Creeping Totalitarianism
Some major league push back in other states:
- When a Christian church in Louisville, Kentucky, was told they were not allowed to attend Easter Sunday church service in their vehicles, the group sued the liberal mayor giving the order, and the city. A federal judge ruled Saturday that the church was right about their religious liberties being violated, permitted the establishment to hold drive-up service, and offered a firm rebuke of the mayor for attempting to “criminalize” the “celebration of Easter.”
- In an incident caught on video, a former Colorado State Patrol trooper said he was handcuffed in front of his 6-year old daughter on a near-empty softball field Sunday by Brighton police officers enforcing social distancing rules. The department apologized Tuesday afternoon, calling the incident an "overreach by our police officers."
The only ones violating the "social distancing" in that case were the police confronting the father/daughter (who live in the same house) playing by themselves. Here's to hoping the former cop gets a nice settlement.
Compare this to what happened on the west side last week with "checkpoints" being put in place attempting to restrict public access to public streets. We've gotten more than a few e-mails about what went down during the week and we're looking into it. Seems Groot held a press conference Thursday or Friday and disavowed all knowledge of what 011 and 015 were doing in regard to dispersing groups of people, which isn't reflected in the arrest queues.
Don't get caught up in some boss's shady shit Officers.

The Training Academy and Narcotics are manning the checkpoints in 011. They have been for the last two weeks. I haven't seen them stop any foot traffic, but they are blocking the street with unmarked Squad cars. There is a rumor floating around that at least 1 Sergeant was disciplined for not blocking the street. I know for a fact that the massively over promoted 1100 has complained about his streets not being blocked. I've heard him on the air more than once calling for a Narcotics Sgt to come meet him about street closures. I know more but I don't want to give myself away. Yes I work in 011, I wish I didn't!!!! The current 1100 is the worst boss I've had in a long time!!!!
I don't know what's wrong with some guys. Did they ever hear of the Constitution? Did they ever hear about how the Nazis used the old adage of "I was just following orders" when they committed their acts against humanity and how badly that worked out for them? Where are their brains? And why would you walk into a crowd of potential carriers of the Chinese Flu and try to disperse them? Stop and think guys. Don't let these politicians tell you to violate the oath that we all took. They don't get to just make up a law as they see fit without sending it through the Legislative process. No boss, no politician can do that. Use your head for something other than a hat rack.
So every flu season from now on we have these restrictions on our freedoms to look forward to?
Never let a crisis go to waste, even if it is a fake crisis.
These tactical hand jobs cannot help themselves.
Anything to keep an assignment.
While the city may try to make event numbers disappear, any enterprising media source, or subject who’s feeling wronged and litigious can FOIA the OEMC transmissions from Zone10 for the time period in question.
I would venture a guess that nonstop “COVID Dispersals” on the zone by 011 tact and the 6730 team would likely raise a few eyebrows and precipitate some questions.
Not to mention any subsequent arrests that may (or did) follow.
Keep working boys and girls, your mayor appreciates It.
Then in the UK, the Central Bedfordshire police force, which serves a rural area of eastern England, took to Twitter to announce that they would be on the prowl for unruly locals trying to enjoy the nice weather outside.
“If you think that by going for a picnic in a rural location no one will find you, don’t be surprised if an officer appears from the shadows! We are covering the whole county,” they wrote, including a photograph illustrating the discreet nature of their personnel".
Wow they must have a lot to do. In the cities there are a whole list of crimes they won't even respond to because they don't have enough officers and yet these coppers have time for this? Lack of coppers is a problem in the rural forces And what kind of coppers write such tweets anyway? Cameras everywhere now, you'd think you were in China. Now remind me who won WW2. But the UK has been slowly dying for decades, it's a pity what it has become.
Common sense is a thing of the past.
He got an apology. They do not give out settlements in other areas for silly things that is a Chicago Values thing.
Creeping?
They have won.
They have America, Trump is quite tamed.
Now we see what they have taken, besides America itself the elites are
executing their usual Heist film script so far for about $10T and counting.
Now can they hold it? Yes, until the welfare checks by whatever name runs out.
This is Venezuela 15 years ago.
Hallmark cards for the top 10-15%, Hunger games below, no middle class.
I never had much of an opinion on abortion until now - sign me up for some settlement money!
https://www.detroitnews.com/story/news/politics/2020/04/03/lawsuit-stay-home-order-violated-speech-rights-anti-abortion-protester/2943276001/
"An Ann Arbor-based conservative law center is suing Gov. Gretchen Whitmer and the city of Detroit for allegedly violating the constitutional rights of an individual ticketed under Michigan's stay-at-home order while preaching and holding a sign outside an abortion clinic in Detroit."
