There is outrage after Chicago police shot and killed a 16-year-old boy.

In Homan Square on Monday night, police pulled over a car that was connected to an earlier shooting. Police say Pierre Loury jumped out and an officer chased him.

Police say Loury then pointed a weapon at the officer and that is when he was shot. But a witness claims he saw officers "high five" each other after the teen was gunned down.

And now, protesters are demanding justice. A group held a vigil at the scene of the shooting and then marched onto the Eisenhower.

Even though the facts of this case are still far from clear, there are those on the side of Loury who claim this was not a justified shooting, despite what police say that he pointed a gun at an officer, and that the gun was recovered at the scene.

Just-us will prevail. I'm sure this was a case of mistaken identity and the young man was simply running to get to choir rehearsal. Now, if the lyin' king had a son...........

“A 16 year-old boy” hunh? In other words a full-grown male that is very dangerous.

Shades of Dorian Johnson and the "Hands up! Don't shoot!" hoax.

The BLM group will completely ignore the fact that the dead perp had a gun.

Reminds me of that scene in Liar Liar (after his son makes the wish) ... where the secretary is on the phone with a client who was arrested for the 10th time ...

The secretary says "He wants to know what he should do ..."

And Carey says "STOP BREAKING THE LAW!!!"

Or that blacks kill blacks in chitcago pretty much on an hourly basis.

And we all know how reliable the Ferguson "hands up, don't shoot!" witnesses were.

Will this be the same witnesses who saw the gentle giant with his hands up begging the officers not to shoot him?

Facts don’t matter to the #ThugLivesMatter crowd. Sooner or later we’re going to have to shut the BLM jackals down. It might as well be sooner than later.

I hate to see innocents get shot and killed.

But, are we going overboard here, when we make a cause celebre out of any officer involved shooting of blacks???

First of all, were the cops white?

Second of all, as the car was involved in a crime, police had every reason to stop them.

Third of all, when cops pull over a car, it’s suspicious for someone to jump out of the car and run away.

Fourth of all, it’s suspicious for the person who jumps out of the car to point a gun at police.

You would swear to listen to Black Lives Matter idiots, that all these guys are choir boys, just going to school, not doing anything illegal or improper, gunned down by cops for no reason at all.

Whereas the truth is very different.

Can’t wait to hear the rap sheet on Pierre. I bet he’s been in trouble with the law before and was bad news. I bet he wasn’t turning his life around to become a productive member of society.

But the Black Lives Matter propaganda and related stories spewed forth by the liberal media will never tell us the whole story about these incidents.

They all have been provided with 'Witness Cameras', AKA 0bama phones.

No pictures,; than it did not happen.

Okay. Give the cop a bonus with his next paycheck.

Once again, “Black Lives Matter” proves it’s a terrorist organization whose real name is “Black Criminals’ Lives Matter.”

That would be 20 years at hard labor, ... for each protestor.
