Chicago police shooting video of Ronald Johnson, 25, to be released, mayor says

Apparently learning when he is backing a losing horse, Rahm Emmanuel will release the video of a Chicago police execution which occurred a few days before the McDonald shooting.

Johnson's family has been pressing officials to release the squad car video of the shooting. They say it will prove Johnson was unarmed when he was he was shot to death. The city says he had a gun and pointed it at police before an officer opened fire.

"That is absolutely not true," attorney Michael Oppenheimer said during a news conference Thursday. "You see officers with their guns, they were carrying weapons. Ronald Johnson was not carrying a weapon. There is no gun in his hand. There is nothing, no cellphone."

Oppenheimer says the video shows Johnson running away from the car after the back window had been shot out.

Emmanuel is an enemy of the state. He needs to be unpersoned.

Speaking as a Chicagoan, the Democratic political machine here is like Hydra. Cut out one corrupt politician and two more pop-up.

Could be worse....you might have a republicunt.

Then it would be open season for the cops on the citizens.

That doesn't seem to be the case in Republican controlled DuPage county which is right next door. The police in that county aren't going on a rampage against its citizens. Also, your comment is profoundly disrespectful to the people who put their lives on the line everyday.

I'm sure there's a next generation Daley already being groomed.

A quick check of the demographics of DuPage County showed that it is 70+% white and 4+% black.

I have no doubt that means utterly nothing to someone like you.

You're right. It doesn't. Criminals are criminals because they are criminals. Not because they are minorities. To suggest otherwise, like you are, is blatantly racist.

And what are we supposed to do about criminals when our police can't seem to tell the difference between someone who is dangerous, and someone who isn't?

Is it one big one or a bunch of smaller ones?
