0:00
Speaker 1: Fifty five K the talk station.
0:04
Speaker 2: Seventy on a Monday. I always look forward to this
0:08
Speaker 2: moment in time get to hear from the former Vice
0:11
Speaker 2: mayor of the City of Cincinnati, Christopher Smitheman, who's still
0:14
Speaker 2: still heavily active and engaged in matters political, especially with
0:17
Speaker 2: downtown Cincinnati.
0:18
Speaker 1: Wow.
0:19
Speaker 2: Christopher Smitheman, Welcome back to the morning show, my friend.
0:22
Speaker 2: What a real eye opener on Friday with the information
0:24
Speaker 2: from Signal ninety nine and FOP President Ken kober.
0:28
Speaker 1: Well. I listened to the whole show. It was very powerful,
0:32
Speaker 1: and I thank people like her. You know, she doesn't
0:36
Speaker 1: have to do that, she doesn't have to spend her
0:38
Speaker 1: time doing it, and she's giving accurate information out and
0:42
Speaker 1: it's why the inquirer outed her. You know, you know
0:47
Speaker 1: who is this writing this? We demand to know. They
0:49
Speaker 1: don't do that for anybody. It's because of the fear
0:52
Speaker 1: of the factual information that she was putting out. So yes,
0:55
Speaker 1: I enjoyed her immensely. Of course, I always enjoy the
0:59
Speaker 1: president of the FOP, and I hope that she will
1:03
Speaker 1: continue to come on and continue to provide you know
1:07
Speaker 1: the information that she has. You know, I want to
1:10
Speaker 1: piggyback off that interview on Friday to talk about today.
1:16
Speaker 1: And so as council goes it makes the decision of
1:20
Speaker 1: whether they're going to go into executive session. Every member
1:24
Speaker 1: of council should vote. Know, Brian Thomas, this is going
1:28
Speaker 1: to have me fired up next Monday. Okay, now hold
1:31
Speaker 1: on call that roll call. Vote yes real quick. Now.
1:36
Speaker 2: One of the big burning questions in my mind in
1:39
Speaker 2: signal ninety nine and can cover certainly didn't know the
1:41
Speaker 2: answer to this, and I'm wondering whether you know. Does
1:44
Speaker 2: the city manager Cheryl Long have the authority to enter
1:47
Speaker 2: into settlement negotiations? Does she have the authority to bind
1:51
Speaker 2: the city into a settlement agreement to the extent she
1:55
Speaker 2: comes up with? One? City council have any say in
1:57
Speaker 2: matters that involve money in the city taxpayers are the
2:00
Speaker 2: allocation of city taxpayers dollars? Christopher? Can she even do this?
2:05
Speaker 1: Law? The law? The law department can, and because the
2:08
Speaker 1: law department is its own entity, right, law, the legal
2:13
Speaker 1: team can. Now, there are situations and this is one
2:17
Speaker 1: of them where council should intervene and say yes or no.
2:22
Speaker 1: But I'm letting you know the law. The law of
2:24
Speaker 1: departments in most cities, but the law department here has
2:28
Speaker 1: a lot of power to negotiate things and say yes
2:32
Speaker 1: or no to them. And she's the city manager, and
2:37
Speaker 1: the city solicitor reports to the city manager. Now, having
2:41
Speaker 1: said all that, Brian, look they don't have to go
2:44
Speaker 1: into executive session. So that's a role called votes. And
2:49
Speaker 1: so all the accolade to any council member about how
2:52
Speaker 1: they feel about this, will know it today if they say,
2:56
Speaker 1: we're going to hide this discussion from Brian Thomas, from
2:59
Speaker 1: signal ninety nine, from Christopher samite Man and others.
3:04
Speaker 2: And that's what executive session means. I've heard no reporters
3:07
Speaker 2: know that council members can't even take notes during this
3:10
Speaker 2: executive sessions.
3:13
Speaker 1: Does that make sense, scense, No.
3:14
Speaker 2: It doesn't make any sense to me. And why would
3:17
Speaker 2: they put such a highly charged thing behind closed doors
3:20
Speaker 2: when we just it was only revealed because of whistleblowers
3:23
Speaker 2: like signal ninety nine and whoever talked with her, that
3:26
Speaker 2: there was even a subtlement discussion going on. It sounds
3:28
Speaker 2: to me like counsel wouldn't even have known about it
3:30
Speaker 2: but for the whistleblowers.
