From the comment section:
- James Cappleman said...I was at the scene of the fire at 11:50am because I heard the sirens a half block from my home. I asked a police officer if anyone was hurt, and was told no. A resident at the scene confirmed this. I did a quick text because I had to quickly leave for an event where I was serving as a volunteer. From there, I left town for a Thanksgiving dinner with family..... with no contact with the press to learn later that a police officer had to go to the hospital.
Any police officer who has interacted with me has come away knowing that I have the utmost respect for them and their line of work.
It appears to be a legit profile and may actually be the aldercreature we lambasted the other day for praising firefighters for doing their jobs while a police officer who went to the hospital went unrecognized. In light of the aldercreature's comment, we will withdraw the slur we wrote in disgust.
However, we will note that he still hasn't wished the injured officer any sort of "get well" message despite the officer being injured while serving Cappleman's constituency. Respect is nice. A "thank you" would be nicer. And advocate for Rahm to stop screwing with First Responders would be nicest of all, but we won't hold our breath on that count.
