Ohio Sheriff Agency Under Fire For Brutalizing Interns!

An Ohio county lockup facing heat for its guards treating interns like shit.

Phil Plummer is the current elected leader for the Montgomery County, Ohio Sheriff's Department.

Plummer is a Republican who won reelection constantly with no real opposition. He often tries to be the "work across the aisle" lawman. He's not as polarizing as Wisconsin sheriff David Clarke.

Well this week, he has to answer to a lot of things. He has to answer to county commissioners about the racist emails, the reckless behavior of his deputies, and now his correction guards treating interns in the county lockup improperly

The Montgomery County Board of Commissioners announced they have for the U.S. Department of Justice investigation into the allegations of civil rights violations at the lockup.

Commissioner Dan Foley, a Democrat and the rest of the county board members express very serious concern about the the conduct and allegations at the lockup.

Seven federal lawsuits were issued this week and a video leaked online showing the guards giving an intern a knuckle style chili with a side order of toe jam.

David Cooper, Robert Richardson, Emily Evans, Amber Swink, Jeffrey Day, James Howard, and Joseph Guglielmo all filed federal complainants against Plummer and the lockup.

I can testify to the misconduct by deputies. Montgomery County Sheriff's deputies aren't some of the most friendliest people I've been pulled over by.

Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey's Circus Over!

The circus of the stars. Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey circus ends. 

Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey's Circus is ending its run after 147 years.

The Greatest Show on Earth is ending. The historic American circus was very popular. It got a lot of flack after videos surfaced of mistreatment of wildlife began appearing on social media.

Kenneth Fled, the CEO of Feld Entertainment said that the final show will be in May.

The declining ticket sales were the reason. Of course, the decision to end its elephant act was also a factor according to Feld.

The circus began phasing out the elephant shows after animal rights groups continue to hammer on about the mistreatment.

I remember seeing the circus train pass through Dayton in 2011. It was a once in a lifetime to see the train pass through your community. At the time, I was trying to rekindle a relationship with a woman who was waste of my time.

I remember going to the circus in 1987 when I was young. Vaguely remembered it.was at the University of Dayton Arena.

City Bus Workers Could Shut Dayton Transit Down!

Greater Dayton RTA's motto: It's Time to Ride.

The Greater Dayton Regional Transit Authority covers the Dayton, Ohio and Montgomery County with a portion of the bus lines going into Greene County. It has 29 routes and also a mobility line for seniors and special need riders. The RTA also has overhead trolleys. The trolleybuses cover a portion of the city and inner suburbs.

Dayton is the smallest city in the United States to still have overhead electric trolleys. Other cities include Philadelphia, San Francisco, Seattle, and Boston. These cities have populations with over 500,000 residents.

In a city with 139,000 residents, the RTA is necessary for the 30,000 riders who use the public transit.

The RTA is facing a crisis within its ranks. The Amalgamated Transit Union Local 1385 is getting tired of dealing with the leadership's ineptness. Mark Doughney, the president of the RTA is facing calls for resignation after many drivers complained that the new rules imposed on drivers limit their break periods, their restroom breaks and time off.

Many of the drivers voiced frustration with the way RTA is working them. They now operate from 4:15 am on opening routes to nearly 2:30 am.

Now at the stroke of midnight, the city bus drivers will end their routes and walk off the job.

Dayton's mayor Nan Whaley and city's commissioners are pleading for RTA and the union to work out the differences for the sake of the community.

A strike could make life difficult for riders who need to get to work, school, or shopping districts.

A strike could cost RTA millions of dollars.

A strike could spell doom for union workers because if Republicans pass a NO STRIKE CLAUSE state law when it comes to public sector work, the RTA drivers could be fired out the cannon.

Ohio is a "right to work" state. The worker's unions across the country are being weakened by Republicans. They feel confident that they could destroy the unions and make employers hire people at lower wages and longer hours.

Ohio governor John Kasich and the federal government might get involved in this situation.

Some unfortunate facts about the RTA.

Many of the residents in this community support the fuhrer Donald J. Trump. So it won't be any surprise that some online white extremists are seething with glee watching others suffer. Most of the people who comment about the RTA often push racial stereotypes about the riders and the bus lines.

Many of them are assuming that many of the bus riders are geekers and druggies. Some openly call the workers, the riders and the people who support the RTA a bunch of NIGGERS or NIGGER-LOVERS. Some even resort to the childish name calling supporters LIBTARDS.

The junk food media here often sensationalize stories for ratings. I don't watch the news anymore because they allow Trump to win.

Beavercreek, Ohio a city that is located six miles from Dayton was a vocal opposition to the RTA and Greene County Area Transit Service having routes serve the Mall at Fairfield Commons.

