FOP? PBPA?

Hopefully, you are aware of this already.

  • The Implicant Bias class being given by the ACLU is being recorded through Microsoft Teams.

    The second the “training” begins every written statement, along with audio and video of the participant is being recorded and uploaded to a platform.

    One of the big questions is whose platform is this “training” being uploaded to, the City’s or the ACLU’s and who has access to these recordings. The fact that we are not being asked for consent, let alone told that we’re being recorded is beyond intrusive.

    To anyone who is going to training, turn off your camera, make a supervisor tell you to turn it back on and when they do, take note of their name and star. If you do choose to engage in the discussion, just be aware that any statements you make are subject to FOIA and may be used against you in future civil, administrative, or disciplinary hearings.

    What is happening is not training. Training is supposed to be a place where mistakes are made and learned from. The entire premises of training is to use mistakes as a tool to enhance learning by providing important feedback. Training is not meant to be an opportunity for a bunch of police haters to lob loaded questions at Officers in hopes of getting that “gotcha” moment. There is no other company that would be allowed to spend 8 hours telling their employees that they are pieces of shit, under the guise of “training.”

    If this is what passes as training, then maybe CPS should have training for teachers on how not to rape children.

Being recorded without consent? In Illinois? By a hostile entity (ACLU) which will then sue the City for training we were required to go through? 

We're hearing a lot of cash registers ringing all of the sudden, but we aren't sure who is cashing in.

OT: From the SunTimes:
Trying to follow the protests with policy, Gov. J.B. Pritzker on Tuesday proposed ending cash bail, licensing police officers and updating sentencing laws as part of his seven-step plan to "reform and modernize the state's criminal justice system."

“At the state level alone, we spend billions of dollars a year keeping too many people in an overcrowded prison system that has proven itself too expensive, too punitive and wholly ineffective at keeping Illinois families safe," Pritzker said in a statement.

**Not to be out done, Lt Gov Juliana Stratton said in the same article:
Stratton said the proposed principles will "guide us on a path of repairing the historic harm caused by our justice system, especially in Black and Brown communities."

**I love this part at the end of the article:
In June, Pritzker declared Cook, DuPage, Kane, Kendall, Will and four downstate counties disaster areas, allowing him to mobilize Illinois National Guard troops and other state resources to areas hit hard by looting and civil unrest.

Heh...

This training has "JACKPOT"
written all over it.

They're recording to set Policemen up
to be snared in the big-assed perjury trap
they want ALL Policemen to be subjected to.

Part and parcel of the big push for
licensure to be able to work as a P.O.?

One mistatement...
One mental mishap...
One time something goes pear-shaped...

One unseemly circumstance
beyond your control and these
m/fers will jam you like a m/fin'
jelly-roll...

NO other profession is subjected to or is forced
to operate under such onerous, adversarial and deliberately
fraught oversight and rules of engagement.


If the aclu features prominently,
you just KNOW it's a bunch of
well orchestrated donkey-dung.

Ask to be given a direct order to be sent there. Keep a journal, including every star# and name of every supervisor involved before, during, and after. Do the same for any non-sworn personnel involved, including non-CPD personnel.

Do not say a word when there. Do not sign anything. Inform any supervisor they need to write on any document, "refused to sign".

Study the orders and rules/regulations. They will save your butt.

The sensitivity training or "equity" or whatever buzzword they choose, my bet is "systemic racism" is getting to be fairly commonplace at schools. It is a rather uncomfortable in-service for teachers and basically told we are doing things wrong and it needs to be fixed based off the color of our skin.

If Harris becomes President, the trainings will continue and the indoctrination will increase.

Police officers I don't know what to say, you are living in bizarro world and it is hard to read this blog and see how literally everything in your orbit is working against you. We pray for all you officers protecting us everyday.

Do you know how I know I’m a real piece of shit? Because I’m white, male, straight, and had 2 parents (of opposite genders) in a working household. I have been force fed the notion that all of these things not only mean I was born evil, but I also inherently treat anyone of a background different than mine unfairly and with hatred.

What the liberal world thinks of police officers is disgusting. There is no one more biased than the people who author, teach, and condone the “training” that is forced upon us.

"There is no other company that would be allowed to spend 8 hours telling their employees that they are pieces of shit, under the guise of “training.”

