More Cameras Coming
- The Chicago Police Department expects to receive a shipment of more than 450 body cameras, which will be worn by officers in some of the most gang-plagued areas of the city in addition to the department's top brass starting this spring, city officials announced Sunday.
After being trained, officers and supervisors in seven of the department's 22 police districts will be equipped with body cameras capable of recording 72 continuous hours of high-definition video and audio on a single charge.
The new cameras, part of a city pilot program, began in January 2015 in the Shakespeare District, which covers the Logan Square and West Town communities on the North and Northwest sides. The six new police districts, which encompass one-third of the city, cover the South Shore, Auburn Gresham, Chatham, Washington Park, Hyde Park, Kenwood, Back of the Yards, Brighton Park, Bridgeport, Austin, North Lawndale and Little Village communities.
Those seem like predominantly ....ah, nevermind. It'd be silly to point that out.
People want accountability - get ready for the "Age of Zero Discretion" and being accountable for your own actions.

This article made us smile though:
- Chicago’s top cop plans to start wearing a body camera Monday as part of a 15-month pilot program that has so far produced substantially fewer videos per officer than in several other big cities.
Interim Police Supt. Eddie Johnson has pledged to wear a body camera, along with his command staff, to “demonstrate our commitment to rebuilding trust with the residents we’re sworn to serve.”
Maybe he can wear it to the weekly Rahm briefing. Or the Secret Study Group.

Let the indictments begin .
Hope all the kids working in these district realize that the body cams are not there to help them, they are there to catch them doing something wrong. Do everything 100% legit, do not sway
They should be used in tact first.
So does this mean that at the next COMSTAT meeting the bodycams will be rolling capturing every word and action by all present? Should make for some interesting viewing on YouTube.
Omg, and they thought police have up before... put a body cam on and who's going to do anything? Things can be misconstrued and you have non police reviewing this stuff making determinations on ur actions that can get u fired, sued, or worse sent to prison. I didn't think it could get much worse, but every move they make they prove me wrong.
It is rather silly for the superintendent and the command staff to say they are going to wear body cameras. They are not encountering any bad guys nor are they making street stops nor arrests at their level. It is insulting to the rank and file. If he is really serious he should release their entire tours of duty on tape to the department website so we can see what they do all day and so we can emulate them. And no editing especially with meetings with the mayor and other political hacks. If he won't release them then you know he is a phony.
Lawyers should wear body cameras When they pay off Witnesses to change their minds,And Politicians should wear them at the back door Gold Coast parties,I know who you are and you're on a Go Pro.
How long is the superintendent gonna be patrolling the streets? Once a month for an hour and after his initial dog and pony show he won't be wearing it all cuz he'll be inside.
If you're still doing things like dope arrests and car chases, you're a complete fucking idiot.
STAY EMPLOYED, STAY OUT OF PRISON, STAY FETAL
Where does all the money to fund this project come from instantly? I don't recall much hand wringing about how much it will cost. On the other hand, the city has not met it's pension obligations. There seems to be zero outcry by the public, politicians and our own union. Why?
good luck getting jammed up guys... 2017 law mandates that cops in Illinois will wear cameras
65 ILCS 5/11-1-14 new
Amends the Illinois Municipal Code. Provides that municipalities with
a population of greater than 1,000,000 shall require their police officers
to wear and use body cameras and to create policies concerning the wearing
and use of body cameras on or before January 1, 2017. Limits home rule
powers. Effective immediately.
Hmmmm... If you got the test whats the need for a study group ?
WTF is his body camera going to catch? His drive from home to the ivory tower?
still ain't doin NOTHING . . . .
Do you think Eddie will face discipline for not turning his camera on like a blue shirt would be?
Will he be unable to view/edit footage like a blue shirt would be?
Of course not.
So for him to symbolically wear a body camera to show he's one of us is complete, unadulterated bullshit.
I think Rahm ought to lead by example and wear a body camera and also insist that his 50 alder thieves wear one too.
It'd be all in the name of accountability and transparency..... you know the things Rahm insists on for everyone but himself.
Great! He's going to wear a camera while doing what exactly? We know it won't be street stops or domestics. We know it won't be secret meetings or anything that happens at headquarters or city hall. What's the point?
So Im going to wear the body camera and do ISR for every contact with the public. I feel less violated when my Dr does a rectal exam on me.
ACTING Superintendent Eddie Johnson should have the camera on whenever he speaks with an alderman, other politician or reverend demanding that a clout baby receive a undeserved promotion or assignment!
Or which restaurants are picking up the check....
I wonder what the command staff is going to record are they going to answer to the radio? I got a good idea how about recording roll call and than the ACLU can see for themselves how our merit hack supervisors what us to violate the good citizen right with their asinine threats and demands. You go Eddie nothing you do will matter until the minorities accept responsibility for their actions. Stay Fetal boys and girls
They should order an extra 120 or so, for the following:
50 Aldermen
50 Aldermanic Chief of Staff
1 Rahm
1 Mayor's Chief of Staff
All of the people in the Mayor's Office

