Dead PODs

Anyone know if there's a current listing of:

  • POD camera locations, and
  • POD cameras out of service?

Someone emailed us (and someone else commented) that many POD cameras are reaching the end of their effective lifespans (not to mention warranty expiration for parts) and the inoperative status is far past 25% non-functional, approaching 33%.

And Conehead is earmarking $70 million for illegals with almost nothing budgeted for POD maintenance, repair or replacement.

You know the media won't be asking anything like this.

POD cameras are RACIST like ShotSpotters.
Get rid of them and give at least every Democrat ONE BILLION dollars in reparations.
That will make everything better.

Then I can pay all my baby mommas.

First they want to eliminate shotspotters.

Now they let pod cams go dark.

Seems like they want no prying eyes,to see what their loyal minions are doing, nor hear it.


The communities know.

The communities see and hear.

The communities don't care.

A good question to ask the administration would be to report the number of unfilled vacancies in Motor Maintenance and Technical Services.

Mayor Conehead thinks taking care of illegals is more important than taking care of citizens. No keeses for him.

Just a wee bit off topic

With groot back in town investigating Henyard at 400 DPH.
How big is that entourage of coppers and city vehicles?
That Dollar Per Hour amount has to run in the thousands.

Well if 25% are down maybe they can start sending the chosen pod watchers back to beat cars.

All the pods are disproportionately placed in black and brown neighborhoods. They need to put them in white neighborhoods to. Where is the ACLU???

The original versions of these were built in the early 2000’s mostly with commercial, off the shelf IT components inside a reasonably durable plastic box. I don’t know how many of those are still out there, nor do I know if they’ve been updated since, but there’s no IT gear that you could buy over 20 years ago and expect it to still work.

I am going to give brandon johnson a word of warning. Give up being mayor, you suck at it, really suck. Now, if you can understand this, nobody gives a fuck that your black, seriously dude. Your heart is as “black” as your skin color, which means your not a very nice person, what did you think the mayoral position was about? Kissing babies, and giving everyone an extra hour of recess before going back to class? You are as dumb and stupid as your racist ideologies and beliefs. Chicago and Illinois need leaders not a fat ass Governor who sits on his brains all day worried about his bank account and new ways to make money from other peoples grief, nor a racist mayor who stirs the proverbial black pot of racism. Tell you what, it doesn’t matter how many cops, former commandos, or security people you have protecting you or the fat guy. We are going to get you! Go ahead dig a hole, we will get you! Go hide out in Washington D.C. we will get you! Got it?

When POD video cannot be retrieved during a crime, especially a police involved shooting, everyone will cry “conspiracy”.

You can see the locations in Cabaoodle. And if you know how the program works you can export that to an excel sheet

Well once again SCC you let Rich Guidice off the hook. Not only did he know the life span of certain cameras, but he also neglected to get them back on-line. The number of cameras that are out across the city is staggering. Now Rich looks like a Rock Star.

Oh wait, according to NBC 5 News Carol Marin story, Rich is an unpaid advisor to the mayor for the DNC. Try emailing him at richard.guidice@cityofchicago.org

it will not get bounced back, which means his account is still activate..

Conhead is a weak, unfit and worthless human excrement. Like the Village Idiot in DC, Conehead will be unquestionably the worst and most incompetent mayor in the city's history. All this in less than 12 months. Just think what the next three years of disaster will bring to shitty city.

Along with a dead pension:

Of course, it also didn’t help when the state passed legislation, requested by then-Mayor M. Richard Daley, that allowed Chicago to take "pension holidays" —that is, make little to no pension contributions — in 2006 and 2007. Together, these state laws ultimately account for $13.33 billion, or 59%, of the $22.6 billion aggregate growth in unfunded pension liability from 2007-2022.

Just remember this while running and gunning.

Who cares about the pods. The people manning the cameras are idiots. Squad he’s running with a beer can get him.

When they first came out, each one had a flashing blue strobe light. I guess it looked bad as more and more were needed in such close proximity to one another. It has gotten to the point where shitheads either forgot about pods or don’t care but it’s fun to watch them sell dope right underneath them.