This was all tried and tested in the military. It started in the 80s, right after Affirmative Action was implemented. We were forced to attend "Equal Opportunity" classes every single year. Every single year, one of our guys would stand up and ensure that the instructor covered the most important part of the training that they always try to skip. Being a racist is not illegal, it really is that simple. We would MAKE the instructor admit that fact in class.
NOBODY can tell you who to like, NOBODY can tell you who to hate. Nobody can tell you how to think. It is pure Fascism. When you point this simple fact out, the instructors have to admit that it is true. It is part of their training, they just omit it.
After the training, we would go to the chow hall and sit at tables with our friends and coworkers. We all sat with people of our own race. We all got along fine and we all agreed that the training was a huge waste of training time.
Colin Powell once said that we have come a long way in the military in regards to Affirmative Action, as a country, we need to go even further. Affirmative Action made him a General, of course he supports it.

I was offered the "Equal Opportunity Trainer" job at the end of my military career. I was injured and needed "light duty". The training is three months long. There are few, if any, white males. With that certificate, you are eligible to teach for the government and private companies. The salary is 120k to give classes. Yep, these important (dare I say, essential workers?) individuals make double or triple the salary that a new a Cop makes. They never make a single decision on their own, they just parrot the nonsense.

ACLU is a NGO (non governmental organization) and should not be dictating the type of Re-Education and Reprogramming that the elected already bastardized. If the People don’t like the government or the officials they elected, they vote them out or recall for ouster. ACLU has been dead wrong night many fronts they’ve supported and is nothing more than an instigator with a tremendous budget and tax avoidance benefits. ACLU gets to keep rolling along because the Radical Elected allow them to run civic policy.

Re-educating grown’ass people?
ACLU gots the “privilege”, understand.

I’m not sure what the purpose of NGO mansplaining Implicant Bias on a whole, particularly to a gubmint agency, on gubmint time, on the gubmint dime when the rules of humanity are explained in the Ten Commandments, The Constitution, The Bill of Rights and taught general courtesy during the formative years of early education...or at one time used to be the standard.

These people have the privilege to tell the mindless masses that gasoline is bad, cow meat is bad, the local climate is bad, the entire GOP is bad and that it’s alright to destroy cities and economies to make the point.

We’re stuck between a rock, and a hard place, and the radical elected choices.
Implicated bias, legitimacy, inequities, social justice, they'll never be satisfied no matter what they’ll get paid to preach.

Sign in, sign out to make sure someone’s “spot” is saved and aclu gets paid.

Being recorded without your consent may be the crime of Eavesdropping under Illinois law. Refuse to speak when asked to during this training, other than to say "I do not give my consent to being recorded on this site". The City and whoever else forcing this on you may also be violating the Terms of Service for the software licensing agreement, because you did not give your consent to be recorded by face or voice. You can be ordered to attend, but not to participate by speaking or writing.

Exactly! Imagine is the races were reversed if the off duty black Sgt was white or Hispanic, that shot the autistic kid? What if the two black cops that shot the fleeing unarmed non-black in the back on the CTA platform as he ran away, were white or Hispanic cops? I think we all know those cops would be awaiting trial for attempted murder. Many don’t even know about these incidents because they media doesn’t report them and the politicians don’t care. It doesn’t fit their script. Scary times.

SCC, I am a Sergeant who has been the REAL police my entire career. First off, NO ONE will ever make me give an ORDER to turn THEIR BWC on for anything! If you are promoting the officers of this department to be a bunch of spineless halfwits who stand for nothing and fall for anything then fuckoff! Second, if an officer feels what is going on is a direct violation of department policy, Federal or State Law, or even the Constitution of the United States, then by all means let them stand up for themselves and activate their BWC to record the situation. I have seen too much crap happening to this department where we have people from the University of Chicago, ACLU, NAACP, Operation PUSH, and People who think they are Community Activists giving their two cents of "Who gives a FUCK!" about how Chicago Police should police the streets but are failing to put "OUR" uniform on and do the job in order to see what our job demands from those who do this job every day for many years.

Civilian here.

If I understand the law, there is no violation if there is no expectation of privacy. So that means that if you're attending a training program required to be attended by all employees, the courts will interpret this as a public space with no reasonable expectation of privacy.

