Exempt Training

According to someone who ought to know, guess how many exempts have attended the G8 Training? We're talking either the One Day Training or the Three Day Extravaganza.

Zero.

Just thought we'd put that one out there.

That's because they're the best and brightest that the Chicago Police Department has to offer. They have such a wide range of knowledge on modern policing issues that the classes would be a waste of their time. Give them a break already!

The Exempts are being trained at the Chicago Crime Commission's School of Defensive Deployment!

Oh, please. They're all going to get the usual fifteen minute, 'special' training sessions, AS USUAL.

And that's the way this department has always been, and will always be, run. As UNPROFESSIONALLY as possible.

Hey, McCarthy was sitting in seats at the Bulls game two rows behind the bench. Those seats are owned (not by McCarthy) by someone who has donated significant money to the Rahminator.

Did Mad Mac disclose the gift?
It is on video at the 9 minute mark of the 4th quarter (there were several sightings).

They don't need training. They got clout. Dats all yuze need.

I mean, why in the hell would you train? Why would you want to know what your officers are capable of before a major event coming in three months time? Why would you not want to cover yourself by attending the fed class that supposedly covers you when the civil actions hit?

They will all be busy running for cover and pointing fingers at each other when the dust settles. It should be high comedy come June.

I saw Commander Judy Martin from Special Functions at the range with her whole unit a few days ago training for the up coming G 8. They were training on their off days and I was impressed with the dedication of the SPecial Functions unit. She is a great leader and very committed to her role as Commander. All three of the people in the unit were also doing red men gear. Judy looked like Rambo.

I can tell you this much, as an exempt member I do not need this training. I will not be on the front lines nor will I be making any critical decisions. I did my time coming up through the ranks and leave this mayhem to the officers and their immediate supervisors. Mr. Emmanuel has already made it clear that he will be making any critical decisions that need to made and that we will just pass them on to the supervisors in the field, most likely through the use of my dept. issued Blackberry. The one thing i will be in charge of is making sure the proper procedure is followed through with when there are complaints against any officer in the field. I expect many of you to be handed down some serious time/punishments for your unprofessional behavior during these summits.

It's scary to know that the only qualifications most of the exempts have is political clout. They do no training what so ever. I guess they are so naturally smart that all the knowledge is born into them. Lead by example, huh? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Just one of the many reasons no one has any confidence is our leadership. Most of them aren't qualified to run a Christmas Tree lot.

These things are not new. Where have you been. A couple of past supers had the community service sergeant in 001 do nothing but hustle up free tickets and dinners and invitations . It has been going on for a long time. Many exempts will not attend retirement parties evern for other exempts unless the party committee sends them free tickets..

I heard Commander McNaughton, the new guy promoted to 008 is putting his papers in. He was the Commander in 016, came from Patrol, worked for Aunt Bea and was her right hand (enough said there!). He is pissed because he has to drive a free car, with free gas from 016 to 008. He worked in 016 for goodness sake, so he still owes the city time for all of the down town he had as an Exempt in a do nothing District compared to any District in Area 1! Stop your bitching and be the police, do your job and time, or are you afraid that the department will finally see how incompetent you really are.

I am waiting to see how Commander Schmidt does in 007. I bet to ensure he looks good, the Stuperintendent floods the District with a slew of additional officers. 007 is one of our smallest districts and already has more officers assigned to it than most high crime Districts that is twice the size.

Lets see how many Exempts retire as the Stuperintendent and his puppet AW move the Exempts around.

Don't forget about O'Grady from Narcotics. He has never been a District Commander, neither has the guy in Management and Labor Affairs, neither has Debra Kirby or Eddie Welch. Look at Eddie Welch's performance too. This circus is getting worst! All clowns!

Speaking of Leo, has anyone brought up his department awards on the Iclear? Freeze frame one of his TV appearances. Match the ones he wears with those he is authorized? I'm sure it must violate some GO or rule, just because you can buy the ribbon at VCG, doesn't mean you have to purchase and wear it.

At least VCG doesn't sell medals.

In the olden days in the Big Green Machine, a lot of REMFs did "pencil drill training" because they were "too busy" to go to the range, etc. That ended completely, AFAIK, when Desert Storm showed them that there were no "rear areas." I saw clerks and jerks lining up early to go to the range, checking their gear and weapons, and buying non-issue stuff for their M16A2s like 'scopes. Those that were issued pistols were coming to me for one-on-one training. It's amazing how effective pencils can be when placed in a handgun barrel to show people what "trigger control" means.

Slackers will pay for their inattention with their own asses.

You all really need to get a clue.

Of course none of them have gone through the ridiculous excuse for training they have been sending us. If any of them did, they would have to sit in class with 20 or 30 of us and then they would no longer have any plausible deniability.

When the exempts finally go they will get their own classes where the "same training" that we had been given is given to them. And to a person they and the instructors will insist that we were all given thorough and extensive training to prepare us for the biggest anarchist free for all in the past 50 years.

Meanwhile we keep getting 30 minutes of cobbled together news video and pirated you tube crap and 10 minutes of whistle blowing and "step back" moves in the gym. You can be sure Georgas and Kirby are spending that 55 million the feds gave us like drunken sailors. Little Stevie is probably over in Greece trying to singlehandedly revive their economy with some training dollars right now.
