The War on Cops Continues
- Chicago’s yearlong shooting rampage picked up steam over Christmas weekend, leaving 61 people shot, 11 fatally. Seven were killed on Christmas Day alone, more than on the three previous Christmases combined, according to the Chicago Tribune.
Gangbangers targeted each other’s holiday gatherings as if in deliberate mockery of the season. Two young girls were shot while sitting in a van at 11:30 p.m. Monday by a presumed gang rival of the younger one’s father.
So far this year, 4,334 people have been shot in Chicago: one person every two hours. Almost all the victims have been black. The police have shot 25 people, virtually all armed or otherwise dangerous — less than .6 percent of the total. That disparity between civilian and police shootings hasn’t stopped local Black Lives Matter activists from continuing to claim that it’s the cops who are the biggest threat facing Chicago’s young black men today.
If there’s any silver lining to the violence, it will be if it acts as a wake-up call regarding the de-policing and decriminalization movements sweeping the country. Chicago is Exhibit A in what happens when the police back off from enforcing public order, having been told that maintaining control of the streets constitutes racial oppression.
Special Ed claims we're "still policing" despite all evidence to the contrary:
- street stops down from 159,000 in 2015 to 21,000 in 2016
- property crime skyrocketing in formerly "quiet" areas
- arrest down tens of thousands
- a 20% homicide clearance rate
The list is near endless, and the price is paid in bodies.

Yet no one is calling for Johnson to be fired? Why not? He's clearly in way over his head.
She's not on Rahm's payroll...
The homicide clearance ..18.4% lowest in America ..Where is Sabina's Fr Faker ??? Where is stupid cupich ?? waiting to blame black shootings on Mt Greenwood ?
Leave it to a New York reporter to tell the truth about Chicago crime. Then again, Rahm's email shows that stories for print go through him first. Let's see if 2017 can be worse than 2016. Is 900 a no-brainer? 1000 not out of the realm of possibility?
I think we can do even better in 2017. How about shooting for less than 10,000 street stops?
Answer: Empower the Police.
Whats a street stop?
Off topic, I apologize.
Just saw the list of new Lts.
Noticed one name on the list, with her brother.
Long time ago she asked an amazing question at roll call.
Funniest boss I ever knew said, later in the office, she could giggle her way through a sex act that usually occurs in the back seat of a car.
I miss the old bosses.
There are are still coppers that know how to put guys on the hood.....wtf....koolaid drinkers all over dept(most white shirts). Every good cop leaving job. Jan20?
The "street stop" is KEY to the reduction of violence. period.
"Ideally, mothers and fathers would rein in their children and instill discipline and self-control. But in the absence of two-parent homes, it falls to the police to maintain civil society. Chicago will not put a lid on the growing violence until the police believe they’ll be supported in their mission of bringing public order to the thousands of upstanding, hard-working residents of the South and West Sides."
This is also an excerpt from that article from the NY Post by Macdonald. Hits it right on ..
Does not the guys and gals in blue jeans and "mission teams" still do "street stops"? How about female's assigned to headquarters or other bs positions. They have been on the bench.....Its time for some fresh legs to hit the street. If not, start bangin me.
From the article, "Ideally, mothers and fathers would rein in their children and instill discipline and self-control. But in the absence of two-parent homes, it falls to the police to maintain civil society." Little do pols, SJWs, or other
do-gooders realize the truth in the above statement having never had to be the parent of those without a moral compass. How many times have we answered a call where the plea is, "make my child go to school", "my child won't listen", "make my child do this" or "stop my child from doing that". And we should have to be the parent. Then we meet the same person standing on a corner/curb hanging out pitching drugs or riding around looking for another victim to shoot. God knows the pols, SJWs and other do-gooders want no part of that dirty business. So it falls on the beat cop. And without the beat cop keeping order in a bankrupt community the results are clearly evident.
Well the network news stations just talked about how the CPD is going to equip more police with body cameras. They didn't talk about the high crime rate and the communities that are killing each other. Well maybe cameras will lower the crime rate. Stay fetal stay safe and back each other up.
“Former Chicago top cop blames city’s spike in violence on politicians' interference with police business”
It would appear that McCarthy didn't know that political meddling in CPD is business-as-usual here.
It's too bad no one warned him that the job of superintendent includes taking all the blame when things go bad, and giving all the credit to the mayor when things go well.
Could he really have been that naive? Had he not heard about Chicago politics before coming here? Did he think, "It can't be that bad"? Did he believe that he could overcome it?

