You think ‘the black community’ would prefer having Drug Gangs running the community than Chicago cops? You gotta be kidding me.

Our DOJ and the BO administration keeps fanning the flames. Not sure where the tipping point is, but it can not be far away. But that seems to be what BO wants.

No, I think they would prefer cops that actually obeyed the law though.

In the mid 90’s, chicago street gang members were becoming chicago cops.

It is the law abiding citizens who will suffer in this equation.

Law abiding citizens no longer have a place at the table. They used to be represented by the government. However, lefty governments, with their soft on crime bias, prefer to represent the criminals.

“Systemic”, roughly translated, means: Unsolvable problem that should keep Libs and their cronies, sycophants and henchmen busy till their retirement and death in a cush environment.

Isn’t interfering with criminal acts now the official legal definition of police brutality?

I know what reasonable doubt is. I don’t know what reasonable cause.

We talking ‘prudent person standard’?

There are no prudent liberals. That’s unfortunate but true. I live in WA state, West side of the state, and wow.

I lived on the Southside of Chicago. You’re confusing paid liberal shills with the people who live in the community. Subsidized blacks who do the screaming are bought and paid for by white liberal elites.

My grandfather worked for the real mayor Daley.

I don’t know when it all changed.
you messed with a cop, they sent the whole freakin force into your neighborhood.

When the west side went up in flames when King got shot, the cops\blackstone rangers ( or whatever they were called back then ) made a deal and there was no trouble from the south side.

Born & raised in Chicago - I left in 75 and never looked back.

I’m not confusing anything. I still live in Chicago, I am speaking from experience, not parroting protestors.
