Groot's Snitch Line (UPDATE)
Remember when CPD was going to implement "snitich boxes" so concerned citizens could submit anonymous tips about crimes and murders via a paper note into a mailbox like device? We believe it was during McCompStat's tenure and the Department went so far as to buy some reinforced mailboxes, but never actually deployed them. We had a bet at the time that at least one would be stuffed full of excrement and another with lighter fluid and burned. We have since joked that they may have been repurposed as Weed Amnesty Boxes at the airports.
Groot has proposed modernizing the East German Ministerium für Staatsicherheit practice of recruiting something like 10% of the compliant busybodies to become informants for the new police state:
Groot has proposed modernizing the East German Ministerium für Staatsicherheit practice of recruiting something like 10% of the compliant busybodies to become informants for the new police state:
- Tips submitted through this service are encrypted, confidential and are immediately available to the public safety organization. In certain cases, depending on the organization, you may be eligible for a cash reward. After submitting your tip, you will be provided with a unique tip code that you can use to see updates on your tip and chat in real-time.
- Mayor de Blasio’s social distancing snitching program is sending cops out on thousands of dead-end calls.
Most of the 17,745 reports made to the city’s 311 complaint repository as of April 24 about people within six feet of each other were fruitless pursuits for the NYPD, according to department data.
The alleged offenders were usually gone, and police found no evidence of social distancing violations or opted not to take action on 9,378 of the calls, or 53 percent of the time.
Sounds like a great use of police resources as the summer killing season is upon us. Luckily, pranksters shut down the system in short order:
- Mayor Bill de Blasio was forced to temporarily close his coronavirus 'snitch hotline' over the weekend as the service was inundated with prank calls, pictures of genitalia and memes likening de Blasio to Adolf Hitler.
De Blasio unveiled the controversial scheme on Saturday, urging New Yorkers to text 311 to report anyone violating the state's social distancing rules or stay-at-home orders. However, the response didn't quite go to plan as aggrieved members of the public vehemently criticized the 'tyrannical overreach' the hotline posed and within hours it was flooded messages of contempt for de Blasio instead.
Such messages included photos of extended middle fingers and links to articles about de Blasio breaking his own social distancing instructions when he was seen going into a gym in mid-March, after the coronavirus outbreak had already started ravaging the city.
It sure would be a shame if Groot's efforts at a Police State were similarly thwarted.
UPDATE: Snitches revealed in the Show-Me State:
UPDATE: Snitches revealed in the Show-Me State:
- Hundreds of people have been exposed for reporting people who have flouted social distancing rules and some are now scared they could receive a backlash.
The names and addresses of approximately 900 people in Missouri were released as part of a media request under the Sunshine Law, which allows for the release of information submitted to a public agency (except for wrongdoing and abuse tips).
St. Louis County had urged the community to share details of anyone not following guidelines in response to the coronavirus pandemic and noted in the terms and conditions that information may be shared publicly.
However some people may not have read the small print submitted tips via an online form and email from the end of March.

More stupidity Groot
Groot try making CPD friendly to recruit top quality recruits instead of use the mathematics of recruitment of people with criminal records which resulted in an “honest” citizen getting blasted on the train— lol I have to use “honest” because the mans arrest was tossed- lol
If this new system is anything like Missouri’s the fine print in the secret squirrel program allows for the identity of the secret squirrel snitch to be revealed, which has now placed the snitches in Missouri in harms way. Needless to say the snitches of the secret squirrel program ain’t happy being thrown under the bus. I bet the same will happen here.
I can see this snitch tip line evolving from reporting folks who are not social distancing to reporting people who are a danger to the State (the Democrat Party). Did you see someone displaying an American flag on their person or property, they could be one of those American right wing radicals. Or who is wearing clothing or displaying signs that support that bad orange man Trump. Keep an eye on that Trump Tower as those who are coming or going are radical supporters. Listen to your neighbors, your friends, your family, what are they saying? Take no chances report them all to the State. Big brother demands this!! You will be rewarded.
Well I hope that with all the shootings going on, none of the victims violates the social distancing! The MayorASS will have the States ASStorney indict the shooting victims for any violations I’m sure!
Sound like they tried the same snitch line thing in Houston TX.
First Rule of Data,
Garbade In!
Garbage Out!
