Speaker 1 (00:07):
On us continue Bill cunning in the Great American of course.
Jeff crue Air is a radio talk show host and
e columnist and an author headquartered unfortunately in New Orleans,
with a fantastic mayor there. We like to trade a mayor.
We'll trade peerrival for the disaster in New Orleans and
have a city council member to be named later. But nonetheless,
Jeff crue Air, welcome again to the Bill Cunningham Show.
(00:28):
I want to get some perspective because Cincinnati once again
has been the national headlines about a beatdown that happened
three o'clock in the morning after a cool jazz festival,
and the city, my city of Cincinnati, like yours New Orleans,
have had some difficulties recently with crime. But from an
outside perspective, what do you process happened in Cincinnati And
how big of a black eye.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
Do we have?
Speaker 3 (00:50):
Oh? I think it's a big black eye. Bill.
Speaker 4 (00:52):
Sorry to say it reminds me of what goes on
down here. Total dysfunction and competent leadership, embarrass me, embarrassing statements,
too few police officers, I mean the council member who
said that these victims deserve the beatings.
Speaker 3 (01:09):
I mean, that is atrocious, atrocious. Bill.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
You know, her name's Victoria Parks. She's not just a
council member. She's viewed as the conscience of Cincinnati City Council.
She's the president pro tem of the City Council. And
everybody has a bad day now and then, but a
couple of days later, upon somber reflections, she said exactly
the same thing. And I said that because they begged
for it, she said, quote they beg for that beat down.
(01:34):
I'm going, what, this is a leader. This isn't some schlep.
Victoria Parks is the leader, and she's hunkering down. The
last week. You can't find her with a search warrant.
And that's similar. And also you're Colin points it out
right now, the president is ready to federalize once again.
Washington d C. Staffers are being beaten up shots in
(01:55):
the street. There was one staffer working for the president
that tried to help a woman whose car was being
carjacked and got beat down by ten youths, misguide at youths,
almost killed. And what happened is Cincinnati is common. Why
let me ask you the big question earlier, Jeff Kert
why is this happening? And every major American couty.
Speaker 4 (02:14):
Because every major American city is run by democrats. Every
major American city has these socialist policies.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
They do not work.
Speaker 4 (02:23):
They never have worked. Nowhere do they work foreign countries
in our country, and it just leads to failure. And
the people in these communities, African American voters, Liberal white voters,
others keep voting for the same ridiculous types of policies,
and these cities keep getting worse. More people leave, fewer
(02:44):
police officers want to serve. You know, city functions are
not handled properly. There's total incompetence throughout the city. I
mean we have it here. We're suffering from an outmigration
in New Orleans, Bill because you know, people are leaving
for safer air and ones with better economy. So it's
happening everywhere.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
Is it accountability? Because I made this point. In the
nineteen twenties, thirties, and forties and fifties, there were present
documentaries about prison life. I can recall movies and other
You go into America's prisons in the nineteen forties and fifties,
and those in prison generally represented the racial composition of
(03:25):
the population. It was rare to have the majority of
prisoners being black in major American cities, believe it or not,
because Black families were functional.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
White families were functional.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
And when I look at the incarceration rates in the thirties, forties,
and fifties, they were low because there was functional families.
Something happened that metastasized like a virus in the black community,
because that is not traditionally true in the black community.
With fathers and mothers president in the home. Walter Williams,
my good friend before he passed away, and Thomas Solahan
(03:58):
on a lot. They grew up an environment. Walter Williams
grew up in Philadelphia in the nineteen fifties in what
she lived in black neighborhoods because of the codes. But
he said, we didn't have keys to the door. There
wasn't any violence, There weren't any guns present. What happened
in every major American city controlled by the Democratic Party,
and look at the results, And I think it's caused
(04:18):
by policy.
