Wrigleyville Riot
- Authorities shutdown part of a North Side street after multiple reports of fights and general chaos were reported in Chicago’s Wrigleyville, Lakeview neighborhood.
Sunday, around 2:26 a.m., police were notified of a street brawl at the intersection of North Clark Street and West Cornelia Avenue.
A 911 caller said ten people were fighting in the street, said police dispatch.
At 2:37 a.m., an officer at the scene said the people in the area were “out of control” and there were “cars and people, everywhere”.
Shortly thereafter, authorities blocked southbound traffic at North Clark and West Addison Streets.
It's like the first wilding of spring!
A warm week on tap, summer on the way, baseball season hasn't even started yet and manpower still decreasing while all resources are being directed to the badlands of 007 and 011. Look for a boatload of these "mini-riots" popping up all over the "quieter" areas of the city as the ne'er-do-wells go to where there is no police presence and easy pickings.

Nice showboating in the helicopter before the SS parade Sunday.
It wasn't that big of deal. Nothing more than lil Sgt Cowboy Roy blowing things out of proportion. This guy must not have had toys to play with when he was younger. I guess his 011 war stories don't help you break up a fight between two yuppies.
Possible 80 degree temps this week, watchout! The manpower cristi is being felt citywide, don't get hurt or killed responding 99 with little to no backup.
Does anyone rrecall when we had an unseasonably early warm Spring day about 10 years ago and Daley was driving with a group of Ikea bigwigs to view the proposed Southside location for a new Chicago location. They ended up driving directly into a State St project mini riot?
Needless to say, those Swedes pissed themselves and Ikea ditched that I'll fated ideaX lickety split.
Was Daley irate and for months too.
This is just the beginning just wait until the natives get restless ufrom all this heat.
Pop, pop, bang, bang...bang....
It gonna rock G!
Let the bodies fall!
Hope the morgues got some room.
Flash mobs going to be tearing it up this week.
Time to go shopping!
clark street needs a detail team.... the new 019 district has 6 tact teams!!! Why do they need 6 tact teams? once nato is done they need to make a clark street team like division st....also they need to block clark street off from newport to addison ( for all vehicles) ...always gridlock and cars block intersection !!! what a mess....good luck
Wait till 018 blowsup, they are going to tear it up. Chicago and the Garry and Rahm Show will again be national news.
Will Kenny survive the fallout?
I have a feeling that it is going to be a wild week.
Northside nonsense, that's why southside did not want anything to do with their drunken debauchery at the southside Irish parade. Southside kept all the crap from the northside away and looks what happens....
Sounds like way too much green beer.
Was that nine minutes to arrive on scene....
As much as people complained about the yuppies and liberals in Wrigleyville, they will be deep missed compared to the new element who has discovered this area
This is a typical Sat night on Clark St. It's been happening like this the past few months. With the new 019/023 merge, there was even talk about a late night "entertainment district" detail. Not sure if that's still a possibility or if they are doing it, as I work days. Baseball season is only a few weeks away, and NATO is the same weekend as Cubs/Sox at Wrigley. That should be a great time.
What bleeders ant, bleeders get. Good luck now that you got shit on your doorstep. A few thousand more police would be glow right about now. Welcome to my world. Let the bleeding begin. Then again it might just be suburbanites celebrating st Patricio day
