Every year the city host's the Taste of Chicago which has a large fireworks display on the 3rd of July. We've been dealing with manpower shortages, liberal media that hates us, "community activists", alleged "reverends" (I am a fully ordained pastor of the Universal Life Church, long story) and some ill informed prognosticators (read SUBMAN1) who like to make us punching bags. If you did not know, Chicago is one of the finalists to host the summer Olympics in 2016, and unfortunately I cannot retire before then. Please take a few moments of your time to read this VERY brief article that was buried in page 6 of the paper. Then, if that doesn't just illicit a little bit of outrage read some of the comments by some of the law abidding citizens that are finally figuring out that A. we are way short, B. it's not worth your job or going to federal court for proactive policing, C. you wanted hands off, PC policing, guess what, you got it!
This is not a personal attack on SUBMAN1 but I would like to get his attention so I can get a semi public response, since he was so quick to judgement on a 7 million dollar lawsuit.
"Good for her! Gee, we can't find the cops weapon, so you must have stolen it! What kind of BS is that?"
