- When some Chicagoans think of the police department, disgraced cops like Anthony Abbate or Jon Burge might come to mind.
Or last year’s rising gun violence.
But a University of Illinois at Chicago survey of more than 4,000 people showed a mostly positive public opinion of the men and women in blue.
More than 80 percent of those surveyed said they were somewhat satisfied — or very satisfied — about their recent encounters with officers.
This has got to piss off Rahm to no end. Especially with contract negotiations in the offing.
This tidbit at the end got our attention though:
This tidbit at the end got our attention though:
- Meanwhile, only 25 percent of the murders in 2012 were solved last year — including about 9 percent solved “exceptionally,” meaning police identified a suspect but closed the case without charges because they couldn’t get a witness to testify, couldn’t get prosecutors to file charges or the suspect is dead.
Union officials say a shortage of detectives — as well as a lack of public cooperation — has contributed to the low clearance rate, the lowest in two decades.
Depending on how the number wizards are playing with those stats, 25% minus the 9% "Exceptionally Cleared - Closed" might mean that only 16% of murders ever get prosecuted? That's a sad state of affairs.

BIDEN SAYS OBAMA COULD USE EXECUTIVE ORDERS TO RESTRICT GUNS
By John Whitesides and Mark Felsenthal
WASHINGTON | Wed Jan 9, 2013 6:23pm EST
(Reuters) - Vice President Joe Biden said on Wednesday the White House is determined to act quickly to curb gun violence and will explore all avenues - including executive orders that would not require approval by Congress - to try to prevent incidents like last month's massacre at a Connecticut school.
Kicking off a series of meetings on gun violence, Biden said the administration would work with gun-control advocates and gun-rights supporters to build a consensus on restrictions. But he made clear that President Barack Obama is prepared to act on his own if necessary.
"We are not going to get caught up in the notion that unless we can do everything, we're going to do nothing. It's critically important that we act," said Biden, who will meet on Thursday with pro-gun groups including the National Rifle Association, which claims 4 million members and is the gun lobby's most powerful organization.
Biden, whose panel was formed after 20 schoolchildren and six adults were killed on December 14 by a gunman at an elementary school in Newtown, Connecticut, has been ordered by Obama to come up with policy proposals on guns by the end of January.
The vice president said there was a consensus on "three or four or five" steps regarding gun safety, but did not specify what they were.
"There are executive orders, executive action that can be taken. We haven't decided what that is yet," Biden said, adding that Obama is conferring with Attorney General Eric Holder on potential action.
Biden's group is expected to recommend to Congress the reinstatement of an assault weapons ban that expired in 2004.
The Washington Post has reported the group also will ask Congress for broad restrictions that include tracking the sale and movement of weapons via a national database, and stiffer checks on the mental health of prospective gun buyers.
During his daily briefing, White House spokesman Jay Carney declined to discuss any action Obama might take on his own on guns. "Those decisions haven't been made," Carney said...

