"Nigger boy, you gonna cooperate?" a 220lb. Chicago police officer screamed as he pounded on the chest of 16-year-old, 120lb. Mark Clements. As the beating continued, pain shot out from Clements' chest and exploded into the rest of his body. He gasped for air, struggling to breathe, in excruciating pain. Clements say the officer, whom he identifies as John McCann, had a way of getting his knuckles to the tenderest part of the bone.

Just think, if Clements had been in school like he was suppose to be, Pinstripes wouldn’t have gotten zotted.

With scumbag cops like that typical in Chicago, it's no wonder that the entire Daley family wants the law abiding population disarmed.

Why zot a guy for posting a true story?

Unless I’m missing something big, I didn’t see anything zot-worthy about it.

Is there a particular reason you want the moderator to see this?

Clements was innocent and there was indeed a big torture scandal involving Chicago cops led by Jon Burge.
BUT - the point of this story is to work in some sort of praise for Ayer’s wife, the bomber-murderer Bernadine Dhorn, for connecting the victim with a law firm.
Since she and Ayers helped plan the recent flotilla attack on Israel, it looks like some positive spin is being fronted for them by the drooling dog media.

I think if this were done into word (MS Word that is) it would be 6-7 pages and Dohrn is mentioned for a paragraph about 70% of the way in, and you think the point of the story is to praise her? Really?
To: MrEdd
quite an eye for the telling small detail...
It is amazing what they want to see get on here just to snicker behind their comic books...

Why else does this story matter? And if Bernardine Dohrn is convinced of this man’s innocence, then he is guilty beyond any doubt at all.

It matters because the Burge trial is still ongoing. If not for Blago, it would be the big story in Chicago. The guy is innocent and no one disputes that at this point.
Look, if you are put off because of that paragraph that’s too bad.
