Speaker 2: At seven nineteen if you have krocde Talks station, Happy Monday.
0:09
Speaker 2: Oh he's extra special. We get the benefit of the
0:11
Speaker 2: former Vice mayor of the City Cincinnati, Christopher First smith Man,
0:14
Speaker 2: with his comments. We call it the smith Vent. Welcome back, Christopher, Hope.
0:17
Speaker 2: You had a wonderful week on my friend.
0:19
Speaker 3: I did, brother, thank you so much.
0:21
Speaker 1: I dropped my daughter off at school. I won't say
0:25
Speaker 1: what school, but you know it was a very tough thing,
0:29
Speaker 1: but I was very very happy for her, right.
0:32
Speaker 2: So it bit or sweet and I guess you've.
0:34
Speaker 1: Done all of that, yep, you know. And so you
0:37
Speaker 1: know I'm a widower, and you know, I know there's
0:39
Speaker 1: a lot of people out there who who go through this.
0:43
Speaker 1: These are big changes. It's not fake. And so my
0:46
Speaker 1: heart goes out there to all those who've lost someone
0:49
Speaker 1: and you get to these things that should be joyous
0:51
Speaker 1: and easy to.
0:52
Speaker 3: Do, and it really complicates it.
0:54
Speaker 1: But I don't want anybody to believe that I am
0:57
Speaker 1: not over the moon.
0:58
Speaker 3: And so proud of her accomplishments.
1:01
Speaker 1: And I thank Seatan High School for everything they did
1:05
Speaker 1: for her. I will never forget Seatan or Elder for
1:10
Speaker 1: the love and the support and her preparation. Meaning at
1:14
Speaker 1: the end of the day, it's about she's prepared. You
1:17
Speaker 1: know she's going to walk into a classroom because she
1:19
Speaker 1: got a great education. And I can't say enough about
1:22
Speaker 1: those two institutions.
1:23
Speaker 2: Well a, Christopher, you never got a check for making
1:26
Speaker 2: sure your daughter went to school, either, did you.
1:30
Speaker 1: No.
1:30
Speaker 2: I want to thank you for being a responsible parent
1:33
Speaker 2: like mine. Were insisting that your daughter getting a good
1:35
Speaker 2: education like the rest of your children, putting them out
1:38
Speaker 2: into society prepared to deal with the challenges that they
1:40
Speaker 2: are going to be met with, making them responsible pehicle people.
1:44
Speaker 2: By being a responsible parent. You and Pamela did that
1:46
Speaker 2: all their entire lives. Your late wife was a wonderful,
1:48
Speaker 2: wonderful parent and woman, and you continue the challenge on
1:51
Speaker 2: your own. And I cannot imagine how difficult that is. Christopher.
1:54
Speaker 2: I hear you all bittersweet about your daughter going off
1:56
Speaker 2: to college. I'd feel the same way, and I did
1:58
Speaker 2: feel the same way when my daughter went. But society
2:00
Speaker 2: owes you a debt of gratitude for being a good parent,
2:04
Speaker 2: and I think I applaud and slewed all parents out
2:06
Speaker 2: there who have that attitude. Towards the education of their children.
2:10
Speaker 3: Well, I appreciate it.
2:11
Speaker 1: Man, This my segment, and you tell me whether you
2:14
Speaker 1: want to go to break or not. But the title
2:16
Speaker 1: of my segment is Jerry Maguire, I Love the Black
2:19
Speaker 1: Man's that is? That is if you remember that scene, Yeah,
2:24
Speaker 1: Tom Cruise sitting in his offense saying I Love the
2:28
Speaker 1: Black Man. Yeah, it's one of my it's one of
2:31
Speaker 1: my favorite movies. But I'm gonna let you know, dude,
2:34
Speaker 1: as we pivot into the next segment, that the next
2:37
Speaker 1: segment is all about I Love the Black Man. And
2:42
Speaker 1: I will connect these dots as we move into Labor
2:45
Speaker 1: Day weekend and deal with the Democratic Party who always
2:50
Speaker 1: discovers the black community during the election, and it starts
2:54
Speaker 1: right after Labor Day. Black people become important, that's it.
