Groot Huffs and Puffs

Groot's fantasy land:

  • Word from a good source on 5th Floor, Lightfoot is now dead set on no retro and layoffs to punish our F.O.P. She hates Catanzara so much she starts trembling(direct quote) when she hears his name. She was overheard telling her staff she doesn’t give a fuck if the whole bunch of inbred idiots(CPD) leaves. Her new mission is for us to not see a contract in her first term. I sure hope the Union gets a lot more radical or we are in for rough waters.

Good thing it isn't up to her. If it goes to Arbitration, he's bound by precedent and retro has been awarded for every single contract when the City decided not to negotiate in good faith. Also, every other Union has gotten retro.

Layoffs are another fantasy. If the City would offer a decent buyout package, she'd get more than enough people to leave. In fact, this is going to be a near-record year regardless even without a Contract.

I wish they’d do a buy out. I’ve a year and a half left. give me the insurance and I’m out. The house is going up for sale after that happens. Adios, Chicago. Adios, Illinois. I’ll only miss the Chicago I remember with family as a kid and the one I knew up until about 15 years ago.

I think it’s cute she believes “first term” like there could be a second. Even in this crazy socialist workers paradise known as Chicago, she is too inept and incompetent to be re-elected. Michigan Avenue will remember. The neighborhoods will remember. Many of the aldercreatures will remember. Some may even challenge. Re-election for lawless-lightfoot is a pipe dream.

Retro is an absolute given. During every contract negotiation over my 27 years on the job there is a city threat or rumor of no retro. Yet every contract has had retro when settled. She doesn’t have a short leg to stand on when it comes to retro. If she wants to cut costs then lower the age for retiree health insurance. There are several hundred Officers who are between 50-54 years old with 28-33 years on the job that would probably leave immediately if they got the retiree health insurance that people aged 55-59 are getting(currently 2% but will most likely be going up to 3.5% like the Sgts and CFD). Insurance for people who retire between 50-54 is between $1300-$2000 a month depending on whether you need single, single plus 1, or family. That’s why people maxed out between 50-54 end up staying until 55. She could unload the salaries of a few hundred people being paid at a 25 year step rate.

Of course Bugeyes hates us.

You don’t think s/he has minions and sycophants reading SCC for Intel, also absorbing all the insults?

So of course Larry’s going to try to fuck us. Would you go out of your way to play nice with people who hate your guts?

And Larry lied through it’s teeth when it said it didn’t know who J-Cat was... even after he showed up every month at the city Council meeting to take the microphone and lambaste Larry while occasionally wearing “Groot” shirts.

So, yeah... don’t expect anything to be easy regarding the contract. It’s going to be a battle at every turn.

I'll be first in line for a buyout. Put your money where your mouth is, bug-eyed mayor dumbshit. You want us gone, make it happen. But you can't and won't. Instead you're allowing endless overtime for the police, because you know you need us, now more than ever. You force us to surround your house to protect you and your family. You wouldn't last a day in this city without police protecting your sorry ass. Now let's analyze that "inbred" statement. I've only ever heard that used as an insult to describe white people. It seems kind of racist. I sure hope our fine mayor didn't say that. I'm sure she did though. JCat needs to do everything he can to antagonize and embarrass this hateful troll of a "woman." She's unstable, just like all liberals. Keep pushing until she breaks. She deserves every bit of it.

I support Catanzara! First FOP president I have trusted since I’ve been on. You’ve treated us like dog shit from day one. The vast majority of CPD have sacrificed too much...our time, our families, our sanity, our pride, our safety. Who the fuck do you thin you are to force us into slave labor work while spitting in our faces, all the while ordering police to protect you and your family. This is hypocrisy at its finest, absent the “media” calling you out. The time for negotiating is over. These issues need to be brought to the forefront for our pension, the retirees and the citizens. All three of those fronts have been fucked for bullshit politicians, race baiters and media elite.

To Mr. Catanzara: thank you, sir! Please stay the course.

As badly as Chicago's citizens vote, not even Chicago deserves a Groot.

