(34,995 posts)As in many other major cities. Property damage, etc. CPD tracked down and charged some of the perpetrators who were there only to destroy property. I thought I had posted a story from the Plain Dealer right after the protests about two young white guys from Erie PA who came to Cleveland just to destroy and burn things? Maybe I forgot.
Cleveland has a Democratic mayor, so of course Dumpy is going to send his goons there.
