And Here it Comes
- The Chicago Police Department should revamp its psychological exam and forgive minor drug offenses to attract minority police officers at a time of high crime and deep distrust, an influential alderman said Monday.
Ald. Roderick Sawyer (6th), chairman of the City Council’s Black Caucus, urged Mayor Rahm Emanuel to embrace at least some of the recommendations of the Obama administration’s Advancing Diversity in Law Enforcement initiative.
At issue is a report from the U.S. Department of Justice and the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission to push the recommendations made by Obama’s Task Force on 21st Century Policing.
The report suggests that police departments across the nation should disregard minor criminal offenses of candidates from “underrepresented communities,” revise the controversial psychological exam and lower the bar for written and physical exams.
Again, we thought that it was a selling point that a police department was staffed by non-criminals. Criminals serve on City Councils on the Cook County Board. Sure, you get your occasional criminal slipping through the screening process, but that's usually because they were sponsored by an aldercreature or other political entity. And once they get on the job, sometimes they're protected and promoted via the corrupt "merit" process, like certain members of the past and current command staff.
And that's not even taking into consideration the test cheaters who are an entirely different classification altogether.

This is a joke right
Can we have a Ghoul Pool going for the final murder reported on 31 December and what the total will be then?
If you do, my guess is 797 per Hey Jackass! We just fall short.
MPLS
Of course Obama is anti police, so anything he suggests must be taken with more than a grain of salt. The same goes for his DOJ.
Weren't the standards just lowered on the last test?
Some coppers now can't speak the King's English nor can they compose a sentence, much less print legibly.
If the application process is dumbed down too much the applicant will only have to sign their name. What am I saying?! Signing one's name would entail knowing cursive writing.
In the sea of bad ideas that is CPD, this is by far the worst yet. On a positive note 4 years till I can jump of this doomed vessel.
So then what about "non minorities" with past minor drug offenses? Will they get the same courtesy? Wouldn't it be better for them to work in "non minority" areas? I mean, I'm just sayin.
Nothing like druggies for dependable work colleagues.
Maybe Dart can find some rapists to assign to the Women's Jail too?
Since when do they do sit down question and answer psychological testing? I thought they used the MMPI. That doesn't have a single question about "baby daddies."
So I can piss hot now and it's going to be ok? As long as it's for cannabis that is...
What a joke this department is turning into! Four years can't come fast enough for me!!
This is getting ridiculous. These liberals scream of police corruption, accountability, and tons of other bullshit. Then, in the next breathe want criminals on the job. The bureaucracy in Chicago is scary.
"The soft bigotry of low expectations"
Cant not smoke weed...cant get IDs to vote. Cant afford 35$ application fee. Extra points for being a Chicago public school graduate. Answers/questions to exams! When is enough enough?! We have to keep lowering the standards to include the unmotivated, uncivilized, and unqualified because they are what the Democrats like to call "disenfranchised".
Best qualified. Best educated. Best skilled.
The yearning for diversity will end up getting people killed. Or a misbehaving officer who shouldnt have had the job. But the media and the "community" will be quick to condemn the WHOLE police force with a broad brush because of the actions of that individual who was allowed to slip through the cracks of lowered standards.
Ask...and you shall receive.
Can't wait to retire. This department is so fuck'd up and the city so corrupt. Why doesn't the federal government lower the standards on the FBI or SECRET SERVICE. Would Obama like some shit head guarding him or his family.
Can I assume at this point that, thanks to the MSM, the ACLU, and the Sarah Lawrence wunderboy, that the Chicago P.D. has so alienated qualified possible recruits that they have to ahem, slightly adjust their standards downwards to attract warm bodies?
What next, will parole officers give Chicago PD applications to convicts as they are released?
Chicago politicians need more police scandals to take focus off of their own corruption.
A slap to the face to all those that serve. This will destroy trust in the functioning communities. Nearsighted policy.
So, the community wants accountability with the CPD yet they also want to dumb down the requirements so as to allow the community jobs as police officers. How can one uphold the oath of office if one cannot abide by the laws that oath serves?
Who would have thunk that in 2016 this is where we would be?
You can't live here anymore.
You at least have to relocate to a red county, if for family reasons you can't leave for a red state.
The job is finish can't wait till the house is sold hope this summer
And they think the police department is corrupt now just wait and see what will happen when they hire all these low life's, will the aldercreatures and the mayor accept the blame for the hiring mess
I think they should change the requirement to play in the NBA. Must be under 5'10", over 40 years old and scored a least a 26 on the ACT. We need more diversity, right?

