Now HERE'S a Rumor
No idea if this is true, but it's drama made to order:
- Charles Ramsey is in town and was seen at a cafe with Rahm on Montrose Ave. I think Garry's days are coming to an end. Makes sense for Rahm. A knowledgeable black man leading the CPD. A no lose situation for Rahm. The alderman are fed up with Garry and have let Rahm know of their displeasure. Stay tuned.
If nothing else, this one will rattle 35th Street all weekend.

Ramsey for mayor!!
We're almost 2000 less than the 13500 that was on the payroll when he left. As long as tiny dancer is still in charge not much will change. If he does anything to improve the numbers he maybe your next mayor.
Rollo Tomasi
Sounds plausible
Rahm is trying to kiss ass now that he is forced to run a 2nd term.
Homicides made a mess of his ambitious political career
by REBEL PUNDIT 12 Sep 2013 276 POST A COMMENT
Thirteen members of Illinois' powerful and elite political class have now been charged in fraud schemes by the U.S. Attorney’s office this year. At least two have some form of connection to President Obama: Jeri L. Wright, daughter of the controversial Reverend Jeremiah Wright whose church Obama attended; and Quinshaunta R. Golden, former Department of Public Health chief of staff to President Obama’s longtime friend Eric E. Whitaker.
This reminds me of another time Ramsey had a 'sit down' with another mayor of this city. Ramsey ended up leaving town afterward. Mmmmm I wonder why$$$$$$
Charles Ramsey was as bad as Leroy Martin when he was here. Now after carpetbagging through how many police departments he has lost all his Chicago street credits.
Rahm might take Ramsey if he will continue the hatchet job begun by Weis and McFuckup.
Rahm might be real pissed at McCarthy when he has to write overtime checks to those PPOs.
Do not think because Ramsey is retired-CPD that his return will be wonderful for us.
If you think things were bad under Weis and are bad with McDrunken, you will find that Ramsey is very treacherous and he will have you wishing for the old days of Weis or McDrunken.
We could us all the help we can get! When did the north side sgt's become such bitches?
SCC, you are right on the money. Nothing against Gary personally, but many alderman are very unhappy with the Supt. His days are numbered and the Mayor is now making moves to appease the Black Caucus. You can take that to the bank.
Whoever told you this information is right on the spot.
He was in 019 on Montrose at Glenns Diner. Which by the way is a great place for seafood.
Daley didn't give it to him because he was afraid Ramsey would run for mayor. Here's hoping Chuck's coming home!
Why would Charlie leave the 4th biggest city to return to Chiraq?
nothing like jumping into a hot frying pan when you have it pretty good out East.
Doesn't matter which puppet's at the helm of the SS CPD.
This city is beyond salvage. And this job and any waning morale that might have lingered from the pre-J-Fled days is on life support.
The pride that once accompanied being CPD has been methodically asphyxiated by liberalism, socialism and leftwing ideologies.
By design we have become the enemy in the eyes of the ignorant masses pacified by generations of entitlements. The man handing out the gub'mint cheese does so once allegiance is pledged and the ballot marked democRAT.
If Ramsey - or any other minority - is brought in to run the show, rest assured it'll be to placate the very same cassock-clad assholes preaching anti-police rhetoric during their weekly sermons.
If you thought the Cline/Meeks embrace or McDaysAreNumbered St. Sabina "government-sponsored racism" rant was theatrical, just wait until "one of their own" is back at the top of the CPD foodchain.
The more things change, the more they stay the same.
I have heard through the grapevine that the Reverends, community activists, and Black aldermen are not happy with McCarthy, and are starting to voice their displeasure to Rahm, so I think McCarthy's days might be numbered.
As for Charles Ramsey, I worked for him when he was here years ago and always found him to be fair and knowledgeable. He is a class act and should have gotten the Superintendent's job over Terry Hilliard.
If freckles comes back, WERE ALL FUCKED!
Ramsey back in town to become Supe??
Rahm knows he is not well liked by everyone. but with a solid vote block and no meaningful opposition, he will slide in for another term.
Just another one of Rahm's pandering moves to get the Rev's behind him to push out enough black votes to get him reelected. Everyone else stays home, saying "Why bother?"
