Protest Coverage
- Emotions flared at City Hall Wednesday as members of the Chicago Fraternal Order of Police, who were there to protest Mayor Rahm Emanuel, met with counterprotesters on their way into the City Council chambers.
About 40 FOP members stood behind a dozen uniformed officers in City Hall’s second floor lobby. Their path into the council chamber was blocked by nearly three times as many protesters shouting “16 shots and a cover-up,” a reference to the Laquan McDonald case in which a white police officer shot the black teenager 16 times.
You mean the supposed cover-up by Rahm hiding the video? And the supposed cover-up by the entire exempt chain-of-command who found the shooting justified? That one? If the officer is currently facing charges, then there isn't really a cover-up, is there? The snowflakes don't seem to understand this, as demonstrated by their ignorance of basic facts:
- As police arrived to protest Emanuel, the crowd of dozens chanted in unison “Stop killing our youth!” When Wells’ great grandson, Dan Duster, spoke about her legacy, a woman shouted, “Whatever!” at him, in an apparent anti-authority gesture.
Hoping over to HeyJackass.com, we see that there have been 967 people (or folks) shot in Chicago this year with 157 dying as a result. And how many were shot by the Chicago Police?
- Six
As in barely sixth-tenths of one percent shot. Killed?
- Zero
This explains COPA's desperation to re-open every single shooting and hang any copper they can to give the progressive cause some sort of legitimacy. It also explains the "stay fetal" movement perfectly.

