Aldrecreature Calls Out McJersey; Rahm Agrees

Is McStreetlightAssassin on the chopping block? Or is Rahm pandering to a voting monolith?
  • Mayor Rahm Emanuel said Thursday he agrees with Ald. Carrie Austin (34th) that an avalanche of police statistics showing a reduction in homicides and shootings mean “crap” if people don’t feel safe.

    One day after a verbal broadside from one of the City Council’s most influential African-American aldermen, Emanuel refused to return fire.

    In fact, the mayor agreed with Austin, who unloaded on Police Superintendent Garry McCarthy when asked how she felt about Chicago’s first homicide of 2014 occurring in the Far South Side’s Roseland community she represents.

    “I talked to Carrie. . . . Everything she said — in one way or another in different words — I’ve said and I agree with,” said Emanuel, whose popularity has dropped among black voters who helped put him in office because of persistent crime and school closings.
We're pretty sure we started saying that exact same thing back when J-Fled was pretending to be able to run a metropolitan police department:
  • The perception of crime is what matters, not the actual statistics
If, as aldercreature Austin says...
  • “Don’t tell me about no statistics of McCarthy’s. You say, `Well, statistically, we’re down. That means crap to me when I know that someone else has been shot,” she said.
 ....then all of this CompStat nonsense is exactly that - nonsense. Austin probably knows more than a few people who got shot in her ward. It's a violent hellhole. And CompStat numbers are little comfort to the people living there. McCarthy is saying "crime is down" and their eyes and ears are telling them another murder happened within a mile of their apartment, three more got shot and the little old lady down the block was the fourth robbery victim that they know about?

Voters smell bullshit. We've pointed out bullshit. But the media praises McGoof's as the inventor of modern policing, Rahm accepts the ass-kissing for his supposed brilliance until the polling numbers start falling and suddenly everyone is picking up on what our readers have been telling us for five years now?

The whole scenario was orchestrated for maximum political benefit for the alderwhatever and the mayor.

Rahm needs Garry to be gone.
He also needs to regain the black vote.
Carrie needs cred, so she 'appears' to be calling out the man and the machine.

Everybody who matters, wins. Garry was going, anyway. Now he gets to be a sacrificial lamb.

Everybody knows that 2012 reflected a exceptional increase in violent crimes and murders. Because Chicago had a "normal" year in 2013, the crime stats make it appear that crime dropped in 2013.

It only make sense that Garry McCarty makes his move from Chicago on a high note with this B.S. reduction in 2013 crime stats.

If Garry McCarthy would stay, crime can only go back up and he would no longer be able to bang his chest on how HE and HE ALONE decreased Chicago crime.

Odds are that McCarthy will be leaving VERY SOON before the warm weather comes and violent crimes and murders shoot back up.

Well Carrie, will you support the police in doing aggressive police work? That includes stopping people to question them
even if they're innocent. Making traffic stops, issuing a barrage of citations. Towing cars including impounding for trivial things as sound amplification, cannabis possession and Dui. I'm going to say probably not. All talk Carrie, just stick to brow beating McGoof.

Mr McCarthy has taken resources paid for by all the taxpayers and put most of them into the ghetto to keep criminal gang members from killing each other. He has left the taxpayers unprotected all too prove (and to sell) his COMPSTAT theory. That is his crime.

Mr. Emmanuel (and Daley) decided they wanted to spend money elsewhere and let the ranks of the Department dwindle. This was dangerous to the officers and citizens alike. That was his crime.

Mr Emmanuel and Mr McCarthy continue to lie to us about the City being safer because crime is down. Nonsense! Tell that to the shopkeepers and tourists downtown. Tell that to the Dr. that was stabbed in a bathroom, and the women accosted up north who were sexually assaulted. Tell that to the senior with the bullet hole in his foot on Astor Street.

Crime is down because there are less officers there to take your report of crime, period! Murders are down because we have spent all our efforts to keep gangbangers from killing each other. Is this a good strategy? Is this what YOU want as a taxpayer.

