This is a General Order? (UPDATE)
A few weeks, maybe a month or two back, we wrote about this "Legitimacy" training the Department is making everyone go to. We haven't heard much noise about it lately - maybe they ran out of money? But we figured it was some "reverend feel-good" bullshit. Looks like we weren't too far off of the mark.
The Department (aka McCompStat) just rolled out the newest strategy, the "Gang Violence Reduction Strategy." We commented that it looked like a series of screens in the C.L.E.A.R. system that promote data collection about all sorts of affiliations, past events, etc. We didn't realize there was an entire General Order on the whole thing - General Order 10-01. Get a load of this:

Get a load of this:
- The Department's commitment to professionalism, obligation, leadership, integrity, courage and excellence has driven many meaningful public safety achievements. The Chicago Police Department conducts training and establishes procedures consistent with the concept of Legitimacy and Procedural Justice, with the goal of strengthening our relationship with the community and ultimately improving officer safety and efficiency. The concept of Legitimacy and Procedural Justice consists of the following four principles:
- Giving others a voice (listening);
- Neutrality in decision making;
- Respectful treatment; and
- Trustworthiness.
Wow. Really? This is a guideline for Department operations? Who writes this shit? It's like C.A.P.S. on major league meth. And it goes on for 10 or 12 more pages. Legitimacy gone wild!
Two things for certain:
- Someone is going to get a gold star for writing this crap.
- If you ever expect to get promoted, you better learn this order backward, forward, inside and out.
UPDATE: A commentator points out that the shooting order reads:
- that first responders to a shooting scene should
- Verify someone is shot
- Send a flash message.
- Notify CPIC. No mention of rendering aid...the law staff is gonna love this...
Nice catch. Not a word about aid. So if they bleed out, you're covered.
UPDATE II: Section VI-A-1-a:
- The general message conveyed is "We will help you if you will let us, but we will stop you if you make us."
This job and this city are so doomed.

I wish SCC, you guys kept going on quoting this garbage. next paragraph is about how items 1 through 4 will help us build better relationship with the tribe of local pilgrims. This is borderline communism party propaganda pamphlets fillers
Well, whoever is writing this glorious bullshit has their "principals" confused with "principles", I think.
I'm glad I'm not a cop, so I don't have to read the whole damn thing.
Oh wtf ???
There is absolutely nothing legitimate about the CPD.
I can't wait to go to this "training".
We are a zombie department and the bad guys know it.
This sound like someone is trying to earn a degree or writing a thesis. Just words and more bullshit from a merit hack.
Is the tint dancer and the n.y. Hustler planning to give the gang bangers radios and computers so thet can keep track of "criminal activity". These gang banging ceasefire bullshit jobs will turn into actual paying jobs with these two assholes running the city, or should I say ruining the city.
It's PURE horse shit. It is so obviously a communist inspired piece of work (comes from Yale, so go figure) that you should go into it understanding that you are sitting through an attempted communist brainwashing session.
I don't have the words to describe how much I hate the drivel they put forth here, because I'm drinking, but I truly feel sorry for some of the instructors, because some of them are decent people and have to spew this shit on fellow cops when THEY know it's bullshit.

