Interesting Experiment
We can't see Groot approving it seeing as how she thrives on the community distrusting the police, but then again, there are connected contracts to hand out to connected construction companies:
- As Chicago looks for new ways to fight a recent spike in crime, a South Side aldermen has suggested adding a so-called "cop house," or community-oriented policing home, on a block looking for stability.
Ald. Anthony Beale said he has secured grant funds and corporate sponsors, who would buy a home and repurpose it into a community center where Chicago police would be stationed.
"You have to be on the ground, building relationships, building trust with the people," Beale said. "So the people have a comfort level with the police department."
Rumors that this would be a sandbagged walls, topped with barbed wire, surrounded by an alligator filled moat and machine gun towers is (so far) unfounded.
But it sounds interesting in the moment. If the City Council progressives and their allies keep "othering" the police, Chicago is doomed.

We have something similar. They’re called police stations.
hmmm crazy thought... almost (nah couldn’t be) like (wait) a police station....? psshhh paaaa-tttthetic
Can we stock it with popcorn and couches?
If it were to have working toilets, it would be better than fat asses mansion and some of the precincts.
We'd be like the fireman, "work or have house chores" till 4 then "freetime" to do whatever with loads of discretion to refuse to "roll/respond" to jobs and dont have to let any not poleece (hahaha) in? But most importantly somebody gotz to be da cook :)) I'm tempted to say I'm in
Didn’t Eddie Johnson have a bunch of these throughout the city? I believe he referred to them as “stabbin cabins.”
Wow this is a plot from SWAT. Two cops by a house in a crap neighborhood,engelwwod, to get the community on board. Screen writes stole this plot. Wow, I watch a lot of medical shows. Does that mean I'm a doctor.
Alderman are supposed to live in their wards. Let them use their house and welcome the community in.
Meh.... give me 600k to rehab a home and I will pocket 500k and let the place go to hell
Sounds kind of out of touch given how protesters/rioters/community folks feel about cops these days. Then you have a Black Lives Matter militant on Tuesday evening proudly boasted over a megaphone that he wanted to murder NYPD police officers. And others ambushing officers in Tampa. Put a couple woke social workers that feel privileged and a therapist or two in there instead. Maybe a gang specialist from a sissy university. See how that works out when they start funning. Or why not put that alderman down there 24/7. Let him really earn that bloated salary.
Did Chance the snapper go to Florida or some early training? Or if you really want to secure the building try putting Groot on a lily pad in the moat.
Would you staff it 24/7?
Maybe this is where the Social Worker SWAT squad could work from?
Maybe build a playground in the lot next door, with bullet proof fences around it. Because it isn't safe to play in your front yard or even your own child's second floor bedroom in some of those neighborhoods.
Lord knows something has to change.
Great idea. We just saw two of these places, one in Minneapolis and one in Seattle.
Both were smashed up, looted, defaced, half-burned, after the police fled at city government's behest.
Oh. Groot tough words of the day - If the ACLU thinks thst clearing off corners won't save lives, "they need an attitude adjustment!"
Groot will tune 'em up with her ol' flat sap. Show these liberals.

Stay tuned.
Have you noticed that since they made pot legal all these political & community leaders are coming up with bizarre ideas. Will you have to share the chores (cutting the grass, washing windows, vacuuming, cooking, doing the dishes, etc.) with the community? Anything to piss away more taxpayer money and put the shake down arm on corporations to donate. Keep on toking!
Chicago is doomed no matter what, as well as the state! The city is broke, the state is broke yet the mayor and the governor are spending money they don't have on lots of shit we don't need! You cannot come out of the kind of debt that illinois is buried in if they don't stop spending, cut costs, reorganize statewide government to eliminate duplication, AND STOP THE MOTHER FUCKERS FROM CONTINUALLY STEALING AND RAISING TAXES! There are third world countries that are in better shape physically, financially & governmentally!
Maybe they could put a balance budget referendum on the ballot in November...Bet your ass you will never see that!
It’s a great idea essentially, f*ck being a sitting duck in the middle of the ghetto all night long though. We should be more like the firemen, we sit our asses in the station eating shit, napping, having a movie night etc... until a call comes out then we can respond accordingly. We can be even more like CFD and REFUSE to go to a call until our “qualified” community partners advise if we are needed or not. With 99% of the calls being bullshit I foresee us leaving the station once a night... for a coffee run.
A "Cop House"? So a place where Police Officers can station themselves when not out on the street?
Genius! A POLICE STATION! Why didn't someone think of this before?
oh, wait. They have.
