Learning Curve
How many times do we have to post this?
- A man was killed late Sunday morning when a stolen Jeep fleeing from Chicago police crashed into a bus shelter on the city’s Far South Side, authorities said.
Charges were pending against two males and a female inside the Jeep shortly after the 11:40 a.m. crash in the 9900 block of South Van Vlissingen Road in the Jeffery Manor neighborhood, police said.
After the owner of a stolen white Jeep called police when he traced his vehicle to the 10100 block of South Crandon Avenue, officers in the area quickly spotted the vehicle and tried curbing it, police said in a statement.
The Jeep with three occupants quickly sped away before crashing into a bus shelter about a half-mile from where they fled, police said. A person inside the shelter, a 27-year-old man, was killed in the collision, police said.
Someone runs up to you and yells, "There's goes my stolen car."
The hardest thing in the world to do at that point is reply, "Do you have insurance?"
But if you don't think that's EXACTLY what the city and Department want you to do, well, you're going to be spending a lot of time in court listing assets and wondering how big a cardboard box you're going to need in short order.

My question would be how did it get stolen? Did you leave it running with the keys inside? Well, too bad you’re an idiot
Stupidity
At this stage in the game, if you're chasing stolen cars and that chase turns out bad, you deserve everything coming to you. Sorry, not sorry.
That probably applies to most proactive policing nowadays too.

Add a shipping pallet of Depends too for these

They AND their family members will need them
by the time the community and the aclu are done
doxxing and ruining them.
I hope 6711H reads this. They’re trying real hard to get sued in 002 lately.
I've been retired for over ten years and it seems like it was years before that they were saying no chases. As long as you and other P.O.s are not victims of violence forget about it. Why get sued or go to prison for nonsense?
The Catch 22 that democrat policy has imposed upon law enforcement:
1. Law enforcement is expected to "Protect & Serve". This is the lie that even some law enforcement officers actually believe. To enforce law does not require obligation to protect, nor to service. Residents, of whatever nature, are convinced that police are obligated to serve them and protect them. The la enforcers themselves have participated in this convincing. The perception that police are servants of residents is false. The truth that police are enforcers of laws is the truth most difficult to accept. The criminals have no difficulty in accepting this.
2. The law, as written, is, theoretically, intended to, with effective enforcements, result in residents being protected from criminals, and, thus, being served by this general effect of: less criminals free to commit crimes = fewer crimes being committed = residents experience benefits of enforcements of laws. The democrats fnd this to be not what the democrats want. Funny thing that.
3. So, democrats wanting non effectual enforcements of laws + crimnals availing opportunities of democrats getting what democrats want + residents not criminals being acutely aware of preceeding + residents still elect/reelect same flavor democrats = residents can cry me a fucking river.
Catch a .22, .25, .38, .45, 9mm, 10mm, nato caliber available, what the fuck ever, residents can continue to cry me a fucking river.
This is the democrat way.
Soak in it.
You democrats have earned it.
OT: After they told us numerous times over the past week that they had heard nothing about RDO cancellations from headquarters, our Unit administration told us at 1645 on July 1st that all 3rd watch RDOs were cancelled July 3-7. We all thought it would most likely happen, but WTF? Guys were in limbo as far as making plans for their days off over the holiday weekend. How the fuck did 35th Street not know they would cancel days off between July 3-7 before 1645 on July 1st? Did the July 4th weekend sneak up on them because there no calendars in the building at 35th Street? FOP needs to address this in the next contract. It’ bullshit they can cancel people with as little as 45 hours notice for those RDO on July 3rd.
It is spelled out in plain English in the chapter titled "Ghetto Lottery 101, How to Increase Your Odds." You don't have to have a name like "Beto" to understand.
I'll say this over and over again, don't car chase, don't foot chase, don't even stop anyone. Fuck the ACLU and fuck those ISR's,which were simply field contact cards till the ACLU came up with the bull shit ISR. Can't wait till the law suits come down the pipes. WAKE UP...STOP !!!!!!!
And if that stolen car just shot five gang bangers in front of you on a dry, low traffic night, the answer is still the same...No!!!! You don't believe that? Read the general order and explain how you can chase and NOT be on Front Street. I would love to know. You don't need to like these answers to be smart enough to follow them.
Watch for Lightfoot to start going after these cops that get involved in these chases that result in the death or severe injury to innocent people.
I am the "working police". In 011 the bosses let you work.
Every ‘news’ report was quick to notify the public that ‘it was White Jeep, it was a White Jeep, a White Jeep did this, a White Jeep killed the innocent bystander!’ As for the 3 car jacking thieves-they’re only one identified as ‘three offenders fled on foot.’
Chcago was a great City at one time but now it's just a Shitty City. It's a shame, but we might as well just give the streets to the thugs. The Shitty of Chicago will never admit it, but that's what they really want these days. The crooked Shitty politicians will give them anything in exchange for votes.
Oh yea, fuck Kim Fox.
Don't chase for theft! Stay Fetal! Have a Happy 4th of July week and Week end! Stay Safe!
Here's another way of looking at it!!! Our wonderful tax raising representatives in Spongefield, Il could pass a law limiting most of these lawsuits stemming from criminal's law breaking behavior against the police when trying to legitimately enforce the laws...Either that or decriminalize everything and just let everyone carry a gun...Either way we will get to where we want to be!!!

