They're Still Coming

Maybe not as many (although they claim they will be many), but they're still on the way:
  • Although the G8 Summit has moved to Camp David, protestors say they still plan on coming to Chicago in May and they're making changes so they can move forward with what's expected to be a massive march on the NATO Summit.

    Organizers of the protest movement say they are gaining momentum.

Of course, they have to say that. Just like Rahm and McG8 have to continue with the fiction that the Department is up to full strength, the training is more than enough to handle 50,000 protestors running amok and crime is down citywide.

The CPD lies, the protestors lie, and the officers actually on the front lines pray.

What's with this helmet audit thing? Are they trying to figure out which helmets the (few available) plastic shields will go on? And everybody else is on their own?

They are bringing in "European Legal Observers" to protect their rights. Code words for them planning a making a shitstorm.........still no real training given to us as a whole.

The term "setting up to fail" comes to mind for Rahm's plan to continue fucking us over.

So I gotta say, please have these bosses stop showing up to these meetings and trying to pretend that they know what the hell they're talking about. Yesterday at the TLOC Alexander looked like the ass he is and last week at the TLO Kirby did the same. Always gotta go and can't answer any questions. These bosses are useless. Protect yourselves and your partners at these summits because the upper echelon doesn't have any idea what the hell is coming. Whatever your rank is Alexander, you should be embarrassed that two officers from NIAGARA FALLS came here and shed more light on these protesters than you could. You are a joke!

Yup. The prospect of G8 motivated 'em. They've gotten organized. They've got momentum. They'll be here. All then need to do is come up with some reason to be against NATO. And don't worry - they think everything's bad, so a motivating reason to protest NATO will come easy.

They want to make sure no one (like me) still has a "Buco" helmet from the 1970's.

Also, to make sure you have the correct star number one the helmet.

Yes, these assholes are still coming. It is as if the Grateful Dead were still around and all these (violent) heads are coming to town. Perhaps we should deputize the Maniac Latin Disciples (Rahm) and let the visiting assholes deal with them! They are going to want weed and MLD will be there to serve, protect, probably not. Do not risk your own lives over this un-wanted bullshit coming to our beloved shithole. Kind of like the Stones letting the Hell's Angels handle security at Altamont. This way no injured officers, just punks with broken heads and shitty deals on weed.
Should be interesting, be safe and watch each other's backs.

I am not a doctor, and don't pretend to know what I am talking about with this, but I had yearly checkup today, and was chit chatting with the Doc. I've been seeing him for years, and I trust his opinion. He asked if we are prepared for May, and then thought about it for a second and asked if I had my hepatitis A vaccine. It's been so long since I had any of those shots I told him I didn't know. Due to what may be encountered in May he suggested that I get the shots. I haven't heard anything from FOP about this, or at the class for our expert crowd control training. This is just an FYI for everyone that may be going downtown for the festivities. Like I said, this is not something I know much about, but thought it could be useful info. I'll stop thinking now. Stay safe everyone.

Maybe we can get a clue from events occurring around the globe.

(video) The scene in Mortreal last night turned ugly at The Anti Police Brutality/Student Tuition Protest. 150+ arrested

(video) Like coming attractions of what has been invited here no? We hope not but... Looks like a good size crowd however.

Yeah, it's always fun until the flash-bangs, rubber bullets, bottles, and tear gas starts flying and someone gets hurt isn't it?

(video) Meanwhile down in St Louis last night the Midwest regional Occupy group kicked off their protest actions.

Occupy had representatives from at least 18 different Occupy groups representing at least six different states.

It's hard to tell what exactly happened from the citizens videos posted but what appeared to begin as a peaceful action ended with about 14 arrests and some cracked skulls ( two protestors hospitalized) when about 50 officers some swinging batons are said to have charged the group for no reason as protestors left a park. Haven't heard of any officer injuries. There was one cruiser that got some windows busted out. Maybe it will become clearer as more video is posted. If what the protestors are saying proves true some officers will likely be stripped, but you know how that goes. Time will tell.

