of providing shelter, are cit trained to deal with the mentally ill, have become taxi's and ambulance services. Taking curfews home, truants back to school, dealing with lawrence hall and the likes and taking all mentally ill citizens to hospitals for eval and treatment. All this on top of our law enforcement duties. Not complaining, just pointing out we have been doing more for less for a long time. All of societal ills the politicians find they are no longer going to provide services for, with our taxpayer monies, is conveniently placed on the backs of the lowly police. Bring it! We can handle it, but dont tell us we dont deserve our pensions, our medical and our sanity.
Sounds like the same incident that occurred in 021, in Chinatown at 1430hrs,NO mention of this at all. approx 2 Weeks ago, Off duty P.O. was in his garage n these Mutts snuck up on him. Same M.O. similar vehicle involved.. We r not safe anywhere, please carry carry always !!!
193-1G (locked up for safekeeping, kiddies) Where are you?
Henny penny actual published this last year in 011. 10 s Kedzie is so close but they wont take them in ,instead they send them to 011 to call and wait on DHS to respond. Which in winter is about 0530. Just in time to tell them the shelters are not taking anyone in, so do it again the next night. I for one see the layoff of the overnight workers from DHS as a benefit since they did nothing all winter long for the past couple of years.
Anyone who been to dirty ass Stroger hospital has seen bums in the winter, sleeping in the door way. I eas shocked, but then I realized I live in a shithole.
Just have the wagon transport them to the Pacific Gardens Mission. Home of the UNSHACKLED!
What a terrible idea. Perhaps they can use the showers in your lockers rooms, too.
I bet there will be some real hardy bed bugs just waiting in the station waiting to hitch a ride back to your house. Why not open some of these closed schools and let the homeless sleep on cots. Hire some private security and provide some hot meals. We can send Billion$ to other nations to help them out so why not help out our own. I bet there are plenty of folks among those homeless who had actual homes and jobs a year ago.
How about using all the banks as shelters for these folks. They made this economic mess happen.
Isn't Daley's town house over on South Indiana empty? We coul put some of the critters there for the winter.
So it Governor Quinn creating a crisis that should not be allowed to go to waste?
Man...closing prisons, detention centers, and mental wards...sure is going to be some party when the G8/NATO people get here.
What is it Tee minus 8 months right.
I think its great foresight, because if Rahm and the politicians get their way with our pensions we'll be looking for a place to sleep.
(OT) great job barry obama another company GONE! First you make the head of GE your jobs czar and he invests 6 BILLION in china and now FORD with this shit? Guess we are good enough to buy the shit they make but not good enough to invest in!
http://www.france24.com/en/20110906-ford-building-1bn-manufacturing-complex-india
How about using some of those old firehouses and poice stations to house the homeless? 015 on Chicago Ave. is a good place for many....
If true. Now I have a good excuse in May for the G8. I must have been exposed to something from the homeless people that were roaming the station boss.
Worked safe city in 003 and you should see all of them laid outside the front door. Most have sleeping bags. There had to be 10 snoozers right outside the front door. Imagine being an out of state visitor and you walk upon that.
Remember to back one another up
Stay safe and write and Free Bill Cozzi
It still amazes me how somebody can openly lie on a job application, affix their name to it and be a boss on this job. Hey Sup. why don't you ask Buckeye Arizona about that or better yet ask them to see a copy of it with his signature on it.
As if that is not good enough for you ask DTEB him how many case reports were made where he was the NAMED OFFENDER.
Double standards to say the least, right?
So when are the meral detectors going to be put in? The desk crew can not spend the entire shift with their eyes on these mentals. Officer safety first right? This is an accident waiting to happen!
I wonder if the newly renovated building where Rahm's detai is would let them in to sleep. If you work in 019 direct them to that location or better yet how about his house, it's big enough.
From the station or from the street...
When one of these mutts, or for that matter anyone goes to the hospital and a P.O. has had contact with them be sure to fill out a HOSPITAL RUN SHEET
If they still exist.
They are the green half-page two part form sets that list all who came in contact with that person.
They go with the E.R. paperwork and are to inform the First Responders if they have had contact with a communicable disease.
They could be used in medical claim or a grievance.
Stay Safe, and keep a BIG bottle of hand sanitizer, rubber gloves and even face masks handy.
Come on! Let them sleep in the firehouse too then, with the water wasters!
Do you know why the politicians cater to this scum at the risk of our health?
BECAUSE IT COSTS THEM NOTHING...
AND THEY VOTE AND WE DON'T...
Even if they list a public park or a homeless shelter or a police station as their address they will vote or some Democrat boss will vote for them.

