Suicide

We read in the comments of the "Define Sympathy" post of a recent officer DUI that seems to have ended in the officer's suicide. We've been able to locate some details but we won't be publishing them. We would ask that readers/commentators do the same. We don't need to be airing any blame, spreading any rumors, etc. The stories will be told over beers in taverns tonight, no need to shout it to the world.

An entertaining game to play

How long after the feds announce that a subject is NOT the focus of an investigation, is that person suddenly paraded before a bunch of cameras and indicted in court? It happened to george ryan - US Attorney announces ryan is NOT the subject of an ongoing investigation into secretary of state bribes-for-licenses and BAM! Two years later, he's a one term governor hopefully on his way to live out his remaining years in the pen.

Everyone here who wants to see someone with the last name of "daley" in prison, the smarter money bet is on his first name being "john" for the moment. The sun-times reports that the feds have said daley (john) is NOT the subject of any on going investigations, but his name has come up in a number of interviews. Daley (john) refuses to say if he has been "interviewed" by the feds.

Our theory? As "hired truck" people were "encouraged" to buy trucking insurance from daley (john) and contributed to the 11th ward political organizations to get city work, someone has daley (john) on audio or video or paper. The feds hauled daley (rich) in to further nail down daley (john) to his story. Maybe the feds will use their exapnded task force to root around in cook county government as well.

Let the countdown begin!

Define Sympathy

A word in the dictionary between shit and syphilis.

What are we supposed to feel in situation like this? (Trib article here; Times article here) We feel sorry for their families that have to go through emergency room visits, rehab, and even funerals, but all of these goofs made a (bad) decision to put poison in their bodies. We just hope that they all have adequate insurance coverage so we (and you and other taxpayers) don't have to pay for their bad choices.

Gilligan is dead and other Quick Hits

For a Wednesday morning:

• The world mourns the death of the actor Bob Denver. Sun-times coverage here; Tribune here (registration required); Channel 5 here. Only Ginger, Mary Ann and the Professor are still around.
• CPD in the Big Easy - Channel 7 (text and video); Channel 2
• Court appointed "monitor" has determined that the City has been circumventing the ban on political hiring for some time now. Tell us something we don't know. Ladies and Gentlemen - our new superhero - Master of the Obvious! Trib article here; Times here.
  
• And here is a lovely article that touches our hearts (registration required). Seems a gentleman went on an online sherrif's registered sex offender database, located two offenders, went to their homes, and killed them. Bravo! We knew those databases would come in handy someday. We don't want to hear any liberal claptrap about how the molesters "paid their debt to society" and shouldn't have to live in fear. Blah blah blah bullshit. These scumbags took advantage of the most vulnerable members of society and, in our humble opinion, NO sentence could be too long, NO torture could be too severe and NO punishment could be too harsh.

Open thread

Yes, we've been posting A LOT about New Orleans. Maybe even more than a lot. But we warned you when we started this blog that politics was a passion of ours, and we follow politics very VERY closely. This is politics. And as the mayor hasn't been indicted yet, local politics seems scarce. Besides, the ads did say something about "a healthy interest in the world at large."

Anyway, we shall take a short break from politics and instead post this open thread for people to rant on. Go for it.

The truth comes out - slowly

• When you see a burglar breaking into your neighbor's garage, you don't call the FBI to come and arrest the asshole. You call CPD (or shoot him yourself).
• When the sewer backs up or the water main breaks, you don't call the Army Corp of Engineers to come and fix it. You call Streets and San (or the aldercreature does).
• A giant car-eating pothole appears on the Dan Ryan. The trucks that arrive have the IDOT logo, not the seal of the United States government.
  

LOCAL and STATE authorities handle these problems. Disaster relief works the same way. The FEDS operate from the TOP DOWN, not the BOTTOM UP. Even if every stockpile of water, food and fuel was stacked up and ready to go, FEMA doesn't have trucks parked in every state waiting to distribute aid. That is a LOCAL function. The FEDS deliver massive quantities of supplies to prepositioned depots, usually airports, and the LOCAL authorities arrange distribution. It is assumed that the local authorities will have the buses and trucks fueled up and ready to go, not parked in flood prone parking lots. And yes, the Federal response was slow. It always has been. When has it ever been otherwise? Bush has admitted it was slower than he would have liked, but again, you don't hire the federal government to do things rapidly. That's why private industry always works better, cheaper, and faster.

