Blocking Traffic?
The CTU is making preparations to lose the tenuous support they currently have by inconveniencing thousands of Chicagoans:
- As Chicago Public Schools announced the cancellation of a seventh day of classes, hundreds of striking educators and support staff filled the auditorium at the Chicago Teachers Union’s headquarters Thursday to receive civil disobedience training.
The training session signals that members of the CTU and SEIU Local 73 are planning to escalate their aggressive demonstration efforts — and potentially face arrest. During the presentation, led by an SEIU Healthcare executive and a staffer for Sen. Bernie Sanders’ presidential campaign, the strikers were coached on blocking traffic and shutting down building lobbies.
One reader theorizes the teachers are going to assist the anarchists and antifa pussies to block traffic in and around downtown when Trump is here. The Department will probably announce day off cancellations after 1700 hours today.

I’m taking a wild guess that none of their recent protests on downtown streets were previously planned with the city or they secured proper permits.
Wow, I went to sleep and woke up in Seattle, or is this Portland? Hard to tell these days. I can guarantee you I will go to sleep one of these nights and I'll wake up where they don't look at these "heroes" as heroes. Like another state.
Already got word day’s off cancelled. I’d love to fucking lock a bunch of these teachers up. But you know the department will never allow that and we will just have to sit there and watch whatever happens. Fuck you CTU.
I hope they go through their antics. I hope it’s on a Friday or Saturday.
Throwing a load of Chicago Public School Teachers into the back of a bunch of wagons would be the highlight of any weekend.

I hope you all realize you're living in an Orwellian nightmare.
This is careening into deeper chaos. People getting arrested for merely uttering the n word (UCONN students), people getting fired for 'offending' women, media brainwashing, etc. This will lead to more mass shootings, unrest, then a civil war.
Wow! Their message to the kids(“they claim to care so much about”) keeps getting worse. First, they are telling the kids that if you don’t get your way you quit. Unfortunately they don’t tell the kids that the rest of the world gets FIRED if you don’t come to work. Now they’re telling the kids(they care about) that it’s ok to disrupt and act like thugs because they didn’t get their way. Great example these so called “teachers” are teaching the kids that “they care so much about.” These types should not be in our schools. Terrible example they’re setting. Everyone needs to remember, THE CTU TEACHERS walked out. There’s no one else to blame. PERIOD. They quit. They could have kept working and filed for arbitration but they made a choice and there’s consequences for it. Unfortunately they only hurt the kids and families. Such a caring group that CTU is.
Let them burn Lori’s city. Remember to get the supervisors name for the arrest report. R/O was ordered by (Sgt, Lt, Capt...)
Lightfoot needs to hold firm and not give in. The teachers are losing so much support and their losing motivation. If they start committing acts of civil disobedience or join in on any Trump protest, they will lose any support they had left. People will wonder what it is they really want? Behavior like that is not very “teacher like.” The teachers have no one to blame but themselves.
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!!!!
Get those S&S snow plows mounted!!!
Load up the salt spreader monster trucks!!!
When does that No Parking Snow Routes kick in???
It could never be so delightful
Then snow covering the blighful
Oh baby you gots to know
Let it Snow
Let it Snow
Let it Snow!!!!
Snowballs for Everyone!!!
Dont you police officers ever get sick of this crap ? Somehow they will get away with it and the police will do nothing. Maybe they will be chanting F the police too.
here's what happens when the Police strike.

