Despite Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s highly promoted efforts at concentrating additional police patrols in the city’s most dangerous neighborhoods, many crime-ridden police districts still have fewer officers patrolling their streets than far safer areas of the city have, according to recent data obtained by The Chicago News Cooperative.
The data included officer-assignment data for all 9,400 Chicago police officers, as well as almost 1,000 detectives — information that the city has steadfastly declined to make public.
The analysis found that the distribution of patrol officers among the city’s 25 police districts does not correlate to the places where crime rates are highest.
But as stated here and elsewhere, the real problem is actually no manpower:
Attorney General Eric Holder on Monday warned that financially strained police forces around the country likely will shrink for the first time in the quarter century in which statistics have been tallied.
Holder said that by the end of this year, 12,000 police officers and sheriff's deputies probably will lose their jobs amid government budget shortfalls and cuts in a sluggish economy, citing a new Justice Department report.
"The findings included in this new report show that law enforcement agencies nationwide have nearly 30,000 unfilled vacancies," he said in prepared remarks to U.S. police chiefs.
- The number of law enforcement officers who were killed nationwide has jumped nearly 17 percent.
Newly released statistics from the FBI show that 56 officers were murdered in the line of duty last year. That is a jump from 48 in the previous year.

I live in 022 and some "study" is going to say I have MORE police protection than 007? Bullfuckingshit!
Too bad Illinois banned volunteer auxillary Officers years ago, citing a lack of training. What the heck, it was an extra set of eyes, ears and a gun that backed up the full time Officers who now ride alone in most suburbs and countys.
Instead of giving all our money to the illegals and welfare thieves how about using the TRILLIONS wasted on more police and to shore up pension funds for first responders? Maybe barry obama could stop giving trillions of our money away in free giveaways to countries who hate us!

Manpower is certainly an ISSUE, but the PROBLEM is feral shitheads everywhere that are not in prison (or dead) where they belong, off the street.
And that isn't the police's fault, it's the judicial system's fault. All those judges and lawyers, not cops!
And digging deeper, the fault of all these disfunctional useless turds on the gubmint teat doing nothing but breeding more shitheads, and through zero parenting, turning them into antisocial feral shithead animals.
The asshole politicians making these decisions don't live in shit neighborhoods and always have 24/7 protection for them and their families. Why would they care about the folks who pay the bills.
NYPD just reported something like a 150% increase in crime in certain areas of NYC, due to massive ammounts of "re-allocating" officers from high crime areas to babysit the "Occupy Wall Street" hippies.

Is that 9,400 which includes 1,000 Detectives?
Or 9,400 + 1,000 = 10,400?
Either way, we're still short 3 or 4 THOUSAND P/O's, Det's, Sgt's, Lt's, and Capt's.
Where oh where is all of that extra cash going to?
It's almost funny how we are now being down-sized as a Department, and yet some people are soooo concerned that there are not enough officers assigned to the "high crime" areas.
National FBI crime statistics over the past 25 years have PROVEN, time and time again, that the cities in the nation with the least-restrictive gun laws ALSO have the LOWEST crime rates! All we have to do to keep crime down, while we down-size the CPD, is to legalize conceal-carry, AND have CAPS meetings to teach citizens about their re-discovered 2nd Amendment Rights! We know from the McDonald case that honest, law-abiding black people in black neighborhods have NO problem carrying a gun, if encouraged, and blasting away the bad guys! This is TRULY a missed opportunity by Rahm Emanuel. If you need to eliminate police officer vacancies to save money, so be it, but then, with all your political power, Rahm, and it IS enormous, ram-rod "conceal-carry" through the State Legislature, and ENCOURAGE citizens to carry guns and help the police to SHOOT these COWARDLY gang-bangers. The ghetto thugs, individually, are ALL cowards...that is exactly why they join a "gang"...as individuals, they know they are just cowardly, and power-less.
ARM THE RIGHTEOUS CITIZENS in "under-served" districts, and enjoy the show while they blast away the vermin in their midst! Then, they can call 9-1-1 so a beat car can do an AIRA report on a justifiable, self-defense homicide.
If you pull officers from slower districts to move them to busier districts the city will soon be all busy districts.
Who cares who complains. Why pull the police from those who pay the most for their service to give them to those who pay the least and dont even want the police except to blame them because they were bad parents and dont want to look in the mirror when theyre kids become drug dealers and get "kilt"
I'll bet Obama feels like an ass wasting all that money on those solar panels. Now the rape's and murders are on his watch.