If officers want another contact they need to come out and support the union regardless of how they feel about them. For politicians it's all about proception and divide and conquer. Let's keep the pressure on city hall and Rahm.
200 wasn’t enough. But in that article I love how the police are wrong for doing the exact same thing that these liberals do constantly. Maybe if the police shut down LaSalle street it would have been the right way? Maybe the police should have locked arms on a highway?
Heard they are watching body cams for swearing. There’s a CR in a south District
Rumors true about a protester spitting at a retired copper and the brass doing nothing about it?
To the men and women who attended thank you. I was at city hall when we last organized to protest the way we're treated and unfortunately not much came about it. I hope that this will bear fruit and our voices will be heard.
Congrats Rham for mobilizing democratic voters to mess with a police protest.. I knew he could do-- now steal more money from their shit house schools and give the a high school diploma which mean absolutely nothing to them, cause they will get booted out of college anyways
Upwards of 200 coppers? and half of them were retirees.
Pathetic that 1000 didn't show up.
Kind of OT. Just watched the end of American Sniper again. American hero, two hundred mile procession with thousands of real Americans holding American flags in tribute.
I am so f'n sick and tired of every liberal, anti-American asshole raging about the police or the national anthem or Trump or whatever these lazy assholes are ordered to do every day by their handlers.
There is not a single meaningful useful contribution out of any of these cockroaches. Just procreate, bitch, live off the government teat, and perform as ordered.
Let's hope the good people prevail. It happened in 2016. God bless our police, all of our first responders, and of course our military.
I was at work so I couldn't go to the protest. 200 really isn't very many, but we all are doing something some in the communerty should try, working to get ahead. Unless the taxpayers speak up I do believe we're screwed and they're not saying a word. It will take some time for them to get back in control of these miscreants that are raising all sorts of hell. The wolves have gained the upper hand and the sheep dogs have been held at bay.
Idiots.
The Democrats have no idea how to tend a garden. They had beautiful plants, trees and flowers. Then various weeds began forming and instead of fertilizing and watering the plants, trees and flowers they heard the cries of the weeds who always wanted more and more. So they fed and watered the weeds at the expense of the plants, trees and flowers. Now the weeds were overtaking the garden and destroying everything. There were times they could have used herbicides to control the weeds but decided the herbicides were dangerous and wrong and they needed to be controlled. The weeds were against the herbicides and protested them every chance they got especially at City Hall. The news media also approved the choice of the Democrats. So the Democrats thought even though they were losing the plants the trees and flowers the weeds did provide some greenery and they should fed and water them some more in hopes that the weed garden would eventually be beautiful. So now the herbicides sit on the shelf waiting to be thrown out. The weeds are now out of control but the Democrats love them and want you to do the same. Urbs in Horto.
This incident just made the CPD appear hostile to the community and it's grievances.
That's how you know the "movement "is bought and paid for... They have no problem ignoring the fact that almost all of the black men killed in Chicago die at the hands of other black men.
Talk about a cause without legitimacy.
RAHM HAS DEFINITELY GOT TO GO , ITS THAT SIMPLE , That's Step NUMBER ONE , No Matter who gets In , Then WE go to Step number 2 " If we have to " , BUT THE BALLERINA HAS GOT TO GO . and McCarthy can Leave Dodge with him
Why can’t she share the existing “Wells Street” with William Wells, a United States Army Captain who died in the Battle of Fort Dearborn? He can have south of Chicago Ave and she can have north.
I bee guessing those protestors missed math class at the Magnet Skool or somehow got DeMagnetized. Unfortunately one needs to understand Math in order to claim an of Statistics. Understanfing
Maybe they should just rename the City East St. Louis. Oops, already taken. A couple more Special Exports' and I'll come up with something original.
Yawn.....really means nothing. How many of those supposed old-timer cpd coppers kept bringing in activity? Lots of supposed veterans talked a big game, yet they still bring in tickets. It is sad, but there are coppers that get their whole life's worth from handling jobs. Quit bringing in tickets, arrests, or any activity that generates numbers for the city!
It doesn't get much more simpler then that. Talk about a blue flu all you want. That shouldn't happen to begin with since it would make us all look bad as contributing to the citizens getting victimized. I'll say it again since we have CPD members that are borderline retarded........quit bringing in parkers, movers, and anovs!
So, if these statistics are actually factual, there then appears to be an egregious discrepency, disparity and insufferable inequity between the victim rendered dead by inhabitant score and the "victim" rendered dead by law enforcement officer score....
Quite a stark disparity.
Why, it could be said that there is a conspiracy being engaged in, by law enforcement officers, to not sincerely participate in this oh so popular sport of rendering people dead.
Would this be considered cheating, even when those who are way ahead in scoring are enjoying the benefits?
If so......
Boy..... Them law enforcement officers sure are spoil sports.....
Alas, only the "community" knows for sure....and they don't know nuffins........
Sad.....
McCarthy is in it just to tell who saw what and when.
Pull out of the shithole districts and let it burn. It’s all one big lie, a proven fact. Until the media and the left wing that runs them want to confront the systemic problem with lawlessness and crime that is within these communities, nothing will change. Look at the numbers snowflakes!!! Never ever ever ever vote Democrat!!!!!
As much as the Left claims to want an open dialogue, their continued behavior proves otherwise. If I was an anti police leftist I would educate myself on police policies regarding use of force as well as the Supreme Court decisions those policies are based. In other words, I would research WHY the police do what they do in order to improve my argument.
But the left refuses to do so. Instead, the left resorts to an angry obnoxiousness, with no doubt the endgame being a reaction from the police. In their minds, a violent response from the police legitimizes their beliefs. However, obnoxiousness is shallow, without value, and does not equal empowerment. Angry Obnoxiousness only leads to an undermining of what one hopes to achieve. Angry Obnoxiousness will eventually be seen for what it is, and it’s use as a tactic during protest will be regretted.
I applaud the officers for not engaging with the anti police crowd. A dignified and stoic stance demonstrates inner strength and self control, and over time will prove to be more effective.
"Rumors true about a protester spitting at a retired copper and the brass doing nothing about it?"
The video was on Fox News for a few minutes but then disappeared....It definitely happened but becase a copper didn't spit at a counterproster it disappeared
I highly doubt any of the white protesters ever set foot on the West or South sides of Chicago. Did you see them? They arrived in a huge group because do you think they have any responsibility or jobs?
It was nice that Rham was chewing on cock ignoring the FOP while they were speaking.
Give them what they want. Do nothing.
Maybe a great response to Rham ignoring the FOP and everyone shitting on police would be for police to stay home during a big trial coming up this summer.
200 officers!! What a sad showing. What a joke. Please don’t post anymore articles about the police should come together.It will never happen,it showed with the turnout. What did they rent two short busses to bring them to the hall.!!
Sniff, sniff ...if a sudden epidemic of blue flu took place and Darwinism was the law of the city for 48 hours, what would that be like???
Rahm could care less and is attitude proved it. It didn't help that between 3 guys, they couldn't read a one page typed letter in 9 minutes.
We need to hire a PR firm to represent us. Each speaker has his heart in the right place but imo our efforts were set back. Less than 50% of FOP members are registered voters. How about starting there and attempt to register the rest.
To that piece of shit, liberal cock sucker who spat. You are a filthy whore. Go lick some blm nut sack bitch.

