The Awful Forums - Memories of an old Chicago Cop

I was a cop under hizzoner da mayor 66-70. And back then there were two important things to know about Chicago.

First, the government and the police and fire departments were corrupt. For example, while one fireman is checking out the smoke in your living room another was going through the drawers in your den. When working the squadrol (paddy wagon) and picking up a body we’d take it to the funeral home that paid us the most per stiff. This is the main reason I left.