Um, aren't you able to file a grievance? Don't throw stones if you live in a glass house, my friend.
Why are you so closed minded?
Why should you care if the homeless are in the station .... You should be on the street doing your job!!! You take an oath to protect as a career, like a doctor does or the fire department ..... They don't complain and fold their arms!!
Better the bum in a station than your back porch!!!
Put your fighting, complaining efforts in things that matter such as our contract and retirement/medical benefits!!!
I believe your being distracted by smoke and mirrors purposely to avoid the real issues!

9/06/2011 12:07:00 PM
Agreed. Dynamic entry and measure/countermeasure.Remember always that there CAN BE a countemeasure to your efforts.
One of the weak points Ive SEEN Swat embrace is an "open back door" where as no one is watching the 2nd perimeter. Hell with a decent .308 made quiet I could take all you out. Too easy.
TRAIN! PRACTICE! BE PROFICIENT!
You want REAL swat training,solicit some one from Special Forces. No offense but you guys are too predictable. THAT is a bad thing.
Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, politely please, I actually don't know, but is the problem that the Human Services budget was cut so they aren't making after-hours pickups, or have many of the shelters closed? If the problem is pickups, I think the problem can be solved by; (sorry wagon guys) putting the group of them in the wagon and dropping them at the shelter door.

I LOVE THAT IDEA!
I Filed a CDC and OSHA Complaint on your behalf 30 seconds before posting this.
I know you guys and gals in Blue don't always like us over at Revenue....but this is a situation that should not be allowed, and actually would result in a Class Action Lawsuit if it was any other City Department.
I wholeheartedly agree that this plan should be expanded to include firehouses, alderman's offices and city hall.
What do you say Rahm?
When they show up, just transport them to HQ and let them sleep there.
THe below comments are seen when somebody who has no idea what they are talking about, starts shouting off like they have a clue.
It is obvious that you have no idea what kind of tactics are used by our SWAT team. Furthermore, you have no idea why certain tactics are used in certain situations. And lastly, you have absoultely no clue of what it means to operate tactically in civilian areas within the U.S. when executing search warrants, responding to a hostage/barricade or active shooter.
If you had any knoweldge of our SWAT team you would know that everything from dynamic entry to slow methodical to surround and call-out and everything inbetween is used on these missions based on the known intelligence of the specific mission to execute the safest plan possible for all involved.
You would also know that there are laws, case law, Department G.O's and policy and procedures that guide what SWAT does.
I do sincerely thank you for your service overseas and I am sure you conducted nummerous entries while you were there. The major difference between what you did there and what happens here is that over there you can toss grenades, machine gun fire from a .50 cal, shoulder fired missles, mortars and air strikers ontop of a house if you needed or so desired based on your intelligence. These tools and this type of force (unfortunately) is not available to our SWAT team.
So, please before you start shooting your mouth off about what you think you know. Don't spread your non-truths for the public to view.

You truly captured the essance of 014!
8:00 said, Somebody- Anybody- PLEASE, Explain to me WHY...WHY do, we the CPD, provide PRIVATE schools with security/Traffic control.
Because asshat the student's parents pay taxes just like the parents of the kids at public schools, that's why. No go back into your hole and pout some more.
TRAIN! PRACTICE! BE PROFICIENT!
You want REAL swat training,solicit some one from Special Forces. No offense but you guys are too predictable. THAT is a bad thing.

I'm just still stunned that some who call themselves cops would post on this blog saying they would hide and not go in when the know children are being killed.
What kind of filthy piece of cowardly shit do you have to be to say that and not be ashamed? There are times when sacrifices have to be made, and times when you know that you would lay down your life.
If your child was being attacked would you run? You would fight even if you knew you would be killed. But we actually have pussies that wear our uniform who will tell you that they won't go in no matter what.
What the hell does that say? I'm just stunned that we even have that level of cowardice on display here.
How 'bout the academy as a shelter, it's not used for anything.
Blow me Rahm!! We are sending them to City Hall to keep warm so you can smell some ass when you open the door to your office.
Isn't that what the cta is for?

