Speaker 1: Five o five.
Speaker 2: At fifty five k r C the talk station Seriously
Speaker 2: Happy Tuesday, vacation.
Speaker 3: Idea, thank you. Joe Jecker summing up how I feel
Speaker 3: this morning. Brian Thomas fishing, everybody got happy Tuesdays. I
Speaker 3: typically start the program with got to try to make
Speaker 3: it one anyway, it's gonna be interesting day to day
Speaker 3: here in the fifty five KRC Morning show, Joe Warming,
Speaker 3: he said, you got a full schedule tomorrow, which I
Speaker 3: always like hearing, and then I come in and find out, Yeah,
Speaker 3: I got a full schedule. It's some great guests lined up.
Speaker 3: Christopher Smithman Volume two this morning, felt the need to
Speaker 3: respond to some online attack he's been receiving, calling him
Speaker 3: a Maga Republican, which based upon my exchange with Christopher yesterday,
Speaker 3: this was after the show. Of course he does the
Speaker 3: Monday Morning Spleen. Then is I guess in some way,
Speaker 3: shape or form within the black community basically calling him
Speaker 3: an uncle Tom. Christopher doesn't take real well to being
Speaker 3: attacked in that light, and it's an undeserved attack anyway.
Speaker 3: So Christopher, come on at six thirty in Ventis Spleen
Speaker 3: Round two. I always look forward to having him on
Speaker 3: the program, regardless of what day of the week it is.
Speaker 3: Ken Blackwell Love Ken Blackwell seven oh five With Ken,
Speaker 3: He's going to give a response. Mayor Aftab provols a
Speaker 3: response sort of. Finally, Mayor Aftab Parvoll came out and
Speaker 3: spoke or issued a statement about the brutal attacks in
Speaker 3: downtown Cincinnati three am Saturday morning. It came out yesterday.
Speaker 3: H how long does it take to issue a statement
Speaker 3: condemning the attacks, which is really all he said. I mean,
Speaker 3: you were going out on a limb to condemn the attacks.
Speaker 3: It's like, oh my god. Well, you didn't expect him
Speaker 3: to come out and like applaud the attacks, did you.
Speaker 3: That's a question why you hung around and didn't do
Speaker 3: anything until yesterday late. Anyway, we'll hear what Ken Blackwell
Speaker 3: has to say about that. Vv Ramaswamy the establishment's worst
Speaker 3: nightmare topic too. With Ken Blackwell wants to discuss briefly
Speaker 3: the largest sex abuse website Bust. Apparently Feds were a
Speaker 3: heart at work going out on the dark web and
Speaker 3: they rounded up some of the most horrific child abusers
Speaker 3: and child pornographers out there, which is just a great,
Speaker 3: great thing for law enforcement, which I applaud. May they
Speaker 3: all suffer miserably in prison, regularly suffer miserably in prison,
Speaker 3: and then in the afterlife. Maybe I was above have
Speaker 3: a double put aside for each and every one of them. Yeah,
Speaker 3: it'll continue in the afterlife to the extent you believe
Speaker 3: in one. If there is a hell, that's where they're going.
Speaker 3: And he'll also comment to why Hillary Clinton should be
Speaker 3: in jail. That should be fun Ken Blackwell seven oh
Speaker 3: five follow by Andre Ewing. I am blown away by
Speaker 3: this guy, former police officer, retired police officer, Andre Ewing.
Speaker 3: If you know who I'm talking about. When I mentioned
Speaker 3: his name, you know how fired up this guy is.
Speaker 3: He is like the most passionate Baptist minister at the
Speaker 3: front of a fired up congregation when it comes to
Speaker 3: his topics. And I had an eye full yesterday. Joe
Speaker 3: Strecker just told me about he was going to be
Speaker 3: on the program, so I went over to Andre Ewing
Speaker 3: e Wig. You search for them on Facebook, you'll know
Speaker 3: exactly what I'm talking about. Just watch some of his videos. Boy,
Speaker 3: he is absent, absolutely on fire about what's happening downtown.
Speaker 3: He thinks city manager Long should be fired. He thinks
Speaker 3: Mary I have to have fur a ball should be
Speaker 3: voted out of office. He demands a change in administration.
Speaker 3: He wants some reforms in the police department. He is
Speaker 3: a profound critic of Police Chief Teresa Thiji. Says she
Speaker 3: never should have been a point of the job, which
Speaker 3: is why he points the city Manager Cheryl Long and
Speaker 3: says that she never should have appointed police Chief Thiji
Speaker 3: because nobody in the police department apparently wanted her. Not
Speaker 3: my words, I'm just boiling down the summon substance. What
Speaker 3: andre Ewing's one of his brants anyway, and it was
Speaker 3: kind of wild because he posts this rant about the
Speaker 3: change in administration on the twenty fourth, and then the
Speaker 3: day later is when we had this brutal attack in
Speaker 3: downtown Cincinnati. So of course he went up with a
Speaker 3: follow up basically, see I told you so. So he's
Speaker 3: going to be on fire this morning at seven point thirty,
Speaker 3: maybe out doing Christopher Smitheman yesterday's Smither event. We'll see
Speaker 3: impressive guy andre Ewing inside scoop of bride Bart News.
Speaker 3: It is Tuesday.
Speaker 4: We do that.
Speaker 3: So this Tuesday we're gonna get Colin Maida and the
Speaker 3: Tech editor he's been on multiple times. He will comment
Speaker 3: on the brawl in Cincinnati that people found out via
Speaker 3: social media, something that I thought rather interesting. Dan Horne
Speaker 3: and Aaron Glenn from the Cincinnai Inquirer did kind of
Speaker 3: what it appears to be an opinion piece about people
Speaker 3: jumping to conclusions on social media. How the conservative outlets
Speaker 3: posted the videos of that brawl the beat down I
Speaker 3: should more properly call it in downtown Cincinnati and immediately
Speaker 3: leapt to conclusions, Joe, is it unusual for people to
Speaker 3: leap to conclusions online? Is that a shocking phenomenon? I
Speaker 3: know it wasn't just conservative media, but that's the spin
Speaker 3: that they put on it in the Cincinnati Enquirer. I
Speaker 3: know it's shocked, shocking that they would put a spin
Speaker 3: on an anti conservative spin on it, and shocking that
Speaker 3: anyone would draw a jump to conclusions about anything they
Speaker 3: see online. God, anyway, have more comments on that, maybe
Speaker 3: a little bit. He'll talk about going back to Colin
Speaker 3: may Dine at eight five Man in New York using
Speaker 3: artificial intelligence to build bombs, and finally Teachers Union teaming
Speaker 3: up with chat GPT and it being Tuesday that Daniel
Speaker 3: Davis Deep Dive with the latest on Russia, Ukraine as
Speaker 3: well as Israel and Gaza. It's interesting. It was on
Speaker 3: Daniel Davis Deep Dive, his online podcast. He had me
Speaker 3: as a guest. We talked for about forty five minutes.
Speaker 3: We went through about five different topics, and it's amazing
Speaker 3: when you have any comment whatsoever about Israel and Gaza,
Speaker 3: how the speaking of drawing conclusions and come up with
Speaker 3: accusations and things. It's amazing how many people on social
Speaker 3: media will just immediately ignite almost like spontaneous human combustion
Speaker 3: over the subject matter of Israel and Gaza and immediately
Speaker 3: attack anybody who has a pro a leaning pro Israel
Speaker 3: bent on anything. I guess I'm a Zionist or something.
Speaker 3: I don't know, but several hundred comments and I doubt
Speaker 3: he'll ever have me back on the Daniel Davis Deep
Speaker 3: Time podcast. I'm gonna ask him about that when he
Speaker 3: comes on. I alienate some of your followers there, Daniel. Anyway,
Speaker 3: Rabbi ari Jin was on yesterday and he actually was
Speaker 3: first on the fifty five case in the morning show
Speaker 3: after I had Daniel Davis on for the deep dive
Speaker 3: and Daniel Davis said some things that many of my
Speaker 3: friends in the israel community, in the Jewish community found
Speaker 3: not a necessarily offensive, but objectionable. Wow, a lightning rod
Speaker 3: that subject is. So if you didn't hear Rabbi jun yesterday,
Speaker 3: he talked about the protests on the Robling Bridge, how
Speaker 3: the ultimate police involvement and arrest ended up taking away
Speaker 3: from the point of the protest that wasn't supposed to
Speaker 3: shut down the bridge. No one got the message ultimately
Speaker 3: because well the protesters ended up invading the bridge and
Speaker 3: shutting it down. That is a crime. Ergo, the law
Speaker 3: enforcement officials came in. He just subjected to the Covington
Speaker 3: police departments what he proceeded to be over zealous response.
Speaker 3: So anyway, that's what the podcast page is for if
Speaker 3: you can't listen live all right, back over to the
Speaker 3: developments from the riot in the street or the beatdown
Speaker 3: in the street. Hamilin County Prosecutor County Pillach came out
Speaker 3: yesterday talking about the brawl downtown, said her office is
Speaker 3: going to prosecute the attackers and pursue the case, in
Speaker 3: her word, aggressively. She did condemn the behavior called the
Speaker 3: actions of those disgusting and deplorable. Quote on background, I
Speaker 3: don't know people think about I don't know if people
Speaker 3: think about punishment when they do most of these crimes.
Speaker 3: But on the record, the behavior we witness is not
Speaker 3: that of rational human beings. It was disgusting and deplorable,
Speaker 3: and we as a community need to speak up and
Speaker 3: say this is not acceptable. This is not who Cincinnati is.
Speaker 3: We are better than this. If there are other issues
Speaker 3: in the community that led to this, I'm all for
Speaker 3: being part of the solution. And I pause and I
Speaker 3: think about that. If there are other issues in the
Speaker 3: community that led to this, I'm all for being part
Speaker 3: of the solution. Now step back and analyze that just briefly,
Speaker 3: And I've made this point with regard to people randomly
Speaker 3: driving by and unloading a firearm into a group of people,
Speaker 3: not knowing or intending to hit anybody. I don't think
Speaker 3: how could you do a drive by into a group
Speaker 3: of people and really anticipate hitting one specific target. You're
Speaker 3: just shooting and spraying into the group. Are there issues
Speaker 3: in the community that justify that, No, of course not.
Speaker 3: How could you possibly say that someone spraying gunfire into
Speaker 3: a random group of people could be connected with any
Speaker 3: societal problem other than maybe a poor upbringing or something.
Speaker 3: But how do you I mean, if you're the person
Speaker 3: with the gun in their hand, what is your motivation
Speaker 3: for this? How are you drawing a line between your
Speaker 3: anger or some societal problem in the community with shooting
Speaker 3: guns into a random group of people. There is no
Speaker 3: logical connection with that. There's no way you can rationalize
Speaker 3: or justify the attempted murder with whatever problems you face
Speaker 3: growing up. And I would say the same thing about
Speaker 3: the people who beat the crap out of the folks
Speaker 3: in downtown Cincinnati the other day, even if there was
Speaker 3: a verbal altercation, which there apparently was, and apparently I
Speaker 3: guess there's one video of the guy that got the
Speaker 3: ultimate beatdown slapping. This is what started the altercation. It
Speaker 3: was a slap or something, probably a bad idea. But
Speaker 3: you're the guy next to the two people arguing, they
Speaker 3: start a fight, and then you jump in and start
Speaker 3: kicking the hell out of someone who's already on the ground,
Speaker 3: and going back for a second and third slice of
Speaker 3: the action. More violence, more kicking, more head stomping. The
Speaker 3: man's down. Is that are you doing that as a
Speaker 3: consequence of some issue in the community, Using the words
Speaker 3: of Hamilton County prosecutor, kind of village, What the hell
Speaker 3: is that all about? Did that man create an issue
Speaker 3: in your community that justifies you beating him almost to death?
Speaker 3: Not even considering the woman who got punched in the
Speaker 3: face and not cold. Is she something? Is something going
Speaker 3: on in the community that she's responsible for? No, of
Speaker 3: course not. I mean, I can't say that definitively because
Speaker 3: I don't know that woman or the guy that got
Speaker 3: the crap beat out of him.
Speaker 5: I don't know.
Speaker 3: Maybe they're part of this, Maybe they are the root
Speaker 3: of society's problems. Maybe the folks in downtown Sin Sin
Speaker 3: I at three o'clock in the morning Saturday knew full
Speaker 3: well that those two were responsible for these society's problems,
Speaker 3: and therefore we're justificab we're worthy of the beatdown that
Speaker 3: they received. I know it's preposterous anyway, the prosecutor urged them.
Speaker 3: I'm just reading the words of Ali Hannard over at
Speaker 3: Fox nineteen. Prosecutor also urged the community to speak up
Speaker 3: and make it clear that such behavior will not be tolerated,
Speaker 3: and that is really fundamentally what Andrea Ewing was all about.
Speaker 3: He was screaming at his fellow African American black people.
Speaker 3: You are embarrassing. That's what I asked Christopher about the
Speaker 3: other day. I said, you know, if I was a
Speaker 3: black person in the city of Cincinnati, I would be
Speaker 3: horrified to lay witness that my fellow black brothers are
Speaker 3: out there doing something like this. It's given me a
Speaker 3: bad name. People are drawing conclusions about it, which was
Speaker 3: the point of that op ed piece over in the
Speaker 3: enquire by Dan Hornan Aaron Glenn. People immediately leapt to conclusions.
Speaker 3: Now do we know it was racially motivated? No, I'm
Speaker 3: sitting here this morning and I don't know if it
Speaker 3: has any do with race nothing, but it certainly invites
Speaker 3: the discussion. And we do see that the majority of
Speaker 3: the folks that were issuing the beat down were African
Speaker 3: American or black people, and the victims in this particular
Speaker 3: case were white people. So yeah, it's bad optics. And
Speaker 3: going back to my point, it doesn't make any sense
Speaker 3: issue that kind of beat down under any circumstances whatsoever,
Speaker 3: with the notable exception that the person that's getting the
Speaker 3: beat down molested your child or your daughter or your wife,
Speaker 3: that kind of thing, then I might be able to
Speaker 3: applaud the beat down. There's no evidence of that and
Speaker 3: those people having any connection with the people issuing the beatdown.
Speaker 3: Saturday morning, anyway, can't wait for Andre to join the
Speaker 3: program to talk about that, and onload five one, three, seven,
Speaker 3: four nine fifty five hundred, eight hundred and eighty two
Speaker 3: to three talk pound five fifty on AT and t F.
Speaker 3: I'm feel free to chime in. You know, I'm one man.
Speaker 3: We know what opinions are like. I've got one. I
Speaker 3: know you do too, feel free to offer it. I'll
Speaker 3: be right back after these words.
Speaker 6: This is fifty five KRC and iHeartRadio.
Speaker 7: Stick there.
Speaker 4: It is.
Speaker 3: Channel nine First one forecasts two day. Let me guess
Speaker 3: it's gonna hot right mostly to cloude to partly sunning
Speaker 3: hot and very humid ninety one to the high. He
Speaker 3: index one hundred three overnight clear sky seventy three for
Speaker 3: the low, partly cloudy, very human Tomorrow isolated storms possible
Speaker 3: ninety two for a high and again one hundred and
Speaker 3: three of the ET index overnight sixty eight. Heat Advisor
Speaker 3: expires at eight pm tomorrow evening. Let us see here
Speaker 3: four Thursday, a high of eighty two. Oh wow, cooling down,
Speaker 3: mostly cloudy as the cold front slowly comes through seventy
Speaker 3: five degrees right now. If it's about ker City talk station,
Speaker 3: interesting observation. Dress Strecker obviously a very astute observer of things,
Speaker 3: since a mayor did come out with a statement as
Speaker 3: brief as it was issued it yesterday. I am outraged
Speaker 3: by the vicious fight that occurred downtown. It is horrifying
Speaker 3: to watch, and this is unacceptable and disgusting behavior here
Speaker 3: is intolerable in any part of our community. That's not
Speaker 3: who we are as a city. Let me be clear,
Speaker 3: Cincinnati is an inclusive city where all can come together
Speaker 3: to enjoy major events in our urban core. I want
Speaker 3: to thank our law enforcement for their thorough work both
Speaker 3: to investigate this incident and to keep folks safe throughout
Speaker 3: our city in this weekend. Jobs are that while Police
Speaker 3: Chief Teresa Fiji and other some anyway other officials did
Speaker 3: actually have a press statement, they invited people to be
Speaker 3: there live in person. I have to have pervol issued
Speaker 3: his statement on zoom. There was no Q and A
Speaker 3: and he said it was kind of a blurred background.
Speaker 3: You know when you do a zoom or a video
Speaker 3: conference and you can blur the background so people don't
Speaker 3: see your wife walking through or your dog or whatever.
Speaker 3: I mean, we've all been down that road. So Joe
Speaker 3: is kind of questioning out loud, do you think he's
Speaker 3: even in town. I don't know that matters. I mean,
Speaker 3: we you know, he's got the right to go out
Speaker 3: of town. But just looking at that, and when he
Speaker 3: made that statement, I was looking at the v Ramaswamy statement,
Speaker 3: he said. I spoke to Holly earlier. The woman tragedy
Speaker 3: was Sultans Cincinnati this week, single work of mom who
Speaker 3: went to a friend's birthday party. It's unconsortable that we're
Speaker 3: no police president in the area of Cincinnati on Friday night,
Speaker 3: or even an ambulance to take her to the hospital.
Speaker 3: Hard working Americans shouldn't have to worry about or worry
Speaker 3: for their safety when they have a good time in
Speaker 3: our cities. Holly said. Not a single local or state
Speaker 3: official had yet reached out as of early afternoon. This
Speaker 3: was yesterday, wasn't it, Joe when he issued this statement? Yeah, huh,
Speaker 3: And yet Viva Ramaswamy did reach out. He's a good man.
Speaker 3: He's gonna make a great governor. Five twenty five fifty
Speaker 3: five KR see the talk stations five and three seven
Speaker 3: four fifty five hundred eight hundred two three talk. Don't
Speaker 3: know if I don't have any local stories except for one,
Speaker 3: except for what we're talking about, so I can dive
Speaker 3: further into details of some of the additional statements regarding
Speaker 3: the over the weekend beat down, for which there is
Speaker 3: no excuse.
Speaker 7: Don't go away, be right back, fifty five KRC the
Speaker 7: talk station.
Speaker 6: Here's the web.
Speaker 4: Night.
Speaker 3: Here is your Channel nine first one weather forecast. Got
Speaker 3: a cloudy to mostly cloudy two partly sunny. That's the
Speaker 3: skies today. It is hot, it's gonna be very humid today,
Speaker 3: gonna be dry though ninety one for a high heat
Speaker 3: index LOWE hundred is mostly clear of a night seventy
Speaker 3: three eight tomorrow apart with clotty, very humid, I have
Speaker 3: ninety two heat index LOWE hundreds. Overnight clouds, scattered storms
Speaker 3: are a possibility sixty eight and on Thursday, a cool down.
Speaker 3: I have eighty two with most cloudy sky's seventy four
Speaker 3: degrees right now for five ker CE talk station to
Speaker 3: shi A five thirty on a Tuesday and a happy
Speaker 3: one to five one three seven five hundred eight hundred
Speaker 3: eight two three talk five by fifty on AT and
Speaker 3: T phones. You know, I just got it a real
Speaker 3: quick here. Before I jumped to the phones, I got
Speaker 3: tom online. I'm glad to see that. As is tradition
Speaker 3: is is thug a bad word? It's though it's not
Speaker 3: on George Carlin's seven Dirty Words list. Your reason I ask,
Speaker 3: I was look at it CPS reporting on it headlines.
Speaker 3: JD Van says video of violent fight and said it
Speaker 3: Cincinnati shows mob of lawless thugs headline, and that is
Speaker 3: part of what said. But if you look over I
Speaker 3: think is Fox nineteen Fox nineteen's reporting on it. Let
Speaker 3: me see here, I think it was. I was trying
Speaker 3: to find I've got so many articles related to this subject.
Speaker 3: But yeah, so over at Fox nineteen's reporting they do
Speaker 3: the full Jdvans quote as well. I have seen the
Speaker 3: full context. But what I saw as a mob of
Speaker 3: lawless tea and then astisk they don't spell the word
Speaker 3: thugs out. I didn't realize thug was something that needed
Speaker 3: to be deleted by way of actually like like an
Speaker 3: FCC non compliant word, which is my perception of Fox
Speaker 3: nineteen's reporting on this. Kind of weird, isn't it anyway?
Speaker 3: Just an observation. Let's see what Tom's got to say. Tom,
Speaker 3: thank you for bearing with me there as I was
Speaker 3: trying to struggle with the reality of thug being something
Speaker 3: that was worthy of being deleted.
Speaker 8: Go ahead, Well, it depends on whose subject.
Speaker 9: You know, Republicans saying it and they're referring to possibly
Speaker 9: black people, then oh, it's a terrible word to use.
Speaker 9: If it's uh, if it's a liberal and they're calling
Speaker 9: Republicans jack booted thugs, oh it's perfectly funky. It's spell
Speaker 9: out with all caps. So it's it's all relevant, Brian,
Speaker 9: to who's saying it and who they're saying it about.
Speaker 3: All right, And in the observation, I must interject, though,
Speaker 3: there's been some suggestion some of the local news reporting
Speaker 3: on this. Now, well, you know, the group of people
Speaker 3: that were around the beat down and those involved in
Speaker 3: the beatdown apparently were of mixed ethnicity, So we're not
Speaker 3: dealing with one specific group of ethnic people here. So
Speaker 3: thugs in this particular case.
Speaker 10: We're not.
Speaker 9: But they obviously there are some black people included in
Speaker 9: that group. So and since JAV did not take them
Speaker 9: out and sort them out according to race, they have
Speaker 9: to make.
Speaker 4: Sure they do that.
Speaker 9: So Uh anyway, Uh yeah, again, it depends on who
Speaker 9: says that, who they're talking about. And because we don't
Speaker 9: want to offend anybody, and clearly our our astudent uh
Speaker 9: prosecutor is his wanting to make sure she covers her
Speaker 9: rear in and her statement about maybe there's some problem
Speaker 9: in society.
Speaker 4: Uh, you nailed it.
Speaker 9: What there's no problem in society that wards that that's
Speaker 9: just I got to finally watch it yesterday, Uh, sit
Speaker 9: down and watch the and and the extra clips that
Speaker 9: have been at and said that there's no there's no
Speaker 9: excuse for that. That's but and and these people who
Speaker 9: are saying that's not who we are, Uh, well maybe
Speaker 9: maybe it's turning into who we are and why are
Speaker 9: we turning into this? Why is this happening? And but
Speaker 9: you know, I feel so much better now because the
Speaker 9: mayor has released the statement, So it's all safe to
Speaker 9: go back downtown.
Speaker 4: People, don't worry. Your mayor is on the job and he.
Speaker 9: Has released a statement and so you know, I have
Speaker 9: no fear. Everything's fine. Nobody will be messing around anymore.
Speaker 9: Because the mayor released a statement. I just feel so
Speaker 9: much better about it. And and the thing in the
Speaker 9: statement that got me. I don't know why this stood
Speaker 9: out the most. They'll let me be clear. Comment Barack Obama.
Speaker 9: Isn't that what he's famous for? These Democrats are absolutely ridiculous.
Speaker 9: Please people don't vote Democrats.
Speaker 5: Have a great day, Brian, you too.
Speaker 3: Tom Thug definition a violent aggressive person, especially one who
Speaker 3: is a criminal. Oxford Dictionary thug a violent aggressive person.
Speaker 5: I think.
Speaker 3: Isn't that definition? I mean, the literal definition of what
Speaker 3: we were witnessing. No, we can't use that word. Someone
Speaker 3: might be offended.
Speaker 5: Okay.
Speaker 3: Anyway, they do get five people charged in in the
Speaker 3: altercation so far. While investigating witnesses account videos posted online,
Speaker 3: Police Chief Teresa Thiji said they were able to identify
Speaker 3: I'm just account from WCPO props to Tailor Wheder, Molly
Speaker 3: Shram and Sean Delancey, reporting five people so far been
Speaker 3: charged these you said, police anticipate more charges, calling for
Speaker 3: people involved to turn themselves in. Quote it would be
Speaker 3: in their best interest to come turn themselves in at
Speaker 3: one of our police districts, at least any of the
Speaker 3: ones that are remaining. She said the videos online do
Speaker 3: not provide the full story. Didn't say what police believe
Speaker 3: led to the fight. She said anyone who placed their
Speaker 3: hands on somebody in an attempt to cause harm will
Speaker 3: face consequences. Shelsa said officers are looking into whether some
Speaker 3: of the people involved were over served at local bars
Speaker 3: or restaurants, saying it's clear alcohol played a part in
Speaker 3: the fight. What hey, Joe, the music festival had nothing
Speaker 3: to do with the incident and alcohol may have been involved.
Speaker 3: Now they're checking into seeing if some of the people
Speaker 3: involved were overserved. How can you do that several days
Speaker 3: after the incident. You're not going to know whether they
Speaker 3: were drunk or not at the time of the beat down.
Speaker 3: It's a little late. Blood alcohol content probably dropped. And
Speaker 3: how can you know it's clear that alcohol played a
Speaker 3: part in the fight if you have not determined whether
Speaker 3: some of the people involved were overserved or not. I mean,
Speaker 3: that's just I mean, I'm just reading what's written. No,
Speaker 3: there's no report of a toxicology being done, Joe, there's
Speaker 3: no breathalyzer tests that have been reported. Nobody knows. I mean,
Speaker 3: the reporters point out that they're looking into whether some
Speaker 3: were overserved. They had a determinative concluded, they had concluded
Speaker 3: definitively that some of the people involved in this were drunk.
Speaker 3: I imagine it would have said that police have determined
Speaker 3: that alcohol was in fact involved because some of the
Speaker 3: people's toxicology reports indicate that they had a blood alcohol
Speaker 3: content exceeding point zero eight or something to that effect.
Speaker 3: So how can you say it's clear alcohol played a
Speaker 3: part and fight if you have not yet determined whether
Speaker 3: anybody was overserved yet? Five point thirty seven, Fred, I
Speaker 3: will take your call. I promise if you don't mind
Speaker 3: holding just for a moment, I'll be right back.