Law Enforcement Officers are hostile to:
Fuck faced fucks who do harm to others, not merely including, but especially, and prolifically, to those residing within these "aggrieved" communities.
Shit souled cunt brained politician pukes who exploit, with ample assistances from the fuck faced fucks, each and every living soul within these "aggrieved" communities.
Douche soaked brainless shits who play their dictated roles whilst pretending to be "journalists". Fucking clowns.
Each and every feral breeder spewing out spawn creatures who will continue to terrorize each and every resident inhabiting these so very, very, very "aggrieved" communities.
Ya want aggrieved, ya pansy....
Ya want to twit talk about "grievances", ya putty sacked putz nut.....
Community grievances..... What a fucking retard show that is.....
Troll: They kill and eat their young every day and yet they are focused on the police as their problem. This divide will never be bridged. Get out now. Sacrifice no more.
Call ald matt o shea and tell him the game is over he is not a union guy fuck him he doesn't have the backs of the police call him at 773 238 0228 tell he go fuck himself

Yea, because the community thought so highly of us before and didn't think that the police are the problem and out of control
Hey SCC,
Our police shooting stats aggregate all law enforcement - CPD, Sheriff, ISP, the Feds and university campus light infantry divisions. Of the six police involved shootings so far this year, five were CPD and the other was U of C, which puts the CPD involvement in shootings this year at 0.52%. By contrast, the number of people who have shot themselves is more than 3.5x greater at 1.86%.
-WHT
Not a cop here but whats with the low turn out,the city is doomed! God Bless you all.
ch7 news had a clear video clip of a snowflake spitting on a off duty police officer
Who and how organizes these counter protestors? How come they are not at work or school? Progressive democrats the cancer of America. ♠️
Special Export? How gauche
Noe, kees me you fool!!!!
Those ignorant groups never let the facts and truths get in the way of their agenda.
9000 Active members and only 200 show up ??? and half were retirees ,What a terrible show of unity boys and girls, Glad you think all is well with COPA and Emanuel and all the BLM assholes . Please leave forwarding address to which ever FEDERAL PRISON your being sent to so we can send Christmas and Birthday Cards.(Wouldnt want you to feel left out at Holidays.}You reap what you sew people and you coppers/sheep will be VERY SORRY you were Warned and didnt do enough to address the situation !!! Glad to be retired 15 years and three states away from these BLM Jagoffs who refuse to see That they are the problem not the Police..... Stay FETAL and retire as soon as possible and move away from HELL .. if your not in a Federal Prison some where ? And if you are , YOU BROUGHT IT ON YOURSELVES !
Snowflakes get out of your parents basement get on the train and march with out the retired guys you would have had only15 marchers
My gosh. if that white girl spit on me, Shed have gotten a Fuckin Smackdown right there. right then!
Can't remember who said this(I'm paraphrasing):
Police are accused of committing "Genocide", if this is true the Police are the all time worst at it.
Anyone with half a brain could’ve seen this coming. You know the police are Hated and they weren’t going to take this lightly.
why didn't the FOP inform the retirees about the protest?
Still 6 is to many. I bet if we slowed down just another 10 mph to these calls we could cut that in 1/2 .
The facts are clear, hate the police, and anything white, thanks Obama.
Why would COPA be any different than loevy and Loevy or any other attorneys for the “plaintiff”.
Since the dems tied the hands of the police, there are no monies to be made in the criminal courts nowadays and that decreases civil claims as well. Soooo time to go backwards and look at old cases to make up for the lost cash.
I’m seeing many new retired members in the news re old criminal cases.
One name in particular may give burge a run for his money.
It never goes away boys.
Vote Republican fuck the Democratic if you don't pay taxes you don't have a say on what going on Downtown is a mess crime is out of control make sure your family gets out and vote it's time to stand up 33,700 left Illinois taxes drive the working class to move

Lest see what this kid opposes bet it is the criminal felons and the high crime rates oh sorry more of the same lies:
Chance performed at the inaugural Obama Foundation summit last fall, but he has been a vocal critic of Emanuel over his plan to build a new, $95 million police and fire academy.
Of course law and order he opposes and then barry obama does the typical democrat line refuses to commit to pay his bills for monstrosity of a waste of space for his building:
Obama — who has refused to sign an agreement that would hold the Obama Foundation accountable for economic investments in the center’s Jackson Park neighborhood — tweeted out thanks for the latest step for his future center, which is still under federal review.
We can botch all we want about everything, but the sad reality is that we dont stick together. There should of been thousand plus narrow hinges like we did against Daley but this just shows how much we really care about us that those that could show up never made an effort but are always the ones complaining the most and the loudest. Sad