For all you newer officers reading, don't fall for ANY supervisors bullshit about bringing in more activity, you can still be the police, we appreciate what you do, if something goes wrong we'll take care of you blah blah blah. Do only what you need to do to keep your job which should only be the bare minimum. Don't over expose yourself and put yourself more at risk.
"....having been told that maintaining control of the streets constitutes racial oppression....."
-----------------------------------------------------
THIS is BS. Time to get rid of all the "do nothing" Mayors and City Councils. Chicago may be Exhibit A, but there are other cities run by Democratic Mayors and councils that have become Exhibits B,C,D and E as well.
Just watched a segment on San Francisco and their growing "Homeless" situation. Scratch that place as a vacation idea.
Time for people to take back the streets OR close down the streets and let Chicago and other places become a walled-off prison area like in "Escape From New York".
There are ways to turn around Chicago, but it takes some real leadership and that is NOT happening with who you have in place in the Mayor's Office, the bloated City Council, and the Command Staff of the CPD. (not to mention the Cook County "all-stars")
The answer is not "spend more money", the answer is, "Crack down on this mayhem and crack some heads." Can CPD even field a task force that is up to the task? Equipment, attitude, and training wise?
And, I like the idea of cutting off ALL entitlements when "the children" act up and cause damage. The reason nothing is stopping is that there is no consequence for bad behavior.
The latest "Mall Brawl" action demonstrates to all suburbanites that the violence can come right to where you shop.
Eventually, they will have another one of these "Mall Brawls" and some old people will pull out their guns and start firing. That's when all the ghetto Moms will come out and ask, "Why did they kill my babies? They were just funnin' "
Don't think it won't happen? That is the only thing that will make it stop.
More out-of-touch politicians need to be replaced. The last Election was only the beginning.
Math is not their strong suits so.....
"Young girls in a van at 11:30PM got shot"....
Ummm, anyone remember the old WLS Public Info Spot "Do You Know Where Your Kids Are?" - it'd come on about 7:00pm...
Yeah, so why the hell are young'uns out in 'da community' which is more dangerous than Middle East warzones, at 11:30PM, and "in a van"...
Call my cynical, but I doubt they were the innocents they were made out to be... probably hookin' for 'da gang'... But you can't publish that on the LameStream Media outlets - liberals heads would be exploding...
OT - SCC you were mentioned several times in an article in the Dec 16 / Jan 17 issue of Readers Digest regarding policing in America. Keep up the great work!!
20% clearance rate? That would mean 5%...because the other 15% are confessions. You can keep the dic spot, I'm good.
And you know what??? That Jeanie ain't going back in the bottle.
isn't this area is also governed by ignorant race baiter and police basher County Commissioner Richard Boykin. In his time as commissioner his area has had the most citizen on citizen violence crime deaths yet he still blames police.
In 010 where you can go from midnights to 3rd watch just because you have clout. Where females always go home early.
Yes everything is down & how can anyone in their RIGHT MIND do any Pro-Active policing these days with every city politician pandering to the pack of LYNCH MOB POLIC HATERS/STREET GANG MINISTERS, A NEWLY ELECTED STATES ATTORNEY who views every police action as SUSPECT WRONGDOING and our own MEDIA WHO IS BLANTLY BIASED TOWARD LAW ENFORCEMENT with every lawbreaker that CRIES OUT POLICE MISCONDUCT..... Not from me ---Not anymore ! ! !
Who ever said there isn't any value to the dead bodies in Chicago? Just ask the twerp rahm how many dividends have paid off for him...
Just remember to get those "Rham" signs in your front yard and remind everyone to vote... "demoncrat".
Maybe a tax increase and tuffer gun laws will solve this .....
Vote for democrats this is what you get
Stay safe stay feral
Bring back gun court. One or two judges responsible for all gun cases. Hang em high!!!!!!!
The bundles of protoplasm with no moral compass, no family structure, live-in-the-moment narcissists, egged on by a "no consequences" culture are feeling no pressure from the law, the courts, or the communities.
Andy Rooney
You get what you paid for. This is what they wanted, this is what you will get. The ferguson effect. Wait till next year, I bet the homicides hit 900.
Funny how all the out of town papers can connect the dots but our two local rags are still spouting the BLM crap that the police are the enemy and the reason why crime is out of control.
Its what they want. Pull police out of communities like Englewood. Let they themselves steer the rudderless ship.
Still way too many street stops, some knuckleheads will never learn,and I won't buy a ticket to your going to jail party.
I think that the question everyone has been asking is why does the current Superintendant still have a job
he is still here why????
This is what happens when you let liberals stick their noses in where they don't belong.
Steve Patton, Miss Gulch, ACLU, & BLM are the Bureaus running CPD-- aka-- rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic.
So dare I say that we are actually sticking together on something? Or is it that the staying fetal movement has just caught on well enough to make a difference? Smart coppers know this movement will allow them to survive and keep their family's fed while avoiding prison for doing their jobs. In either case, what a fucking shame the sad and low level this once proud department and profession has dropped to.
And there is no going back. The type of policing necessary to control chicago's gang problem was a voluntary service provided by a few cops who went above and beyond their job description. You wanted body cameras because you thought police were the problem and you wanted to monitor our actions. Ehhhhh guess again we weren'the the problem, and now there is no going back with body cams. Sorry liberals, get use to 800 dead a year, unless another uptick in medical technology can save the gangbusters who don't deserve to live anyway.
The real problem is the culture in the hood that values nothing but cold hard cash, a gangsta attitude, and the idea that they don'the have to obey even the most minor laws (not parking in the middle of the street, walking on the sidewalk, acquiring a driver'side license). Add to that the decriminalization of every law by liberals who protect the hood culture under the guise protecting it's residents from racism. This is what has led to your 800 homicides, 98.9% who deserved their fate.....and yes evil people do deserve to die.
So you ignorant liberals are to blame because you assume all your viewpoints come from some moral standing that hillbilly conservatives could not possibly understand.
Add to all this the WAR ON POLICE which has caused us all to recoil into a stance of protectionism. We make good arrests, the judge throws them out because to many black men are behind bars. We make proactive arrests(above and beyond our job description) which take criminals off the street who can no longer commit crimes, and then you decriminalization those laws. Then we enforce laws dually enacted by liberal democrat city and state law makers like selling loosies (in nyc) and you want us thrown in jail. Then the media attacks. They run 24/7 news coverage on it slanted towards the criminal and hating on police never understanding what it takes to keep the hood under control. Then they publish our names and our addresses so blm can show up Thursday our door. Name I think I'll stay in my car.
Then last but not least WEEEEEE are sick and tired of the corrupt political culture in this city and department. We are sick of triple merit hacks running this department. The merit system is the single biggest problem facing this department and it's destroyed moral more than all the above mentioned combines. We are sick of people teaching in the academy with 4 years on the job, we are sick of commanders secretaries getting promoted. We are sick of the incompetent being promoted because this guy's drandpa promoted this guy's dad and now he is returning the favor. We are sick of being told at detectives test, "if your only here for a merit spot, sign your paper and you can leave."
We have had enough. Lower merit to 15% and actually make it real MERIT. Please.
All this leads to one thing. A less effective police force who for their own self preservation is not doing what is necessary to police big city gang violence. Can you really blame us?
It's a f$&%ing shame that a writer from the NY Post has the stones to write the truth while all the sheep from our 3 major newspapers and one web paper (DNAinfo) sit back and remain silent.
How come nobody mentioned the one common denoniminator of all of those mall disturbances that happened on Boxing Day?
She should win a Nobel prize
Here is some additional food for thought. It used to be that if you wanted to get away from the bad elements (i.e. the ghetto pieces of shit) then you simply moved away or went to a shopping mall further and further away. But that is not the case anymore. Look at what the HIP Mall or even sometimes Woodfield Mall looks like. The ghetto element knows that the Chicago police are handcuffed. They also know that the handcuffs are even tighter on the suburban police departments.
Yet they still do VRI and BS missions / holding down cars and creating backlogs - which are not working
Congrats Rahm, Special Ed, and black lives matter. You all should feel real proud of what you all have accomplished.
"So far this year, 4,334 people have been shot in Chicago: one person every two hours. Almost all the victims have been black."
I'll have a coke.
This article says it all. Maybe it's time to appreciate the police again. Amen
More Officers are being stripped and placed in a no pay status for two shootings from 3 years ago. IPRA is on a witch hunt. Be advised.