This was top news on Al Jazeera and other foreign outlets tonight.
"Getting away with Murder" is no longer a figure of speech. In Chicago every law abiding citizen should arm themselves!
Odds are 5 to 1 that you will get away with murder in Chicago.
Odds are almost mathematical certainty that local Democratic politicians will get away with graft and corruption--and they'll be reelected.
Is it any wonder why Illinois leads the nation per capita in people moving out of state?
----OFF TOPIC----
Mr Mayor has out sourced the Benefits office, they answer the phone in Atlanta Ga.now. Shipping jobs to the sun belt!!!
Oh they can't find me in the computer just a little problem I'm told the supervisor will call me Ha Ha Ha Ha 3 days now they have not fixed it and I have not been able to talk to a supervisor, in meeting i'm told.
I always liked "suspend", usually due to lack of cooperation from the victim and/or witnesses.
Ok, first off even 16% clearence rate is an exaggeration to say the least. We are lucky if 10% are Cleared Closed with an arrest. Now, of those rare cases where there is an arrest, the conviction rate is appaling.
Murder hands down is the easiest crime to get away with in the City of Chicago. Unfortunately, no one seems to care and it will only get worse.
So if you blast someone in the head you have an 84% chance that you'll get away with it...and they still think that banning weapons will act as a deterrent because it's a law?
We have to wonder out of the 16% that get prosecuted how the plea deals and early release data relates?
I have always appreciated the job you folks do. Maybe my parents just raised me right.
I wanna see the demographic variances between the 80+% that were "somewhat satisifed" or "very satisfied" with us versus the 19+% that opined otherwise.
Just to confirm what I already know.
Rahm pitched a shit-fit at this bit of positive press...
"My plan to drive a wedge between those coppers and the public MUST SUCCEED so I can bust them out and privatize CPD without political fall out and take their pension money from them!"
Then he kicked McLustyLush in his ass.
"I hired YOU to walk those coppers to a stand-still with bullshit! What the fuck is happening here?"
*Duh-eeee! I dunno!*
"Well damnit! Do something! Leak some shit to Sneed or Spielman press about an investigation or something. We can't have these guys looking good during contract time."
Are you kidding me, putting abbate's name in with Burge. Burge was a hero and how they treated him is one of the biggest injustices in the history of the police dept.
Haaaahaaaa, and of those 16%, how many convictions. Goes to show that murder is one of the easiest crimes to get away with. GO CHALKIE!!
Well, when a university professor feels the urge to teach or "indoctrinate" his students during an economics or math class, this is what you get. A mass of sheeple who have been trained to believe that "soft, easy going, faceless people" called police, can combat crime with an olive branch, not a sword. Then they actually encounter a copper and are probably intimidated, oh, not because of your black knit hat, or your lats forcing your arms out like a coat hanger, but because you are an image of the government, which has been taught to these students as being all caring and all powerful and all watching. Strangely, this is the government they want. Meanwhile, in the ghetto, not only are we loosing the battle, but they believe that they control city/state policy, via rioting. what a wacky place this is.
Softball survey full of libtard-worded questions. I, of course, answered positively because I think highly of the CPD. I'm sure the survey results are skewed, since the majority of respondents were probably "responsible" people.
SCC,
Can we please do a thing like the Traffic statistic study with who was satisfied and who wasn't? If the government wants to see who I am stopping then I wanna see who is happy with us and who is not.
I already have the answer to that, I would just like to see it on paper. West side very unhappy, north side working people happy.
In our dummycrap society we only are given the numbers that will keep us dumb and dumber.
Oh and didn't Australia ban guns? Look at how their violent crime has risen. Just stating the facts, just the facts please!!!
Burge is a piece of shit and I'm a white copper.why don't you do what he did and have somebody tape it and show it to the feds you idiot.
I have a question for SCC:
So is the blog writing itself? ('cause ya just can't make this stuff up!)
Or are you working really hard?
Great postings, and a lot of good stuff this new year. Excellent Job!
You think the murder clearance rate is abysmal, take a look at the burglary clearance rate. Worse. And now that ET's take days to even dust for prints it is like the city has just given up on solving property crimes.
Lose stuff in a burglary? Report it to insurance and forget about it.
OT Speaking of Abbate. Word from the grapevine is that a couple of weeks ago, our dear friend Anthony was at a local establishment on the N side, around Harlem and Irving, when he started talking smack to another female bartender. Only this time, a member of, oh lets say, the "INLAWS" heard this and beat him with a cue stick and bit his face. Any word on how true this is? Apparently this biker is not too fond of Anthony and doesn't like those who beat on females.
Val Warner on the Chicago TV show Windy City Live said Wednesday morning, "There's a homocide everyday in Chicago." matter of factly. They hosts, including Roe Conn, were all complaining how dangerous the city is nowadays. They do this every show it seems, to "keep it real."
The show replays late night also. Mancow sometimes shows up to rip Emanuel a new one. Though they drink the Koolaid they echoe our sentiments a lot.

