the reporter kept talking over him and being incredibly rude and condescending (after I posted the preceding). Even so, the organizer managed to school the reporter and get in the last word anyway.

Shame on the Chicago pigs, shame on Rahm Emmanuel and shame on the people of the America who are allowing this police violence in their names.
