Perception Is Not Reality
- Chicago Police Supt. Garry McCarthy reiterated Monday that his department has safety and security under control in the North Michigan Avenue area.
McCarthy spoke to reporters at his weekly news conference held to showcase the amount of illegal guns seized in the city.
- McCarthy says its being blown out of proportion by the media, creating a perception that there's a problem.
"So far to date, there's been no major incidents, but what's getting reported is mayhem, and it's patently false," McCarthy says, claiming there's been no robberies, thefts or property damage.
No robberies? No thefts?
Bartender? We'll have two of what he's having.

I am just so sick of his fucking lies. I wish he would just shut up already. he brings so much discredit to this department.
Bwahahahahhaha!
"McCarthy spoke to reporters at his weekly news conference held to showcase the amount of illegal guns seized in the city."
So if perception is indeed, not reality, how many of those illegal guns came from FOID holders (future CCW licensees)?
Since the answer to that question is likely zero, there's no reason for legislators not to approve a decent CCW law, similar to that of Indiana or Florida.

Whew! Glad to hear everything is fine downtown. Can't wait to bring the wife and kids down for some ice cream.
"Bartender? We'll have two of what he's having."

Uhhmmm, no you won't.
McPathologicalLiar beat you to the bottle - drained it - and is off plinking street lights.
You'll have nothing and like it.
Don't piss on our head and tell us that it's raining!
Here's something else to ponder. Tell me we are not headed down the exact same path.
(youtube) Who Took Down Stocken
As they borrowed and borrowed to "revitalize" downtown with new sports stadiums and new waterfront improvements. They borrowed more.
Borrowed until they went bankrupt. As the bankers made out like bandits.
BTW, Any Chicago politicians have any ties with the bankers? Think about it.
As they went bankrupt the homicide rate soared.. yep we're headed down that same path. They cut basic services, cut wages and then they came for the healtcare and pensions.
Check out the clip. I think that you'll find it informative.
Oh, people getting shot in the head is not a major incident.
This exemplifies how bad things are. The city leaders have become desensitize and the shootings are considered normal behavior and are therefore acceptable.
Fricken idiots.
Well no more Pendaltons got shot so I guess the city is safe now...right? No one else matters.
After Memorial day the whole Michigan ave detail is canceled due to overtime restrictions. If the boss doesn't think there's a problem now wait til the shitheads figure out there's no more police down there. Wow he's in for a real surprise.
Wow! Truly disgraceful that McCarthy would flat out lie to us with a straight face! SCC has been reporting this for years and only now is all this "mayhem" finally being addressed by the city. I'm totally speechless but will say Memorial day week-end is coming up! Hope he prepared for the "Mayhem" coming up on the Lakefront!
"...his weekly news conference held to showcase the amount of illegal guns seized..."
all recovered guns are delivered daily by beat car to human square-business hours only-...no longer "pickedup" and taken via secure transport by dedicated personnel---screw it just down a beat car to help fuel the weekly photo op
What about the 2 Doctors at Northwestern Hospital who were beaten, what about the Doctor who was in town for a conference last year around June 6th, he was a victim of the 'Youth' while standing in daylight in front of the Hancock Building. What about the scary incident at Oak Street Beach??? What about the murder on Van Buren after Taste of Chicago?? Does McCarthy have a forgetful mentality??
"If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?"
"If 20-50 South Side honor students commit a flash rob on North Michigan Ave and no reporters are around to witness it, did it really happen?"
How do you Reduce Crime? ANSWER ...RECLASSIFY IT.
They're still sending 3 tact teams a day down there on weekends, not to mention the bike guys and VRI and PPOs. Yeah we're not down manpower and there's no problem but well send an additional 150 officers per day down there anyway because we can't find anywhere else to utilize them.
I just don't understand why people aren't furious at blatant lies told to them by government officials. You can't take your family downtown safely anymore, but this fool will say that the reports of wildings and robberies are false?
Are people that fucking passive now? Will they be that easily herded into camps with no resistance to these socialist scumbag liars? I see this administration trying to use the enormous powers of intimidation they've granted to themselves against this herd of sheep.
I am the ODPO that defended my son from the Pit Bull attack in 016 last friday afternoon. I took my son out for a bike ride onto the 5800 block of Oketo on his bike. The same block I was brought home to 36 years ago as a baby. I want to say thanks to 016th district for all the support through this difficult time. Ty SCC for the outlet to thank my brothers and sisters. M Kumiga #15998 mike15998@rocketmail.com
Wow, how does the media not just let this dumb ass have it big time?
I stood there for hours up and down that nonsense this past weekend telling countless citizens and tourists what I had to tell them when dozens asked the obvious questions:
"Officer, what's going on?" -
Well, brace yourself, ma'am, I have some harsh realities to relay, but mostly, you can just believe your own eyes.
"Officer, are we in any danger out here today?"
- Well, sir, I think the possibilities are certainly higher than most nice days in some other city where THIS TYPE OF THING IS NOT HAPPENING, wouldn't you say?
"Do you guys really have this under control, there sure are an awful lot of mobs everywhere we go and we don't see enough of you guys..."
-Well, sir, I can tell you what you wanna hear, or I can tell you the truth.
How the fuck is actual footage on all local news stations showing up to 50 possibly more black teenagers running from mounted units on the mag mile exaggeration??
This fucken goof lies about everything !!
For the ones who read this blog who are not In law enforcement .... Take whatever this idiot says and apply the exact opposite that will be the truth.
McSup. always goes back to the anti-gun statements...