I never understood the whole dispersing thing in the first place. Some merit person thinks it’s illegal for homie to stand on a corner in “hotspot”. How has there not been a million lawsuits over this? Maybe there has and we just don’t know about it. In 015 you have cops dispersing groups of 2-4. If they want to stand outside and get blasted let them, who cares.
Don't get caught up in some boss's shady shit Officers.
Should be the new mantra posted in all police districts and areas...
Did you see the video about the Philly cops dragging a guy off a bus because he wasn't wearing a face mask? Couldn't they just have given him one, if it was "policy" to wear a mask while riding public transportation.
?
Everyday this "pandemic" continues its looking more and more like one big social experiment. Don't get caught up in our leaders' mad power-trip. "I was just following orders" is not a legal excuse to violate the Bill of Rights.
This is what I worry about with some police. Are you that much of a sheep? What side will you be on if future President AOC told you to go start grabbing guns? You're an American before a cop, wise the fuck up. Stop being infected by these commies.
Had to be a part time or auxiliary officer? Maybe a tactical officer trying to generate numbers for his sergeant? Either way, a loser!
OT:
Rest in Peace Detective TT, God be with your family...
Silly coppers. ID’s are for criminals. No indemnification.
Terrifying.
Rumor mill - a few smaller town coppers here (south IL) might be stopping folks to ask purpose of travel as it's "directed by their command" .... Uhhh what? Do I have to show you my papers akin to WW2 Europe too? This is pure rumor though.
To be fair, I don't blame them if they truly don't know better or are afraid of an order from above... but man... get out of here with that B/S. I'll be polite but this for now
Any POs making proacive stops or enforci g theseorders are out of their minds. First of all, it isn't real police work and if you think it is, you were never the real police. Secondly, the ghastly one and her new stooge will throw you under the bus the moment something goes sideways.
People have been calling on churches in 011 since this whole lockdown began. Fuck you. I'm not walking into any church and breaking up a service. It'll be a code. Breaking up peaceable crowds on the street is already a violation of the first amendment, I'll be damned (probably would be!) If I went into a house of worship & FURTHER violated the 1st amendment by restricting religious freedoms. Based on OUR orders, multiple warnings need to be given an anov option all before an arrest. If I was that man, I'd be suing the FUCK out of that city and be asking for HUGE punitive against those officers. If you're that stupid that you blindly follow orders (we have PLENTY of those on CPD) then you should pay big time. Maybe financial ruin will fix their stupidity.
Just incompetent merit “leaders” who really believe they know
the rules and regulations and the laws are pulling this nonsense.
If mini mayor wants compliance from her people in the community,
then maybe SHE needs to request/declare marshal law under FEDERAL Rules.
Until then, it behooves our officers to NOT FOLLOW any rule or order they
KNOW to be UNCONSTITUTIONAL......call for a Deputy, let HIM issue orders to
violate people’s rights....and get it on tape!
Lots of officers still out there doing shit like this. “The boss told me to do it!” With no fucking clue of the legalities. Embarrassing.
That’s what these fools are rushing toward... a nanny United States of America. Big government. Let’s have pritzker and lightfoot make all your life decisions. They know what’s best. The job of all government is to create an environment for all to improve, and do so easier. These people are power mad ,control freaks. Funny, the most out of control people are all crying for all the help. A living, breathing two legged contradiction.
The situation in 015 and 011 sounds like an OIG investigation into wrong doing that should be conducted by IG Ferguson. Oh, Oh, wait, the OIG can't do that because he's still investigating the firing of Special Ed (and his Johnson). Remember how embarrassing that was to the Imp Mayor and it was given high propriety by her. We didn't forget and we won't forget. Ferguson, where's the OIG Report bitch?
Someone wake up Pillows West and her Constitutional Policing unit. Sounds like this is right up her alley. More bullshit from Beck. He actually said that CPD would conduct check points. The Imp was on stage when he said it. More lies. Lap dog media cowers in the corner sitting in its own piss. All making us Chicago Proud.
The story about the retired officer and his daughter disturbed me. I am always amazed that some officer can always be found to instigate such an arrest. People have the right to move "freely and abroad" read the constitution if you haven't already. I support the retired officer if he chooses to file a lawsuit. The arresting officer chose not to use any common sense, and should be burned. The retired officers daughters memory will always have the image of her father being handcuffed in front of her.
When I worked, I called these type of officers "robots" They operated on programming only, and made no provision for common sense. The most important tool in an officers tool box IMHO.
I was working with a young officer on a nice summer day on the west side and was in the passenger seat when he saw a young boy running with a pack of cigarettes in his hand. He curbed the vehicle, got out and in seconds had the boy in handcuffs. The neighbors started to come out and question what was going on. Finally, the boys parents came out and informed the police (Us) that they had told him to go out to the family car, and get their cigarettes. I told my partner to take the handcuffs off immediately, got in the car and chewed him a new asshole for being such an idiot. I refused to ever work with that officer again, but heard that he never learned anything from that incident and continued to be troublesome in his decision making.
