Happy Fourth of July

A sight never to be seen again:

Don't know where we found it. Don't remember who it's from. Don't know when it was taken. It's been rattling around in our folders for a while. From the angle, it looks to have been taken from New Jersey? Any of our readers from the coast help out?

Happy Fourth of July everyone. 230 years. And still not a better place on earth. Play safe today.

I still think none is more Beautiful than our Chicago Skyline. Driving over the central avenue bridge looking east or from the lake looking west, its really a sight. God Bless our Veterans, Our boys and girls in Iraq, and all the Police out there. Happy 4th

Speaking of the Chicago skyline, if you are ever flying in from the east coast be sure to get a window seat on the right side of the plane. I've done this flight dozens of time, and almost every time the plane flys in northwest from the southeast side/Indiana.

It curved around downtown from the west side. There is no better view for a Chicagoan than downtown from the WEST looking down from 5000 feet. Seriously. No better view of Chicago from any angle or light.

God Bless ALL our Troops. Keep them in your prayers. Our ability to have free speech, as in this blog for example, is a direct result of ALL those that served this great country. Remember to fly your flag and Remember Our Thin Blue Line!

SCC-go to mandatory registration already will you-the informative and argumentative dialouge is few and far between, and it's not even worth reading through all this crap to get it anymore.

If you live in 016 look out!!! No car ava. for the last few nights. I read the stuff about the officers in 016 before on this blogg. so I was listening to zone 1 for the past few nights.... Lock YOUR DOORS KEEP YOUR GUNS LOADED AND LOOK OUT...I couldn't belive that there was not a car ava. for 2 hours the other night. Don't count on 911 to send help if you live in 016...take care of it on your own....

What's all this 'happy fourth' crap?

It's Happy Birthday America.

People actually fought and died so some of the morons who post here can write and spread their blabbering crap and not be shot instantly. In China recently a film maker was making a documentary critical of something or the other. He disappeared and hasn't been seen or heard from.

Kinda' makes you wish some of the northside posters would take a nice long vacation to China.

Still, Happy Birthday America!

My uncle marched across Europe with General Patton's army and got blown up in Belgium; that cost him an arm among other things.

He lived out his life in quiet and proud dignity and provided for his family without ever complaining or whining.

That's something the northside posting goofballs know nothing about.

Happy Birthday America.

its not the alderman, its the brass. they want to leave the impression that they have control over the hot spots in area 5, so they deplete 016 and 017 of the gang teams and ship them to the area. its all smoke and mirrors. maybe when some o.d.p.o. has to smoke some asshole breaking into his house, they may leave the gang teams where they belong. while there are dogs in 016 and 017, there are dogs everywhere. ever been to west sub. after dinner time ??? every non-working employee in the 15th district is there watching tv. big surprise. go to the alderman and put serious heat, not just a phone complaint. the bosses live in 16 & 17 and they dont even care about their own neighborhoods because they will retire soon and sell their property in a soon to be re-gentrified neighborhood which they bought into cheap and on the sly and make a killing. fair..huh ? keep sending the troops to 015, 025 and my 10 sector car to garfield park. fuck that ghetto, we pay the taxes, why cant we get police service ? do they send a fire ambulance to the west side in case willie catches a bullet ? NO !!! why send us there ???

Guys like you finally realize that here in 016 were limited to the resources that the faster district's get. I'm talking about our tac teams being sent to 015 & 025. The Deputy Chief refuses to send ANY help when asked. It's one B/S excuse after another. Granted, we have our share of dogs like every other district & unit has, but for the working officer (yes, we still have them here too) it's is very fustrating at times.
As for getting involved with your neighbors off-duty, BE CAREFUL! Call me and I'll get the right officer(s) to address your situation. I would put my name here, but suggested I do not because there are those who would still M/F me. So ask around.

If tomorrow all the things were gone I’d worked for all my life,
And I had to start again with just my children and my wife.
I’d thank my lucky stars to be living here today,
‘Cause the flag still stands for freedom and they can’t take that away.

And I’m proud to be an American where at least I know I’m free.
And I won’t forget the men who died, who gave that right to me.
And I’d gladly stand up next to you and defend her still today.
‘Cause there ain’t no doubt I love this land God bless the U.S.A.

