Help is Coming
- Gov. Pat Quinn is willing to discuss sending in reinforcements from the Illinois State Police to help Chicago authorities deal with the violence, after a mass shooting Thursday night left 13 people injured, including a 3-year-old boy.
The governor “stands ready” to talk with Mayor Rahm Emanuel and law enforcement officials in Chicago “about the possibility of providing additional Illinois State Police reinforcements to help stop the violence,” Quinn spokeswoman Brooke Anderson said Saturday.
Quinn told reporters earlier in the day he hadn’t spoken yet with the mayor or Police Supt. Garry McCarthy.
“If they want to speak to me about that,” Quinn said, “I’m certainly always willing and able to sit down.”
Help will arrive - just as soon as Grau gets the State Police Academy up and running and filled with eager troopers ready to battle crime! Wait, you mean no one told Quinn the State Academy was about as bare as ours had been? That the State Police stopped hiring around the time we did five years ago due to "budgetary constraints" and now they are as short as any police force around the State? That Grau was hired like McCarthy was, to be an outsider wielding an axe.
Unless once again, the solution, is to strip cops/troopers from taxpaying areas and dumping the entire force into the ghetto - that couldn't be the entire plan, could it?
UPDATE: Post clarified to demonstrate the lack of hiring for 5 years and the near-futile efforts to keep up with attrition

Still, wouldn't you have liked to have been a fly on the wall to see rahmmy's reaction when he heard this?!?! His head probably turned purple and was pulsating. Rammy doesn't like being shown up...especially by Potatohead.
I can just see those PPO Troopers standing on a corner in 007 with their shinny shows and smokey bear hat.
Even if they did then what's the long term solution -- A military state?
The answer to SCC's questions is "none of the above".
Quinn has learned the value of the press conference. The headlines will read "Governor Offers Help". He looks like a hero, no help ever has to be given and everything goes on as it did before.
Your academy is bare...? Haven't been out in a while, SCC? Classes 13-1 through 13-4 all graduated within the past 2 months. There are classes 13-5 through 13-8 in there currently. How has the academy been bare exactly...?
Here's an idea--pull ISP off the expressways and tollways and deploy them in the ghetto so I can get to where I am going faster.
The Mexican Says;
Non-taxpayers (aka; welfare recepients) are the driving force in this state AND this City.
It's best to contribute nothing to the society, and to deplete is resources, say the politicians.
Wait a minute. We don't need them. According to downtown we got plenty of cops. Why add more?
Things can change when IPRA is not in charge. Since they are, proactive policing is a thing of the past. Congratulations social liberals and communists.
Hey SCC. I hate to try to use your blog as a tool for this. But every copper in Chicago has come across such gross neglect of the Link card system. That it actually sickens them. Selling them outright or using them to buy refundable bottles of milk which is then poured out and the bottles returned for cash to buy newports etc. Each and everyone of us has a story much like that I'm sure. I was appalled to find this story not listed on any of the US news sources and only available on the BBC. I would really like regular citizens to know the abuse in the system. House republicans are trying, but can we open up the comments to see what the masses of us blue shirts have seen? Something has to change with this system. At least the public who reads this blog should be in the know. I just want people to understand that its not taking away from people, but that it's being abused horribly. When it was set up our leaders couldn't fathom a world where people wouldn't want to better themselves. This is that world. Pay attention. Way to much free money being handed out.