Speaker 4 (04:19):
Correct, Well, it's caused by the Great Society. I mean,
I think everything changed when those Great Society policies were
implemented in the sixties, and then he went from the
black family, where seventy five percent of the households were
intact with a mother and a father to now it's
just a reverse. Seventy five percent of the families do
not have a mother and father at home. You don't
(04:41):
have those role models, you don't have that discipline, you
don't have that structure.
Speaker 3 (04:46):
So they've destroyed.
Speaker 4 (04:48):
The black family. These policies which supposedly to help those impoverished,
it actually has destroyed communities and led to the violence,
led to the crime, led to the problems in public
education and everything that we see in our big cities,
and it's everywhere, Bill, I mean, you know out.
Speaker 3 (05:07):
In the West, the East, the Midwest, the.
Speaker 4 (05:10):
South, all of our big cities run by Democrats have
the same problems. High crime, horrible education, horrible infrastructure, horrible services,
and unfortunately a lot of people that aren't working. Yes,
that's how that leads to what happened the other night
in Cincinnati.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Now you have in your column, which I hate to
see Cincinnati getting such horrible publicity, But everything is accurate.
But New York City, whether it's New York City, and
can you imagine, Mom, Donnie the Kami Mom Donnie taken
over at New York City. You are talking about this
in your column, about what he is proposing, and now
he wants to round the corner kind of ignore it
till he gets into office.
Speaker 2 (05:46):
Then it's going to be different.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
You say, he's a socialist who's called for defunding the police,
disbanding the Strategic Response Group, which is domestic violence, that
kind of stuff, labeled the police department wicked and corrupt
as all his races, and his advocated re allocation of
the money to the place towards social services.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
And he's going to do it.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
In other words, he's going to back down a little
bit to get elected. But after he gets elected, away
we go in New York City is going to look
like Portland or Bangladesh.
Speaker 4 (06:16):
And then more the folks who have memes are going
to leave New York City. So where's he going to
get the money to pay for all these services? He
wants to make New York City the trans capital of
the world, having all these people come there for trans surgeries.
How's he going to pay for all that? I mean,
he's going to destroy the economy there in New York.
Nobody's going to want to stay there with the communist policies.
Speaker 3 (06:38):
I mean, and yesterday you.
Speaker 4 (06:39):
Had Elizabeth Warren Pocahontas. They are campaigning with him. So
I guess the left wing of the Democratic Party is.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
Embracing this guy.
Speaker 4 (06:46):
They're thinking that that's the direction they need to go,
which is why I think they're so out of step
with the American people. American people do not want this.
It doesn't work. Yeah, that's the direction they're going. They
didn't learn anything from the twenty twenty four election. They
didn't mob they didn't move to the center, which is
what they should have done.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
They move further to the left.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
Bill it's kind of like a government program. If it fails,
spend more money. And if some policy doesn't work, certainly
embrace it. Now you talk about the trans policy, this
is something Mam Donnie wants to do. He wants to
New York City to be the trans capital of the world,
not just free trans surgeries. He wants to pay for
the airfare of individuals coming New York City. He wants
(07:27):
to pay for the hotel rooms plus one hundred dollars
a day stipend in order to handle their food and
keep them there for several weeks during the post treatment
phase of the trans capital of the world instead of
the financial capital of the world, which is going to
cause more and more functional New Yorkers to leave, which
is already happening. And you also claim in your column
(07:47):
New York's taxes need to be raised. According to Mamdannie,
the city government should operate his own grocery stores like
in Nevana, and his support of seizing the means of production,
which is pure and simple communism. It reminds me of
Zeuela twenty twenty five years ago. Before Chavez et cetera,
Venezuela was the richest country in South America. Now they're
the poorest because they took over. They they used socialism
(08:11):
to take it over. And where's it work? Can you
give me an example, certainly not the Scandinavian countries where
these socialists say, you know what, We're going to bring
socialism to your city, to your town, to your state,
and we'll give you all these examples where it's worked before.