Speaker 8: you praise on that first.
Speaker 3: See you went to affordable imaging and you save that
Speaker 3: kind of money.
Speaker 8: I say, that kind of money.
Speaker 5: That's awesome.
Speaker 8: Actually, yeah it was. It was great. I was like,
Speaker 8: I've been trying to get in to talk to you,
Speaker 8: but anyway, real quick.
Speaker 3: Fred, real quick, man, I'm sorry to interrupt you your
Speaker 3: train of thought. Go ahead to tell what it does.
Speaker 3: If affordable imaging also fixed your road. Oh yes, I know,
Speaker 3: I know, I know, I know we go way back
Speaker 3: on that one, and I know your road could repaved anyway, Fred,
Speaker 3: go ahead.
Speaker 8: Man, okay, on your last caller and I got to do.
Speaker 8: That's why I love listening to you in the morning,
Speaker 8: because you try to correct people when they're when they
Speaker 8: go off a little bit. And your last call I
Speaker 8: like listening to him. He makes me laugh. But you know,
Speaker 8: when he's talking about the thugs and not understanding what's
Speaker 8: going on and he don't have the whole story, he
Speaker 8: need to check what he's talking about first before he speaks,
Speaker 8: because when he speaks, it makes him seem like he
Speaker 8: don't understand what he's talking about, and you corrected him,
Speaker 8: and I appreciate that very much. And listen, I'm not
Speaker 8: a spokesman for the black communities, but the community that
Speaker 8: I am, we dispute that violence for young people. We
Speaker 8: believe the police get do a lot more. We want
Speaker 8: more police. I want more police. You know, we're not
Speaker 8: anti police. We want more police. We want our kids
Speaker 8: to be home. We don't want our kids running the streets.
Speaker 8: You don't listen all the stuff that's being talked about.
Speaker 8: We already agree with one hundred percent with it. So
Speaker 8: I don't want people to think that like it's because
Speaker 8: I'm black man. I'm not speaking for the black community.
Speaker 8: For the community that I'm in, we do want the
Speaker 8: same thing you want.
Speaker 3: You know, And I asked Christopher Smithman the very same question.
Speaker 3: You know, if you pull people in the black community,
Speaker 3: what is their perception of police elect Well, we would
Speaker 3: like more, you know, we generally speaking, we want a
Speaker 3: safe neighborhood. And we all understand some police or bad people.
Speaker 3: And you pick any category of people, put them all
Speaker 3: in one room. Some of the people in that room,
Speaker 3: regardless of who they are, are going to be jerks.
Speaker 3: And I could use an FCC non compliant word to
Speaker 3: describe them. But there's a percentage of every population that's
Speaker 3: going to fall into the category of a bad egg.
Speaker 3: But because the police provides safety in the community, generally speaking,
Speaker 3: it's their task, it's their job. Most people want them,
Speaker 3: especially if you're in a violent community. And I appreciate
Speaker 3: Fred you saying that out loud because more people should
Speaker 3: step up and say it, and maybe then our elected
Speaker 3: officials will make similar pronouncements and encourage and engage the
Speaker 3: community to regularly repeat that mantra. No, we are not
Speaker 3: against the police. We want law and order. Period.
Speaker 8: Let me tell you one more thing. I'll stay in
Speaker 8: Westwood and I've been staying. I think I'm bought this
Speaker 8: house seven years ago, and I know at least four
Speaker 8: to five people have been shot and killed in front
Speaker 8: of my house.
Speaker 3: Oh my god.
Speaker 8: And I called the police. I call the police, I
Speaker 8: call the police. They do nothing. The same people that's
Speaker 8: standing outside the standing out there for the last six
Speaker 8: seven years. They don't stay on the neighborhood, they don't
Speaker 8: stay in one of the houses. They bring crates there,
Speaker 8: sit down on crates, they sit there all day. But
Speaker 8: my tax paying money is not working clearly anyway. I
Speaker 8: just wanted to call and say thank you again for
Speaker 8: correcting the people that's wrong when they say something wrong,
Speaker 8: and I will keep on following you.
Speaker 3: Thank you, Fred. I appreciate your calls, and I appreciate
Speaker 3: you listening to the morning show, and I do my best. Man,
Speaker 3: I catch myself paint with a broad brush occasionally, and
Speaker 3: I stop myself when I catch myself and I acknowledge it.
Speaker 3: Don't paint with a broad brush. You can't just say
Speaker 3: this is the way it is without acknowledging the reality
Speaker 3: of the situation, especially before all the facts aren't in.
Speaker 3: I mean, maybe it's the lawyer in me. I don't
Speaker 3: want to ever jump to a conclusion before I have
Speaker 3: information that allows me to even reach a conclusion. God
Speaker 3: bless you, Fred, and I'm glad you save the money.
Speaker 3: See this is I love the fact that I can
Speaker 3: save my listeners money. It's one of the reasons why
Speaker 3: I'm happy to support affordable imaging services. And I'm glad
Speaker 3: they support the program by advertising, because I want you
Speaker 3: to save money. I don't want people spending money they
Speaker 3: don't have to spend on anything.
Speaker 13: Anyway.
Speaker 3: I got a couple of the callers online. I'm gonna
Speaker 3: get to those right away. But first look on the
Speaker 3: spot list affordable imaging services. Timing could have been better, Fred,
Speaker 3: I didn't even plan this. I just looked up now
Speaker 3: and saw that I was supposed to a spot for
Speaker 3: affordable and why not. You two can save thousands. Fred
Speaker 3: just saved six thousand dollars. And over the times that
Speaker 3: I've been to affordable imaging services, since I've gotten like
Speaker 3: three CT scans there, I think I've probably saved like
Speaker 3: maybe fifteen thousand dollars. Because the CT scan will cost
Speaker 3: you maybe five grand at a hospital, it's four hundred
Speaker 3: and fifty dollars without a contrast six hundred with the
Speaker 3: contrast that affordable imaging services. I mean, that's massive, massive savings. Jeff,
Speaker 3: you're out there. I know you save thirty one hundred bucks.
Speaker 3: I love using him as an illustration. I can now
Speaker 3: use Fred as an illustration. Matt, this is serious money.
Speaker 3: Ultrasound maybe two grand at a hospital, No, two hundred
Speaker 3: and fifty bucks. Every one of the images that affordable
Speaker 3: imaging services, whether it's an echo cardigrand MRI, CT scan, ultrasound,
Speaker 3: X ray, all come of the board. Certified radiology support
Speaker 3: included in the price, and they now have a new
Speaker 3: location New Richmond, right there off I seventy at the
Speaker 3: Ohio Indiana border. Other than than the other one is
Speaker 3: in I Colts Road, which is real close to thirty
Speaker 3: Route thirty two. So two locations that X ray seventy
Speaker 3: five bucks. So save massive amounts of money. Be like Fred,
Speaker 3: do the right thing. It's good for your bottom line.
Speaker 3: Five one three seven, five three eight thousand, five one
Speaker 3: three seven, five three eight thousand. You can see all
Speaker 3: the pricing and information online at Affordable Medimaging.

Speaker 3: We're gonna start with submarine or AKA cribbage Mike. Always
Speaker 3: a pleasure hearing from.
Speaker 13: You, Mike.
Speaker 8: Good morning, Brian Thomas. Are you today, sir?
Speaker 3: I'm doing great. Next Wednesday, Weedhaman Breweries where our listener
Speaker 3: lunch location is am I gonna run India on the calendar, sir. Fantastic,
Speaker 3: So everybody's inviting its street. Yeah, I listen, man, I
Speaker 3: can't believe how any of us want. I won four
Speaker 3: in a row, Yes, sir, Oh my god. It Well,
Speaker 3: we'll see what happens next Wednesday. Everyone's invited listener lunch
Speaker 3: Weaedam and brewery next Wednesday. So what's on your mind today, Mike?
Speaker 8: Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 14: CPD has an official spokesperson that could deal with the
Speaker 14: media a lot better than our current police chief has
Speaker 14: been doing. You and the callers have done a great
Speaker 14: job dissecting her comments about the fight and the ridiculous
Speaker 14: of her statement where she quickly exonerated the jazz festival.
Speaker 14: I guess I am part of the problem then, because
Speaker 14: my grandson Parker and I were at the Reds game
Speaker 14: on over this past weekend. So I guess we are
Speaker 14: part because we were not exonerated by that idiotic statement
Speaker 14: that she made so quickly with twenty four hours?
Speaker 3: Was Parker overserved in the Dora?
Speaker 5: How old is that?
Speaker 4: You do?
Speaker 8: We sweated all out, that's for sure.
Speaker 3: He's like eight, isn't he?
Speaker 8: He's actually going to be ten.
Speaker 3: I'm sorry to Parker. I apologize Parker for understanding your anyway.
Speaker 14: But prior to that on Friday, which obviously after what
Speaker 14: we've just experienced, definitely you know, has gotten buried in
Speaker 14: the weeds. Her and our dubious mayor, we're having a
Speaker 14: press conference concerning the youth crime and all the guns
Speaker 14: and stuff like that, and like anything else, if you
Speaker 14: can't solve the problem, it's better to deflect it. So
Speaker 14: they made the statement that it's because of those wascally
Speaker 14: Republicans up in Columbus. Because of the relaxation of the
Speaker 14: requirement to get concealed Carrie, to go to the training
Speaker 14: and to get a permit, that's why so many more
Speaker 14: teens or I'll say the words, so many thugs.
Speaker 13: Have guns now, okay, and last they.
Speaker 14: Never had them before, like they always went to the
Speaker 14: training or as soon as they relaxed it, that's when
Speaker 14: they started to get guns.
Speaker 3: Yeah, And if a teenager went into a store to
Speaker 3: buy a firearm, I don't think they'd be able to
Speaker 3: get through the process because they're teenagers.
Speaker 8: He exactly.
Speaker 3: There is still a law in the book for that, right.
Speaker 8: I believe it's twenty one for him.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it happens to be. Yeah, Yeah, I appreciate it, Mike.
Speaker 3: Next Wednesday, brother, we'll see if I can make it.
Speaker 3: Five Jay, Welcome to the Morning Show. Always good to
Speaker 3: hear from you.
Speaker 15: Hey, good morning, Brian.
Speaker 4: Hey.
Speaker 15: The comment about you know, overserved and alcoholics clearly involved.
Speaker 15: What that means is that the people in the video,
Speaker 15: it's not their fault. Overserved means implies their victims. So
Speaker 15: the real problem, the root cause. Don't worry about the video.
Speaker 15: It's probably going to be the bartenders and the establishments
Speaker 15: down there. Anything along with the statement and wherever came
Speaker 15: out of the media that said no, no, no, no,
Speaker 15: there was a it's a big mixed race group, not
Speaker 15: just one. Just because somebody says it doesn't change what's
Speaker 15: on that video. And I applied Christopher Smitherman yesterday for
Speaker 15: stepping up and saying, yes, the NAACP could be the
Speaker 15: bridge should step up. Are we to believe that the
Speaker 15: gangs of teens in town is that also a mixed race?
Speaker 15: If there's Asians and mix with white kids, mixed with
Speaker 15: Black kids, mixed with Indian kids, and maybe Native Americans,
Speaker 15: they're all running around as one big group until we
Speaker 15: get to the truth and say something's going on and
Speaker 15: there needs to be some help or some intervention, or
Speaker 15: the people of that community need to step up, or
Speaker 15: they needs to be law enforcement. Then we can continue
Speaker 15: to do what liberals do, which is don't look here,
Speaker 15: this isn't the problem. Or we could say, hey, let's
Speaker 15: take another look at that thing. But right now they're
Speaker 15: short on facts. So what do they always do? It's
Speaker 15: not this isn't the problem. It's not a racial thing.
Speaker 15: But if that was a black person and a black woman,
Speaker 15: black men and black women that got beat down, they
Speaker 15: would own, like I said yesterday, they would own the
Speaker 15: victimhood and the NAACP and al Sharkon would already be
Speaker 15: marching in the streets demanding justice and probably getting it. Well, yeah,
Speaker 15: just because the media says that it's you know, hey,
Speaker 15: it's it's there was a mixed I would love to
Speaker 15: hear what Dad says again, did say there was a
Speaker 15: mixed group of people in the crowd? Oh buy that
Speaker 15: there's a mixed group of people in the city.
Speaker 8: Take a look at the video.
Speaker 16: The video doesn't lie.
Speaker 15: And for Teresa theeg you know, she sounded like a schoolmarm.
Speaker 15: She sounded like a substitute teacher that would sit there
Speaker 15: and wag her chubby finger at us kids in the class.
Speaker 15: She didn't have one solution about what she was going
Speaker 15: to do different. With the power given to her, with
Speaker 15: with her her position of authority, all she can do
Speaker 15: is wag her finger and say that this is unacceptable
Speaker 15: and somehow bitch at the people of Cincinnati that it's
Speaker 15: unacceptable that there was only one nine one one call.
Speaker 15: You know what's unacceptable is there was no cops in
Speaker 15: the area, and that's at her feet.
Speaker 8: Yeah, that's her responsibility.
Speaker 3: The extra troll shift ended at two am, and of
Speaker 3: course this unfolded shortly after three am, so I guess
Speaker 3: the cops have been pulled from the streets by that time.
Speaker 3: But maybe we have. She stumbled upon a solution, Jay,
Speaker 3: after we've already banned the red bikes and the motorized
Speaker 3: scooters during certain hours of the night, maybe we just
Speaker 3: need to get rid of the service of alcohol. Let's
Speaker 3: just shut the bars down. Then we won't have any
Speaker 3: alcohol related incidents happening, assuming alcohol was related, and that's
Speaker 3: an assumption they haven't looked into yet. I appreciate it, Jay,
Speaker 3: Mississippi James, no time for you right now, but if
Speaker 3: you don't mind holding I'll be happy to get your
Speaker 3: call right after the top of the hour news.