Perhaps more free stuff from the government would settle things down?
What "kind" of people?
Michigan Avenue was out of control on Saturday night. The wilding was crazy in 018 . There wasn't enough manpower to stop it. North Michigan Avenue will stop being a tourist and shopper destination soon.
Yuppies beating each other with their penny loafers?
Keep closing stations, lower man power and save those pennys!
GO 09-01-06 will be printed in blue blood!
This incident was no more than Sgt RI talking into the radio and making stupid decisions as usual
(OT) Boys and girls be careful out there! Last night a CPD copper who works at in a unit.,on her way home from work,stops at the food for less on 77th and cicero in Burbank. Shops comes out of store 3 animals rob her,she gets 1 round off misses goes to hospital. Burbank calls CPD and the coppers sit on her house, the jagoffs that did this must of seen the coppers there as the contents of the coppers purse were found near her home!
Now the copper that was robbed is ok, she lives in the hood east end of 008, so the bad guys get the purse,and rush to her home to burglarize it. Think about this! You have your family at home this happens, the jags get into your home what could happen.To the trolls no names,or unit,or hospital. Be careful everywhere the animals are getting bolder!
maybe the crowd had just watched the new playstation tv commercial showing that the CUBS had just won the world series?
SCC, don't blow this out of proportion. It was too hot on the street and they were closed for safety reasons.
Soon the beaches will have to be closed when it gets too hot there just as they were last year.
Now keep listening for more communist party, I mean chicago machine messages of truth for the people.
Hail Rahm!
Those gosh darn kids. I bet they are from Buffalo Grove, or Palos.
At one time, I believed that the sight of a robin, blossoming crocuses and baseball were certain harbingers of spring. Nahhhh! Not anymore.
With the Ides of March and St. Paddy's Day upon us, the only certain indicator will be roving bands of flash-mobbing Amish youth "picking Apples" and Air Jordans from hapless vics and tony boutiques on the Magnificent Mile and the Gold Coast. Predictably, local media will ignore these rites of springtime and guzzle the Kool-Aid gushing from Fort Fellatio and City Hall.
Yes. "In spring, a (police officer's) fancy turns to thoughts of" 'what the fuck' as the northbound Red Line trains packed with young "revelers" roll into 018. Good times!
AH! SPRINGTIME IN CHICAGO!
Or where drunk Wrigleyville backwards-caps-with-sunglasses and tribal tattoos congregate. This neighborhood doesn't need any imported asshats, it grows its own.
That isn't anything compared with the NEW and IMPROVED St. Patricks Day parade after party. There were so many fights taking place on the street that one bar near 103rd St and Western closed down way early after a 10-1 was called. Tons of teenagers pissing in the back alleys. Drunken fools roaming through Beverly gangways. The Day should be renamed DAY TO DO WHAT WE WANT BECAUSE WE CAN! The total day was shameful to say the least.
Clark street has been full of ghetto trash and suburbanite "beer muscle tough guys" for years now.
Rham says not a problem. This occurred in a re-structured district thus there are more police officers in that area.
People are acting like it's 95 when it's only 50 -- and it's not like we had a long, hard winter, either.
We only had about 20" of snow this past winter, much easier than the last three which were each 60"-plus.
Not much of a "cabin fever" excuse here, just a__holes drinking, all with the feeling they can't quite put their finger on that they're somehow missing out on something.

