Cancer - Coming to You
This is what's on the camera boxes already delivered to Districts and on the way to other Districts:
Don't worry though - we're sure you have to eat a lot of cameras before the cancer actually sets in.

Hey, we're in Illinois, we're safe!!!!!
HMMMM
so female officer should be aware i take it?
They don't put that shit on boxes for laughs.
Who would think baby powder gave women ovarian cancer...

Virtually everything is known as a carcinogen in Mexifornia. The land of Fruits and Nuts. Please, secede already, or fall into the Pacific. I can't wait for my property in Nevada to become the next Malibu or Monterrey.
it's the lead used in the solder on the circuit board. completely harmless to anyone who washes their hands after futzing w/the circuits that are inside the case...
But Jay Ryan said that cameras are a good thing....Is cancer good?
Kinda like the exposed ceiling in 003, possibly asbestos who knows. 🙄 We'll find out in 30 or so years
Don't worry: that very same warning, word for word,
appears on cans of Rustoleum spray paint.
It's gotta be a California regulation.
That warning label reminds me of the old hand held radar guns and the controversy that officers were contracting testicular cancer from keeping the unit between their legs when not in use. Was that theory ever substantiated? Any input from officers/troopers in agencies who were issued those units?
Retired .38 spl +P
Good thing you've got that stored in the archive. Anyone with a spate of bad luck (the bif C) can use that to sue the city and ACLU.
Let's have an expose of all the Coppers who have been
sickened and killed by these nasty cancer and upper respiratory
ailment cluster Police Facilities...
Surely the dots can be connected and City Hall eventually laid out
for unsafe work environments.
Hey... When was the last time those high tech x-ray
scanners at HQ were used?
Some strange coinky-dink that the Officers who
manned those posts were diagnosed with cancer?
Those machines are still there because they're
defective and "hot" and it would cost Rahm too
much money to have them removed?
Policemen seem to be considered expendable.
Right?
Whoa, whoa, whoa. Hold up. Wtf is this? What's the chemical? And you probably don't have to literally eat it SCC, mere absorption from wearing it everyday is enough to sicken you.
Can't wait for the lawsuits to start on this one for causing "reproductive harm"
Again, me and few retired guys were talking--- this job is not worth it... you can't convince me. And I am not looking to convince you. But if you don't agree with me.... you will eventually.👍👍👍👍👍
As long as the go-between buyer for the City gets its beak wet, who cares if the manufacturing material has carcinogens. Besides, Rahm, the aldercreatures and the brass won't be wearing the cameras anyway.
Squad, I feel sick. hold me down over at Lovey and Lovey.
Can we refuse to wear one based on this? Or do I have to wait until I'm dying of cancer to sue?
Several years ago they came out and said milk causes cancer. I haven't cared since.
"......known to the state of California....."
Hmmmmmmmm..........
The city provides only the best for us.
Rahm couldn't care less about us. If "the community" demands that we wear body cams then Rahm is all in.
I have to believe that those cameras are still less leathal than the building at 5555 w grand. Too many officers from 025/Area 5 have Cancer.
Wow!!! Isn't this a safety hazard then? How can we be forced to wear something like this? To appease the public and politicians? Unbelievable!
Keep a copy of that label, your family will need it to file a lawsuit in 5, 10, 20 yrs.
Allow me to translate from liberal bureaucratese:
"Do not eat"
You're welcome.
Hey at least they are MADE in the U.S.A. Rham actually is supporting our country on accident by buying these cameras. He would be so pissed if he found out.
I don't think that I have too much to worry about when it comes to my reproductive organs.
Now, kees me you fool!!!!
Relax. Carbon black (you know, the black stuff that makes plastic and rubber black...uh hand grips, tires) and lead (wheel weights, uh...projectiles) are all on the same CA list of suspects. Watch your exposure limits!
Hello, FOP! Are you there?
How bout Near North? I'm surprised that the walls don't glow in the dark in that cesspool.
The union better look at this!!!!!!!! I've been through this disease - it ain't a joke!!!!!!!
Hey FOP!!!!!! Kevin Graham!!!!! You better put a stop to this ASAP!
Let's get a class action law suit going.
They contain Styrene, or its promiscuous cousin, polystyrene.
Your right California did belong to Mexico, so did Nevada. Can't wait to visit you in Nevico.
What's next radioactive jump suits and gamma rays shields...
Hope FOP is on top of this. We have a lot of young women and men who might want children someday.
I have to believe that those cameras are still less leathal than the building at 5555 w grand. Too many officers from 025/Area 5 have Cancer.
Kind of like the old 12th district. 3 of my old partners had cancer. One is gone. One is fine. The other got the big C TWICE and thankfully is ok.
Come on the label clearly states you can only get cancer in California. We are in Illinois. Duh.
The politicians way of taking care of our pension crisis. Fuck Rahm.
Next time you're at Home Depot, check out a bag of sand; you'll find the same warning.
It's a California law; nothing more needs to be said.