And the final word (maybe) that we'll say about New Orleans is this (from NOLA.com):

• "Gov. Kathleen Blanco, standing beside the mayor (Nagin) at a news conference, said President Bush called and personally appealed for a mandatory evacuation for the low-lying city, which is prone to flooding." (emphasis added)
  

The date of this article? 28 August 2005, over 24 hours BEFORE Katrina hit! Or how about this one:

• City, state and federal emergency officials are preparing to give the poorest of New Orleans' poor a historically blunt message: In the event of a major hurricane, you're on your own. In scripted appearances being recorded now, officials such as Mayor Ray Nagin, local Red Cross Executive Director Kay Wilkins and City Council President Oliver Thomas drive home the word that the city does not have the resources to move out of harm's way an estimated 134,000 people without transportation. (emphasis added)

The date of this article? 24 JULY 2005, over 35 DAYS BEFORE Katrina hit. They never even got the DVD done before hurricane season.

The feds were slow, big deal. The FEMA guidelines call for LOCAL infrastructure to have 3 days food, water, plumbing and fuel ON HAND because the Feds know how slow they are. The people screwing the pooch hardest here are the mayor of New Orleans, the Governor of Louisiana and the local infrastructure. They are complicit in the deaths of countless thousands. End of story.

Merit packages delayed

The Meritorious Sergeant letters have been delayed at least seven days. By our calculations, the 06 September due date (supporting paperwork by 07 Sept) becomes 13 September, supporting paperwork immediately thereafter. Figure 2 to 3 weeks for the Merit Board to meet means a mid-October start date. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but this IS the city that works.

Is it just us or ...

... does this seem a little inappropriate, given the present circumstances?

• NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 4 - A day after two police suicides and the abrupt resignations or desertions of up to 200 police officers, defiant city officials on Sunday began offering five-day vacations - and even trips to Las Vegas - to the police, firefighters and city emergency workers and their families.

Read the whole article here. Now don't get us wrong, we're all for rewarding public safety officers for the job we do. Reward us LAVISHLY. You won't hear a word of complaint from us. However, this doesn't seem the time or place to be offering this. There are hundreds of thousands who have lost everything, thousands of bodies to be recovered, clean up to be undertaken and who knows how many crimes to be solved (yes, crimes to be solved - laws were broken - see the videos.) Mayor nagin claims that his people are exhausted and "traumatized."

No shit, your honor. That's what happens during a disaster.

But with the National Guard on scene along with the 4th Infantry Division and the 82nd Airborne, the mayor figures his guys are due for a break. All well and good, have them stand down for a 24 or 48 hour period. Help them contact relatives to check on families or let them get some sleep or have a few beers or whatever. But it doesn't send any type of message to the other 450,000 people from New Orleans or the other millions of people up and down the gulf coast that New Orleans is giving away 5 day trips to people who are supposed to be on call in case of a disaster.

And best of all, the mayor asked FEMA to pay for all these trips, but they turned him down flat. Good for FEMA. However, the question remains - how is New Orleans going to pay for these trips? They have no income as sales taxes are non existent and payment of property taxes will be rightly declined on the basis that property is unusable/unavailable. Insurance settlements are months or years away and most municipalities are self insured anyway. Local governments can't just print money. This is just more bad decision making all around by the local authorities.

Open thread for the holiday people. See you tomorrow unless something else breaks loose. (hat tip to Michelle Malkin for the story)

Just when you thought it couldn't get worse

Guess who shows up for dinner? Big Salute to AllahPundit who risked life, limb, and close encounters with King Kong, Mothra and other radioactive monsters just to take this photo.