It'll be a cold day in Hell before I 'legitimize' 99.9% of the motherfuckers I police daily; subhuman savages will NEVER command my respect and will be treated as enemy combatants until I deem them not a threat to mine and fellow officers' safety. Bow down and show weakness to your adversary? Uh-uh, ain't happening. Sorry, McIFoundThatGunInTheLiquorStoreAfterICutThePossiblePerp.
And while we're on the topic, same goes for the majority of Gold Star CPD Bossholes. No respect will be shown to pathetic, sell-out, never-been-the-police motherfuckers who think the lowly members of patrol aren't smart enough to see the correlation between clout and nepotism and the meteoric ascension of the chosen few. Used to be that one had to respect the rank. Fuck that noise. Not any more. When (if) this department ever gets back to having THE POLICE at the helm is when I'll change my tune.
"Neutrality in decision making"????
That's just a way to sugarcoat "indecisiveness". As in "I can't make a decision" or flip-flopping once a decision is made. And not being able to make a decision or flip-flopping once a decision is made is what gets coppers in jams...or worse.
And for those of you who may have been in a coma forever, the entire upper-echelon of present-day CPD is comprised of head-nodding Yes Men afraid to make decisions, never mind utter a word contrary to what they're told.
"Respectful treatment; and Trustworthiness"???? Ha!!! Don't make me laugh! Not in this department. Not then, not now, not never. Pandering to the CeaseFire cabal of felons is just the latest million reasons showcasing this disgusting phenomenon.
No kool-aid for me, thank you very little.
How about the part where it states, that first responders to a shooting scene should
1. Verify someone is shot
2. Send a flash message.
3. Notify CPIC.
No mention of rendering aid...the law staff is gonna love this...
SUNK...
"This Guns For Hire" by retired PO Terrence Howard....It's 122 pages of the TRUTH!!! Please recommend this book because he has told EXACTLY how a LOT of us feel about this job!!! Better yet, get an entire group of retired police together and they will give it to you straight, no chaser!!!! I can't WAIT!!! I have only a little bit to go and it's on!!!!
Who wrote it? Take a wild guess..The revs wrote it. Cant you tell by the wording?
OK Supt Mac....You want my Sgt to drop me off on a corner somewhere like I'm a HOOKER.....You then want me to work SOLO with a radio that does not work MOST of the time as well as have NO car with GPS??? Muah!!!! Coming from a female PO :-) I LOVE YOU!!!!
Love how it cites "shooting" as a charge along with those good old real charges of MAKBART
what school do these principals work at?
Ladies and gentlemen, witness the death of this once proud Department! Sad, isn't it? This is just another reiteration of the warm and fuzzy police strategy that got us into this situation in the first place. The command staff knows nothing about the reality of police work. Lack of manpower, a directionless society, the failure at every level of government to address the difficult problems we face and the equally difficult decisions it would take to turn things around, political correctness gone berserk and a myriad of other interrelated problems has us on the brink. And this general order is their answer?
There isn't a single gonad in the whole of the command staff. Soon, very soon, it is all going to come to a head and the ensuing horrorshow will consume almost everything. We have ignored history for too long and now we are going to pay a terrible price for our folly. And the saddest part of all? We (society) let it happen, even welcomed it.
Huh?
That's just a way to sugarcoat "indecisiveness". As in "I can't make a decision" or flip-flopping once a decision is made. And not being able to make a decision or flip-flopping once a decision is made is what gets coppers in jams...or worse.

AMEN!!! Very well said. This job and those who "run" it are effed beyond help. Not a leader amongst the clowns that sit at Compost mtgs.
God Bless all of the victims in Colorado, especially the children. WTF has gone wrong in America ?
We live in a world where most people can lok at things as black or white it is easy to do that. The world of the policmen however grows ever more gray. This is a perfect example of that.
No I-Bonds for verified gang members arrested for misdeameanor offenses, contradicts other orders on bonding.
ALL this shit obviously comes from and is approved by people who have NEVER been the police. Real policemen cant even stomach it anymore!
I read it and said the same thing to myself, "this is a general order?"
what.the.fuck
Hey SCCC, how sbout something on that poor sgt. convicted yesterday? Society is truly topsyturvy.
Anon said:
1 through 4 will help us build better relationship with the tribe.
Fuck items 1-4 and the whole general order! Who is making money off this shit? That is the real question. I too hate this bullshit as it makes me question what I chose as a profession.
If we can do this for the pilgrims at least we should allow the citizens to arm themselves.
WTF?
10-1 officer needs help. G.O.10-01 the higher command needs help.

If you are wondering if McOutofhisMind invented "legitamacy and procedural justice", he didn't. Here is a link to a study of legitamacy and procedural justice from 2003. It is co-written by a guy named Jason SUNSHINE! I kid you not!!!
If you read this, you will see that it is being transferred almost verbatim into the order!!
https://docs.google.com/viewer?a=v&q=cache:Icq00I5S9ksJ:www.uakron.edu/centers/conflict/docs/Sunshine.pdf+&hl=en&gl=us&pid=bl&srcid=ADGEESiWYE1muO4-HjKAVAWpUqJiuRtCFI9SPoH-YeyFtiTg0M41yb7U41wZXUcPrmfiiFwq1fxoQ9hEjQlWNrJBmPIEFfA8uwlcC39hUqpw6iMUMnXv5lw74lSZ5zctK4rQrKMe1wM8&sig=AHIEtbTM_-YKS-Ik6lBqWc0TH6rS3MPsDQ
No, I don't know why the link is so long. It is recommended that you do not drink coffee or other hot beverages as you read this because it will cause you to spit out whatever you are drinking!! What a load of BULLSHIT!!

