Racist or sarcastic? Chicago cop recorded

Just another example of the unprofessional climate in the Chicago police Department. (Excluding the good cops) Am i to understand that nobody thinks that Chicago Has a serious Police problem? How many instances of outrageous , unprofessional behavior needs to be uncovered? John Burg, Latonya Haggerty case, Anthony Abbate, and of recent a stalking commander. Wake the F- up City hall!!!

What, are we STUPID! mayor Daley.

Mayor Daley wants a taser device in every police car claiming that there is liability in officers discharging their service pistol. He went on to explain that when a bullet ricochets, and hits an innocent citizen, the city of Chicago pays. He obviously thinks that the citizens of Chicago are stupid. If he wants tasers in every squad car to give officers a non lethal advantage then just say it; don't sugar-coat it with terms like "public safety or "saves the city money" So, instances that call for the use of deadly force will suddenly be downgraded to simply "taser worthy"right? Are we to believe that in a situation where deadly force is justified, an officer will just whip out his taser in hopes of avoiding an accidental ricochet? Duh!! I'm not against tasers but i am against political liars. Those tasers will be used to either give good officers a street advantage, or give bully officers a way to punish. while i think every Police officer should be required to be capable of subduing an unarmed combatant, i think tasers can be a useful tool for officers.. Just don't lie to us mayor , we are not stupid.

shelter challenges to overcome.

The sector of the homeless population that is most difficult for shelter workers to help is the mentally ill. Their behavior makes it difficult for them to conform to basic shelter rules so most times they remain on the street. I observed an instance of this Wednesday evening when a female shelter guest opted to walk the streets instead of receiving shelter services. She complained that her belongings were too far from where she slept. She wanted to bring a full sized shopping cart into the female sleeping area and park it next to her bed. We allow guest to stage their shopping carts and bikes in a nearby indoor garage area. For her this was unacceptable. I tried convincing her that after something to eat, a shower, and some sleep, she would feel much better. She refused services and left. I felt deflated. My heart is still heavy............. its Friday.

Move me.

Was asked to come down to a local coffee house for some live jazz. Was just "good".... music with no passion is ungratifying sex. Voices of angels, piano perfection, textbook trumpet, proper percussions does not make for a moving experience. Music to me is a creative medium for conveying melodic emotion. Sorry guys , tonight i felt nothing. It doesnt take a multiplatnum recording artist to move a room of 20 or a stadium of 20k. I have heard 10yr old jr Choir members sing with the passion of a broken hearted poet. Ive been lucky like that in my lifetime.
Chicago musicians.....move me or stay your ass at home. "Good" music is never good enough.