2:59
Speaker 1: And they will pin and use and strategize of how
3:02
Speaker 1: they're going to get the black vote. What do they
3:04
Speaker 1: need to say, how they gin us up, you know,
3:07
Speaker 1: how they can get the emotions high in order to
3:09
Speaker 1: get their base out to vote for them. But the
3:12
Speaker 1: rest of the election cycle, if Black Americans are listening
3:16
Speaker 1: to me, that's why they disappear. And after the election
3:20
Speaker 1: they're going to do exactly the same. Okay, yeah, after
3:23
Speaker 1: Labor Day. I love the black man that's going in
3:26
Speaker 1: the Labor Day. The election happens, we're backs of business
3:29
Speaker 1: as usual.
3:30
Speaker 2: Do well before we get to the break. Though it
3:31
Speaker 2: might observe that, you know, formy one, shame on you
3:34
Speaker 2: for me twice shame on me. The shame on me
3:36
Speaker 2: components should have been existing live and well on the
3:38
Speaker 2: black community for decades, because the have the Democrats ever
3:42
Speaker 2: truly delivered on anything they're promising to the black people specifically,
3:47
Speaker 2: I mean, I knew.
3:48
Speaker 1: What Lyndon Johnson said, he meant it. It was his strategy.
3:53
Speaker 1: Anybody can look up President Lyndon Johnson and he has
3:57
Speaker 1: delivered right. And so there was pivot where Linda Johnson said,
4:02
Speaker 1: I'm gonna make sure that Black Americans vote for Democrats
4:06
Speaker 1: for the next two hundred years. And they put the
4:09
Speaker 1: strategy together for that to happen. But I'm just sharing
4:12
Speaker 1: with you. You will watch the commercials. Democrats will start going
4:17
Speaker 1: to African American churches. They're ministers out there. Keep them
4:22
Speaker 1: out of your church, keep them away from your services.
4:25
Speaker 1: You know, I'm Catholic. After the homily, there are no
4:30
Speaker 1: politicians that get up on the mic and start talking
4:33
Speaker 1: at Catholic churches, the nine o'clock Mass, the eleven o'clock math.
4:37
Speaker 1: You know, oftentimes this is in all these other churches,
4:39
Speaker 1: but specifically in Black American churches, right where these politicians
4:45
Speaker 1: think they can come to our churches after Labor Day
4:49
Speaker 1: and we've got to announce that they're there and happy
4:51
Speaker 1: that they're there. And then they get on the podium,
4:53
Speaker 1: Hey my name is and they start acting like they're
4:55
Speaker 1: a preacher. They change their voice and their cadence. You know,
5:00
Speaker 1: I'm so happy to be here today to talk to everybody.
5:04
Speaker 3: You know, they go through all this craziness.
5:06
Speaker 1: Man, this is this is I call, you know, the
5:09
Speaker 1: Jerry McGuire moment. It's coming right now. In their commercials,
5:12
Speaker 1: what they do, how they act, they're looking for those
5:15
Speaker 1: they're looking for those sarrogate black people to walk them
5:18
Speaker 1: through black neighborhoods because they're really scared. So they need
5:21
Speaker 1: somebody black to walk with them through the neighborhood, to
5:24
Speaker 1: knock on the door and say, hey, I'm so and
5:26
Speaker 1: so let me introduce you to Michael. And they're knocking
5:29
Speaker 1: on the door, so I'm just going to share with you.
5:31
Speaker 1: I'm going to continue to talk about this because now
5:33
Speaker 1: we're going into the Labor Day weekend, and this is
5:36
Speaker 1: when white Democrats start discovering Black America, black churches and
5:41
Speaker 1: they start saying crazy stuff.
