Hey Media? Want a Scoop?

Did you know that Rahm/Garry stopped manning the Safe Passage routes with HQ police officers over a week ago?

It's true!

It's also true that someone then got shot on a Safe Passage route....a student....the first casualty ever on a Safe Passage route that wasn't covered. Look it up - maybe check out the HeyJackasss site for a clue where it was.

The obvious conclusion is that Rahm hates African-American children.

No, the obvious conclusion is that, once the photo ops had been carefully orchestrated, once the headlines had faded away, once the pretty signage had been installed, Rahm did what he always does. He packed up his little carpetbag and moved on to the next unsuspecting group that needs him to fix whatever ain't broken.

Yellow-pinky nanny-statist, government sponsored corporatist progressives are the nastiest and most vicious classists, racists and all around haters.

They are genuinely NOT nice people to deal with.

We wish the "Catered To Contiruency" would hunt them harder in this era of destroying Police Departments for fun and fuckery.

The Progressives shouldn't have any objections when Dude comes a calling...

You know...
Since it's The Police that need "fixing" and all that other nonsense.

Heh... Maybe the Progressives believe that ghetto dumbshit about roving squads of rogue Police in black-face doing all the shooting and killing in Chicago's garden spots.

Note:
The female progs are the true believers.
No upright person can endure their unholy
yowls and shrieks of false outrage.

In the meantime?

Rahm should have the red hot coals of this question waved around under his narrow ass until he cries "Uncle!"

Sickening how he has been given a pass on his fucking around since he got off the plane three years ago.

I heard that there is about 6 Chicago police officers and 2 Chicago firemen all running for alderman this year. How awesome is that. Some major shake up in the city council and some pro police backing finally. Get Rahm out as well and the possibilities are endless. SCC, how about finding out all the candidates names and having a post about it. Im sure all the candidates would appreciate the chance to reach out to our huge police family for help. The 7 month campaign is a hard one and they all could need help from our extended family of police. just an idea.

OT --

The firemen are saying...

"I see it as very disturbing to remove the SCBAs from ambulances..."

"Hmmmmmm first rig at a [carbon monoxide] call and people are on the floor..."

"A fire company is not always dispatched with an ambo. Unless you have an activated CO monitor alarming, how often does a CO call get called in as a CO call? Down from the unknown, injured from the fall. Don't get companies for those calls. Furthermore what happens when the first responding company ends up canaries? The ambulance pulls up, sees 2(ambo) or 5(fire company) of their brothers/sisters (or even CPD) down and they can't do a damn thing but back up and call for help that's minutes away."

Red-light camera contractor wined, dined cops

(Sacramento Bee) Sacramento County sheriff’s deputies and California Highway Patrol officers accepted free meals worth thousands of dollars from the private company that operates the county’s red-light intersection cameras, then recommended the county choose that company over several competitors for a new red-light contract worth up to $11.8 million, a Sacramento Bee review has found.

Documents obtained by The Bee under the California Public Records Act show that Redflex Traffic Systems paid for at least 250 meals worth $3,800 over a five-year period for more than a dozen deputies and CHP officers, possibly violating department policies. The meals, ranging from $4 to $27, were provided to sheriff’s employees and CHP officers involved with the red-light cameras in Sacramento.

Five of those officials served on the eight-person evaluation team that ranked Redflex No. 1 among four competing companies for the new red-light camera contract last fall.

When ones considers that the civilian ticket writers use computers to generate the citations, I call horseshit on this one.

I average around 1100 to 1500 tickets per month as a mouth breather for Finance. My dismissal rate for the last quarter was 2.3%. The City PEA's are focusing more on the Non-dismissable tickets like No City Sticker or Improper Display or Expired Plates or Rear/Front plate required.


Like watching the clock for 9am street cleaning in 018 or 020 and while on patrol for Street Cleaning finding PO issued citation all written for 9:05am but spread out over a 5 or 6 block area.

I've seen PO issued tickets in the 11th Ward for Rear/Front on cars that have No Plates and the officer wrote the ticket twice (underlining Rear for the first and Front for the second).

I've seen Parker's issued by PO's from unit 212/211 for a Cracked Windshield stuck on cars that are Parked in a Standard Parking pay garage. And it is a moving violation that isn't allowed to be issued to a parked car, or else We would be writing it over at Finance.

On the flip side, I've been inside a few Police lots and seen obviously Cop owned cars with out of state plates and no city sticker but then you run the VIN and it comes back to a chicago address.

Or how about all the guys that are still driving around on those Expired 2 month special event plates And covering up their VIN because they KNOW the plates are illegal and can't be traced back to them.

I can handle seeing cops write Parker's. If it's a slow shift and you need to drum up some activity to keep the Sgt or Lt happy or your going after VRI or some other special OT detail. I do get it.

Sorry for the long post SCC...but one further thought on this:

1. for all of you that have never used the Autocite ticket machine: the internal clock can NOT be altered. It's locked out and can only be changed to the current time via physical RJ-45 port to USB post cable connect in case of a system crash.
2. If we at finance are handwriting tickets because out computer is down, we have a city issued phone that keeps sync via a cellular link to maintain the correct time of day. I never depend on my wrist watch because I keep it 5-10 minutes fast so I'm not late for anything.
3. If we run a plate through the S.O.S database to check the City the vehicle is registered to, unlike a Cop, we don't get name and address on our Autocites and if we call in a Temp plate to check the city and date issued, our supervisors only tell use City or Suburb and Date it expires and the make/model it is registered to.

I've been asked the question "don't you know whose car/truck/Van/etc..that is?"

I can honestly say "no I don't, but it has/is whatever the violation is."
Darn near anyone can get a generic FOP sticker.

The ones that tell a PEA that "this vehicle belongs to a cop" is the Sgt. or Lt or Capt. Association stickers.