"boys on the hood? Where? Certainly not on the west end of 008 where "failed Ronnie" told the typical "beat integrity,more coppers" bullshit line! Now Ronnie take that shine box and just go home!
Then we have this:
http://www.judicialwatch.org/blog/2016/12/spanish-military-report-islamic-terrorists-operate-raise-cash-latin-america-attack-u-s/
So rahm the ballerina is protecting the illegal invaders using millions of taxpayers money and from reading this it is clear that more and more illegal terrorists are here and coming rapidly! Rahm you and the 50 + toni violate federal laws hoping that when Superman Trump takes office your arrested and charged!
Where is rahm hiding? Look his buddy and his family including the mother in law(8 years living on the taxpayers dime in luxury with servants in the White House), they spent over 85 million in taxpayers cash on luxury vacations:
http://www.mcclatchydc.com/news/politics-government/white-house/article123335079.html
Are we paying for rahms vacations?
Only 12 measley little murders to 800, lets go Chicago you can do it.
2017 should be another display of the out of control thugs praying on each other while outfitting themselves in the northside's best fashions. More interviews of Farter Flapper and his ragging about body cameras will go along way to saving lives too. Let the ship sink it's already listing.
And fuck the police board too.
The "Mall Rats" are just taking a page from what Fr Faker taught them. Hit them in the pocketbook! Remember.
Johnson needs to be fired and the white people in Chicago should demand a white superintendent. If blacks can demand shit whites should be able to also. Still trying to figure out how someone who didn't even want to be superintendent was appointed.
In a typical Dickie Dawson 'Family Feud' accent...
"Name the top philosophy to halt crime in Chicago"
Emmanuel Family: "Police Body Cameras!"
Johnson Family: "Good Answer, Good Answer!"
Dawson: "And the survey says... Bwaahahaha!
If Heather McDonald lived and worked in Chicago she would not be published or hired by any of the Rahm controlled media. Rahm Times and Rahm Tribune would not allow it.
Basically he owns the media and laughs at us after screwing us. His e-mails show what a conniving bastard he is. Just like the Nixon tapes. A part time mayor of the great city of Chicago with over 4000 people or folks shot! No doubt he viewed the Laquan video. Should be held accountable. Chirp chirp from our Rahm controlled media.
The NY Post is a great read. They lean right and tell it like it is! Excellent article and spot on. Thanks for posting SCC. A safe and prosperous New Year to you all.
Who is Heather and how did she get published by local/national pandering rags? She just stated the truth with clarity and disregard for political blowback. She has bigger balls than the sup, rahm, and all news anchors combined. It's still not enough for me to stick my snake out to get skinned but definitely nice to finally respect a journalist.
Area 2 leading the pack in dysfunction
Read that whole article. She hits the nail on the head. No reporter in Chicago or even Illinois would DARE write any of the truths that she says. They would be fired within days. At least someone out there knows the truth and isn't afraid to say it.
Anyone doing work is out of their mind espically if they are wearing cameras.
I thought for sure taking away Trump's honorary street name would stop the violence in Chicago.
20 % clearance rate on Homicides is pure BULLSHIT!!!
10 % would be a high figure for this regime.
Old A/4 Retired Dick
Isn't this what they wanted? Hands off they said, so we did. The ACLU is overjoyed that we are not picking on the downtrodden and people of color. The rate this is going, there will be no more blacks to be killed in Chicago by another black.
How come it takes someone from out of town to write articles like this. Where are our home town reporters?
(OT) the Trump train is asking questions about the liars in the Democratic Party they are getting scared:
http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2016/12/29/trump-team-causes-tizzy-with-personnel-inquiries-to-obama-agencies.html
Wondering what the questions will be for the rahm crew? Senator Jeff Sessions office very interested!
Time to clean up the streets for a while - give the communities a chance to heal and move on. Call your state rep and demand stricter punishments for when guns are used in crime. 1st gun offense = 10 years (no time off for good behavior), 2nd offense = 20 years (again no time off for good behavior), 3rd offense = 30 years (again no time off for good behavior). If someone is injured the sentence doubles, if someone dies the sentence triples.
I got a number for a POD mission, a number for a premesis check, a number for a Curfew Mission, and a park check.
RealPolice, baby!
"The answer is not "spend more money", the answer is, "Crack down on this mayhem and crack some heads." Can CPD even field a task force that is up to the task? Equipment, attitude, and training wise?"
If you practice what you preach, now is the time to send your suit to the cleaners. You want to look good on TV as they walk you out of your house in handcuffs.
No surprise here. Among Chicago's 77 neighborhoods, West Garfield Park has the highest per capita murder rate in the city. When you look back to the late 1960's, ground zero for rioting has always been within a half mile of Madison St. and Pulaski Rd.
If you count cumulative criminal homicides by CPD district since 1966, there is a clear cut leader, hands down: FILLMO'. Fifty years of non-stop bloodshed and 011 still leading the pack. In earlier years, the runner-up was always da Deuce: 002 (with the 'jets) later succeeded by 007: da 'Wood.
Call me a Dog
Ive been on for 16yrs. and this is by far most the best time of my career, were else do we get paid to see the shit show baby-mama mayhem in the ghetto that goes on every single day and just sit and drop paper when necessary without even getting physical with anybody unless someone puts their paws on you. Guys, I'm enjoying this, never had such a fetal well paying job like this. Long are the days of actually policing out there. If you are being proactive and listening to these merit idiot bosses nowadays, there is something wrong in your head and just waiting to be let go, charged and jail time or all together. Been telling everybody I encounter, do the bare minimum, answer your calls, back your fellow officers and go home and play some violent video games. God willing, I got five more years to go and HASTA LA VISTA BABY.