Hey Garry, we can read too!!
They are going to "reason" with the street urchins? This is why the world is the way it is today. Nobody has the balls to lay down the law, draw a line in the sand and take action. What a joke.
Look at the point person on both trainings- never been the police, never will be.
*** Here is some more procedural justice nonsense, it should be noted that they call it procedural "fairness" now, "justice" sounded kind of mean...
http://www.proceduralfairness.org/Procedural-Fairness-Theory.aspx
It is quite obvious that McPlagiarizer either has been in direct contact with this guy, Tom Tyler, or is just ripping him off.
By the way, Tyler taught at NYU, I wonder if Garry was a student or has a connection? Hmmmmm? Media do I have to do all your work for you???
Do yourselves a favor and look up communist strategies and tactics. Look up brainwashing. Then look at what these so called progressives are trying to cram down your throats.
Remember that when you vote for that democratic machine of commies.
***Notify CPIC. No mention of rendering aid...the law staff is gonna love this...***
The law staff is aware of it and other issues such as denying I-bonds for known gang members. The staff informed McGoofy that it is all unconstitutional but he didn't care. He wanted the order out. I guess he figures that by the time the lawsuits hit, he will be gone.
***There isn't a single gonad in the whole of the command staff. Soon, very soon, it is all going to come to a head and the ensuing horrorshow will consume almost everything.***
Funny thing is that after Compstat and in the hallways of 35th, you can hear the gold stars laughing and poking fun of some of the ideas that McCompstat comes up with but not one will stand up to him at the meetings.
At the last comstat meeting, it was determined that in 005, when officers go in with arrests, crime goes up on the beats. Tracy comes up with a plan that they are looking at "marrying" different partners during an arrest. So if two cars come in with different arrests, only one P.O. from each car will stay as the arresting officers and the other 2 P.O.'s will be "married" and go out together back on patrol. WOW! What a brilliant idea! Instead of hiring more cops. Who comes up with this crap??? Oh I know, the inside mice that have never really worked a beat car or made any arrest where the goofball goes nuts or has a CR because of something his partner did. Someone, please make it stop!!!
it seems to be that they got rid of anyone in the command staff that would actually have alternate views or voice any concern regarding these new crazy ideas. So now it's just filled with "yes" men that won't stand up and say "this is fucking stupid."
Have you seen the drivel for combating burglaries? That's even worse...
You can't trust felons. You can't trust the family and friends of felons.
It's sorta why we can't associate with them.

I got a strategy. Why doesn't the 019 district unload about 100 police officers!
The district is slow and you have districts like 8, 15, 11, etc etc with less manpower!
7/19/2012 07:03:00 PM
While they're at it can we please get some of those bodies in 010 on 1st watch, we're being run rampant in this place. You would think the bosses downtown would realize that 10 beat cars and a wagon a night isn't gonna solve any crimes or ago. Batts, sorry "shootings". It's domestics stacked on top of battery in progress and gang disturbances all night long.
Much agreed! There is no need for 400 officers in 019 district. Please do something about that Sup. The rest of us are struggling while they have an abundance of officers. Just not logical. Or is it because the mayor lives in that district?

Those split-second decisions can carry lasting consequences [use of tasers], said Craig Futterman, a University of Chicago law professor who studies policing and believes Chicago police have used Tasers too readily.
In a city stricken by violence, police need cooperation, particularly in troubled neighborhoods, he said. Any unwarranted use of force works against that goal, Futterman said.

This is just another ambiguous, nonsense tool for merry-turdeous supervisors to use while trying to find creative ways do discipline and spar officers without shit on their noses. You know, just so they can raise the morale a little more, like they've been doing.
Offender: But office I didn't mean to kilt her! Ol girl was wearing a snake skin jump suit and I thought it was biggest mother fuckin boa I have ever seen. I sweet before god I thought it was a boa.
Officer: I believe you. This could happen to anyone. This is a case of mistaken justified shooting of a boa .
Offender: thank you office I now have faith in my poleese dept. is willing to work with us to understands the truths and not be biased.
Officer: no need to thank me , I'm only doing my job the way you want me to do it. Just one more question. Did you sleep with that 400 pound boa last night.
Offender: tore that shit up office!
Off the Subject: A judge convicts Sgt. Eddie Howard of two felony counts for slapping someone that was about to spit at him! This City is Doomed. The mutts shoot people, robb people, and other far more serious stuff and are walking right out of court so they can kill someone another day. when did you ever see a person convicted of a felony for slapping someone in Cook County? I am done, and this city is doomed. That judge just empowered every thug in the city.
Been reading this thing frontward and backward for 2 days now. And it's content is exactly how I feel. Push...pull...get out of the way. I am embarassed to be a Chicago cop right now. How about this for an order instead: If you're a gang banger and commit a crime we are coming for you. Wherever; whenever. My legitimacy will be the cuffs locking on your wrists.
Years from now the actions of our city government will be studied with the conclusion.... WHAT THE HELL WERE THOSE ASSHOLES SMOKING?
Comrades, this is Social Justice. It is part of what the Left has been using to corrupt this nation. This is now the policy, it seems, of the City of Chicagostan. Together we will goosestep with our comrade citizens. We are who we have been waiting for.
Read the part about how every car - beat, rapid, tact, gangs, etc - assigned to a shooting scene will leave an info report by the end of the tour of duty documenting what they did to prevent retaliation. Discovery motions will love this. We'll all be down writing reports. More paper more paper more paper. WTF!
When the department or any company for that matter, writes these types of guidelines they are covering their ass and making it easier to place blame when things go wrong. Example, the sergeant who was just convicted of a felony battery. The prosecutor quoted general orders in the cross examination .
By the way, when is the last time any cop rendered aid with a gunshot victim? I dont recall any. You are not trained for it and you dont want to get blood on you. You call for the ambulance and talk nicely to the victim in case someone is watching.
Hahahaha. Hey remeber give this guy a chance. Hes alright in my book. He stood out there all weekend with us he must be ok. To all you idiots that spouted that nonsense and defended this guy because he stood behind you at Nato heres more proof that this guys and idiot, and so are you for defending him.
Cshitcago Pussy Department....... How Fucking sad.

