I heard that job on Wabansia too. These scanners are great. Yet they say they found the gun on the ground? And have four offenders? Four guys with one gun? Sounds like police nonsense to me.

Scanners are cool and I even hear the cops yelling at suspects at times.

To: everyone who gripes about the Police, slow police response times...

Call your alderman. Inundate him with requests as to why police service is so slow. Then pick up any newspaper in the city and see that they are reducing the number of police on the street, and doing so by attrition. (50 hired yet 150 retired etc).

Everyone who has the time to gripe here has the time to shoot off an email or make a phone call demanding more police be hired.

If nothing changes, then vote out the incumbent and start over. Folks, city changes start at the grass roots level and move up. You have a say, as a voter. You have a voice. Utilize it.
