Chicago Police Officer Thor Soderberg Murdered at 43


Chicago, IL—Thor Soderberg was a police academy instructor currently assigned to deal with South side Chicago gangs and violence. Late this afternoon while leaving a police building a local thug snatched Soderberg’s service pistol and shot him in the head killing him.

The offender attempted an armed robbery nearby with the gun and was shot and wounded by other officers. The suspect has non-life threatening wounds. The yet to be identified thug reportedly has an extensive criminal record of mostly drug related crimes.

Soderberg leaves a wife and many friends who are devastated by this despicable and cowardly and racist driven act.

My thoughts tonight are with departed role model, his family and friends.

Hey is this killer one of the bad people Mayor Daley's useless gun laws will protect us from? How about the Cook county ASA's do their job for once. This piece of garbage should have been in jail for shooting his brother a few years ago. Ted Kozak rots in prison and this piece of human garbage was free to roam so he could kill a good cop.

Daley: lack of new police not affecting public safety

Mayor Richard Daley on Saturday dismissed the notion that his administration’s failure to make good on a pledge to hire more police is affecting public safety, even as Chicago combats growing violent crime.

"No, no," said Daley when asked about the lack of new hires and the impact on city safety. When pressed, Daley bristled and said "It just won’t."

The mayor said he's "working on" hiring more police officers, but didn’t have a time frame for when that would happen.

Daley's brief comments were the first he has made on the issue since the Tribune reported Thursday that the Chicago Police Department is down hundreds of officers due to retirements and other attrition. Police Supt. Jody Weis promised aldermen that he would expand the force by 75 officers as part of a move to get more cops on the street.

Daley, who refused to answer questions on the issue Thursday and Friday, cited dropping revenues as the reason for the hiring delay.

"It's simple, we have an economic crisis...we have to look at this in a four year financial plan, we're not going to be irresponsible," said Daley, who compared the crises that the city and country are grappling with to the financial problems faced by Chicago’s two newspapers.

"All you guys are going to get laid off," said Daley, laughing. "You have an economic crisis, you have a debt you have to figure this out."

Daley has said the city must reduce personnel costs in the face of the worsening economy and a gaping budget hole, but has not specified where the cuts could be made. His remarks Saturday came at a ribbon-cutting ceremony in Uptown for a newly built playground at Stewart Elementary School, 4525 North Kenmore Ave..

Monique Bond, spokeswoman for the Police Department, said last week that Weis is still committed to hiring as many officers as he can but said the department is not the only agency in the city facing budget challenges.

This officer died because cops, like everybody else now, have been bludgeoned into accepting blacks’ thuggishness as unavoidable and understandable – indeed, excusable. To make the fatal import of this facet of pc enforcement a little clearer, suppose a realistic police self-protection policy were to be enacted: in neighborhoods with high rates of violent crime, require officers to stand guard, weapons drawn, in all situations where they might be exposed to attack. How long would it be before the howls of outrage by blacks and liberal whites compelled the police to use the same aggressive tactic in neighborhoods where the worst thing that is likely to happen to an officer is getting poked by his car door? What the police are forbidden publicly to acknowledge, that blacks routinely attack police, especially white police, while whites rarely do, is what has cost this officer his life.

Instead of sweeping the streets of anyone engaged in lewd or disorderly conduct as was done in former times, the law-abiding are commanded to stay indoors while the lewd and disorderly are allowed access everywhere, up to and including police parking lots. Sam Francis's Anarcho-Tyranny cannot be demonstrated in starker terms.

Meanwhile, while the fallen officer is being gushed over for his community service, (which he deserves, but that's not the point) it goes unnoticed by the carefree and clueless white residents of Chicago's lakefront and bohemian neighborhoods - the same people who have blithely turned Daley into mayor-for-life - that the facility where the murder took place, once a regular police station, now houses Targeted Response and Gang Enforcement units, i. e., large bureaucracies within the police department dedicated to chronic crime and serial outbreaks of crime, otherwise known as crime waves. While a law-abiding citizen who displays a handgun will be branded with a felony arrest - a career-ending event for most people, real career criminals, and the mere savages who commit crimes simply because it feels good, are given special treatment, to negotiate and camouflage the problem rather than eradicate it.

What can one say about a race of people who have been richly rewarded by this society as a matter of policy, when they have demolished most of our once great cities, mass murdered over a quarter of a million white people since the 60s, have left 40 million white violent crime victims in their wake (murders, rapes, robberies, beatings, car jackings, home invasions, etc.) in that same span, and have left a massively negative influence on society at large.....?

Chicago Cops Slammed with Sudden Ban on the Sig/Sauer P320—And the Officers Will Pay thePrice

In a move that’s rocking the rank and file, the Chicago Police Department has abruptly banned the use of the once-trusted Sig/Sauer P320 pistol as an authorized duty weapon. The order came down swiftly, leaving thousands of officers scrambling. The official reason? Alarming reports that the weapon can fire without the trigger being pulled. For years now the gun-maker has brushed off horror stories about negligent discharges, usually blaming human error. After all, it’s easier to blame the gun than admit to a deadly mistake. Just think back to Alec Baldwin’s tragic shooting on a New Mexico movie set—he insisted he never pulled the trigger, yet a woman lost her life. But experts were quick to point out that the revolver in question simply doesn’t fire on its own. This, however, isn’t Hollywood. The Sig Sauer P320 has a documented pattern of discharges—many occurring while holstered. Lawsuits are piling up, and the manufacturer continues to deny fault, but the incidents are too numerou...

A 40 Caliber Nightmare Is Caught On Tape.

So you’re confident that that .40 caliber S&W service round will keep you safe. Maybe you’ll have second thoughts after you see this video. One hot summer night in 1994 Tempe and Mesa Arizona police were involved in a pursuit with this suspect who ran into a stranger’s apartment to hide after being shot TWICE in the chest. He was shirtless and you can see the blood pumping out of those two wounds. What’s really frightening is just how agile this fellow is as he struts to the ambulance. If he was not handcuffed and had a knife or a gun, ask yourself if he could still hurt you, your partner or a hostage? If your jurisdiction demands that officers carry either the 9MM or the .40 Caliber S&W it’s time to show this video to your bosses and lobby to have the .45 ACP round authorized. The switch may well reduce the screaming by self-appointed community activists about how many rounds police had to use on a suspect. The really talented and courageous video journalist, Karen Ke...

America Will See Its Worst Race Riot Yet This Summer

Star Prosecution Witness, Rachel Jeantel Sanford, FL —Yes, the George Zimmerman trial here has thousands of African-Americans getting ready for some serious bloodletting. I don’t want to make idle and dire predictions but this nation has never been so divided and racially sensitive.  Our African-American President took sides on this case at the very beginning.  That ratified a George Zimmerman guilty verdict in the minds of millions. There’s just one little problem, and that is the murder case should have never been filed.  It was filed purely for political reasons despite the fact that it was a simple justifiable homicide.  Zimmerman was on the block watch lookout program and followed a suspicious Trayvon Martin after he used an improper entrance to a gated community.  Zimmerman was acting as the eyes and ears of the Sanford Police Department. Martin did not like being followed and knew that he could easily beat up the out-of-shape...
