[CHICAGO.CBSLOCAL] Reverend Jesse Jackson plans to lead yet another protest of the city's handling of the Laquan McDonald case Sunday on State Street in the Loop, reports WBBM's Mike Krauser.
The point of the protest, says Jackson, is the cover-up. There are written reports from officers at the scene when Jason Van Dyke shot Laquan McDonald 16 times that don't fit the dashcam video.
"The concealing of information that the public and their families deserve to know and attempt to pay money as a substitute for justice," Jackson said. "If justice is for sale, we're really all in quite a perilous predicament."
Like a stopped clock, Jesse very occasionally gets one right. Of course, alleging that Chicago cops cover stuff up is a very safe allegation to make from a betting point of view...

Djibouti-- a country of a million people and strategically located at the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden-- hosts military bases for the United States, Japan and France.
Much of Africa’s smallest nation prosperity is owed to Guelleh’s People’s Rally for Progress (RPP). According to GO political analysts, Guelleh is a figure loved as he is loathed, with a roster of ill-skilled opposition parties rallying against his re-election bid. To his credit, Djibouti has witnessed unprecedented economic surge for the last decade.
