Granny Looking for Work

  • In a stunning show of power, the Oakland Police Commission — a group of civilians — voted unanimously Thursday night to fire Oakland Police Chief Anne Kirkpatrick without cause, an action that caught many city leaders by surprise.

    The firing required approval from Mayor Libby Schaaf, who hired the chief three years ago. Moments after the commission’s vote, Schaaf phoned Kirkpatrick to inform her that she was out of the job.

    The decision followed a long-simmering tension between the chief and the commission, which was created by a voter-approved ballot initiative in 2016 that aimed to rebuild trust between officers and their community.
This is exactly the type of commission that Groot promised was coming here, though now she's dragging her feet establishing it.

Granny Clampett isn't hurting for money though:
  • Kirkpatrick will receive one year of her salary as severance. When she was hired in 2017, Kirkpatrick’s total compensation was $299,675, including salary and benefits.
As you can see, it pays to be a mercenary.

Oh fuck no! That crazy sjw might show up at our doorstep! She and LL are card-carrying members of a couple or more of the same clubs. In a couple of weeks she will claim she is rested and ready. She already has the uniforms!

She-yaaaht...

Mercenaries can at least be accused sometimes
of having morals, integrity and a conscience.

These legendary Law Enforcement gypsy travelers
who have been hop-scotching the length and breadth
of this nation with their diploma mill PHDs in
"Police Science" and other similar such bull-jive
are the most persistent and pernicious purveyors
bojankery in modern times.

"Expert Police Depertment Fixer For Rent/Hire"

The high order muni-gov imbeciles should shit and be
ashamed for inflicting this crazy shit on their taxpaying,
law abiding, oppressed and much put upon citizenry.

Public Order, Public Peace and Public Safety are wholly
subordinate to political, cultural, racial/racialist
pandering and the nasty-assed progressive collectivist
agenda.

Particularly in America's democrat-controlled
large urban centers like Chicago, NYC, L.A.,
the Bay Area, Portland, Seattle and others.

Fuck these fools and the wild-eyed, Police-Hating
mayors, city councils and Police Boards that give
them the time of day.

All they excel in is bringing ANY meaningful
Law Enforcement in every city they momentarily
roost in, to a m/fing standstill if not a full
power reverse.

"Lick-Hitters" gettin' them dollars...

Grand-Daddy summed up similarly vile m/fers like these thusly:

"Everywhere they set foot, they kill the muthafuckin' grass!"

Meanwhile, there's always this:
"Police Reform should happen hard, fast and right now!"

Hard, fast and right now to/at/on WHOM?

That nasty progressive noise means absolute dick-all
to the Policeman in the field who has made himself
a very small and hard to hit target and for damned
good cause and reason...

Police Like You Have No Friends.

Look.
Point & Laugh.
Leave.

Only because counter to the finest tradition of Chicago democrats, she'll lose control over who keeps the superintendent gig. This will also create the same problem for future onslaught of democratic mayors.

The picture of her on Fox News’ website was not flattering at all (not that there are any good pictures of her) but some of the comments about her were even better, including, “she looked like she was ready for retirement 20 yrs ago”, “ I'm sure she is as competent as she is lovely! My God what a beast!”, “ I think she should've retired back in the 1800s.”, and “ Wow. She looks older than RBG.” . When you’re on the wrong end of a Ruth Bader Ginsburg comparison, you know you’ve hit rock bottom!

Great judge of ability........l

"I'm confident that she'll be very successful in Oakland," said President of the Chicago Police Board Lori Lightfoot.

Lightfoot was impressed by Kirkpatrick, calling her a natural leader.

"Oakland has a lot of the same challenges in its police department and with the violence that Chicago has, she's got a lot of experience that she'll bring to bear in the job that lies ahead," Lightfoot said.

And, as nutty a liberal and SJW that Kirkpatrick was, she in fact was not liberal enough for the great city of oakland. Thats why she was fired.

Sounds like Granny actually supports her officers against the wishes of the Police Commission.
She would not fire the five officers that shot a homeless man with a gun.
So she gets fired. How soon before the next hatchetman/ woman fires the five officers?

She was fired for "failing to diversify the department in order to gain community respect". Maybe the "community" should stop robbing/beating/murdering. There is a lot of crime in the community by criminals of color. Department diversity is not the cause of the crime.

Power to The People.
Groot is being called out by the Grassroots folk for not having their group dictate police policy, something she said was very interested in to compliment COPA.

CPD versed Granny Clampett might just be that historic first niche LightLoafer is looking for.
Does it matter who runs the Dept when short angry, hostile mayors like LightLoafer will still meddle? We’ve always had Yes-Men for Superintendents to a degree, then came the SpecialEd Experiment absolutely the worse idiot to ever hold the position. The next Supe has a very specific act to follow and it doesn't include any blessing from the rank and file.

