Chicago official, on bagpipe mourning ritual for slain officer: 'We don't have time for this s---!'

It seems the Chicago police department's officers have more than one reason to turn their backs on Mayor Lori Lightfoot and the wokester freaks running that crime-plagued city.

This Chicago Sun-Times story here is beyond appalling:

Chicago police officers upset with Mayor Lori Lightfoot over her reform policies are also directing their anger at the Chicago Police Department's second-in-command.

First Deputy Police Supt. Eric Carter infuriated officers gathered Saturday night at the Cook County medical examiner's office to give their slain colleague, Ella French, a final send-off.

Ignoring a sacred ritual, Carter impatiently declared: "We don't have 20 minutes for this s---." He demanded the Chicago Fire Department ambulance bearing French's body be taken directly into the medical examiner's office, skipping the Emerald Society's traditional playing of bagpipes.

"We're not waiting on the bagpipes. Go ahead and get the vehicle inside," Carter is heard saying on a recording.

"Take it all the way inside. Do not stop."

No time. Just enough to cover defunding police, embracing Socialism and slandering Chicago’s white citizens. So busy.

China doesn’t appreciate their tools of communism either. Once they are no longer useful they don’t care anymore. They are just a tool, not even considered as human.

Welcome to their mind set now being shared in Chicago.

Maybe the police officers need to have “peaceful demonstrations” every night like BLM.

FWIW

The douchebag Carter eventually permitted the bagpipes to play, but said to “speed it up,” according to the news outlet.

I bet he would not have said that if the cop killed was black.

Obviously he’s been highly decorated in his career with CPD. Poor guy on the right has nothing.

He’s not familiar with the routine - after all, there are no bagpipes in Wakanda,

Those are Participation ribbons.
No mask, bLack privilege oozing from every pore topped off by the Do You Know Who I Am attitude.
Never been a real cop a day in his life.

....was thinking the same thing....these self-obsessed bureaucrats look like some tin-pot third-world-country dictators when they wear all of that “fruit salad,” as we used to call it in the service......