The U.S. Department of Justice and Transportation warned Beavercreek that if they continue to deny bus service to the community they could lose funding for the city. Once the fuhrer Trump takes over, Beavercreek city leaders could ask for Rep. Mike Turner (R-OH) and Sen. Rob Portman (R-OH) to ask the DOJ to relinquish their recommendations. And Beavercreek could reinstate their public transportation ban.

RTA has wasted money big time on hydro-buses that hardly run, trolleybuses that don't often run and passing the expense onto the riders.  I live in the rust belt city of Dayton. The city has trolley lines that are hardly used. I mean there is probably 100 miles of trolley line in the city and only 45 miles of the lines are used. The city fare is $1.75 for an adult. You can get a transfer for $.25 and it's good for a connecting trip for up to 1 hour and 30 minutes.

It's one of the highest fares in the state.

Compare that to larger Columbus with 80 routes and Cincinnati with 50 routes. You are paying up to $35 a week on public transit. The average bus pass for a month is $95.

Dayton has only 29 routes.

Routes 3,4,5,7 and 8 are the bus lines that have trolleybus service. Route 1 and 2 have trolleybus service on limited service.

Since 2013, RTA returned bus service to the Dayton International Airport. For 15 years the bus never went to the airport. You had to have take a bus near the area and walk to the local shuttle buses that serve the airport when air travelers had to leave their vehicle overnight.

Route 1 and 16  are the only buses that serves Greene County. The bus has 90 minute commuters to Wright State University and the Mall at Fairfield Commons. In 2016, Route 16 was realigned to serve Costco Wholesale, Kroger Marketplace and Miami Valley Hospital South Campus.

The U.S. Department of Defense and the RTA worked out an agreement to have special buses serve the Wright Patterson Air Force Base in Montgomery and Greene County. The buses operate two times a day.

The RTA doesn't connect to Miami County, Warren County, Butler County, the remaining portions of Greene County and Clarke County.

The Southern Ohio Regional Transit Authority (Cincy Metro), Transit Authority of Northern Kentucky (TANK)  and Central Ohio Transit Authority (COTA) have buses that serve multiple counties, many business venues, their local airports and local attractions.

Dayton RTA has five transit stations. One that is located at the Westown shopping center. One that is located at the Eastown shopping center. One that is located in Trotwood which also serves at the Dayton Greyhound transit terminal. One located one mile from the Dayton mall. The final one is the downtown transit station which is located near the RTA headquarters.

The Dayton Mall has been under fire for banning the buses from the property. The only buses that serve the mall are routes that have very few riders. Route 23, 60 and 61 are crosstown buses that avoid downtown Dayton. The buses operate on a limited schedule and often are completed by 10pm.

Many of the county buses and crosstown Route 24 avoid the mall. They head to the transit hub or have a local stop about 1/2 mile from the mall.

Ohio State Route 741 known as Springboro Pike was reworked to have sidewalks. The speed limit was previously 45 mph. Now it's localized to 40 mph. They moved the pedestrian crosswalks to an area that is 1/2 mile from Ohio State Route 725. The Miami Township Police maintain a heavy presence around the mall. The Ohio State Patrol maintains traffic control on most roads around the mall.

Lyons Road where the South Transit Center is located is 1 mile from the Dayton Mall. The road has sidewalks and a bicycle lane. The speed limit around the area is 45 mph and the nearest light with a crosswalk is 1/4 mile from the transit center.

Dayton is still one of the most segregated cities in the United States.

Unrepentant Criminal Get 3 Nickels For Fatal Car Crash!

The unrepentant Kyndra Shackleford had a breakdown when the court handed her a lengthy bid in the iron college.
Be warned the videos shown are disturbing.

Well I don't watch the local news. But I happened to hear about the situation with the Dayton, Ohio woman who led the Montgomery County Sheriff and Huber Heights Police on a chase that led to a deadly encounter. The victim Marcus Harper was on his way home when Kyndra Shackleford was in a trick's vehicle she taken from a local gas station. The police gave pursuit which led to speeds ranging over 100 mph.

Shackleford blew through a light near the Hollywood Gaming racino and struck the vehicle that Marcus and passenger Loretta Creech were in. Marcus died on impact and Loretta was severely injured.

Ever since she was a juvie she had run-ins with the law. Before this event, she was the woman who fired shots in the air to provoke a former boyfriend. She was a troubled teen who could not find the help she needed. She was bipolar and a victim of abuse. It's not an excuse for the reckless behavior, but the thrill of the chase and the fear of being caught drove her to flee.

Shackleford was under the influence of alcohol at the time and she had felonies on the books.

Huber Heights Officer Mike Winterbotham was the officer who gave chase and radioed for assistance.

