CAPS Finds (another) Purpose (UPDATE)
A new strategy!!! Someone find us a trumpet so we can announce this properly:
That's better - all new strategies ought to have a trumpet.
Anyway, here we go again (if the link doesn't work, it's Department Notice 13-05)
Anyway, here we go again (if the link doesn't work, it's Department Notice 13-05)
- This directive:
A. introduces the pilot program “Campaign to Break the Code of Silence Drop Box Initiative” (DBI).
B. establishes procedures for collecting and distributing information received through the DBI.
C. introduces the:
1.Campaign to Break the Code of Silence Drop Box Initiative cards (CPD-21.236).
NOTE: The CPD number will not be imprinted on the Campaign to Break the Code of Silence Drop Box Initiative cards.
2.Campaign to Break the Code of Silence Drop Box Initiative Daily Log sheet (CPD-21.237).
3.Campaign to Break the Code of Silence Drop Box Monthly Report (CPD-21.238
4.Campaign to Break the Code of Silence Drop Box Initiative Transmittal (CPD-21.239).
That's an awful lot of new paperwork and forms for a new strategy. And the key to the whole thing?
- The Chicago Alternative Policing Strategy (CAPS) Division will administer the DBI.
Yup - CAPS is back and in a big way. They are to be responsible for the "Drop Boxes," placement of same, daily inspection of the boxes and reporting any tampering/damage of the boxes. Anonymous paper postcards dropped off in a box placed in the Violence Zones where you can't sneeze without getting snot on a a VRI copper.
Just how they did it in New York, right?
UPDATE: A bunch of people keep asking if this is some sort of joke. It isn't. We included the link directly to the order in the second line right under the turmpet video. Click it.

I think the other name for a drop box is TOILET.
Modeled after a suggestion box I bet. I'm sure they will be filled with useful ideas/tips. End sarcasm.
will be filled with empty dime bags w/ trace cannabis bits
I'd say 'please tell me this is a joke' but it's SO stupid, it has to be real.
I'd hate to be the one emptying those boxes (for the short time they exist). Hint: wear rubber gloves, at the very least.
SCC, you know you downloaded the entire sound effect file, right? I especially like the 'fantasy magical sound', but the 'hawk' sound is annoying.
Geez...where to begin on this one?!
At first, I thought they were gonna put these in the station so other coppers could "break the code of silence" at work.
Wait til they rip these things down and destroy them.
Or fill them with god knows what.
Or stake them out to see who uses them, and then shoot those people (it could happen, yeah, it could!)
what ever happened to the "cross the street" flags?
All boxes and cards purchased from Vanecko Paper and Box Supply Co.
Wait til the cards all say "Po-lices can go fuck themselves!"
What's worse, the person(s) that came up with this idea, or the person(s) that approved it? We are truly the laughingstock of the nation.

uh, no need of a reminder to approach all boxes as if they contain some form of toxic waste, right?
The brass section of the Chicago Symphony gets paid too much, and this outfit does things on the cheap. How about this instead?

What the hell...
What gives anyone the idea that the "target population" can even recognize the proffered object, attaching to it the name of a "card?"
"Box?" "Drop box?"
Say what?
Can't run away with it or smash it up or hide behind it, well...
It doesn't register.
Sorry.
OT
It all makes so much sense now, doesn't it....
"Chicago energy drink ban: "
{...}..."Ald. Edward Burke, 14th, has proposed banning drinks with at least 180 milligrams of caffeine that also include taurine, an amino acid, or guarana, an Amazonian plant that contains caffeine. But like many an attention-drawing Burke proposal, it led to no vote — only an agreement for further discussion — even as it provided work for well-connected lobbyists, attorneys and consultants."

A few days later...