Speaker 3: parlance for uncle Tom. So it irked him. And he's
Speaker 3: been called Uncle Tom many times. And he's always quick
Speaker 3: to defend himself and a good job defending himself, he does. Callers,

Speaker 3: an outspoken critic of Greater Cincinnati or the brother of
Speaker 3: the Cincinnati administration. He's taken shots at the city manager,
Speaker 3: mayor aftab pervall other elected officials, and of course has
Speaker 3: very very profound comments and beliefs about policing in downtown
Speaker 3: Cincinnati and what should be done versus what's actually going on.
Speaker 3: He's got some really viral Facebook commentaries and they're fantastic.
Speaker 3: So Andre. At seven thirty Inside Scoop with Bright Bart
Speaker 3: News eight h five with tech editor Colin maynine on
Speaker 3: the brawl in the City, National News It made many
Speaker 3: New York a man in New York using artificial intelligence

Speaker 3: GTP or GPT. Finally, the Daniel Davis Deep Dive at

Speaker 3: to the phones five one, three, seven, four, nine fifty
Speaker 3: eight hundred and eight two to three talk order in
Speaker 3: which they received Mississippi James, thanks for holding over the break,
Speaker 3: my friend. It's always good to hear from Hippol's well
Speaker 3: in your world.
Speaker 18: Hey, doctor Brian, I come in peace. I love everybody,
Speaker 18: and there's nothing you can do about it.
Speaker 1: Amen.
Speaker 3: I love your message.
Speaker 18: All right, So Cincinnati made national news.
Speaker 3: Yes, sir, the people down.
Speaker 18: Here in Mississippi aksing me. Is it safe for me
Speaker 18: to come back up there? I say, boy, Mississippi acxing
Speaker 18: is a safe to come to Cincinnati. I just say,
Speaker 18: there's so much going on, so many moving parts, you know,
Speaker 18: so you just hit your wagon to whichever one you
Speaker 18: want to energize you. Sometime you down the hills, sometime
Speaker 18: you get momentum. Yeah, I keep going going and try
Speaker 18: to sort it out.
Speaker 5: Yep.
Speaker 3: And I'll be the first to observe James that, you
Speaker 3: know what, look at any city in the country on
Speaker 3: any given day, you're gonna find something bad going on.
Speaker 3: It's like yesterday, when I was talking, I got an
Speaker 3: email from a guy in Davenport, Iowa. He said they
Speaker 3: had a festival and a similar incident happened in Davenport, Iowa.
Speaker 3: It's like peaceful Davenport, Iowa. Yeah, it can hit the
Speaker 3: fan there as well.
Speaker 18: So I don't seem like what I can piece that
Speaker 18: was almost an isolated accident. Seemed like a festival went
Speaker 18: off decent and then whatever happened in that moment of
Speaker 18: whatever is not clear yet, but uh, you know, people's
Speaker 18: spread it up and winding it out and make it
Speaker 18: cover so much so you have to be careful how
Speaker 18: you describe it.
Speaker 3: Yes, sir, absolutely, Let cooler heads prevail, James, let cooler
Speaker 3: heads prevail. Always good to hear from you, my friend.
Speaker 3: Look forward to having you back in time when you
Speaker 3: make it. Let's pivot over to the phone. Former Anderson
Speaker 3: Township trustee Drew Pappas. Always a pleasure to hear from you, sir.
Speaker 3: Welcome to the morning show, Ryan.
Speaker 11: What a show you have lined up to they I
Speaker 11: mean you you're probably going to stretch it to six hours.
Speaker 13: You have so much information post out there today, listen,
Speaker 13: so many ways to go on this story.
Speaker 11: Out of Cincinnati is people are contacting me from all
Speaker 11: over the country. Hey, Cincinnati's in the news, and you
Speaker 11: know it's it's national news. Things pop out, I guess
Speaker 11: the direction I want to go in, And a lot
Speaker 11: of people lamant. They're saying, oh my god, everything's politics.
Speaker 11: Why is this political? Why is this politics? You could
Speaker 11: have seen this coming in a way.
Speaker 13: The incident, yes occur, you mentioned it yourself.
Speaker 11: Bad things happen in every community, right What what we
Speaker 11: are questioning and what needs to be questioned is the
Speaker 11: not necessarily the police response.
Speaker 13: Because the police can only do as they're directed by
Speaker 13: their leadership, but the where how are they directed? How
Speaker 13: many authors ron duty? You had three major events going
Speaker 13: on downtown Cincinnati. What was the coverage?
Speaker 11: Single ninety signal ninety nine on Facebook has done a
Speaker 11: remarkable job doing some digging. Unlike our local press, which
Speaker 11: describes do you ever wonder why when there is a
Speaker 11: incident like this?
Speaker 13: They describe it.
Speaker 11: The local press and national media say it's an isolated incident.
Speaker 4: Yes it is.
Speaker 13: But when one police officer has a either a bad.
Speaker 11: Reaction to a incident, a traffic stop, whatever, much like
Speaker 11: might have happened in the Covington Bridge. That's that's an epidemic.
Speaker 11: That's a police epidemic. We have an epidemic of police violence,
Speaker 11: but not an isolated incident. Think of the millions of
Speaker 11: police interactions every day in this country and one of
Speaker 11: them is not described as an isolated incident. It just
Speaker 11: yet another reason why the let starts crowing about defunding
Speaker 11: or reimagining police.
Speaker 13: Do you ever wonder about that? Maybe that's political bias,
Speaker 13: media bias. Yes, they think it is.
Speaker 8: They think it is.
Speaker 13: And you know, I'd like to say something else. You
Speaker 13: mentioned mayor Aftab?
Speaker 11: Okay, how long did he wait before he issued some
Speaker 11: well crafted probably I would say, uh, screened or at
Speaker 11: least checked for results.
Speaker 8: You know, what is that poll checked?
Speaker 4: Uh?
Speaker 13: Statement out there?
Speaker 3: He read it through legal correct And I'd like to ask.
Speaker 13: One other question. You mentioned it as well, but I'm
Speaker 13: going to ask it as well.
Speaker 11: Where is Aftab? I noticed I noticed you did a
Speaker 11: zoom thing. Was is he is he on a you know,
Speaker 11: a political junket?
Speaker 8: Is he is he lying?
Speaker 19: You know?
Speaker 11: It is the political season coming up? Is he meeting
Speaker 11: somewhere with the power of the Democrat powers that be
Speaker 11: that might.
Speaker 13: Be grooming him for the seems to be.
Speaker 11: Always has the eye on the next rung of the
Speaker 11: ladder rather than the current step of the ladder that
Speaker 11: he occupies. I so many questions, and as far as
Speaker 11: it being political, this is what happens.
Speaker 13: Elections have consequences.
Speaker 11: You elect people that don't put police at the priority,
Speaker 11: public safety as the priority. You could see this coming
Speaker 11: down the road because what do we have. We have
Speaker 11: week leadership, we have weak prosecutor. I'm not going to
Speaker 11: say necessarily prosecute that remains to be seen, but seems
Speaker 11: to be weak prosecutor that would rather be out protesting
Speaker 11: than standing with police, protesting tesla dealerships.
Speaker 13: Remember that.
Speaker 20: And I would say also that you have judges, a
Speaker 20: history now of judges doing just remarkably weak bonds, having
Speaker 20: weak sentences, and not.
Speaker 13: Putting a priority on supporting the police.
Speaker 11: Did dare I mentioned how the police are treated in
Speaker 11: some courtrooms here in Cincinnati. Yeah, I mean this is predictable, folks.
Speaker 11: Elections have consequences. You might not like the fact that
Speaker 11: this has gone political because it's a terrible incident.
Speaker 13: I saw they arrested five people. Would my question was
Speaker 13: that five or five dozen.
Speaker 11: I just don't understand how you cannot make the very
Speaker 11: clear connection. Sadly, this is political because elections have consequences,
Speaker 11: and you know what, That's why many people don't want
Speaker 11: to go downtown.
Speaker 13: That's why many.
Speaker 11: People have left downtown and moved out to the conservative run,
Speaker 11: conservative led, largely Republican suburbs of Cincinnati where they were
Speaker 11: where the local leadership puts public safety as the number
Speaker 11: one priority and responsibility of any government. Like there you go,
Speaker 11: like Anderson, like Anderson Township, like Anderson Township, like Green Township,
Speaker 11: like Sycamore town I can mention you know all the
Speaker 11: townships around Cincinnati that.
Speaker 21: Are largely largely conservative run, Republican run, where the number
Speaker 21: one priority of any government, anytime you have anyone in office,
Speaker 21: the first priority, the main priority is public safety.
Speaker 13: Everything else flows from that.
Speaker 5: It does.
Speaker 11: Shiny toys are great, Okay, street cars are great if
Speaker 11: you can afford them.
Speaker 5: That stuff comes after the fact.
Speaker 13: Got to have public safety first. You've got to support
Speaker 13: the police.
Speaker 3: The police have to know that they are supported by
Speaker 3: their administration.
Speaker 13: They're not going to be second guests. You're not gonna
Speaker 13: be micromanaged, You're not going to have someone looking over
Speaker 13: their shoulder every second.
Speaker 8: Of the day.
Speaker 11: We need proactive rather than reactive policing. Need to get
Speaker 11: back to that the broken window theory. And I mean,
Speaker 11: I tell you this is predictable as the day is long.
Speaker 3: Well you know what drew as you say that it
Speaker 3: is predictable. Now what do we have as a guide Now?
Speaker 3: I always make this argument when it comes to people
Speaker 3: who embrace socialism. Every time it's been tried, it has
Speaker 3: resulted in a catastrope topic failure of economies across this
Speaker 3: great planet of ours. Every country has gone down that road.
Speaker 3: Look see what happened over there. We shouldn't do that
Speaker 3: because it doesn't work. We could do that with this
Speaker 3: no defund the police. Look at Portland, look at Los Angeles,
Speaker 3: look at San Francisco, look a look at all the
Speaker 3: places where they pursued this sort of you know idea
Speaker 3: that we need to rethink or reimagine police. In the
Speaker 3: anthemath that aftermath that George Floyd and all the protests
Speaker 3: about police departments being so racist, well okay, let's get
Speaker 3: rid of the racist. But you know the idea of
Speaker 3: getting rid of police is stupid, and we knew it
Speaker 3: was stupid, and you know it's going to end up
Speaker 3: in a bad way because we got all these cities
Speaker 3: out there that have done this in advance of our
Speaker 3: embracing the concept, and their cities have gone gone into
Speaker 3: the toilet.
Speaker 13: I'd like to mention something else.
Speaker 5: I saw some I saw.
Speaker 11: I saw that Bernie Marino released a statement. I saw
Speaker 11: the Vicar Ramaswami not only released the statement, he said
Speaker 11: he spoke to the victim. I have yet to see
Speaker 11: if aft have pur Ball has contacted any of the
Speaker 11: victims as of.
Speaker 3: Yesterday, as yesterday yesterday.
Speaker 11: No, I'd like to ask another question, is Greg Lansman
Speaker 11: getting another tattoo for the up and coming new spread
Speaker 11: on the cover of the Cincinnati Inquiry.
Speaker 13: Is that where he's at.
Speaker 11: I'd yet to see him release a statement or even
Speaker 11: have a statement, or see if anyone's contacted.
Speaker 13: Uh, But he is contacted the victims.
Speaker 4: Yes.
Speaker 22: Do I go down the political road, Of course I do,
Speaker 22: because as I said before, this is squarely and solely
Speaker 22: the result of political choices elections made by the electorate
Speaker 22: in this municipality, in this in this area and then
Speaker 22: this one being Cincinnati, And as I said, elections have consequences,
Speaker 22: and you are bearing the fruit of the rotten tree
Speaker 22: that you planted in Cincinnati.
Speaker 3: Well, you know what you should be around at seven
Speaker 3: point thirty when Andre Ewing joins the program in studio,
Speaker 3: he shares your vision about a change of administration, and
Speaker 3: he is will be he is not pulling any punches
Speaker 3: on that concept.
Speaker 1: True. Well, it's time.
Speaker 11: It's I'm to talk for tough talk, straight talk. That's
Speaker 11: what the people of Since today deserve. That's what the
Speaker 11: people of Hamilton County deserve, South Ohio to southeast Ohio deserve.
Speaker 11: Because I'll tell you what this needs to stop, and
Speaker 11: we need to get serious and have some discussions. You
Speaker 11: can build all the stadiums you want downtown, you can
Speaker 11: put all the rest fancy restaurants you want downtown, but
Speaker 11: without safety, without security, no one is going to go
Speaker 11: take part in those in those activities.
Speaker 3: And that's sad, exactly. It's a profound point you make there, Drew,
Speaker 3: God bless you. There always pleasure hearing from you. Coming
Speaker 3: up with six nineteen. Got a couple other callers online.

Speaker 3: Happy Tuesday.
Speaker 23: Thanks Brian, good morning. Of course, this is appalling what's
Speaker 23: happened in Cincinnati, but unfortunately this is a pervasive attitude
Speaker 23: in the schools as well, no discipline, no suspension, no
Speaker 23: calling parents, and no calling parents to you know, help
Speaker 23: get their kids under control. It's it's a toxic attitude
Speaker 23: and unfortunately it's impacting our kids obviously.

Speaker 10: Yes, if they were the ones that were beat down,
Speaker 10: you would hear from Greg. Why haven't we heard from
Speaker 10: our representative?
Speaker 3: That's a good question. Why did it take mayor. I
Speaker 3: have to have Purvoll two days to issue his statement
Speaker 3: basically just generally condemning violence, which is brilliant, pretty easy
Speaker 3: statement to embrace. Don't think anybody's gonna probably go ahead.
Speaker 5: He's probably been on the phone with the Justice Department
Speaker 5: whole time.
Speaker 3: You cracked me up, Bobby, he cracked me up. Have
Speaker 3: a great day, my friend, faith, family, flag, freedom, and
Speaker 3: of course firearms. I'll sum up the tail end of