January 8, 2013 (WLS) -- More people are moving out of Illinois than almost any other state in the country, according to a new study by a moving company.
It shows Illinois trails only New Jersey in the number of residents making an exodus in 2012.
The study was conducted by United Van Lines.
They would know and have no reason to sugarcoat it. In fact are showing how well their business is doing.
They didn't ask me, but I'm in the 80%+ that support the Police. It's a very tough job and all decent folks appreciate the work you men and women in blue do. Thank You.
Will you LAY OFF Burge??!! IF he did what they say he did, those scumbags deserved it!
"I'm good enough. I'm smart enough. And doggone it, people like me."
Officer Smalley
I know plenty of coppers waiting for that call for Detective training who would be more than happy to help increase those stats. Seven years of waiting and hoping. More than a few would have had it if Merit wasn't an option. Me included. Still waiting and hoping for the call!
most of my neighbors fully support the police--- as far as all the unsolved homicides go, I'm siding with the dick's on this one--- most of these are gang related shithead on shithead--- how credible is a guy with tatooes all over his face and a 10 page rap sheet--- you sit down and talk to these people and you realize that they are retarded and their brain has been melted away from years of drinking and smoking dope--- how can you put this crap in front of a judge....
Now do you believe me?
It's sort of like "epic battle sequences" in movies, for those of us who aren't action fans. Some of us understand that even if it's not to our personal taste, somebody has to grab a sword and deal with those Orcs, or there will not be a happy ending.
And IMHO it's time people, including those professors, started recognizing that laws require enforcement--it's not like making wishes that a genie will simply grant. So we shouldn't ask for laws we're not prepared to support in every way. (Unlike, say, Prohibition, where the law was only meant for everybody else.)
Again, thanks.
==Law Abiding Citizen
Back in the day...1970's 1980's the solve rate was at 90+...what changed?
Well the people who are satisfied with police didn't come from the 011 desk. The jagoff wannabe desk sgt told me to go fuck my self when I simply asked him for an ibond. Wow what a prick. I ask for an ibond he says " no offense but do it your damn self, this is 011 we are too busy for your petty traffic shit". I reply that I was going to do it myself but I don't know where you keep your ibonds can you please direct me to them. He replys back hey this I fillmore deal with it. I don't know what he means by that,but thanks for nothing brother.
If Jesus Christ himself suddenly decended from heaven and was qouted as saying "I'm 100% behind the CPD", it would be a non-issue as far as Rahm would be concerned. If Rahm doen't believe in it, it doesn't exist.
Are you kidding me, putting abbate's name in with Burge. Burge was a hero and how they treated him is one of the biggest injustices in the history of the police dept.
1/10/2013 02:39:00 AM
You are correct. Jon Burge was a hero and he was treated shamelessly. He always did his best to keep all God-fearing, law-abiding citizens of all races safe from the murderers and rapists who live amongst us. God bless him.
Come on now, it really doesn't matter how many detectives or even police we have when it comes to solving murders.
Even when we know EXACTLY who did it, the GREATER majority of these murders happen in areas that have no concern for life. Witnesses don't cooperate or exist, hell even victims don't want shit to do with the police. Here I can write a narrative for the next shooting right now and I bet it will be almost exact.
R/O arrived and found victim sitting on the porch crying like a bitch. R/O inquired as to the victims well being to wit the victim replied, "I was fittina walk to the store and I heard shots and felt pain in my ass!" R/O inquired about offenders, victim replied he saw nothing. Victim's friend who was with him at the time relates he heard shots but saw nothing as well.
Then the notifications take up the next 2 pages.
I served as a homicide detective in this city for 30 + years. It wasn't that long ago that we maintained a 90% cleared and closed rate on a regular basis. I can also tell you that if the department is now saying that only 9% of our cleared homicide cases are exceptionally cleared this is the most tampered with statistic that I have seen in a long time. Any homicide detective with more than a year experience will back me up on this.
The appointment of supervisors in the detective division who have absolutely no experience as a detective has been the cause. You have so many in policy making positions that have never investigated a case as a detective.
The entire top command of the detective division lacks anyone who actually worked as a detective. Some are good administrators, most were supervisors in the division, but few were actually detectives. Let's face it. You have to have some basic experience or knowledge to perform the job properly. Many of the other supervisors have less than a year or two of experience as an actual detective.
This is what happens when you pick the leaders on a meritorious basis and not via real ability.
Add this one now.

what a fucking joke!!! that many murderers get away unscaved? hahaha!!! if stupid rahmie-fuck(i hate you rahm!!!) cared so much about the people of chicago then why doesn't he hire more officers so there can be more detectives to be promoted? it is quite simple rahmie. i suppose it is okay for barry and yourself to be armed to the gills but anyone else is not allowed to. ha, fuck you, you astronomically ignorant deceiving fuck!!!

Not writing tickets for MR in Belmont. His career has advanced shockingly far. He doesn't need tix from me. I did however issue a personal service citation cuz I thought the Lt was a decent guy(I'll B stabbed in the back by him sooner rather then later)and it has been awhile. The person thanked me for the PSC and said "We were doing a good job." I wanted to make that disappear so bad, but we'll see eachother again. If the judge asks me anything my memory of a routine traffic stop might be cloudy in roughly 30 days.
We wuv woo!
This poll is not even close to the truth. For all the number fudging police do you should know better. The survey was based on letters sent to people who reported a crime or were involved in traffic stop. (AKA people who CALLED police or got a traffic stop.) Less than 10% responded to letter. So over NINETY PERCENT did not even comment, but you claim 80% like the job you do? Cmon now.