UPDATE: Just for shits and giggles, we're going to re-attribute this photo to retired PO Lester Rumowski. Lester had retired to New Orleans, but at last report, his property was under 13 feet of water. Lester has been contacted and was headed back to the windy city. Godspeed Lester, glad you're OK.

Pot, this is Kettle; Kettle, meet Pot

Evidently, chicago aldercreatures are willing to cede all disaster planning and budgetary concerns to the Federal Government. We for one, wouldn't mind this at all as it would be magnitudes LESS corrupt than chicago already is. But watching local numbskulls bobby rush, ed smith, danny davis and of course, jesse sr take the Bush administration to task for the Fed's slow response is highly humorous. We refer you to the postings we've put up for the last few days outlining exactly why LOCAL authorities are to blame. Now comes word that almost a year ago to the day, New Orleans KNEW it couldn't evacuate the city when they tried to during Hurricane Ivan. A full year, and no improvements to the "evacuation plan" were implemented (read the year ago report here). Galveston, Texas had every bus it could get fueled and on standby in case Katrina moved west. Why didn't New Orleans? Three words: Mayor Ray Nagin. Three other words: Gross Criminal Negligence. Yet jesse, danny, ed and bobby continue to give mayor nagin a free pass because it makes more political sense for them to blame Bush and "racism."

Speaking of racism, where is the widespread outrage over aldercreature emma "half" witts comment blaming "an enormous amount of Latinos residing in the 37th Ward" for an increased amount of trash and rodents in the ward? We know we are tempting some of our readers baser instincts regarding certain races and the cleanliness of certain neighborhoods, but we think we are entitled to ask, "What the F$%^?" You can bet that if ed burke or burton natarus said this about englewood or altgeld gardens, they'd be drawn, quartered, tarred, feathered, and ridden out of town on a rail. Then the pieces would be burned, stomped, spat on and lord knows what else while the lakefront liberals would be apologizing for the next 30 years.

If we were in the HDO (which we might be - we've got to check our cards), or a hispanic state representative's organization with an eye on running for mayor (which we aren't), we would be hammering this double standard. It would give the hispanics something to rally around, it would attract disaffected daley white votes, and it would fracture the black base as more and more middle class blacks get fed up with the endless grandstanding and race baiting. But then, we aren't running for office.

WARNING: Keep the debate civil. We made our point without resorting to name calling or bad language. Do the same. This is a PUBLIC BOARD.

RIP William Rehnquist

A giant among justices has passed. At a time like this, one would hope that everyone remembers that Rehnquist has a grieving family who loved him and coworkers who, even if they disagreed with him, at least respected him as a man who did his job, showed up into his 80's, and generally did what he was expected to do.

But no. The Left cannot wait to tar and feather his legacy. Alan Dershowitz calls Rehnquist a "“Republicn thug"” less than two hours after the death announcement. Dershowitz is such a scumbag. The democratic underground website blames ... KARL ROVE! for the timing of Rehnquist's death and suggests democrats show up and the funeral and spit on his coffin. Classy. And more will pop up as everyone wakes up this Sunday morning. What can you expect from the party of ted kennedy, howard dean and harry reid? Further marginalization for the democratic party as they push the moderates rightward.

We've said before that a healthy political process needs at least TWO viable parties. It's just darkly amusing that the people who are pushing us toward one party rule are the democrats, not the republicans.

Burying the "Blame Bush" rhetoric

Just to put a final nail in the "Blame Bush" coffin, the Louisiana National Guard is an arm of the STATE government and are mobilized by the governor. The Feds supply them with most of their equipment in case they are called up for national service, but for "internal" emergencies (i.e. hurricanes) the GOVERNOR MUST ASK the Feds for assistance. The Feds cannot unilaterally "invade" a sovereign state. Only once in history has a sitting president ever federalized state troops in peacetime - Eisenhower did it to enforce the court decree to desegregate Arkansas schools. Can you imagine the uproar from the left if Bush took control of the Louisiana National Guard (a state run by democrats since the Reconstruction) and sent them into New Orleans (the bluest of blue cities)? They'd say he was a grandstanding glory hog trying to steal a "Giuliani moment" from the local mayor and governor.

