Fun Times in Cleveland... CLEVELAND, OH (WOIO) - Friday night was busy for Cleveland police, who were called to multiple locations for shootings on the city's east side. Officers report that five people were injured during a shooting at The Agora, a well-known music venue at 5400 Euclid Ave. Not too far from The Agora, at E. 55th and Payne Avenue, three other people were shot, including two men and one woman. Those are two of the six separate shootings that took place Friday night. One of them involved a woman who was fatally shot multiple times on E. 117th and Sellers. Three other shootings include a 24-year-old man shot in the back at 12309 Phillips Ave.; a man shot multiple times at E. 30th and Superior Ave.; and a man shot at E.64th and St. Clair Avenue. The 117th and Sellers incident was the only fatal. The conditions of those involved in the other five incidents are unknown at this time. The Republican National Convention begins Monday in Cleveland. http://www.cleveland19.com/story/3245985...-at-music-venue I really like how they ended the report with a reference to the RNC.

There will be no outrage and probably most will just ignore these shootings.

I am so incredibly saddened that so many people seem completely at peace with murdering other people. What is wrong with these people? What makes someone say, "Gee, I think I'll go murder people in cold blood tonight"?
God please help us. We certainly cannot help ourselves.
Micah 6:8; He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God.

2-year-old girl shot on Cleveland's East Side identifiedPrint Email Chanda Neely, cleveland.com By Chanda Neely, cleveland.com Email the author | Follow on Twitter on July 17, 2016 at 1:50 PM, updated July 17, 2016 at 2:02 PM alayabrown.jpg  CLEVELAND, Ohio — A 2-year-old girl shot in the head and arm outside her East Side home Friday continues to fight for her life, the girl's uncle said Sunday. Alaya Brown was in her 21-year-old mother's arms outside the family's home in the 4100 block of East 146th Street when a gunman opened fire, the uncle said. Alaya underwent brain surgery Friday at University Hospitals Rainbow Babies and Children's Hospital, where she remains in critical condition in the pediatric intensive care unit. "She's fighting for her life," the uncle said. "We're distraught. Most of us are at a loss for words. It was just so sudden and unexpected." Alaya raised her arm in self-defense, her uncle said. The bullet first went through her arm, slowing it down before it hit her in the head. The bullet cracked Alaya's skull. The right side of her brain is dead, and she is blind in one eye, he said. "She was playing; her mom was holding her," the uncle said. "We're just hurt that this happened." The gunman, who was driving a silver Toyota Camry, was talking to Alaya's mother for several minutes before the shooting, the uncle said. Another car drove up, and there may have been words exchanged because the car couldn't pass by, he said. Both cars started to drive away, and the gunman started shooting. Alaya's uncle said the man in the Camry was aiming directly at his sister and niece. "He deliberately, purposely and intentionally shot them," the uncle said. "I don't know why, but I know he did." The uncle said he doesn't know the gunman, but he has seen him around the neighborhood. A bullet grazed Alaya's mother in the arm, and the gunman fled in the Camry, the uncle said. The shooting happened around 7 p.m., police said. There have been no arrests. Alaya was born premature and has battled epilepsy and diabetes for her entire short life, family members said. She had trouble walking and talking, and seizures before the shooting. "We are just taking it hour-by-hour, day-by-day," the uncle said. "Please pray for my niece and my family." http://www.cleveland.com/metro/index.ssf/2016/07/2-year-old_girl_shot_outside_c.html

There is a ton of outrage when cops shoot armed black people, but those very same people don't give a damn about a poor, innocent girl being shot. Hypocrites. You are going to lose my--and others like me---support.

i swear I posted that people were protesting the shooting here in east Cleveland
But I get it. Had to act like that post didn't even exist.
That you're threatening "support" (lmfao) is ridiculous. All that tells me is that we didn't have your "support" to begin with.
Whatever. Continue your pointless grand standing.

Look man...........you guys are wrong about this. I haven't heard any outrage from you, CHS, Turk, Lurker, etc. You are preaching hate and choosing sides. I blast 40 and the other blanks for being on the other side.
I have supported minorities for almost my entire life. But, you guys are becoming the same as those who have hated you for so long.
Little bro............this crap has to stop!!! I bought another gun and a ton of ammo today. I hope it doesn't come to that, but right now, it's not looking good. Neither side wants to work together. All I know is if you come for me---I'll have something for your ass.

The only reason you could buy that gun and ammo is because it is your Constitutional Right to do so and all the while you are calling people names in the other thread for defending their Constitutional Rights! Hypocrite much?

Your city is probably going to be one of the cities where violence breaks out.
Have a shotgun at home. Then buy a smaller handgun that you can shoot one-handed and on the move if the situation dictates it.
But yeah..........protect yourself.

You just don't get what you are saying. You arm yourself to the teeth while trying to redefine the Constitutional Rights of the rest of us! You claim those who defend their Rights are causing a split in society, are looking for trouble, and are calling for violence but allow yourself those very Rights. We the law abiding will not cause or support violence! Hypocrite much he asks again?

I get what I am saying. Your hateful soul can't accept it.
First off........I wouldn't go anywhere near the RNC. It's too volatile of a situation right now. Too much hate going on and tempers are flaring. Too many guns will be there and too many passionate people who only see their side.
I'll stay at home where I can protect my constitutional rights w/some semblance of sanity.

Why do you want to limit the rest of us from exercising those same Rights? I think it is because you think yourself better than the rest of us simple folk.

He understands that there is plenty of human life on this planet but there are few places where Human existence is better than America with her Constitution. So stop insulting all those who have given their lives in her defense!

If Americans didn't defend their damn 2nd Amendment to the point it's laughable, then every dumbass crackpot wouldn't have such easy access to weapons capable of killing lots of people at once.
Don't wanna sound critical about what you people do south of the border, but I am glad Canada has the no-handgun law, doesn't have gun shows where people can buy guns on a whim, and doesn't have politicians bought by the NRA.
In some ways we two countries are similar, but we rarely have the mass killings that you guys are experiencing so routinely these days.
If I were a praying nan is pray for America right now. So much senseless killing.

The Right to Bear Arms: written what, 200 years ago?
Feel free to amend the Constitution every couple hundred years or so, as situations dictate.
