Reilly Wants More Cops

  • Alderman Brendan Reilly wants help to protect the marquee Chicago neighborhood he serves as a legislator from wild teens.
    Reilly, who's 42nd Ward encompasses the Magnificent Mile where hundreds of teens ran roughshod on Saturday night harrassing subway riders and making shoppers and tourists uncomfortable, said in a statement Monday that he wants a meeting with Police Superintendant Garry McCarthy to discuss future precautions.
Made shoppers and tourists "uncomfortable?" What kind of bullshit is that? Oh, he must have read the media reports that said no one was injured or robbed. Of course, the other conflicting reports about two women being beaten with a padlock-in-a-sock and relieved of at least one of their purses give lie to that entire statement, though certain media outlets are still pushing it. And Rahm's people are evidently keen students of the "no victim, no crime" philosophy - if the ladies didn't get treated by an ambulance or a doctor, then they weren't injured.

Oh yeah, and a Mounted Officer was assaulted according to the Community Activist interviewed by all the major networks - that doesn't count?

An interesting set of comments in some posts yesterday:
  • Starting friday vri north will take 100 officers by van from 011, and drop them off downtown. The vans will then return at 0200 to pick up the officers. Officers must be on foot for the entire tour, except for lunch.
And a reply:
  • The Revrun cartel told Emanuel in no uncertain terms that they expect ZERO resources diverted to downtown or areas inhabited by white people.
Yesterday being April Fool's Day and all, we can't vouch for either statement, though we would find both unsurprising. We guess we'll see this weekend as temperatures approach 60 degrees again.

    Reminds me of a FAIRY TALE in my youth.

    Long ago a beach was invaded from the southern area of Chicago.

    Nobody knew the cause and hot water and sunlight seem to have infected the nervous system of the strange alien people.

    They craved punching out of towners and using their phones to record images of attacks.

    The city closed the beach and the problem was solved.

    can the city close downtown???

    The real numbers this City needs to be worried about should come from the merchants downtown. My retirement portfolio is up about 20% in the last year and a half, so business should be good downtown, right?

    We have never heard a peep out of the City leaders touting a huge recovery in our City. I wonder why. If the businesses downtown are not making money again, big money, I have to wonder if we are in a City in decline. It certainly looks like it from where I sit.

    Did Mayor Murder take the wheel just as the ship hit the iceberg? Why has that criminal mastermind Daley been so quiet lately? I never thought I would leave this City, but I still have young kids. Every retirement strategy I look at has me out of Chicago.

    ...can this be verified? I'm surprisd by the lack of coverage and outrage on this blog if true. I know it's almost golf season, but where is FOP?
    I don't expect Rahm and his boy to address an assualt on a cop as it doesn't fit their narrative but what about the street cops on scene? Did it happen?

    Quite the dilemma for Tiny Dancer - move resources downtown to protect the prime tourist destination and keep those tourist dollars flowing or keep those same resources on the south and west sides to keep a lid on the gang warfare.

    Since no one in the end cares if a a bunch of gangbangers kill one another, the resources will be beefed up downtown. Oh, and Red Line construction will now take 5 years longer than expected.

    Articles on any "Wilding" incidents always include a lot of concealed carry comments. I am not a cop or lawyer. I am an NRA and ISRA member and plan on being legally armed in the future. I also understand that if I shoot anyone, no matter how justified, my life will turn to shit. Lawyers' fees will bankrupt me and the stress will shorten my life. That said, I will defend my self and family from harm and accept the consequences.

    FUCK THEM.

    You know, I've heard a lot of comments back and forth about Reilly's proposal to have businesses pay ODPO's $30 an hour to aid security. Stuff like that's less than you're paid now; no benefits; no pension contribution; possible no radio; lack of back up; no indemnification; etc, etc.

    All valid points to be sure, but they blew right past the threshold issue of "should we be doing this in the first place?"

    Right now, Mayor Murder and Supt Mc-Licks-Rahms-Balls can come up with a million bucks a week to send VRI into the hood. Ah yes, da hood. An area which contributes nothing postive, does nothing but take-take-take, into an area in which the po-leece are not even wanted, and yet we pour in milliions and ask them for nothing in return for VRI.

    But the Chicago's crown jewels called the Mag Mile which makes a massive contribution polictially, socially, and financially (sales tax, property tax, etc, etc) to the city and we can not provide THAT area with adequate police resourses??? Gimme a fucking break.

    The alderman is to be recognized for the limited fact that he wanted to find a way to provide this police protection at no cost to an already financially strapped city.

    But the alderman should really get behind the idea that Michigan Ave is already making a MASSIVE tax contribution to the city and is deserving of adequate police protection (whavever that might entail) AT NO EXTRA CHARGE.

    And the police that provide that protection are entitled to full pay and benefits package for the time spent doing so. They are doing full POLICE WORK and therefore deserve full POLICE PAY AND BENEFITS.

    And if the Revruns don't like it, let's just remind them that if the parents and clergy in da hood had done an adequate job of parenting the FIRST PLACE, then we would not be having this discussion.

    Get every Alderman in the city to assemble five 21+ people from their wards (50x5=250). Educated, clean records clean cut, military preferred and assemble them at City Hall. March them into the Mayors Office and demand that he City hire more police we have good people waiting to take the job. Get the most articulate in front of the cameras then take all down to the Department of Personnel to sign up.

    Have the number of police officers we are short for the reporters.

    ======================================
    Good first step, but not far enough.
    1- Allow Conceal Carry
    2- Declare Open Season on Gangs
    3- Issue Hunting Licenses with toe tags ($50 ea). Toe tag= immunity from prosecution.
    4- Authorize a $5 Bounty on any corpse with sagging pants / exposed Boxers.

    The Hunting License fees alone could fully fund the CPD Pension Fund . . .

    Memorial Day week-end.

    Week-end of the last day of school.

    Fourth of July.

    Bud Kill-a-kid.

    First week of school.

    You know.... Since Rahm has placed such a high priority on "sticking it in the cops ear."

    Out of sheer malice, do we hope to live to see the day when it all comes together... The great cosmic fart followed by karma's giggle when the North Shore Shit-Ass realizes that he outsmarted himself into a fucking corner by picking a TOTALLY UNNECESSARY fight with the men and women of CPD.

    We call him by his true name... COWARD.

    We reckon it's easier to pick a fight with people who actually have some decency and are governed by some rules of conduct.

    He sure as shit isn't going to pick a fight with the sources of these wilding mobs running around slapping $17K property tax payers in the eye...

    Hey Rahm! Ceasefire needs some more loot.

    Now will be a very good time to give it to 'em...

    It's getting warm.

    Why not do it? It's apparent you need the catered to constituents more than you need taxpayers.

    After all... Ask any catered to constituent. They'll tell you that the taxpayers of Chicago exist only for the pleasure of the catered to constituent.

    Taxpayers pay the freight but they're outnumbered.

    Heh... Whispers in the halls of power are that people are agog and agape regarding an entire Police Department going deep into survival and self preservation mode.

    All these clown-assed Robert Peel re-incarnates from New Yuck and all these narrow-assed "smarter than you" nitwits from the North Shore/Hyde Park/U of C are sweating...
