Fun Times in Cleveland Again
Cleveland chief city planner accused of doctoring a death certificate and stealing FMLA pay from city [More]
Looks like she’s well qualified to be a career through feeder…
Cleveland Democrats–maybe there’s still something in the Cuyahoga River water… where effluvia used to be measured in condoms per liter:
Thank You, Captain Obvious!
All Politics is Local
Demarcus Johnson, 18, of Euclid
Antwon Jones, 18, of Warrensville Heights
Alonte Walker, 18, of Cleveland
Carlos Crenshaw, 19, of Cleveland [More]
I wonder how their mothers vote.
Stupid Is as Stupid Does
An innocent 10-year-old girl lost her life because too many guns are finding their way into the hands of stupid people. [More]
Speaking of stupid, “…too many guns…”? “…finding their way…”?
Got a question for you, O’Malley…

We’re the Only Ones Good Enough
Cleveland police officer fired after being charged with drunken driving, mishandling service weapon… He said Schmitz “accepted responsibility” and is otherwise “a good public servant.” [More]
I like how union flack Henry Hilow makes excuses for inexcusable behavior.
I wonder who he’s going to sue this time.

Trough Feeders Strike Back
Looked at Another Way…
Cleveland Peacemakers lose $2M federal grant amid City’s push to treat gun violence as an health epidemic [More]
Alternative headline:
Feds decide not to waste any more tax money by funneling it to clueless, trough-feeding morons
Somebody wanna tell the “authorized journalists” about indefinite articles…?

But No, You’d Rather Have Your Guns
Cleveland 10-year-old boy in vehicle shot, killed; No arrests yet [More]
What kind of heartless racist would oppose commonsense gun safety laws to stop this?
If Only They Would Disarm You and Me!
Cleveland fugitive charged in 2022 murder captured with loaded gun at deli [More]
I wonder what laws Giffords says we need…?
Flanagan’s Folly
A 14-year-old boy who was given “many second chances” after being arrested multiple times before is suspected of wreaking havoc in the community with dozens of recent crimes, and Cleveland Mayor Justin Bibb said he is fed up. [More]
Fed up enough to name the little reptile and throw his @$$ in a cage until he’s 21, adding on additional time for infractions he’s sure to commit behind bars?
Face it, the retard will never be trustable without a custodian, or even with one.
And speaking of retards:
Fun Times in Cleveland Again
Video of shootout in The Flats shows bullets narrowly miss high school rowing team [More]
City leaders have been focused on wrong priorities to stop this since forever…
At least we’re not Detroit.
We’re the Only Ones Typographical Enough
Murder suspect mistakenly released from Cuyahoga County Jail because of a typo [More]
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…
