If this is what you believe I believe, then you are mistaken. There is a difference between sending advisors to train, reform, and make a police force better, and sending in the National Guard to replace the police force.quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

"Of the 25 officers with the most complaints, a dozen have been involved in recent lawsuits that either ended in settlements or judgments against the city, costing taxpayers at least $4.3 million, according to an online database compiled by The Chicago Reporter analyzing city payouts from just 2012 to 2015. The manner in which the police have dealt with citizen complaints — particularly those involving allegations of excessive force — is at the center of the U.S. Justice Department's ongoing civil rights probe into whether police have systematically trampled citizens' rights. The investigation began in December shortly after the release of the now-infamous dashcam video showing a police officer shooting 17-year-old Laquan McDonald 16 times in 2014. Emanuel has responded to the political fallout of the McDonald scandal by announcing changes aimed at staying ahead of federal authorities who could seek to enforce reforms. His plan for a new oversight agency, the Civilian Office of Police Accountability, includes significant changes in the way complaints are handled — including allowing investigators to consider officers' complaint histories in investigating new allegations and restricting the process of mediation that led to hundreds of cases being resolved with light punishments. The data release on Wednesday came three months after an Illinois appeals court unanimously ruled the disciplinary records must be released under the Freedom of Information Act." http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/watchdog/ct-chicago-police-complaints-met-20161013-story.html "CHICAGO — Racism has contributed to a long pattern of institutional failures by the Chicago Police Department in which officers have mistreated people, operated without sufficient oversight, and lost the trust of residents, a task force appointed by Mayor Rahm Emanuel has found. The report, issued on Wednesday, was blistering, blunt and backed up by devastating statistics. Coincidentally, it was released as city leaders were installing a new, permanent superintendent for the Chicago Police Department. “C.P.D.’s own data gives validity to the widely held belief the police have no regard for the sanctity of life when it comes to people of color,” the task force wrote. “Stopped without justification, verbally and physically abused, and in some instances arrested, and then detained without counsel — that is what we heard about over and over again.” The report reinforces complaints made for decades by African-American residents who have said they were unfairly singled out by officers without justification on a regular basis, then ignored when they raised complaints." https://www.nytimes.com/2016/04/14/us/chicago-police-dept-plagued-by-systemic-racism-task-force-finds.html?_r=0 https://theintercept.com/2016/10/06/in-the-chicago-police-department-if-the-bosses-say-it-didnt-happen-it-didnt-happen/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