On Election Day and the day after we used to arrest gangbangers with up to five or six voter receipts in their pockets. It wasn't because they were picking up litter.

I don't think it changed with the early voting program.

Cops on the other hand don't vote.
So who are the politicians going to support. Maybe they will have a fully funded Felon Pension Program.

Let the Public Beware, because this is the foundation of every police bureaucratic scam going back to the Clinton 100,000 new cops, and all of the Community Policing bullshit! Let the public have meetings with Police, a couple of scream outs, free sandwiches, put some house mice in a position to "respond" to your calls and Perception Rules. This is the theory of the Democrat Party; PERCEPTION BECOMES REALITY! Despite the fact that reduced police presence means you are more likely to be robbed, raped murdered or killed by criminals or illegals driving uninsured or underinsured motorists. This is what the Demorat Party is all about, FEEL GOOD, PERCEPTION!

Solutions:

The Black community has to get their shit together and realize that as a community they will never advance in society until the black man takes responsibility for fathering a child and black female babies stop having babies. Is the black community the only ethic community with that problem? No, but the fact is it is -- epidemic -- in the black community.

Bring back manufacturing to Chicago. When you net it all out buying goods from abroad that were once made here are the most expensive goods of all. The tax multiplyer effect of local manufacturing is the conduit by which a community is sustained and Roads, Schools, Bridges, Police & Fire, etc. are maintained. Stop shipping jobs abroad and stop making it impossible and costly to do business here. Look at the advances WI, IN and OH have made in this area.

Immigration -- legal immigration -- is what helped make America great. As a Sanctuary City, however, Chicago loses by virtue of the crime and drain on the limited financial resources. I do not believe illegal aliens, as a whole, contribute more to the community then the cost.

Allow police to police. Since politicians have been coddling the gangbanger vote, crime has soared.

None of this fits with the Chicago Way or socialist agenda of Emanuel, Axelrod, et.al.,but hopefully a critical mass in Black Chicago will realize the need to walk off the liberal Democrat plantation and start raising their kids to speak, English, Read and Write and not walk the street with their ass hanging out of their pants.

White Chicago can get their heads out of their asses and vote in a real Reganite Republican for Mayor.

It is clear the black alderman want a black superintendent and that might happen prior to the upcoming mayoral election. And, I am thinking a black police leader from the outside. But, do you really think that this will make much of a difference in crime in this town or any difference? If you do you are fooling yourself. Only the hiring of about 2 thousand more cops would make a difference and that will not happen. Blacks kill each other in record numbers all over the country and the only answer of a black alderman it to blame the police. And, if there is a black police super crime will most certainly be magically controlled. It sure is not working for Ramsey in Philly or anywhere else for that matter. NY with 30,000 cops and a lesser % of blacks in the city can bring huge resources to bear on just about anything. this is just grasping at straws and the usual racial crap out of a political leader.

Bratten is now the commissioner of police in NY, again. When he left NY and Daley was looking for a super, Bratten famously said that he would never come to Chicago because of the politics. Bratten is the one who recommended McCarthy to Rahm. If McCarthy is sacrificed for political reasons, it would be a mistake. No one will do better. Do you really believe that any of the superintendents that were appointed under Daley did better? Better for the citizens, better for the cops? Politics is too entrenched in this town, especially racial politics. The black political class has been crying for a black superintendent of police for years now. They want the power back and it is now starting to look like they will get it.

Chicago citizen and taxpayer here. Happy someone is finally speaking out from the council about what we all have known for a while. That numbers and data mean nothing to the citizens throughout the entire city who see and hear of crimes on a daily basis many of whom are crime victims.

When is the mayor going to realize he has to add more police? Current strategies are not working. We don't even see a patrol car in our neighborhood anymore. I often wonder if an emergency comes up will the police respond?

I won't go out after dark during any time of the year because I do not feel safe. What kind of quality of life is this where you have to watch every thing you do when outside for fear something will happen to you?

I even dread picking up my child from our local park program because I have to pass trouble areas to get there and this is in a better part of the city. Forget about letting them walk in better weather because of the gangs.

