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.

Oh yeah, I bet thousands will use hollow points targetting your deputies chest then aim at their heads if you decide to “play” with God given liberties.

“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.”

They might really want to think long and hard before they go down this road. Police aren't the only ones who can find out where a citizen lives. Lawlessness begets lawlessness.

"I think he has opened himself up to criminal and civil charges if one of his cops does shoot a CCW-holder for carrying a gun."

If someone was shot only because he was a CCW holder and was carrying a gun, it would be murder. But that is not what the Chief said. He narrowed it to a circumstance in which someone with a gun turned toward an officer. Lacking further information, the officer doesn't have the time to determine the weapons carry status of the person, nor does he have time to determine if the person is a witness or suspect. I can't think of any communities where officers will withhold fire if someone is pointing a gun at them. No Chief or Sheriff will give such an order to their officers.

Now, all that being said, I consider the statement to be a tantrum threat. He needn't have made such a statement at all.

Does that mean if a cop turns toward me with his gun out I get to shoot him?

Your post is well thought out. I think that about now, a lot of Police Chiefs and Sheriff’s are cursing the Chicago Police Chief for such a stupid statement.

I guess the jackass was stating that citizens are on notice that police officers in the city of Chicago are to be considered armed and dangerous and citizens should shoot them on sight to prevent themselves from being shot?? Is that what the liberal jackass was proclaiming???

No. You aren’t. My Dad is retired LEO and still does Range Master/training for local law enforcement.

Guys like this aren’t the norm, but they do exist. Some entire departments have this same kind of institutional rot.

Y’all are gonna need to make some hard choices. Soon.

“for as rino and moderate and big money and elitist Romney might have been, he wouldn't be destroying the constitution and allowing citizens to be threatened by hack police bullheads....”
____________________________________________

To justify their selfishness and stupidity; their only justification for not voting for Romney is to draw the idiotic conclusion that “Hey, Obama and Romney are the exact same thing!”

They know full well that if Romney had been elected, we wouldn't be facing the tyranny that we're currently facing. It was more important for them on election night to stay home, or vote 3rd party, with delusions of what a great Patriot they were. They helped ensure Obama won a second term. Selfish bastards! Obama appreciates the help of these true "Patriots."!

I routinely bash LE on this forum , just from my personal lifetime experience, I label LE as “Revenue Enhancement Agents” (I have been in morning meetings where the oncoming shift gets Rahh Rahhed into looking for Tourists cause that is where the money is)

You seem to be different... tell me how LE “Stops Crime”, better yet tell me why I should ever even speak to LE.

All of the LE I know thinks “Anyone that is not LE is Guilty of something, just have to find it”

I’m old ... I still remember the “Protect and Serve” and I miss those days. Example of today’s LE ... Last Year I was pulled over for failure to Signal ... and as I told the Officer “There is no one behind me, no one in front of me, no one to the left of me and I saw you 3 blocks to the right of me waiting at the Red Light, so just who in the Hell am I signalling for?”

His response ... after detaining and searching my truck was “Well you know that when the Sun goes down the Cockroaches come out”

The Man in the Passenger seat was related to the Mayor... we were not even moving again and he is on the phone ... It pissed me off that he made that call, it pisses me off even more that you have to be LE or related to Politicians to be just left alone.

I know fishing when I see it, I know assholes when I meet them and I know what is wrong when I have to deal with it.

LE better get a grip and pick a side.

TT

PS Thank you for your Service in the Marine Corps

You’d think a police chief would be more interested in shooting criminals... but that’s probably a ‘no-no’ in a city as corrupt as Chicago... ( a city run by liberal elites with a murder rate higher than most war zones)

Here’s an article published in Pravda warning Americans NOT to give up their guns. It’s the truth - how Russians were murdered after giving up their guns. It’s our future if we fall for liberal elite lies... Read it and weep.

Americans never give up your guns

I can think of an instance when cops opened fire on a guy with a CCW as he was walking out of Walmart.
