CHICAGO (CBS) â Activists protesting the handling of the police shooting of Laquan McDonald targeted City Hall on Saturday.
A few dozen activists carried a coffin and chanted âno more bloodshedâ and â16 shots and a cover-up.â
McDonald was shot 16 times by officer Jason Van Dyke, who was charged with murder on Tuesday, 13 months after the shooting.

And what will this weekend’s body count be for the gang shootings in Chicago?
Rahm has to go!
Yeah, maybe cops should just HUGE guys with knives, high on PCP.
Great plan.
HUG, not huge.
I think they’re on to something here.
Would Rahm be mayor today if this had been made public a year ago?
Probably not high....the weather isn’t all that “nice” in Chicago at the moment.
They voted for him, so why are they complaining now?
Thee protests are being ginned up by the teachers unions to put the squeeze on Rahm.
Odd how they never seem to be marching about that.
Anybody know the numbers? By now it is probably in the hundreds killed and thousands injured.
I can’t imagine having to live in the Chicago area. Or Detroit.

This seems always to be the narrative. Was he shot 16 times or were 16 shots fired at him? There's a huge difference.
Holy cow.
Shocking, isn’t it. Wow.
Thanks for the info.
Well maybe hug huge guys with knives.
I love it! They’re calling for the mayor’s arrest! Blacks wanting Obama’s boy arrested! Maybe they’re finally waking up. I doubt it.
Don’t know what to blame, but by George blame something.
To cut against the taboos does indicate a measure of passion here.
As an aside personally I’m a little concerned about “PCP excuses” because of how that looks at the end of a race to the bottom. They don’t have to know the person even took a drug, there has to be only an unquantified fear. If it is possible to leave the scene to get better facilities to deal with the problem without endangering other people, that really ought to be considered. Not everything needs be escalated on the spot.
Incidentally I wonder about the proportion of these “brutality” events to the preponderance of AA beneficiaries on police forces. If an officer takes a chance and thereby lets a subject that he had the legal right to kill live, there might be more than one reason to call that mighty white of him.
I am trying not to call the black community specially inherently evil, but to a majority they are in an embrace of evil that other ethnic groups aren’t. Part of this could be historical circumstance. There is a need for “spiritual reparations” from America’s slavery folly that so many cynical groups have capitalized upon to create chaos for their own gain. Notice I said spiritual, not economic. Without God behind it, no amount of dollars would do any good here. And with God behind it, it might not cost a penny, only certain people’s prides.
They want all of those government jobs (including political office); half a century of reparations hasn’t done enough. They want more money/power, and they want it handed to them. In nearby Newark NJ, black elected officials protested the firing of a black hospital’s “director of public relations and community affairs”; they are all about the bling and don’t even hide it anymore.
I stress to my children that they must excel, because the workforce they will enter is closed to all white men that aren’t exceptional.