5:43
Speaker 2: Dude, Well, as a black man, Christopher Smithman, it sounds
5:46
Speaker 2: like you're seeing through this nonsense. We'll hear more from
5:49
Speaker 2: Christopher coming up in the next segment. He's on a roll.
5:52
Speaker 2: Typically is on a Monday.
5:54
Speaker 1: Five k the talk station.
5:58
Speaker 2: At seify Karcity talks Todays dying. Christopher Smithman on the
6:01
Speaker 2: phone as he always is on a Monday. If former
6:02
Speaker 2: Vice Man of the City Cincinnati ge n it up,
6:05
Speaker 2: vent nispleen, Christopher, you have the floor, my friend, Brian.
6:10
Speaker 1: A race that we're in, returning to political races, would
6:14
Speaker 1: not be a democratic political race without some racial strife.
6:19
Speaker 1: So part of the recipe, if you're thinking, you know
6:22
Speaker 1: you're listening audience, faithful listening audience. If they think about
6:26
Speaker 1: making bread or you know, cooking their favorite dish as
6:30
Speaker 1: an example, what are the ingredients for the Democratic Party
6:32
Speaker 1: to win an election? And part of it is to
6:35
Speaker 1: get the black community, Black Americans ginned up about race.
6:41
Speaker 1: So look for them to manufacture something between now and
6:45
Speaker 1: the election, because that's also their strategy. Look for them
6:50
Speaker 1: to take advantage of something that has happened to say, Aha,
6:56
Speaker 1: this is the white man who doesn't like you, who's
6:59
Speaker 1: oppressing you, who has their foot on your neck, and
7:02
Speaker 1: you've got to come out because we the Democratic Party,
7:06
Speaker 1: are going to protect you. They don't tell the story
7:09
Speaker 1: that they were the klan, that they were the persons
7:13
Speaker 1: the people in the South who lynched my grandfather's friends,
7:17
Speaker 1: who terrorized black Americans with poll taxes when they wanted
7:22
Speaker 1: to vote. It was Lincoln who signed the executive order
7:25
Speaker 1: of the Emancipation Proclamation. It was the Republicans who voted
7:30
Speaker 1: for the thirteenth and fourteenth Amendment. They won't put that
7:32
Speaker 1: out there, and unfortunately the Republican Party hides they don't
7:36
Speaker 1: even know their own history to talk about the freedom.
7:40
Speaker 1: So those are the commercials they should be talking about.
7:43
Speaker 1: But as we move into now the silly season, look
7:47
Speaker 1: for the Democrats to do what they do. They're looking
7:50
Speaker 1: for something, something chaotic to happen. It doesn't even have
7:52
Speaker 1: to happen in your region. It happened anywhere in our
7:56
Speaker 1: fifty states, and they will make it like it happened
7:59
Speaker 1: right and down downtown where you live. That's the crazy part.
8:02
Speaker 2: Well, the interesting thing about this, Christopher is now there
8:05
Speaker 2: will be like over this past several days, a lot
8:07
Speaker 2: of shootings in and around downtown Cincinnati. We got a
8:10
Speaker 2: fourteen year old was arrested for shooting someone with a gun. Okay,
8:13
Speaker 2: But when you hear from the Democrat administration, oh, no,
8:16
Speaker 2: crime's not a problem. You're not. Don't believe your own eyes.
