The New Kids
- City officials welcomed 111 new police recruits Tuesday as they start the Chicago Police Department's training academy.
The recruits bring CPD closer to its goal of adding 1,000 officers.
CPD Superintendent Eddie Johnson and Mayor Rahm Emmanuel spoke to the recruits about helping to solve the city's violence.
"We're not expecting you to solve all of it on your own," Johnson said. "We're expecting you to be part of the solution. Being part of the solution means helping us hold violent offenders and building trust in the communities you'll serve. Because when we do that as an agency, when we have the communities work with us, we'll make our streets even safer."
You'll have to do it with one hand tied behind your back, hundreds of arm-chair quarterbacks dissecting your every move (which will be recorded), and a dozen or so layers of what we call "supervision" with tongue planted firmly in cheek.
Good luck kids.
Good luck kids.

This city is in decline
Weren't these 300 or 400 recruits a month ago?
As Eddy Haskell what will happen to the Beave if he gets in the way and break a few balls--- will Wally give him the business, or will the Beave get rail roaded and be facing charges at the cook county slammer and get his name smeared in the sun times for being a knucklehead. Wait a minute this is not "leave it to beaver" but the same talk from the 1950s does apply
"Run Forest, Run "
Leave It To Beaver kicked ASS!
With any luck Sessions and co. will go after these ass-hole city officials (rahm & co.) for obstruction for this sanctuary bs and gross idiocy in general.
Over 1200 murders in less than two years and no one asking for the supt. job. No protests or marches. Very strange. I guess the people/folks like him. Gee I wonder why...
How many PPO has the dept hired in 2017? ...How many sworn have retired?
We welcome 111 recruits and 120 P.0's retire nice spin Superintendent, do the math. Our department has never been able to keep up with retirement. By the way Eddie said at a roll call by the end of the year we will be back to 13,500 patrolmen LMAO. He must have thought he was addressing the public and not a roll call. We're down 3,000 police officers, good luck.
Did sirs, mr mayor and sup. What have you both done to improve safety in the city?
From my understand the city is averaging 60-80 recruits a class. I'm shocked they have 111 or is this just number fluffing.
Either way this city is a sinking ship can't wait to retire in a couple of years to get the hell out
Residents of the city, "We're not expecting you to solve all of it on your own," Johnson said. "We're expecting you to be part of the solution. Being part of the solution means helping us hold violent offenders and building trust in the communities you reside in. Because when you do that as a family, we have the communities work with us, we'll make your streets even safer."
Why would you allow your kid to take this job?
Don't forget to tell these kids that not only are they expected to solve all of societies problems, but they will also be blamed for all of societies problems.
And don't forget to tell them that they are now second class shitcago citizens. Their rights to due process have now been greatly diminished. They are now the only ones in the State of Illinois who are required to register ALL their firearms per Department Order. Even civilian department members don't have to register their firearms.
Oh, if you get into an argument with ANYBODY right or wrong no mater where you are on duty or off that other person can get a complaint on you. If you are in Florida and argue with a idiot, he can call IPRA - COPA or whatever they call it now and they will take the complaint.
Needless to say, if you are clouted, none of the above applies to you.
Welcome to the Shitcago Police Department
No loss of words when someone has to craft them for community activist, The Right Man for the Right Time™ Special Ed.
- "We're expecting you to be part of the solution. Being part of the solution means helping us hold violent offenders and building trust in the communities you'll serve..."
'Helping US HOLD VIOLENT OFFENDERS'.
Didn't he have a big lecture on the 48 hour rule and how he ain't about to assist no ICEs?
'Building Trust'
Nowhere does the community activist Special Ed ever put an expectation on the community.
Where's the No Confidence vote.
Where's the community outcry to the second year of uncontrolled murder and violence rate?
New Kids welcome to the most malaligned Department ever, even with Jughead being on the last months of his biased and dismal leadership.
I thought rahm wanted more violence in the city with his illegal alien infatuation?
Oh, and fuck you rahm.
Please don't take the job learn a trade police work is finish live outside Chicago live a happy life
I feel sorry for all of them. It's still not too late to find another job....As my wise FTO told me, "This ain't the only train leaving town..."
Hope they hire thousands more have to fund our pension right there "silent" Kevin Graham? You came out strong then deflated, push yourself away from the table Kevin long enough to get in the media talking CPD up!!
On another note we have alderman "skycap" Ray Lopez concerned about this:
Alderman says Lincoln bust in West Englewood burned
http://chicago.suntimes.com/chicago-politics/674297/
While rays area of Brighton park is decimated by violence, hey ray you expect englewoodians to obey the law when you yes you ray fully disobey federal immigration laws,and then bitch saying you don't want national guard patrolling the Brighton park streets as people are being mowed down by rifle fire? ray do you still have police protection? Ray you were a great skycap for southwest airlines at midway maybe think about going back,you can't disobey federal laws and expect anyone to obey any laws when your lawless!
Do as I say not as I do right ray?
Good luck to the new lids. A word of advice, have a viable plan B and keep resume updated.
And they appeared to be on foot posts tonight ( Friday ) at the lakefront
Yes and were expecting Left Hand Eddie to resign and be part of the Solution ASAP and Leave since things under his WATCH has gotten WORSE ,Wheres the demand for this Clown to leave , And were also expecting Eddie to retake the Lt's Exam and see if he can pass it without Cheat Sheets and with one hand tied behind his back , WERE also expecting his Arm Chair Quarter backs Like Little Kim and her MOMMA Bullwinkle to continue and crucify any copper if they fire a Shot at anyone who is a Black American, The truth always hurts but they will NEVER protect you even if your Right Even at the beginning to welcome you they lie to your face . By the way 1,000 new Officer are only replacing all the Officers who have resigned , and all the retired Officers who have already Retired EARLY , and all the ones who have Retired at there regular time. No Extra Officers coming in anywhere More Lies
Hopefully they're ok with Rahm "sticking it in the cops ear".
I would NOT allow my son to take this job today and I'm ready to retire and move from Illinois!
Fuck this place and Socialists policy which is the death of this city!
@ 0807am
...because he's from here and plays the game. How many aldermen have you seen the supt get into it with? Zero.