Be care full when you are working with a new officer who doesn't have a regular partner yet, and when you are right, know it and do the right thing.
guy fieri of diners drivethrus and dives tv show donates a million dollars to feed first responders in cailfornia
guy you are a great gut.
Despots Mao ZeDingDong LightLoafers and Chairman JB JiangBao Pigfluenza don’t seem to mind violating the Constitution, in fact its their exercise in socialism. They’re testing the waters here, NY, MI, CA, WA, etc. if enough people continue to put up with these unlawful lockdowns then the transition to socialism will be easier.
Crime and disorder is being ignored. Let’s see if by November if the voters remember how Lari endorses KmmmFxxxx 2020 as a referenda on her bad decisions to shut down the lakefront bike path, going for a latte and in most cases, going to work.
You Must Comply.
The consent decree mandates that the academy lower standards to the point of just showing up most days of the week is enough to pass.
That in turn recruits will gladly take to indoctrination to become enforcers to crackdown on freedoms.
Chanting to the masses, Lari says You Must Comply.
When the hoax pandemic fizzles and it will soon, the CPS curriculum will be tweaked to include the foundations of The Fundamental Change America. It’s one reason that the Red4Ed teachers still getting paid for staying home...to prepare a new curriculum.
Lari and JB aren’t worried about any political suicide over the lockdown. Both haven’t worked this hard in their lives with daily albeit very, very short invitation only press conferences that they both can’t wait to hand over the socialism torch to some other more youthful radical.
Stay Fetal
I recall when the Mayor of New Orleans suspended the 2nd Amendment and confiscated firearms. The NRA took them to court and won. There cities and towns in this country now that have written " emergency orders" not yet implemented that have banned public carrying of firearms and have closed gun stores and have banned alcohol sales. You cannot trust government to do the right thing in all circumstances. There is no state of martial law and police officers should give a verbal warning or at the most, write a citation.No physical force and no arrests. If I was still active I would let a verbal warning, using the PA system,suffice. If things go south no one will stand behind you, not the mayor, not COPA, not the police board and not a jury. Be smart. Times have changed and so has your leadership.
Use your head. They sure are by disavowing all knowledge of PR disasters
This isn't going to stop. Anyone who believes that these "leaders" will relinquish their new-found power, also would believe that the same elected officials would also willingly impose term limits for themselves. They WILL use LE and every tool at their disposal to maintain power and control for themselves. Let there be no mistake, they will wield force by proxy of LE and unconstitutionally if necessary. We're not there yet, but a logical and rational person can only square this ending in one of two ways: An eventual civil war caused by an economic depression and total departure from the constitution, or an Article 5 Convention of States.
Said it right from the beginning. These liberal Democrats and CLOSET COMMUNISTS have in essence incremently imposed Martial Law imprisoning citizens and destroying our economy for personal and political gain.It is long past time for the good citizens to revolt nationwide.
I was just talking about this with the wife the other day. If me and her wanted to go do something outside for some exercise not social distancing, how can you approach me with the threats of fine or arrest? We sleep in the same bed, live in the same house, but now when I step outside I have to stay 8ft away or be fined or arrested? Fuck you. There’s some coppers around the country taking their enforcement of this way too seriously. I’ve been happy to see us in CPD reluctantly and unenthusiastically enforcing it when we are ordered to by a commander. Otherwise mostly everyone is finding a hole. Then you have some dildos like this in Colorado jumping out on a dad and a young daughter in a park like they would a guy with a gun. Because they enforce every single law on the books with vigor and without prejudice. Hey you fucks, if you see a daddy daughter playing in a park, how about you use discretion and leave that one be. If you see dude inc on the dope spot for hours on end, that’s the one you get out on if you decide these borderline unconstitutional orders need to be enforced. You fucking idiots. Sue the city, the department and hell sue those goofy cops personally too just to teach them a lesson. I hope the retired copper gets a nice hefty settlement out of this, take his daughter to Disney land with some of the money.
That trooper was acting like a jag off. Park is closed and he wouldn’t leave. Officers asked for ID to cite and he wouldn’t give ID. What did you want officers to do?
Any fool of a cop who thinks that a shit head lawyer scumbag politician can force you to lock a mother fucker up for failing to stay 6 feet away from another mother should turn in his shit and go be a crossing guard. Fuck. Don’t you fools thing for your self? Shit.
This crackdown on Constitutional rights being implemented by the politicians could get very messy...
The Colorado fiction- could it get any more coded. Lol.
We had it (and to be truthful, long before this) back when