Speaker 3: always giving Christopher Smith and an opportunity to defend his
Speaker 3: good name and reputation. He's always insightful and thoughtful. Former
Speaker 3: Vice Mayor of the City of Cincinnati. Coming off the
Speaker 3: heels of yesterday's Spleen event where you were on fire,
Speaker 3: Welcome back, Christopher. Good to have you on the show today.
Speaker 4: Oh thank you Brian for giving me a little bit
Speaker 4: more time. And I've been listening to the show and
Speaker 4: one of the things that always inspires me is, you know,
Speaker 4: really the your listening audience being so dialed in and
Speaker 4: on point, and I mean that, and so, like, first
Speaker 4: of all, I agree that I've been listening to a
Speaker 4: lot of excuses over the last twenty four hours, like
Speaker 4: this notion that people were overserved and therefore we're going
Speaker 4: to go after bars and restaurants, and that then is
Speaker 4: what caused the mayhem in downtown Cincinnati. We've been watching
Speaker 4: this kind of behavior, despicable behavior where young people and
Speaker 4: young adults have been surrounding citizens that they've been walking
Speaker 4: downtown and jumping them indiscriminately and knocking them out. And
Speaker 4: so first the mayor knew this before he went to Cleveland,
Speaker 4: that this was happening. And then yeah, he's in Cleveland.
Speaker 4: He was at a mayor's conference, hob nobby out of town,
Speaker 4: and so he's been making phone calls and conference call Again,
Speaker 4: it reminds me of the La mayor during the fires
Speaker 4: where she went to Africa, right, and then she wondering,
Speaker 4: why are you leaving the city in a time where
Speaker 4: things are on fire. What I'm trying to continue to
Speaker 4: articulate is the mayor knew that we were having problems
Speaker 4: in downtown. This was one This was a weekend where
Speaker 4: three or four events were happening at the same time.
Speaker 8: He would think he would put.
Speaker 4: His political meeting on hold and stay here and do
Speaker 4: his job. He didn't. He was out of town and
Speaker 4: that's why he was disconnected and had continued to be
Speaker 4: disconnected on what is going.
Speaker 8: On in the in the city of Cincinnati.
Speaker 4: But then, but then you have political figures downtown saying
Speaker 4: that the white male used the in words that's what
Speaker 4: caused the mayhem. And so they're floating these these speculative
Speaker 4: comments going, well, did you have you have that on video?
Speaker 8: There's a lot of stuff on video.
Speaker 4: Do you have any of that on audio? No, I
Speaker 4: don't have an artist. That's just what somebody told me.
Speaker 4: I said, Now, why would you go out publicly as
Speaker 4: an elected official and say something that outrageous. Here's most
Speaker 4: likely what happened that there was an altercation between two men.
Speaker 4: We don't know what that altercation was about, right, and
Speaker 4: you would think mono to mono they would be a fight,
Speaker 4: maybe people could disagree, but not fifty people jumping on
Speaker 4: one person, right, And to see the women that were
Speaker 4: kicking that man in the head, not just the men,
Speaker 4: but the women that were kicking that man in the
Speaker 4: head that was attempting murder, right, And then when they
Speaker 4: punch the woman in the face, the grown man who
Speaker 4: punched the woman in the face. And you've heard the
Speaker 4: Vice President of the United States now bring comment about that. Right,
Speaker 4: How can anybody in their right mind, Brian Thomas, justify that,
Speaker 4: Like there are people out here trying to make right
Speaker 4: of something that is wrong. If I could call out
Speaker 4: any African American leader in this town, and I would say,
Speaker 4: we must do a better job of policing ourselves. We
Speaker 4: have to be able to as leaders say that was
Speaker 4: just wrong and not leave this space out here in
Speaker 4: the universe that in some way we can justify that
Speaker 4: really bad behavior that we witnessed on the videotape. And
Speaker 4: I think one of your callers said that we're watching
Speaker 4: the video tape, we see what's happening. Why do people
Speaker 4: keep trying to tell us to not believe our eyes
Speaker 4: and our ears.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's all legitimate points. Christopher mean everybody's looking for
Speaker 3: an excuse. And that's that's going back to the point
Speaker 3: that I've made, and I've made many times. If okay,
Speaker 3: let's just say for the sake of discussion that you know,
Speaker 3: you've got a lot of problems in your neighborhood, and
Speaker 3: it's brought about because the white man's oppression or whatever.
Speaker 3: How does going out into the world and beating the
Speaker 3: living crap out of another human being that has no
Speaker 3: connection with your world or your environment or your situation
Speaker 3: do anything to better the situation. It's just only going
Speaker 3: to bring about worse conditions, because you know, the ripple
Speaker 3: effect of something like this is like it's happened in
Speaker 3: other major cities with major crime problems, people leave, businesses
Speaker 3: shut down, tax revenue dries up, exacerbating perhaps an already
Speaker 3: bad situation brought about by whatever reason existed or exists.
Speaker 3: It just makes matters worse. I mean absolutely, Sex thirty nine.
Speaker 3: Ifift you have KCD talk station, I always enjoy talking
Speaker 3: with Christopher Smithman and a second opportunity during st there
Speaker 3: this morning right now, Christopher, I didn't mean to cut
Speaker 3: you off. We had to take a quick break there,
Speaker 3: so you had the floor. My friend.
Speaker 8: Brother.
Speaker 4: This was a hate crime, and I want to be
Speaker 4: very clear about that.
Speaker 8: I'm an African American man.
Speaker 4: People who are listening to this station who don't know
Speaker 4: that this was a hate crime. These were African Americans
Speaker 4: downtown who targeted white people. I have a video that
Speaker 4: I just put up yesterday on my ex page where
Speaker 4: a white man looks like he's kind of walking over
Speaker 4: to have a conversation. The person video taping says, oh, oh, oh, oh,
Speaker 4: put him to sleep. Put him the sleep. They punched
Speaker 4: him in the face. We're not even talking about that video.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I know the one you're talking about. You know
Speaker 3: that was racially motivated at least presumably so, because the
Speaker 3: video camera is already rolling and then you got that
Speaker 3: verbal cue. They it was a setup. I'm going to
Speaker 3: record you engaging in. I think they call that the
Speaker 3: knockout game, where you just walk up and randomly punch
Speaker 3: a stranger and knock him out to the ground.
Speaker 4: That's right. And then the person is a person on
Speaker 4: the video that says, karma, karma, this is karma. And
Speaker 4: then they say, don't come out at night. You shouldn't
Speaker 4: be out here at night, right, And then and then
Speaker 4: you see a black man dragging him. First of all,
Speaker 4: a black woman kind of steps over him and kind
Speaker 4: of brushes him with her feet. That was her way
Speaker 4: of saying, you're insignificant, you're nothing but trash. So then
Speaker 4: a man then grabs the white man by his feet
Speaker 4: and they drag him in the middle of the street.
Speaker 4: And he's still he's still knocked out, and he doesn't
Speaker 4: even know what the hell happened. Right then you see
Speaker 4: then you see an African American man come to his
Speaker 4: aid up. He helps them up, and you see him
Speaker 4: trying to provide some protection for him. That was a
Speaker 4: absolute target by those African American citizens against that white
Speaker 4: man because of his race. And so this this notion
Speaker 4: that this wasn't a hate crime. And let me tell
Speaker 4: you something, if this was reversed and I saw a
Speaker 4: group of white people doing the same thing to black people,
Speaker 4: I would be on this station saying that was a
Speaker 4: hate crime, meaning I would say I would be calling
Speaker 4: a ball a ball and a striker strike. What is
Speaker 4: so frustrating for me is that you have the Democrats
Speaker 4: down there at City Hall, the nine of them, the
Speaker 4: nine of his a council, and the mayor that keep
Speaker 4: trying to make excuses for this bad behavior. They're talking
Speaker 4: about Now it was alcohol, or somebody used the N word,
Speaker 4: which now you know triggers like this was okay, this
Speaker 4: was okay behavior, or this had nothing to do with
Speaker 4: the music festival, all of these things that they keep
Speaker 4: asserting that are not at the route that they do
Speaker 4: not have control of crime in our city. Number one.
Speaker 4: Number two, that this absolutely should be investigated as a
Speaker 4: hate crime, and that there should be federal charges in
Speaker 4: federal court, just like if this was reverse and there
Speaker 4: were a group of white people that have surrounded black
Speaker 4: people and beat the hell out of them in downtown Cincinnati.
Speaker 4: And so that's why I liked that the Vice president
Speaker 4: spoke out about it. We've got to be equal handed
Speaker 4: with these things, and those people who engaged in the
Speaker 4: most hateous part of this crime should be charged with
Speaker 4: a hate crime and should be facing twenty years to
Speaker 4: life in prison in federal court. Period.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Well, and I am on record, I'm not the guy
Speaker 3: who believes there even should be a law for hate crime.
Speaker 3: To me, if you commit an act of violence like this,
Speaker 3: clearly there is hatred there. I mean it transcends race
Speaker 3: and everything else. We've added on additional charges for actions
Speaker 3: of violence which are already criminal, right because they involve race.
Speaker 3: I mean, I you know, say what you want about it.
Speaker 3: That's my take. That's just my take on it.
Speaker 9: The law.
Speaker 4: You're a lawyer, Brian, I'm not a lawyer. You're a lawyer,
Speaker 4: so I understand what you're saying. You're saying. Listen, this
Speaker 4: was a violent crime. It stands alone. Layered on top
Speaker 4: of it, there could be a racial component to it
Speaker 4: that could add more severity to the charges than the crimes.
Speaker 3: And those laws are on the books. I'm not denying
Speaker 3: they're not on the books. I just I always feel
Speaker 3: like I need to interject my personal feelings about that.
Speaker 4: No, No, I understand it. I'm saying, if if it's
Speaker 4: good for the goose, is good for the gamers. We've
Speaker 4: got to be able to call this stuff out because
Speaker 4: if we don't, this is what is frustrating me about
Speaker 4: African American leaders that are on city Council. I know,
Speaker 4: if this was reversed, I know, if there were a
Speaker 4: group of white people who had surrounded some black people
Speaker 4: downtown and beat the hell out of them, that we
Speaker 4: would have people at the county level, the county commission level,
Speaker 4: at the city council level, and the mayor's office would
Speaker 4: all be demanding that the federal government coming here and
Speaker 4: file all the criminal charges of assault that you're talking about.
Speaker 4: But they would say, I want to add in on
Speaker 4: the books that this was a hate crime. That's what
Speaker 4: I want to be on the record saying, as one
Speaker 4: leader who doesn't speak for the African American community, I
Speaker 4: speak for myself who happens to be African American, that
Speaker 4: this was a hate crime my eyes, what I heard,
Speaker 4: what I saw, the severity of the injuries of the
Speaker 4: people that were attacked, we don't even know if they're
Speaker 4: going to live, meaning, we don't know what the long
Speaker 4: term implications are of what happened to the young lady Holly.
Speaker 4: We now know her first name because the VEK spoke
Speaker 4: to her and extended his support to her, But we
Speaker 4: don't know what her long term health impact is going
Speaker 4: to be from being punched in the face and knocked
Speaker 4: out and hitting the concrete the way she did. We
Speaker 4: don't know what's going to happen to that white man
Speaker 4: who is being kicked in the head his head was
Speaker 4: a football that night, stumped down like that. I haven't
Speaker 4: heard the leaders I'm talking about, whoever is held a
Speaker 4: press conference really bring light to those human beings that
Speaker 4: were being dehumanized in the middle of the street like
Speaker 4: they were animals. They were treated worse than dogs, the
Speaker 4: way they were stumped down in the street. We've got
Speaker 4: to have leadership that caused this craziness out. I wish
Speaker 4: there were other African American leaders in this town that
Speaker 4: would just stand up and say, not only was it
Speaker 4: wrong right and call out the bad behavior, but say
Speaker 4: it was a hate crime. And man that the federal
Speaker 4: government coming here and press charges against everybody who people
Speaker 4: who are videotaping it, I think that they are a
Speaker 4: part of it. The people who are doing the kicking,
Speaker 4: I think they were a part of it. And I
Speaker 4: think we should confiscate all of their cell phones and
Speaker 4: figure out who said what when and continue to charge everybody.
Speaker 4: And I think, Brian, if we don't do that, this
Speaker 4: is gonna happen again, Brian Talmins, and this time, and
Speaker 4: this time it's gonna be me and you. We're just
Speaker 4: walking downtown having dinner. We're gonna be surrounded and a
Speaker 4: group of people are gonna think they could just take
Speaker 4: away our rights and beat the hell out of us
Speaker 4: in the middle of the street. And by the way,
Speaker 4: I'm on record telling you I'm not gonna take it.
Speaker 4: I'm not that guy that you're gonna just surround and
Speaker 4: beat and take. I'm gonna concealed carry I'm not gonna
Speaker 4: take this kind of beatdown. Those people did not deserve it.
Speaker 4: Those human beings did not deserve what was dished out
Speaker 4: in downtown Cincinnati. And I'm tired of the mayor. I'm
Speaker 4: tired of even I like Beiji. I'm tired of the
Speaker 4: police chief. I'm tired of the city council worried about
Speaker 4: the economics. They're worried about people coming downtown to the
Speaker 4: music festival, coming to the restaurant. We've already determined we're
Speaker 4: not going downtown. City leaders, you cannot keep us safe.
Speaker 4: We're not coming down to any restaurants. I'm not going
Speaker 4: to a ball gay. I'm not going to send my
Speaker 4: precious daughter down there with her friends. I'm worried about
Speaker 4: her being attacked. We've already established that what they should
Speaker 4: be doing right now. Brian Thomas is saying, we're going
Speaker 4: to make sure this never happens again by holding everybody
Speaker 4: accountable to the fullest extent.
Speaker 13: Of the law.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and you know, talk about reimagining the police. How
Speaker 3: about reimagining police? Am I putting them on the streets
Speaker 3: in critical times when lots and lots and lots of
Speaker 3: people are enjoying multiple activities going on and enjoying the
Speaker 3: Dora District late at night and congregating right there. We
Speaker 3: all know where the folks are going to be gathered.
Speaker 3: Let's put some cops on the streets there. And yet
Speaker 3: you know you wait, wait till you.
Speaker 4: Hear nothing takes from that what you just said that
Speaker 4: is so critical as a solution. Well, there was a
Speaker 4: woman that came on. I gave Lincoln Ware an interview yesterday,
Speaker 4: which has been very rare, but I gave him an
Speaker 4: interview yesterday to talk about this that we got to
Speaker 4: as our community called this out call a ball a
Speaker 4: ball and a strike a strike. One of the city employees,
Speaker 4: her name is Irish Rowley, somebody who's done some good
Speaker 4: work around the collaborative agreement, but clearly does not like
Speaker 4: the police department. If you ask the command staff if
Speaker 4: you ask the everyday police officer out there, do you
Speaker 4: think Irish Roly supports you? Right now, we're not talking
Speaker 4: about her calling out bad behavior. We're talking broadly. Well,
Speaker 4: the mayor has hired her, the city manager has hired her.
Speaker 4: I don't believe she should be on the air ever
Speaker 4: talking about these matters without disclosing that she's being compensated
Speaker 4: by the City of Cincinnati. But this is not a
Speaker 4: person who has had a most recent history. If you
Speaker 4: ask the FOP president, if you ask a police officer
Speaker 4: officer out there, is this somebody that supports the police.
Speaker 4: It's not somebody that does that. This is somebody that's
Speaker 4: out here who is from what I heard yesterday, and
Speaker 4: her commentary is justifying the behavior, the bad behavior as
Speaker 4: a city employee. So such a bad look for the mayor,
Speaker 4: such a bad look for the city manager to have
Speaker 4: her out there being paid and really basically saying that
Speaker 4: what happened to those white people is okay.
Speaker 3: They in other words, they deserve what they got.
Speaker 4: Correct. That's from the mayor's office, that's from the city
Speaker 4: manager's office. That's who they're hiring down there, and they
Speaker 4: should be very cautious about keeping her off the radio
Speaker 4: while we're trying to sort this thing out. Well, I
Speaker 4: want people to know that her name is Irish Rollie,
Speaker 4: and I just don't think she should be on the
Speaker 4: air representing the mayor and the city manager acting as
Speaker 4: if what happened to those white people in the middle
Speaker 4: of our downtown was okay. Actually, also know that she
Speaker 4: has a history of not supporting the police.
Speaker 3: That is well demonstrated. I know who you're talking about,
Speaker 3: but let's face it, we have a free speech in
Speaker 3: this world. And quite honestly, Christopher, I'm glad she came
Speaker 3: out and was so brutally honest and saying she thinks
Speaker 3: they deserve it, and that we know she is on
Speaker 3: the mayor's staff. That's good. Now we have a perspective
Speaker 3: on what the mayor's office perspective is and who he
Speaker 3: surrounds him with. So that's good information to know, Christopher.
Speaker 3: So thank you Lincoln Ware for having her on the show.
Speaker 4: Yes, let me and let me say, Brian, those weren't
Speaker 4: her exact words, but it was the implication that in
Speaker 4: some way, let's justify what has happened. I appreciate the time,
Speaker 4: I appreciate the time. Brother, We're going to get to
Speaker 4: the bottom of it, and let's look for charges federal crime,
Speaker 4: federal court.
Speaker 3: Always love him and you on, Christopher, God bless you.
Speaker 3: We'll talk again, God bless you. Check often for what's developing.
Speaker 19: Developing out of the Middle East now right now it's developing.
Speaker 3: Fifty five JRC the Talk station to shy seven six
Speaker 3: Here fifty five KR City Talk Station. Looking forward to
Speaker 3: this segment all morning. Always enjoy hearing from our favorite
Speaker 3: Ken Blackwell. And he really needs no introduction from my
Speaker 3: listening audience. Bye bye. Way of background, former mayor of
Speaker 3: the City of Cincinnati, Ohio State Treasurer and High Secretary
Speaker 3: of State. He's an activist, he's an author, and he's
Speaker 3: with the American First Policy Institute as the chair of
Speaker 3: the Center for Election Integrity. He is Ken Blackwell. Ken,
Speaker 3: thank you so much for green to spend some time
Speaker 3: with my listeners.
Speaker 13: And me this morning.
Speaker 8: Brian, it's always good to be with.
Speaker 3: You, always a pleasure having you on and right out
Speaker 3: of the gate. Of course, you know what happened on
Speaker 3: early Saturday morning here in the city of Cincinnati. The
Speaker 3: beatdown experienced by two people we don't know what led
Speaker 3: to the beatdown, But no one can justify it, and
Speaker 3: it doesn't seem to be that many people are trying
Speaker 3: to justify it, although some are how it could be justified.
Speaker 3: I have no idea. No one is deserving of that
Speaker 3: kind of treatment, most notably the woman who got punched
Speaker 3: Kolcock right in the face by some guy. Your response,
Speaker 3: your reaction, and I know you've digested mayor aftab provols
Speaker 3: very late in the game, reaction to the incident. What's
Speaker 3: your take on this, Ken Blackwell, what my take is
Speaker 3: that the.
Speaker 16: First obligation of local governments is to provide safe neighborhoods
Speaker 16: and safe streets. And it doesn't take a rocket scientist
Speaker 16: to know that Cincinnati is experiencing arise in street crime.
Speaker 16: Now there are those who would say, well, it's not
Speaker 16: valent crime, but one o the things that you, you know,
Speaker 16: if you've been around on the basis a little bit,
Speaker 16: is that if you reward or ignore bad behavior, or
Speaker 16: you're going to get this more bad behavior and the escalation.
Speaker 16: So the first thing is that we we have to
Speaker 16: admit that we have a problem in terms of the
Speaker 16: situation itself. You know, no matter how you explain if
Speaker 16: it started out as a fight between two people, that
Speaker 16: to fight between two people. But you know, unless you're
Speaker 16: going to us not to believe our lie in eyes,
Speaker 16: what we what we saw was that what might have
Speaker 16: started us a fight between two people escalated into a mob.
Speaker 16: I can't a beatdown which can never be which can
Speaker 16: never be justified. And the and the and the reality
Speaker 16: is is that if you start to excuse this, uh,
Speaker 16: it means that you you ignore the fact, uh that
Speaker 16: Cincinnati has a problem. And the first I mean local
Speaker 16: leaders should inspire, hope, create the opportunity and bring people together.
Speaker 16: And there's been a failure in bringing people together in
Speaker 16: terms of respecting each other's human human dignity. We have
Speaker 16: a challenge, and if we try to downsize it in
Speaker 16: terms of how we define it and this define it,
Speaker 16: the problem is just going to get worse. Well, as
Speaker 16: I've told you on a number of casions, Brian, great
Speaker 16: cities are not the products of great governments, but rather
Speaker 16: the products of good people doing great things together. And
Speaker 16: that's a challenge in Cincinnati right now.
Speaker 3: Well, and it seems to be driven at least over
Speaker 3: the last i'd say maybe ten years or so the
Speaker 3: politics of division. Everyone, you're divided. You're divided. You're not
Speaker 3: in this group, you're not part of my group.
Speaker 5: I hate you.
Speaker 3: You you must agree with me or you're not. I
Speaker 3: mean that it's it's as if there is this concerted
Speaker 3: effort and I'm going to point to the left hand
Speaker 3: side of the ledger for stirring the pot of division.
Speaker 3: It doesn't matter on what subject matter. LGBTQ plus division, division,
Speaker 3: Donald Trump, evil Orange Man division, division, it's just division.
Speaker 3: And then of course there's this racial element that it
Speaker 3: stirred in there. Police are inherently racist. Division. You like
Speaker 3: the police, then you're a racist. I mean, that's the
Speaker 3: mantra we've been hearing now for a long time.
Speaker 16: Ken It's it's it's it's a real problem, and it
Speaker 16: starts to reveal itself.
Speaker 8: And in numbers.
Speaker 16: I mean, there is a decline in our recruits of
Speaker 16: folks to serve as officers or the piece of of
Speaker 16: police officers on on our on our street. Uh, there
Speaker 16: is a real declinent in the morale of those.
Speaker 8: Who are on board.
Speaker 9: Uh.
Speaker 16: How how many times can you here, you know, uh,
Speaker 16: kill the pigs, you know, defund the police. Uh And
Speaker 16: and time after time, you you watch a judicial system
Speaker 16: that is divided. Half of the judges, you know, use
Speaker 16: our apprehensions of criminals and our criminal justice system as
Speaker 16: a revolving door uh mechanism. And and so folks are
Speaker 16: arrested and put right back on a street, cause problems,
Speaker 16: human misery, uh. And you and you only have half
Speaker 16: of our judges that understand that it is in the
Speaker 16: in keeping with their responsibility to provide safe streets and
Speaker 16: safe neighborhoods.
Speaker 3: And that seems to be where the biggest breakdown is
Speaker 3: and that results, you know, going back to law enforcement.
Speaker 3: If the police on the streets are the ones that
Speaker 3: you know, pick up the bad guys, whether they witness
Speaker 3: the crime or not. They're there to find the suspects.
Speaker 3: They present them to the prosecutor's office. And if you
Speaker 3: have a zealous prosecutor, that only goes so far. If
Speaker 3: they end up in front of a liberal judge, they're
Speaker 3: out on no bond. And then of course if they
Speaker 3: get sentenced because they're convicted or and are a plea deal,
Speaker 3: they're let out on the streets with little or no
Speaker 3: penalty to pay. There's the bottom line. It's the judicial system.
Speaker 16: Right, and and and it has a compounding effect. You know,
Speaker 16: I've worked with some of the nation's leading economic thinkers,
Speaker 16: and one of the simple things that you understand as
Speaker 16: a local leader that's concerned with the economic prosperity uh
Speaker 16: and the safety of your community is that capital seeks
Speaker 16: the path of least distance and greatest opportunity. And capital
Speaker 16: hates crime, yes, and so so what what happens is
Speaker 16: that when you have lots of days ago left leaning,
Speaker 16: stupid approach to crime fighting and and the creation of
Speaker 16: safe communities, there's no way that you're going to get
Speaker 16: the uh investment of capital uh to expand your economy,
Speaker 16: create jobs, put your people uh to work uh. And
Speaker 16: and as a consequence, you just see things, you know,
Speaker 16: getting worse and worse, and populations. You know, when you
Speaker 16: when you are at a time when you want to
Speaker 16: just arrest the client and and and uh outward flow
Speaker 16: of population, UH, you find yourself being uh stuck with
Speaker 16: that that that sort of that sort of the client
Speaker 16: that's you know, that's what's so distressing about people who
Speaker 16: want to put on blinders and and not tell people
Speaker 16: the challenge that we face when we see this sort
Speaker 16: of the vision and destructive, destructive attitudes in play, you know,
Speaker 16: bring inspire, hope, create opportunity, bring people together, and understand
Speaker 16: the first responsibility of local government is to make sure
Speaker 16: that the people are safe.
Speaker 3: Amen, Ken Blackwell, you know, and I've been struggling to
Speaker 3: understand why it is the city leaders. And this is
Speaker 3: something that Christopher smithm brings up regularly when he comes
Speaker 3: up my program, which is the deafening silence from the
Speaker 3: council members as well as the mayor about supporting out
Speaker 3: loud and advocating working with the police, not against them.
Speaker 3: That flies in the face of the whole police are terrible,
Speaker 3: defund the police movement. So that's a very far left attitude.
Speaker 3: But they don't say anything. And I think one of
Speaker 3: the reasons is because they're trying to downplay the reality
Speaker 3: of crime in downtown Cincinnati for the reasons you point out.
Speaker 3: If you talk about crime, then people are going to
Speaker 3: get the perception of there's crime, and people are not
Speaker 3: going to want to move into or otherwise invest in
Speaker 3: the city of Cincinnati. But that just ignores the fact
Speaker 3: that the crime is there.
Speaker 8: So stands yeah, and and and you make you try
Speaker 8: to spin.
Speaker 16: When when people can see the sort of division and
Speaker 16: sort of mob action that we experienced this past weekend. Yeah,
Speaker 16: that that just creates a frustration of people who have
Speaker 16: a capability.
Speaker 3: A movie, yes, sir, movie, movie or not considering. I
Speaker 3: mean we've made national Actually, we had global headlines with this.
Speaker 3: I mean I saw there's an article on there's violence
Speaker 3: and the Hindu Times of all places, so Fox News headlines,
Speaker 3: it's on CNN. Everybody's talking about it. You know, Dan Well,
Speaker 3: Ken Blackwell that there's maybe a business or some person
Speaker 3: out there that might have been considering Cincinnati as an
Speaker 3: option for investment or to move and they looked at
Speaker 3: that and it's like, no, I'm taking them off my list.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 16: And right, I'm seventy seven years old. I've lived in
Speaker 16: Cincinnati all my life. I've just I've been a homeowner,
Speaker 16: a political leader, you know, you name it. But I
Speaker 16: realize that people vote with their feet. We are highly mobile,
Speaker 16: and what happens is that your city becomes poor and poor,
Speaker 16: smaller and smaller, you know, And that's the challenge of
Speaker 16: local leadership. And they cannot forget the capital seeks the
Speaker 16: path of least resistance and greatest opportunity and capital. Who
Speaker 16: hates crime?
Speaker 3: Well, it's pause. Bring Ken Ken Blackwell back got some