THE DECRIMINALIZATION DELUSION

https://www.city-journal.org/html/decriminalization-delusion-14037.html
I was there yesterday and participated with my fellow officers of CPD. To those of you who are CPD and weren’t there you all should be ashamed of yourselves. Regardless of your doom and gloom outlook, we all need to ban together right now and make our voice heard. Bitching amongst your fellow officers isn’t enough anymore, and whatever happens in this next contract or bullshit consent decree, when the policies you don’t like are stuck so far up your ass you can’t see straight, remember back what you could have done with your fellow officers.
And to FOP: Get your shit together and act like you’ve done this before. Get out in the districts, the units, and the roll calls and start getting vocal. Putting a news notice on the website and expecting word to get out is ridiculous. If SCC didn’t mention this last week I probably wouldn’t have known myself. FOP’s main priority should be uniting this membership as one, focusing on the pension, healthcare , and contract. If you’re unfamiliar with doing this, reach out to Karen Lewis and company, because they make us look stupid. This was a 10-1,where the hell was everyone??
And before all the keyboard commandos start telling me what a jagoff I am for even thinking this, fuck you, and a big fuck you to Rham, the city council, and the media.
Anyone at the march that got video of drug addicts upstairs try to find a way to upload or get sent to youtube. Especially the guy higher than a kite with dreadlocks and the male BLACK who was trying to get in everyone's face swearing up a storm.
Next time do it at Water Tower and block the doors like Father Faker does and maybe then Cardinal goofy will smile on you and hold his hands up as he walks into Starbucks. LOL

Your comment just made me feel hostile towards you. Go fuck yourself.
Retired cop here says, stay fetal and safe.
It's a solid first step that we were able to get 40 plus CPD to show up for a protest. We need to learn the effective tactics the worst Leftist do to advance their (bad) agendas. Leftists are almost always better at street protests than Conservatives.
Another very effective Leftist tactic is called:
"Doxing".
This is when you find out the personal information of some adversary and make the information public to try to mess up/ruin the life of the enemy.
Where does the enemy live? work (ha ha these Antifa BlackLiesMatter types never work an honest job), who do they hang out with, who do they sleep with, who are their relatives.
In lots of instances these Antifa/BlackLiesMatter 20 somethings are just teens that haven't grown up and are mooching off their parents, living in their parents basements. Talk to the parents. Explain the situation, the parents might/should give the slacker son the boot, make him/her get a real job.
Again this is called Doxing. I've been doxed. It works.

AllRight Chicago
It appears that Milwaukee has a police chief and Msyor that are as big of assholes as our own here in Shitcago.
If someone at shitty hall turnout captured the male BLACK with cap on swearing at cpd and rest can you get a hold of Dan trevino at fop and I will get a copy of it from him. I was there but didn't film him. Loss of memory at moment. Retired.

That is a good idea as a matter of fact a great idea, rahm now has lost all respect for the "Italians" he is ruthless will change anything and everything to get votes! The insane thing here is Oreilly the disgraceful alderman that was so worried about removing President Trumps small sign after he spent over 100 million building a great hotel!They will do anything and everything to pander and kick the taxpayers in the ass to get votes!
Since the Marxist Left seeks to divide us into Social Identity groups in order to control us, let's speed that up for them and do the counting out loud, so reasonable Americans remember where the real danger lies.
Cops are low on the list of possible dangers to life and limb, and highest on the list for taking risk to protect us.
On the other hand, sadly, black males are highest on the list of groups dangerous to life and limb in this country. Obama knows it, Jesse knows it and always regrets he admitted it once. Heart-breaking but undeniable. Rahm knows it too but still hopes for black votes.
Here is the Tribune today dancing around the truth on the front page:
"Memorial Day on the West Side means increased violence".... Tell us plainly, who is the danger, Trib?
Just north of us, all that jerky Milwaukee Buck had to do was take his hands out of his pockets so the police could see he was not a threat to them. Way to make a statement about respect for civil society, pal. Take your millions of NBA money and put it you know where. You take zero risk on behalf of society.
Hey Milwaukee -- boycott the Bucks until their weak-kneed management grows a pair.
Which fool scheduled this on the day they voted on the new academy? We showed up to protest the Mayor, but ended up supporting the little turd.

I had no idea the protest was taking place. No word about it in the district. No one was talking about it. I guess this was FOP's plan to look like they are doing something but not to offend Rahm.
Upwards of 200 coppers? and half of them were retirees.
Pathetic that 1000 didn't show up.