I guess it is fucking believable!
East Coast Copper
First, good job CPD Coppers. Stay fetal and protect your selves, they get what they deserve. NOTHING!
No matter time in, or time until your out. I would get while the gettin is good.
Can't wait to see these new cops on the street with their pants hanging off their ass and one hand stuck in their crotch!
Gee wonder if these 3 need a police job? Governors wife robbed at gunpoint wonder race of offenders?
http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2016/12/06/missouri-governor-elects-wife-robbed-at-gunpoint-three-suspects-arrested.html
Too bad he was not there a Navy SEALS wife hope he has some friends to make sure these punk thugs are never allowed to prey on innocent again!
Or you can increase the boundaries and get a better pool of candidates.
These new officers will be of no uses, attorneys will FOIA there application and see that they had a minor drug conviction and they will not be Creditable. Case will be dismissed. Does that mean that prior officers who were terminated for pissing hot for cannabis will now have an opportunity to file a lawsuit and return to duty. Will this be considered a Pre-Condition and they say well I can't stop smoking. If they are going to allow this, then I say no Random Drug testing for them. These group needs to drug once a month for there entire career. If those of us who don't smoke are being Randomly tested and they are not we should be able to Sue.
Obama will soon be out of office and can stop ruining this country come February
So we are taking our cues from the worst President of our time, possibly the worst in the history of the United States? Criminals welcomed to the ranks of the people that protect the people from......criminals.
Well, isn't that fashionable?
Stupid is, Stupid does!
Chicago DemocRATS!
I'm just glad Obama's group think people (Tom Perez et al) are gone as on January. Selective rules for "special" parts of population go against Equal Protection clause of 14A; end of story.
Sawyer can scratch my balls.
It would be a direct slap in the face of every officer current and retired. Black and white, brown, yellow and rainbow who came on this job clean. I'm a minority, came from a rough neighborhood and stayed away from the criminal element. Every officer who came on this job as I did knows how hard it was to stay out of trouble. For the department to tell me I have to sit in a car with a piece of shit loser from community college is unacceptable. Keep the trash off the job, we already have enough with the lowest minority exempt leadership.
Brown Proud and NOT one of THEM!
How about doing away with the power test too? Fatties need jobs also.
Well I guess we can get rid of all those EARNED NOT GIVEN posters hung around the stations.
I'm sorry, but what does it say about the minority community that the bar needs to be lowered? If I were a member of that community I would be offended that our own president doesn't think they are good enough.
Great and you can send every minority drug user right back to the neighborhood where they came from. Give a mass transfer to every white and brown officer out of the ghetto. I would love a chance to in a area that better reflects my race.
Let them lower the standards. By doing so anyone rejected for these infractions in the past can sue.
Didn't you just know this was waiting for after Hillary was elected. How many days until January 20? Reminds me of the old "barn boss" tradition in jails.
Don't they realize the potential liability for knowingly hiring (and assisting) the criminal element to be in a position for wrongdoing? Worth big bucks.........the lottery will be expanded!
The police need the trust of the public. There needs to be stringent qualifications to become a police officer. There is NO room for criminals in this profession. They have already proved to all that they are unable to resist temptation and do things for their own benefit at the expense of others, (victims).
The last thing we as a society should ever do is to hand over trust and power to those who have proven they will abuse it. This is another attempt to attack the credibility of all police officers. Presently, Nationally, The police have the second highest rating from our public for trust. We are only one percentage point from the highest police rating back in the early 60's. Not bad for all the bad press that we have been getting. (maybe the public is sick of the one sided crap too).
The left can't handle that we are trusted and must destroy everything that works. Hell, lets flood all police departments with former crooks, (That's gonna really make things better, said the liberal politicians the Marxist, BLM members and malcontents). Thank God, (capital "G") the liberals lost the presidency, Hang in there Chicago resist with all your might! We from other departments are looking for you to put up the first defense against this obvious attack! Black officers should be offended, the liberals feel that they can't find enough qualified recruits from the population. Hmmmmmmm maybe if you stop running the country down saying the the USA sucks and is inherently racist you might build love in ones country and therefor instill civic pride and obtain the qualified officers of color. Don't you dare insult the fine officers of color that I have already served with for the past 38 years by slapping them in the face with this crap.