FDIC Closes William Beavers-Linked New City Bank in Chicago
Updated: Friday, 09 Mar 2012, 6:38 PM CST
"Chicago - Regulators have closed New City Bank in Chicago -- a bank that counts indicted Cook County Commissioner William Beavers as a "vice chairman."
"This is the 13th bank to fail this year. By this time last year, 23 had been shuttered.
"The Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. said New City Bank had $71.2 million in assets and $72.4 million in deposits as of Dec. 31.
"The FDIC did not find another lender to take over the bank's operations, so it will mail out checks to depositors in the amount of their insured funds.
"The agency said it needs to obtain information from New City Bank customers to determine the number of uninsured deposits at the bank. The FDIC insures up to $250,000 per depositor.
"The bank failure is expected to cost the deposit insurance fund $17.4 million.
"New City Bank is the second FDIC-insured bank in Illinois to fail this year."

"New City Bank?" The first time I ever heard of it was in the radio news story saying that it had failed.
Faster than the eye can see!
Things are like that today.
OT - VERY IMPORTANT YOU READ...
Go to www.breitbart.com. See Chicago's Danny Davis walking out of The Unity Center..the Communist Party headquarters in Bridgeport..3339 S. Halsted. Davis is walking out with an award in his hands when he is stopped by a Breitbart reporter and asked if Davis is aware that The Unity Center is a communist headquarters. Davis would answer no questions.
Go to www.freerepublic.com/~etl/ and view an indepth listing of links to every article written about oboma, his parents, wife, all his subversive connections, communist politicians in Chicago..in short, anything and everything pertaining to oboma and his socialist/communist/marxist/fascist/revolutionary connections. This is an extraordinary collection of links on articles that people, who read only what oboma controlled media allows to be printed in rags like the Tribune or Sun Times, have not been exposed to..the truth about the Democratic Party, the left and oboma.
A vote for any democrat is a vote for socialism, communism, marxism....they are all connected and stand as one.
Read the links, educate yourself and pass it on.
Ahhh..the smell of gunpowder drifting through the air of the porous border regions of Chicago.
Spring is definitely here in the Sanctuary city.
On a related note the web site Trulia has tweeked it's crime maps so that they now show heat maps for violent crime as opposed to just crime in general. Check it out...
=====
Where Violent Crimes Happen
....
So to illustrate where these violent crimes happen, we’ve added a new mode on our Crime Maps which allows you to view the ratio of violent-to-nonviolent crimes. Here, we count crimes such as shootings and assaults as “violent” while petty crimes such as vandalism or theft are “nonviolent.”
...
To show you what we mean, let’s do a deeper dive into Chicago’s crime scene.
When you look at the city through our Crime Maps, there is a lot of crimes being reported downtown along the Chicago River in the Loop and Near North Side as well as pockets of crime in the suburbs.
Let’s talk about what’s happening downtown first. As most locals will tell you, this is a pretty affluent part of the city…so why does it look so shady? To figure this out, we took a closer look at the specific crimes being report and the answer was clear. This area is a prime target for thieves who are looking to rob department stores and cars, and few of these crimes are considered violent.
Now, let’s talk about the suburbs as we turn our attention to the violent crimes map of Chicago. When we look specifically at where there’s a higher proportion of violent crimes, Chicago’s downtown area seems really tame. Where you really need to watch your back is in the suburbs outside the city – which is where there seems to be a lot of crime in general. Dun, dun, dun…
======
Heh..the only problem with the above statement is this. Double-click on the crime map and look closely at the scale. Zoom in or drag the map south or west. The area that they are referring to as the "suburbs" is actually the south and west sides of the city!
Anyways, so if you just want to get robbed or have your car vandalized or stolen you go to the downtown Green Zone where the Fortress of Bullshit is then.
I thought McCarthy was supposed to be concentrating on these minor crimes that are happening downtown because it prevents the major crimes from happening. Broken Windows crime fighting and all that jazz.
The trend on this map that is used by people considering moving to Chicago will be fun to follow as Rahm's 2012 Summer of Summits unfolds.
Book(mark) 'em Danno.
FYI: we are on pace for over 160+ shootings in March(a high I haven't seen in years). With this warm weather we could very well end up with 200 shootings IN MARCH ALONE! Numbers like that don't usually happen until July.
However, homicides are holding steady, on pace for about 31. I do expect that to change this week with the warmer weather.
Stay safe!
WRT: "..and manpower still decreasing.."
================
Yeah..those new hires that Rahm announced just a few days ago to get everyone's attention off of his losing his pride and joy G8 summit.
Do you think we'll see them..or will they only be used to inflate the number of cuts that will be made after the summits to create the illusion of being a hero and caring about the middle class taxpayers, saving the budget?
You know the game.
007 and 011 are job security districts. Like crime is outta control on a daily basis on the northside. We'll be dead and 007 and 011 will still be job security.
SCC,
Off topic:
I am a memebr of the Southside Irish Parade Committee and want to extend the committee's thanks to the men and women of the Chicago Police Department who were assigned to the parade on Sunday, March 11, 2012. Over the last several months, many, including some from CPD said there was no way this parade should ever be allowed to go forward. The Parade Committee work tirelessy with CPD officials to make sure this event was safe and family-oriented. The Chicago Police, under the direction of 22nd District Commander Robert Harbesheimer deserve all the credit for the success of the parade, they committed the proper resources in the right locations to ensure none of the problems of the past were allowed.
Every day of the year the CPD is under the microscope and criticized at the drop of a hat, they deserve much better from the residents of our city.
On behalf of the entire Beverly Morgan Park community we thank you for dedication and service.
Off Topic: Greetings from the UCPD. We've just received word that our illustrious Chief here
has effective immediately fired
all watch commanders (four total).
Reason being? He feels he no longer needs watch commanders;
we presume Lynch will leave overall
supervision of the watches to the
Sgts., unless he begins to lay them all off as well. Even with Doty gone, it appears that cut throat decision making appears to
be the order of the day. All watch commanders were informed that they can apply for three new Commander positions that recently became available. We all had such high hopes for our new Asst. Chief, but it appears that with Chief Stupid at the helm, nothing's going to change. How any supervisor can stay and work here under these poor conditions is beyond me.