If the allegations of surreptitious recordings are true, this would be consistent with how the City of Chicago and the ACLU have always conducted business.

Be wary. Be alert. Until the pendulum swings back to rational thought, stay silent. If I were attending, I would not engage in any discussions. Let the presenters spew their bs, hold your tongue, and then move on.

The evils of Marxism continues to infiltrate our society and tear down the foundations of American society. The newly installed Marxist Democrats running the city, county and State organs are ruining, bankrupting, decriminalizing the city/state. Crushing taxes, incompetent leadership, cronyism, political corruption, looting, rioting and the sacking of Chicago are their successes. Through the effective use of mind fucking people; fear and intimidation and population control via the Chinese Res Death, the Marxist Democrats are devouring any all of the social institutions that make America great. The Police are one of their main targets.

JCat lets make some noise on this issue. Their are legal remedies/waivers available for potential violations of the law.

If forced to attend do a Mike Madigan and say nothing. Capture any and all information being presented, identify the presenters/companies and make it public.

The advantage is to the ones who know what the Marxist are teaching in their re-education classes. Know their lies, know their falsehoods and expose them for their subversion and corruptive practices. Give them nothing.

The training was completed on-line and there is a slide that can be moved to cover the camera lens. The presenters were only as biased as anyone who is not the police can be when asking us to lower our guard when dealing with citizens. You just have to remember that they don't have many bias trainers killed by people they are trying to help. Be courteous, be professional, but be quiet...

Civilian here.

If I understand the law, there is no violation if there is no expectation of privacy. So that means that if you're attending a training program required to be attended by all employees, the courts will interpret this as a public space with no reasonable expectation of privacy.

If the allegations of surreptitious recordings are true, this would be consistent with how the City of Chicago and the ACLU have always conducted business.

Be wary. Be alert. Until the pendulum swings back to rational thought, stay silent. If I were attending, I would not engage in any discussions. Let the presenters spew their bs, hold your tongue, and then move on.

To anyone who is going to training, turn off your camera, make a supervisor tell you to turn it back on and when they do, take note of their name and star."

SCC, I am a Sergeant who has been the REAL police my entire career. First off, NO ONE will ever make me give an ORDER to turn THEIR BWC on for anything! If you are promoting the officers of this department to be a bunch of spineless halfwits who stand for nothing and fall for anything then fuckoff! Second, if an officer feels what is going on is a direct violation of department policy, Federal or State Law, or even the Constitution of the United States, then by all means let them stand up for themselves and activate their BWC to record the situation. I have seen too much crap happening to this department where we have people from the University of Chicago, ACLU, NAACP, Operation PUSH, and People who think they are Community Activists giving their two cents of "Who gives a FUCK!" about how Chicago Police should police the streets but are failing to put "OUR" uniform on and do the job in order to see what our job demands from those who do this job every day for many years.

Being recorded without your consent may be the crime of Eavesdropping under Illinois law. Refuse to speak when asked to during this training, other than to say "I do not give my consent to being recorded on this site". The City and whoever else forcing this on you may also be violating the Terms of Service for the software licensing agreement, because you did not give your consent to be recorded by face or voice. You can be ordered to attend, but not to participate by speaking or writing.

In 5 years with the rate of attrition the ONLY way we will be able to man beat cars will be with a minimum of a 12 hr day. They have tried to do the math even with a recovering hiring blitz and economy. For you kids that are waiting for someone else to get radical or do the heavy lifting you better wake up and organize. If you hated last summer or you don’t have families and thought the checks were cool, you had better think about the LONG term. We are already at 4 guys on my watch that were happily married with young families that are getting divorced. A 12 hour work day everyday will destroy you in a very short time and ensure more exhausted officers make terrible decisions, bad traffic accidents, and a rocky home life. I had a career previous to coming on the job and the 12 hour factory like shift work makes an unhealthy stressful job unbearable. With the upcoming guarantee of anarchy now is the golden opportunity to force the Mayor into contract negotiations. If we miss this chance to push threw or at least pick an arbitrator and wait until 2021 we have lost our bargaining power.

No street protests on this one...