Speaker 4 (08:25):
Where has it worked well? I mean they've destroyed Cuba.
I mean Dan in Cuba they're using vehicles from the
nineteen fifties. I mean, they have a very very poor
economy there.
Speaker 3 (08:38):
Venezuela, as you said, it used to.
Speaker 4 (08:39):
Be a very rich country. They've destroyed the Venezuela. North Korea,
I mean, look at the difference between North Korea and
South Korea. South Korea's vibrant. North Korea has starvation. I
visited East Germany one time. Bill and I went over
the line to East Germany. Everybody was depressed. The grocery stores.
Speaker 3 (08:58):
Had nothing in them. It was like gray.
Speaker 4 (09:01):
And then you cross over the wall and you go
into the West German vibrant, lots of activity, capitalism.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
I mean, the difference is.
Speaker 4 (09:10):
Incredible between communists and capitalists. But these democrats want to
move in the direction of a failed system.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
They have never worked anywhere.
Speaker 1 (09:19):
Just let's break this down, because I can't imagine a
more failed political experiment than liberal democrats morphing into progressives,
morphing into Marxists, then morphing into a communist than what
I see in every major American city control by the
Democratic Party. The only big city controlled by a Republican
(09:39):
is Marsrez in Miami, and that's functional. But I live
in Cincinnati, you live in New Orleans. I can't imagine
more failed city policies than in Cincinnati and New Orleans.
So in New Orleans is at the Stockholm syndrome. What
is it that causes black voters to take on the
attributes of their captors? The Democratic Party is the party
(10:02):
of slavery, the ku Klux Klan, It's the party of lynchings.
It's the party of failed public schools and terrible law enforcement.
So why do voters who dominate the Democrat Now I
think black females vote ninety five percent for Democrats and
there's no vision of holding them accountable for failed policies
simply move on. In Cincinnati, we had four council members
(10:24):
a couple of three years ago go to federal prison
for bribes. So the Democratic parties strew up put four
more in there similarly, and they're enacting the same policies.
Why do failed policies not be held accountable by Democratic
voters in New Orleans, Portland, Cincinnati, Austin, Atlanta?
Speaker 2 (10:40):
Why does that happen?
Speaker 3 (10:42):
You know, you make a great point.
Speaker 4 (10:43):
I mean, you would think the voters would wake up
and say, hey, we got to stop voting for this because.
Speaker 3 (10:47):
It doesn't work here.
Speaker 4 (10:49):
In New Orleans, one of the leading candidates for mayor
did go to jail for bribery. We do have a
former mayor who was in jail, c Ray Nagan Latoy,
the destroyer leaving. Now we've got this election going on.
All the major candidates are Democrat, all the council candidates
are Democrat, all the sheriff candidates are Democrat. There is
not one Republican elected official in New Orleans. The last
(11:12):
Republican mayor of New Orleans was elected in eighteen seventy two.
Speaker 3 (11:15):
So you've had one hundred and fifty three.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
Eighteen seventy two, and look at New Orleans.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
It's unbelievable.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Cincinnati's not hit a Republican mayor in over fifty years.
And the city Hamilton, Alexander, Hamilton, the Crescent City, New
Orleans were functional for decades even with Democrats in charge.
We had Democrats in charge for since nineteen seventy one, actually,
and the city was functional with moderate Democrats like Charlie
(11:45):
Lucan and others who simply were working class, middle class,
labor union type Democrats. But this is not your father's
Democrat party.
Speaker 4 (11:54):
Why no, No, they've just moved further to the left.