And it's precisely what you fuckers have been saying needs to be "Defunded". So what is it? Cops or no cops? Pick one. Because a "Police House" with a fucking foosball table akin to a Frat house isn't going to be able to solve "Da Communities" problems, which are rooted in:
* Welfare dependency
* Drugs
* Single- or no-parent households
* Gangs
* Criminality glorified
* Education and rule of law demonized
You think "we" want to live with scumbags? A non-thriving community full of hate...fuck that!!! I wouldnt live in those neighborhoods if you gave everything free. You can keep your shithole. I could care less if the community hates us...right back at ya!
Hey the Alderman has a million dollar plus slush fund let him put his money where his big mouth is.
That would be inhumane to put alligators in the community. But if you do, name them Walter and Bradley. Kids, ask the grownups.
too late Beale... police are done being y'all punching bags and don't want a f'ing thing to do with your shit-hole police hating communities.
So this Alderman must have a house in his ward he wants to sell or rent to the city at a huge profit right? What could go wrong with a plan like This? Insider trading on home dealso and rehabbing the said home to make them fit for inhabitants. Chicago Values would insure these homes would become the most expensive homes in the city. Million dollar edificestore in abject poverty areas.
Better have bullet proof windows and walls and fireproof mterials is all I can say. And a sprinkler system. Reminds me of that movie Attack On Precinct Something.
Would become the Chicago version of the Seattle CHOPS. LOL
Chicago Government is like Hollywood these days: they keep trotting out remakes of Old Movies. Something similar to this "Cop House" was tried in Uptown back in the 1970's, and run by a Sergeant named Joe Mackey. At the time that "Da Community" consisted primarily of recently arrived White Appalachian and Native Americans. The influx of Black Gangs that currently dominate Uptown were not there yet. This plan was part of an early concept of Community Policing, intending to create bonds, friendships and trust between Police and Community. This sort of program actually works well in Japan, with its homogeneous population. It is sheer fantasy to think it will work here, even if the officers assigned were of the same Race as the residents. Because Police, at some point must Police. And at that point, all of the back slapping,abrazos and ritual handshaking means nothing when it comes time to make an arrest. Blood relatives are not going to put their superficial relationship with police, over their biological bonds. It is Naive to think someone is going to surrender a relative who has committed a felony, to the police, because the police are their "Friends" or new "Play Cousin"; please, Get Real. Baby "G"
If Beal is advocating for police, even indirectly, we truly are through the looking glass.
News flash Alderman. Everything so far is about getting police OUT of the neighborhoods. And you, you idiot, have done everything in your power to give them what they want with your policies. So, you want the officers to wear a target too...
That PPO that just quit the FOP can be the first (experiment) officer to live/work there. LOL
I remember something similar, but without police, in the 1970s (maybe 1980s too), where kids could flee Stranger Danger, by running to a safe house. Maybe, there was something similar, for women fleeing attackers too. 😑
Listen to what the community is saying ....they don't want the police "hunting" in their neighborhood, looking for tickets, looking for crime, stopping people... they want you to sit in one place and then....
respond to in progress part 1 crimes only,you don't need that many police for that
The houses are police stations and we have 23 of them.
first you don't want them in the hood now you want to move 'em in.
WTF?
can there be some consistency?
ANYbody hear what the current retiree number is for this year?
IT will be historic!
IF the mayor does not increase pay and benefits new officers will not apply to be patrol officers.
SO what should the new pay be? `
Great idea. How many Merit's do you think will fit inside? -don't forget the basement!
They had those in Belfast
Me thinks Chicago is doomed anyway. The downward trend is accelerating. What Detroit took 40 years will take Chicago maybe 15 years. And 19.5 took 8 and there is 1 with Lightloafers. Six years or less.
There will be communities that survive just like surrounding areas of metro Detroit. But property values within 50 miles of the metro center will plunge.
Seems that Baby “G” has given up his own blog and has returned to enlighten us dumbfucks with his pontificating. Must have been lonely over there...
Beale has to have an end game on this one. I wonder what it could be.
Now, kees me you fool!!!!
Our brilliant Commanders set up a base in the most violent part of Baghdad in a neighborhood with Shias and Sunnis fighting it out between each other non-stop. They moved in a 500 man Kurdish Commando Force, they are absolute killers and have hated Shias and Sunnis since birth. The entire neighborhood shot Aks at us all day. We had a shot spotter, it would just go ding, ding, ding, ding, ding until we turned it off. There was no way to fight back. They were in every building, every high rise. They would open a window, empty a mag at us, then go about their day. We were hit with seven to eleven accurate mortar rounds every single morning. We had at least one car bomb a week.
