Given the rather butch appearance of many female police officers, I would prefer it if they didn’t shake their bras.

It might be a fun thing to do with the right policewomen but how is it going to help the murder rate?

This thread has officially been derailed.

Chicago does not have a police problem. They have a culture problem and no amount of chair shuffling at the public safety building will fix it.

The police can’t stop it or slow it down, all they can do is respond........

But department records also show that, through March 18, overall crime has dropped 10 percent throughout the city compared with the same period in 2011

With 114 drug related murders to date, the number has to drop.

Let the thugs fight it out then arrest the survivors..........
