Chicago Police Corruption, Not A New Story.

We re-post this one we wrote for New Geography on a book on Illinois corruption. Here's Thomas Gradel and Dick Simpson:

Since 1960, more than three hundred Chicago police officers have been convicted of serious crimes, such as drug dealing, beating civilians, destroying evidence, protecting mobsters, theft, and murder. However, this doesn’t include all the illegal and unethical activities that have gone undetected or were covered up internally by the police department.

Yet, many progressives think only the police should own handguns! When the Chief of Detectives is corrupt , you'll got problems.
