Half a Dozen Shot
A cool Monday afternoon, crisp even. Punctuated by the sound of gunfire:
- Five people were wounded this afternoon and early evening in separate shootings on the South Side in the city's Englewood and Grand Crossing neighborhoods.
And another wounding during school hours in 010. Just a typical Chicago morn.

If they find these Offenders let's hope they do not face Judge Brown for any bond hearings.
Dear diary,
It's been a few days since I was able to write down my thoughts but life in 019 has been crazy! First off a couple days ago XO M.R. took a monumental dump and blew up the pipes so the entire station has smelled like booze laden diharrea for days. New station my butt! Secondly they keep giving me jobs! I've handled car alarm calls 99 so many times I lose track! The horrible part is I am trying to study for the sergeants test and these people are bothering me! Some guy came up to my cruiser and knocked on my window. Boy I'll tell you I now know what it must have been like in Vietnam because he startled me something good. Normally I maintain a full tactical state of alertness but I was reading the order on proper display of awards and was so engrossed that he slipped past my danger zone. I think a little stinky gas may have spritzed out. I rolled the window down and the guy tells me that there is a coyote chasing rabbits over in the park. I'm like "isn't that what they are supposed to do?" The guy then asks me what I'm going to do about it, I told him if have to look up the general order on coyotes. Problem is there is no order on coyotes. The guy asks me if I can call someone who does know what to do and I'm like "dude, the Chicago police department isn't equipped to handle this or there would be an order on it" he says well do something about it the coyote is carrying away a rabbit now. So I drove off. My god these people just ask too much of me!
That's some funny shit, I feel the same way when these dumb ass officers call for a sgt in the air
I'm like dumb ass hit me on my cell like you do when ur dumb ass is running late or want to go home early.
I come to work to relax and take it easy but this damn district is too busy .
He'll I'm ready to retire after 12 years
WTF
And a little dust up at the electricians union meeting means more unhappy union members.
All this gun violence is just a sign that strict gun laws are needed. Without them Chicago is going to turn into the Wild West, nothing but a modern day Dodge City.

Silly officer; that guy WAS from Vietnam and he was hungry. He wanted you to do his hunting for him and catch the coyote so he could make dinner!
And don't be disrespecting Mike R! His great great grand uncle on his father's side gave his name to the Dan Ryan Expressway so give some respect! His name was Irving Expressway and his father changed the family name to R. er, you know what it is. Anyway, the kids were getting pushed around for having a funny sounding name like Expressway so Dad changed it so people would think he was connected to some former insignificant political puke.
Do you need some good coyote recipes?
After a very quiet Sunday, a total of 8 people were shot yesterday with another one shot early this morning. Today's forecast calls for ideal shooting conditions.
40 total shootings (4 dead) so far this month.

Yawn, just another day. It is sad however that when you see the headlines it doesn't faze you anymore.
The folks in Englewood should flee to Madison, Wisconsin and proclaim that they are "refugees from the mean streets of Chicago".
The taxpayers of that City will then welcome them with open arms.
heard from 35 th the new DSS order is about to come out. in the order, the DSS position will be filled by sergeants only. under no circumstances will a Lt. ever act as DSS. if available, Lts will be designated as filed Lts. Couple that with the fact that no Lt will ever be assigned as XO, there is now a needless rank in the department. A watch can operate without a field Lt, which means that other than feeding the exempt ranks and captains ranks, there is no real use for Lts, who are now suddenly in surplus. Don't expect a class anytime soon with the rank likely to go to appointment only, much cheaper with no lawsuits. They say the current list has already been scrapped.

Dear God, you are funny as hell. Keep it up. This blog is a place to go to relieve some stress and to be entertained. I am glad that despite it all, some people have not lost their sense of humor. In life, we can choose to: laugh, cry or complain. I choose to laugh.
Just when you thought IL couldn't get dumber....
Gov Potato Head steps in some shit:
(CBS) — Illinoisans with a felony on their records will no longer be asked about their criminal past when they apply for state jobs.
Promoting the decision to what he calls “Ban the Box,” State Rep. LaShawn K. Ford (D-Chicago) says the governor’s administrative order doesn’t mean private employers will be required to hire ex-cons. It simply means applications for state government jobs will no longer include a box indicating whether an applicant has pled guilty, or been convicted of a criminal offense, other than a minor traffic violation.
http://chicago.cbslocal.com/2013/10/07/governor-bars-employers-from-asking-applicants-about-felony-records/
So now felons at the DMV can pass on you home address. Or even better, felons can get access to your FOID card! YA! Sure hope Potato Head gets allot of the felon vote
and it goes on and on...we are stuck with liberal leaders that wont dare speak the truth.instead, we get tear-jerking speeches,marches,pissed away $$$$ and fingers pointed in the wrong directions.im also bored with the'' what are the police gonna do?''questions.
O.T. Off Duty New York Officer Involved In SUV Beat Down
This is the kind of stuff that gets me pissed as an officer. How do you hang out with known thugs? Then pull a man out of his car and beat him down like a rag doll? This NYPD police officer deserves to be charged and lose his freedom.

dont be in a rush to go to Northwestern.....
http://ireport.cnn.com/docs/DOC-1046349
Why would a bright and promising cardiologist be fired from the University hospital that she had practiced at since 2000?
Apparently, protecting her patients is grounds for dismissal. At least, that is the case at Northwestern University in Illinois.
Despite being promoted to Valve Director in 2006, Dr. Nalini M. Rajamannan was terminated in 2008 after reporting the use of non-FDA approved, experimental medical devices being implanted in patients without their knowledge.
The doctor conducting these human experiments, Dr. Patrick McCarthy, was testing his own inventions, an IMR annuloplasty device and a Myxo annuloplasty device manufactured by Edwards Lifescience.
These devices had not been approved by the FDA and even now, many patients have no idea that they have these experimental devices in their bodies.

