NATO Order (UPDATE!!!!!!!!)
Due to be released at the meeting at HQ around 1000 hours today.
We'll have the basics up as soon as we can. Operational mumbo-jumbo that could potentially compromise safety and security stuff will not be published. But everyone reading should know the hours of operation and stuff like that - we do have lives outside the Department and family issues ought to be easier to plan than a mere 6 days in advance, right?
UPDATE: Due to circumstances beyond our control, the release of the NATO order has been delayed for at least 24 hours.
Minimum.
We're pretty sure McPrepared had it delayed because we said we were going to post portions or details that actually affected officers' lives. We got letters from two separate bosses stating that the NATO meeting today at HQ was the biggest waste of time they had ever attended, and since they had been bosses for a few decades, that's saying something. No one has a clue and no one seems to give a shit about everyone else's life outside of this event.

No clue kirby great job NOT!
Yeah, how about it...not like we don't have to make arrangements for pickups/dropoffs of kids, dogs that need to be let out, etc...at roll call today, we heard 3 different start times. No one knows what's going on. Can you say "trainwreck"?
OPERATION SHOWCASE -- IT'S A GO!
I'm glad Lori Healey finally found a minute to sit down and bat out the particulars for us.
It'll be nice to have a copy of the Master Tactical Trendy Bistro List -- the exact hours of tasting for "artisan liqueurs," imported cheeses and so forth.

Everyone is really sticking it to us. My rear end hasn't been this sore since the last time I was at the Manhandler Saloon.
"we do have lives outside the Department and family issues ought to be easier to plan than a mere 6 days in advance, right?"
No. Under the new order we are no longer allowed to have lives outside of the department.
Nor after retiring. Not like we'll be able to do that anyway.
They pulled the same stuff for the millenium in 2000 which technically was not the millenium.
At least here you won't be reading the press released road closings. As if the USSS would post the secondary and tertiary street closures. As they might say on Mythbusters, "Secondary and tertiary....THERE'S your problem."
No days off cancelled for patrol is what I'm hearing.
What's NATO?
They are inviting WARSAW PACK who sill think the cold war isn't over to play paint ball?

Were you the stud in the black leather chaps? Very hot! Meet me at Roscoe/Halsted in Glory Hole #2.
No days off cancelled for patrol is what I'm hearing.
WHAT! No RDO's canceled??? I'm in 6/4 which is the 20th and 21st. Damn! I was so looking forward to the long hours of standing on my feet and blowing kisses to the protesters.
/sarcasm
What a joke and only if the News can sit in a roll call to hear how F*ed up the planning is behind this.
I just have a simple request. Let me know what the hell is going on so I can plan my personal life in advance and I mean more then a day or two. I have kids and a dog that will need some attention.
The city council is attempting to lower the speed limit on residential streets to 20MP», unreal! Desperate to steal the last penny from the working man.
Imagine how many of us will be paying unconditional speeding camera tickets!
This shit has to stop!
They are looking for ways to charge you for the air you breathe.
What's good for the goose is good for the gander. Freeze COLA for cops after you freeze COLA for social security
mccarthy and rahm care about your family, your better off with gacy babysitting ur kids...
Cooter said. If the city and nine fingers wants to take our pention away. Let the city burn
Why are they planning to protest Boeing?
Note to the bosses, you have to EARN respect to be SHOWN respect. "Shut Up and Do Your Job" or " If You Don't Like It Quit" isn't leadership. You simply don't treat people with contempt and expect results. Next week might be really interesting.
Are you shiting me about your dog and kids. If you can't make those adjusments how well are you on the streets? It is one weekend!
Wednesday's Lombardian newspaper reports the Lombard PD is trained and ready to help you if needed. I know they have a newer command RV and probably better gear than you have.

They're taking it in all wide-eyed.
No days off cancled just switched to anoter day of the week also teams cut early after protestors go home so many will NOT be working 12 Hr afternoons. Beside the protestors parents won't let them out after 1am.
Don't forget to ask for a lunch and when you are denied, put in a slip to be compensated for it.
Same with change of start time by more than two hours.
You would think the fop would come out with their own orders but they are tied down patting themselves on the back.

