Derrion Albert -- Soweto?

Video: Teen Attacked, Beaten to Death in Black Teen on Black Teen Rampage
Nah, not Soweto.
That ain't South Africa. If it were, they'd be necklacing (can you say Winnie Mandela?) instead of beating on boys -- killing innocent beauties -- with big ole Chicago planks.
That's Chicago.
The south side of Chicago.
The "For the first time in my adult life I'm proud to be an American" side of Chicago.
The Jesse "Heimytown" Jackson/Jesse Jackson Junior./the Jesse Operation PUSH side of Chicago.
The Farrakhan/Nation of Islam side of Chicago.
The Fr. Pfleger side of Chicago.
The Reverend Wright/Trinity Church side of Chicago.
The Skip "Yo Mama" Gates -- wait, he's in Cambridge. Nevermind.
The Obama/Acorn side of Chicago.
That would be the odd, kooky, insane, pathetic, creepy, hater, poseur, stinking side of Chicago, coincidentally the south side of Chicago, where all of them Community Organizin' chickens be comin' home to roost.

God bless Chicago? Goddamn Chicago.

Get up Derrion. Get up.

God help us all.






Unless it's a fake stop on the way to Afghanistan, I guess it is more important that our President, our First Lady and our Oprah do their oddly mad dash over to Copenhagen to get those Olympics games (hmmmm) to streets of Chicago rather than to look look looksee at what's really happening in the real world, or, on the real streets of their real Chicago.
To coin a phrase: You're doing a heck of a job, Brownie.

It a hip hop thang.

Later we can address the commentary of the video camera operators.

Perps. Here ya go.
Don't know, don't care.

And summing it all up nicely: A memorial was erected on the spot where Albert was killed, but then someone burned it down.

Fake stop en route thought added 7 a.m. 9/30. Wouldn't that be sweet.
