The Running Rahm Story

  • Activists upset over cuts to mental health clinics interrupted Mayor Rahm Emanuel at an event Sunday.

    The mayor was actually leaving the event at the time.

    Emanuel's security detail and police kept the protesters at a distance.

    Since announcing cuts and closures of mental health clinics, there have been numerous demonstrations by people who rely on the clinics for care.

See, Rahm was just leaving when those noisy serfs started hassling him.

Unless you read Channel 5's coverage:

  • Mayor Rahm Emanuel can't seem to escape protesters these days.

    [...] The protesters, upset over the closures, went straight to the source Sunday and interrupted Emanuel during an Earth Day event.

    Demonstrators yelled non-stop as the mayor helped a group of children plant a tree on the Southwest Side. The mayor's bodyguards and Chicago Police tried to keep the protesters at a distance, but after a few minutes, the mayor left the event early.

In the second story, Rahm was chased from the event, not "just leaving." It certainly doesn't look like he ran and the cops appear to have done their jobs. Hopefully, that translates into a huge raise for all officers when (if?) negotiations start any time soon.

That's nothing! You should see the detail at his house. He's afraid of something. No wonder he doesn't care that he closed the old 019. He has constant secutity at his house that is way overboard. If a person looks the wrong way down his block, he's stopped ,searched, and basically held against his will for no other reason than The King of Chicago lives on that block. Then the commander and XO are notified and everybody shits themselves. It's embarassing!

I love how, if he doesn't like the questions being asked, he just ends the press conference/event and just leaves. Typical Napoleon pussy politician. Protesters exercising their First Amendment rights, and he runs like a little beeotch.
