Shooting

  • A Chicago police officer shot and seriously wounded a man who pushed an officer during a traffic stop and then ran off in the Back of the Yards neighborhood on the South Side Sunday night, authorities said.

    The man was taken to Stroger Hospital in serious condition, according to the Chicago Fire Department.

    Officers with the Area South Gang Team were conducting a narcotics investigation when they pulled over a car in the 4200 block of South Ashland Avenue just before 8 p.m., police said.

    When the officers directed the occupants to get out of the vehicle, one man pushed an officer and started running toward an area where several tractor-trailers were parked. The officers followed and one of them fired a weapon, striking the man, police said.

    No officers were reported injured.
A warm week on tap. Be careful out there ladies and gents.

Glad the coppers are ok but this is what happens when this administration allows - hell, encourages - guys with less than 5 years on the job to go to "specialized" units to play police.

Younger, no-time-on-the-job impressionable newbies + stupidvisors pushing for numbers in an activity-driven unit = problems. Always. Problems that will surely haunt the PO's for years to come while the white shirts quietly wash their hands of the mess and bail when things go south.

When are you clowns gonna learn how the game is played? The shit you just stepped in was self-inflicted and almost completely avoidable. I don't want to hear that joining the Gang Team was the "only way to get off midnights" or "it beats an hour in traffic driving all the way to ________".

Given the climate, self-preservation is paramount, it's all that really matters. Particularly if you have a family and the usual financial obligations that accompany same. Do not give them the rope with which they'll hang you.

This concludes today's lesson in escaping this "career" with as few battle scars as possible.

COPA was at the hospital shortly after the shooting interviewing the offenders family.
Remember it’s all legit and COPA is fair and impartial, not Rahm’s agenda driven.

Absolutely disgusting.

Appears to me, anyone that would push a cop then run like hell has got something to hide. That's a good enough reason to shoot the SOB. (Can I get hired on to that COPA thing now?)

OFF TOPIC: Long-time reader, I've a question: There was a shooting at the Bridgeport Unique Thrift store in Bridgeport mid-afternoon on Monday. Someone shot into the Unique storefront at least two times. There are two bullet-holes in their window-glass storefront. Someone could'v easily been hit. This is a busy strip shopping center, and one patronized by a diverse community of shoppers, speaking both ethnic-racially and socioeconomically. Is Bridgeport/Halsted becoming an unsafe place too?

Sounds like an 008th district copper because they're the only ones with their days off cancelled. Deputy Chief Ryan must have something against them? Hmmm?!

Oh the good 'ol 009th district. Commander wanting numbers and his stroke Sgt's pushing the agenda. I usually see him riding three deep with two of his loser cronies. I think one is a LT and the other is some idiot Sgt no one liked on midnights. Wonder how he got off midnights? Actually, no I don't, he's been stroking 900 since he got to the district. I guarantee this won't be the last incident in the 009th district because of the numbers being pushed on the beats.

The Feds really should consider snatching
CPD from Rahm Emanuel's corrupt, tiny, ever reaching
ever grasping hands.

In the meantime?

Have NO "interaction" with "The Community."

Protect YOURSELVES and YOURSELVES alone
from THEM.

Let "The Community" resolve their ongoing
internecine culling among each other.

You know... Since The Police are the problem...

Right?

Look.
Laugh.
Leave.

Ignore THEIR screams for YOU to "do something
about all of THIS."

THEY and THEIR ENABLERS, have caused
"all of THIS" to come to fruition.

THEY just want license to point and laugh at
YOU and YOUR FAMILY surely and intentionally being ground up in the wreckage
resulting from "do something about all of THIS."

The solution, the "do something about all of THIS,"
is actually THEIR responsibility.

Said responsibility being avidly avoided because
it involves hard and awkward choices for THEM.

Said hard and awkward choices run counter to the
prevailing narration, thus making THEIR
raison d'être to be nothing more than the anti-society
perpetual race grievance revenge fantasy it has
metastasized into thanks to such a dreadful thing
becoming a political, cultural and social weapon
of mass destruction and distraction.

Thanks to the Liberal-Democrat Progressive Alinskyites
with a vicious Stanlinist bent.

The ones most concerning are the young "true believers."

"Overthrown Everything!"


YOU... Only matter to YOUR FAMILY and FRIENDS.

Exercise YOUR God-Given abundance
of caution and common sense.

Realize and recognize how truly hated and reviled
YOU are because YOU stand for something the horrid
creatures driving all of this cannot get their fey,
hateful, nasty and vapid narrow-minded intellect around.

It IS their fervent belief that they ARE so much smarter
and more (not necessarily better) EDUCATED than YOU and the
rest of upright everybody else that they revile.

Police Like You Have No Friends.

Im pretty sure any real policeman who refers to another policeman as a CLOWN, is the real problem with the whole department.

Special ed thinks preventing citizens of Chicago from purchasing an 11 shot clip or a bullet proof vest will make us safer . Maybe time to retire , push to keep repeat offenders behind bars . Like that thug that killed Commander Bauer . Push for mandatory jail time for resisting arrest , battery to a police officer . Maybe an easier one , do not hire people that were charged with resisting arrest but found not guilty . Did you or your investigators interview the victim(police Officer ). No sanctuary city might make Chicagoans safer .
Ed you should run for Mayor , you are a politician now , hiding reasons why a Police Officer was murdered.