Correction. They don't teach cursive writing in public schools anymore
New rule: all P.O.C.'s should immediately become Sergeants. Alll non-P.O.C.'S of rank should be reduced back to Police Officer. They obviously do not do a good job of supervising. Any new P.O.C. that gets hired (regardless of drug use or criminal history) go right into Sergeant School. The New CPD should be like the military. There are two paths. The Officer (White Shirt) path for P.O.C.'s. And the Non-Officer (Blue Shirt, worker) path for non-P.O.C.'s.
As if I'm not already embarrassed enough by roughly 5% of my co-workers in law enforcement.
Jesus effing christ.
Not that anyone is going to listen, but valid, utterly repeatable, psychological studies have confirmed the things in childhood development which yield stable, socialized, stress-tolerant individuals.
If someone has grown up with:
-a single rage-a-holic mom
--who didn't read to you at night
--and had a revolving door of boyfriends
---which led you to "self medicate" with weed and other drugs
----which clouded your mind enough to collect a criminal record of ANY kind
You are NOT fit to handle the stress of crisis situations in which YOU are supposed to be the emotional rock in the shit-storm. You missed the window in which your basic physiological stress fitness was supposed to develop.
That may not be fair, but it's true.
All part of the Progressive Center Left types to destroy America.
What about GA from 011 a few years back
Lowering standards to employ more minorities worked wonders for the Post Office, the Chicago Transit Authority, the utility companies and the Harvard Law Review. What could possibly go wrong if potheads were given police powers?
Will the last man out forget about turning out the light and flush the toilet that Chicago has become instead.

Questions will have to be read to the illiterate derelicts.
Been there done that, check out the call of 86. A judge made the city hire a bunch without using a criminal background check as a hiring tool to reject applicants and it turnout to be a major mistake.
I think my 4 yr old grandson could pass the test now. Dumb it up more and a 2 yr old will be able to. Not that have brains which most candidates won't. Did 30 yrs I wouldn't recommend this job to a slug
Can wait to supervise these qualified officers down the road. Wow!!
Well I'm sure the north shore is underrepresented on Chicago Police Department, and I know a lot of those rich north shore schools have the highest drug abuse. So now they have a chance to be a Chicago police officer something to fall back on if the economy in Illinois rooms the business their parents inherited , sounds fair to me.
Does the Afican-American community, especially those who work their asses off to get ahead, ever get sick of alderman telling them that they're stupid and need help to get ahead?
This is the biggest fucking joke in law enforcement history. Lower standards of criminal and psychological background checks, so we can hire more black people. Absolutely mind blowing. This day in age, when police are getting crucified for every single good shooting we're in, they want to hire criminals and nutjobs just so, we look more like the criminals and nutjobs we deal with.
So, on one hand, they types that come up this drivel complain about the high arrest/incarceration rate within the minority population for nonviolent drug crimes and use those numbers to say the system is broken and somehow rigged against minorities. Then on the other hand, they seem to be saying here that minorities are are more likely to have committed low level drug offenses? And the solution is to rig the hiring system?
This is clearly the solution to all our problems! Hire drug using nutsjobs! Eureka!
Now this just fits with making people who are engaged in criminal activity & end up getting shot into somekind of class hero
Why is Fop not repling to this? Don't we have an interest here. Who wants to be working next to gang bangers.
I don't see what the big deal is. Anybody that wants this job nowadays has to be either crazy or on drugs... or both. This is probably the only way we get to keep the pension on life support. Hire away. Stay Fetal. Parkers and Movers stay on management.
Hey watch Secretary could you not have me work a car with ppo underrep.
Why, what happened?
Oh nothing. At least not recently. But 5 years ago I wrote a search warrant on his house and killed his dog. He then flipped on his best friend and they pled him out to a misdemeanor and I am sure you can figure out the rest.
Oh I am sure he forgave you, we all wear blue right?
I don't care about that. I ain't working with no snitch
Bwahahahahahaha
Well, it's hard to find a person guilty of filing a false report, if they can prove they don't know to write, so they have that going for them.
Great. 3 years from now, some banger is going to try and kill me. When I draw my weapon, the new guy will "intervene, because the offender is his gang leader.
PPO: Are you printing the offenders rap sheet for an upgrade?
FTO: No, I'm printing yours.
May as well drop the college requirement too.
May as well drop the college requirement too.
This is a total slap in the face of any underserved community member on this or any other job.
Lawd have mercy!
In what Universe can we say "at a time of high crime and deep distrust" and in the same sentence say we need to lower the standards of Police hiring???
There must be something in the water in Chicago...
I was gonna get a Job...But I got High.....
So are they saying minorities are druggies?
Been on the job 20 plus years and always questioned the accuracy of the psych. I remember being called in to talk about my psych answers and being questioned about the fact that I grew up in a minority community and never tried cocaine. Needless to say I have achieved rank over the years via my test score and NO I did not cheat.

