Good Old Censorship??
ive worked a few of these so just fyi ..the picture shows electrical tape (i think) do not use electrical tape because it streches and loosens. also doesnt hold up as well. use black duct tape or athletic/ hockey tape to secure your gear to your body.
Why don't we use a few rolls and tape Rahm to the Picasso in the Dailey Center. He will have a bird's eye view of the G8/NATO bullshit we will have to deal with.
I agree with the guy who suggested we all get "McCarthy" name tags for the G8 fiasco. Or we could mix things up a bit and throw in some "Emanuel" and "Daley" name tags for comic relief.
I have to be honest, I'm stumped.
Somebody put it best in another post....wear a "mourning band" in honor of having to miss Police Week in DC.....
so what if it happens to fall across your star number....
OT - Mike Madigan sponsored Tim Degnan's son, an inexperienced lawyer, to become a judge of the Circuit Court. In doing so, 5 other more qualified candidates, including the incumbent judge were forced to drop out of the race. Welcome to the political sewer of Chicago.

My partner and I were just discussing that.
Haha.
At least it's UL listed.
make sure flip a corner over so it is easily removed. works very well. don't wait for a free roll. go too cosco, have your crew pitch in............... small fire extinguisher. , just in case some prick throws a fire bomb. SERIUOSLY..... watch past video's . coppers do get set on fire.STAY SAFE MY FRIEND''''get a few towels, some clean towls, bottle of water,all free at the ER's. stock up..
Didn't you see what happened to the PO and Lt in Oakland because of tape? Of course, that's a city government at war with it's police dept.. Instead, ask the confrontational demonstrators if they wish to make a complaint on you and if they say yes demand identification so that you can refer them to IPRA for the 'investigation.' Tape on name tags is not a good idea and a proven loser in this current climate. Remember, everybody be hate'n on the Po-Po!
Not only will we have to pay for it out of pocket, but we'll have to be only dept approved duct tape.
Duct tape is much better. Sgt's should use different colored tape on helmets so his/her squad can find them.
That's what we did the last time around. Goon Squadddddd
I think we should put stickers that say "99% Too!" over our name tags and stars. Throw the protesters off--how can they attack one of their 'own'?
Duct tape instead.
Superb. Those that know, know. Those that don't, ask a friend, not here.
LOL! Wonder how many of the younger guys understand this one. And if they don't they soon will.
That and a Red Solo Cup, tennis ball and a bag of lyme.
100 Mile an Hour tape - know it well. It has been used in the Army for years.
Can fix anything!
Maybe somebody can get close enough to wrap a peice of it around Debra Kirby's mouth.... That would be a HUGE help.
Very sad but unfortunately true.
We're simply cannon fodder to the powers that be.
I heard RUMORS only as of now, NO teir 1 officers will be armed just shields and riot sticks (the long ones) 35th St. and Rahm don't want any weapons falling into rioters hands.
I had need name tags made, I am now Officer McCarthy.
In fact, many of my co-workers are now also known as Officer McCarthy.

It's also been great covering the "Service Engine Soon" red light on the dashboard of the junks we are given to drive everyday.

COLD FIRE.com has LE fire extinguishers rated for ALL fires and safe contact with skin. WIll fit on your belt/MOLLE system.
Hydraulic fluid loosens electrical tape. Just a little will remove all electrical tape goo.
I have to be honest, I'm stumped.

Ur stumped because your probably a fucking house mouse who hasn't done shit in their career other than brew the coffee and fetch the W/C her needs. Yes I said "her".
Leave my red solo cup out of this . It's my BFF .
I had a name tag made up back in the 80's for wear in Uptown.... FUCK YOU
Good one, SCC!

its not for securing your gear brain child. If youve worked a few of these then you should know what hes talking about... and scc, if you want to COVER SOMETHING you can find on the internet tape that is POWDER BLUE in color... It wont STAND OUT AS MUCH and will COVER UP the certain thing that you want COVERED UP.. wink wink nod nod. are you people getting it yet?? The black duct tape can be used for another certain thing that can be COVERED up for another item YOU WEAR on your body... please I hope to god some idiot realizes what im talking about. were gonna show up and some muscle head is gonna have a cup taped around his balls with powder blue duct tape and black electrical tape.. it wouldn't surprise me.
Somebody put it best in another post....wear a "mourning band" in honor of having to miss Police Week in DC.....
so what if it happens to fall across your star number....

