Old School Cop Explains Chicago Violence And Political Correctness
This should be required reading for every American. A Nod to Theo Spark for the letter.
A retired old school Chicago cop wrote the following.
Eighty-six To Twelve
That was the score 4th of July (2013) weekend in Chicago. 86 shot (actually puncture wounds) twelve dead, Chicago stopped counting graze wounds and only counts actual bullet holes now, you don’t count if you get your nose or ear shot off. Chicago is also a city three quarters of which is unsafe to walk in. The thug and gang infested South, West and East sides are expanding like a cancer while the few remaining safe neighborhoods are shrinking annually due largely in part to scattered site housing.
This is the crowning achievement of our politicians and the social engineers, who long ago decided that big, bad, brutish policemen were no longer needed. So it came to pass that in the 70′s they started forcing females onto the department. That did away with height and strength requirements. They then decided that the correct rainbow of colors was needed. To accomplish this they lowered the aptitude tests and created quotas. That did away with intelligence and integrity requirements. Of course gays could not be excluded either. The ideal candidate for promotion became a black transvestite with a Spanish surname.
Our weapons were next on their agenda. Blackjacks, zap gloves and the like were banned. Our shotguns were moved from the front seat to the trunk, from the trunk to the radio room and from there just disappeared. New ammunition was issued which was so inadequate it would ricochet off of car windshields. And God help you if you hit someone with your flashlight.
Finally the politicians got rid of the real Policemen. The old dinosaurs were lured into early retirements and replaced with internal affairs weenies and gays with a decent sprinkling of color. The brutish “Old Clancey” stereotype was laid to rest and replaced by “Officers Ken & Barbie.” The end result is a department that is befuddled, cow towed, hamstrung, weak and totally not feared by the thugs and gang bangers, but oh so politically correct.
The City has succeeded in ridding itself of the brutish dinosaur cops of old and has replaced them with little girls and college yuppies who wouldn’t know a bad guy if he shit in their face. They have invented new politically correct terms like Wilding and Flash Mobs to describe Black Mob Violence which is rapidly spreading into the once “Safe Zones” of Michigan Avenue, River North and Wrigleyville.
After you have been shot, raped or robbed Officers Ken & Barbie will arrive and write a most excellent report with perfect grammar and punctuation which will be fed into a State of the Art computer which will crunch and manipulate the numbers precisely. Me, I long for the old days when Clancey crunched and manipulated the thugs before I became the next victim.
All of this in the most corrupt city, most corrupt county, most corrupt state in the country, whose political leaders zealously and vehemently fight to impose the most restrictive gun control legislation in the nation. If you believe Officers Ken & Barbie are going to protect you and yours, you had better get your head out of your butt and smell the coffee. Old Clancey is retired, it’s now up to you to protect yourself.
Rejoice oh liberals, you have gotten exactly what you wanted. Hope you enjoy it!
Sincerely, a retired old school cop (from O’Brien Street)
The saddest part of this situation is what has happened in our inner cities. Liberal policies have turned our cities into jungles where the role of police is that of adversary. Those who are condemned to live in such jungles are subject to crime and terror never experienced by the liberal do-gooders who have “improved” their lives.
These liberal fools pushing the ideology responsible for such conditions suffer no consequences. These “deep thinkers” (academics, politicians and others suffering from dystopian delusions) believe in an ideology that does not work. Despite overwhelming evidence, their vision blinds them to reality. They continue to pile more harebrained schemes on the defenseless, not unlike a lab technician seeking a particular outcome imposes on rats.
These social engineers are mostly unaffected by their stupidity and failed schemes. They don’t live in the areas they designate as laboratory experiments. These people take no risks regarding their visions, nor do they incur any pain for inflicting it on others. The poor are the ones most harmed. In most cities the poor tend to be disproportionately black, a species this group considers sacred. That they are harmed the most matters little to the concerned. Their failures can be blamed on “racism,” which they use to expand the harm they inflict.
These geniuses should be forced to live in the neighborhoods they ruined. They should be the lab animals that are subjected to their insanity.
