Photo “borrowed” from today’s Sun Times…On the mirrors at the old O'Brien Street, Chicago Police Academy and in all districts there was a slogan, “Does your appearance command respect?” I don’t recognize this dirty dozen but they look like the vagrants I used to lock up for safekeeping.
There’s nothing uniform about these officers except their shameful appearance. J-Fed needs to do what former Superintendant O.W. Wilson did and crack down on the officer’s personal image.
Protective vests should be under the uniform shirts or be less obvious. Those tragically and beyond ugly ball caps would make minimum wage security guards look bad if that's possible.
The proper Chicago Police field cap needs to return to properly groomed heads.
I believe that it’s long overdue for all Chicago officers including supervisors to wear dark blue shirts. Light blue and white shirts stand out like brightly lit targets at night.
I would ask that all the individual officers to please do what the department won’t make them do and clean up this mess on their own.

Problem is, that would be a change in uniform specs and the city would have to buy first issue. No way Daley will cut loose with that kind of dough, he'd rather throw it away closing up Meigs field or other stupid shit like that.
Why don't you show a pic of a horses ass , that would have a better look and be more appealing.
Paul, you're right. Every one of those officers looks like a shit-bag. What's up with the idiot wearing a black vest over his blue shirt?
Shit-bags...
Thanks to Fat Phil Cline's approval of all 15+ uniform variations,there is no uniformity or discipline anymore.
