Nice Month You Had There

  • The Chicago Police Department on Wednesday released murder and shooting statistics for the month of May and the numbers present frightening increases in three major categories of violence.

    There were 66 murders in May, a nearly 40-percent increase from the 47 murders recorded in the same month last year.

    May’s murder count brings the total number of slayings in the first five months of the year to 243 — a 48-percent increase from the same time period of last year, when 164 people were killed, according to CPD.

    In May of last year, there were 264 shootings. This May, there were 318 shootings — a 20-percent jump.
Wow. Take a bow Eddie! Thank goodness there's a whole cadre of new lieutenants, many of whom have never spent a year in Patrol, waiting in the wings with all sorts of strategies for Patrol to follow. Good thing they know the intricacies of the job like the back of their hand....or Gene Williams' hand.

And Rahm, you deserve credit, too. Without your massive budget cuts shorting the Department nearly 2,000 officers from the 1990's and early 2000's, we'd never be at the point where the CPD couldn't man a single city-wide unit to respond to hot spots and put out the fires.

And who could forget Shortshanks? You started this disaster, relying on number crunchers instead of boots. And spending money on everything that caught your fancy for a minute rather than on the nuts-and-bolts of an actual city. And your parade of incompetent supervision, carried on by your successor. If we had actually planned on destroying a major metropolitan police force, we couldn't have done it any better than you did just through pure stupidity.

What will June bring?

This seems to be a party thing. At the local level democrat politicians are destroying the CPD. At a national level, a democrat president and his administration backed up by congressional democrats are destroying the American military and much else that is American.

Who says that the destruction of the CPD isn't planned ? Look at what is going on in the military . The sitting president was molded by elements of the weather underground . Not that much of a stretch , is it .

So are your saying Rahm lied to us SCC about putting more police on the street? Seems the opposite is true.

How can this be?
Rahm and "the community" "demanded" a black superintendent.
We've now got what they demanded yet violence is trending towards record levels..... how can this be??

Yup, it all started with Daley, with his shell game of a budget saying we had 12,000 officers when in fact we didn't , he was more concerned with bike lanes and flower pots than pension payments, the lack of testing within CPD, the pathetic parking meter and skyway scams I means deals, everyone around him was charged and convicted, can someone tell why this corrupt motherfucker is not in prison? Oh right

Remember they "have our backs." But Rahm won't fix our pension that he and his buddies destroyed. That's how much he cares about the job we do. Fixing our earned pension that we contribute to every pay check would be the simplest sign that they "have our backs."

Can't make this one up. Another fucked off "peace march" covered by ABC 7 News. All the organizers and participants wore t-shirts with a peace sign hand symbol. Nice, right? Well...that image just happens to be identical to the Playboy bunny symbol of the Vice Lords Nation. The color of the symbol is solid sky blue in disrespect to the Gangster Disciples. This is insanity and the freak-tard clueless media just plays along.

"If we had actually planned on destroying a major metropolitan police force, we couldn't have done it any better than you did just through pure stupidity."

I believe that it was a policy of the daley administration to gut the Police department of its manpower and resources to shift funds to other city departments without any oversite. It was also a way to cover the underfunding of the pension fund, with less Officers no one will notice the smaller if any payments to the fund. Daley was a dumb fuck but he knew how to fuck people over!

In this age of transparency, in which the media is clamoring for all our complaint histories, shouldn't the merit process also be transparent?? The media should be asking for, and the department make public, the process by which our tax dollars are used to make merit promotions and who is promoted through that process. Maybe the media could track their careers and where they were assigned? How long they stayed in one district or unit? what they did there?

In the interests of transparency, the media should FOIA request the list of sergeants accused of cheating on the lieutenant's exam. They should also know who sponsored said sergeants for merit promotion. Since due process is not really a concern of the department or the media, this list of accused cheaters should be made public. Just like all the complaints made against officers are made public.

As usual the anti-police propaganda movement continues seems these 2 bottom feeding lawyers want to influence the outcome of the Jason van dyke trial:

http://chicago.suntimes.com/news/special-prosecutor-to-be-appointed-in-van-dyke-murder-case/

Just a small excerpt:
Civil rights attorneys Locke Bowman and G. Flint Taylor, who filed a petition seeking a special prosecutor for both Van Dyke and other officers whose accounts of the shooting appear to be at odds with the graphic dashcam video, said they have asked Gaughan to consider four people from a list they compiled.

Taylor wouldn’t reveal any names but said that they have recommended to Gaughan a “blue-ribbon team” of African-American and “others” who are former judges or ex-federal prosecutors but have no connection to the State’s Attorney’s Office.

(So they picked out this "blue ribbon team" with prominent blacks collusion?)

This is the best part of the story:

Bowman said Gaughan doesn’t have to search for a special prosecutor downstate where there are limited resources.

“He could appoint a prominent, strong and capable individual from right here in Chicago . . . We hope and pray that Judge Gaughan will select a person of integrity and strength from right here in the city,” said Bowman, who was joined by a lawyer representing the Rev. Jesse Jackson, who filed a similar petition.

So don't want a possibly fair downstate prosecutor who may not be inundated daily 24/7 by the dishonest corrupt owned by rahm Chicago media! Then he was with jesse jacksons lawyers, the same jesse who tok millions in government taxpayers money and made budweiser (crap products) give his son their biggest franchise so he would not protest shakedown artists!

Again if you don't want to be next media sensation, everyday every hour stay fetal. The media has been showing that gorilla with the kid who fell in the zoo, we have coppers being fed to the media everyday but we are thrown into the lions den with no escape stay safe stay fetal your family depends on that!

Strict gun control that ONLY affects the law abiding leads to high violent crime rates.

Millennium Park! A perfect because it will be a millennium for it to be paid for! Just like the 400 million dollar unfinished high speed rail station. The 120 miilion dollar vacant decrepit south side hospial. The 55 million dollar park from a park. The ten thousand dollar a piece black metal garbage cans.

One of those cadre of new, clueless Lt.'s is none other than Eddie's fiancé Nakia Fenner.
She's got very, very little street experience to rely on.
She also cheated and scammed her way into the Lt. promotion.

Eddie seems unwilling to do anything about his fiancé being involved in the Lie-tenant scandal ..... C'mon Eddie: leadership, transparency and trust starts at the top.

I think Rahm is smart enough to know what the problems with today's policing are. He is political enough to know that he can't implement any solutions other then slogans without offending the pandered to community.

I feel sorry for the street cops in Chicago. They are trying to do the impossible. The pols don't really care, all those victims will be voting the party ticket for eternity. And none of them will ever want some of that walking around money the live voters do. It's a win win. And the folks from the "nice" neighborhoods won't say anything as long as they aren't mugged or shot. The really smart ones will leave for the burbs.