3:33
Speaker 1: That is absolutely true. And remember the city manager came
3:37
Speaker 1: out and said what it wasn't true. Well, they refuted
3:43
Speaker 1: what Signal ninety nine would say. And I think they're
3:45
Speaker 1: going to have to back away from that because if
3:48
Speaker 1: they go into executive session, it means that what Signal
3:51
Speaker 1: ninety nine communicated to the public was actually true and
3:55
Speaker 1: the city manager wasn't being truthful.
3:57
Speaker 2: They did not deny when you read the words from
4:01
Speaker 2: the city manager, when you read the words from the
4:03
Speaker 2: Hinton attorney, none of them denied that discussions were ongoing.
4:09
Speaker 2: They just describe it differently, this massive settlement, you know,
4:13
Speaker 2: the hinting lawyer. So I don't know anything about any
4:15
Speaker 2: massive multimillion dollar settlement, Yes, sir, but do you admit
4:19
Speaker 2: to engaging in settlement discussions with the city manager? My
4:23
Speaker 2: statement just stands as it is. I mean, so that's
4:25
Speaker 2: obviously a dodge dip, duck dive and dodge five d's
4:28
Speaker 2: a dodgeball kind of thing. The same thing from the
4:29
Speaker 2: city manager. Long She didn't deny that there were settlement discussions.
4:33
Speaker 1: She didn't.
4:34
Speaker 2: She just denied the characterization of them, which is a
4:37
Speaker 2: nonsensical way of trying to dodge the bullet and deny
4:40
Speaker 2: when you're really not denying, so.
4:43
Speaker 1: Well they will at least call it a white line.
4:45
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that's it.
4:46
Speaker 1: But the bottom line here is a signal ninety nine
4:51
Speaker 1: exposed something that was happening. And this is on the
4:54
Speaker 1: back of the eight point one million dollars settlement. Right,
4:57
Speaker 1: this is on the back of that. So the city
4:59
Speaker 1: is saying we're gonna raise your taxes, but they're engaging
5:03
Speaker 1: in giving money. Now, let's just rewind for the public. Now,
5:06
Speaker 1: this is the young man who had a gun in
5:10
Speaker 1: a stolen car running from our law enforcement. My absolute
5:15
Speaker 1: heart goes out to this family. But that is a
5:18
Speaker 1: recipe for an officer, unfortunately, to use deadly force. The
5:24
Speaker 1: father then turned around the next day identify the sheriff
5:29
Speaker 1: over at UC doing traffic control for their graduation, and
5:34
Speaker 1: ran him over with a vehicle. That's the discussion we're
5:37
Speaker 1: talking about, right, because my heart goes out to that
5:40
Speaker 1: family today. For this council to go into executive session
5:46
Speaker 1: is a smack in the face of all law enforcement
5:51
Speaker 1: across the United States of America period. We deserve to
5:55
Speaker 1: know what they're talking about, because we have a sheriff
5:59
Speaker 1: and a family still grieving because his father ran him over.
6:04
Speaker 1: He had nothing to do with it, Brian, and that
6:07
Speaker 1: is what is so frustrating to me.
6:09
Speaker 2: Well, another component of the frustration, you know, moving aside
6:11
Speaker 2: from the tragedy that befell the sheriff's family, the sheriff's
6:14
Speaker 2: deputy family, it's the city tax payer who's going to
6:18
Speaker 2: be on the hook for an increase in their earnings
6:21
Speaker 2: tax why in an interest of public safety? This seems
6:25
Speaker 2: to be you know, steeped in public safety related issues.
6:29
Speaker 2: And maybe one more place that the city tax dollars
6:32
Speaker 2: are going to be spent settling a lawsuit that never
6:34
Speaker 2: he has even been filed for an action that didn't
6:36
Speaker 2: even justify prosecution. See Connie Pilach about that. One will
6:39
Speaker 2: bring Christopher Smitheman back at seven twenty seven right now
6:42
Speaker 2: fifty five kerseit the talk station. Let me speaking of
6:44
Speaker 2: shooting imation. That's seven to thirty on a Monday, in
6:48
Speaker 2: a happy one to you, Brian Thomas with Christopher smith
6:50
Speaker 2: Aman do every Monday the Smith events. Would I like
6:53
Speaker 2: to call it former Vice mayor of the City of Cincinnati,
6:55
Speaker 2: just giving you an opportunity to get out of your
6:57
Speaker 2: system here in the morning show, Christopher, and I love it.
