Two Plus Two Equals....
....five?
This popped up in the comment section:
- What about the millions going to these so called violence interrupters? Who are they reporting too? Where is the transparency with them with progress? Do they have to hand in paperwork to someone in the Mayors office? This is a complete handout program to worthless organizations that contribute nothing to helping.
We still meet up with co-workers, active and retired. And we talk about things....changes, rumors, strange decisions, politics. They're smart people, and we consider ourselves reasonably intelligent and well read. So when we put together certain things, we wonder what's going on behind the scenes:
- ShotSpotter goes under after a lengthy City Council battle;
- a friend says a couple of low level command staff met with some HQ type command staff who said that in additional to the regular aldermanic notifications that go out after shootings, a number of pilot districts will be making a "violence interrupter" notification will be made;
- the comment at the top of this post appears along with a second one asking essentially the same thing.
So what's up? Conehead suddenly has a few million bucks from what was spent on ShotSpotter and certain "progressive" aldercreatures need money to grease the skids for the violence interrupters that they're touting as an alternative to police....who they want to disband anyway.
Something strange is afoot, it costs millions, and the only thing adding up is our property tax bills.

There are 100 million reasons but just for the migrants and workers everyone gets a raise. Except fire police citizens teachers are good though. Shit where’s the Groot
No money for the test company ???
Answer: "Kickback 101"
The violence interruptors are nothing more than a political pay group.

Precisely my dear Watson...

These motherf$%rs will get theirs in due time.
What about drones? Are we getting more drones?
OT: Re: wasting millions on the "connected".
In SCC's post about POD cameras I was surprised to read about the city of Chicago's Office of Public Safety Administration. Perhaps I was in a trance for near 31 years on the CFD, many of those as a Battalion Chief (highest a union member can achieve through "competitive testing") as I was never aware of that unit of city gov't!!
What is the cost of this extraneous haven for nepotistic bureaucrats? Where does one apply for a position at OPSA?
As always, NOT THEIR MONEY!!!
The more BS I see going on in our political circle of state county city, I can’t wait to leave this cesspool.
Chicago's very own "non-profit" police force will be up and running very soon. I'm sure some of the "interrupters" will carry weapons depending on where they will be "interrupting" violence in the city. Pretty soon, they will start taking people into custody to further interrupt violence. They will only answer to whomever funds the outfit. I'm sure they will have uniforms and vehicles. The Mayor's very own secret police force (or not so secret?). Communists don't change thier play book.
Someone is getting rich over the misery and death that we see in the streets. Who? Maybe we need to start following the money.
How did 020 end up with pee wee merit Lt MV?
Unless things have changed the funds for ShotSpotter came from grants received by OEMC and said grants had to be used for law enforcement technology and nothing else.
But remember millions of our tax dollars are funneled back via the "manila envelopes," to the elected do nothing overpaid aldercreatures its the Chicago way! Graft-greed-corruption a complete cornucopia of people that should be prosecuted and in prison democrats so many liars!
Lardy needs to stop the notifications to gang bangers. Let city hall forward the good news.
Violence Interropters will be responding to all secure scenes. Copa will be responding to all pointing incidents.
Just look at how city is treating homeowners at Gompers park? They are upset about homeless/displaced persons living in tents at the park? They have a meeting last night about situation. But the aldermen starts talking about a 5 year plan? And the citizens started to get up and leave meeting saying it all lip service! Wake up people this is a Democratic run city and what you want has nothing to do with what city hall or Governor Prickzer wants. So just live with homeless in the park? See what you voted into office?
Ya, and the same dumb mfer's put that alderasshole in and will still pull the D lever come election time. Fuck them all
OT
Why is the 2nd W 019 Lt M Laurich being allowed to micro manage 1st W supervisors and officers?
Bitch from under some shit-stained rock is blaming the 5-8 cars on 1st W for all the burglaries and robberies in the district.
Hey bitch, your PO bf not screwing your fatass anymore? Burglaries and robberies is a citywide problem made by woke policies.
You will never be a commander, now go tend to your whiny 2nd W dogs who are so traumatized by a few burglary reports!
And the city is crying poor about moving the homeless out of Gompers Park. Hundreds of millions spent of illegal aliens and violence interrupters, and not one penny of tax payer money to clear out degenerate drug users camped in a park in a white neighborhood on the Northwest side. Conehead hates white people.
How about that infamous funeral home on the south side. The one that also did your taxes while you were alive.
Apparently after a shooting in Austin, the SDSC has to notify 2 violence interruptors: BUILD and INVC
A five year plan is good. Gives the neighbors plenty of time to move out of city.
Is five years the life expectancy of these homeless?
I have a thirty eight caliber violence interrupter.
Show us the data
It's called GOBBLEDYGOOK...
Reminds me of some of the programs that paid cash to Hoovler the Gangster Disciple Nation members by the city decades ago. That didn't end well either.
I retired and promptly got the fuck out of Chicago. Moved to the Free State of Texas. Find your own place. Unfortunately since taxpayers are fleeing Democrat states property values have climbed here and in other Free States like Tennessee, Florida and pretty much any Red State. Escape when you can. Get the fuck out when you get the chance...
They will just be 'clay pigeons' to be shot down at will by the gangsters...
All the Violence interupters do is pass messages and orders to their gangs.
Do now we notify convicted felons? I think the order prohibits any association with convicted felons.
Goodbye!
You were doing good until the last sentence. “you voted into office” are not the people who voted the asshats into office perhaps just like you didn’t. Or are you an asshat, too?
It was created by Lightfoot as a cost saving measure to consolidate administrative offices of Police, Fire, and OEMC.
I have a violence interrupter. It's a Remington 870.
Foreigners will replace the lot of you anyway. Lower pay, no pension.
How about some of the alter persons step up and start asking for accountability on what the VI's are doing with the massive funds they are receiving. Start with the pay structure from top to bottom. Where are they working and in what area with how many people on what shifts, vehicles and are they filtering the info back to the police on shootings and homicides. Maybe the mayor can cut his over populated guard personnel and bring in the VI's to protect him seeing as he thinks they are a great deterrent to crime. I can see that soon the illegal immigrants with be hired as safe passage workers to start the road to citizenship for votes.
The uniforms will be designed by Hugo Boss. They have a reich history of designing uniforms for politicians.
It's only fair the "gang interrupters" get paid by the city. They are the same organizations that paid for their local alderperson to get elected (probably the mayor too). The money goes around and around. There is a whole lotta money in unlicensed pharma sales.
the city has thousands on violence interrupters every day on the street, they're called beat cars, but the democRATic politicians and liberals no not want them to prevent crime because that would be racist, they think it's better to pay millions to a useless bunch of convicted felons to go out there and talk with their fellow gang bangers
Time to defund them f
"... help us continuing moving in the right direction with community safety ..." Is that some of "today's critical thinking?" She needs to sue the college of her education for malpractice and then close down the college.
It’s nothing more than race-based extortion.
The mob used to do something similar…
Repeatedly break out a bunch of windows on businesses, approach the businesses and offer “protection”, and after they begin paying you, you stop breaking their windows.
Create a problem, then offer to be the solution.
The black criminal element is doing the same. Drive up shootings and murders, then offer to help stop them “for a fee”.
It’s sickening that the city falls victim to this clear shakedown, but in Chicago we always just throw money at the squeaky wheels if it’s the right demographic. Especially with this mayor who is sympathetic to the issues caused by his favorite constituents.
Headquarters at 35/Michigan has been known as the “Public Safety Administration Headquarters” for years, after CFD moved into the building.
Certainly another layer of hiding people inside and unnecessary promotions in the name of “comprehensively streamlining” things.
Interrupting violence is racist!
Controversial Mayor Tiffany Henyard now facing eviction after allegedly living large on taxpayer dime but she will soon be the new cps president
GOODYEAR, AZ — Goodyear city leaders want to make sure they are on top of any potential crime that comes with a growing city.
Now, a new police chief is looking to tackle that challenge head-on.
Brian Issitt is the new chief of police at Goodyear Police Department. With over 20 years of experience with neighboring Phoenix Police, Issitt started from the bottom.
Kamala wins, Texas goes blue, where are you going next so we can forward your mail? Austin is as commie as it comes.
And how many Harris signs in the neighborhood?
Giving taxpayer money to Jeff Fort did not work out well. Why do the current politicians thing giving money go gang members now will work out any better?

