“Apology.” After blaming Tamir Rice, a 12 year old child for his own murder. No concrete action. BS
Mayor Jackson apologizes to Tamir Rice's family: "Very insensitive to the tragedy in general, the family, and the victim in particular."
— Jamil Smith جميل كريم (@JamilSmith) March 2, 2015
"We are sincerely apologetic of our misuse and mischaracterization of the complaint," Mayor Jackson said of Cleveland's response.

Mayor Jackson says that had the city not responded to the Tamir Rice lawsuit, they would have lost. Admits the words were insensitive.

Mayor Jackson asked whether or not the city still agrees with the "insensitive" response's premise. He says the court will decide.