Quinn could help just by keeping the criminals in jail where they could not prey on the communities. Common sense Quinn?
But I thought we had enough officers! Isn't that what Rahm and McBeers have been saying all along?
we don't need the state police--- they already have enough to worry about--- we need seal team 6 and steve siegal......
McCarthy will be part of Rahm's upcoming strategy to accept publicly that there are places where a new direction is needed and there are things we need to do with a fresh approach.
It's those b.s. platitudes that buy second chances from an electorate that likes to hear their leaders admit fault without admitting fault.
While Rahm is going around promising more unbelievably ridiculous nonsense to his kool-aid drinking democrat zombies, McCarthy knows this means his turn at the podium giving weekly fake strategy updates and feigning a strong conviction with an almost straight face are fast coming to an end.
Gulliford will dutifully play the role of interim superintendent before making his own admitted exit much the way of past up-and-comings. Staples will take his place as chief of patrol as Wysinger ultimately gets the nod as Rahm's next Super puppet.
Look for cdr. Jones (020), next 1st Dep.
This gives the much needed political cover for the required debt to the presumptive segments looking for validation, while giving the impression that Rahm is ready to look from within to take the necessary steps to tackle the issues facing the department and the communities most effected.
Meanwhile, Leo remains the hottest thing in law enforcement since Wyatt Earp... in his own mind, but the consolation is that while his face turns red in embarrassment for the obvious slight, no one can tell the difference.
This violence will eventually bankrupt the City, State and County. In a few weeks, when Obamacare kicks in "Navigators" will be taking all the information, medical records, SS numbers, addresses etc. The "Navigators" are to be hired by Community organizations, community activist, Church groups, etc. No background checks are required for the job, the "navigators" must match the racial and ethnic makeup of the communities that hire them. There is absolutely no control over this at this time. Think Obama phones were out of hand? wait until they start using and selling your information. This is going to be very interesting more jobs for cease fire. Lock and Load people.
So, the Chicago coppers have completely lost control of the streets in their own city. According to the Chief, the answer is more gun control laws, assault weapon bans and ban on hi-cap mags. Or so I hear on the news. Somehow, I don't think more gun control laws are the answer, but stop and frisk, like in NYC might help.
They will probably send another trooper to patrol the X-ways, then announce that Chicago crime is down because of Quinn's efforts at strengthening the C.P.D.
Is the 101st available?
Hiram Grau will be our next superintendent
Right, because Illinois State Troopers who do DUI's, write speeders and traffic crash reports want to come here and deal with the beast. The shitheads in the ghetto will have a great time with the State Police and their Smoky the Bear Hats and sharply pressed uniforms as baby momma with her aunt jemima doo rag screams on and on about how baby daddy (was that baby daddy 1, 2, 3 or 4?) jumped on her and won't give her any money for orange pop and flamin hots cuz he spent his money on making bond.
Sure, and maybe some southern Illinois National Guardsman want to spend more time away from their job and families and walk the streets of Chicago being police for the savages.
The Iraqis and Afghans look ultra civilized by comparison.
They're not hiring but they sure are pocketing the Middle Class Taxpayer Dollars allotted for hiring in their yearly Budgets.
So now pat Quinn wants to join Rahm Emanuel in stealing police resources from taxpayers to give to the ghetto.
IT WONT STOP THE SHOOTINGS!!
This theft of services needs to stop. I'm sick and tired of my tax dollars going towards people who contribute nothing to society and are rewarded for bad behavior with link cards, free housing and lots of police protection.
Taxpayers and businesses are sick of this and are leaving Illinois !!!
Once again, all socialists lie. It's what they do to further their agenda. Look at the ridiculous history of communist countries and the moronic lies they told. Does that not sound like Chicago? The beach is too hot near the cool water. Crime is down while hordes of savages go wilding downtown. A drunk from the east coast spinning numbers and pandering to the black community so his socialist masters can get votes.
This is what you voted for.
This is off subject, but iPhone users who subscribed to that day off group calendar may have noticed that it no longer works. Well, in one of my insomniac moments (1st Watch 025), I made another one here is the link pass it on "webcal://p04-calendarws.icloud.com/ca/subscribe/1/kNlQqbZs30ky2fg9dJ-NIQRLEkUX52S0gs5FncHrnyBJjnsC9K-bSqpy-LZg3ok5zVtyOvcGiePUB6I0eBdpLR_FqqIvohrn3PsJnmR3u8E"
There's no need for any outside assistance.
Father Faker just held a march. Everything is OK now. Whenever there's a march against violence, things turn out OK. That's the ghetto response to things. Have a march and chant simple rhymes while your holy man is out front.
Savages.
I don't want nobody Quinn sent.
McDrunk doesn't want help from any Pilgrims. The problem is institutional racism and guns. If only he and Rahm could suspend the Constitution for a while, they could get to the bottom of this.
The problem is not with the black community and their lack of respect for education, work ethic and morals. It's the guns and lack of jobs. Employers are just lining up waiting for an uneducated thug to show up to work illiterate, talking ebonics and wearing his pants under his ass and corn rows on his head. Employers want that thug, violent image in the workplace.
Time to build a wall.
What are the state police going to do ? Write gangbangers traffic tickets.
Yes. Isn't that already the entire plan?
If you think crime is bad now, wait til Obama tells the couch dwellers there is no more money to give. If they want food and board they will have to work for it.
Quinn is going to provide more cameras, not more police.
Hmmmm. Seems like lots of kids have been shot, yet cameras don't seem to have prevented shit.
But the speed cameras and the red light cameras 'protect the children', so I guess we break even?
You have got to be kidding me. How was this one missed.
To wit: At a recent lecture to medical students at Loyola University, Weis reportedly said he thinks Obama could do more to help Chicago kids understand that keeping information from police will only further the shooting.
Weis said he spoke to children who told him hearing from Obama would help them overcome their fear of being snitches

Hey Potatohead if you really want to help then RESIGN!!!! Second highest unemployment rate in the nation, murder capital of the US in your state, unprecedented poverty, 100 billion in unfunded pension obligations, and worst credit rating in the US. The shitheads are out killing people and you're killing jobs. You've been an abject failure, there's nothing useful you can do or offer anyone, especially the police. The only thing you've done successfully is drive this state further into the ground.
Alderman Fioretti just on CBS stating the problem lies with Rahm and he needs to hire more police .. Ya think?
Another political move by potato head. This has been going on for how long? All of a sudden he is ready to talk and help. BUT he is waiting till they contact him. Give me a freakin break.
.... All to help people that don't want help
God forbid the ISP stop and frisk anyone, the community won't be havin that!
Why not start putting those PPO's in cars with non-FTO's. Enough of having them on those party buses to stand around and do nothing. I see those kids sitting around in the station lot waiting for their Sgt.
Nothing against the State Police, but they are not the answer. The answer is for Rahm to get off of his ass and hire 3000 more coppers. But the likely hood of that happening is slim and none.
Quinn is a Moron, but I have to give him credit for this remarkable insult to Rahm, in essence he is comparing Chicago to East St. Louis! Does East St. Louis generate a lot of Tourist Dollars for the State's Treasury, the way Chicago does? Is this payback for Rahm's support of Bill Daley? Whatever the case it made the national news, and we look like Chumps. And maybe we have become Chumps for putting up with this Democrat incompetence for decades.
Ummmm...Didn't they try this a couple years ago? I see that fixed everything.
If Tiny Dancer wants to stop the violence, shag the shitheads out of the parks at dusk, lock the gates, turn off the lights, and close the convenience stores at 10 pm.
The ISP belongs on the highways, stopping the doped up, log-book cooking truckers who ply the highways day and night.
Quinn continues to be as big a joke as Blago, maybe more honest, but still a joke, if he gets reelected all hope is lost and only the Cook County democrats to blame, wake up people. ISP can't handle their own job as it is. All the Sheriffs in the State are handling all state routes in their county. The ISP is down by at least 20 to 25 % in the last 25 years.
ISP has hundreds of troopers hidden away and ready to go right?
Sorry,those days ended years ago. No one left. Dems took care of the budget and hiring.
Napolean and McFailure will refuse any outside help.
After all both of those assholes keep lying through their teeth and saying we have plenty of officers we just need to use them to the utmost efficiency.
Accepting help would be admitting that they're wrong..... and Napolean is never wrong.. just ask him.
Unless once again, the solution, is to strip cops/troopers from taxpaying areas and dumping the entire force into the ghetto.
Better yet. just wall off the fuckin ghetto and put guards on the wall. Lots cheaper.
Blago (may he ROT in the Federal Pen) promised us the same thing remember?
http://newsblogs.chicagotribune.com/clout_st/2008/07/blagojevich-sug.html
Dan Rostenkowski (may he ROT in hell) promised the Chicago Police a fuckin' Huey Helicoper.

