Another Tool Going, Going....
The Community Commission for Public Safety and Accountability (CCPSA), the civilian panel responsible for overseeing the Chicago Police Department, is wrapping up a public comment period as it weighs major restrictions on the types of traffic stops CPD officers are allowed to make.
The group is taking public input through Monday but has already outlined a list of restrictions most of its members support. Among them: barring traffic stops for plates expired less than a year, improperly displayed or missing front license plates, improper rear license plate lighting, having a single non-functioning head-, tail-, or brake lights during daylight hours, and driving with a loud sound system.
A minority of CCPSA commissioners also support banning stops for failure to wear seat belts or failure to signal turns or lane changes. Some community members are pushing to go even further — calling for a ban on stops for tinted windows, among other minor violations.
Why? Because they believe traffic stops are disproportionately used against Black and Brown drivers, often as a pretext to look for guns or other contraband.
So the list of Rules and Laws that black and brown people don't have to follow - solely because they're black or brown - continues to expand.
No one on the CCPSA seems to be asking why black and brown people can't maintain their vehicles to be street legal after all that effort in Springfield writing and passing the Laws.
On the plus side, policing in Chicago just keeps getting that much easier.

The city puts these policies in place, handcuffing us further….and then invite the county police in to do all the things they don’t want us doing. Make it make sense
I only have a few years to go. I guess I’ll just close my eyes to Traffic violators to follow the policy. Nothing but bad bosses and bad policy.
Woefully should be added to our CPD patch and vehicles.
Because we can’t do our job that we are paid to do. Four people on my block told me they are moving within two years. One is packing now. None are city workers. The city leadership is destroying Chicago.
Well no problem, the crazy lefty loons say you can identify as anything you want. Presto Chango! Advise friends to say they identify as black. Tell them you had one of those DNA tests done and it said you be 1 percent or more of African ancestry.
A trip down Memory Lane…
Never Chase Policy
Citizens, you are on your own, regardless of the circumstances
“We're just letting citizens know, if you or your loved ones are kidnapped, raped, robbed, shot or murdered, the police won't be allowed pursue.”

FACK IT!!! Policing gets much easier and easier. Why bother risking your butts for these ungrateful police department. 25 years ago, things were different, we had bosses but now there are STUPIDVISORS. Traffic stops produced 80% to 90% of illegal things people possessed and those traffic violations were a great tool. I remember once I had a 5 car accident, it involved a Lesbian, a white guy, a black guy, an Asian guy and a somewhat fresh from Mexico guy. Now, stereo types are so damn true because the accident proved it once again. Who had a TVDL? The Mexican guy, who had license and insurance, the Lesbian and white guy, who had a suspended license, the black guy and who cause the accident, the Asian guy. See this is nothing a civilian will comprehend; this is an example hoe how police do their job. I still get a kick out of it when I tell the story. For those young officers, just watch each other's back and don't be a hero but if you necessary don't hesitate to put someone to sleep. Believe me, I know from experience I never hesitated.
Isn’t there a system in place for the redress of laws? Isn’t there a governing body that abolishes these laws? Who the fuck do these humps think they are?
I must be ahead of the curve with these people.
Don’t stop anyone for anything. Stop doing traffic stops. Fuck what the Chief of Patrol says, tell him to go out and make stops and do blue cards. If the city and Dept. go along with this silently, never make another stop again. Get your tickets at accident scenes and nowhere else. Traffic laws aren’t followed and scarcely enforced now, as it is, give them what they want. Keep a list of everything they can’t be stopped or ticketed for and follow along. Don’t register your car, fix lights etc. When in Rome do as the Romans.
If anyone does anything else than just handle their calls, render aid and complete a report they’re crazy. Do nothing, that’s what they want, give it to them and let them deal with the outcome.
Wow that is so true lol I haven’t signed out a mover book in over a decade. And forget about ANOV’S. It’s much easier to come to work when one doesn’t care. With just a shade over 20 years on its time to sit back and cruise to the finish line. Would rather get in trouble for doing nothing than being proactive and really getting fucked. Now if you’ll excuse me I have to get back to my real estate listings in other states.
A random constituted gaggle of people without any legal standing, or legal justification for doing so, demanding that the city, and its employees, ignore state statutes in violation of their oaths of office? I'm guessing there's still some lawsuits to be found in that quagmire somewhere.
Such a shame
This can only happen because there is no reduction in the revenues streaming in from the honest, taxpaying citizens, and no streams of revenue flow from the exempted from enforcement populations, only to them.
They are infiltrating the Department removing your enforcement power slowly in order to remove your power and authority in order to defund the police. More laws and ordinances to follow. The Marxist
candidate who just won the Democrat primary in NYC for Mayor has proposed these ideas if elected Mayor. A lot of New Yorkers and businesses have vowed to leave if it happens. Nobody in Chicago stops to think we are ahead of NYC as we already have a Marxist Mayor and some members of the City Council.
So as the majority of citizens in Shitcago are black and brown, statistically they would commit those violations the most. However, those demographics Commit a disproportionate amount of crime in Shitcago period. So this is just a get out of jail free card for black and brown people.
Why anyone does traffic in the first place baffles me. You are paid anyway.

I thought we enforced state and local laws enacted by people elected by the people? Was this group elected by the people to decide which laws we can enforce?
We also take an oath to the US Constitution? Will this be a problem, or is that something they can decide for us too?
I remember when I cared, o well, back to my paper job.
Retired in Texas…….
Perhaps…just maybe..if members of the fan clacking-EBT community would simply comport themselves in a proper manner when having contact during a traffic stop………
Or….get this…..have your whip in order….like get that cracked windshield fixed…or get your plates up to date….or have working break and head lights for the safety of you and others……
Naw….thats just too much to ask………
Have a nice day all…..
I can’t tell you the last time I saw a traffic stop in my district , or a patrol car come down my street. My taxes go up every year though
Traffic stops are 100% committed at traffic offenders.
Legalizing crime, a little at a time. Once they do this one, they'll be on to another. Remember, they got rid of stop and frisk too...
