Back to the Basics

Suddenly, the head of the FOP remembers what made him so popular amongst the rank-and-file a few years ago, and decides to do what he should have been doing all along instead of picking fights with the people he actually works for:

• The head of the union representing Chicago’s front line police officers is blasting Mayor Brandon Johnson for calling law enforcement a “sickness” that he plans to “eradicate.” Also speaking out about the mayor’s comments, albeit in a more measured tone, is Cook County State’s Attorney Eileen O’Neill Burke.

  As CWBChicago first reported last Wednesday, Johnson erupted at a press conference, calling “jails and incarceration and law enforcement” a sickness that “has not led to safe communities,” and vowing to “eradicate” it.

  Fraternal Order of Police Lodge 7 President John Catanzara released a spicy YouTube video of his own on Friday, a video he recorded while standing in front of the mayor’s home, which is protected 24/7 by multiple CPD units.

  “Three squad cars blocking it, patrolling it, protecting it for him and his family,” Catanzara said. “Yet, he calls law enforcement a sickness. What a hypocrite. Piece of garbage.”

Careful....when someone was live blogging in front of the governor's mansion, the media was all a flutter that Porkulous was nervous, getting sweatier than usual, and stress eating. We're surprised there weren't reports of his security detail firing shots at innocent citizens walking by.

After this, Conehead is going to be on the verge of another nervous breakdown.