LAPD cop's bodycam footage shows the terrifying moment deranged man grabs his gun in police station and repeatedly pulls trigger but leaves safety on, then pistol-whips him bloody

* Assailant walked into LAPD Harbor Community station in San Pedro on September 26

* Man attacked desk officer Anthony Freeman, who was on duty at the station just after 10pm

* Video shows man knocking desk officer to the ground and taking his handgun

* Man aims gun at officer's chest and throat and 'repeatedly pulls trigger'

* But the gun did not fire due to a safety mechanism that was activated

* Video shows the assailant pistol-whipping the officer before fleeing

* A watch commander than appears, but assailant allegedly fired shots at her

* Police identified suspect as 29-year-old Jose Cerpa Guzman

* Guzman, charged with attempted murder of policeman, held on $2.2million bail

Looks to me like officer had a Beretta 92 - and it looks like the barrel may have been bent from the force of the blows inflicted.

The Chronicle of Higher Education reported that researchers find:

"that the correlation between implicit bias and discriminatory behavior appears weaker than previously thought. They also conclude that there is very little evidence that changes in implicit bias have anything to do with changes in a person’s behavior. These findings, they write, “produce a challenge for this area of research.”

But our city & liberal politicians,(ACLU..etc) will beat us over the head with the notion that we are racist whether we like it or not.

Off topic. Does BGA , news media investigate if all the new low income housing in Englewood and Part of our mission to create a more inclusive Chicago—a city where all residents have access to the resources they need to lead happy, safe and fulfilled lives—starts with housing. Years ago, the intersection of 44th and Cottage Grove was home to one of the Washington Park Homes high rises and then the site stood vacant for two decades. Now, it's a mixed-income housing development anchored by community-based businesses.

Is this housing offered to all races of low income or is Mayor Lightfoot redlining and excluding Asian , Caucasian and HispanicX from moving into these city funded housing units . It seems Racist.

Implicit Bias, so more of the Glenn Singleton "Whiteness", and "Courageous Conversations" horseshit?

Wonderful >sarcasm<

They can require you to attend, but they can't require you to give a shit. Getting paid to attend? Greeeeat >more sarcasm<

Is there a test at the end? If not, then cover the camera with one of those 3M "post it page tags" - where it's some color at the top and translucent at the bottom. Do that BEFORE the camera turns on.

It'll blur the shit out of the image, make it useless. When the moderator says "#XYZ your camera is blurry", just respond "Sorry, must be a technical difficulty.", then ignore anything that could remove the tape until the camera is off (when this horseshit lecture is over).... let it STAY BLURRY. That 3M stuff doesn't leave any sort of residue, and you can wipe the thing with your shirt to be doubly certain...

They'll have no idea if you're there or not. If there's no test, then put a hat and a shirt on the chair and the blur will look like a person. Go take a piss. Get some food. Ignore this idiocy. Do not acknowledge anything. Play the Dan Akroyd bit that was used to make it seem like the microphone cut out in the 80's movie: 'Spy's Like Us'... say a word, go silent, continue with the sentence... tell them it's more technical difficulties. Let them prove otherwise, and good luck with that. Let them spend LOADS of money trying to figure out all the 'problems' as they try to foist this useless crap upon everyone.

If you must have the camera on, turn it upside down. Turn it to one side or the other. Make it on an angle...

I wouldn't take any test, write any essay, or say a thing that they can record and use against you. Even if they say it's NOT being recorded, someone, somewhere, somehow - CAN record it, probably will so they can use it against you. If they say "This is being recorded, say 'I do not consent to being recorded.', then if they record that you don't consent and they record anyway - the onus is on them to edit you out. If they say "You have to be recorded, say 'No I don't, and I'm not going to'". Do not make it easy on them. Let THEM work for it.

This "training" could be some fucking handout that you can throw right in the trash after it's given to you and they check off you got it. But they want to do it remotely for some reason other than saving $$$ because we all know they give two shits about saving a buck in this city.

They are so very naive and my other coworkers couldn’t get a non condescending word in edgewise. They are still running around oblivious to the current political climate and my prayer is that although young ,arrogant and glued to the electronic devices they don’t get sewn into poorly paid indentured servants with a meaningless badge and a gun that is a liability for the rest of their careers.

You must love Illinois politics. Not many mayors, or now tax payers, will be happy with the governor's statement about licensing police officers. It will cost billions. Many small municipalities will disband due to eventual costs due to uniformity rules.