Seriously, what DONT some of you people understand about what the old timer salty (but WAY wise) "Do nothing dogs" have been telling us since forever?????? I'm ssooooooooo glad I listened to my FTOs and the veterans when I came on. By the numbers policing and no gray areas to impress the bosses that will leave you to twist in the wind is what being CPD is all about these days. Has been for quite some time only too many of us are too blind to see that Respond. Report. Arrest on signed complaints only. Your safety and the safety of fellow officers is all that matters. Look, Laugh then Leave when it applies. Lather, rinse, repeat. No, I won't be buying benefit tix for these clowns when their teammates come a knocking at court or at rollcall.

So I posted on this blog right when Cmdr. Bauer was murdered and it wasn’t allowed by the administrator for whatever reason.
So I’ll try again.

Some of you guys with this bullshit about remaining fetal and what a cop out way for you lazy, dog asses to continue what you’ve been doing your whole career. Now this situation could’ve happened to anyone; midnight beat car, days traffic car, etc. This guy was doing his fucking job and you have the balls to post on the blog anonymously and talk shit. You know where the guy works and I’m pretty sure you can find out who he is to be able to say a few words to his face.

Now these shitbirds walk around freely without any fear of consequences from our justice system. They’re walking into your neighborhoods robbing, burglarizing, car jacking and all that other good shit. As that’s happening most of you will bitch and moan on here about how this sucks and that sucks, but you never take any action. And then you’ll talk about how you used to be the real police and back in the day you were a stud and knew how to be the real police. But It’s guys like him that are needed out here on theses streets, guys that go out everyday and protect our families from the scum. Cause are you gonna do it? NO, cause you’re to busy bitching and moaning about life. And this is the reason why this dept can’t come together, cause you’ll always have the haters, the whiners, the kiss asses; and then you have the guys who come in to do what they signed up to do. I’ve been doing this 15 years now and always been the same. Yeah the shitheads change, the police climate changes and the activists come and go. But one that you can rely on is the same old lazy, whining coppers who are pissed off cause someone pissed in their Cheerios.

Agreed as the copper is called into exempt and crews presence and told"30 days on the desk kid, we never told you be aggressive!" As the copper sits there and sighs, then goes home as his wife cries,and children are worried, then look in front there they are the dishonest police hating fake news media ringing the bell and pounding on your front door! You cower and tell the family "shut off the lights,stay low,don't answer any phones!" Next day corrupt copa calls and the police hating new children hired who hate police has you appear,as you call FOP for a lawyer and he/she tells you "don't look good kid!"

As your sitting your ass inside cooling off watching the bosses laugh and tell more young coppers "go get them kid we got your back," and your young,dumb,eager to please them and then it happens the knife is turned by the clown club of bosses that decide to turn the knife and place you on the railroad tracks as the fast train approaches.

Next federal court your on that stand as your family and friends are watching,kids crying out,wife in tears (Not enough Kleenex to mop up the water flow from your families tears), you state everything you own as the scumbag and or his family sits staring at you knowing they just won the "ghetto lottery" and you lose everything! Then you think for what? the animals will always act like that you have changed nothing but screwed up your future forever.

Oh and BTW take a clue from the ladies the female police officers,maybe get an injection of estrogen if that is what you needed notice how few if any are ever involved in this aggressive "acting stupidly" idiocy? Something about the female coppers, they actually know to stay away from dude and let the male "skulls full of mush" young coppers do the dumb shit!

God bless the police!

Off topic but as the police, everyone of us needs to be aware of the impending unrest that is soon to come. On the small scale- the Vandyke trial which may bring a not guilty verdict. On the Earth shattering scale- Guantanomo Bay has been refurbished and many troops have been reassingened there in the last year. This is in preparation for Military Tribunals set to begin by the end of this year.I don't have to tell you the names of dozens of gov officials and politicians who have committed sedition and treason over the past few years. Especially relating to their attempt to steal the election from Trump. The public won't understand or believe what's happening. Martial Law will likely be declared to protect the innocent. Educate yourself. This is not conspiracy. This is happening. Do yourselves a favor and start preparing.

Awwww, whatsa matter, Snowflake? The truth hurts a bit? Go cry to Mommy that the police that know better hurt your feelings trying to drive home one of the most important lessons you'll ever hear. Too bad there aren't many like these oldtimers left to share what's common sense to anyone with 1/2 a brain who refuses to hear it becuz they "know better". It's rather simple: you pick and chose your battles on this job. And dope arrests for number Hungry bosses that don't give a fuck about you don't even make the cut for a sparring match. Jackass.

Couldn't agree more and to add to your point, These neighborhoods (Back of the yards, Archer Heights, Gage Park, heck even Englewood North) are dumping grounds of all gangs that are being forced out off Pilsen. They gotta go somewhere and they're going south and southwest. Its the circle of life. What gets me about 009 is that its so political yet the politicians aren't doing anything. As long as these thugs dont go east of Halsted they dont care.

@6:35 pm Snowflake? Isn’t that the pot calling the kettle black? Sorry tried to use a reference that you can relate to. To tell the truth you sound like a disgruntled dog that has been coasting in a “specialized” unit a decade too long. Experience is needed but yours might be a little dated. I’m sorry if you can’t keep up with these 5 year wonders (didn’t realize that was the updated term) but perhaps it’s time for you to stop relieving the glory days and accept that your 2 anovs a week ain’t cutting it anymore. Your juice has long retired and perhaps it’s time to put those dkny jeans to pasture as well. Not sure it’s time for you to go at 55 but perhaps 2214r is a better place for you.

Don’t let the metal door hit you on the way out and don’t forget to clean out your locker (to include that stench of old spice)