It's always the guy who wasn't there who complains about how other people didn't show up. So, were you there? Go ahead and list your excuses.
1000 more officers on the street Memorial Day weekend??? LOL LOL who are you kidding? stop blowing smoke up the public's ass. And as far as denying time due and canceling days off??? I'm off Sat and Sun.this week. My days off are not canceled. I took D.O.H. on Monday and it is approved. I have never been denied D.O.H. and have never had my days off canceled other than NATO and the Bulls riots and the Cubs World Series. And yes I work the ghetto. Yes I work the streets and not inside. Stop the bullshit. People have the option to work their days off this weekend. They are requesting 8 people at time and a half. Those 8 cover the 15% by contract to take off per day. And yes those that like to work overtime and side jobs are jumping at the chance. Sorry I don't work side jobs or my days off. Never have in 27 years. I will be at home with the family enjoying my 3 day weekend!!!
Who is paying the protesters at city hall and at the McDonald’s?
Yikes. Stay fetal.
Side note: big shout out to Mark Donahue who just acquired a 2 year contract as lobbyist for FOP at a rate of over $70,000 per year on top of the $600 per month as a trustee and all expenses paid during travel to Springfield. Very lucrative...I wonder if he was at the protest...
Proactive Policing should stop immediately. Only a fool would risk everything (i.e., tact teams). Been there, done that.
Kinda off topic. Finally a President that loves the POLICE. Watch the video of Trump Jogging away from his entourage while boarding Marine 1 to Shake the hand of several coppers standing on the sidelines watching him depart.
Gotta the love the guy. MAGA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
As a law enforcement officer who recently retired and a follower of heyjackass for several years now, I can't understand why anyone who is a police officer in Chiraq has not left for greener pastures? Your retirement will be gone by the time you get to retire. Your Department leadership and your Union/FOP is not behind you. Your fellow cops are not interested in standing united. Why are you still there? The community, politicians, criminal courts and media are all anti law enforcement. Again, why are you still there. The middle class is leaving Chicago in a mass exodus like the last person to stay will be stuck with the check. Financially you would be better off to get away from there asap. So why are you still there? Everyone is hiring, just google where you want to go start a new. Hell most states let you lateral now. You can freeze your retirement there and actually have a retirement that will be there in a new state. So, why are you still there. I just don't get it. Maybe its like the drinkers wife who gets beaten. You love it. Maybe thats why your still there. Good luck with that.

Yes! Lori Lightfoot is going to be so much better for us.Ha i'll just take Rahm.
So how'd the anti-cop "protestors" know to show up? Do they have jobs? Were they paid by the Party (yaVO!) to appear and whine? FOP ought to file a FOIA request for all emails, text messages, and phone call logs of every Alderman, Rahm, and anyone at City Hall for the past week and a half (since the FOP event was announced) to determine WHO told the protestors to show up.
Might find nothing, but lots of sphincters will be tightened as a result of the FOIA...
And next time - bring ALL the cop cars. Block the whole downtown. Lights on - park it in the middle of the street.
"WTF is going on? Why da street blocked?"
"Cops are having their own protest in City Hall. How do YOU like it?"
Balboa was famous for Upgrading military as well as commercial aviation, Balbo became famous for his promotion of mass international flights to demonstrate Italy’s air power. Though he was one of Fascism’s best salesmen, his pro-British sentiment and his rising popularity among Italians may have caused Mussolini to have him murdered
Italo Balbo (Ferrara, 6 June 1896 – Tobruk, 28 June 1940) was an Italian Blackshirt (Camicie Nere, or CCNN) leader who served as Italy's Marshal of the Air Force (Maresciallo dell'Aria), Governor-General of Libya, Commander-in-Chief of Italian North Africa (Africa Settentrionale Italiana, or ASI), and the "heir apparent" to Italian dictator Benito Mussolini.
After serving in World War I, Balbo became the leading Fascist organizer in his home region of Ferrara. He was one of the four principal architects (Quadrumviri del Fascismo) of the March on Rome that brought Mussolini and the Fascists to power in 1922, along with Michele Bianchi, Emilio De Bono and Cesare Maria De Vecchi. In 1926, he began the task of building the Italian Royal Air Force and took a leading role in popularizing aviation in Italy, and promoting Italian aviation to the world. In 1933, perhaps to relieve tensions surrounding him in Italy, he was given the government of Italian Libya, where he resided for the remainder of his life. Balbo was the only leading Fascist to oppose both anti-Jewish racial laws[citation needed] and Mussolini's alliance with Nazi Germany.[1] Early in World War II, he was killed by friendly fire when his plane was shot down over Tobruk by Italian anti-aircraft guns.[2]
All police officers I feel sorry for all of you Iam retired fuck fop get a new union STAY SAFE
Paging George Soros
I saw the news segment and noticed they gave the CPD protest about 15 seconds of coverage. The asshole NBA pro baller who was too fucking lazy to find a legitimate parking space and was called out for parking in a designated handicapped parking spot by officers in Milwaukee got much more airtime, especially after being tased when he refused to follow directions and step back from the first officer who told him to do so several times.