Type: Resolution
Title: Call for United States Congress and Illinois Assembly to
pass an assault weapons ban to protect communities
Committee(s) Assignment:
R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, Assault weapons are a class of military-style semi-automatic firearms,
designed and manufactured for the sole purpose of killing many people quickly, and are the
weapon of choice for criminals, enabling them to commit some of our Nation's deadliest crimes;
and
WHEREAS, Tragically, there has been a recent series of shooting rampages in which
innocent bystanders, attendees at movie theaters, gatherers at political events, school children,
and others have been killed by individuals wielding and firing semi-automatic weapons,
including at the Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut and the Century
Movie Theater in Aurora, Colorado; and
WHEREAS, In 1994, the United States Congress, recognizing the threat to public safety
posed by the continued availability of assault weapons, enacted the Federal Assault Weapon
Ban, which banned certain models of assault weapons, as well as high capacity magazines.
During the first nine years of the federal ban, the use of assault weapons in crimes dropped by
66% and the number of murders caused by firearms dropped by 7%. Unfortunately, the
legislation contained a sunset provision, with the ban expiring in 2004, and attempts to reenact
the federal ban have failed; and
WHEREAS, In the absence of legislation from the federal government, seven states,
including California, New York, Massachusetts, New Jersey, Connecticut, Hawaii and Maryland,
attempted to stem the violence by enacting laws banning assault weapons. In addition, the
District of Columbia and five large urban cities, including the City of Chicago, have enacted
local laws banning such weapons; and
WHEREAS, Despite numerous attempts, the State of Illinois has never been able to
muster the political will to enact an assault weapons ban, and a recent attempt in the lame-duck
session ofthe General Assembly again failed to enact such a ban; and
WHEREAS, Even the United States Supreme Court has held that the Second
Amendment's right to bear arms is subject to reasonable restrictions, including a prohibition on
carrying "dangerous and unusual weapons"; and
WHEREAS, The effective regulation of assault weapons and high capacity magazines
requires comprehensive legislation and action on the part of the federal, state and local
government in order to protect our communities and prevent the further loss of innocent lives;
now, therefore,
BE IT RESOLVED, That we, the Mayor and Members of the City Council of the City of
Chicago, assembled this seventeenth day of January, 2013, do hereby urge the United States
Congress and the liiinois General Assembly to pass an assault weapons ban in order to protect
our communities; and
Nothing to see here!
Police say a body found burned and strangled in a Northwest Side trash bin Sunday evening was that of a girl or woman between the ages of 17 and 30.
No it's not reality. Was she on the campaign donations list? No? Well see than it doesn't matter. Crime is down and the cities GDP is growing.
Must be because of CeaseFire group getting that million $$.
Garry McCarthy is a liar and a thief who steals police resources from downtown and taxpaying areas and puts them in the non taxpaying ghetto.
Is this not theft??
No wonder people are LEAVING Chicago.
Complete crap. It was complete mayhem. Never seen anything like it. The city can spin their BS but if this does not stop the city will be lost. No other city has this situation where hundreds of black thugs go running amuck frightening citizens. I live in the area of Chi/Mi Ave and am getting out.
Kool AId= Rham's Happy Too
Do Nothing lEt the Clouted make the Arrests on their weekends off
Baghdad Bob had more credibility.
McCarthy says its being blown out of proportion by the media, creating a perception that there's a problem.*****
Rather than trying to ignore it, why not go on the offensive. Put it out there that the City will not tolerate this kind of behavior. Anyone partaking in this kind of behavior will be locked up.
Why aren't the people outraged ? Because the city
is controled by the mayor, the aldermen, the moneyed interests, and the dope peddlers, and the people can't do a f*cken thing about it. The first line of defense, the Police Dept. is being hamstrung by the mayor and his superintendent when it comes to fighting crime.
Make an arrest or shoot and kill or wound an offender
and the states attorney or a
judge dismisses the charge
or pleads the charge down and the arresting officer is
left open for a lawsuit by the criminal or his survivors and the city leaves him on his own to battle the suit and possibly ruin his career and future. And the no-snitch rule in certain parts
of the city also contributes
to this garbage. The denizens have been taught that any law enforcement persons are their enemy so they suffer their losses in
silence. Despite his faults,
the late Richard J. Daley
backed his Police Department
and provided what they needed to police the city.
This knucklehead mayor we have now is a p*ss-poor excuse for chief executive.
12:41am......I guess they know now!
First, PO Kumiga, as one of your neighbors, good job Officer. You did what needed to do. I'm sorry that this dog was owned by pieces of shit.
Second, why is McInADrunkenFog having a weekly news conference? He mentioned this at the last Compstat, during another one of his anti-gun rants. This guy is a psycho. An incompetent nut job.
Everyone thinks because of the "red line" being shut down that it will be just fine on the mag mile/beach BUT WAIT til the little honor students,piss bums,crackheads and the rest of the shit in this shitty figure it out that it is completely FREE to board the bus and get on the train without paying.
McCarthy says its being blown out of proportion by the media ... "So far to date, there's been no major incidents, but what's getting reported is mayhem, and it's patently false,"
So the bottom line is that in English McCompstat is really saying: 'Who you gonna believe, me, or your lying eyes?' (rotfl)
And not that it matters(/s) but according to the dictionary 'Mayhem' is defined thusly: Law -- 'the crime of willfully inflicting a bodily injury on another so as to make the victim less capable of self-defense or, under modern statutes, so as to cripple or mutilate the victim.'