Medicaid pays for 94 percent of teen births here, but program can’t be cut
Monday, Mar 12, 2012
* Cutting Medicaid eligibility isn’t going to be easy, or perhaps even possible in some cases…
Medicaid paid for 89,621 Illinois deliveries in 2009, the most recent year for which statistics are available. That was nearly 54 percent of all births, according to the Department of Healthcare and Family Services. The total cost was $890 million. Medicaid plays an even bigger role in births to teen mothers, paying for nearly 94 percent of teen deliveries in 2009.
Since 1989, the federal government has required states to cover pregnant women whose income is at or below 133 percent of the federal poverty level. That’s the equivalent of about $14,800 annually for a single-person household. That’s the minimum states must do.
Illinois goes beyond that, covering pregnant women who make up to 200 percent of federal poverty, or about $22,300 for a single person’s annual household income. Teens who are pregnant are covered up to 300 percent of federal poverty, or about $33,500 for a one-person household.
And a newer federal requirement has tied Illinois to those higher eligibility levels.
The federal health care overhaul, President Barack Obama’s landmark legislation, requires states to keep their Medicaid eligibility stable, barring Illinois and other states from saving money by lowering income ceilings for pregnant women and other groups.

It's like winning the lottery. You can take on one of Rahm's $11/hour welding jobs, still collect Food Stamps to subsidize the corporations profits in the process and still get your baby delivered for free!
Oh and if you were an illegal it's instant citizenship for the kid so you have that whole don't break up the family stuff going for you too.
Come on up and drop anchor while the Governor and mayor preach to us about healthcare cuts for those of us who funded this system.
For those against medicaid providing birth control for women to prevent unwanted pregnancies enjoy the consequences of that decision as the victims not just drop anchor here but they are anchored in poverty eligible for decades of social programs as well. One billion dollars is only the start.
Glad I wasn't there. You could get seriously hurt with all those muscle bound guys swinging their purses.
They need an entertainment detail!!! Downtown is destroyed. Jagoffs everywhere. Clark street is quickly turning to shit. Police stay away from it because heaven forbid they have to arrest someone. There is a handful of officers that will travel Clark on a Friday or Saturday night. When bars empty out no police to be found. Dudes out in front of a certain reggae bar basically frisking drunks for phones and money then when they get their proceeds they disappear back into the bar. They completely intimidate the college kids from the burbs. 018 has 10 coppers on division for 10 bars. zero for Clark. Bangers from 009 and 017 come in groups of ten. 023 got two shitheads from 007 with pistols over the summer. Another guy stabbed 3 times a few weeks ago. What else are they waiting for
A mini-riot happened at the Rino bar yesterday involving drunken St. Patrick parade drinkers of too much green beer in the Beverly neighborhood. The cops shut the bar down only AFTER a really long discussion with the bigwigs only to have another mini-riot to occur a few doors down. The bar is police friendly so have to see how this plays out, because the bar is rumored to have lost thousands of dollars in the melee. What was hilarious was the people trying to get in the bar that was shut down while the cops were on the block TELLING everyone it was shut down. Where was all these private security forces at???? HMMMMM?! Someone was fooling somebody. The alderman wasn't too happy with any of this and said to have wanted to shut down more of western avenue but an unknown black limo pulled up behind a back alley and a meeting was held with a lot of yelling overheard by some neighbors of how this is YOUR neighborhood, DEAL with it. Makes you wonder who was in charge!It seemed a lot of parents were out of town that day because a lot of underage drinking was going on.
hey traffic cop handing out movers to coppers heading to St. Patrick parade detail... u expect back up from the same guys when u r in need? Think twice.
Get used to this kind of nonsense, good tax paying citizens of Wrigleyville. The mayor doesn't feel it's necessary to keep the CPD staffed with the appropriate number of cops. The majority are being sent to work the ghetto even though the "community" doesn't want them there. The thugs quickly adapt, like all good predators do, and know enough to go where there are fewer cops, and that is your neighborhood and others where people actually work for a living and pay their taxes. For those of you who voted for Rahm and the other Democrats who continue to ruin this city, county and state, don't go crying now cause you asked for this shit. For the minority who voted for the Republican candidates, you have my condolences.
OT:
They never give up though. Chipping away the US Constitution, blowing away the taxpayers money.