Hey caffeine addicts: Your morning just got a little easier.
Next month, Wrigley will start selling a caffeinated gum with the equivalent of about half a cup of coffee.
Alert Energy Caffeine Gum, Wrigley's effort to tap into the growing market for energy drinks, will be sold in convenience stores and food and drug retailers. It's not the first caffeinated chewing gum, but it'll be the first with Wrigley's brand and marketing strength behind it. No other caffeine gum has wide distribution.
The gum comes in packs of eight, is sugar free, and will be available in fruit or mint flavors. At $2.99, it's pricier than most gums, but cheaper than an energy drink or Starbucks
http://money.cnn.com/2013/03/08/news/companies/wrigley-caffeine-gum/?cnn=yes&hpt=hp_t3
What is that about .36 cents per stick of gum?
While it looks great on paper.
Why would anyone risk being seen by one of these boxes, when a phone call from a pay phone is anonymous, and faster and could be toll free.
The fact of the matter is they are scared or don't care to call.
Even if they get a few thousand
they might not live to spend it.
You gotta be fuckin' kidding.
Dat be da snitch box
OT:
THE NEW FOOD-STAMP CASELOAD REPORT IS HERE:
This was released on March 8, 2013 and is the latest stats avail. It covers the data as of Dec 2012.
AND GUESS WHAT?
For the month of Dec 2012 the State of Illinois added roughly yet another 37,700 people to the program!!
HOW BOUT THOSE JAY-OH-BEES that the mayor and governor are creating huh?!
As of Dec 2011 Illinois Food Stamp caseloads were 2,051,286 people. In Nov 2011 we had 2,012,520. That's a 1.9% increase month over month.
Compared to last year when the caseloads stood at 1,879,585 that's a 9.1% increase in poverty!
(as the economy continues to recover as they say ha-ha-ha)
From Dec 2011 until Dec 2012 Illinois put 171,701 people on food stamps.
GUESS WHAT ELSE?
When it comes to Non Farm payroll jobs the BLS reported Illinois had
5.676 million in Dec 2011 and 5.7179 million in Dec 2012.
Illinois created 41,900 Non Farm Payroll jobs over 2012 and therefore put four times as many people on Food Stamps!
Food stamps and poverty is growing faster than Illinois jobs.
Think about that the next time the Mayor and Governor put out their propaganda on jobs creation.
Why should any of you care? Whelp, where's the taxpayers to fund this hell hole operation. I wouldn't run out and blow that big O/T check if I were you.
HAHAHAHAHAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHA!
*Cough-cough... Ahem....*
BUWAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
*Bulge-eyed heralds in too tight, two tone breeches (brown & yellow) frantically yelling into parchment scrolls every 10 minutes, 24/7 from the twin towers of bullshit that are HQ and City Hall.
These New Yuckers runnning the show are hell bent on PROVING ONCE AND FOR ALL to the law enforcement "rubes" at CPD, that they, the New Yuckers have been touched by Almighty God with law enforcement knowledge. Just like Michelangelo's Sistine Chapel painting of God touching Adam.

The smart people in charge have no answers after thoroughly out-smarting themselves.
The only ones forced to remotely give a high-flying fuck are the ones out here on THIS side of law and some semblance of order.
Scudder and The Skull Men have been given this city in it's entirety.
NOBODY in ANY high ranking position will admit that the Civil War against The Police has emboldened Scudder and The Skull Men and allows them to move and operate in this city with resolved fearlessness and the power of purposeful ass-kickery that was FORMERLY the exclusive domain of THE PATROLMEN...
Yeah... The Police are the ones who are really out of control, aren't they?
This "not so new" strategy is yet another way to render CPD ineffective by walking it to a crawl to bury it under meaningless "make work" so the bean counters can have more beans to count.
This shit is silly in the extreme.
Re-inventing Policing by killing even more trees...
We're already seeing people in the formerly safe, high rent showcase areas of this city being home invaded and carried away on their backs kicking and screaming.
The fun REALLY begins when somebody close to Rahm's or Daley's inner circle is finally buggered and cannibalized under one of those downtown surveillance cameras...
I forsee every "Snitch Box" in 011 receiving cards that simply state "T/S" deposited on a daily basis.
But that wouldn't be "Breaking a Code of Silence".
That'd be "Reiterating the Obvious".