You are delusional No way is CPD down 3,000 officers. Check clear, contact FOP or the pension fund Pension board knows exactly how many officers in all the ranks are paying into the pension. CLEAR will list the number of officers by rank. It's no secret conspiracy
Not saying it will be done, but Rahm said 100 a month hired. In 2 years that's 2400 new hires. Two years of retirees at 700 a year would be 1400. 2400 minus 1400 retirees equal 1000 new hires
This year there has been a class of around 100 a moth. Check with the academy. It sure isn't empty

Welcome to Chicago,
Where things are going up in flames
I wish Mr. Sessions would come to town,
Because some would name the names
We've got some people who'd provide
All the dirt he'd need
You just follow the money, sonny,
If you wanna cure this disease
In Chicago, welcome to Chicago
Taxpayers are on their n-n-n-n-n knees, knees
Rahm likes to make them bleed
Welcome to Chicago
Where benefits get stripped away
The Mayor said we gotta learn to bleed,
So it's the price we pay
We have a lot of no-go zones,
And a lot of unanswered phones
Depending on the 'hood you're in,
We'd be lucky to find your bones
In Chicago, welcome to Chicago
Rahm never uses any Vaseline
He loves to hear you scream
[Guitar Solo]
Welcome to Chicago,
Things are the worst in every way
Offenders usually get released
In less than a working day
The predators take the Red Line,
And prowl around in 018
The ghetto rats can kill each other off,
But they better not fuck with me
In Chicago, welcome to Chicago
The unions are on their n-n-n-n-n knees, knees
It's time to make the politicians bleed
[Bridge]
Those fools in high office
Never ever want to step down
Step down . . .
Step down . . .
They're ass clowns, yeah . . .
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
You know where you are?
You're in Chicago, baby . . .
You're going to die . . .
In Chicago, welcome to Chicago,
The middle class is being squeezed, squeezed
In Chicago, welcome to Chicago
The South and West Sides are full of fiends
In Chicago, welcome to Chicago
Rahm has run this city into the ground, ground
In Chicago, welcome to Chicago
The next election needs to take Rahm down
Vote in 2-0-1-9 . . . *Flush!*

You don't need to feel sorry for them. They are adults and will do fine. Some wanted to be police officers their whole life and will do a great job. To the ones who only wanted a paycheck, who cares

Maybe because he is an adult and wants to
But then again you did everything your parents told you to do

Parents are controlling. And if you go against them you're seen as disloyal or disappointing to them.
Parents should shut the fuck up and let their kids do what their kids want to do.
Especially when it comes to this job. Do NOT encourage your kids to be a cop just because you enjoyed it or identified with it.
This job is dead in the water. Forget the pay and benefits. Get a job where you don't cringe every time you're going to work.

Please, stop drinking the koolaid. In the 90 s every district had over 300 coppers. Now most barley make it to 200. And now we have 3 less district, 2 less areas, no SOS, school unit and barley 120 in mass transit. Don t know how the computer counts what the city inputs, but my eyes don t lie. Just wait till 19 when the big class of 1990 retires. That was almost 1200 that year alone.