As usual most Democrats do not want gun laws enforced on their constituents, but instead call for more gun laws to punish the good, defenseless taxpayers of Illinois.
Tougher gun law proposals trigger call for caution
44 minutes ago • Kurt Erickson Lee Springfield Bureau
SPRINGFIELD | One of Illinois’ top Democrats says the state’s shaky fiscal condition must be considered when lawmakers take up debate on Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s plan to require tougher prison sentences for gun crimes.
A proposal to increase the minimum amount of time gun-toting criminals spend behind bars could be debated when the General Assembly convenes for the fall veto session in two weeks.
Senate President John Cullerton shares Emanuel’s interest in addressing violent crime, but is still evaluating the legislation.
“Even as the state's fiscal condition improved, we have not reached a point where additional costs can be overlooked,” Rikeesha Phelon, spokesman for the Chicago Democrat said Monday.
The concept, designed to crack down on gun violence in the state’s largest city, would add 3,860 inmates to the state’s already overcrowded prison system, the Illinois Department of Corrections estimates.
That surge would require more space for inmates than is currently available, as well as more than $700 million in additional operational costs, the agency says.
“Based on current inmate population, IDOC does not have sufficient capacity to take on another 3,860 inmates,” Corrections spokesman Tom Shaer noted Monday. “The state would need to build at least one prison.”
Shaer did not have an estimate on how many additional prison guards would be needed.
“Hundreds of new employees, to be sure,” he noted.

Target slashes attacker with knife on Chicago Riverwalk
Posted: Oct 08, 2013 9:38 AM CST
CHICAGO (FOX 32 News) -
A man who tried to attack two people near the Chicago Riverwalk got more than he bargained for Monday night, when one of his targets fended off his attack by slashing him with a knife.
The two were near the entrance of the riverwalk, near 2 E. Wacker Drive, when the 31-year-old man verbally confronted them about 10:45 p.m., police said
Words quickly turned to action when the 31-year-old attacked, only to be fended off when one of the two pulled out a knife and cut his attacker.
The wounded man was taken to Northwestern Memorial Hospital with cuts to his chest and face, police said. He was listed in good condition, but refused to cooperate with investigators.
The two people who fended off his attack were initially taken into custody. But police said they will not likely be charged because they do not believe the two instigated the attack.
How is lil Tommy waldera doing so far in 024?? Shaky? Good? Horrible? Etc.... Remember it's chess not checkers, he says that a lot..must be a big fan of the movie training day or thinks he is the white Denzel Washington??
CRIME IS DOWN! YOU ARE SAFE! stop spreading lies... lol
Enough, time to put every tact and gang unit into those problem districts to clear this up. They don't need such units in 016,017, 019,020,022, and 025. Enough of just bringing in weed pinches. .
019 dist. dog, you funny........lol
Meanwhile...
(CBS) — Illinoisans with a felony on their records will no longer be asked about their criminal past when they apply for state jobs.
Promoting the decision to what he calls “Ban the Box,” State Rep. LaShawn K. Ford (D-Chicago) says the governor’s administrative order doesn’t mean private employers will be required to hire ex-cons.
It simply means applications for state government jobs will no longer include a box indicating whether an applicant has pled guilty, or been convicted of a criminal offense, other than a minor traffic violation.
“Formerly incarcerated individuals shouldn’t face a life sentence of no job prospects and no opportunities to better themselves just because they have served time in prison,” Governor Quinn said. “These new laws will help them get back on their feet, contribute to their communities and keep one offense from becoming a life-long barrier.”
Senate Bill 1659, sponsored by State Senator Patricia Van Pelt (D-Chicago) and State Representative Arthur Turner (D-Chicago), increases the income tax credit for those who hire qualified ex-offenders from a cap of $600 to a maximum of $1,500 per employee.
It also allows the tax credit to be valid if an ex-offender is hired within three years of being released from incarceration, rather than the current deadline of one year
Forget playing by the rules. Forget living a clean life. Just go to prison and your chances of getting a state job are the same as law abiding people.
Private employers are now incentivised to hire ex-cons over law abiding folks
Moral of the story: in Illinois, Crime pays
It's too bad so many people of color are dying in the streets of Chicago. We need common sense gun control.
That is the standard line by the liberals. Why is it that in other parts of our country people are armed to their teeth. Yet they don't shoot each other left and right? Also anyone think this is all by design? If they wanted to really make sure thugs don't get their hands on guns then they could easily make the criminal penalties stiffer. But they don't.
Fatal stabbing in 019 as well.
Again its members of the black community disproportinatly actin da fool.