Court puts fatal bullet in Seattle's gun ban at city parks
OLYMPIA, Wash. - The Washington State Supreme Court put an end Thursday to the city of Seattle's efforts to impose a gun ban at city parks.
Attorneys for the city had asked the high court to overturn a lower court ruling that the gun ban violated state law. But the Supreme Court justices declined to even look at the case, reaffirming that the gun ban is illegal.
The National Rifle Association cheered the ruling, saying that it represents a "final victory" for Seattle gun owners.
"The Washington Supreme Court made the right decision in recognizing that the city violated state law," said Chris W. Cox, executive director of the NRA's Institute for Legislative Action.
But Seattle City Attorney Pete Holmes said the city should be allowed to set policy on property it owns, including a gun ban, to protect the safety of park users.
"They would like to know that no one should have the right to arm themselves in the park that they're sharing with families," he said.
The case began in 2008, when the city of Seattle and then-Mayor Greg Nickels enacted a rule that banned firearms from city parks, community centers and other city properties. That rule was prompted in part by a shooting at the 2008 Northwest Folklife Festival in Seattle that injured two bystanders.
In 2009, the city added another rule that banned guns from parks where children were likely to be present.
In October 2009, the NRA and the Second Amendment Foundation asked a King County Superior Court judge to strike down the rules as a violation of a state law prohibiting localities from enacting this type of ban on guns.
In response, the city replied that the ban was permissible because it was acting in its interest as owner of the park properties.
In 2010, a King County Superior Court judge struck down the gun ban, and the state Court of Appeals later confirmed that ruling. By declining to review the appeals court ruling, the state Supreme Court reaffirmed it, and the gun ban is now history.
But Holmes said the city of Seattle hopes to pursue the issue in the next legislative session, by pushing for a change in the state law that prohibits city gun bans.

Just the yuppies??? Or other elements??
white people be gettin crazy joe
OT
Can someone at fop tell us why contact negotiations have not yet started?
Mikey, is there something you want to tell us?
So what can you tell us about the rioters?
Was it just drunken a-holes from the bars who spilled into the streets?
Or was it something worse - specifically, a "wilding" targeting people & individuals as they came out of the bar late?
Lastly, can you tell us the racial makeup of the brawlers? Mainstream media won't DARE mention these details, but they are VITAL to normal people like me who live nearby.
Thanks
I thought that parade was in the summer time.
They'll behave during the summit. This should all be smooth and orderly.
After all, only ten thousand protesters are coming.
I guess time to redraw the beats up north like they did in 007.
Maybe they can get more police if the area goes to hell......
And it is only going to get worse in 019 now.
Wrigley is always out of control on the weekends...has been for years at those darn bars. bartenders pouring drink after drink and serving drunks.
Bouncers throw them out on the street to let the city deal with the mess after they get the cash. 023 CO was a joke in dealing with them.
No worries. With the relocation of the 19th District station, there are more cops on the street in the Wrigleyville neighborhood.
Of course they'll be using the street to drive wayyyy across town, but, technically there are more cops on the street in Wrigleyville.
So now a bird that is no longer on the endangered species list, the bald eagle, trumps office safety in closing the range on the south side before it ever opens.
It is also a little suspicious of the timing for when this beard was spotted there.
There is nowhere else in the city boundaries in which a range will ever be built

Gotta ask, why if Mike Shields advises his members not to post stuff like this, he publishes the link on the FOP website? Can FOP post a link to the Abbate tape, I haven't seen that enough times. Arrrgggh!
Off Topic:Just want to give a warning to everyone who is trying to make a notification to Central Area Detectives: THERE IS NO ONE ANSWERING THE PHONES. Across every district are stories of attempts to call in investigative alerts, or get names for simple notifications. IT MAY TAKE HOURS. Why? Because the sergeants have gone on strike and are refusing to make detectives answer phones. Angry at all the changes, the sergeants have decided to take it out on all the working coppers out there by making their jobs more difficult. Thanks for getting us involved in your petty sergeant-management-spot bullshit asshats!!!!
Glad I dont hang out there. Now the animals know where the "good victims" are, but real police aren't.
It was terrible! The Cubs fans were throwing people to the ground and doing their hair! Oh the humanity!
Close the new 019 with an answering machine at the Funeral Home to save time.
Transfer the troops to CFD to wash down the rubble of what was Chicago and put up a parking lot.
Maybe the could've sent some of all the resources from 07 & 011 up north!
I don't know any details but I have noticed a lot of shitheads hanging out in wrigleyville lately. Its only a matter of time until all the shitheads figure it out. Take notice ladies and gentlemen the beast is out there and he s knocking on our door. Maybe all the 023rd district coppers should stop worry about looking cool in front of the bars and pay attention.
I guess it was too hot out do they decided to close the street.
time to do some work on da nort side!THE SOUT SIDE HAS BEEN SHORT HANDED FOR YEARS!
Having resources in 011 hasn't helped one bit. It's frigging hysterical. Shooting after shooting. Then big boss man rides through 3 hours after the police were shot at and says hey no one is in the zones! Um we were there and we were shot at...so we had a bit of work to do. Fuck this guy...fuck your zones let these assholes kill each other but fuck with us and game on!