Speaker 3: with the incomparable Ken Blackwell commenting on some of the issues.
Speaker 3: Of course, whenever the violence downtown you mentioned capital seeking
Speaker 3: the path of least resistance. Ken, I couldn't agree with
Speaker 3: you more on that, and someone who knows all about that,
Speaker 3: A wildly successful entrepreneur and the next governor of the
Speaker 3: state of Ohio. I understand you were as much of
Speaker 3: a fan, perhaps as I am, of V. V. Ramaswami,
Speaker 3: according to polling and everything else I can see. I've
Speaker 3: talked to him many times. I've been impressed with him
Speaker 3: since I interviewed him after he wrote Woke Incorporated. A
Speaker 3: brilliant man he is. I think he's going to make
Speaker 3: an outstanding governor. He seems to have great ideas your
Speaker 3: comments on VV.
Speaker 16: Let me tell you, I've watched since he was a
Speaker 16: high schooler at Saint Xavier only at it that we
Speaker 16: couldn't get him over to a university.
Speaker 8: Uh.
Speaker 16: Yeah, Uh, he will make a great governor. And his
Speaker 16: his his not only his worldview, but his understanding of
Speaker 16: the basics is is phenomenal. You know, he and I
Speaker 16: have talked on occasion in the past. Uh, a basic
Speaker 16: understanding about the economic situation uh in Ohio.
Speaker 8: He he understands us.
Speaker 16: I've preached for a long time that if you tax something,
Speaker 16: you get less of it. If you, you know, subsidize something.
Speaker 8: You get more of it.
Speaker 16: The problem in America and and and the challenge in
Speaker 16: Ohio today is that we're taxing work savings investment. Uh
Speaker 16: and and as a consequence, Uh, he understands the challenge.
Speaker 16: And I think he has a set of proposals that
Speaker 16: we will unleash uh the talent in Ohio get us
Speaker 16: back on a on a path for rapid growth. And
Speaker 16: I've been up on his response, uh and his comments
Speaker 16: on this sort of division and the sort of the
Speaker 16: crime that he saw on the streets of Cincinnati and uh.
Speaker 16: I think he's he's well positioned as a fundamental understanding
Speaker 16: of how to put us on a accelerate track of
Speaker 16: economic growth, prosperity, safety, uh and and and he has
Speaker 16: a vision to to to make Ohio not just one
Speaker 16: of the best states in the United States, but the
Speaker 16: premier state. Uh and And I tell our buddy down
Speaker 16: in Florida, my job, you know that's coming.
Speaker 5: That's great.
Speaker 3: One of the things I'm really excited about as a
Speaker 3: magnet for business and industry from the four corners of
Speaker 3: the world. We can make Ohio the lead power generator
Speaker 3: by greasing the skids and moving forward with the concept
Speaker 3: that I've been pushing for now for years, embracing the
Speaker 3: small modular nuclear reactors. They're small, tiny footprint, don't generate
Speaker 3: the ways they can power make create massive amounts of power.
Speaker 3: If you build it, they will come. And he is
Speaker 3: all about that.
Speaker 8: Oh, he he really is.
Speaker 16: And one of the things I just I shad again.
Speaker 16: He has to he has to inspire hope uh and
Speaker 16: and and and he's and he's good that, you know.
Speaker 16: He he has to make people feel that no one
Speaker 16: is too small of an entity.
Speaker 8: To be part, not to be part of of of
Speaker 8: this ohiw uh boom. Yeah, and and and so I.
Speaker 16: Tell people you know who who might think, you know,
Speaker 16: that they're too small or uh they can't have impact
Speaker 16: because they are individual. I tell them all the time, Brian,
Speaker 16: you know, if you think you're too small to be effective,
Speaker 16: you've never been in the dark and dark room with
Speaker 16: a mosquito.
Speaker 4: That's good.
Speaker 16: Yeah, that that sort of inspiration I think is important.
Speaker 16: But again, it starts with having a vision of Ohio
Speaker 16: being not one of the best, but the best.
Speaker 3: The best, and that's what he is aspiring to bring
Speaker 3: about for the state of Ohio. And you know, you
Speaker 3: can't say enough about that man, at least as far
Speaker 3: as you can't. You can't hear VVA speak and not
Speaker 3: be enthused. He is one of those people that makes
Speaker 3: you feel uplifted, like you do have a possible future,
Speaker 3: like there is going to be something better down the road,
Speaker 3: and I think he's the man to deliver on it.
Speaker 3: I'm just going to encourage my listeners to follow you
Speaker 3: on Facebook, Ken Blackwell. You make some outstad comments, You
Speaker 3: do some terrific posts, stay on top of the issues,
Speaker 3: and I wish I could talk with you for the
Speaker 3: next three hours. But sadly, sadly are out of time.

Speaker 3: thirty years of service to our community. Proud of that
Speaker 3: he is and he continues to advocate. He is the
Speaker 3: founder of a called Curse Breakers, three hundred strong and
Speaker 3: Death Row Ministries. Police Peace Officer Deactivation Specialist Andreying Man,
Speaker 3: I am so pleased you came in to talk to
Speaker 3: us this morning. It's a pleasure to have you in
Speaker 3: the studio.
Speaker 19: Thank you, brother Brian. I appreciate it. I'm so glad
Speaker 19: to be here. And I'm on fire. You are on fire, yes, sir.
Speaker 3: And that's what was so cool about what you were saying,
Speaker 3: speaking truth to power, passionate and your reaction to the
Speaker 3: violence in the city of Cincinnati, which it sounds, I mean,
Speaker 3: it's almost as if you knew it was coming because
Speaker 3: you posted a video on the twenty fourth criticizing the administration.
Speaker 3: You were at Police Chief threes of Thigi and you
Speaker 3: know all about it because you're a police officer for
Speaker 3: that period of time. Share along you went after the
Speaker 3: mayor elected officials demanding a change in administration because clearly
Speaker 3: we're on the wrong path. And then one day later,
Speaker 3: look what happens in downtown Cincinnati. So you had a
Speaker 3: nice follow up to that one. So let my listeners
Speaker 3: know where you are on all this andre.
Speaker 19: Absolutely is discussed disgusting. Just listening to Chief Thiji's interview yesterday,
Speaker 19: it was absolutely ridiculous. We are a nationwide joke right
Speaker 19: now in Cincinnati, the issues of talking about you only
Speaker 19: had two officers respond that was dispatched, that was in
Speaker 19: the central business section. And she even said, over one
Speaker 19: hundred thousand people and you're dispatching cars to a scene
Speaker 19: where there's so many people and vehicles. But here here
Speaker 19: we have around the country where people are getting ran over.
Speaker 19: Why wasn't those streets just completely blocked off that there
Speaker 19: were no vehicle traffic number one so the officers can
Speaker 19: get there, and there was no officers on foot in
Speaker 19: the area. Absolutely unacceptable.
Speaker 3: It took us six minutes to get there, which you know,
Speaker 3: in terms of response time, I don't know if that's
Speaker 3: good or bad, but you're talking about a downtown CINCINNY
Speaker 3: that's got three major events going on, and people don't
Speaker 3: just pack up and go home at eleven pm when
Speaker 3: the rock when the music stops, they head over the
Speaker 3: door district and go into the bars. And so they're
Speaker 3: going to be into the bars until the bars are
Speaker 3: going to close. So you have obviously a lot of
Speaker 3: people that are going to be pouring into that neighborhood.
Speaker 3: You would expect it to be police all over, and
Speaker 3: that's what you were advocating for on your on your
Speaker 3: Facebook posts. How come there were police on the on
Speaker 3: the corners of the street in an area where you knew,
Speaker 3: damn well, there's going to be a whole bunch of people.
Speaker 19: My point exactly, why didn't you have police on every corner,
Speaker 19: saturated to tell people welcome to Cincinnati, wave at people.
Speaker 19: But no, why because administration did not allocate the proper
Speaker 19: units downtown to deactivate things.
Speaker 3: Like this or just to prevent them from happening by
Speaker 3: their mere presence. Absolutely, yeah, and that you know the
Speaker 3: police presence is so critical. Now, respond to this, and
Speaker 3: I'm not really playing devil's advocate because I'm in full
Speaker 3: agreement with your perception at what should have gone down.
Speaker 3: But her response, Police Chief Fiji's response might be, well,
Speaker 3: we're understaffed. They only had three officers at that moment
Speaker 3: in time, at three o'clock in the morning that were
Speaker 3: even available to respond. That's a pretty sizable area. And
Speaker 3: of course with all those people there, clearly three officers
Speaker 3: ain't gonna cut it exactly.
Speaker 19: So if you know you're gonna be understaffed prior to
Speaker 19: then wouldn't you make the proper adjustments beforehand? We knew
Speaker 19: a year out this event is coming to town, and
Speaker 19: you see the things that are curring. But yet you
Speaker 19: did not plan effectively and had no type of strategy.
Speaker 19: So that should tell you once again leadership matters, and
Speaker 19: in this case, leadership failed.
Speaker 5: And what do you have?
Speaker 19: Total chaos in the city of Cincinnati. I told them
Speaker 19: before you must want got them city, And I've always
Speaker 19: said on my post, who's next?
Speaker 13: Who's next?
Speaker 8: There?
Speaker 3: But for the grace of God, go anybody that goes downtown.
Speaker 3: And I know you had some really pointed comments and
Speaker 3: warnings to my white friends out in the listening audience
Speaker 3: about what they should prepare for and maybe shouldn't even
Speaker 3: bother going downtown, because I think that's your choice as well.
Speaker 5: He said.
Speaker 3: Major events like that, You're not going to get anywhere
Speaker 3: near them.
Speaker 19: Absolutely not, absolutely not. We see what's going on even
Speaker 19: locally and abroad nationwide, and if the police are not
Speaker 19: setting things up for us to feel safe and secure,
Speaker 19: and I walk into a situation and I see angry people,
Speaker 19: I see situations happening, and I just want to come
Speaker 19: out of an establishment and just walk down the street,
Speaker 19: and I may have an altercation and the next thing
Speaker 19: you know, me and my friends may get completely beat down.
Speaker 19: And the narrative of being twisted, which is very interesting
Speaker 19: that I've seen. If this was an entire all white
Speaker 19: mob on a black person, it would be considered a hate.
Speaker 3: Crime from the get go, from the get go.
Speaker 19: But even Chief Thiji set there and said, this fight,
Speaker 19: this fight, We do know who it is. Turn yourself in, no,
Speaker 19: put these individuals on blast, name them by name, Let
Speaker 19: the people in the community know this behavior is unacceptable.
Speaker 19: So if it was actually disgusting to her, why are
Speaker 19: you requesting they turn themselves in versus putting their picture
Speaker 19: on TV and saying this is who it is and
Speaker 19: we're coming to get you.
Speaker 3: We'll bring back Andre Outstanding seven thirty six right now,
Speaker 3: If you've got cares to these auxiations. Stick around.
Speaker 6: This is fifty five KARC and iHeartRadio station.
Speaker 3: We all remember, hey, real quick weather the heat devisor
Speaker 3: of tomorrow evening at eight pm. So it's gonna be
Speaker 3: hot in human today ninety one. Overnight low is seventy three,
Speaker 3: very hot in human tomorrow ninety two. I'm keeping out
Speaker 3: the heat indect. Y'all know it's going to be really
Speaker 3: hot overnight sixty eight with a slight chance a rain
Speaker 3: and on a Thursday mostly cloudy but only eighty two
Speaker 3: fraud Right now at seventy five, let's hear about traffic.
Speaker 1: Chuck from the UCL Traffic Center.
Speaker 12: You see Healthwaight Loss Center offers sergical ahead, Medico, a
Speaker 12: BCD care and expertise called five one three nine three
Speaker 12: nine two two sixty three. It's nine three nine twenty
Speaker 12: two sixty three North Fen seventy five. You can add
Speaker 12: an extra five between Arnoldson and downtown North Fen seventy one.
Speaker 12: Cruiser working with an accident on the left hand side
Speaker 12: US above two seventy five.
Speaker 1: Chuck ingramon fifty five krs. The talk station.
Speaker 3: Seven thirty nine coming up with seven forty fifty five
Speaker 3: KRCD talk station Brian Thomas with the outstanding, outspoken Andrea Ewing.
Speaker 3: Follow him on Facebook, check out his videos. He pulls
Speaker 3: literally no punches at all.
Speaker 1: Andre.
Speaker 3: You know, I apologize I didn't get a chance to
Speaker 3: see your most recent post, but caption all in caps.
Speaker 3: This makes me. City leaders calling in the Lincoln Ware
Speaker 3: shows saying the white man got the action he deserved. Now,
Speaker 3: I had heard that that some people said that this
Speaker 3: was totally justifiable. And I don't know what led to
Speaker 3: the ultimate melee and beat down of these people, but
Speaker 3: I can't come up with a single action that could
Speaker 3: justify that mob behavior. How could anybody suggest that that
Speaker 3: man or the woman who got punched square in the
Speaker 3: face deserved what they got.
Speaker 19: Exactly, There is no justification, period, zero justification. And when
Speaker 19: you look at that and the comments that were called
Speaker 19: in into the lincoln Ware Show, and you can read
Speaker 19: the comments and people saying, yeah, that's what he get.
Speaker 19: You bring the action, you get the action. And we
Speaker 19: had literally leaders like David Whitehead, the leader of the NAACP,
Speaker 19: call in and it seemed as if he was being
Speaker 19: motivated by the comments that were constantly going against Smitherman,
Speaker 19: Colin Smith in a coon a sellout, and I'm sitting
Speaker 19: there watching and I'm listening and I'm reading. I said,
Speaker 19: this is disgusting that we have blacks that are saying
Speaker 19: this is what you get. So that's why I also stated,
Speaker 19: no wonder our young people are following suit, because if
Speaker 19: our own leaders are saying this is how you handle business,
Speaker 19: then don't say absolutely nothing to our children.
Speaker 3: You know, that's a really, really good point. And Christopher's
Speaker 3: been on that theme for a long time. It's where
Speaker 3: are our city leaders advocating to support the police, to
Speaker 3: support nonviolence, to you know, engage in a positive relationship
Speaker 3: with the police for the betterment of the communities. And
Speaker 3: I've heard time and time again the vast majority of blacks,
Speaker 3: if you talk to them individually, they want safe streets.
Speaker 3: They don't have a problem with the police. In fact,
Speaker 3: as illustrated by over the weekend, there aren't enough around.
Speaker 14: We need more.
Speaker 3: But the loud voice gets the attention, the squeaky wheel
Speaker 3: gets the grease, and sadly, you know, the squeaky wheels.
Speaker 3: Perhaps the president, current president of the NAACP's part of
Speaker 3: the problem. I don't know, but they're the ones that
Speaker 3: people tend to listen to. And that sounds like what
Speaker 3: representatives of the black community are advocating for. And yeah,
Speaker 3: that's going to rub off on children.
Speaker 19: Absolutely, absolutely think about this. Cheryl Long literally removed District five,
Speaker 19: took it completely out of a community.
Speaker 1: But yet the.
Speaker 19: Mayor and the chief stand by and say safety is
Speaker 19: our number one priority. And we see that Sarah Herringer,
Speaker 19: she blew the rooftop off of a lot of issues
Speaker 19: that the city was portraying and tested her own numbers
Speaker 19: against theirs. And so if it's your top priority, and
Speaker 19: now all of a sudden, you're saying, oh, we need
Speaker 19: more police, but you took a police district out of
Speaker 19: a community. Make it make sense, brother, Brian, please, I can't.
Speaker 13: Yeah.
Speaker 3: The only thing I can come up with, Andie is
Speaker 3: they are so afraid of acknowledging that there's a crime
Speaker 3: problem because it's bad press. It's gonna maybe make people considered.
Speaker 3: I don't want to move to Cincinnati. But you, I mean,
Speaker 3: you can't deny your I mean it's like, don't believe
Speaker 3: you're lying eyes. People who live in the city know
Speaker 3: there's a problem. I mean, the police know their problem
Speaker 3: and the ignoring the problem, and I think it's really
Speaker 3: probably driven by just the fact that we just don't
Speaker 3: want to acknowledge it, to talk about it because it
Speaker 3: just looks bad. Well, welcome to front page news across
Speaker 3: the United States of America with what happened on Saturday morning.
Speaker 19: Absolutely one thousand percent. And police officers are frustrated. Oh yeah,
Speaker 19: they are extremely frustrated because I know for a fact
Speaker 19: that they do go out here and do their job
Speaker 19: and deal with a lot of issues and a deactivate
Speaker 19: as much as they can. They really do. But I've
Speaker 19: been an advocate to always say I'm not here to
Speaker 19: take sides. I'm here to save lives, and if my
Speaker 19: fellow officers are doing something they shouldn't be doing, I've
Speaker 19: always wanted to be an advocate to say, look, this
Speaker 19: is what's right, and this is what's wrong. But when
Speaker 19: I see it wrong and I see a community constantly
Speaker 19: going against his self, murders on the ride, black on
Speaker 19: black crimes, and these same civil leaders have nothing to say,
Speaker 19: absolutely nothing. That's disgusting because we both know that the
Speaker 19: multiple murders that occur are with on our black youth
Speaker 19: and the murders in Cincinnati and no one is taking accountability.
Speaker 3: We'll bring back Andre for one more segment. Andre Ewing
Speaker 3: before we get to the bright part. Insights scoop up
Speaker 3: to the top of our news again. Check him out