yes caps does the paper when these stupid boxes are damaged. sounds good and stupid.
The new "suggestion" box
I imagine if you add the cost of drop boxes, Department of Drop Box Maintance staff to clean out the crap you're going to find in DB's and maintain them, the heat-seal envelopes, carbonless (insert form acronym name) paper, cost of storage, shelving, cabinets, staplers, paper clips pens, and paper shufflers necessary to store more forms upon forms, this "Directive" will essentially evolve in to more non-policing "make work" and you'll piss away more money that could be used to shore-up the pension, buy some brake pads for a few police cars, perhaps buy more cars, or keep a cop on the street.
The time to fill out and perfect all this mumbo jumbo paperwork may boost city paper recycling revenue but it's another paperwork requirement that has got to be turning that part of REAL police work in to, or close to, a full-time job, just rediculous.
If I was a cop, I'd make a Department Directive Betterment Request (DDBR). If there is already a "DDBR", it would be called a "DDBR.1" and if that acronym is already taken it would be called a "110276ZDBR" or what ever it takes to add another acronym to the "CPDADR" or "ADR" for short (Chicago Police Department Acronym Database Registry).
Anyway my DDBR would be the elimination of all paperwork that is NOT related to REAL policing and to significantly streamline and reduce the paperwork that is.
I promise to stop by any and all of these boxes that wind up in my district to deposit all of my paper recyclables. And whatever other crap is rolling around the floor of my squad car.
I give it a month before most of these things are vandalized, filled with dog shit or set afire. And that's just by the coppers in the districts.
Seriously, who the fuck comes up with these ideas? This type of useless shit had to come out of the same box as the Crystal Ball Unit.
File this under "FAIL" before the first "Code of Silence" card gets dropped thru the slot.
As all as McGigalo is worried about is the ladys-he blushes up and stutters like his twin Cliff Claven.
Can I be the Sgt in charge of the Drop Boxes, Please. I'll have to call my CHINAMAN. Or should I say as the New Yorkers say my RABBI.
How about " SNITCH BOX "
What a maroon..... The Three Stooges couldn't have come up with anything better.
Snitch box initiative
Pease tell me how many of those boxes will be placed on the NW Side? More of my tax dollars going down the drain.
OMG!!!!!!! I seriously thought the post was a joke and it's for REAL?
There ought to be some doozies dropped in these things. I give them a life of about 30 seconds.
This department is like a bad cartoon.
Somebody notify Leno, quick!
You forgot one thing SCC:
The drop boxes will be manufactured and maintained by the Vanecko Drop Box Company.
Wow, this ought to generate a lot of useless information. Maybe a turd or two will be deposited as well!
Will there be a Drop Box for reporting on Alderman/ Judge/ State Representative corruption?
We are the silliest police ever!!!
WTF are talking about? Code of silence is another media fabrication.
They just make up BS and the low information public swallows the kool-aid.
I don't think I want to get near some of the stuff people will drop on that box.
Did I miss something here...Just where are these boxes going to be put up at....
That's four (4) spanking brand new CPD forms.
CAPS will now, if not already, recruit/reassign at least four (4) additional dollies to staff the front office, though six (6) would be ideal to allow for time off, medical, and day off rotation.
Gonna need a lieutenant, another merit sergeant too.
I see at least "200" spots being filled before this post makes it on line.
Somebody call Office Depot, more swivel chairs are needed.
thank heavens...something for CAPS to do...gotta justfy the salaries of Moy and Holt
Just a hunch, but I don't see these "drop boxes" staying intact for too long once they are put in these areas. But I guess the brain trusts with the gold stars know better.
Well I guess the stake wasn't pounded deep enough! Somebody must have whispered into McIgotnothins' ear, "Hey Boss, Ya know the CAPS program had the word Strategy in it. If we can think of somethin' REALLY stupid for them to do we could hide all our cloutlings again and pretend we got some brains. I got it Boss! SUGGESTION BOXES!! All over the city! Ya know, only we call 'em "Snitch Boxes"! The cloutlings can handle those, right? And then we'll get hunnerds and hunnerds of scraps of paper tellin' us where the bad guys an' guns are. Ain't that Brilliant Boss! I mean Boss, what could go wrong?!
This is just so embarrassing. In so many ways.
Get this...this goes under the 'Can You Fucking Believe This File?".........Pandalis 'Peter' Liatos, a PE teacher at Lane (and called "The Dancer' because he teaches dancing, has never done any extra-curricular activities at Lane, and is one the "Lazy Lane 11" PE Teachers) was given a Warning Resolution from Lane's Principal Chris Dignam.
http://www.cps.edu/About_CPS/The_Board_of_Education/Documents/BoardActions/2013_02/13-0227-EX16.pdf
The 'Warning Resolution' is the first step closer to a CPS teacher/administrator getting fired. (It's believed a CPS teacher or administrator gets two warnings aka warning resolutions. On the third time, you have a hearing to be fired)...anyways...
This guy Liatos was caught having his student(s) do his lesson plans because he's a functional Illiterate iand doesn't know how to use a computer..Liatos salary in 2012 = $80,845 for (5) classes/day
Liatos, who has 24 years of experience and a B. A. degree, came to Lane through two connections (George Mazarakos -Former Principal, Lane Tech and George Stavrakas, Sr. - Lane's current Boys Head Baseball Coach ) at a Northside Greek Church connection (St. Demetrius). And, Liatos has been at Lane since 1998.

