The hearse that circled the streets surrounding Columbus City Hall Monday evening had no dead to transport.
The Cadillac, in fact, was nowhere near large enough to accommodate all the people those in the procession had come to mourn all of them killed by Columbus police.

We re standing against policing without compassion. We re standing against policing without mercy. We re standing against policing without grace, said the Rev. Edward Lewis, pastor of Bethany Presbyterian Church on the Near East Side. We re standing against policing that is bereft of humanity.