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Our Union doesn't say shit.
This is the most silent FOP board ever!
Guys and gals, you all KNEW this was coming. This too shall pass.
so we fuck up once and they fuck up thousands of times and WE have to re-build the trust?
Hmmm...let's see, who needs cameras?
Beat officers? Check.
Beat sergeants? Check.
Field lieutenant? Check.
Superintendent? Yeah sure, check.
Tactical teams? Che...yeah, let's hold off on those.
Don't let anyone pressure (sucker) you into doing something in the name of productivity (numbers) that you'll regret. Respond to your jobs, write paper when needed but be very sure before you do anything that is self initiated, and watch what you say too, even before the lights go on.
It's time to be the police that the vocal people think they want. Example: "Hello sir/ma'am, what happened? Do you know who did this? Do you need an ambulance? This is your report number right here."
Guess with these, no breaks for anybody. Everybody gets a ticket. Off-duty cops, Aldermen, judges, firemen, and family members of city workers. Punish everybody.
I don't think that you really have a grasp on the thought process of the liberal progressive, anti-police crowd ( pardon me I repeat myself) out there. From conversations that I have had with them, many of them are defense attorneys, they believe that crime is caused by " youthful indiscretion" and that there really are no " bad guys" in the black community. The real problem is " over-policing" which causes too many unnecessary arrests and makes felons out of black youth. They don't believe in long prison sentences for murder or for shooting someone. Yes, they honestly believe that. And, I had one person recently tell me that the reduction in street stops is a good thing and any increase in crime has been caused by Gov. Rauner reducing money for social programs. So, now you know what they think of you and what you do every day out there. Be careful and protect yourself. They are not on your side.
2:57. Ummmmm...to make it look legit
I want the pols we elected and pay to wear cameras. I want to know what the fuck they do all day.
If you're still doing things like dope arrests and car chases, you're a complete fucking idiot.
STAY EMPLOYED, STAY OUT OF PRISON, STAY FETAL
Well said last time I checked we all get paid EXACTLY the same. Dope arrests all get tossed in Court so that's just a waste of time sitting in the Station processing a drug arrest. As far as car chases the vast majority of these chases are over a hot car, not worth it to chase especially if the bad guy blows through two lights, you wouldn't be very smart to continue chasing over that hot car just so you can go to your local bar and have a new story for the guys or go the gym with a new story over a fucken hot car because lets be honest here nobody cares about your stories, guys just pretend to care and listen to your story so you can listen to their story, its your ass if the bad guy or you hit a Civilian over this nonsense. Just be smart out there guys there is no quota just stay fetal and continue working VRI for a few hundred dollars a night.
Give the "people" what the asked for. Zero discretion. TVB and one bag them all. Now that it is on tape, dont worry about the CR or lawsuit. The funniest thing is going to be the statistics after the trial period, arrests in the city will be predominantly black and hispanic. Lets see the city fudge the numbers now.
Just like private Pyle eating the jelly doughnut-someone is going to pay for it.
All for one and one for all if one wears one everybody wears one even tact teams and everything
Mayor Emanuel needs to lead by example and also wear one of these body cameras. The taxpayers of this city should have a 24/7 glimpse of every one of his sneaky back door cutting deals tactics.
These cameras can serve a useful purpose. If we could note when we have a particularly ghetto-fabulous interaction with the public, we could then FOIA the video. Perhaps an enterprising tech-savvy individual could post these to a website or to YOUTUBE and make some money. It would also serve the purpose of showing the unknowing public the crap we see and have to deal with on a daily basis. Maybe garner a little support.
At the least it would provide laughs for people.
Just another reason to stay extremely fetal.
The media is full of simpletons!
So he wears a camera and his driver will pull people over?
You know the media hack will wait a month and request any video the supe may have.
Eddie will of course have a few traffic stop because he knows this will happen, he will also glide by a few details so watch if you see him wandering around.
But he will not do any contact card and he will not be wearing that bright yellow taser. It is so great to decide what you want to wear.
I've seen pandering before but the command staff wearing cameras? Where? To the coffee and bathroom breaks at 35th St.? These guys are never really "on the street"? If they are wearing them they should do so when they meet with the politicians - Rahm and the alder-creatures. I bet the public would love to see some of those videos.
“demonstrate our commitment to rebuilding trust with the residents we’re sworn to serve.”
When you introduce audio/video recording into what is a police-hating, "no snitchin'" environment in the first place, how much more "trust" are you going to get?
Of course, some people are permanently out of their heads, and will yell out or do absolutely anything, even in front of existing fixed cameras. Hell, some even record and publicly post their own crimes. It's a mixed bag.
I do feel that it will discourage casual conversation with normals, however. You may end up getting less information about things going on, not more. Makes people nervous.
Rahm says police should "embrace" these gadgets and "make them part of their culture." Standard gibble-gabble.
This new government by cameraphone/Facebook/Internet is changing our society in many ways -- not all of them good. A guy in California just got a symbolic $60 million fine and a very real 20 years in prison for deliberately starting the huge "King Forest Fire" in 2014 which destroyed 12 homes and about 100 other structures, burned 100,000 acres of forest, injured firefighters, and took a whole month to bring under control. How much did all those water-dropping flights and everything else cost us?
Crazy a__hole did it just so he could take "selfies" of his "heroism" -- narrating "I'm in danger, babe, danger with flames on all sides of me."

