Chicago police chief: WE'LL SHOOT LICENSED CIVILIANS WITH GUNS
LiveLeak ^ | January 10, 2013 | LiveLeak

Posted on 01/10/2013 5:11:01 PM PST by gwjack

Chicago’s illustrious Police Chief, Superintendent or SuperNintendo (whichever you wish to call him) got on a local radio station in Chicago and told it like he perceives it. He said that citizens licensed to carry could be, and indeed predicted they would be shot by Chicago Police Officers.

Somebody takes this psycho’s gun away now before he shoots his mother.

Damned. I thought we had stupid police chiefs in Philadelphia (since Rizzo), Baltimore since the early 60’s, and DC (since the beginning of time).

Chicago has now outscored them all on the “Dumb as Shit” meter.

The citizen has now become the police’s top shooting target while the gangbangers and Obama voters continue on with their deadly rampages almost unchallenged.

Rahm and Obama: “Yes you did” make Chicago the biggest shithole in America. Proud of yourselves, huh?

And crime victims, most of you voted for them!! Lesson learned yet, before someone kills you on your front porch?

Billy Badass talks tough about taking out law-abiding citizens while murder gangs and robbery mobs run wild in his city.

What a loser.

Police chiefs in big cities are essentially political appointees and cophouse politicians themselves. Rank and file officers usually ignore them and consider them dangerous because they never really have their backs.

I think this police chief got his badge from a Cracker Jack box.

He claims licensed civilians aren't trained well enough. Have you ever seen a news report about police shootouts where they tell you how many shots were fired...like 30 rounds expended for two hits?

We already know of a Georgia stay-at-home mom who hit an intruder with five out of six shots from a .38 revolver,I don't think many cops could match that.

Also my 73 year old eyes get a workout at the range at least once a month with my 1911,.357/.38 Special snubbie and a Ruger Vaquero in .45 Colt...although it is getting a little expensive...I'm considering re-loading.

My best groups are with my snubbie...a 2 1`/2 inch total titanium Taurus...3 inch groups at 25 yards...not too bad for an old fart like me!

I’ll train our officers that there is a concealed carry law, but when somebody turns with a firearm in their hand the officer does not have an obligation to wait to get shot to return fire

It's already SOP.

Why do these media sources have to over dramatize?

I’ve tried to warn people over the many years that the cops will be easily turned into a Bolshevik militia with the principle mission of terrorizing the ordinary person into obedience.

Even today, you are more likely see cops focused on “law-abiding” people than criminals —largely because the law-abiding don’t shoot back.

Chicago Police beat up unarmed women. Why wouldn't they shoot legally armed citizens?

Completely believable. Liberals dream of the day when they can send their jack booted thugs in to confiscate firearms and murder anyone who resists.

Don’t ever forget that the police don’t carry guns to protect you; they carry guns to protect themselves!

Shouldn’t we (the people) be able to protect ourselves? Of course!

That is why I qualified, and carry CCW licenses from 4 states. Oh, the licenses don’t give me protection; it is what they permit me to carry that protects me and others.

“largely because the law-abiding don’t shoot back” I’m willing to bet that is quickly becoming no longer true.

could that be considered a declaration of war against gun owners?

This is the guy who was in church attacking Sarah Palin.

*McCarthy blasted the NRA, telling parishioners that their communities have paid the price while the gun manufacturers are getting “rich and living in gated communities.”

And he told an anecdote of just one night with the New York Police Department. After returning home from investigating a pair of shootings, he said he flipped on the television to relax, only to find “Sarah Palin’s Alaska” being broadcast.

“She was caribou hunting, and talking about the right to bear arms,” he said. “Why wasn’t she at the crime scene with me?”*

So now the Police do not protect the populace,
but are there to exterminate them.

So it would appear.

I’m going to say something that’ll piss off a few folks here but dead Chicago cops are a mixed blessing; shoot back civilians.

It’s the rotten 98% that give the other 2% a bad name.

when I was a municipal police officer back in the 50’s, we were referred to as “peace officers” and keeping the peace was our job with six shooter revolvers and billy clubs. We had few problems.

..."the officer does not have an obligation to wait to get shot to return fire."

In other words, corrupt Chicago cops have more reasonable 'rules of engagement' than our sons & daughters in Obama's wars in the Middle East.

Nice...