Nothing more.
If Ramsey takes the job, he will regret it. This is not the same department he left. There is almost no meat on the sun-dried carcass.
Unless Ramsey takes the ballerina by the bells and squeezes them for some real power to run the department HIS way.
But no one that ever has risen to the top of the department has ever been a forceful leader. They all have gotten there by kissing butt and making deals.
I worked with Charlie years ago he's a great guy and knows his shit I believe the rank and file will like him too. He would make garry look like an idiot.......but that's not to hard.
Not true...Rahm was seen with Jfled @ ricobenes
Cafe on Montrose? Is there such a thing?
Yes there is.
Ok since Rahm lives just south of Montrose that looks good so far.
Then Rahm is clearly worried about reelection in 2015. He's been busy on an apology tour of sorts.
First he wants to rename Stony Island after some dead bishop.
Then what?
Hmmm.
A black superintendent!
Makes sense to me.
Personally I think he'd divorce his wife and marry Karen Lewis if she'd have him and if it would insure his reelection.
If I were Mrs Rahm I'd find a good attorney!
On a more serious note given Ramsey's experience in DC and Philly AND his skin color he would make an excellent political choice for Rahm.
Sayanara Garry! Maybe you can get a gig on one of the TV stations with Jody Weis.
Ask any D.C. cop about Ramsey and they'll all tell you what a piece of shit he is.
Garry is a white minority himself. It seems that Garry would be a win win situation for Mr. Rahm. What is not to like about him?
Maybe he came back for the vigil?
Ramsey would be marginally better than McFailure.
Remember whoever Rahm would consider and hire would have to be someone who'd agree to further Rahm's fucked up agenda.
Ramsey would have to forfeit his pension payments while Supt He would want a lot of money, plus moving expenses. I say no dice.
There's an opening at the Ilini Crime commission. Bazinngga
After tonight's murder in the entertainment district of 014 (the 2nd in a week), maybe 014 coppers can stop leaning against a squad car in packs of 6, with tons of product in their hair and rolled up shirt sleeves trying to impress the drunk girls. It's called police work, you know, what you signed up to do? If you need a uniform to get the girl- you don't deserve the girl.
Finally hope is out there. I would like to see some of HQ sgts who've kissed his ass the past 3-4 yrs be put out to rest also. it's embarrassing to witness grown men and woman kissing dick and ass to seem important. It's time
For change at the top. But also in the middle.
Which Charles Ramsey?
The rescuer of Amanda Berry, Gina DeJesus and Michelle Knight in Cleveland?
Or the former Philly and D.C. Police Chief?
the name barb will come up and he will not get the job hell daley ran him out of town the old school police
True. Ramsey is starting October 15. Source from Philadelphia says he's been in Chicago resident hunting. Good move.
Could it be that Trigg passed away and he was just in the funeral visiting.
Wasn't Ramsey responsible for that bullshit CAPS program?
PPO's don't get paid overtime. I believe they get time on the books, that will get denied due manpower needs.
Ramsey is a true cop
If any of the revs were at comstat they will really start screaming. As Cmdr Washington was being berated about clearing corners and putting hands on people he was told by McAssassin that it's OK to stack job for 2-3 hours - "we want to be proactive, not reactive" - and that included domestics. People will start bitching big time and that alone will be a problem for him. When he said the stuff about holding domestics there was a sigh in the room. Remember the last time some cops took their time getting to a domestic. They got fried when the victim was shot dead by her man.
Dead giveaway
If you think Ramsey will be our savior think again.They all make a few change's on the surface. No matter who's in there it's the mayor calling the shots. Ramsey will be another talking head like the others were.Maybe Barb with come back as a Dept Sup like before. Meet the new boss same as the old. Things change for the moment when a new boss get's in and then he take's care of the incompetent buddies and then its the same old same old.Good luck on this one.
Remember boys and girls. You whished the 1st time and look what we got. Now you wish the second time. Do you really think we will get someone that will not be controlled by the strings on the 5th floor?