8:19
Speaker 2: Listen to what So those multiple illustrations of criminal activity
8:23
Speaker 2: over a short several day period are ignored and the
8:26
Speaker 2: response from the Democrats is nothing to see here. Now,
8:29
Speaker 2: pivoting over to you what you anticipate, Let's say, George Floyd,
8:33
Speaker 2: what we had there is one guy being let's just assume,
8:36
Speaker 2: for the sake of discussion, a victim of maybe illegal conduct. Conduct. Well,
8:42
Speaker 2: that type of singular thing, criminal conduct comes from the
8:47
Speaker 2: four corners of the world every single day. So you'll
8:49
Speaker 2: have crime in California, you got crime in Cincinnati. Sometimes
8:52
Speaker 2: the police are involved in untoward conduct and they get
8:55
Speaker 2: called out for it occasionally, but the vast majority of people,
8:59
Speaker 2: generally speaking, aren't running around committing acts of violence. The
9:02
Speaker 2: vast majority of police department officials are not racist, and
9:05
Speaker 2: yet the left will get away with saying one singular
9:10
Speaker 2: victim is illustrative of this massive problem that's literally everywhere
9:16
Speaker 2: in the United States of America. They wait around for
9:18
Speaker 2: years until George Floyd came around and then hung him out.
9:21
Speaker 2: Is the illustration of a systemic problem. Wait a minute,
9:24
Speaker 2: where are all these other illustrations of systemic problems? I mean,
9:28
Speaker 2: we have a George Floyd in the front page of
9:30
Speaker 2: the newspaper every single day. Although that just doesn't happen now,
9:33
Speaker 2: does it, Christopher.
9:35
Speaker 1: Well, you pivot it right into which is a beautiful
9:38
Speaker 1: part of my segment of black lives matter. So part
9:41
Speaker 1: of the salt and pepper going after Labor Day is
9:44
Speaker 1: to start using the term black lives matter. We need
9:47
Speaker 1: some yard signs for yards, We need to illustrate that
9:50
Speaker 1: I love the black man. We got Tom Cruise out
9:53
Speaker 1: here screaming on his phone in the political atmosphere. That
9:57
Speaker 1: is what they're going to do. And so you're going
9:59
Speaker 1: to see then promoting black lives matter.
10:01
Speaker 3: Pivoting to what you just clearly articulated.
10:04
Speaker 1: They issue a black man shooting black men and killing
10:08
Speaker 1: each other. I am a black American for those who
10:11
Speaker 1: are listening, so I'm very sensitive to this. You don't
10:14
Speaker 1: hear Democrats wanting to solve that problem. You don't see
10:18
Speaker 1: them out there fighting for that, because there are people
10:20
Speaker 1: out there in the black community, very small minority, very
10:25
Speaker 1: small minority of people who believe in criminal justice reparations.
10:29
Speaker 1: So they're out there saying, hey, man, you got a gun,
10:32
Speaker 1: you killed somebody, Let's let them off right. So we're
10:36
Speaker 1: doing that for all the historical things that did happen
10:39
Speaker 1: in America where there were black Americans who were put
10:42
Speaker 1: in prison thirty forty fifty years ago for stuff they
10:45
Speaker 1: didn't do. So now you've got judges out there who
10:48
Speaker 1: believe in what we call criminal justice reparations, and they
10:52
Speaker 1: want to keep letting these killers out here with guns
10:55
Speaker 1: in our street or whatever they're doing, whatever they're involved in.
10:59
Speaker 1: But that is real thing. It's not just money, Brian Thomas,
11:03
Speaker 1: it's a mindset, and Democrats are pimping that out. They're
11:06
Speaker 1: going around saying, man, racism is so bad. You know
11:10
Speaker 1: your twelve year old had a gun and shot three people,
11:13
Speaker 1: or you're or we can't approach your son downtown on
11:16
Speaker 1: the banks. I've got a white officer who's downtown sees
11:20
Speaker 1: a young person, he's fourteen years old. He's terrified to
11:22
Speaker 1: go over and say, hey, dude, it's three o'clock in
11:25
Speaker 1: the morning on a school night. Why are you downtown?
11:28
Speaker 1: What's your name? Oh? No, man, you're being a racist.