Okey-dokey then GMAC. So Crippling and Mutilating people, and attacking the defenseless (disabled, seniors, etc) is just fine with you and all that Mayhem stuff is nothing to be concerned about. And in any case -- It's The Media's Fault!.. right? (deyze must beeze ateechin sum funny Law in NY & NJ)
Rahm and McFailure simply plant their heads in the sand and deny everything.
I don't think we've ever had two more out of touch whack jobs in charge.
I wonder if he actually believes his own BS.
Either way, he's a POS.
OT I seen on fox news this morning An officer in full uniform video taping the arrests of the protesters at city hall. Is this now what we have to do to protect ourselves from B.S. lawsuits. Untill the police are able to be the police again this city is going to continue to rot and I am just going to stand by and watch as I don't care for B.S. lawsuit in which all my assets for which I work very hard for are at risk of being taken.
The beast has found its happy hunting ground.
to 1.15am---you can actually be disciplined if you speak the truth like that. Orders are you refer them to the local CAPS Office or News Affairs. I've been there, if you go against the company line and they find out-they'll BF you.
Had to call 911 last night for a disturbance on my block. It rang THIRTEEN times before anyone answered! That is dangerously slow. Thankfully it wasn't a life or death issue. This just goes to show that Rahm and McDrunko MUST be telling the truth. There's no crime. All is well. It's not that 911 calls are up so high that it takes multiple rings for the line to even be answered. It's not even summer yet
mcswill is trying to climb up a mountain covered in foot deep mud--- as he sits on the bar stool all popped up with his best poker face on he comes to the reality that he just doesn't know what he is doing--- putting this prima donna in charge of the mighty chicago police department was like putting a nun in charge of a whorehouse--- thank god for DOG "64", bottoms up....
This lying stupid east coast moron get him the fuck out of Chicago.
No major incidents and the reports of mayhem are patently false? Hey McDouchebag, first, the reports of mayhem are patently TRUE. Trying reading the newspaper or visting a few web sites, idiot. Looks like savages gone wild.
And no major incidents? Tell that to the doctor who got mugged last year east of Mich Ave, or the doctor who got attacked in a restroom of a restaurant on Mich Ave. What are you going to say, those don't count because they didn't happen ON, as opposed to NEAR, Mich Ave?
Go fuck yourself Garry. You are nothing but a complete puppet for the Rahmulus. Maybe if you're real nice to Mayor Murder, he'll give you your balls back.
Can you imagine if this trend continues? Honestly, it will be the end of our great city. If Michigan Ave. and downtown goes down then the city will go down.
This trend of shitheads and ghetto people hanging out in downtown and other trendy parts of Chicago didn't just happen overnight. This slowly started happening about six years ago and each year it has gone a little worse.
The mayor and the politicians are caught between a rock and a hard place. If they react too aggressively then the black community won't support them. If if they react too lightly then the city goes to shit. They have taken the "let the city go to shit route".
I work downtown and have been there for all of these "wildings."
Garry is right. The media is blowing this bullshit way out of proportion. This is the lead story on the news because some teen jagoffs run into the street? Please. The media is just making the problem worse by encouraging these losers.
This is not a big problem and the fact that posters keep making more out of it than they should shows the sad state of this department.
There is just way too much fear on this job today, especially in the police who work downtown. Fear of getting in trouble, fear of shitheads, fear of putting hands on people.
Every time this story gets played up it tells the public one thing. The CPD officers are not up to the job. I find it odd that so many officers like the publicity. It's like they enjoy telling people they are incapable of doing their job.
Get one thing straight. The media is not commenting on the shitheads. The media is commenting on you. The media is telling the public that Chicago Police are punks and everyone on this job eats it up. Odd.
I must Admit working in 018.We now have an extra 100 Officers on weekends for this problem,But the Beat cars are downed on every shoplifter and the beats go unprotected.
If 100 Tea Party members stage a tax protest the media has 50 cameras trained on them, hoping for an incident. Funny how the media can`t seem to catch these black mobs on camera as they attack our fellow citizens every weekend.
Will North Avenue Beach be closed this weekend for Heat Emergencies (or too many shitheads to ruin everyone's day?)
Chief Keef arrested in Atlanta suburb for disorderly. The dumbass posted his booking photo. Is this guy on probation? Another violation? Anita?
http://www.dnainfo.com/chicago/20130521/chicago/chief-keef-arrested-atlanta
Also notice, how he did NOT include assault in the list of things that didn't happen during these events?
Formerly safe neighborhoods are going to hell in a handbasket.
I'm shocked, shocked, I say...that anyone would dare to accuse top Chicago officials as being less than honorable, credible and trustworthy. Arrogant liars? How dare you!
Check out this text from last Saturday night's video from "48 Hours" with CBS News correspondent Armen Keteyian (AK) and Mayor Rahm Emanuel (RE):
AK: For months, we tried to get Mayor Rahm Emanuel to sit down and talk about the drugs, gangs and street violence affecting the city and how he plans to sustain the current level as the summer months approach but he refused. So we went to a press conference at City Hall.
[Press Conference begins]
AK: Mister Mayor, I'm Armen Keteyian from CBS News in New York. I'd like to start on a different topic...
RE: (interrupts) Wait a second. Just hold on. I'll get to you. I promise.
[Press Conference continues for about 15 minutes]
AK: Mister Mayor, you promised to answer my question...
[a now silent Rahm Emanuel abruptly leaves the room]