It's funny how people on this blog think rahm, or daley for that matter, care that a candidate for superintendent has "street credits" with the rank and file.
Just keep depositing my paycheck.

If you are looking for a girl who is looking for a uniform be careful, you just might find her Gomer
SORRY! Just a rumor. According to someone who was actually there. Ramsey is in town for personal reasons not associated with Chicago itself and happened to be in the same restaurant as 9.5
12:18 and 02:56 are both correct.....
He thought he would have a four year glide in Chicago fleshing out that resume but the weather didn't cooperate in 2012. The natives slaughtered each other because it got hot. Original plan was use McCarthy to destroy CPD and stick with him for all four years. He now needs a black hatchet man. Ramsey will need a lot of compensation to carry Rahm's water because he can't collect his pension if he comes back.
He needs to get re-elected on a tidal wave of black votes in 2015, then leave in 2016.
1.) VP for Hillary
2.) If Hillary implodes early, run himself. Why not? Look at his potential opponents. Andy Cuomo? Martin O'Malley? Joe Biden? Lightweights all, and Rahm brings the $$$$ to the race.
3.) If things look really bad, stick out 4 more years in this place, repeat #2 in 2020, or ca$h in with his buddies for awhile.
None of these scenarios are good for us, btw.
If none of your CURRENT leadership is qualified it's time to re-shuffle your current leadership. Out of 10,000 employees you can't find ONE that can lead???
How does this play out !
Exempts are worried about their gold braid 's !
LT's are in line up to suck chuck's ass and bump off a exempt !
SGT'S are happy they won the arbitration, but will give up the spot at the desk for contract !
Detective's will go back to closed area's and clearance rates will stay the same !
Blue shirt no clout PO's will still have to answer the chicken bone domestic call NO CHANGE !
Charles Ramsey is a nice man. I had an off duty incident in 020 about 1983 and he was the WC. He was a new Lieutenant then and was nothing but helpful. Over the years I ran into him occasionally and he would go out of his way to say hello and ask how I was doing. I nice man.
Daley didn't give it to him because he was afraid Ramsey would run for mayor. Here's hoping Chuck's coming home!
Be careful what you wish for.
Come on man, ppo's don't get money only time. Maybe in thirty years when they retire they can cash in but we'll all be gone by then!
It's called police work, you know, what you signed up to do? If you need a uniform to get the girl- you don't deserve the girl.
Well I tell you what Kool Aid Drinker. If the department backed us up like a real police department, maybe we would do some work. I won't do a damn thing but answer my calls. I trust nobody!!
I saw a copper(thinking he had to be a ppo) wearing a white bath towel around his neck down his chest and tucked into his vest on Friday which was a cool day, not shure what that was all about? Can any body elaborate or is that just the new rookie look?
Ramsey would have to forfeit his pension payments while Supt He would want a lot of money, plus moving expenses. I say no dice.
not true
Ramsey would come here because its always been his coveted job! When we were at pres. Bushes inaugural years ago and he gave a speech to all the police dept./agencies he beamed when talking to his CPD brethren.
Rahm might be real pissed at McCarthy when he has to write overtime checks to those PPOs.
----
It's still only Comp-Time, NOT cash.
However, it SHOULD be at time and a half after 40 hors a week according to FLSA (Labor Laws)
Not true...Rahm was seen with Jfled @ ricobenes
9/14/2013 01:26:00 AM
-----
Wrong again !
Rahm and J-Fled were at the PetCo in Rogers Park buying cat liter for his pussy.
Ramsey would have to forfeit his pension payments while Supt He would want a lot of money, plus moving expenses. I say no dice.
----
He would keep getting his pension check.
He would work as a civilian boss with no payments to the pension plan as a SWORN employee per the municipal code.
He is OVER 63 year old.
"Which Charles Ramsey?"
I thought it might be JonBenet Ramsey's dad. I don't know his first name.

Do you have a problem with some of us hitting on pretty girls? Maybe your girlfriend is your own hand.
Maybe the mayor will make a change in leadership for the department, and maybe not. But, one thing for certain will happen, little or no change in the crime rate unless there is massive hiring. If the mayor appoints a new super and the crime does not go down he would be very, very embarrassed. Ramsey is the chief of the Philly PD and take a look at their crime rate. It is higher then Chicago. Philly is not a safe town. Ever been there? Dirty, with drunks on just about every corner.
If the half a finger fuck does this it will be strictly for the black vote. Which will give him another term because everyone that bitches and moans about this shit city's current situation will not bother to cast a vote for change. TYPICAL.

Exactly. Bump. Anyone that thinks the Superintendent is in control of anything is softer than baby shit. You want a better police department, elect a better mayor that is actually pro-police.

9/14/2013 03:55:00 AM
Oh and you forgot girly eye brows.
Ramsey was a new sergeant when I first came on the job in 023. He is a Chicago guy, humble, bright and no nonsense. Whenever I would run into him as he rose up the ladder he would always remember people he knew from the past. His only fault was his relationship with Barb. Daley II could not handle that, nor could his wife, and Matt was too drunk to address it. Anyone who knows Barb knows she is a piece of work, from civilian to exempt with the swipe of a pen. If he sheds that baggage he would be a morale builder. Check out U-Tube for his eulogy for one of his slain officers, it is absolutely beautiful.
Daley didn't give it to him because he was afraid Ramsey would run for mayor. Here's hoping Chuck's coming home!
9/14/2013 12:48:00 AM
You are an idiot. He is not the Chuck you once knew. He will not be good for us. The AA Howdy-Doody is a pos.
Stay tuned, a certain 005th district tact Lt. Is going to gangs south. You heard it hear first
Here's my call for 2014-2015 Rahm Emmanuel, Gery McCarthy, Mike Shields all being replaced. I think everyone has had enough. Wake up Chicago.
Bwaaahaha!! McCompstat, better pack your bags.
:::Philadelphia Police Commissioner:::
-- Since Commissioner Ramsey assumed his position, the city's homicide rate has dropped 20 percent.
-- In the city's nine most dangerous precincts, which account for 65% of homicides and 75% of shootings, homicides are down by over 40 percent.
Sure looks like 'Violent Crime is down' in Philly, huh McJersey.
And iirc Pennsylvania's Gun Laws are a lot less restrictive than in Illinois. Which as I recall you like blaming for almost all of Chicago's murders, those lax gun laws. However, it sure looks like that's not a problem after all, huh McDrunk.

