A Good Idea But ...
Someone suggested that we need a little more positive spin on things here. Too much bitching and moaning about certain districts and the abilities of certain officers.
What a GREAT idea! However...
We couldn't keep people on subject when we tried to share a little joy during the White Sox run to the Series. Or when we posted about the ACLU and it deteriorated into a spelling bee. Or half a dozen other instances that occur on a daily basis. If we tried to do a "Best FTO" thread or a "Best All Around Copper" thread, it'd fall apart within 5 hours. Even the "Best Bosses" thread had it's share of rip jobs on the first day.
Trolling for positive compliments by naming districts and units would, in our mind, be tempting some of our readers to be less than charitable. Anyone have an idea on how to pull it off?

Put a bunch of cops in a room and see how many conversations are postitive. Won't happen...but the humor and stories are priceless.
screw that...
just kidding.
Honestly the only way you will force people to "play nice" would be to force registration with a confirmed email. This, of course, is a BAD idea- as it could be used to trace identities (although with enough time the IP could be used in some instances) and would at best lead to a chilling effect on the frank nature of the discussions that make this blog so much fun to read...
We could start the thread off by touting the exploits of Phillip J. Kline and his son, bald baby kline. Let the outing begin.
P-O-S-I-T-I-V-E sorry
i think you should start a thread for each district or unit, so all the complaints can be kept on those appropriate threads. then maybe we can keep to the topic of the thread that are being invaded with the complaints about the districts, bosses, etc.
read this another thread felt it was worth repeating:
S.C.C.
I originally posted this in the Eurabian string. Sorry for the repeat, but posting it again here seems apt.
As I review the various strings, I recognize that there are many bloggers eager to talk about the 009th District. Rather than see 009 related posts pop up in multiple strings, how about giving them their own.
In fact, there are probably bloggers from many districts (or even units) that would like to discuss their own issues and peculiarities. How about a "Unit of the Week" string devoted to a different district/unit each week. It may help contributors stay on topic.
... just a suggestion.
how about the biggest unit? ;P
give each district their own thread!!
whatever day of the month is, let it be that unit for the day (ex. Nov 08, 008 Nov 09, 009....)and so on untill every dist has had its day, then start with the units in numeric order from FOP book. 044, 045, 050 untill they are all done. this way everyone has a chance to bitch about their unit. I am sure we all want to hear stories from some of these units!! AND NO WASHINGTON DC STORIES PLEASE!!!
we've met the enemy, and it's us.
I believe that if there were a thread for all the numerous units it would need a lot of bandwidth. And bandwidth costs $$$$$
Anybody know?
What a bunch of crying bitches you all are!!! Where eles can you make $60,000, get 13 holidays, unlimited medical time off, and need an act of congress to get fired!!! And to get hired: all you need is 60 credits of community college electives. I wish some of you fuck ups would have know what it was like to work a real job before dropping out (or flunking out) of Malcom X College.
Lets start a new thread now for the districts and units.
Oh, it's gonna get negative - no question there. Such is the nature of police and, thus far, this blog.
After all, why should a district string be different from any other string? Currently, there is no district string, but that hasn't stopped negative banter about the 016th District in almost every string over the past month.
It can't be stopped. Perhaps, however, it can be confined to a fixed number of strings.
And, as always, we'll rely on your judgment in monitoring and censoring inappropriate posts. By all measures, you, S.C.C., seemingly, have been judicious thus far in such decisions.
Carry on.
Excuse me....I just farted.
I think that's what this Dept. wants in 008 and 016, any other districts like them. is this. We do the police work off duty. Property taxes ? Don't matter. Our mayor is white. Got's to kiss minority asses. Where's our city alderthings on this issue ? Probably some three way circle fuck with the f.o.p. and the mayor. If you p/o's in 008 or 016 get criticized by our good citizens for a slow response, tell them the true reason. Not enough police. Have them contact their alderthing. Be safe.
I think the guys and gals in 16 are the best in the city.
8:30 Stormfront is calling
You must work in 016 to say that bull shit. W O R T H L E S S is the correct term
you can bitch about the city the
command staff the bosses but look
at the rank and file members fellow
officers. we talk about being the
best law enforcement agency in the
world! my ass, CPD officers are a
bunch of sorry worthless fucking
mutts.I'm just he for the ride until the real deal calls me for
my final interview. yes THE F.B.I.
AND I WILL REMEBER THE DOGS IN THE
CPD JUST ABOUT EVERYONE OF YOU!!!!
16th District, what a joke, nothing but 200 pound bitches serving and protecting. The only decent collars are made by the off-duty po's, it's comical.
you can't make a dog the real police. but a jaggoff boss can
make the real police a dog.
It's not comical to me, especially when you live in the district and are taxed to death. And what do we get in return, the 200 pound ex-waitress who is now the police. Thanks fat-boy.
the problem, FTO program!
when i got on learned from
an old time FTO a KMA member.
now two year wonders training
like the blind leading the blind.
raise the FTO pay. get some old
timers interested somehow send out
an S.O.S. message.
Heard that the department wants to do away with Pay stubs. How will they do that? They will force you to get direct deposit, and email your stub. They will mandate Direct Deposit just like the educational requirments it will just have a dead-line for compliance.All members have an email address whether they are activated or not. ????.XXXX@chicagopolice.org then if you want a hard copy all you do is hit print.
No computer at home? you dont need one you have access to all kinds of computers city-wide. That will be there argument.
Guess their is no doubt that big brother truely is HERE

with the rumors.
What about the message on the email system at work that said that all emails for those under the rank of Sgt have been disabled unless they have their COs permission to use it in the course of their job duties?
what about, what if, whats what!
who fuckin cares. if you put
your whats into actions we
be living ain a safer city.