why do we need help, rahmbo and mcswiller say we have plenty--- quinn's head must be stuffed with kielbasa--- he can't fix anything downstate but he can come up here and show all of us heathens how to run things--- what really sucks is that we will be stuck with this blowhard after the next election for another term of misery....
Word on the street is that Securitas is starting a gang & tact team to help with the violence.
What about the county sheriff? Oh that's right, they are locked in the basement.
Chief KJ
will tax paying citizens from Beverly,Mount Greenwood , Garfield Ridge , Wildwood and Jefferson Park ever receive equal protection from the Chicago Police Department?
All pay three times more in tax , receive no welfare assistance , yet have one beat car for a geographic area that has 3 to 5 beat cars , plus specialized units , officers working special employment to protect gang bangers and drug dealers from killing each other.
Obama can order ships into lake Michigan and order tomahawks strikes. problem solved
I say we deputize all the piss bums in the loop, pay them a half dog of Night Train and have them under the command of the almighty fearless Cooter !
Will getting outside help mess with my VRI?
We're waiting with bated breath in Fort Bragg.
We're "the Screaming Eagles" and we're closer. Straight up north from Fort Campbell.
Deacons for the Defense
We need more section 8 locations opened up in Wilmette, Lake Forest Burr Ridge and Wheaton.
I will declare martial law in Chicago. The U.S. Constitution is hereby suspended indefinitely by my executive order.
"Unless once again, the solution, is to strip cops/troopers from taxpaying areas and dumping the entire force into the ghetto - that couldn't be the entire plan, could it?"
---------
Am I missing something? Did I read this wrong? Was this bad wording? As a tax payer on the west side of Chicago, am I not entitled to police protection because I can't afford to move to lakeview?
Where the hell were all these dogs that are doing VRI now? Are you kidding me to let this happen. This is the shit you see in movies not in real life in a big city were police are working VRI to keep the shootings down Lol. Hop the gunfire didn't disturb your sleep or watching movies. Good job out there and you wonder why they would want PPO's out there instead of you old dogs Lol. Be safe out there everyone, They are using the big guns nowadays.

The truth about the violence reduction program aka VRI. The program started with over 400 veteran officers patrolling high crime areas, split up into little boxes. The program was extremely successful and the shootings dropped by 60% and murders by 40%.
After one year the city decided to become cheap. They placed money over citizen's lives, by cutting over the 400 veteran officers to less than 200 veteran officers. The Chicago Police Department substituted these 400 veteran officers with probationary officers, who are untrained, making 15 dollars less per hour.
As a result of this stupid cost saving measure, within three weeks of reducing the veteran officer manpower, the massive shooting massacre occurred. What high ranking police boss or was it Rahm made this foolish decision to cut the veteran officers numbers by over half?
There is no doubt in my mind, that if they would have had the 400 veteran officers out there patrolling, the shooting most likely would not have occurred, because of the high visible patrol.
Maybe these politicians should stop spending money on public infrastructure improvements, like new streets, sidewalks and street lights, in these high crime areas, where there are two houses on a block and the rest are boarded up.
These politicians should spend this money on public safety because its only a matter of time, before we have another St. Valentine's Day Massacre.
It's up to you Chicago to vote these clown politicians out of office.
Let us work overtime in our own districts. Wait. Wasn't that the plan BEFORE Rahm took office? Hmmm? What happened to that plan? That should take care of the manpower issues a little bit. Don't get me wrong we NEED more hired help. But at least for the time instead of sending the vri troops to OTHER districts.
Cooter is ready, he is up to 6 push-ups!
So lets see... you can afford to throw away a million dollars, unaccounted for, to a "violence intervention group"... you cut man power to unprecedented levels... you hire some "legend in his own mind" womanizing drunk to run the Department.... what would the motive be...????
Now you want to hang your hat on a corrupt idiot who has assisted in bankrupting the state with no end in sight....
Tired of the bullshit yet?
Seriously?
The I.S.P. way of Policing is untainted by the bullshit that is Chicago Municipal Code and the anti-Police/anti-law enforcement mindset that permeates City and Cook County government.
A jaundiced and accusatory eye toward IPRA, Corporation Counsel, CCSAO and Cook County Courts...
Section 5 of The Illinois Compiled Statutes is pristine and indicative of the hard-eyed common sense of circa 1961 pertaining to the law, law enforcement and law enforcement use of force.
It would be amusing to see the Road Cops work their "magic" and the screaming and marching that's sure to follow because the "Catered To Constituents" don't like what's being pulled out of the hat...
Heh... What is Dude going to do when big ole farmer from down around I-70 gets his hands on him?
>Video clip of a dish rag being wrung out with audio of screaming, crying and religious testifying sprinkled with random threats suing<
Fuck, I don't care about all the crime in my neighborhood here in 016. I'm pissed the airlines are now going to fly over our homes every 60 seconds using the new runways. I'll get an apt.here and live out of the city like the bosses do. Fuck this.
When I first read that Quinn was offering state police to help out CPD I had to laugh. The ISP is so low on manpower that patrols are routinely unstaffed. Been this way for many years and it's only getting worse due to the mismanagement and thieving of the Illinois politicians. Everyone needs to stop being so concerned about the ghetto thugs killing themselves. Who gives a shit. As far as I'm concerned they can all kill each other and I wouldn't lose a minute of sleep. Worry about the decent hard working taxpayers and let the animals keep thinning their herds.
Quinn haven't you been paying attention, CRIME IS DOWN!
I recall Gov. Blago making the same offer sometime
back. The politicians are all the same. Until we really clean house, and I mean getting rid of not only the elected ones but also all of the relatives working throughout government that they took care of with jobs and positions of authority, we will be getting the same thing back for our hard earned dollars, nothing.
Still not enforcing the federal gun laws already on the books that would send these offenders AWAY from the area. Reverends have their own agenda - trying to save them all, hold everyone hostage for jobs and money in a system already bankrupt. And we are supposed to care?
The right hand does not know what the left hand is doing. I'm waiting to see what the Pillsbury Dough Boy (Durbin) will add to the mix.
I believe we should start the "Stop and Tickle" we've tried just about every other asinine idea out there.

If anyone thinks Grau is the answer think again. Just another political puppet brought in to obey the higher ups. He a perfect yes man. Cline used him and when he left the PD he took jobs that he actually had to work at and bailed on them and took to the no brainer ISP job.
For anybody that ever has patronized or sees the food truck Fido to Go, don't give them your hard earned money. On their Facebook page, they're openly stating that they hate Chicago Police Officers and are going to tell kids to do the same. Look them up and see for yourselves
Don't worry be happy the Russian Navy will shortly be patrolling off north ave beach after Obama screws up more talks with Putin.