Are you New Here?
They fucking knew. They just don't care about you in blue.
To 12.51 Bo Ho. You knew this was coming has been the case for the last 3-4 years don't make any Holiday plans. How hard is that to understand.

No sympathy for these guys. If these young kids are coming on this job to anything other then save up for a couple Sprinters for their construction business and move to Mount Prospect, they’re morons. It’s a Shame because most of these young Polish kids coming on are doing exactly that.

I was only going to be a minute, two at the most. The craving for a mocha double latte' was just so overwhelming. I left my Rover running because I did not want to return to a warm car. That's a good enough reason, right?
Coppers need to get used to saying to themselves and others, We Have a No Pursuit Policy.
Ram that into your heads.
Under No circumstances do you chase a vehicle.
O.T. Concerning the pension everyone should look at this. FOP? Yeah your worthless.
https://youtu.be/d_zGxPfWYM0
I live a couple counties over in Indiana, we chase folks all the time, generally back to Illinois. It's our way of letting your folks know they're not welcome, and when we do catch them there is no Kim fox to protect them, enjoy your stay at one of our fully funded jails or penitentiaries.
No more chases cowboys, get the gung ho out of you before it’s to late, let the mayor and her minions figure it out along with aclu and the community.
If the CPD Department policy is "No Chases", why do officers still chase? Don't they know that violation of directives can lead to severe disciplinary action, or worse, Separation from the Department? In a worse case scenario, Civil litigation and punitive damages, or quite possibly criminal charges and imprisonment?
What part of "No Vehicle Pursuits" Do they Not Get? PO's need to turn off the "robotic" responses to stimuli such as vehicle pursuits. In this case, the victim located his own car. Next step of "being fetal" is let him go recover it. Touring the area with negative results seems appropriate here. "Wait right here Mr. Victim while we look around"
The victims vehicle was damaged. Nothing was gained here, and a life was lost. Some lawyer is going to have a field day with CPD.
"And if that stolen car just shot five gang bangers in front of you on a dry, low traffic night" - you talk likr that's a bad thing.
If the Jeep crashed 1/2 mile from the point at which they ran from the police, and if they were going fast enough in that 1/2 mile to be so out of control as to crash into the bus stop, is it possible they weren’t actually being chased? Maybe just thinking they were being chased was enough for these thieving morons. 1/2 mile isn’t very far.
Put governors on all the squad cars. Set them at 35 Mi. per hour speed limit.
Holding the driver of the stolen car accountable is not in the Democrat playbook.
Pardon my civilian ignorance, but doesn't every traffic stop constitute a chase under this definition? How is a cop supposed to know who's going to flee and who's going to pull over?
In a normal Illinois county, where the state's attorney would actually follow the law, the charges would be 1st degree murder.
In Cook, where the prosecutors are SJWs and work to protect criminals from the law, the charges will either be low level felonies to be pled down to misdemeanors, or no charges at all.
I live in Palos Heights and the police here are prohibited from chasing anyone. They stumble across people stealing from cars in the middle of the night and let them drive off. The cops here drive these large Chevy trucks so they could not pursue if they wanted to. Looks pretty silly
Off topic.
The Bean at Millennium Park was tagged last night by gangbangers
Latin Counts from 35th.
It won’t be too long before Criminalisha decides to prosecute one of the hard-chargers chasing a ‘community’ member who kills somebody.
This is cook county, where crime does pay.
