The Law of Garry

  • With Chicago’s murder rate capturing national headlines, Police Supt Garry McCarthy is on the defense, touting recent progress his department has made in the fight against crime.

    Still, headlines and news stories continue about murder after murder in Chicago, but are the numbers they telling the whole story?

    [...]

    On patrol Monday, McCarthy talked candidly about the bloodshed in Chicago that has drawn national attention.
And what happens as soon as McLookOverThere! opens his mouth?
  • A man was killed and a person critically hurt in separate shootings on the South Side overnight, police said. The fatal shooting occurred about 9 p.m. Monday in the 8800 block of South Cottage Grove Avenue in the Burnside neighborhood, police said, citing early reports.  
  • Patterson was walking home from a family get-together with her sister early this morning, and was passing Carter and other neighbors at Eggleston and 120th when a dark-colored car drove past and someone inside opened fire, according to family and police. Patterson, 25, was dead at the scene. Carter, 38, was taken to Advocate Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn, where he was pronounced dead.
  • A former employee of the CeaseFire violence prevention program was fatally shot today in the Woodlawn neighborhood on the South Side, officials said.
  • An autopsy conducted today determined that a man whose body was found by city workers in a garbage bag in Marquette Park Monday was shot to death.
  • An autopsy today determined a 55-year-old South Loop man died Monday in part from injuries he suffered during an assault, authorities said. 
  • A hooded gunman shot and killed a 20-year-old man on the street hours after another man was slain in the same South Side neighborhood, Chicago police said this morning.
  • A 17-year-old boy was fatally wounded this evening in a shooting on the South Side in the city’s Oakland neighborhood. 
All in less than 48 hours since McTootMyOwnHorn gave his Channel 2 interview.  How about maybe Garry solves some of these?  Not one person is in custody for any of these crimes.

Notice how they are starting to lift the criteria (movers, parkers, contact cards) to work their southside violence mission special emp. They have two sep. sites to sign up for special. They spend more money on "hire backs" than they would just hiring new police officers at entry level pay!

Hey Supt! Why don't you "Grow some Balls" and Tell Rahm if he refuses to hire 1,400 officers like we have been telling you and now the Illinois Crime Commission is telling you that he can find himself another lacky to stand in front of the media every week and lie about the numbers! Cause lets face it, your going to be the scape goat anyway! Talk to that mother fucker the way you spoke and handled yourself to the media at NATO! What the fuck do you have to loose, the way I see it your days are numbered here anyway!

You mean the mayor and his tool stooge at the head of the police department are lying?

You must be mistaken. Socialists in the democratic party would never lie to the people.

The beach was too hot near the cool water, crime is down and there is no rat problem.

Site recently seen at the Harold Washington library:

McEatingHisWords and Tom Skilling pouring over several editions of The Farmer's Almanac trying to find an explanation for the recent anomaly of ghetto violence in less-than-tropical conditions.

Truly a baffling phenomenon that not even the now-defunct Crystal Ball Unit could see coming.

Not really sure why u constantly give McCarthy the business. The whole speech at the black church was bad, but he's a politician and has to pander to the crowd sometimes. But, all in all, I don't think he's doing that bad. I feel like he's a policemans supt, unlike jfed. Has he thrown anyone under the bus? I can't really recall any incidents. Seems like he's a decent boss and we could do a hell of a lot worse.

You must be one of the young dollies he is out drinking with.

McCarthy has run this Department like a fraternity: screaming at subordinates, trying to get laid and drinking bouts that would make W.C.Fields envious.

If he is a decent leader, I wonder what you are used to.

True he hasnt thrown anyone under the bus, but unfortunately some of the clowns we have do deserve to be demoted, and that's part of being a leader also.

Maybe this is the "super secret" crime reduction strategy that has yet to be revealed to the public.

If they've got a sheet and they get "kilt," why that is going to keep the future numbers down!

By George, I think he might just have something here. A genuine reduction in the future increase.

Yeah, we could do worse if you were superintendent for instance.

We had Matt Rodriguez and Terry Hillard, we complained and we got Phat Phil Cline. We complained and we got Jody Weiss. We complained and we got McCarthy. A steady parade of worse and worse bosses.

Jeez, I long for the good old days with Fred Rice. The City was still corrupt then but Fred Rice was the real police.

Nobody, thats who ,its way beyond adding another 1,400 officers

Last night in 025 the Lt. asked for a volunteer to do contact cards between 0400 and 0600. This is the stupidity we as a department are dealing with. This is all they care about, I know this goes on city wide but seriously contact cards between certain times of the day? After hearing the request several officers were laughing at the stupidity. This job isn't even police work anymore.

Dear scc: to 2:37 am, you are an idiot.

Your second sentence explains why you are an idiot. There is no room in policing for politics. Hi read all of the policing manuals you can find and they will tell you about how politics intermingled with policing strategies, community policing ( not the chgo way) department administrative functions, etc., screws up the department and the core mission/objectives. Politics should not play a part in policing. Just because politics are a part of our department doesn't make it right. He can meet with the reverends but he didn't have to give a history lesson and one that made the police and the white man the scapegoat. A politician can do that because that's all they know, the head of the police dept. Should stick to policing. He should have that value inside of him/her, and when asked to deal with the public, which should ordinarily not be a problem, he should do it with his department's back covered, not hung out to dry. He is the boss and should act like it.

What you guys call Contact Cards we call Uf-250's in NYC. (Stop, Question, Frisk forms) Just check out the lawsuits that have come out of this endless demand to SQF. Cops in uniform are being forced to go out and toss people for no reason and are getting jammed up left and right. There is a time for it, dont get me wrong, like when a Cop gets assaulted or injured, the gloves come off. But to do it just to satisfy the quotas and to make the bosses look like they are being proactive results in Cops taking the heat for bullshit stops. Now Cops are stopping 75 year old men, 12 year old boys, mental patients, handicaps... anyone just to be able to fill out the form. Many have been even making up bullshit names and "refused I.D." just to get the bosses off their backs. But this leads to guys getting jammed up for no good reason. Thats where you guys are headed with this robotic formula for reducing crime.
