    Things that annoy me

    I see where certain segments of Chicago's population are up in arms about the shooting of the illegal by an Ice agent who was being run down by the suspect. Of course the deceased was a great father, blah, blah blah. But this is what fries me. The news is stating that the shooting occurred the...

    Some happy news coming out of Ferguson, Missouri. Remember Ferguson and the riots that followed after the police shooting of michael brown. Well I'm over joyed to report the shooting and killing of dorian johnson. He was the person with michael brown the day he was shot. He also was the person...

    When you look at the big picture these protesters are such a minority they should be given zero attention. And I would be certain that the ones protesting are so low on the social ladder their thoughts just don't matter. Yet it is the leading story on the news. The other day in St louis the...

    Watching these demonstrations against ICE and people waving the Mexican flag. Go back to Mexico. How can anyone be against people breaking the law? Also listening to this this complete idiot mayor of Chicago ranting about how Trump is wrong in what he is doing in sending the National Guard and...

    My favorite opening scene in a movie was from Full Metal Jacket. Where the Marine recruits are sitting in the boot camp barber shop getting their heads cut to stubs and the song being played was "Good Bye my Sweetheart, Hello Vietnam" And immediately goes to Sgt Hartman yelling at the recruits...

    Illinois has got to have the worst politicians in the country. Senators durbin & duckworth. Gov pritzer, and the worst of al the mayor of Chicago brandon johnson. And I thought the former mayor lori lightfoot was obscene. This guy tops the list.

    Naked Gun

    Watched the new Naked Gun movie at the theatre the other day. It is suppose to be a spinoff of the original Leslie Nielson Naked Gun movies. I was always a great fan of the originals but this new one don't even come close. I watched one of the originals last night and I laughed out loud about...

    Funny I seen that video clip and thought the same thing. To be honest I have mixed feelings about women umpires, referees in men's pro sports. But what I do have a problem with the NHL Seattle Kracken have a female assistant coach. I'm sure she fits right in in the locker room. I can see it now...

    Speaking of jeans. Remember when in the late 70's, early 80's designer jeans were a must for any fashion conscious person. Calvin Klein, Vanderbilt, were a must and they were not cheap. In actuality you were paying all that extra money for the designer label on the jeans. I confess I owned a few...

    How about on the local news, they will go to the inner city (the hood) and talk to a person who started a vegetable garden on a vacant lot and make it sound like the tide has turned for those people living there. They now have fresh vegetables. They could get fresh vegetables from the area's...

    How about the one for diabetes where all these fat people are dancing around singing about this particular drug. I would say loose some weight you might not need it! There is this one shaved headed actor that must have every disease known to man. I have seen him in about 3 or 4 different...

    Any one interested in a couple of I what thought were the best lines I heard while on the job. Me and my partner received a call for "a shooting". Upon our arrival there was a black male lying on the sidewalk obviously dead from a shotgun wound. This location was right across the street from the...

    Just for friendly debate. Don't know about your area but these food givaways you see on the news where they pull up in a brand new car and get a box full of food. Don't look like they are "food insecure". Or mama with her foot long eye lashes and nails is complaining about lack of food. Get the...

    Things that annoy me

    I think this shooting deserved the news coverage it got. It happened in midtown Manhattan, 4 people shot. A police officer was one. All totally innocent victims. It isn't the same as when 4 people in the hood get shot because someone "called them out of their name." For you folks that was a term...

    Don't trust those stats they put out. I know of different scenerios where 25 cars are broken into but it's only recorded as 1 crime because it all happened at the same time and location. Same with shooting 3 people shot at one location and time reported 1 shooting not 3. I'm not saying this...

    I remember in 1966 I was a cadet on the PD and that summer it was so hot and they had so many heat related deaths in the city that the morgue was filled and they had to put the dead on ice. That was the year the 2nd Busch Stadium opened an the MLB all star game was played in St Louis during this...

    You all seem like a bunch of sissy's! Growing up we had no air conditioning. My parents did not get air conditioning until after I was married and out of the house. All we had were a box fan that was in a window and turned on at night to pull in some cooler night air. I remember my mom telling...