Speaker 3: coming in. We're gonna go up to just eighty two
Speaker 3: on Thursday. Right now, seventy five, let's hear about traffick
Speaker 3: chuck from the.
Speaker 1: UCL Traffic Center.
Speaker 12: U See Health Weight Loss Center offers surgical and medical
Speaker 12: of BCB care and expertise called five one three nine
Speaker 12: three nine two two sixty three. It's nine three nine
Speaker 12: twenty two sixty three North Pen seventy five. You can
Speaker 12: add an extra five between Donaldson and downtown North Pen
Speaker 12: seventy one. Cruise will working with an accident on the
Speaker 12: left hand side just above two seventy five. Chuck ingramon
Speaker 12: fifty five kr Sea Deep Talk Station.
Speaker 3: Seven forty seven. Here fifty five Parasevcalk Station, Bryan Towns
Speaker 3: with Andre Ewing, retired police officer. Sure, and you're you're
Speaker 3: like a community activist. You speak to the youth groups
Speaker 3: and and and you know, I guess I'm just kind
Speaker 3: of curious what you're doing in your your your in
Speaker 3: the time you're not here in my studio talking to
Speaker 3: my listeners.
Speaker 5: Right.
Speaker 19: Just did something with the Urban League. It was powerful.
Speaker 19: Oh yeah, the Urban Champions, and just had a great
Speaker 19: encounter with some young youth and trying to promote and
Speaker 19: show them there's a different way to go about situations.
Speaker 19: And it's interesting everything that we told them to do.
Speaker 19: What they saw downtown was exactly the example. We said,
Speaker 19: this is what happens if you run to a fight,
Speaker 19: If you go to a fight, if you present yourself
Speaker 19: and had speakers there telling them to turn the other
Speaker 19: way and to make sure that everyone is safe, everyone,
Speaker 19: not just some.
Speaker 3: Well, I appreciate your speaking to the young people. They
Speaker 3: certainly need a clear and convincing voice like yours. But
Speaker 3: speaking of change, and I said to you off air,
Speaker 3: I said, you know what, Andre, You and I both
Speaker 3: know it. Come November, the residents of the city of
Speaker 3: Cincinnati have an opportunity to vote. And you know, the
Speaker 3: definition of stupidity is doing the same thing over and
Speaker 3: over again and expecting a different result. But they're still
Speaker 3: going to vote for the same clowns in office. And
Speaker 3: you had advocated for a change in administration on your
Speaker 3: one of your recent videos. What's your take on the
Speaker 3: upcoming election in November? And do you think this is
Speaker 3: an opportunity for change in the city of Cincinnati.
Speaker 19: It's a perfect opportunity for change. It's interesting because if
Speaker 19: this was a professional team and they went oh for twelve,
Speaker 19: what do you do we want to go oh and
Speaker 19: twelve again? We talk about the Bengals. If they would
Speaker 19: have had the proper defense in place, guess what might
Speaker 19: be talking about Super Bowl champs with the offense that
Speaker 19: they had. But guess what they decided to get more
Speaker 19: power impactful people on defense. So let's deal with the
Speaker 19: truth of the matter. We are in a position to
Speaker 19: make change. I would love to see the debate. Let
Speaker 19: them go at it one on one, debate this thing
Speaker 19: go right at the situation, and let's see who exactly
Speaker 19: would be best for the position of mayor. Because at
Speaker 19: this point, what we have seen and if you want
Speaker 19: this to continue at this state, we are going to
Speaker 19: be in a world of mess. And this is exactly
Speaker 19: what we see and it should start from the top down.
Speaker 19: And I've said it before, Teresa Thiji needs to go Yeah,
Speaker 19: just go out. There's so many powerful candidates out there,
Speaker 19: so many powerful candidates out there. She needs to resign,
Speaker 19: leave at this moment and allow us to go out
Speaker 19: and see if there are other individuals more qualified, more
Speaker 19: experienced and understand city dynamics and are willing to work
Speaker 19: with thee.
Speaker 3: Well this police chief, Thesi, and I don't presume it,
Speaker 3: but I presume that you do regularly speak with members
Speaker 3: of law enforcement who are still actively with the police department.
Speaker 3: I mean you got friends, right, you hear you talk
Speaker 3: to them? How's it is there a sense that they
Speaker 3: have any respect for leadership within the department.
Speaker 19: Zero leadership and that's a shame. And I had this
Speaker 19: on one of my posts is where Sheryl Long was
Speaker 19: going into uh several police districts with actually Scottie Johnson
Speaker 19: and asked the police officers, who would you like to
Speaker 19: see a chief? And at the time, the majority had
Speaker 19: set back and said, well, Lisa Davis. Colonel Lisa Davis
Speaker 19: said we would. We think she would be a great advocate.
Speaker 19: She's a community person, she understands. And guess what, she
Speaker 19: still picked Teresa Thiji. Now that's interesting because people did
Speaker 19: not officers did not want her in the morale and
Speaker 19: what you see and people being motivated started from the
Speaker 19: top down and what Chryl Long decided to do without
Speaker 19: listening to officers and the proper way to select the
Speaker 19: chief of our city. And from these results, you are
Speaker 19: seeing us getting blasted by individuals on podcasts across the
Speaker 19: country talking about our city and how terrible it.
Speaker 3: Is, so low morale. And then I'm sure we of
Speaker 3: course know about the low morale within the police department
Speaker 3: because of the criminal justice system generally speaking, why bother
Speaker 3: arresting the kid for breaking curfew when there is going
Speaker 3: to be nothing at all, zero done to.
Speaker 19: Them, Absolutely zero, nothing will happen. Usually, if we even
Speaker 19: take someone to twenty twenty at juvenile, we're calling their
Speaker 19: parents on the way, make sure you come get your child.
Speaker 19: As soon as they come in, they're walking straight out.
Speaker 19: And these kids understand the system that they can take
Speaker 19: it to the whole next level and then say, well,
Speaker 19: when I turn eighteen, I'll just get my record expongs.
Speaker 19: Absolutely ridiculous. Gun laws need to be increased, that we're
Speaker 19: not playing if you get caught with a gun, we're
Speaker 19: not playing games with you. We're gonna hold you accountable.
Speaker 19: You will do some time, You will do some time.
Speaker 19: So these judges need to step it up and stop
Speaker 19: playing games.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's always very puzzling to me, because you know,
Speaker 3: if after Purvol had his way, he would take away
Speaker 3: everyone's guns. And that's not your position, because you had
Speaker 3: advocated on one of your posts that we should be armed.
Speaker 3: You know, you go to the rains train, learn how
Speaker 3: to properly use it. You know, you know, if you
Speaker 3: as long as you're lawfully able to carry a firearm,
Speaker 3: you probably should because that way you can defend yourself.
Speaker 19: And that's just the society we live in today. But
Speaker 19: now what is the perception of defending yourself. That's why
Speaker 19: I said, when you were downtown in this circumstance, and
Speaker 19: if somebody had a firearm and started to just let off,
Speaker 19: we would have at least twenty to twenty five people
Speaker 19: dead and more critically injured based on this situation while
Speaker 19: people were armed, and I bet you there were people
Speaker 19: that were armed that maybe just didn't pull their weapon
Speaker 19: at the time. But during that beat down, would someone
Speaker 19: had been justified to pull in and try to save
Speaker 19: the gentleman who was getting mobbed against, who was getting
Speaker 19: attacked and kicked brutally and savagely. He could be a
Speaker 19: damage for life, brain damage he was in. The woman
Speaker 19: savagely was struck. So if somebody would have put out
Speaker 19: a gun and started firing, would they have been wrong?
Speaker 3: No, they wouldn't you know what I'm thinking of? The
Speaker 3: guy who saved maybe multiple lives a that Walmart up
Speaker 3: was Milwaukee. The guy who was stabbing, he stabbed a
Speaker 3: loving people and long comes a marine with a fire
Speaker 3: that didn't put the guy down, but stopped the violence
Speaker 3: from happening. If you have reasonable and eminent apprehension of
Speaker 3: grievous bodily harm that guy was suffering from grievous bodily
Speaker 3: harm at the time, or you have a legitimate, reasonable
Speaker 3: fear for your own life, you're allowed to use deadly force.
Speaker 3: So and I talked with the FOP president just the
Speaker 3: other day about that. He agreed with me completely. Absolutely
Speaker 3: use of a firearm order those circumstances would have been justified.
Speaker 19: Absolutely.
Speaker 3: When people are freaked out, they think some left wing
Speaker 3: prosecutor is going to go after them for defending their
Speaker 3: lives or defending the lives of others. So there creates
Speaker 3: that reluctance in society because they think they're going to
Speaker 3: be the ones prosecuted, not the person given the beatdown.
Speaker 19: Now, this is interesting. I want to ask you some brother, Brian.
Speaker 19: When there's a UFC cage fight, they have a ref
Speaker 19: right there in the middle. Once this ref sees it's
Speaker 19: out of control and that person may even remotely lose consciously,
Speaker 19: they step in.
Speaker 8: That's it.
Speaker 19: It's over. You don't continue to go because why they
Speaker 19: understand the issues that continue to happen. Well, guess what,
Speaker 19: there was no referee down here, and we continue to
Speaker 19: see beat down, another's hiding a face, another kicking a face,
Speaker 19: another jab in a faith. It was consistent with beyond
Speaker 19: almost aggravated assault, and they should be prosecuted to the
Speaker 19: highest level.
Speaker 3: Andre Ewing, you know what, someday I want to be
Speaker 3: interviewing you as candidate for office. You run for council
Speaker 3: or maybe run for mayor or something like that. I
Speaker 3: think you get a lot of votes.
Speaker 19: Man, Yes sir, Yes, sir.
Speaker 3: What you consider that you got to gleam in your eye.
Speaker 3: Maybe you have been considering it. It's not too late, yes, sir,
Speaker 3: it's not too late. Yes, sir, you always have an
Speaker 3: opportunity here on the fifty five Caro Scening Morning Show.
Speaker 3: I love your message, I love your passion. I know
Speaker 3: you care about the city, you care about our youth,
Speaker 3: and you know there's a better direction, the better path.
Speaker 3: Maybe we'll all wake up in the city and find
Speaker 3: that path in November.
Speaker 19: Yes, sir, thank you so much.
Speaker 3: It's been fun.
Speaker 19: It's been awesome.
Speaker 3: You come back again.
Speaker 19: Probably all about the truth.