liberals thinks...everyone can be reasoned with and there are no monsters roaming the countryside. the weaker the police department the stronger the beast.maybe the beast needs to be trained..how about that for a start?

WASHINGTON -- Although Joseph McCarthy was one of the most demonized American politicians of the last century, new information -- including half-century-old FBI recordings of Soviet embassy conversations -- are showing that McCarthy was right in nearly all his accusations.
"With Joe McCarthy it was the losers who've written the history which condemns him," said Dan Flynn, director of <http://www.academia.org Accuracy in Academia's recent national conference on McCarthy, broadcast by C-SPAN.

Our way of life and society is under a full out assault. When those assigned to uphold the rule of law are declared the enemy and the irresponsible majority deemed the "norm" we are doomed. The drafters of this condescending, clueless and dangerous order will further fan the flames of an eventual racially motivated incident that costs life's. Do you think it's coincidental that Rahm pays off both Ceasefire and Farrakhan within days? I never in my worst nightmares would imagine our city would reward evil and crucify good.
as usual, administratively,
there is a lack of officer safety
noted for the first responder
ALWAYS
SECURE THE SCENE FIRST !!!!!
Check for possible suspects still posing a threat ! FIRST!
then call fire, make notifications,
etc.
protect yourself and other officers
this is your first and most important obligation no matter what
Why not go with trustworthy ,loyal,helpful,friendly,courteous,kind ,obedient,cheerful,thrifty,brave,clean,and reverent,it works for the boy scouts!Or maybe F.B.I.,fidelity,bravery,Integrity! Wait C.P.D.,cuddly,pussycats,doomed!
PRAVDA approves!
It would be nice if this Chicago Police related blog would at least comment on a good Sgt getting railroaded and convicted of three felonies for slapping an offender.
It's slightly more interesting and more important than a queen with a cellphone video, or a new general order, or a school strike, or the city's firearm ordinance.
the only good thing about this new gang shit is NO IBOND for any documented gang banger, who gets locked
I went to the legitimacy training last week. It's fancy words for acting professional. The basic thing I took away from the training is don't motherfuck people, or at least before you do, make sure it's the right people.
Garry should be made to work the street, 4 days of the week, on the 3rd and 1st watch. Since he was NEVER a Chicago patrolman, he doesnt understand the 45 year infestation and complicity of democratic machine chicago politicians, of the chicago street gang. From the ignoramaces, in the 40s run by daley in brideport, to the modern savages, given federal grant money by, republican nixon, in retaliation for daley's stealing the presidency from him, chicago has been a petri dish. The modern savage, brought up by cheetoes and purple juice, subsidized housing, that gets transfered to the moochers children when said child reaches the ripe old age of 18, social security payments, for having drug addict parents, asthma, back problems, etc., No access to jobs, all manufacturing in this city are all but gone or only hire illegals,so the dropping out of school at 16 with no education, the only job available is drug dealing, lord forbid they become good citizens and find more positive approaches to getting themselves for the down and out. 45 years of tax exempt " storefront churches" and on-line certificate reverends. Better drug money launderers, then carwashes and laundry mats. Stop the tax exemptions for All churches and this will eliminate alot of the problems "in the hood". Legitimate churches will survive, with the help of their parishners, the state can no longer afford reverse state/city tax payer aid. Pookie will then have to find other ways to fund these so called community activist/reverends, that have been detrimental to law enforcement and legitamate community service agency strategys. Rahm and Garry has to stop trying to tie law enforcements hand behind their backs. The modern savage has No Rules, No geneva convention doctrine, so to speak, to follow or adhere to. This culture of savages his been raised by the government with no questions asked or stipulations for how to behave to qualify for said aid. Funny, how most workers, tax payers have employment that has random drug testing and rules so one can get paid. This culture of savages has been touched with kid gloves, the powers that be fearing to be call racist, bigoted. All bullshit, now this culture of savages have accomplices, community members, that keep demonizing the good citizens in their own neighborhood and law enforcement assigned there, accomplices that allow children to be murdered, without saying a word. Its become a culture of silence to the thining of their herd, but lord forbid the police try to bring to justice pookie for having an illegal firearm on him or for law enforcement to try to help the good citizens trapped there. So, garry, put your law enforcement skills, where your mouth is, hell, make rahm your deputy droop along and go patrol, the streets you feel you know so much about. No theatrics, news cameras, frank main, fran spielman, just you, pilgrim. Bet, my winning powerball ticket, the next G.O will read a little differently and not like some more rehashed Ramsey CAPS rhetoric. Stay safe officers, G-d bless and thank you for your dedication and service, despite the lack of intelligent leadership both you and the taxpaying citizens are now suffering.