The pathology of a failed
community having been
given influence WAAYY
above their actual and
constructive contribution
to the overall well-being
of society...
All because a twisted and
malignant little manling is
ruining everything within
his vile and stunted grasp
to keep himself in power.
Psychopathy?
Megalomania?
Was he inadequately fathered?
Or just simply mis-mothered?
We're all paying the price for the
ugly that lurks in the corners of
that inflamed and feverish little
organ he claims as the seat of
his reasoning and intellect.
Once again Sound Bite Education is accepted as Reality! Just as many Americans were Shocked to realize that we do not elect Presidents by direct vote, there are still some of us Ignorant or Naive enough to think that everyone is suited to be the police. Yes, the Police should represent the community they serve. However, that is not intended in the literal sense. Police should be the Best Qualified, Motivated and Suited to serve, but they SHOULD AND MUST NEVER REPRESENT ALL OF SOCIETY, BECAUSE A PORTION OF SOCIETY IS MENTALLY AND PHYSICALLY NOT SUITED FOR THE MISSION! And to imply that Black officers will do a better job in the Black community is also false. Anecdotal as my over 30 yrs. on "Da Job" may be, it seemed that Black cops were harder on Black suspects because they felt embarrassed by the conduct of Black miscreants. Finally, how can we become One People and One Nation if we remain Tribes. Chicago Democrat Politics has a long history of slating candidates based on ethnic names to appease a specific group. This Push to hire Black recruits is a very negative move, on a City already divided by Race. Fuck Rahm & His Wilmette Values! Baby"G"
So when I arrest someone four or five years back they get hired and may one day become a supervisor over me.
Just so I understand how this happens and that if I can think of it it may come true.
Why in the Hell would you want to lower the standards of Police Officers? We have enough problems with the connected people we have right now. CRIMINALS AS POLICE OFFICERS WHAT A GREAT IDEA. They should higher the standards and quit catering to the CRIMINAL ALDERMEN. HOW DUMB CAN YOU BE!!! What a shame this department has become.
Lunatics running the asylum.
As 4:44 am above stated - a slap to the face to all those that serve. Not to mention a slap to the public - who wants a criminal policing their area?
Yes, Obama, lower standards for Secret Service and see how you and your buds like it.
Didn't an aldercreature suggest having blacks police blacks and vice versa? That will really help race relations! Those idiots do not like the police no matter what the stripe.
Rant off.
--No Cop Here
How about the FBI and other federal law enforcement agencies leading the way!
They have already dumbed down the Department, look at the Supt and his ilk.
Can't wait to fucking retire! In fact, Im going to start job hunting now. Benefits suck on this department. Our FOP is a complete joke. They let the midget step all over them. Useless fucks!
This whole thought process is liberal rot and is exactly what is causing our country to falter. Standards exist for a reason, to accomplish a task or achieve a goal it is realistic to expect the ones doing the job to be qualified. For one thing this is why the "catered to" community is regularly victimized , by buying into the garbage spewed by Preckmonster and Rahma Doma Ding Dong , the same predators are released over and over to victimize the law abiding. Secondly the "community is entitled to a certain level of service which is predicated by the standards of the hiring process . Lets face it you can have a Morton's quality steak if you use Denny's buyer's and standards right ?
Plus the "minorities" who made thru and met all the standards should be the ones screaming the loudest. They accomplished their goal and knew what it was going to take to achieve it. Hell why do the homework or bother to care if it's all gonna end up being graded on a curve..... Would ya want a CFD Paramedic working on you in your time of need who got on do to diminished standards , who couldn't pass th test or pissed hot .............Yea thought not
Police should be held to a higher standard.....except when they are hired.
Puff, puff pass. Don't bogart that joint.
Once a gangbanger - always a gangbanger.
What's a minor drug offense? Selling or using or both?
Although I do believe that Rahm has a soft spot for minor drug using individuals.
I don't know how low and far the City will stoop to appease the community, seems nothing is off the table to advance this whole diversity bullshit.