The court threw the book at her. She got 15 to LIFE in the iron college. With time served she could be out in 16.5 in the iron college.




The court ordered her to pay the restitution for the victims. She was fined $1,590 and is banned from driving for LIFE. If she is released to in-house via parole, if she is caught driving on the road, she could go back to the iron college to serve LIFE.

The Huber Heights Police, Montgomery County Sheriff and Dayton Police are not off the hook either. The officer's need to "stop a bad guy" when they take off in a vehicle is becoming a real danger to the community. They have to evaluate how to handle high speed pursuits.

Cop Walk In The Sam DuBose Murder Trial!

Cop walk in the Sam DuBose murder trial.

The mostly White jury and the Ohio judge declared a mistrial in the case of Ray Tensing, the former University of Cincinnati Police officer accused of murdering motorist Sam DuBose.

The jury was unable to reach a verdict for Tensing who was charged with voluntary manslaughter.

DuBose was being pulled over for missing a front plate. The incident was caught on body camera. It shows Tensing at point blank range shot DuBose in the face before the car accelerated and crashed.

Tensing tried to get his fellow officers to lie for him and he concocted this notion that "he feared for his life" when DuBose closed the door and accelerated the car. He tried to make DuBose's criminal past an issue. They tried to use his 13 children as an excuse for bad behavior.

The jury of 10 White people and two Blacks had a task of weighing whether the shooting was a justifiable use of force or Tensing feared for his life.

Cincinnati's mayor John Cranley knows the bubble is brewing. He is none to happy about the election. He is expecting the tension to increase knowing that Tensing is out on bail.

Now Republican prosecutor Joe Deters will now figure out if another trial could go forth. It would be highly unlikely Tensing could be convicted. If the jury actually convicted him, he would have 15 to LIFE in the iron college.

This incident keeps reminding me about how police officers are allowed to get away with murder.

They can lie about the incident, play the victim and make the victim the one on trial.

Of course, in 2001, Timothy Thomas was gunned down by Stephen Roach in the dark alleys of Cincinnati. Roach was spooked by Thomas running through the alleys. He shot him on sight.

It sparked a week of unrest n the city and a Black economic boycott.

Ohio Cop Who Pulled Over John Felton Is Rotten To The Core!

John Felton (right) in 2015. He exposed a dirty tactic that Dayton Police use for unjustified pulls overs.

Last year the city of Dayton, Ohio had to formally apologize to a Detroit area motorist after he was roused by an officer.

The Dayton Police chief Richard Biehl is probably looking forward to loading this guy in the cannon and firing him out of the tent. Randy Betsinger was the guy who caused a great deal of controversy.

He pulled over John Felton in August 2015. Felton who felt that the officer intentionally profiled him whipped out his camera and filmed the pull over.

Betsinger claimed that Felton failed to signal at 100 feet. Felton called the cop out for following him and the officer got hostile and threatened a ticket upon him if he didn't shut up.

"I saw you trailing me the whole time. I did signal! You just needed a reason to pull me over!"

Felton posted the video on social media and it went viral.

What got Betsinger in trouble was the words "direct eye contact" was reason for the pullover.

Well before that encounter, Betsinger was involved in an accident in the same area. He ended up crashing his police cruiser into a mail carrier's van.

Benjamin Jones brought a personal injury lawsuit against Betsinger and the Dayton Police.

The dash camera footage shown by the junk food media shows the officer's cruiser slamming into the back of the U.S. Postal van on May 2015. That would be one of the many mistakes Betsinger created in his years as a police officer. Jones is seeking a five figure sum for pain and suffering.

Betsinger was cited for the accident. Now he may be facing a lawsuit that could fire him out the cannon. The city of Dayton public relations have no comment on the matter.

Here's the videos.

Ray Tensing Wore Confederate Shirt When He Bucked Sam DuBose!

Killer wore Confederate shirt when he killed unarmed motorist. Ray Tensing is a former University of Cincinnati cop charged with murder of Sam DuBose.


Bombshell. Ray Tensing was wearing The Losing Side of The Civil War T-shirt under his police uniform. The fired University of Cincinnati cop is facing murder charges that could put his ass in the iron college for LIFE.

Tensing is innocent until proven guilty.

The killer wore this shirt when he fatally shot Sam DuBose after a traffic shot. The t-shirt was submitted by Cincinnati police investigator Jimmy Nghia Duc Pham.

The shirt had "Great Smoky Mountains and it was presented during the crime scene investigation.
This shirt was worn by ex-cop who bucked Sam DuBose.
Pham testified that investigators found a jar containing marijuana within the Honda Accord that DuBose was in. Tensing contends that he was being dragged by DuBose.

DuBose was unarmed at the time.

Tensing is trying the use-of-force excuse to justify the shooting. He said that he feared for his life.

