I'm not familiar with Chicago but I was reading an ex Chicago cops blog about some big open air celebration been planned. According to him it's gonna be a blood bath and cops are doing everything to get out of it. Anyone on Chicago no about this?
Let's see, you read a "blog" by a "guy" who purports to be an "ex-cop from Chicago", not quite the worst PD in the US, NYC still holds that thanks to Rudy (screaming skull) Giuliani. Cops turning down a chance at a lot of OT, doesn't seem like any cop I ever met.
This is the PD that conducted one of the worst POLIC RIOTS (not my word, the Koerner Commission's) in the history of the US during the DNC in '68.
My faux pas. Here is a link to the story. It's actually a Rally of about a million people in Grant Park. Once on the blog click Grant Park to read his other enteries.
Chicago, IL—It was 137 years ago this month inside a DeKoven Street barn that Mrs. O’Leary’s cow kicked over the lantern that began the Chicago Fire. Before it was over there were more than 300 dead and most of the city was destroyed. It was a terrible accident.
Now Chicago is planning the riskiest event ever in its history. An election night Barack Obama Rally is planned for Grant Park located adjacent to Chicago’s downtown. Today, Mayor Richard M. Daley happily announced that he’s expecting as much as a million people to attend. The attendees will be Barack Obama’s supporters, young angry Blacks looking for “change’.
The city has asked for as much as two million dollars from the Obama campaign for handling and clean up required for this unprecedented event. That meager sum won’t begin to cover the easily predictable explosive inferno that group would cause. The cleanup will take years, not days.
The city will need a huge supply of body bags on hand and the hospitals will never be able to handle the carnage this orgy will generate.
The sad truth is that the officials know what’s in store for this city and are proceeding anyway. God help the cops that are dumb enough to report to work that day.
Looking over this guy's blog, it is quite clear he has some issues, and his loathing of Obama borders on the pathological.
His bloodlust is disgusting, nothing more to see here.
I notice most of my responses aren't posted...they are if I'm in agreement or making a casual statement but if it call him or his views out - nada. To think he was a cop.

My friend that lives there told me downtown was trashed.He hates Philly, but is stuck there because his elderly mom won't move, and he can't leave her there alone.
