All Elective Time Canceled?

Rumor popping up in the comments about all elective time off is about to be canceled for New Years Eve.

Anyone have the facts since 35th Street is closed until Monday? Is that New York "credible threat" going national?

Who cares? We have the leadership we voted for. Have you ever felt safer? Obama has made America respected as never before around the world, and his chief of staff has a ballerina plan in place for Chicago. What could go wrong? if the attack comes, Rahm will say it doesn't reflect Chicago values and cry like the North Shore suburbanite he is. Of course, he'll be doing that from communist Cuba.

With terrorist threats being such a concern you would think the department would have a unit at the ready to respond. We can't rely on SWAT it would be too late. CPD should have officers who are carbine operators and possess their own, patrolling and visible for deterence. They should be at the airports or downtown etc. There should be a unit created for this or maybe just a 24 hour OT program. We have OT programs for everything else why not one for carbine operators? Visibility is deference.

Milwaukee Police Association vs City of Milwaukee Appeal #2014AP000400

Wisconsin Supreme Court will hear the city's appeal regarding the MPD police union's lawsuit to lift their residency requirement.

Their union is crap, but obviously trying to do something big for their membership - like give them a choice as to where they can live.

The leaders of this city and department are so scared of how things look to the public instead of doing what's smart to protect the public. The only way to deter or stop a terrorist attack is meeting force with equal force. Long guns vs Long guns. We should have rifle qualified POs patrolling various areas with their long guns. If the leaders are foolishly scared about "how it looks" then keep the POs in their cars but at least have them there. Start an OT opportunity for rifle qualified POs or a unit. SWAT is great but we can't wait for them. We need long guns visible and on patrol at vulnerable locations. It's common sense. I'm sure numerous carbine POs would sign up for the OT. We need to take action now not after an attack. Wake up! Get the long guns visible!

More than likely to "protect" the police hating Ch 5 and their shit show with the rising star. It would be great if someone steals Mary Ann Ahern's "I-foam" and then Rob Elgas can do an in depth investigation of the lack of coverage for their self-serving media event. Hey Carol Marin - maybe then you can have the "Ferguson style" riots which you clamored for this past August but never materialized.

I would love to know why our Department hides the fact that we are looking to identify a terrorist. What do they put out in a bulletin, some bullshit about him being a witness to a crime and if identified contact the Intelligence Section. WTF is that about. This male was observed inside Soldier Field weeks ago around 0500 hours with a video camera and a still camera taking pictures of damn near every square inch of the facility including the vending machines.

Here is the kicker Monterrey Security watched him for nearly a half an hour, then they approach him and he flees on foot getting away. The real scary part is these idiots failed to notify CPD for several days. Why the hell this is not being plastered all over the news is beyond me. So for anyone going to Soldier Field I would advise against it.

I fully expect our Department to lie to us but the fact that they hide this from us is completely absurd. Instead they want us to chase the protestors, all while these terrorists lie in wait for a perfect opportunity to strike.

For anyone that doubts this look it up on the Administrative Messages from 04 Dec 2015.

Stay Safe out there, because now even the exempts are hiding stuff that can get us killed, all for the fact of not offending some group.

You want the commander to prevent people from taking 13B furloughs? Should we cancel all furlough segments that have a holiday in them? Let me guess, you have slightly more than 10 years on, and you're on a different watch, and you didn't get a 13B, so you cry about someone on midnights getting what you wanted?

But we cant promote 200 hundred people and we think the Department would be better served if you were in Patrol so thanks and don't take in personal.

Does the FOP or Deans FLOP keep track of how many times the City has these threat and emergency's?

When those genius Alderman changed the proper amount of officers needed to keep the City in check (13,500) it became apparent that everything is an emergency now! I don't recall the lovely 1990's with project buildings ever crying wolf this many time a year.

Summer festivals, playoffs,visiting presidents, and of course terrorist who post on twitter! Now if the exempts actually had training on leading troops and controlling riots or mass arrest I would feel somewhat at ease.

Next contract may need some stipulation on this every things a emergency because we are understaffed! Come up with a special employment for those officers begging for overtime scraps.

Anyone know how many times this year elective time was restricted? It is a mystery that desk dollies seem to never be detailed and still seem to be home on every holiday. I though cameras were going to save downtown from protest?!?

Unless you're part of the unit, why SHOULD you need to know anything about their operation? Shouldn't that be part of the definition of an anti-terror unit? You're not on the 'need to know' list, so get over it.

