Rahm Spins and Spins...
Pounding the podium with emotion, Mayor Rahm Emanuel said Friday he’s outraged by the bloodbath of violence that claimed the life of a 6-year-old playing on her porch in front of her parents and nearly killed a Chicago Police officer.
“What happened is unacceptable. Our streets are for our children and for our law-abiding parents. I cannot think of anything worse than if a family is hanging out on their front porch [enjoying] nice spring-like weather that that is violated by violence. Our streets do not belong to gang-bangers,” Emanuel said.
“While obviously 10 [murders] over a weekend is dramatic, it is too frequent and too normal. I will not allow a child in Chicago to not have — as long as I’m mayor and I have something to do about it — the most basic of rights, which is the ability to play in their neighborhood, play on their streets and grow up with that sense of normalcy.”
So, in essence, Rahm is promising to finally hire more police officers. Because cameras aren't doing it, the "reverends" aren't doing it, the brass isn't doing it and McCarthy isn't doing it either.
- Mayor Rahm Emanuel today called on residents to help police take back their neighborhoods in the wake of a spate of shootings around Chicago.
- Responding to criticism that there aren't enough cops on the streets to prevent the violence, Emanuel pointed out he has moved more police officers into patrol jobs from administrative positions since taking office.
And it still isn't enough, is it? 9-1-1 calls go unanswered for minutes at a time. The calls sit and wait for an available car for tens of minutes, even hours. But as long as it falls into their "window," the city claims response times are stellar. Talk to citizens however and the luster starts to dim.
- After returning from his ski-trip to Utah with his kids, he said he went straight to the New Life Church to find out more details on the gun violence that plagued the city during a spell of warm weather.
So while the children of Chicago (who will probably never see the Rocky Mountains except in pictures) were being slaughtered in their front yards and on their blocks, Rahm was off skiing with his kids.
- Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel made a plea to the public Friday asking residents to help police stop violence in their neighborhoods.
"I understand the comfort that comes from 'It didn't happen in my neighborhood.' But it happened in your city," Mayor Emanuel said Friday.
"your city"? How about "our city" Rahm? Or are you admitting again you weren't really a citizen of Chicago for a stretch of years?

Sure, but not so outraged that he'll take blame for it, when just a couple of months ago, he was taking credit for the lack of killings.
Damn the media is dumb.
Well stated SCC, I couldn't agree more with everything in this post. Keep up the good work because the media in Chicago has failed to do what it is supposed to do. Then again, that is why blogs like this are becoming more popular each day as people look to find out the truth.
He's "outraged" "won't tolerate it" "ready to take on any gangs" etc, etc, etc....... Wikipedia should post all his hyperbole as the ultimate example of rhetoric. or bullshit.
"...he went straight to the New Life Church to find out more details on the gun violence that plagued the city during a spell of warm weather."
1) Weather has no effect on crime. Ask McCarthy
2) Those damn guns, going out & shooting all by themselves.
"'...it happened in your city,' Mayor Emanuel said Friday.
"'your city'? How about 'our city' Rahm? Or are you admitting again you weren't really a citizen of Chicago for a stretch of years?"
You don't understand. It's only "his city" if it's something good happening.
If it's something bad going on, he distances himself from it.
He wouldn't want any sound bites floating around about murders happening in "my city".
Typical politician.
Rahm's rhetoric is so profound that I could vomit.
The arrogant bastard must think that most of the electorate are stupid. Tragically, he would be correct. We have long passed "the tipping point" with parasites draining taxpayer coffers.
How many have retired since he took office? 500?
Someone should call him out next time he mentions pulling officers onto the streets. 1,000 officers? Really?
over 500, were on the street as TRU and MSF, so our retirement numbers negate any increases "on patrol"
"Our streets do not belong to gang-bangers,” Emanuel said.
Apparently they do, you dirty, caniving piece of shit. You and your Democratic, liberal, worthless friends kiss the asses of gang bangers to get vote from these animals (see the Chicago Mag with the story about the pols & the gangs from a few weeks back), and you expect up to believe that you plan on doing something about the violence? You won't do shit because the violence helps you justify your agenda that guns are bad, and more guns, even in the hands of law abiding citizens, are worse. Not to mention the fact that you dirty political fucks have your tongues so far up the gang leaders's asses that you could tell if they floss or not. We all need to accept the fact that until the asshole politicians are voted out of office and the gang banger are pushing up daisies or pushing out their new "boyfriends" in a prison cell, we are all at the mercy of these subhuman turds, and also the gang bangers.
I am peitioning my government with redresses. I hate the lifestyle my leaders have chosen. I will not be a serf so that they can be a king.
America
The Violence will only get worse, You the Democrats created a Sanctuary City for the Drug Cartels,Look at the Crime Rate in Mexico 47,000 Murders in the last 5 years.
This Clown spends more time away from office than in it.
Typical Plutocrat.
So, isn't he outraged about officer Pearson almost getting killed from a gang shooting? No comments about that? Maybe I missed it. And more lies because the inside coppers are still working inside. It's like a tatoo. Once they are tagged as insider coppers they never can get rid of it. Just check out 019 East and West. Both buildings filled with insiders.
The conniving Racoon has an answer for everything. When he speaks shit just rolls out of his greasy mouth. Bodies just keep piling up and hospitals try to treat the wounded. I do believe the citizens of this town are now seeing what a complete inept moron the Racoon is. The city is in decline. It was when Daley was doing his last years. Problem is it is going down hill a lot faster than we expected.
Did ANY of this Rahm-rhetoric include a mention of the
shooting(s) of ANY Chicago police officer?????
In all fairness, Utah does have some pretty good skiing.
I called the data help desk just to see if the network was down. I just got the run around no one could give me a straight answer. Then went to A1 to get the mount tested along with the PDT. They said everything checked out ok. I explained what had been occurring for two weeks. The techs called someone in charge and low and behold several towers were off line. I thanked them for finally giving me a reason why cad is down. Now why didn't OEMC didn't tell us is beyond me. Goes to show you that this city is so disorganized and lack of communication within agencies.

