Chicago Mayor Emanuel Urges "Remain Peaceful" As Protests Begin After Video Shows Cop Killing Black Teen

Latest update...

Peaceful Protests have begun...

 

Turning Physical...

 

 

Video...

 

 

*  *  *

Just as we warned earlier..

With the release of this video, we suggest anyone living in and around Chicago 'brace' for potential social unrest. The Chicago Police Department has released video footage of the officer-involved shooting of 17-year-old Laquan McDonald, who was struck 16 times during a confrontation with officers.

The dashcam video, described by Cook County State’s Attorney Anita Alvarez says that this video is "graphic, violent, and chilling," is expected to provoke a very strong emotional reaction from Chicago’s very large African-American community.

As John Kass, a columnist for the Chicago Tribune, said, the video "could tear Chicago apart," which is why Mayor Emanuel has already urged Chicagoans, "it is fine to be passionate, but it is essential to remain peaceful."

The following comes from CNN…

Laquan McDonald was walking down a Chicago street the night of October 20, 2014, carrying a four-inch knife and behaving erratically, authorities say.

 

A police officer told him to drop the knife. He didn’t listen, and the officer fired on him out of fear for his life, according to a police union spokesman.

 

McDonald, 17, died. He was shot 16 times.

Now, more than a year later, the public will be able to see what happened.

 

Warning: this video is graphic (the confrontation begins around 5:00)

*  *  *

As RT reports, Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel urged calm as City Hall got set to release police dash cam footage from the shooting incident, which occurred in October 2014. During the incident, 37-year-old Jason Van Dyke, a white officer, shot and killed McDonald, an African-American teen.

“I understand people will be upset and want to protest when they see this video,” Emanuel told reporters during a Tuesday afternoon press conference.

 

Emanuel cited the McDonald family, saying, “They have asked for calm, and for those who do protest to do so peacefully.”

 

“It is fine to be passionate, but it is essential to remain peaceful,” Emanuel added.

Earlier in the day, Van Dyke became the first on-duty Chicago officer to be charged with first-degree murder. He was ordered held without bail at a hearing. He has been placed on a "no pay" status by the department. As Michael Snyder adds,

Over the past few years, Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown and Freddie Gray have all become household names because of the way that they died, and now it looks like Laquan McDonald’s name will be added to that list. But the situation in Chicago is potentially even more volatile what we witnessed in either Ferguson or Baltimore.

 

More than a million African-Americans live in the Chicago metropolitan area, and the crime rate in the city has already been skyrocketing. In fact, it is being projected that Chicago’s murder rate will increase by 20 percent in 2015. This is a city that is always living on the edge of chaos, and now the case of Laquan McDonald could be the spark that sets Chicago ablaze.

 

After everything that has happened over the past few years, the last thing that we need is another incident that will make racial tensions in this country even worse. Unfortunately, that appears to be exactly what we are going to get.

Another point - i suspect by many of your comments you are a white male in your 50's or above. But these 'Blacks' are going to either help to disarm this military police state or die trying - more than you fuckwads on the net are doing. Buy your ammo but do nothing about it, while your neighbour who is part of local law enforcement gets all of his fancy new toys to execute people like Judge Dred.

Its starting to get dangerous out there and here's why.  If a police officer can be charged with murder for doing his job then many folks just aren't going to become cops and these animals that put themselves purposely in harm's way will have more freedom to reign terror on folks and guess who will suffer the brunt of it?  Their neighbors in the inner cities.  Blacks don't understand you can't just absolve yourself of responsibility to raise your own offspring and expect the government to take care of you and your brood from cradle to grave.  The black community should try and better themselves instead of blaming everyone else for their failures.

this guy sounds like a government troll contributing to the problem ..................cops can practically get away with anything and if you try to report them you might even get threaten.............if the police were actually doing there jobs, crime would not be like this. its really not that difficult to figure out. when i was a lifegard we were all told that if you are a good lifegard you will never have to get in the water. so if the cops were good cops they would never have to shot people and you would not have prison piling up like they are...........

At the very minimum, the cops could have used their vehicles to provide a barrier between themselves and the teenager [IF he had been moving towards them which he WASN'T]; they were probably both too fat and too stupid to act in that manner if there had been a need which there wasn't.  Hell, I was an infantryman in Vietnam and we didn't act that way towards captured prisoners who moments earlier were SHOOTING at us... Clearly this cop has anger issues that will put him behind bars and away from society.