WBBM radio reporting that Skyway rock-throwers are in custody. I believe they said one 13-year-old and one 15-year-old.
So much for Occupy's Tremendous Plot, "probing of defenses," etc. Imaginary Dungeons and Dragons. Hell, Occupy can't even figure out where it's going to sleep.
Good work, CPD. Watch yourselves, idiots. That woman who threw the dog off her balcony couldn't believe she was getting arrested either.
(A Rachel Something from Occupy was shrilling again that "Occupy does not plan to obtain or obey any permits. We will be in the streets."
Heads-up -- among the "First Amendment" activities she mentioned was "shutting down Boeing.")

The speculators at JP Morgan Chase just lost TWO BILLION DOLLARS trading in something called "derivatives."

Right, Mr. Mayor?
lets get this show on the road!!! yes!!!!
The last I heard from someone IN THE KNOW, was that days off are cancelled on SUNDAY, but not saturday. Of course that could have changed. I have a feeling things will change right up until zero hour.
Hey SCC, you should start a thread on the whole gorilla glue/helmet fiasco. Mine broke already lol. This is such a fuckin joke

Hey, hey, look over here. Forget all about the pension mess. Just make sure you keep giving to the Chicago Police Memorial Fund (CPMF). I need your money.
Insincerely,
Phil Cline
PS. I get 150K CPD Pension + 150K + A Car + Healthcare Paid By The CPMF which = 320K A Year. I have nothing to worry about. Just keep pouring the cash into the CPMF. Don't worry about me. I will be just fine.
**********************************************************************
To whomever posted this on an earlier thread,
Instead of acting like a whiny little jealous bitch start an organization of your own. Start an organization for fallen police officers. Collect donations, run events, and do a better job than the CPMF. When you have achieved that goal people who contribute to CPMF will instead choose to support your group. Will you ever start an organization like that....no. Just like people that whine and bitch about politicians that don't vote or better yet, are not even registered to vote.
The CPMF has helped more police families than you ever will. Just let me know when your organization is up and running....do it here....anonymously on the blog. I'm not on the CPMF but I appreciate what they do. I donate for the Run to Remember and I go to the Texas Hold 'Em tournament, and I do the automatic payroll deduction. When you start your organization for fallen officers families I will stop my $5 per check automatic deduction and switch it over to yours.
Sincerely,
An officer who prays for the Gold Star Families

It's over.
CEO of JP Morgan Chase, some "Diamond," droned in a flat, annoyed voice "We'll learn from it, we'll be a better company, we'll move on."
$2 billion lost, maybe running into $3 billion or more, and that's that. "we won't dwell on it," as they say about everything horrible today.
The Dow actually went UP.
"Not sustainable."
OT. Was doing some research at natoprotest.org and was looking into who their sponsors are. Surprise surprise. There's the Chicago teachers union supporting these asshats. How many of us coppers are married to CPS teachers and how many knew what their union is supporting. No more free pass for teachers. Sorry.
Just left headquarters. Mayor wants all p..os to take time instead of money for nato

