“At CAIR-Chicago, we are sickened by CPD’s blatant disregard of a peaceful protestor’s First Amendment rights. To make matters worse, she appears elderly, struggling to get up from the ground once pushed over.
For this incredibly shameful and egregious behavior from CPD, we call for an immediate investigation into the conduct of officers in the video who knocked this elderly woman to the ground. This dehumanizing behavior has us worried for the safety of other peaceful protestors.”