It's too weird.
good luck getting jammed up guys... 2017 law mandates that cops in Illinois will wear cameras

"65 ILCS 5/11-1-14 new
Amends the Illinois Municipal Code. Provides that municipalities with
a population of greater than 1,000,000 shall require their police officers
to wear and use body cameras..."
The population figure shows that this means just Chicago.
For now.
Could use a few of those in Englewood...a nice documentary in the making.
I have 10 years on. Im officially posting a resume and looking for employment elsewhere. As much as I love being a Chicago cop, I hate the politics. The politicians have officially taken the joy and fulfillment one gets from helping someone, or catching a bad guy, away. Hopefully something worth while comes along. If not, I'll stick it out for the twenty, and I'll never look back. This job is not worth it anymore. For trying to do good, you could lose your family, freedom, pension, or life. People say "you get paid so good". $80 grand isn't so good, especially in the city. It's good, but nowhere near what we should be getting. Plus, you have to have college to get on the job. $80 grand is not out of reach by any means, if you have a college education and experience.
Put body cameras on; lobbyists, hedge fund managers, Wall St. Weasels, Madigan, Cullerton, Lil Dick Daley, Rahmie and Pants Suit Hillary. No wait not Pants Suit Hillary we might see a body part, and that would be Icky. ♠️
bring on what ever the city wants just pay me my money bitches
I am on the saturation team. Ok big deal, bring on the cameras. Myself and my team will continue to keep working.