We had the same thing here in New Orleans. But
we had had moderate Democrats as mayors in the sixties
and they did fairly well. It was growing. I mean
New Orleans at one time had over six hundred and
twenty five thousand people. We were ranking the top ten
in the nation as far as population. Now the city
(12:15):
has three hundred and fifty thousand, so it's lost two
hundred and eighty thousand people since, you know, the late sixties,
early seventies, and people have fled because of the crime,
the education, the dysfunctions, the bad economy, you know everything.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
Right, I don't get it.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
You know, Cincinnati, like many major cities, there's a hole
in the middle and a donat around and at least
where I'm located. We have seven or eight counties around
Hamlton County that are completely controlled by Republicans, held accountable
with great bond readings and a good police force. In Cincinnati,
we have to have the major companies. They are like
Procter and Gamble and Fifth Third Bank. They hire their
(12:56):
own police departments because the city and then we have
the city Rst. Stronto owners are sending out a missive
that the city fathers and mothers are destroying the restaurant
industry in Cincinnati, the suburbanites don't want to go into
the city because they fear of being a gun upside
their head are being beaten. Some woman told me that
she's thankful when she dines at a fancy restaurant here,
(13:16):
that she goes out to the parking lot and her
car is not on blocks. And I'm thinking on blocks,
she's thankful and she has to pay protection money to
people to guard her car so the windows aren't broken
out and put on blocks. So can't let me ask you?
Are you ready for Jeff Crue? Are you ready for
the big question?
Speaker 3 (13:34):
I'm ready. I'm ready.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
America's large cities, Los Angeles, Karen Bass, who loved Fidel Castro,
went there thirty two times. Brandon Johnson in Chicago, who
is to the left of Lorie Lightfoot and not much
room is there. And now in New York City we
have a comedy name I'm Donnie about to be elected
the mayor. And the on top of out the cities
beneath that, like Memphis. I watched NBA players say we
(13:58):
don't want to play in Memphis. Dangerous for us to
be in Memphis, that we have to have a throwaway car.
By that, he means I want to have a lousy car.
I don't want to have a nice car. So I
was going to stop me and blow my brains out
for my car. Can America long survive is a great
nation when practically all of their major cities are in collapse?
Speaker 4 (14:17):
No, no, we can't abandon our cities. We can't just
say all right, the cities are gone. These are the
cities that used to be great in this country. We've
got to figure out a way to save our cities.
You mentioned one of them led by a Republican. I
know that in Dallas the mayor turned Republican, so I
(14:37):
think there's an opportunity. We have a city in Louisiana,
Baton Rouge, that elected a Republican for the first time
in the generation.
Speaker 3 (14:44):
Wow, So it can happen.
Speaker 4 (14:47):
And I do think those are what is needed because
obviously Democrats cannot leave. Democrats have failed policies, Democrats have
caused all of this. So eventually these voters have to
start thinking, all right, we gotta give Republicans a chance.
But Republicans need to ask for the vote. Republicans need
to go in.
Speaker 3 (15:06):
These communities and campaigns. They can't just neglect our urban areas.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
I would say, lastly, we have a council member who's
the vice mayor named lemon Kearney, who wants to pay
one thousand dollars a month to armed robbers every month
not to commit more arm robberies. I'm looking take her
in Victoria Parks. That's the cod Now, I'm serious about
this that if you're an arm robber, she wants to
(15:31):
pay you out of city money one thousand a month
to quit committing armed robberies. What about the kid that
doesn't commit armed robberies, he's treated worse than the kid
that does.
Speaker 2 (15:42):
That's assuming in the armed robbery someone isn't killed.
Speaker 1 (15:44):
But when you have a vice mayor, we want to
pay robbers to quit robbing people.
Speaker 3 (15:49):
There you go, that's just going to create more robbers.
Speaker 4 (15:53):
Yes, that's going to incentive ized people to commit crime.
Speaker 3 (15:57):
I mean, Bill, that is a horrible idea.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
I'm serious.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
I read this story and I said, now, wait a minute,
am I reading this correctly? And the answer is yes.
She's doubled down and said, yes, we need more pay
the arm robbers to quick committing armed robberies. The way
to make money is to commit an arm robbery. I'm going, hey,
that's a great idea right there. It's unbelievable. Well, I
don't know what to say. We're in a state of
(16:21):
shock and disbelief.
