The people that accuse you (or most anyone else) of being anti-cop don’t care how many positive stories you run. To them, saying one negative thing ever forever brands you as hating all cops.

Of course, they’re probably the bad cops/their supporters in question.

Carlos
nice to see more cops doing the RIGHT thing
Thanks for the storie ill pass it along to my cop hating friends and see what they think of a cop doing right

Perhaps we should let the Chief of the Gurnee Police know what a good job his officer did. I wrote to Chief Robert Jones at policechief@police.gurnee.il.us to let him know.

Yay for the Gurnee Police. Really curious what the repairman’s reasoning was.

Of course, it sucks when we have to celebrate the police for simply upholding the law.

Everyone here knows this photog could have easily been harassed, assaulted, tased and arrested…

Good for the Gurnee PD, good for Chamberlain for politely standing his ground, and good for you for highlighting this.

At least we know that the cops in Gurnee, Illinois agree with Carlos that photography is not a crime.

outstanding!

Having lived in Gurnee for several years, I always found the police to be exceedingly professional. Given that gang activity was slowly moving in from neighboring communities, it’s nice to see they’re still equally professional.

They knew the law, even some relatively obscure sections, like what differentiates a model rocket (legal) from fireworks (illegal). And they were not afraid to tell people, “It’s legal. Now, go stuff it.”

Good to see that some LEOs are getting the message. It’s so easy to just report the bad news b/c it is more exciting to rail against, but I think it’s laudable that Carlos is giving props when they’re due.

Tom forgot to mention that he is an elected board member for the village of Gurnee.

haha the photos realyl do tell the story