When does mcgoof get all the money to waste? The city cannot put into pension funds but can put millions into fAiling programs! Whenever rahm wants money millions billions he goes into more hidden funds! This city is flush with cash e except for police!
I'm retired 9 years and getting a little long in the tooth. This is a joke, right?
Scc? Can you start a thread on Retro checks? I hear we are not getting one then I hear from FOP that I should not believe the rumors. What is the truth? Why do we not have a clear answer on this from FOP?
The new boxes certainly will keep IAD and the State crime lab busy looking for fingerprints and DNA on the CRs generated. UP THE REBELS.
What a fucking joke this department has become. Don't they realize that the drug dealers will give false information? Making CPD chase after false leads. I guess the brain trust doesn't think these things through.
I suggest putting the snitch boxes directly under the police cameras.
"The Call to Post"...
..."AND THEY'RE OFF!"
When's rhe last time you heard the voice of someone like Phil Georgeff calling, "Here they come, spinning out of the turn!"
Maybe what we need is a drum roll and cymbals crash. Cue the snake charmer music and dancing girls.

Oh, shut up. Go put some paper in the Xerox machine and clean the Mr. Coffee.
All boxes and cards purchased from Vanecko Paper and Box Supply Co.
Will you get over it already. Your sarcasm died about 6 months ago. Find a new line!
And where could a good citizen pick up these forms? Will they be handed out by funeral directors at the service? At church on Sunday? By bartenders at Blue Monday Parties? (Old timers will remember those) Where oh where can my snitch form be ???
will a hazmat team be responsible for opening up these boxes and collecting the wealth of information they are sure to hold--- will this mean more inside spots for caps princes and princesses---
Who's cousin got the contracts for this nonsense?
Clout insiders have to find something to do.
The best start in NHL history is over. The Chicago Blackhawks finally left the ice without a point -- but with their heads held high.
The Blackhawks were stunned 6-2 by the struggling Colorado Avalanche on Friday night. It was their first loss in regulation and ended a remarkable run in which they earned at least one point in their first 24 games, an NHL record.
WHOA.....they have to be handicapped accessible per Dept. GO and comply with ADA standards states the CAPS liason to the LGTV community...and she's a Lt.! PUSH and ACLU have already obtained emergency Federal restraining order per Law dept. City to settle for two million to be distributed to wheelchair bound LGTV "victims" at office of Loevy and Loevy. Supt. McGoofy calls the settlement amount a decrease in the increase of wasted money. Finkl steel is planning suit for cancellation of boxes already manufactured. Alderman Burke gets tough and recommends firm to modify Postal drop Boxes. Cesefire begins new campaign for citizens to obtain armed escort when mail arrives in hood. When will it end?

