Re: “The Internet is Now Raising Money for Charles Ramsey”
I heard about Mr. Cordero. I also heard that he didn't speak any English so therefore he wasn't able to be interviewed. I don't have an opinion on the right or wrongness of this but you and I both know that the news media loves a human interest story. And Mr. Ramsey is a walking human interest story - with his less than perfect English and diction (not meant as a slight towards him). He was the one they could put a microphone in front of his face and he was the one who was able to give a riveting description of what happened. If Mr. Cordero desires to be recognized for his part in the rescue, he or an English-speaking family member needs to come forward. I'm not saying it's right, I'm just saying that's how the media game is played. And I don't really think Mr. Ramsey desires all the attention that's being put on him. I saw an interview he did with CNN and you could tell that he was very uncomfortable and probably now only wants to be left alone. It's really sickening how people are making fun of him, his speech pattern and his bad teeth as if that's required for helping someone escape a 10 year torture chamber. With the internet we have become fools and uncaring idots.
Re: “Charles Ramsey Has Been Songified”
Auto-tuning is awesome. My favorites have to be when they auto-tune the news, or the old "I'm backin up, backin up, backin up, backin up, 'cause my daddy taught me good" song
Re: “The Internet is Now Raising Money for Charles Ramsey”
If all the money goes to the victims, then I don't see why donating would be a bad thing. In that scenario though, why not just set up a fund in the names of the victims?
Re: “St. Ignatius Alum Derek Dietrich to Make MLB Debut”
Is it just me, or does he look a lot like Sammy Sosa? Well, good for him, and glad he made it to the bigs. Keep representing the CLE!
Re: “Impromptu Vigil Brings Seymour Community Together”
"What am I going to do to try to improve this community?"
That should be everyone's rallying cry since we're all in this together. Unfortunately, many people instead try to see what they can get out of the community, while putting nothing back into it. You get out of the community what you put into it.
Re: “Marcia Fudge Likes Jesse Jackson Jr.'s Karaoke Skills”
The reason why everyone loved the karaoke nights so much was because the campaign of Jesse Jackson Jr. probably picked up the tab at the end of the night!
Re: “Here's a Funny Quote from Charles Ramsey”
Hopefully he uses his new-found fame to bring some comfort or peace to the families of the victims, and to remind people to always be careful.
Re: “The Long History of Ariel Castro, Cleveland Kidnapper and Monster”
Castro admitted, in his recently uncovered letter, that he had a sex addiction. I now wonder if he raped any of his daughters or sons and if he actually fathered any of his own grandchildren. Especially now, knowing that one of his daughters tried to kill her own young child.
I am also horrified by the fact that Castro served no time for nearly killing his ex-wife who is now deceased. Also, if Fernando Colon's story is true, that years ago he tried and failed to lead the FBI to Castro, heads should roll at the FBI.
This is all so sickening. Castro obviously had no value or respect for women and for years was allowed to leave a trail of horrible violence against girls and women. We as a society must do better to protect one another, especially our women and children.
Re: “McDonald's Will Be in Touch with Charles Ramsey”
Wasn't the Ariel Castro also at McDonald's when he left the girls alone and was found with his brother?

Re: “Transgendered Woman Murdered, Online Commenters Take PD to Task”
Helen - that is a dreadfully ignorant thing to say. I am a transgender individual. I did not decide to be a transgender individual, I discovered that I was one. However many "gay male friends" you have had throughout your life has nothing to do with it. Nobody "becomes" a woman. They just are a woman and decide their body should catch up. It is not my duty to make you understand who I am. It is your duty to show me the respect I deserve. The transman you encountered is a he. Not a "she/he" - why would you even write that? What sort of hubris does it take for you to think that you know someone's identity better than they do, and can fathom their existence to such a degree that you can disagree with them on what they look like, or what pronouns are applicable to them? A woman was murdered because of the same ignorance you share.
Re: “The Long History of Ariel Castro, Cleveland Kidnapper and Monster”
The story seems to be the same, although this story has a happier ending. Neighbors ignore neighbors out of a desire not to become involved. Neighbors call police and nothing happens. So, there are two elements indifference and apathy and that is how these things happen in the poor neighborhoods of Cleveland.
Anthony Sowell's neighbors called but they were told it was probably the sausage factory down the street. Some gave up calling.
The tortued history of these incidents will repeat themselves unless we realize that we are our brothers keepers. There are over 90 missing persons cases still open in Cleveland and although three are now closed. We all need to keep an eye open for anything out of the ordinary for the sake of those missing.
Re: “The Internet is Now Raising Money for Charles Ramsey”
Hey, what about Angel Cordero who kicked the door in and held the baby while Amanda used Ramsey's phone to call 911? No one's lovin' him.
Re: “McDonald's Will Be in Touch with Charles Ramsey”
Hey, What about Angel Cordero who kicked the door down and was holding the baby while Amanda Berry was on the phone? Can't someone show him some love?
Re: “McDonald's Will Be in Touch with Charles Ramsey”
Now McDonald's will have a new theme. "I'm Savin' It."
Re: “The Long History of Ariel Castro, Cleveland Kidnapper and Monster”
Is it possible that his daughter's daughter was fathered by him too? I think they should do a DNA test. Maybe she was molested/raped by her father and that could be why she was attempting to kill her own child? Not that it's an excuse by ANY means, but it could prove to be a valid theory.