More damning evidence came forth. Tensing was the leader of citations and arrest. Tensing had stopped more Black and Hispanic motorists and pedestrians than normal. About 75% of the stops were Black and 15% Hispanic.

Tensing claims that he's doing his job for public safety. But one is questioning why is his citations largely rounded towards Blacks.

Now you probably think like me. I bet you money, he'll get off. He will say that DuBose's history was reason. The law will use Jedi mind tricks to sway a jury into believing the cop had a benefit of the doubt.

The right isn't talking about this.

A Load Of Bullsh*t!


In the crucial swing state of Ohio, the Warren County Sheriff put the cuffs on James Pinell. This man is accused of dumping a load of shit on the grounds of the local Democratic Party office.

The manure happened around midnight on Saturday.

Just like in 2012, a volunteer found a pile of manure in front of the Warren County Democratic Party headquarters. The party prepared themselves this time around. They had surveillance cameras around the building. The suspect wasn't caught. It seems like he slipped up this time.

Pinell, a resident from Lebanon was charged with misdemeanor criminal mischief. He is to appear in court Thursday. He is innocent until proven guilty.

Pinell may be facing more than a load of shit. He might be sentenced to pickup the manure at county farm or picking up the trash off the side of Interstate 71 or 75.

The sheriff noticed the pile of manure around 8pm Saturday.

The local GOP offered to clean up the mess. They were offended by the actions of Pinell and said that these actions were deplorable.
This asshole dropped a load in 2012.
Donald Trump has got at least a 40% chance of winning the election. Hillary Clinton has a 60% chance at winning the election.

The Comey letter was considered an "October Surprise". One could hope that this cloud of kookspiracy and ignorance will die down. James Comey gave Trump a breathe of life when he said that he is revisiting the email server.

Happy Halloween. Be safe and drink (or eat candy) responsibly.

Michael Moore Takes You To Trumpland!

Michael Moore released documentary focusing on the real reasons to why Americans support Trump.

Filmmaker and activist Michael Moore pulled an ace in the hole.

He released a movie over the week called Michael Moore in Trumpland and it's winning praise for its approach. Moore is not shy about bringing controversy to the table. He is famous for taking on the gun lobby, George W. Bush and the American health systems in many of his documentaries and movies.

He's been actively trolling against both Trump and Clinton for being the "blah and yuck" of politics.

He believes that Clinton is the only choice but has his fear that Rust Belt America would reject that for a bombastic agitator who captured the Republican nomination by just being "Joe Smole".

He believes the junk food media has the stirred the beehive. The Trump supporters aren't just wackos.

He believes that Trump's chances at winning are fair. Given the conditions of how everything is "corrupted" by the likes of a 24/7 media, he wouldn't be surprised if the big "fuck you" is a Donald Trump presidency.
Conservatives believe that Michael Moore may help Trump win.
The film's premiere, just 11 days after the film was shot, was on October 18, 2016 at the IFC Center in New York City, where tickets for the 400 seat venue were given out to the public for free. The premiere was followed by a Q&A with Moore.

General showings around the United States started October 19, with the announcement of digital downloads available in the near future. Moore had announced the event on Twitter.

The film is based on a one-person show that Moore originally wanted to perform in Midland Theatre in Newark, Ohio on October 7, but management of the Midland Theatre chose not to go forward on a rental contract.

He eventually held the show at the Murphy Theatre in Wilmington, Ohio, with the movie based on a recording of that performance over two nights in October.

Mind you that Wilmington, Ohio is the hub for ABX air freight. The city was in the news for being one of the hardest hit communities in the Cincinnati/Dayton metroplex. The DHL national hub relocated into Kentucky (via the suburbs of Cincinnati) for a smaller venue. It displaced hundreds of workers.

Ah Sh*t, You Really Can't Fix Stupid! [NSFW]


Sonic Restaurants were none too happy about this "you can't fix stupid" moment. The Oklahoma City-based restaurant corporation operates over 3,500 restaurants in 43 states.

In Middletown, Ohio, a young woman is fired out the cannon after the city health inspector saw a disturbing post on social media. A woman and her crew posted on social media of the employee inside an ice machine. 

The behavior of this employee was pretty stupid. She was smiling and acting pretty. 

The manager self-reported the incident on Monday. 

Carla Ealy of the Middletown city health department said that the actions of this employee is ridiculous and unacceptable.

Before the health department could contact Sonic, the Middletown manager promptly fired the employee out the cannon and disciplined the employees who took the picture.

Kristin Davis, director of communications for Sonic said all workers will be retrained and the facility will be monitored for progress.

The drive-in's management retrained all employees on the proper handling of ice and equipment use as this type of behavior is “unacceptable” and against company policy, Davis said.

