What is He Running For?

  • Former Chicago Police Supt. Garry McCarthy said Monday he would not have released the dashcam video that showed the fatal shooting of a teenager by a city police officer — not that anyone asked what he thought.

    “If I was asked, and I was not, I would have recommended to not release the Laquan McDonald” video, “because the case was still pending,” McCarthy said at a City Club of Chicago luncheon.

    [...]

    “Just because people want it, doesn’t mean it’s a good idea,” McCarthy said. “Releasing videos in not going to build trust.” It does, however, compromise ongoing criminal investigations, he added.
Something we and many had been saying for years.

Then he comes out with this:
  • Non-compliance with police officers is becoming standard, he added — as is a defensive posture by police, which limits their effectiveness because the aren’t as likely to be proactive.

    “Why would you stop anyone if you’re a police officer today in Chicago?” McCarthy asked. “Officers are getting mixed messages on how to do their job.”
Which is as ironic as fuck, seeing as how his entire policing strategy was "Numbers numbers numbers!" and ripping on bosses whose troops didn't produce the adequate number of stops.

Mark Brown from the Slum Times sees a politician in the making:
  • Usually when New Yorkers working in Chicago are shown the door, there’s no question of it hitting them from behind on the way out, so eager are they to depart.

    Former Chicago Police Supt. Garry McCarthy has proven an exception, a matter sure to draw political conjecture after a Monday speech to the City Club of Chicago that drew a mostly adoring crowd to hear his don’t-blame-the-police message.

    Sounding almost Donald-Trump-like at times, McCarthy took a couple of swipes at Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton and decried the “lawlessness in America” that he said has been created by a “culture today that is investigating police instead of criminals.”

    McCarthy told his listeners he’s not interested in being a politician, but the enthusiastic applause for his views indicated he’d find some support if he wanted to try his hand.
We're pretty sure he's still playing the role Rahm assigned him - distraction to the masses. Distracting the "community" that Rahm hid the video from for months. Being loud and brash, (properly) blaming the criminals while distracting from the fact it isn't the police releasing them from prison and proper sentencing. It's an interesting message, but it's different from the line he was preaching and practicing when he was actually in the big seat. Remember:
  • his first major speech was at St Sabina
  • he tripled the number of Deputy Chiefs
  • he closed 3 districts and 2 detective areas
  • the clearance rate cratered
  • death "investigations" skyrocketed under his regime
  • and the routine "reclassification" was all that "drove down" crime stats
The consistent double-digit "reductions in crime" should have resulted in negative crime numbers owed to future generations and were a source of constant amusement to the blog and some interested reporters at Chicago Magazine.

WHY didn't McCarthy come out and say that under CPD directives, we have no power to pull people over anymore? Read the directives, if the only reason for pulling the car over is a traffic violation, and the driver refuses to pull over and goes through an intersection while disregarding a traffic control device, we are "prohibited" to pursue. same goes if the car is stolen and refuses to pull over. just let them go.

WHY NOT let the public know what the bosses of this department are telling the officers to do while being paid with taxpayer money? We will be violating department policy for chasing cars that were taken in thefts.... for chasing cars for minor traffic violations.

Let the Citizens know that they do not have to pull over for sirens and lights. If you blow a red light and the police signal you to pull over, just keep going. Just keep going through one stop sign, or one stop light, or a combination of the two, and you are scot-free. Then crash into a light pole and sue the officers for violating department policy.

this is public information: http://directives.chicagopolice.org/directives/data/a7a57be2-1291920c-54712-9192-aecb02ef17e0c47d.html?hl=true

We take an oath to enforce the law, and the law tells us we do not have to retreat when confronted with resistance, but our department wants us to let people go......

When the situation turns to anarchy, they will call us back to action and the pendulum will swing the other way......

Nothing surprising... They took their cue from the

suite of offices at City Hall.

