Laquan McDonald police video spurs Chicago protests
Emanuel, on holiday in Cuba, has said he will not step down, but he did bow to protesters and fired police chief Garry McCarthy and agreed to a review of police practices by the U.S. Department of Justice.

Many carried placards that read, “Rahm Resign”, referring to Mayor Rahm Emanuel, and one demonstrator walked shops holding a sign that read, “Shopping for a New Mayor”.
Van Dyke, 37, has been charged with murder and is out on bail pending formal arraignment December 29.
Officers have already worn them in one North Side district.
“If the question is do I want or need Rahm Emanuel’s support for president, with all due respect for the mayor, no I don’t”, Sanders said.
Recently a video was released, showing a white officer killing an unarmed black teenager back in October 2014.
The University of IL at Chicago’s Center for Research in Law and Justice will study the body camera program.
“Specifically, we will examine a number of issues related to the Chicago Police Department’s use of force, including its use of deadly force, racial, ethnic and other disparities in its use of force”, Lynch told the press.
Taking up “Fuera Rahm!” as their rallying cry, the Latino Coalition for Change and other Hispanic groups will join the “Black Christmas” march down Chicago’s main shopping street, Michigan Avenues, on Christmas Eve to demand the resignation of Emmanuel and Cook County State Attorney Anita Alvarez.
Yet, even as protesters insisted they had more than 250,000 signatures on online petitions circulated by national groups including MoveOn.org and Democracy for America, organizers granted that only about 5 percent of those who signed the petitions, or about 12,500 people, were Chicagoans.
“The Magnificent Mile is like the Champs-Élysées of Chicago; its where all the high-end shops and hotels are and it’s where all the tourists go”, Perez said. He faces six counts of first-degree murder and one of official misconduct in 17-year-old Laquan McDonald’s death. Protests have taken place throughout Chicago since the video was released. “This guy is walking away but he’s got a knife in hand”.
The dashcam recordings have no audio.

It shows that at least one officer on the scene was looking for a non-lethal way of subduing the teen.