All it takes is one. One bottle thrower on their side or one over zealous officer on our side to enable the propaganda war that taints everyone in the respected group while escalating violence.

Anyways, while there was only somewhere around 150~200 protestors at last nights action in St. Louis you can bet on several things.

1.) The police standing in front of Bank of America in the videos come off as hired thugs assigned by the corporate owned political puppets to protect the corporate banking crimes that the president overlooks, refuses to have his regulators charge and prosecute, and thereby are making a mockery out of our entire justice system.

This doesn't portray the police on the side of right, law and order, but on the side of might, money and greed. You will put up with the frauds and crime perpetrated by them and like it is the message. We're more concerned about city ordinance curfew violations than we are with massive frauds effecting the global economy and what is causing these protestors to take to the streets in the first place.

Heh..must be that "Broken Windows" crime mythology where you concentrate on the low priorities because it may prevent the high priority crimes in the future. Nice diversion if you're buying it.

The presidents comments that no crimes have been committed when it comes to the banking fiasco is a lie. Not because the protestor say so but what the FBI and others have said including what has surfaced is various hearings. Who do you serve -- who do you protect is the well known mantra.

2). While the numbers in St Louis so far are relatively small the number of locations represented is larger and the representatives in attendance will return home with stories of how things went down which may prove to be a motivator to some for their Chicago visit.

Aw, s__t. Their major media outlet is that horrible RT News from Putin's vicious new Russia. I understand that "Occupy Wall Street" has only about $50,000 left in the kitty, and saw them today on RT, still huddled on the New York sidewalks, stinking and farting and scratching themselves.

Not very impressive.

Remember the Use of Force chart -- always go one higher.

A thrown rock or bottle could kill a person.

Oh, it's you again. And again, and again.

This one must think that this disingenuous material is very corrosive and demoralizing. Anyone can spot the college-kid Marxist jargon, as well as that whiny, repulsive assertion that "I can push you, but if you push back you're as bad as me so you can't touch me."

I think I'm trying to say "Hey. 'Occupy.' Go fuck yourselves."

I wasn't thinking of CPD inspectors when someone was recently asking about "where do policemen party after the St. Patrick's Day Parade?" I was thinking of this asshole and others like him. As I said, no info on "muster points" (!) and the like for Occupy. Any copper'd find another copper by just walking up to him or her...

As acknowledged "leaders" of a demonstrably violent movement whose credo is to "Use Any Tactic," they had better watch themselves.

Push someone's wife around on the street, burn someone's car, smash up someone's business, and even if you can't identify the scum with the rags around their faces, everyone knows who the shot-callers are and where they live.

Your estimate is off by about two weeks. They aren't arriving the day Nato starts. The big push is to move into Chicago on May first.

And, if you think they're just coming for a three day weekend, you're living in the Twilight Zone.

We know there is going to be a huge mess to clean, why let any real people get hurt in the process? After pooky and taytay are down with the hipsters, maybe that movement will have a much needed reality check.

Keep (or start) working on your stamina, leg, arms and inner strength and fitness, we are all going to be dealing at some time during May with these assholes. They are planning disruptions all over the city and suburbs.

Put a crowbar in your wallet and get a set of BDUs and some heavy boots. Carry duct tape if your are one of those who wasn't able to get a new face shield. Granola and power bars in BDU pockets will be your friend.

To all of you planning on hitting the medical in May--YOU ARE ALL ASSHOLES FOR WILLINGLY FUCKING OVER THE OFFICERS WHO STILL HAVE SENSE OF HONOR AND DUTY TO YOUR FELLOW POs.

I don't give a damn about property destruction, but I do give a shit about my fellow officers and having their collective backs when the shit hits the fan, and it will.

Is there ANY city PD in the entire country that could handle a rowdy crowd of that size? The riots of the 60s proved that even a few thousand rioters was more than any city dept could handle and that was when wanton violence against the rioters was considered acceptable by many police agencies and much of the public.