Random drug testing should be expanded to include income and property audits, credit ratings, government entitlements and financial holdings. Before and during city employment at all levels. It's a big wish for a Sanctuary City and a half wit run Department.
Guess the only thing the media can cover is the thieving crackhead alderstooges who can't get their wards in order, blame the Police for the problems and have absolutely no accomplishments to legitimize their positions.
Why not assign murderers to Homicide? After all, they will have experience.
Do you remember the "cha- cha" police?very interesting group. Some great guys and some hoodlum types too.and... why would anyone listen to a word Obama says?
Now dealing will be done with a badge --- 1122 that are 4 male black in light blue shirts with guns yelling blows to passing motorists caller believes they might be the Police use caution.
If this passes, how about also making exclusions for first-offense misdemeanor drunk driving?
03:09am, you are absolutely correct! Would he want his daughters to be "protected" by a pothead?
We have to lower the hiring standards in order to hold the officer accountable at a higher standard. Very logical
What an incredibly racist thing for the alderman to say.
Where's my fop book?
Harold lowered the standards in 85-86....look and see how many of the Class of 86 went to jail!!!
The progs watered down the military by favoring women in combat units and open LGBT as a way of weakening a traditional bastion of patriotic conservative values.
Now they want to water down and dilute police depts also. As the Joker would say, "it's all part of the plan".
6 more weeks, libtards. Then the past 8 years gets washed away in a hundred days. Go and play with your toys, time to let the grown ups deal with this mess you've made.
Bad news for us is, nothing will change in Chicago or Illinois. This county and city went 80% for Hillary, and Dems won all major offices in city and county unopposed or overwhelmingly if opposed by a candidate. Kim Foxx (two "x"s!) anyone?
For things to change in Chicago, the Democratic party Machine in place here since 1930 will have to be systematically destroyed by a combination of corruption investigations/prosecutions into all branches of city and county government (executive, legislative, and judiciary), and destroying this "sanctuary" for illegal immigrants/voters.
Doubt that will happen though. Easier to let Chicago degenerate into another Detroit.
The libtards here don't think anything is wrong, they will just double down on their nonsense come election time.
How is this not racism? Reverse discrimination?
Apparently our brain dead "leaders" are hellbent on making us the next Detroit.
Fuck you Rahm.
Fuck you Special Ed
Fuck you aldermanic black caucus
So wait. I'm a White male and have a "minor drug offense", and I'm NOT eligible to be hired, but the Black and Latino guys are?
SO special Ed doe not want guys with beards at department award ceremonies even if they have the medical reason or are undercover types. (But he does not say anything about hiring X bangers)
Yet an ass hat president and goofy ass alder-creatures want the bar lowered so pot heads can get in.
So if anyone pisses hot it should only be a few days suspension its no big deal.
I travel alot 26 states have some sort of legal weed am i breaking a law?
If i purchase a legal female prostitute in Vegas am i breaking a rule?
Hey Alderman raise the age limit a person can apply to this bullshit ass JOB.
Drop the fake lie detector test.
And bring back the in house investigation for future recruits.
Finally raise the salary RAHM this aint a fast food joint and some skills are needed. People apply to jobs based on salary and benefits.
Who cares I don't Iam selling the house and out of Chicago retired policeofficer
"A slap to the face to all those that serve. This will destroy trust in the functioning communities. Nearsighted policy."
Isn't it obvious that this is exactly the point? The Alinskyite left would like nothing more than to replace regular police forces with a political commissariat that answers only to the inner party, and this is part of that master plan. A year or two after it goes into effect there will be a wave of "COPS PROVEN TO BE CRIMINALS" headlines in 200 point font when details about a few of the new recruits' unsavory hobbies magically appear in the hands of media blowhards.
What is the worst that can happen?
The BLM already says you are all criminal racists murdering their chillun. The city waill actually give them Criminal police officers.
The only problem for me? How do I tell the two apart? Who am I going to run into when I visit Chicago? I guess I just won't visit.

