Off Duty Carjacked
-
An off-duty Chicago Police officer was carjacked Monday night in the Calumet Heights neighborhood on the South Side, police said.
The female officer was in the 9000 block of South Crandon about 9 p.m. when three men — one of them armed — confronted her and demanded her money, purse and SUV, police News Affairs [...] said.
The three robbers took her purse and fled in her white 2012 Buick Enclave,...
The 58-year-old officer was not injured and her weapon was not taken,...
We don't know what you think, but we're pretty sure McFailure's "obliteration" list is getting kind of long. Maybe too much so - maybe we ought to start hiring people at some point that actually exceeds the rate of retirements.

Is the increase in crimes against off duty officers decreasing? Or, is the increase still increasing? If so it must be a failure of a commander and will cease if that boss will receive a tongue lashing and the next patsy in line assigned to take over his/her district. yeah, that's the ticket, another new commander who will order his/her officers to stop all crime immediately or else face the firing squad themselves.
Gotta hand it to old Anti-Crime McBourbon, he sure knows how to get the least from the most.
Seriously, be very careful out there, it is certainly getting dangerous. Time to be wearing your vest on duty and off and two guns at all times with one in your hand and a spare magazine readily available. I don't know why anyone would still be toting a revolver. Shoot six quick shots and it's party over old timer.
Be careful and alert, be safe!
Is that address in chatham? How is 90th and Crandon?
OT:
So why has a certain convicted and imprisoned former judge, Judge Paul Foxgrover, heavy in 19th Ward politics (think Vrdolyak) been seen sitting silently in court during hearings on a case at Daley Center involving 8 Chicago police officers and the former campaign manager for Dorothy Brown?
Says nothing, does nothing, just makes sure he is seen by the sitting judge on the case, walking in with the defendant and sitting by her.
Some type of 19th Ward message trying to be sent?
Be careful out there, the Feds might be watching.
Great, now the scum bags have 2 bullet proof vests too. Right in time to hide under their hoodies for winter
Head shots
Cops can't even protect themselves
How are average citizens?
New G.O. coming out Wednesday from McDrunk:
No one will be allowed to be off duty. Problem solved
That is all
World-Class baby!
Two vest and an ID gone says the trib.
The crisis ain't big enough to use for personal political gain yet. However another shipment of illegal immigrants are on the way to get their drivers licenses I suspect and so there's that..
Glad she's OK.
This is all gonna go away as soon as that Maggie Daley $55 million dollar park gets done. Oh and I don't know why the Cease Fire Street Friars didn't step up on this one. Where the heck are those million dollar guys anyways?
Why does the paper always omit the race and basic description of any offender?
It seems 20 years ago the media always gave the basics. Now we don't even get the race of the offenders!
Who gives a fuck! is the race that important to you, as opposed to a COMPLETE description, you racist asshole. One of ours got shot, off duty, geez, it's more important things to worry about fucknut!....Get well Officer!
*****************************************
This is from the officer shot comments, ARE YOU SERIOUS? 80% of the "complete" description can be changed in minutes and over time more can change, race isn't one of those. It's an extremely important part of the description and leaving it out is careless and in poor judgement. We ALL have a race not just the poor "black and brown" people, if the offender was white say he's fucking white, if he's black or Hispanic, say he's black or Hispanic.
And, of course, no Tribune mention of the suspect's description.
This has to be a media lie!!! Tiny D said this is the safest city in america...
change pensions change the residency rule,get well soon officer.
As if they didn't have all the guns in the world now we hand them body armor too
Coming soon to a home invasion or street corner near you, CPD armor!
LoL
gmac doesn't care about the manpower shortage--- gmac is just worried about one person, himself--- another north side commander just got her wings clipped because she had the audacity to ask gmac for more manpower in her district--- some of the slower districts have had manpower whittled down to nothing--- it's right there on the sheets for all three watches everyday for anyone to see--- the xo's know it, the dss's know it, the sgt's know it, and the coppers on the beat/rapid cars know it--- everyone knows it so why no bid openings to replace the dozens of retirements in some of these districts--- the answer is that gmac doesn't give a flying f$#k about the patrol division....
Ok u have a gun your justified fear now why not blast the fuckers with your gun. Hell il take a couple of days if I know I would probably prevent others from getting robbed or killed by these muts!!
those "LITTLE DARLINGS"
Stop buying or stopping anywhere in the city.
Yeah, this is getting ridiculous. It might be time to upgrade my off duty weapon. I'm not sure the little snub nose is going to do it anymore.
The City needs to hire a lot more Police, and soon!
Out of CONTROL. city,

In case you dont already know, the UScourt of appeals in Illinois has ruled the laws in Illinois that prohibit concealed carry are unconstitutional and it gave the Illinois legislature 180 to craft a new law allowing concealed carry. WOW! This changes everything. Quinn and Rahm and Trouter and Acevedo will have a seizure and will no doubt tell tall tales of impending doom and blood baths on the streets of Chicago.
Oooo-oh. Did Chicago's political apparatus just get their azzes handed to them again??