World-class city, all the way.
Ready for Nato!
Towers down, no communication.
Yup.
World-class.
Our streets do not belong to gang-bangers,” Emanuel said
Yes they do. They will own the streets as long as rahmittooem refuses to allow the people to exercise their God given right to self defense. It would be physically impossible to hire enough police officers to keep everyone safe. The police can only do so much and can't be everywhere at once. He's a idiot, with armed bodyguards.
"After returning from his ski-trip to Utah with kids, he said he went straight to the New Church to find out more details on the violence that plagued the city during a spe warm weather. "
So Rhambito doesnt consult with the upper command of the CPD to get details, but instead consults "the reverends". I think from now on Rhambito should consult with all religious leaders in chicago based on a victims religious persussion. VIctim was a catholic from St Hyacinths, then Rhammy needs yo consult Father Czewyndski. Victim was muslim then speak to the mulah at the local mosque.
Rahm being on vacation while the whole place goes to shit is a page right out of the Obama playbook. The country is in the crapper, and ol' Barry is out on the links or in the Hawaiian surf.
Do the actions match the words? That's all you need to know.
Maybe this slimy prick would be willing to donate a few of his lacky bodyguards to Patrol.
Haha, not gonna
happen.
Most of the police resources go to 011, 007, etc. And hs it helped, no! The animals are still shooting and killing.
Meanwhile, what were once lower crime districts and ones that were holding their own but just borderline are now higher crime districts and very little police resources to the actual tax paying hard working law biding citizens!
People will organize marches and demonstrations about the shooting of a hooded man but why don't people do the same in regards to hiring more police officers!!The
Someone should compare the number of murder victims since Rham became mayor and the same time frame a year eariler. Let just see what Rham and McJO are doing for the citizens of the City.
RHAMBOOOO's
McJersrey is responsible
Rahm, You are late on the rent for Chicago AGAIN. Now you will pay a late fee. love, Gangster Disciples