9/14/2013 03:55:00 AM
Honest to God. What a bunch o whining children on this job. Every one of you crying about what someone else is doing. Focus on the real problem. Your elected officials and the fact that we don't vote them out of office.
Daley didn't give it to him because he was afraid Ramsey would run for mayor. Here's hoping Chuck's coming home!
You have to be kidding. Daley afraid to run against Ramsey? What world are you living in?
Here's another factor to consider. Under NYC's successor to Mayor Michael Bloomberg, Police Commissioner (PC) Raymond "Popeye" Kelly will be out.
Check The Next NYPD PC Will Be ???
The problem isn't Gerry...despite his asshattery.
The problem is, as it has always been; the fact that the Police are Run by the 5th floor and the Super has no spine to tell people in City Hall to Back us up or Get out of the way.
A Pro Police Mayor Lets the Chief/Super run the department as it needs to be run baring Federal Investigations.
9/13/2013 10:34:00 PM
Politics and the 5th floor have always been a problem with the Department. However, if you don't think the Garry McCarthy is this Department's biggest problem you aren't paying attention.
He is a megalomaniac who is stuck on this Compstat dogma like it's written on the tablets from on high. He was actually sputtering at the last meeting about how this homicide rate is "THE ONLY THING THAT MATTERS".
That's it in a nutshell. Nothing else matters but his reputation which he thinks is tied to the number of gang bangers killing each other. Robberies, home invasions, attempted rapes of citizens on bike trails, auto thefts and wildings on Michigan Avenue are not important.
His reputation and the reputation of this ridiculous Compstat rests on the numbers of criminals he can prevent from killing each other. Screw you taxpayers. You get nothing.
we are hearing on the fireside that an outsider will be our new boss soon,rahm wants the manning and will use someone with no ties to the cfd.stay safe.
Ramsey would be a good choice for us. He wanted to cut exempt positions years ago , put sworn officers back to street duty .
It's time to change medical plan , let's start with a bank of 300 days after probation , when you use them all , it's day off without pay . 80% of retirees never take 10 days during their career , to many medical abusers.
Wasn't Ramsey one of the biggest supporters of the start of the CAPS program back in the early 90's??...being an old retired copper I can tell you young guys what all older coppers know...CAPS is what started the ball rolling to turn this dept. into what it is now...
Its all about the Black VOTE!
Tiny dancer is renaming street nobody cares about
Building food for less in Engl-Hood
Re doing red-line.
So next step put in an almost Black supe.

TRUTH! It is so embarrassing seeing them posing with the zoolander look and trying to push out their biceps while leaning back like Fonzie. If they only heard the criticism being hurled towards them by the very women they thing they are impressing. I frequent the area often and have never seen them doing police work. In fact, I've actually stopped a theft from auto and a strong armed robbery while they were doing the Fonzie lean a block away and didn't hear or ignored the yells for help from the victim! Get yo shit together and earn your paycheck!
All I can say is that I worked with Charlie YEARS AGO. I don't know what he's like now, people change. I thought he would get the job but I believe he had too much on Daley and was looked over.It stands to reason if Daley didn't want him he knew something{Daley's love interest] or he wouldn't play ball.Either of which would irk the little tiny water head.
I doubt if he would want to work for little raccoon eye's too much class.
Rams didn't get the job last time because of girlfriend issues.
while rahm is at it…….
take out the garbage at the OEMC.
there is a commander, captain, and other high ranking police officers doing civilian jobs.
if these particular upper command don't want to be REAL police, please retire, and let the others have your positions.
He's happy where he's at now. How much in a bloated pay raise from what he's being paid now for him to leave his spot and come back to Chicago? I thought Rahm said he's broke.
Most stay in the job 3 to 4 years. McStats will have 2 in May. If they let him go they will have to do the phony moving on for family or better opportunity because it can't look like the puppet master picked the wrong dummy.
Don't kid yourself that you will be better off with the next guy. They do as they are told and your wellbeing does not enter into it. Guess who liked Cline? All his cronies. My favorite was Dilieonardi he didn't last a year. Byrne had to get rid of him because he would not play ball with the first ward/outfit. The game is rigged, always has been.
Bring back Dirty Ernie to straighten shit out!