By the time we see those stickers on the windshield, the ticket is probably printed out and we have standing orders to Not Void any ticket legally issued once it is printed and our Field Supervisors have told us to Not call them because someone wants a supervisor to order the PEA to void the ticket.

As for those of you that attach their Active member FOP medallion to their plates, keep in mind the wording of 9-76-160 in regards to keeping and maintaining the registration plates free and clear of all foreign materials.


Best regards and Stay safe,

More importantly as my cop wife says; Vote No on the Contract!

Let me explain the smart thing to do to you idiots who are stuck on safe passage. By a 3 flat for approx. 30k on your west or south side beat put another 40k into it . Section all 3, 2 bedroom apts for a 1000 sec 8 voucher your profit will be approx 1500 to 2000 a month. Beats the shit out of VRI and you get to watch it while you work. If you can't beat them join them I did and I'm retiring with 25 yrs on and 7k a month in income, pension or no pension. Be smart.

Safe passage is a joke....but desk dollies traffic and Fort fellatio occupants had to man those posts before and after school. Now beat cars are held down for 2 or 3 hours on 2nd watch and 3rd watch and tact are tied down after school. Now backlogs are created and other cars have to pick up the slack.

SCC, how about finding out all the candidates names and having a post about it. Im sure all the candidates would appreciate the chance to reach out to our huge police family for help. The 7 month campaign is a hard one and they all could need help from our extended family of police. just an idea.

9/25/2014 01:55:00 AM

Seconded.
-----
I will vote for any city workers running and any other than rahm. If all city workers actually get off their asses and vote, rahm is gone. He won 51% of the last election. Only 20% of city voted, so this smug, smiling prick only has 11% of the city voting for him. City workers and families have to make up at least 30% or more. Especially in neighborhoods without daily murders. He will not get the minority vote either. Don't let him fool you, he is scared. Vote no on the contract too.
Wow, you see how important voting is in this city and country... collectively it is time to oust stupidity!!!

There isn't a pay parking garage in Area 2 ball lick. You've got no business in a police lot, you don't know who owns what car, and you have no business running a VIN in a police lot. People get fired for misusing databases.

The murder in 019 a few weeks ago was 100 feet from a Safe Passage route (Magnolia north of Sunnyside) at 10:50 in the morning. The victim was pending trial for felony drug offense and a Truman College (GED) student.

Media and the alderman described it as gang related. "Truman College student killed before lunch 1 block from college near Safe Passage route" also applies.

This further illustrates how the same story can be spun differently to meet different goals.

You can't be a cop. And if you are, you must be a house mouse.

It isn't misusing the database to run a VIN number if the vehicle "smells"

Just like it isn't illegal to pull a car over just because you see an expired City Sticker on it.

I've seen Finance go through all city lots and I've seen the Clerk do it and there is nothing we can do as cops to prevent it legally. city owned lots are open season for enforcement, period.

Ummm....under Chapter 4-232 any vehicle can be inspected for a potential city sticker violation if the parking lot or garage is open to pedestrian traffic.

I don't personally like the mouthbreathers, but finance peas can't be interfered with legally if engaged in City Business on the public way or on City Property.

Like the poster or not, that post is spot on

OFF TOPIC: Police are being targeted by civilian ticket writers who either see a FOP medallion or a sticker in the window or they know that a police officer owns the vehicle.Guy's I know have told me they observed the ticket writers giving tickets to cars up to 20 minutes before violations can be written they have called and complained but as you know it goes no where. I would call the police detain them and call for their supervisor.

9/25/2014 11:09:00 AM

you would "detain" them? WOW! Under what grounds? I feel bad for anyone that has to work with you. Can only imagine the self inflicted law suits you attract.

9/25/2014 08:04:00 PM

"Detain them" for writing a ticket on your car? Hmmmmmmm...I think that may cause you some headaches on down the road. Probably a bad idea.

Address his strengths and weaknesses, fine. Talk about the merits of the race, fine.
But bitch about his age? Or the fact that he's had two City jobs, which means he passed tests, lives in the City and has demonstrated physical fitness? Get a life. (Can't stop laughing at your comment CFD or CPD is going to make him rich.)

What an audition Garry! I hope you get the spot.

I agree. We need pro police politicians out there lobbying for us too. They just shouldn't be working police. It should be somebody who is not locking people up and sit around and make cheesy smiles and wade through the knee deep bs that comes with the territory. I heard the community activist guy Andrew Holmes say something after one shooting that was straight pro police and common sense: pull out a gun on the police and you will get shot and deservedly so. It was a black man, with some sort of credibility now in the community, saying this on tv. If you think no one listened, I disagree. The truth is every cause, every issue needs a politicking spokesmen who appears neutral so people see them with less bias and let them speak. I have had quite a few conversations with people after the Dorner and Ferguson incident that were all the police are bad errrr!!! but because they knew me and trusted me, I broke down the incidents and though it was hard for them to swallow they actually heard me out. And then it got to where when a controversial use of force happened, one would call me and say what do you think about this? And I'd tell her both sides. Point is I was able to give her the idea in her head imagine your kid brother was the arresting officer. How do you feel about the idea that he might be killed or injured? I was even shocked with other guys (black males) that came to me, knowing I was the police, and telling me "Man I woulda shot him too!" regarding Ferguson. That's the one thing I want to do after this job is over, politic on our behalf and refute inaccurate police commentary because nobody else is really ahead of us in that game. I don't like politics but I do see it as a necessary evil especially since public opinion affects our budgets, equipment and everything we do. I keep bringing up Evans. Never mind the charges...HOW do you get that type of community support with those types of accusations...and be the police? At some point SOMEONE has to take on the beast of public opinion for us because we suffer because of it now and it's getting better.