Missouri has a tip line and has fine print stating your private information and your tip will be shown if someone files a request to look at the tips. Someone did and posted all the tips and the names of the tipsters-who now fear retaliation. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8282475/Missourians-tipped-county-lockdown-rule-breakers-fear-retaliation-release.html
The liberals just don't understand that they hate anyone in power.
Make sure you report self important, overly officious city employees that violate the rules by getting their hair done.
So, will the first tip be about a diminutive washed up former prosecutor going out for a clandestine haircut when the barber shops are closed?
Yes!
I’m still waiting for the boxes to be installed at JJ Fish!
Once they completely destroy the police department, it will be rebuilt along Venezuelan or Zimbabwean lines.
The highest ranking officials will be communist agitators.
The beat coppers and their supervisors will be from the mobs.
Zeig Heil Mayor.
only in the blue Staes. why?
If they won't snitch when one of their own gets gunned down what in the hell thinks you think they are going to snitch on a neighbors party. Are you really that stupid, yeah I guess you are. Worked well for the NYC dumb assume Democratic Mayor, so we'll that he had to shut it down and not because they ran out of bribe money. LOL at Democratic desperation.
East Germany had half the population spying on the other half, which was not good for production. They existed due to the USSR paying for their headlines, as their factories were hopelessly out of date. So trade was pretty much out. Crime and corruption were rampant, though stats were suppressed. Once the USSR fell, the money train gave out and Stasi types either disappeared in the night, or were buried in unmarked graves. The social breakdown the Dems want, so they can be kings and queens of the shithole will not work out the way they want. Uncle Sugar can't bail out their mismanagement indefinitely and eventually heads will roll. This will not and well for them at all. But like a train heading for a broken trestle they just don't seem to be able to slow down. East Germany, and the Soviet system in general went broke. Had nothing to do with Star Wars or foreign armies. A Communist state is a slave state and is going to end up either overrun or so broken no other country can afford to rebuild it. The DDR was a source of cheap labor for the West, but ultimately is part of a greater mess now. If the Dems succeed in running the country into the ground, I imagine even Mexico won't be interested. At least we won't have illegals to worry about, as all the soyboys will get to learn fruit picking or starve. A Brave New Depression
I don’t see how these records aren’t FOIA-able. The claims that they are “encrypted” and “confidential” are bullshit. Maybe they are as they are being submitted, but it’s likely that the complaints have to be disclosed if someone makes a FOIA request for them.
NEVER has and NEVER will be any original thought in this City or Dept. The only thing Chicago leads in is Crime and shootings!
This will be fun. Just reported a "crime" at 121 N LaSalle St. I can tell this could be a fun time waster throughout the day. Have fun!
When will she ever learn?
In reference to the comment on St Louis County... St Louis County does not include the City of St. Louis. It is one of three Independent cities in the country which are not part of a county..

Bingo! Right on the money!
I can’t believe how many losers there are out there that call in these public safety concerns. I mean, really I can’t believe it. Imagine your life sucks so bad that u call the police because kids are playing in a park. Or your neighbors are gathered in a group of more than 10. Get a fucking life.
So, the liberal progressive democrats who love to call any conservative a " nazi" or a Fascist have , in this time of crisis, revealed who really is a fascist. Maybe the liberal democrats could turn all of the public schools into " Democratic Youth Groups", put all of the kids into the same uniform and teach them the value of the state and how to snitch on their friends and family members. The more people you turn in the better grades you get and advancement and rank in the party. And, a member of a youth group gets preference for government jobs, such as the police. Hey! Wait a minute. Is that not happening in Chicago right now?
The city would be better off with Homer Simpson as mayor, rather than the simpleton currently in office.
Aren't all the callers for social distancing complaints named Karen anyway?
Those who snitched for something like this should fear retaliation. They should be pariahs.
The dictators snitch line really carries no weight when law enforcement across America do not support it and will not follow it. What in the world are we becoming. That governor in Michigan is out of her mind and evil.

Thankfully it carries no weight because law enforcement across America will not violate the constitution and does not support it The communist leaders will have to personally go out and enforce it.
Der LightLoaführer Groot Yooth Schützstaffel?
It’s about jobs, armbands and documents.
Were the city meter maid parking aides laid off or will they get first dibs on this new job opportunity ?
You must comply.