Yes it was the FOPs fault coppers show up. Please remind me how that makes sense. It would have been nice if Dean Angelo or any number of other Dean hacks would have shown as well. Dean put our union and its members a risk with the last contract and not fighting the DOJ. Shame on him!
Barely any coverage, and what there was made it seem like only 40 showed, and faced 'nearly three times as many protesters'. Why weren't those protestors saying "one shot..by Tarik at Demario"?

Rumors true about a protester spitting at a retired copper and the brass doing nothing about it?
What is the brass supposed to do about that? Idiot...
I saw the news segment and noticed they gave the CPD protest about 15 seconds of coverage. The asshole NBA pro baller who was too fucking lazy to find a legitimate parking space and was called out for parking in a designated handicapped parking spot by officers in Milwaukee got much more airtime, especially after being tased when he refused to follow directions and step back from the first officer who told him to do so several times.
Is that the same video that I saw? That incident should have been a check your license, insurance and registration and a ticket. Period. You sir, are the donkey of the day.
A very eloquent and hard-hitting editorial by a DePaul professor. Hope he has tenure.
Something is terribly wrong when, in the most moral nation on earth, its third-largest city is ruled by gangs with a crime rate that is 35 percent higher than the national average.
Wannabe-commandos terrorize neighborhoods, challenging not only local authorities but the very authority you exercise as president of this great nation. The potency of your own presidency is ridiculed when thugs and barbaric criminals take it upon themselves to establish lawless fiefdoms, usurping the law and order on which this republic was built and upon which its continued existence depends, as they kill innocent lives.
We teach, as we should, the values of self-reliance and personal responsibility. But those virtues needs a clean space to thrive and flourish, a place where an innocent 13-year-old Hispanic girl trying to earn some extra money as a babysitter is exempt from having to negotiate with extortionist gang-bangers who extract half her earnings from her under the pretense of protecting her life and her virginity. In Chicago, some neighborhoods are overseen by gangs that ought to be viewed as operators of terror cells, nihilistic institutional organizations that invade the sphere of civilized life. These gangs have declared themselves above the law.

I was there yesterday and participated with my fellow officers of CPD. To those of you who are CPD and weren’t there you all should be ashamed of yourselves. Regardless of your doom and gloom outlook, we all need to ban together right now and make our voice heard. Bitching amongst your fellow officers isn’t enough anymore, and whatever happens in this next contract or bullshit consent decree, when the policies you don’t like are stuck so far up your ass you can’t see straight, remember back what you could have done with your fellow officers.
And to FOP: Get your shit together and act like you’ve done this before. Get out in the districts, the units, and the roll calls and start getting vocal. Putting a news notice on the website and expecting word to get out is ridiculous. If SCC didn’t mention this last week I probably wouldn’t have known myself. FOP’s main priority should be uniting this membership as one, focusing on the pension, healthcare , and contract. If you’re unfamiliar with doing this, reach out to Karen Lewis and company, because they make us look stupid. This was a 10-1,where the hell was everyone??
And before all the keyboard commandos start telling me what a jagoff I am for even thinking this, fuck you, and a big fuck you to Rham, the city council, and the media.

I completely agree with you. Yesterday’s protest seemed like attendance of only the “in the know” coppers. I didn’t find out about this shit until the last minute because someone pasted a SCC or similar. This was a big fucking deal apparently. But until the FOP starts hitting every district weeks in advance like when they’re campaigning for office it ain’t going to register and the word won’t get out. In comparison Karen Lewis was a pit bull and THOSE people know how to protest. Look at the NYPD! Flyers are set up and distributed everywhere well in advance. This was a sorry ass attempt to get the word out. Not everyone is on social media and not everyone follows the blog. You have to canvass the districts repeatedly make it out like this shit is crucially important. And anyone who is not onboard is a fucking scab. Fucking sad we’re so jaded we need extra prodding to attend but it’s reality. And the weasel knows this , this is why we’re getting dismantled and screwed right before our eyes and we’re motionless in a coma while it happens. Wake the fuck up FOP it’s your goddamn job to make the noise and demand our attention! That’s why we pay you dues. Get some civilian real tax payers to walk with us to combat those anti police counter police goofs. Plenty of people up north not getting proper police service! Motivate them!
We need to hire a PR firm to represent us. Each speaker has his heart in the right place but imo our efforts were set back. Less than 50% of FOP members are registered voters. How about starting there and attempt to register the rest.
5/24/2018 05:29:00 AM
I know someone who has offered to help who well-respected, knows police issues and pensions and can't get an email replied to. Officers have recommended this professional, too. I'd rather have dues going to pay a professional than some FOP hangers on.
There is video footage that shows that rham paid no attention at all when the CPD's statement was being delivered. He is clearly ignoring it, and yapping with Ald. Marino.
So just what was accomplished with protest? The counter protesters got much more coverage. Maybe next time don't let them know when and where. Also adopt the NYC PD model of turning your back on Mayor. That got them lots of media attention would work here as well. The media would love to show the public how rude you are. The old adage is there is no such thing as bad publicity. Get wise and put and keep unrelenting pressure on the mayor and aldermen. Hey retired CPD time to help out. What else do you have to do that is more important.

