What's with the Uniforms?

Is this some summer initiative? OR a new direction for the D-Unit?
  • For some unknown reason we were notified that as of this morning we in RBT and SVU But Not HGCSU, are in uniform this week. Not sure why but a rumor is the DOJ and Consent decree know it alls, will be in 005 and the Area telling us how to be the Police and Investigate crimes. Maybe you have a source as to why this is happening?
Anyone know?

Maybe the powers that be want to relieve you of the stress of making wardrobe decisions. Kind of like with school uniforms. Don’t complain or you might get a ruler across your knuckles.

We are in uniform because crime is out of control and Johnson wants to keep is job. This is the best crime strategy he has.

ICE/Customs and Border Patrol is in town for their annual convention. Its being held at the Merriott, but Groot has told them to go away, we dont want them. She allegedly told them to cancel their convention and don't come. They told her to pound sand. Then she allegedly called the Marriott and told them to cancel the event, thats not something Chicagoans want. Marriott told her no. Its a legal and binding contract. So allegedly, groot hooked up with some activist groups/friends to march on the Marriott and protest the hotel and ICE/CBP. So, allegedly, the Mayor is organizing, coordinating and spearheading the protest and financial disruption of one of the leading industries in the City, based on her personal opinion.

its called a dance of smoke and mirrors.

Just think about this if you were a SO called monitor. The city is trying to lie and trick you.
Fake classes with exempts leaving early and showing up late.
Hiding detectives numbers by placing them in uniforms.

why not see a felony busdriver being spit on in action?

Or how about a shoplifter not being arrested in the act because they smell and pretend to be crazy?

Watch as stolen cars are never looked for and meter mades have the highest rate of finding stolen cars.

Ask the merit white shirts why they dont go to scene of multiple murders?

Ask the commander why he doesnt stop for state troopers in INDIANA in a squad car?

True story! I tried to post a comment on the 21st but it never showed. Time changes will also be in effect. This is what I’m hearing...
This is city wide until further notice: every weekend throughout the summer, the day tact teams will work 1200-2100 while the night tact teams will work 2100-0600. Everyone is in uniform starting Monday until further notice. Even detectives.

Uniform requirement is due to protests of the US Customs convention being held at the McCormick Place Marriot through Saturday. Basically Detectives will be on standby in case SHTF. Another way to get around manpower shortages.

It’s because of the monitoring team being on-site. It is not a usual practice under a consent decree, but the morons running this department and, in particular, the office of reform management are clueless.

They’ve had a lot of people in uniforms that usually aren’t and no one seems to know why. Tact teams, Dics, I think gang teams too, all in uniform. People have asked and no one can seem to get a straight answer. And to the inevitable cranky dick head who will complain about people with less time on than him, this isn’t people complaining about being in uniform, they’re just curious as to why. As there’s always a reason to why. 4th of July, Memorial Day weekend, Labor Day weekend, big protests planned, etc. but now there’s none of the usual reasons and no one will give a straight answer, so what’s the out of the ordinary reason? SCC posted about the DOJ and consent decree jerkoffs, that’s something I think coppers would like to know.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection is proud to announce that the 2019 Trade Symposium will be held on July 23-24, 2019 at the Marriott Marquis in Chicago, Illinois.

MLL tried to torpedo it at the last minute but no dice.

The way the tact officers dress these days, they should be in uniform, all of the time. It is not a covert unit and they do not do any " undercover work". Keep them in unmarked cars, for the most part, but let them work everyday in uniform. Then clean up their outrageous appearance. Boy, this job has certainly gone to shit.

All Dets in all Areas and Units and/or just the 20%’ers?
This is nothing unusual.
But if the DOJ Consent Team was going to give a speech about 21st Century Policing they could give twoshits about what shirt you’re wearing. The seasoned can suspend a bs case in their skivvies and still make a tour out of it.

An Accountability Moooooo-day Jugghaid SpecialEd spontaneous strategy.
Last night 10 shot & 1 kil’t on a Monday and what, some 30-40 more blue shirt optics kept down the bloodshed?
LightLoafer’s non-sworn brain trusts have all the answers and the milquetoast dipstick SpecialEd signs off on these orders.

Y’all could be the donkey punch in the Flooding of the Zone blitzkrieg but Hands Off it’s just for show.
Like a rapid deployment contingent for the weekend Fiasco Del Sol, up and available to impede any ICE roundup there.

This is another pathetic Accountability Monday knee jerk reaction, nothing more.
Don’t sweat the small stuff, it’s all small stuff.
Diminutive Lootin’Groot is just pigeon posturing. sHe has no plan other than screw with the police.

Apparently ICE and Border Patrol are having a conference at McCormick place and they want to have everyone in uniform in case mass protests and or civil disobedience occurs just like the guy with the guns and explosives at the Portland ICE facility a couple of weeks back. Relax. You’ll all be back in your leisure suits and backwards baseball caps with your Vertx pants in no time.

do lori lightfoots bodyguards wear body cameras ?
if not , why not
citizens would want any attack of the mayor recorded
are her bodyguards in uniform
why does cpd have over 1,000 officers assigned to clerical duties
why are tactical officers taken away from patrolling entire district to protect gang bangers only
why didn't district commanders assign the 6 - 9 police officers assigned to CAPS Office to report in uniform and patrol hot spots from 1400 to 0900hrs , i'm sure they could get CAPS work done from 0630-0900hrs when the second watch hits the street
CAPS officers work approx 4-5 hours on a long day and none is enforcing laws
tactical secretaries , unauthorized position 23x1 = 23 one man beat cars could be on patrol , protecting citizens where is the Inspection division CAPS Officers = no police activity , short hours and shopping , attending school on duty

I’m tired of whiny ass detectives complaining about having to occasionally be in uniform. Last I checked u can give up that position and go back to patrol. Also not sure who the “coward ass bosses” are but when the 1st deputy sends out an order it’s not open to interpretation.

The clothes you wear don't dictate what kind of police work you do. You dicks get premium pay too. I have seen great arrest done by uniformedbeat cops. I think in the summer detectivesshould be on patrol ad response cars and do paper if needed. If they call you for a dicks job then you go to that. Too much dead weight on this job, poor district people cant get time off.
