Nice Shooting There Tex

  • An accused gang member who told police he keeps a gun to protect himself from rivals accidentally shot and killed a member of his own gang while waving that weapon around outside a Southwest Side Walgreen store over the Fourth of July weekend, Cook County prosecutors said.

    Richard Magnan, who has numerous face tattoos, including one that reads, “F--- the world” and a White Sox logo, was friends with Joel Bentley — the man he shot in the early morning hours of July 5, Assistant State’s Attorney Alexandra Molesky said.
Well done dumbshit.

No CCW permit or FOID card? That means the asshat media won't care. If it was someone with a FOID card, you'd better believe we'd have a full court press from 2/5/7/9 and the newspapers.

New rules in 011 from 1100x. Tact teams do not respond to selling jobs and the beat cars don't respond to 911 calls so they can be on missions. I am wondering if anyone out there knows how that would cause a problem with liability? If we aren't responding to calls of help from citizens because we are on missions, we can't get in trouble right?


It is so messed up right now. I'm a po in 011 3 years on the job I don't know who to trust or to to talk to about the leadership in 011. I thought are job is to attest people. But all the supervisors are saying no don't arrest people anov and or contact card them . But I think to myself was the pc to contact card them. I'm so confused please help.

The problem is you are a Jedi knight but you are working for for the Galactic Empire. And your leaders all work under the Sith Lord, aka Emmanuel. Don't fear. There are other Jedis around.

To be sure many of them are wearing Storm Trooper armor and you can't recognize them, but they are there with you. They are just as afraid as you.

Find yoda or some other trusted mentor. Use the force and you will prevail.

The leadership in every district are under orders from Garry and RAHM to ANOV and contact card. Arrests take time and cost money. This is why we have lost it out there. The criminals know they get away with it. The ANOV does not mean shit when you don't have an ID or income other than SSI.

Don't hate the players, hate the game. Trust yourself and nobody else. Think your going to reform the system, think again. Keep your eyes and ears open and your mouth shut. If you ever think the system is legit just think back to the Koschman case. That should tell you just about everything. It's just a pay check anymore. Nothing more. Nothing less.

Right out of the Alinsky left playbook and perfected by the Clintons. Frame the discussion in your terms, not true terms. Cutting pensions to continue to buy votes with entitlements is "reform". Cutting entitlements to fund pensions is "draconian cuts". See how easy? And the dishonest, two faced republicans aren't much better.

To the young P.O from 011...Did MANY years over there when we had GOOD bosses. BEST advice I can give you is MAKE SURE that you and the guys you leave roll call with ALL go home safe; ALWAYS BACK EACH OTHER UP!! Things will NEVER change until the powers to be have the balls to call out the REAL problem; the "PEOPLE" of that area. Same thing in ALL the ghetto districts. VERY common denominator but NO ONE is willing to blame the real problem...the CLOWNS living there. Do your tour and try to help those over there who REALLY want the help; because there are good folks stuck in that shithole area who would LOVE to be able to live an ordinary life as well. Stay SAFE and GOD BLESS!!

I feel for you guys and gals in 011. It was a great place to work up until just a short time ago. What happened? Captain Thomas Lemmer is what happened!

This is a guy who hasn't done an ounce of police work in his whole career. A house mouse extraordinaire who's claim to fame is being the Acting Director of Research and Development.

Glen Evans may be a nice guy and a working cop, but he made a big mistake bringing Lemmer over as his right hand man. But don't believe me. Just look at the homicide numbers in 011 this year vs last. They ain't pretty, and are a direct result of Lemmer's failed 023rd District mission tactics.

Stay strong and wait him out. This too shall pass.

to the officers in the 11th district, evans came there because McCarthy thought he was the best fit for being the District Commander, sometimes foot soldiers and district Lts. are just that, and can't seem to function in the great ball of decision making such as those that come with running a district, there is a period of adjustment granted but if someone doesn't have the brains to run it, then McCarthy has to put another Black person in charge, heaven forbid that they put a white qualified in 11 to run it, then the Revs, and aldermen complain that we whites don't know black culture, well after working 36 of my 38 years in black districts I would think that one would know the way black folks think and act.

Four days after the shooting, Clearing neighbors ask questions about the incident, at a CAPS Beat 812 meeting. "I want you to know that it's an isolated incident," [CPD Sgt.] Taglioli emphasized. "Originally, it came out [among some people in the neighborhood] that it was a drive-by shooting, which was totally false. The case has been solved, and [police] are not looking for anyone else."

Several people in the audience said they understood that retaliation is not an issue to fear, yet voiced concern over who lives in the house in question and asked police if gangbangers live there.

Taglioli said he searched arrest records going back 10 years and found only one arrest--a domestic matter--at the address.

Officer Rachel Krass added that people who host house parties often do not have complete control over who shows up.

Taglioli also said, "I don't know if there was a relationship between that party and the shooting. I'm not putting blame on that house."

Beat/caps meetings are a joke and always have been. Why do the police have to run and answer questions in these meetings? It should be the alderman's office. The beat meeting is just another way for the city to blame police for shit going wrong. It puts a police face to the problems we usually can't address. The sgt, or whoever runs it, is going to give the same run around answers as everyone else. Because, the sgt, can't do anything about it anyway. The problem is when you have (or go) to the beat meetings in on city workers beats, they know the answers are bullshit.

Until the clown met his "tragic" end I could count on ONE hand how many times I saw a squad cruise past my house in a week. All of a sudden a shithead gets blown away and now the area IS FLOODED (carnival has some to do with it). I love it. Let's ask the bangers to keep blowing away their POS friends so the boys in blue and whites stay over this way. 811 and 812 should NEVER be allowed off their beats UNLESS going to a 10-1; other than that fuck the clowns running and gunning in the 20 and 30 sectors. If you want to "play" over their ask for those beats and give up '11 and '12 to the guys who understand why they're on those cars. And THANK YOU to the officers who are seen over this way for doing what you can. Just seeing that squad makes these shitheads think twice. STAY SAFE!!

I'm right next to 008. Just east in 9. That is the type of Sgt the coppers from 008 R talking about that have white shirts and CLEARLY don't deserve to be part of The Brave New World.
When I'm on 922 or 923(any where that East 008 border I say a prayer for those coppers working the east end of 008. That's a non stop shit hole and those coppers earn every dime and then some of their salary.
Fuck these D-Bag Sgts that hide behind their white shirts.
A good Sgt is worth his/her weight in gold!

A face only a mother could love. Looks like she FAILED in parenting, however.
