Emanuel, who has been mayor since 2011 and is facing growing calls to resign from members of his own party, urged locals to “be a neighbor” and “speak up” to help law enforcement pursue killers, gang members and drug dealers.
After one particularly violent weekend earlier this month when more than 70 people were shot, Emanuel deflected questions about police staffing and strategy. Instead, he ignited a firestorm when he said there needs to be a politically incorrect conversation about character and values.
“This may not be politically correct," he said, "but I know the power of what faith and family can do. … Our kids need that structure. … I am asking … that we also don’t shy away from a full discussion about the importance of family and faith helping to develop and nurture character, self-respect, a value system and a moral compass that allows kids to know good from bad and right from wrong.”

Well, he's not wrong.
Morals are definitely in question. Morale is probably pretty bad, too.
It's the result of Democrats breaking up the black family for the last 60 years.
Since when did character and values become politically incorrect? 1992 would be my guess...
He is right for the first time in his political career
black culture doesn`t like it when you tell the truth about them.