SCC is the first source I go to each day for what is REALLY going on in the CPD and the city.
If we had 80 degree weather in March, I hope the temperature will reach the hundreds during the NATO summit. It'll be great to have a bloodbath and have to close North Avenue beach when the whole world is unprotected.
This little shit trotted out the misses again in Belgium to offer transfat to Europeans. So while his city was full of MURDER he fled to go ski. He wont let his kids even drive passed a public school and when the shit hits the fan he orders his family to flee the city. Typical . Rahm hate is growing in the city minute by minute. Viva NATO
and violent demonstrations. If Rahm cannot stand up to the gang bangers of this city he must be recalled. (insert Herbie/Rahm embrace photo here).Oh and Frank and Fran fluff factory is NOT working , even a purple haired excessively tattooed yuppie libtard can see that CRIME IS NOT DOWN.
Putting loads of geriatric police on the streets, showing all young cops that their golden years on this job can be robbed of nice spots and be thrown back to the shit districts they worked for decades is very disheartening. I always thought I will work the ghetto for a long time with the hope of a nice gig on the back 9. Now we all know that no one is safe. No matter how long or how much we give to this city.
Is New LIfe one of the churches getting money from the city (payoff/stimulus) to stop the violence? Did the reverend get an earful?
it seems like I have heard this speech before--- like for the past 30 years everytime it heats up and these savages start blasting each other--- nothing to see here, move along....
Is it true that the new X.O. and new Lt. in Public Transportation, who don't like each other, had a dust-up over the last Kit-Kat bar in the fridge???
Funny thing about the new 019- 400 Officers and still short handed. Theres more POs working inside than works the street on 1st watch. Afternoons is pack filled with little pets with no experience. Hey Boss, whoever you are now, its time to reverse seniority some of those hard chargers to midnights to help us out. Its not that hard to do.
Hey Rham
Instead of asking people connected with the drug dealers, why don't you stop and ask a non-political police officer, who has no hope of promotion thanks to the likes of you, what is going on.
Screw the party line bosses, ask someone who knows!
Same goes for our controled press

Correction "He's an idiot with Idiot bodyguards."
Let's have a protest in Chicago about the Fla. teen that was killed.But 44 shot and 10 dead over a weekend , you hear nothing from the revruns or the "leaders" of the black community. You hear nothing from them because a majority of them are black on black crimes, I guess that's O.K. with them.
2:07 am post hit the nail on the head.
I never believe what people say until they back up their words by their actions!
Words are just words. Senseless dribble!
"...he went straight to the New Life Church to find out more details on the gun violence that plagued the city during a spell of warm weather."
Where? Is that at 35th and Michigan? Some kind of reverse-crystalball-unit?

Wish I could have written that as it expresses my feelings exactly. Plus one brothers in blue.
Shhh-shhh-shhhhhh Ralm.
The men are trying to have a conversation.
### SCC, HERE ARE SOME NUMBERS ***
# of Homicide victims (Shortshanks)
17 May 10 - 17 May 11(1 year): 531
Rahm's inauguration 17 May 11
# of Homicide victims (Rahm)
17 May 11 - 23 Mar 11(<1year): 555
Rahm is already 24 homicides ahead of Shortshanks!! With 7 more weeks to go!! Rahm is most likely looking at a 10% increase in homicides under his watch!!!
This is not a month to month comparison (like the spin doctors like to trot out) but a yearly total. Every homicide for the next seven weeks will be added to the 24, and then you will have Rahm's homicide numbers vs. Shortshanks!
Also, it is important to note that it appears the City is once again using Homicide "incidents" rather than Homicide "victims" in their numbers (One shooting with 3 dead equals 1 homicide under the City's spin doctors).