Another reason they should have left Miegs Field open
Airplane finds surprising landing strip: Lake Shore Drive
By Adam SegeTribune reporter
11:40 a.m. CDT, September 22, 2013
The man who landed his airplane on Lake Shore Drive early Sunday morning peered past rows of police cars, gaping drivers and news trucks, searching for his fiancee's red SUV while giving her directions.
"You can't miss it," said the soft-spoken pilot into his cellphone.
Indeed, the sight of an airplane parked on a strip of grass by Buckingham Fountain caused quite the spectacle Sunday morning. Police officers posed for photos, drivers slowed for a closer look, and joggers and bikers on the lakeshore path traded witty one-liners.
"Oh … this is where I left my airplane," one biker shouted to a companion.
Just two hours earlier, John Pedersen of Lombard had been flying his two-seater plane over downtown Chicago when a stabilizing part broke loose, causing the aircraft to shake violently.
Unable to regain stability, the 51-year-old electrician radioed a mayday call to O'Hare Airport.
"There's no way I could have got it to Midway or O'Hare," he said.
At the time of the mayday call, about 5:45 a.m., he was flying just 1,900 feet above Millennium Park, he said.
The sun had not yet risen over Lake Michigan, but already Lindsay O'Brien was starting to set up a water station in Grant Park for a 20-mile run. Looking up, she saw Pedersen's plane flying south across the western portion of the park, then banking and flying above Lake Shore Drive.
"I was like, 'That's really low,' " she later recalled. "And then he disappeared out of my sightline."
Pedersen. who said he had been flying for five years, had decided the drive was his best landing spot. If timed correctly, he figured, he could bring down the plane while traffic was stopped at a red light.
"You pick a landing spot that's not going to jeopardize anybody else," he said.
When the light on East Balbo Avenue turned red, he brought the plane down in the northbound lanes, its nose facing north.
It was a tricky landing, but he stuck it, Chicago Fire Department spokesman Larry Langford said admiringly.
Two cars actually hit the airplane after it landed – and then, mysteriously, sped off, Pedersen said. One can only imagine what their drivers were thinking.

My lord. McCarthy has really fucked up this department
what are the State Police going to do? They are shrinking (not as fast as Chicago's manpower) but they are spread thin across the entire state already. Send us a dozen troopers cars to patrol the city streets? Every car they pull over in the ghetto district has either no drivers license, suspended drivers license or a revoked drivers license. They'll spend their entire tour writing tickets in the station. They still avoid to talk about the obvious. The court system is broken, not bent but broken and the mass shortage of police officers in Chicago (1,876 but who's counting) has a great impact on crime, public safety and most importantly to me, OFFICER SAFETY. and Rahm wants to cut the police budget another 10% next year....
ot the contract the sgt. received they only pay $220 a month for health insurance after they retire family plan. i am over 65 and do not qualify for medicare and pay over $850 or $950 for family plan and my child under 26 isn't cover due to fact the benefit manager saying the new bill is not o'bama care it is the affordibility act and the city can not afford it. I would to have that insurance for $220 a month. Can you address this on a new post any others in same siuation.
Further clarification....
Class13-8 is only 24 strong out of 28 that were hired. Three didn't show and one left the first day. All classes have more than one recruit already certified by the state to be the police. Instead they must sit in classes for six months while they are taught outdated material. They are being trained for a test they don't have to take instead of using them wisely by consolidating their training and shipping them to help in the districts. Looks like they are down to the bottom of the 2010 list. Putting the PPO's on the street corners is not going to solve anything. They will just be sitting ducks and become targets. These ballbags know this and will take advantage of the lack of experience.
Hey SCC Know you're busy getting ready for Bears game tonight and hate to bother. But I think it would be comical to portray our idiot mayor Tiny Dancer and our drunk supt McIAMDRUNKLETSSHOOTOUTSTREETLIGHTS as Beavis and Butthead. We could have a field day with this. No offense to Beavis and Butthead since they are far more intelligent than those 2 fools.
If the tac units and narcotic hair gels did what they suppose to do the CPD would be fine.
Blaming the NYC guy is b.s already.
When you look at the photos from last weeks shooting why are all those tac people and other civilian dressed in jeans (40)standing around and b.s'ing.An purpose for this ? I thinks the dicks and crime lab had the scene handled.
One would think they should be hitting the area on foot or in their cars.
The hair gel legends with 4-7 yoj rule ! LOL.
And the elite one bag a day narcotic unit with manpower that caused their flooring in their office to shift, what do they really do.
The Supt should about scrap 90 % of narcotics and send these wonders to a beat car.
Please hair gels, reelect your guy Shields when the time comes. Enjoy your 100 dollar retro check in two years and pay more for medical benifits.
The only copper' doing their job are the dick' and they are burning out from the case load they carry.
No wonder so many dick' are getting heart problems for wanting to do the great job they do.
I seen it all in the many years otj, but you hair gels are a trip.
Troopers assigned to the expressways are 75% down from when they started, and you want them to patrol the streets too???
Just shows you how far out of touch he is..
When the troopers are not able to quell the violence, he will call in the Illinois National Guard. , I can just see those convoy's of Humvees and Bradley Fighting Vehicles moving down the Dan Ryan to Englewood. Just like Detroit in 1968. Obama, Rahm, the reverends, community activists, violence interrupters and other useless POS would have a cow.
Back years ago, when the Israeli Army was pounding the Palestinians, an Indiana legislators said tongue in cheek that the State of Indiana should offer Gary as a new homeland to the Palestinians because they would be right at home in all the burned out neighborhoods. Flash forward to now. Obama should offer Englewood to the Syrian rebels as a new homeland. Hell, they would turn things around there in no time.
Forget Chicago send them to the prison system, maybe these lame ass judges will keep people in jail with the extra manpower
Packing my A Bag and read to come and help out my brothers in blue. Haha. Actually just looking forward to getting paid OT to come up and eat deep dish pizza and real Italian Beef sangamiches. You can't get dat kinda chow south of I-80. Seriously, most Troopers would jump in with everything they got to help the CPD but fuck the savages in the ghetto and Quinn the accidental gubner. Just a big PR stunt and Tiny Dancer would never let Gov Queen one up him. But always believe we got your back CPD.
This is off subject, but iPhone users who subscribed to that day off group calendar may have noticed that it no longer works. Well, in one of my insomniac moments (1st Watch 025), I made another one here is the link pass it on
Dude! Thanks! I was missing that after I updated my iPhone! Seriously, very cool.
Hasn't Quinn been listening to Rahm and McPuppets lies?
More manpower is NOT the answer.
Except when you want to cut down crime in an area...you flood it with more manpower.
What the F---?
Alderman Fioretti just on CBS stating the problem lies with Rahm and he needs to hire more police .. Ya think?
I'm sure I'll get a ton of sh*t for saying this, but, most of the time, Fioretti is a friend to the police. I've seen him at more than one coppers wake. He quietly gets into line like everyone else and does call attention to himself. He hasn't sold his soul to The Rahmfather like many aldermen (O'Connor -the female) comes to mind.
Here's a facebook post to read from Fido to Go (the post was later removed, but not before several times announcing that Fido to Go proudly placed complaints against the police) ----- "Fido to Go - Wow! I'm so sorry #Andersonville for the mess with the CPD! We have never received this treatment from any of the Police Officers in Andersonville until now! So disgusted and disappointed! I'll no longer support the CPD as well as any city officials! No longer will I encourage anyone including children to love the CPD and our city! I'm so finished, disgusted and done! The first cop was a bully, as we were leaving to pack up for he day, a second police officer was a jerk and said, he was sent to write us the tickets? What the hell is going on here? While we have shooting one mile away, gang activity, muggings, rapes, pan handlers, it takes 4 squads to issue 2 parking tickets for a doggy treat truck! Are you kidding? What the hell has our city turned into? With many residents sticking up for the Fido To Go truck as well as being nothing but supportive, the Andersonville Police did not care what they said! Wow, makes me wonder if it's the CPD that is really stirring up most of the issues with crime and such! If we continue to have issues in Andersonville, we'll have no choice and to bypass the neighborhood. We apologize.

