Cops in Chicago 'burbs allowed to be half-drunk on the job

14 hrs ago

Drinking on the job is generally frowned upon, unless you’re lucky enough to work at a brewery. Or as a cop in the Chicago suburbs. That’s right, in several suburban Chicago hamlets, the boys (and girls) in blue are allowed to be nearly-sauced on the clock, thanks to provisions in police union contracts that prevent disciplinary action against cops who are literally half-drunk. In those cities, cops are allowed to have a blood alcohol level of .05 before they can be punished. In Illinois, a blood alcohol reading of .08 is considered legally drunk. So, yeah, real comforting. By contrast, in Chicago, the city’s limit for officer drinking is .02. [Source]

The best damn shine I ever had was made by a cop, in Statesboro, Ga back in the 70's. He might not have made it while on the job, but he damn sure distributed it out of his patrol car. I used to play and sing at a lot of cop parties, especially at Christmas and New Years. I've seen incidences, where some would stop into the party while on duty, and go back on patrol so damn sh*t faced they couldn't stand up! The only group of hard core drunk partiers I've ever played for that were bigger drunks than bankers, were cops!!!!!!!!!!

That's shi*cago for ya. In a state where gun laws are the strictest, and gun related crimes are the highest in the nation. Then again, that's where Obummer came from. Need I say more?