"And you probably don't have to literally eat it SCC"
hahahahaha!
You're a dummy
There are over 800 substances on the CA Warning Label List. Apparently the label is everywhere in CA - and hence elsewhere.
https://www.ksl.com/?sid=27711857
A long term study should be done on the equipment cops wear and the effects it might have on cells. This includes radio, phone, and now. now body cams! This stuff sits so close to our bodies for at least 7 to 8 hours that you have to wonder if has any consequences.
I'm sure you've had a million other links about this, but...
https://www.ksl.com/?sid=27711857
If true, the FOP must file a lawsuit against the city especially if they knew these devices could cause cancer. Then we stop wearing these cameras until the city buys non cancerous devices.
This should be enough for me to refuse too wear the camera because of health issues. Let the bosses do what want to me, I'll take them to court. I'm waiting for someone on this department to try to make me wear something that can harm me, I'll fight this all the way. Just a note, someone from the bomb squad told me, years ago, Comm. Kennedy tried to make them wear a utility suit that was not 100% cotton. The utility suit not being made of 100% cotton would cause static electricity, which could cause a device to detonate. A bomb tech brought this up and he was ignored. He then called the bomb school, the FBI bomb tech section, and threatened legal action. This was a work related safety issue, and the utility suit was removed from the bomb squads inventory. The camera's and the cancer warning is a work place related safety issue and I'm refusing to wear something that could harm me. I'm really surprised the female officers are not screaming about this and the possibility of breast cancer. I'm meeting with an attorney next week to see what my rights and options are with refusing to wear a camera that can give you cancer. Hey, SCC you can save the label for future suits, I'm going to use the label now while I'm healthy; that save the label is really bad advise.

Ladies, think about the information on that label, a cancer causing device you are wearing. Beast Cancer????????
Known to be harmful to/in California?
Nothing good came from California since the Beach Boys.
Never trust a Democrat...Don't open it.
It might be a box of toxic chocolates from Garcetti, Pelosi or Waters.
Whatever is inside, don't feed it after midnight and don't get it wet.