It was disgusting to see the Mayor of Milwaukee and the new Milwaukee Chief of Police rush to denounce the police officers and publicly apologize to the bee-baller like he is some type of deity, instead of telling the truth about his illegal parking and refusals to comply as the causes for the encounter.
Ladies & gentlemen,After seeing the report from Milwaukee & seeing how the Chief of Police & the Mayor threw their officers under the bus & then backed up over them I think we have just about lost the war. Your have a member the inner-city privilged class(A basketball player) parked in 2 handicapped spaces while he shopped. When the officer encountered him,maybe because of his size or his attidude, the officer called for a assist & on the video you can hear the officers telling him to show his hands, which he did not do. They attemped to take him into custody,which became a struggle & he was tased. Now he is the victim, no charges,except a parking ticket, the officer chastised,probably suspended & the mayor & chief going we are so sorry. Mr.privleged suing. I fear we have lost. CYA & stay fetal.

Hey, wait a minute. I saw the video and that is not what happened. The player was an arrogant ass for sure as he parked across two handicapped spaces. Just write him a citation and let it go. But the cops could not and they escalated the situation.
God bless all CPD officer's. Watching it on the mews, it was way too short, they did not cover it nearly enough.
The worst part was reading (here) an officer was spit on. Whoever did that should get stomped by a shitload of teens running this city. Hope it comes fast hard and unexpected, you spitting piece of filth!
I applaud the rep from 20 who got up in the face of the city hall sergeant who said our guys/gals had to leave the gallery but the other side could stay out. The sergeant backed off after the P.O. told him we had every right to be there .
Rumspringa is here bitches!
“Letting people have their say, that’s how democracy works, that’s what makes a strong democracy” - Attorney Brendan Shiller...who does not seem to know that we are not a Democracy, which was never mentioned in Declaration of Independence or the U.S. Constitution. We are a Republic (for which we stand!).
“To put forward this money at this time, when our city and our neighborhood is crying out for resources, and put it toward new glass and new cement and a new swimming pool for cops is really a slap in the face of those black youth that have been organizing for an end to racist policing” - aldermen Carlos Ramirez-Rosa, 35th...If he really believes that Chicago police are racist, why wouldn't he want better training?

There should have been thousands there, and the single focus should have been the screwing over of Rialmo.
Your [sic]have a member the inner-city privilged class(A basketball player) parked in 2 handicapped spaces while he shopped.
I would have had the car towed and impounded. Then leave. Entitled prick would come out of the store and not be able to find his car... call the cops to report it stolen, find it was impounded, and hand him a ticket when he shows up to claim it.
I know alot of you barely can handle being married and raising kids.
To expect you to waste 5 hours of your life to fight for your contract which includes pay and insurance...
Keep on doing you its working great so far.
Blame the FOP you are a member but "SOFT".(IM in court i cant go to meetings)
I was glad to see the retirees marching and angry they were a better generation.
could have used some bottle water PRIEB! (nice backpack)
Now off to play FORTNITE in my moms basement.
NEVER ever heard of Balboa, I love the fact that I get a small clue as to history just by reading SCC. Good stuff.
Awful. Cops were handled by the media, mayor and protestors. This is not a game. This is war and going in unprepared and unaware is certain loss. Vote. As a group. Develop a strategy. Build support. Random acts and crappy signs are your doom. It is not too late but close. How does a midget wn a fight against a giant? He hopes the giant arrogantly believes he is a giant and will always win. Then he changes the game, the rules and the scoring crushes the giant. There is a way to win but it’s not walking into traps. FOP is seless. You need a PFP. People For Police. Mobilize that army. You take ground. You win battles. You have a chance at ultimate victory.

