1. Hi Leonard, would you consider sending and email to Timothy McGinty the Cuyahoga County Prosecutor. He is responsible for letting off the police officer who shot and killed the Young, 12 year old black boy, Tamir Rice. If they know the world is watching they may change their ways. They have a web site and contact information. Here’s the email that I sent them:
   Mr. McGinty, how can you justify what just happened in regards to a 12 year old boy, Tamir Rice? The world is looking and it is horrified at this injustice. Until justice prevails it will happen again and again. This is just wrong and deep in your heart you must know this.

     • Thank you so much, Leonard. They need to know that what they are doing is wrong and everyone is watching.

     • Bless you Leonard. Every email counts.

   • There could be worse ways, of course, and the harmonies make it worthwhile.