Chrysler tried to convince working class Americans they
needed (or could afford) rich Corinthian leather in their
passenger cars to get from Point A to Point B. Back then
it was called capitalism. In any event it was a plan to
separate you from your money.
When are the people and folks going to start doing what is required?
What ever happened to good ol' water cannons and tear gas? Safe social distancing at it's finest, just add a little detergent to the water and call it neighborhood cleansing!
Make no mistake, Groot will use this pandemic as an excuse for everything going forward, including crying poor for a new police contract. Bankruptcy coming...
Good on them for standing up for themselves. Much of the stuff these mayors and governors are doing is flagrantly unconstitutional, and if the American public decides that liberty only exists when the government finds it convenient to do so, that'll be the end of this country and probably that of Western prosperity in general. This sort of thing is exactly how Rome went from a prosperous, generally equitable republic to a dysfunctional, decaying empire. The Romans tuned out, they got complacent, next thing you know they're buying the throne and slaughtering everyone who didn't kiss the new guy's ass.
Those checkpoints for only for the commander as we all know he want to security for the buildings he owns, the elite with the white shirt with the gold badges the bullshitters the liars the people we have absolutely no respect for keep on breaking the law but it’s OK because the mayor is afraid she is very scared to do anything except for close off the lakefront yeah that’s great another failure another Democrat what else is new! Watching today the mayor has her own news conference is going OK watched about five minutes of it that was enough sickening and pathetic Free Press as they Like baby dolphins applauding themselves how great they are they are pathetic bunch of sickening do nothing Democrats.
It's a case of CYA (Cover Your Asses) by the head honchos in Chicago.
I appreciate the risk all of our first responders and LEO are exposing themselves to in order to execute this misguided endeavor of our politicians to control as much of our lives as possible. I was in a suburb yesterday exercising in a public,open field, with nobody within 20 feet of me when a police officer told me to leave because "then everyone will want to here." I realize he was just doing his job, but really? We can't be in an open field by ourselves? Our politicians I fear will try to ban people from being on sidewalks and streets shortly because "...everyone will want to be here."
I can imagine the department happily sawing off the branch that over-zealous officers are hanging from. "How did that man get our uniform?" is nothing new. When the shysters come looking I can't imagine Groot standing behind 'her' police department.
Head on a swivel out there.
This virus was a “crisis opportunity” for the democrat-communist party and their accomplices in the media and the swamp to fundamentally change America as founded, just like Hussein Obama promised and utterly failed to do. They used coordinated hysteria to totally destroy a 22-trillion dollar economy and the lives of 10’s of millions of Deplorables while suspending basic civil liberties that are NOT at the whim of some corrupt government authority. Trump took the hysteria bait and now he’s screwed with no way out. He gets smeared no matter what he does.
Fauci’s been busted already smearing Trump for not acting fast enough while at the same time in late February telling the media to “not worry about this”. Trump was smart enough to shut-down travel from China in late January and from Europe shortly after that. Thousands of lives were saved with this alone. No one in the media will even cover this honestly, not even Fox News.
Once the dust settles and a few real investigative journalists dig-in, people will see clearly how totally out of all proportion this was and how misleading the data was. Talk about cutting off your arm in spite of a hang-nail. The virus is real and can be bad for a small, select group, but it’ll be no more deadly than the yearly flu or the swine flu in 2009 or many other flu viruses.
As far as the communist left is concerned, mission accomplished. They proved this can work and will wait for the next “crisis” and better control of national government to run it again. You’ll wish you moved to that farm in Indiana when the stars align the next time. Getting to church on Sunday or playing ball with your kid will be the least of your worries.
Numbers numbers numbers! 011 still running all types of missions: seat belt missions, dispersal missions, etc.
Freedom to practice religion, freedom to peacefully assemble, freedom from warrantless searches, freedom to not incriminate yourself, freedom of movement from state to state, there are many more facets of The Constitution being violated on a daily basis.
In few months, many officers here and around the country will be facing Civil Rights lawsuits. Remember, punitive damages come out of your own pocket
And the 1161 team was out playing the dope game today. Thanks for helping spread the virus. I guess your numbers are more important than your family and fellow officers.
The scary thing is that coppers here may not believe the Colorado coppers did anything wrong
There it is, right in the first line.
Short title for next Tom Hanks movie.
Fresh off of Mister Rogers.
It's going to be a byline, but we're going to ask how this
or that effects Tom Hanks and Mark Cuban.
Wait! That's a blockbuster! Tom Hanks AND Mark Cuban!
Tom Hanks: I'll cover the payroll for the team.
Mark Cuban: No you won't. It's MY team!
Tom Hanks: But it's MY turn!

