A group of drug dealers are shown dealing and commiting general lawlessness (public urination, partying in the middle of the street) under a Chicago police camera. Didn't Chicago's mayor recently gloat about how under control his city was during the NATO summit?

Well yeah, but the mayor is one of those "machine" politicians and a loyal Democrat so he wouldn't know lots of truths if they slapped the hell out of him.

That's not a Chicago Police camera. It's a dude taping from his room.

Second, I only saw one police SUV, and about ten guys standing around when it showed up. That party wasn't there. Perhaps the most criminal thing here is that Chicago doesn't have enough officers to respond. Then again, the police only witnessed a couple of guys standing around. Does Chicago have curfew? Is one cop dumb enough to try and arrest ten gang members?

I think my favorite part is the comments section for that video. Gangbangers and gang enablers criticizing the person who uploaded it for not wanting to live in a ****ty neighborhood.

yes the moral outrage of why dont the cops do something. and when the police arrest how many law suits for needless harrassment and brutal violations of civil rights?
interesting often the same people that make the 911 call are the ones who file the complaint and law suit.
work it baby work it.

The police camera is on the upper left side, you can see it, it has a blue light.

This is one of those open air drug markets, dozens exist on the South and West Side.

According to who, you?? Where did you get that fact from, a comic book or sit com?

I hate to break it to you, but people who complain about cops aren't calling 911. You probably think that gangbangers are the first ones to call the cops when people start shooting
