 since it's a "national conversation"  I think that we should all know who Antonio West was. Tragic. Steve

Very sad thing.  All murders of innocent people are sad things.  I suppose we could cite hundreds of examples, from all sides of the conversation.  "Google" the murder of Edward McMichael, Seattle's "Tuba Man", who was beaten to death for no reason.   Follow the criminal histories of the perps.

And now Cleveland is having another multiple murder situation, with bodies found in garbage bags.  Humans being what we are, I doubt there will ever be an end to this stuff.

Many factors involved. The POS in Cleveland was convicted 10 years ago of a crime he never should have been released for. Life means nothing anymore. Children and adults are being desensitized to death. The nuclear family is gone. Role models are either nonexistent or inappropriate. Fathers are nonexistent or inappropriate. I could go on but you get the picture. Of course these are my opinions and maybe not popular with many here. But I have a feeling I may not be alone. Sadly, we will be seeing much more of this before we find some sort of solution if ever.

No, you are not alone here. How can you kill an innocent child? Even if you are some depraved crack head there has to be some sense somewhere in your misguided, can't see the future, lost soul of a life that would stop you from doing something so unspeakable. But sadly there wasn't. That poor child has no voice in this country. His family has no recourse against the losers that did it. The State put them in jail but for how long? I remember the Auuuuunt lied for one of the miserable little bastards. Would you lie for somebody that did this unspeakable crime? Their President cherry picks what he gets involved with. Oh excuse me. Our President.