So Bush stayed out of their way. The mayor let over 300 buses sit idle though he had 48 hours to evacuate. The mayor transported tens of thousands of poor citizens to the Superdome and Convention Center, with no water, no food, no fuel, inadequate plumbing and no way to get them out should the worst occur (which in accordance with Murphy's Law, it did). Now comes word that the pumps used to keep the water out of New Orleans had been failing for YEARS, the city failed to maintain them and didn't replace them as they failed. Heavy rains were beginning to cause minor levee failures all over the city and still the mayor did nothing. And when Katrina hit, the mayor was hiding in Baton Rouge. Kind of hard to be Giuliani when you aren't even in the city.

The governor also bears alot of blame for this. She had Guard Units stationed 30 miles from New Orleans. Not a bad place, but she had no eyes or ears in the city. The levee breaks were reported by news media helicopters, not Guard choppers. She couldn't have the Guard react fast enough. She only directed a formal request for military help on Thursday 01 September. Her initial request didn't even cover military aid - just jobs, money and housing assistance. FEMA was NEVER approached by Louisiana authorities with any sort of disaster plan. IT DIDN'T EXIST! And why wasn't the Guard delivering food and water as soon as the rain and wind died down? Because it WASN'T THERE! No stockpiles of any supplies on hand anywhere. This is Bush's fault how?

The 4th Infantry Division is now active in New Orleans. Supply convoys are getting to New Orleans because FEMA managed (in 48 hours no less) to scrounge up 475 buses from neighboring states and municipalities while the mayor's 364 school buses drowned. The only reason ANY relief is getting to the Big Easy is BECAUSE of George Bush and FEMA and the US Military. You watch. As the situation calms down and cooler heads prevail, the whole "blame Bush" thing will turn out to be complete BS, especially as more documents like the one's cited above become uncovered. Ted Koppel is actually asking hardball questions of local democrats who can't answer his questions! The one's screaming the loudest are going to be the one's who bear the most blame.

Proof of Bush Perfidy! (Open thread)

Bush slashed the Tires on These Buses so the Mayor of New Orleans Couldn't Use Them to Evacuate Black People. Bush invades other countries for oil (and then forgets to take it). Bush kills spotted owls, which are vital to our survival as a species. Bush pokes holes in the ozone. Bush is personally responsible for warm weather. Bush creates hurricanes. Bush makes imaginary black people eat dead bodies without even giving them side dishes. Bush was behind the grassy knoll. Bush aggravates your hemorrhoids. Bush knocked down the levees so Halliburton could rebuild them. Bush invented male pattern baldness and stretch marks. Bush is Hitler's mother. Bush puts arsenic in our water. Bush has unsafe sex with aliens at Area 51. Bush had the audacity to wear a flight suit. Bush eats babies. Bush exercises too damn much. Bush hooked his daughters on Jell-O shots. Bush invaded the body of a dog and told David Berkowitz to shoot people screwing in parked cars. Then he tortured the dog to see if it had any oil for him to take.

Go read HogOnIce.com from whom we "borrowed" this picture and commentary. For a lawyer in Florida, he is one funny son of a gun.

Shoveling BS

Big posting - but worth a read

The professional race baiters have started to come out of the woodwork questioning whether the slow federal response to New Orleans is because ::gasp:: New Orleans is 67% black. Somebody, please, shut these people up. And the "Blame Bush" crowd? Let's destroy the BS coming out of the left side of the political spectrum one at a time, ok?

• The "underfunded levee construction" theory. Complete BS as it turns out. Read the Tribune article here; Michelle Malkin debunks numerous Republican bashings, linking to dozens of articles showing how Louisiana democrats shorted New Orleans flood control. THIS WAS A COMPLETELY FORESEEABLE EVENT AND HAS BEEN EXPECTED FOR DECADES. Flood control is a municipal function and, if necessary, the state may pitch in. Of course, these are all democrats in Louisiana, so it must be Bush's fault. Read HogOnIce for his take on this situation.
  