Don't you see?
After Obama's Department of Justice gun running fiasco where the sending of guns to the drug cartels cover was blown -- a program that was designed to inflame the gun violence to win the so-called voters hearts and minds -- to pass tougher USA guns laws. They now need a new crisis and stage to play victims on.. and lo and behold you're looking at it.
Oh we tried everything and look at all the bodies...
They don't want the violence stopped. They have a personal political agenda to run here and the people are their tools, their chattel.
Oh and that reminds me..
Like the state has money to throw away in constitutional court battles. Here's another one.
The changes to the Illinois law that was up for vote in Springfield to allow the audio recording of LEO's in public during their time on duty was shut down.
The Illinois lawmakers had an opportunity to right a wrong, an opportunity to save taxpayer money on future costly court battles and they failed.
Now as much as many people would like to keep the recording law just the way it is the fact of the matter is that at least two trial court judges have already ruled the law to be unconstitutional.
And let's face it, you don't see anyone rushing to the Supreme court to get those decision overturned now do you? So there's no faith that Illinois would win that battle.
So the taxpayers are going to pay and we are going to waste money and time tying up the court system attempting to enforce laws that we know are unconstitutional.
Tell me how it makes sense.
To keep a law on the books that's unconstitutional, have police sworn to uphold the constitution and then arrest people using a law that violates what they swore to uphold.
Are you kidding me?
This will end in a huge civil rights lawsuit and who has the money to blow on that?
The State legislature just doesn't care. It's not their money. They'll take it from the pensions when the claims start to roll in and then cry for higher taxes all created from their ignorance.
More importantly....
Why have we elected lawmakers that do not understand the US Constitution or don't care about it and do nothing but write laws that challenge it's meaning?
It's not just one or two people either. It's the majority of our representatives because look at the votes!
The sob's want a gun ban and they pass a law. They want a recording ban and they pass another law..and on and on without any consideration if the laws they write will stand up to a constitutional challenge.
We need to do better than this people. What's the point of even having a constitution? Just write whatever you like and let the people try and challenge that its wrong IF they can find the time and the money to do it hahahah..the joke is on all of us believing in that Constitution krap that is suppose to protect our rights.
Seriously.
I'm surprise that they didn't pull out the old "the horse is already out of the barn speech like they did during the Mexico flu H1N1 outbreak.
I think it is a good message to point out that all citizens share some responsibility for being vigilant about crime in their neighborhoods. Too many people in some areas of the city just sit back and let the crime proliferate by not getting involved with a simple phone call to police or detectives when crimes occur. If you can't take pride in your neighborhood and city then what will you do when your neighborhood is lost? At some point parents have to police their children. Everyone has to take some level of responsibility.
"Mayor Rahm Emanuel today called on residents to help police take back their neighborhoods in the wake of a spate of shootings around Chicago."
Did rahm just give the citizens a green light, cause the only way to take back the streets is to send a bunch of the hardcore thug motherfuckers to the morgue. Let them fear every citizen walking by as a possible "q ship".

