No you really don't get it, It's a shame when there's a shooting at all no matter who it involves.

Navin is right. I sense his sarcasm. None of the people who ever get shot deserve it, whether they're drug dealers, pimps, gang-bangers... But the CPD, when they get shot, it's their own fault. It's been a long time coming, with all of the abuse they've unleashed on everyone for years and years and years.

This is so sad, not because a living person got shot, but because a person getting a PhD got shot. Any other time meh.....

Its not the polices fault so Jessie and Sharpton wont have anything to do with this. No money to be made by lawsuits means no storefront Revs. If it wasnt for the sad death of a man who would be able to contribute to mankind this would be funny.

Tony B, you might want to actually Read my post, I didn’t say that any body from Dakar spoke about crime being bad in American My Ex( American) who is visiting Dakar spoke about potential crime there. But then again to actually read something before commenting is kinda "un-American" these days. And your internet link about Dakar is something my Ex and I have seen. Most of the crime detailed is "pick-pocketing, purse-snatching, theft from vehicles, minor assault, and burglaries taking advantage of unlocked doors and windows". If you have traveled aboard, this doesn’t include Vegas or Disney Land, you would have a better understanding of what I'm saying, its about relativity, crime in Dakar compared to other places people visit is not bad at all. But, only in America do we have children running around killing people, which is my point, so put down your red white and blue saber and think about that? Oh and you are right about Jesse Jackson, he plays on the surface, which you should understand.

Yikes. Those comments are pretty crazy. Makes chicagoist readers seem completely grounded by comparison.

This is terrible. My heart goes out to their family. Tony B, you are right. Where are Jackson and Sharpton and the other community leaders demanding change?

Wanna read something even scarier? How about you take a gander at the comments left by readers after the story on chicagotribune.com? Whoa.

BTW- I have to laugh at someone from DAKAR talking shit about violence in Chicago. http://www.osac.gov/Reports/report.cfm?contentID=42002 (too lazy for html)

I wonder if Jesse and Al will hold a press conference condemning the killings and holding the community responsible? Yeah....probably not.