• Federal relief is slow because New Orleans is a "black" city. Gateway Pundit takes on the master race baiter himself, Jesse Jackson, who arrived in New Orleans after spending a week with dictators Chavez and Castro. Jesse claims that (surprise) blacks are being shut out managerial positions in the relief efforts. Firstly, if blacks are being shut out of these positions, its a local problem. Local government was first on the scene and first in charge. The federal effort is just swinging into action and the general in charge of the effort covering THREE STATES, is (wait for it) Black! Like so much of what comes out of Jesse's mouth, his story is complete horse shit again.
• Bush and the Governor of Mississippi are to blame for "global warming" which supercharged Katrina and wrecked the gulf states. More BS. Governors don't vote to ratify treaties. And as any intelligent person knows, bill clinton sent the Kyoto treaty to the senate in 1997 where it lost 95-0. NINETY-FIVE TO ZERO! How many democrats voted for the bill in 1997? Oh yeah. ZERO! Kyoto will not pass in this country when we would be the only economy wrecked by it. Even democrats aren't that stupid. Here's a link to debunk the global warming theories.
• The federal government hasn't provided buses to evacuate poor residents. Even before Katrina hit, the mayor of New Orleans knew there were poor folks who couldn't get out. So did he use any of these? (go see the picture). Oops. 364 buses in New Orleans that could have moved over 20,000 people PER TRIP to safer ground. (thanks to Billhobbs.com for picture and link). Even an hour or two out of New Orleans means 9 round trips in 36 hours - DO THE MATH! But transit buses were used to move people TO the Superdome instead - the scene of at least 4 murders, two suicides and countless rapes while these buses sat idle and are now useless.
• The Federal government's response is slow. Duh. Bush admitted as much. If you want something done efficiently, you certainly don't hire the government to do it. Government is slow, full of red tape and only hires the lowest bidder. If anyone wanted it to move quicker, they would have held evacuation drills and mass destruction practices. Governments don't like to hold those to often because they (a) only expose how inefficient and ill prepared they are and (b) keep citizens from doing things that actually matter, like doing their jobs and keeping the economy moving forward. You can't shut down a city the size of New Orleans to practice evacuating it. You'd have to shut down highways and airports and pull buses out of circulation and doctors out of emergency rooms where there are real cases to be treated - it's impossible.
• And to top it all off, this 64 year old black writer, says the remaining residents of New Orleans have begun eating their dead (hat tip to HogOnIce again). No attribution. No eyewitnesses. No independent verification. Nada. Zip. Zilch. Just anything to bash Bush.
  

Maybe the left ought to shut up, grab some shovels and use them to help clean up the mess instead of slinging bulls@#$.

FEAR the POWER of OUR BLOG!!

Would you look at this? We post a little article poking fun at the City and the Department not sending anyone to help out in New Orleans after a large portion of their police department resigned and right afterwards, they're asking for applicants and resumes for coppers wanting to go south. We're betting that the mayor or his people opened the papers this morning and discovered that the suburbs were sending all sorts of stuff and by golly, they weren't going to be shown up by a bunch of suburban departments! Now it looks like they might be sending a sizable force along with all sorts of heavy weapons and equipment.

And we are going to shamelessly take credit (along with our readers and commentators) for suggesting they do it. Way to go people!

Aid for New Orleans?

Not that we are trying to tell anyone how to do their jobs, nor are we looking to give the mayor and the brass anything that might lead to good publicity, but is anyone looking to send a couple of dozen coppers down to the "Big Easy" to maybe, I dunno, help restore order? We sent dozens of coppers ON CITY TIME to NYC following 9/11. This is going to turn out a bit worse in terms of property damage. The cops have NO radios, NO cars, and NO jail space to stick prisoners. Can't the mayor hustle up a few "Hired Trucks" to send south for cleanup? Maybe a couple of recently retired pool cars? The City Colleges are offering refugees the chance to "audit" classes in order to maintain their academic credentials and the police department can't afford to send some guys down to help out? Of course, one could draw the conclusion that we are so short handed and equipment bereft that we just CAN'T do it.