--5/11/2012 01:05:00 AM
Rib joints, motels were changing their names, everything.
Today the only thing left that's named "Millennium" is Vanecko Park down there, laboratory of spectacular cost overruns.
What can you say about a city that puts up a giant cube that spits on you?
Let's suppose, proverbially, there's a very large fan and an extremely large pile of poop on the corner of Michigan and Roosevelt. A long extension cord connected to a lamppost nearby.
When the order is given, unknown person(s) will flip the switch on the fan as another unk person(s) will feverishly shovel the excrement into the the powerful fan, disbursing huge amounts of fecal matter amongst the populous.
I AX You, when this occurs, will WE be prepared ?
The Order, I expect, will address the concern of how to prohibit or limit the use of extension cords in Grant Park.
It's hard to stay professional when you about to be made the object of a "lose-lose" situation.
Are police really ticketing idiots who text while walking? Is this really how we want to use our scarce resources?
I predict this NATO thing will be a big fizzle like all the hype leading to y2k
Before this NATO shit hits the fan Remember what you felt like on your first day in the academy and then the first day on the street. When you realized you have no life outside of this Department. Forget the wife/husband or the rugrats!
And if your family members ask why you do this job just say you are working toward a real crappy pension and a coffe cup. (NO CHEESY WRIST WATCH ANYMORE)
Then go out there and stand tall,
You are a Chicago Police Officer.
And you took the job and the blame that is headed toward you.
Word is that all words are rumors unless the rumor is true in which case they still might change the order unless changing of the order is a rumor then all of the above is bullshit unless it's true.....maybe.
Still waiting to be trained and a face shield. Pass me some Gorilla Glue. And give me an event number.
Either way...LET IT BURN. Let RAHM see what hatred he's created...and let the liberals reap what the sow.
Life outside the department; yeah right. They could care less. nothing like waiting til one week before d-day to hint at what our hours, locations, needs, transportation, etc is going to be. what a joke.
what about the promotional list? are they out? keep us posted on furlough.
OT
Is the state broke??? I have been waiting 2 months for my IL tax refund. Anyone else having problems?
Won't be out until tomorrow...federal authorities still have to ok the order....Too funny!
Move along. Move along. Nothing to see here. My old partner just got his new filter for his gas mask. He is trying to attach it to his CPD issued goggles since he isn't allowed to wear his gas mask. Only in Chicago where having a job makes you a second class citizen. Just another money source for the welfare voters.
PENSIONS? PENSIONS? THEY DON'T NEED NO STINKING PENSIONS!
Access the order is out lets go with the updates
BAM!!
Just in time for NATO.
Jobless Americans to lose unemployment benefits
More than 200,000 long-term jobless Americans will lose their unemployment checks this week, when eight states roll off the federal extended benefits program.
Nearly half of them live in California, and the rest reside in Florida, Illinois, North Carolina, Colorado, Connecticut, Pennsylvania and Texas.
...
The issue of supporting the long-term unemployed, who number 5.1 million or 41% of the jobless, has split policy makers and economists. Some argue that these costly benefits need to end to spur people to find work. But others say the economy is still too weak to roll up the safety
http://finance.yahoo.com/news/jobless-americans-lose-unemployment-benefits-094500875.html
Well that should help the Occupiers enrollment don't you think? There's nothing else to do, might just as well march in the streets.
Oh yeah.
Off the unemployment count and onto the disability count. See that, unemployment is falling the economy is improving. ha.
Worthless meeting. No real details given. Most of the support personnel are still at a loss as far as what they are doing. Just a lot of self-high-fives & pats-on-the-back by the exempt staff........
COME ON SCC!
It's almost two-thirty!
No updates???
ok 1300 no order out fuck it its been cancelled back to our reg programing..LIFM
lift residency if pensions change,forget this shitty!
They can at least tell us what the time we are working and what rdo days will be cancelled. I'm sure that is not anything that will put officers lives in danger. If anything it will help us out so we can get our home life in order
"I have kids and a dog that will need some attention."
well, my kids are all grown up now, but my dog asks.....what's up with NATO?...woof......will anyone be here to let me out?.....woof....
The latest rumor is that all rumors will be canceled in which if it is the truth then please disregard the above mentioned. However, the truth will be postponed until 1700 hrs or 1900 hrs which ever happens first- rumor is 1800 is the actual time we will find out the truth, maybe.
Why are they planning to protest Boeing?

Go to Google / News and look it up.
No wonder you will never make detective.
We were all told to plan on having out days off canseled so we altered our lives for that to happen. Where is the FOP we all should get paid for those days.
We're on a need to know basis and McNutty and Lori Healey and Rahm have decided that we don't need to know this stuff.
Typical arrogant asshole moves.
Sat sun mon days off cancelled. Uniform 80/20's crown hat. Thanx bosses
And people wonder why so many have soooooo much hatered and animosity toward the leaders of this department. They lie and tell oh how much they care about us and our familes, but time and time again the show us they don't. How hard is it to simply tell us what our start time is so we can plan care for our familes? I don't think that's asking too much. My entire family is on hold waiting for this simple information. My wife can't plan her work schedule until then, my babysitter can't plan anything, who's going to take our kids to school? etc. etc.
No days cancelled for district watches P/Os assigned to the bash will have days off cancelled 20 & 21 may. 12hrs starts 19 may.