The Daley crime family got Dems in EVERY ward. Love it.
'C' is a terrible disease that has no cure and only has a test.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
While no diseased piece of shit should be sleeping in the station, the above statement is untrue. Read on:
Q: Is there a vaccine or a cure?
A: Unlike Hepatitis A and B, there is no vaccine. A cure? Sort of. In about 15 percent of people infected with Hepatitis C, the virus simply clears out of the system without any treatment. For the rest, drug treatment is often successful. The most common subtype of Hepatitis C is cured 50 percent of the time with treatment, said Nancy Steinfurth, executive director of Hep C Connection. Other types of the virus are even more curable.
Q: What is the treatment?
A: Hepatitis C is treated with a combination of drugs: an injected drug known as an interferon, and an antiviral pill, ribavirin. The drug regimen lasts 11 months and some people experience severe side effects, chiefly chronic fatigue. Specialists who treat Hepatitis C patients are usually gastroenterologists and hematologists.

When I went to give blood for Mike Ceriale, C was discovered, likely from a blood transfusion occasioned by an accident during my misspent youth. The virus "sleeps" inside of you, and mine was still asleep. There is a point after it "wakes up" where you would be in trouble. I underwent a year regimen of shots and I was cleared. It's not a death sentence by any means.
At any rate, giving blood for Mike probably saved my life.
RIP Mike.
An Email sent to the CDC, some of it plagiarized:
I'm writing the CDC to advise you that the City of Chicago has ordered it's police department districts to begin allowing homeless persons to sleep in the lobbies of all police districts...
-
Feel free to use my words, if it helps to resolve this unconscionable situation.
Wait a brainstorm: Fire Houses have beds and food readily available. All homeless should go directly to the fire houses for shelter from the cold and heat.
OH I forgot to mention fire houses have medical care, beside beds and food, readily available for these poor homeless people.
HOMELESS PEOPLE LISTEN UP THE FIRE DEPT IS OPENING UP THE STATIONS FOR YOU, BECAUSE THEY CARE.
Please advise the City of Chicago to seek alternative shelters that are suited for this situation rather than allow them to subject the City's front line responders, their families, the people they come in contact with every day, and the citizens who visit the police districts in need of help.
9/06/2011 08:17:00 AM
Ummmm..... Have you forgotten who the POTUS is??
Medical, Medical, Medical, Medical, Medical, Medical.
At the first sign of a sniffle, hit the medical, I hate to say it but if they want to expose us to it, then we have to take care of ourselves.
You guys are so lame.
I drive around looking for homeless and then force them to go to the nearest police station. I try to get at least 30 homeless at two different stations every night. The dirtier, the sicker, the better.
On this job, the solution is to feed the problem.
Slow down? Please. Speed up. Make 14 arrests every night for everything and anything. Flood the districts, flood the courts, break their backs. Bankrupt their asses. Lawsuits? The more the better. Good luck getting my money.
WCs hate me. ASAs hate me. Other coppers hate me.
I love it!!!!

How about using some of those old firehouses and poice stations to house the homeless? 015 on Chicago Ave. is a good place for many....

I bet there will be some real hardy bed bugs just waiting in the station waiting to hitch a ride back to your house. Why not open some of these closed schools and let the homeless sleep on cots. Hire some private security and provide some hot meals. We can send Billion$ to other nations to help them out so why not help out our own. I bet there are plenty of folks among those homeless who had actual homes and jobs a year ago.

Well, since all the TARA classes are over and cancelled why not use NNHS?
It is a nice central location.
Soylent Green is a better answer, you'll see. Bring in the front end loaders.
I'd rather eat a gyro with cheese and ketchup from one of those fine eateries on 16th street in 010 or the chicken wings first soaked in bleach water to kill the smell of rotten flesh
In order to gain entry into most shelters the homeless are required to have been tested for TB
God help you all...you're being sxxt on from all directions! I'm from cop family, have lung disease that is exactly like TB, only mine is non-communicable, and I can tell you firsthand, it sucks to not be able to breathe 24/7- there is no relief! I got mine from spinal cord injury and being laid up while I recovered and it's almost impossible to heal from-the antibiotics it takes to get rid of TB and the like just about kill you. I'd hate for any one of you to go through this hell and still try to perform your duties- it would be impossible-fight this policy as hard as you can- to me, it's no different than being asked to stand in front of a loaded gun about to be fired point blank! God bless the CPD except McIdiot.
remember DTEB bio stated that he was in medical school until he had a calling to become a policeman
remember this when they try to take away the medical. we deal with sick diseased people every day both on the street and in the station and they don't want to pay us when we catch something from these people. i hope the union brings this up at contract time.
Simply have wagon make routine drop offs at 35 & Michigan since it is a police facility!

