Darn Those Cameras

  • In an Eyewitness News exclusive, another high profile politician's SUV is caught by Chicago's speed cameras. It comes after we first revealed Mayor Rahm Emanuel's motorcade racked up nearly two dozen red light and speed camera tickets.

    The I-Team tracked Cook County Board President Toni Preckwinkle's vehicle and went to the city's website to see whether the president's personal protectors follow the same rules as the rest of us. Her vehicle has been cited for speeding more often than the mayor's cars. His cars had more red light tickets. And like the mayor, her official vehicle has so many violations, it's eligible for the boot.
Unlike Rahm though, Preckwinkle's people actually paid two of the tickets. Two! That must mean she's eligible to be mayor.

Glad to hear she is paying the tickets. After all, it is "For The Children! (TM)"

So one government body pays a fine to another government body. I guess it keeps the people in the accounting department employed.

But Preckwinkle should be mayor, she's black! That's her only qualification and unfortunately, in Chicago and Cook County, that appears to be enough. I bet her life is really in jeopardy, even more than Rahm, I mean, she's such a high profile target? She is the President of the Cook County Board, she is exempt from any rules you working peons have to follow. After all, a terrorist might try to abduct her.

I understand that the City and County have ordered hundreds of license plate deflectors to install on the politicians cars in order to avoid being caught on camera by the media

When she pays them all and her "driver" is fired, I'll be satisfied.

The president of the Cook County Board has bodyguards? Needs bodyguards?
What in the world kind of county needs bodyguards for its Board?

I've posted this before, but here's one more time for the media.

A number of months ago, I'm coming out of City Hall walking to the plaza across the street.

Across the street, I see a black SUV, sitting parked and pointed southbound.

Suddenly, it pulls in to traffic crossing the lanes of traffic, travels a few car lengths and parks right in front of the City Hall entrance. The SUV just missed taking out a couple of cars as the driver pulled that stunt.

Driver gets out and crosses the front of the SUV to open the passenger side door as Preckwinkle walks past me and gets in.

Why did the driver do that?

By his driving, evidently, he was in a hurry to get that SUV to the other side, fast.

Again, in doing so he just lucked out not hitting a couple of cars.

I mean why couldn't he of stayed parked and Preckwinkle cross ed the street and got in the damn SUV.

Not only are these prima dona politicians ignoring street lights & signs, they ignore the Rules of the Road;and, like many of the potential crimes that go unreported due to citizens carrying and shitbird realizing it, I imagine there are many instances of really bad driving on the part of the drivers, driving these politicians going unreported.

Why they are even driven around like POTUS is beyond me.

How many red lights and speeding violations were actually committed then, when less than 5% of every intersection in Chicago is monitored?

They say that Team Prizwrinkle pays the red light tickets...what they dont say is its with Tax Payer money of course.
I've seen her driver in action too - flashing blue
lights and all. What's the hurry, it's county business after all.

Do you realize how stupid this sounds? If that were the case, Chicago would have had another black mayor by now. Idiot. The reverends are paid off by dollar lots, the black politicians get crumbs so they shut up. The blacks who have money get no bid contracts or pennies on the dollar of affirmative action contracts. They are paid off. There will never be another black mayor in Chicago.

Preckwinkle has also said the Cook County criminal justice system is racist because of the overwhelming numbers of blacks and Hispanics incarcerated at County Jail. As much as I dislike Rahm she is worse of two evils.

Hey Numbnuts, go to dictionary.com and look up the word "sarcasm". Now, reflect on what I wrote and then, shut up, either go back to moms basement or grab your shine box, stupid boy.
