Kid gets murdered on a T bus and City Councilor Charles Yancey is angry - at the police. John says:
...If I were cynical I'd say it sounds like he's leveraging the death of a teenager to promote his agenda. At best he's simply confused.

I, too read about the murder of a teenager on the bus.
What a horrible thing to have happen!! And in broad daylight, with lots of people watching, yet!! Hope the suspects are caught and put away for a long, long time. Can't blame Yancy for being angry about it, especially since it's in his district, but, and not that I'm uncritical of some of the behaviour that police have exhibited in the not-=so-distant past, but I can't really and totally blame the police, either, in this case. Just my two cents.
Uh...
And apparently it's appropriate to refer to an individual as a "thug" in a newspaper.