Good job Cmdr Walsh of 5 at compstat. Chief Tracey asked about a specific arrest involving cease fire. She proceeded to say cease fire doesn't deserve as much as credit as is being portrayed and the officers did a fantastic job.
The Bear said . . . And the saddest part of all? We (society) let it happen, even welcomed it.
Outstanding thoughtful and lucid post. Kudos, Bear
Provides a lot of disciplinary cover for doing nothing on the street
Just remember all you dems, Rham is an Obama guy and this is what is happening to our country as well. But you keep voting that way.
The tragedy that happened in Colorado last night is Terrible. Ours hearts go our to their families. Unfortunately all the democrats/hypocrites are gonna jump in on using this as a gun control measure. May they all rest on peace and hopefully no one will turn this tragedy into a political statement.
OT: Damn Rahm, if you had to hire former NYPD you should of hired Chief Dan Oates away from Aurora, Co. PD.
Wait until the ACLU and a few sleazy lawyers get wind the superintendent has ordered that gang members get denied bond. They are to be detained and sent to court without being allowed to bond out, even if they can post a cash bond. Mclegitimist orders they get held in custody. I'm no fan of gangbangers, but the federal courts have ruled on this and until it's changed it's not illegal to be a member or an associate of a street gang. Denying them bond strictly because of their affiliation with a gang is illegal. The SS has a bunch of reasons for sending someone to court instead of bonding them out; violence, previous arrests, etc., but not strictly for gang membership. There’s going to be a whole gaggle of jagoffs getting some of the City’s money on this one. Wait, does Rahmmy know he’s going to be writing a check because of Garry’s stupidity again? I doubt it.
You Guys [CPD] are all fucked with these Socialists running the Department now.
This order is nothing but a joke we already do some of these things. The other things is a bigger joke.
I do understand that the city wants to stop all the shooting, but why don't you just hire more police and then you wouldn't have to waste your time on stupid orders or on fixed posts.
This department is becoming a huge joke

Chicago Police to Monitor Theaters

One of the "merits" of multiple merit promotion is that everything keeps getting "Stupidified". This allows the unqualified leaders to speak to the troops in terms that seem intelligent only to the "leader".
Welcome to the Amos & Andy policing era !
George Stevens, aka: "The Kingfish" would be very proud.
Just remember, this is a Department General Order and as such, certain disciplinary avenues exits if it is not complied with.
4228 N Hermitage...feel free to walk by and gather in peaceful protest. FYI...the Emmanuels will not sign trespass complaints.
Utter and complete bullshit. This department has skidded so far it may never fully recover.
Whoa, wait a minute. You read the stuff that comes out of 35th Street? Wait a couple of days. Most of it gets rescinded.
I find it amusing when you guys rip on Mcarthy.He is no different then any superintendent. He has no real power he is just there to take the fall. They all put in a few years take the blame for the mayor get a nice pension and usually another nice job. ive been on this job for 19yrs and its always been the same. It is even worse now because its almost impossible to find anyone over the rank of Lt. with any balls just a sign of the times. The superintendent is a puppet no matter what dept. cpd, cfd, cps etc.. It has to be someones fault and it is not ever gonna be the mayors, reverends,HDO or whatever nationality political clout heavy group you pick. So quit bitchin about all this petty shit and start worrying about your pension and your healthcare.
They can't even number the order properly
Shouldn't this new order start with G12-???

two beats in 019 are bigger than the entire 015th district. and 019 has a higher population than 011, 015 and half of 008 combined. did you forget that all the city did was take away clark street as the border between 019 and 023? 019 and 023 were both shorthanded districts before the merger so i don't know where this "overabundance" of manpower you speak of is coming from. and last i checked half of the residents didn't magically disappear after the merger nor did 019 stop having tens of thousands if not hundreds of thousands of people visiting every weekend. check the unit summary, numerous beat cars down every night in 019.
5% ? Not bad.