Bald eagles shoot down plan for firing range
Updated 3:39 p.m.
Chicago police are scuttling plans for a shooting range on the Southeast Side less than a month after the discovery of the first bald eagle nest in the city since the 1880s, a city official confirmed today.
---
We can use 63rd and Halsted instead I guess.
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/breaking/chi-chicago-police-bald-eagle-firing-range,0,1622594.story
Can anyone who was working or lives nearby give a description of the rioters?
Now the Racoon goes after the disabled with parking passes. Da Mayor came out today and said that disabled motorist would have to start feeding the parking meters. He even got Sec. fo State Jesse White to chime in with a nod. They say there are way too many cheats out on our streets not paying the meters. I thought we had folks out on the street from White's office and the CPD going after the cheats. The REAL reson the city is knocking out the parking freebees is because the compnay who owns our meters for the next 200 years WANTS TO FUCK US OUT OF EVEN MORE MONEY! All of those corrupt low life politicians who were paid off to pass this insane law have been told to get after the cripples to pay up. How fucking sad our elderly and disabled have to crawl to the fare box and back to their cars just to feed these greedy corrupt bastards at City Hall. This town is finished!
Gee are our upstanding Aldercreatures having second thoughts about backing the Racoon's speed camera law in July. The Racoon's agents say they want to start out real "slow" with the ticket fucking so we can get used to the big one up our asses before they rev things up. I know I made a few calls to my "leaders" and let them know my thoughts. Maybe a lot more voters have contacted these worthless asshole Alderfools and made some threats. Enough is enough!!!
My faith in the "authorities", the media and all their so-called transparency just hit a new low.
Case in point.

