Yes it is. Just be careful, LEO is all over the place.

It's stupid to lie to the police. Say nothing. Give them your driver's license and proof of insurance. If they ask questions just say you won't answer questions and ask if you are free to go.

Fellas. I believe they will make a stop for any legit reason as mentioned to check to run your plate and you to see if there is a want or warrant and also if you are a stinkin! Course who can get drunk and then drive these days except I heard it did happen up in niles or up further north where after the accident description the first thing I thought of was a drunken move! Fuzz knows why guys are cruising especially in the hot areas. I do like to have a reason in my mind for being there such as oh going to the menards at north and kenton over there although with this current situation hours are strange. They usually will be open till 10 pm. Then as mentioned the fast food joints. Also as I have mentioned I have a p o box downtown and could just say I am doing a mail run. I believe if they don't catch you in the act and you don't pull a want or warrant and there is nothing wrong with your driving or your vehicle they will just cut you loose and say go home! Then just do that imo. Right now even over here by the airport fuzz is just going around in those cruisers crazy like as I don't even know what their supervisors know what to really do. I can tell you that fire is going wherever on calls so they must have spread the word that all of the little villages close by city will help the city when needed. And of course that testing place is just east of here a few miles and that is a hot bed. I am sure most people are behaving as they are scared. Be safe and well all. Looks like we are down for the count at least until the end of the month. Course with jb who knows? So so glad I am out of the city! She's one of the reasons!

Anyway, came back later and Pulaski and grand was dead. Any info is appreciated. Take care and be safe.

Don't know if my scouting is different than others. Have driven through Pulaski area several times. Seems to be better during the daytime. Too much LEO worry after dark?

I've been out running errands after the stores are closed and maybe one or two fast food joints are left open. Granted one may be in an area known for prostitution, but that in and of itself doesn't mean a thing if you are going about your business and don't look like your trolling for hoes.

I also meant to add in my previous post that if stopped at a checkpoint late at night when most stores and fast food places are no longer open, that you might have a hard time convincing LEO that you have a legitimate reason for being out. And there aren't too many places to shop on Fifth unless shopping for pussy.

And what can they do? At most tell you to go home. Also gas stations are open.

I had just written yesterday saying I had no official info about CPD. Today there is a story in the Trib. CPD brass wants to set up checkpoints. Technically, they would be the usual safety checkpoints, looking for seatbelts and auto violations. But people out without a "valid" reason would be urged to go home. The police union is against this as is the ACLU. What does that mean for us? I'm not sure. It will be of interest first to know where these checkpoints will be. Let's say that one is located at North Cic and Fullerton. Does that put a crimp in the route, do we all tell LEO we are on the way home or to the grocery store? Or do we just endure LEO telling us to go home? I personally believe, that if not from the neighborhood, LEO might not believe you are merely shopping or on the way home. LEO is not totally dumb as to why we are out there, especially on some of the seedier routes like 5th. The problem now is that they will believe they have a legitimate reason to stop us. "No sir, we are not stopping you here on Fifth Avenue because we believe you are seeking street girls. We are simply checking to see if you are using your seat belt. " And there is the other thing, that LEO doesn't particularly want to get that close to either us or the girls any more than he has to. So feel free to contradict me or add to the info from the Trib. I'm simply guessing and proposing potential scenarios. I have no idea what reality will bring.

As well, mr. Stark. The close quarters alone in the cells would cause problems. Those places are incubators for this kind of thing. I know when I was doing what I now call "sucker" work with the cpd, west loop associations and charitable organizations (problem being the same 15 people do all the work and the rest of the community just applauds and gives you your complimentary pat on the back!) We toured cook county lockup with the cpd and got an extensive tour. Everything in there is tight and we did go into a cell which was two to a cell except when they are crowded and then they did one on the floor, two in the bunks. They have those blocks where they do have a communal area. When they are processed they chain them all together when out of this big cage. Makes you wonder why people do crazy things and wind up in there!

I guess my question is what their official and unofficial policies are. Cook County courts don't want their business right now. LEO doesn't want contact with the public any more than he has to. So when they report to the station houses, what are they being told about arrests and enforcement? As I pointed out, things are different in several towns I have heard about.

What I can tell you about my little village here southeast of the big airport is that all unessential business with fuzz has been curtailed. On the village website anything minor like who really knows what that entails is to be phoned in. What usually happens up here for instance the homeless can take the blue line at rosemont, jump on the big blue bus (not my former garage down here though) and get off in our little downtown. Usually if the fuzz sees them hanging out, they will say look we are giving you a free ride! Meaning they escort them back up to rosemont, see that they get up on the el and then send them towards the city. Now what one of the homeless guys told me while he was waiting for the bus was that they just told him look you don't belong here so get on the bus and get out now! The fuzz station across the street is closed unless it's official business. So yea I am with you, ump. The line is blurred. I am of the belief that if one is stopped for something stupid while driving they are going to ask what you are doing out and in the area. I mean I have limited my in city drives only because right now there's nothing down there but my mail box downtown.

I noticed even on eros where there would be three or four pages of girls in town there are only two. oh btw all-i have seen more fuzz hanging then i have ever seen driving around in the city or out by the airport. over by the hip mall in norridge they are testing at the old emissions place as i go by there to shop back in my old hood. when this first broke it was madness right in that area. today it' not as bad, however still backed up. and even though that is not really city, the city fuzz is everywhere over there. mostly i see cruisers podding around out here so not as many drive bys. the weirdest thing i saw by the uc when coming up damen from getting my mail early sunday morning was two indiana sheriffs brown cruisers fly around me. they wound up at the uc so free breakfast must have been on and they figured wtf it's a ways but let's roll! no really i am sure they were on official fuzz business! stay safe and let's hope these providers don't go crazy with high fees when this clears up thinking that we need them so bad they can jack up their prices.

Thanks for reading my forum message the way I intended for it to be read. I wonder how long this crap is going to last. It has been weeks now since I have seen my friend. Problem is, she is more of a risk taker than I am. When they shut down the Casino's I knew things were serious. I snuck in one last visit. She called me to hook up even after but I said to my self, things are getting risky so I better close the door. Gee wiz, I want to open the door back open. I want to hang out and have fun but I also want my health. Some people are getting Corona where it barely does anything to them then others are suffering a loss of life. I would hate to get my desire for company get me into a bad health situation. This one is real tricky. A condom will do little help here. The virus is passed through the air so breathing around someone can get you infected.

I am really getting frustrated because it has been over a month already. Problem is there is no end in sight.