Speaker 3 (16:24):
Yeah, I'm sorry about what you're going through. I can identify.
I mean down.
Speaker 4 (16:28):
Here, you know, the criminals just get released from prison.
They don't even keep them behind bars. You know, we
let prisoners escape. We let prisoners go because they get
confused as to who they are, so they just relieve.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
And here we're paying one thousand dollars a month to
armed robberies, armed robbers, to quick committing armed robberies. The
way to success is commit an arm robbery. We're going
to pay for it. That's the vice mayor. She'll be
president one day. All right, we got to run, but
Jeff Crueer, you're the best there is. Love your stuff
at townhall dot com. And Jeff, thanks for coming on
(17:02):
the building. I'm serious about this. We're gonna pay armed robbers.
All right, we got to run, but Jeff, you're the best.
Thank you very much.
Speaker 4 (17:09):
All Right, my friends, thank you, Bill, God bless you.
Speaker 1 (17:11):
Let's continue with more. Now there's a social welfare program.
We will pay you to have kids out of wedlock,
we'll house clothing, feed, and then when you commit armed robberies,
we'll give you more money.
Speaker 2 (17:21):
That'll work. Bill Cunningham, seven hundreds WLW.

They move further to the left.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
Bill it's kind of like a government program. If it fails,
spend more money. And if some policy doesn't work, certainly
embrace it. Now you talk about the trans policy, this
is something Mam Donnie wants to do. He wants to
New York City to be the trans capital of the world,
not just free trans surgeries. He wants to pay for
the airfare of individuals coming New York City. He wants
(07:27):
to pay for the hotel rooms plus one hundred dollars
a day stipend in order to handle their food and
keep them there for several weeks during the post treatment
phase of the trans capital of the world instead of
the financial capital of the world, which is going to
cause more and more functional New Yorkers to leave, which
is already happening. And you also claim in your column
(07:47):
New York's taxes need to be raised. According to Mamdannie,
the city government should operate his own grocery stores like
in Nevana, and his support of seizing the means of production,
which is pure and simple communism. It reminds me of
Zeuela twenty twenty five years ago. Before Chavez et cetera,
Venezuela was the richest country in South America. Now they're
the poorest because they took over. They they used socialism
(08:11):
to take it over. And where's it work? Can you
give me an example, certainly not the Scandinavian countries where
these socialists say, you know what, We're going to bring
socialism to your city, to your town, to your state,
and we'll give you all these examples where it's worked before.
Speaker 4 (08:25):
Where has it worked well? I mean they've destroyed Cuba.
I mean Dan in Cuba they're using vehicles from the
nineteen fifties. I mean, they have a very very poor
economy there.
Speaker 3 (08:38):
Venezuela, as you said, it used to.
Speaker 4 (08:39):
Be a very rich country. They've destroyed the Venezuela. North Korea,
I mean, look at the difference between North Korea and
South Korea. South Korea's vibrant. North Korea has starvation. I
visited East Germany one time. Bill and I went over
the line to East Germany. Everybody was depressed. The grocery stores.
Speaker 3 (08:58):
Had nothing in them. It was like gray.
Speaker 4 (09:01):
And then you cross over the wall and you go
into the West German vibrant, lots of activity, capitalism.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
I mean, the difference is.
Speaker 4 (09:10):
Incredible between communists and capitalists. But these democrats want to
move in the direction of a failed system.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
They have never worked anywhere.
Speaker 1 (09:19):
Just let's break this down, because I can't imagine a
more failed political experiment than liberal democrats morphing into progressives,
morphing into Marxists, then morphing into a communist than what
I see in every major American city control by the
Democratic Party. The only big city controlled by a Republican
(09:39):
is Marsrez in Miami, and that's functional. But I live
in Cincinnati, you live in New Orleans. I can't imagine
more failed city policies than in Cincinnati and New Orleans.