Slightly O/T:
Rahm cancelled his big "I MIGHT hire more Cops

Let's see how he cracks a hip with

What are you getting out of this pandering, this alternate loitering in front of the Glass Block Cross Church and then the FOP Hall? As people are speculating now...votes?

"Sounding almost Donald-Trump-like at times, McCarthy took a couple of swipes at Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton and decried the “lawlessness in America” that he said has been created by a “culture today that is investigating police instead of criminals."

...which sounds very precisely Hillary-Clinton-like at times.

She didn't even like military aides wearing their uniforms in the White House -- but has no qualms about lining up a whole phalanx of generals behind her when she affects to get all mannish with some "tough talk."

Work both sides of the room at once -- use everyone, without shame. Stroke the coppers, stroke the revs and hope no one will notice that the only one moving ahead is Garry.

"He did take a couple of swipes at Kaepernick and Hillary though."

I retired w/the 55 and premium medical care 2 years ago. Just went to the dr. for the first time this year and they told me my DEDUCTIBLE FOR OFFICE VISITS is $3,000. Physicals are covered 100%, but if you go to the dr. for any other reason, the deductible is $3 grand---WTF???? There are different deductibles now for each individual service type, such as for $350 for physical therapy, emergency care, etc., with a total deductible for all services (if used) $10,000.

One of his City Club comments about the crime issue irriated me in particular. He said if we expect the police to solve all of the problems of society, we will be having this same conversaton in 5 years. He then said the following: the community has a reason to distrust the police because in years past the police have enforced racist government laws against the black community. Sure Garry, like thou shalt not kill, rape, rob, burglarize their neighbors homes and steal their cars, blare rap out the windows at 3am and so on. In general, the same laws that are enforced in my neighborhood by the same police but not enforced so often and mostly without opposition. I am so sick and tired of the community and the dirty stain that it is.

Many young policemen are put into districts and believe with all their hearts that they would help people, restore safety to "the community" only to learn that they were the vitims of hatred and racism (an unreasonable fear or hatred of a group of people who are different than them accordingly to social studies majors)and within a few short years became very jaded. Very sad for all concerned like proud mothers, fathers, sibilings and right down the family line of those young policemen and women.

I remember thinking Garry, the problem is far bigger than you can imagine. The police are at best bit players in the whole situation yet the police are held out as the main problem.

What is he talking about? The video was NOT RELEASED for more than a year!The day after the incident, when there was still time for Exempt to tell Detectives to correct or change reports, if the Exempts felt something was wrong or needed to be adjusted;THEY DID NOTHING! SO THE REAL QUESTION IS WHY? What we are seeing here is McCarthy setting up his own defense, for when he will be subpoenaed to testify to the Grand Jury on this case. The Reality is this: McCarthy was the flunky for the Left Wing Radical Lawyer who was really calling the shots, and that was the Deputy Mayor, Liaison to the Police Department, Ms Roundtree. Remember that name, though some of you have never heard it, she not McCarthy, not De-Escalante; she and only she called the shots and fed them their "Talking Points" and Marching Orders. DNAINFO some weeks ago even had copies of some of those talking points. The Exempt were treated like children, given the Talking Points, to practice, memorize and vomit out on command. She told McCarthy what he could and could not do and or say. If he had let that tape out when it happened, we would have seen "Real Transparency" as Democrats love to promise, but never deliver. And if we had seen the tapes then; Rahm would be hustling in the Private Sector today, without his entourage of bodyguards, because he would not have been re-elected. Sneed used to call McCarthy the Bronx Bulldog; when in fact he is more like a lap Dog for a Lesbo! Stay Fetal, Stay Fetal; Fuc@ Rahm and all of his Freak Show Phonies! Baby"G"

Steven Pinker wrote in The Blank Slate: The Modern Denial of Human Nature:

'When law enforcement vanishes, all manner of violence breaks out: looting, settling old scores, ethnic cleansing, and petty warfare among gangs, warlords and mafias. This was obvious in the remnants of Yugoslavia, the Soviet Union, and parts of Africa in the 1990s, but can also happen in countries with a long tradition of civility. As a young teenager in proudly peaceable Canada during the romantic 1960s, I was a true believer in Bakunin’s anarchism. I laughed off my parents’ argument that if the government ever laid down its arms all hell would break loose. Our competing predictions were put to the test at 8:00 A.M. on October 17, 1969, when the Montreal police went on strike. By 11:20 A.M. the first bank was robbed. By noon most downtown stores had closed because of looting. Within a few more hours, taxi drivers burned down the garage of a limousine service that had competed with them for airport customers, a rooftop sniper killed a provincial police officer, rioters broke into several hotels and restaurants, and a doctor slew a burglar in his suburban home. By the end of the day, six banks had been robbed, a hundred shops had been looted, twelve fires had been set, forty carloads of storefront glass had been broken, and three million dollars in property damage had been inflicted, before city authorities had to call ni the army and, of course, the Mounties to restore order. This decisive empirical test left my politics in tatters (and offered a foretaste of life as a scientist).

protect it at any and all costs, no matter how
much blood runs in the gutters or how many
Policemen are being intentionally burned at
both ends to prop up failed policy.

What's happening to The Police in Chicago
is both a sin and a shame.

The delusional liberal progressive and
catered-to constituent talking point of:
"If you Cops weren't so, well, too;
"gun crime" in Chicago wouldn't
be as deplorable!"

Lots of stuff on the www about the
"Chicago Cops Pulling-Back."

"The community doesn't trust The Police."

Heh... Called shot of Bullshit.
Corner pocket... >CLUNK!<

The Police have no faith or trust in
"The Community's" capability to chart
it's own corrected course toward
finally sitting at the communal table of
mutual interests with the rest of
everybody else...

Truth:
It isn't guns so much as
the lacking in impulse
control, "adult children"
who are banging them off.

Therefore:
It has become good Democratic Liberal
Progressive political policy that The Police
be held somehow accountable for an ongoing
catastrophic cultural failure-to-launch of a
noisy-assed subsection of a percentage
of the population?

"We mighty cuz we LOUD!
Y'all rich an' shit so give us MORE
of what Y'ALL got an' we'll go away..."
(Until the next ginned-up
"outrage" of the minute)

We've said it before and we'll say it again...
In order for the rest of American Society to
EVER having any chance of prospering
again, the catered-to demographic subset
(and those who enabled and supported them)
must be left behind...

Just like when Noah's Ark achieved buoyancy
when that water became uncomfortably high...

"Why y'all tryin' to leave US behind an' shit?
That's RACIST!"
>Snicker! @ thems who like to
twist Scripture and what-not<

Meanwhile...

"The Police ARE the problem in Chicago...
Once we fix THEM, everything else will
fall into place."

A lot of what he's saying is spot on. Why wasn't he expressing these opinions when he was Supe?
Oh that's right to take that position Rahm required him to leave his balls in Rahm desk drawer and to have his spine removed for the duration of his tenure as Supe.

Now that he's gotten his balls back and given them a chance to get reacclimated to his body and he got his spine back and it's had a chance to firm up a bit..... now he decides to tell it like it is.
So while it's nice to hear it's a little late.

Rahm should have hired retired CPD part-time during the summer months, and sent all the House-Mouses out to the streets. The Murder and Overall Crime Rate would already be coming down, and the Taxpayers would have saved a lot of money wasted on Time and a Half Overtime. Rahm and the Democrats, always a Day Late and a Dollar Short. Maybe Rahm can hire those big time Life-Savers, the Union Sprinkler Fitters, who bravely go where no man goes, to clean up Chicago's Crime and Violence. If he can get the Lifesaver "Heros" out of the Taverns, where they spend most of their shifts.

The youth need to be respectful of authority whether at home, school, community and foremost the police.

It's not coincidence that the tribune has written all these anti cop hit pieces just as Rahms image was diving. These articles were written specifically to divert the blame to hard working cops so Rahm can play up to the protesters, activist, reverends, BLM, the criminals on the west and south side so he can be reelected and play nice with anti cop pro BLM Hillary.