Ealy said the incident occurred sometime Friday. Ealy said the goal of the Health Department is to follow up on potential health violations within three days of notification.

She inspected the ice machine on Tuesday and determined it was clean and operating appropriately.

Still, Ealy said, the actions of the employee "concern" her, and she's worried about the confidence of Sonic patrons. On one Facebook post about the incident, there were 56 comments, mostly negative, and the photo had been shared 238 times.

Ohio Girl's Death By Car Brings Attention To Busy Road!

Girl hit by car bring residents to grief.
In the rust belt city of Dayton, Ohio, a young 11 year old girl was struck by a car on Ohio State Route 48 known locally as Main Street. She was dragged 100 feet and landed on the ground not moving. The residents immediately called for assistance and the Dayton Police and Emergency Response came to aid the girl. She was taken to a local hospital where tonight the junk food media confirms that she passed away.

This incident happened around Wednesday and it closed the road for hours.

Makyla White was heading to People's Market to get some snacks with her family. As she was crossing the street, a vehicle comes out of nowhere and struck her.

The driver was struck with grief and despair. The driver didn't see her dart in the street.

Makyla was not in a proper crosswalk. The area is slightly lighted. It's a four lane road without any turn lanes. There are two traffic lights between the store. The speed limit on the road is 35 mph.

The crosswalks were available.

The witnesses claim that the driver was distracted or driving at an excessive speed. Many fault the girl for not being in the proper crosswalk. The Dayton Police are investigating the incident. The police will present any evidence to the prosecutor if charges are merited.

The city and the police show concern for a deterrent that once remedied a problem. The city was using traffic control devices like speed and red light cameras.

The city of Dayton and many other jurisdiction were brutally fighting the state of Ohio to keep the red light and speed cameras on. They believed the cameras deterred traffic violations.

The state of Ohio passed legislation to eliminate the cameras. The cameras can only used in school and construction zones. An officer must be present to issue a citation. The city of Dayton didn't want to waste resources to have a cop sit at every intersection with a traffic camera.

The city lost state funds because of its disregard for the state law. Dayton and many other cities must reimburse the people who were cited since the law was enacted.

Dayton has disabled the cameras and vow to find loopholes.

Nonetheless, the residents are mourning the loss of this young girl.

The police say that speeding and illegal activities plague Main Street.

I have suggestions for Main Street. Lower the speed limit to 25 mph between Hillcrest and Great Miami Boulevard. Make Main Street a two lane road with bicycle lanes.

Main Street in Dayton is notorious for speeding, jaywalking, littering, prostitution and illegal activities like drug trafficking.

Ohio State Route 48 is an 84 mile road starts from the census-designated community Goshen and ends near the village of Houston. It passes through Dayton, Englewood, Covington, Lebanon and Kettering.

ITT Technical Institute Closes Up Shop!

The end of  ITT Tech. 

The college world is rocked by the federal government's sanctions of one of the oldest for-profit trade schools. The ITT Technical Institute is closing all its locations including the one in my community of Dayton, Ohio.

With approximately 130 campuses in 38 states of the United States, this bit of news hurts the people who enrolled for this session. In August, the company was barred from enrolling new students who use government loans and has chosen to cease enrolling any new students at all.

ITT Tech announced that it was immediately ceasing operations and closing all of its campuses.

In 2014, Time magazine ranked ITT Technical Institute No. 2 on its list of "The 5 Colleges That Leave the Most Students Crippled By Debt". Among ITT Tech graduates with loans due in 2011, 22% had defaulted by 2014. According to the Time magazine report, ITT Tech's default rate ranked second; the for-profit University of Phoenix had a lower default rate by percentage (19% at Phoenix versus ITT Tech's 22%), but the total number of students in default from Phoenix was much higher (45,123 Phoenix students versus 11,260 ITT Tech students).

According to the College Scorecard, as of March 2016, 39% of ITT Tech graduates are paying off their debt, compared to the national average of 66% among all schools nationwide.

This percentage represents the number of graduates who were able to repay at least $1 in student loan debt in the three years after their graduation.

The U.S. Department of Education banned ITT Tech from enrolling students who receive federal aid and at the same time doubled the surety funds that ITT Tech was required to have, and to produce those funds within 30 days. Stock markets reacted with a punishing 35% drop which triggered a halt in trading, raising concerns about whether ITT Educational would be able to survive this latest decision

Carousel Beauty College also shut its doors in the Dayton, Ohio area. The five locations are gone.

This came without any warning as well. Many students attending the Dayton-based hair school are without a place.

The for-profit schools are on the way out.

Brock Turner Enrolled In Offender U!

Convicted rapist isn't truly free. He will have to register in Offender U for the rest of his life.

