Fun Times in Cleveland Again
New center to help prevent gun violence coming to Cleveland [More]
Nice parroting of the government’s narrative, “real reporter” Julia Bingel.
Looking forward to the follow-up in a year on how it all came true.
Speaking of Catastrophic Either Way
1 dead after attempting to carjack Amazon delivery vehicle… “It’s catastrophic either way,” said Graff. “I am more concerned as a sponsor of reasonable gun control.” [More]
What could be more “reasonable” than controls “sponsored” by someone who admits he was oblivious as things were going down and would have been helpless if he’d been aware?
And it took two “real reporters” to write that story and they left out the main point?
And what happened to the driver?
Even if a delivery driver has a concealed carry permit, Amazon has a stringent policy restricting delivery drivers from carrying guns.
Stop Me If You’ve Heard This One Before
This year, grants will be prioritized for organizations that focus on youth diversion and mentoring, and violence interruption, among other related areas, according to a news release. [More]
And we quickly saw the dividends from 2023 “effort”s…
It’s working about as well as it does in St. Louis.
And it depends upon what the meaning of the word “decline” is.

Busting Morons for Headlines
A Cleveland man who made thousands of dollars by buying and selling guns used in shootings and homicides said little on Tuesday as a federal judge sentenced him to more than 11 years in prison. Kenneth Smith, 23, apologized for selling 32 guns to undercover federal agents in less than three weeks, netting $24,000. The guns had been used in 30 shootings, including several homicides. [More]
The rest of the story is paywalled and the only other thing I could find is he did all this while being a “prohibited person” himself:
KENNETH SMITH, 23, East Cleveland, was charged with Engaging in the Business of Dealing Firearms without a Federal Firearms License, Illegal Possession of a Machinegun, and being a Felon in Possession of Firearms.
It does raise the question why they needed to drag it out over 32 guns and three weeks when one sale could have done the trick, and for some reason a South Park bust comes to mind (NSFW).

The Obvious Solution
Cleveland councilman’s ‘unsettling’ run-in with gunfire puts spotlight on crime, policing during first day of budget talks … Bishop asked: “What is the strategy?” [More]
I thought they had that figured out…

Six Degrees of Kevin Bellyachin’
Ohio needs a red flag law to prevent needless deaths [More]
In other words, grinning useful idiot Kevin interacted with the nut job, noticed and/or said nothing, and is now trying to alleviate his guilt by denying due process to everyone.
He’s one of these and one of these. Surprise, surprise, he’s one of these:
I am a progressive Democrat…
Read down further and you’ll also see him parroting the “assault-style rifle” narrative, meaning if you give him red flags he’ll be on to the next objective, and then the next…

Fun Times in Cleveland Again
Mayor Justin Bibb and the Cleveland Foundation have announced the first recipients of grants from Cleveland’s violence-prevention fund, which the mayor describes as an historic, long-term investment in public safety. [More]
No doubt they have cost/benefit metrics to document how much violence will be prevented…? They don’t? They have no idea? This is simply a bunch of fraudulent and incompetent Democrats poltroons who don’t have a clue taking unearned credit and sticking their snouts in the trough while the lapdog press eats it up and regurgitates it for public consumption?
Hey, at least we’re not Detroit…

So Much for ‘Crime Gun Intelligence’
“The flow of crime guns to those people. How are they being armed? Many of them are felons, people who the law says can’t have weapons yet there finding them anyway.” [More]
So the guy in charge admits what he’s doing isn’t working and his solution is to do more of it…?
And marvel at the way professional “Authorized Journalists” are not only subject matter ignorant but grade-schoolers with their stock-in-trade, the English language.
So much for the “tenants” of journalism…

If Only They’d Disarm You and Me…
The U.S. Marshals and Cleveland police have taken custody of Antonio Baker, who is accused in at least three shootings, including one murder… U.S. Marshals took the second suspect, Bryce Tanksley, 18, into custody Thursday morning. The third suspect, a 15-year-old boy, was shot and killed Wednesday night… [More]
Between white supremacy and easy access to guns, I’d say Cleveland has a problem.
Proof That ‘Replacement Theory’ is a Racist Right-Wing Trope
Cuyahoga County needs people to reverse its decades-long population decline, and millions of people throughout the world need somewhere safe to go. So why not bring them here? [More]
Whether decline is a bad thing or not depends on the population.
Chris Ronyane, of course, is a Democrat.
Good thing this has nothing to do with that “single issue.” And I have that on good authority.

Fun Times in Cleveland Again
The suspect was described by police as about 20 years old, 5′10″ tall with a thin build, and was wearing a green hoodie and jeans. [More]
They had to provide a photo to show what “real reporter” Rachel Vadaj and her editors dare not tell you.
“Gun-free school zone,” eh?

Fun Times in Cleveland Again
“If the violence were taking place in Strongsville, if the violence was taking place in Westlake, if the violence were taking place on the east side — far east side — everybody would be in far different emotional outrage about what’s taking place,” said Rev. Kenneth Chalker of First United Methodist Church. [More]
What we have here is a failure to comprehend why that is.
That and an insistence on following the path of most destruction.

Rash Decisions
Two men are accused of a committing rash of robberies at several dollar stores and pharmacies in Cleveland and Euclid. According to prosecutors, the men committed six robberies in 12 days. [More]
And I suppose before this “rash” they’d lived the lives of young saints…?
Grieveland
Student shot and killed at bus stop near John Adams high school in Cleveland [More]
And “gun violence”?
As long as the conversation is dominated by subsidized distractors like Cleveland Peacemakers Alliance and idiot narrative parroters in the media, the focus will continue to be on the effect instead of the cause.
We’re the Only Ones Overkilling Enough
On Nov. 29, 2012, a police chase involving 60 police cruisers through multiple cities in Northeast Ohio ended with 13 officers firing 137 shots into a car leading to the deaths of two unarmed individuals, Timothy Russell and Malissa Williams. [More]
They almost tied with Bonnie and Clyde!
The important thing is, they all made it home at the end of their shift.

Motor City Madness
Detroit makes TIME’s ‘World’s Greatest Places’ list, 1 of only 5 US cities [More]
And they made the Bloomberg Top 50!
Even Cleveland feels superior.

Action Jackson: The Next Generation
Murder warrant issued for Frank Jackson’s great-grandson [More]
The grandson was no prize, either.
Figures, ol’ Action was determined to disarm you and me.