The two biggest offenders of our ( and I mean working class people of all colors) freedoms are lying toad faced racist Lori and fat ass criminal toilet boy. They both have to go. With ahole Rahm pushing machine hack pos Duckworth for VP, Lori thinks she is going to be senator and then president I guess. These people must be stopped.
Sworn Testimony:
My boss confided that he built a real estate empire using
Federal funds. He also said "I'll be fucked If I let them take
this away from me. I worked too hard to get it."
So he proceeded to order me and other officers to man
"checkpoints" in and out of his properties based on presumed
drug activity or other illegal activities supposedly under
surveillance. We checked ID's, recorded ID's, ran ID's,
whatever it took to gain information and intimidate the
general public.
A dry run for despots
Remember the "important" thing! Is the Commander's three flat safe?
I’m amazed at the lack of brains on our job from time to time...wait a minute, did I just say that? Actually, I’m not. It took me only a few weeks in the academy to realize my classmates did not have my back and that out of the box thinking was not a desired quality on this job. Those in power want followers on the police department, brainless followers. They’ll just as easily promote you meritoriously as send you to jail & take your house for following. Just look who leads by example. When’s the last time you heard a superintendent differ in opinion from the mayor? When’s the last time you heard a superintendent call out the community or cite actual law on the books? Our exempts are almost always multi merits before having achieved exempt rank for a reason. They follow not lead. Merit promotion was intentionally created to destroy any esprit de corps within the police department. This is why us having a Union is almost a futile effort. Merit needs to be put on the bargaining table, either reduced or abolished.
Some of these rules by politicians are idiotic and send mixed messages. So the lakefront trail is closed, but you have a governor who tells people it’s ok to go out for a walk. You know what I’ve noticed, congested sidewalks in neighborhoods along the lakefront because where the Hell else they going to walk or run? The damn sidewalks which are far more limited in space. Just stupid.
Since the AIDS epidemic started in the 1980's 32 million people have died from it, and there were 75 million that had become infected with the AIDS virus, today 37 million are living with the AIDS virus.
Why wasn't the country shut down for the AIDS plague, like it has for the Wuhan virus? Bath houses weren't closed, gay men weren't advised to adhere to social distancing. This doesn't make sense. Why this now, hmmmm?
The park is closed by order of the politicians, you have to leave the park.
I do not want to leave, it is a nice day for being outside.
We are required to enforce social distentsing orders.
I don't care I'm not leaving.
Let me see your ID so a violation can be written.
I refuse, you can't ID me unless I commit a crime.
You are in violation of an order imposed by the politicians.
I don't care I am not going to ID and I am not going to leave.
You are now under arrest and being taken into custody.
Don't touch me (said in a loud high pitched girly voice)
The cuffs are to tight you are hurting me (also spoken in a loud high pitched girly voice)
News Media Reporting:
Cops are violating everyone's rights
Cops are traumatizing the children who witnessed the incident
Politicians are calling for discipline and dismissal of the officers involved
Police brass are investigating, but also offering an apology for the officers actions (In their mind investigation already over)
Solution:
Politicians, get to work, pass Constitutional legislation for the police to implement the law not policy
If a violation is sited with a ticket, pass legislation stating the offender has to ID
When no solution is forthcoming: (as usual)
Officer use your common sense, based on your training and knowledge of the law
Learn the law, do some research, ask some questions, don't take a law lesson from another uninformed dufus
If the politicians want the CPD to have and enforce such powers pass the legislation
Months after the problems have subsided the people, the brass, and the politicians will blame the police
Also there is a real problem occuring. At this time we in Chicago have around six or seven hundred known corona deaths
They are having the same amounts daily in NEW YORK, the problem is real, please be as safe as you can possibly be
the problems you are facing are insurmountable and you can only depend on each other. No one cares about the police
read the hate everyday on You Tube
What does it take to be CEO of Slack?
Well, you don't wear a suit or a tie and you don't shave.
See the photo.
Same thing for Charlie Beck.
And it begins.At this afternoons Pandemic Press Conference for the City,Mayor Lightfoot let slip that the Governor will be extending the Stay at Home Order.Come on Mayor,give the citizens of Chicago the bad news already.October 01st will be the next target date to go from Martial Law to Social Distancing.More than half of the Mayors conference was about providing for the homeless.This is like a bad Twilight Zone episode.Illegal Immigrants,Criminals,Welfare Recipients,and the Homeless are considered before the upstanding Citizens.The destruction and decimation of good hardworking Citizens rolls on.Hopefully the push back is right around the corner.
Why isn’t this brought to the attention of the channel 2,5,or 9 investigative departments. Forget the FOP you can be retirement age before this is ever addressed.