Even if you do 100% right you still get fucked over. I have a better idea. If you don't know what that better idea is then you are stupid.
Have yet to see anything in the news regarding the homicide of the gang banger girl in 008 that was brain dead for a few days. She gone. How long will they be hiding it.
The age of accountability... how about this for an idea, let's put body cams on the Mayor and his 50 part time Alder thieves, even better every shit byrd with multiple felony convictions or Parloee just released from shit can. Now that my friend is accountability.
How about all of our AlderCreatures and other elected officials wearing body cams to make sure there are no more crooked deals going on in city government? Oh noooo. That would never happen. Any wonder they can't get anyone to take the police test in this town. The job is dead and this city is doomed.
"So for him to symbolically wear a body camera to show he's one of us is complete, unadulterated bullshit."
You'd prefer he just tell you to wear the damn camera and refuse to wear one himself?
I mean, exactly WTF is it you expect him to do?
I'm sure we can think of hundreds of thousands of instances that innocent victims of crimes do not want their tragedy recorded.
This will be great! Stupid for someone in an office all day but great for the Officers. When you shoot the low I.Q. street thug, and his mammy comes out and says he a goot boi, he neber hurt no one, he turning his life around, and all the other bullshit, a little bit of Officer body cam slips into the media. Shows the raging "goot boi" attacking the Police Officer.
The body cam showing the Police Officer only doing what anyone else would do to save their on life.
Yes I know how big a pain the ass it will be to wear the Damn thing, but it could also save your bacon.
When that media attempts to demonize you, and the social justice warriors want your head on a plate, a few facts can be your lifeline.
Still, be safe out there.
J.J.
OT Eddie please dump georgeass back to Lt. and send him to 5, 6, 22.
He needs to do some real work.
Every officer who has to wear one should foia their body camera and upload it to YouTube. Let the world see the fine people for what they really are. Let them see these clowns fighting to go through their buddy's pockets as he lays dead after being shot, Or how they ignore multiple commands to disperse at a crime scene or to clear a path for an ambulance, or the best is when their young child is unresponsive and heading into the great beyond as cfd fights to save the kids life and mom and dad are on the couch watching tv without a care, as if it was just the plumber on a service call. The beauty of it will be that the media can't push their typical bullshit lies, it will be raw unedited shit storms. Maybe then we can finally win an argument for welfare recipients to be drug tested, and have the abusers get their money taken away.
Since many a teacher are charged with banging underage students... I DEMAND all teachers wear them as well.
Would someone please think of the children?!??!!
Time for alder-thiefs and mayor to practice what they preach. Live streaming to internet from their cameras. Let's all be able to see their daily productive work. That would be a true transparency and accountability.
Ok people, this is what you wanted...wait until momma with 4 kids in car gets stopped for traffic violation and has no license...Gee Officer, I only live two blocks away...sorry, gotta go in, car is towed, find something to do with kids....NO DISCRETION, you're on tape. Gee Officer, isn't there some other way we can settle this...wink wink.....NO DISCRETION, go to jail, do not pass go!!!!! Don't forget, the Police are the problem, right??!!!!
If he does in fact wear the camera, will not that footage be made available via a FOIA request? Guess it's time to find out how soon to submit such a request. Best behavior everyone, this is going to sting a little.
Its only 1 roll call training folks to be ready...asks the officers from 014...talk about a big F.U....its not like you get a lot of training on it...so pay attention.
City Counsel meetings should be broadcasted live. All faltermen should be miked up. Also live video from every faltermen's office. Faltermen have consevator of the peace statusand should show us by example
OK, how about a Rahm/Johnson bloopers reel, or out takes from Austin. I'd watch that.
wonder what the disciplinary action will be against any Ossifer who forgets to charge his body cam battery after it's drained down...Imagine it will start semi-severe & get severer as the months & years pass...imagine it would be a Felony to let you body cam battery go dead within 5 years...this is just another way to harass & punished uniformed ossifers
But think of all the hysterical behavior on the part of the citizens that will be recorded. That should be played on the news, documentaries and talk shows. The language and behavior of the youngest to the oldest would shock those untouched liberals to their core. (if they even have one).

