Is Chicago a Political Tipping Point?

I’m watching with some interest what’s going on in Chicago right now. It seems to me that’s the investigation on the debate surrounding the event have taken on a bit of a different tenor

As with the previous similar cases elsewhere around the country, I’m quite willing to sit back and watch and let the criminal justice system do its thing.

That said, it strikes me that charges of racism are a little hard to sell in this case. At least, systemic racism. After all the mayor and the vast majority of the Chicago government are black Democrats. And I can’t help but wonder if the revelation that Democrat Rahm Emanuel has been sitting on this case for about a year will be enough to get the voters there off the Democrat Plantation. Nothing else has worked, and it seems logical to ask if this is the tipping point?

Frankly, I doubt it.