Brock Turner, the former Stanford University swimmer is out of the California lockup where he was spending three month bid in. He's heading back to Ohio to spend the rest of his life in hiding. He will now have to register in Offender U for the rest of his life.

Turner out on bail dodged the cameras and got into his attorney's vehicle. One of America's most hated men is now free to live his life. He will live his life under a watchful eye though.

Most Americans believed his privileged life got him off easy. If he was a person of color, they would lock the individuals up for the rest of their lives.

His sentence was criticized by the junk food media for being too damn light. The judge who handed Turner his fate faced harsh criticism. This became a national outcry over how the justice system treats sexual assault.

Turner who is 21 years old heads to his folks home in Dayton, Ohio. He will be heading to the local probation office to register his life to the state. Wherever he goes, that label will follow him.

State judge Aaron Persky faces the ire of voters. They want his ass gone. He fired himself out the cannon recently. Persky will not do criminal trials anymore. He will deal with traffic violations for the time being.

The judge said that Turner's actions left a "severe impact" on a promising future. That outraged the victim. Sexual assault victims often are shamed for the way they dress, the way they act around people and the actions they do while under the influence of alcohol.

Most rape victims never report to the law out of fear.

Reminder: The junk food media loves "hot teacher" stories. Some educators are sexually assaulting their students. Some of these educators are hot attractive white women. I have yet to see a "hot teacher" get a lengthy sentence for having a sexual encounter with a twelve year old child.

This needs to change.

Anyone accused of having rape a person should be charged with a crime. They should be convicted in a court of law. They are innocent until proven guilty of course. The court of public opinion shouldn't matter. The judge, prosecutor and jury are the things that matter.

RAPE IS RAPE.

CONSENT DOESN'T MEAN HAVE YOUR WAY WITH THE VICTIM.

Dayton Reaches A Milestone: 40 Homicides!

Tashawna Gaines was the victim of a shooting in Dayton, Ohio.

The rust belt city of Dayton, Ohio had over 40 homicides this year. The most recent shootings this week has police chief Richard Biehl in the crosshairs.

Police were called to Gettysburg Avenue after they found a car riddled with bullets. A man and woman were brutally gunned down. We don't know if they survived that shooting. Later that night, they found a young woman shot in the back at the DeSoto Bass housing complex.

One of the victims names was released to the junk food media. Her name was Tashawna Gaines of Dayton. I quickly checked Facebook and found her profile.

Even in my own neighborhood, I heard seven rounds popped off. Fortunately no one was injured.

The Dayton Police and Montgomery County Sheriff's Department are dealing with the Long Hot Summer. Usually in urban communities, gun violence spike up during the summer.

The Dayton Daily News released the last shootings this month alone.

  • Tuesday, Aug. 16: Fatal shooting around 1:30 p.m. in the 5900 block of West Third Street. Victim ID’d as D’Juan Norvell, 32, of Dayton.
  • Saturday, Aug. 13: Shooting around 6 p.m. in the 2200 block of the 2200 block of Rustic Road in Dayton. Victim seriously hurt, taken to Miami Valley Hospital.
  • Saturday, Aug. 13: Shooting around 3 a.m. in the 2100 block of Edwin C. Moses Boulevard in Dayton. Victim taken to MVH.
  • Friday, Aug. 12: Shooting late Friday, just before midnight in the Kilmer Street. Woman struck by stray bullet, taken to MVH.
  • Friday, Aug. 12: Fatal shooting around 11 p.m. on Republic Drive in Harrison Twp. Victim ID’d as Michael Binegar, 36, of Dayton.
  • Friday, Aug. 12: Fatal shooting around 1:45 p.m. in the 1900 block of Auburn Avenue in Dayton. Victim ID’d as Dillon Ward, 25, of Dayton.

I assure you that at least 2,300 people are killed a day by gun violence. That's about 56 people a day have been a victim of gun violence.

Now you know that conservatives are so concerned about gun violence in the Black community.

I heard conservatives bring up "what about Black on Black crime" time and time again.

They play the role of "concern troll" when it comes to addressing Black violence. Since the rise of Black Lives Matter, conservatives have tried to dismiss the group as anti-cop and anti-White.

The group is pressing for police reform and accountability for officers who use deadly force in situations that didn't merit it. The group is concern about intraracial violence. Again, most of the victims of gun violence know the shooter.

These incidents have sparked discussion but it hasn't got the needle moving in Congress.

Congress won't pass a gun control law. They believe that it impedes on the Second Amendment.

Mind you Ohio and 30 other states have open carry laws. So it's perfectly legal to have a firearm in public. But if you use it in malicious ways, you forfeit your rights as a lawful citizen.

Still, if a Black man was walking in a White neighborhood with a firearm, the law will immediately arrive with guns drawn ordering the man to get on the ground or they'll shoot.

