@cbctom Trust me, in 1968 one didn't need 24-hour cable to see what was happening in Chicago. The broadcast networks covered it constantly as they switched from the convention floor to the tear gas and nightsticks. — PolitiTweet.org

"The whole world is watching" was a refrain by antiwar protesters at the 1968 Chicago Convention in response to the "police riot" by Mayor Daley's cops. The words are equally applicable today. As are the words from "Hill Street Blues" to the police: "Let's be careful out there." — PolitiTweet.org

@seandriscoll "Gestapo tactics in the streets of Chicago." And Daley screaming at Ribicoff with words that you didn't have to be much of a lip-reader to understand. — PolitiTweet.org