7:00
Speaker 1: Well. Listen, brother, we have a culture of no accountability,
7:04
Speaker 1: a culture of no common sense in America, and I'm
7:09
Speaker 1: gonna tie. First of all, I love all the local
7:12
Speaker 1: news you're covering. I turn on your show, and I
7:14
Speaker 1: encourage anybody listening. You know, Brian comes on at five am,
7:18
Speaker 1: and he goes off at nine am, and we get
7:20
Speaker 1: a breath of information about what is going on in
7:23
Speaker 1: our city. But let me say this to you, brother,
7:27
Speaker 1: that what I'm seeing nationally like ice and I stem
7:30
Speaker 1: my condolences to Renee Good, that's the woman who is
7:33
Speaker 1: shot in the head at Minneapolis. But here again, it's
7:37
Speaker 1: a recipe, just like I spoke about the recipe for
7:41
Speaker 1: the young man, mister Hinton, the recipe of trying to
7:47
Speaker 1: run down an ice officer with your vehicle. Okay, And
7:51
Speaker 1: the context of this is it's been happening all over
7:54
Speaker 1: the country. Ice officers don't know anymore. You're boxing them in.
7:59
Speaker 1: You boxing a federal agent, a police officer, an FBI agent,
8:03
Speaker 1: a DEA agent. Expect that agent to assume that you
8:09
Speaker 1: are there to harm them. Brian Thomas, I don't know
8:12
Speaker 1: what in the world is going on all these videos
8:14
Speaker 1: that I'm seeing out here on x with with these
8:18
Speaker 1: with these people across the country who think they can
8:20
Speaker 1: follow an agent, they can block the agent in, they
8:24
Speaker 1: can get in front of their vehicle and stop them.
8:26
Speaker 1: They can, they can in the middle of an arrest,
8:29
Speaker 1: they can pull the officer. You can't arrest them. You
8:33
Speaker 1: can't do what you're doing. Look this, you, You and
8:36
Speaker 1: I knew and anybody listening with any common sense knew
8:39
Speaker 1: that one day this was going to end up in
8:41
Speaker 1: a deadly forced situation. Right. The reality of it is
8:46
Speaker 1: is that person I'm talking about, Renee Good, was blocking
8:50
Speaker 1: the road with her car. They don't even talk about that.
8:52
Speaker 1: She pulled out in the road and was blocking the
8:55
Speaker 1: federal officer in their vehicle. They got out of their
8:58
Speaker 1: car and said move your who can't block the road?
9:02
Speaker 2: Yeah, interference with an officer performing his duties and enforcing
9:05
Speaker 2: the law. Interfering with that is in and of itself
9:08
Speaker 2: criminal activity. You can be cited for that. I mean,
9:11
Speaker 2: that's probably why they were screaming at her to get
9:13
Speaker 2: out of the car, because she had already committed the
9:14
Speaker 2: crime of interfering with lawful law enforcement officers. So a period,
9:18
Speaker 2: end of story, you don't listen to the police officers,
9:20
Speaker 2: he might get shot, I mean, and to the fact
9:23
Speaker 2: that she got shot. The left was waiting for that, Christopher,
9:27
Speaker 2: you know, damn well, they wanted a martyr out of
9:29
Speaker 2: all this. And much like George Floyd, maybe he got
9:31
Speaker 2: the wrong one, considering there's so much video evidence of
9:34
Speaker 2: her literally hitting the police officer. Whether you think deadly
9:39
Speaker 2: force was justified, it was legitimate under the circumstances because
9:43
Speaker 2: the man reasonably felt for his or thought his life
9:46
Speaker 2: was in peril. He'd already been through this once someone
9:49
Speaker 2: drug him him three hundred feet or so down the
9:51
Speaker 2: road in a car previously while he was trying to
9:53
Speaker 2: enforce the law. So you know he's on high alert
9:56
Speaker 2: for his life being in peril, and that may have
9:58
Speaker 2: prompted him to use a firearm. But uh, it's interference
10:01
Speaker 2: with law enforcement. They just believe they can get away
10:04
Speaker 2: with whatever they want. They've got this high moral authority,
10:07
Speaker 2: and then you're you're belief that it's some high moral
10:09
Speaker 2: authority does not trump the law.
10:13
Speaker 1: Why do I have to, as a peace officer, be
10:16
Speaker 1: drugged down the street before I use deadly force? I mean,
10:21
Speaker 1: what is what are we thinking? You You bring your
10:24
Speaker 1: car to a gunfight, right, expect to be shot. That
10:30
Speaker 1: is a weapon. You cannot run me down in the roads.