Worked in the old 008th district many coppers died from cancers the building was full of asbestos and mole, look at the new buildings full of toxicity and the city does not give a shit at all!
This label is required because liberals in California used "settled science" to prove that EVERYTHING "causes cancer" and this was the only way to end the lawsuit lottery.
California tends to set their safe harbor limits for chemicals 1,000 times lower than Federal agencies like the EPA.
EPA generally sets limits based on observable effects. California for some reason worries about effects that aren't detectable and sets their limits very low, thus warnings on everything. There's even a group trying to get warning labels added to chocolate bars because they contain trace amounts of lead.
I hear that in California, having a pulse is known to cause cancer.
Working for CPD is known to cause depression, anxiety, and suicide too. But hey, make those stops!
What a joke.
Pretty much everything is known to the state of California to cause cancer. Blame over-regulation and their habit of putting every hare-brained idea to vote.
Isnt this an osha violation.
Everything gives you cancer according to California.
Just reminds me of the Hand Held Radar Units used in Traffic Enforcement
Illinois State Police Troopers allegedly got some form of cancer
Big Pay Out for using these items
Not only CPD has too worry about this issue. The Union should inquire about the Cancer effects
Contact the CDC in Georgia for additional information
Contact the U S. Dept of Heakth for their opinion
Contact any Cancer Professional. They might be able to give You some data
Don't ask 9.5 Tiny Dancer. DOJ doesn't have the FBI wearing cameras
FBI has had numerous violations within their Agency concerning issues
No Federal Consent Decree assigned to them
we should go to court and have an immediate stop use fled by the courts for safety and discipline issues!FOP LETS SHUT THESE THINGS DOWN!
TALE OF THREE COPPERS
Twenty years ago Terry Hillard made a video about how a colonoscopy detected early colon cancer and saved his life. He still is running around collecting those pension checks.
Two years ago I fainted and the doctor ordered blood tests. I was anemic. I had no other symptoms. I had a colonoscopy and a small cancerous tumor was found. I had it surgically removed and needed no other cancer therapy.
I just found out that a friend has been diagnosed with colon cancer. Unfortunately his tumor is large. They are trying to shrink it with radiation and chemo before doing surgery to remove it. Hopefully he will recover fully.
My message is that colon cancer is highly treatable, especially if caught early. If you are over 50 get a colonoscopy. If you haven't had one for awhile talk to your doctor about when you will need another. My tumor was found four years after a clear colonoscopy.
The same warning is on your Christmas lights. You've probably seen it a million times and currently own/wear something that came with the same warning. Electronics like the cameras may contain lead or be exposed to lead in the manufacturing process.
The label is required by California Proposition 65 "The Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986". It requires substances known by the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm carry a warning label.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/California_Proposition_65_list_of_chemicals
Cancer sucks and I don't wish it on my worst enemy but we expose ourselves to tons of carcinogens by walking outside, driving a car, shooting lead bullets....
The cancer cluster has been alive and still taking people out to this day. Homan square - The drywall just covers every banned building material for the last 50 years. Gases from old sewers. Poor guys that got the killer cancer where mostly people that spent the entire day in building. Windows that do not open of have none. E@RP, B/A. 011/A 4- Basement and locker rooms. Cops beefed and FOP showed up and did a song and dance as usual. Ask the boiler engineer to let you look into the furnace. Every virus and toxic chemical is seen is Delete repeated word. You will want to puke seeing this. Has never been cleaned since city took over and spent 10 mil on just doing the cosmetics of the building.
The new building are the same clusters. 001 was built on land that had a old bone yard from the turn of the 19 century. Walls are cracking and these chemicals are in the filtration system and air. Deadly Chemicals in soil go to bed rock. Those people that bought town home on that land at 18th. and State have no idea what is under their foundation.
The training Division is also tops in toxic air. The building was built on a old former insulation building company from 1940.' Heating and A/C has not been cleaned since 1985.
A nerdy microbiologist would have a field day getting samples from these buildings. Virus's that are not even been named are in these buildings.
City could care less and FOP and EPA will not get involved.
Get fresh air when you can working In these buildings that is like working in a nuclear plant with a few cracks.
Silent killers lurk in city buildings of old and new. No one gives a shit about your health and welfare. Sad shit.
Old retired guy who really feels for all you great hero' and all you endure in the late/great CPD. You more then
The key line is "Known in the state of California". According to CA, standing on a beach is sufficient exposure to silica to cause cancer.
The glassware sold by Anchor Brewing Company in SF has that same disclaimer. Pretty much anything that made of glass or silica sand carries this warning from CA.
There was a dust-up about imported granite counter-tops
from India.
Saw the pictures.
That stuff dates from when molten cosmic slop
congealed into the first solid rock some 3.5
billion years ago.
Egads... It had marble to golf ball sized
nodules of UR-FUCKING-RANIUM in it and it
was reading QUITE warm according
to the various instruments.
The gov't claimed in the 60/70's Agent Orange was safe to use, how many have died
from all kinds of cancers thanks to Dupont Chemical.
I lived in California. Everything in CA has that warning. The gates at my apartment complex had that sign; every aisle at Fry's Electronics had that sign. I saw these signs at Walmart and Target.
I suspect the list of items not known to the state of CA is quite short.
I wonder who the insider was that got their pockets lined to go with that company?
Chicago politics as usual
Oh, and fuck you rahm
The only why I'm going to wear this camera now, is if they give me a lead lined helmet that Superman can't see through.