jump on the bandwagon and get them installed here.
"...daley ran him out of town the old school police"
9/14/2013 05:44:00 AM
Nope... Ramsey scared the shit out of Daley during the supernintendo beauty pageant that netted us "Uncle Ben" Hillard, the most intellectually indifferent man to "lead" this department.
Not a Ramsey fan...
Definitely not a Hillard fan...
But guess who would've set a better tone for this department?
At least Ramsey could think for himself.
Rahm must be desperate to entertain the notion of Ramsey because Rahm HATES people who can think for themselves...
Especially people who he feels are beneath him.
Like Policemen...
Ramsey IS arguably more of a Policeman than the last two nitwits we've been afflicted with.
How about giving the supts
job to that Arizona sheriff
who arrested those illegal
aliens and made his prisoners to wear those pink
jumpsuits. He seems to be a
no b.s. lawman who feels that offenders should be treated as lawbreakers and not coddled or given a easy
time while serving their time. But then again he probably would not want to come here because the inmates are running the asylums and the jails.
from Wikipedia...
Since Commissioner Ramsey assumed his position, the city's homicide rate has dropped 20 percent. In the city's nine most dangerous precincts, which account for 65% of homicides and 75% of shootings, homicides are down by over 40 percent. Ramsey's tactics have included installing a network of surveillance cameras in the city's most dangerous sections, increasing the number of cops on the beat, and moving police patrols out of their squad cars and onto foot patrols or bicycle patrols
Ramsey asked the Dept of Justice to take over all investigations of police involved shootings in Phily.
And you morons applaud his return.
You don't know how good you got it until you realize how bad it can get.
No offense, guys, but the Chuck Wagon can take leave our fair city, post haste. The man has been fudging the homicide numbers for years - we had over 500 last year, but the "official" number from his office was 331 - to make himself look good.
Sadly, Mayor Squidward keeps falling for it.
When we were in DC for the TABD - world Bank - Ramsey came out an talked to the groups in DuPont circle . Seemed to be a COPS, COP .
Damn. I guess everybody is an asshole to somebody. If Jesus were made Superintendent somebody would call him a whoremongerer. Ramsey was smart and pretty damn fair as a Boss. Daley felt threatened by him which is as good a reason as any for him to have gotten the job. My problem is that everyone Rahm appoints has a tendency to suck ass.
rahm was seen in downtown naperville at the river walk, talking to retired napervile police chief dave dial the great great chief in the history of law enforcement
The poster at 05;44AM had it dead on, of course only us old retired guys know that. Its not his Department anymore nor is it ours different era different tactics as much as some would like to those are from a bygone era, one without cell phone cameras and youtube.
and will never be brought back. Stay safe young guys CYA.

ramsey has some issues
BUT as eight years as chief of Washington, D.C. crime fell 40%
he also made traffic
"checkpoints which made a data base of people not breaking the law and was called invasion of privacy by the police union.
and had issues with the media with the pershing park arrests which he was held personally responsible
the guy is educated and taught at northwestern
seems to know hs shit

Ramsey would have to forfeit his pension payments while Supt He would want a lot of money, plus moving expenses. I say no dice......Its Chicago anything goes
Never worked for the man.Was in a few graduate classes with him.Seemed like an OK Dude.
Whatever.Just get rid of this drunk from the east coast.
He may also be recommending someone else to Rahm.

And in the meantime, lets watch what Rahm says... After all he DOES know how to say one thing, but mean another.
Whatever happened to James Whigham?
I think I would rather him as Superintendent than Charlie Ramsey.
5400 block of south Sayre 1830 hrs 2 M-1's display a gun from their vehicle with a bogus temp tag on off duty. WTF
What are all them reverends, community activists and black aldermen not happy about? All the crime & smartphone thievery occuring on the CTA Red line and along Michigan Avenue? Probably not - that only happens to white people and tourists.
The more things change,the more they stay the same...Geez,does this mean that Barb McDonald and Ron Huberman will be tagging along?
Wrong, Steve Georgas will be the next Supt. He won great reviews for his planning of the NATO detail and as much as all you haters don't like him, he is a worker, he is just as good as any other choice, and better. He has the eye of big bosses in many federal agencies and Obama has respect for him too.
Rahmbo was also seen dining at Gio's in Bridgeport with Eddie Johnson recently... Hmmm.
That's odd because Charles Ramsey has been in Miami Florida all week and last weekend.. Myth Busted

