The Rundown

Do cops have to be a little crooked to get stuff done? We hear from the folks at the North Lawndale Roundtable, who shockingly, say yes.  Especially when it comes to policing rough neighborhoods. We'll also have some folks from the other side of the debate, and if we're lucky, some actual cops.  What do YOU think? Do cops have to be a little crooked to get stuff done?

Plus, updates on John McCain's speech from last night, and a delicious buffet of your pieces from Vocalo.org!