He's got a point, let's put a petition together with more facts and have a job action over this bullshit.
But Jay Ryan said that cameras are a good thing....Is cancer good?

He is not a bright person. He is just a kool aid drinker like the rest of them
Saliva causes cancer, but only if swallowed in small amounts over a long period of time.
- George Carlin
FOP, Where is the safety grievance?
Better stop carrying ammo, radios, guns, cell phones, pretty much anything made of plastic. If California could hang labels on the air, it would carry that same warning.
He's got a point, let's put a petition together with more facts and have a job action over this bullshit.
Sounds like a great idea. When you get the petition put together let us know where to sign it

Couldn't agree more. Daughter lived in San Diego and we went to a fine restaurant there that had a sign posted stating that the restaurant and the food might contain cancer causing chemicals. For real, California is the land of fruits and nuts and they over regulate everything. This appears to be no more that the pharmaceutical companies putting warning on all the drugs. If you ever read them you would never take one. The all say cause bleeding, strokes etc and in rare cases death
I don't understand the camera thing. For decades video recorders and cameras have been made and almost every cell phones has a camera and now suddenly the cameras made for the COD are cancer causing. Why not just buy one of the other 1000 cameras that aren't cancer causing. Or is the CPD plotting a conspiracy Way to many causes to take up and things to worry about, this isn't one of them
The place female officers are wearing these cancer causing camera's are in the sweet spot to perpetuate breast cancer. Female offices should be on the phone calling American Cancer Society and asking questions. It looks like the new police are just strokes and going alone with this BS. Oh, someone wrote, anything made in California has labels it can cause cancer. Let me just say to that goof, just for shits and jiggles how about you wear this camera with the cancer label for about a year. Then in five years we will be visiting you in a cancer ward wondering WTF happened. Give me a fucking break, if there is this type of label, lets find out why it's there and proceed with good information to show to this merit infested department something that is a safety issue and get it resolved.

What they said about California is the truth. As far as the cameras don't you think that the EPA or the FDA would be all over this company if it were true. I take it these businessmen are not to bright. Sell a camera that causes cancer and then ship it with that label. Wouldn't invest in their stock
Or maybe it's a left wing liberal organization trying to kill all the police, but they are kind enough to warm us with the label
I am now taking in my Kodak camera, my iphone and. Ideo camera for testing. Maybe I just bought the cancer free cameras

Hey dick-head, you can take the change and wear the camera, oh, I almost forgot, a similar warning is also on a pack of cigarettes. So I guess your a smoker, because you must be ignoring the warning cigarettes can cause cancer, because it must have started in California.

You better stop wearing sunglasses, drinking coffee, sitting in office chairs, eating Big Macs, using luggage, using knives, and whole bunch of other shit because it causes cancer in California. You should avoid the sun too because it can cause cancer everywhere, not just in California.
C'mon!
You expect to live forever?
@02:25. Much wisdom, I agree 100%. I know of one officer who worked at 35th St. HQ Security, mostly monitoring the huge X-ray machine, Stage 4 cervical cancer. Fact. No radiation detection badges for anyone, No body protection. Young officers in childbearing years. Dear God. No one cares. They couldn't pay me enough to wear that camera on my chest. Open your eyes people.