True that I was hired to be the
Police...... not bad for a reformed

Dear crying bitches Malcom X college
drop out/flunk out (6:41 PM)
Good points but you misspelled Malcolm
Thanks for playing better luck next test
At least there's "merit" promotions
Dear 9:30, I too applied to the F.B.I. but my application was rejected. Turns out they didn't want me because my parents were married.......
Want to name names? start by naming Policemen that stand up for other policemen. Who is the most "stand-up" guy in your district?
006 Lt. Dominic Rizzi stand up boss
I remember Rizzi as a seregant
chaulk #1 up for the good guys.
I knew Dominic Rizzi back in #010
when he was a P.O. that being about
15 years ago. His old man was one
of the original Captains back in
the late 70's, what a Great "boss".
#008 BIFF = JAGGOFF

Good luck in the FBI. Maybe you can get a papercut and get a medal for it you fucking pussy.
Time for some satire -
"God, this topic is boring. I'm going to have to cut back and only read this website 20 times per day!"
"To the 3:03am poster: fuck you, you fat piece of oily shit! Saw you getting lunch for Pitosik, you ass!"
"To the 5:18am poster: you prick! go back to unit 357 and tell Fld Lt.Smith to go flush a turd!"
"Tell the 5:22am poster to have the 4:57am poster call the medical section because the 5:22am poster is going to rip off the 4:57 poster's head and shit down his neck!"
"I know this isn't on topic but I just bought a new vest and was wondering if chilli stains can be removed? I heard that Kline uses a special stain treatment on his that we're all going to have to buy - it's G.O. 5-05 part b. Any one know?"
Phew!!! I feel much better, thanks.
LOL ...
Who the hell said 016 has best coppers in CPD?
Rizzi, the same a-hole sgt that was in 008? I feel bad for you if he is your #1 boss.
Heres some good news I just saw on television. A Sergeant in, I believe 002, rescued a women who had been carjacked and then stuffed in the trunk of her car. The thugs then rode around hitting ATM's trying to get money out of her account. The Sgt. see's them going the wrong way on a one way street, attempts to stop them at which time they bail out and flee. She's in the trunk, starts pounding on the interior, he hears her, opens the trunk and presto, there she is. She's convinced that they were going to kill her and if not for the Sgt. she would be dead. She refers to the sarge as her "Angel". Nice job, way to go Sarge! I know this story breaks with tradition here on this site in that I'm not attacking other Police Officers or whining about something, but I firgured some of you would like it and be proud.
rizzi good peeps. would never hurt a copper. just wants people to do their fucking jobs. if he rubbed you the wrong way, well, you were no doubt fucking up....or you're a do nothing....or maybe just a plain ol' dumb ass. which is it?
The location of carjacking was 45th and Woodlawn (021). The sgt. was Rich Rochowicz, tac sgt from 021. He's an excellent copper, aggressive and old school--takes no shit from the scumbags out there. It was on the news this morning. Excellent work.
Good luck in the FBI. If you are from a big city, I hope you are neither white nor male because you'll be eating those words as you return to you're beat car. If you do make it, have fun in your cubicle in North Dakota! Remember to pay extra attention in Quantico as you and the rest of the farm boys with accounting degrees are told how to run away and strand your injured partners as soon as shots are fired. The real police will be here in the big city fighting crime, you pencil pusher.
I'm sure Meeks will be on T.V. praising the white Sarge for his fine work in the community!
what about other patrolmen? The new breed are a little rough around the edges, but who in your district is "the man" when it comes to taking care of other coppers?

