Failure to Launch

  • The Chicago Police Department is reportedly about to start a new program designed to do something about the co-called “code of silence,” which, police say, makes investigating crimes very difficult because often witnesses and even victims won’t tell police what they know, reports WBBM....

    The police department is calling the new effort the Campaign to Break the Code of Silence Drop Box Initiative.
Almost 15 months later, has a single Snitch-Box ever been installed in a high-crime area? Has anyone even seen one near a District? How about a single tip or clue generated by this "strategy?"

We were just wondering.

Maybe someone will drop a note as to how dumb asses make the merit list, since crime fighting tips don't have a snowball's chance in hell of making it into the box.

Their intentions are good and that is what counts. failure to actually install snitch boxes is minor.

Using up as much bandwidth as possible with new initiatives, strategies, nanny-gov bullshit, give aways and knee-walking appeasement to distract from how this Potemkin village on top of a cemetery dug out of a swamp is burning...

Chicago is a shit show...

I herein nominate whoever the person(s) is/(are) that passed on the "snitch box" brainstorm to McCarthy is/are the CPD Darwin Award winner for the decade. I would bet my life's savings that said person(s) never worked a night tour in Fillmo' or da 'Wood.

Dumb muthafuckas!

Yet, never underestimate a detective with extraordinary interrogation skills that even if he had a misdemeanant mutt or even a minor felon by the short hairs, he's cleared unsolved murders by arrest on their info.

It would even pass muster with SCOTUS if I convincently told John Wayne Gacy that I had a secret obsession with sucking teen dick just to get him to 'fess up.

To the contrary, I am passionately and exclusively heterosexual.

By the way, during interrogations, my Oscar nominations as a homicide dick would put Meryl Streep to shame.

Roll out my red carpet, damnit.

Three words: Material Witness Warrant... Oh wait, scratch that. Why force people to do the right thing. Besides, somehow it would be twisted into Racism. Well, let the killing continue. Less work for me anyways.

That don't have enough Detectives to investigate anyways. Why bother? They are hiring from a 10 year old test. This place is a joke!

Let them have their code of silence!! Don't try and change ghetto behavior encouraged by Jesse Jackson and white liberals.

Detectives simply won't investigate any further, and it will save the taxpayers a ton of money not having to arrest and incarcerate a gang banger.

Code of silence actually helps the budget.. Rahm are you taking notes ??

Make them multi-purpose and put them everywhere. A recycled plastic Snitch drop-box that also provides free birth control and breath mints.

This was written by that same moron who constantly posts on Occupy Chicago.

I bet he's silent by necessity when dressed in drag and doing a deep throat BJ.

Be patient. Vanecko has been in jail. He hasn't ramped up production yet. They will only cost the city 150k each because they have a padlock on them.

Rahm has created so much stress for Garry that now Garry is in the hospital.

Meanwhile...

Rahm's doing another fundraiser tonight because it's all about the money.

$7 million in his personal bank account is not enough!

Taliban tells Obama to respect their code of silence:

"Snitches Get Stitches"

Oh the irony!

WASHINGTON (AP) - Officials: Congress not told of swap because Taliban threatened to kill Bergdahl if it leaked...

Then there's this..When a Chicago gang banger threatens to kill you if you leak information SO WHAT, right?

WMAQ‑TV

In response to questions about violence, Mayor Rahm Emanuel asks the community to step up after nine....

-------------------------

So the message is that if your life is threatened the code of silence is not okay.

However in the elite double standard it's okay for the elites to maintain a code of silence even if it's a direct violation of the law.

Broken Windows 101 Bullshit!

There's more going on with this prisoner swap here than meets the eye me thinks.

Also, think about it.

The highly regarded and much heralded elected US officials in congress cannot be trusted.

Of course many of us know that already

What is so difficult about just calling the police station or a detective and relaying information over the phone. They can use their obama phone, pay phone or other cell phones(cuz they all have multiple phones for some reason). That seems to be more discreet than dropping a note off in a snitch box. Just another pathetic and desperate attempt to give the illusion of lowering crime.

The police should set the example. Snitch on the bossholes who covered up the Koschman murder.

I don't understand how the city gets away with this, THE POLICE DEPARTMENT NEEDS DETECTIVES!!! You have three areas that look full of detectives on paper, but in reality those detectives are covering the same land geographic, population, and crimes as five areas. The areas are running on skeleton crews, the only unit I see in more dire need of bodies is the forensic section. Oh, the city could use an Area West, stop short changing the citizens residing west of Western avenue!

The city politicos don't care about crime, they just make it sound like they do. Register to vote all u jack asses, or we will suffer in the long run. We are just one good market crash of seeing are pension disappear, because rambo is putting nothing into it. and he won't, because we don't Vote. We don't even register to vote, along with family and friends. Someone estimated from Police Dept. alone with family and friends, we could have approx. 150,000 registered voters if we tried.

Doesn't a "snitch box" assume that a snitch can actually write a coherent note in English? Fat chance on that!

Because it was so laughable. This blog and the comments at roll calls helped deep six that dumb idea.