And he just 'happened' to run into Rahm, who invited him to share a meal. Right.
"Dead give away....dead give away..."
It wont make any difference to the avg cop on the street whether the Supt.is McBushmills, Ramsey or Mickey Mouse...
O.T.
Why is the FOP fighting to get FTOs D-3 pay in the next contract?
Just because they have to ride with 2 and sometimes 3 recruits does not necessary mean they have more responsibility then anyone else in patrol.
A meeting place on Montrose?...ha ha ha, "Toots" at Central and Montrose is gone, the rest of Montrose is crap Ha ha ha ha

Rahm might be real pissed at McCarthy when he has to write overtime checks to those PPOs.

It's still only Comp-Time, NOT cash.
However, it SHOULD be at time and a half after 40 hors a week according to FLSA (Labor Laws)
9/14/2013 08:28:00 AM<<<
I think you are wrong, after so many hours it must be time and a half CA$H.
There is no way around it.
And why hasn't Shields/FOP put up a fuss that this preplanned overtime didn't go to non-probationary officers according to seniority.
When I came on the job we got hour for hour in time only overtime. If you didn't use it and have over 40 hours on the books when you went on furlough you lost it.
Screw Rahm make him pay and hire more officers.
Overheard conversation:
One white shirt, "Looks like McCarthy has stepped on his dick again."
2nd white shirt, "Nah, he's Irish it's too short."
Just saw 9.5 eating with Frank Limon at Pepe's

The poster at 05;44AM had it dead on, of course only us old retired guys know that. Its not his Department anymore nor is it ours different era different tactics as much as some would like to those are from a bygone era, one without cell phone cameras and youtube.
and will never be brought back. Stay safe young guys CYA.
9/14/2013 02:10:00 PM
Gotta disagree. While we did our careers and left, the Dept and policing evolved. But, Ramsey never left the game and has worked every day of the evolution, so he knows what he's walking into. For retirees, yes, it would be a culture shock.
Chuck is a gem and always was. Copper' - copper. Worked for him in Narcotics when 60 guys brought more weight in a week then O'Grady' hair gel police do in three years.
The Ram is without a doubt one of the best CPD ever had.
Hillard was nothing but a donkey all the way. He made the worse of the worse commander' anyone ever seen. He should of retired as a patrolman, period. Daley wanted someone stupid, and he got it in Hillard.
Hillard is a hater and has the personality of an alley cat.
Jody Weis had more knowledge in his little toe compared to Terry.
Teey and the curent drunk supt are one of a kind.
Stay safe to all.
An old retired guy.
Ramsey was a new sergeant when I first came on the job in 023. He is a Chicago guy, humble, bright and no nonsense. Whenever I would run into him as he rose up the ladder he would always remember people he knew from the past. His only fault was his relationship with Barb. Daley II could not handle that, nor could his wife, and Matt was too drunk to address it. Anyone who knows Barb knows she is a piece of work, from civilian to exempt with the swipe of a pen. If he sheds that baggage he would be a morale builder. Check out U-Tube for his eulogy for one of his slain officers, it is absolutely beautiful.
9/14/2013 09:09:00 AM
Daley could not have hated it so much, he hired Barb McD to head two city departments, plus her protege' was hired for two departments and chief of staff so.... Your info is incorrect.
from Wikipedia...
Since Commissioner Ramsey assumed his position, the city's homicide rate has dropped 20 percent. In the city's nine most dangerous precincts, which account for 65% of homicides and 75% of shootings, homicides are down by over 40 percent. Ramsey's tactics have included installing a network of surveillance cameras in the city's most dangerous sections, increasing the number of cops on the beat, and moving police patrols out of their squad cars and onto foot patrols or bicycle patrols

Charles Ramsey and Sgt. Al Powell...dopplegangers!
Jim Whigham for superintendent and I'll stay until I turn 63.
I hear Sgt S Osmond is next in line to be super. Rahm saw the way he handled himself in front of the camera on the National Geographic Chi-raq episode and was impressed.
Garry is a white minority himself. It seems that Garry would be a win win situation for Mr. Rahm. What is not to like about him?
Good point actually. However, The white vote isn't united and isn't worth much.