11:31
Speaker 1: You're just you're profiling me. Oh you look like a
11:34
Speaker 1: kid like who's never shaved before. Dude, you're walking around
11:37
Speaker 1: downtown with your pants down, and you shouldn't be down here,
11:41
Speaker 1: And I'm gonna have I'm gonna be able to ask
11:43
Speaker 1: you a question. The point that I'm making is as
11:46
Speaker 1: we move closer and closer to Labor Day, you're going
11:50
Speaker 1: to see the Democratic Party discover the black community with words,
11:55
Speaker 1: not deeds, not public policy. You're gonna see them rolling
11:59
Speaker 1: out those black liberal Democrats that get out on social
12:02
Speaker 1: media and just run their lips because all they're doing
12:05
Speaker 1: is getting paid by the Democratic apparatus to have black
12:08
Speaker 1: people put to speak to the lowest denominator that the
12:13
Speaker 1: white man is out here wanting to destroy you, waking
12:16
Speaker 1: up every day thinking about how he can put his
12:18
Speaker 1: foot on your neck when the reality of it is
12:21
Speaker 1: is you need to get out there, make it happen,
12:24
Speaker 1: work hard, handle your own business, and America will reward you.
12:29
Speaker 1: That doesn't mean that racism doesn't exist. Anybody listening it
12:33
Speaker 1: out there. Oh that god smitheman is just an Uncle
12:35
Speaker 1: Tom No. Because I wake up every day and raise
12:37
Speaker 1: my kids. I work very hard, really hard every day
12:41
Speaker 1: to make things happen. Yes, they're crazies out here who
12:45
Speaker 1: say crazy things from time to time, but I'm not
12:47
Speaker 1: gonna let them. I'm not gonna let them control my
12:50
Speaker 1: life and what I'm doing. But the point is that
12:53
Speaker 1: the one off things what the Democratic Party does Brian
12:56
Speaker 1: Thomas is they augmented like it's all white and white
13:01
Speaker 1: people are against Black Americans that are waking up every
13:03
Speaker 1: day trying to figure out how they can put their
13:05
Speaker 1: foot on our neck to do something. This is what
13:08
Speaker 1: the Democratic Party does right after Labor Day, that's their playbook.
13:12
Speaker 1: This is a Jerry Maguire moment. I know they're going
13:15
Speaker 1: to be talking about black lives matter. Black lives matter,
13:17
Speaker 1: and the bottom line is the Democratic Party doesn't give
13:20
Speaker 1: a about Black Americans. They don't give a crap about
13:24
Speaker 1: us until we get to the dog on election and
13:27
Speaker 1: it absolutely infuriates me. My grandfather is rolling over in
13:32
Speaker 1: his grave as the Democratic Party tries to pimp us out,
13:36
Speaker 1: like when we talk about the school board or the
13:38
Speaker 1: school levee and what's happening with thirty four thousand kids right,
13:42
Speaker 1: Lots of truancies, lots of schools that are failing. We'll
13:45
Speaker 1: get back to it, but yet again, we can't get
13:48
Speaker 1: a solid, solid public education system that really educates Black
13:54
Speaker 1: Americans in this past.
13:55
Speaker 2: Well, since he's pulling his punches this morning, we'll bring
13:58
Speaker 2: Christopher back for another segment. We'll see if we can't
13:59
Speaker 2: get him to speak what's really on his mind.
14:04
Speaker 1: The talk station.
14:07
Speaker 2: It's seven forty two right now. If anybod KR city
14:10
Speaker 2: talk station in the middle of or towards the tail
14:12
Speaker 2: end of anywhere a smith event more, you're on fire
14:14
Speaker 2: this morning, Christopher smitheman, oh, he's enjoy one night.
14:18
Speaker 1: You get fired out that wait till I give you
14:21
Speaker 1: this piece, bro.
14:21
Speaker 3: Here we go.
14:22
Speaker 1: So the kick off, the kickoff for the Labor Day
14:27
Speaker 1: weekend was the unveiling of the doctor Martin Luther King
14:30
Speaker 1: statue on the corner of Reading Road in the MLK.
