A Suntimes reporter quoted our tweet, where we basically called CPD a state sponsored & protected gang. CPD has shot & jailed #LatrellAllen & shot & killed #MiguelVega!

Yesterday a Sheriff & a off duty cop shot people in 2 separate incidents!

#LatrellAllen fortunately survived being shot in the back by CPD & like #JacobBlake he was handcuffed to his bed in the hospital while getting treatment for his injuries. They criminalized him & sent him straight to jail!

#MiguelVega’s family says that he was running away from the gunfire when he got killed by CPD! He won’t be able to share his story & like Latrell he has also been criminalized by CPD & the media! Please donate what you can.

Like #MiguelVega #RekiaBoyd was also shot in the back of the head while running away from a violent cop! We learned from older organizers that CPD criminalized her too saying she & her friends had guns! They didn’t & the cop got away with murder!

Like #LatrellAllen #MauriceGrantonJr was also shot in the back by CPD, but he died from his injuries! His family still doesn’t have justice! .@AMarch4OurLives joined us & @NoCopAcademy to protest this at city hall. Along with our demands 4 #NoCopAcademy

There are hundreds of other examples of CPD shooting/killing people & criminalizing them afterwards!
We can’t reform them, they have to be abolished! We can start this process by first defunding them! Please fill this out!

“Yes, a lot of false/misleading info spread on social media after police shot #LatrellAllen in #Englewood. But interrogating social media, and not how police systemically lie and conceal info, is an intentional misdirection. #DefundCPD” .@radfagg