Who cares
Stay fetal it's what the politicians and activists want
Crime is down right?
Years ago a former police chief in Philadelphia ran and became mayor
Chicago needs a law and order mayor I can think of several retired superintendents
Phil Chuck Garry or Jodi all would have a good shot of winning
Commissioner Chuy Garcia came within points of winning. Had his own people backed him. Mendoza lityle loui and the other turn coats. He would have won easily
Bring back gun court? Gun court was right before whore court and CTA court, and was given just as much attention by the Judge, which is not much! Finding no probable cause C&D the weapon!
Heather Macdonald and the Manhattan Institute are excellent - and they should take a lot of credit for promoting time tested police tactics that saved New York City.
Chicago desperately needs something similar to the Manhattan Institute.
What ever happened to the Chicago Crime Commissions - a private pro law and order organization? Jody Weiss took the top job their and quickly resigned, I've heard nothing from them since.
Bring on the regiments of sub-zero unqualified "cops." That will show them.
We would have law and order if we had a mayor! What some people will do for votes. Chicagos media will not put the truth out there. Very sad our elected ones are criminals and put money in front of the truth. Why hasn't cops ever been taped in Chicago? Can you imagine one shit show Chicago style live on tv?
Eddie Johnson and all of those at NOBLE who took part in the Lt's test cheating scandal should be fired and prosecuted. Who wants to work for a bunch of incompetent supervisors. Why isn't DOJ doing something about this? Sons and daughters of former supervisors who climb the ladder fast. They are some of the biggest fuck ups on the department. Who wants to do police work for moron supervisors?