Speaker 3: Station really enjoyed the lineup of guests this morning.
Speaker 1: Continuing the lineup of.
Speaker 3: Guests that I'm enjoying this morning, the return of tech
Speaker 3: editor Colin Maidine, tech editor for Bright Bart. You can
Speaker 3: find them online. As I always start out the segment
Speaker 3: B R E I T B A R T Breitbart
Speaker 3: dot Com. It's time for the inside scoop. Welcome back,
Speaker 3: Colin Madine. It's always a pleasure talker with you, my friend.
Speaker 5: Happy to be here.
Speaker 3: Well, you know, we're in trouble here in the city
Speaker 3: of Cincinnati, and when we make national headlines for what
Speaker 3: happened over the weekend, including the brawl, be the beatdown,
Speaker 3: I should more properly refer to it. It's covered on
Speaker 3: Breitbart as well. I mean, I'm not sure if you
Speaker 3: know a whole lot about Colin, but I did see
Speaker 3: that Breitbart covered the situation as well. What's your take
Speaker 3: on our problem here in the city of Cincinnati.
Speaker 10: Well, I'm absolutely aware of it. You know, first of all,
Speaker 10: I'm a Columbus native, and so I'd be in Cincinnati
Speaker 10: anytime I wanted to see decent sports teams as opposed
Speaker 10: to Cleveland.
Speaker 8: Right, It's great, So.
Speaker 10: You know, I did watch it carefully. My first reaction
Speaker 10: is something you've already touched on. A lot of the
Speaker 10: media is covering this as a brawl or a fight.
Speaker 10: All I saw was a beatdown, you know, people getting
Speaker 10: a mudhole stumped in them. Basically, what I really keyed
Speaker 10: in on as tech editor is your police chief went
Speaker 10: out there blaming social media and the media or this,
Speaker 10: you know, spreading virally and this being the national news
Speaker 10: about Cincinnati as opposed to something good, right, which we
Speaker 10: would all hope for, but usually isn't the case. My
Speaker 10: view is when you look at incidents that go viral,
Speaker 10: it can go two ways. There are incidents that are
Speaker 10: caused by social media and made worse, and then there's influence.
Speaker 10: There's incidents that happen and then go viral because they
Speaker 10: have all the right ingredients to go viral. So I
Speaker 10: don't view this as something caused by social media. When
Speaker 10: I think of things caused by social media, I'm thinking
Speaker 10: of TikTok making teenagers do stupid things, whether it's eating
Speaker 10: tide pods or destroying their schools, yep, to get viral.
Speaker 5: That's not what happened here.
Speaker 10: What happened here is this terrible incident, probably alcohol fuels,
Speaker 10: and it much like the Coldplay concerts CEO that wasn't
Speaker 10: caused by social media, but it had all the ingredients
Speaker 10: to then go viral. You know, there's a lot of
Speaker 10: people and the reason they go to social.
Speaker 5: Media is to see knockouts. And despite whatever you want to.
Speaker 10: Call it, brawl, attack, beat down, you know had these
Speaker 10: brutal knockdowns, right, and yes, you have a crowd at
Speaker 10: last I saw the crowd.
Speaker 5: Is estimated at one hundred people that was standing around
Speaker 5: filming it.
Speaker 10: Many of those people hope to have the video that
Speaker 10: goes viral because they think they're famous. They want that
Speaker 10: attention for one minute or ten minutes or fifteen minutes
Speaker 10: of fame like Americans used to hope for. Yeah, but
Speaker 10: you know, I disagree with your police chief out there
Speaker 10: saying it's the fault of social media and it's the
Speaker 10: fault of the media for covering it. You have a
Speaker 10: much deeper problem that's being portrayed in that video.
Speaker 3: Without question, I think, you know, it becomes a social
Speaker 3: media phenomenon, most notably these these these knockdowns. He's you know,
Speaker 3: random indiscriminate punching of people that really even when there's
Speaker 3: no altercation. We even had one of those that same
Speaker 3: roughly the same period of time on Saturday morning. It's
Speaker 3: you can hear the guy that's recording the video, it's
Speaker 3: sort of just waiting for this knockdown to happen. It
Speaker 3: was a setup. He was ready to record it. When
Speaker 3: it happened, and out of nowhere, this guy just Cole Cox,
Speaker 3: this innocent person who is just standing there and he
Speaker 3: gets knocked to the ground and then the guy drags
Speaker 3: him out in the middle of the street. People can't
Speaker 3: believe their own eyes and they see that, and that's
Speaker 3: why it becomes clickbait. It's like, oh my god, this
Speaker 3: is like societal breakdown kind of stuff. I can't believe
Speaker 3: what I'm watching, and then somebody else wants to do it,
Speaker 3: so they become the next viral sensation.
Speaker 10: Absolutely, and you know there's other people out there saying,
Speaker 10: you know, the race aspect is why this went viral,
Speaker 10: that's not the reality we live in. Either the fight
Speaker 10: and the attack is it really gets people, exactly to
Speaker 10: your point, to just click on things, because you know,
Speaker 10: we see these types of videos going viral all the time,
Speaker 10: and it can be you know, it can be all
Speaker 10: it can be black on black. We see that with
Speaker 10: Carnival Cruises, who had to basically go through a marketing
Speaker 10: crisis because all these videos of fights on cruise ships
Speaker 10: certainly certainly large groups of white people do the same thing.
Speaker 10: It's not, you know, from my perspective, it's that's not why.
Speaker 4: I win viral?
Speaker 8: Whyo win viral?
Speaker 10: Was you had this large group of people. I think
Speaker 10: there was one nine to one one call according to
Speaker 10: what exactly? Because you get that it's essentially a mini riot,
Speaker 10: one might say, right, it's the behavior that humans is
Speaker 10: not I'm going to try to stop this because there'll
Speaker 10: be the next person beat down. Instead, it's I'm going
Speaker 10: to try to get famous off this, because whether you're
Speaker 10: a social media expert or not, every one has some
Speaker 10: concept of what's going to go viral these days.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're right, and you know it's it's something that
Speaker 3: I just can't get my head around, Colin, because Okay,
Speaker 3: I'm going to be sixty in September. Maybe it's my age,
Speaker 3: but my first reaction is never to grab my phone
Speaker 3: and start taking pictures of something. I mean, even at
Speaker 3: family events, birthday parties. I just don't think about it,
Speaker 3: and so I wouldn't have. I don't think I would
Speaker 3: have pulled my phone out if I was downtown when
Speaker 3: that was going on to record it. It just doesn't
Speaker 3: enter my mind. But that's not modern society, and that's
Speaker 3: certainly not the default position for seemingly most people these days.
Speaker 5: Well, Brian, in your defense, it's not just an age thing.
Speaker 10: Yes, Certainly older people, you know, as you get into
Speaker 10: the boomer generation, they don't have that instinct. I'm a
Speaker 10: tech editor gen X in my forties and I struggle
Speaker 10: with that too. We have a fox who runs around
Speaker 10: our neighborhood all day. I saw them and I had
Speaker 10: to like comically funk with my phone right for the
Speaker 10: right camera. But there's you know, millions upon millions.
Speaker 5: Of people who are like quick draw artists, right, like.
Speaker 10: Gunslingers with their phone and they're filming Hollywood style angles
Speaker 10: and lighting on the fly because that and some of
Speaker 10: that is because you know, we have whole generations that
Speaker 10: are digital natives, people who were born.
Speaker 5: With social media essentially.
Speaker 10: Yeah, or in the you know, in YouTube, and part
Speaker 10: of it is, you know, it's that struggle of we
Speaker 10: have people who just they're not thinking the way we
Speaker 10: would associate with traditional American thinking and values, which is
Speaker 10: if they see something like that and that's not fisticuffs, right,
Speaker 10: you have people getting knocked out, possibly brain damage. I
Speaker 10: don't know the condition of those poor people this morning,
Speaker 10: but you know that's not a fight, that's a that's
Speaker 10: a life threatening situation without question.
Speaker 3: Well, you mentioned thinking and critical thinking I think has
Speaker 3: been important aspect of my life and thank god I
Speaker 3: have critical thinking. It served me well in my practice
Speaker 3: of law. But that's the environment I was raised in,
Speaker 3: you know, the Socratic method. But pivoting over to artificial intelligence,
Speaker 3: I see the Teachers Union are teaming up with Microsoft
Speaker 3: and others thanks to a twenty three million dollar investment
Speaker 3: by Microsoft, Open AI and Anthropic to incorporate artificial intelligence
Speaker 3: into the classroom. And my concern about that is the
Speaker 3: default position for most is I'm not going to engage
Speaker 3: my own thought processes. I'm just going to turn to chat,
Speaker 3: GPT or some other AI inspired to get the answer
Speaker 3: to whatever question that's presented in front of me and
Speaker 3: just regurgitate something without thinking about it. This is a
Speaker 3: dangerous step, I believe, Colin. What's your take on this direction?
Speaker 10: It is a dangerous step because what you just said, Brian,
Speaker 10: once again, you're kind of ahead.
Speaker 5: Of the curve.
Speaker 10: It's not just conjecture, It's not just g These people
Speaker 10: aren't thinking. MIT has done an actual study and in
Speaker 10: the short version of their resulted chet GPT wrotes your brain.
Speaker 10: They do brain studies, and people's brains are not firing
Speaker 10: in the same way when they go to a tool
Speaker 10: and get an answer.
Speaker 5: So, you know, the thing that I.
Speaker 10: Find very curious about that deal where teachers and teachers
Speaker 10: unions want to incorporate the AI into the classroom is
Speaker 10: for you know, decades, you could talk to the most
Speaker 10: ardent leftist teacher and they would have a very similar
Speaker 10: opinion of Wikipedia that I do because Wikipedia is, you know,
Speaker 10: a horror show. It's filled with biased, insane, crazy opinions
Speaker 10: from the furthest left people. But teachers hated it because
Speaker 10: students would go to Wikipedia a copy and paste and
Speaker 10: turn it in as their research homework. They would say,
Speaker 10: you didn't do your work, you know, how dare you
Speaker 10: go to Wikipedia. Those same teachers today are saying, go
Speaker 10: to chech gpt and start, you know, and get some
Speaker 10: answers from them.
Speaker 5: It's the exact same problem.
Speaker 10: You're not learning anything as someone who works day in
Speaker 10: and day out with with writing. The startling thing is
Speaker 10: when people use chet GPT or any AI tool to
Speaker 10: generate some written words, they almost never read them. We
Speaker 10: know that because people will publish things or write letters
Speaker 10: and they have like horrible mistakes in them or it
Speaker 10: does this was written by chat GPT. They don't even
Speaker 10: bother to read it to remove that colin.
Speaker 3: Yeah, this is a topic that is so near and
Speaker 3: dear to my heart because there have been any number
Speaker 3: of articles written about idiot lawyers who rely on chat GPT,
Speaker 3: which whole cloth makes up case law that does not exist.
Speaker 3: They don't go bother and check their work to see
Speaker 3: if there actually is the case there they just recited
Speaker 3: and presented to the court. I mean, talk about malpractice
Speaker 3: that Yeah, I love.
Speaker 5: Covering that at Brighte Bartech. And you know you're a lawyer.
Speaker 5: I'm not a lawyer, but you know, no lawyer.
Speaker 10: Wants to make a judge really angry, right, I mean
Speaker 10: that's rule number one. Can you imagine how angry the
Speaker 10: judges when they realize and this is not one case
Speaker 10: that's happened many times Anthropics, which is an AI giant,
Speaker 10: their own lawyer fell for this where they, you know,
Speaker 10: filed things with a judge full of fake case citations.
Speaker 10: So it's brutal, and but that's that's what's happening. So
Speaker 10: you know, for all the parents and grandparents out there,
Speaker 10: you should punish your kids for using AI because literally
Speaker 10: they're not going to think, they're not going to learn,
Speaker 10: and they're going to publish wrong information.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you talk about and even if the information is accurate,
Speaker 3: the concept of creating a sentence on your own, it's
Speaker 3: going to be a lost art. It's going to be
Speaker 3: done for you, you know, the using verbs correctly, announced
Speaker 3: correctly and understanding how to construct this sentence is just
Speaker 3: that does it for you. I mean there's just no
Speaker 3: thought process involved, and I find that it's frightening. And
Speaker 3: then the other component of this is and a couple
Speaker 3: of corollary stories you have on Breitbart b R E
Speaker 3: I T b A r T dot com, book market,
Speaker 3: we got this guy in New York that used artificial
Speaker 3: intelligence to build bombs and he planned on detonating Manhattan.
Speaker 3: And another article you guys posted about chat GPT gave
Speaker 3: instructions on worshiping molac with blood sacrifices and encouraged somebody
Speaker 3: to cut their wrists with sterile or very clean razor blade.
Speaker 3: This stuff is downright dangerous.
Speaker 10: It's dangerous, Brian, and you know the problem is it
Speaker 10: leads people down rabbit holes. There's a term that's been
Speaker 10: coined called check GPT induced psychosis because people.
Speaker 5: Kind of go crazy.
Speaker 10: AI has this very dangerous trend of always telling you
Speaker 10: you're right, always telling you your a genius, and when
Speaker 10: you start to respond, you know, in an engaged manner
Speaker 10: on a particular topic, it just feeds you more and more.
Speaker 5: So to your point, you know, this guy wanted to
Speaker 5: build bombs.
Speaker 10: And AI tools taught him better bombs to build his quote,
Speaker 10: he told the cops, this is way easier than buying
Speaker 10: gunpowder to make bombs, because it told me just some
Speaker 10: household chemicals. Like he was thrilled because it helped them
Speaker 10: make this plan. Luckily, one accidentally went off and scared him,
Speaker 10: so he ended up turning himself in. But you know,
Speaker 10: whether it's worshiping the devil, which is the other case
Speaker 10: you talked about, or you know, we had an article
Speaker 10: a couple of weeks ago, just some guy. He's autistic,
Speaker 10: you know, so he has some challenges.
Speaker 5: He thought he has.
Speaker 10: Scientific breakthrough on time travel, chats APT contends him. He's correct,
Speaker 10: he's the next Einstein.
Speaker 13: You know.
Speaker 10: It sent him down this whole warm hole. And it's
Speaker 10: the mental health effects are almost as Dad is, like
Speaker 10: the false information that in lack of thinking.
Speaker 3: Everyone wants a pat on the back, and everyone wants
Speaker 3: to be encouraged and told that they're right. And when
Speaker 3: you can steer someone down a dangerous path because they
Speaker 3: happen to be on it already, it's just going to
Speaker 3: make a bad situation worse. Colin made I. It's always
Speaker 3: great having you want to continue to encourage my listeners
Speaker 3: to book Breitbart dot com and check out the wonderful
Speaker 3: reporting that you guys do. And you're always ahead of
Speaker 3: the game on what starts out to be an alleged
Speaker 3: conspiracy theory actually turns out to be right, and normally
Speaker 3: you can find out what's right in advance by reading Breitbart. Colin,
Speaker 3: look forward to having you back on real soon. Keep
Speaker 3: up the great work and say hello to the rest
Speaker 3: of the team for me.
Speaker 5: Appreciate it, Brian, keep going.
Speaker 3: Thanks brother, Take care. It's eight twenty. We got the
Speaker 3: Insights Scoop with Daniel Davis latest on Russia, Ukraine and
Speaker 3: of course Israel, Gaza and Iran. That'll be coming up next.
Speaker 3: I hope you can stick around fifty five KRC.
Speaker 25: Dot com when my business was taking up time for
Speaker 25: your Channel nine First Warning Weather forecast. Got a heat
Speaker 25: Advisor null effect tomorrow at eight pm. Yes, it'll be
Speaker 25: hot and humid today, very humid. They say it will
Speaker 25: be dry ninety one for the high of the heat
Speaker 25: index right at one hundred one hundred plus degrees overnight
Speaker 25: seventy three, clear and muggy. Tomorrow, partly cloudy, very humid
Speaker 25: again ninety two for the high with a low one
Speaker 25: hundred heat index, mostly cloudy overnight, maybe a scattered storm
Speaker 25: thrown in sixty eight the overnight low. Then Thursday a
Speaker 25: reprieve for the high of eighty two, cold front slowly
Speaker 25: coming in, mostly cloudy sky seventy five. Right now, time
Speaker 25: for a traffic update, Chuck Ingram.
Speaker 1: Probably you see how traumphic center?
Speaker 12: Do you see howth wavewoff center offers sergical and medico
Speaker 12: A bcdcreen expertise called five one three nine three nine

Speaker 1: That's nine three nine twenty two sixty three.
Speaker 12: Clear the wreck northbound fourth seventy one on the bridge
Speaker 12: right cleane open again.
Speaker 1: Damage done.
Speaker 12: You're banked up towards to seventy five stap bound seventy one.
Speaker 12: It's a slow go from fifer Off and onto Red Bank.
Speaker 12: They cleared the wrecked northbound seventy one above two seventy five.
Speaker 12: Chuck Ingram on fifty five krs the talk station.
Speaker 3: A twenty three company twenty four to fifty five krc
Speaker 3: ME talk station and observation. I since only have a
Speaker 3: minute here before we get to the day on Davis
Speaker 3: Deep Dive Bottom the hour and update on of course
Speaker 3: wars generally speaking, what disturbs me a lot, and it's
Speaker 3: sort of it reveals a slight bias in the reporting
Speaker 3: in the news. Has anybody ever read an article discussing
Speaker 3: Corey Bowman that does not contain the words brother of
Speaker 3: Vice President JD.
Speaker 13: Vance?
Speaker 3: Every single time the man's mansioned he's running from Mary
Speaker 3: of the city. Since saying he's not JD. Vance, he's
Speaker 3: his half brother. He's got no connection with the guy
Speaker 3: other than a blood relationship, and he has his own
Speaker 3: thoughts and opinions. He's not running for national office. He
Speaker 3: has no impact on national policy. He's just an advocate
Speaker 3: for the city of Cincinnati. But of course there are
Speaker 3: so many Trump haters out there, nobody affiliated with a
Speaker 3: Trump administration, of course, is going to be a bad point,
Speaker 3: and you gotta make it. Corey Bowman, brother of Vice
Speaker 3: President JD. Van's Okay, go ahead, keep it up. Just
Speaker 3: pay attention when you're reading. You can see this stuff.
Speaker 3: It sticks out like a sore thumb. Latest update on
Speaker 3: Russia Ukraine and of course say dangerous topic for me
Speaker 3: talking about Israel and Gaza and Iran. With Daniel Davis,
Speaker 3: we'll put some flesh on the bones. At that point
Speaker 3: when you get him on the program coming up next,
Speaker 3: they sure hope you can stick around.
Speaker 7: Fifty five KRC. The talk station.
Speaker 3: Channel nine says the following about the weather heat advisor
Speaker 3: to tomorrow at eight pm.
Speaker 5: Wait for it.
Speaker 3: We get a reprieve on Thursday, between now and then
Speaker 3: high ninety one to day with a low hundred heat index,
Speaker 3: very hot, very human, muggy. Overnight clear sky is seventy three,
Speaker 3: partly cloudy, very humid. Tomorrow with ninety two for a
Speaker 3: high and yeah, heat index of the lowe hundreds. Wednesday
Speaker 3: night sixty eight fody, maybe a scattered shower phone in there.
Speaker 3: And then finally Thursday, cole front slowly coming in. We're
Speaker 3: going to see high of just eighty two. Feel good,
Speaker 3: seventy five. Right now, time for traffic chuck.
Speaker 1: From the uc of traffic center.
Speaker 12: You see a weight mouth center offers sergical and medico
Speaker 12: OBCD Kren expertise called five one three ninety three nine
Speaker 12: two two sixty three. That's nine three nine twenty two