Top cop: 'Chicago is not out of control' — just parts of it are violent
http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/breaking/ct-dart-johnson-city-club-crime-met-20161207-story.html
From the story:
Their greatest fear is being caught on the street without a gun," he said. "It's not that they'll get caught with a gun and then they gotta go to prison. It's that they'll be caught out there without a gun and they'll be the next dead person."
Johnson described his department as getting off to a "rocky start" this year because of the continued fallout from the Laquan McDonald shooting by Chicago police but said the department had "righted the ship" despite the skyrocketing number of homicides.
Chicago has righted the ship, come on boss who are you shitting! the blood is everywhere, tommy and stupid toni are letting criminals out at a rapid pace, and kimmy is promising less felony charges but a rapid investigation into police shootings! Stand up man tell kimmy to sit the fuck down, talk to the dishonest media 24/7 attacking police officers and this is what you say! Why are you lying? Did the examscam2016 fog your brain more! Tommy is tearing down the jail because the criminal thugs are being released rapidly to cause more murder and mayhem are you blind? Your mad eddie according to the article at Trump telling the truth! Look at your boss the ballerina protecting the illegal invader criminals even using 1 million in "found" tax money to hire lawyers (Connected of course) to defend the federal laws being violated!
Why not wonder how much the esteemed alderman will get under the table cash?
Sick n'Tarred Special Ed ...
Live from the City Club of Chicago Pancake Breakfast (again?); "Seven hundred and eleven people have been murdered in the city of Chicago to date. Seven hundred and eleven lives, 711 families that won't get to see their relatives for Christmas this year."
(at his side was Empty & Demolished Jailhouse Dum-Lib Dart) . Special Ed wants tougher gun laws (never of heard that before again) not mentioning the empty jails and lenient sentencing.
Speaking to a group of pandering big buck liberals, he sure has a lot of bacon and eggs on his plate. Of the 711 murders, just how many were thugs themselves who didn't have a chance to kill someone or were killed in retaliation ? Very few innocent victims, maybe 3-4%.
He goes on to say that in 2 years he hopes to add on 350 Detectives to clear the violence. (Replaces 250 retirees thru 2017) Probably going to downsize or eliminate parts of RBT/SVU/Financial and B&A first in order to get some bodies into HGS.
This guy and his posse are so full of shit.
The detective division is the new dumping ground for incompetent Henny Penny. Right from the supt who wants more diversity. Fathead Ed, you alone are responsible for the downfall of the CPD.
So the psyche exam has been deemed racist towards blacks?!!!
Are they actually saying that not only are the Police racist, but Psycologists are too?
Is this county going to cow tow to a few black peoples failings on everything?
Sometimes you are just wrong or not good enough. You should've learned this as a kid.
What about all my brother Coppers who are black. How did they pass the psyche? They earned the right to wear the star and by lowering standards you are going to make people question whether they actually belong here or not. They don't deserve that.
How is the black race ever going to know if they are on an even playing field with other races, if we keep lowering the bar. How can this help motivate the slackers to get their act together?
Someone,anyone, explain to me how a fricken psychological exam can be unfair to one race and one race only.
I gotta get out of this town. Is it wrong to be counting down the days until retirement with 9yrs left?!!
Under the name tag will be their gang designator.