14:34
Speaker 1: That's wonderful. I absolutely think it is awesome. Meaning doctor
14:40
Speaker 1: King was a conservative preacher from the South and not
14:46
Speaker 1: just as I am not a perfect person, he's not
14:48
Speaker 1: a perfect person. So let's not have anybody tell me
14:51
Speaker 1: about his his shortcomings. Here's the reality. Listen to this, Mayor,
14:58
Speaker 1: apps have nor any Democrat council had anything to do
15:01
Speaker 1: with the damn statue. Nothing. It's all my work, the
15:07
Speaker 1: guy who worked on that statue, who put the money forward,
15:12
Speaker 1: who put together the committee. This is all Mayor John Cranley.
15:17
Speaker 1: Do you think the Democrats walked up there and said,
15:20
Speaker 1: a conservative African American man in Cincinnati is responsible for
15:25
Speaker 1: this statue, had anything to do with it. No, the
15:29
Speaker 1: liberal Democrats walk up there with a ribbon and cut
15:32
Speaker 1: the ribbon and act like they had something to do
15:34
Speaker 1: with it, and it had nothing to do with them.
15:36
Speaker 1: As a matter of fact, those are the people that
15:38
Speaker 1: I struggled with to get this thing across the finish line.
15:42
Speaker 1: Anybody who's listening to me, I'm not going to do
15:44
Speaker 1: the homework. Go pull the original motion and look who
15:48
Speaker 1: signed it. I believe that council member Liz Key, I
15:53
Speaker 1: believe David Maytt.
15:57
Speaker 2: That's hilarious.
15:58
Speaker 1: Are you telling me, brother? And do you think that
16:02
Speaker 1: any Democrat up there pulled the original motion that funded
16:08
Speaker 1: the project with a million dollars ever said any of
16:11
Speaker 1: our names said that we had anything to do with it,
16:14
Speaker 1: because it doesn't fit their narrative. They can't say a
16:18
Speaker 1: Republican had something to do with this statue. They can't
16:21
Speaker 1: say that David Man, Liz Keeping, somebody like Smitherman all
16:25
Speaker 1: worked on this project. This is their work. No, they
16:28
Speaker 1: walk up to the mic and try to portray the
16:31
Speaker 1: Jerry McGuire, I love the black Man. This is my
16:34
Speaker 1: project and the city manager had nothing to do with it.
16:39
Speaker 1: Matter of fact, the people who should be commended are
16:42
Speaker 1: the Baptist Minister's Conference, which I'm going to definitely lift
16:46
Speaker 1: them up because they are the organizations that came to
16:50
Speaker 1: my office when I was the vice mayor and said, Smitherman,
16:52
Speaker 1: we gotta get this done. The smaller statue was torn down.
16:56
Speaker 1: We got to make this project happen. What they were
16:59
Speaker 1: mad about out at a certain level is that the
17:02
Speaker 1: person who was commissioned to do it wasn't black, and
17:05
Speaker 1: so they were tripping on that. You know, there's this
17:07
Speaker 1: Asian guy who's being commissioned to do it, and we
17:09
Speaker 1: got a problem where that is not a black artist.
17:12
Speaker 1: I mean, they were going through all kinds of iterations
17:14
Speaker 1: with that craziness. But at the end of the day,
17:15
Speaker 1: I just want you to know, Brian, in a most
17:18
Speaker 1: self serving way, what you see happening on TV with
17:22
Speaker 1: that Martin Luther King statue has nothing to do with
17:26
Speaker 1: mayor Aftab or any member of this council. This is
17:29
Speaker 1: a previous council that worked on this, negotiated and put
17:32
Speaker 1: the money forward, and they didn't invite one of us,
17:36
Speaker 1: none of us from the unveiling of that statue.
