CHICAGO Cell phone footage showing a group of teens viciously kicking and striking a 16-year-old honors student with splintered railroad ties has ramped up pressure on Chicago officials to address chronic violence that has led to dozens of deaths of city teens each year.
The graphic video of the afternoon melee emerged on local news stations over the weekend, showing the fatal beating of Derrion Albert, a sophomore honor roll student at Christian Fenger Academy High School. His death was the latest addition to a rising toll: More than 30 students were killed last school year, and the city could exceed that number this year.
Prosecutors charged four teenagers Monday with fatally beating Albert, who was walking to a bus stop when he got caught up in the mob street fighting, authorities said.

I don’t think Obama has any intention of stopping it. He has relied on the ghetto status quo for his livelihood ever since he left college. If the violence stopped, the property values would go up, the schools could be more effective, businesses would probably move back in, and the neighborhoods might integrate. Pretty soon the Democrat stranglehold on “poor black folks” wouldn’t be easy to maintain, and hucksters like Obama would have a lot harder time getting elected.
Amen
RIP for the young man Derrion Albert beaten to death.
That is a disturbing series of images of a pack of savages or wild dogs. It looks as bad as Stephen King could conjure up in an apocalyptic novel.
If Copenhagen Olympic venue judges saw this prior to their venue vote, it could have an impact.
Everytime a home team wins something would be my guess.
it’s been this way since forever but it’s gotten much worse since the Great Society

Thank you, but I won’t go to heaven because of anything I did.
I’ll go to heaven because of what Jesus did for me on the cross. This is the least I can do for Him.
Thanks, but I don’t think my comments are extreme at all. 1st degree murder by extreme aggravated assult for these 4 black teen thugs will be reduced & plea bargained down to manslaughter, because after all, they are “black”, “downtrodden”, “victims of institutional racism and thus as much a victim as the one they killed”, and after all, whitey just wouldn’t understand or appreciate the tremendous pressure of being black in America....sob /sarc. Secondly if they had been celebrity blacks, the charges would either be dropped or they would be found not guilty. Thirdly, if whites committed this crime against either black or white, it is a dead certainty they would be facing life sentence in prison. And fourthly if it were a white on black crime, the hate crime analogies & heaped on charges would be a dead certainty. If it is a black on white crime (99.999% of the cases), it does not qualify as hate crimes, because only whites can be guilty of committing hate crimes according to deranged liberals & race baiters. This is not extreme, this is the state of liberal, retard, politically motivated, perverted justice in Amerika today.
That’s my worry, too.