Its funny how the only run in I've ever had with a cop was when I took a shit on a gold course (because I really had to go and couldn't find a bathroom) and some guy in his condo on the course called the cops.  I admitted what I did and paid to have it cleaned up and that was the end of it.  No problems and you know why?  Because I wasn't breaking into cars, or wakling down the street with a knife, or giving the cops any reason to want to unholster their gun.  This is how the majority of folks live and have no issues with cops.  It's the criminals and those training to be one that are the ones that get into trouble.

I don't think the US cops are shooting big enough guns, maybe they should start using tanks to shoot kids, maybe they will only need to shoot a kid once!

But then will they need to shoot at all, if they are protected by an armoured tank?

Yes, they will still shoot because the kid had a knife...

If the mainstream media covered these atrocities like they do any form of quasi-white on black crime, there would be a revolution in this country overnight.

Segregation worked well for all involved. It allowed blacks to build good communities with good governance and it allowed whites and other innocents to not be exposed to this kind of terrible behavior.

If that is racist, then the concept of Indian reservations is racist too. Condemn the government before you condemn me. They are the ones who make these terrible policies. I'm just a thinker who might be proven wrong.

This will be one of the few, ( count on one hand) that a cop will be charged.

A girl cop got off after she shot a guy that was face down, unarmed twice, after first tasering him till the battery was dead.

The jury let her walk.

She feared for her life.

Maybe obumner is on to something... The way to lessen the cost of .gov is to just have the Police State cops, just shoot and kill people in the streets that keeps the prison expenses down... and there will always be eonough tax paying islamic refugees to take the place of kids killed in america.

 You seem to approve of pre-emtive murder by cop as well.

I wonder what level of education you have and success in life.

I wonder how name calling has advanced you in your social staus and your career.

 I wonder if you can spell or read very well.

There was no one even close for him to threaten.

The intent of the cops is clear considering they continued to shoot even as he started to fall, and after he was on the ground, and even after he stopped moving on the ground.  And then they took and destroyed the video footage from the Burger King.

It would be hilarious to see you answer to God.

Don't wear white pants, that would be embarassing!

The only difference between you and a typical jihadist is that you don't have the cojones to fight- I mean actually fight for what you believe.

You're all fulla shit as far as I'm concerned.  There is no conflict among actual, sentient humans.  There is only conflict among those who accept the dogma of religion and the direction of leaders.

I don't have a dog in this fight.  If it all wasn't so deadly, your petty little squabbles would be a source of entertainment.

As it is- it's physically and spiritually impossible that all of your petty, squabbling, and deadly belief systems are the one, the only, the true path...

It's entirely possible though, that you're all horribly wrong.

Carry on.

Can't agree, tmosley.

Is there a dude in flowing white robes sitting on a golden throne who knows our every thought and deed and who will, upon our death, judge our ultimate fate?

Not likely.

Is there an energy that is completely beyond our cognition at work here?

Very likely.

The universe, as far as we know, is infinite.  OTOH, our ability to comprehend how that could be is quite limited.

I don't often use the word God.  I can't know what that might be, but UNIX thinks he has it all figured out, so I use the word to keep things on a level he might comprehend.

Even so, he wants to fight.

This morning, I watched three bluebirds and a woodpecker in a contest over a knothole in a poplar tree.  I don't know who will win, but the woodpecker, to me represents a tyrant, acting alone while the bluebirds acted in concert, like sentient beings.

I hope the bluebirds win.

Did you know that there is a wasp that plants its eggs inside of living insects? Said maggots secrete a paralytic but NOT an opiate or any sort of numbing agent.  The victimized insect is slowly eaten alive from the inside out, feeling every horriffic bite as its life force ebbs away.

No. There is no God.

Yup, they're called digger wasps or cicada killers.  I caught one in a baby food jar once.  I don't think they plant eggs inside, and the cicada is but a larva at that point.  Also, I don't know what insects feel, but I've smashed a shitload of black flies in my day, being raised on a livestock farm.

Did you know that black flies (common houseflies) bite?  I do.  They're actually depositing their eggs when they do that.  Same goes for horseflies, but it stings a lot more.

Did you know that if you discard raw chicken it will develop maggots faster than almost anything else.  Do you know why?  The larvae were already buried in the chickens' skin when you purchased it.

Did you think your McChicken sandwich wasn't loaded with dormant larvae?

What does any of that have to do with God?

Well what I meant was never mind the race inuendo, to think that some great change ie. a first for murica,  was going to change anything, what a joke.

 People, ask yourselves, is the world a better place since obahma? Is the US a better place since Obama?

I don't want to hear any excuses, ie look at the hand he was dealt.

 Didn't Obomba brag in a speech that he was really good at killing peopel! He should be ashamed. He will go down in history as the worst murican prseident ever... but he may have some good news... the Donald will probably be worse!

The world is a much much bigger shit hole since he became the president.

