Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Ill.), who wrote a letter asking the Department of Justice (DOJ) to investigate Chicago Police policies in December, recently said the windy citys law enforcement is holding back.
In coverage of the 44 people killed or injured in last weekends shootings in Chicago, WGN-TV reports:
U.S. Sen. Dick Durbin feels the spike in shootings could be related in part to low officer morale, as the Department of Justice investigates the police department.I think theyre holding back now in fear of video cameras, DNA, and losing a job over a mistake they might make, Durbin said.

Enforcing the law is racist, Dick.
You mean like the DoJ is ‘holding back’ in its prosecution of Hillary on ServerGate, or the de facto (and self-admitted) violation of the Public Records Act of 1950 making her ineligible to hold public office? You mean that kind of “holding back”, Dick?
“I think theyre holding back now in fear of video cameras, DNA, and losing a job over a mistake they might make, Durbin said.”
And who created the environment in which that fear was sown, Dick?
..I think theyre holding back now in fear of video cameras, DNA, and losing a job over a mistake they might make...
In that case,investigate Black Lives Matter.
Ya think?
Of course, our police should not be so afraid of losing their jobs or of civil prosecution that they cower in the corner rather than apprehend criminals.

Thank you, John Madden, for that insightful report. Now back to the game.
The DA's office claims an entire agency would have to be created to download video, review and transcribe it, redact what the unions and the city deems "too sensitive for public release", and then administer / archive the data files.
A shirt pocket pen which records video and audio costs $150 on-line. I don't leave home without it.
DNA?
Losing their jobs, Dick? I’m sure they’re more fearful of the prison terms Obama and your party wants to give them.
Chicago looking a lot like the Detroit from Robocop.
I hope the honorable senator/fixture/career politician is worried about his own job.
Dick Durbin showed his true colors during Abu Girabe
If Rahm put a bounty on the head of Little Dick Durbin, I’m pretty sure there would be plenty of energy amongst Cook County’s finest.
Burboun, I mean Burpin, I mean Durbin said that?
The left wants the latter scenario, so as to make it easier to federalize all police and utterly remove all accountability.
Damn Durbin, dumber than a bag of hammers. DNA? Wth is he yammering about?
Thanks rahm, fine job you’ve done screwing up the city - putz
And Baltimore. Only because the Police aren't taking too many chances with their jobs.
Oh those dirty rotten po-pos Dickie. Investigate them for too much force then investigate them for too little force. Gawd, what a miserable piece of pure fecal matter you are.