A higher authority needs to intervene and remove her from office for dereliction of duty. The City Council sure doesn't have the courage to impeach or otherwise initiate proceedings to remove this misfit from office.

It has been some years since I was involved in contract negotiations in city government. But, as I recall, if the arbitrator writes an award, it then must go to the city counsel as only the legislative branch can award money. If the city counsel does not approve then the entire matter heads to the courts. It really is out of the mayor's hands at this point, unless you believe that the city mayor controls the aldermen and the judges, which at one time was accurate, but not now.

You have activity, take a minute to write the report and then do the next one.

Look, here’s the deal...
Democrats are pushing this Re-Imagined Police and policing thing...whatever it means, but likely nothing more than a $15 communitay activism ensemble that will one day morph into a staatspolizei that be knocking down doors and confiscating firearms by force.

LarriLarri why you bugging?

All the trademarks of a mental meltdown coming. Insomnia coupled with bipolar affliction, what a recipe. That pacing around all night in a 500 sf John Hancock studio condo apartment has to be annoying to the other two occupants.
What to do, what to do. Is there a Red Flag Law available for unhinged mayors?

Lyin’Larri is desperately trying build a base and the only one she can hope to hop on that’s trending (post-Covid) is the anti police bandwagon, since her way earlier efforts got nowhere when she was gifted a couple appointed spots that proved she’s an incompetent hack.
She’s a dwarf of a radical activist, chanting the same F***-12 battle cry like the rest of them. Trying to break our spirit and having very, very little success. That’s why she’s running sporadic 12 hour days, canceling days off and altering start times. She got nuttin.

The City and it’s taxpayers are getting tired of her twitchy errant behavior bursts. Shut out taxpayers, those that are out and about are getting accosted by violent feral thieves should have gotten the message. Heck, I’d bet $2 that if there was an election for mayor this November, that Rahm or ShortShanks would win big. Let’s hope lakefront and downtown residents come out an vote for Pat O’Brien for Cook County States Attorney... only then will we see a step towards the beginning of the end of this tyrannical rule and politically tolerated lawlessness.

Ignore the AngryToad and the ghetto affairs.

For those that don't get this let me explain...by working without a contract and then no retro pay we lose big. not only don't they have to pay a raise to us but they don't have to pay backpay during the time that we were without a contract. another way to look at it: it's a bargaining chip for the city. when they come to the table they'll say "nope, we aren't going to pay retro back to the day of the last contract...when the arbitrator says that he/she wants something in good faith they'll offer a low ball amount. all the while this thing could be tied up for another three years.

I am a retiree and what the hell I will ask the obvious here.In what world do we live in where a bunch of do nothing,failures at their job,communist,and in many cases criminal CPS Teachers receive a 16% raise and continue to contribute 2% towards their pensions while sitting at home for 10 out of the last 12 months get treated like royalty in this city while the brave men and women of the Chicago Police Department are continually shown hatred and disrespect by this Mayor as they hit the streets and protect us all tour after tour?

heard Barz got mad at summer mobile for not bringing in activity on 9/18 so made this whole bunch stay their full tour! These are the same guys that got him to the spot he’s in by making him look good. The guy is definitely a rat prick!

9/23/2020 12:30:00 AM

Barz has been stepping on people his whole career, if you "made him look good" and thought it would be reciprocated you are mistaken. You didn't make him look good either. Getting made a Commander of unit as your first command and then being promoted to Deputy two months later is something only a true ball licker can accomplish. First time someone steps on their dick at CST watch Barz piss all over them.


PS......Oh yeah, don't get used to that abortion of a unit over there because when shit gets wild again and times are a changing you will be in the third district on midnights until you can bid out.

There will be no buyout and there will be no lowering of the retirement age with insurance. The pension could not sustain that. It's nice to think about it but forgetaboutit.

I would take it with the following four concessions by the city:
1. Police allowed to strike
2. Police may NOT be forced to work involuntarily (crazy, right?); wether day off cancelled, extension of tour for “peaceful protests” or any other events and no involuntary callbacks
3. City follows federal labor laws or faces punishment set forth by federal law (access to food, water, breaks and bathrooms as designated under said federal labor laws. “Peaceful protests” are not a listed exemption under federal labor laws.
4. Allow officers to live out of the city.

