It's Getting Better?

Just in case you thought it was getting better:


It isn't.

Everything down. No cars available.

Time to start cleaning out some of those inside jobs from 35th St., the Academy, Homan Sq, etc etc etc.

Put some of those that wear the uniform but are afraid to be the police on the street. There's lots of units full of those play police.

017 is like the red headed step child. Downtown continues to pull officers out for details, 'Summer Mobile', etc... but hardly any openings. Manpower is at an all time low and so is morale. There is nothing left to squeeze out from the pos. Most days and most watches there are downed cars, no rapid response units, no park car, no traffic car. It is unsafe for the officers and unfair to the tax payers. The commander is too afraid to ask for more people and the aldermen should of lobbied years ago for more officers. And not for 5 more either, they need at least 50 more just to man the cars and conduct badly needed missions and gang supression.

Chicago Priest Arrested On Child Pornography Charge
and Cupich followed his predecessors M.O. and sent the guy out of state and delayed notifying the police

I expect a major announcement from our own Phather Plakey who has publicly stated many times how much he hates "the code of silence" that exists in the CPD....never mind

The sheelple continue to pay the high taxes and never object! just like rahm the aldsergoofs do nothing, people don't hold them accountable unless they are in the anti-police thug communities then they have a "cop on the block" every hour everyday! Hundreds of millions thrown away on police ghetto overtime and nothing for the honest hard working taxpaying citizens. then they dump billions on pandering to the illegal invaders communities giving them free everything! been to the ER lately? Example Christ over run with illegals and their children getting free care treating the ER like it is an amusement park running jumping etc all free paid by us as you wait and wait to get treatment!

Keep paying those ever expanding high taxes and getting little to no service rahm just keeps laughing and fake crying guess his actor brother taught him well!

Ok relax everybody. Midnights for the last few hrs that's what it looks like in alot of districts. Ever worked midnights? All you have up is the late midnight cars. That's not specific to 017. Now how to be tactical and dodge that 5am domestic. I'd recommend holding down on reports? Traffic stop? Hmm only half tank of gas. Better top it off!! See you at checkoff!

Can someone post 1st, 2nd and 3rd Watches from say 016-017 and 007-003 for some comparisons too?
The contrasts should be amazing for the tax payers.
Rahm has to be as delighted as Daley to stick it to the chumps that elect these thieves.
More money for programs and less services for the working people.
Keep paying your fair share for everyone else.

Also, I read on Breitbart that Hilliary is only up 6 points in Illinois and Wisconsin polls at this point, compared to O'Boma's +16% when he ran in 2012. This could be the start of the end of Democrat Rule.

017 used to be a great place to work years ago.

Busy enough to keep you interested but not enough to get you overwhelmed. Had a lot of good and some oddball cops and every kind of ethnic in those neighborhoods.

But the important thing was that there was enough of us, we had the comradery and some good bosses.

Homan ave and the worthless narcotic unit personnel could open back up 2 districts and be fully manned. 30 grams of grass is a major seizure to them, with 40 names on the paper. Seizing $90.00 is off the charts for them.
Us retired guys that worked Normal street. total of 80, brought in more weight on a bad night then the current unit of 600 do in a year. The unit should be cut by 80 percent and the city would save millions with all those bull shit take home cars, etc. The same street dealers that are pinched so often by these stars, that they could give tours of the building.
Lake Forest police make more seizures then all of 189. When seeing these uppity and over inflated ego tattooed 1/16 gram S/W people was a laugh a minute. The whole unit should be sent to man beat cars and give the real patrol guys a break.
The real stars of CPD wear uniforms and drive marked squads and spend a full 9 hours a day of endless shit, and never ending drama of these loud mouthed mutts of the ghetto.

Either you're a clueless citizen or the dumbest cop in the city. The cars aren't down because the vehicles don't work. They're down because there are no officers to man them. No cars available means no cars available to take whatever calls come in, not that there's a bunch of officers sitting at the station without transportation to their next call. Sometimes I wonder about the people posting here.

Maybe next contract the fop can negotiate for a few extra squads. Never mind trying for a good raise, or holding city accountable to finance their end of our pensions, or holding the line on our deteriorating health care benefits.

As in 2012 phony polls will state that Hillary is so far ahead that Trump voters should just not bother voting. Democommunists are proud of how they stole the elections for JFK and others.

Check this out, we need Federal or even international observers/enforcers at our polling places:

To the guy who worked at normal street. Congratulations on being such a great police officer. Obviously you have been retired a while. The game has changed buddy, criminals have the upper hand, cops are getting indicted for shit "YOU" did on a daily basis and everyone called it great police work. Patrol isn't doing anything either considering you are a walking talking documentary with a camera strapped to your chest. Twenty years from now some copper that is working at Homan will be reading the 2036 version of Secondcitycop and write the same shit you wrote "back in my day........". Get over yourself, you got to that unit the same way everybody else did and still does. A phone call. Unless you have proof that you were such a bad ass you should take it easy. Just keep enjoying that pension check, you're welcome. Love, your Homan square buddies.

This bullshit of having only 3-5 cars is not just asinine, but is a major safety hazard. Maybe Deano will help, if he actually takes a call and agrees to file a grievance. Probably have a better chance of winning he lottery.

The number of cars should never be part of any contract. The city is responsible for providing the vehicles needed to patrol the streets. It has absolutely nothing to do with the contract for the officers. Do you want radios and tasers and cameras to be part of the contract too? What about tires and oil for the cars? Paint, stickers, lights, sirens, cages, gas, etc.? What does any of that have to do with the officers? I'll happily sign a contract that leaves us with no equipment to allow us to do our jobs. Then we get paid to do nothing. Sign me up.

Whaaaat!!!!!

Narcotics has been a LAPA auxiliary post for years.

Even if your fantasy of the LAPA warriors(most never saw dope until 189) taking down EL Chapo were realistic. Do really think that a Hispanic PO attempting to get close to a major dope dealer is anywhere near realistic? Sorry buddy, if you grew up in Little Village or Pilsen they all know you're a cop. If you really think that a big time dope boy isn't gonna find it strange that nobody knows who the fuck you are and you are trying to buy a significant amount of dope??? I think the rich honkey from the suburbs might be a better story.

The only role of Unit 189 is to get potential victims /offenders off the streets one dime bag at a time. This has been going on since at least 2005. This policy was implemented by downtown and has continued since it's inception. There is only 1 8 man team working long term investigations. Everyone else is violence reduction reducing the amount of potential victims/offenders. The only problem is they are out of jail in less than 24 hours thanks to prickwinkles ibond for violent drug offenders.

To all of you ragging on Unit 189: Many of us actually would like to do quality work (long-term stuff that could bring in bigger weight and weapons) but we are prevented from doing so by our supervisors. The bosses there who have no clue how to justify a long-term investigation to their bosses continuously resort to the cheap numbers-driven crap that Narcotics is mired in at the moment.

The perks are still pretty good, though--which is probably the real reason for the vitriolic commentary. And you old-timers posting how we can't carry your jockstraps should be smart enough to know that each new generation of officers has to learn to go with the flow to survive (or stay employed). It's a much different world than it was when you were out there, so give it a rest please.