the alderman also,and lets not forget rahms (what redlights we drive gas guzzling tanks and roll through we are rahms valets storm troopers), police detail? Come on talk about the "merit" testing this crew are getting anywhere from sergeants to commanders pay all being d-1 (patrolmen rank), and not mad but not happy they get the pension payout at that rate, Mike Lappe Kenny (I like steaks) Hauser what say you?
Whatever video that's on his camera should be undoubtedly rated triple X cause we all know he ain't got no time to be Poleec'n when mama is around....
Any comments on the pedophile cop who molested another cop's 9 year old daughter? Will the FOP assist her at all with the civil suit?
It would be very interesting if say he was wearing one(wire) already unbeknownst to maniacal midget that would give many to pause and wonder.......

To thoroughly review the answers and discuss any future crimes to commit
Stream all cameras straight to YouTube and use the proceeds to fund the pensions. Guaranteed to be top ten in the Nielsen ratings.

Not encountering bad guys...what about the mator, aldermen, precinct captains, commisioners, ...etc.
Just watch. Someone's not going to have enough time to turn on a camera when they get into a shooting in an ass puckering event and the community will call for his or her head on a pike for not turning their body camera on when it was not feasible or forgot because someone just pulled a gun on them. Then what? Are they going to be terminated because they forgot to turn the camera on?
O/T who is the judge dropping the charges in the police shooting case
What a typical non commital news release.
So the city is saying that they MAY get up to 450
cameras by Spring time. Well it is Spring time
folks. Who is producing these cameras that they
can not produce them in any mass quantities?
How about taking a few of the ones in service
now and start training officers in their use, so
when they do become available, they can be
put to use.
That being said, it appears that the city does not
want to implement body cameras for the obvious
reason that they will document the pink
elephant in the ghetto that the liberals do
not want anyone to know exists.
Where does all the money to fund this project come from instantly? I don't recall much hand wringing about how much it will cost. On the other hand, the city has not met it's pension obligations. There seems to be zero outcry by the public, politicians and our own union. Why?
4/11/2016 02:35:00 AM
At this point, cameras are still optional for police departments. HOWEVER, if they ask for and get the State grant money (from the state with no budget) then they have to use them and follow state law on how they're used. No state money, no state rules. It's all in PA 99-352, the same act that gave you the pedestrian stop system....Seventy six pages of light reading.

If by working you intend to continue to write ISR'S , Parking tickets, anovs , and / or locking up petty criminals then have at it. What would we do without your activity.......keep on working hard charger.
If that's what they want oh well, then the rules need to change that there should be a 20 to 30 second time chance to give offenders whom are fighting each other a chance to stop fighting before police can take action, without police jumping in, only if unarmed, and an anything else, police should back off contain the area and make it an automatic HBT situation to avoid officers getting hurt or killed, and to avoid them from legal liabilities...
Guess with these, no breaks for anybody. Everybody gets a ticket. Off-duty cops, Aldermen, judges, firemen, and family members of city workers. Punish everybody.
4/11/2016 06:47:00 AM
Why do you dumbasses keep posting this shit whenever in-car or body cameras come up? You still have discretion. Nothing says you have to give everyone a ticket. What is it about a camera that makes you think you lose your discretion for the everyday traffic stop? If you don't understand this, please don't even bother doing traffic stops. You're clearly going to get yourself and others in trouble, since you lack the ability to understand even the simplest of concepts.
“demonstrate our commitment to rebuilding trust with the residents we’re sworn to serve.”
Why are you only sworn to serve residents who don't pay taxes? What about the rest of the residents? Don't they "matter"?