I learned a little trick from my civilian sister-in-law: remove your house keys from your ignition key (or fob) prior to starting your car . If you're jacked they will only get your car key and not your house keys.
Simply put, when you chase a car you are putting your career and possibly freedom in the hands of the fleeing shithead.
If he stops immediately and gives up you’re fine.
If he runs over a pedestrian, it’s your fault.
If he crashes into another car and kills an elderly person, it’s your fault.
If he gets out and runs then turns on you and you end up using force, it’s your fault.
Basically if anything goes wrong it’s your fault.
At least that is how the public and the department most likely will view it.
Why would you chase unless he just shot a fellow officer?
The answer is you shouldn’t.
All this time I thought is was ON.
Good thing there’s no prescreening or annual qualification for dyslexia.
Somewhere lost in the translation, it’s likely that 95% of crime (that leads to an inconvenience arrest and affordable bond) in Chicago is non-punishable beyond that CPD detention in Cook County.
Whatever the heck SpecialEd is selling, the merit package hopefuls are buying.
Don’t think anyone is that cockeyed to chase for CB’s just to stay on a watch or team.
Señora Froggie says;
Nacho car.
Nacho community.
Nacho bidness.
...but appreciates the hard charging proactivity that keeps el’COPA active and the narrative going.
I'm not sure how they could make it more clear. They don't want you enforcing the law. The only reason police are still around is because they physically and legally cannot dissolve the department. How many different ways can they say it? And how many times will coppers let ego and pride ruin their life, and their families lives? For what?! A 2004 Toyota???
Off topic but the temperatures thru the 4th of July weekend will range from the high eighties to the low nineties. Does anyone want to predict what will be higher the Temps or the number of people shot.
any how many times do we have to tell you. Lights get activated then deactivated. dont get spun on media narrative.
Stolen car?
Who gives a shit.
Stolen car that just committed a forcible felony?
Who gives a shit.
Stolen car that just ran over a copper?
Get that f*cker.
That's the new reality my friends. Sad but true.
If you are still 'working" or getting "heads"something is wrong with your head.Refuse tac, 06,sat,gang,narcotics,mobile...they are all trick bags. For your 2-3 year wonders you are not bas ass for wearing a hat backwards and jeans,nkust stupid and ignorant.
Can’t teach common sense.
Lightgroot just going to down ALL cars. CPD will only be allowed to ride the new scooters.
COPA in charge now. Good luck.
STOP ALL PURSUITS!!! Get it through your thick skull. Whether you are right or wrong; you will be sued and/or fired and possibly incarcerated because your actions resulted in death. This is the new reality that our society has become.

She is going after all the chases. After LSD pursuit with land rover, anytime chase ticket gets pulled COPA calls the station and drills DSS for all the details of the pursuit. If it's serious enough they might even come out.
No chases , No street stops
that is what the politicians , community activists , organizers demand .
what they do not want us to do is document every crime committed , write paper on every crime
let the detectives unfound it , every shots fired call deserves a case report , every domestic battery must be documented , victim doesn't want a report , tuff luck , write down what she said upon arrival
people are unstable , violent today , you may end up wrestling , tasing , shooting an offender of many domestic battery that were not documented by beat car , write the report , you do not have to arrest the person
stay safe , no chases , no searches , drive by the groups of young men , do write the telephone in hands of driver , let person know it was Jaba prickster