You're crazy. Cline got canned because of the Abbate video. Jodi and Garry couldn't handle the politicians when they were supt.'s. There's no way they could deal with them now. Remember Jodi not answering Shortshanks' calls? Garry was hated by the black alderman. He wouldn't get the black vote. Not sure who you're referring to with Chuck. I've been 25 years and don't recall a Charles. Are you talking about Ramsey?
And you know what??? That Jeanie ain't going back in the bottle.
12/29/2016 03:06:00 AM
That's the sad part. There is no snapping your fingers and it all goes back in place. Experience retired. Enthusiasm evaporated. No respect for any of the bosses.
You can hire 5000 officers. It's not coming back in a generation. Congratulations Ron. Your lying and duplicity destroyed the toughest police department in the Country. Not even Daly's corruption ruined it, but you did.
There is your legacy. You are a colossal failure.
They had an anniversary service for Quintonio LeGrear and Bettie Jones. This service was covered by all the Chicago media outlets. During this service, community activist Eric Russell said that Bettie Jones was " executed". The officer involved in this shooting should archive these tapes. It shows that he can't get a fair trial in Cook County if any criminal charges or civil charges are brought against him. He also should sue Eric Russell, any organizations that he represents, and any news media outlet that published this slander aimed at him.
all I need is an ash tray inside my cruiser to light up cigars and smoke'm
@ 755am, all burbs are not created equal. I'm in the south burbs and we are not handcuffed. Plenty of people get locked up out here then do the yall just locking me up cuz yall don't have nothing to do out here. In Chicago they wouldn't bother with this....yup, I am bored. Nope this aint Chicago and nope I'm not Ibonding you.