We've been trying to warn the public for years about the manpower drain, which by the way did not start on Obama's watch. Now, just as we are approaching this G8 Summit and dealing with the Take Back Chicago/Wallstreet protesters, folks are beginning to see the potential large scale threat to the entire city.
What I don't understand is, given announcements by the President and the current Administration about passing a bill to INCREASE the number of coppers throughout the major metropolitan departments, why are certain factions in Congress preventing passage of this bill. Sure, we can get on the bandwagon and scream about how much we dislike President Obama's policies and his handling of the economy. But it would seem disingenuous to condemn him on this particular issue. It really doesn't matter whether or not it is a political stunt. The fact is - the police need an injection of personnel and he is trying to provide the funds to do just that. It isn't a prefect solution, but it is a step in the right direction. Perhaps folks should be honest about where the problem lies - in regard to THIS issue - rather than piling on just because it is fashionable.
If you want talk about honesty and integrity, supporting the profession and continuing to protect the citizens of this city, we need to put the partisan politics and ranting aside. We should focus on improving our work environment and our organization before getting twisted up on national politics.
Don't worry. If your political preference is something other than Obama, then you'll have plenty of time to bash him as the 2012 election approaches.
Lets stop "free" school lunches and cut public aid.. That would save rens of millions... But you say...thats not fair those poor kida "need" that free lunch or they have no food... Then tell their dog ass parent or parents to make them a fucking lunch instead of wasting that link card on booze amd hot chips.. Buy some bread and lunch meat and make the kids their lunch. Furthermore anyone who has been on public aid for more than 3 years and has no mental or physical handicap which prevents them from working needs to be shut off today!! I think 3 years of riding on the states dime while doing nothing productive is the limit..ohhhh but they cant find a job you will say... NO.. They dont want to work, period! So you and I have to
In 019 they have around 215 9161's (P.O.'s) and in 007 they have 385 9161's as of last week assigned to them respectively.
Holder is no friend of the street cop. Probably looking for jobs for the criminal justice majors from the diploma mill schools like Westwood College, Chicago State and Governors State.
The federal government should have nothing to do with hiring Police/firefighters/teachers. These are all local issues. Quit taking our tax money to Washington, skimming off the top, and then sending a few dollars back to us. Let us keep it to spend locally.

Are you that dumb? NYC has seen a massive increase in crime since last year. Are the OWS protesters engaging in shootings, robberies, rape and murder?
Oh dear God, another study that showed the poor areas have less officers? Are you fucking kidding me? In 025 last night we were practically bumping into each other. They even have two cars that have to stay on their beats all the time and if they get an arrest or do something else then another beat car has to patrol that area. Do other citizens in Chicago get that type of service?
Most regular citizens in Chicago don't know that as a result of the safe areas losing officers to the ghetto. The ghetto has come to them. In the north and northwest side of Chicago there are several small pockets of shitbag criminals. And ever summer you can see it growing. Even in God's country- the 016th district.
The ghetto isn't getting less officers, they actually have better police service than most other areas of the city that have high tax paying citizens. To the good citizens of Chicago- you are being robbed by Racon Eyes. He is shifting away officers from your neighborhood to the ghetto because they are under served! That is a big fucking joke. Where I live, I would be lucky if I saw a squad car roll through my neighborhood.
if you work on zone one you can see it slowly crumbling to pieces--- raps a lot more common, primary beat cars downed on first watch every night, bosses getting real stingy with time due, burglaries and robberies way up, etc.... but when you check 025 they have a bunch of cars down on missions not taking calls--- they have this luxury because the department opened a bunch of bid spots in 025 and people went there--- they hardly ever open any spots in 016 or 017 and the manpower levels are at dangerously low levels--- remember if you live in zone one and you trudge off to the ghetto eveyday your wife and kids are left behind in a neighborhood with bare bones police coverage--- whoever came out with this study is smoking the hookah pipe and drinking the rahmbo muscle milk....

If some fucker tries to rob me in my garage after I pull in, they'll find him dead too. In my garage, my gun is in my pocket with my finger near the trigger.