Garry McCarthy is integrity personified. He would NEVER lie. He's a honorable man of his word.
More Kool-Aid, anyone?
Just like Rahm lied to that genuflecting C-BS reporter on 48 Hours who had the audacity to ask Rahm an unscripted question, McCarthy lies.
It's all they got left in their diddy bag of tricks for useful idiots.
With the catastrophy that Rahm is, with Fubarak & his trifecta squared ineptitudes: Scare Force One, ObaminationCare, GM Bondholders screwing, MFGlobal, Fast & Furious, Solyndra, Benghazi, AP wire tapping, IRS intimidation, Fox News reporter Rosen's emails being read by the G, America is in a fork in the road.
Noting happens for the first time. A lot of this fuckery has occurred under both political parties. The difference this cycle, with this crew, is it is so much; and so in your face, blatant & condensed in such a short period of time, its stupefying.
Are we as a people so "pussified", so doltish, so diluted in assimilation as Americans, so devoid of critical thinking that we are going to allow these douchebags to destroy the foundation our forefathers built and died to preserve?
Ultimately, Chicago & America will get the government it deserves.
What that government will be will be determined in the next few years.
It looks grim with the potential mass amnesty of illegal immigrants and two to three generations of kids fed "Progressive" bullshit in failing schools.
But in flyover country, it's still a different story & they can grow their own food and they cling to their U.S. Constitution, Bill of Rights, G-d and Guns.
(ツ)
O.T. The city has sent out letters to all the retirees and are trying to screw us with the insurance coverage. We will be covered till 31Dec13 then the BS starts on 01Jan14.I could post the letter but I am not sure how to do it.Remember young officers hopefully you be able to retire!
Thank LT. Tom 702 for sending all his guys to redline chicago every weekend for their entire tour. He made the difference!
I urge everyone to look at the youtube video "Who Took Down Stockton"
pension and healthcare are all that matters this other stuff is nonsense, does it really matter where you work or if you cant use your comp time. be more concerned about the stuff that matters. you guys working all that V.R.I. so you can send your kids to college save the money to remodel your basement because odds are thats where your kid will be living.
Great Column by John Kass in Sunday's Tribune
IRS scandal a reminder of how I learned about THE CHICAGO WAY
Ok a little OT but I get into the Trib website and their headline is about this little criminal Chief Thief smoking pot in Atlanta.
I realize everyone knows the media is a completely biased joke but to glorify this mutt I thought was even below the once great Tribunes level. Pretty sad when you can't watch or read the news without having shit continually jammed down your throat.
What area of Chicago (which I may visit some day) is all of this happening?