OT:
How about that NYC eh?
For five nights in a row Bloomberg's personal army has assigned anywhere from 150 to 500 NYPD officers to stand hours upon hours around the Union Sq. park getting paid overtime.
I don't get why any of these officers should be upset with these demonstrators. It's easy money. They should be laughing all the way to the bank.
Yeah, the job may not be what they signed on for. Maybe even a little humiliating as the job is like babysitting or more like a public works position now than it is crime fighting job. But so what, look at that take home pay baby.
To prevent the sidewalk from being blocked by protestors NYPD puts up barricades which instead block the sidewalks for everyone's safety.
NYPD unloads and installs these barricades making the park area look like a huge playpen. The protestors occasional knock it all down and NYPD stands it back up again scolding the kids "don't touch that junior".
The white shirts walk around with a bullhorn telling people that they can't lay down on the sidewalk or they'll be arrested. They later tell the protestors that they can't stand were they have been standing all night because they'll be arrested. The law in NYC changes now by the minute.
So the officers wait for midnight so that they can declare the park is closed. A park that when you ask any New Yorker they will tell you that the park has never been closed in their lifetime. But now that a political discussion is taking place in the park it must be stopped -- so new signs are installed that now say "No rallying".
For the last five nights NYPD amasses their officers around the park and get this. Each and every nite they now have to have the park cleaned so the people there have to be pushed off the public sidewalks too to allow streets and sans in.
Never before in the history of NYC has the city become so concerned about the cleanliness of the sidewalks now around this park.
You know it's not like NYC has a reputation for concern about the rats and garbage in their streets in NYC before. So good job Occupiers for that eh!
How much longer will the NYC taxpayer support this circus?
After 9/11 there was much respect for the NYPD and now they are losing the people. It's not about law and order anymore it's about politics and everyone knows it.
After midnight each nite hundreds of NYPD are still standing guard around a park like its a military installation while the park is being cleaned is used as an excuse to harass freedom of assembly.
It looks bad. It looks like NAZI Germany. What's next is NYPD going to take the protestors to the showers....then it will really be like Auschwitz maybe.
Ironically as you see these youtube vids of the NYPD standing guard over a public park that the public built, and paid for, and are being denied access to, there's a monument in the background. That George Washington monument was placed there to honor the freedom of speech and right to assemble in the very place NYPD is denying it. That's irony. Turnaround NYPD and look at it tonight and think about it.
Think about that!.
Go to the latest notes from CONSTAT where he BITCHES about coppers being off and taking time due on the weekends..... This has to stop he says.
Make sure you boys and girls have Probable Cause on those contact cards.
If gangbangers & lawbreakers don't own this city, then:
Why have possibly more children been shot in Chicago then in Iraq?
Why did our new Top Cop go in to a black church & make false statements about government sponsored racism & then have a summit with gangs --asking -- them to stop killing innocent people as though one could change the behavior of gangbangers with mere threats?
Why are there so few patrolmen throughout Chicago neighborhoods? As a life-long Chicagoian, I can't remember a time where I have see so few police in my an the other neighboorhoods I visit.
Why does a couple exiting the Red Line on St. Patricks Day have two guns flashed in their faces by likely gangbangers for merely exiting the train?
Why are illegal aliens many of which are members of hard core mexican gangs coddled by the irresponsibility of Chicago being a Sanctuary City??
Chicago IS owned by gangbangers because it IS a sanctuary for them!
The mayor is a rat-fuck Chicago Democrat politician attempting to brainwash Chicagoians as he, Quinn, Madigan, Chicago aldermen and the Chicago media piss down there back and tells them it's raining.
It's Saturday and passing a Chicago Tribune newspaper box I saw an article with the headline, I paraphrase, Some Analyists Say High Gas Prices Are Good-Growing Economy! Is it a good fucking thing Chicago has the highest gas prices in the Country??? What Bullshit. What Brainwashing. I was going buy the rag to read the whole article and reply to the Editor but why waste the time and money. The are in the Tank for the Chicago Kleptocrats & 'Bangers.
I'm no George Bush fan as he and the elite Republicans contributed to the Chicago Way going to Washington.
When he was President and prices where high, not this high, there where HUNDREDS an HUNDREDS of articles in the papers pounding him for it!
The fact an article like that is in today's paper shows there is no un-biased (non-pro Chicago Way) so called major paper in this city.
In other places it's been reported two Fast & Furious players buying and crossing the Border were caught and released by the FBI. There names are Patino and Acosta. Nothing in the local paper about that!!
The gangbanger & law-breakers own this city because we continue to count on sell-out fucks to protect us. Until that stops, nothing will change.
Not a Cop
Can we PLEASE march on the Mayor now!! I am sick and tired of this arrogant prick already.
OFF TOPIC! Just venting.
If anyone is traveling on 1-80 in Nebraska near mm 299 beware.
I was stopped & ticketed by Nebraska Highway Patrol for Speeding 85/75. (10 over) the limit. I do not believe I was speeding at all & no way I was over 80 if that. Arguing with the Trooper was impossible & not worth it...
I spoke with the trooper (J. Bauer)after the stop. I stated that I don't believe I was speeding. He told be to join him back in his car. I then displayed my IDs & told him that I am a recently retired Officer & he stated I don't care where you worked, that doesn't matter....I then received my ticket for 10 over & the choice of paying it/finding Guilty or driving 10 hours each way to contest it next month.
I hope some of our dedicated officers can provide Nebraska State Patrol Officer J. BAUER #1 Troop-C or any of his fellow officers courtesy should they visit our city.

Vigilante Justice
A few posts back on another thread I had a made the statement that if the laws where not enforced and enforced evenly and fairly soon that the system will break down with the police forces across the nation losing the peoples will to support them, and that would result in vigilante justice with people taking matters into their own hands.
Some mocked and laughed
Oh we're scared like little girls... it was tin foil hat conspiracy stuff.
Nevertheless as I had previously said. This is not a threat it's an observation of what I see in the streets and what people like Rahm don't see or refuse to see.
So who's laughing now....

Trayvon Martin case: New Black Panthers offer $10,000 bounty for capture of George Zimmerman
SANFORD — Members of the New Black Panther Party are offering a $10,000 reward for the "capture" of George Zimmerman, leader Mikhail Muhammad announced during a protest in Sanford today.
When asked whether he was inciting violence, Muhammad replied defiantly saying: "An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth."
The bounty announcement came moments after members of the group called for the mobilization of 5,000 black men to capture George Zimmerman, the Neighborhood Watch volunteer who shot Trayvon Martin last month.

