Love Letter to Larry
Are they grooming him to run for mayor?
Many of Chicago’s top leaders are facing strong headwinds.
Mayor Brandon Johnson has suffered embarrassing defeats, and he’s now trying to force out his public schools chief.
The heads of the city’s transit and housing agencies have both faced calls to resign. And the police oversight boss is at the center of lawsuits alleging bias and whistleblower retaliation.
Larry Snelling, meanwhile, has established himself as a steady hand over his first year as the city’s top cop, leading a historically scandal-plagued department out of a tumultuous stretch. During the Democratic National Convention — Snelling’s first big test — he emerged as the calm face of the city.
The article is extensive, covering wins, loses and somewhat even handed with criticisms, even pointing out Conehead's pathetic attempt to hitch his political wagon to the Convention success - after the fact and after all the politicians had left town.
Go read it all, remembering that Larritorious was one of the more enthusiastic exempts stripping Officers who dared to exercise bodily autonomy. Anyone willing to deprive you of your personal Freedom can never be fully trusted in our opinion.
As to the future?
Asked if he has any ambitions beyond policing, Snelling smiled and said, “My aspiration is to find some rest and go fishing.” “If you’re talking about politics,” he added, “absolutely not.”
Yeah, we've heard that one before.

He has earned my vote. This is a show boating, not doing much Superintendent. The media wants to sell him as our savior. But all who work this job no better.
As it stands, Supe Snelling would have a difficult time being in politics because he’d have to pick his own administration/ transition team/ department heads, and that’s about 50 to 80 individuals. Well, look at how he’s running the department. He’s only made two small/ insignificant command changes. He’s dragging his feet on making command changes within the department.
Meanwhile, behind the scene the department is taken a nosedive.
I want Larry to do some push-ups at a presser.....
And we all know what he means by “fishing.” Sniff sniff Larry.
Snelling proudly stripped me for not taking the notorious jab that Lori Lighthead mandated everyone to take and now, in 2024, citizens are mysteriously becoming sick. Lighthead and Preckwinkle were getting money on the backend because the vaccination companies were billing the government for each individual that took the sauce. Lighthead and Fratwinkle forced all city and county employees to take the Fauci sauce, and Supt. Snelling and other top brass carried out that mission. In recent years, we’ve learned that individuals that voluntarily took the jab and boosters are just as at risk for contracting Covid as those that didn’t.
Larrytorius has higher ambitions. He wants to be the next mayor.
Doubt he would get enough votes to win office anyways...
He would make Eric Adams & Tiffany Henyard look like two of the best mayors to ever live! I'll pass on snelling & the dick eating mayor we have needs to resign!
My goodness. The city will accept anyone as mayor. Perhaps it would be prudent to elect someone who excelled at economics, or finance while attending business school.
OT- See-everything is ok now: activity is rebounding on the Mag Mile, with new stores moving in and the Loop Alliance says foot traffic is skyrocketing. In some cases, it's hitting pre-pandemic levels.

Go fishing for female recruits?

Don’t know Snelling. From the comments I’ve read over the past couple of years, he may have a lot of skeletons in his closet to become mayor.
But Johnny says Larry is a breath of fresh air, after he said he was coming for his job. Johnny makes a lot of false promises.
Donald Trump for Chicago mayor!
Ask New York about how they feel about electing a "former police officer" to the mayor's office on a "reform" platform...
does anyone here really care what the suntimes has to say???
Dear Super(awesome)intendent Snelling, we at the Suntimes love how great you are, and your big muscles. You are the bestest policeman ever! Please consider running for mayor, alderperson(they), school superintendent, head of COPA, Cook County president, and head of the White Sox, all at the same time. You are that fabulous! XOXOXOXOXO Tom Schuba.
How is it working for NYC?
The progressive activists and their lakefront supporters have taken a strong foothold in Chicago. They do not like the police and would support Larry Hoover before Larry Snellings.
I don't see him running for mayor and don't think the city can afford a third
mayor with no governmental experience, but from an outsider's perspective, he looks a lot better than the dope Lightfoot brought in from Dallas.
This department was a sunken ship before Snelling took office, and all Snelling has done is moved two bosses around. The only reason the DNC was a success is because we didn’t get the 25,000. In order to get the truth about the department, Dorthy Tucker needs to interview officers below the rank of sergeant. The only reason Snelling’s head is so big is because he’s getting his feedback from gold stars that attend Comstat,, well they are supposed tell him that he’s doing a great job. They want to keep their spots.
Oh I forgot, and get them pregnant.
Nah!
Know*
Lightfoot and Preckwinkle mandated and force the shots, not Snelling. It’s that simple. At that point he was not a top police brass in any position to make any of those decisions which no brass made because the mayor and Preckwinkle made them. Did he and others do the administrative work yes but if he didn’t do it they would have assigned someone underlings are assigned the task and do it. You don’t know Snelling if you said he proudly stripped you He carried out orders like every other officer or exempt. Trust me he didn’t receive any satisfaction doing that job
I'm confused. First you say he has your vote, then you go on to deride him.
My first reaction is that Snelling should learn to use standard, educated English if he wants to run for mayor. You "get some rest", you don't "find some rest". But then again, that didn't stop the current mayor.
Maybe Snelling could become mayor, and enact an ordinance that all gang members must wear crown caps while doing robberies, carjackings, shootings, and murders.
That would surely make everything better.
Don't cheat yourself, treat yourself
The end of merit promotions needs to happen now. And no more subject matter experts within the dept. I asked NOBLE for a copy of the last promotional test and they said no. Then I asked Riccio and he said no too. As Eddie Johnson's subordinates used to say, who do I have to blow to get promoted.
Can’t we switch to AI politicians? Can’t do any worse than humans.
Still have no 1st deputy and his pick for chief of patrol was terrible. So what policy or changes has he made to take credit for the marginal dip in murders? He's the first one to go when cone heads im black and have a black wife speech is told once too many.
Can we just once make the Sup someone who got promoted by score, and no cheating like NOBLE, and also actually worked the street. That would be a refreshing change.
One year of NOTHING
A day without push-ups is like a day without sunshine
Let’s start with he’s consciously allowing Chief Talley to run the BIA into the ground. She has ordered several arrests of officers and each have been dismissed. She recently screwed up and ordered the arrest of a Deputy Chief without a victim to testify in the case. It’s seems that everyone else in the department except Chief Talley know that we cannot sign complaint on behalf of a victim for misdemeanor damage.
Trust me he didn’t receive any satisfaction doing that job
——————————————————
But he still did it. He put his career advancement over the health and rights of those beneath him. Typical white shirt. Fuck him.