We had all the toys. We had the first Minigun mounted on a Humvee in the country, we could get tank support, gunship support, and artillery/mortar support. We had "kill or capture" orders, the President said, "the gloves are off". We could be as brutal as we wanted to be, we were fully supported for pure, unbridled brutality if we wanted. Not many guys were up for it. It doesn't work. Unless you plan to kill everyone, you will lose against the population if they hate you.
So why doesn’t. He move into the house. Serve the community. Be the man on the. Block
He knows so much
The cop house will include the alderman’s office and only be open when the alderman is in. Let’s do it. I can see crime going down already.
@“Baby”G””
Sgt. Joe Mackey, a name from the past. Many stories about “Jo E” better left untold. Wilson Men’s Club, Wooden Nickel, Bob Chinn’s place, Crazy Horse saloon, George Shien (foot man), ahhh dem were da days.
A. The community HATES us
B. The community doesn’t WANT to be friends with us
C. The community wants us OUT of their neighborhoods
D. The community believes WE are the problem
E. The community exists as it is because they WANT it that way
F. The community will NEVER give up their criminals, because they
are all OF the community.....sons, brothers, uncles, baby-daddies, etc
and the community partakes lavishly of the drug proceeds over which
the violence is the means.......
Did ANY items get returned to ANY store after all the looting by ANY parent
who knew their son, brother, uncle etc STOLE it? Ergo......culture is the problem, not the police....
No “police community house” will EVER fix anything.....one must ACKNOWLEDGE the true problem
before any acceptable solution can be made......
In defense of alderman Beale whom I have met on several occasions and respect, the point he makes is that block by block the city needs places that model stability. These places used to be called family homes where two parents raised children to work, hard act civil and obey the law. Sadly, the feral class has driven out the middle class and fire zones will only return to neighborhoods when bad examples are outnumbered by good examples.
Sounds like the old community relations satellite offices we had in the 70's. Whats old is new again.
Child care centers on the south and west side parents are now told please send crayons, books pencils and last but not least bulletproof vests.They are now required for are children under 5. Keep in mind this will only last until we have a new State's Attorney and mayor. Because the two idiots we have in charge now are totally incapable of stopping the murder of children 5 and under! In closing I would just like to say Fuck the mayor and State's Attorney.
Not a cop, extremely enraged citizen!
I've lived in circumstances like these before...in Iraq. It was called a Combat Outpost. Exciting, but no place to raise a family.
Not long ago they were offering coppers money to live in the communities thousands of dollars for down payments, but very few if any coppers took them up on the offer who wants to live in a community that has crime infested, especially now when the police are being beat up slapped by the elected? Who wants to even be near the community that’s OK I will do my job right the paper drive by smile and wave, when the bodies are on the ground I will help pick up the brass, as the blood is everywhere I will call for the fire department to do a wash down. Anything more is not what Do you want us to do, do you want us to lay down we will lay down you don’t want to back us that is fine you don’t want to indemnify us anymore from civil suits that’s fine you could follow that bullshit consent decree that you put together mayor with your cohorts that are nothing but scum. God bless the police is Fourth of July weekend will be epic stay safe protect each other protect police families remember that the lives that matter blue lives matter.
Lol and fukdat...
An unprotected/unfortified guard shack
plunked smack in the middle of a clearing
on Skeleton Island?
Not even if there was a cut-down 155mm
howitzer with canister rounds aimed out
the front door and Claymores on the very
small perimeter.
Put it next to a crack house
Stay away from the windows. LoL
That legal weed is going right to the noggin.
What out Tellaferrio, this guy just on-upped you.
Beale: “Where police can be stationed”.
(First commenter of the day hit the nail on the head.)
What about............SCHOOL ?
Instead of blm and lgblt studies, what about self esteem, common courtesy, respect of elders, community and authority?
Boner Beale forgot there’s that CTU Get Polices Out of CPS thing going around.
Does Beale have a few unoccupied properties in his portfolio in need of occupancy that pays more than Sect-8 ?
A brilliant idea from a brilliant AlderSpooge.
A community center where kid can go.
Man, if only the Park District, the YMCA, B.U.I.L.D., Scouts only thought of this first.
A community policing outpost, void of white shirts and swipe cards.
If there’s a Pulitzer for this guys thinking, he should get two.
Btw...did Beale stand up for or denounce The PopcornGate 13 ?
We already have Cook County Jail 90% empty from either covids or justice restorations so adults must be learning trust.
Is that J.I.S.C. still standing ?
Scattered site housing...to station police...for the kids.
Wow.
Hmm you say you want residency lifted aye �� well we have the flip side we're instituting it's called police houses. You must live in community police houses for 5 years after probation. Visitation to your families on your rdo if they're not canceled. Carry on
"...a South Side aldermen has suggested adding a so-called "cop house," or community-oriented policing home..."
