• 0:23
  Speaker 3: of his father Sean McMahon, who I just found out,
• 0:25
  Speaker 3: much to my chagrin, but my happiness for him overwhelms
• 0:29
  Speaker 3: my feeling of loss. Shawn's moving on. I guess one

• 0:55
  Speaker 3: here in the morning show.
• 0:55
  Speaker 4: Hey, as always, thank you so much for having me.
• 0:58
  Speaker 4: I am very excited to be in studio today.
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: It's great to be able to see someone and talk
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: to them rather than doing over the punk clarity.
• 1:05
  Speaker 4: Isn't tell me you've got to get windows in here, man, Yeah, right,
• 1:08
  Speaker 4: at least put some scenery on these TVs in here.
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: I have one, two, three, four, five TVs. They're all
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: like one of them on one of them. The other
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: ones haven't ever been on. To the best of my knowledge,
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: I don't even know why they're there. Yeah, what's the
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: point of it.
• 1:22
  Speaker 4: We need to get Joe to try to put some
• 1:24
  Speaker 4: like scenery up, mountains up or something.
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: I just serve as a distraction.
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: It's just it's they're just there, I think, just filling
• 1:30
  Speaker 3: up space on the wall. I'd rather have artwork on
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: the wall something like that. Anyway, Corey Bowman didn't come
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: in to talk about the studio and its architecture and
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: in style. You came in and talk about matters going
• 1:38
  Speaker 3: on the downtown Cincinnati area. And we do have some
• 1:40
  Speaker 3: things to talk about. Shocking literally no one. Of course,
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: Corey has a business downtown, King's Arms Coffee. You've got
• 1:46
  Speaker 3: a church downtown, and you are a resident of the
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: city of Cincinnati. You ran for mayor of the City
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: of Cincinnati, and sadly, the turnout was so low and miserable.
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: The only people showed up were the ones that are
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: back in the current council and the current mayor. So
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: elections certainly have concert and we are now living the
• 2:01
  Speaker 3: consequences of Uh well, let's start with the mayor after
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: have Purvo. He's a photo op guy. You'll show up
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: photo ops unless, of course, a real big issue comes up,
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: in which case he is nowhere to be found. But
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: you had an experience with this very phenomenon this week.
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 2:16
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Well, so Tuesday afternoon, I was covering a shift
• 2:19
  Speaker 4: at my coffee shop, and you know, we were talking
• 2:22
  Speaker 4: about painting earlier, how painting's therapeutic for me. Nothing's more
• 2:26
  Speaker 4: therapeutic for me than making an espresso shot as well
• 2:29
  Speaker 4: in serving customers in the West Side.
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah.
• 2:31
  Speaker 4: But as I'm there, you know, I'm following all the
• 2:34
  Speaker 4: events that are happening within probably two blocks away from
• 2:37
  Speaker 4: our coffee shop. Uh there's a large crowd because they're
• 2:41
  Speaker 4: renaming Bank Street, and so when they renamed it to
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: Mallory Street. Right now, it's after the former mayor. Uh No,
• 2:50
  Speaker 4: actually after the father, Yeah, the senior. Oh okay, yeah,
• 2:53
  Speaker 4: so it's I believe William Mallory c h Yeah yeah, yeah.
• 2:57
  Speaker 4: So it was a great event. This isn't me talking
• 2:59
  Speaker 4: about about the street.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: No, no, no, I see, I wasn't aware of who was
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: being yeah.
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: Yeah, and miss Fanny was there and every family was there.
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: I actually went by afterwards congratulated the family. You know,
• 3:09
  Speaker 4: I've I've known the family only for a short amount
• 3:12
  Speaker 4: of time, but I'm very cordial with them. They're a
• 3:14
  Speaker 4: great family. So but to say that half of city
• 3:19
  Speaker 4: council was there, right, and it was all for photo ops.
• 3:22
  Speaker 4: They had all the because I ran the political campaign,
• 3:25
  Speaker 4: I know, you've got preemptively planned for photographers, for news
• 3:29
  Speaker 4: agencies and for everybody to be there.
