What's in a Name?
- The union representing Chicago aviation police officers is accusing the city of violating its contract — and jeopardizing the traveling public’s safety — by stripping the word “police” from the force’s uniforms and vehicles in response to the dragging of Dr. David Dao off a United Express flight at O’Hare Airport.
The rebranding of the Department of Aviation police department began in full force last week, with its SUVs being repainted so they say “security” instead of “police.” In January, aviation Commissioner Ginger Evans ordered the department to remove the word “police” from its uniforms — but the order was never enforced.
We suppose this has more to do with the possible disbandment or re-structuring of the DOA and the resultant Federal dollars and how they're spent / accounted for.

DAMN them they KILT that giant rabbit i know it
Rabbit lives matter!
Thier name is Aviation Security. It's in the city Budget. Get these phonies out of here already.
That dr was an idiot, running back into the plane and fussing, so was that woman with the kids crying over her stroller. Now there's a guy who decides to get up and go to the bathroom when the plane was on the tarmac ready to take off......the airline industry is getting their share of "it's all about me" and people who refuse to listen to authority and follow the rules. Shit we as the police put up with every day in every district.
SEIU, an Obama Organization.
Since when does the union have the power to regulate uniform requirements, unless they are part of a negotiation.
Airport Special Employment will be making its triumphant return before the official start of summer.
The powers that be at the Kool Aid Kastle have been busy beavers, scrambling to hammer out details to green light the program.
What this country is doing to law enforcement nationwide, we all might as well change our patches to security instead of police.
just have the company that works Bear games security do the airports, big red jacket and it says "Security " on it Dr Doa would of listened to them
Yeah we Heard there going disband it and to give it to the low life Universal Security in the Near Future , you know that's the Ballerinas idea
The stupidity continues.
But they're not the police. More like ushers for the airport. Why TSA has more authority than they do.
What made Ginger qualified to be the head of the DOA?
Step right up, get your Department of Aviation Police spayed and nutered.
Whats in a name you say? WHEEEEZZZZEEEE would say different....
The way things are going pretty soon our squad vehicles will have security on the side of our vehicles also. The girl in charge of the airports makes well over $300,000 per year and this is the same girl that hired the man Jeffrey who is in charge of the department of Aviation Police the same man who is involved in some sort of scandal over at the Illinois tollway authority who is obviously asked to leave takes a pay cut I walk to $50,000 a year all Ginger did was recycle someone that should've been terminated and yet she is allowing this man to decide the fate of working police officers in the Department of aviation Police Department. Morn more you can see clearly that the people that are hired in the big positions at the airports have no clue how to manage anything typical political clout drives their motivation very pathetic though how they can destroy people's lives.
This is perfect for Rham look for rham to make these aviation guys CPD in a 4 week academy cuts down on background checks and sends them to the street faster to keep up with retirements
Please be careful back each other up latest trooper rest in peace sounds like an assassination attempt;

