Englewood Gunman Shot

  • Chicago police shot a man they said had been walking around the neighborhood waving a gun and was found standing on a balcony with a gun to his head.

    An officer shot the man, in his mid-20s, about 10 p.m. just north of 61st Street on Sangamon Avenue in the Englewood neighborhood.

    He was on a balcony with a gun to his head when an Englewood District sergeant tried to talk him down, Fraternal Order of Police Spokesman Patrick Camden said.

    The man told police they'd have to shoot him if they wanted him to drop the weapon and started lowering it toward the sergeant, Camden said.

    A separate officer who set up opposite the sergeant opened fire, hitting the man in his side, Camden said. Camden said the man told police that he didn't need help getting into the ambulance or to wear handcuffs, since he had been shot before.
Cops are all okay.

Is this a weekly thing?

This was no "man" that got shot. It was the byproduct/waste of a fucked up reimbursement society that nobody wants to acknowledge, and one that nobody knows how to fix. These "men" will continue this behavior for decades. It's not going to end. No parents + no role models + no education + no rules = mayhem. We must all be fucking retards to think this can continue.....be safe officers, it's not your fault society is fucked up.

Chicago Extends Lollapalooza Deal Through 2021, Tax Breaks For Promoters Pulled

Mar. 15, 2012

"The Chicago Park District and C3 Presents, promoters for Lollapalooza, agreed to a new contract yesterday that will keep the annual festival in Grant Park through 2021.

"With the new deal, C3 will be required for the first time to pay amusement and liquor taxes to the city, which could mean millions more in revenue for the city's coffers.

"The tax exemption has come under closer scrutiny as C3's profits from the festival have skyrocketed.

"Last summer, Mayor Rahm Emanuel called for an independent investigation of the deal brokered in part by Mark Vanecko, a nephew of former Mayor Richard M. Daley. (Emanuel's brother Ari is chairman of William Morris Endeavor, a co-owner of Lollapalooza with C3.) A January proposal by the Cook County Board of Commissioners would have required C3 to get their approval to have tax exempt status...."

Emanuel was just running around the SXSW music festival in Austin, TX, home town of C3. All safe, all cozy. $$$ ka-ching! $$$ ka-ching!

If Ladner is gone that's good news, that lady has done horrible things to officers. She lets harassment take place at work by protecting the at fault party and laughs about it. Also, policies to undermine federal law when it comes to military soldiers. Goes out of her way to mess with others. Worst HR manager ever, with all her unethical activities, she shouldn't have quit and should of been fired a long time ago.

Why, because no matter who it is we took a very clear oath when we took this job. Most of us knew that there we good and bad, but you treat everyone with respect until they give you a reason not to get it. We serve everyone from a millionaire to an addict who is sleeping in a cardboard box. Many may say I'm a fucking idiot, but being a cop, fireman or paramedic is more than just a job. It is a career that you have to want to do. It is not for fame or glory, but personal satisfaction. The main things every cop should follow is show everyone respect, if they are respecting you. Treat everyone the same way you would treat a close friend or family member. Never treat people like you are above them because you wear a uniform. The impression you leave on a person is how they look at every member of this department. Lastly, even when you stop somebody, don't verbally abuse them. Used to ask everyone I ever stopped when I would search them, if they had any guns, knives, bombs or hand grenades on them. Also told them why I sopped them and apologized when they were clear.

But that is the job. Can't be anything but a racist and egotist, feel free to move on to another career. But even the bangers gave me respect and always left when I told them we received a loitering call. The y would always say hi to me when I was driving by. Plus for the respect and trust, used to get great info on many crimes.

I never really cared if criminals liked me and I solved plenty of crimes without their help. What is wrong with you that you crave the love of the scum of the earth?


Seriously, I can't understand this. You are the law. All they need to understand is they go to jail if you catch them dirty. How we choose to do that is our business, not yours.

Never said I cared if they liked me or not. Crave the love of scumbags, never. Also never had a problem arresting the assholes when they fucked up.

Just said, we took an oath, now follow it. I really see how the gel heads act like total assholes and MF everybody. I don't say give everybody a hug, just don't treat everyone like shit.

Great story officer is ok and the perp is in custody. I applaud those few who chose to help and acted so bravely. Unfortunately, the officer's badge and cell phone were taken from the scene. Could've been a perfect story. I laugh at the wimps who were recording the incident... Guess the service they pay for with their money to protect and serve is less important than a nice video clip on the Internet.