10:34
Speaker 1: And the the other part of it is what is
10:37
Speaker 1: going on in our mindset in American culture that all
10:40
Speaker 1: of us have been watching on TV. If you're watching
10:44
Speaker 1: UH independent news stations, you're watching these protesters constantly do this.
10:50
Speaker 1: And the reason I'm bringing it up is is directly
10:53
Speaker 1: tied to the culture of the settlement that city council
10:56
Speaker 1: is talking about on today, meaning meaning meaning there's no
11:00
Speaker 1: accountability here. Again, they're about to literally trash all law
11:06
Speaker 1: enforcement by saying that in some way we owe Hinton
11:10
Speaker 1: some money. We then give eight point one million dollars
11:13
Speaker 1: away to protesters in downtown. For these are taxpayer not
11:17
Speaker 1: their money, our money. We're gonna go away. We're gonna
11:20
Speaker 1: give that eight We're gonna give eight point one million
11:22
Speaker 1: dollars away with them. And on the same time, we
11:25
Speaker 1: see this national stuff happening with no accountability. Brian Thomas,
11:29
Speaker 1: guess what our mayor says, We're gonna We're gonna increase taxes.
11:32
Speaker 1: I don't want to pay for this craft. I don't
11:35
Speaker 1: want any money. I work incredibly hard as a small
11:39
Speaker 1: business owner to do what I do. I don't want
11:42
Speaker 1: to give the city any more of my money. I
11:45
Speaker 1: am tired of them, and that is what is happening.
11:48
Speaker 1: People are deciding I want to leave the city of Cincinnati.
11:52
Speaker 1: I'm gonna move my business, I'm gonna move my house.
11:55
Speaker 1: I don't want to be a part of this because
11:57
Speaker 1: they continue to do craziness like this. The hintings craziness
12:02
Speaker 1: is absolutely crazy. What we saw was Renee Good and
12:06
Speaker 1: guess what. There will be a lawsuit related to Renee Good.
12:09
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, somebody's gonna sue the federal government and you
12:12
Speaker 1: and I. There are a lot of different camera angles
12:15
Speaker 1: on this. Those who want to know, there's a camera
12:18
Speaker 1: camera angle that clearly shows the officer in the front
12:23
Speaker 1: of the vehicle being struck. Now, you can make up
12:26
Speaker 1: and show whatever video you want out there, right, but
12:30
Speaker 1: the reality of it is, there was an officer in
12:32
Speaker 1: the front who was struck, who had his weapon and
12:35
Speaker 1: discharged it, and that officer, that ice officer is gonna
12:39
Speaker 1: absolutely be cleared, period. But you're still gonna see the
12:42
Speaker 1: family turn around and sue the federal government, just like
12:46
Speaker 1: the Hintons, just like the eight point one million dollars settlement.
12:49
Speaker 1: We're gonna continue to see this lack of accountability and
12:53
Speaker 1: common sense in our culture.
12:55
Speaker 2: Brand Thomas, yes, we will. Well, at least ender of the
12:57
Speaker 2: Trump administration Justice Apartment probably unlikely to settle or enter
13:02
Speaker 2: into a quick settlement agreement with the family with a
13:06
Speaker 2: good family. Let's bring Christopher back for one more seven
13:08
Speaker 2: thirty seven right now. If you have have KRS the
13:10
Speaker 2: talk station we mentioned plum type plumbing, which is plumbing
13:12
Speaker 2: done right. They know you deserve better of plumb tight
13:15
Speaker 2: A plus the BBB like it's forty one to fifty
13:17
Speaker 2: five KR city talks stations right times with Christopher Smith
13:19
Speaker 2: Amen doing the Smither events. Now, Christopher, I know it
13:22
Speaker 2: was baked into the cake of what you were saying
13:25
Speaker 2: with regard to the local issues we have in the
13:27
Speaker 2: city of Cincinnati on crime, this whole hint and settlement
13:29
Speaker 2: thing that's going to be talked about today as well
13:31
Speaker 2: as the overlapping with the Minnesota issues and the shooting
13:35
Speaker 2: of that is good woman who was interfering with officers
13:38
Speaker 2: doing their their their proper appropriate law enforcement role. A
13:42
Speaker 2: lot of people are taking the cues from elected officials.
13:45
Speaker 2: What do the mayor up there say, get the hell
13:47
Speaker 2: he used a different word than hell out of my city. Ice.