Garcia said maybe you could take a little less benefits to help the city out of the financial crisis.
Look how we beat people up here. The above bosses have no chance. The Folks and the Peoples would never vote for them.

Gang investigations is the new citywide tact teams
So my question is who cares? As long as the gangbangers kill each other why bother. Find the guys who shoot the 7-11 clerk trying to support his family. The rest? Flip 'em.
The one day R.A.S. training I took earlier in the year has really helped my stress levels. I have yet to see ANY R.A.S. during my tour.
As we all know we need R.A.S. to lawfully complete a I.S.R.

While my border collie would be a better choice than Emanuel or Daley, your choices indicate you're delusional. Add to that, Weis is a proven coward. Also, the fact that Granny Clampett wears our uniform is unconscionable.
Due to management incompetence and clout corruption, our once noble calling is hopelessly dead in the water.
1003am I give you 10 night sticks for your family feud post!
Tiny Dancer is praying no kids get sick from that NBC report where there's a water ban for drinking. Sounds like city hall took too long to respond and someone didn't inspect a car wash correctly.
Stay Fetal , 60 years old with three to go . Raise mandatory retirement age and I'll be here .
Respond , write paper Show the crime and violence . Yes Mam , no sir , get a warrant sir .
Use camera to your advantage , I'd give you a break but rahm has us wearing the camera , you'll have to go into the station , I'll speak up for you and request an I bond . Towing the car blame the desk Sgt .
Stay Fetal , same pay less headaches .
Street stops , no way , no probable cause , no pat down by me .
Clearance does not mean an arrest or someone being sent to court!
I believe the actual amount of arrest and prosecuted is in the 8% range.
The other 12 percent are for cases that the fricking video in the interrogation rooms does not record any of the interview!
The state attorney says no video case is shit 1 free murder. Why doesn't the ass hat from media affairs send the news people one of his awesome emails.
it has happened more than once no video of interview murderer set free case closed.
heaven forbid the clouted going after DAVE the detective, he has folders of dirt that go way back to the Terry hilliard time!
Special Ed best knock off the witch hunt with clowns like Carter calling around demanding cars for relatives whose cars crash in to CTA buses...