Monday morning the teachers are going to block interior routes into the loop to show who's boss. They also are being told to target those working in the financial sector by blocking entrances to certain buildings. Being told that teachers will NOT be arrested under any circumstances unless approved by on scene supervision. This is coming straight from city hall.
I have no problem arresting any teachers!
To hell with them!
This is the start of a civil war!
Just lay down on the red,blue, and brown line tracks during rush hour. That will definitely get some attention. Just stay away from the third rail.
These teachers sure don’t look like the teachers we had years ago, they look more like Marxist guerrillas. Did you see them on the news tonight being taught all the radical left wing shenanigans, forming human chains and sitting down in the streets. You know they are going to infect their students with their socialist/communist ideology. So they are going to block traffic and shut down building lobbies. What about the rights of the poor citizens in traffic or the ones who need to get to work or shop in those buildings. Teachers used to have a high level of trust and responsibility. If they do this they should be arrested and fired. But guess what, they are going to draw the CPD into this debacle and try to bait the police into taking action which will not look good for the police no matter what they do. How dare they use the tactics of anarchists against the City that they work for. My guess is they are holding out until President Trump arrives on Monday for the Police Chief’s Conference to draw him in also and to try to embarrass him on national news. Be very careful if you are detailed to any of these protests as you are between a rock and a hard place.
Getting cold outside; snow will be here soon. Time to put the snowplow back on the pickup....
Honk Honk.
They're most likely going to engage in some type of shenanigans on Monday when President Trump is in town.
Regular blog reader here and I have to chime in on this. All the guys in my family have been in labor unions forever. Some of them helped start the labor unions. But I’ve got to tell you, my CTU girlfriends, as much as I have loyalty to organized labor, are getting on my last nerve to the point where I have to bite my tongue while they’re spewing their bullshit. No other labor union gets offered what they’ve been offered, and the reason they are sticking their noses up in the air is because their leadership has become a bunch of SJW Communists. Their unreasonable bargaining behavior is what gives Unions a bad name. It’s time they get a dose of reality. Lori should let them strike all year. Problems always have a way of working themselves out organically, if left alone long enough. Power is fleeting. And changes hands often.
I find it interesting, that Bernie Sanders and Pocahontas rushed to the teachers side to help organize and plot to disrupt the work day of thousands of Chicagoans, but not a word that CPD has been without a contract much longer and was offered much less. If they don’t want other trades crossing their picket lines, shouldn’t they be voicing concern for ALL workers who are without a contract?
Perfect Storm about to hit Chicago. Police Chiefs convention, a Republicin President coming to town, protesting teachers in the streets downtown joined by Antifa and out of school community criminals. Couple that your orders which will come from the 5th floor, Stand Down. Do nothing at all. What could go wrong. Chicago about to make national and possibly international news and not in a good way. Hope the mag Mile people are paying attention and securing their expensive inventory. Hope the State Police are on alert as they will be the only lawesome enforcement group that will do anything. The CPD will be officially neutered by the 5th floor at City Hall. Fat Head will be enforcing his Chicago Values by letting the rioters have their way. Soon after he will be found in another drunken super slumped over a hooker in his fancy city vehicle. This time not his fault what's happening to city would drive anyone to drink.

If this is true, the AFL-CIO and Business Manager of every Chicago construction union should be in Groot’s office today. Guy’s going to lose a day’s pay for this bullshit? What, it’s not enough that other unions will honor their picket lines? There’s a proper way to do things, and this ain’t it. They go through with this, fuck them.
There’s a lot of working poor that HAVE to get to work every day to keep the lights on. If they can’t get into the Loop, they may not be able to pay their light bill. That’s how serious this disruptive nonsense is.
That kind of Antifa shit may work in Portland or bubonic plague infested California, but this is CHICAGO baby. Someone just might get shot or run over if they piss someone off. Cuz we don’t play.
Will Special Ed walk hand and hand with them when they block traffic like he has done in the past? Hell, that might save his job.
These are not the teachers of your childhood. They’re Patty Hearst on steroids. Led by Jessie Sharkey, who lives in a half million dollar mansion.
Who they think they’re shittin?

The universe seeks balance. Everything in nature strives for homeostasis. And “normal” is what the MAJORITY of people agree on which is why change and chaos are always fleeting. Simple physics. The center will not hold extremes. It never has and it never will.
Looks like LSD is the plan with a meet at Buckingham Fountain.
This will be another NATO situation coming up..get ready for RDO cancellations!!! Those who get Cancelled will be going to areas around McCormick place and lake shore drive positions. Get ready for mass arrests.

