Like I said I dont know if thats completely true but Cleveland does have the 2nd most missing people of any city in America (thousands), and you always hear stories of people dumping bodies into the river... Kind of a scary thought.

So if thats true at all then Cleveland probably has a lot more homicides than the records say. Im just going to hope that its not true since we already have such a high murder rate in the city.

That's what I'm saying. If authorities really wanted to know how many people are murdered, they would dig into missing persons files. But of course cities don't go looking for murders, and often dog a few floaters and whodunits to keep the numbers down. I personally know a fella who was murdered and never made the list of homicide victims the Cincinnati Enquirer prints every January.

Well Police shoot and kill another suspect. He tried to rob an informant. Informant stated he was a police and the guy pointed a gun at the officer.

Snitching gets more people killed than most of the things people think folks get killed over. Being affiliated with the police as a civilian is almost a death sentence nowadays.

Its sad it has to be like that though, but I dont really think any of the people involved in that way are innocent. Not the informants or the cops or the people involved in the crimes. Snitching never really went well with people. Where I was growing up I saw some bad things happen to snitches. It seems even worse now.

So thats one more homicide for Cleveland? than unofficial count is 15 right now.

I was just about to post that. There were two teenage boys killed overnight in Cleveland. One was on the Eastside another on the SouthEast side. I think that brings the homicide count up to 17.

Wow, those kids were killed within a half hour of each other. I was reading the comments from the article posted above and this one stuck out to me:

You know when its going to stop? When poor people stop having babies and finish school. There are generations of children raising children and they just don't have the skills neccesary to teach their kids what they need to know. This is not a socialist society, its not what america is built on have some personal accountability.

Being poor and having children have nothing to do with murders that are happening. True crime does happen mostly in poor neighborhoods, but even a poor person without children can be murdered as well as someone who is wealthy. It's not even warm out yet, I can't imagine how things will be once the summer months roll around. I just hope it won't be as bad as it was last year.

Let me also clear something up. I dont like talking bad about people but... 80% of the people who post on Cleveland.com are complete retards. I have lost count of how many stupid comments i have read on Cleveland.com. I have no idea whats wrong with the people on there. I cant tell if the people are trying to be funny or if they are actually serious. They say many racist things on there among a lot of other types of insults to every person other than themselves. Half of the people who post on there dont even live in Clevealnd and constantly bash the city and the people in it. They are a joke.

RIP to any person that has ever died in Cleveland.

City-data.com comments are nothing compared to Cleveland.com comments lol.

If you have been on there you would know that every single bad thing that happens the people on there always say the same thing. Like they sit there and wait for something else bad to happen to they can talk bad and racist about it. A huge group of very immature people. Of course theres some good people on there who have sense but they have to defend things and keep the peace on every new news thread.