Rahm & McOuttaIdeas are laughing their asses off.
Policing in this town has been utterly and intentionally destroyed.
SMHATS...
Cross referenced on THEE RANT:
CLICK ON "SNITCH BOXES"
This a joke, right?
This cannot be a real order, about a real program.
"Drop Boxes," placement of same, daily inspection of the boxes and reporting any tampering/damage of the boxes..."
Just the thing for our urban-moonscape areas.
Apparently barren, deserted, but always with movement at the corner of your eye, constant activity under porches and around corners and down alleys.
Hard-packed dirt, broken glass, blowing litter, and dog shit, with every available surface marked up, picked at, and urinated on, every window boarded and barred and bricked up, every door fitted with a desperate succession of fifteen different bolts and bars and locks and chains and covered with sheet metal which is dished in from the insane scratching and clawing and pounding of some unseen animal...
"Daily inspection of the boxes" as the streetlights are shut off and the world rotates toward its end.
A lot of the worst "target population" for these "cards" has been "relocated" from "inhumane housing projects," and is busily chopping up 14-year-old girls, burglarizing gun stores, and -- although "disenfranchised" and "disrespected" and "unskilled" and "unemployable" -- is cleverly rigging pumps and drums inside vans to suck hundreds of gallons of gasoline out of service station pumps in suburbs thirty miles out...
When the medical section calls me for a drop can I just go to the closest drop box and deposit it there?
Pursuant to section VI-A...
Who the fuck are these "stakeholders" supposed to be?
The local Skull Men?
The local rev'run?
The local aldercritter?
The local memorial tee shirt maker?
The local marchers & bullhorn shouters?
The local chapter of (Hah! Gotcho Money!) Ceasefire?
How much money is being allocated for this insanity aside from the $1 Million criminal enterprise seed money Rahm gifted to Ceasefire?
Pure donkey-dung...
if it was not so sad it would be funny
not a cop
"A. introduces the pilot program “Campaign to Break the Code of Silence Drop Box Initiative” (DBI)."
If "A" had to work for its money, if "A" had to actually get out there and walk the route doing the "daily inspections and reports" it thought up, you never would have heard a thing here, and everyone knows it.
...and everyone also knows that "Code Of Silence" is taken already; a media pejorative used against police. We talkin ghetto "No Snitchin" here.
"DBI."
Is it possible that "A" actually thinks it actually did some kind of work, actually accomplished anything useful?
If so, I have even less respect for "A" than I would if it came straight out and told us to our face that it was generating this bullshit just to keep its fancy-sounding job and fill in the day towards the next paycheck.
That I could understand.
HAIL TO THE ALMIGHTY KING -- THE CHICAGO ROYAL FAMILY HAS SPOKEN!
The snitch boxes will be installed and maintained by who exactly: the connected red light camera outfit or the connected parking meter outfit under a 99 year contract?
Oh that's right...mayor transparency doesn't negotiate these things in public so we can't tell you.
Shhh shut your mouth and remember the code.
The only thing missing from these political edicts are the phrases "God willing" at the end.
Oh yeah.... and the: "death to the middle class" as the terrorist use the "Death to America" phrase
The caps goof made this crap up so they can have squad cars assigned to them!
Just like those domestic officer who help all the beat down women, YEAH RIGHT.
Face book,instagram, smart phones, wifi, and emails.
And Mc dumb-ass want to use a box and pieces of paper in the hood brilliant.
Oh how I wish this was a joke. Then again this department has become one big joke with 2 psychopathic liars, Rahm and McFailure, at the helm.
All these two clowns are concerned with is pandering to the Link and SSI abusing crowd.
Garry's "Snitch Boxes" are now on Thee Rant. This clown is desperate.
Funny sh-t.
OT tours mof white house closed to tourists that traveled and spent money to go to dc , but guess what sheeples $2,3 billion is still being spent on free cell phones , these free cell phone are given to folks that receive food stamps , housing , utilities subsidies.
wake up america
USA is being run by socialists , no tax hike for those earning under $250K look at your pay check since Jan 1 , 2013 , it went down by 2% in social security payment , cigarette tax , real estate tax , gas prices all up . gas up ove 80 cents a gal since jan . we were bent over and vsiline was taken away by the democrats . now they want to charge extra fees to own a gun , that's for the law abiding citizens , not the gangs that deal drugs and vote democratic .
Excuse me guy's , but is this some kind of "snitch box"?? WTF is going on with this dept. All I can say is this is so juvenile that it's an embarrasment to any CPD Officer working today.I feel sorry for you guy's having to work with such idiots {in charge} of this once great Dept.Good luck keep your head down and keep your enemies close.
Can i drop my fop newsletter in the box because i don't know what else to do with it
Whats up with the house mouse JA from Area 1 getting stripped for medical abuse?
This appears to be a McCarthy hybrid version of a December, 2009 DOJ report in which over 100 participants (law enforcement "executives", academics, clerics, prosecutors, "community activists", etc.), under the aegis of the Police Executive Research Forum (PERF), issued a 64-page white paper entitled "THE STOP SNITCHING PHENOMENON: Breaking the Code of Silence"
No members of the CPD participated. There is no mention of McCarthy's "drop box" idea in the report. Essentially, the emphasis was on receiving anonymous tips via phone hotlines.
Desperate times call for desperate (and often harebrained) measures.
Imagine a homicide victim found lying next to a "snitch box" after a drive-by shooting by person(s) unknown.
Love the sound effects, although I thought it was time for the post parade (call to the post). The Sport of Kings enthusiasts will know what I am talking about.
I'm retired 9 years and getting a little long in the tooth. This is a joke, right?
3/09/2013 09:37:00 AM
Well, as in most all things CPD, if it's a joke, it's on us.
Let me tell you how happy I am cause I just retired!
These boxes will be filled with used condoms, needles, chip bags etc. Everything but what they're intended for.
Lets see how this plays out. The city and the state in financial toilet, and someone, some moron thought this one up.
How's this gonna look like on paper.
60K for the truck and graphics on it.
1-driver, drive the van
1- Supervisor, for the laborers
2-laborers, intall the DBI
1-Sheetmetal workers, make the DBI
1-locksmith, make sure what goes in stays in.
1-NO Bid contract.
2-man squad car to keep an eye on the truck when the city workers are intalling the DBI
I am glad I am retireing. Most of this shit is embarrassing.
What about just taking the streets back?
I'm on the "Drop Box" reading this now.
Check out Thee Rant. LMFAO! I need a new dry keyboard. Those NYPD cops are hilarious.
Hey SCC, WBBM-AM radio sourced you for this story! "According to the Second City Cop Blog....." They also used some of the posts as "Reader Opinion". SCC - Chicago's Freshest News Source
First of all, this is what happens when you take an absolute abysmal failure of an exempt - Moy, who has repeatedly proven her gross incompetence as a law enforcement manager, let alone leader - and dumped them without demoting them. Commander of a district to commander of CAPS is not a dump, it's a lateral move. And this human failure continues to believe she has what it takes - witness this ludicrous program.
Second, if I were an enterprising gang leader, here's what I'd do, CAPS brainiacs: I'd have every motherfucker I know - gangsters, friends, baby's mamas - writing out wholly plausible but totally bogus tips and filling these boxes. You'll have cops chasing down bogus leads and wasting time that would otherwise be spent on legit investigations.
Isn't there a crime hotline for this kind of stuff? Why don't we include a suggestion boss too? If I see one I'm going to stuff all kinds of stuff in there.
How about the bad guys throwing notes in to throw off investigators?
This might have worked in the 20's.
It really should be on a cartoon or on late night.
Lets do the democratic thing, pay them to break the silence, I mean we pay them to do everything else. Like taking care of their kids, etc
These snitch boxes are gonna be target rich environments for the shitheads.

