In retrospect, that wasn't a good decision on Officer Friendly's part

CHICAGO — A parolee and another man attacked a Chicago cop who was trying to catch someone who had a firearm outside a funeral gathering on the West Side, according to CPD reports.

A crowd was gathered in the 4600 block of West Madison for a midday memorial service at a church when the 37-year-old cop saw someone with a gun, one CPD report said. He chased the gunman, but men from the crowd swarmed the cop, causing him to fall, according to the report.

  5. A gun at a funeral is an instant giveaway. Seems normal to the "equatorial" folks!

  6. Whenever there's a "gang funeral", let's provide everyone who attends with a firearm and let nature take it's course- much more economical than killing each other one by one-
