[03:51] Citizen

[03:53] Reason on here this evening

[03:56] Think we all know what understand that issues

[03:59] That it's been going in

[04:01] Here is been sitting around our mayor

[04:02] We're in the mayor's 17 years

[04:05] And most of that has been under

[04:08] The 2-2 age of mayor

[04:11] Bless Parker we met quite a few

[04:14] Years ago precove it

[04:16] Worked together

[04:18] He is going to be strong supporter

[04:20] Which

[04:23] Taking care people on

[04:25] St.

[04:27] The access to be able the use facilities

[04:30] We need that

[04:32] To make sure we can help people

[04:35] He is an absolute super star when it comes

[04:37] As a person in this city

[04:40] Like any City you're going

[04:43] Have people disagree

[04:45] But so much success

[04:49] I'll debate with anybody on that

[04:52] Roads are an issue

[04:53] I'm going to discuss this

[04:56] We have a few years

[04:58] I am frustrated that we

[05:00] Have

[05:02] To do it because of things

[05:05] But everybody knows

[05:08] Everybody does know

[05:10] It's in the room

[05:13] There is nothing but prestige

[05:16] This city

[05:18] We are talking about

[05:20] We're talking

[05:23] About other states

[05:25] They see what we do

[05:27] Bless does

[05:29] And that man loves this city

[05:32] There is not a person around

[05:34] That he's in the position for

[05:38] I can't stand

[05:40] The stuff being dragged

[05:42] It needs to be ashamed of themselves

[05:45] And I doubt

[05:48] Seriously that most of the people in this city

[05:51] Can go without any a plum

[05:53] Blum-blumish mark

[05:55] On their background

[05:57] There is morality or anything like

[06:00] That

[06:02] It's our mayor doesn't mean

[06:04] He has his family man

[06:08] Any leader

[06:10] Just disgusting

[06:12] Find something out

[06:14] I'm going to talk about

[06:17] What's in the closet

[06:19] We'll be talking

[06:22] About what is inside

[06:24] I will tell you

[06:26] The damage of family

[06:30] If they are doing it

[06:32] It isn't just for blessing

[06:36] They say

[06:38] It's absolutely disgusting again

[06:40] Give me a break

[06:42] Honestly

[06:43] I'm going to talk about

[06:48] The right side of what we've done in this city

[06:50] Look at the people that they have

[06:52] We're sitting here looking

[06:54] Putting them through a microscope

[06:56] Everybody put me

[06:58] Through my school

[07:00] And you'll find stuff

[07:04] Who cares?

[07:07] With bottom line

[07:09] This is not

[07:11] It's called journalism

[07:13] So I could applaud that man

[07:16] For what he did today

[07:18] That is journalism

[07:20] Not just punk

[07:23] Frap, it's going on

[07:25] People want to get clicks and give paid for

[07:27] It all about