Dancers can only count to eight.
Five-six-seven-eight, and now turn and spin, and turn and spin. Now bow to the NATO dignitaries in the east and turn and spin and one and two. Let's kick those legs higher ladies... hey you with the white shirts on...we're talking to you.
Anyway theyt word it, put it, whatever, they should never had disbanded MSF and TRU, regardless of what you district guys say in jealous rants, it worked, so did SOS, an overview is that you need specialized units to move on a moments notice, no disrespecting beat cars and beat officers, but they are too busy with BULLSHIT Calls, and some just don't have the ambition to do anything but show up for work and that's all. Garray should know that Chicago is not New York or New Jersey, our folks and gangbangers are just plain different and special, so our our revs and pols.
A few weeks ago I filed a misdemeanor battery complaint with CPD against someone. Never heard back from the detectives in 019.
Maybe do the job?
You can Spin, Spin, Spin things on and on, but there's really only what actually is, and that IS that crime, Murder, and Violence are going up, up, up since the Rhammy and Gary Administration took over, and they were quite bad before that with FLED. None of these Brain-Surgeons have really done anything significant to justify their over-inflated Salaries.
Stay safe and don't risk your life for the people who gave you a 2 % raise. Wait it out till Republicans sweep the Elections again in November 2012, then hopefully these Democommies from Shitcago will start to get the message.

Well everyone knows that putting more cops on the street is not the answer. That is why we are moving all the admin jobs to the beat cars and restricting time off so we can have more cops on the street.
Wait....what?

Sure, but not so outraged that he'll take blame for it, when just a couple of months ago, he was taking credit for the lack of killings.

2) Those damn guns, going out & shooting all by themselves.

Ahhh the New Life Church. The city's new crime lab.
Is that what they are calling it now instead of the crystal ball unit?
Why they must have a crime database down there that would put the FBI to shame eh?
See that's where he screwed up.
Whenever I have a problem on a scale like this I always ask:
"What would Oprah do?"
...and then I do that.
Maybe at the next park clubhouse meeting when the city is reaching out to the community they could put a few stickers or something on some of the chairs. Then, at the end of the meeting they could hand out prizes to the people sitting in those chairs with the stickers.
For nice stuff. You know....like leather holsters so you don't have to run holding you side anymore and discount cards for ammo and stuff like that..
/sarcasm
So, so outraged.
The wife was safely in Brussels with the Governor eating Chicago style pizza and listening to a Chicago Blues band partying it up.
Hizz honor was on an out of town ski trip with the rest of the family while the city burns.
The city and state are broke and can't pay their bills and we're flying these clowns all over the place to impress some foreign dignitaries trying to present an illusion that we're a world class city. Hey don't worry there' still money we can get our hands on in those city pensions if we need to.
I have to wonder if the Governor pulled out one of those bankrolls while he was there. You know the ones. You get a big stack of singles and put the twenty on the outside and roll it up with a rubber band to show how world class you are.
I'm impressed!
When will the media suckholes do a story of black on black homicides from 1962-2012 In Chicago. My estimate would be around 20,000 plus. Ignoring the violence doesn't do anyone any good.
It looks bad. It looks like NAZI Germany. What's next is NYPD going to take the protestors to the showers....then it will really be like Auschwitz maybe.

Also, it is important to note that it appears the City is once again using Homicide "incidents" rather than Homicide "victims" in their numbers (One shooting with 3 dead equals 1 homicide under the City's spin doctors).

OUTSTANDING.
and all the retaliations can then be listed as one as they are related.
"After returning from his ski-trip to Utah with his kids, he said he went straight to the New Life Church to find out more details on the gun violence..."
A. Utah. Try to understand the word "shameless."
B. Is some "New Life Church" now the official clearing house for accurate information on firearms-related violence?
>pfft<
McCarthy ran to St. Sabina's before he even saw his new office -- now this.
These revs are going to be the death of us all.