Oh this can't be good for Rahm can it?
City road plan could limit speeds to 20 mph
The city has rolled out a 2-year plan for improving streets that includes a mandate to fill every pothole, and to explore reducing the speed limit in all residential neighborhoods to 20 mph.
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/breaking/chi-city-road-plan-could-limit-speeds-to-20-mph-20120511,0,5358283.story
Now how in the heck are we going to rake in millions of dollars with speed trap cameras if the entire residential area of the city has a 20 mph speed limit? ..lol
Come-on now guys.
Citywide 20 mph it's for the children. If it saves just one child's life than isn't it worth it even if it take a few more minutes to get somewherez? Hahahah..
The speed trap cams will be worthless. The only people making out on the deal as usual are the friends of the politicians with the no-bid contracts.
The Balfour jury told the judge on Friday-11 May 2012 at 1430 hours that they were split, but returned to deliberations and came to a verdict by 1530 hours. The verdict is suppose to be announced after 1630 hours.
Cook County is so contrary to the rest of the country, this jury might have cut him loose. If so, we will be the object of ridicule from across the country, AGAIN!
The highways are jammed already.

COLA is tastier then Root beer.....Fuck them....
It's not like this NATO crap is next week or anything.
Because that moranic ex commander David Sobczyk works there.
Hey SCC,
Deputy Velez spoke at our 2nd watch roll call a few days back... He confirmed rumors that our helmets, (You know the ones they have spent the last few days retro fitting with the new face shields) will be left on a bus that is supposed to be some where in the general vicinity.
I asked him about officers such as myself who were not approved to be issued a gas mask due to a medical condition, where we will be? He said "you will be down there" He said that he asked that question and that is the answer he was given by someone obviously above him...
So what happens when I get off the bus and attempt to take my helmet with me? Is a supervisor going to order me to leave it behind? Does it not say in the general orders that we will not comply with an order that may place ourselves in danger? I know that is at the bottom of the order that refers to "not shooting at a moving veh, to get out of the way"
"We All Need to Stick Together" on this issue of Not leaving our helmets on the bus! I would be glad to Take a SPAR for not obeying a Direct Order for something as Stupid as this! And before I forget... Do I still have to "Take a Day" when some Asshole runs up and grabs my crown cap? Cause You know that's going to happen!! It will be their Trophy!
Update: The W/C now Station Supervisor said that McStupid stated that for this time, and this time only that if someone runs off with our crown hat we won't have to Take a Day... Although he did not address whether we would have to get a new Star Number or not. One suggestion the Lt. made was to loosen the screws on the back of the hat shield and if the shit hit the fan you could take your hat off and quickly finish unscrewing it and place it in our pocket for safe keeping.
What I learned after 35 years is "same circus different clowns"
I predict a major uptick in medical roll and IOD use.... the likes of which the department has never seen before.
When u tell the department's most senior officers(2nd watch) that you're going to use and abuse them (NATO) you're basically telling them Fuck You.. when you tell a bunch of grizzled veterans Fuck You you tend to be met with strong resistance. Let Rahm's city burn!
WE should be protesting Boeing! The Shity gave them MILLIONS and we get shit on, literally.
I guess I'll just have to wait for Andy Thayer to release the info!
,,,,"General Custer,sir?"
(sounds of crickets chirping)
...."What are your orders sir?"
(silence)
...."Sir!, can you see what is surrounding us?"
(continued silence)
...."ARE YOU GOING TO DO ANYTHING, SIR?"
(sounds of crickets chirping)
one week away... and we know next to nothing...the pday denials/approvals for next weekend came thru (no apparent rhyhme or reason as to granting)...still a few day guys waiting on replacement helmets...all the watch guys still looking for the promised protective eyegear...uniform/duty hours and assignments still secret secret secret...

My big question is what has the Department been doing since 9/11? Didn't they prepare any type of plans for emergencies? You know master plans that should only need minor adjustments for different types of emergencies? If not what did they do with all that money?
6 days in advance??? I know some that got details for Mon 14 May!!!! Nothing like getting a call at home!!

