We lost another officer. ANOTHER ONE to the 007th District. This time right outside the police station.
Our thoughts. We are losing this war boys and girls. The violence and the thuggery is taking over this city. We are losing not because we do not have the soldiers to fight the war. Oh no, we have the soldiers. Trust me. Myself and some of my staff work with them. They are some of the bravest, strongest and smartest people that I have ever had the pleasure of knowing and working with(I am using the first person because this article is coming straight from the writer). We are losing because we have let our city, and neighborhood in some respects, be taken over by a political group that does not give two shits about their citizens or their police. They coddle up next to Ceasefire and reverends, who are probably so in bed with the gangs that it might be hard to tell the difference, just so they can retain power. These politicians believe they gain political power by throwing officers that sometimes operate in a grey area right under the bus. These officers are the same ones that are spilling their blood, sweat and tears in neighborhoods that do not truly appreciate what they are doing. Englewood being one of them. Our boys and girls in blue are itching for the opportunity to right the wrongs that they see daily, but can't because of fear they will lose their job over some grey area actions that are completely called for at this point. I don't blame them and nor should you. Changes need to be made.
There are sections of this city that are truly lost. Englewood is one of them. Now, I know we are going to hear speeches regarding how there are good people that live in Englewood and that they deserve to have protection. Fuck that. If those good people are there, then it is time for them to do one of two things. Either leave or stand up and fight for their neighborhood. Let them stand up and speak out for the police. Demand news coverage for their pro police and pro neighborhood rants. Speak clearly and to the point that anything that occurs in a police officers tour of duty that wanders into the grey area of policing, be considered as the right thing the police officer did.
However, until that day comes and until the evil starts acting good, we have a new proposal. Examine the taxes generated from that neighborhood and give them the protection that their neighborhood deserves in the form of taxes collected, not votes garnered. Then pull all of the resources out of that neighborhood because we are sure that money going into that neighborhood is well over money coming out. All of the extra units, all of the manpower, equipment, the police station, etc. Let the neighborhood fall on its own without taking the good along with it. Send all of those resources to our district or other districts where it is evident there is still good. I promise you, the people of Mt. Greenwood would not march against their police. They would welcome them with open arms and appreciate what they are there to do. We have lost enough good people in this war. If the politicians won't let us fight this war to win, then we are going to choose the battles we fight. Like fighting for Mt. Greenwood.
It takes good to kill evil. We have the good on our side. God knows it. The citizens of Mt. Greenwood know it. The politicians and the ones with power (media, reverends, etc) don't care about good unless it serves their political, power hungry interests. They will also embrace evil if it serves their political, power hungry needs. In the city as a whole, good vs. evil, evil is winning. In our neighborhood, good vs. evil, good is winning but evil is advancing. Let's put a stop to it. God is on our side.

well said, we need to be able to take the gloves off and take our fucking streets back!
99% of politicians are cowards and scumbags.god save the USA!"It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died.Rather we should thank GOD that such men lived."GENERAL GEORGE S.PATTON,JR.
probably in bed with Cease Fire? Let me reassure you, as someone who works with offenders, Cease Fire is the biggest fucking joke there is. No different than what the Blackstone Rangers did in the 60's...using taxpayer dollars to fund crime and criminals. Any shithead needing a little spending cash in the meantime hooks up with Cease Fire.
It's a variation of a political structure that was born in the 60's, used as a front for the civil rights movement and perfected into an art form by people like Jesse Jackson and Father Pfleger, etc.
The big question is why? And what are we going to do about it? The back door deals behind the public grandstanding has become so big that I don't even think those that organized it all anticipated that it would be this successful.
All this talk about revolution by radicals and black racists. How about a revelation? How about, decent people get off their asses and start voting everybody out. Everybody and start from scratch.
This shit has got to stop. We have more people now taking out than those that are putting in. It was bound to happen.
Keep up the pressure baby! Truer words were never spoken.
It is more dangerous on the Southside than in Afghanistan, Daley does NOTHING but pass the buck, [and steal the buck] to make it safer for Chicago cops to do their jobs. Daley=666 He, and his clones in the democommiecrat Party have ruined our Nation with their b.s.
Well said.
The fish stinks from the head down. By that i mean the leadership we have not only in this country (Obama) but this city (Daley). Proactive policing is dying because of the high cost (departmental discipline/lawsuits) and low reward. When terrorists are referred to as "foreign combatants" and the justice dept seeks to punish the CIA or troops for waterboarding it doesnt send a good message down the pipe line. Combine that with the fact that the Lebron James free agent story is running ahead of this tradgedy coupled with the many examples of how the city and police department has gone out of its way to go after aggressive police officers only emboldens the criminal element.
Armed black offenders seem to be killing police officers at an alarming rate in this city. Its not racist, its a fact. I wonder when attention to this fact will get as much funding as the "traffic stop study" whereby each time an officer issues a ticket they must document the race of the driver, why they pulled them over and whether or not they were searched. Its a waste of time but its been in effect for something like 5 years and now they just renewed it for something like another decade since they didnt get the "results" that they wanted.
Part of saving Mt. Greenwood is keeping Section 8 out of here thru the housing rental market.
I just saw another house for rent on 108th and Trumbull. Another asshole that probably moved to Beverly and does not give a shit about the neighborhood where he just raised his kids. If you can not sell your house then dont move.
The idea of renting your house in Mt. Greenwood is not a good one. This is not a good rental market. It just brings the assholes from Englewood here to prey on the neighborhood by using Section 8.
The thing I wonder where is the Ring of Reverends?
Jesse, Rev Fleger. The defenders of the downtrodden!
I agree with one of the other comments. Let the cops take the gloves off!! May that poor officer rest in Peace!
To the " good people" in englewood.
Until you stand with us (the police) you are an enemy to me. I will no longer serve or protect you, but serve and protect those who stand with us from you. A war was declared on poverty by thrust goverent, if you do nothing to fight poverty, like getting off your link card and moving out of free goverment housing, then you are providing aide and comfort to the enemy ( poverty). The government declared a war on drugs. Of you use them, sell them, or are complacent in the manufacture, sale, and or distribution of them, you are providing aide and comfort to the enemy. These are acts of treason!
FOR STARTERS TAKE MT, GREENWOOD PARK BACK AND FIGHT AGAINST THE PUBLIC AID OFFICE GOING INTO THE OLD WALGREENS THAT GINGER SIGNED ONTO.
Picket Rugai's office, head of police + fire commission, time to do something or shut up permenantly. Not enough manpower, modern equipment, experience, leadership for CPD Officers, just a B.S. 2% raise.

She's putting a public aid office there????? Oh fuck! What an insult. Just what we need. They'll be nothing but garbage from one end of the street to another. People hanging around, causing trouble. What the fuck is wrong with her? Why have they all sold their souls to the losers of the world. I just do no understand this.
