Sometimes a caricature just comes together quick as in the case of Cleveland Hero Charles Ramsey. He was the neighbor of the guy that kept three women captive in Cleveland for 10 years. So I figured he deserved his own cartoon tribute along with this classic line he told the reporter interviewing him after the rescue.
I knew something was wrong when a little pretty white girl ran into a black man’s arms…either she’s homeless or she’s got problems.
This is what I love about not having a set schedule as I can pull these things off quickly to react to news of the day. Must have struck a cord because I shared this on Facebook last night and actually got some shares from that damn site. Seemed to be a hit on G+ too.

Excellent Bearman!
Thanks David
Great job. I have not followed the story too much but I did hear the shocking news. I hope the three women can recover.
Thanks. Might take a while but I hope so too.
it really might! and they deserve how much time they need to get over it. It really does not help for the whole damn press to try to get a word with them/
true.
I saw the interview with him. He rocks. He’s my hero this week. I loved his sense of humor too.
Have a terrific day. 🙂
Mine too. Thanks Sandee
Bearman, you did very well with this one!
Love it!
Thanks Bill
he really did and thank goodness those girls did not have to stay in that house longer!
Thanks Arela
Darned good, B. This guy was so hilarious, no one had to do much to make him amusing. We’re gonna see a lot of him in the next few weeks, a la Antoine Dodson-style. 🙂
Thanks G. He came together quickly which was a bonus.
A heroic rendition, Bearman!
Thanks Mark
I’ve only heard snippets about this, but how did that pervert manage to keep all of them hidden for so long?
Chained in the basement and loud music
The fact that he reported it makes him a hero.
And kicking the door in
He said hoeing not homless
haha..I heard the video wrong. Even better
was only a matter of time before this happened 😆
Awesome.
i do enjoy this video!! Shows that people may come up with some humor for this terrifying situation.
I need this as my ringtone
Hey bro, you brushed his hair 🙂
I like my cartoons to be styling
He didn’t turn it green, though.
🙂
That would just be cruel
Thank Goodness for finding these girls!! It must have been really hard to live on the same street as this.
Probably easy because no one knew it was going on
This guy is awesome, I love the fact he is not taking the reward money, he has a pay check
I’d like to think I would be so generous but probably not
A true Hero indeed. Way to go Mr Ramsey
Glad to see you still popping your bald head in Tony
I just can’t give up cartoons, both reading them & drawing my own. I just enjoy them too much.
My bald head is even balder now. At the beginning of summer I went for a #2 clipper cut as I usually do in the warmer months & I couldn’t believe how thin & patchy it looked once it was cut so short so I shaved it all off. Now I shave it daily when I do my face & I actually prefer it like that now. I’ll have to adjust out the side hair in my Gravatar
I’ll have to find the original and give you a haircut.
I think you were trying to do so much. The passion is in it for me now that I no longer force myself into a reading or drawing schedule.
awesome cartoon, tribute and reaction to your post!!! Good job!!!
and congrats/thanks to Charles Ramsey, the hero guy too!!! AND awesome video!!!
🙂
Thanks B
and in typical fashion, now the media are calling him a villain because they dug into his past and found out that he is a convicted domestic violence offender.
the guy did a good deed.
That’s why I never want to be famous…just rich.
yeh im the same… i dont want to ever be famous just rich.. like the Loon.. haha
Oh to be rich like the damn loon
Awesome, Bearman. Enjoy your popularity! lol

these days 🙁

I want to read some Jackie Collins books like Lovers and Players, so as you can tell I like romance books that are filled with drama! XD But I also LOVE horror books that have blood and everything so if you have any GREAT books in mind PLEASE HELP!