Always 2 sides to every story, if true, then fuck him.
Do not do anything. Then again, in a few months we won't have a pension or a check. Then we can stay home, play constitutional lawyers while applying on-line to work at Walmart.
I'm glad I am just like my peers I know everything about nothing.

Don’t be such a rule follower, also, learn how to take in the entire situation and think 2 steps ahead of what will happen after the arrest. You will save yourself a whole lotta grief in in your career
Right now the American public is giving the government and the police some leeway with our civil rights. However, the longer people are putting up with this disruption in their lives, the longer legitimate people are not working and struggling to pay bills, the greater the chance the American people will turn against the government. And who of the government is most accessible to the populace? The police.
It pains me to see Officers doing the bidding of rabid liberals. It doesn't matter where you are and what community you serve, law enforcement is still the mortal enemy of liberal democrats. You will be the first one sacrificed when shit hits the fan. Let these fear mongering pieces of shit live with what they are trying to create. I haven't done one thing on duty related to enforcing COVID-19 related rules and I will continue not to. Let them do it themselves.

He was hardly acting like a jag off. What else could the officers do. How about turn and walk away after explaining social distancing. It is called DISCRETION. Have you ever heard of it?
Devil's advocate--I am in no way defending any overzealous "social distancing" gestapo tactics--but doesn't the Colorado incident seem a little opportunistic on the part of the ex-CSP guy? All I have seen is the media and his video statement, no body cam or footage of the whole incident.
My understanding is the park was supposed to be closed to everyone, and this guy just didn't agree with that. I can't help but think this started as a couple of coppers letting them know the park was closed and he dug in his heels to argue the point. Guy is a 33 year old ex-cop and he can't understand the other officers viewpoint and the unique situation everyone is dealing with?
I have 20+ years on (not CPD, but Chicago area ISP), and I know of a couple of guys in my time that just decided this job wasn't for them and left to do something else. But most of the ones I know of who left mid career did so involuntarily due to some discipline issues. Then he posts another video with his tiny daughter on his lap talking about how traumatized she is? I can't help but think there would be an interesting story or two from his time with the CSP.
Again, not justifying any of us becoming nazis, it's just this particular situation stinks of a disgruntled ex-CSP guy looking for a lawsuit payout or trying to start his own chapter of "copblock".
Just my two cents. Gonna go sit in a median somewhere now.
You're an American before a cop, wise the fuck up. Stop being infected by these commies.
That is one of the best statements I have heard in a long time