Gov Quinn and his gang of thugs in Springfield expects to have the state pension money stolen from state employees by the end of the month
(God willing -- like the terrorist say)
The Chicago tribal concil should follow shortly.
Can we steal the bankers money and call it Banking Reform. Or steal from the corporations and call it corporate reform?
How about we confiscate Rahm's and the city coucils money including their campagain contribution accounts and call it a reform too and tell them it's because it's necessary.
No casino until we get our hands on those pensions and reform them OF COURSE!!!
Because if you get the casino first the pensions may just demand contributions for skipped pension payments.
We couldn't possibly let that happen, no. That money is for the clouted ones and their friends to do as they please.
Hey Garry, how many guns did the mayors million dollar CeaseFire take off the street?
What boxes are the mayors CeaseFire people operating in and how many contact cards did they write?
Have the mayors million dollar CeaseFire crew interuppeted any public urination -- we're just wondering -- what are the taxpayers getting for that million bucks.
Looks like Lou Lang has been taking notes on the perception thing regarding his withdrawal of sponsorship of the gaming bill. It not the truth, it just perception even if based on facts. They are all liars.

So far to date, there's been no major incidents, but what's getting reported is mayhem, and it's patently false," McCarthy says, claiming there's been no robberies, thefts or property damage.
Oh, he better pray for NO "major" incident. No robberies he claims, but knocking people off their bikes last summer was ok? Harassing people on the street is ok? Insulting.

Why don't jails bus "Non-Violent " Offenders to Okla and force the savages to see firsthand a community that will overcome extreme adversity by banding together to overcome tragedy. Make them sleep,eat and work along side a civilized people. Make them earn their releases and learn life lessons.

@ 4:44 PM...
Let me guess, you hung your star out the window on the traffic stop expecting the guy to just turn off his lights and drive away? Then when he didn't, you acted like a condescending asshole, because nobody on CPD should EVER get pulled over, or EVER get a ticket? Is that why you guys blatantly disregard stoplights and speed through suburbs thinking that you're above traffic law?
I personally do not ticket fellow cops. But I am seeing an extremely disturbing trend where CPD will drive like absolute fucktards through our area, then hang a star out the window, which is probably the dumbest thing you can do. It makes me want to write a ticket, even though I won't.
By the way, if and when I ask for your police ID, I'm not being a jag. I'm trying to make sure some idiot didn't steal your star out of a gym bag, and is trying to use it to play police and get out of tickets (119th and Kedzie anyone?). So cut the attitude. We may not have wildings or as many homicides here as you, but we still are out there walking the line, and don't need the "I'm better than you because I'm CPD" bullshit.

You did what any other father would have done to protect their son if he thought for a second his son was in danger. Fuck all these pukes who value the life of some piece of shit's dog over an innocent 5 year old. You did the right thing. BTW where the fuck is the outrage over taxpayers having to foot the bill for this leach's section 8 housing and 5 kids??? And a fucking dog???? Most people who work for a living can't afford 5 kids much less 5 kids and a fucking dog. And this piece of shit lives in the same area as the rest of us who are hustling to pay the mortgage and give our kids a good/safe area to grow up in. I guess this is what the wealth redistribution promised by sparklefarts looks like. Thanks again to all the dumb fucks who keep voting dumbocrat.

Shoulda left 5 minutes earlier.
They have extended professional courtesy to me on more than a few occasions when I was clearly in the wrong.
Being respectful goes a long way.
Late for work and no seatbelt:
Douchebag. U deserve what u got.
"I work downtown and have been there for all of these "wildings." You sound like a propaganda guy for Garry. If you were a cop, you would know we don't really like publicity of any kind. The media is making the city,as a whole, look bad, not just the police. If you have the gall to say the police are punks then you are no better than the punks running on the street without a brain.