To the male paramedic on ambulance 66 responding to the Daley Center, on july 2 @ 10:50 a.m., a word of advice.
When a citzen says good morning and asks how your day is going, the polite response is to answer.
If you are too busy to talk, which i doubt because you were just standing there while your partner talked to the security guard. The polite response is to zmile.
Only a jagoff ignores the comment and spits.
Before I retired from the West Side, if someone said hello, you answered.
Sorry......these coppers that get involved in car chases are just plain stupid.They will soon be unemployed and assets taken by a judge. How many times does this have to repeat itself.
Tough spot even for guys trying to just make a traffic stop. Once offender takes off it’s a chase whether you stop and discontinue it because once it’s started badguy has no idea if it was cancelled and continues to flee the area. If an accident happens the attorney will claim you continued the chase. A real catch22
Lori Lightfoot can help save pension by eliminating all exempt positions except the top two , offer all exempts pay at civil service rank and a non pensionable bonus if they deserve it by reducing crime ,quality of life , having officers under their command follow rules ,regulations,uniform ,grooming standards , require caps Officers to work a full tour with some police activities.
well, you're going to be spending a lot of time in court listing assets
Put everything in your mother's name store cash in safety deposit boxes!

And yet you have LT J.C. In gangs stomping his feet and yelling because his unit is way below his projection for gun arrests in 2019. This guy is an absolute joke, he thinks this is still the 90s.

There is nothing in the general order which allows chases
They need to be made an example of. Only way the thick headed hard chargers will get it. Fired and sued and left on their own twisting in the wind. Sorry but only way the message will get understood.
336am, you’re a genius!
Police chasing thieves in a stolen vehicle seem to usually end with the stolen car totaled. Either the cops total it or the thief does.
It is better for the owner to find the stolen car, if it's not parked already follow discretely until it is. Wait for the thieves to leave. Then use one's own keys to drive it away to the nearest safe location. Park. Then call the cops and say you've recovered your car.
"The Catch 22 that democrat policy has imposed upon law enforcement"
The government courts ruled that police have no obligation to protect anyone. Now it is the popular perception that they are supposed to, but the reality is that a person is on his own to protect himself. If this perception were shattered completely then people would start wondering why they pay taxes.

I agree about chasing, its a bad idea. But if you ride around and avoid work all day and do nothing, then you are a piece of crap putting yourself and the rest of us in harms way. Civil unrest and attacks on the police are more prevalent today because of your lazy ass attitude. There is a balance, be smart. No need to intentionally put yourselves in bad situations while still doing your job. And for God sake, can we stop wishing lawsuits and complaints on the few that still like to be the police. That's simply f'd up.

Will be interesting to see what Kim will so with these seven. Can here it now, FREE THE BEAN SEVEN chant. New group started in Chicago BTM or Bean Taggers Matter. LOL
Hey 11:03 sorry your panties are in a wad. Maybe they had something more important then acknowledging you on there mind. Like maybe where is the victim. Your just not as important as you think. Sorry to burst your snowflake bubble.
Maybe instead of taking your guns they should take your cars. Give you bikes or scooters. Citizens would be much safer. Cars first then guns finally whistles due to abundance of noise pollution and community complaints. There all the problems solved no more Ghetto Lottery checks necessary. City will save a ton, gas and upkeep costs, new car acquisitions, range time costs and of course the big one no more seven or eight figure Lottery checks. City gets the policing it wants and you get to ride around and get to know your community better.