Snowden has said much the same thing with relations to their new high tech snooping and that these tools will not simply go away and never be used again as promised. Smart Cities, more loss of privacy and control freaks in-charge.
Tyrants always get it in the end.
The Color of Law. You do not have to follow an unlawful order. If you do, you will be held accountable. It's a federal crime.
Do not listen to these idiot supervisors. Just say no.
Election Judges and polling place watchers "Dumb-mo-crats" continue to work the Chicago Polling places-end of watch by catching that Corvid-19.....Stay Safe and Stay Away from anyone not within your very own household.....
OT. They’re promoting the new Sgt and Lt tomorrow. Congrats. Lts you’ll be ok you’ve already been supervisors. Sgts good luck. The city is throwing you to the wolves. Wait til that first call you make on the street or report you messed up on without any training. The ghetto lawyers are going to eat you up. Be careful. The city just screwed you.
Do you have N95 mask or even rubber gloves from the City that care so much about us as the Police? No, don’t risk your health and family health when we’re not afforded the basic essentials. Love seeing all the bosses with the fancy face covers though.
Social Distancing does not apply to those who reside under the same roof
.... meanwhile here in chicago, karen scolds us daily.
That trooper was acting like a jag off. Park is closed and he wouldn’t leave. Officers asked for ID to cite and he wouldn’t give ID. What did you want officers to do
The Trooper doesn’t have to show id unless a lawful ordinance violation or state law violation takes place on the Publicway. Unless the responding officers are conducting a field investigation on a father daughter criminal enterprise taking place.
Those officers should have used their heads. Call a supervisor to the scene and let her/him “step on their dick.” Or better yet, call a representative from their mayors office to respond to the scene and let that political hack “step on their dick.”
This crackdown on Constitutional rights being implemented by the politicians could get very messy...

Just look at the Covid county map of Illinois. Outside of Chicago/Cook/and the collar counties the rest of the entire state should be completely open. Blanketly punish everyone it's easier.

I never understood the whole dispersing thing in the first place. Some merit person thinks it’s illegal for homie to stand on a corner in “hotspot”. How has there not been a million lawsuits over this? Maybe there has and we just don’t know about it. In 015 you have cops dispersing groups of 2-4. If they want to stand outside and get blasted let them, who cares.

Attorney: Officer you stated you arrested my client in the 011th District for gang/narcotic loitering, after he did not disperse from a designated hot spot.
Officer: Yes that is correct
Attorney: Officer how many hot spots are in the 011th District?
Officer: Well, basically, the entire 011th District is a hot spot.
Attorney: Does my client live in the 011th District?
Officer: Yes