Welcome aboard from THEE (NYPD) RANT, my brother. All the best to New York's Finest!
Think of the similarities between NYC and Chicago as follows:
Brooklyn = South Side
The Bronx = West Side
Fifth Ave (MTN) = "The Magnificent Mile" (N. Michigan Ave.)
Upper East Side (19th Pct.) = Near North Side (18th Dist.)
The roving bands/flash mobs of feral black youth from the crime-ridden South and West Sides come down to N. Michigan Ave. and the Near North Side and wreck havoc.
s/"Chicago PD NorthSide" (THEE RANT)
O.T. The city has sent out letters to all the retirees and are trying to screw us with the insurance coverage. We will be covered till 31Dec13 then the BS starts on 01Jan14.I could post the letter but I am not sure how to do it.Remember young officers hopefully you be able to retire!
Whats also interesting is that the FOP gave the law firm handling the case $50,000 after the law firm sent letters to retirees requesting donations to pay for the legal work
Am curious if the CFD union made a donation to the law firm or if any of the other 3 city unions have put money in If the FOP, CFD union and 3 others each give $50,000 that a quarter of a million dollars to fight Rahms proposal. or as usual letting the CPD and FOP take the lead and pay the expenses, while they sit back and ride in on our backs.
The healthcare is for ALL city retirees Lets see what our "brothers" union is going to do
It doesnt matter what really happens only how its perceived!
"Title: Call for United States Congress and Illinois Assembly to pass an assault weapons ban to protect communities
R E S O L U T I O N"
Another hard-hitting, time-wasting resolution by our city council. Not fixing the pension mess they've created. Not figuring out how to hire more police, etc.
These are the same idiots that passed a city ordinance banning nuclear weapons in the city, that exempted the federal government.
Here's another laugh...
Council debates banning drones from Evanston's skies
Activists fear abuse of government power

big thank you to the Harwood heights officer who pulled me over for no seatbelt while I was late for work you are truly a classless but I will happily pay the fine knowing that I am better than you in every way possible.

No, what is classless is that you make an excuse for your behavior (i.e. I was late to work). On top of that, a lot of officers drive super aggressively. Then they get hit with a ticket and then they whine. Just let it go and pay the fine. Have a nice day.
To the above cpd copper who was ticketed by HH... Why did you give him your license?? Dummy. Next time either tell him you don't have it and he will have to tvb you or call for his supervisor... Cops ticketing cops for petty shit like that should be embarrassed.. Say sorry, put it on and no further discussion. Skokie is the same way, very biased toward cpd

You must be a real jag-bag to not have gotten a professional courtesy...
Anyone knows anything about vri? Rumor is that they are going to cut back to only 320 at Racine and 150 at kedzie? Anyone from headquarters want o chime in.
I went back and read the NBC Chicago article about P.O. Kumiga. I unfortunately also read some of the comments, and even though the article is a few days old I felt compelled to leave my own in support of him. Guess what??? Went back about an hour later and my comment was gone! Imagine that!!! These idiots can spew their ignorance after reading an obviously biased article but my articulate defense of the brave officer is censored! Officer Kumiga, you are to be commended for protecting your child. Thank God he is ok! I am a dog lover and this is a sad story, but the only ones who deserve the blame are the irresponsible dog owners!!
I work downtown and have been there for all of these "wildings."
Garry is right. The media is blowing this bullshit way out of proportion. This is the lead story on the news because some teen jagoffs run into the street? Please. The media is just making the problem worse by encouraging these losers.
This is not a big problem and the fact that posters keep making more out of it than they should shows the sad state of this department.
There is just way too much fear on this job today, especially in the police who work downtown. Fear of getting in trouble, fear of shitheads, fear of putting hands on people.
Every time this story gets played up it tells the public one thing. The CPD officers are not up to the job. I find it odd that so many officers like the publicity. It's like they enjoy telling people they are incapable of doing their job.
Get one thing straight. The media is not commenting on the shitheads. The media is commenting on you. The media is telling the public that Chicago Police are punks and everyone on this job eats it up. Odd.