The union keeps saying its a good thing. It's for our protection! Just a thought. When was the last time anyone at FOP worked a beat car? Not in a area, not the range not teaching but a blue and white. Why are they representing patrol? Maybe FOP should wear a camera too.

Think about it this way....
If you step out of the squad, or are in route to any Officer Assit call, just turn the darn thing on then. That ways it is on before shot hits the fan and your ass is covered.
Get into the habit of turning it on for the pedantic shit and it will become automatic.
We'll be seeing you on TV soon.
As you walk into MCC.
Since the Taxpayers paid for all those cameras and related equipment, and it is Public Property, and since I pay for a part of it, I demand that all body Camera CPD Videos be made public, and available for viewing online. I also demand that the Mayor, All Aldermen, all Politicians doing business with the city of Chicago, all Chicago Public School Teachers, all Chicago Firemen, and all Streets and San Workers, and any and all other City Employees wear body cams while on duty. I am entitled to this as a Taxpayer of the City of Chicago

SCC, you're tech-savvy guys. This is a tremendous opportunity for you. Bet you could even charge money for subscriptions. Terrific way to gather evidence about the real effects of liberal policies that pump money into the ghetto, too.
Call the next case. Not a cop.
Just watch.

4/11/2016 01:49:00 PM
========================================
Nope. Cameras have to have a 30 second 'before incident' buffer - so, just like the in car cameras, they are ALWAYS recording. They'll just take your camera and upload the whole thing, just like they do when they take the hard drives from the cars.
Eddie is bought and paid for...
Yawn....hibbity jibbity.
Make the tact teams wear the cameras I'm sure there is where the majority of lawsuits stem from. Make a pilot tact team.
GOOD!
The ACLU/#bl(a)m "Accountability For da Po-leece (ONLY)"
body cameras will be just in time for the 2016 Summer Shit-Show.
You m/fers think The Police are sitting on their
hands in self-defense, now?
Wait until July rolls around...
"Make da Po-leece DO SUMP'N!
Dey witholdin' all dey Po-leece
service from US!"
Or...
"Dey just aimin' dey cameras
at us an' not doin' dey job!
That ain't how it was s'posed
to go!"
Have no dialog with these shitbirds.
Just keep reminding them:
"This entire interaction is being recorded."
You know...
Kind of like how they shriek and howl
triumphantly while waving their camera phones
around like a magical talisman given them by
the local conjure man.
"Keeps Po-leece off ya!"
(Baron Samedi & Mistuh Tee-Hee say
"Hey," y'all!)
"Uh-huh! Puttin' all y'all ass up on
Yoo-Toob and gettin' y'all ass fired!"
LOL!
Everybody's got a camera and Policing
has been intentionally dragged to a stand still
in Chicago.
Bullshit and Fuckery crashing at an intersection
because m/fers thought it would be entertaining
if they cocked the traffic signals like those
assholes out of the 340 Building used to do.
Hopefully, these ignorant fucks at aclu/#bl(a)m
are going to be sorely disappointed that there will be
very few if any Policemen wadded up in the wreckage.
There shouldn't be any but you can bet there WILL
be some joyful hard heads still out there willing to
take a lick just to say the rest of everybody else is
a "dog" for re-orienting their priorities in the face
of being viewed as the enemy of the public.
Police like you have no friends...
Just sit back and be amused all summer long
as the smart people realize that they have no
answers other than beating on The Police because
they're the ONLY ones in the mix bound by law,
rules, regulations and conditions of employment.
The rest of everybody else prowls the streets of this city
with an assertive, in-your-face, confident, long-legged, swing-dick swagger
that says: "This is OUR M/Fing town!"
Let a Policeman not humbly genuflect upon the tops of
his shoes before his so called social betters.
You know, shit purposely turned upside-down and ass-backwards
just to separate The Police from the public good will for an agenda.
Well...
For all intent and purposes, they're correct.
This IS their town now.
Now watch.
The "Silent Majority" will soon start screaming
about how The Police "betrayed" them.
Thank Rahm and the aclu/#bl(a)m mob for that.
Work the job.
Retire.
Get a pension.
Escape.
Being a "stakeholder" means you
got chumped into holding a stinking
bag of shit that USED TO BE your
hard earned interest in the fate of this city.
Release the j-Fled commissioned Morale Survey now...
Everybody could use the laugh.
Right?
Or will that fuck up the artfully crafted
Police-Hater spin?