From the lakes of Minnesota, to the hills of Tennessee,
across the plains of Texas, from sea to shining sea,

From Detroit down to Houston and New York to LA,
Well, there’s pride in every American heart,
and it’s time to stand and say:

I’m proud to be an American where at least I know I’m free.
And I won’t forget the men who died, who gave that right to me.
And I’d gladly stand up next to you and defend her still today.

Our country, God, and me.

And when you’re home again
I won’t miss you anymore,
But I’ll always admire your courage
For fighting in this war.

You know why we get it stuck in our asses up north? Because City Hall and your elected officials can count on your Irish neighbors acting as a swing vote and electing the Irish no matter how corrupt, incompetent, drunk, or indifferent to the needs of their constituents. Where were Doherty, Allen, or Levar during the Hampton Way controversy? Where were they when the idiot from Bridgeport announced he would buy more black, Mexican, and Puerto Rican votes with a billion dollars in new schools? Step inside Ebinger lately? None are planned for our neighborhoods. Where are your representatives when the department steals thirty percent of our promotions to give to people who spell shit with two t's? But thats okay as long as they can get piss drunk at the Heritage Center and cheer these assholes on. Thats our problem as I see it. This could not happen with an educated constituency that you find in Wilmette, Park Ridge, Deerfield, etc. Keep voting for democrats boys!

Funny I have been to skokie court several time in the past two months didn't see any northside coppers there either. For the person complaining about Tristian maybe some of you northside coppers are afraid to deal with "joe" or afraid of racial profiling. I was on my way home from a westside dist. stopped on higgins at a red light across from me was a marked 016 dist. car and an unmarked car stopped at the light. To my right was "joe" walking down the middle of the lane on higgins lifting every car door handle of the parked vehicles.After I watched him lift five door handles I saw the marked unit looking at me. I pointed to "joe" who was lifting at least two more handles. On duty copper looked at him and imediatly made a right hand turn down a side street and took off. Unmarked car pulled up I again pointed to "joe" who was yet lifting another door handle and unmarked car went through red light and took off. I know the vehicle #'s but I am not about ratting anyone out, they know who they are. Thank you for keeping my neighborhood safe. I just thanked god my vehicle stays in the garage away from "joe's" reach. That was just for the above mentioned non-workers collecting a paycheck for nothing. I am sure there are some fine working officer's in 016 and I would like to THANK YOU for working where I live.

You are dreamin if you are hoping against all common sense that another class will be made from the old sergeant list. if they were going to do that it would have happened a month ago. Why srape the ottom of the barrel in the middle of the Summer?

My guess is that you are at the bottom of the gene barrel, with spelling like that. Perhaps your brains were scraped out of the bottom of your momma's panties during pre-wash.

Topic for a new thread.

Area 4 is out to kill more trees.

Some duffus in 012 made up a new humper....remember those....and how we finally got rid of them...and Everett Johnson, sees this and decides to make all Area 4 Beat Cars make these out each tour. More micro-management from micro-minds to secure an inside job from a gun-toting clerk.

If this type of information was so important and useful why not have it as part of the PDT structure. Sign on 1112's PDT and all of their information should be all there on the screen even for a new officer on the beat.

I get some court,etc, and get the same pay. No CR's no OPS, No IAD, SAME PAY....you are IDIOTS !!! When you get jammed up the CPD won't be there for you !!

Next time any odpo sees something like that, pull your gun out and run behind 'joe'. A passing squad should be forced to stop. One time I tried flagging down a passing 16th district car but she kept driving and never looked my way (very observant). So the next time, I'll be swerving my car in front of her to get her to stop. Also, if you live near a border of a suburb, after you call for an assist with Chicago PD, call the nearest suburb. They'll probably get to you a lot faster. Post their numbers on your fridge for the wife and kids too. Be safe out there. Remember, Daley and the brass deplete certain 'city workers' neighborhoods because they figure there are enough police living there to protect themselves. Be safe out there.

To 06;03 Re: Da' Humper......

I'm not sure you are aware or remember but............

