Homan Square revealed: how Chicago police 'disappeared' 7,000 people

From August 2004 to June 2015, nearly 6,000 of those held at the facility were black, which represents more than twice the proportion of the city’s population. But only 68 of those held were allowed access to attorneys or a public notice of their whereabouts, internal police records show.

The new disclosures, the result of an ongoing Guardian transparency lawsuit and investigation, provide the most detailed, full-scale portrait yet of the truth about Homan Square, a secretive facility that Chicago police have described as little more than a low-level narcotics crime outpost where the mayor has said police “follow all the rules”.

The police portrayals contrast sharply with those of Homan Square detainees and their lawyers, who insist that “if this could happen to someone, it could happen to anyone”. A 30-year-old man named Jose, for example, was one of the few detainees with an attorney present when he surrendered to police. He said officers at the warehouse questioned him even after his lawyer specifically told them he would not speak.

“The Fillmore and Homan boys,” Jose said, referring to police and the facility’s cross streets, “don’t play by the rules.”

Some were told if they ever attended another protest, they were in big trouble. This is a test run for the American Gestapo, to demonstrate that nothing will stop these tactics. Indefinite detainment without Miranda or outside communication will be next. The administration's question, "Do we own enough judges now to get away with this?". So far, it looks like the answer is, "Yes".

Or, preferably: For once in your despicable career as a shitposter, go out and buy a big bucket of decency, so you can then type the words: "No, sorry, as usual I didn't have a point. I just like to disrupt any semblance of rational discussion that threatens to show my Trumpnazi viewpoints are shit." -- Christian R.

The problem is that the more carefully-spoken ones who wield the institutional power decided to put one of the raving loons in front of their party. -- Drew