----------------
Is there a new ban for using the word child or boy? Is that what it is?
Have the authorities investigating the scene lost the ability to tell if it was a man or a boy that was shot in the head?
Why would that be?
Or is it just the media that has been given new orders to tone done the violence reports because of the images that are conjured up when it happens to be a boy that is shot in the head?
This passes for journalism, for news. It's an embarrassment and they know it.. whomever wrote it must not be very proud about it because there's no name just the tag "Staff Report"
We can only imagine what the reports will look like by summer.
"Something was shot in the head and investigators have no-one in custody" Or. Somebody got hurt by gunshot or a knife....or wait maybe it was just a rock I don't know authorities at police news affairs said.
Maybe it's due to the new GO and all the reports must now go through the Comandante eh? For fear of retaliation.
All the words that conjure up an attacker are being removed from the chosen vocabulary have you noticed.
Have you noticed the word hurt and injured more than shot or wounded lately or is it just me?
Now it's we don't know if the victim was a man or a boy. Give me a break.
I thought dick durbins flash msgs were irrelevant. Until I started getting FOPs
I heard a copper in uniform going to 022 to work the parade got written a mover by a traffic mush.
(OT) According to media,due to 2 bald eagles,no gun range will be built,in that former sludge pond on the east side! Again "fuck da polices" typical liberal bullshit! Boys and girls last 1 here please turn the lights out!
Sure looks like they may make a straight night team or two now out of the six(6) tact teams they have.
Like "girls gone wild" the X-Y_Z generation is getting theirs! Officers let them fight,watch,get popcorn and a cold 1,when it is over do the paper over coffee,call the "sick truck" take the losers to st roger there all done!
curious to know.....the offenders?
Hey mccarthy If you're reading this blog do what's right and put the police resources in the tax paying areas.
Or is it that you lack common sense?
You must be hanging at the station waiting to swipe,,,
SCC...? Anybody home? Hope all is well.
Read the comments on this story. Hilarious!
Where there is smoke there is fire. Seems like there is about to be a huge blaze set in the Chicago City Council when Racoon Eyes introduces legislation to fuck us all with his corrupt money grabbing speed cameras. It almost sounds like some of our Aldercreatures are coming out of hibernation to take a better look at this fraud. Even when our "leaders" even begin to look like they are about to do the job they are over paid for you know something is cooking. Seems that the Racoon's pal and top campaign aide Greg Goldner is going to reap millions from this deal with Redflex Corp. Goldner says he hardly knows the Racoon but he worked on his US Congeress and Mayoral campaigns. Again both of these fucking self serving thieves deny any collusion with each other or Redflex. The Racoon made Chicago the only jurisdiction to have the cameras but you know these bastards plan to extend this shit all over the state. Even some of our suburban political thieves already have their greasy beaks in the barrel. Citizens are pissed about this shit being tossed on them by our always corrupt inept politicians. Time to grow some balls Aldercreatures and send this program to the trash can. Enough of this picking our pockets. And one question...WHERE THE FUCK IS THE US ATTORNEY ON THIS BULLSHIT? Who the fuck got money from Redflex to fuck us with this scam?
Where's Tuesday's posts and Monday comments, SCC? A rare occurrence. Hope it's just a blogger glitch and that you're ok! Worried!
Nothing new here, move on. This has been going on for years!!!!
I wonder if it will get out of control. I mean truly out of control to the point where people are starting to notice. The media doesn't seem to really talk to the folks who live in the city and get their honest opinions.
I don't feel safe walking around the city anymore because of the citizens who dwell in the city and rob and pillage others seemingly at will. The police are underfunded, the police department is understaffed, the police leadership is either clueless or doesn't give a damn, and our mayor doesn't care about us. When enough citizens start discussing these problems we will see change.
Another issue I would like to address is that the state legislature has brought up concealed carry again. Please lend support to it so that IL can finally join the rest of the nation in having some sort of CCW for its citizens.
Wish I was in the casket business, three more Monday night. Ooooh Compstat ain't going to be good this week. "Elizabeth here I come (grabbing your chest).
Where are you SCC? Do we need to send out a posse? Are you ok?
One riot one ranger. It can still be done.
While you were out. 5 shot, 3 of them dead... and it's only monday.
That's right folks wait until this weekend ST. PATRICK's DAY and all of the weekends and warm weather that follows. YOU NEED ADEQUATE MANPOWER!!!!!! And you can't have too many people at a scene like this. Don't say I didn't tell you in advance,
Did SCC quit?
WTF is going on? Are you ok SCC?
From what I heard, the "riot" was not as bad as freshman dismissal at Tilden High School.
Toughen up kiddies---more to come.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! how does the new 019 like it? thanks you mush rahm and gmac
OMG--SCC, they found you and killed you!
SCC, hope whatever virus that has afflicted you [or your computer] is resolved soon. You are missed!!
Scc... where you?
Let me guess. The savages again. Can't they ever act like human beings.
hey SCC what did McCarthy take you into custody?? where is the new posts????
SCC is gone, now what do we do wih our lives? Gasp
maybe they took the name ''sluggers''too seriously.
Dude, I need my crack, C'mon!
Racoon Eyes snaps his greasy little fingers and Presto! $290 Million for new parks! Wow! This little conniving fuck can't find a dollar to help shore up our pensions but he can find money to put his name on things he does for us. Rather what he does for himself. Imagine the Racoon looking in the Yellow Pages for bond companies and contractors to build the new parks for our kids. Fact is they already have connected contractors and lawyers lined up for the work. If da Mayor doesn't keep handing out contracts to these weasels political donations will dry up. If our spineless corrupt Alderfools don't vote for this bullshit they won't get any "donations" either.If you liked the Daley Crime Family then you are just going to love the Racoon Eyes Crime Family. What happend to the open transparent Racoon administration we were promised? Oh well.
No comments after 24 Hrs.? No Tuesday post? Is it a technical difficukty or something else!
RHAMBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
CLOSED THE 19th DIST and moved to 23Rd Dist Lakeview cisitzens unsafe
FAILED LEADERSHIP
What's up with the Security Department at the U of I? I hear the place is in chaos. Something over people being fired.
Get rid of two of the 6 tact teams and make them permanent night foot teams on Clark! Take back the hood! Even if you don't want to do anything, presence alone will deter most of them. It sucks on the weekend when its cold but it works.
They call me mcC and I for a fact that this didn't happen, not in my city not On my watch. No sir. Now let's get back to this great saving grace we all cum stain, I cOmstat