And I'd say they made a wise choice not to put you on that team, since you feel the need to blab about covert operations on a public blog.

955am we have an anti terrorist unit in mass transit unit 704 who received millions in federal grants?????? Im wondering what they do too and I work out of mass transit to I'm just not in that elite unit

They received millions in grants but the city stole most of it. Ask the old commander why he left so fast. Was about to get thrown under the bus like gary.

"Armed security officers will guard this event. Chicago Police will not get involved. This is a private - open to the public run event. Private security only event."

Hmm.

"How will Chi-Town Rising secure this large scale event?

"Chi-Town Rising is working closely with the City of Chicago, Chicago Police Department, Chicago Fire Department, and Office of Emergency Management to ensure all appropriate safety measures are in place. Security measures will be in effect to proactively address potential issues, including public intoxication and open alcohol. Ticketed attendees to Chi-Town Rising events will be required to show positive ID and submit to inspections."

Hey will you morons stop talking about the security level at the airports!

Motherfucker! How dumb can you be talking about such a thing on a public forum?

I suspect at least some arent even CPD "I know who you are" but you are Americans so just shut the fuck up.

Imaging if they attacked the airports. There's almost zero armed presence there. If anything maybe a few old timers with revolvers. We need guys patrolling with rifles. That's the only way to possibly stop or deter an attack. SWAT is too far away. Start an OT program for qualified rifle cops. Have them deployed like VRI but at vulnerable places like the airports. Be proactive Chicago!

12/26/2015 04:24:00 PM



You know not of what you speak. Not giving away anything (think about it), and not everyone at O'Hare is a dinosaur. Quite a few guys on 3rd watch with semi-auto's that know what they're doing. While I agree that the rifle-qualified guys need to carry them, it's not the retirement village you think it is.

Well I know they took a bunch of hacks that didn't have the 28+ year otj that it takes to make it to either airport.If you are a 28+ vet with glock or Springfield then I salute you and you did your time.If you are those other hacks that kissed ass and cried to daddy for a spot you fucked over a lot of decent old timers.

I would love to know why our Department hides the fact that we are looking to identify a terrorist. What do they put out in a bulletin, some bullshit about him being a witness to a crime and if identified contact the Intelligence Section. WTF is that about. This male was observed inside Soldier Field weeks ago around 0500 hours with a video camera and a still camera taking pictures of damn near every square inch of the facility including the vending machines.

Here is the kicker Monterrey Security watched him for nearly a half an hour, then they approach him and he flees on foot getting away. The real scary part is these idiots failed to notify CPD for several days. Why the hell this is not being plastered all over the news is beyond me. So for anyone going to Soldier Field I would advise against it.

I fully expect our Department to lie to us but the fact that they hide this from us is completely absurd. Instead they want us to chase the protestors, all while these terrorists lie in wait for a perfect opportunity to strike.

For anyone that doubts this look it up on the Administrative Messages from 04 Dec 2015.

Stay Safe out there, because now even the exempts are hiding stuff that can get us killed, all for the fact of not offending some group.

This department is soooo fucked up, trust me....if the public knew thw half of it..

Monterrey is owned by a fired Chicago Police Officer who likes to hire minority convicted felons. Nothing but the best at Soldier Field. An accident waiting to happen.

Well, you got me. I'm going to come up with a good comeback. It's just gonna take some time. But that's ok...I'll think of something. Maybe after I hang up with my dad. Better yet, right after I walk the terminals for exercise. Maybe when I'm working my day off for time
and a half. I won't be able to think up a snappy comeback while the Stanley Cup is coming through though. And remember...the airports are 50-50%. Don't hate the player, hate the game.

Thanksgiving denied , Christmas denied now New Years eve?
I guess we are the most important entity in chicago if its so imperative that we have to work on holidays no matter what. I had plans to go to cuba but i guess i have to cancel them.

Let this city burn.

Since when was NYE considered a holiday ?

12/27/2015 09:02:00 AM

Sure, let this city burn. Your house first, though, since you're so big on the whole idea. Ass.

I know I have to work holidays when scheduled, and I know stuff comes up.... But cancelling RDO's with only 6 days notice, for an event they have known about for 6 months is complete bullshit... even if you are in a tac team, unit, etc...

Read the Chi-Town order. No RDO's cancelled for P.O.'s except for Tac and Gangs. Elective time due is cancelled unless you put in a P-Day (before the 10 Day time frame).

It's in BLACK AND WHITE.

can you say reading comprehension
