“John Baiata of NBC News reports with regard to the discovery of the women who were kidnapped in Cleveland and held captive for approximately 10 years. Cleveland police responded twice to the address where the 3 Ohio women were held – in 2000 and in 2004. Yet, as in Boston following the discovery of the Boston bomber by a citizen after a botched police search, the crowds cheered the police. From Reuters on the Ohio kidnap case: ‘Cheers from the crowd erupted periodically as police cars entered the area.’ My guess is that police states always come with cheering fans, until the police come for you.”