Very sad for this young kid. There was obviously a more rational way to handle him while not killing him in the process.

One of my sons goes to WWU, which is in news today, because the college president shut the school down over some threats towards minorities on a social media blog. You can google it. Apparently, the minorities, which make up 25% of the college want to change the Mascot from the White male Viking.

So, I called the school to see what the threats were. I told them we have a right to know since we are paying for his education. I was transferred to the Communications and Public Relations department. A man told me that "you won't ever find out what the threats were", because the University doesn't want other people to get "ideas".

Yet, here's Ram "IDF" Emanuel allowing the public to view the murder of this young man and then calling for calm from the other side of his mouth. This is a provocation if I ever saw one. RAM the IDF Man, is attempting to incite violence.

Because of the blacks. That's why. Stay with me here.

Why don't the blacks have any economic enterprises?  Oh, sure nails and wigs, and, uh,  .........

These people have no drive or initiative to succeed.  They can blame themselves for 98.89 percent of their problems, because they make NO EFFORT to solve them.  Live off of whitey. When whitey leaves, it's burglary, drug dealing, prostitution.  They just can't seem to run an honest business or even have any desire to.

Why did he risk my life, and others on that hiway...Because  1 mile ahead there was a car in the middle of the median that was already surrounded by 5 state troopers....I am sure that the cops that were already there could not have done their job without this trooper being there too.

I have been a relatively good girl and have known cops in every town due to my inability to not get involved in trouble I see.  The cops in USA are good people.  What we are seeing now is drug induced and brainwashing done by none other than the SCOURGE of the earth, Israel. 

SA royal family off spring at some level was busted shipping a ton of methamphetamine into SA.  Cocaine was discovered in massive quantities as well.

There are private companies which provide "vitamins" to the police force,  they have contracts. 

I believe that the cops are being fed drugs they are unaware of and it is causing RAGE.  In my past life, I have done drugs and know that it exaggerates the sense of time and exacerbates the intensity of feelings. 

Whether steroid, meth, cocaine..it does not matter.  DRUG TST THE COPS.

Another thing, the experiments in the medical arena which took place during the Holocaust (aka mass arrest and imprisonment of dissenters in germany) were no less diabolical than what we see in the USA.  It is confidential information but there are people DYING for their treatment after suffering greatly before doing so.  Medications are being priced to factor in upcoming lawsuits.

And who are you minimizing the situation UNIZ?  I want to know which country you are from and if you are a jewish person.  I am waiting for your answer.

Fuck you.  I am not a racist.  I have had friends of every color and religion.  I am far from perfect but this is not one of my flaws.

Turning the cops against the citizens is what I see.  And white people are being assaulted as well.  Watching 100 pound white girls being thrown against the concrete or brick wall, homeless white guys being beaten to a pulp, shot for holding a water hose nozzle are a few confirmed exampled.

When the cops join the people against tyrants, it is game over for the tyrants.  The TYRAWNTS ARE THE BANKERS and they are funding the misery.  You should know that if you read ZH.  When the curtain is pulled, do you really think the cops are going to come to our homes after we have been robbed after we have turned against them?  Fuck no!  The COPS are the only thing standing between us and a robber/rapist/murderer.

The black community is another story.  Wild animals have less anger.  They are fed drugs from puberty, have no jobs, hate the establishment thanks to the BLACK ACTIVISTS who focus on behavior rather than training.

I have pesonally witnessed a black woman nearly murder a man over a 40 dollar bag of weed.  She was reading to go to prison for life over a bag of weed.  Fact is BLACK on BLACK crime is far more pronouced.  There is something wrong within the black community and I believe it is social engineering to oppress.  Black leaders are selling out to the Man $$$ and leaving the kids in ghettos to figure it out themselves save for a few bleeding hearts who donate or go play basketball with them during a photo op.

If you would stop and consider that we are SUNNI AND SHIITES to the bankers who have clearly planned the entire last 50 years out to a T, you would realize this is a tactic DIVIDE AND CONQUER.

Read Romans 1:18-32 and note the phrase "God gave them over"; it is in a progressive succession, we have gone past the third "God gave them over".  That simply means He stands aside and allows us to do what we do best and you have not seen anything yet; just the beginning.

 

Then, you can move along to Matthew 24 verses 3-12....verse 12 "because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold"  Note: we are at the beginning of "birth pains" and any woman will tell you that the beginning is nothing compared to the 2nd stage and that is nothing compared to the final stage.

 

The word of God is the word of truth and the truth is bound up in a person; his name is very familiar and hated..Jesus.  Say it out loud and note how difficult it is to say and not strike some emotional response; mostly negative everything He is; we are not & we hate that.
