Don't worry, the system will let the one guy go down for it, and let the other cops who attempted to cover get off with a stern warning.
It happened under Rahm Emanuel's watch, and he did nothing to prevent it.
Sounds like a good reason to fire the police chief....
9/11 happened under Bush's watch and he did nothing to prevent it. He stuck around for 2 full terms.
I am not defending Emanuel, but there has to be more than "it happened on his watch"
The shooting itself is not his direct fault. The aftermath, though...The mayor is supposed to be watching everything the police do on every call? He has no work of his own to do than monitor every call a cop goes out on?

Apparently, you want Emanuel fired based on some other situation where a President of a college was fired. Is there any evidence to justify such a comparison?If the president of a university can be held personally accountable for every isolated claim of racism, (even off campus claims), then the mayor of a city can be held personally personally accountable for the actions and misconduct of it's police department. Do you think Timothy Wolfe should have been forced to step down? (just looking for consistency here)
Officers had to request backup with a taser. Why weren't they supplied with tasers? If all you give your cops is guns, guess what they are going to use to solve problems.
This department is being mismanaged.
Yep, lots of ways these cops could have handled it.Beanbag to the chest would have dropped the kid like a rock.

It can be found on YouTube searching:I just watched the video, and I'm saddened and disturbed by it. I can think of about ten different ways that "officer" could have handled it without shooting him.
