CPD Supt. Johnson on proposed use of force changes: Speak up

It's an old adage meant to fill polling booths: If you don't vote, don't complain about who's in office.

Chicago Police Supt. Eddie Johnson, with noticeable frustration in his voice, used similar logic to urge people to share their opinions on a proposed overhaul of the department's use of force policy.

"I have to emphasize that if you don't comment on it - and you don't look at it, and you don't comment on it - then don't be upset with the policy that's put in place because you didn't help craft it," Johnson said Tuesday at a breakfast at the Union League Club.

Johnson announced the yet-to-be finalized draft in October, along with a 45-day window in which public comments would be accepted. The window shuts on Dec. 5.
