Not a Recommendation

A lot of "buyer's remorse" coming out of Jersey in recent weeks following McCarthy's ouster from Chicago:
  • News that former city police director Garry McCarthy was relieved of his duties as head of the Chicago Police Department has generated little sympathy among city leaders that remember his tenure.

    The city is "still suffering because of his bad public policy regarding police issues," said Central Ward Councilwoman Gayle Chaneyfield-Jenkins. "I just feel sorry that the citizens of Chicago had to be subjected to his horrific brand of community policing for all those years. He needs to get a different profession."

    Udi Ofer, Executive Director of the ACLU of New Jersey, questioned the decision by Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel to hire McCarthy.

    "He left a legacy of widespread civil rights violations," Ofer said, referring to the findings of a U.S. Justice Department review spurred by the ACLU that found that municipal police in the state's largest city had repeatedly violated the rights of its residents.

    "That was his track record in Newark, and that's what he brought to Chicago," Ofer said.
Granted, the ACLU isn't the best gauge, seeing as how they think looking cross-eyed at a suspect is a Civil Rights violation, but you have to question Rahm's ability to pick the absolutely worst person for various positions.

Guys just go to your calls in a timely fashion as required. Don't be the next video on the evil news. Be smart. Know that there's nothing a boss can do to help anymore. It's very bad times. Call back will be standing room only. This is only the beginning of the storm. Please watch out. They will be checking contact cards etc. etc. They want evil to win over the good. Do not talk to the media. Pass gas and walk away.

Garry, a Legend in his own mind. If he kept his mouth shut more often with the media he might still be around...He became a liability and was dramatically pompous about it. He needed a slap cause he saw him-self as indispensable and right out of central casting.

Rock glass says:
"Clink!"

"Sssiip!
Mmmm... Good."

So...
It stands to reason that Rahm's
"You're from central casting" remark
to McLawEnforcementGypsy was
nothing but a bunch of donkey dung?

So...
Rahm willfully ignored/failed to perform due dilligence
regarding the chatter around the back door that
McI'mNotGoingAnywhere was under a cloud since he
was an NYPD Gold Star.

In addition to the FEDS walking in his footprints everywhere
he's set foot.

We bet he kills the fucking grass where ever he treads too.

He surely manages to kill the shit out of Police Departments...

He is following in the footsteps of his most illustrious boss, Barck Insane Obama.

Remember his first pick, Joe "Short Bus" Biden?

Big Sis Napolitano
Eric Fast and Furious Holder
Hillary Clinton Foundation Contributions Accepted Clinton
And too many more motley second rate choices...

Rahm learned how to pick the most corrupt and inept from the master.

Most people were saying that McCarthy was a bad apple right when he was hired. It was obvious from the get go that he was in way over his head. No surprises here at the results and outcome of his tenure.

Where were they five years ago?

Probably keeping their mouths shut and thanking God that someone would take Garry off their hands.

McCarthy is poison to everything he touches.

That Chicago Police Foundation should just fade away. There are many good police charities to contribute to, but not anything he is associated with.

With McCarthy gone, will there be an end to contact card demands? Will VRI end?

In Jerzy Civil Rights/Brutality complaints are often pushed under the rug if politicians and police administrators hire someone the Dem/Lib machine controls.
This may well be the guy they've got the most dirt on. It isn't just Brutality but Venality as well. It's about power not morals. Even Liberal Morals.

Chiefs of Police are mostly no more than highly paid prostitutes.

McNutt will, I am sure will find some other department to infect, and there could be a bonus of many street lights to use for target practice.

When you let a mayor and his appointed board choose a top cop, this is what happens. Don't know when this started but we are so used to it, it seems normal. You have no integrity in place with this system. If a mayor or anyone under him is dirty, an appointed police chief cannot effectively investigate or police any wrong doings. How can you bite the hand that feeds you??? We will never have integrity, as the mayor begs to have with his police department when everything is compromised. But this is the state with the most political crime anywhere according to the Feds. Now even the Feds have decreased integrity because of politics. This is a very scary time to be the police, you really have no friends.

Callback will not need an addition or be jammed to the gills. The city will just race to fire people immediately, costing them millions of dollars down the road when arbitrators rule in favor of the vast majority of victim officers who had been railroaded by shoddy investigations and labor law violations. But hey, that will be on the next mayor's ledger, so why worry about it.

OT:
Watched the televised Laquon McDonald Family gathering today in their church and with its Pastor. Wonder: how come they can pray with the Media present but Kids kneeling in prayerful solidarity that they will be victorious in a ball game can not pray? This society needs to straighten up.

And Med students in white coats....where the hell have they been with loads of black on black murders happening daily and victims being sent to their hospitals? Did they just wake up? Med Students and Docs need to get off the stage...go back to taking care of your victims....others will take care of the politics.

Only 1 person could realign this city,and it is only the great SEISER! Reality is next boss is Ramsey bet your bottom dollar on it! rahm will meet his pay and give him whatever he wants, rahm is so hot and angry right now but he will never step down, he is not a Chicagoan, never was he is a rich New Trier Winnetka style member of the 1% club, can he even tell the truth on anything? Watching a minister talking about mcdonald the only thing he said that is agreed upon is that the power structure (rahm,obama) holds them back, keeps they poor that's true! But then again we have liberal White idiots that have never dealt with a criminal supporting thuglife!

To all the liberals don't be scared, take a bus get off say 55th and Halsted walk south to maybe 63rd street, walk through the area then come back and tell everyone how "tough" you are! "Do you feel lucky? well do you punk?"

Again, suckhole reporter, you have ruined ever newspaper in my city that I can't even read anymore. This is the only thing I go to for information, don't ruin this too.

McCarthy shouldn't have been hired because of his run in with the tollway cops in Jersey. Subsequently he tried to get that whole department closed because they hurt his feelings.

Then he trusted Rahm. Read that he had been offered a position as NFL security director. I bet that pays high 6 figures. He should have taken that before his recent canning.

Maybe this time the City will pick a guy who actually knows something about law enforcement, instead of being a parrot that keeps blaming guns. I can hope, can't I?