with a splash of Knob Creek 120 in it.
>Sssiiip!<
How about 450 M240Bs........
If one is on me I'm wearing it in court and on these fucking idiots domestics. I can't wait for FOIA to start showing the public what we see everyday. Get ready dcfs your going to be getting alot of children from there cracking head parents
6:48 A.M. like Fred G. Sanford used to say on Sanford and Son "Exactamundo" lmao . This brotha ain't gonna lie. These are some Jive Turkeys. Allen West for Presidents. My brotha.
Alder creatures should wear body cams They claim to work 16 hours a day
It should be available on tv for all to watch
We will learn how little they do for 120,000 a year + a few hundred thousand slush fund
FOP is leading the way! Leading by example showing the membership how to be FETAL. Yes FETAL, ducking and dodging questions from the members, avoiding contact with the members, doing as little as possible but still collecting a check with no aggressive actions against the police hating politicians or media. Their lack of advocacy, has direct correlation of productivity to be efficient and effective combating the false narrative that the police are a MOB like organization. If they speak up or hold the mirror low enough for the snakes to see the fork of their tongue they might lose the sweet gig that comes with keeping their mouth shut.
(OT) you look at headline how about man with weapons attempts to shoot police do their jobs bravo great job CPD:

To the poster who says fop is silent they put the meetings on line, email blasts, the news letter is now a quality magazine. What do you want a morning briefing like the president? Go to some meetings and ask some questions.
Plus, you have to have college to get on the job. $80 grand is not out of reach by any means, if you have a college education and experience.

Leaving out, just for a minute all the dept bullshit, cameras clout and whatever, you may not find that 80G so easy to replace. Where did you earn that degree? In what? Liberal arts? Communication? Business Administration? Minor in what? Sports medicine? Theater? Phys ed? If so, head on down to Starbucks, Best Buy and Target and talk to your fellow graduates while they ring up your purchases.
Maybe you have an education degree. Good for you. Try to get a job in the chicago area. CPS might hire you to teach at a grammar school in Altgeld Gardens, Englewood or in Austin. For 45g a year. There are plenty, and I mean PLENTY of ten year out of college grads who are not making 80g, and most of the ones working aren't in a job where doing the absolute minimum is tolerated like it is on the job. And dont tell me I'm full of shit, I retired with 28 years.
You may suddenly find yourself (if you are lucky) in a 50k job where you are held to a standard of performance to which many people are not accustomed. You may be able to put all series on the check off sheet, but in the real world if you spend hours, days and weeks doing nothing, they show you the door. As a retiree, I have sympathy for your frustration. But take a hard look at that resume' before you submi it. It may not be worth as much as you think.
Good luck, and stay safe.

Any comments on the pedophile cop who molested another cop's 9 year old daughter? Will the FOP assist her at all with the civil suit?
Why? Are you thinking of becoming a pedophile, or are you one already?
Who is the fool from 008 who got into a car chase with the doj in the backseat?
The End is near!!! Stay fetal my friends!!!
A supreme waste of money.
Money better spent? Tasers for everyone. (plus the training to use them right)
Money even better spent? Low-tech solutions. Billyclubs, Riot gear, effective tools to dish out some punishment (oh sorry, forgot Chicago went the route of politically-correct pussification on handling crime and criminals)
Can he activate it when Rahm goes on one of his rants. That would be interesting.
Make the tact teams wear the cameras I'm sure there is where the majority of lawsuits stem from. Make a pilot tact team.