Bullshit. If you're there you'd either make an arrest cuz you're so astute and unafraid, or you're as goose-eyed and pigeon-toed as your conman superintendent.
It wasn't 40-50, it was at least ten groups of 40-50, running around breaking shit, fighting with each other, shoving bystanders, stopping traffic, clogging the train stations, and making decent people have to clear a path for their ridiculous stampeding from franklin to the lake and the river to division, unabated, and exempt from arrest because of their age and skin color.
If that's not a problem, if that's just the way it is now downtown or anywhere else, you can have it. This city and this nation is big time -ostrich head in the sand- done for.
I am better than you in every way possible.

There is no need for VRI. We have plenty enough police officers. There is no "crime problem." Crime is down. This is being blown way out of proportion. Crime is down. Supt. McCarthy is doing a bang up job.
--someone from headquarters
To 4:44, first of all, wear your seatbelt, it'll save your life, jag off.
Second, my guess is that you had a real attitude with the copper. My experiences with HHts have all been just fine. Because i wasn't a prick. So fuck you, pay the ticket.
And third, how dare you come to a public site and beef about not getting professional courtesy? What a dick.

Yeah tell the officer you don't have a DL, that will get you out of a ticket. No wait till the Sgt arrives on scene because he will stop it. How about don't act like a dick & and if you still get a ticket YOU WERE WRONG TO START WITH!! You make adult officers look bad!

From what was written it wasnt aggressive driving, it was a seatbelt violation, not a serios violation. And yes, some of us arent perfect, may speed or be late on a red light, not an excuse but a professional courtesy is not alot to expect
those of you hating. simple facts driver is CPD, pimpy ticket = give the guy a play.
Your one of the many reasons this department is in the crapper. Keep drinking the kool aid. Have a good one!
Where's that jag-off president from the Civic federation who keeps blowing his horn about how the city employees should be fucked out of our pension(s)when one of the biggest threats to the city are these fine young shitheads aka "flash mobs" as the press likes to call them who are about to destroy the business and tourist climate of one of the greatest cities in this country. The dumbfuck mayor along with the dumbfuck judges and liberal scum sucking media will all point the finger at George Bush for causing this city to go into the sewer just like Detroit. Liberalism at its finest. Cant get a handle on a bunch of "young black yutes" for fear of being called "a racist". How fucking pathetic is this county (Cook) and city?
@ 4:44 PM...
Let me guess, you hung your star out the window on the traffic stop expecting the guy to just turn off his lights and drive away? Then when he didn't, you acted like a condescending asshole, because nobody on CPD should EVER get pulled over, or EVER get a ticket? Is that why you guys blatantly disregard stoplights and speed through suburbs thinking that you're above traffic law?
I personally do not ticket fellow cops. But I am seeing an extremely disturbing trend where CPD will drive like absolute fucktards through our area, then hang a star out the window, which is probably the dumbest thing you can do. It makes me want to write a ticket, even though I won't.
By the way, if and when I ask for your police ID, I'm not being a jag. I'm trying to make sure some idiot didn't steal your star out of a gym bag, and is trying to use it to play police and get out of tickets (119th and Kedzie anyone?). So cut the attitude. We may not have wildings or as many homicides here as you, but we still are out there walking the line, and don't need the "I'm better than you because I'm CPD" bullshit.
Bro well said. We have a lot of assholes on CPD and trust me we are far from elite. I apologize for the behavior of the morons on this job.
Yeah tell the officer you don't have a DL, that will get you out of a ticket. No wait till the Sgt arrives on scene because he will stop it. How about don't act like a dick & and if you still get a ticket YOU WERE WRONG TO START WITH!! You make adult officers look bad!
Lets not jump to conclusions. None of us were there and dont know what happened. Sometimes the on duty officer isn't right and has an attitude for what ever reason. Maybe the guy was the second CPD officer he stopped and he didnt have his quota of tickets for the day, who knows.
All I'm saying is either could be right or wrong. Just like CPD, HH has good guys and bad guys

5/21/2013 11:30:00 PM
OR how about the HH cop is the jag-bag? Did you ever think of that? I think we've all worked with someone who would give their own Grandma a ticket.
To 4:44, first of all, wear your seatbelt, it'll save your life, jag off.

Jag off for not wearing a seat belt? Fuck you for your guess(not having any info about the incident)about his attitude?
And you say you weren't a prick. You could have fooled me.
In fairness you were right about the third point
Too quick to judge. Strange things happen out there.
Am old retired revolver police and in my day we always got out of the car when stopped and walked back to the officers car so as not to inconvienence the officer
Didnt get stopped often but once ISP officer kept telling me to get back in the car. When he approached and explained why I wasnt getting out, everything was cool because we BOTH had a good attitude.
My point is stuff happens because of an attitude of either or both and sometimes no one knows why
Let me guess, you hung your star out the window on the traffic stop expecting the guy to just turn off his lights and drive away? Then when he didn't, you acted like a condescending asshole, because nobody on CPD should EVER get pulled over, or EVER get a ticket?