As a (not CTU) teacher, I find it very unlikely teachers will do anything over the weekend for which they are not expressly receiving pay. Having worked in the real world before becoming a teacher, I can tell you (with very few exceptions) they are the laziest bunch of humans I’ve ever worked with in my life.
You couldn’t have time this more perfectly. I worked VRI last week and last night. There is a movie being shot across the street from the Chicago Hilton. The subject matter has to do with 1968 riots. I called them the riots because when I first got on the job there was still coppers on the job that worked the night the protesters went apeshit. One copper his name was Rick B. He was a solid guy. He told us that he was in the Academy during 68, he was sent out to the ninth district demand a radio and a desk. He related a lot of us guys who work at 35th and lowe with him that he seriously thought about quitting at night. He related that he heard copper screaming for their lives over the radio. These teachers are nothing more than Comie American hating, Police hating , Trump hating slime. Law and order. Law and order. Two words you will never ever ever hear a democrat say. At least old man daley gave the order...The order is giving...shoot to kill!
Hope the mayor stand up to them do not give in mayor do not given they are nothing but a bunch of terrorists threatening this holding the children hostage holding a citizens the taxpayers as pawns. If you given Lori this is the end do not given protect the taxpayers protect the good people fire every last one of them order them back to work Friday for Monday if they refuse whoever doesn’t show up Monday terminate them get rid of the health insurance and that same day to enough fuck them all.
This cannot be emphasized enough: “Be very careful if you are detailed to any of these protests as you are between a rock and a hard place.”
Of course we hold the teachers in disdain. But don’t get sucked into a bad situation; if they want to shut the city down - let ‘em. It’s Lori’s problem, not ours.
Hey, just refuse to go. It works for the Sup, not to go to Trumps speech.
How about the police go on strike so Trump supporters can properly defend themselves against the red menace?
CPS Teachers? Yeah right. These mutts became teachers because they flunked out of Mortuary Security Guard School. ♠️
Coddle people and this is the result.
Bernie knows about obstruction. When he was at the University of Chicago in the mid-1960's, he led a sit in at the Administration building. Great guy! A mistake by the Office of Admissions. Never admit anyone who has to travel west of the Hudson River.
CTU will try to shut down Trump Monday.
They may continue the strike to shut the
entire ICP conference.
They are a socialist organization,
not a teachers organization.
When you include pensions,CPS teachers are paid more than Northwestern professors.
School bus companies still getting paid to ride around empty.The reverends who own the bus companies are real gangsters.
It looks like their Venezuela trip was for multiple purposes. The want to test those communist tactics here. Time to bring in Federal Troops and end this charade.
So the teachers plan to block streets, highways, and building lobbies to prevent working people (who need their jobs to pay the taxes needed to pay the teachers) from getting to their jobs. Yeah, that will win over a lot of people to their side.
The union is dragging its feet to keep the strike going until President Trump's visit on Monday. They will surly be out in force locking arms with antifa and blm.

Teacher Neighbor thought the strike would be over last weekend ,with a groot cave... Now he is afraid school year may last into july, if snow days are used up .. but clown mayor groot will cave ...strike will be over this weekend
It’s getting a little chilly outside. Maybe a request to CFD to wash down the street to make it more comfortable to sit down and protest. Have to have a clean (wet) street for the assholes.....;)
Is there anything they won't do for their beloved students?
How about letting the “teachers” do whatever they want. Who cares? As long as they are not blocking the entrance to your property let them do whatever. Let the city burn and enjoy it from a far while snacking on popcorn.
This is Socialist madness and their support in the Democratic Utopia of Chicago dwindles by the day. Teachers in the private sector have turned their backs on these entitled whiners and the Chicago taxpayer is fed up by their 5-year extortion demands. The CPD has babysat them throughout the week but now the CTU wants to instigate a confrontation. It's Clown World...{honk honk}...wake me up when its over.
"Being told that teachers will NOT be arrested under any circumstances unless approved by on scene supervision. This is coming straight from city hall."
Groot is presiding over the Blue Urban Collapse in Chicago.
75+ years of one-party rule and corruption, and now the Blue People are literally striking against themselves while singing "it's all for the children." Total BS.
All the new Blue Leader can do is issue orders to let the populares run riot.
Read some history, Groot. You won the role of the pigeon at the poker table.