So in New Orleans is at the Stockholm syndrome. What
is it that causes black voters to take on the
attributes of their captors? The Democratic Party is the party
(10:02):
of slavery, the ku Klux Klan, It's the party of lynchings.
It's the party of failed public schools and terrible law enforcement.
So why do voters who dominate the Democrat Now I
think black females vote ninety five percent for Democrats and
there's no vision of holding them accountable for failed policies
simply move on. In Cincinnati, we had four council members
(10:24):
a couple of three years ago go to federal prison
for bribes. So the Democratic parties strew up put four
more in there similarly, and they're enacting the same policies.
Why do failed policies not be held accountable by Democratic
voters in New Orleans, Portland, Cincinnati, Austin, Atlanta?
Speaker 2 (10:40):
Why does that happen?
Speaker 3 (10:42):
You know, you make a great point.
Speaker 4 (10:43):
I mean, you would think the voters would wake up
and say, hey, we got to stop voting for this because.
Speaker 3 (10:47):
It doesn't work here.
Speaker 4 (10:49):
In New Orleans, one of the leading candidates for mayor
did go to jail for bribery. We do have a
former mayor who was in jail, c Ray Nagan Latoy,
the destroyer leaving. Now we've got this election going on.
All the major candidates are Democrat, all the council candidates
are Democrat, all the sheriff candidates are Democrat. There is
not one Republican elected official in New Orleans. The last
(11:12):
Republican mayor of New Orleans was elected in eighteen seventy two.
Speaker 3 (11:15):
So you've had one hundred and fifty three.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
Eighteen seventy two, and look at New Orleans.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
It's unbelievable.
Speaker 1 (11:23):
Cincinnati's not hit a Republican mayor in over fifty years.
And the city Hamilton, Alexander, Hamilton, the Crescent City, New
Orleans were functional for decades even with Democrats in charge.
We had Democrats in charge for since nineteen seventy one, actually,
and the city was functional with moderate Democrats like Charlie
(11:45):
Lucan and others who simply were working class, middle class,
labor union type Democrats. But this is not your father's
Democrat party.
Speaker 4 (11:54):
Why no, No, they've just moved further to the left.
We had the same thing here in New Orleans. But
we had had moderate Democrats as mayors in the sixties
and they did fairly well. It was growing. I mean
New Orleans at one time had over six hundred and
twenty five thousand people. We were ranking the top ten
in the nation as far as population. Now the city
(12:15):
has three hundred and fifty thousand, so it's lost two
hundred and eighty thousand people since, you know, the late sixties,
early seventies, and people have fled because of the crime,
the education, the dysfunctions, the bad economy, you know everything.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
Right, I don't get it.
Speaker 1 (12:34):
You know, Cincinnati, like many major cities, there's a hole
in the middle and a donat around and at least
where I'm located. We have seven or eight counties around
Hamlton County that are completely controlled by Republicans, held accountable
with great bond readings and a good police force. In Cincinnati,
we have to have the major companies. They are like
Procter and Gamble and Fifth Third Bank. They hire their
(12:56):
own police departments because the city and then we have
the city Rst. Stronto owners are sending out a missive
that the city fathers and mothers are destroying the restaurant
industry in Cincinnati, the suburbanites don't want to go into
the city because they fear of being a gun upside
their head are being beaten. Some woman told me that
she's thankful when she dines at a fancy restaurant here,
(13:16):
that she goes out to the parking lot and her
car is not on blocks. And I'm thinking on blocks,
she's thankful and she has to pay protection money to
people to guard her car so the windows aren't broken
out and put on blocks. So can't let me ask you?
Are you ready for Jeff Crue? Are you ready for
the big question?