17:39
Speaker 2: Of course, never let a good ribbon cut and go
17:42
Speaker 2: to waste, Christopher. But more fundably, to the point about
17:45
Speaker 2: the artist, if there was an objection over that the
17:48
Speaker 2: doctor King statue that's on the mall in Washington, DC
17:52
Speaker 2: was done by a Chinese artist, if I recall correctly,
17:55
Speaker 2: I don't recall anybody complaining about that. But more fundamentally,
17:59
Speaker 2: let me ask you this serious question. Perhaps maybe some
18:03
Speaker 2: of the oppositions sprung from the fact that during this
18:05
Speaker 2: you know, black lives matter moment in time that we
18:08
Speaker 2: were all struggling with and trying to get through that
18:11
Speaker 2: maybe that his message ran a foul of that narrative,
18:15
Speaker 2: content of character, not color of skin. Was that not
18:18
Speaker 2: doctor King's message, be a good person and then the
18:22
Speaker 2: color of your skin does not matter? Well, that just
18:24
Speaker 2: undermines the entire philosophy of the left wing advocates about
18:28
Speaker 2: you know, black lives matter, and this whole idea of
18:30
Speaker 2: the systemic race and the like, doesn't it.
18:33
Speaker 1: That's it's absolutely true.
18:35
Speaker 3: It's absolutely true.
18:36
Speaker 1: And race and how they push it is incredibly complicated.
18:40
Speaker 1: And that's what I'm sharing with you.
18:42
Speaker 3: They don't even have the decency to say that.
18:45
Speaker 1: A black American made this statue happen, right, They walk
18:50
Speaker 1: up there like it's their project. We're going into Labor
18:54
Speaker 1: Day weekend. This is them kicking it off with you.
18:57
Speaker 1: Don't look they planned it so that we're going in
19:00
Speaker 1: the Labor Day weekend. This is the kickoff of saying
19:03
Speaker 1: I love the black man. Jerry McGuire, this is app
19:07
Speaker 1: tab I'm pushing this narrative. If they walked up there
19:11
Speaker 1: and put me on the mic and said here's the guy,
19:15
Speaker 1: this is the guy's motion. This is his work. And
19:18
Speaker 1: they put John Cranley up there, the white man, right,
19:21
Speaker 1: who made this thing happen, Mayor John Cranley, not Appats.
19:26
Speaker 1: If they told the narrative right, and they told the truth,
19:29
Speaker 1: then all of a sudden it makes everything look different.
19:32
Speaker 1: But that's not what they want to do. They want
19:34
Speaker 1: to act like app tab and all these black people
19:36
Speaker 1: blah blah blah made that thing happened, and they didn't.
19:39
Speaker 1: They're hiding it. And the media is so lazy that
19:43
Speaker 1: they don't just go and pull the original motion and say, hey, guys,
19:46
Speaker 1: see the statues coming up, and you didn't have anything
19:48
Speaker 1: to do with it. Where are the people who had
19:50
Speaker 1: everything to do with this thing? That's what I'm saying
19:54
Speaker 1: to you, dude. They want to change history. Everybody should
19:57
Speaker 1: understand there was a white man, his name is Mayor
20:00
Speaker 1: John Cranley, and he had everything to do with that
20:05
Speaker 1: statue showing up on that dog on. It wasn't app
20:09
Speaker 1: Tad and it wasn't any of these black democrats that
20:12
Speaker 1: are on council. And they would never ever ever want.
20:16
Speaker 3: You to know that history.
20:17
Speaker 2: That's that's funny because you know, David Mann, white guy.
20:21
Speaker 2: So you have the mayor and David Man, and then
20:24
Speaker 2: you have Liz Keening, white woman, also Republican, and then
20:28
Speaker 2: black man independent Christopher Spinnamen. Okay, do you know what
20:32
Speaker 2: that is? A bipartisan collective right there, Christopher. There's another
20:35
Speaker 2: thing that you point out too. If you didn't have
20:38
Speaker 2: independence Republicans.