Hey dumbass, you're apparently ignorant of the fact that the ISP makes the most criminal arrests in the state behind the Chicago PD.
didn't the state governement close down a couple trooper stations in the chicagoland area as well as down state just a few years ago.

Your academy is bare...? Haven't been out in a while, SCC? Classes 13-1 through 13-4 all graduated within the past 2 months. There are classes 13-5 through 13-8 in there currently. How has the academy been bare exactly...?
9/22/2013 12:20:00 AM
You must be a Chicago public school product. Your reading comprehension skill are sorely lacking. The lack of hiring in the last few years is what the point was. The fact that they're only now pushing recruits through the academy is an act of desperation to keep up with those who are retiring. We're still short and they expect to keep us that way for the foreseeable future.
Fuck having the State Police come here to try and control these savages, we need the CPD back on the expressways to help the State Police out with these misfits that drive like fools. I stand a better chance of getting hurt or killed when driving on these roads then when I work in the GHETTO!!!!!!
D10 which is 10 Counties in East Central Illinois has over 10000 sq miles of territory over 500 miles of US/Interstate and State Routes. They have maybe 45 road troopers to cover this. Remind me again why they have to go to Chicago to cover for the troopers who are watching the citizens of Chicago? I really do not care if the savages shoot each other.

If goofy is right and it was an assault weapon, figure an AK-47 or AR-15, I would figure that more people would be dead or seriously injured. Maybe it was a .22 semi auto. I would like to hear what shells were recovered. This man is a disgrace to the Police Dept. Thank you
I was thinking the same thing.. How can a .223 rifle bullet fired at closer distance not rip your arm,leg, or head off if a direct hit? I bet it was a .22 also. I saw one guy was hit and released that night. Maybe struck by fragments? Just wondering......

You guys were not in the military. That's why you believe socialists and their evil gun myths. A 5.56 X45 mm or a 7.62 X 39 mm fired from an AR platform or an AK or SKS will not rip your arm or leg off.
Why don't you get to a range and ask someone that knows before you spout off such bullshit and sound like uneducated morons? Educate yourselves and then speak intelligently on the topic. Don't throw out bullshit you've heard like some sort of Cliff Claven Cheers goofballs. You're not helping by sounding like dumb asses. Leave that to the socialists and their useful idiots. Grab a book, study and learn to think for yourselves.

This sums up two types of people pretty well. Those who know and make it their business to know, and those who just want to be heard even though they are ignorant of what they speak of. Guess which ones vote democrat?

So, the Chicago coppers have completely lost control of the streets in their own city. According to the Chief, the answer is more gun control laws, assault weapon bans and ban on hi-cap mags. Or so I hear on the news. Somehow, I don't think more gun control laws are the answer, but stop and frisk, like in NYC might help.

