Cross burning in rural Oxford Twp. investigated
There are a couple of things the article leaves out or just forgot to clarify. The first is how did Mr. Legesse find the charred remnants of the wooden cross? Were they erected like it had burned on his front lawn, or was the wooden cross discarded in his yard? That leads to the second issue, are there obvious reasons Mr. Legesse would be a target of a cross burning? The act of cross burning is the signature means of intimidation of the KKK, so his race, ethnicity, or religion might indicate whether he was a target or not. Any activity by the KKK should be investigated fully by the police, but one point that makes little sense is that when black hate groups intimidate others, namely those on City Council, they are called activists or even civil-rights advocates. When hates crimes go on in OTR, namely egg and bottle throwing at whites driving through, it does not make the news. Here an incident that occurred 30 miles north of Cincinnati gets more coverage than multiple similar incidents that occur less than a mile from both daily newspapers in town.

UPDATE: WKRC TV reported tonight that this incident happened in the yard of Miami University Professor and is potentially considered a racial motivated hate crime by local police.

Enquirer files suit against school board
It is never a good idea for a news media operation to make their own news. Here they not only are making news, they are creating a scandal. I will give them credit for exposing the method in how the new CPS Superintendent was hired. It could have been much more open to public review, but the public would not have had any more input in who was hired. That choice was the school board's. The Enquirer now should not focus on a civil rights violation lawsuit, but instead go for a freedom of information order and publish all of secrecy methods used by the board and the various candidates. The Enquirer can then hold the School Board’s feet to the fire until the next election, when the people may judge the Board’s actions.

Issues of war, economy stoke campus activism
This is Faux Activism. Myopic ideas do not a justified position make. Pacifism is as valid a position as leaving your money in pile in middle of the street, thinking it will be safe.

Twitty Takes To The Airwaves
This man has no shame. He still clings to the myth that he did nothing wrong. The city is now better off that he is no longer on the police force. I would guess many in the black community would have wanted him to become the next police chief. How could they honestly support a man without enough character to tell the truth? I know why and racial politics is the reason. It should be alarming that 99% of the racial politics in this City is practiced by blacks. Those who practice it think it is the correct way to "promote change," which far too often translates to "get revenge on the white man." This type of bigotry is what is causing more friction in the city than all of the bigotry by whites.

Alert trucker: 'I'm no hero'
The local media are going to milk this part of the story dry. WLW is already beating its chest as the source of the trucker's information to make the call to the police. The rest of local media had their say: Enquirer, WCPO, WLWT, WKRC, WXIX.

Cincinnati police accused of beating African American residents to face lawsuits
If blacks have been abused in this city for years, why are there not more than 15 people filing a lawsuit? If this happens nearly ever day here in Cincinnati, then why are not nearly 300 people filing a lawsuit for this years incidents alone?