Situational awareness (and 15,000 hits)

READ THIS

You may have noticed our naughty language post slightly below this one. We meant every word of it. For those of you unaware, some small brained individual posted the same half assed comment in three or four threads. We deleted them and let fly with both barrels. Experience tells us that sometimes it takes a slap along side a fool's head to get their attention (haha). Here's exactly the reason why:

If you go over to medialine.com and do a search on a subject calling himself "fearmonger" he claims he found the racial crap on our blog without telling how he found it or by whom it was written. A second (smarter) individual points out that is wasn't the Moderator posting it, but an anonymous commentator. Another individual asks "what do you expect from fearmonger?" So evidently, "fearmonger" has a reputation as a loose cannon. Judging by the time stamps on the messages here and there, it looks an awful lot like "fearmonger" may have posted his BS in our threads anonymously, then run over to medialine.com in an attempt to bring a bunch of unwanted attention back here. He labels himself a TV reporter with an interest in crime and the courts so we just know he wouldn't sell half baked truths to the general public in hopes of creating a story, would he?

This just reinforces the message that this is a PUBLIC board people. Strangers wander in all the time and some would love to make trouble for cops. If you want to make a fool of yourself, go do it on your own time and on your own site. Nothing requires you to hang out here. Of course, the fact that we have managed to generate a rather nice sized audience (we hit 15,000 visitors yesterday - THANK YOU!) probably encourages the tiny brains to attempt to show off their not-so-towering intellects. Every idiot loves a crowd.

But we didn't set up this board for the idiots - we set it up for coppers. And real coppers KNOW what's appropriate in PUBLIC and what's appropriate whispered in a tavern over drinks with your team, your watch or cops YOU TRUST. Yes, this is a tempting forum. But although we've made every effort to keep it anonymous, a halfway decent hacker and a marginally competent lawyer could make a very easy run at stripping away the anonymity, especially in Cook County and Chicago where lawyers and politicians run hand-in-hand through the daisies. Beware.

Rally for the Mayor!

The President and Chairperson of the MMFD (Media Mouthpieces for Daley) Fran Speilman writes today about a lady who is organizing a support rally for the embattled mayor. No date, time or location of the rally have been announced, but we hear there are a couple of really nice closets available in the 11th Ward Office. If the supporters are unable to guarantee a minimum head count to fill the closet, we have also heard of some lovely 8x10 cells in a place called "Club Fed."

John "Quarters" Boyle is rumored to be checking tickets at the door for the next 7 years.

Timing is everything

Here's the post we were going to put up first thing after dinner this evening:

• Has anyone else noticed that the minute, and we mean the EXACT MINUTE, that rev. meeks went public with his side of the "racial profiling" allegations, it dropped off of everyone's radar. DROPPED. Like a lead freaking balloon in zero gravity. If it disappeared any faster, it might have created a whirlpool of destruction in the space-time continuum from which even light could not escape. Wow. You think maybe it was an overhyped BS allegation to begin with? Hmmmmm.

That is the problem you run into sometimes while blogging: you hold back a story or two so you have something for the slow days, and you get blindsided when they actually resolve the case you wrote about. Damn it.

Sergeant cleared. End of story. NO PROFILING!!!

UPDATE: If we were this sergeant, we would be suing the shit out of everyone involved. The Chicago Police Department brass and the City administration hung this man out to dry and aided and abetted the media in what can only be called a lynching. He was held up to ridicule, had his judgment questioned, was accused of racial profiling, convicted by BOSSES in the media before a hearing had EVEN BEEN CONDUCTED and basically made a whipping boy for behavior that hasn't been tolerated on this department for a decade or more. We are sure that this "incident" has cost this sergeant quite a bit of emotional stress. We could certainly name the first three defendants on the slander, libel and infliction of emotional distress lawsuits. We hope he can find a judge who will rule that as the defendants were acting outside of the scope of their official capacities, THEY are on the hook for damages and not the taxpayers. At the very least, he might settle for a lieutenant's slot and maybe even a gold star. Remember, they gave one to someone who wore a wire.