Oh, for the love of God, shut up, Andy.
You look like such a geek in those basketball shoes.
Do you have an overactive thyroid or something? Jesus.
### SCC, HERE ARE SOME NUMBERS ***
# of Homicide victims (Shortshanks)
17 May 10 - 17 May 11(1 year): 531
Rahm's inauguration 17 May 11
# of Homicide victims (Rahm)
17 May 11 - 23 Mar 11(<1year): 555
Rahm is already 24 homicides ahead of Shortshanks!! With 7 more weeks to go!! Rahm is most likely looking at a 10% increase in homicides under his watch!!!
This is not a month to month comparison (like the spin doctors like to trot out) but a yearly total. Every homicide for the next seven weeks will be added to the 24, and then you will have Rahm's homicide numbers vs. Shortshanks!

USA CASUALTIES FROM OPERATION ENDURING FREEDOM.
2010 - 499
2011 - 418
2012 - 051 (so far)

More people are dying in the streets of Chicago each year then Americans fighting under OEF.
While the above is for the calender years you can go to the link and break it down for the same months that you have done the stats for. I don't expect there would be a statistical meaningful difference.
Showcase that mayor!
Another handgun fee is what is needed not to fund the E/R's and the EMT's right, that'll fix it.
Hell we need to fund the city morgue for funerals for the poor so the bodies don't start piling up again creating a health hazard.
Showcase what we have to offer.

How about: What is the NUMBER of SWORN Chicago Police Officers employed at or near the beginning of Rahm's term? (Sworn, no sneaking in Detention Aides, Clerical Personal, etc.)
What is the NUMBER of SWORN Chicago Police Officers employed now? (Plus or minus let's say 1%)
You will not be able to get that information, Phil Ponce passed up a good opportunity to ask McG just that on Chicago Tonight recently.
Mr. Mayor you said in essence but not verbatim, that the entire city should be outraged at the shooting of an innocent 6 year old. Not just the neighborhoods were the shooting occurred. Mr. Mayor we are totally outranged. We are outraged at your incompetence. Your selection of Police Chief and Fire Chief are questionable at best. Your downsizing of the CPD and CFD tells us all loud and clear that you are not interested in Public Safety. By downsizing you have moved officers from safer neighborhoods to the most violent areas. Your cuts and changes on paper look good, however, numbers on paper stay on paper. Criminals travel and will always look for the path of least resistance. Logic should tell you they will be committing crimes and creating violence in the less policed areas. You have depleted the CPD's support units to bolster Patrol. You have created an environment were not only citizen safety in jeopardy but that of first responders as well. We are outraged at your ineptitude. Citizens on Patrol didn’t work in police academy VI, privatization of police will not work and CAPS will not fully function without support units. You cannot have your cake and eat it too. Time to hire more Police and Firefighters!
I was chatting with the Calumet Park PD Chief at an event this past week and being a retiree that's always looking for a sidegig, I asked if he had a security team. He looked at me like my head was on fire and said "You know I'm the POLICE Chief right? Not the Fire." "I'm armed." I don't think the residents would appreciate an entourage like some folks have. Then he chuckled as he shook his head and left the event after a brief appearance. He told me it was a busy night in Cal Park. Can we have that guy?
Rahm is an imbicile. Of course the streets belong to the gangs. Ten dead, 38 wounded in shootings on the streets in about three days. With numbers like that, if the gangs do not own them, the coroner must. Can you imagine how it must be to work at the ME office? People from outside this area who may read this blog: STAY OUT OF CHICAGO. Your life will likely depend on it.
Hey! Didn't Flamin' Tutu just get back from Utah?
You know... Utah?
A state that has empowered it's CITIZENS with the ability to carry/carry concealed firearms to PROTECT themselves?
You know... a state that allows the ULTIMATE in the exercise of true citizenship? The right to defend self and defend others in dire need of defending by the ultimate means?
Now why would an avowed yellow-pinky, gun grabbing trotskyite parasite & opportunist in plutocrat's clothing; sully himself going to a place where men are free?
He could've stayed where he can step out on his front porch to the adoration and adulation of these divorced from reality - head in the sand with "kick me" signs on their asses masses here in the democratic people's socialist nirvana known as Chicago?
We bet he rolled his eyes, sucked his teeth in outrage...
"Are those GUNS?"
"When I get back to my adoring people, (no doubt those Utahans weren't kissing his l'il narrow ass in the manner he has grown accustomed) I SHAN'T let them to have freedoms like these!"
Rahm says, "Hooray for me, eff you..."
Oh Rahmbo hire more cops. Dumbass
"The city is in decline. It was when Daley was doing his last years."
Daley ran the city into the ground.
The city's current state of decay is his legacy.
"World-class city, all the way.
Ready for Nato!
Towers down, no communication.
Yup.
World-class."
Third-world class, that is.
"Rahm being on vacation while the whole place goes to shit is a page right out of the Obama playbook."
Yup. Even that POS Daley was only out of town when scandals were about to break!
"Theres more POs working inside than works the street on 1st watch. Afternoons is pack filled with little pets with no experience."
You obviously don't know how the game is played here, do ya', kid?
"You hear nothing from them because a majority of them are black on black crimes, I guess that's O.K. with them."
Nobody cares about black-on-black crime. It's their dirty little (not so) secret.
Nobody cares about patrol, either.