Yeah, we've heard that one before.
He's a POS like the other bosses who forced others for the stripping of the vaccine and portal. I was one of them too, 3 years later and we still have people sitting in callback, stripped with no pay and officers who can't return to CPD because of this lying sack of shit just because he "carried" the water for the department. Fuck him, he made his bed like any other boss, when you do something like that, you value your job over others.
I hope he fucking gets caught up for his fuckery and the merit bitch ass he is.
No copper will convince me otherwise how small biceps recruit groping/sleeping Larry is a good candidate for anything outside of the CPD gym and if you think he's a COPS cop, you deserve every God awful suffering and chance of being stripped/fired/suspended/sued when "he tells you" why.
I've never seen a double comma before.
I believe you meant he has not earned your vote. When using voice make sure to double check what you wrote.
Speaking of White Sox, how close are we to solving the shooting?
That’s because they’re letting Waller run things. Almost none of the promotions Waller made as interim have been touched. Waller needs to go, he sticks his beak in everything because he reports back to Da hall. All he does is promote inept, incompetent, and corrupt M/F’s who most should be fired or in prison. Did his gurl Aja come back to work after hitting the medical when she was told she would have to get deployed to the field? If you want to correct the nosedive they must get rid of Waller and his noble cabal. Larry needs to put his big boy pants on and tell da mayor he’s good and he can tell Waller to kick rocks. What exactly has he done to deserve a pension and now a salary - most of what he’s collected while he’s been home for “health reasons”. Enough of the taxpayers $ going to the clouted. 330K a year for what? He can barely read and write…
No 1st because they’re paying Waller with that budget. Once Waller’s gone Larry will move Chief of Patrol Hein into that spot and Mike Barz is working his treachery and backstabbing hard to take the Chief of Patrol’s spot. Can’t do that while working a second PT gig though, or can ya? Hmmm….
The Superintendent told the media that morale has gotten better, but last I checked officers come here almost everyday complaining about particular bosses and begging for command changes.
Snelling is a master as manipulating his own success. He's done well because, well, he's really done nothing. He's leery to promote to top positions unless he's sure the person won't have any possibility to outshine him. His press responses are couched to make him look perfectly neutral. He says what he needs to appease everyone who is listening. In other words, he makes a perfect politician...but a mediocre leader.
I think the post meant to say, He does not have my vote.”
snelling is a dickweed hahahahaha
He proudly stripped me and other officers for standing up for our rights, and he received a promotion right behind stripping us. He immediately went from Deputy Chief to Chief of Counter terrorism. He was the main exempt on the line giving orders to strip officers. Obviously, you don’t know him very well, because if you did you’d know that he has an issue with respecting female officers outside of the bed, and he has long lasting vendettas against officers he dislike. Besides, he made a baby in the academy with a recruit. He’s certainly not the caring savior of the CPD as he’s trying to portray to the media.
Snelling is all about self. He’s planning his next move and trying to find rest. Maybe he’ll go over to the feds after conehead serves his one term.
Described him to a T.
A master manipulator uses others to get their own needs met, sounds familiar?
Interesting, since it was Guidace and Waller who made that happen not conehead.
Waller is only here to promote the last of he and EJ’s friends. He couldn’t care less about this department. He’s actually stagnating to growth of the department. But on the other hand and with a few exceptions, they’ve always made the 1st a White guy. They need brains and a fall guy to actually run this department. Heins you’re up next bud.
“Besides, he made a baby in the academy with a recruit.”
After paying for child support his check is less than a commander’s. Still not bad though.
Well when you are the corrupt BIA Chief you can do whatever you want including damage to private property, it just won’t go over well in court. But you’re absolutely right on this one.
He won’t get the votes.
Right, like a contract. Where's the rest of our contract? Why are we still working off a contract that expired in 2017?
Well there should be some movement soon.
McCrudden dropped papers he’s done next month
Shemash was a lateral to Street Dep. yesterday
Nieves is stripped
I knew Aja was going to hit the medical to dodged deployment. Aja is a medical abuser waiting to get meritoriously promoted. She’s close with Ben and Waller’s former secretary, Michelle Cook. She’s also Sgt. T. Richardson’s wife, and he’s close with the supe.. I was almost certain that she was going to be in the last sergeant’s class while the rest of us hardworking P.O’s get screwed and deployed.
+1
"You can only do not enough pushups, but you cant do too many....?
Wait what lol he does drugs ?tell me more