Republicans and some Democrats in particular are devoted to seeing Black genocide. They won't pass a simple background check. They won't hold straw sellers and buyers accountable for gun violence.

The families of gun crime victims can't sue the gun manufactures because the laws don't hold them responsible. The family of Jessica Ghawi were forced to pay the gun manufacture after they loss their case against the company that sold the firearm to the Aurora Colorado terrorist.

They want to keep White conservative men happy by allowing these loose restrictions on gun buys.

They want to punish Blacks, Hispanics, and Muslims with death if we carry firearms in public.

If any of these individuals pose with firearms on social media, we're regarded as liberals, thugs, illegals and terrorists.

I am done sending my condolences to the families of gun violence victims.

What is needed is accountability. The shooter needs to be held accountable for the actions. No doubt.

But what we need is a Congress who can get things done. We need to hold Republicans and Democrats accountable for their inept actions.

If you support allowing firearms in the hands of terrorists, gang members, human traffickers, those with mental issues and corrupt police officers, you're likely a Donald Trump and Mike Pence supporter.

Hara Arena Closed!

Hara Arena, Dayton's oldest public venue closes. 

No where else but Hara!

Dayton iconic venue the Hara Arena and Exhibition Center is closing. It will hold its last event on August 27 before it closes.

The Hamvention, a gathering amateur ham radio operators often hold their events at the facility. The news is devastating to the community. The city of Trotwood is a "ghost town".

Bill Goodman's Gun and Rifle Show, the City's Flea Market, WWE Wrestling, the Dayton Demonz, The Annual Bride Show and high school proms were often held at the Hara Arena.

Not to mention rock shows, hip-hop concerts and monster truck rallies were held at the event.

According to the local news agitators, the venue's internal legal fight couldn't be solved.

The Wamplers are feuding with one another over the direction of the depleted complex. When you pass by it, it looks so run down and it was in need of repairs.

Trotwood hopes to score the Montgomery County Fairgrounds near the property. Mind you that Dayton was hoping to convert the current venue into a mix-used lifestyle center.

Kind of reminds me of the failed Ballpark Village.

Sad days are ahead in Dayton, Ohio.

Matter of fact, Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump were supposed to have their first debate at the Wright State University's Nutter Center. The event was canceled and it cost Dayton badly.

They claimed that event would cost $8 - 10 million. Wright State University will be passed on when 2020 comes.

Dayton a rust belt city with 137,000 residents A city that sits within 70 miles of Columbus, 90 miles of Indianapolis and 60 miles of Cincinnati. Dayton is a city that has no value whatsoever.

Missing Ohio Woman Is The Body In The Woods!

Ohio woman's body was found in the woods.

The young woman who was reported missing for nearly a year was found on a farm.

Now the Montgomery County bag 'em ups confirms that the body of Lindsay Bogan was found.

Tragic news for a search of a woman the family was hoping to find alive.

Lindsay was unfortunately a victim of the streets. She was addicted to heroin and was selling her body for the boy. Women of the stroll are usually addicted to the boy.

She was a  daughter, mother and a sister. She will be missed by many. This could be the act of a possible serial killer in our community. Her boyfriend (or pimp) is currently in the iron college for promoting prostitution and drug charges. He is the person of interest in the disappearance.
Eric Sexton was pimping Lindsay. He may have something to do with her disappearance.
He claims that he saw Lindsay jump into a trick's car and never came home.

Eric Sexton, a 50 year old man who may have fathered her child. Sexton is in the iron college for 15 years on the pimp game. He will be enrolling in the Offender's U after he is released.

Middletown Police, the Butler County Sheriff along with the FBI will now try to figure out if Lindsay was killed before her body dropped off rural Madison Township.

The Greene County sheriff and Montgomery County bag 'em ups are trying to find the identity of a woman whose remains were found in Spring Valley.

At first they believed that it was Lindsay, but it turned out inconclusive.

Lindsay had ties to Dayton, Ohio. She grew up in Moraine.

World News Today sends our condolences to the family of Lindsay Bogan. We hope that the law will catch the individual who murdered this beautiful woman.

Ohio Woman Kills Boyfriend On His Birthday!

Dayton man shot to death on his birthday, woman arrested
Dayton woman murdered her boyfriend on his birthday.

There was a murder in my community today. The long hot summer once again in Dayton, Ohio.

The city police reports a record month in gun violence in one single month. This incident has close ties to me. I know the shooter. I don't know her personally, but I went to high school with the suspect.

Dayton man shot to death on his birthday, woman arrestedThis was a domestic violence incident. The woman killed her boyfriend on his birthday.

The Dayton Police quickly arrested the woman and booked her on capital murder charges. She will face a judge in the coming days.