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 3:32
  Speaker 4: So this is what I saw was that at that
• 3:34
  Speaker 4: specific event, the county Commissioner and half city Council, including
• 3:39
  Speaker 4: jam Michelle and Sky Johnson were all there and it
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: was all big, you know, celebration. Well, then at City Hall,
• 3:46
  Speaker 4: which is less than two miles away, you had the mayor,
• 3:49
  Speaker 4: you had prosecutor, County Pillage, and then you had the
• 3:54
  Speaker 4: other half of city council. I believe the Clerk of
• 3:56
  Speaker 4: Courts was there as well, and they're all there supporting
• 4:00
  Speaker 4: planned parenthood because there was a fire that happened at
• 4:03
  Speaker 4: their facility and so this would be a major national story,
• 4:07
  Speaker 4: and so they've got to be there at City Hall
• 4:09
  Speaker 4: steps supporting that, and the photographers, news agencies. Everything is there,
• 4:15
  Speaker 4: Everything is planned accordingly, right. Well, I kid you not,
• 4:18
  Speaker 4: because I was looking at the time stamps of everything.
• 4:21
  Speaker 4: Both of these events were happening after two pm, just
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: after two pm. Well, another thing happened just after two
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: pm less than a mile to two miles away from
• 4:31
  Speaker 4: both of these events, right in OTR A teen got
• 4:35
  Speaker 4: shot openly in the street. And we see the videos,
• 4:38
  Speaker 4: actually you can see the videos posted on Signal ninety nine.
• 4:42
  Speaker 4: But it's literally teens opening fire in the middle of
• 4:46
  Speaker 4: the street, less than a city block away from Liberty,
• 4:51
  Speaker 4: a major street in Cincinnati, and with that nothing being addressed.
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: And that to me is just.
• 4:58
  Speaker 4: A picture of what goes on a lot of times
• 5:02
  Speaker 4: from City Hall, is that we're there for the photo ops.
• 5:04
  Speaker 4: Meanwhile the city is getting shot.
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: At, and I mean, what better opportunity to address the
• 5:10
  Speaker 3: obvious concerns the residents of the city have about crime.
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: Perception is everything, you know, if people perceive the crime
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: to be bad, I don't care what your statistics say,
• 5:19
  Speaker 3: and people perceive the crime is bad. We've made national
• 5:22
  Speaker 3: attention with these street takeovers, made national attention with the beatdowns.
• 5:25
  Speaker 3: We've made national attention for crime after crime. It's on
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: and on and on. Oh look, planned parenthood got burned
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: a little bit. Make national attention for that. That's a crime.
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: But at each of these criminal opportunities, I would think
• 5:38
  Speaker 3: that a mayor or council who cares about and wants
• 5:42
  Speaker 3: to address the perception of the problems, perception that we
• 5:46
  Speaker 3: have a bad crime, they would go there, there's been
• 5:49
  Speaker 3: another shooting. I'm standing in downtown over the ride, and
• 5:56
  Speaker 3: say we're on this. This cannot be tolerated. We want
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: greater law enforcement presence, we want accountability by the judges.
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: Of course they don't really want that now, so they're
• 6:05
  Speaker 3: not going to gravitate to an event that might serve
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: to benefit the citizen. Well, at least the mayor sounds
• 6:10
  Speaker 3: like he's on it. Is better than we know. The
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: mayor is not on it.
• 6:14
  Speaker 4: Well, it's like running the campaign last year. You start
• 6:19
  Speaker 4: realizing looking behind the scenes. There's a very big difference
• 6:22
  Speaker 4: between playing politics versus actually serving the city in the
• 6:26
  Speaker 4: position that you were elected to do. And it's sad
• 6:29
  Speaker 4: to say that they play politics more than the actual
• 6:33
  Speaker 4: job that they were elected to serve. You know, when
• 6:35
  Speaker 4: it comes to national issues, all very vocal. We're very
• 6:38
  Speaker 4: vocal about national issues. We're very vocal about all these
• 6:42
  Speaker 4: things that happen, whether it be with the illegal immigration issues,
• 6:45
  Speaker 4: whether it be with ice, or whether it be with
• 6:47
  Speaker 4: Planned parenthood, because that wasn't just about a local facility
• 6:51
  Speaker 4: that was about the abortion issue, because it's a national
• 6:54
  Speaker 4: political agenda, and so whatever side that you're on, I
• 6:58
  Speaker 4: think that the citizens Cincinnati overall are tired of the
• 7:03
  Speaker 4: local officials just trying to play national politics because that
• 7:08
  Speaker 4: just shows us you're just trying to use this as
• 7:09
  Speaker 4: a stepping stool.
