I'd like to think that most of us here have long disassociated ourselves with people that would do that kind of thing or would want to be a part of any event like that.
But then again, it could be somebody we work with or, perish the thought, somebody we're related to.
Here's hoping they find him and that justice is swift and true.....

He wouldn't be an active fire fighter with that facial hair. NurseJackie Jan 2021 #31

Correct. Absolutely not in Chicago. Moustaches only. nt Progressive Jones Jan 2021 #36

Wow and killed a cop, rw Trump supporting cop with a fire extinguisher, all kinds or irony. LizBeth Jan 2021 #3

Bet all the facial hair has been shaved off. n/t Arne Jan 2021 #4

They should release this photo with his beard photoshopped off Siwsan Jan 2021 #20

Too late, folks that know him safeinOhio Jan 2021 #30

Great news!! Saw a video earlier of him throwing the damn thing, but only his shoulder was Leghorn21 Jan 2021 #5

Coward has most likely shaved his beard MontanaMama Jan 2021 #7

Oh no, how could a firefighter turn against humanity like this? blm Jan 2021 #8

CFD could also be the Charlottesville FD. n/t happybird Jan 2021 #9

It's Chicago. LisaL Jan 2021 #15

I don't think it's Chicago. That cap is more purple. The Chicago FD Progressive Jones Jan 2021 #50

The hat is dark blue. LisaL Jan 2021 #55

Maybe I didn't make my point so well. Progressive Jones Jan 2021 #57

It's the same hat. LisaL Jan 2021 #58

I agree jcgoldie Jan 2021 #60

I think the hat just looks purple because of the lighting. It's probably black. yardwork Jan 2021 #75

I think you have found a winner ... Jarqui Jan 2021 #26

Thank you Tree-Hugger Jan 2021 #29

Maybe a father. Jarqui Jan 2021 #35

Chicago police appear to be among the worst in the country when it comes to realizing their Blue_true Jan 2021 #46

This is true. Many here suck, but many are also on the square. nt Progressive Jones Jan 2021 #68

I believe I understand why they don't, but I wish decent Cops Blue_true Jan 2021 #69

Absolutely. I have no doubt that good ones have trust issues at work. nt Progressive Jones Jan 2021 #73

But they also face the issue of getting in a tough spot, calling for backup Blue_true Jan 2021 #74

They're clean shaven because they need the respirators to fit snugly against their skin. NurseJackie Jan 2021 #32

Could be retired or on furlough. Ace Rothstein Jan 2021 #39

There are many possibilities. NurseJackie Jan 2021 #40

Yes, many Trump supporters go out of their way to piss people off. Ace Rothstein Jan 2021 #43

That's the truth. It's a mission. NurseJackie Jan 2021 #45

seems like Chicago FD jcgoldie Jan 2021 #12

It could be the FD of any town or city that starts with a 'C'. n/t Chemisse Jan 2021 #13

Most of us have friends/neighbors/family who are Trumpsters Johnny2X2X Jan 2021 #21

Somebody knows this POS Deuxcents Jan 2021 #19

Etsy sells the EXACT hat for Chicago Fire Department but it is not the actual CFD logo. BrightKnight Jan 2021 #22

His face was pretty clear in the photo. Won't take long now, even if he shaves. Blue_true Jan 2021 #47

There is too much focus on the hat Hav Jan 2021 #24

IDK, appears to be kind of unusual. Exact match for Etsy, not the CFD logo, and the only one BrightKnight Jan 2021 #37

His face was really clear in that picture. The cap was just icing on the cake. Blue_true Jan 2021 #49

Anyone can buy the hat but a fireman would sure know how heavy a building's fire extinguisher is lunasun Jan 2021 #27

A Fireman would know something like that can kill a person if the person is hit in the head Blue_true Jan 2021 #51

I dont think he is an active member of the Chicago Fire Dept. Squidly Jan 2021 #28

He may have stolen the hat from a homeless person. He could be from anywhere. Roisin Ni Fiachra Jan 2021 #33

I'm guessing someone that killed a cop like that has a mug shot somewhere. BrightKnight Jan 2021 #34

It is just a matter of time before someone calls him in. Chainfire Jan 2021 #38

That my friends, is the face of a person who is screwed. Blue_true Jan 2021 #41

As Denzel Washington said to Snoop Dogg, dware Jan 2021 #48

I have had only passing exposure to fire extinguishers. Blue_true Jan 2021 #53

Yep. dware Jan 2021 #54

When I first saw the picture of the guy, it reminded me of the loud, arrogant, selfish Blue_true Jan 2021 #59

And when the do capture him. dware Jan 2021 #62

I believe a couple people from Naiperville, IL DeminPennswoods Jan 2021 #42

I used to wear a Harley Davidson hat. I've never ridden a motorcycle in my life. Iggo Jan 2021 #44

I chuckled Dem2 Jan 2021 #52

His face was clear. The cap was irrelevant information, other than the FBI may have guessed Blue_true Jan 2021 #56

Yup. Ex-wife got the Air Force guy. Iggo Jan 2021 #63

Totally agree. nt Blue_true Jan 2021 #64

Someone will recognize his raindrop face eventually. Buckeye_Democrat Jan 2021 #61

What the heck is the thick-looking collar around his neck? Buckeye_Democrat Jan 2021 #65

Looks like one of them big warm Pendleton things the guys out in the warehouse wear. Iggo Jan 2021 #70

Chesapeake Fire Dept dclarston13 Jan 2021 #66

I always get murder and homocide mixed up. I suppose when he's found, he can clarify it for me. ffr Jan 2021 #71