Remembering the days when Old 015 would constantly crowd the airwaves chasing the kids for narcotics suspicion. Wonder if these kids today or anyone would simply run away from these schutzsaffel ticket hounds?
Hope all these taxpaying voters remember the Democrats in November.
Have drop boxes - need contents:
With 97% of air travel being down, those Airport Weed Boxes must have cobwebs on them, will they be repurposed?
Snitches get stitches.
Screw the fuckin Communist democrats .. these democrats will next take away guns from lawful citizens.. Had a big cookout in 08 Saturday..3 other parties were down the block... Fat ass billionaire Il Gov Prick, wants to bankrupt Illinois middle class

Already done!!
Nothing even makes sense anymore. Set all the true criminals free, and encourage snitching on people who are committing.....NON-crimes. And "we hate the cops", but they're the ones who are expected to enforce against the non-crimes, and somehow...what, by doing this, the real crime is just supposed to vanish? This is literally upside-down. I think this is why they call liberalism a mental disorder.
I saw somewhere that a known felon and traffic menace was spotted at 1060 W Addison, driving a decommissioned Mt. Prospect police car.
Snitches get stitches. Community 101.
Snitch boxes? Doesn't anyone remember Fahrenheit 451?
I’d like to report the Governor’s wife for no essential travel... can I do that?
As long as you're not a city employee, flood that snitch line with bs
The Soviets gave an award to a kid that turned in his father for hoarding vegetables to feed his family during one of the typical crop failures during Stalinist times. Pops was a farmer, but they were expected to turn over everything to the State like good cogs in a wheel. Unfortunately humans need more than oil to function, but no matter to the Party. Junior had been thoroughly indoctrinated by his 'teachers' to do the Right Thing and snitch out family, friends, pets or whomever was counterrevolutionary at the time. The KGB came through and took dad away, never to be seen again. But in the infinite wisdom of the State, the little creep was celebrated and not only given a medal, but a statue was cast and placed in the public square of his village, so that others would learn the lessons and values of being Good Citizens. After his day in the sun, his newfound benefactors gave speeches about his Good Deed and presented him with his medal, and dedicated his statue. Then the Party hacks and their KGB troops left this happy ville with its new hero.
The boy was strung up the next day, his medal still around his neck.
To all the enterprising reporters out there got a tip for you.There is a juicy scandal brewing at Joe Ferguson office concerning an employee and identity theft. Some FOIA requests about a recently fired employee would make a nice start. Say it aint so JOE
Old slick Inspector General Joe Ferguson has 2 separate Federal Investigations that he is the prime subject of.Lots of explaining to do on those Bank Accounts huh Joe?
I have submitted my official snitch on Captain Kane and his dynamic duo 1980V.I left the children on the Bicycles out of it.They just didn't know better.
Our illustrious mayor just made the big time.....
Tucker Carlson just devoted nearly 10 minutes to this out of control ControlFreak!
Scorched her bad.
Was pretty funny......she must be very very mad at her “peeps” for all the
disrespect they be showing her.....she sure can’t be claiming racist policies,
inadequate medical needs, poverty, etc when they be out partying in their fancy
clothes, fancy shoes and jackets, or out shooting the holy fuck out of the city!
Gotta love Dem liberals!
Ferguson, where is the Special Ed investigation? How long are you gonna drag the cover up out regarding Special Ed. Its been nearly six months.
Your college buddy, Groot, threw the ball in your court several weeks ago when a reporter upset the dwarf mayor by asking the question. She said you were investigating the matter. So were is the investigation? We are not forgetting you owe the public the results of your big investigation.
Common Fergi let's have the report.
321 N LaSalle 5th floor Toga party. Call it in.
The Fathead Ed dossier will hit the street as soon a Larri needs cover for something.
Goofy !
ATTN: Mayor Lightfoot
The CPD promotional "exams" are rigged.
Almost nobody in the ghetto will tattle, because snitches get stitches. 😔
There is a cheater LT who works in the 3rd district. She's on 3rd watch. She doesn't drive her Mercedes to work anymore. What will be done about this wise Groot?
Well it's not called the Show Me state for nothing.
Rickroll them sonsabitches.
"Hello, is this 1-800-Stasi? I need to report my neighbors, they're not social distancing. They sometimes try to crowd into my space too, but whenever I ask them nicely to back away they just say that they're...
NEVER GONNA GIVE YOU UP, ..."