They can strip you for medical abuse? Half the financial crimes unit is on medical!
I wish I was in CAPS because I'd save all of the little nuggets for a book.
The real Code of Silence is the one practiced by the ultra corrupt Crook County, Illinois Democrat Political Crime Family.
I just read the order and I am speechless. There are no words to describe this idiocy.
I am sure there is going to have to be a report generated for each of these "tips".

Good Grief Charlie Brown!
We're Doomed!
There is an addendum being printed as we speak. Upon dropping the form into the snitch box, a mechanism will trip the latch and handful of warm cashews will pour out. All of the snitch boxes will be installed at liquor stores.
check this http://illinoisreview.typepad.com/illinoisreview/2013/03/kelly-rahms-3-million-anti-violence-program-backfiring.html
If the info in the boxes is read and must be followed up with, I. Will be placing reports of all city and mayorial clout violations in these boxes! Let's look on the bright side... Expose currouption or they will see the response and pull the program!
I'm not a cop, but I'm not the person that posts and ends it with "not a cop"
Full of chewed paper, rat shit and a dead rat...
The dept's code of silence is alive and well. Silence is promoted under the table and heaven help the uninformed that aspires to bring out watse and corruption in our ranks. Snitcher beware!
And exactly how much will these 'drop boxes' cost the tax payer and who will be getting the contract for installation and sale of these boxes?
Snitch box, I love it!

