Misguided at Best

  • The “take a knee” trend continues in Chicago.

    Several retired police officers sent a message outside Chicago Police Headquarters. [...]

    More than 20 retired black cops gathered in unity Friday to make a statement about patriotism, protest and free speech.

    “We’re here to show solidarity for the First Amendment,” retired police officer Judity Buckner says. “We should be able to do that without question, and nobody should come to us and say it’s wrong.”
Are you dense? No one is preventing you from protesting. In fact, you're retired - you can protest all day long and no one is going to say a word.

But you don't get to do it in uniform, on duty, with a raised fist, in a police facility.

And we'll add this - anyone taking their lead from Corky has a few screws loose.

Corky Calhoun?

When you look up the phrase:
"The luck of the Devil," expect
to see his picture...

How many times has he skated
for his antics?

Go right ahead. Protest away. I might even support your cause.
Just do not do it while the National Anthem is playing!

During the anthem, I expect You to Stand at Attention, Hand over Heart, Face the Flag, and Show Respect.

If you are a NFL Player, Coach, Owner, or employee, your NFL Operations Manual says the same. Too bad those idiots didn't follow their own rules. If they had done so, I might watch an NFL Football game again sometime.

Nevermore.

If it's any consolation, it's that these retired fucksticks can no longer directly affect the development of new officers. Or in Calhouns case, impart supervisory influence.

And something tells me that not one of these fucking morons participated in the Underwood vs. The City proceedings when it was requested that retirees make appearances at court hearings.

This latest display of ignorance doesn't surprise me in the least. The skewed tenets behind "I Am My Brothers Keeper" supercede common sense in the minds of these mental midget simpletons. Just a non-violent aspect of mob mentality with skin color being the driving factor behind a pitiful display.

Disgusting and disgraceful.

Corwin "Corky" Calhoun... Where to begin with him??? It's been a long time since we worked together in 015, but let me see if I can recall what I remember.

1. Racist? Check.
2. Hated whitey? Check.
3. Member of the Vice Lords? Check.
4. While a Captain in 015, prohibited his officers from messing with a certain gang's dope spot? Check.
5. Lived in the suburbs in violation of the residency rule while maintaining an unused ghetto apartment here in Chicago? Check.

Yeah, it don't surprise me that Corky is behind this nonsense. In fact, he is the perfect representative for this fraudulent movement. I would expect nothing less from him.

I will say this again...taking a knee as it has been happening around the NFL and within a police station by public employees has NOTHING to do with the first amendment. These ignorant assholes love to invoke the Constitution as part of their "it's their right to protest" argument. Sorry, you are dead wrong. The Constitution limits the government. The black protestors in private NFL stadiums have zero Constitutional protections. None. If an owner says "stand for the flag or you are fired" there is absolutely nothing they can say or do. Same for an employee, regardless if that employee is of a government entity. These ignorant assholes need to take a clas in the Constitution and realize taking a knee in a private location is NOT a Constitutional right!

The level of ignorance in this issue is astounding. Yes, you have a constitutional right to lawfully protest without fearing governmental penalty. I also have a right to think you are wrong and to tell you so. Especially when this entire narrative is based upon the proven false premise that police in America are going out of their way in targeting blacks. Those retired officers are simply ill-informed and bitter. They should educate themselves about history and life in other countries, especially those countries on the continent of Africa. Then they might be thankful that they are living in America.

And the more of us who stop watching these ungrateful over rated football players and stop buying their products, it will have an effect. I hope they keep taking the knee, and the President should keep up the pressure. They're taking the knee is only helping Trump and that's a good thing. By the way, I learned the NFL gets Federal Subsidies in the tune of millions. Some of the teams that are getting the federal money's are worth billions of dollars. So maybe, someone should ask, why are we the tax payers putting out subsidies to a private industry worth billions of dollars????

Then again neither did Colon Crapperback, who can't comprehend his own intentions.

Is the CPD going to continue to allow sworn and civilian on duty personnel to participate in divisive acts and display offensive gestures?
Bending the rules is Special Ed's speciality.

That being said, there should not be any problem with an ordinary someone carrying Old Glory to the lobby at the local District for a Pledge of Allegiance assembly, after roll call of course, as not to counter to the recent disrespectful actions of a couple of dimwits but as a return of a long lost national privilege.
Included should be those from the South, descendants of The Confederacy in the equality equation, be allowed to embrace their venerated Flag without judgement, repression or penalty.

Like the 2 weak coppers who cowardly knelt down as the looked at that agitator girl and fell for her ruse! Oh and before you go there I am also a retired minority copper, who would never disparage our blue brothers and sisters with a disgraceful pathetically pandering act such as this!

Its not a "black thing" what you did its a "acting stupidly" (that is barry obamas kollege words not mine!)! Maybe since your retired you could go into the black communities and promote taking a knee when they observe police, would make it much easier than having to chase a criminal when they run!

Its not "racism" when it is "realism!"

He pulled a similar move in 007 when intelligence sent an email that they had a CI and an undercover at a Vice Lord party at the park. Put his vest in , ran over there and the party magically dispersed. Other than that the man never left the station unless it was to sleep or drink in his car. I'm just glad his drunk ass didn't kill anyone on the way over there.

Excellent point about the Black on Black killings. And it's because they the Black community which I am a part of have no answer to. We refuse to acknowledge the impact of not having two parents in the home (a moment and a dad) and a faith life can have on the youth and these broken families. Until we as a community can in all truth acknowledge this we will continue to blame others for our lot in life. Let's help our Black families and all families and let us stay in prayer for all in our communities.
