#RahmResign
Protests continued unabated over Rahm Emanuel’s covering for killer cop Jason Van Dyke and his officer accessories to the crime, all so that Rahm could ensure his re-election.
As news outlets revealed emails to top Emanuel aides showing their knowledge of the Laquan McDonald police shooting video, demands escalated to demanding the mayor’s resignation.
Here are pics and videos of recent demonstrations — all held without permits — as demonstrators show their contempt for a City that fails to prosecute murderous cops and their accessories except when forced to.