===========================
Great idea, and the city 'could' do it. But guess what - State law says only those in uniform HAVE to have them....Hmmm.
I get a kick out of all these "FOIA the videos and show people all the ghetto behavior...". To what end? For what purpose? Do you really believe that, after watching some videos, they'll be a flood of support for police and outrage towards the savage's lifestyle? That after watching a few videos of what we deal with, every decent person in our society will join together as one and save this sinking ship we call Chicago with common sense thinking and voting? That seeing the crap that we are subjected to will convince them to repeal the law mandating we wear cameras? What the fuck do you think will happen by FOIA'ing these videos, geniuses?

You got to him before I did. He is clueless. 80 grand is not out of reach with college or experience!?!?! He sounds like me years ago. I was in grad school and had an internship. One of my classmates had a full-time job, same agency, and was in school part-time. I told her I would have no problem making 60k coming right out of school and that it just wasn't that hard. She laughed right away and wouldn't even argue. She just said okay. Three full-time jobs later and probably around 8 years later I finally hit 60k...as the police. I am probably making more money as the police than half if not more of my employed grad school classmates that stayed "in the profession" and I was in a top ten ranked program. Don't believe the hype.

Why would FOP assist with this? It's a matter to be handled in her in her personal life? This was an incident among "friends". She invited the guy over to her apartment for dinner and they got liquored-up. I do not defend anything he said, or did, or is accused of doing, nor do I blame her for pressing the issue criminally if in fact she believed he inappropriately touched her child. Remember folks, they were all covered up with blankets and the alleged witness was another child. But, as for your notion of a civil suit; for what? Was he in his official capacity? No. Was the City or the Department responsible for his actions? No. Why would FOP, or any union assist her? This is a personal matter among friends/acquaintances. You want to hold a 10-1 benefit for her too? Just leave it alone, it's no one's business and there is no assistance of any kind needed. They both need counseling; alcohol and psychological.

Guess with these, no breaks for anybody. Everybody gets a ticket. Off-duty cops, Aldermen, judges, firemen, and family members of city workers. Punish everybody.
4/11/2016 06:47:00 AM
Why do you dumbasses keep posting this shit whenever in-car or body cameras come up? You still have discretion. Nothing says you have to give everyone a ticket. What is it about a camera that makes you think you lose your discretion for the everyday traffic stop? If you don't understand this, please don't even bother doing traffic stops. You're clearly going to get yourself and others in trouble, since you lack the ability to understand even the simplest of concepts.

Thank you, but I bet this dope still doesn't get it.
supportive of your collective plight, just wonder, if Chicago is becoming a failed city, where do y'all imagine your pensions are going to come from? The PBGC?
450 Colt 6933s would be nice.
FYI, the Freedom of Information Act does not require the requester to identify him or herself or provide a physical address. Set up an email address, conceal your IP address with a VPN (or whatever is required) and FOIA to your heart's content. You can do what ever you want with the records received. So to those who propose that a Youtube channel of CPD video footage be created, it is perfectly feasible and absolutely legal.
They can't even get cameras that work in some of the stations and lock ups.... Really think this is going to go smoothly? HAH.
Any comments on the pedophile cop who molested another cop's 9 year old daughter? Will the FOP assist her at all with the civil suit?
You're talking about one case involving a cop. There are hundreds and hundreds of cases of teachers and faculty in our schools raping and sexually abusing their students who are minors, and getting caught with child porn. When a teacher gets charged the media puts these stories on page 9 for one day then they disappear. It happens regularly. And the states attorneys office only brings forth charges on somebody when they know they will get a conviction(e.g. DNA evidence). Think about the other cases that happen where no charges are filed due to lack of sufficient evidence. There are pedophiles in our schools raping and abusing students and the media is silent about it but when one cop does it it gets full blown media attention. They don't want to make educators look bad but they make cops look evil. Putting a stigma on cops is what the media specializes in. But other professions get a pass. They show you one story and bury hundreds of other stories. Classic pulling the wool over peoples eyes. If americans weren't so naive and were capable of critical thinking this wouldn't be happening.