Speaker 3 (13:34):
I'm ready. I'm ready.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
America's large cities, Los Angeles, Karen Bass, who loved Fidel Castro,
went there thirty two times. Brandon Johnson in Chicago, who
is to the left of Lorie Lightfoot and not much
room is there. And now in New York City we
have a comedy name I'm Donnie about to be elected
the mayor. And the on top of out the cities
beneath that, like Memphis. I watched NBA players say we
(13:58):
don't want to play in Memphis. Dangerous for us to
be in Memphis, that we have to have a throwaway car.
By that, he means I want to have a lousy car.
I don't want to have a nice car. So I
was going to stop me and blow my brains out
for my car. Can America long survive is a great
nation when practically all of their major cities are in collapse?
Speaker 4 (14:17):
No, no, we can't abandon our cities. We can't just
say all right, the cities are gone. These are the
cities that used to be great in this country. We've
got to figure out a way to save our cities.
You mentioned one of them led by a Republican. I
know that in Dallas the mayor turned Republican, so I
(14:37):
think there's an opportunity. We have a city in Louisiana,
Baton Rouge, that elected a Republican for the first time
in the generation.
Speaker 3 (14:44):
Wow, So it can happen.
Speaker 4 (14:47):
And I do think those are what is needed because
obviously Democrats cannot leave. Democrats have failed policies, Democrats have
caused all of this. So eventually these voters have to
start thinking, all right, we gotta give Republicans a chance.
But Republicans need to ask for the vote. Republicans need
to go in.
Speaker 3 (15:06):
These communities and campaigns. They can't just neglect our urban areas.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
I would say, lastly, we have a council member who's
the vice mayor named lemon Kearney, who wants to pay
one thousand dollars a month to armed robbers every month
not to commit more arm robberies. I'm looking take her
in Victoria Parks. That's the cod Now, I'm serious about
this that if you're an arm robber, she wants to
(15:31):
pay you out of city money one thousand a month
to quit committing armed robberies. What about the kid that
doesn't commit armed robberies, he's treated worse than the kid
that does.
Speaker 2 (15:42):
That's assuming in the armed robbery someone isn't killed.
Speaker 1 (15:44):
But when you have a vice mayor, we want to
pay robbers to quit robbing people.
Speaker 3 (15:49):
There you go, that's just going to create more robbers.
Speaker 4 (15:53):
Yes, that's going to incentive ized people to commit crime.
Speaker 3 (15:57):
I mean, Bill, that is a horrible idea.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
I'm serious.
Speaker 1 (16:01):
I read this story and I said, now, wait a minute,
am I reading this correctly? And the answer is yes.
She's doubled down and said, yes, we need more pay
the arm robbers to quick committing armed robberies. The way
to make money is to commit an arm robbery. I'm going, hey,
that's a great idea right there. It's unbelievable. Well, I
don't know what to say. We're in a state of
(16:21):
shock and disbelief.
Speaker 3 (16:24):
Yeah, I'm sorry about what you're going through. I can identify.
I mean down.
Speaker 4 (16:28):
Here, you know, the criminals just get released from prison.
They don't even keep them behind bars. You know, we
let prisoners escape. We let prisoners go because they get
confused as to who they are, so they just relieve.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
And here we're paying one thousand dollars a month to
armed robberies, armed robbers, to quick committing armed robberies. The
way to success is commit an arm robbery. We're going
to pay for it. That's the vice mayor. She'll be
president one day. All right, we got to run, but
Jeff Crueer, you're the best there is. Love your stuff
at townhall dot com. And Jeff, thanks for coming on
(17:02):
the building. I'm serious about this. We're gonna pay armed robbers.
All right, we got to run, but Jeff, you're the best.
Thank you very much.
Speaker 4 (17:09):
All Right, my friends, thank you, Bill, God bless you.
Speaker 1 (17:11):
Let's continue with more. Now there's a social welfare program.
We will pay you to have kids out of wedlock,
we'll house clothing, feed, and then when you commit armed robberies,
we'll give you more money.
Speaker 2 (17:21):
That'll work. Bill Cunningham, seven hundreds WLW.