We had daily humpers a few years back.
Then Chief Mauer had bi-monthly Area meetings in which he would sit in on 'gripe-sessions.'
His theory was to learn from and listen to the throops regarding ideas and beefs.
You went into the session(s) with the understanding that "HE" has the final say-so and no guarantee that your idea or beef would be addressed further. BUT he wanted to HEAR from the people on-the- street.
Some smart copper brought up the fact that the 'humper' was a waste of time, manpower and paper.IT was a total duplication of reports as we have other means to review activity. The copper stated that the [then] new computer system kept a log [events] of all your activity on the PDT, so why then write it down (again) on paper and send it through the Chain-of-Command where no one reads it anyway.
Mauer listened [not too many bosses would have initiated this first step] and AGREED! His only concern at that time was that the 'humper' had your Beat/Sector CAPS Mission and Mission number on it which was necessary to address some B.S. [my words, not his] federal guidelines that kept us in the CAPS money.
He agreed this could be eliminated without any major ramifications. ALL that he requested in return was......
Every Beat/Rapid car, when you logged on, simply add your specific beat, sector Mission # and brief description after you log on in the comments section and we would successfully comply with the intended nature of the humper, 'without' writting extra paper to accomplish the same result.
[ie a Beat car in the 026th District would simply log on with his/her PC# and in comments section merely add....
"026-06-001, Thefts from auto's on Main Street"]

Well, [obviously] Mauer is gone and so honestly ask yourself how many people, districts, supervisors require one to now log on in that manner?!
Another bean-counter [boss] comes up with a 'humper' idea to monitor activity [despite PDT records, Citation and Activity Clerks in the Units and Districts on the City payroll] and here we are again.....
BACK TO SQUARE ONE.

In short, the more things change, the more they remain the same.
Just an [unbiased] explanation on how/why dumb things come about and/or repeat themselves in cycles on this job.
MY 2 cents.
STAY SAFE AND REMEMBER OUR THIN BLUE LINE

I call bullsheet. Took them 2 months to get our test results for a SCANTRON test. Now you tell me that the results from an essay test that over 3000-4000 took will be graded, placed in order by score, then work out ties by seniority, then ask for merit considerations, put the group into the D-Unit for 90 days and be ready at the end of Sept. for school... the only way they put a class in Sept is off the old list.

People young and old line up to see the festivities and you drive around Edison school multible times playing Police. Next year we will call in a man with a gun call so you wont show up. I hope you feel like the real Police now.

The fireworks that caused extensive damage to a house on the south side this year and have burned down others in the past. The fireworks that you set off till 3 in the morning, while those of us that arent drunk are trying to sleep. I salute you 1612 for not turning a blind eye to the illegal behavior that has gone on for too many years. YOU are not above the law.

Beautiful photo, but I doubt that it was taken from a boat in the harbor.

Unless this picture was altered, it would have to be a time exposure over several seconds in order to get several firework air-bursts for the extra brilliant background.

This would require a tripod mounted camera on steady surface, not on a rocking boat.

Try that sometime; it is a fun and easy technique with a film camera like my old Speed Graphic and probably with a more sophisticated digital camera.

You were breaking the law. Very obviously. Guess someone in the neighborhood doesn't appreciate your fireworks show. Me personally I didn't appreciate the big shit going off until 2am. I never called because I knew it was probably drunken coppers. Nevermind that I had to work days.


You should of seen how the guys seeting stuff off were taunting 1612. They looked totally rediculous. people were shouting jokes at them.

And for you, as a police officer standing by and watching that occur makes you an asshole. Do you think they just drove around fucking with everyone? They got a call, they had to answer. When your illegal fireworks are in such a large area and very obvious, you expect them to look the other way? Maybe you should read the to-from that the commander prepared on the 3rd that states, all schools will be checked 3 times a tour. Any setting up of any fireworks display will be stopped before it starts.

For you educated poops that have never worked a busy district, save the yuppy shit for your ass kissing desk job.

Not everyone who works in 016, has been in 016 since training. Get over yourself.

Edison school has been a tradition for years yet we were compared to a freaknik.

Sounds like the tradition will be ending. I will make sure I call next year. Maybe the fire dept can come do a washdown on your tradition.

1612 looked, sounded and acted like total snot nosed yuppy idiot cops. I WILL BE WATCHING BLONDIE.

Sounds like a threat officer. Really smart. Why don't you ask her brother in law what kind of police officer she is. You do know who that is don't you? Maybe you should find out before your run your mouth. Stupid.