Remember the only thing that matters are police families we are the thin blue line we must back each other up no matter what this seems like a trend hurting maybe for killing police officers this is being done due to the lack of support from the elected and the 24 hour a day seven days a week dishonest media bastardizing the police every chance they get. Then we have elected constantly pandering to the felons and the illegal and bears they never paid he 24 hour a day seven days a week dishonest media bastardizing the police every chance they get. Then we have elected constantly pandering to the felons and the illegal invaders. Notice how the good people are constantly maligned due to what the elected have in their agenda which is not support for law and order. God bless the police everywhere!
Good bye DOA, finally
They don't know the difference between a civil matter and a criminal matter, therefore they shouldn't be the police. They walked on that plane knowing that United overbooked it, and they allowed themselves to be put in the middle of the situation. Anytime you are willing to drag someone from a paid seat after hearing him scream, holler and after seeing blood; you should be fired. They passenger posed no threat to anyone. They did United's dirty work and now they are paying for it with their jobs. This could have been handled another way.
Would it be too much to ask to put someone in charge who knows WHAT THE FUCK THEY'RE DOING. Make it an arm of the CPD already, get rid of the political hacks, keep the guys that went thru the Academy that have their Military back round AND for GODS sake, ARM THEM Already....Is this too much to ask????
United CEO Oscar Munoz Blames David Dao Incident on ‘System Failure
That is the headline on NBC news;
http://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/united-ceo-oscar-munoz-blames-david-dao-incident-system-failure-n751661
Then Oscar says this;
"Do I believe what the law enforcement folks did was wrong? Yeah," he added.
Again let's play the police make sure they get in the story. So what is going to happen next time they need the police for an incident on their aircraft? What is the response policy with the airlines finally be required to sign complaints for everything they asked The police to do at the airport? Police are constantly summoned to the gate area for many types of calls the airlines one people throwing out of the airports and police do that would jeopardize yourselves ladies and gentlemen of the Chicago Police Department with this policy we are opening ourselves up for similar litigation where we will lose the bosses really don't care arrest on signed complaints by airline employees stop letting them put you in a trick bag. We are not bouncers for the Airlines I know it's a great place to work but if you're sitting in court and they go after you civilly and you lose what you have is the city which their hands of you it's your own fault.
You wanted to be the police, now your getting treated like the police. Imagine if something truly serious happened. Here is your shot across the bow friends.
By municipal ordinance, the words "Special Police" are to be on the front of badges worn by those commissioned as Special Police Officers by the Superintendent of the Chicago Police Department. And there may still be an ordinance that only allows Police Officers to wear a badge in the shape of a star.
Maybe they should replace it with the word " scapegoats "
Rham and Ginger are both rabidly anti-police.
If you look into the documents from the TSA, the aviation guys must have "POWERS OF ARREST"
it can take several forms, special police, public safety or just plain police.
The fact is, since they can't get their act straight due to political interference, the city and airports has lost several million dollars in grants and equipment.
Oh, and lets not forget how much we have lost due to the same problems, maybe tens of millions of dollars since Rham became mayor.
It looks like the city set up this unusual aviation police department just to get federal money. It is also a nice paying patronage job for the connected. I think it is time to disband the unit and increase Chicago Police presence at the airports. Then hire a private security firm, which of course will be connected to the political class.

You talk about their name in budget hmm how many names are shuffled and titles in CPD that is not in the "budget" also in our budget they say we have so many coppers but we don't where does that extra multi-millions get shuffled to?

As short handed as CPD is they help, they assist on many disturbance calls, yes working at Midway they help us. We are stretched thin everywhere and having them helps, they respond quickly to help, no they don't make arrests CPD does that is true many of these are military and many work in the burbs part time in other departments to help supplement their income that is some truth to this equation! Yes and I am cpd and appreciate them coming and backing us up, if they were not on that call with doctor that refused to obey the law cpd would of been in the same basket. Don't think your better than those coppers many incidents happen at the airports you would be amazed at things the airlines do to use us as bouncers. The only reason this was an issue is because this so called doctor knew exactly how to be the star of the youtube video and run back and display himself as he blames the police!
Look at doctors history would you use him as your doctor? Watching as all the avaition vehicles are be expidited and pulled into AMC (vehicle repiar building) and they are removing the "police" from all their vehicles and replacing with security! Does ginger evans ($300,000 a year girl) really think that is the solution? Then she hired that former tollway boss who is obviously clouted in a major way who was dumped due to his escapades to run the police at the airports! Who vetted him? the 3 stooges was the interview like this ginger:

United Airline stocks still hasn't completely recovered. Dragging a elderly Dr. down the aisle like a suitcase is a hard image to forget.
They need bring in Andy Frain to work there.
I wonder what that DOA security guy on days at ohare with the high and tight and earpiece is gonna do now that he can't wear police stuff anymore
Anybody who misbehaves on an airline should be banned from flying that airline. Serial douchebags will ultimately have to drive or take a train. The rest of us can be spared their antics.
It's a clouted job plain and simple.
ASM (aviation security monitor)
Retrained and rebooted. Entrusted servants of the halls of Ohare and Midway.
Place them in the center of every corridor and they can monitor people passing by.
Occasionally they can interact with the kids flying by on skateboards, keep chatter down to a minimum and usher folks into the gate rooms by second bell.
SEIU is a big PAC contributor to Democrat Rahm.
Concessions will be made and the DOA will stay put. Its not the 200 officers that they care about, it's the multitude of mindless political hacks DOA employs. Ginger should go back to being Julia Child's stand-in and not try to run Airport Security, we seen her ability and bad judgement with the hack hire of Jeff Redding. Ohare is just a huge patronage hive existing on the fleecing of the airlines and federal government.
It's just a matter of time before Ohare goes up for grabs and the shortage of effective security, real armed police, will again expose the lack of leadership at every level there. No surprise, it's a Chicago Value n
Just heard on the news that the good (?) Doctor settled with United for a sum that will remain confidential.
You guys sound just like the media asshats and revruns who like to give an opinion on how we should be doing our job when they have no clue and are judging the officers actions by the video they see on tv. You say disband the Aviation Police? I say who gives a shit how effective they are, there are retired CPD guys that work that job to supplement their pension. If anything this blog should be pulling for Aviiation Police to hire more CPD officers so we can support our own.
OT:
Someone needs to tell the area FBI agents to not intervene and stay fetal...

Good bust on ginger who has no clue who else did she hire like Redding? He's a bad hombre no doubt recycling the same old shit. Ginger fire Redding redeem yourself then resign! Waste of $300,000 in taxpayers money what a disgraceful waste of time!

is "sgt sue" from midway DOA SECURITY husband gonna write another comment slamming the CPD
I love when one of the CPD officers asked "sue" when she gotpromoted to sgt, "so do you have to go to the academy for sgt training?" and she says "no just the uniform store"
Jimmy started this bs when he was there. He was trying to build a police force and thought of himself as a general. Just check out the photo of him at the airport for a training exercise years back dressed up like general Patton,dog and cigar.Totally nuts.Also Phil made him a 2 star chief and what did he do. He when out and had a leather jacket made that says chief with 2 stars on it that he wears around even being retired. Sounds normal,not. You can catch him and other broken down retired bosses on Sundays at noon at Bo's bar on Northwest Hwy just south of Bryn Mawr. Stop by and listen to their stories about how Commander Otis who was put in charge of an evacuation plan the city wanted him to put together. He couldn't get off a boat without injuring himself full of adult beverages. Also you can hear Mike C relive the day this arrogant fuck shot himself and ruined a pair of Joe the tailors custom made pants. Join them and other bullshit artists for a thrilling afternoon of pure boring stupidity. See ya there.

– for gosh sakes marshmallow...It was a carry-on.
Better yet, think of the image as a 1970 Samsonite commercial.
Oh and yes, his Timex was still ticking.
Have a laugh, the entire flight got a payday, the Quack didn't loose any sleep and his family should be thanking the aviation officers.
Three guys doing their job (debatable) are getting the entire blame. Stand your ground doesn't apply on aircraft. CEO Oscar Munoz is an idiot. United eagerly took a Govmint Bailout, made a over $1billion in the process and still managed to screw over their longtime employees and the benefits. No sympathy for chickenshit United whatsoever.