5/11/2012 10:38:00 AM
------------------------------------
JP Morgan lost $2~3 Billion in six weeks. The USPS lost $3.2 Billion in the entire first quarter. Both losers.
The best and brightest are burning thru cash like there's no tomorrow.
How much is one billion?
Put one thousand millionaires together and that's one billion dollars.
One billion is a $100,000 dollar paycheck for 10,000 people. Now do the math as we prepare another taxpayer bailout.
Oh and the USPS. how do they respond to their billion dollar losses?
As of May 15 the USPS will no longer ship anything with a lithium battery overseas. No Iphones, IPads, laptops, cameras, game consoles, cell phones, etc. That's gonna help bring revenues in eh? It's mainly gonna effect US troops stationed overseas.
How long before the media gives us the USPS is going bust must sooner than expected story? As it stands now they claim by Oct USPS will be out of cash. Seriously, right before Nov elections? Well congress will just have to bail out the obsolete buggy whip operation with more loans and taxpayers dollars then won't they?
Meanwhile instead of USPS laying off people which would show up in the unemployment stats, something taboo in an election year, they will cut hours to just four hours a day at many offices.
So the effect on the economy is pretty much the same. Thousands of people working less hours, going on food stamps and spending less, lower tax revenues. Watch it trickle down.
My wife and I are both the police and have 3 kids. We work different shifts, but don't worry about us needing to know our fucking start times so I can arrange a babysitter you FUCKING ARROGANT CLUELESS DICKHEADS
Be sure that any changes passed in Springfield concerning our pensions will be taken right to court. There will be a stay until this matter is resolved. The State of Illinois Constitution guarntees our rights and benefits. Is the Racoon above the courts? We will see.
Why worry about any of this stuff, NATO, evonomy, pensions, unemployment when the most important thing is.......our president and vp believe in gay marriage. Now I feel better.

Yes Sgt BS does yell, a lot of it has to with the fact guys or girls like yourself stand there at major incidents and do NOTHING! You don't protect the crime scene, you dont search for evidence, you stand there with your hands in your vest trying to look tough.
Sgt BS is truly passionate about being the police and cares deeply about getting all his officers home safe. If you have a problem with him, talk to him about it instead of being a spineless bitch on this blog.
If your ever involved in shit, I guarantee you want him on your side, I hope you never need him, because that means you made it home to your family safe.
Any more questions? Come see me, ask for 2260. We can talk about your ideas on how to manage people, I am always looking for better ways and would be happy to get good advice from anyone.

I was at the meeting. They said the order will be out Monday IF McGruff signs it over the weekend. That's what they're waiting for. They did say that days off for the entire dept will be canceled for Sat & Sun and maybe more days than that. They may cancel Fri and Mon depending on what transpires. The meeting was for McGruff to flex his "muscles." He was the most self-serving telling eveeryone he will be on the front line and we will probable have to hold him back when things go bad.
I was at the meeting. Days off will be canceled for everyone Sat and Sun. Based on manpower needs they may also cancel Fri and Mon. The meeting was basically McGruff's "rah-rah" speech to the troops. Needless to say, he didn't impress me. The best was Wysinger's speech. He, in essance, just repeated everything McGruff said.

Answer those questions and you will know the folly in trusting Illinois courts, Illinois politicians, in fact, anything in Illinois.

For those of us who have a real, live, breathing woman that works opposite hours...yeah, who is dropping off my kids? I'd like to know. And my dog can't go 10 hrs without having to be let out. Hence, I would like to know my hours so I can make arrangements. Stupid fuck .

People without families have no clue whatsoever. There's no use in trying to educate some clueless moron about children, wives, and pets when his only concern is how many hours he's going to sleep in his parent's basement tomorrow before going to "work" to play cowboys and Indians with the scumbags. He wouldn't care if McStupid and Rahm told him to work 48 hours straight because when he's not eating, breathing, and shitting the CPD he has absolutely no responsibilities whatsoever and nobody to take care of or worry about but himself.
New order also says we all gotta eat at Chipolte, then take a shit in a bag so we have something to throw back. Remember the Alamo Muthafuckas!

