GET OUT WHILE YOU STILL CAN

"It's been a long day, from Downtown Chicago, to the East Side of Chicago, to the South Side, and it's sad to say that they're boarding up windows, blocking off entrances to businesses once again in anticipation of more rioting and looting."
"Stay woke."
Chicago has had a horrendous number of homicides recently. Why is it only an issue when a cop is involved?

GOOD SHOOT DOESN'T MATTER:
The video appears to show Toledo holding a pistol in his hand less than a second before the officer shot him fatally in the chest.
Police found the pistol a few feet away, behind the fence.
CBS NEWS THROWS GAS ON THE FIRE:
"CBS News, however, tweeted a video formatted for mobile devices. As a result, both sides of the bodycam footage were cropped and the image of Toledo holding the gun was omitted."
Obviously riots mean more news.

FROM THE COMMENTS:
"The Toledo family is up$et because obviously, if a gun-carrying 13-year old is killed by police at 2:30 AM, it's not their fault, the police must be to blame."
MEANWHILE BACK AT THE RANCH:
One person is in police custody after reports that a person was shot in the stomach at Bloor Street West and Ossington Avenue Thursday afternoon.
Police arrived on the scene, took a suspect into custody and recovered a firearm.
