somebody should tell them what those drooping pants really mean.

[GeronL]

obviously the (not “youngman”) gunman was stunned by the action!

It's so when they get shot dead and their sphincter muscle relaxes, they don't make a mess in their pants.

Pretty much. I’tll be “because racism”, ultimately. Rahm will probably pay the family a settlement, and then blame it all on the NRA. “This young innocent wouldn’t have been seduced by guns in the first place if...”

[BBell]

...in the ghetto...

Not to worry. When they arrive where they are going they will find out fast. The one holding up his pants better get used to holding someone else's belt loop.

One less thug on the street with a gun and two others that learned a lesson the hard way.

Does Illinois have a felony murder statute...?

Last time I checked, yes.

[publius911]

I love a happy ending.

DITTO!
The more of these white rednecks killed during armed crimes, the better I enjoy the news...

[kenmcg]

That’s what I call urban renewal! chalk one up for the good guys.

[publius911]

Another loss to the Rap Music community.

I was wrong.
I thought that Monstrosity being built in DC near Union Station was waaay too big for its purpose. The "African American 'Culture' Museum..."

Sports thugs, armed criminals, rappers, etc. should fill the place up for the benefit of future generations.

Being stupid can certainly get you dead............

dfwgator #13: "Another loss to the Rap Music community."

However, it is Chicago, so the deceased robber will still get to vote (possible multiple times) in various future elections.

Cannot a black kid wear a hoodie without the man coming down on him. Racist cops. ;-)

[Polynikes]

Outstanding technique. He removes his valuables with his right hand transfers it to his left to give to the gunman and either shields his right for the draw or distracts long enough to draw and shoot. He is shielded from the others by the pumps and his car. Too bad for the thug play stupid games win stupid prizes.

[servo1969]

If he wasn’t a cop he’d be charged with murder right now.

[chiefqc]

ONLY if the money is paid into his account first.

[Pollster1]

Give the cop at least seven days paid leave for the Internal Affairs investigation, and I imagine some grateful citizens will send him to Disney World.

[AppyPappy]

He was an aspiring rapper!! Going back to school. Taking care of his kids.
