LOL at thinking pastors can calm a potential situation in Chicago...those lil ? don't give a ? about no pastors

How come the mayor doesn't want to meet with Black activist groups for everyday murder and violence that happens in Chicago? To sit down and try to come up with solutions then? Why didn't he already have a relationship with them? That "what about Black-on-Black crime" argument kind of goes both ways.

I dont see what the public release of the video has to do with the cop being arrested and prosecuted for murder. That shouldve happened a year ago
If he's guilty now he was guilty back then -

He did meet up. Rahm doesn't give a ? . Dude basically said that he doesn't care what young black males do. He said this back in 2013 -
These big ? preachers need to sit down somewhere. When ? is running around killing each other they are nowhere to be found but as soon as they think whitey is about to catch some payback here they come with they best tap dancing shoes to try and keep the peace. Christianity was the worst thing that ever happened to black people

Chicago has been brewing up, but I don't think this is the one to push Chicago to rioting

http://chicago.suntimes.com/news/7/71/1125196/sneed-exclusive-officer-shot-laquan-mcdonald-charged-tuesdaySneed exclusive: Officer who shot Laquan McDonald to be charged Tuesday | Chicago Sun-Times
Sneed has learned a criminal probe launched by Cook County State’s Attorney Anita Alvarez into the shooting death of 17-year-old Laquan McDonald is expected to result in criminal charges Tuesday against 37-year-old Chicago police officer Jason Van ? .
Any decision to file charges Tuesday against Officer Van ? comes in the wake of a Cook County judge’s ruling last week ordering the release of an incendiary video showing a white police officer shooting McDonald, an African-American teen, whose body was riddled with 16 bullets.
On Saturday, Rev. Jesse Jackson: told the press he was hoping for a “police shakeup from top to bottom” after the release of the dashboard cam video; expressed anger Officer Van ? was still getting paid “while McDonald is perishing in his grave”; and called for Alvarez to step down for “failing” to charge him.
Although Alvarez would make no comment, Sneed hears she huddled with staff over the weekend preparing to weigh in on the Laquan McDonald case in advance of the release of the controversial video showing Officer Van ? , who is white, shooting the African-American teen on Oct. 20, 2014.
Sneed is told the potentially inflammatory video, which was ordered released by Wednesday in a ruling last week by Cook County Judge Franklin Valderrama, is scheduled to be released after the criminal charges are filed — and by the judge’s deadline.
In addition to Alvarez, Mayor Rahm Emanuel and Police Superintendent Garry McCarthy had come under intense criticism for permitting Officer Van ? , who had been stripped of police authority, to continue to be assigned to paid desk duty … and for keeping the video from the public eye until the “appropriate” time pending a result of an investigation.
Mayor Rahm Emanuel, who is back at work after a whirlwind business trip to China, reversed course after Judge Franklin Valderrama’s stunning decision Friday and said he would not seek to have the ruling overturned.
Release of the video also prompted Alvarez to move quickly before the video was released hoping to quell any violent reaction by the public to a growing national furor over reports of unfair, premeditated treatment of black teens by white police officers.
Sneed also hears Alvarez’s operatives have also been reaching out to ministers, community leaders and other members of the faith-based community asking them to spread a message encouraging peaceful protests when the video is released by the city of Chicago on Wednesday.
The charges brought by Alvarez pre-empt the result of a joint investigation her office had been conducting along with the Chicago branch of the FBI.
Ironically, before a wrongful death lawsuit was even filed by McDonald’s family, the Chicago City Council unanimously voted to approve a $5 million settlement with them.
It's funny how since that tape is coming out the powers that be are now doing their job.. Even though it's year late... -

This case proves that cops are okay with covering up murders from the public and protecting murderers

I think we should ask for the mayor to step down

That not realistic since just won reelection last year.. plus Emanuel is to much of a egomaniacal ? to let go of any power that fast.. The better play is to go after that pos pig Superintendent McCarthy's job.. But w/ all that being said IMO Chicago ? shouldn't allow Rahm to feel comfortable from here on out.. Ever setting foot in any prominently Black community in Chicago.. They need to put real pressure on his four fingered punk ass.. And hopefully then next time he'll pass on running for Mayor again.. And go back to Israel where neo fascist "liberal" ass belongs... -

Good for them. Not saying all pastors but for a lot of the ? up ? done to black people. Pastors at black churches have been the ones to help spread the ? up message of our oppressors. -

http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/2015/11/24/chicago-police-superintendent-calls-for-firing-dante-servin-rekia-boyd-case/76295730/McCarthy's announcement comes as Chicago braces for the release of police squad car dash cam video which shows a white police officer shooting a black teenager 16 times.
A Cook County judge last week ordered the city to release the video that documents the Oct. 20, 2014, shooting death of 17-year-old Laquan McDonald by this Wednesday. Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel met with pastors and activists in the African-American community to discuss the release of the McDonald video.
Anthony Guglielmi, a spokesman for the superintendent, told USA TODAY that McCarthy completed his review of Servin's actions on Monday and that the court-ordered release of the McDonald video did not weigh in the timing of the Servin announcement.
The death of McDonald, who was holding a small knife when he was killed, came about two months after the shooting death of 18-year-old Michael Brown by a police officer in Ferguson, Mo. sparked protests around the country.