I would advise Alderman Sawyer to watch what he says in case he wants to end up in federal prison or much worse the police that are already on this job turn against him, Kim Foxx and anyone else who comes up with dumbass ideas like this. There are many other tax payers and ethnicities other than BLACK PEOPLE in Chicago that would like to know their Police are trustworthy, drug free(which includes past drug use), and non-gang members.
It is not the fault of society that "some black people" cannot raise their kids properly, as there are black people who go to work everyday and raise their kids right to be productive members of society. It makes me want to think that these drug dealers and thugs who fund many a black or white alderman's political coffers and politicians as well, are being offered these jobs to the police, so they can be able to "watch he backs" so to speak of other drug dealers and gang members.
Let us not forget "21st century vote" "Gator Bradley" and the time the Gangster disciples street gang infiltrated the Chicago police Department, now a sitting President by the name of Obama will assist in bring great strife and bring all Police Departments especially this one to their knees and rob the good citizens of law and order.
Use of force policy not enough:

Why even carry a gun? Lets play fireman, we stay in the station (but they have to Armour it bullet proof etc) we get called we respond we could just jump on a cta bus with a bullhorn, get to the call and yell from a safe distance "police stop right now" get back on bus (ask kind bus driver to wait) back to district rinse and repeat!
The class of 1986 had numerous problems with unqualified recruits. In fact the chief at the academy graduated in 1986. Maybe calling the academy a "factory" is appropriate since they will lower the standards for new recruits. HR openly admits that membership in a street gang is not a reason to disqualify a applicant. That is covered under free speech. Maybe we need to hit rock bottom before things will change?

This is the biggest fucking joke in law enforcement history. Lower standards of criminal and psychological background checks, so we can hire more black people. Absolutely mind blowing. This day in age, when police are getting crucified for every single good shooting we're in, they want to hire criminals and nutjobs just so, we look more like the criminals and nutjobs we deal with.

yeah lets hire more white guys like Finnegan, Miedzianowski, Abatte, Burge, Mowry, etc. They have to lower standards because AN EDUCATED PERSON OF ANY COLOR doesnt want this job. The only people that do are people who use this as a stepping stone, cant find anything better, or have been wanting to be the police since kids. With the latter getting smaller everyday
Its a strange strange world we live in Master Jack
They should revamp the psychological test but not take drug offenders, even minor drug offenders are despicable.
I'm sorry, but what does it say about the minority community that the bar needs to be lowered? If I were a member of that community I would be offended that our own president doesn't think they are good enough.
Well you're an idiot, because they don't give a shit and you should know better.

The detective division is the new dumping ground for incompetent Henny Penny. Right from the supt who wants more diversity. Fathead Ed, you alone are responsible for the downfall of the CPD.

Did I hear wrong, that she slapped a detective in the ladies' room when she was a sergeant in the detective division?
(OT) now this who is payday for this nonsense:

If at first you don't succeed... Play the race card.
But I saw mister Ed from 012 on tv
We are in a position of trust and and difficult decisions. Bad decision process and risk takers is now what they want. Drug dealers, alcoholics, gamblers and are addicts are now welcome as police officers. I'm just glad I'm moving. I hope it can all hold up until I leave.
Hate to tell you all this, but as a recruit in the academy seeing the new classes begin, it's already happening. 75% minorities and females, most who have no idea why they want to be a police officer. The lowering of standards will effect us all.
merit sergeant TQ got on the job with a criminal past....increased his criminal record as a PO...then meritorously promoted
All men are created equal... Sometimes.
The inmates truly are running the asylum .
This is BS. Total disrespect to everybody on the job, especially the minorities who went thru the process. Instead of pushing for higher standards, the department will take a step back with this dumb idea. How is this supposed to help the department rebuild its image? We are talking about police jobs here not fastfood jobs where stoners somehow can't even get the order right.
obama used drugs and became President so why not the police. Light up, chill out and stay fetal. Or you could try meth if you want to work 24/7 or maybe heroin to kill the pain of being the po po. Most of the command staff has to be on drugs already along with the mayor and the dimwitted voters that keep voting for the democrats.
This would be akin to hiring Rats to work in the Rodent Control Program.....................
Good move. Why should the spots for the criminal and psychologically challenged be limited to exempt rank? They'd have an easier time leading blue shirts that have a similar background.

That is total racism on display. They will be on the streets soon will they cower and run? No idea why they want to be police? maybe these snowflakes graduated a mediocre college and could not find a job paying this type of money and took this job, when they hit the streets they will shit their pants and quit as the cycle continues!
Wonder how many are connected to reverends and alderman?
i guess if rham highers more goofballs he can pay them less.
lower standards lower paid and benifits.

GA major gang ties, almost got killed by days officer while walking his pit carrying a gat in his waistband
last heard he was assigned to 35th St.
I may be just to dumb to be on this job anymore.
It sounds like sawyer feels there are no honorable blacks without criminal records , no law abiding blacks want to join CPD to help other blacks , yes hire black criminals that can shake down or arrest their competitors in the drug sales .
What is his problem , if it wasn't for his dad he would be doing exactly what , loser .

May as well drop the college requirement too.

Drop the college requirement but keep no criminal record or previous drug use.