Simply outrageous that an extremely overpaid guy who does absolutely nothing more than throw a ball through a hoop-proves what an absolute DOGASS he really is by parking his car illegally, blocking two handicap parking spaces while DOGASS goes shopping as if he’s someone special!
So where do the actual handicap drivers park now?
DOGASS, confronted by uniformed police, simply can’t comply, and has to be the fool with his glowing BLaM attitude in high gear...
DOGASS refused several requests to remove his hands from his pockets and step back, then escalates a free for all that ultimately got DOGASS tased?!?
Perhaps he should now be referred to as STUPID DOGASS!
***so, lets review again***
When was the last time you or I ever parked blocking two handicap parking spaces like DUMBASS-and got a ticket?
I’m certain your answer is never.
When was the last time you or I ever disrespected or disobeyed a uniformed police officer in the performance of his duties, like DUMBASS did?
I’m certain your answer is again, never.
When was the last time, especially in a world now where it’s commn knowledge to simply-very simply keep your hands out of your pockets and in plain sight during an interview with police and not enter the police officers personal space?
I’m certain your answer is again...never.
When was the last time you or I chose to refuse lawful orders of police and escalate to the point you got your/my ass tased like DUMBASS did?
I’m certain your answer is again, NEVER!
And this extremely overpaid DOGASS (who, If basketball hoops were lowered a foot or so, would be nothing more than a hourly wage janitor).....now calls himself a VICTIM??
Ha! What a joke.
Fuck off, DOGASS!
Next time park your car legally, (like all responsible drivers do) when you go shopping at Walgreens, you lazy ass...
And how about sympathy to the hard working Milwaukee, Wisconsin brothers and sisters in blue for having such a spineless, asshole chief and mayor that THEY sure turned out to be!
Retired, 30+

I apologize I was not able to attend... I was there in spirit .. I was committed to a side job that I need to work to be able to send my kids to the top schools.. I honestly did not realize how hard it was going to be financially when I was younger , now I know 😞

Fox TV just had the illustrious leader of the FOP. Mumbled, while some commie pig spit at the police. He did make John Dineen look svelte and streamlined by comparison.
NYPD opened their new training facility. It cost One Billion bucks! LAPD spend $41 million on just a refurbish of their facility. And they have many different Departments in LA County. Chicago does stuff on the cheap, always.
Spend the money on the Professionals , we are getting eaten alive in the Propaganda war here.
And yes turning your back on Rhama Dama Ding Dong every single time is a great start. You want Pro CPD news coverage , do like everybody else , hire the correct firm and buy it . You want your story bent to make it newsworthy then hire the slimy consultants that do that shit for a living . You "I'm just here for the freebies FOP" GET THE FUCK OUT AND POUND THE PAVEMENT...Inform Advise Push and Prod the Members and have a fucking SENSE OF URGENCY about this shit it's fucking important.
FOP should of made a point to contact the retirees.

Issue a handicap ticket and tow the car. There was no reason to talk to or engage the driver. I fear more officers will be set up by people and accused of brutality. Especially over a parking problem.
FOP is useless. They should have been in the front leading this protest. Dump FOP go with Teamsters.
Our only friends are Napolitano and Sposato, bottom line.
I would have had the car towed and impounded. Then leave. Entitled prick would come out of the store and not be able to find his car... call the cops to report it stolen, find it was impounded, and hand him a ticket when he shows up to claim it.
Why bother? The rich fuck could afford it. Impounds work on low income folks although some just leave the hooptie in the impound.
Why is simple mathematics so difficult for liberals?
Liberalism, socialism, communism, whatever you choose to call it, it sure scrambles the eggs.

Teamsters don’t want you. Was working years ago when Teamster made a full court press on CPD. Spent a lot of time and money and were voted down. Don’t think they want to go thru that again
Side note: big shout out to Mark Donahue who just acquired a 2 year contract as lobbyist for FOP at a rate of over $70,000 per year on top of the $600 per month as a trustee and all expenses paid during travel to Springfield. Very lucrative...I wonder if he was at the protest...

The most recent former president of Lodge 7 is supposed to be given the lobbying job until there is a more recent former president. Why wasn't it given to Deano?

While true that the financial impact would be minimal, there would still be the "stroke you around" factor.
Take your victories,however small, wherever you find them.
Feels like the world is against so it's no wonder why there wasn't that big of a turnout. Why bother fighting a machine that's been going strong for decades I transferred out of the Southside to the Northside for at least a bit of fresh air and some sunlight. At least some of the citizens appreciate us there. I'm just going to do 10 more years and do my best to dodge COPA, the fake news, these idiot crooked politicians, etc. Be safe brothers and sisters in blue.