Hahahhahahhahhaha
PPOs can take money after 12 months!
If Ramsey takes the job, he will regret it. This is not the same department he left. There is almost no meat on the sun-dried carcass.
Unless Ramsey takes the ballerina by the bells and squeezes them for some real power to run the department HIS way.
To the original poster, THIS says it all! No one is going to come in here and be able to change the CPD for the better with all the damn political interference that exists in it today. It's just a huge cluster**k. If I were Ramsey, I wouldn't even consider taking on such an uphill shitstorm at his advanced age. It's just not worth it, Chuck, move on!

Georgas represents everything that's wrong with the CPD today. He was way too young when he was appointed cmdr of 018, and he's just as clueless today. Obama has respect for him? I'm willing to bet the president doesn't even know who he is. But thanks for sharing the above post Steve, it definitely got a few chuckles from those who didn't vomit when they read it!
SCC,
Do you recall when they Lowered the Mandatory age for Retirement to age 63? If I am not mistaken they changed the rule after Townsend left. That being said there were several bosses that were forced off the job due to the new Mandatory Retirement. News reports at that time said approx. 100 officers were going to be affected city wide...
Has Charles Ramsey attained the ripe old of 63? If so, City Hall would have to move to throw out the ordinance governing Mandatory Retirement age, and their Not about to do that! Ramsey was Born in 1950... So if he's not 63 he will be by Dec 31 of this year if my math is correct...
I was in DC for the last Bush inauguration. Charles Ramsey was giving us a pep talk during the swearing in, he mentioned that he was Phil Clines partner for years and talked about a funny search warrant. It makes sense to have a Chicago Cop as supe.
just saw td 9.5, maurer and his dog willie, and sullivan having breakfast at jack's on touhy. the dog had a seat at the table and was wearing a vest emblazoned morale service dog. mcstreetlights better pack his bags!
OMG... Just saw tiny dancer & cooter sharing a happy meal at McDonalds.

She took care of her sex offender son who was a sergeant in call back for 5 years.
They PAID OFF the victim to drop the charges and her son is back full duty in 014.
Anyone else would be in the penitentiary and would be listed as a convicted sex offender for the REST of their lives.
Only in this CORRUPT city.
I ran into Ramsey at Cavatappi in Evergreen Park like a year ago and spoke to him. He is from Chicago and was visiting back then. Told me he has zero ambition of returning and said Chicago has it's problems and he is done with the Windy City.

The meeting was sociable only. Rahm and Ramsey were members of the same Ballerina troup that performed "Swan Lake"
JOHN said:
Charles Ramsey is a nice man. I had an off duty incident in 020 about 1983 and he was the WC. He was a new Lieutenant then and was nothing but helpful. Over the years I ran into him occasionally and he would go out of his way to say hello and ask how I was doing. I nice man."
Thanks for the memories, JOHN but that's the way EVERYONE for the most part was back in 1983...guys and gals had each others backs Times have changed! Especially over the last 10-15 years. Speaking of years-how old is Ramsey anyway??? Go retire for Chrissake! and take JOHN with you.
Any new supe needs to mandate the OW Wilson contract...
I run it my way. Pols hands off, you too mayor, and we get what we promote as well as spend up front.
start fresh. we have a great core of dedicated pos.
WWRD? What would Ramsey Do? he even he took the job cant do anything,with no coppers being hired in rapid numbers, no money rahm ordered CPD to cut 10% across the board, wants fire to take a 7 1/2% pay cut and lose holiday-duty pay! Yep Ramsey would be like a deer in the headlights, it would not change anything,except maybe more respect for the street coppers!

Shut up Jerry. If not for mama paying off your victim you'd be a registered sex offender.
It does not matter who the Superintendent is. We saw the true McCarthy during the G8 conference protests. Rham had no clue on what to do. All the anti-crime initiatives are Rham speaking through McCarthy. Bottom line, the Superintendent of Police is the Mayor's puppet. Respect the rank if not the people who hold them. Be fair, use common sense and stay safe.
Just saw Rham having breakfast with Breczek at Jaacks Rest. On Touhy in Skokie.. Hmmmmmmmmm ???
My favorite was Dilieonardi he didn't last a year. Byrne had to get rid of him because he would not play ball with the first ward/outfit. The game is rigged, always has been.
9/14/2013 12:02:00 PM
Jane Byrne dumped him because he was an arrogant, incompetent Bozo that loved the camera as much as the current one.
The difference between Janie and Rahm is: Mayor Byrne new she made a huge mistake and replaced him. Rahm's fragile ego will not allow him to admit he made another huge mistake in appointing McCarthy and Brizzard.
Bring back Fred Bosse for Supe.
9/15/2013 01:40:00 AM
Lt Fred Bosse would be great. He was a great leader for SOS and SWAT. He started the first SWAT team at CPD. The SWAT team then known as HBT was far better then what we have now. The current Commander of SWAT Lt. MM has completely destroyed the SWAT team. He is the worst leader for SWAT along with all the meritous Sgt's. The morale is terrible at SWAT and everyone loved Fred Bosse. He was the Real Police!!!