A) Simon was all hopped up from smoking black tar hare-o-in.
B) Elmer Fudd was on the plane and he finalwee capped da wabbit.
C) One of Simon's feet was chopped off for a souvenir and he bled to death.
D) Simon fell down the rabbit hole.
E) Simon had blood on his face, two missing teeth and a broken nose when he expired. Corboy & Demetrio have been hired by his hares.
They fired mumbles Jeff Redding "he gone"!
http://www.nbcchicago.com/blogs/ward-room/OHare-Midway-Security-Chief-to-be-Fired-Source-420656903.html
Jeff Redding, who oversees security at both O’Hare and Midway airports, was fired Thursday, the Chicago Department of Aviation announced.
"Effective today, Jeffrey Redding has been terminated from his duties at the Chicago Department of Aviation (CDA)," the department said in a statement. "Aviation Security Assistant Commissioner Kevin Zator will oversee safety and security operations for the CDA in the interim."
Redding took the job last year, claiming he had lost his job at the Illinois Tollway in a house cleaning with newly elected Gov. Bruce Rauner. He failed to fully disclose he actually had been fired at the tollway. The Chicago Tribune reported last week Redding was fired after a female toll collector accused him of seeking sex and money in exchange for work related favors.
Redding had a $19 million budget and nearly 300 employees. These are the same employees who took part in the United Airlines incident that has gone viral--four aviation officers have been suspended after dragging D.r David Dao off an airplane
(More questions will ginger be fired next for the hiring of this goof? Where's Jeffrey turning up next? )
Rahm needs tread carefully if he thinks it's a good idea to simply baptize DOA security officer and pass them off as CPD. Given that they didn't complete a full 6 months in the CPD academy, work 3 periods with an FTO, or work an 18 month probation as a PPO, they would be huge liability. Go ahead 9.5, make them CPD if you want more lawsuits for inept and untrained police. Most of DOA wouldn't pass a drug test and the rest are over 63.
I love seeing the airlines get fucked by cell phone vids.
I hope it happens to every fucking occupation/profession under the sun.
Video accountability is not just for the police.
Now go fuck yourselves.

The doctor practices primal screaming therapy, as shown in his most recent instructional video titled "Screaming Your Way To A Windfall". However, as a result of all the publicity, his patient load has taken a harder whack than his nose and teeth took when they hit the armrest.
#1 and #2 at DOA have to go. Both political hacks with no clue and no ability to do the job.
711 pm covered it all this drunken review used to take place at colettis maybe it still does. I know jim m was and is crazy but speaking from experience he is a man of his word . Not sure why he hangs out with mike c but such is life .
No they are certified as State of Illinois police officers same test you took sparky,same training, they let these guys be demoted and get away with it what will they do with CPD? they already shorted the pension we are well under 25% funded with a massive exit in May! You talk about their name in budget hmm how many names are shuffled and titles in CPD that is not in the "budget" also in our budget they say we have so many coppers but we don't where does that extra multi-millions get shuffled to?
Not the same training. The go to the academy for half the time CPD recruits go
Ginger, the 80's called, they want ur hair back
Some of these DOA SECURITY guards are probably losing their minds over uniforms and vehicles saying security. Some of them have more shit on them, molle vest , tons of shit on duty belts, and there was a little chinese dude who had a thigh holster rig on ...EMPTY LOL true he was in my cpr class
The obvious answer to the whole are they police question is ...look who their union is !!! LOL not one other POLICE department is in that union ....
I talked to one of the REAL CPD retirees working aviation security at mdw yesterday, he was driving one of the vehicles saying SECURITY, i asked about this, he said all the retired cpd guys couldnt care less about having the police on cars uniforms etc and they welcome it...he said the could put chicago aviation ICE CREAM MEN on it as long as the dough is there....good laugh
Just like CHA police years ago they went away quick.
A big-money hire never takes place without the approval of the Corporation Counsel's office and the Mayor's office. Ginger could not have hired him without approval from the Hall, but she might be sacrificed if TD 9.5 feels the heat getting too close to him. If TD 9.5 remains unscathed, Ginger will most likely survive, but if TD 9.5 so much as breaks a sweat, Ginger be gone!
Burke will loose a lot of money on this one no more football tickets

Stop thinking CPD coppers are so much better, pass a drug test? how many CPD coppers failed the test, how about the big boss who tested for cocaine and not repeating exact words he he said he got it from sexual item with girlfriend they gets promoted!
i feel for these guys(DOA SECURITY), they wanted to be the police and got hood winked into thinking thats a police job...Step above george zimmerman, or a night watchman...