ATTN. SCC;
I an article titled " Obama's/Holders Justice Dept.
Sends Border Patrol Agent to Jail For " Violating Rights of Drug Smuggler "
This article was posted in " Town Hall.com " website. I don't know how to transfer article to you.
I feel that it is of great importance that our Officers be aware of the position of the Holder DOJ.
A Border Patrol Agent was prosecuted & sentenced to 2 years in jail.
He was found not culpable by his own IAD, but at request of Mexican Gov't, he was prosecuted by DOJ.
Maybe this is one of the reasons the are less LEO's on the street.
When Fast & Furious Atty. Gen Holder opens his mouth about manpower, it's because an Election is looming. Watch The Messiah open the vault and toss Rahm some federal First Responder money (that Daley previously squandered).
New radios, cars and hiring coming in Spring ?
Politicking at it's finest.
First of all lie...look at the seniority for officers in ghetto districts versus normal taxpaying districts...ghett districts have nearly 400 versus barely 200 in northside taxpaying districts. Is FOP going issue a statement on this? Meatball? Because if this lie is the perception then all th 600 or so officers are going to be redeployed to ghettos! Secondly, police officers are to be assigned to districts based on population, not crime . By creating a police state in minority neighborhoods actually exascerbates the criminal mind set, and that is why the liberal ACLU is getting involved. And third, why is it ok to fuck the well behaved taxpayer out of services and protection he/she actually deserve??? I am so tired of this city and the media making statements as if that is ok! This isnt a war zone! The taxpayer shouldnt get fucked because he can behave!!! I hate this place
Its just a job.

We need to contract with Alsip, Oak Lawn, and Merrionette Park to handle 022's overflow. Much better response time by the burbs.
It's about time that the giant police state that is the United States of America began to shrink. The reality is there are too many police.
Too many pimply arrests. Too much interaction between the police and the citizens. Too much reliance on police to solve social problems.
If murders go up, too bad. The community can begin dealing with their problems or just start digging graves. Either way, I'm tired of paying big tax money for public babysitters.
Kind of OT, but I thought you guys here might want to check out this story from over at the Chicago News Report Blog: "VIDEO: West Side Chicago high school teacher wants police to stop shooting at her students"
Just google that blog's name, and you will see this story, it was put up yesterday and has gotten some good feedback already.

I live in 008 and ALOT of police service is need over on the East end, or West Englewood. But, I will admit that over the last few years, the sevice has gotten better. I have had to make a few calls, and the PO's were quick to response, and in numbers. This has happened on ALL watches that I"ve had to call on. This is because of the coppers themselves and Alderman Z. But the fact remains, we, as a whole, are understaffed.

I was at the IACP conference this last weekend, got a chance to speak to people from around the country. Oddly enough, almost everyone knows about Rhams scams.
One Fed I spoke to said they were all glad we got him and his imagination.
Most of the Chiefs I spoke to already knew about the fabrications of our new mayor and one wondered why a guy like McCarthy would demean himself for someone like Rham.

How about all the 20 and 30 year old crack heads getting social secutity when they never worked a day in their lives. Ran into an old CI crack head, street hustler the other day who informed us that he is getting a $21,000 social security back pay check and also is getting $850 a month for life. This guy is 35 and has never worked a day in his life. Even he laughed and said, "I know it's fucked up, but theys going to give it to me so Im gonna take it." And people ask, "why is America in such bad shape?" There are 100's of thousands of these cases out there.
Why are Ghetto districts so busy? They call the cops for everything. I'm having a hard time with my bowel movement. My brotha Jarmaine stole my Glock. I need a ride to the hospital. It goes on and on.

You are of course correct, but after almost 40 years of out of control welfare we are no closer to a solution to the problem than we were when the "Great Society" started. It would be wonderful to just cut off the whole thing tomorrow. The problem then would be, just what do you do with these people? I know, I know let them find a way to support themselves and their many offspring. A blind man could see that will not work. This is the USA, we can't have people literally starving in the streets. Make them work you say. Well if you give them something to do in the menial classification, they will probably just refuse or stop showing up. If any of you think crime is out of control now, well just wait till we try turning off the welfare faucet. I wish it was as simple as you say.
Regarding pot holes in police lot, no need to worry winter is coming early and the snow that piles up in the lot from lack of plowing our police lots will more than cover the problem til spring!! "city service request" to fix a police lot. Ha. Thanks for the laugh.