UPDATE: Number Of U.S. Gun Makers Refusing Sales To Gov't In 'Firearms Equality Movement' Triples In Two Weeks
In just two weeks, the number of companies participating in what has been named the "Firearms Equality Movement," has more than tripled from 34 companies to 118.
Wilson Combat, a custom pistol manufacturer located in Berryville, Arkansas, joined the movement on February 28 stating the following:
"Wilson Combat will no longer provide any products or services to any State Government imposing legislation that infringes on the second amendment rights of its law abiding citizens. This includes any Law Enforcement Department, Law Enforcement Officers, or any State Government Entity or Employee of such an entity.

Wilson lists the states included on its no sale policy as: California, Hawaii, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Washington D.C. and The City of Chicago, Illinois.
Caps is dead!! The department is scrambling to save their grant money for this program. WE DON'T HAVE THE MAN POWER OR TIME TO IMPLEMENT THE GOALS OF THIS PROGRAM!!!!
Man with knife robs Northwest Side storefronts
6:45 p.m. CST, March 9, 2013
"The same man is suspected of robbing at least four storefront businesses on the Northwest Side this week, including two within 15 minutes.
"During the robberies, the man entered the business and approached a cashier before displaying a knife, taking cash and fleeing, police said Saturday in a business alert.
"The same man is suspected in at least four robberies:
-- On March 3 at about 10 p.m. on the 5300 block of North Milwaukee Avenue.
-- On March 7 at about 4:50 p.m. on the 5200 block of North Milwaukee Avenue.
-- Also on March 7 at about 5:05 p.m. on the 4900 block of West Irving Park Road.
-- On March 8 at about 11 p.m. on the 4300 block of North Central Avenue.
"The alert describes the robber as white, about 20-30 years old, 5-foot-7 to 5-foot-10 and 170-180 pounds, with a medium complexion. He was wearing a black jacket or black hooded sweatshirt, blue jeans and gym shoes.
"Anyone with information is asked to call Area North detectives at 312-744-8263."

They are digital-spraying "RAHM EMANUEL RAHM EMANUEL RAHM EMANUEL" all over Meals On Wheels trucks too.
I seem to recall Emanuel saying that he wouldn't do this, it was wasteful of money.
Bad as Cicero -- "Larry Dominick" all over everything.
How many lit matches do you think will be put inside?
NYPD nailed it. The Dear Gerry box.
I think it's a great idea if people take advantage of it.
And here I thought the code of silence was Ade and Bilotta not returning any phone calls or going to any of the retirees meetings the last four weeks. Are you two manly men going to show up to the South Side Parade Sunday or are you two going to make up some ballots for the Sergeants that did not return them?
YOUR SILENCE IS DEAFING!
O-M-G
This has got to be one of the stupidest things to come out of HQ and I go back to the days of using a Call Box Key (which I still have and know of places to use it) and when PO-5-1313 made way for 9-1-1.
Think about it, we are in the days of the INTERNET, TEXTING and FREE CELL PHONES but how many of these street rats can put together an understandable written sentence.
I would think that any of these boxes would be watched by gangbangers and anyone who would drop a note would be watched, grabbed and beaten. Anyone with real information knows enough to pick up a phone and dial 9-1-1.
Worst case, far fetched as it may be could one or more of these boxes could be booby trapped with an IED.
Stay safe, there are 50 members of the Irish Garda visiting next week for the St. Patrick Day Celebrations. We told them to bring a large gunny sack and take McCarthy back with them.
Just imagine, once these boxes start becoming vandalized you can be sure that the powers that be will create yet another mission for the beat cars. Each beat car will be expected to check on the boxes on their beat and drop paper when they find they have been messed with.
My young son came up to me and told me his little sister-3 yrs old-hit him. Told him to put it in the snitch box.
Just another step closer to communism, ask any Cuban ex-pat.