Nina Davis used to go my high school back in the late 1990s. Now this woman is the suspect in a fatal homicide in Dayton, Ohio. She murdered 37-year old Travis Smith in their home.

The incident happened on Patton Avenue.

Davis confessed to the crime saying that she and argument before the shooting.

Davis did it in front of her children.

Some cold hearted nonsense in my city.

World News Today send our condolences to the family of Travis Smith.

Davis is innocent until guilty. The murder charge alone will put her in the iron college for LIFE. If the prosecutors decide on more than LIFE, it could be the death card. If this was an act of self-defense, Davis would have to prove that the victim was abusive towards her and the family.

George Voinovich Passed Away!

George Voinovich the former U.S. senator and governor from Ohio passed away in Cleveland.

Former U.S. senator and governor of Ohio George Voinovich passed away today. His family confirmed that the former lawmaker died peacefully in his sleep.

He died a few weeks shy of his 80th birthday.

Voinovich was one of the most popular lawmakers in the state. He was a politically moderate at best.

He was then the mayor of Cleveland, Ohio. Probably one of the last Republican mayors of the city.

Voinovich served two terms as Ohio Governor in the 1990s and two terms in the U.S. Senate, capping a political career that started in 1963 and led him to the Cleveland mayor's office on his way to the governor's office and then Washington. He was 79.

Voinovich earned a reputation as a tightwad during his years in office, especially as governor from 1991 to 1999.
Voinovich with his predecessor Rob Portman. Portman is the current U.S. Senator for Ohio.
He shined his own shoes, bought his clothes on sale, and when he learned public money was used to buy snacks served on state airplanes, he banned the snacks. He also sold one of the state's airplanes.

He was slated to be a delegate for the Republican National Convention in the city.

His predecessor is Rob Portman, the former Bush official who was also a U.S. representative from Cincinnati.

Right now, Sen. Rob Portman (R-OH) and former Ohio governor Ted Strickland both are facing off for the U.S. senate race for the state. Ohio's leans determine who may become the next President of the United States.

Of course, Voinovich was mentioned by the two in their prayers to his family.

Bill Clinton, George W. Bush and Barack Obama won the state and the presidency.

Ohio and Florida are the most hotly contested races for 2016. Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton is hoping to win these states. The states are the key to winning the presidency.

Portman is also facing a tougher race also. But the state's leanings may be in his favor. Strickland is not getting name recognition and his term as governor was mirrored in failure. He's got an uphill battle to win this.

OHIO in the U.S. Senate race is LEANING REPUBLICAN.

World News Today send our condolences to the family of George Voinovich. This the last speech Voinovich given before he passed away.

Privileged White Rape Suspect's Punishment Sparks Fury!

Rape suspect gets light sentence and the public is outraged.

There's controversy over the sentencing of an ex-Stanford swimmer who was found guilty of sexual assault. An Ohio man was sentenced in a California court for the charges. The charges were considered lenient by many in the junk food media.

Brock Turner is right now awaiting sentencing. He was sentenced to six months in the iron college, ten years of in-house and he will have to register as a TIER III for the rest of his life.

Turner was caught raping a woman who was intoxicated and some people noticed him getting it on behind a dumpster. When two men saw him, he took off. The woman was unconscious and partly clothed. The men caught Turner and held him until the law came.

Turner is appealing the decision. In the meantime, he is willing to serve his sentence at home.

Here's where the outrage begins. He is a privileged White man who got away with a very serious crime. Now he, his father and the judge are getting a slew of criticism and death threats.

And it's greatly deserved. There is a recall effort to take the judge out of power. He gave the sentence.

His father is facing flack for complaining about the sentence. He said that his son going to jail ruined his life for a mere "20 minutes of action".

The judge Aaron Persky handed Turner the lightest sentence ever imaginable. In the sentencing the judge said, "A prison sentence would have a severe impact on him. I think he will not be a danger to others."

The judge is an alumnus of Stanford University and that's giving the notion that it was I'll scratch your back, If you scratch mine.

Turner claims that the act was consensual but the victim denies that and feels that the judge ruined her life. She wrote a rebuttal saying that she can't live a normal life because of Turner. She gave up the booze and now hangs around her mom's home fearing the future.

Turner's weak charge brings up charges of racial injustice.

A former #BlackLivesMatter activist was sentenced to the iron college for four years for an alleged lynching charge. She was interfering with Pasadena Police as they were taking a suspect into custody and she got into a verbal confrontation with the law. She made a threat to the police and they arrested her for the crime. She was just found guilty on the charge. Richards is appealing the decision.

Jasmine Abdullah Richards was spared a four year bid. Many in the junk food media were criticizing the sentence because they felt that she was getting shafted by an obscure California law.