OT - did anyone see the memo for the openings for fbi task force in ocd? Deadline for to froms is to be determined?
Have our unions tell all the reverends to step up and do the Lords work of ministering to the poor and disadvantaged. they sure are in our business let's get in theirs.
Desk officers should ask all the homeless people if they have any diseases and then fill out the proper exposure forms for anyone who enters the lobby. Then have all the officers go to the hospital for treatment. The workers comp cost would definately get Rahmbos attention.
I've been around here for 27 years, but never been to Nate's. Is the place any good? I've heard both good and bad things about the place? Is this a bait and switch? Are there hidden extras in this deal? Is is worth driving down there from Touhy/Harlem?
This will probably be my last vest, I need it to last a while.
Any advice?
9/06/2011 10:47:00 AM
My advice would be retire. If you have 27 years why are you looking for a vest that will last a while? You should be looking for a retirement home away from this hellhole.
Do you think the FBI would allow these mutts to sleep in the lobby of their building?
Why are you so closed minded?
Why should you care if the homeless are in the station .... You should be on the street doing your job!!! You take an oath to protect as a career, like a doctor does or the fire department ..... They don't complain and fold their arms!!
Better the bum in a station than your back porch!!!
Put your fighting, complaining efforts in things that matter such as our contract and retirement/medical benefits!!!
I believe your being distracted by smoke and mirrors purposely to avoid the real issues!

If i were you I would not buy my vest from nates. If its gonna potentially save your life I would not trust those guys. I've heard some stories of vests being switched. Although I've never confirmed any of it I would not take the chance. You wanna leather coat, sure knock yourself out but for a vest go somewhere else. Just my two cents.
This is part of THE BIG PLAN. No normal human will enter the Districts with this human filth blocking the doors and crime will go down because it won't be reported!
Say what you want about Rahm, but he thinks outside the box. He is a genius.

I volunteer daleys house for a arming center.
Chill out, this has been going on forever, no big deal just don't kiss them or share bodily fluids.I do agree with the poster who commented on the mentally ill,and possibly armed guests but I guess that's just a job hazard. They can be entertaining last year in 024 one of the male homeless got caught beating off over a female. You had to be there it was funny.Make the best of all the bullshit ain't nothing gonna change.
Those same volatile, mentally ill, potentially dangerous and disease ridden homeless are swarming all over the airport (ohare)! Especially at night! Foot patrol in the terminals has never been so fun! YEAH RIGHT!
Here's what needs to be done. Chip in and buy a house on Rahm's block. Declare it a church. Open a shelter for the bums and derelects that are now called "homeless". Hell, while you are at it, form a non-profit and apply for some of that grant money that always seems to be available for the Revs. If the city gives you any trouble scream religious discrimination and sue the hell out of the city. Use the zoning laws against the Pols. A lawyer can tell you how to incorporate a non-profit religious scam.

This will fall by the wayside the first time a friend/family member of 42 extra-short, 9.5, joizey or an alderfool gets bitten in the ass by one of these vividly diseased weremutts...
Then of course, G-mac will insure that retribution will be taken against every copper within 1000' of the incident for failing to pre-emptively thrust their tender parts between the teeth of the weremutt in question.
it's a band-aid. the real homeless problem is a result of poor policies for dealing with mental health. most of those people suffer from one debilitating disease or another. don't worry, scc, that part isn't contagious. the shame here is that we have to resort to this. government's job is to enforce contracts and protect people who can't do it for themselves, by no fault of their own, i.e., these people. the state government ought to put more restrictions on welfare programs to minimize gaming the system, and handle the dismal mental health situation, instead.

I wouldn't want to buy a vest that left the store and if they took it back at all I would say don't go there. I know there are many who don't like Shore, but they have a vest, outer cover, and soft inserts for less than 600.
Fudd wants to close more state mental facilities........What's next?
I think that the SCC should at least try to get homeless people checked and to help get ride of anything that they have in their system and others around them.Either way the cops are doing a great job keeping students safe including during school grounds.I greatly appreciate it for those who have passed away and those who are still with us.