When you look at it this way, we are indentured servants, not public servants, if you choose to work as CPD. We can’t strike when mistreated, we can’t speak our minds under the first amendment, we are forced to live on the master’s land while being worked as hard as the master commands. No other citizen gets worked liked that...if they were, they’d have one hell of a pay day.

Her Hatred no longer masks her complete and utter incompetence. I'd take the pre-55 buyout, as I'm almost maxed, (too young) but I can wait until her ass is voted out. I have a few University tuitions to pay off. I can tuff it out until her Meds. are adjusted or she pulls a Mayor Washington. Its coming. Her shaking is a true indicator of her current health. Her "spare tire" is no asset either.

Absolutely correct. Where ever I go in Chicago every single citizen I encounter thanks us for the job we do. says how sorry they are for the way we’re treated and then they go on to say how much they hate Lightfoot. You can hear and see the anger and hate they have for her and can’t wait to vote her out. Downtown business and residents are especially angry with her. Out on the Westside the people despise her. Hopefully Willie Wilson runs next time. Lightfoot will be lucky to get 5% of the vote.

I think it’s cute she believes “first term” like there could be a second. Even in this crazy socialist workers paradise known as Chicago, she is too inept and incompetent to be re-elected. Michigan Avenue will remember. The neighborhoods will remember. Many of the aldercreatures will remember. Some may even challenge. Re-election for lawless-lightfoot is a pipe dream.

9/23/2020 12:25:00 AM

It’s actually a little refreshing to hear the enormous amount of Chicago citizens walk up to us and go on long rants about how much they can’t stand Lightfoot. I’ve never seen so much hate toward a mayor. She has no clue how much Chicago hates her. People also hate many of the aldermen too because they stay silent and do whatever Lightfoot says. They are blaming Lightfoot and her buddies for destroying Chicago and demonizing the police for no reason at all.

This is an idea I heard from an officer. But if the police can not set there hearts on retro. We should just tell the mayor we’re good. Keep your $3 an hour raise. We the FOP want the same contract as we just finished with. No raise sure but also no change to health cost no change to free insurance at 60 and also no way to change discipline. The mayor would shit herself if no change in discipline. I know it’s a long shot copper want more money but at least we are working. Besides it would be the best bargaining chip.

C’mon it’s Chicago !!!!!!! She will win again and again she’s
A bitch but she’s not stupid she has learned how to play
The game . During election time all the people who claim
They hate her ( besides us ) will turn around and vote her
In again . Some because she promised shit for votes some
Just cause she’s black ( liberal white people ) but none because
They care about the job she has done . None the less Chicago way
Predicts almost guarantees she will be here for as long as she wants
Rahm is gone because he didn’t want to deal with it anymore no other

If this isn’t the final straw what is? It’s gone beyond simple disrespect and is outright hatred directed towards people(CPD) who are tasked with protecting taxpayers from anarchy and evil. Her attitude cannot be adjusted by words or minor disruptions CPD needs to abandon her entirely to the mob she coddles and enflames. We cannot strike but sometimes coincidental illnesses happen in this time of Covid. It’s time to act and use one of our last contractual rights to do so. Cov-ember is coming up and beyond necessary and overdue.

It is obvious that Groot hates the Chicago Police Department and its officers.

No contract
No negotiations
No salary increase
More trivial accountability
Talk of layoffs
Record level of retirements

Someone needs to have her sit down and share her long term goals for the Police Department and the City. Eventually the city will have to recruit replacement officers. What is there to attract decent applicants. Bad applicants can be very expensive.

Is her goal to just have it wither away to nothing.......except for the detail guarding her house.

Larry is a typical progressive democrat, dumb as a box of rocks, vulgar, and hateful. It's a shame the people of Chicago elected this fool. Larry and Debozo in a race to the bottom. But murder mayor Larry still thinks he is loved. Imagine calling that, dad.

If ya want to give me a raise and give me some back pay go for it, but I have more than enough money already!

I was going to retire in Feb but might stay through summer 2021 to take advantage of the Summer OT.