The mayor acts like a tough guy so how about going to war on the gangs? Pull in whatever you need including the guard to back up the police. Let the police be the police. I don't care if the tourism dollar takes a hit for a while. Eventually, we'll be like Detroit. How many tourists will come here then? What will that do to your tourism dollars? I'm tired of living like this. Most law abiding citizens would support the guard coming in until new police are added. There are huge sums of money available for other things but not our safety.

And we need stiffer laws and harsher judges who do their job right. Too many of judges are appointed by political favor and this must stop. Lock up these punks. The only fear on the street now is from our citizens. Afraid to go about their daily businessat any time of the day or night.

Wake up Chicago.and start letting your voices be heard at city hall. Our alderman and mayor need to be put on notice that things must change for the better now.

Thats right Carrie...blame the police, blame the mayor, blame everyfuuckingbody but those that need to hear it. Someone should ask carrie about her handling of the case where in the suburbs with one of her Lemuels got a mover in her city car in the suburbs (she has 3 kids named lemuel) riding in it in 2010. Or how she called 022 bitching about some of one of the Lemuels friends getting parkers around her shithole of a house around the same time. She said they were being profiled. When asked if the cars were really illegally parked her response? Yea, but the pooolice should be doing more important stuff.

come on Carrie....tell us about how Roseland is being invaded by the white devil and the white man is killing and shooting and robbing everybody. I spent time in 005 and 022 (her ward straddles the tow districts) and EVERY time some asshole got pinched for a shooting he was from the next block or two streets over. Hey Carrie, thats your kids shooting and robbing your constituents.

Here's another one Carrie...lets pull up the statistics on burglary, robbery and auto theft arrests from 022 and see how many of the offenders came from YOUR COMMUNITY. Then we will look at the same stats for 005 and see how many of the arrestees came from Beverly or Mt. Greenwood. Or Norwood Park or the Northwest side. Don't bother. It's ZERO.

Carrie, the reason that your community is so fucked up is because of the bad people who live there and commit the crimes, graffiti the walls, toss garbage from windows and piss on street corners. I know that there are also good people there, working people and kids that WANT an education or improve their lot in life. But until you and the other supposed leaders in the community stop bullshitting themselves and the residents nothing will change.

I am so glad that I am retired and I feel bad for the coppers out there who have to put up with this shit. I wouldn't blame McCarthy one bit if he left. He's handcuffed here, if he goes back to NY at least he will have the backing of the Mayor and his Chief. He's made some mistakes, no doubt but he is on a sinking ship.

His response was, "the commander says I am doing a great job, I am articulate and control my troops" Now the bad attitude had to come out of me. I told him on the radio, shut up fool, quit your jibber jabber, don't make me mad!!!!!!!! The only job your doing is tying up the radio, you sound like and ass and your gonna get someone hurt one day.

Bratten is now the commissioner of police in NY, again. When he left NY and Daley was looking for a super, Bratten famously said that he would never come to Chicago because of the politics. Bratten is the one who recommended McCarthy to Rahm. If McCarthy is sacrificed for political reasons, it would be a mistake. No one will do better. Do you really believe that any of the superintendents that were appointed under Daley did better? Better for the citizens, better for the cops? Politics is too entrenched in this town, especially racial politics. The black political class has been crying for a black superintendent of police for years now. They want the power back and it is now starting to look like they will get it.

So, he will waste money now so he can look good to the public, but he will take your pension later. No one to blame but yourself, you greedy SOB's.

Take advantage of VRI, Special, overtime, school reimbursement ; yes even Lewis, Calumet, because in the end THEY really don't give a fuck!!!

Same guys working VRI want to know why specialized Units cant get premium pay like D2 D2a. Reason is as long as there are volunteers(chumps) the city will never give premium pay to a specialized unit people are breaking the door down to volunteer for. VRI chumps are cutting their own throat and will be the loudest when their pension is gone because they enabled the city to get by without hiring additional coppers to pay into the pension fund.