Off Topic:Just want to give a warning to everyone who is trying to make a notification to Central Area Detectives: THERE IS NO ONE ANSWERING THE PHONES. Across every district are stories of attempts to call in investigative alerts, or get names for simple notifications. IT MAY TAKE HOURS. Why? Because the sergeants have gone on strike and are refusing to make detectives answer phones. Angry at all the changes, the sergeants have decided to take it out on all the working coppers out there by making their jobs more difficult. Thanks for getting us involved in your petty sergeant-management-spot bullshit asshats!!!!

You are full of fucking shit. I just got transferred there, and although I'm not happy, the phones are answered. ASSHAT.

who cares? I don't blame them. collect the o.t.
Area 1 has truly gone from first to worst. I bet the 5th District at least answers their phones (right Pat Walsh?). Expecting more out of the uniformed coppers and then treating them like shit is no way to run an area. What do you expect from a crew of all-merit supervisors though?
I'm a suburban cop who was out with my wife last Friday night in the 2200 block of Lincoln. I was waiting to get my car as the bars let out at 2am. I was amazed at the scene: hundreds of 20-something drunks, guys urinating in doorways, people puking, and dozens of utterly clueless drunk kids standing in the street blocking traffic while trying to hail cabs. No fights at least, and only a couple minor injuries from drunks tipping over off the curb. So you got that going for you.
OT
Can someone at fop tell us why contact negotiations have not yet started?
Mikey, is there something you want to tell us?

I bet Don O'neil knows the answer. This developing scandal will be bigger than the Bella lawsuit.
Area One stopped working when the detective got stripped for double dipping. They think making POs wait 3 hours for a detective to come process their juvy is fine. Whatever makes the Area grind to a halt.
"You are full of fucking shit. I just got transferred there, and although I'm not happy, the phones are answered. ASSHAT."
I don't think they were talking about the call from your boyfriend-they mean the department phones. Used to be easy to make a notification there-now you either get someone from the wrong place (SVU goes to HGS etc) and they hang up on you, or they promise to page someone and then you get ignored then hung up on. There is no accountability over there, but we still get told to bring in the numbers. ASSHAT CRUST.
what next, North side losers actually win a few baseball games? stay safe,.the world can use a lot more people like Chicago police officers pushing patrol cars.
not a cop

If they're not going to change the courts. I want Area 2 back because my experience with Area 1 has not been good.

Yeah, that shit is uncalled for. Just doing my job, I wish they would too.
The problems at old Area 1 are numerous, and they fall sqarely on the shoulders of the supervisors. Say what you want about Walsh, but the dics there were pro-working police when she was there. The commanders hate what the supe makes them do, the lts and sergeants hate what the commanders ask of them and the dics just all went into retirement mode. The people who pay are the beat coppers who are told to do more for their time due, early/late starts etc then shit upon by detectives. Once upon a time we were on the same team. Now the d-unit is all about the d-unit. It's not all roses in patrol either people, so do us a favor and earn some of your paycheck.

I don't know any details but I have noticed a lot of shitheads hanging out in wrigleyville lately. Its only a matter of time until all the shitheads figure it out. Take notice ladies and gentlemen the beast is out there and he s knocking on our door. Maybe all the 023rd district coppers should stop worry about looking cool in front of the bars and pay attention.

Why are you attacking the PO's of the new 019???
What we need is solidarity. What we DON'T need is jerks like you making stupid comments that have no merit and further drive a wedge between us.
I no longer have any personal interest in this. In the last year two people to be assigned to Area 1 after not working in the area for some years, both retired upon seeing the utter lack of concern, professionalism, leadership and morale. Many, many CPD learned how to be the police in A1, in the district or one of the many units that operated out of that building. That Area was jam packed with some of the best police officers that ever worked this department and if there was anything you wanted to learn someone there would teach you. I guess times change.
Can't wait to see what tonight has to offer.Between the nice weather and the drinking for 48 hours straight it's gonna be nuts.