Drop your kids off at 4228 N Hermitage. The woman of the house won't be busy that weekend and would love to look after your kids. There will be plenty of police around so the kids will be safe. There will be bosses and heavy weapons nearby also, safest house in the City. Also a nice playground is a few doors north. The kids can call 911 if they want to be entertained and have some cops come over to read to the kids. Pick the kids up afterwards. Your mayor wants to help any way he can. There are so many 019 sergeants that some can run the pizza shuffle for the kiddies, bringing pizza and ice cream.
What's not to like?
Or, just leave them on the ramp of the nearest firehouse.

Yes Sgt BS does yell, a lot of it has to with the fact guys or girls like yourself stand there at major incidents and do NOTHING! You don't protect the crime scene, you dont search for evidence, you stand there with your hands in your vest trying to look tough.
Sgt BS is truly passionate about being the police and cares deeply about getting all his officers home safe. If you have a problem with him, talk to him about it instead of being a spineless bitch on this blog.
If your ever involved in shit, I guarantee you want him on your side, I hope you never need him, because that means you made it home to your family safe.
Any more questions? Come see me, ask for 2260. We can talk about your ideas on how to manage people, I am always looking for better ways and would be happy to get good advice from anyone.

Fantastic. Bring him to 022, please. So I don't have to listen to him anymore. You two can continue the love fest over there. And as far as passionate about being the police? I'll give you that. But he isn't a Messiah, lieutenant, though he certainly acts like it. There are right ways and wrong ways to assist district personnel. Barking on the radio every two minutes to people who have been to the rodeo more than a few times and seemingly attempting to take over scenes hoping that some gold star may be monitoring is the wrong way, plain and simple. He's a showboat and his antics are not appreciated.

In reponse to the officer asking what we have been doing since 9-11.
Well, very little. Most of the brass cannot even attend a security briefing due to their connections with the bad guys. Knowledgable patrolmen were dumped out of positions where they might help, and of course, we promoted more idiots, and then to top it off, hired two of the most unqualified people to command this department.
On the bright side, we are the only major department were two of its highest ranking members made it into a playboy article.

You are correct.
The statement is accurately quoted -- I ran to jot it down.
I or the TV station the clip appeared on a couple of months ago may have gotten the name wrong. I'm digging back as time permits.
The man who said this was shown in a Malnati's restaurant, and he had what appeared to be a surgical scar on his upper lip. Possibly one of Lou's sons?

As of May 15 the USPS will no longer ship anything with a lithium battery overseas. No Iphones, IPads, laptops, cameras, game consoles, cell phones, etc. That's gonna help bring revenues in eh? It's mainly gonna effect US troops stationed overseas.
============
You may not be aware of it, but lithium batteries have a very unpleasant tendency to spontaneously catch on fire when damaged. They can also be quite dangerous when exposed to water. Li is a highly reactive metal. The chemicals used in the battery are nasty as well and if the case splits open such as might happen in a crash, all kinds of bad things are possible.
I can remember back more than 25 years ago when the first batteries with Li in them came out. There were all kinds of restrictions on how they were supposed to be transported, including a complete ban on transporting them by air. Not that anyone ever really cared about that rule. It may well still be in effect.
I was in a battery factory not long after they had a spontaneous Li battery fire in a truck parked in the parking lot. It was just sitting there.
I for one am not at all surprised at this turn of events by the USPS.

The power structure in this country, state and city doesn't really like people who are married and maintain a proper home for their own kids and work to earn money to support them. It means you have attempted to create a zone where you, not the government, can run your lives as you see fit, and that is a threat to them. I hope everyone sees this by now and votes accordingly.

