Calls for action outside beaten teen's funeral

The funeral of a Chicago teenager whose beating death was caught on video was attended Saturday by scores of family members, officials and community leaders, including the Rev. Jesse Jackson. Derrion Albert, a 16-year-old honors student, was a bystander caught in the middle of a street fight. "We must declare a state of emergency," Jackson told reporters. "We have an obligation to prepare for our children safe passage."