Members who volunteered to work the Anti-Violence Overtime Initiative in June have not received their scheduled payment as of 4:45 pm today and the Department has not made any attempt to tell them why. Several members took it upon themselves to contact the Chicago Police Department Finance Division to inquire as to why they did not receive their pay. The Finance Division advised these members to contact the Lodge rather than offer an explanation.
After several inquiries to the Finance Division, the Lodge was advised that although today was the target date for payment, a problem with a payroll program resulted in the non-payment. The next payment target date is August 1, 2012.
While the Lodge and most of the affected members understand that computer problems can and do occur, we believe that our members deserve at the very least the common courtesy of an explanation by the Department that they serve. The Finance Division had to be aware of this problem early in the day, yet there was not any action taken to explain the situation to any of the hundreds of Officers who protected the citizens of the City of Chicago during what would have been their normal days off. Another thanks for a job well done!
Now the city isn't paying its employees for Special worked.
When finance was called we were told to call the union.
Why call the union? The city owes me pay not the union.
Pay me now Rahm!!
I bet your pay isn't missing.
A couple of times a year old Ed Sullivan's Sunday night TV show would feature a bear on a unicycle balancing a beach ball on his nose. This would usually be followed by Señor Wences who was a ventriloquist with a head in a box. Now that was entertaining!

A--hole award for the Month of July
Those split-second decisions can carry lasting consequences [use of tasers], said Craig Futterman, a University of Chicago law professor who studies policing and believes Chicago police have used Tasers too readily.
In a city stricken by violence, police need cooperation, particularly in troubled neighborhoods, he said. Any unwarranted use of force works against that goal, Futterman said.

Well then it's a good thing that every time I've used a taser or pistol it's been warranted.
UNION CONTRACT
Detroit mayor imposes 10 percent pay cut, layoffs
By Patrick Martin
20 July 2012
In a brutal attack on the jobs, living standards and democratic rights of the working class, Detroit’s Democratic mayor, David Bing, acted Wednesday to impose an across-the-board pay cut of 10 percent, major cuts in health benefits, and hundreds of layoffs, on top of huge concessions already accepted by municipal employee unions.
Bing was making the first use of his emergency powers under a “consent agreement” between the city government and the state of Michigan, which gives the mayor the authority to set pay and conditions for city employees in the absence of a union contract. The contracts for 35 of the 48 municipal employee unions expired June 30.
The mayor dismissed threatened lawsuits by the unions, declaring “we have to act, and we have to act now.” The Detroit City Council voted by 5-4 to reject the new employment conditions, but their action was meaningless under the consent agreement, which the same council ratified last month.

This just in from a source at Revenue
5% of all the CPD tickets issued last month were dismissed for Cause.
IE: the CPD doesn't know how to write tickets anymore.

OR, i.e. the fix was in.
The city invited 3200 applicants to take power test.
Like Detroit maybe CPD doesn't have a union contract anymore. I mean since that notification date stuff was missed and all.
It's all a matter of what "is" is and what residency means and when a bribe is a campaign contribution or just a bribe right?
Also like Detroit maybe hizz honor of the Sanctuary City will invoke emergency powers that allow him to cut pay, benefits, and perform layoffs?
I suppose your going to blame MC for the shooting in Colorado

Why would you waste the energy to post something so stupid?
Masters--Masters--Masters!
That turd was just interviewed on Channel 2 News at 6:00 PM. He advised "See Something-Say Something".
Okay Mike, I'll do it! I see you are still an asshole.
Morales mother suing Ravenswood Hosp. mgmt.because her son broke into an abandoned building
committing a crime , however once again a quick buck, because its " someone else's fault.
She doesn't understand what happened. Hopefully in court someone can clue her in with a verdict of $0.00
Off topic: Boy, the press Gods are working overtime for Michael Masters. CBS 6pm news was talking about how to make movie theaters safer...and guess who was their in-studio interviewed guest of honor? You got it!
Former Mayor Daley's under-the-desk fluffer and water carrier himself, Triple M! What a shmuck...and a huckster. Surprised Ray-Ray wasn't there holding
an umbrella over Masters' head. What this non-cop
won't do to increase his visibility since the Machine
forced Preckwinkle to take this (briefly) unemployed
former chief of staff for the CPD under her bloomers. Clearly, this man is gunning for some sort of political office...maybe Kirk's senate seat?
Now Masters can say that he's been fortunate to have been employed twice by local municipal
govt. in high profile jobs...both of which he was
woefully underqualified.
I heard there were NO I-bonds for ANYONE in 011. Is that true?
The Department will soon announce the Movie Theater Anti-Mass Murder Anti-Violence Initiative. Officers will be able to work their day off for premium pay to ensure a mass shooting doesn't happen here. Officers will be required to wear the 80/20 wool/polyester pants, shined shoes and crown cap. There are no performance requirements and officers on the medical roll are welcome to sign up provided they have two working arms and legs and can hold a gun.
Lacking sufficient volunteers officers will be assigned to work their day off by reverse seniority.
regarding the conviction of the police sergeant,
Terrible outcome. It is like when my dad would give me a slap, he did it because he loved me. If he didn't care he wouldn't do a thing. And you know, all these many years later, the old man was right, every time I got a slap, I deserved that slap. So a good working police sergeant gets convicted and his career is over. This at the same time everyone is scratching their heads wondering how to stop the murders or even slow them down.
Well I just don't have a clue on how to do that, a man who might have helped was just convicted in court of slapping a miscreant who deserved a slap. Better the police do nothing but stand there and beg the young animals not to kill each other. Who is going to do the job of police officer in the high crime areas? Do any of the genius's denigrating the police have the slightest clue on how to do it? I doubt it.
Maybe we will find out how to do it in the next anti-violence initiative, now how many is that this year?

