"The Police Are Not Here To Create Disorder, They're Here To Preserve Disorder"*

1968 riot police planning reunion


"CHICAGO (AP) -- Chicago police officers who clashed with protesters during the 1968 Democratic National Convention are planning a reunion.Members of the Fraternal Order of Police say the union will hold a "Chicago Riot Cops Reunion" on June 26 to mark what until now hasn't been considered one of the proud moments in Chicago Police Department history.
The union's Web site says the officers will be honored and recognized for their contributions to maintaining law and order, and for taking a stand against anarchy. It points out Chicago police have been targeted with unending criticism for its actions in 1968."


*Actual Mayor Daly quote.