Someone may need to look again. Though the ISP is woefully short just like us, they had a class in their academy within the last 18 months.
I drive I 55 to Bloomington four times a month. Each time I rarely see a trooper, either on the drive down, or the trip back.
I've doing this for six months now.
They are short as well.
The Cook County Sheriffs Police would be thrilled to help you guys. We really do. We wanted to help out with NATO, but because Dart didn't get a engraved silver invitation from your mayor, dart being the narcissistic jag bag that he is didn't allow our department to help you. Trust me, I know, this is the truth.
Now this thing comes up. I know for a fact that your brass want us to help you but again the Sheriff will not lift a finger unless Emanuel gets on his knees begging, eyes skyward towards dart. Just ask Georgias about this if you don't believe me.
Almost 8 years of this SOB Dart. We are the laughing stock of Illinois Law Enforcement. You think you have it bad under Weis, Cline or McCarthy? They clowns can not hold a candle to our clowns.
I am a Police Officer. I always thought I was a pretty good one. I was an FTO and a Detective, now I am back in patrol doing my time until it is time to go. Heck, I even taught Field Force under Jerry Janosz. So I think we (I at least) could have helped you at NATO. I remember a time when we were a damned good department, and had a true "don't fuck with us" reputation. Now that ship has long sailed away. I am surrounded by weak supervisors and traffic Nazis. Next, the Court Bailiffs want to run us, and now we got one of them as our FDC for a week now. Very sad.
m I missing something? Did I read this wrong? Was this bad wording? As a tax payer on the west side of Chicago, am I not entitled to police protection because I can't afford to move to lakeview?
9/22/2013 11:03:00 AM
No, that's not what was said. You are entitled to police service, just like EVERYONE ELSE IS. If my 30 square mile district has less police than your 4.5 square mile district, do you see that as a problem? Those of us who pay higher taxes would like our FAIR share of the pie. Instead, most of the pie goes to the smallest areas, and the larger areas suffer with higher crime, because someone said 'oh look there's almost no crime there, lets take their police' So what happens? someone figures out there are less police there and the crime moves in.
I can remember years where 016 had ZERO homicides. IN 2010, which is the last year the CPD annual report is available for (almost 4 years to cook the books I guess)there were 5. So yes, I'd like my police too
* I am the commenter that wondered if I read that particular paragraph wrong*
I now see that I did read it wrong. I sometimes get wrapped up in the goofy crap some on this site have to say about areas of the city such as mine, like EVERYONE on the south & west sides are drug dealing gang banging welfare recipients for example, and go in over my head. I apologize SCC.
Illinois is on the same liberal democrat progressive road to ruin as Detroit. This is just Chicago voters getting more of what they want. At some point voters might wake up and try to change things but I wouldn't hold my breath. They will continue to run the state into the ground until there is nothing left. I voted with my feet.
It would be ok for them to get all the cops from the tax paying districts and dumping them in the ghettos to clear them out IF....
The tax payers were allowed to arm themselves!!!!
But no, the idea of the tax paying people allowed to arm themselves is just to scary. Why they may say the big 'WHY?" and "WHY NOT" and act uppity to the glorified appointed authority.
Just can't have that in Capone land.
If the tac units and narcotic hair gels did what they suppose to do the CPD would be fine.
Blaming the NYC guy is b.s already.
When you look at the photos from last weeks shooting why are all those tac people and other civilian dressed in jeans (40)standing around and b.s'ing.An purpose for this ? I thinks the dicks and crime lab had the scene handled.
One would think they should be hitting the area on foot or in their cars.
The hair gel legends with 4-7 yoj rule ! LOL.
And the elite one bag a day narcotic unit with manpower that caused their flooring in their office to shift, what do they really do.
The Supt should about scrap 90 % of narcotics and send these wonders to a beat car.
Please hair gels, reelect your guy Shields when the time comes. Enjoy your 100 dollar retro check in two years and pay more for medical benifits.
The only copper' doing their job are the dick' and they are burning out from the case load they carry.
No wonder so many dick' are getting heart problems for wanting to do the great job they do.

I think it was Hillary that said that help was on the way...oh, wrong city. What difference does it make...?
603pm--Fido To Go, was parked, blocking the crosswalk, making people walk into traffic to get across the street. She MF'd people who complained, she MF'd the copper who was sent out on a 911 call, she MF'd the Sgt she called 911 for demanding a supervisor. She claimed her husband was a CFD firefighter and in the end, was very lucky she didn't get locked up on a citizen complaint for State DC.
I was there.
Coppers in twenty and probably 017 and 019, ought to be obligated to do refreshers for a single period in 003 or 015 or 011 or 009...(though for some it wouldn't even be a refresher, it would be the first time ever)
they wouldn't lose their precious sissy spots. They'd go right back to hiding but maybe they'd be less likely to run their big mouths about nonsense, complaining about nothing, writing decent people for every stupid thing and stop initiating c.r's on other coppers after starting arguments, provoking shit, then crying over name-calling.

Class 13-8 has 24 whole recruits?
O_o? o_o? o_O?
From the mid 80's through the mid 90's there were classes of 100+ or more on a REGULAR basis!
Da fuck is goin' on here?
The taxpayers ought to be setting fire to City Hall and every ass in it.
Rahm's Redistribution of Wealth centers around stealing taxpayer treasure in the guise of Police presence and giving it to m/fers who worship death, destruction and willful ignorance.
Example?
Oxygen thief M/Fer was in E/R with shit in his drawers and a busted big toe because he was wearing FLIP-FLOPS while touting his nation to a carload of other oxygen thieves... It wasn't for lack of effort that they didn't put a missile or three in his ass as he shit himself while knocking his toe nail off trying to get away...
These are the mutts getting YOUR POLICE PRESENCE AND SERVICE!
Stinking of shit and still being gangsta... "Naw! I don't need no m/fin' report!"
The taxpayers ought to be all up in Rahm's narrow ass like cheap tissue for stealing from them.
Yep soon as Dillard or Brady get elected all our problems will be solved. I'm no fan of Quinn, be careful of what you wish for.

"Way to much free money being handed out."
Many would say the same thing about the $80 million plus 'VRI budget," especially considering how productive the cops signing up for it have been with arrests, gun seizures, etc. Don't throw rocks if the glass your throwing it at is on your house.

"...If we continue to have issues in Andersonville, we'll have no choice and to bypass the neighborhood..."
no clue what happened- but as a neighborhood resident- I can attest that the doggie treat truck routinely blocked the corner walk of Berwyn and Clark--across from the busstop always full of illegal parkers in front of the Starbucks---the area could use a good dose of parking enforcement aid or a dedicated officer or police presence
LOL, we don't need more CPD cops but instead we will bring in the National Guard and State Police? WTF?
Safe Passage? My friend from Washington FB me the other and was LOL at the whole concept. "Safe Passage?" She said. "Are you kidding me? Crossing guards are one thing but people manning a rout with cell phones?" I said "I know but they won't hire more cops." We both just laughed. Two more years and I am out of this fucked up city.

All pay three times more in tax , receive no welfare assistance , yet have one beat car for a geographic area that has 3 to 5 beat cars , plus specialized units , officers working special employment to protect gang bangers and drug dealers from killing each other.

That's why there's currently a burglary/home invasion pattern in Sauganash.
Offenders are (2) male blacks. One is 30yrs. old, 6' 3",170 lbs.,grey t-shirt,jeans,possible facial hair. Possibly wearing an orange vest. No description on the other.
One waits in the car while the other rings the bell or knocks on the door. If no response, entry is made by forcing the door or a window.

