Deadfish's new Top Cop for Chicago

A few months ago Chicago dropped off the deep end again and elected Rahm Emanuel, aka Deadfish as Mayor.  Well HIONORDAMAER has appointed a new police superintendent and he's making the rounds with the usual suspects



CHICAGO (WLS) - Chicago's new top cop says the accessibility to firearms in America is an extension "of government-sponsored racism" that goes back to the days of slavery and Jim Crow.

Speaking to parishoners at St. Sabina Church earlier this month, Chicago Police Supt. Garry McCarthy took to the microphone after Father Michael Pfleger spoke about gun control.
McCarthy said the topic of race is a sensitive issue "because everybody's afraid of race" but that he wasn't afraid to broach to subject.

"So here’s what I want to tell you. See, let’s see if we can make a connection here. Slavery. Segregation. Black codes. Jim Crow. What, what did they all have in common? Anybody getting’ scared? Government sponsored racism."
I love the comment someone made on Legal Insurrection,

“See, let’s see if we can make a connection here. Slavery. Segregation. Black codes. Jim Crow. What, what did they all have in common? Anybody getting’ scared? Government sponsored racism.”

See, I was thinking “the Democratic Party”… which, I suspect, is one of many reasons why I wasn’t offered that speaking gig.

"Now I want you to connect one more dot on that chain of the African American history in this country, and tell me if I’m crazy. Federal gun laws that facilitate the flow of illegal firearms, into our urban centers across this country, that are killing our black and brown children," he said.

You mean like the ATF supervised by a black Attorney General who works for a black President who sold weapons to Mexican gangs....oh wait, you means weapons may come back....don't go there Mike...

McCarthy illustrated his point by recalling a crime scene investigation while he was a police official in Newark, New Jersey where five children were shot, two of whom were killed. McCarthy said when he got home, he turned on his television to unwind and found an episode of "Sarah Palin's Alaska" showing.

"She was caribou hunting and talking about the right to bear arms. Why wasn't she at the crime scene with me?"
Another thing that gets me is this 25 year veteran of law enforcement is saying how he was “walking over shell casings…bullets…they were getting caught up in my shoes…”

Excuse me Superintendent, a rookie I’m training knows to not walk across a crime scene like that…you got stuff called evidence and we kinda like it undisturbed until the crime scene unit comes over, takes photo’s, documents where the bullets are, etc. It’s called processing a crime scene which an investigator and district attorney (you know, the lawyers who prosecute the crimes) like to handle the case. If you are not familiar with this process I suggest you get to your CSU and have them educate you.

Chicago, you got another winner here...

UPDATE:

Yo Sup, maybe you and Deadfish can look into this.

Teen Mob Hits Walgreens On The Mag Mile

CHICAGO (CBS) — The teenage robbery mobs are at it again on North Michigan Avenue.

Some 50 young people barged into a Walgreens at Michigan and Chicago on the Magnificent Mile on Tuesday afternoon. They took bottled drinks and sandwiches off the shelves, then ran off, CBS 2′s Suzanne Le Mignot reports.

A police report says authorities were able to nab three of the thieves....

...The Mag Mile earlier this year was hit by similar mobs of young thieves. Attacks on commuters and bicyclists have become violent, and police have stepped up patrols.
