GERALDO RIVERA: How many more will be shot and killed before we recognize that this is a crisis?

This is an urban civil war, this is a ghetto circular firing squad. People are dying, men, women, and children are being shot, and they obsess about nothing. They obsess about theater. They obsess about demonstrators being herded off the street.

When they look at what's happening, my goodness -- the streets of Chicago are running red.
