Bloody Chicago recorded 18 murders in ONE DAY, making it the city’s deadliest day in 60 years.

The media manipulates us all. Unfortunately a mini-Pravda going on in this country.
They report primarily what THEY, and their supporters want to share to fit into THEIR narrative and beliefs. And IMO for ONE single purpose - this NOVEMBER. period.

I felt very sad reading your article and then I got to the end where it turned political. I understand your feelings because I come from a family with a long history of being in law-enforcement and what you were discussing was very tragic but then at the end you turned your post into YOUR political opinion.

I thought there is a disclaimer issued indicating that we should not turn it into a political debate.

Just saying.

You beat me to the punch. I was thinking the same thing. How many seconds or minutes did those media outlets dedicate to Dorn as opposed to the hours or even days they dedicated to Floyd. You do, however, have to give those media outlets credit. The more they fan the flames and show the Floyd incident the more they rile up a certain base. If they can keep them riled up till November..........

About the same time unicorns fly.

Rev Al Sharpron don't seem the least bit concerned with black on black murder. There's no white folk to blame.

I'm sure Floyd would have been right there looting with them were he alive. I'm sure he's having a real chuckle wherever he is right now. Was high on drugs and passing phony money when arrested. Buried in a gold casket paid for by Joe Merriweather. He should be paying for David Dorn's funeral.

R I P Captain Dorn, a good life lived. Shame no one cared... its despicable......No.. Floyd did not deserve to die like that, BUT should not have been glorified because of it, and his past life. Bad cop Chavin yes.... training rookies to be the same, he has now wrecked their careers as well because he was "in charge". Changes needed.. but not defunding.....I wish folk would think of the consequences of that statement.

Well stated.

I agree

So Capt. Dolan just gets a recognition on Facebook and one day on the News. How sad is that. He was trying to protect storeowners from looters and he died in vein. In the meantime, all we hear is about Floyd dying and the riots, looting and deaths of our law enforcement people--and then those once again speaking against Trump for wanting to send in our military--to say this is not serious enough to do that is totally leftist. Our National Guard should be sent in to eliminate these violent protesters and they should answer for the death of Capt. Dolan; Floyd's murderer was convicted, who will be convicted for Capt. Dolan's murder and the murder of any other of our law enforcement people!!! Constitutional right of protesting should be ban at this time because it is totally out of control.

Nothing like stating the obvious. However, it's amazing that half the population cannot and will not admit to the obvious. Maybe it's the eyeglasses. I wonder where they buy their eyeglasses. The ones the blur the obvious or somehow change the obvious to something they'd rather see. I'd like to try on a pair of those glasses. I guess they're something like beer goggles.

It is amazing. Several great people in my town have died in the past 3 months.

NO funerals were allowed. Still not allowed, BUT....