• 7:10
  Speaker 3: Well, I agree with you, But of all the national
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: political issues that you might want to show up for
• 7:17
  Speaker 3: a photo op on, I think the whole abortion things
• 7:21
  Speaker 3: over here. Didn't the state of Ohio vote and approve
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: abortion pretty much at any time, and that no longer
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: is a problem. Planned Parenthood is not going to get
• 7:32
  Speaker 3: shut down.
• 7:33
  Speaker 4: Well, here's the thing, No matter what that is, you
• 7:35
  Speaker 4: have to still make a statement to show what side
• 7:37
  Speaker 4: of the aisle that your your abortion creds exactly. You
• 7:40
  Speaker 4: have to because okay, so there's our newest congressman, our
• 7:45
  Speaker 4: newest or not news congressman, our newest who knows he
• 7:48
  Speaker 4: might be vying for that, but our newest council member.
• 7:51
  Speaker 4: He's from the West End, Ryan James, right, and I
• 7:54
  Speaker 4: believe that he's actually got ties with Dayton Street and
• 7:56
  Speaker 4: everything with residents. My understanding from what I heard was
• 8:00
  Speaker 4: that he was trying to bring more money to the
• 8:03
  Speaker 4: West End for businesses on Lynch Street.
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: Well.
• 8:07
  Speaker 4: Tied in with this legislation was added funding for legal
• 8:11
  Speaker 4: immigration or legal immigrants in the city. My understanding was
• 8:15
  Speaker 4: that wasn't the intention, but because the powers that be
• 8:18
  Speaker 4: in the Democratic Party shoved it down the throat of
• 8:21
  Speaker 4: the legislation, well then what happens That becomes the story
• 8:24
  Speaker 4: because it's all about being on that national stage. When
• 8:27
  Speaker 4: a presidential candidate from Michigan comes into town, the mayor
• 8:31
  Speaker 4: is right there. But when a kid gets shot off
• 8:33
  Speaker 4: of Liberty Street, the mayor isn't there.
• 8:35
  Speaker 3: So let me get a grasp on this. The city
• 8:39
  Speaker 3: taxpayers are funding services for illegal immigrants.
• 8:44
  Speaker 4: Now yeah, I mean so that was a resolution that
• 8:47
  Speaker 4: they put out and so, but the thing is is
• 8:50
  Speaker 4: that it's just if you're of the mindset that this
• 8:55
  Speaker 4: is to help the people of Cincinnati, then you're mistaken,
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: because this is all just to make national headlines to
• 9:01
  Speaker 4: show what your credentials are on these national issues.
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: But that fails to acknowledge in the upfront statement, should
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: be amid a thirty million dollars budget shortfall the city
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: of Cincinnati, and it's infinite wisdom not decided to expand
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: and start spending money on illegal immigrants who shouldn't be
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: here anyway because they are not lawfully in our country.
• 9:25
  Speaker 4: Do we have time for one more comment? So here's
• 9:28
  Speaker 4: one thing I noticed, all right, we were making such
• 9:31
  Speaker 4: a ruckus about the mayoral election right now, according to
• 9:36
  Speaker 4: all the previous data, you know, there's no shot, right,
• 9:39
  Speaker 4: but from a news aspect and from the exposure that
• 9:44
  Speaker 4: they were getting, right, there was a lot of people
• 9:47
  Speaker 4: that were afraid.
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: Behind the scenes.
• 9:49
  Speaker 4: One of the number one contributors to that race on
• 9:52
  Speaker 4: the other side was the Democratic National Convention or the
• 9:55
  Speaker 4: Democrat State Party. The reason why is because That's what
• 9:59
  Speaker 4: can trolls and pulls all the strings is the state
• 10:02
  Speaker 4: and the national politics of everything. And they got to
• 10:05
  Speaker 4: make sure that every one of these cities follow suits
• 10:08
  Speaker 4: so that they look like a united front. Forget about
• 10:10
  Speaker 4: the local potholes, forget about the local shootings, forget about
• 10:14
  Speaker 4: the local deficits that we have in our budget, forget
• 10:17
  Speaker 4: about the NGOs and nonprofits and everybody that the money
• 10:20
  Speaker 4: is getting funneled into. As long as on the national stage,
• 10:23
  Speaker 4: we all look like a united front and we all
• 10:25
  Speaker 4: look like we're on CNN and MSNBC, Well, then we're
• 10:28
  Speaker 4: doing our job. And that is why people are sick
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: of city government.