Heard of em. They're like dinosaurs. They were here a really long time ago but now they're extinct.
When the mega rich jedediahs start losing money then things will change and it will be overnight but until then it'll be business as usual.
The people in this city hate the police too much to ever elect a former Supe as the Mayor. the black community would never tolerate it, especially a white one. A former black boss would have a chance because he would be controlled by the Democratic Party but let's be honest, as long as things stay as they are, no matter who is Mayor or Supe, there is no turning this around! As long as the police are perceived as the enemy, as gangbangers and thugs coddled and martyred, the city streets will continue to run red with blood.
You want to turn this around? Start with a strong leader who is backed by ALL the politicians who support tough law enforcement measures, as well as a judiciary that holds offenders accountable to the fullest extent of the law. Rescind the stupid Isr and go back to the simple contact card, hence telling the ACLU to go fuck themselves. Once we are again supported we start a zero tolerance broken windows policing again,targeting gang members.
I propose making gang activity and gang members domestic terrorist, charge them federally, and give them real time, use conspiracies and rico as warranted.
Revamp this department with real promotional tests that you receive the results to via scantron immediately upon submission. Merit, which I do believe in, should also be overhauled and transparent. The list of who is merit should be posted and a person would only be eligible for one merit bump for their entire career. You should have 5 years in grade at each rank before you are eligible for the next promotion.(nobody with less than 5 years as a Sgt. should be eligible for Lt. Etc.)
Nobody with less than 5 years should be able to leave patrol, period!
Revamp the exempt ranks, there are many useless and redundant spots. OCD doesn't need a Commander for each section of their unit.
Ok, rant over, back to my beer..
Fat Head Ed will be gone by March/April...
Commander KJ from 11 is a backstabbing loser. Don't trust him
Gang investigations is the new citywide tact teams

The "Mall Rats" are just taking a page from what Fr Faker taught them. Hit them in the pocketbook! Remember.

I thought they were all Canadian? They were fighting on Canada's "Boxer Day" holiday!

How come nobody mentioned the one common denoniminator of all of those mall disturbances that happened on Boxing Day?

They were Canadians celebrating their holiday?
"The answer is not "spend more money", the answer is, "Crack down on this mayhem and crack some heads." Can CPD even field a task force that is up to the task? Equipment, attitude, and training wise?"
If you practice what you preach, now is the time to send your suit to the cleaners. You want to look good on TV as they walk you out of your house in handcuffs.

WRONG ANSWER.
The answer is to get RID of the losers like Rahm and put some real leaders in.
Too many people are taking a "Stay Fetal" position. I don't blame you based on the idiots who are in charge, but that is NOT the solution.
What was meant by that post should be interpreted as - get some real leadership in and tell ALL CPD to get tough. Crime would evaporate. AND - no settlements with Ghetto Lottery ticket holders.
A new perspective is needed and you are not helping by letting hacks get voted in - including the State's Attorney's position.
You can hire 5000 officers. It's not coming back in a generation. Congratulations Ron. Your lying and duplicity destroyed the toughest police department in the Country. Not even Daly's corruption ruined it, but you did.
There is your legacy. You are a colossal failure.

Who is Ron?
CPD has real promotions. Real corrupt ones, none the less they are promotions.

60 years old? Is there life after the CPD? Your story is so sad? Sounds like you live to work every day and would continue until 70 years old? I could never accept that night mare. No family, friends? If you maxed out then leave. Collect a pension and find a security job.
Fat Head Ed will be gone by March/April...

Someone from outside will be here. Rahm will say 'See! I tried a home town boy and he was terrible. I was right all along.'
It's almost like he had that plan all along. Why else would he have picked Well Fed Ed?