This has nothing to do with the teachers. For all we know school will be back on Monday. This is because of the activist assholes that will be protesting Trumps first visit to Chicago. You know, the groups that preach tolerance, inclusion, etc. The ones that also have the bumper stickers that say, “COEXIST” If the teachers are still on strike they’d be foolish to join them, risking their cause and losing the little support they may have left. But they’re not a very smart bunch.
They didn't visit Venezuela for no reason...

The teachers have done great damage to their reputation already. It’s amazing to hear so many citizens shocked at their behavior and furious with them. They don’t look like teachers at all. They’re very embarrassing to Chicago. It’s shameful. Too bad they follow the leaders of the CTU.
That jaggoff Sharkey is the one that pushed...wanted, goated this strike...about ...socialist power.
This is taken directly from the urban terrorist playbook, They are now threatening the people of the city of Chicago The hard-working people that are trying to make a living thanks to President Donald J Trump making America great again we have more jobs than people to fill them, but if the mayor would finally stand up in order to teachers back to work we could terminate them if they refuse enough of their bullshit it is time to stop the madness stop using the children as hostages as the Chicago teachers union is doing. The mayor says there is no more money there is enough they were asked to go back to work they already refused time to start the termination procedures by Monday we could have them all back at work if they knew they were going to be terminated they would scatter and just like the rats they are and do their jobs.
They are overpaid by a amount that is ridiculous all the time off they get yet they’re on TV right now crying about how hard they work who do they think they’re bullshitting how many children are graduating what is the graduation rate maybe 60%? And mayor why are we giving them three meals a day where is the parents and where are the parents that excuse me take care of their children? They need to be cut to give the children lunch and that’s enough and what about all the illegal children that are in there that were brought here with their illegal parents why Are we being forced to pay for them any other country you come in illegally with your children you are either turn back or put in prison that is the law the rule of law should be followed correct mayor? Maybe ask your Police superintendent about the rule of law after he has maybe another six pack or whatever he’s drinking
God bless the CPD that have to work on Monday. For the people who have to navigate to their offices during protests - you are held in high regard. It is mainly well behaved college kids who protest where I work but the CPD always shows professionalism and everyone feels safe because they are keeping everything orderly. I hope the teachers can behave as the college students do which is a very sad comment. Please know CPD is appreciated - you do a fantastic job for these protests.
Monday could be a perfect storm. Do your job and protect the people from the violent mobs. Remember the Trump rally at UIC? A man was found beaten to death a block from there in the aftermath. Didn’t hear too much about that one did you?
I don’t give a fuck !!!! Let them sit where ever they want I wouldn’t lock
Anybody up or put my hands on anybody unless you are a direct threat
To ME !!! Fuck that !!! If your a Sargent then you better order me to lock em
Up and then I’m going over the radio with that order just before I go in to
Put my hands on people .
Civil disobedience classes must be working. It’s For The Kids too.
Besides the few angry liberal teachers that show up, I’m sure CTU ACORN has more of their paid protestor contingents showing up than CPS morons. Then there’s always a few nothing better to out-of-work sympathizers who always like to join a good parade.
SpecialEd under city hall advisement was told to issue a stern stand down order.
He will be monitoring the action from his basement bunker.
They should be paid according to performance---zero.
Probably going to block LSD tonight let's see how the public favors them after it. They're playing right into LLs hands

Come on Groot, man up!
So it’s not enough that Chicago labor unions are honoring their picket lines, they’re going to shut down the Loop? Getting pretty obvious this isn’t about their contract OR the kids. It's about Sharkey’s Socialist agenda, Hope it blows up in his fucking face.

It’s not true. This is probably the guy who is always starting rumors, then saying “book it” or “take it to the bank.” Besides, these little loudmouths are a a bunch of p-ssies with cameras.

