Cleveland. I have never been there. I am thinking it must be a crap hole like Detroit or New Orleans, or any of dozens of citys around this land, and others, where useless minoritys were allowed to become the majority.
Here we have a elected city man trying to reduce crime in his area, and [not very wise] gets involved with this young ape to try to "turn him around".
I guess he does not know, unless there is a basketball or rap mic, a black will not turn around, ever. So, after the dark thug was arrested again, he writes a letter to the thug that his mamee is saying is racist - In it he says "he called Winston "dumber than mud," a "thug," and was signed, "go to jail or the cemetery soon." I think we all can guess what the racism claim is here - Because he was compared to mud. Very true, in more ways than one but I am sure this guy did not mean to use it the way we would, he could have said dumb as a rock for his meaning, but now of course the dark breeds are calling for his head, to give up his job, and no doubt are thinking of a law suit.
They do not like monkey chants, they do not like being compared to mud, this tells me everything that I have ever been told about them and know about them is correct.

Councilman Defends Controversial Letter To Teen
Councilman Wrote To Teen After Boy's 2nd Arrest

CLEVELAND -- A Cleveland city councilman is at the center of a controversy after the terms "racist" and "inappropriate" are used to describe a letter he wrote to a young man arrest in Ward 11.

The letter was written by Councilman Mike Polensek.

The Bob Frantz Show devoted four hours to the topic on WTAM Thursday morning.

Polensek first met 17-year-old Arsenio Winston last year, when he met with the teen and his mother to try to get the boy to turn his life around.

But after Winston was arrested a second time in Polensek's ward, he wrote the teen a letter on city stationary.

In it, he called Winston "dumber than mud," a "thug," and was signed, "go to jail or the cemetery soon."

Callers to Frantz' show overwhelmingly supported Polensek. The councilman and Morris also called into the show.

"My concern with some of the over-the-top language, and I wasn't sure what he was trying to achieve," said Morris.

Polensek said he was trying to get the teen to think about his actions.

Although Morris disagreed with the language, he commended Polensek for writing a letter at all.

According to the Plain Dealer, Winston's mother is upset over the letter, saying it's racist.

She's started writing letters herself, to the NAACP and the Rev. Al Sharpton.

Polensek defended himself when interviewed by NewsChannel5's Curtis Jackson and remains unapologetic.

"I don't regret it one iota and I'm glad I sent the letter ... Enough is enough. You want to sell crack go, somplace else. You're not doing it in my neighborhood," he said.

Winston's mother, Toyna Lewis, said it was inappropriate for Polensek to send the letter on city letterhead and it's made a bad situation for her family even worse.

"If you received a letter like this at the age of 18, it probably would hurt more than anything because you would say, 'You know what, now everybody just done gave up on me, so I might as well say the heck with it,'" Lewis said.

In response to Lewis calling Polensek's letter racist, the councilman said, "Racist what? In what way? Wasn't it racist to sell drugs to black children? What is that? That's genocide. That's what that is."