13:50
Speaker 2: They think they have the moral high ground thinking that
13:53
Speaker 2: saying Ice are the modern day Gestapo and their jack
13:56
Speaker 2: boot thugs, and oh my god, you know, really they're
13:59
Speaker 2: only trying to get the worst of the worst out
14:01
Speaker 2: of our country. But when you've got elected officials and
14:03
Speaker 2: prominent political figures egging people on pivoting back over to
14:08
Speaker 2: local iris, Rolli's on video interfering with police officers doing
14:11
Speaker 2: their business, and according to Signal ninety nine, she was
14:14
Speaker 2: actually at the Remember when the sheriff's deputy got ran
14:16
Speaker 2: over the other day You just mentioned that. The day
14:18
Speaker 2: after the hinting kid was shot, his father ran over
14:22
Speaker 2: and killed a sheriff's deputy. Signal ninety nine said she
14:25
Speaker 2: was on the scenes there telling people witnesses to it
14:28
Speaker 2: not to cooperate with police, and ended up being put
14:30
Speaker 2: in the back of a police car. Herself wasn't cited.
14:33
Speaker 2: The video camera evidence from that incident's apparently locked in
14:37
Speaker 2: a safe to be seen by us down the road,
14:39
Speaker 2: she says, But there she is prominent local figure Iris Rowley,
14:43
Speaker 2: very politically connected and very prominent in impacting election outcomes,
14:47
Speaker 2: doing exactly what you and I believe is the wrong thing,
14:50
Speaker 2: putting officers lives in jeopardy as well as their own lives.
14:54
Speaker 1: First, I agree with you and the judge in the
14:57
Speaker 1: case should release the video definitely in light of this
15:02
Speaker 1: discussion about a settlement. But of course we won't have
15:05
Speaker 1: that transparency, just like we didn't have the transparency and
15:09
Speaker 1: the beatdown that happened in the middle of the city
15:12
Speaker 1: where the gentleman clearly was punched first, and most Americans
15:16
Speaker 1: don't know that. They still are looking at the old video,
15:19
Speaker 1: and so this city has a problem with transparency. Ie
15:23
Speaker 1: with Signal ninety nine, was sharing with us is executive
15:26
Speaker 1: session today. I want to share two quick points with
15:30
Speaker 1: you before we get off. I was at my daughter's
15:33
Speaker 1: swim meeting. I know you were a swimmer, and it
15:35
Speaker 1: was that Princeton High School thanked them for hosting. Seaton
15:38
Speaker 1: has a phenomenal team, and my hat goes out to
15:41
Speaker 1: coach Jody Schaeffer. But I was sitting there watching the
15:44
Speaker 1: five hundred being swimmed by all of the different girls.
15:48
Speaker 1: The difference between first and second place was less than
15:51
Speaker 1: a second most of the time. Oh yeah, right, very
15:55
Speaker 1: very close. Look, did you hear Brian Thomas here listening, Hoddey,
15:58
Speaker 1: This is a swimmer. I couldn't imagine a dude in
16:02
Speaker 1: that pool swimming against my daughter. This again goes back
16:07
Speaker 1: to the lack of accountability and common sense that's coming
16:10
Speaker 1: from the Democratic Party. And that's why so many Democrats
16:13
Speaker 1: are saying I didn't leave the Democratic Party. The Democratic
16:17
Speaker 1: Party left me. I couldn't imagine a dude swimming in
16:20
Speaker 1: that pool a seat and swim meet against any of
16:24
Speaker 1: those girls as where they're cheering and they're trying to
16:27
Speaker 1: get scholarships to go to college. It doesn't make any sense,
16:31
Speaker 1: Brian Thomas, And this is what is wrong right now
16:34
Speaker 1: in the Democratic Party. And I'm tying this directly to
16:38
Speaker 1: the governor's race, where we see David Pepper now is
16:41
Speaker 1: a running mate for Amy Acting. Look, let me share
16:45
Speaker 1: it be really clear. I'm on the other side of that.
16:48
Speaker 1: I support vivek Ramswami and I have supported him almost
16:52
Speaker 1: from day one. That gubernatorial race is critical because it's
16:57
Speaker 1: the check and balance to all these local municipalities around us.
17:01
Speaker 1: If we lose the governor's office this year. We in Ohio,
17:05
Speaker 1: we are in serious trouble. People. You cannot stay home
17:09
Speaker 1: from that election like you just did in this local election.