Meigs Field was plowed under was so his lard ass wife could look good with her friends in "Friends of the Parks." The only high rises near the flight paths were there years before. Mostly it is lake in the path. It was a single runway oriented North-South.
Richy works for the law firm that brokered the deal with the parking meter company. For what they made they can give Richy an office and big leather chair and some dummy work to do. You don't think they would trust any real legal work to Mumbles, do you? It is payback, nothing more, instead of the fat envelopes full of cash, they give him a big paying do-nothing job.
This gov is a fucking complete idiot just like McFuckstick and 4 1/2 fingers (tiny dancer) If he thinks bringing the State Police, National Guard or even the UN onto the city streets of Shitcago is going to stop any of the gang banger killings he's even more stupid than I could have imagined. These jagoff drug dealing assholes can only survive if they push weed, rocks heroin or whatever other drug comes into vogue.

Right. They were just born last month. As soon as they turn 21 they can get hired.
Fact is, we are fucked out there, what rahm and mccarthy have done to this police department will take years to undo.
It will get worse, much worse, lbefore it gets better.
Remember, Rahm has changed the budget, cutting thousands of police officers completely out of the budget. Before, even if we didn't always have full strength, at least we always had the money in the budget so the City could start hiring if/when they needed and decided to actually spend the budgeted amount on the police.
Anonymous said...
But I thought we had enough officers! Isn't that what Rahm and McBeers have been saying all along?
9/22/2013 01:22:00 AM
Not exactly. After cutting budgeted number of officers they declared the police department was at full strength. In their mind, it was, the new, lowered budgeted number.
30 years ago the City responded to an expose by Pam Zekman on beat cars not being manned, The City redrew all beat boundaries creating new, larger beats. Also fewer beats. Fewer but larger.
Than the City declared all beats manned. Similar sleight of hand now,
Like making the trains run on time in Italy, they changed the schedule, voila! Trains then on time.
Fido truck lady ranted. Big deal. Everybody rants here.
she apologized. Over and over.
nobody was making anybody do anything. She was there all summer in that same spot and no one complained, no one had any accidents.
heaven forbid somebody get one over on the city for a few weeks.
no, not when twenty really does have nothing better to do. If there really were that many squads there to issue a lady a parking ticket, it doesn't surprise me since half the coppers in twenty don't know how or when to take police action.
The difference here is the scared coppers are out hunting for easy targets like soccer moms and old women to sandbag so they can keep their management spots on days or afternoons because they are deathly afraid to do their time on midnights just like they were deathly afraid to ever do a single day in a fast district.
Or any district where they would have been laughed at for going by the book on a corn vendor, the guy selling fruit out of a truck, a guy selling socks on a street corner, the guys selling roses, the guys selling peanuts, the guys selling water, the guys selling popsicles, ice cones, panhandling...

Poverty consumes so much mental energy that people struggling to make ends meet often have little brainpower left for anything else, leaving them more susceptible to bad decisions that can perpetuate their situation, according to a study published Thursday in the journal Science.
“Past research has often blamed [poverty] on the personal failings of the poor. They don’t work hard enough; they’re not focused enough,” said University of British Columbia professor Jiaying Zhao,who co-authored the study as a Princeton University graduate student. “What we’re arguing is it’s not about the individual. It’s about the situation.”
As part of the study, researchers conducted experiments on two groups of subjects: low- and middle-income shoppers in a mall in New Jersey, and sugar cane farmers in rural India.
In the mall experiment, shoppers underwent a battery of tests to measure IQ and impulse control. However, half the participants were first given a “teaser” question —what they would do if their car had broken down and needed $1,500 worth of repairs —designed to put a pressing financial concerns at the forefront of their thoughts.
In India, researchers tested the cognitive capacity and decision-making of farmers before the sugar cane harvest, when they were most strapped for money, and afterwards, when they had fewer financial woes.
The results showed that people wrestling with the mental strain of poverty suffered a drop of as much as 13 points in their IQ —roughly the same found in people subjected to a night with no sleep.
“Poverty is the equivalent of pulling an all-nighter,” said Harvard economist Sandhil Mullainathan, another of the study’s authors. “Picture yourself after an all-nighter. Being poor is like that every day.”
Mullainathan said previous research often has assumed that poor people are poor because they are somehow less capable than others, whether inherently or because of past trauma or other environmental factors in their lives. But, he said, what the latest study suggests is that the strain of poverty can tax the cognitive abilities of anyone experiencing it —and that those abilities return when the burden of poverty disappears.
“While the poor may be experiencing a scarcity of money, at some level what they may really be experiencing is a scarcity of bandwidth, of cognitive capacity,” he said. “It’s the situation that’s creating the stress.”
Zhao and Mullainathan said that their findings, if accurate, could have profound implications for public policy.
For starters, policymakers “should beware of imposing cognitive taxes on the poor just as they avoid monetary taxes on the poor,” the paper states. Filling out long forms, deciphering complicated rules or undergoing lengthy interviews can consume scarce cognitive resources.
“You are captured by these monetary issues —how to pay rent, how to pay bills,” Zhao said. “As a result, you’re less attentive to other problems. You neglect other things in life that deserve your attention.”

Omg Fido To Go! I have seen you - you do block crosswalks- and create traffic hell . Wow! Take your liberal rant somewhere else.

The Cook County Sheriffs Police would be thrilled to help you guys. We really do. We wanted to help out with NATO, but because Dart didn't get a engraved silver invitation from your mayor, dart being the narcissistic jag bag that he is didn't allow our department to help you. Trust me, I know, this is the truth.
Now this thing comes up. I know for a fact that your brass want us to help you but again the Sheriff will not lift a finger unless Emanuel gets on his knees begging, eyes skyward towards dart. Just ask Georgias about this if you don't believe me.
Almost 8 years of this SOB Dart. We are the laughing stock of Illinois Law Enforcement. You think you have it bad under Weis, Cline or McCarthy? They clowns can not hold a candle to our clowns.
I am a Police Officer. I always thought I was a pretty good one. I was an FTO and a Detective, now I am back in patrol doing my time until it is time to go. Heck, I even taught Field Force under Jerry Janosz. So I think we (I at least) could have helped you at NATO. I remember a time when we were a damned good department, and had a true "don't fuck with us" reputation. Now that ship has long sailed away. I am surrounded by weak supervisors and traffic Nazis. Next, the Court Bailiffs want to run us, and now we got one of them as our FDC for a week now. Very sad.
You're whole department is traffic nazis. I've seen you clowns hide out in stickney and be quick to pull over a Mexican or soccer mom, but ignore the car full of shitheads that stares you down as they drive by. If we need any help, I don't want anyone from a political army, aka the sheriffs police to have to be trusted to watch my back.
Or any district where they would have been laughed at for going by the book on a corn vendor, the guy selling fruit out of a truck, a guy selling socks on a street corner, the guys selling roses, the guys selling peanuts, the guys selling water, the guys selling popsicles, ice cones, panhandling...