If it connects, there will be noise complaints, and eventually the precincts will hit each other with drive-by's.
Hey alderman. Try raising your kids to obey the law and respect other humans. Do your school work and guess what. You can get a job.

Spot on, Beale couldn't support this place with police no matter what they were paid. I know you're reading this Beale, even people you trust wouldn't be in that house! Know that, believe that.
Armored buses taking officers to and from locations where their vehicles are parked.
For educated people it’s called a police substation.
Ha ha ha THAT'S what you have to do, police! You have to BUILD RELATIONSHIPS. As in, what, you set up a community house where the police sit and wait to be drive-by'd, while all the neighborhood gang bangers and drug dealers pop in for tea and crumpets? This shit would actually be funny, if it wasn't so deranged. Guess what? There already IS a police community house. It's called a POLICE STATION. You can come in the front door or the back door, your choice.
Earth-to-politicians: they call them "criminals" for a reason. All the money and good intentions in the world don't cause criminals to suddenly straighten out their lives. You can put them in jail where they belong and call it "racial injustice", or you can set them free and wish for pixies and unicorns as the babies receive lead in the back seat of mama's car. They're STILL criminals, and they're STILL going to do what nature intended.
Start worrying a little more about the people who AREN'T criminals and thugs, and stop telling us about how society has "failed" the scumbags. There are no do-overs here. If you're a scumbag, you need to be walled off from the rest of us for a GOOD LONG TIME, where you can THINK about your actions. Maybe someday you'll figure out the error of your ways. But at least in the meantime, it's one less piece of garbage around, ruining everyone else's lives.
And who do you think apprentice scumbags learn their trade from? That's right...the revolving door of the Illinois justice system has become nothing but a trade school for human trash. Nice job.
Beale always comes on late to a project or program. The house is already there and prepared to go. Modeled after Milwaukee and their Police Chief was here and inspected it.
Wait. Isn’t a “cop house” a....police station?
I’m honestly not sure anymore if I’m the one losing my ever loving mind or if our culture has truly gone this far off the rails.
This is perfect! Commander Spencer in 011 has a few houses in the district that he scammed the system for. AND he already provides full CPD security on that block. It's a win-win for him. This way he won't have to come up with excuses for why he doesn't provide the same personal protection to all of the other murderous blocks in the district. I'm sure this was his plan all along. He didn't get those 3 merit promotions for nothing!
Ha,ha,ha...we had a "cop house" up here in Racine and the 'peaceful protesters' burned it up. I wouldn't want to be in one of those places. It could quickly become an Alamo or Custer's last stand if the communerty got restless.
Isn't that the purpose is some what for school resource officers.....that are currently being screamed about getting out of schools????
Sounds like the definition of a Ward office.
Alligators would be impractical. In Chicago's cold weather months, if they could survive, they would be resting and not ready for any action. Even in the warm weather months, they would be active but their effective range would be limited.
Claymores, on the other hand, ...
These democrats and liberals are so fucking stupid it is unbelievable. So Against the police. On ONE hand they are calling for less police, defunding, getting officers out of schools, On & on & on. Then, out of nowhere "Hey, let's buy a house on every block so we can station those cops (you know, the ones we all Hate) Smack dab in the middle of the neighborhood we want them OUT of!" If the stakes for police officers futures dealing with these idiots weren't so high, their stupidity and schizophrenia would be laughable.
Rumors that this would be a sandbagged walls, topped with barbed wire, surrounded by an alligator filled moat and machine gun towers is (so far) unfounded.
That's sounds like the embassy in Mogadishu
Will there be room for the claymores?
Mayor Lightfoot had plenty of threats and warnings to restaurant and bar owners about shutting them down if they did not obey all of the scamdemic rules for reopening.The tough talk from this same Mayor is no where to be found when black people slaughter other black people including their children on a daily basis.With those people she tends to get down on her knees and grovel&plead with a few crocodile tears thrown in.The threats are also missing when the Mayor,s city is being looted and burned down.Guess its easier to go after those hardworking compliant business people and your odd rogue pastor that wants to hold a church service.DESPICABLE COWARD comes to mind in describing this Mayor.
This idea has work comp written all over it. Please implement this and let’s get paid.
Elgin has been doing this for like 30 years. It works really well. The officer living there, handles community issues with the neighborhood and doesn't go on patrol. They are usually there for 3 year periods. Elgin has seen dramatic drops in gang violence since they started this. However, I doubt it'll happen in Chicago because it'd cost a lot of money to buy/renovate these homes and train up the officers on what to do. They want to give us less money not more.