You sure you aren't a teacher? With grammar and spelling like that you certainly qualify for CPS.
Let them burn Lori’s city. Remember to get the supervisors name for the arrest report. R/O was ordered by (Sgt, Lt, Capt...)
Who signs the complaint?
SEIU, Soro's U.S. hating fascist army.
Fuck you Groot. You are not an Emperor, you are an elected caretaker. You are to act in the best interest of this City, which is to maintain order in this case.
Hope the State Police are on alert as they will be the only lawesome enforcement group that will do anything. The CPD will be officially neutered by the 5th floor at City Hall. Fat Head will be enforcing his Chicago Values by letting the rioters have their way.
Isp wont do shit. They couldn't handle the father faker expressway closure without our ppo bike teams. Johnson and Faker walked hand in hand and not one isp trooper stepped in to make an arrest. What a disaster that was. Chicago is off limits to any outside agency. Trump‘S goons(SS), isp, dea, fbi; CPD can’t and won’t back up anyone when orders come down. Johnson will tell them all to pack the up and leave. Where will they all process those arrests? Our lock ups are off limits. How about transports? Not in CPD wagons.
Most of you still have the 90’s mentality. LEO’s no longer have any authority. I believe law enforcement is the worse profession. Worth it for the money only. FETAL.

And she was just on the news saying she has no intention of meeting with the President while he is here. Full TDS on display on every local news station I watched. And strangely all the stories about the CTU strike and not one person interviewed telling them to go to hell.
We, the taxpaying residents of this city and county, are living our lives.
You, CTU members, are not vital to our living our lives.
No. You are not.
And no amount or abundance of your blatherings can transform you into being vital tyo us living our lives.
The absence of you would improve our lives.
As would the absence of so many like minded socialistas.
We work.
We earn.
We provide for ourselves and our families.
We do not require your particiapations, nor your interferences, nor you bloated cost ineffective extortions.
We endure your shit.
Until such time as you make your shit unendurable.
We then say, No More.

Hey where’s TOM DART hiding with all of this nonsense by CTU going on?
(please don’t bring up making pizzas or some other asinine comment).
Will Dart show up to welcome The President or send in Chief Leo to the IACP?
Will Dart send his County Patrol Officers in to assist CPD with this Civil Disobedience-or isn’t it actually Mob Action?
****
Lori, make your wife proud-grow a real pair (not Ben-Wahs) and start firing the CTU members who are nothing more than overpaid baby sitters for parents that can’t control their own demons.
There are plenty more real teachers out there who want to do the job the right way...
Stay safe and vigilant CPD. PLEASE REMEMBER-You matter to those that matter.

Abso-friggin-lutely. Last time Trump was in town the Secret Service hid behind the ISP, who hid behind the UIC Police, who in turn hid behind the CPD. All the while Trump supporters got beat down, assaulted and had their vehicles damaged. "Law Enforcement" was non-existent that night and has been neutered even further since then. Oh...and I guarantee no Chicago public school teachers supported Trump...then or now...and cheered on the violent socialist mob who shut down a legitimate presidential rally that had every right to continue in peace. Get ready for the exact same thing Monday. This definitely isn't the 1990's anymore. This job has become a joke and our leaders are an embarrassment. So stay alert, stay Fetal and stay alive.
Taxpayer here. Lightfoot should wait them out and even pull her offer from the table. CTU does not have public’s Support this time around. This is not for the children and they are well compensated as it is. To regular working and retired folks, they are viewed as greedy and even thuggish in their antics. They should also be paying more into their pensions. This is bullshit and the taxpayers are fed up. Order them back to work and then fire the ones that do not go back. PLAY HARDBALL MAYOR! Because taxpayers do not have any more money to cough up for this screwed up city.

Great idea. Timing is everything. There are a lot of people who are not happy with the CTU right now. This is a perfect time to wait them out. When they don’t get their paycheck and if after 30 she makes them purchase health insurance their union won’t be looking so good
They have some followers but everyday the CTU is making more enemies and the citizens are starting to find out who they are and their agenda
On July 3, 1968, PATCO announced "Operation Air Safety" in which all members were ordered to adhere strictly to the established separation standards for aircraft. The resultant large delay of air traffic was the first of many official and unofficial "slowdowns" that PATCO would initiate.
Pull all offers. Watch how fast the CTU falls apart. Offer 2% for each of the 5 years and an increase in the pension payment of 6% more. Tell the city taxpayers how much it will save the city. Time to play dirty.