THIS JUST IN… Federal appellate court rules Illinois gun carry laws unconstitutional
Tuesday, Dec 11, 2012
We are disinclined to engage in another round of historical analysis to determine whether eighteenth-century America understood the Second Amendment to include a right to bear guns outside the home.
The Supreme Court has decided that the amendment confers a right to bear arms for self-defense, which is as important outside the home as inside. The theoretical and empirical evidence (which overall is inconclusive) is consistent with concluding that a right to carry firearms in public may promote self-defense.
Illinois had to provide us with more than merely a rational basis for believing that its uniquely sweeping ban is justified by an increase in public safety. It has failed to meet this burden.
The Supreme Court’s interpretation of the Second Amendment therefore compels us to reverse the decisions in the two cases before us and remand them to their respective district courts for the entry of declarations of unconstitutionality and permanent injunctions.

As I've said before. Time to expand that space for the cities law department under Rahm's $12 million dollar city hall renovation plan.
He's gonna keep pisssing money away on constitutional challenges and appeals -- the lawyers are loving it!
Illinois ban on concealed carry struck down by U.S. Supreme Court. Thank God! Now my wife can protect herself in this shit city also.
Concelaed Carry will be the law in IL according to federal court!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Fuck you Daley, Quinn, Rham and Madigan.

U.S. appeals court strikes down state's concealed-carry ban
By Ray Long

The state of Illinois would have to allow ordinary citizens to carry weapons under a federal appeals court ruling issued today, but the judges also gave lawmakers 180 days to put their own version of the law in place.
In a 2-1 decision that is a major victory for the National Rifle Association, the U.S. Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals said the state's ban on carrying a weapon in public is unconstitutional.
"We are disinclined to engage in another round of historical analysis to determine whether eighteenth-century America understood the Second Amendment to include a right to bear guns outside the home. The Supreme Court has decided that the amendment confers a right to bear arms for self-defense, which is as important outside the home as inside," the judges ruled.
"The theoretical and empirical evidence (which overall is inconclusive) is consistent with concluding that a right to carry firearms in public may promote self-defense. Illinois had to provide us with more than merely a rational basis for believing that its uniquely sweeping ban is justified by an increase in public safety. It has failed to meet this burden.
"The Supreme Court’s interpretation of the Second Amendment compelled the appeals court to rule the ban unconstitutional, the judges said. But the court gave 180 days to "allow the Illinois legislature to craft a new gun law that will impose reasonable limitations, consistent with the public safety and the Second Amendment as interpreted in this opinion, on the carrying of guns in public."
Illinois is the only state in the nation not to have some form of conceal carry after Wisconsin recently approved law.
"The (Illinois) legislature, in the new session, will be forced to take up a statewide carry law," said NRA lobbyist Todd Vandermyde.
The lobbyist said prior attempts to reach a middle ground with opponents will no longer be necessary because "those compromises are going out the window."
Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan's office is reading the just-issued opinion and is unable at this point to comment about the prospects of filing an appeal, a spokeswoman said.

Seventh Circuit Invalidates Ban on Carrying Loaded Guns in Public...
"Majority on divided three-judge Seventh Circuit panel invalidates under the Second Amendment an Illinois law forbidding most people from carrying a loaded gun in public.
Circuit Judge Richard A. Posner wrote the majority opinion, in which Circuit Judge Joel M. Flaum joined. Circuit Judge Ann Claire Williams issued a dissenting opinion.
Update: The majority opinion concludes: “we order our mandate stayed for 180 days to allow the Illinois legislature to craft a new gun law that will impose reasonable limitations, consistent with the public safety and the Second Amendment as interpreted in this opinion, on the carrying of guns in public.”

* Sandy Jackson plans to resign from City Council if JJJr goes to prison - will take 2 children home to DC to raise them.
How will the city ever run without her?
DON'T LET THE DOOR HIT YOU IN THE ASS ON THE WAY OUT!
There are no more safe areas in Chicago. Crime can and will happen anywhere these days. Just think, in the last few days crime has been happening to off-duty cops. And if it can happen to COPS, what do you think is happening to the citizens? In the downtown area just a few days ago, around State street by the subway area a group of twenty African-American teenagers were acting like idiots shouting this is our city, we run this town. So much for a regular citizen not feeling intimadated going shopping during the Christmas season. I'm sorry for what is happening to our city, it USED to be fine. I'm moving out as soon as I retire......such a shame, but it is out of control. So many issues....too little time to fix em all in my lifetime.
off topic: Just read on the Slum-Times site that he 7th District Court of Appeals just threw out Illinois' ban on concealed carry and gave the state 6 months to draft a concealed carry law. It doesn't pertain to me as I have my retired PO concealed carry permit but now legit people, including my loved ones and yours, now have the option of being prepared to lawfully defend themselves. Most of the comments are favorable except for a few dyed-in-the-wool sheeple.
Al Porrata, a beloved officer from 018 on midnights passed away this morning after a battle w/ cancer. please keep him and his family in your prayers.