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: That's why I wish more people would come out and vote.
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: I wish more people even had a grasp of the
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: boiled down concept that you just presented. Just oblivious. I'm
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: just convinced, absolutely oblivious.
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: Don't go away.
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: We got more with Corey Boyman, Courry Bowman before we
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: get to Jack winsor the bottom there from the High
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: Press Network, and I get to tell you and strongly
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: encourage you to check out galaxyconcretecoding dot com. I love
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: what they did to my daughter's na Eric's patio. It
• 10:57
  Speaker 3: looked terrible, and this is why mom and dad got
• 11:00
  Speaker 3: said Galaxy Concrete Coatings to the rescue and now kids

  Speaker 3: that is a great thing. The Galaxy Concrete Coatings is
• 11:14
  Speaker 3: just a beautiful transformation of the dull, ugly, boring, and
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: sometimes tragically messed up concrete. Like the patio had a
• 11:22
  Speaker 3: big crack through it and it was painted a prior
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: color and that it was flaking off, so it had
• 11:26
  Speaker 3: this hodgepodge, a kind of reddish pain nasty. Now it
• 11:29
  Speaker 3: is beautiful, and that's what your concrete coating can look like.
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: Is where your concrete service can look like as well.

• 12:02
  Speaker 3: Do you know the signs of age? T G I
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: S tay twenty here fifty about KRC detalk station, A
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: cyh relief and a smile of packinesses wonderful world if
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: you're looking in the right place, as I always point out,
• 12:34
  Speaker 3: because we're talking about city matters matters with Corey Bowman,
• 12:37
  Speaker 3: former Merril candidate, and of course when you're talking about
• 12:39
  Speaker 3: city matters matters, you're usually talking about dysfunction. Talked about
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: a little of the dysfunction in the last segment, but
• 12:44
  Speaker 3: you actually said this morning before we went on the air,
• 12:48
  Speaker 3: do you had something positive to talk about, Corey Bowman
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: with regard to matters of the city of Cincinnati and
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: political and otherwise there's something good going on?
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: Well at least you think so. Yeah.
• 13:00
  Speaker 4: Well, I mean before politics, I was a relatively positive person.
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah.
• 13:06
  Speaker 4: The thing is is that if you don't find the
• 13:09
  Speaker 4: bright side and things right, if you don't find something
• 13:12
  Speaker 4: good to say, then you know the old saying used
• 13:15
  Speaker 4: to be, then don't say it at all.
• 13:16
  Speaker 3: Well, that should talk to Trump about matter, dealing with
• 13:19
  Speaker 3: the pope or something. You know, you're a minister, you
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: know all about matter. If you I'm no theologian, you are.
• 13:24
  Speaker 3: So there are things that I wouldn't touch with the
• 13:27
  Speaker 3: ten foot polls a politician, because why would you want
• 13:29
  Speaker 3: to go down that road? And that's a road that
• 13:32
  Speaker 3: I would never choose to go down. But anyway, I
• 13:34
  Speaker 3: don't want to be critical of Trump because a lot
• 13:35
  Speaker 3: of my listials be mad at me because I can
• 13:38
  Speaker 3: be critical of Trump anyway. I'm sorry to interject that thought,
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: but you go ahead the positive.
• 13:42
  Speaker 4: Yeah, well, so I think in this world that we're
• 13:44
  Speaker 4: living in it it's obviously very polarizing, right we're taking
• 13:48
  Speaker 4: one side or the other. But I feel like if
• 13:51
  Speaker 4: you actually see a positive thing in what you're doing
• 13:54
  Speaker 4: or the voices that were putting out there, if you
• 13:57
  Speaker 4: see results, even if it's like a slight bit, then hey,
• 14:01
  Speaker 4: at least rejoice in those and just use that as
• 14:05
  Speaker 4: motivation to continue to keep on going.
• 14:07
  Speaker 3: Like, for example, I complained for decades about Sunset being
• 14:11
  Speaker 3: the worst road in the city and over and over,
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: and then one day, lo and behold it was paved, yeap,
• 14:17
  Speaker 3: and there's no way in hell, I'm gonna take credit
• 14:20
  Speaker 3: for that, But part of me wanted to say, maybe
• 14:21
  Speaker 3: they just did it to get me that shut the hell.
• 14:24
  Speaker 4: Hey, we've talked about this, we need to advocate to
• 14:27
  Speaker 4: that road gets just called Brian Thomas drive.