17:13
Speaker 1: We need every single body, every eighteen year old register
17:17
Speaker 1: to vote, making sure your address matches the Board of Elections,
17:21
Speaker 1: and we need everybody at the polls rocking it because
17:25
Speaker 1: the other side, when you're watching these videos Brian Thomas,
17:28
Speaker 1: of people obstructing ice officers, obstructing police officers, right, all
17:34
Speaker 1: of these settlements that you're seeing coming out of these
17:36
Speaker 1: liberal cities. If we don't have a check and balance
17:40
Speaker 1: in that governor's office, shame on us. This is a
17:44
Speaker 1: very important race. And I have been shocked by mister
17:47
Speaker 1: Pepper and all of his tweets over the weekend trying
17:50
Speaker 1: to shame veak Ramaswami for being financially successful. He's a billionaire.
17:56
Speaker 1: I get it, I understand it. He's self made. But
18:00
Speaker 1: David Pepper got his money from his family. He's a
18:03
Speaker 1: trust fund baby. And I'm sitting there going would I
18:06
Speaker 1: want to trust fund baby in the governor gubernatorio or
18:09
Speaker 1: the Governor's office? Or do I want a self made
18:13
Speaker 1: billionaire who knows how to make money, run budgets, pull
18:17
Speaker 1: this dog on Ohio, this great state into the twenty
18:20
Speaker 1: first century. Whether it's education, whether it's economics, whether it's jobs,
18:25
Speaker 1: whether it's housing, you name it. We need a fresh
18:28
Speaker 1: set of eyes on Ohio. And Brian, I am really
18:31
Speaker 1: worried about this race, that people are getting lost in
18:34
Speaker 1: the sauce. There is no way when she picked the
18:37
Speaker 1: two of them together, to me, are like, I got
18:39
Speaker 1: one who locked us all down, right, and I've got
18:42
Speaker 1: the other one here who doesn't know anything about business,
18:45
Speaker 1: that's just been handed with a silver spoof, and we
18:47
Speaker 1: want to turn over the entire state of Ohio to them.
18:50
Speaker 1: This makes absolutely no sense, Brian Thomas. And I'm telling you,
18:54
Speaker 1: whether it's Leah Dinkin Locker who's running for the judgeship,
18:59
Speaker 1: we always talking about the judges and we're worried about
19:02
Speaker 1: people being let out, Well, you better vote for Leah
19:05
Speaker 1: dinky Locker. You're worried about Winkler. Winkler's running here locally,
19:09
Speaker 1: we better elect him. My point, Brian is the penicillin.
19:13
Speaker 1: You know it. Elections have consequences. We'll see it today
19:18
Speaker 1: with the Executive Session. Who will vote to say no.
19:21
Speaker 1: Executive session. I'm going to shine a light on hinting
19:27
Speaker 1: and whether we settle the case or not, I'm going
19:29
Speaker 1: to have the courage to tell the public who will
19:31
Speaker 1: pay the bill? Brian Thomas, We're the ones paying the bill,
19:34
Speaker 1: not them, that they get a chance to listen to
19:37
Speaker 1: the dialogue around whether we should give this family any
19:40
Speaker 1: money at all. I extend my deepest condolences to this
19:44
Speaker 1: young man and his family, but we do not in
19:47
Speaker 1: this city should not be giving them any money for
19:51
Speaker 1: a young man who had a gun and a stolen
19:53
Speaker 1: car running from an officer and turning that weapon towards
19:56
Speaker 1: that officer, or that officer having it to take the
19:59
Speaker 1: unfortunate to see going to take his life. Brian Thomas,
20:01
Speaker 1: we are moving in a world here, brother, where it
20:04
Speaker 1: is complete insanity. It's not black, it's not white, it's
20:09
Speaker 1: not Latino. Brother, it's values, and my values are saying
20:13
Speaker 1: what is right and wrong. We've got to go back
20:16
Speaker 1: to common sense. I love you, Brian Thomas, event will
20:19
Speaker 1: allowing me to have a voice on your show.
20:22
Speaker 2: It's always a pleasure. I appreciate your common sense words
20:24
Speaker 2: and I'll look forward to another segment on this on Monday,
20:26
Speaker 2: and maybe even another one before then. We find out
20:29
Speaker 2: they do an executive session or we find out what
20:31
Speaker 2: goes on behind the scenes. In one we get some
20:33
Speaker 2: details on that. Maybe you have a chime in during
20:35
Speaker 2: the week on that. So however, it's like.
