Chicago police chief: We’ll shoot licensed civilians with guns

Chicago; Murder capitol of the United States, too bad they have an idiot for a Police Chief. And I thought Sheriff Joe was stupid......

Chicago police chief: We’ll shoot licensed civilians with guns
January 9, 2013

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.

Like that happens in 49 other states (or 56 other states if you listen to Barack Obama).

Here’s the words from the Chicago’s Chief Street Light Asssassin, as reported by News in Black:


“I don’t care if they’re licensed legal firearms, people who are not highly trained… putting guns in their hands is a recipe for disaster. So 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 and we’re going to have tragedies as a result of that. I’m telling you right up front.”

How is that different than police officers are now trained, Mr. Streetlight Assassin?

Here’s what Second City Cop, a blog by and for Chicago Police Officers thought of McCarthy’s remarks:

…Rahm and McShitForBrains continue to push their belief that Illinois residents in general and Chicago denizens in particular, are completely incompetent when it comes to gun ownership. Let’s be real – how often do you think you’ll be running into an actual legally carrying citizen? Those aren’t the people that the police usually encounter. And if you aren’t treating every traffic stop as one where a gun might be on scene in any event, you’re not being the police.

And not to denigrate the Department, but we’ll bet a sizable percentage of Illinois citizens not only know guns better than the police, they can outshoot them 60-to-70% of the time, 99% of the time if we’re talking long guns.

Remember, McKillTheCitizens was documented to have been shooting out streetlights when he carried a gun in New York – is that really the sort of asshole who should be telling citizens they can’t have guns after a year of 500+ homicides, 2,500+ shootings and a January that is already 200% ahead of last years dismal showing?

WOW!!! What a tool. Sounds like he wants to be a modern day Wyatt Earp. People like this make me feel like any day and licensed, law abiding citizens, may shoot back and all hell breaks loose.

Just a snippet

Quote:
1. Gary McCarthy was found “guilty” in March 2006 over an traffic altercation he had in 2005 with two New Jersey police officers. A traffic court judge ruled that Gary McCarthy had blocked vehicular traffic with his police-issued car while he and his wife confronted two plainclothes members of the Palisades Interstate Police at a gas station along the Palisades Interstate Parkway. The officers in question had just issued a summons to McCarthy’s 19-year-old daughter, who was driving another car and became verbally confrontational toward the two police officers whom in essence were enforcing the law. When Gary McCarthy had arrived on scene he was clearly irate and violently confrontational and had to be grabbed by the two police officers whom also confiscated McCarthy’s firearm and handcuffed him as well as restrained his wife when she attempted to grab the gun from the two police officers. The judge fined McCarthy $200 for blocking traffic.

In addition he hangs out with Rahmbo and Obamas good friend Father Pfleger

Most big city poice chiefs are political hacks and big gun control advocates.
It's largely a diffeent story with sheriffs and small towns, particularly in the West.

But if you are looking for how it's gonna roll for the next 3.5 years, look to Shitcago. McMuffin is hanging on for dear life.

It's remarkable that these types of statements are not directed at criminals.

Yup, good point. Before the shall-issue law, when open-carry was the only legal recourse, the state SC had already ruled that there was no underlying criminality and the AG had issued advisories to all departments on the subject, Milwaukee (WI's version of Chicago) had their own take. The MPD Stasi Chief Ed Flynn issued public orders that anyone seen carrying would be taken down violently, and proned out at gunpoint. These people still exist, and they consolidate their guv monopoly as well as J. Edgar Hoover did.

A friend out in Wyoming likes to make the distinction between a law-enforcement officer and a peace officer. Pretty much my take as well.