When will US Attorney General Eric Holder appear before a Senate Inquiry for his criminal actions?
The Fast and Furious Operation has resulted in the deaths of three law enforcement officers.
US Attorney General Eric Holder is directly responsibly for the deaths of three police officers.
Mexico is embroiled in a civil war over narco-trafficking.
US Attorney General Eric Holder chose sides in the cartel war and armed the Sinaloa Cartel.
The Sinaloa Cartel, often described as the largest and most powerful drug trafficking organization in the Western Hemisphere, is an alliance of some of Mexico’s top drug traffickers. The coalition operates in concert to protect themselves and more loosely to keep their businesses going smoothly. It relies on connections at the highest levels (US Attorney General Eric Holder and the BATF), corrupting portions of the federal police and military to maintain an upper hand on its rivals.
The HIGHEST member of US law enforcement violated US and Internation law and nothing is being done.

look on the pdt's every night at ALL the south and west side districts. they have every beat car up along with multilple rapid cars and multiple incident and mission cars. also i garauntee that all the tact teams are filled. look on the pdt's for the northside districts. multiple beat cars downed and absolutely NO rapids, mission, or incident cars. the south and west sides have more officers than they know what to do with while the north side districts are starving.

Eldery Man Robbed at Location Where Supt. McCarthy Spoke to "Save Wood Street Station" Gathering
Just 18 hours after the Supt. appeared at the Ukrainian Cultural Center (Chicago & Oakley) and told residents of the 13th district how much less crime we have than other areas of the city, an elderly gentleman was robbed at gunpoint in the very parking lot through which McCarthy made his early departure.
This happened in broad daylight on a heavily traveled street. Although the 13th district officers arrived quickly, the black male suspect was long gone.
This is about the 8th or 9th robbery in about a 8 block radius in the last few months. And, surprise, all have been committed by black males carry a chrome plated gun.

Pending Traffic Engineering Nightmare..
Have you seen the map of where all these speed camera will go. Take a peek
Speed cam bill has some stunning consequences
"...Rationale…
Last spring, the Chicago Department of Transportation collected speed information at seven existing red-light camera intersections within one-eighth of a mile of schools and parks and found that 25.7 percent of the 1.5 million vehicles — 360,000 drivers — were traveling above the 30 mph speed limit, officials said..."
================
So guess what?
If 25.7 percent of all city traffic is traveling over the speed limit and has been doing it for years and you put these speed cams everywhere and make them all slow down. It's going to a traffic disaster won't it?
How much longer will the rush hours be?
The street is like a pipe right and only so many cars will fit on a one mile stretch of road. The only way to get more cars though you either have to move them faster or make the pipe wider or it's going to take much longer.
Dx -- DT
Can you say gridlock? Think about it because I don't think the city has thought about the consequences.
There's gonna be a lot more hunched over drivers with that death grip on the wheel riding on bumpers to make it though that next traffic light at the new slower rate me thinks.
Guess what else?
You see that small sample survey done indicating 360,000 speeders?
So what's 360,000 speeders times $100 fine. This is a revenue generation maneuver plain and simple. However if CPD is looking to gain a minimum of $36 million dollars based upon this small traffic sample alone I would ask why the department has to cut anything. Assuming that it all works to their plan which remains to be seen?
How they going to turn these cameras on and off for 20 MPH school zones on school days when children are present?
The story at the link also proposes that the cameras would just be "switch on and off and only operational from like 6am to 10pm" --- so if you're doing a drive-by at the park after 22:00 it's okay to speed I guess..?? Well makes sense as speeding is the least of your worries at that point

Wrong, my friend. You start FIRST by destroying the head of the snake that is socialist/communist/marxist/revolutionary/islamic sympathizer Barack Oboma. Oboma calls all the shots, and his minions follow suit...i.e. Emanuel, etc. to name just one of his leftist cronies. You crush the head of the snake, and the rest of the body dies. First things first.
Oboma must be crushed...he must be removed. If we are to remain a republic, under the Constitution that secures us our life, liberty and pursuit of happiness, FREEDOM!, a conservative must be elected in 2012. If not a conservative, than a republican...but NOT this enemy of the state, NOT dictator Oboma.
If you have any doubts, check out living conditions in North Korea, China, Venezuela, Russia, Cuba...ask these people how communism works for them. And then get down on your hands and knees and kiss the ground of the country you live in..land of the free and home of the brave...if you can keep it.

If we want to get out of the mess we are in, we are going to have to find a way to reduce the size of government to a sustainable level.
That is going to have to involve a substantial reduction in the number of government employees.