The honor guard and enough officers on and off duty to show up and support chick and his family and give him a proper send off? He was an awesome guy who still loved this job, loved this department and most importantly loved life. He was nice to everyone he talked to weather it was another PO or some slug on the street.

McCathy is the same person who had an arrogant stance when it came to the patrol officers of Chicago. He wouldn't speak and was very sarcastic when asked a question. He tried to bring that old New Jersey mindset to Chicago and failed miserably. The only thing I agreed with him on was the merit promotions nonsense. He didn't believe that officers who weren't assigned to patrol should be granted merit. McCarthy rejected many clout babies during the merit process. As soon as he was thrown under the bus...EW had a field day. McCarthy go away!. You do not have the answers for Chicago. You screwed that up during your first compstat meeting when the real bosses turned in their stars. Those were the bosses that we didn't mind working for because they had their own scandal going on.

The sheriff is within the sheriff rights to seize the person and all his property and the person can be sent to an Island of the Sheriff' liking.

You got yeas before Medicare, just walk into an e r at 5 star hospital and tell them you are a mute from El Salvador and you will get treated by the best.
Fuck FOP and their bull shit nickel death benefit. Dean can go put his head up Rahms ass and have lunch there, If you young bucks don't go teamsters you will be fucked. They cleaned up their acts and are getting their juice again. FOP is just a picnic funding, they do shot for all current. Lawyer' like Herbert's are a dime a dozen.

I haven't had that problem, yet! I hear that some doctors, either out of greed or the complexity of bama care are opting out of taking Medicare or insurance payments. They have a "boutique" of payment schedules. You pay a certain amount and you have unlimited visits etc. it can be very costly and the price goes up as the amount of patients go down!

I had a additional deductible that I wasn't aware of for having physical therapy with a occupational therapist prescribed by a surgeon for post surgery treatment. I called the FOP and they talked to me like, what's the problem, DUMB FUCK its in the new contract! I went to a regular physical therapist and had no billing add ons? Guess I am a DUMB FUCK for thinking that the FOP was for us! We get enough attitude from the department and on the street, I don't need anymore from a unelected employee of the FOP...

Speak for yourself. Not every po in Chicago despises him. Had a few dealings with him and he was always good with me. Ask the 2 po's from 015 who were stripped and termination proceedings were ordered. He investigated the case and determined no punishment and returned them to duty. He also tried not to releas all the videos. All of there new cases with the new videos were during his watch and none of those videos were released until he was terminated. That's when all the po's were stripped

F you, McCarthy! You would throw a copper under the bus in a New York second! You pandered to the fake reverends and the BS gun control crowd. You are nothing but a politician who would say and do what you thought would advance your own career regardless who you burned in the process. Hell, you couldn't even be bothered to say hi to the regular coppers you would see at HQ or on the street. Now you want to pretend you are the blue shirts best friend. You and your buddy Dick Tracy are a**holes of the highest order.

Wow. McCarthy did all that. Then we are real lucky he was fired and replaced with a new supt who is not political and surely doesn't pander to the reverends, administers fair promotional tests like the lts test and would never throw a po under a bus by releasing videos almost immediately after the incident and strip them before the investigation is even started. Comstat has changed and what does stand out is the people the new supt surrounds himself with.
We real got lucky with this new supt change Now all the po's in patrol will be happy with his new choice of district commanders. I see it everyday in their comments on the blog

The fact is that EVERY Superintendent is responsible for the nonsense that follows. Without McCompstat, we wouldn't have the McDonald stain on our Department. He could have put that spine to use but chose to pander. He pounded the Commanders for contact cards and ANOVs instead of police work. He spent 5 years chasing numbers to make the mayor and himself look good. He was a politician in a policeman's uniform and here we are today.

Now we have the end result of his ineptitude: the kneejerk reaction that has given us the command structure we now enjoy.