I also apologize for some of my moron coworkers.
To my ignorant coworkers; we are not above the law or better than any other law enforcement officer because we are the Chicago police.while off duty be respectful to your fellow law enforcement officers nationwide but more importantly be respectful to the citizens. When you are off duty, you are suppose to blend in with your surroundings, not drive like a jag because you are the police. When pulled over for a minor traffic infraction, hand the officer your police I'd with your license and insurance card and apologize. Why apologize? Because you know that every time you pull over a car, your stress level raises. It raise because you are worried about being shot and killed. No traffic stop is routine.
Why all the negative comments. Why would u ever ticket another copper?

Sick of lies? Damn, how are you going to last 29 years?
I was lied to beginning the very first day in the academy. People lied to me when they didn't have to, they are just so accustomed to it I guess. I got pretty damn good at detecting lies. Mostly it wasn't too hard. After about 10 years it was easy. After 20 years I just wanted to tell people, hey, come on, you can do better than that. I would tell someone they are lying and they asked me how I knew. Jesus, the shithead on the street is typically a better liar that these people I work with and for. Sometimes I had to stop and think about how I knew, to see if there was asomething I could explain that gave them up. Frequently there wasn't, just a feeling, a sense, a tingle or a twitch and bam, I knew.
if you weren't there you don't know how either cop acted on that traffic stop. I was pulled over in Wisconsin for supposedly not yielding a lane fast enough on the 94 for a stopped police vehicle as I passed one of their speed traps. I opened all my windows, and turned on all my lights before he walked up to my car so he could see everything and everyone inside. I had my license, insurance and button waiting in hand.
This Racine county deputy sheriff called his spot "border patrol." Said he was sick and tired of "you Chicago guys coming up here driving 90 miles an hour like the law don't apply to you."
I asked him if he could try to consider that I wasn't speeding, he wasn't stopping me for speeding, and I should at least not be issued a ticket for what "all the other Chicago guys" supposedly do...
He accused me of trying to elude him because I had pulled over so quickly, which he felt was done to make him have to pass me up (not kidding).
The guy wrote me for not yielding a lane to a police (emergency)vehicle on a stop.
He had issues, because he went on and on about how much 'real police work' they have to do up there and how we're not the only ones having to deal with shit (that's a pattern and a self-conscious feeling of inadequacy I notice when you tell people you're Chicago).
Again, I pointed out I was on his side.
He didn't show up for court, but the racket they run up there is you either pay the fine or come back after spending hours waiting to see their court officer, who reminds you that when you have to come back, it'll be another long wait. Then he tells me the deputy added in his remarks that I was an odpo from Chicago so the judge "won't be happy" if I request a hearing and "their judge" sees two cops contradicting each other (meaning his guy has more credibility).
Bottom line, for 15 years, I've never written a copper. Rude or not, I was taught to give the courtesy, deserved or not, if it's just lousy traffic. I'm not scolding and lecturing another one of my brothers on a damn traffic stop, or writing him a ticket, he knows better and so do I- or at least we should know better.
"...while off duty be respectful to your fellow law enforcement officers..."
Don't feel bad about respecting other coppers while on-duty, either.

I meant don't write coppers, but... Oh, well, some guys wanna write cops and if we're that cop getting written we just have to accept that some cops go home, tell their families what a tough job they have, what with having to pull over cops who drove too fast, made lane changes without signalling, didn't wear seat belts, or committed some heinous act or transgression in violation of laws written for cops to use in order to have probable cause to pull jagoffs over and legally pursue BIGGER CRIMES THAN TRAFFIC, LOSER !
I worked with a ppo once who went immediately out of roll call to a stop sign in a busy district... I chose to be passenger to prove a point that she should be able to start using her police discretion to pick and choose what was important enough for her to decide as driver what we'd be doing that night...and to prove I didn't mind doing paper as senior man in vehicle.
I asked her what the fuck she was doing at monroe and pulaski on a silly stop sign, to which she confidently replied, "I'm getting my traffic out of the way..."
I couldn't hold back. "you want to stop someone for traffic, we're on midnights on the godamn westside, you stop whoever the fuck you want, and if all you have is traffic, maybe you write them for traffic, or maybe you find something you should be looking for in the first place."
Traffic don't mean shit!