In my working years, in one of the south districts, my partner and I attempted to curb a older Honda driven by a shithead but the car immediately takes off on us. Never did we put ourselves down on a traffic stop. We didn’t chase either, even back then. Poor driving skills and family at home was the reason to avoid pursuits. It just wasn’t worth it in the end. The plan was to complete a administrative impound by police and call it a day. About 600 feet down the road the shithead loses control of the vehicle, fish-tails and hits a light pole. We notify the dispatcher of an on-viewed traffic crash which later turned out to be fatal. We also find a gun in the shithead’s car. All in all, the tax payers won twice that day. Furthermore, the rusty light pole did not sustain ANY damage. That was a blessing.
"How many times do we have to post this?"
SCC,
Please post this everyday for a week.
Maybe a subliminal message will occur
and everyone will finally get it.
If not, then, after 7 days we can all laugh
at the fool who calls in a chase.
As long as we are talking about NO. No more NIKE after the caved into Kapperdick on the American Flag shoes. No more NIKE at all.
To the male paramedic on ambulance 66 responding to the Daley Center, on july 2 @ 10:50 a.m., a word of advice.
When a citzen says good morning and asks how your day is going, the polite response is to answer.
If you are too busy to talk, which i doubt because you were just standing there while your partner talked to the security guard. The polite response is to zmile.
Only a jagoff ignores the comment and spits.

Maybe he was busy listening to the security guard, because that was the reason he was there. Or maybe he just didn't hear you because he wasnt looking for conversation from random people when he was obviously called there for an emergency. You sound like a 12 year old girl who is upset her crush didn't notice the bow in her hair.
Off Topic: Can someone explain the clusterfuck at the Markham courthouse today? Rumor has it some dummy thought it would be a good idea to shut off the air conditioning at night and weekends (“to save money”) and then expect the building to cool off ten minutes after they open. So there’s that. Then apparently, the heat from the lack of air conditioning “did something to the gaskets in the water main” and they had to shut off the water, close the bathrooms, and send everyone home for the day at noon. Is this incompetence, or a staged excuse to raise taxes because we don’t have enough money to maintain the courthouses?
Why are police responsible for some asshole who breaks the law, then flees the scene and causes a crash? Did I miss something. When the fuck did this happen? It’s like living in a parallel universe....
But I’m proactive

T: After they told us numerous times over the past week that they had heard nothing about RDO cancellations from headquarters, our Unit administration told us at 1645 on July 1st that all 3rd watch RDOs were cancelled July 3-7. We all thought it would most likely happen, but WTF? Guys were in limbo as far as making plans for their days off over the holiday weekend. How the fuck did 35th Street not know they would cancel days off between July 3-7 before 1645 on July 1st? Did the July 4th weekend sneak up on them because there no calendars in the building at 35th Street? FOP needs to address this in the next contract. It’ bullshit they can cancel people with as little as 45 hours notice for those RDO on July 3rd.
7/02/2019 12:51:00 AM
35th Street told the districts a week and a half ago RDOs were being cancelled. You can easily pull up the BOP’s in the Document Management System and check it yourself. Stop with the blame game just cause your districts sucks at communicating this. The deadline for districts to submit names and numbers was last Friday. BOPs came out a week and half before that.

FUCK Portland and the Mayor who told police to stand
down while Antifa beat journalists.
FUCK these pig swine sanctuary cities.
To:
I am the "working police". In 011 the bosses let you work.
I really hope this comment was meant to be sarcastic.
Anyone who would refer to themselves as “the working police” even anonymously is a tool.
Just because you work in 011 doesn’t make you “the working police.”
I wonder if the bosses are letting you work or simply looking the other way. If it goes very bad rest assured they will not be able to take the heat off of you even if they wanted to, which I doubt they do. If they really cared they’d be making sure you worked in a manner that would help you stay out of trouble. If they’re “letting” you chase they’re not that smart. The general order is very clear and you won’t have a fucking leg to stand on if you continue a chase in violation and someone is hurt.
Stop trying to police like I did in the ‘90s just like we didn’t try to police like the older guys did in the ‘70s and ‘80s when I came on.