With all due respect, can you retirees shut up about gun court? The proposal has only been floated like 200 times. Do you not understand that we are done working? It's simple math, I'll explain, hold onto you walkers. 0+0=0. Gun arrests (0)+gun cases in court=0. Paradoxically, there seems to be an actual correlation with 0= continued employment, lack of officer's serving jail time and lack of federal lawsuits. My point being that 0 arrests negates the need for a gun court. Besides, most judges side with the criminals anyways. Mind blown?
It's all...part of the plan.
Stay fetal my friends. Eventually ppl will want us. If not OH WELL
I feel the spirit of Sam Kinison upon me:
Class 36-01 Day 1
Good morning, and welcome to the Academy. I'm Inspector Terguson, and in this first part of your orientation, I'll be going over some of the history of the Department. You know, a lot of people tend to think of history as being static images and bits of information about the past, but not me. I hold history as something very sacred. Sacred. The way a farmer looks at the earth and he holds it sacred. The way a Christian takes the Bible and he holds it sacred. The way a lot of your parents used to hold their X-Box sacred. That's just how I feel about it. So why don't we dive right in, and discuss the single most defining event to ever take place in this Department.
Now . . . could someone tell me why in 2019, the Chicago Police Department overthrew the power structure of the Democratic Machine in our city, which inspired other officers across the country to do the same thing?
Cadet Lightfoot: The failure of wholesale Affirmative Action appointments to curb the gun violence in the underserved segments of the community led to an ongoing erosion of confidence in the meritorious, but beleaguered regimes at Headquarters and at City Hall.
(uncomfortably long silence)
Inspector Terguson: Is she right? I realize that's the popular version of what was going on back then, and a lot of people like to believe that . . . I wish I could, but I was there. I wasn't a house mouse, hiding out at Headquarters, hoping I was right, creating spreadsheets about it . . . I was up to my KNEES in BLOOD, with nightly gunfights in the Ashland Corral, going up against the Amish and slugging it out with them, while PUSSIES LIKE YOU WERE ON FACEBOOK, TWERKING IN YOUR SKINNY JEANS, POPPING SOME MOLLIES AND LISTENING TO ALL OF THOSE GODDAMN JUSTIN BIEBER CDs!!!!!! OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!
OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!
Cadet Mellon: Hey, Inspector, take it easy!
Most of these kids weren't even in grade school back then. As for me . . . I'm not a fighter, I'm a lover!
Inspector Terguson: Weeeeeellllllll . . .
I didn't know you wanted to get involved with the discussion, Mr. Helper . . . But since you want to help, maybe you can help me, okay? Do you remember the second term of the Obama Administration? When a righteous, by-the-book bust never meant fuck-all in terms of prison time because of the activist shitheads on the Cook County Board? So how come we didn't just storm out from 35th Street and level all the Section 8 housing BRICK BY BRICK AND START LAUNCHING ALL THE SHIT FOR BRAINS ASS-HAT LIBERALS INTO THE GODDAMN LAKE? HOW COME, TELL ME WHY! SAY IT! SAY IT!
Cadet Mellon: All right, I'll say it! Because Rahm Emanuel cared more about being a vote pandering pussy wimp, than he did about ALLOWING REAL LEADERS TO DETERMINE DEPARTMENT POLICY AND LETTING US DEAL WITH THOSE AMISH BASTARDS!
Inspector Terguson: Good answer. Good answer. I like the way you think. I'm gonna be watching you.
OT ~ PLEASE call Rep. Lacy Clay of Missouri @ his office #314/367-1970 for approving a painting of cops dressed as pigs in honor of the shooting in Ferguson, MO!
Well them damn Holidays. If only God didnt create Turkey drumsticks we'd have 1/4 the shootings. Those damn drumsticks are responsible for more fucking holiday murders then everything else combined. Theres only two and it comes down to who is quicker to their chrome as to who gets them.
Hey Rahm, and fellow pip squeak Rep Gutierrez, what ya gonna do when Trump comes for you, pulls your fed funding Mr Sanctuary City?

I second that.Please enjoy retirement in some warm place like FL AZ Tx i dont want to hear about you having a grabber shoveling snow.I hate to hear the stories of old timers retiring and collecting a years worth of pension and passing away.You are letting the city win by not enjoying yourself.Or the other sad stories about lonely guys that only have this job as a social circle very depressing.Make those assholes pay atleast 20 years worth of checks.
Fat Head Ed will be gone by March/April...
You and the others who so brazenly post here about 'staying fetal' better sure as hell hope not! I can say with good authority that if/when Johnson gets thrown under the bus, there will be another OUTSIDER who will be brought in to manage the CPD...unless Rahm plans to move up Kilpatrick (AKA Granny Clampett). Every currently active CPD Officer should be working to prevent this at all costs, even if it means going back out there and managing a little activity. Your union is weak, and the right outsider could come in here and start pushing people out the door for lack of initiative. Don't think it cannot happen. It will be far cheaper for the City to replace a bunch of the old timers currently on the books with lower payscaled newbies.