Maybe you missed the memo, but soccer moms and EVERYBODY ELSE are supposed to abide by the law.
I don't WANT the guys selling peanuts and sox and ice cream and roses and water and illegal fruit truck and dog biscuits and panhandling out on the streets in my neighborhood. If I wanted to live in that kind of squalor, I'd move to the ghetto. So, pardon me if I object to the ghetto moving in on my neighborhood.
There's no need for any outside assistance.
Father Faker just held a march. Everything is OK now. Whenever there's a march against violence, things turn out OK. That's the ghetto response to things. Have a march and chant simple rhymes while your holy man is out front.
Savages.
What a fake POS that man is , have another basketball game cause that's all your flock understands right. How about some parenting classes you media hog asshole, how about you go stand on one of the "dope boy" corners over there by your "church" and proclaim your there to stop violence. How about you do SOMETHING ANYTHING yea thats what I thought you fake Jesse clone. ya got nothing...............
1.02pm,,,,go fuck yourself.....just because you are stuck in some shithole, don't paint all 020 officers with a pussy brush.
She parked her homemade doggy treat food truck (a step van) on the crosswalk, blocking the handicapeed curb cut, at Berwyn/Clark which has heavy foot and vehicle traffic on the weekends.
She MF's several citizens that asked her to move off the corner--they called 911 as a parker with a disturbance. She MF'd the officers who got the job. She MF'd the Sergeant who showed up after she called 911. She was looking for a supervisor to take take her side and didn't. She kept dropping that her husband was CFD (as if that would mean something if push came to shove)
She's really lucky we really didn't go by the book, arrest her, impound the truck and get a city inspector all over her operation.
I was there, the coppers showed total respect to the woman in the face of her four letter aria in front of coppers, citizens and little kid citizens.
Get a life truck driver POS if you were legit then they " the police" would not mess with you get your shit squared away and you won't have any problems. I don't need a criminals support to do my job of locking up or ticketing said pos UP .
GHETTO MIL VET COPPER WITH ACUA NET
We need some Old School Cop spirit back on this job but that is exactly what Weis and McNumbnuts were brought into destroy.

Easy there John Wayne. See how well the "Old School Spirit" keeps you out of Federal civil rights court
Let me know how that works out for you.
"Even if they did then what's the long term solution -- A military state?"
CPD is already an army of occupation in the ghetto. What will change?

Who thought up that disgusting name? It conjures up thoughts that make me want to hurl.

Fido truck lady ranted. Big deal. Everybody rants here.
she apologized. Over and over.
nobody was making anybody do anything. She was there all summer in that same spot and no one complained, no one had any accidents.
heaven forbid somebody get one over on the city for a few weeks.
no, not when twenty really does have nothing better to do. If there really were that many squads there to issue a lady a parking ticket, it doesn't surprise me since half the coppers in twenty don't know how or when to take police action.
The difference here is the scared coppers are out hunting for easy targets like soccer moms and old women to sandbag so they can keep their management spots on days or afternoons because they are deathly afraid to do their time on midnights just like they were deathly afraid to ever do a single day in a fast district.
Or any district where they would have been laughed at for going by the book on a corn vendor, the guy selling fruit out of a truck, a guy selling socks on a street corner, the guys selling roses, the guys selling peanuts, the guys selling water, the guys selling popsicles, ice cones, panhandling...

Hey Monday morning QB, what would you do if your "corn vendor" started MF'ing YOU?
Give him a pass?
You weren't there,but seem more than willing to take the side of some a-hole over the Police.
Next, the Court Bailiffs want to run us, and now we got one of them as our FDC for a week now. Very sad.
Stop trying to divide the department, you all came from courts or jail and everyone knows you need serious juice for CCSPD.
BTW, SCC what happened to the two outlets for Cook Sheriff's 19th Ward Blog and The County Guy.
Can you get a sub-forum on here for us.
How do you know I wasn't there?
I suppose wherever you work, you suddenly decide to do some work when someone motherfucks you.
hm.
And I suppose my example of the thousands of other vendors went over your crew cut.
try working in districts 002 thru 015 and come down on the air for an illegal vendor.
Matter of fact, if you wanna talk about blocking traffic and citizen complaints and motherfucking people, funny how the same call comes out in twenty almost everyday for the bustout blocking the intersection at the end of lsd... people describe him doing exactly that but because he scares you more than a woman selling dog cookies, he's still there.
It's like everyone I talk to wants to do nothing.
There is no was the ISP will be able to help, they are at minimum levels as it is, with about 1,800 total troopers. They may have 1 troop for 100 miles of road these days. Gone are the days when the ISP had 2,500 troopers. Manpower is so short, patrols may go unmanned. Even the Tollway, which has deep pockets, is at minimum levels for troopers. Quinn is a moron.
Yeah We DefinitelY Don't Want Cook County Correctional Officers Working On The Street. I UsedTo Work There And I Would Sometimes Wonder If I Was At A Bbq In The Hood Or Some SHit Because Some Of The Officers Are Just As Bad As The Inmates.BringingIn Food,CellPhones,Cigarettes, And Shit . All DayLong I Would See Officers Pounding Fists With Inmates Or Doing Handshakes. TheyKnow How To Jail But Don't Know A Damn Thing About Police Work Even Though Most Of ThEm Think/Say They Are. I've HearD Co`S Refer To Themselves As Cops Plenty Of Times

I wish I knew what an FDC was.