Speaker 12: to forty seven. Just here into spansions for a new
Speaker 12: wreck on northbound seventy one. Before you get to the
Speaker 12: Reagan Highway, traffic is all already backing up through Kenwood.
Speaker 12: Chuck Ingram on fifty five KRC Talk station, Hey, twenty eight, fifty.
Speaker 3: Five KRCD talk station, stating the obvious, it's Tuesday, and
Speaker 3: for regular listeners, dating the obvious, it's the time of
Speaker 3: week when we get the deep dive Daniel Davis Deep Dive.
Speaker 3: Find him online where you actually might run into me.
Speaker 3: I was on his program last week. It was a
Speaker 3: real honor to do so, welcome back, retired Lieutenant Colonel
Speaker 3: Daniel Davis. Got it got a lot of haters out there, man, well.
Speaker 4: Well we do.
Speaker 26: But you know that people what do they call it?
Speaker 26: Hate watching? Sometimes they just love to do that. But
Speaker 26: it was great to have you on the show.
Speaker 3: Well, I enjoyed it. I mean we talked about four
Speaker 3: or five different subject matters. But boy, I guess I
Speaker 3: really stepped in it when I had comments about Israel
Speaker 3: and no expert on you know, Israel, It's history or
Speaker 3: anything else. Just I'm just aware of what's in the
Speaker 3: news of late. But apparently that that was what hit
Speaker 3: a nerve. But I guess I'm used to that. You
Speaker 3: always hit a nerve with someone when you're talking about
Speaker 3: the deteriorating situation there between Israel, Gaza, and of course
Speaker 3: the terrorist organization. Yeah, and of course I have this
Speaker 3: when you and I talk about Israel.
Speaker 26: I think you've told me You've had some of the
Speaker 26: folks not lacking what I've said either, So I guess
Speaker 26: you just can't win on that.
Speaker 8: You can't. It is what it is.
Speaker 3: That's the fact it really is. And people have some
Speaker 3: very very very deep seated feelings about that. But before
Speaker 3: we talk about that, let's get the latest on rushing
Speaker 3: Ukraine another day. Know the same old, same old, it seems,
Speaker 3: you know. Don Trump it seems like he's pulling the
Speaker 3: plug on even trying anymore. Tries to sit down with
Speaker 3: Vladimir Putin, tries to get Putin to negotiate. But as
Speaker 3: you and I have observed and talked about regularly, Vladimir
Speaker 3: Putin's got his list of demands, he's not wavering from them.
Speaker 3: And so you end a discussion with nobody conceding to
Speaker 3: anything that he wants. You're not going to get a
Speaker 3: settlement and then the bombs and the drone start flying again.
Speaker 26: Well yeah, and you know what, I honestly find the
Speaker 26: whole episode puzzling. I mean, let's go back to when
Speaker 26: the fifty day deadline was set. I thought that was
Speaker 26: kind of odd because I didn't understand what was fifty
Speaker 26: days tied to. Why would you say, all right, we've
Speaker 26: already gone six months to the Trump administration, Why another
Speaker 26: fifty days? And why would that be any different? And
Speaker 26: then why did it go from fifty to now ten
Speaker 26: or a dozen something like that. But still we had
Speaker 26: the same thing lumin out that we did when that
Speaker 26: first fifty day deadline was set. What is going to
Speaker 26: happen if he tries to impose those secondary sanctions on
Speaker 26: Russia and the primer issues, not what they do to Russia,
Speaker 26: because Russia is basically sanctioned proof ready, it's the secondary
Speaker 26: sections that they slap the terrafs on China, India, Brazil
Speaker 26: and anyone else. They say, who does business with Russia
Speaker 26: with uh pydriccarbons, et cetera. I don't know that you're
Speaker 26: going to succeed if you're going to try to get
Speaker 26: our you know, our friend India to say don't buy
Speaker 26: Russian oil or it's gonna you know, get it from
Speaker 26: somewhere else Where else are you going to get it?
Speaker 26: And then, of course we have the issue with China.
Speaker 26: We're we're still in a trade issue with them. And
Speaker 26: if you slap another one hundred percent, I mean that
Speaker 26: it hurt us last time when we had one hundred
Speaker 26: and forty five percent. So I just don't see how
Speaker 26: this is going to help our case much less hurt Russia.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm with you on that. As as we enter
Speaker 3: into more thoughtful and I guess deep trade negotiations on
Speaker 3: tariffs with China, in our negotiation process with them process
Speaker 3: with them, these secondary tariffs, I think this is going
Speaker 3: to blow that up. I would imagine China's not going
Speaker 3: to stand for it in a discussion.
Speaker 26: Well, I mean, because you're you've spent so many months
Speaker 26: and so much you know, political capital trying to come
Speaker 26: up to some kind of a mutually acceptable financial deal
Speaker 26: and apparently there are making some progress. Yeah, but you
Speaker 26: task something like this on top, it'll literally blow up
Speaker 26: everything you've been doing and set us back, you know,
Speaker 26: several months, and that's just not going to be good.
Speaker 3: For American consumers or business. Well, let me ask you
Speaker 3: get your reaction to this, because my first reaction was
Speaker 3: this is childish. When we talk about, and we have before,
Speaker 3: when Ukraine wants to strike and strikes targets within Russia,
Speaker 3: you and I both scratch our head and wonder to
Speaker 3: what end. It's not like they're going to make advances
Speaker 3: and take over Russian territory. They don't have enough troops
Speaker 3: to keep the territory if they took it. But when
Speaker 3: they choose targets to bomb, last time I checked, it
Speaker 3: was resort towns. There's not even a military objective. If
Speaker 3: you're bombing a beat where people go to vacation, what
Speaker 3: possible benefit could that be? And of course then the
Speaker 3: Russians retaliate by bombing the Ukraine resort towns not military
Speaker 3: objectives either, those are civilian targets. So what's the point
Speaker 3: of this? Actually, again, it seems like children playing war games.
Speaker 26: Well, and part of the problem for the Ukraine side
Speaker 26: is that they don't have They have limited number of
Speaker 26: offensive missiles and drones, so they have some that can
Speaker 26: get in, but not that many. Russia, on the other hand,
Speaker 26: has more than enough air defense missiles. Unlike the Ukraine
Speaker 26: side and the Western side, who are in a significant
Speaker 26: dearth of those interceptor missiles, Russia has no shortage, but
Speaker 26: they have them. They do have a huge country, so
Speaker 26: they have to pick and chose where they put them.
Speaker 26: So on the militarily important targets they have a lot
Speaker 26: of air defense, so Ukraine doesn't want to waste its
Speaker 26: missiles where they don't even get you know, they don't
Speaker 26: even have video of burning buildings in Russia, so they
Speaker 26: go places where there aren't air defenses or they're not
Speaker 26: very many, and so they can get the video. Because
Speaker 26: this is all about just having impressions and media outlets.
Speaker 26: I mean, that's just the truth of it. They want
Speaker 26: the video footage to show that they're doing something. There
Speaker 26: is no military path, so it's not an issue that well,
Speaker 26: this won't help the front because nothing will, which of
Speaker 26: course exposes the absurdity of continuing to fight a ward.
Speaker 3: You can't win, no question about it. And this week
Speaker 3: after week after week, we keep coming up with the
Speaker 3: same conclusions, Daniel Davis, and we don't have the I
Speaker 3: think one of the things we learned from COVID is
Speaker 3: we need to start making our own stuff and not
Speaker 3: being so reliant on China. This is a moment of
Speaker 3: clarity for our US military because you know the world
Speaker 3: is clamoring for our weapons and asking for patriots and
Speaker 3: wanting this, and that we don't even have enough of
Speaker 3: our own You mentioned many times on this program. We
Speaker 3: talked about it last week. We can only make six
Speaker 3: hundred patriot missiles a year. I mean, I'm sorry. The
Speaker 3: demand is much greater than the supply, and we have
Speaker 3: an obligation to our our own people to protect our
Speaker 3: people from threats abroad and domestically, and for that you
Speaker 3: need a stockpile of weapons, and apparently we don't have enough.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I mean that's you said, it's a moment of clarity.
Speaker 26: I would say it should be a moment of carity,
Speaker 26: but it doesn't seem to be because I mean, what
Speaker 26: was it more than a year ago? Is when we
Speaker 26: expanded I got maybe two years ago we expanded our
Speaker 26: capacity because it was five hundred missiles pier at the
Speaker 26: outset of the war. Now is up to around six hundred.
Speaker 26: But I mean, unless I miss something, I haven't seen
Speaker 26: anybody say all right, we have this emergency contract here,
Speaker 26: We're gonna triple it or something to that effect. You know,
Speaker 26: we go way above what it is now that you
Speaker 26: see how many interceptions it takes to sustain combat.
Speaker 19: Clearly we don't have enough.
Speaker 26: And by the way, the last credible information I've forgotten
Speaker 26: from somebody who has access to the inside of the Pentagon,
Speaker 26: it'll take about five years for us to repay replace
Speaker 26: our own stock piles. And that number doesn't even start
Speaker 26: five years until we stop giving everything that comes off
Speaker 26: the Foundation to somebody else right now, to you know,
Speaker 26: to whether it's to Israel or the Ukraine.
Speaker 3: So we need to do something. So you say clarity,
Speaker 3: but I don't see that that clarity has turned into paulicy.
Speaker 3: It's okay, the European Union's gonna buy seven hundred and
Speaker 3: fifty billion dollars worth of military hardware from domestic military
Speaker 3: hardware manufacturers, thus ensuring the longevity of the military industrial complex. Yeah,
Speaker 3: and you know, I see that.
Speaker 26: Certainly from an American perspective, that's a big number.
Speaker 3: And then investing six hundred.
Speaker 26: Billion dollars in our energy all this, I mean, all
Speaker 26: that is really good, but I mean you still have
Speaker 26: that bottleneck there. It matters how much you can produce
Speaker 26: and how fast. So a lot of dollars are being
Speaker 26: thrown around, but you don't have the capacity to do
Speaker 26: anything bigger. You just have the ability for the status
Speaker 26: quo to continue to perpetuate for the military industrial complex.
Speaker 3: But that doesn't do a whole lot for our national security.
Speaker 3: All right, Daniel Davis, let's walk down that dangerous road
Speaker 3: and talk about Israel, Gaza and Iran. Now, obviously you
Speaker 3: and I, I think the whole world can agree there
Speaker 3: is a massive humanitarian crisis going on Gaza. There are
Speaker 3: people literally starving, and I think the one of the
Speaker 3: things I stepped in the other day was about this
Speaker 3: getting aid into gods and getting food to people who
Speaker 3: obviously need it. You know, the two sides every story.
Speaker 3: You got Israel and maybe they're a blamed. You got
Speaker 3: the Hamas terrorists maybe preventing the aid from getting into people.
Speaker 3: But as soon as aide shows up, it's like any
Speaker 3: group of starving people, it just turns absolutely chaotic. I know,
Speaker 3: I saw a massive crowd storming one of the aid trucks,
Speaker 3: and the UN obviously seems to me to be always
Speaker 3: seems to me to be a pointless exercise incapable of
Speaker 3: really providing any benefit anywhere. But they can't even seem
Speaker 3: to resolve the situation. How are we going to How
Speaker 3: can we just get food in there?
Speaker 26: Yeah, that's the central problem right now. The problem with
Speaker 26: the UN is they have no power. They can only
Speaker 26: have influence and they only try to say something. But
Speaker 26: that requires primarily Israel on the ground, because they're the
Speaker 26: only ones that actually have power over the situation. And
Speaker 26: just in a form of context for people to understand
Speaker 26: why we're in this starvation situation. Israel decided they didn't
Speaker 26: like the UN program that was feeding people undraw it's called,
Speaker 26: and so they shut that down and then they formed
Speaker 26: this new one, and of course they had shut it
Speaker 26: all from March up until just very recently. Now then
Speaker 26: they have four food designation points where they can have it.
Speaker 26: That's why you see this chaos here, because the entire
Speaker 26: gauze strip has to swarm, you know, torment on four points.
Speaker 26: They had four hundred before that, and so it's a
Speaker 26: lot easier to distribute food more orderly when you have
Speaker 26: multiple places.
Speaker 3: Where and routine food coming in.
Speaker 26: But unfortunately Israel has restricted it to four and the
Speaker 26: number of trucks is about one, I'm sorry, a fifth
Speaker 26: what is needed for just the basic sustenance airgo. You
Speaker 26: have people starving to death because there's not enough food
Speaker 26: getting into the population. And look, whatever you want to
Speaker 26: say about anything the policies or who's right or wrong,
Speaker 26: Israel has the power over the food. And right now
Speaker 26: they are not releasing, they're not opening the gates, and
Speaker 26: they're not letting the rest of the trucks get in.
Speaker 19: And we see what the result is.
Speaker 13: On the ground.
Speaker 3: And I have not looked for, nor have I read,
Speaker 3: an explanation for why it went for that approach. I
Speaker 3: presume on some measure Israel wants to manage the distribution
Speaker 3: of food to keep it out of the hands of
Speaker 3: Hamas and get it to the people who actually are starving.
Speaker 3: But that Hamas is quite often commandeering the food supplies.
Speaker 3: It's more food supplies, more trucks, more distribution centers. It
Speaker 3: seems to me might still be managed by Israel if
Speaker 3: they broaden the effort. But there is that threat of
Speaker 3: Hamas and that concern about Hamas taking the supplies from
Speaker 3: the people they purport to represent.
Speaker 26: Well, but the reality is you're not doing any of that,
Speaker 26: you're not preventing even the way they're doing it now,
Speaker 26: it's not preventing food forgetting to Hamas. They have no
Speaker 26: idea who's Hamas and who's just Palestinian. So by saying
Speaker 26: that's what they're trying to do, what they're doing is
Speaker 26: starving other people. You're not going to prevent that. You
Speaker 26: can't mean the Hamas is Palestine, I mean they are
Speaker 26: part of it. So you can't distinguish where the food
Speaker 26: goes because you Israel has no control what's where over
Speaker 26: where that food goes in those four distribution points. Once
Speaker 26: it goes in there, they don't know where it goes,
Speaker 26: whether it's four or four hundred. So that's not an
Speaker 26: attainable objective because it can't be met. But this is
Speaker 26: just not a military solvable question. And look, at some
Speaker 26: point you're just gonna have to say either Israel is
Speaker 26: going to literally starve everyone to death or they're going
Speaker 26: to have to open the gates. And they're coming under
Speaker 26: a lot more pressure. And I personally found that reprehensible
Speaker 26: that that's they're using starvation as a tool.
Speaker 3: It's yeah, Well, and the idea of using civilian captives
Speaker 3: as a tool. I find that in humanitary from a
Speaker 3: humanitarian inspective and an ethical perspective, pretty awful too. But
Speaker 3: what's the downside risk of just allowing opening the gates
Speaker 3: and allowing food in. We're not talking about military or
Speaker 3: anything like that, just letting the food in and letting
Speaker 3: it go where it may.
Speaker 26: Listen, Brian, we got to be honest and especially and
Speaker 26: I'm not talking secret stuff here. I'm talking absolute open
Speaker 26: discussion within his senior Israeli position and on Israeli media.
Speaker 26: They want the Palestinians out. They don't want to open
Speaker 26: the gates and let the food in. That would now
Speaker 26: then remove the pressure to get them. I think it's
Speaker 26: pretty clear from evidence that what they want is to
Speaker 26: compel or coerce other regional countries, whether that's in Africa.
Speaker 26: There's been some talk there or in other Arab countries
Speaker 26: that they want them to see how bad this is
Speaker 26: and say.
Speaker 19: Are will just alleviate the suffering.
Speaker 26: Let them come here, Let you know, five hundred thousand
Speaker 26: come here or something like that, or go anywhere, because
Speaker 26: they want them out. So there are many in Israel
Speaker 26: who don't want to solve that problem because they want
Speaker 26: to keep the pressure on that could possibly get them out.
Speaker 3: And that's just the uncomfortable truth. So they wanted to part.
Speaker 3: They wanted to be a big as an empty parking lot.
Speaker 3: That is what they want. They have a plan right now.
Speaker 3: It was out there just last week.
Speaker 26: There's many discussing openly the reoccupation of Gaza to Israeli people,
Speaker 26: meaning they have to first get the current occupants out.
Speaker 3: Complicated world we live in. I always love talking with
Speaker 3: you about it, which we could solve the problems of
Speaker 3: the world. But then again, you and I wouldn't have
Speaker 3: anything to talk about every Tuesday at eight thirty Daniel Davis,
Speaker 3: I would.
Speaker 26: Love it if we didn't have any we could talk
Speaker 26: about sports or ill seasons coming up.
Speaker 3: I'd rather do that and have that problem solved. I
Speaker 3: tell you what, I have said that so many times
Speaker 3: over the years. If all the problems of the world solved,
Speaker 3: I wouldn't have anything to talk about. That's fine. I'll
Speaker 3: find something else to do for a living. Daniel Davis
Speaker 3: Deep Dive find him online. You'll enjoy the podcast and
Speaker 3: the conversations he has throughout the week, and I certainly
Speaker 3: appreciate you let me on your show. Last week was
Speaker 3: a fun conversation, sir.

Speaker 3: Looking forward to having back on the program this morning.
Speaker 3: Smith Aman return to have a few more words to
Speaker 3: say about some of the comments that are rolling around
Speaker 3: about this incident over the weekend. Ken Blackwell on that
Speaker 3: same incident, of course, the beatdown that those two people, well,
Speaker 3: actually it's more than two. There are other videos floating
Speaker 3: around about violence and the knockout game appears to be
Speaker 3: what's at play here where you start recording knowing full
Speaker 3: well that your buddy's going to walk up and out
Speaker 3: of nowhere deck somebody and knock them out. Unconscious and then,
Speaker 3: of course in the one illustration, drag them into the street.
Speaker 3: Just brutal, vicious, animal like behavior. Anyway, Ken Blackwell on
Speaker 3: that we also heard his comments about I am so
Speaker 3: excited about the campaign of v Vake Ramas swiming for
Speaker 3: hearing the government over state of Ohio and sounds to
Speaker 3: me like Ken Blackwell's equally excited about him being our
Speaker 3: next governor. Andre Ewing thoroughly impressed by Andre's posting on Facebook.
Speaker 3: I suggest you check him out a n d Ari
Speaker 3: Andre Ewing Ewig. You don't have to be a friend
Speaker 3: with him on Facebook to see his rants, and they
Speaker 3: are well. He just does not pull any punches demanding
Speaker 3: a change in administration. He thinks police chief Thiji should resign.
Speaker 3: Police didn't want her in the first place. He thinks
Speaker 3: Cheryl Lung should resign because she's the one that put
Speaker 3: her in that position over the objections of many of
Speaker 3: the officers. So listen to the podcast at fifty five
Speaker 3: KC dot com and check him out on Facebook. Of course,
Speaker 3: the Inside Scoop with Colin Maydine about artificial intelligence and
Speaker 3: his comments on Bright Bartch reporting on the Brawlin Cincinnati
Speaker 3: and why it went viral. Interesting in the student observations
Speaker 3: from Colin and speaking of Facebook, a Signal ninety nine,
Speaker 3: apparently a retired police officer, kind of remains anonymous but
Speaker 3: has some really interesting posts and is widely followed by
Speaker 3: a lot of people in greater Cincinnati area, so you
Speaker 3: may already aready be familiar. The page describes itself as
Speaker 3: a spicy meme page for ops, firefighters, medics and dispatchers.
Speaker 3: So this person has connections within the Cincinni Police Department
Speaker 3: and put a post up a few hours ago. Spoke
Speaker 3: with a command staff homey CPDS Ivory Tower, who's pretty
Speaker 3: pissed off about what happened on Fourth Street over the weekend.
Speaker 3: Rights this is how the conversation went, and it's a
Speaker 3: me hymn thing, So Signal ninety nine. And then the
Speaker 3: command staff person that he's talking to, so Signal ninety nine.
Speaker 3: Just how many officers were working in the downtown Central
Speaker 3: Business section Friday night? Response? There were only three officers
Speaker 3: assigned to work that Friday night, although there were several
Speaker 3: extra squads and units working. CDRT and Squad ninety nine.
Speaker 3: What about during the events? Response definitely adequately adequate coverage
Speaker 3: until about two o'clock in the morning, Signal ninety nine.
Speaker 3: They were all working third shift or power shift response.
Speaker 3: The three officers were working second shift until two thirty
Speaker 3: and the special units worked until two am. Ninety nine.
Speaker 3: What about the Chief's new groovy task force? Did they
Speaker 3: work past two o'clock in the morning? His response, doubtful,
Speaker 3: I mean no comment. He then went on say Reds
Speaker 3: five one three and jazz Fest were all over before
Speaker 3: two am. The detail officers secured around two am, so
Speaker 3: the CBS had to deal with the aftermath and those
Speaker 3: who didn't leave downtown with only the three officers ninety nine,
Speaker 3: So after two am, how many officers were there to
Speaker 3: handle the after crowds from the Reds game, the five
Speaker 3: one three event in JazzFest response? All event officers left
Speaker 3: at or before two am. That left three third shift
Speaker 3: relief officers and two more PVO that left at four am.
Speaker 3: Those five officers and the three events and the rest
Speaker 3: of the district to respond to, that's a lot of
Speaker 3: square miles, folks, at a lot of people to have
Speaker 3: to contend with. It's just interject that ninety nine says,
Speaker 3: do you feel that there was sufficient coverage for that
Speaker 3: many events going on Friday night into Saturday morning. Response.
Speaker 3: Allow me to steal a quote from the Grand Pooba
Speaker 3: Absolutely not ninety nine concludes, thank you for your time
Speaker 3: in honesty is response, thank you for getting the word out?
Speaker 3: Looks like it really got out this time. Referring to
Speaker 3: his web page, the Signal ninety nine page, which you
Speaker 3: can follow as well. Response, Yeah, I keep waiting for
Speaker 3: Elon to call me, but the only people blowing up
Speaker 3: my phone or reporters response, yeah, I don't miss that.
Speaker 3: Take care, so three count them? And the other component
Speaker 3: of this, which I thought was rather interesting, because police
Speaker 3: Chief Thiji was talking about the response time, which is
Speaker 3: about six minutes according to wlwg's reporting. Chief Thigi said
Speaker 3: Cincinnati officers had a response time of six minutes in
Speaker 3: part due to the heavy traffic in the downtown area
Speaker 3: at the time, which say, we you what about the traffic?
Speaker 3: Three am usually isn't a really packed street kind of time.
Speaker 3: But what that think I also what I think that
Speaker 3: also speaks to is the three officers that were available
Speaker 3: weren't anywhere near the area they had to drive to
Speaker 3: get there. Lee's one to sort of kind of want
Speaker 3: to ask the question, were there enough officers out there
Speaker 3: at the time? Are there enough officers at any given time,
Speaker 3: given the shortage of staff that we were facing right now,
Speaker 3: will the mayor do anything about it? Legitimate questions. You know,
Speaker 3: sometimes good things can come from bad events, and let's
Speaker 3: only hope that we get a change in strategy and
Speaker 3: policing in downtown Cincinnati for the better, because clearly we
Speaker 3: are on the wrong trajectory. Find the podcast if you
Speaker 3: five Casey dot com, tune and tomorrow for judgment. Paula Tana.
Speaker 3: Thank you Joe Streker for the wonderful guest lineup this morning.
Speaker 3: It was really great to be able to talk to
