Chicago Police May Soon Need to Request Permission to Chase Suspects on Foot

Police reform is coming to Chicago – and it’s set to further pour gasoline on the city’s growing crime problem. If you thought police couldn’t do their jobs due to lack of support (and sometimes explicit opposition) from liberal leaders, at least one of those leaders now literally doesn’t want cops to be able to do their jobs.

Police officers in Chicago may soon require permission from a supervisor before pursuing a suspect on foot, Mayor Lori Lightfoot said.

Lightfoot promised to disclose details “soon” about a police policy change.

“No one should die as a result of a foot chase,” the mayor said.

One is left to wonder what the point of having a police force even is if a suspect can escape with a healthy 6 mile-per-hour jog.

Basing public policy on extremely rare incidents is simply bad policy, and the hysteria driving these bad policies have been exacerbated by the media.

  1. Just let them go. Don’t chase chit. If you take the effort to stuff and cuff the turd, the judge will cut them loose anyway. Sit in your unit and observe. But you will be criticized for that also. Thoughts and prayers are with the good guys and gals. Thank you.

  2. Don’t chase them at all Let them stay in the neighbor to commit more crimes against blacks including murder Blacks like to lie about and demonize the police then they do not deserve police trying to get criminals off their streets. Lying has consequences