On top of costs, Chicago's city hall been silent about it, why, for it will legally dispand COPA & the Chicago police board if implemented.

llinois has a dept of licenses through its labor dept etc. The legal precedent on rules has been set with doctors, lawyers, barbers, concelors, & many other professions in court. An officers cannot be fired, they have to find cause to have a licenced revoked or suspended, and the state has to implement ways to be re-licensed, or established rules to break- get this- even if convicted of a felony if it's unrelated to work ( ie bar fights, drunk driving, domestics) reminder, can't be fired - just no pay status until a final determination is made. Nothing is automatic with licensing unless the scenario is documented in rules beforehand ( ie every single scenario must be written out & a response to it as a precedence) . Also, the new police board determining if you lose you'll license ,legally, has to be comprised with a majority percentage of police officers.

I hate her and Sleepy Joe, but in the spirit of transparency (Democrats love that word), she said choke holds and carotid holds, not karate holds. Now the MSM refers to the Minneapolis officer kneeling on Saint George Floyd's neck as a form of carotid hold, which it is not. When I came on the job, we were taught the "L.A. Chokehold" which indeed was a carotid hold, but that was eliminated in the entire country (even L.A.) after the Rodney King incident. The carotid choke hold is pressing on the windpipe, while at the same time, squeezing the carotid artery to restrict blood flow. Works great. I took down many bad guys who were much bigger than me and would have kicked my ass in a knock-down drag out street fight. The irony here is that when most municipalities stopped approving the L.A. Chokehold (which rendered a subject immobile within seconds) they approved methods like kneeling on the neck of a resister as long as you didn't kneel on the carotid artery. If the L.A. Chokehold was still permissible, Saint George Floyd would have been in cuffs and on his way to the police station much quicker than 8 minutes and 45 seconds. I love pointing out the irony of poor liberal democratic policies.

Many companies are doing this training. It’s called “CRT” critical race theory or critical race training or some other “its all whiteys fault” bullshit. It’s been proven that this type of training just decides the races even further.

----------

Half of Illinois’s statewide officials are African American: Lieutenant Governor Juliana Stratton, Secretary of State Jesse White, and Attorney General Kwame Raoul. Illinois has sent more African Americans to Congress — 18 — than any other state, and the count isn’t even close. We’ve also had three black senators, and, of course, we produced the first and only black president.

Every top job in the City is staffed by an African American. If there is "systemic racism" in Illinois, it's not "White People" doing it.

Does BGA , news media investigate if all the new low income housing in Englewood and Part of our mission to create a more inclusive Chicago—a city where all residents have access to the resources they need to lead happy, safe and fulfilled lives—starts with housing. Years ago, the intersection of 44th and Cottage Grove was home to one of the Washington Park Homes high rises and then the site stood vacant for two decades. Now, it's a mixed-income housing development anchored by community-based businesses.

Is this housing offered to all races of low income or is Mayor Lightfoot redlining and excluding Asian , Caucasian and HispanicX from moving into these city funded housing units . It seems Racist.

You're funny!- "Does BGA , news media investigate".....

You're not from Chicago, are you?

The Chicago media doesn't investigate ANYTHING. They print what City Hall allows them to print.

The BGA. I don't even know where to start on these a-holes.

Why can't you opt out? This is filtering into Indiana -- Holcomb -- by the way. Not sure what our current governor is up to but he's going to have to go next election. Wife works for them, they're having the workshops now. She wants to hold her ground, 3 years to fully vested, not sure she can hang on....

Kamala said she is banning "chokeholds and karate holds". Can someone show me a department-approved "karate hold" so that I won't do it anymore?

10/07/2020 09:34:00 PM

I understand that the NYPD has banned any police officer from holding anyone around the neck or head . Now, when I was active, I was in my share of street fights as few individuals ever peacefully surrendered for arrest. In just about every case when I was alone or there were two of us I had to grab the jerk around the head or neck or I would have lost the fight. Maybe liberal cop haters like Harris should have to actually experience some of this to see what they are really asking. Yes, there have been a few deaths around the country from " choke holds", but usually associated with drug abuse and poor health history aggravated by the hold. Not enough to put cops in danger. All they are going to do is encourage every police officer to stand down and not arrest anyone if they want to fight

I was involved in a law suit some years back when I was still on the job. The outside attorney hired by the city came up with just about everything that I ever put on paper and used this as exhibits. I was grilled about every sentence. Be careful what you write down and these days what you say on any film made at department events or on social media. All of it can be used against you. Attorneys are not nice people. It is all about winning for them at all costs.