11/08/2005 09:50:33 AM "
Please define "taking care of". Are we talking lying on a witness statement for you? Giving a handjob to your partner in the car? What?
I thought Rochowizc is 021 tac, or at least was. He is good people, and it was good work. Hope they catch the mutts who did that.
uh, he is dumb-dumb, read 9:05
thanks for backin me up assjack. 8:21 has now authorized you to blow him as thanks for your correction.
well here you go to the copper in 025 asking why it took 1 1/2 for the what you call "pirssy little ass's" (crimelab) to get to the scene, is because they have to do stupid bullshit jobs like to carjacking lady in the trunk that is a et job and doesnt fit the criteria of the crimelab but every boss thinks they are more important then the other and cry for the crimelab
Why is it that we are so short on "Crime Lab" personel and equipment? Shouldn't a city of this size, with this many violent crimes on a daily basis have a better system in place for processing crime scenes? No offense intended to the officers who do that job, but shouldn't crime scene processing be made a much bigger priorty?
I've never had the Crime Lab respond in under an hour, and that really does make things tense on the street! There just doesn't seem to be anywhere near the proper staffing for that important position. I'd bet they'd get a lot more clear ups in the D-Unit with more and better trained crime scene processing personel, with the proper equipment!
Stay safe out there.
don't forget that the crime lab has to go in to inventory what they recover...
I think it is great that so many people watch CSI and think that we can do any of that shit! ha ha
Every homicide scene provides all the evidence they need, and leads to the arrest and conviction of the offender with a single pubic hair. ha ha
Meanwhile, in Chicago, coppers are kicking shell casing into the sewer so they don't have to sit on a crime scene their whole tour! ha ha
Lieutenant Dominic Rizzi for
President!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"of the United States of America"
Rizzi......Rocks
Curt Mullinex 020 what an idiot. He thinks hes everybodys boss. He hits you on the pdt asking you why your taking so long on your job. He makes me sick. Yet he is the biggest coward. How do goofs like this get on the job.
Rizzi is one hell of a leader
and great motivater
Go ask the guys in Area 4 about Rizzi...hope nothing bad ever happens. He'll be happy to scoot out the back door and leave you HANGING
Who is Curt Mullinex?
Hey 1:07, can you repeat that, this time in English?
Let me see if I got this right. 2 teams in the crimelab citywide to process jobs? You mean to tell me that don't even have one for each area? How about 4 teams then because we really don't need one for Area 3 or Central Control so why not 4 teams? That way the Areas that need the services of the Crimelab most,(Areas 1,2 4 and 5 ) won't have to wait long for the lab. On those RARE occasions when something does happen in A/3 or Central Control then somebody will have to wait for the Crimelab.Unfuckingbelieveable!
Hell he is a General Patton....
Serviced in Desert Storm and
Desert Shield, recieved 3 silver
stars!!!!! quite an achievement.
former CPD: SOG,Range instructor
old school homicide Detective.
105 Department Commendations.
a writer/author.
read his book, outstanding
the book is called "street walkers"
Of course i was talking about Rizzi
Thanks, Dom.
The most stand-up Boss on the job, no one can come close to Johnny "Big Time" Farrell.
I worked for Rizzi in 008 i personally think he sucked and was a lil jag bag. I think his brother the old CHA copper was the goods though Tom. He would have been an awesome Cpd boss. We got the wrong Rizzi folks!
06:38
what is a jag bag! you fucking
beat off. is it your gay slang?
Don't know this Rizzi guy, but looks like he got some serious cerdentials. He must have been around the block more than once.
STREET WALKERS, it was written by a chicago police officer? is that correct, that a cpd boss was the author. I tell you this read it in college, 2004 grad. new boots on the job. Outstanding "lawman" book would have never thought the incite of the depictions referred to the city of chicago.
OK lets just say Dominic has been there and done that!
never heard about the book
Because you probably are one of those non educated ass wipes with at least 60 credit hours that represent this department! (stupid)
Either Rizzi himself is on here or some drippy dick p.o. is in love with the boner!
To: 11/08/2005 01:07:51 PM
The crime lab did not process the lady in the trunk incident. The car was processed by Evidence Techs.
Get your facts straight.
As for the sergeant involved, nice work Rock!!
"taking care of" means acting like a mentor, showing the ropes when it comes to the workings of street business. Let's not be sarcastic. We all know what "taking care of" means. Who is that guy on your watch or your district?
11/07/05 9:20:44,
I've worked in 16 for several years and have never once seen or heard of an off-duty P.O. making an arrest.
I know, I know...you're the real Police and I'm not because I work up north, but don't lie or make statements when you don't have a clue about the coppers in 016 or what goes on there.
I just don't get it, I really don't and I hope I never do.
Good boses, Lt. Tony Riccio 017,newly promoted Lt.Bill Mullane and Lt.Mark Amati. Would work for them anytime any place.
COZZO FOR PREZ!!
RIZZI GOOD GUY ACTS JUST LIKE A WORKIN P.O. TAKE THE BAR OFF HIS SHOULDER YOU WOULD NEVER KNOW HE WAS A GREAT BOSS.
Off duty cooper made a pinch at Devon/Nagle yesterday at 6pm, waited 10 minutes for a car from 016 after calling twice, Niles showed up first and helped......
Off duty copper, sorry about the typo...
I believe there was a backlog in 016 at the time plus a foot chase of bank robbery suspect on belmont av. so dont start taliking shit. The off. was a shoplifter even though when a p.o. calls for a assist everyone shoud go but believe it or not it was a little hectic yesyerday in 016
Why was beat car down so long on a job at the time? Sgt should clear these dog coppers in 016 from their jobs. You should see the dog ass fucks on 1631 bt 3rd and 1st watch.....
1631 1st Watch has new officers I heard, which I believe, what ever the case I've seen them more now then ever before on mids.... Thanx EB and keep up the work at Hiawatha Park
think the guys and gals in 16 are the best in the city.
11/07/2005 08:25:58 PM
Yes, indeed... Great place to get your knob polished by you partner. Good hiding spots for the sport.
I think the 12th district has the "BEST" laziest coppers on 3rd watch : D
