they're from the same city. ran somewhat in the same circles that they were both powerful new yorkers. so they know each other. they have something to work with. that doesn't mean they will see eye-to-eye on policy nominations.

up on the stand and testified that you've done it, knowing that you're going to go back out in the same city that you were in when you belonged to that gang and maybe take your chances of what denouncing them might do to you today. you're like this close to succeed. and you're so afraid of that. that it's easier for you to fail. just think about this hearing today and all this argument about whether you're a good person or you're not. there's only really one opinion in this room right now that matters and it's mine. i think you are a good person and i think you're going to make it. for that reason, today the court is order that you serve 30 days in the lake county juvenile center and i'm going to give you credit for the time you served, i'm going to release you today and order you released to the custody of your mother. >> okay? >> your honor, may i hug miss bob- >> if they want to hug you, you can hug them. >> i'm not going to make that request. >> you're going to be okay. >> thanks, bob. >> this is my first time not to hug you, miss sarah. >> i know. >> even though he did test dirty for ma

incredible city and this energy and this optimism, this strength, if you think that city and you are in the same citythere's nothing that's going to stop chicago. but for a child out of woodlawn or back of the yards, if they look at this and think that city has nothing to do with them or their future, we will never be what we can be. when you talk about reactions, my first test and primary test is i think chicago, it's rated consistently as one of the top ten most economically competitive cities in the world. ninth, eighth or seventh. we talk about this urban dynamism. can i create a city where that dynamism isn't in part of the city but every city and can every child regardless of where they go to school see that future of that city, embracing their future. if i can bridge that divide there's nothing that's going to hold us back. that's the more primary divide than the divide between chicago and mchenry county. no insult, mchenry county. that to me -- and then i do believe cities have the primary but need help, resources and tools to bridge that divide for one future. then we are all that stronger b