Classic! Thank you sir/ma'am for making my day!
OT:
So Emanuel is changing the rules for Retirees health insurance benefits right away...not waiting to see how the court case goes. Rather, he is increasing the monthly amount Retirees must pay for their health insurance. Yet, he markets the promotion of the Illegal Immigration Plan to pass which will cost our taxpayers millions and billions of dollars in payment for Illegals healthcare and more. This has nothing to do with healthcare or insurance or adjusting to society's issues or for the Natural Wave of legal immigration...this is to garner votes, only votes...he'll run the city pocket-book dry to get the vote...and so will Quinn and the other state keepers.
Remember this, a one party system is no good. Folks will rule the day.
Hey SCC: Could you PLEASE keep 3:50 AM from posting. Seems like a young boy with under 7 yrs OTJ who thinks he knows everything. Maybe an ass whopping would straight JR. out like a lot of these young "coppers." 3rd watch in 022 just know how to lock up other coppers. Sgts great too. Paybacks a bitch. Some day
I love 019 District Dog. Hilarious! I work in 019, and he/she nailed it. Lol.
who cares. sgts test is in just about three weeks... If you need me I will be studying... and yes, contrary to what the lazy on here claim because they dont want to study, if you get a good score and score in the top 300 you will get made. But they lazy just blame it on "corruption" and "study groups" and people having the test before hand.. yawwwnnnnnn. If you didnt make sgt blame yourself for not knowing it forward and backwards. Dont blame merit etc. If you are serious, study and live this stuff until the test comes. If you score number one then I guess there is nothing the dept can tell you saying you wont get it. I cant wait until the new list comes out and they start making sgts.. the dogs will be running rampant with crying, pointing fingers and blaming everyone else except themselves for not knowing the go/so. if i do bad and I score 700 then so be it...its only my fault. thats how it goes. study and score good.. the only option.

Please elaborate. I've been in 022 many, many years & although I'm not on 3rd watch, I'd love to hear your story.
If we all stuck together it would be great time for everyone to boycott the ot for the marathon leave the city with no one working fuck the mayor and this drunk super they wouldn't no what to do if no one showed up
the sgt's. promotional process is as a legitimate as.....a) the CPD as a whole; b) Chicago city government; c) the Obama administration.....meaning, if you are here now, get out while you can
The Sgt test questions are made by supervisors who are active on this job. These questions have to be approved by the law dept. and the Sgts assoc. So if you think there are not friends of these people who have seen the questions, you are a fool. Also who prints the 5,000 tests? You are telling me that a few copies don't go to a friend of a friend?

Is Tactical Barbie back from Motorola already? Are super Alpha Girls Ray Ray and Masters Masters Masters far behind?
There is no G.O. on coyotes. But there is a Special Order.
Officers handling coyote calls will,
1. Don the appropriate seasonal Road Runner uniform.
2. Begin to run at a speed that will make his legs appear
to form a circular motion.
3. Run to the nearest cliff and cause said coyote to run
off same.
3. a. In lieu of a cliff, officers will lead said coyote to a tall
building where a large anvil will be deployed to
eradicate the coyote.
5. Complete an information report with the original
forwarded to G. Elmer McFudd.
I'm busy studying for the promotion test. NO crime here!

Sorry, but I live in 022 and would like to get the police service I pay ridiculous taxes for. The vast majority of the residents in the areas where these shootings take place can't stand the police and are freeloaders. Why send our police officers there, at the expense of the decent people in the districts you feel should be stripped of their manpower.
You're an idiot!

06:08am... you mean the south and west side may look like dodge city I have news for you it has been that way since before I came on the job 43 yrs. ago and it will continue to be that way as far as we can see into the future since those guns moved in it will never be the same. My father who worked out there in the 40's till 90's observed the guns driving into town getting off trains and wandering into our city limits invited here by the democrats there were all kinds chrome plated blued etc. they set up shop and were given booze and money to vote democratic damn guns crawling on their barrels and grips sometimes vote 2-3 times these steel and wood criminals sought to take over the south and west sides and did it now they want everything damn guns not a brain amongst them.
This 019th dist. dog says:
Numerous officers have been banned by the XO from working at 019 East 850 w. addison, and now have to work at 019 west, Area Nroth, Belmont and Western, whatever it's being called these days. Seems a Sgt. who was asked about wether he possessed testicles and was then told to go ahead and tell the XO, happy stash, did exactly that. Now the officer is banned from working 019 East. Seems the XO blew yet another gasket after getting into a screaming match with the Commander in which his significant other who WAS the commanders secretary got dumped. Well now she's a 019 dist. dog as well working at Lane Tech the XO' s alma mater, on the school detail. I could go one but my latte is ready, decafof course..... oh wait a minute " yea squad 19-p that disturbance," " I know i was on it for an hour but hey its 019 " ......ok now I can have my latte.....
They were just angry over a lack of fresh vegetables. The neighborhood will quiet down after the whole foods opens.