Wow! Did the Chicago Tribune publish the race of the offender? Of course, because he's white. Any other race, it would have been omitted.
OT: Our lovely JJ, what a Piece of shit!
"More than two dozen world leaders bid farewell Friday to the late Hugo Chavez at a lengthy, emotional funeral where the Rev. Jesse Jackson portrayed the Venezuelan president as a hero of the poor, while pushing for the nation’s rapprochement with the United States."
I'll Drop Box your ass. I could nt come up with a stupid street line. This is a start. Anyone anyone

Whats up with the house mouse JA from Area 1 getting stripped for medical abuse? .................It's been known for a while, now something must finally be getting done and becoming official. Who's gonna replace his 2 hr shifts and made up position?
Whats up with the house mouse JA from Area 1 getting stripped for medical abuse?
Come on, never happened . I can't believe my eyes. They are actually going to follow through on something that's been known for months. I have no sympathy for people caught abusing the medical. This individual is a disgrace anyway.
There is something amiss in a city that has officially designated "Violence Zones" -- but no matter.
I would suggest the same sort of large, illuminated archways, decorative markers, etc. that have proliferated on street corners to designate "neighborhoods."
"VIOLENCE ZONE."
Thought the caps people were gonna be used to cover school crossing. Guess they came up with this idea so they didnt have to stand in the cold. Can i get a paper car here squad for criminal damage to city property. Wtf
What happend to the "Text to Tip" program?
Isn't that a lot simpler...what about anonymous phone calls to 911 or the desk, or the CAPS office?
What about calling the Alderman's office who then relays info to CPD?
This is another EPIC FAIL!!!
All boxes and cards purchased from Vanecko Paper and Box Supply Co.
Will you get over it already. Your sarcasm died about 6 months ago. Find a new line!
Nah, I still like it. If you don't, then don't read it.

define 'take advantage of it'
This is as funny as the three stooges episode when larry steals an ice cream truck with the huge loud speakers in top that plays “pop goes the weasel“ so curley can win the fight and drives it thru the wall!!! Lmfao

Well, if someone at the first store had a gun and was willing to use it, that would've been the end of it and this asshole's crime spree.
They forgot to put in the order that CAPS people will be equipped with hazmat suits to wear when emptying these boxes.
This is so truly embarrassing.
This CAPS shit is like a bad cancer!
It just won't go away!
This CAPS program is soo stoopid!

That's four (4) spanking brand new CPD forms.
CAPS will now, if not already, recruit/reassign at least four (4) additional dollies to staff the front office, though six (6) would be ideal to allow for time off, medical, and day off rotation.
Gonna need a lieutenant, another merit sergeant too.
I see at least "200" spots being filled before this post makes it on line.
Somebody call Office Depot, more swivel chairs are needed.

Hey goof ... the CAPS officers do more in an hour than you do in a year. They should put more people in CAPS. Maybe then some work would get done!

I like this idea. "WARNING! Due to limited budgeted resources and the prevailing absence of a family structure, this area has been designated a Violence Zone. Enter at your own risk."
BBBWWWAAA!!!! I spilled my coffee! THANKS SCC! LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!

Scc? Can you start a thread on Retro checks? I hear we are not getting one then I hear from FOP that I should not believe the rumors. What is the truth?
Man, you are fucking stupid.
Stolen from THREE RANT but it is funny:
And Tyquan, who thinks Rasheed is probin' the booty of his beloved Makeesha but doesn't want to spend his weed money on more ammo, just spreads it to the right people that Rasheed has been spending a lot of time by the Snitch Box...
We serve and correct says:
Everything submitted in these boxes must be in the correct to-from format and grammatically perfect.

You have alot of nerve posting that BS
We all know about the fine officers that "work" in most Caps offices so shut up and keep pretending that you DO deserve to be paid for hiding out and doing no real police work!!!!!!

This appears to be the mayor's office trying to get the troops riled up to support a bad contract offer that includes retro pay but screws us on everything else.
They can take that pittance "retro-pay" and jam it.
This isn't the Sgt's union, Mr. Mayor.