We lost the battle long ago and the war too, it’s them against us now.
Jane Byrne style support is not and never coming back - ever.
Get on the 1st and 16th bus now and forget about pro-active policing of any sort altogether.

So much of what goes for the " best person for the job" is nothing but identity politics of the liberals. It seems that it is fashionable to now appoint a women, a women of color , a Asian or a Hispanic or a black man to chief of police. When you hear the progressives speak of this they always trot out the old refrain of the Irish that used to run most major city police departments. That was then and this is now. The CPD has been run down and tainted by corrupt patronage and identity politics. Why can't a black person command a police district in a mostly Hispanic area? Assign more black officers to a mostly Hispanic area. Mix up all of the police districts. maybe this will help to curb the corruption that goes on , the favoritism and the cronyism .

Did she apply here after Johnson exited? Granny after Johnson would be following one of the modern themes in our society. Tried the Johnson. Steadily tired of the Johnson. Came to really dislike the Johnson. Came to launching the Johnson. Looked for an a answer on the other side of the street at an alternate address. That's one of the modern ways to finding a new solution.

Wasn't Rahm al-Ghoul, the nasty little North Shore
pansy try to pull a funny on Granny while he had
her name in the pot for Stupidintendent and she
threatened legal action thus he had to "give her"
some jumped-up bulljive "Police Policy" position?

>Snicker!<

Rahm's a dirty-assed little cockroach who shit
himself at the prospect of litigation.

A m/fer who excels at flitting from pillar-to-post
and operating in the shadows... Judicial Discovery
scares the shit out of him and all his kindred.

We actually applauded Granny for putting one over
on Rahm but that's about as far as our grace and
favor goes.

We disdain/ed her because she's a "Lawyer-visor."

We've never encountered a "Lawyer-visor" on this
job who was worth even a shit between two shoes
on the wrong feet. Absolutely USELESS as Policemen
and will get working Policemen physically hurt and
administratively fucked-up because they know so much.

...So much that just ain't so.

Word in the HQ is she is heading back to Chicago for another 6 figure a year job. I say Oakland should sue for failure to perform duties agreed upon. Then they could recover their money and give it to some homeless program.

This is more proof that "Law Enforcement" procedures and policies can not co exist with the far left's ideas and policies. If you want to make a cake, you have to break a few eggs.
If you want the Police to "Police", a small minority of perps feelings, and right to "rape" and "pillage" will have to be brought to justice. I ask what about "Victim's" rights whenever I hear about prison and "social" justice reform. Since the ASA's office used to speak for them, lets start there...and break a few eggs.

What did she do while in Chicago? Anything worthwhile at all? She did let OPD participate in an ICE raid, of course that got her into trouble. Suppose to have been human trafficking but even that isn't a good enough reason for the leftest extremists in Oakland. She's a lawyer, she should teach, a perfect place for her type.

"Kirkpatrick has faced controversy in Oakland, including for her decision to promote command staff implicated in the cover-up of the massive sex abuse scandal involving the underage daughter of a police dispatcher". Just the type CPD needs. Fit in well with the Chicago Way motto. Groot would love her, same agenda.

"A scathing U.S. Department of Justice report concluded that the Spokane Police Department lacked leadership and transparency under Kirkpatrick. And many basic police reforms like having officers wear body cameras were only enacted after Kirkpatrick's departure. Kirkpatrick did face a troubled relationship with the officers' union in Spokane, which took a vote of "no confidence" in her leadership in 2010".

True enough about looks, Eddie was no model. And so many others grossly overweight and unattractive. Looks aren't the key. Is it too late for her to jump in as the right lesbian for the right time candidate? Me thinks Lori still likes the little skinny egghead girl from Aurora.

From someone who can't stand Kilpatrick:
If she was protecting police doing the right thing, cut her some slack.
If she was toeing the SJW party hack line, screw her. So Long.
I also see that the same commission fired ex Chicago IPRA investigator Anthony FINNELL ( well deserved, btw).
Looks like Oakland has an anti Chicago bias. Good for them.

Everyone talking about her looks should be ashamed. This is 2020 for gods sake. Grow up. Most of you have female family members you wouldn’t wanted treated like this. So many men on this job are slobs. That said when she was here she was fighting for the police against not only an old boys club but a black boys club and a bunch of incompetent useless women bosses who were threatened by her. They refused to work with her. She got fired in Oakland for not bowing to a civilian board who wants to have the power to fire police officers. We need her and more like her here so we have someone on our side. We could do much worse than her.