20:41
Speaker 1: And pull the motions anybody that I don't even know
20:44
Speaker 1: the other two people or so who signed it at
20:46
Speaker 1: the time. It probably was Charlie Winberg too.
20:49
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, you know what I'm saying.
20:51
Speaker 1: I don't remember who. How I all I can tell
20:53
Speaker 1: you is not anybody on council sign that motion because
20:56
Speaker 1: they weren't there, and this current mayor wasn't there. It
20:59
Speaker 1: was a white man, John Cranley me the mayor. MLK
21:05
Speaker 1: statue happened, and John is so gracious he would never
21:09
Speaker 1: come and say.
21:10
Speaker 3: What I'm saying.
21:11
Speaker 1: He wouldn't be dogmatic about it.
21:13
Speaker 3: He just let them roll over the history.
21:15
Speaker 1: But I'm telling you, to your community, to your listening audience,
21:18
Speaker 1: this is what the Democrats do. They lie, they cheat,
21:23
Speaker 1: they don't tell you all the information, and they are
21:26
Speaker 1: Black Americans walking around thinking apps app created a statue
21:29
Speaker 1: for MLK and he's our man when he's really just
21:32
Speaker 1: pimping out our work and and stealing our homework, like
21:36
Speaker 1: a little kid who looks off my homework assignment and
21:39
Speaker 1: then says it's theirs.
21:40
Speaker 3: He's a cheater, That's what he is.
21:44
Speaker 1: And and this is why race is so complicated, because
21:47
Speaker 1: and whyatt was so important to acknowledge John Cranley. That's
21:51
Speaker 1: what unifies us by saying John Slanley was the mayor
21:55
Speaker 1: and allowing him to speak and talk about why this
21:57
Speaker 1: was important to him when he was the mayor, because
21:59
Speaker 1: you know, he's the he's the concert. He doesn't vote
22:02
Speaker 1: on the budget, but he's the person that's directing the budget.
22:06
Speaker 1: So you cannot roll over John Friendly. And he was
22:09
Speaker 1: a white guy who thought the MLK statue was important
22:13
Speaker 1: and this would be an important message for everybody to tell.
22:16
Speaker 1: But we don't want to do that. We want to
22:18
Speaker 1: act like he dropped out of the skies, had nothing
22:20
Speaker 1: to do with the people that are there.
22:21
Speaker 2: Some may be arguing right now Christopher screaming at the radio,
22:24
Speaker 2: Well that was uh, that was his opportunity, uh to
22:28
Speaker 2: say I love the black man at that moment in time, I'm.
22:32
Speaker 1: Just about job. Yeah, well, let's just telling you.
22:38
Speaker 3: Here's what I'm meaning. Here's no no, it's.
22:40
Speaker 1: A it's a fair comment. But because he's silent on
22:43
Speaker 1: the issue, because he's not out there trying to take
22:46
Speaker 1: credit for it, right, it was an opportunity for this
22:50
Speaker 1: mayor to say, the previous administration, the previous mayor, Patrick Gahaney,
22:56
Speaker 1: these were the people that made all of this happen,
22:59
Speaker 1: and we just want to thank them for it. Right.
23:02
Speaker 1: But what they do is they want to racially charge
23:04
Speaker 1: this crap and act like white people didn't have anything
23:06
Speaker 1: to do with that statue. That is my point, right,
23:09
Speaker 1: They bipartisan. This was a bipartisan politically Republicans, Democrats, Independents,
23:16
Speaker 1: Black Americans, white Americans who signed on that motion to
23:20
Speaker 1: put a million dollars forward in order to make that
23:23
Speaker 1: statue happen and to create the committee that was put
23:26
Speaker 1: together to do it all.
23:27
Speaker 2: I'm saying, I'm glad you set the record very clearly
23:30
Speaker 2: straight here this morning, Christopher Smith, and will do this
23:32
Speaker 2: again next Monday. God bless you.