It seems that LT JA was too busy to handle his assigned Station Supervisor Duties that he pulled a Sergeant off the street to handle his duties on wednesday and today.
The gossip around the station water cooler was that the LT had much more pertinent stuff(personal) to tend to so he needed a sgt to do what he is suppossed to do.
Must be nice to just tell someone to handle your job because you have other work to do. Must be nice to come in LATE and then leave EARLY.
Time for the DC to get rid of him and have him transferred where he will have very little oversight of personnel. This is a man who has chased 4 sgts away and at least 7 PO's in recent months and , does not believe he has anything to do with it.
Do as I say, not as I do.
Don't worry LT, everyone is keeping tabs of your actions and verbal abuses of your PO's and Sgts.

Roof top rev giving $$$ to Ex Detroit mayor on trial for multiple charges. Stinks
I see all of our no minded crooks on the news tonight. Rahm is gonna put his ban together. Durban is gonna work n the senate to ban. The country is broke. The state , city and county are beyond broke yet all these stupid bastards can do is rally around a subject that is not needed which is a gun ban. I guess this keeps stupid people from asking legitimate questions about what plagues us all. It's not guns.
80% of the shit bags in the wood would disagree !
I've always liked the CPD, Rahm I don't like at all. Nuff said.
Grateful citizen from the 16th District.
I'm a civilian who lives in Gold Coast. I was in a argument with a cabbie. Cabbie gets out of the cab and brings the sergeant on my beat over to the resolve the problem. Handled the situation like a true professional.
I had the sad occasion to be involved in a traffic accident on the south side. No injuries. The other driver was at fault with no insurance. The officers who investigated the accident were professional and courteous. I am appreciative that they did not put my phone number on the report. I know the other driver would have been harassing me to pay for their damage. Thanks for all that you do Officers!
A big lawsuit was filed yesterday in federal court by a cpd officer assigned to narcotics... A whole lot of allegations that don't look good for a sgt, a former LT who is now a commander and the current narcotics commander.

Or, maybe the narcotics officer knows Chicago is the city that settles and he's looking for a big payday. And, maybe he has tried this game before.
Lets first restrict gun ownership of the people who have to protect politicians. Do the whole world a favor.
Word is Walter Green retireda few days ago, showed up at 35th st today for cake & coffee, blasted McStupid anda few other exempts....had the multipurpose room in stitches!
Heard Walter green went off and called out a bunch of useless commanders at compost. Anyone have the skinny?
CFD FF here.
I ALWAYS tell people that not only do you guys have a VERY VERY difficult job but the VAST majority of you guys/gals are VERY professional and restrained.
I work primarily where your 3rd and 4th districts are located. DANGEROUS area. I've never seen a PO act out of line or treat anyone badly. I've certainly never witnessed a PO physically abuse anyone either.
You guys deserve a LOT MORE credit than you get.
I'm glad the survey was a positive for CPD - you deserve it.

Well the people who are satisfied with police didn't come from the 011 desk. The jagoff wannabe desk sgt told me to go fuck my self when I simply asked him for an ibond. Wow what a prick. I ask for an ibond he says " no offense but do it your damn self, this is 011 we are too busy for your petty traffic shit". I reply that I was going to do it myself but I don't know where you keep your ibonds can you please direct me to them. He replys back hey this I fillmore deal with it. I don't know what he means by that,but thanks for nothing brother.

