Around 8am Saturday morning the owner of Ecclesiastic Granite Fab discovered the body of Skye Mockabee in his parking lot in Cleveland's Puritas-Longmead neighborhood.
The 26-year-old Mockabee was declared dead at 8:30 after EMS, firefighters and police arrived at the scene. The police report said the body was lying face-down next to a tow truck with blood coming out of her mouth. The police report also described the victim as a man. On Monday the Cuyahoga County Medical Examiner's Office deadnamed Mockabee.

Thomas Frank, Mark Warner, SS, the Rust Belt, and My Personal Frustration
Submitted by cardboardurinal on Thu, 05/05/2016 - 11:45amI posted this on my Facebook this morning, and I wanted to share it with a wider audience. I know that nothing I am saying here is news to anyone here. I just wanted to share my frustration(s) and a personal anecdote.
This morning I have been thinking about the Democratic Party elites and how they have, still are, and are trying to further betray the working class people of America.

East Youngstown, Ohio - Mayor Blames "Desolation Wrought" on Company Guards
From The Pittsburgh Sunday Post, page 2, of January 9, 1916:
East Youngstown Mayor Blames Riot
on Guards
-----YOUNGSTOWN, O., Jan. 8- "I am completely dazed over the horrible occurrence here and the desolation wrought," Mayor William H. Cunningham of East Youngstown said, in commenting on the riot.
"From what I have been told I fear it was caused by the armed guards on the bridge. Had the guards been kept within the limits of the mill property I doubt if there would have been any trouble.
Eye-witnesses have told me it was the guards on the bridge that fired the first shots. That aroused the fury of the mob.
"I think the trouble is over for the present and do not look for any further outbreak unless an effort is made to operate the plants with strikebreakers. There will be trouble if this is attempted."