EXCLUSIVE: 'Greatest fear': Chicago hides names of released prisoners from police
https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2020/apr/12/chicago-hides-names-cook-county-prisoners-released/
Washington times guess chiraqs Democrat owned media cannot report! Fake news Chicago media show’s again the disdain for law abiding people,
The MORAL Courage ( what the Germans call zivilcourage, literally “ civil courage”) must be equal to the PHYSICAL Courage. The physical bravery of CPD is NOT in question; the “ mental bravery” the mental toughness to say NO and refuse to carry out blatantly Unconstitutional acts must also be beyond doubt. The Groot and JB have totalitarian proclivities, but they are transitory, while the US Constitution is permanent.
In regards to the Brighton, Colorado incident involving the father daughter softball issue. The person that said fuck you to the father should learn the facts. The park wasn't closed. The police were there to enforce social distancing. The officers, in front of the 6 year old girl, told the dad that they didn't care if his daughter was there. The Storm Troopers wanted ID because they've let the power go to their head. The father told the officers that he wasn't giving his ID because they're playing softball and not causing a problem. They reside across from the park. Use common sense people! To the jagoff that said fuck you to the father...well fuck you Storm Trooper...I was only following orders. The Brighton PD apologized to the father. Common Sense and critical thinking is becoming a thing of the past. God help us all.
there seems to be no shortage of Police Officers
willing to step on their pee-pee hard enough to
make it squeak when it comes to The Constitution.
M/Fers sat in the hard and uncomfortable witness
chair at Nuremberg and tried to hide behind:
"I was just following orders."
Don't put your neck in a noose for these hate-filled,
seditious, traitorous, liberal democrat/progressive mayors
seeking to enforce martial law in order to fuck up the
Presidential Election in November.

But we do understand the concept of

Heh...
You so called decent, upright and law abiding
citizens of Chicago aren't mean and mad enough
to fight City Hall and the media to snatch back
your rights and your authority.
You won't even fight back against City Hall's
"Free Shit Army" vanguard, Dude Inc.
But hoo-wee... You go in on The Police
on a whim and a pretext.
The story about the retired officer and his daughter disturbed me. I am always amazed that some officer can always be found to instigate such an arrest. People have the right to move "freely and abroad" read the constitution if you haven't already. I support the retired officer if he chooses to file a lawsuit. The arresting officer chose not to use any common sense, and should be burned. The retired officers daughters memory will always have the image of her father being handcuffed in front of her.
When I worked, I called these type of officers "robots" They operated on programming only, and made no provision for common sense. The most important tool in an officers tool box IMHO.
I was working with a young officer on a nice summer day on the west side and was in the passenger seat when he saw a young boy running with a pack of cigarettes in his hand. He curbed the vehicle, got out and in seconds had the boy in handcuffs. The neighbors started to come out and question what was going on. Finally, the boys parents came out and informed the police (Us) that they had told him to go out to the family car, and get their cigarettes. I told my partner to take the handcuffs off immediately, got in the car and chewed him a new asshole for being such an idiot. I refused to ever work with that officer again, but heard that he never learned anything from that incident and continued to be troublesome in his decision making.
Be care full when you are working with a new officer who doesn't have a regular partner yet, and when you are right, know it and do the right thing.
That was me, I’m now in headquarters writing our policies and general orders!
He was hardly acting like a jag off. What else could the officers do. How about turn and walk away after explaining social distancing. It is called DISCRETION. Have you ever heard of it?
4/13/2020 07:44:00 PM
How the fuck is it discretion if he's not leaving the park you goof. You see a drunk walking with a beer and tell him to pour it out or throw it away and he does so you don't write. Thats discretion. If the drunk refuses you don't just walk away you take further action whether to ticket or arrest if he does not provide proper identification to write ticket. Once again falls on subject to comply with the simple order of pour out beer or in the troopers case leave park because it is closed.

If true - parks closed. END OF STORY.
Close the churches and gun shops but leave the liquor stores and weed shops open. Democrat priorities! If a home invader kicks at your door at 2 a m, hide in your closet and dial 911. Maybe you can smoke a blunt, before the guy gets in or the police arrive!

Chicago's very own quivering news media. No tough questions, no follow up questions and no interest in city and state overreach with empty hospital beds, empty McCormack Place. Just sitting in the corner in a puddle of their own piss fearful of not getting access to the Imp and her lap dog Department Heads. Fake news leads generated by hollow reporters.

The liberal left progressive agenda
is to drive COPS away from Policing.
COPS are too rough, too tough, too assertive,
too manly, too quick with their fists/clubs/pistols
to suit the tastes of people who haven't had a fight
in their entire adult life (but strangely, get to judge
with perfect 20/20 hindsight what COPS had a mere split
second to react to) and not collaborative minded enough
in the face of shit hitting the fan and too quick to use
force in mitigating shit having hit the fan?