9000 S. Crandon Ave. is on Beat 413 in the Calumet Heights community just east of "Pill Hill".
what is going on with the 5 desk officers in 010?
IL HAS 180 DAYS TO PASS A CONCEALED CARRY LAW!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yea!!!! But Watch Quinn wast your tax payer dollars to apeal
Write Quinn and Tell Him You have right to defend yourself and Not to Wate your money on appeal
Eventually the law may pass for Illinois, but both the state and city will make is so difficult to get the permit, many people will not get one
They can do it with forcing long and expensive classes, expensive qualifications, many other ways
Just like retirees having to pay $75.00 and qualify every year in Joliet in order to carry a firearm.
"""

I already don't stay stopped at red lights and don't buy gas within the county. As much as I can I'll try to time grocery shopping with times I'll be out of the city or county. If I'm buying a TV or furniture or big stuff you can bet it's not done around here.
Fuck this place.
For the person asking no that address isn't Chatham but it is a solid middle class area where people take pride in the neighborhood. We don't want the scumbags here either..... Trust Us!
If there is a violent crime in Chicago and there is no description, it means it is the same description as 88% of the other crimes. Why be redundant.
Because that former convicted judge is still very dirty and may be in trouble again. There's someone out there that knows a little something about the dirty former judge.
Damn... Shit is REAL! Even on the home front.
Rahm & McHam-Head's plan to shittify this city beyond recognition.
No safe haven for anyone... Especially the city employees who live in formerly "safe" areas.
Rahm's Revenge...
OK... Intruders, ne'er-do-wells and shit-birds of all stripes will just have to be "dealt with" neatly and quietly.
As one grim poet said... No cute innuendo. If the upright man has to protect his family, better that he does it from the shadows.
*Moonless night in a forest preserve... Hefty Steel Sack garbage bags... A shovel... A bag of lime*
If ya gotta make noise... Leave no survivors other than yourself.
The media, the politicians and Cook County court system are not the friends of the sensible man fighting to keep his family and castle safe.
They hate when the "little guy" fights back and wins...
They want YOUR skin donated as THEIR tithe to curry favor with the lowest societal denominators.
To those of you who made fun of Coppers admitting they won't even take the trash out without a pistol and a reload plus turning the dogs loose/having someone in the homestead at the window with a long arm watching their backs...
THIS is what it looks like when the societal toilet overflows.
Any questions?
P.S.
Don't be so fast to ditch the 5-shot snubbies... Especially your Centennials & Bodyguards.
No need to spell out why...
Patrolmen from Chicago!

Gotta love that fuckin southside. I keep asking my partner WHY THE FUCK DO YOU STAY THERE? Especially, with a son nearing high school age!
Glad the PO's OK.
Gun control in this state is just not working. The. criminals don't pay any attention to it. Innocent citizens are sitting ducks for these predators. Even the odds. Give good people a chance to fight back. These politicians have no right to force their personal views on an entire state.

Is that a threat or a promise? Oh I know. Sandy will resign so that she can dedicate herself full time to running her campaign for US congress and fill in as JJJ's replacement.

Chuck's in Riverdale gives decent cop discounts. Some people don't like them but I've had decent experiences especially with that nice lady that works there. There's only one person there I'd prefer not to work with...so I avoid him. But the lady is a sweetheart and is really helpful, plus if it makes you feel better...Jesse Jackson finds time to protest against it once a year :)

-----------------------------------
I may be considered a junior by some(20+ yrs) and agree with old timer. Revolvers don't jam, thats why I carry one. Plus they are much lighter and easy to carry all day, without having to pull my pants up every 20mins, with the weight of the semi.
Don't get me wrong , I do carry both and each has its place, but I prefer the revolver.
Practice and you'll never need more than 6. Because if there's that many rounds flying and you havent hit your target, your game will be over no matter what you carry.
"I don't know why anyone could be toting a revolver..."
They don't jam and with speedloaders, you can reload almost as quickly as a pistol.
If you have to ask how 90th and Crandon is, please stay away. We don't need any more statistics.