I called the data help desk just to see if the network was down. I just got the run around no one could give me a straight answer. Then went to A1 to get the mount tested along with the PDT. They said everything checked out ok. I explained what had been occurring for two weeks. The techs called someone in charge and low and behold several towers were off line. I thanked them for finally giving me a reason why cad is down. Now why didn't OEMC didn't tell us is beyond me. Goes to show you that this city is so disorganized and lack of communication within agencies.

I nearly pissed myself laughing after finding out that a total goofball got a foreman promotion at OEMC. No background in radio work or an FCC license. His daddy was a foreman, so he got to be a foreman too. The only difference was that his old man had brains.
How come we never had a funny supt? In these perilous times of recession a funny supt would be a welcome change. Give it some thought coal-eyes.
Never mind the real numbers. CRIME is Down. Trust me and do not leave our fine city. safer streets.We will bring a higher education, less crime, and safer streets. This is because the streets are ours not the criminals.

McCarthy is a joke.
That's not funny enough for you?
OFF TOPIC! Just venting.
If anyone is traveling on 1-80 in Nebraska near mm 299 beware.
I was stopped & ticketed by Nebraska Highway Patrol for Speeding 85/75. (10 over) the limit. I do not believe I was speeding at all & no way I was over 80 if that. Arguing with the Trooper was impossible & not worth it...
I spoke with the trooper (J. Bauer)after the stop. I stated that I don't believe I was speeding. He told be to join him back in his car. I then displayed my IDs & told him that I am a recently retired Officer & he stated I don't care where you worked, that doesn't matter....I then received my ticket for 10 over & the choice of paying it/finding Guilty or driving 10 hours each way to contest it next month.
I hope some of our dedicated officers can provide Nebraska State Patrol Officer J. BAUER #1 Troop-C or any of his fellow officers courtesy should they visit our city.
Retired Ranger

Slow the fuck down. Now that you put this officers name out there,why don't you be a man and put yours you COWARD. And retired ranger doesn't impress me or others.
Rahm when to Utah wit his kids cause it is SAFE there. Honest people there pack guns, criminals go to jail, and crime is low.
TGILITEXAS. Unions here have limits on their power and citizens do defend themselves.
I hope the light comes on back in Chicago and the ghost of Al Capone gets exorcised. I know your citizens, like ours, would want to be free and run their own lives.
I bet tiny dancer has a Utah CCW.Anbody with contacts out there????
nobody cares about me either.
You're not just venting. You said his name and you're trying to start a bitch fight with an ENTIRE STATE of troopers because you got a ticket for speeding. Do you think you may be a bit self-centered and selfish? While you were out-of state speeding your ass off, Chicago cops were getting shot out their fucking shoes so nobody gives a fuck about your ratsnitch self or your fucking ticket. You were speeding. Pay it asshole. I don't care how old you are, someone should slap the shit out of your mother.
"a week ago I filed a misdemeanor....." HEY-This is Chicago! If someone hit you go kick their ass. If you need help just ask and people will help you. You'll see. Now get out there you ass kicker.
Why would he need a CCW when he has had armed security for himself and his priviledged family for decades? I'd hate to be him or any boss that bought their way in. Users use and users get used. They spend their entire lives wondering if they have any real friends at all. Don't wonder. You don't. None of you.
.........then Rham twirls and twirls.