You’re a house mouse, quit your freaking crying you act like you’re going to work on the south & Westside. My heart goes out to you, you’re off every weekend/straight days and don’t have deal with the public. Make sure you have bullets in your pistol.
I’m in unit 610 and that was when they notified us. How about next time you get your feelings hurt you don’t call in an agg batt PO.
I remember years ago when I had to take a day at the driving range for a similar scenario posed by SCC. I had a citizen wave me down and point at a van a block away and said "that guy just stole my van". Long story short the offender made good his escape, Sgt terminated and all proper procedures, so I thought, were followed until WC called me into his office a few days later and handed me the one day refresher course. When I asked the reason he stated that the car chase was theft related and we don't chase for that. From that day on I got the message loud and clear. I was lucky that no one was hurt. So lesson here: simply tell victim, we don't chase stolen cars, absent certain aggravating factors. Then simply ask if they know their plate or VIN and you'll be happy to make them a report or referred them to ARP, which most Sgts would prefer in order to keep you up for more important things. Ha ha, live and learn.
Always remember, and never forget, reform begins at the bottom. If you blue shirts were so smart you’d be at the top.

My question would be how did it get stolen? Did you leave it running with the keys inside? Well, too bad you’re an idiot
Not necessarily, now. I have a new car, with no key, just a fob. If you’re out of the car, but close enough to it, it’ll start. I’m surprised it doesn’t happen more, especially at a gas station, where you’re in very close proximity to the vehicle. The model I have, you can unlock the car, no-touch, with the fob in close vicinity. Push start and go. They could be gone in seconds.

I agree about chasing, its a bad idea. But if you ride around and avoid work all day and do nothing, then you are a piece of crap putting yourself and the rest of us in harms way. Civil unrest and attacks on the police are more prevalent today because of your lazy ass attitude. There is a balance, be smart. No need to intentionally put yourselves in bad situations while still doing your job. And for God sake, can we stop wishing lawsuits and complaints on the few that still like to be the police. That's simply f'd up.

Throw back to 2001. Anyone remember Jackie Jackson storming through the jungle of Vieques, Puerto Rico with Luis Guiterrez? She was wearing a powder blue pants suit with her purse slung over her shoulder? Uh huh. This happened right after Jesse Jackson’s love child was discovered and Jesse had to show the world that his wife was still a relevant civil rights leader. I’m sure it scored some points at home and the public got a good laugh out of it.
It was the most ridiculous staged event I ever saw. Isn’t it nice that our “leaders” get to play out their personal dramas on the world stage?
Do NOT chase for any reason at all! None!!! Answer your calls and go home safely. This is the type of policing that they want. So give it to them.

Use your head. That's different than just chasing a hot car. If you have reason to believe the scenario as you stated above, it's a totally different set of rules.
When did it become the polices fault on injuries in chase crashes? The police at no time told the offender to run, in fact, they were saying the opposite (STOP).
Lmao!!!!
Someone from 620 said they close their cases!!!

Read some of the case law on it.
Lt. JC from unit 312 is possibly one of the only officers in CPD history to be a victim more times than he’s been in Box 1.
His heart is in the right place, but don’t fall for his “rah rah” schtick.
He pushes his guys into shitty situations in a climate that isn’t suitable for it.
If he wants guns, he is still the police last time I checked, he can go get one.
Most likely that story ends as it usually does, with him biting off more than he can chew, and getting saved by responding officers.
If you can't peruse... Does that mean you also can't chase after them? DETAILS MAN!
Chase and race?! NO MORE!

You guys are wrong regarding case law for pursuits. Supreme Court has ruled it's perfectly reasonable to chase, unless the circumstances "shock the conscience". Everybody also forgets about California agencies chasing for anything and everything. Nobody is more liberal and fucked up than the state of California, yet they get into car chases hourly. It's CPD pursuit policy that is fucked up, not the supreme court established case law.
Man how things have changed. As a kid growing up in Rogers Park during the 70s, one of my meighbors was kidnapped. Coppers were flying the through allies and streets chasing the asshole’s car. My brother swears there were guns fired too. I don’t remember that part, but it was like something out of the movies. Helicopter, tons of police cars everywhere. Cops told us to go inside our homes, eventually the kid was let go and the asshole was caught. Thankfully.