Ramsey would have to forfeit his pension payments while Supt He would want a lot of money, plus moving expenses. I say no dice......Its Chicago anything goes
No, he's not forfeiting anything... It is part of his agreement with Rahm.
They are converting the Superindent's job back to a civilian Commisioner's job like they had when O.W. Wilson was brought in the 60's.
That along with all the Bureau heads will be Civilian Deputy Commissioner (Superintendent) positions like they have in NY which will allow the City to bring back retired bosses with some actual experience to shape back the department into what it was...
The only problem is if they don't appoint the right bosses then your going to have a bunch of political hacks double dipping (getting a city pension and a civilian city pay check)...
Time shall tell and good luck to McCarthy and his Regime.
It does not matter who the Superintendent is. We saw the true McCarthy during the G8 conference protests.

The Liberals, the Reverends (have you even been to a church where you are making claims about what the sermons are about)...ahhhhh, blame it on the rain while you're at it.
This city is beyond salvage. And this job and any waning morale that might have lingered from the pre-J-Fled days is on life support.
The pride that once accompanied being CPD has been methodically asphyxiated by liberalism, socialism and leftwing ideologies.
By design we have become the enemy in the eyes of the ignorant masses pacified by generations of entitlements. The man handing out the gub'mint cheese does so once allegiance is pledged and the ballot marked democRAT.
If Ramsey - or any other minority - is brought in to run the show, rest assured it'll be to placate the very same cassock-clad assholes preaching anti-police rhetoric during their weekly sermons.
If you thought the Cline/Meeks embrace or McDaysAreNumbered St. Sabina "government-sponsored racism" rant was theatrical, just wait until "one of their own" is back at the top of the CPD foodchain.
The more things change, the more they stay the same.

The true McCarthy was very adept at doling out bottles of water to thirsty patrolmen.
Not just 014, most of the North side in general. All you have to do is drive around to notice.
It's funny, you bid up there to get away from doing work (or you get 'lucky' and are assigned there after PPO status) now its coming to you . 014, 016, 018. Time to step up.
I know, the Dept doesn't back you up so you're not doing shit right? You mean they won't cover for your glaring screw ups? You just answer your jobs?
How about the Bum that has to work the beat where you live. Wife and kid home alone. Do you want them to just sit around and wait for the Home invasion call or do you want them to actively patrol the area in hopes of deterring such an event?
It's not about drinking cool aid , being a company man and all the BS lines people throw out. It's called doing what you are paid to do. Perhaps you need to go over the paper work you signed off on when you were hired. I don't recall seeing the part that said other than answering radio jobs you can just hang out in the station, sleep, go shopping talk on the phone, pretend like nothing is going on around you.
After tonight's murder in the entertainment district of 014 (the 2nd in a week), maybe 014 coppers can stop leaning against a squad car in packs of 6, with tons of product in their hair and rolled up shirt sleeves trying to impress the drunk girls. It's called police work, you know, what you signed up to do? If you need a uniform to get the girl- you don't deserve the girl.
Rahm was just asking Ramsey to suggest a name to put on the next short list. He needs help making it look like he's gonna actually have a process.
How 'bout when the new Chief of Detroit P.D. is done overseeing their city's complete descent to total meltdown, we just bring him here. At least that way we'll have someone with hands-on experience dealing with utter collapse.
Interesting article on the poor guy... they just brought him in to do inventory on their sinking hull, which apparently had tons of new goodies showered upon them from the feds to the tune of millions of dollars in grants for things nobody knew about.

Ramsey is just like McDrunk,going from Dept to Dept the last few years because he could't get the top spot in his home town.. Not liked anywhere

Bossey was great!! HBT was the real SWAT team not to mention the Real Police!!! We used to roll and they feared SOS. Not only did we make arrests but we also were a great HBT team not like the clowns they have now.
All lies. Ramsey was bumming for change and Rahm felt bad for him and invited him in for a meal, off kids menue only of course.
I would love Chuck Ramsey to come back to Chicago to run for Mayor and not as Superintendent. Besides this past weekend I observed Rahm 9.5 and Harley Schinker at Freddie's at 31st St and Union. 9.5 was eating one slice of cheese pizza and Harley had three combos, large fries, watermelon Italian Ice and a large grape pop.
Bill Kushner for Superintendent!
