The Minister Louis Farrakhans son, Mustapha, is making headlines in Chicago and the surrounding suburbs after some intriguing claims were made in a Chicago Sun-Times article on Sunday. A registered police officer with the Harvey Police Department in Harvey, Illinois, Mustapa allegedly hasnt worked a shift in more than four years. However, thats not whats raising eyebrows.

leave the heavy lifting to your betters.
The idea of a constitutional republic is dead. We are the subjects of a dictatorship.
It would be interesting to know, in a depressing sort of way, how many other patronage jobs there are in the Chicago PD or other municipal agencies.
I mean, I’m sure every city and town of every size has a few of those. But I’m betting Chi-town has considerably more than is the average. Lots of places to tuck away an Alderman’s cousin or state senator’s financial backer in a sprawling urban government like the one Chicago has...
Looks like Harvey IL is one of those places that has great law enforcement ...

Within Illinois, more than 99% of the communities have a lower crime rate than Harvey.In fact, after researching dangerous places to live, NeighborhoodScout found Harvey to be one of the top 100 most dangerous cities in the U.S.A."