dont wear a nametag or star during these protests.. Not to conceal your name but it will get ripped off during the first 5 minutes of clashing with these people. Its a trophy for them to get that.. If you have to wear it for the bosses then do so but before going in and moving people remove your star and tag.. if you dont you will loose it.
No, no, no, no.
Because when your face pops up in one of the inevitable videos, you're finished. You're a liar and a cheat and everything a jury hates.
Picture your house with wings.
Don't do it.
Put it over your visor so:
YOU SEEEEEEEE NOTHINGGGGGGGGG!
Was watching the Clinton News Network (CNN) and saw a special about the group "Anonymous". They were able to get PO's personal info IE: addresses and such. We should be able to cover up our names and badges with tape if our department is not going to protect us or do something to disrupt this group. The bad thing is that all arrest reports and case reports are public knowledge. Then you have isolated incidents where the PO will actually be a victim such as Battery to PO. We're in for a long week. Like Sean Connery said in the Untouchables. Go home to your family after your tour. Everything else will fall into place. Meanwhile the department should be addressing these assholes.
Could it be videotape. We need to tape the protestors from our viewpoint to show what really happened so when everything goes to hell, we will be covered. Everyone has a phone with a camera, protect each other!
My Name and Star Number are written in chinese!
You have to buy your own tape. The department said they are not supplying us with any. WTF
Why don't we use a few rolls and tape Rahm to the Picasso in the Dailey Center. He will have a bird's eye view of the G8/NATO bullshit we will have to deal with.
1/20/2012 12:19:00 AM
Why don't we just duct tape McDrunk and him together, butt to butt, and duct tape their mouths shut?
Everyone will be issued one roll of "hello kitty" duct tape. 1st issue courtesy of Shitty Hall. Once "hello kitty" runs out, you get your choice of leopard or zebra print.
RE no weapons to be used against the expected gentle and courteous rioters:
Also heard through the rumor mills at 35th st. that "nerf" has donated to the CPD academy 1,000 super soakers to be distributed along with the 1st issue Hello Kitty duct tape.
Shooting h20 at close range with a flourescent decked-out squirt gun can "hurt your eyes". Christy Webberrr will have the no-contract water trucks standing by for the expected multiple refills. A new general order will soon follow. Rahm likes this idea cause he remembers going to civil protests with his mamma followed by ballet matinees.
What good is duct tape etc. for cover up names; beat tags; car numbers etc ???
GET REAL. It is 2012.
The FBI can take a picture of your snot from outer space.
P.S. If you don't turn on your camera the gold braid slugs want a day.
Only permit them to protest in THE WILD WILD WESTSIDE ... Pookey and Little Ray Ray would love a new coat or bullhorn around the hood.
Then the will begging for the police to help out ... lol
this city is a joke ...
Took me 2 hours to get home today.
I hope all you cops are safe... do NOT risk your jobs or freedom.
PLEASE BE SAFE
not-a-cop
Sight seen: For the Bulls riots, my West side Tact Sgt gave us all name tags that said "UPURASS"...
I loved them old dinosaur bosses!
I say, don't even wear your star, it's just going to get ripped off. Spend the money and get the stuff sewn on.
I heard RUMORS only as of now, NO teir 1 officers will be armed just shields and riot sticks (the long ones) 35th St. and Rahm don't want any weapons falling into rioters hands.

Sure, it's okay if WE fall into their hands, but not our guns! God forbid!
We really work for morons.
Selling "VANECKO" name tags at the FOP shop on Monday. $1.00 a piece. Get em while the`re hot!!
06:22 You not only work for morons, but WITH morons if they actually believe or listen to a rumor that the police will not be armed. Thought you had to take a basic IQ test to be hired.
There is a crazy fuc$er in 5 that wears a mclovin name tag and at times switches that to Mearday and I think we all should get tags with names like Goudie, Loevy, Savini, Steinberg, etc.
you yutes dont know anything.
keep your star, file a report,
stolen by a demonstrator.
it'll happen anyway, for real
so we put em in our pockets during the "hands on portion" of the riots
Its great for collecting finger prints and hair fiber,dead skin.

"Oakland Police Name-Covering Episode Prompts Suspension, Demotion:"
I'm glad I'm not a cop in Oakland!
Besides, I drive a beat car in the ghetto on midnights.
They're not going to promote (anyone) in the near future.
What could they demote me to?
Suspension? When, after I get off my NATO-G8 IOD? 2:1 is an acceptable ratio, no?
"We're simply cannon fodder to the powers that be."
Remember this statement.
Smile, because you're on Candid Camera. They're small and they're everywhere.
It's not the good old days.
Be careful. Help each other; not only when the guy/gal next to you is in trouble, but KEEP them out of trouble, too (Don't let anyone get carried away).
The department has proven that it will not back you up.
"Beyond the scope of your training" and "Outside the scope of your training" will be the words they use to let you know YOYO (You're On Your Own).
Oh, and nobody cares about patrol.
"Not only will we have to pay for it out of pocket, but we'll have to be only dept approved duct tape."
From a city-approved contractor.
I hear Vanecko's gone into the tape business!
It is DUCT TAPE of DUCK TAPE?
I think I have seen both.
During Bulls riots we removed stars and name tags! Do the same or they will be ripped off during battle and used as trophys!
i dunno i'm fed up with ole rahm i'd just as soon join the demonstrators
Don't forget the shades.. Facial recognition - that shit's now built into Facebook so be sure to lock down your Facebooks well before they upload your mugshot, else your name will come up as a tagging suggestion. In fact it could bring up old press shots so I'm told.
Always some 15yr old kid posting that crap.
I am fairly sure the G8ers will follow the standard escalation path, so the key is going to be de-escalation while dealing with pretty much the angriest assholes in the lower 48.
Hope y'all are feeling like mother Theresa, because the last thing we need is to give them martyrs.
"It is DUCT TAPE of DUCK TAPE?
I think I have seen both."
It started out as tape that was primarily used to join and seal ductwork--thus "duct tape." However, with the explosion of new uses for it, through numerous repeated mispronunciations the name became "duck tape." One company took advantage of this widespread mispronunciation, and calls it's version of the familar gray tape, "Duck Tape" and uses a cartoon duck as a logo.
Aren't you glad you asked?
I am not going to risk my life protecting these rich elite scumfucks anymore. I say we all put on our uniforms that day but join in on the protests. I think I will. My partner seemed interested in it too.
Why is it our duty to hold back the hoards of people they've angered when nothing on their agenda is for the benefit of us or our families?
I say if we don't join them, we move the barricades aside and let the cowering fools defend themselves from the crowd.
I got into law enforcement because my grandmother was shot in the crossfire of two drug dealers battling it out as she walked home from the grocery store.
I didn't sign up to protect evil men from getting a dose of karma.
Just out of curiosity, do you ever actually wonder why it is so many people around the world show up to protest the G8? Do you ever consider the remote possibility that you're defending monsters? That maybe, just maybe, you're helping the bad guys?