"This department has skidded so far it may never fully recover."
Yeah... That's why there has been such an exodus of Coppers who all they really want to do is get out of the way when the whole damn thing falls in.
The beams are termite eaten and rotted from decay and neglect.
The powers that be cannot guilt-trip, bully or brow-beat the blue suits into even pretending to care long enough for the agenda of whoever is in charge to take hold.
Yet on the same hand, the blue suits are being blamed for the failed policies that are causing the collapse of this once great department.
This is off the topic, however, I was just wondering why we did not receive our Special Employment check. The FOP Website said it was for the Violence Reduction Initiative, but I did not have a deposit for any OT worked in June. Does anyone know what is up?
My thoughts and prayers are with the innocent victims families and the First Responders in Aurora Colo. The people of Aurora are experiencing the horror and anguish that the people of Chicago see everyday,but I'm sure their citizens will demand justice unlike this cesspool.
Thoughts and prayers to the victims in Aurora CO. I wish the guy in row A seat 1 was an off duty carrying. That's why I ALWAYS carry off duty. You never know.

Read the part about how every car - beat, rapid, tact, gangs, etc - assigned to a shooting scene will leave an info report by the end of the tour of duty documenting what they did to prevent retaliation. Discovery motions will love this. We'll all be down writing reports. More paper more paper more paper. WTF!

Actually this could be a cash cow for the troops on the street.
Just think of the court OT on this.
How many officers names will now be affixed to each and every shooting.
OT -
In February 2013 the new payroll/swipe system will be in full operation.
No more paper slips for CU/BFD/P Day/or OT
No more slip on the end of the shift.
No more Sgt. holding the slip cause you made a great pinch.
EVERYONE will be required to swipe in and out. And will be held accountable for your entire shift.
Should you take time on the end then a supervisor will have to drop paper to justify any time used.
Everything will be done on the computer and WILL be tied directly to payroll!
Wait until the ACLU and a few sleazy lawyers get wind the superintendent has ordered that gang members get denied bond. They are to be detained and sent to court without being allowed to bond out, even if they can post a cash bond. Mclegitimist orders they get held in custody. I'm no fan of gangbangers, but the federal courts have ruled on this and until it's changed it's not illegal to be a member or an associate of a street gang. Denying them bond strictly because of their affiliation with a gang is illegal. The SS has a bunch of reasons for sending someone to court instead of bonding them out; violence, previous arrests, etc., but not strictly for gang membership. There’s going to be a whole gaggle of jagoffs getting some of the City’s money on this one. Wait, does Rahmmy know he’s going to be writing a check because of Garry’s stupidity again? I doubt it.
Well thanks for clueing them in you fucking tool. What are you a copper going to John Marshall law school and looking to get out? Fuck all these gang bangers. maybe they'll get the shit kicked out of them in CC jail. We can only hope...
print up flyers
free tacos , polish sausage , hot dogs for all undocumented immigrants(not illegal) at rahms , durbins , quinn and daley's house
they welcome and invite the illegals (sorry undocumented) immigrants so they can't and won't sign complaints if they camp in their backyard or basement
it's not a crime they want a better life and they all live in better neighborhoods
OT
All it would have taken is for one armed movie-goer to blast that muther away.
"4228 N Hermitage...feel free to walk by and gather in peaceful protest. FYI...the Emmanuels will not sign trespass complaints."

Way to go. Back up your people.
You little worm.
Refuse to put up a fence, then demand a protection detail, then leave the officers hanging out there as the assholes to make their own case if something happens.
Uh-- hot news from any "workplace" in the world -- you don't do s__t for a boss like this.
On one job, I developed my own "policy" real fast. Fire starts, I'm the first one out the door. That's it. The motherf__er would have complained about the cost of recharging the fire extinguisher.
Expensive machinery left running, just leave it that way all night. Valve dripping something onto the floor, leave it. The geniuses will figure it out eventually. Pipe going "ssssssss," leave it.
..and, of course, the company will never hear a useful, original idea again. Ever. Obviously not paying me to think, so I'll stop.
The place stands vacant today...

Your face is all red. Are you actually crying?
What a tiny, resentful, childish accusation -- of whoever you are addressing.
Poor thing. Here's a juice box. Watch the nice cartoons.
Fuck that if thetly ain't going to pay us I going to call in everyone of my days

This, too, shall pass.
After 9/11, I saw a Walgreens store where they had piled all the shopping carts eight feet high around the front of the store and chained them together that way. Then they hired a "security guard" with a stick to stand next to them.
Achmed would have had to go around the block, and pull the truck bomb around back to the loading dock.