I call bullshit on your post. The desk people in 11 are some of the hardest working desk crews I have ever come across. I've worked in 6 diff districts in 26 years on, worked special all over the city and I can honestly say 11s people are the most knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. Afternoon shift is hands down busiest desk in city prob doing easily 3X the work of the next busiest district. Don't forget they have every district in the area, the A4 dick units, various outside units, all of Homan Sq, UIC, State Police and I believe a couple hospital police agencies they handle prisoners for all coming thru there to make the workload absolutely insane. I cant count the times the desk people work thru their lunch answering phones, writing reports, approving in inventories etc etc. If there is any truth to what you say there is no doubt that YOU came off like an entitled stroke. I'm guessing you don't work there by what you say, but I do bet you came barging in like you work there. If that's the case you need to be put in your place son because there's a way things are done everywhere. When you're in someone else's house you'd best be humble. And if you do work there you sound like every other entitled a**hole that needs everything done and pointed out for him. Are you maybe an elite tact team stud that is above doing your own bonds? Is that the case? Either way, you'd better respect the inside folks, most have paid their dues long ago and know much more than you'd think. Either way I can bet YOU have the chip on your shoulder and NOT the 1/W? 2/W? 3/W? desk people.
From a troll: My only contact with CPD has been a traffic ticket or three over the years. Sometimes I am a little heavy on the long pedal and a little late on the brake. So I never got a ticket I didn't deserve. And I would say the three cops were decent. But I will say I have recently taken to listening to my scanner at work, usually what ever zone 007 and 008 are dispatched from. I cannot believe some of the crap you are sent on. A good one today, someone was actually dispatched to a house in Englewood because the caller said their teenage daughter would not go to school. A woman police acknowleged the call and a bit later came on and said whoever she met at the house wanted a different kind of police. WTF is that? Why would the police even respond to that? It is insane there and I was happy you people were dealing with that and I was doing stupid shit in my cubicle on two monitors, bored out of my ghord. Also is it not ironic that our forefathers created our constitution after our fledgling nation delt with heavy handled British rule and today, we use it to protect us from our own heavy handed, federal and lesser governments in this country?
Google the new deputy director at HR, Rose E. Sprinkle (seriously) and you'll see why she got the job. And it ain't cuz of her qualifications.
You know what McCarthy, take your legitimacy bullshit and stuff it up your drunk, lying Irish ass. Motherfucker.
Walter Green is right.
Any of you techies out there. Please add Chicago's newly minted HIGH murder rate to wickpedia. Lets let the world know that in obamica, Chicago is #1 for murder

Val Warner on the Chicago TV show Windy City Live said Wednesday morning, "There's a homocide everyday in Chicago." matter of factly.

Haha. Too funny. Too bad you're a fucking liar and too much of a coward to sign your name. It didn't go down anywhere near that way and you know it. Man up and tell the truth Officer J.K. # 19265 (012/013). You know what you said and how you said it. If youre a big enough boy to know how to use an automated ticket machine, you should be able to figure out how to write your own IBond. Does the line "I don't know how to do that, I called earlier and they said you guys would write it for me" sound familiar? Most guys with 16 years on know how things work and how to write a I-Bond. Most guys with 3 years on know how to do that. Your entire post is fiction. Stop by anytime you'd like to discuss your bullshit sob story for the SCC readers with this "jagoff wannabe desk sgt".

Burge is a piece of shit and I'm a white copper.why don't you do what he did and have somebody tape it and show it to the feds you idiot.
1/10/2013 06:10:00 AM
You are a first-class asshole.
Whites under the age of 30 had the lowest opinion of the police.
Does that confirm what you already knew?
1/10/2013 12:25:00 PM
Not the original poster, but I have to say "yes". You see, this is the problem with our Nation. Our children have grown up with a false sense of their own self worth. Everybody get a trophy. Does that sound familiar?
Add the liberal agenda being pushed at every University to the mix, and we now have an entire Nation asking 'not what they can do for their Country, but what their Country can do for them'. We are in trouble.
Who will be OUR Abe Lincoln? Who will try to heal these wounds and unite us? Certainly won't be the current Divider in Chief.
Then why are we doing legitamacy training??
Why do you put Burge in the same category as Abbate? Burge was the victim of a group of radicals who trumped up charges against him and his men. Not disgraced in my book.

They are very heavy handed with their censoring.
They have NO sense of humor.
I get the feeling that it is run by little bleeding heart yuppies who are CLUELESS about life, serving people who want to move into a neighborhood and have it instantly transformed into the gold coast.
You know, those kind of people that think the world did not exist until they filled their first diaper.
My opinion.

I wanna see the demographic variances between the 80+% that were "somewhat satisifed" or "very satisfied" with us versus the 19+% that opined otherwise.
Just to confirm what I already know.

Uh, wrong. Whites (specifically males) under the age of 30 were most often stopped whether for traffic or otherwise. Our friends that populate the ghettos and "barrios" were the harshest critics of us.
Reading is a valuable skill. Learn it or forever be a fool.

He should be more like you and tell it like it is when he sees it, right? Because you're probably one of those guys that tells bosses off all the time, right? Because that helps your career in this corrupt city department, right? You sound like you're full of shit.

Why didn't he do it before he retired. Takes alot of balls to do it AFTER you retire or did he just find this out
Cake and coffee would not have been appropriate for Walter Green's goodbye party. Where were the puddin' pops?
"...I am a civilian who lives on the Gold Coast..."
I am bored already. Is Obama your savior?
Don't you have to arrest someone to ask for an I-bond.
I would never even consider that.
My pink handcuffs stay in their holder, cutie.
Now, kees me you fool!!!!
