Chicago police are looking for whoever opened fire on a car Sunday afternoon, killing a 7-year-old girl on the city's West Side.
Jaslyn Adams and her 29-year-old father were in the drive-thru lane of a McDonald's when someone shot into their car, family members told CNN affiliate WBBM.
this remains an ongoing problem in places like Chicago, Black Lives Matter protesting when?
Literally wrong about everything.......Interesting statement that I would like to see reason for. It appears that you are arguing just to argue, without any basis behind your words.Quote:

I will wait to read your reply.
I have said and will continue to say that Derek Chauvin should be convicted of manslaughter in this case. Maxine Waters coming to Brooklyn Center, Minnesota does no good for the prosecution.
You think it's wrong because you support police brutality.Quote:

Get of your high horse. You stand on no high ground.
And why not wrestle with your own hypocrisy for once in your life. My god.

there has been rioting on a regular basis, that is unacceptable.
Maxine Waters..
just like the idiots convinced Trump wanted them to riot, there are going to be idiots convinced that Maxine wants them to riot, riot more than they already have been.Quote:
Asked about the Chauvin case, Waters told reporters if the former police officer isn't found guilty of murdering Floyd, "We've got to stay on the street and we've got to get more active, we've got to get more confrontational. We've got to make sure that they know that we mean business."
this is why the judge in the Chauvin trial said what he did, and still her words are not a problem? stop.
If the prosecution is depending on outside events to help or hurt their case then they aren't doing their jobs. The cop is guilty, the film supports this, if these lawyers blow this case it is on them.Quote:

One thing we need to wrestle with after the Chauvin case is over, is the fact that the way he will be convicted is by the police saying that the way he acted wasn't in accordance with police training. And I'm sure they believe that's true, but the truth of the matter is that what he did might have ended in a way that isn't normal, but police training definitely contributed to how things ended up. We need to figure out how to reconcile that with a guilty verdict. It actually won't be as hard to reconcile with a not guilty verdict.Quote:

MLK was great for that. He didn't start that trend, but continue a tradition when those leaders were all we have. And it seems like we are in that situation again, where only black leaders are rabid about our issues. She isn't doing anything that other white politicians haven't done.Quote:

If the political system and people don't like Maxine Waters then undercut her support. Be more about pushing black issues, which most of them can benefit everybody or social issues in general than you won't have a Maxine Waters.
Here is a story about this case that you might want to read:
https://www.cnn.com/2021/04/19/polit...eal/index.html
From the article;
""I'll give you that Congresswoman Waters may have given you something on appeal that may result in this whole trial being overturned," Judge Peter Cahill told defense attorney Eric Nelson on Monday."
If her "stepping outside" causes a mistrial or an acquittal (which is highly unlikely, fortunately), I would send the entire bill for this trial and the subsequent re-trial to her.