Somebody messed with the train tracks once -- was it in Arizona? -- and the next day police cars were assigned to sit near rail stops here. Anyone with evil ideas would have been scared a half-mile down the line.

Tired old voice of too many experiences -- don't get caught up in the hysteria around you. Try to stay on an even keel, take the long view. I think "professional" is the word I'm looking for -- but then you knew that already.
Heartfelt condolences to all who suffer from the Colorado tragedy, and "well done" to all of the responders who are still taking care of business, and to all of the citizens who are also supporting and assisting in their community's time of need.
@ 7/20/2012 12:19:00 PM...
Hey... Rahm-Ass Kisser!
You've been posting silly shit "contract updates" all over the fucking blog for the last week or so.
STFU and go back up against a door knob.
Formal sit-downs haven't even happened yet and you're trying to stir up shit.
Run away, hide and fuck yourself...
Please...
12hr day for Dics & Blue suits?
A 33% bump in pay since nobody is interested in a longer day for free?
Fuck Rahm and his merry band of millionaire misfits and fuck-ups trying to pick the captive middle class as losers and the non-contributory dogs of this city as the winners.
Hey scc off topic but important:
All the ideas and orders in the world will not get the workers energized until the word gets to : IPRA , IAD, and the Police Board, to ease the heck up ! Hard-chargers have seen what has been happening to the coppers who have gotten beefs. The day where the worker gets the benefit of the doubt has been long gone and has to be the rule of thumb again if the City wants to get a handle on the shootings. Mr Mayor if you want to truly decrease the shootings and homicides than let the chargers loose and have their backs. Not saying to have them go rogue but let them know that they have to work in that gray area in order to succeed. In order to outfox these criminal drug enterprises which are essentially behind the uptick in homicides. It starts with the investigative branch on beefs : iad or ipra. The cases would never get to the board if these two could see what was police minded work and what was just outright bogus disregard. 68 % of the coppers who have been in front of the board have been terminated and only 4 cases have been found not guilty . The rest were given suspensions and hefty ones at that. Same salary if you do reactive police work as if you do proactive .
The formerly great ship known as the Chicago Police Department is settling lower and lower in the water. Don't think the pumps can save her. She is going down by the bow, getting ready for the death plunge.
..as I drift away on my retirement raft.
. new multiplier 1.75% for every year after 20...
-------------------------------
puts you back at 34+ years to max out.
How about the Dogs that aren't even from Chicago and got this job over our family and friends? Their useless dogs, they take off all the time afraid to work and complain about this job. Then fucking quit, go the fuck back to New York or wherever. Hey we all know this is true and it's bullshit, Im not even talking about the medical abusing dogs now lol. Keep your heads up my fellow brothers ++
The general message conveyed is "We will help you if you will let us, but we will stop you if you make us."
ignore the former, rigorously apply the latter, and you'll have a bingo every time.

And . . .
less than a third are showing up, with 15 to 20 of every session failing.
These folks still have to complete the rest of the background; psych, polygraph, piss test, background invest, etc.
They have a LONG way to go before being hired. But it is a step in the right direction.
Giving others a voice (listening);
Neutrality in decision making;
Respectful treatment; and
Trustworthiness.

Too bad management doesn't implement this for us Patrolmen.
Comrades, this is Social Justice. It is part of what the Left has been using to corrupt this nation. This is now the policy, it seems, of the City of Chicagostan. Together we will goosestep with our comrade citizens. We are who we have been waiting for.

Well said!
08:23 U R dreaming, will never happen
new multiplier will not be 1.75 A year ago last January the new hirees had the pension changed to the last eight years instead of four . but the multiplier stayed the same at 2.5 for every year of service. The bill also changed the retirement age to 55 from 50
At roll call after reading the entire General Order, all those in attendance must watch and repeat the words in the (below) CPD Streaming Video.

You sir are the "tool". You obviously can't see beyond your own stupidity. Pointing it out to them, really? You're dumber that anyone gives you credit for. Our orders are available on line and every defense attorney has a full copy of them. And, if you would use your head for something other than a bad hairdo you would then see that by holding these jagoff in custody strictly because of the gang status is not only illegal, but that means they will have their case dumped in the morning and it will be SOL with no additional inconvenience to them. Hold them in the County jail, are you fucking kidding me? Like they will hold them in custody until their next court date for misdemeanor assault, battery, weed, cttl, cttv, the infamous reckless conduct or obstructing identification. Really? Are you really that naïve? Or just stupid? Well, if nothing else, you're a goof.

Along with all the other "Social Justice" mantras?
Social Justice = Take everything they can from the responsible,working people and give it to the scum that won't work and are a blight on society.