As previous posters have mentioned, we have been warned of the NATO meeting almost a year ago, you should have made plans weeks or months ago to;
1. send your kids away to a relative, firehouse, Rahm's house, chuck-e-cheeses, etc.
2. tell the dog to find a spot outside, firehouse, board him, animal care, neighbor, etc.
3. tell the wife (other human) that you may not be back for a few days and leave them a few bucks for pizza.
4. tell youe c.o. that you will be out of town for a funeral, disease treatment, hospital stay, etc.
5. just leave town and tell no-one anything about your absence, the dicks will trace you in a few weeks to that spot in the Dells with your babe or dude.
6. just don't go! pretend you forgot about it, rahm will.
I'm just curious.....I went to the one day NATO training in February at the academy and we were informed by the instructors, no, GUARANTEED by the instructors that the city ordered enough replacement face shields for EVERY officer's helmet. When do we pick the new shields up?
Not to be a complainer but the city better hurry up because the NATO summit is less than a week away. HA HA, ok, I know that was a lie, we aren't getting new shields, but where is the money that was supposedly being spent on to get these replacement shields??
I was shopping a few days ago and a picture on the cover of a magazine caught my attention. It is a picture of a police officer in a supposed CPD uniform with a baton. Upon further investigation, the article gives information and tips to the protestors and also a map of what events are being planned and organized. My first thought was...how come the magazine knows the routes and locations of the NATO events and us regular Cops have no idea what is going on. Also, this magazine tells the protestors what to do in the event they are sprayed with pepper spray by the police and what questions that they MUST answer by the police...kind of a piece of junk looking magazine called Time Out Chicago. Some liberal lawyers gave advise for the protestors. I wouldn't buy the magazine cause it looks like it might be a garbage rag but I did glance through it. Did anyone else see this article?

Hey blowhard. Your smokescreen will not work. You offer nothing, but insults and a ridiculous challenge. Why not try refuting the allegations? Why not? Because you cannot refute the truth.
I pray for you to locate a brain and then realize that Cline is out for Cline and Cline alone. Cline is a flim-flam man, but do not feel bad because he fooled you. He's fooled a lot of people. He's good at it.
Hey 2260, you are a fucking tool, you surely could not work in the private sector with all your supervisory "training" that you received from this department. Sad to say, many of your comrades carry the same qualities. It shows, people listen to you only because of the chevrons and not because of the person.
You people supporting Cline and company are making certain people wealthy on the backs of fallen Police Officers. Isnt it enough to at least look into how much these people are paid? C'mon, would it matter to you if Cline was making a million before you open your eyes?

Cline paying himself 150,000/year from a fund that solicits our donations for the purpose of helping the the families of the fallen is wrong. No, not just wrong, but morally vile. It is a good cause whose purpose is being subverted by a greedy piece of shit, who is more concerned about receiving a fat paycheck than helping the families of the fallen. Fuck him, I hope he rots in hell with Daley for his legal theft.

Look. All investment is taking a chance. Sometimes a big one, sometimes a small one. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. You don't make money for yourself or your investors without taking a chance.
The question to ask is, are you (an individual or a company) doing it with your own money? The bank's stockholders are the ones who stood to gain (as they have gained with other investments) and will absorb this loss. Heads will probably roll at this company, if the loss is too big. If your 401k or pension fund had a stake in it, maybe you will sell and be leery of buying bank stock again. Or maybe you'll buy more stock while the price is low, figuring "lesson learned." And if you are a customer and think you're somehow getting stuck with the results, then you can take your business to some other bank.
Who else do you expect will pay? Who else do you think should? If the idea that taxpayers will bail them out has led banks to make bad decisions, then isn't it high time to ask your representatives to decide that there will be no such thing as "too big to fail" from now on?
--Law Abiding Citizen
For someone retired on a huge pension well into 6 figures, a stipend of no more than $1,000 a month is sufficient for overseeing a charitable organization whose purpose is to provide help to those comrades and families that really need it.
Look at it this way, how many individuals or police families could be helped with the $150,000 that Phil Cline is paid? Lot's of tuition payments in there.
I would think that Cline would better donate his time to helping those he is in a position to help. Instead, Phil Cline is helping himself to more swilling at the trough. I guess someone has to pay for those gigantic steak dinners Phil loves.
Only in Chicago can someone convince himself that fronting for a police charity, by the former top cop, is worthy of another fat paycheck.
I think it is disgusting and I stopped giving to that fund the day I heard of Phil Cline's enormous salary, courtesy of a police charity.
When Phil suffers the inevitable results of gorging on well marbled beef, I might consider giving again, but only if the next head of that fund refuses a huge salary, stipend only.