You want to SAVE MONEY? Call mega sports in plainfield. (no cook county tax) And there are a few places in Central Il that are good as well. I gotta ask this though. To the guy that traded DOWN to level 2 from Level 3...why did you do that? Level two wont stop a humbolt park Lagoon Mosquito flying directly at you much less a round..
While bulky,level 3 and 3a plus is far better. Hell I knew a security guy working the jets that had a 3A plus Swat Vest.He said something that stuck in my head. "better to sweat to death than to bleed to death".
Just curious thats all.

FYI: The vest was measured for at FOP HQ at a multi-vendor show. The vest was then delivered to the officer's district and it was just too damn heavy and stiff for old timer pushing almost 60. It wasn't what was tried on at FOP Hall and there was a price difference that they would not honor.
scc how about city hall, or 35th and wabash. i hear they're even giving them coffee and donuts at 35th. maybe with a little effort, we cabn put them on a bus and they can make their merry way to 35th street. how you like them now?

I want whatever this guy is smoking!
Not grievance, IOD and exposure to communicable disease report. A grievance is for a contract violation. show me where the homeless have or have not a contractual right to sleep in their puddles of piss in our front lobby.
I've run across this before and, as is typical, coppers will not stick together and they want someone else to step up and do their dirty work for them.
What is needed is for each and every individual officer who works the desk and/or becomes exposed to these disease ridden flea infested shit pants subhuman democrats to complete the following reports, EVERY DAY:
IOD report, exposure to communicable disease report.
Not once but each and every day, EVERY DAY.
I've had people MF the FOP but then when I hand them the forms to fill out they look like I just shit in their hand. Officers, you have to put pen to paper, sign, date etc. Every day is a separate exposure remember.
Or, you can blog how the FOP doesn't do any thing for you and watch where people toss the un-filled out IOD and exposure to communicable disease forms.
Just start checking them for warrants and they will go away.

J& G on Austin is the best. When I was promoted some years ago, I went there and had to get new EVERYTHING. And when I had a couple of uniform re-adjustments that had to be done, they handled it quickly and without any additional charges. It's a nice polish family that owns the place, they make everything themselves, including your vest covers,
and they do very good work, and will fix/repair or replace anything you've recently purchased without any hassles. What more could you ask? With Kales moving on, other than Chicago Uniform Co. on Roosevelt Rd., there aren't too many choices now.
Nate's wouldn't be high on my list. And yes, for you South Siders, J & G is a bit of a drive, so it's best to call them first and let them know what you need, so you can get in and out when you get there. It's worth it, trust me.

Never forget it was a homeless mentally ill democrat bag lady who would periodically sleep in the front lobby of 019 who murdered PO Rich Francis right in front of the station.
And why was she sleeping on the floor of 019?
Why it was because she was too violent to be allowed near her west side family so they threw her out.

TRI TAYLOR BE NEAR JUVENILE COURT NEAR WESTERN. SMALL STORE FRONT BUT LONG ON THE INSIDE.
DECENT PLACE.
Nates....well for trinkets(keepers ect) its ok Holsters...if they have them and god help you if you are lefty(Im lefty, I know) body armor...well....You can save money other places but think about what you are saving money ON. This is the second most important piece of equipment you will own. Number one is your weapon and #3 is the holster for it. Im still against this level 2 armor. while light weight it doesnt stop much. Three and 3A Plus (with plates) will. yeah yeah i know its heavy and bulky and bla bla bla. But ultimately ask yourself whats important cost or protection? if FITTED CORRECTLY,3 and 3A plus is comfortable. Remember to check fitting of your vest WHILE SEATED and while standing and while standing with arms raised. (for rise) It will take a while but checking and measuring THESE dynamics for Body Armor is crucial.
DO NOT buy a vest without side panels. DO NOT. period. DONT.
As far as covers go,get one from a place you trust or have your tailor make one for you. Remember,Canvas or tight weave nylon(breathes and is water repellent) As far as pockets,get what YOU NEED not what looks cool. Practicality. Usually 4 front pockets and an OC holder.
INSIDE the vest,have them install one more pocket,with a velcro strap.(for Number 2)
I wont ever recommend something to you guys that I havent tried and tested in my work environment.
Happy shopping.