• 14:30
  Speaker 3: Well, you know, no council member or the mail would
• 14:32
  Speaker 3: show up for that ribbon cutting ceremony.
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: You can make book or I'm mad anyway, though.
• 14:36
  Speaker 4: But what I would say, so you know, there was
• 14:38
  Speaker 4: a moment where we had a shooting take place, I
• 14:42
  Speaker 4: believe several months ago, and the mayor did make a
• 14:45
  Speaker 4: response to it, and the mayor did call for justice,
• 14:49
  Speaker 4: and he did say that the person that received a
• 14:53
  Speaker 4: low bond at the time should not be on the streets.
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: That's progress. That's progress.
• 14:59
  Speaker 4: Now a lot of people will immediately because we're just
• 15:01
  Speaker 4: geared to say, hey, we always go against that person, right,
• 15:04
  Speaker 4: So they'll say, oh, he's just saying that for politics.
• 15:07
  Speaker 4: I don't care why he says it, And then I'm
• 15:08
  Speaker 4: glad that it was said.
• 15:09
  Speaker 3: Right, that's my point on your earlier issue on that exactly,
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: get over to the crime scene and start pro police talking,
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: talk about embracing and helping the police patrol your community.
• 15:18
  Speaker 3: It's a simple photo op and it sounds like you're
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: on the game and on the job.
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: Absolutely.
• 15:23
  Speaker 4: So last night there was a town hall meeting at
• 15:26
  Speaker 4: Rothenberg Elementary, which is right next to the shooting that
• 15:30
  Speaker 4: took place. Now this is pre planned and everything, but
• 15:32
  Speaker 4: you had interim Chief Henny there, you had the mayor there,
• 15:36
  Speaker 4: and you had a council bid Scottie Johnson there, I
• 15:39
  Speaker 4: believe a couple other council members as well. But in
• 15:42
  Speaker 4: listening to the wording and listening to what they were saying,
• 15:46
  Speaker 4: I realized that many of the points that we were
• 15:49
  Speaker 4: making over last year and even that we are continuing
• 15:52
  Speaker 4: to make today, that they're changing their warding, they're changing
• 15:55
  Speaker 4: their perspective to know. So, for instance, one of the
• 15:58
  Speaker 4: biggest issues that we addressed last year was the Hyde
• 16:00
  Speaker 4: Park issue.
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: Right, oh yeah, there's Park.
• 16:03
  Speaker 4: Square Hide Park Square, the actual residence of Hyde Park
• 16:07
  Speaker 4: made a huge deal. And I don't mean that in like,
• 16:10
  Speaker 4: oh they were wrong in that, but they were overwhelmingly
• 16:13
  Speaker 4: against a variance that was taking for development, and the
• 16:17
  Speaker 4: city was basically saying, hey, no, we're not going to
• 16:20
  Speaker 4: listen to the residents. We're going to continue on with
• 16:23
  Speaker 4: this variance because basically, big me, little U, right, and
• 16:28
  Speaker 4: what they were talking about last night, there was a
• 16:30
  Speaker 4: certain segment where they were talking about housing and development
• 16:33
  Speaker 4: in bond Hill. Now many people are upset about that.
• 16:36
  Speaker 4: It's just bond Hill didn't have the resources that Hyde
• 16:38
  Speaker 4: Park did to fight it. Well, I specifically heard Sky Johnson,
• 16:42
  Speaker 4: councilman Sky Johnson talk about how we need to actively
• 16:46
  Speaker 4: involve the community in all future developments, that we it
• 16:49
  Speaker 4: cannot be big me, little U anymore, that we've got
• 16:52
  Speaker 4: to involve community councils and the opinions to see, hey,
• 16:56
  Speaker 4: what do.
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: You want here?
• 16:58
  Speaker 4: This is words that he was actually saying, what do
• 17:00
  Speaker 4: you want here?
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: What do you need here?
• 17:02
  Speaker 3: Well, you mean to tell me that Scottie Johnson discovered
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: the realities of representative government and what it is to
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: be a member of representative government being the representative of
• 17:14
  Speaker 3: the will.
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: Of the people. Shocking concept. Welcome to the party. Now.
• 17:18
  Speaker 4: It's good to note that Sky Johnson and James schel
• 17:21
  Speaker 4: Kearney were the only council members that actually vote against
• 17:24
  Speaker 4: that variance, So they were actually from the start wanting
• 17:28
  Speaker 4: to go with the credits right. So like I said, credit,
• 17:31
  Speaker 4: where credits do the mayor? I give him credit.