The Chronicle of Higher Education reported that researchers find:

"that the correlation between implicit bias and discriminatory behavior appears weaker than previously thought. They also conclude that there is very little evidence that changes in implicit bias have anything to do with changes in a person’s behavior. These findings, they write, “produce a challenge for this area of research.”

But our city & liberal politicians,(ACLU..etc) will beat us over the head with the notion that we are racist whether we like it or not.

Interesting. I can say I have been on this job well over 20 years and NOT ONCE have I discriminated based on race. Not once. I am insulted by the implication that I may have implicit bias.

Off Topic. Kevin suspended from union for 3 years. What the actual fuck is going on? Threatened to suspend marty too. Jcat is the epitome of a bully.

So, the past president had a hidden camera with remote access in his office. Did anyone else know this? Did he tell anyone about this? And, when he left the post he left the camera and apparently was still watching it remotely, or had the capacity to do so. That is wrong on so many levels and might even be criminal.

We attended Equal Opportunity classes every year in the military. To make it fun, we would all come up with embarrassing scenarios and situations to ask the instructor for advice on how to handle it.
I asked, "I was in our open bay showers with several other soldiers and Sgt Walter entered". "I complimented him on the size, girth, and tremendous fitness of his non-erect member but He did not respond", "Did I cross a line?"
"Sgt Walter then called me gay".
"Did Sgt Walter cross a line by calling me gay when clearly I am not?" "I'm not gay, I just really admire the male physique". "I believe in the beauty of the phallic form."
"In this scenario, who is right?" "I guess I have to add, I am white, Sgt Walter is black, and there was a Hispanic and an Asian soldier present who are not nearly as gifted as Sgt Walter".
Sgt Walter was laughing so hard he was crying.
If they want to play a game, play the game in a way that you can enjoy and show them that their nonsense is just.....nonsense, and will be treated as such.

If you're forced to do this, put your iPods on, play some games on your phone, don't engage them at all. Don't say a word. If asked a direct question, shrug your shoulders or at the most say something innocuous like "I don't know, I don't have an opinion, move on to someone else." When you talk to them you are making their day and falling into their trap. Disassociate your mind. Hell, make a grocery list. Tune them out. If there are questionnaires, make them invalid however you can. DO NOT TALK TO THESE PEOPLE!

I agree except for the "listen" part. Daydreaming is better. Be like Ralph in "Christmas Story". Hell, play a movie over in your head. Close your ears and keep your pie hole shut. Back in the day I would have been belligerent to these people, but now you just have to ignore them, because arguing is futile, as is expressing your opinion.

So they mention that sometimes people act out for lacking items above. So I asked Iam I supposed to just treat everyone with compassion and empathy regardless that they are committing a crime and just ask them how I can help and remain understanding of their lack of above items :<) I got them to admit they "[we] don't want us to stop policing"

10/07/2020 04:57:00 PM

So you sort of won an argument against morons. Wasted your time and energy...and gained nothing.

Wear sunglasses and take a nap next time. At least you'll get some rest instead of engaging with idiots.

If you want to find one, Detroit and Washington DC are good places to start.

don't ever trust the ACLU follow how they were started after WW1 by a guy named Baldwin whose main aim was the over throw of the USA and its Constitution,,they were so blatant then and so top heavy with devoted Reds that the Govt, when it had balls had what they called the Palmer Raids and rounded all the fellow travelers up and put them on a ship in New York Harbor and sent them to Mother Russia where when they arrived were considered spys for the capitalists and sent to Siberia,,,hows that for karma boys and girls??

I know for an absolute fact that it's being recorded. There was an old timer (white guy with over 30 years on) that dropped an "N- bomb" while arguing with an f1 moderator. This is why the Sgt. in the beginning warns everyone not to use racial slurs. She even says someone got jammed over it. I was told by the supervisor there that they not only recorded the incident, but they had a print out of everything people wrote. So, it's true. The Sargent there freely admits it, so it's not a secret.