Chicago parks close at 2300 hours. Why are these people still there.
Conehead is splashing money around on hoodrat pipe dreams like a drunken sailor on shore leave. This place even puts Dalton to shame.
She reminds me of Captain Kane. Power-tripping, OT scamming, just ask 1980V...
It has always been about the money.
It’ll just end up being a protection racket.
They will PUSH the Vote for the Dems...
The Lt's Keane (Retired pop/Active son) know all too well...
A couple million? Do a google search. I think Pritzker added about 50 million to these so called groups. And who runs the one that gets the most money?? Arnie Duncan, Obama pal. Chicago Cred. It’s animatedly embarrassing. Do they have to do some type of jumper to hand in, to confuse to justify? This is millions of tax payer money that no one seems to be questioning. Maybe we can get Marty Preib and the Contrarian to do some digging into this??
This is what I’m talking about. Disgusting. Who do they have to report too?? They want accountability from everyone except where the Democratic money is going.
Another female boss with a flame. Female bosses worse than men. Smashing P.O’s.
Do they get a bigger pension that you?
At least they're not traffic cones.
it's called buying votes,ghost payrolling to gangs connected to politicians
Amazing that IL cries poor when it is time to fix the roads, hire police or any of the things a functional state government should do but King Prickster can make 100 million appear without a single vote.
I doubt very much he used his money for this..
You could get that 100 mil in singles and set it on fire and it would accomplish more good than giving it to the "violence inserters".