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: He was there.
• 17:34
  Speaker 4: He was in a seat, very uncomfortable because he's right
• 17:36
  Speaker 4: in front of a people in the community and he's
• 17:40
  Speaker 4: talking about issues. Specifically, they were talking about the crime
• 17:44
  Speaker 4: rates and he right there, right next to Interim chief.
• 17:47
  Speaker 4: They were talking about solutions. Now, a lot of their
• 17:49
  Speaker 4: solutions aren't things that I actually agree with, because I
• 17:52
  Speaker 4: believe that it starts with the criminals. I believe that
• 17:56
  Speaker 4: it starts with the people and accountability. I believe that
• 17:58
  Speaker 4: it starts with a judicial system that holds them accountable
• 18:02
  Speaker 4: in the judges. But he was continuing to talk about
• 18:06
  Speaker 4: the gun issue, and he was basically, it's like, we
• 18:09
  Speaker 4: need to have a vendetta against guns. Well, listen, I'm
• 18:12
  Speaker 4: in the inner city, all right. I speak with the community.
• 18:16
  Speaker 4: I you know, when we're in the community, the gun
• 18:19
  Speaker 4: advocates are in the inner city. I'm not talking about
• 18:22
  Speaker 4: illegal gun ownership. I'm talking about Second Amendment rights. And
• 18:26
  Speaker 4: so when you talk about that, many people in the
• 18:29
  Speaker 4: downtown area actually believe in that because they need to
• 18:32
  Speaker 4: be protected.
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: Exactly, you're in a damn war zone.
• 18:35
  Speaker 3: You need the great equalizers because you're more likely to
• 18:38
  Speaker 3: be shot at in downtown sincey anyplace elf, So it'd
• 18:41
  Speaker 3: be nice to be able to defend yourself.
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: And that's what the second moment's for.
• 18:43
  Speaker 4: My point would be that stop trying to blame the
• 18:46
  Speaker 4: inadamate objects of guns and start blaming the people, the criminals,
• 18:51
  Speaker 4: and let's have a judicial system that works to keep
• 18:54
  Speaker 4: people safe and keeping the small amount of criminals off
• 18:58
  Speaker 4: the streets.
• 18:58
  Speaker 3: Well, there's that, and then going back to the whole
• 19:00
  Speaker 3: national focus issue, that's a national anti section eventing. Yeah, exactly,
• 19:05
  Speaker 3: because we all know there ain't no home rule. You
• 19:08
  Speaker 3: can't have an ordinance of the city since say, regulating
• 19:11
  Speaker 3: guns beyond what is on the books in the state
• 19:13
  Speaker 3: of Ohio and is equally applicable everywhere you go. Bend
• 19:16
  Speaker 3: down that road. Don't file another lawsuit, or rather, don't
• 19:18
  Speaker 3: engage in another litigation because you think it's important to
• 19:21
  Speaker 3: go ahead and show a virtue signal because we bend
• 19:24
  Speaker 3: bump stocks or whatever, that's gonna get overturned.
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: You can't do that. Stop it, Quit talking about it.
• 19:31
  Speaker 4: I think it's worth mentioning too, because we are currently
• 19:35
  Speaker 4: in voting season right now. There's no longer election day.
• 19:38
  Speaker 4: There's election season because you can vote for thirty days now.
• 19:42
  Speaker 4: We're in an early voting right now for our primaries.
• 19:45
  Speaker 4: I can't emphasize this enough. Locally, there's a lot of
• 19:48
  Speaker 4: state races, there are a lot of things going on
• 19:50
  Speaker 4: this year. But locally, Susan Luken, who is running against
• 19:53
  Speaker 4: Judge Bloom, which is the it's the juvenile court system. Okay,
• 19:58
  Speaker 4: people need to get by Susan because that is a
• 20:02
  Speaker 4: major issue in downtown Cincinnati, is youth violence and we
• 20:05
  Speaker 4: are not holding people, and we're not holding not only
• 20:09
  Speaker 4: youth but the parents. It's accountable as well. Susan Lucan,
• 20:12
  Speaker 4: I really believe, is the person that we need to
• 20:14
  Speaker 4: give on that bench to be able to at least
• 20:16
  Speaker 4: move things forward in the right direction.
• 20:18
