WEBVTT

1
00:00:04.960 --> 00:00:05.280
<v Speaker 1>Around.

2
00:00:05.480 --> 00:00:12.039
<v Speaker 2>This is the seventy seven WABC Mini cast Back to

3
00:00:12.080 --> 00:00:17.000
<v Speaker 2>the Bones we Go, Line one, Vincent and Brooklyn, New

4
00:00:17.079 --> 00:00:18.800
<v Speaker 2>York Vincent. What's on your Mind?

5
00:00:19.039 --> 00:00:22.519
<v Speaker 1>Dominic in Italy in the odd cities, you drive a

6
00:00:22.719 --> 00:00:25.640
<v Speaker 1>bicycle the wrong way down the street, on the wrong

7
00:00:25.760 --> 00:00:28.920
<v Speaker 1>side of the street, they'll take your bikes. They'll give

8
00:00:28.960 --> 00:00:32.799
<v Speaker 1>you a ticket, and they take your bicycle. They put

9
00:00:32.880 --> 00:00:36.479
<v Speaker 1>it on a truck, they bring it to the police depot.

10
00:00:36.960 --> 00:00:40.719
<v Speaker 1>You have a month to pay that ticket without interest,

11
00:00:41.159 --> 00:00:44.560
<v Speaker 1>then the interest dots securing. Then they send you a

12
00:00:44.640 --> 00:00:47.920
<v Speaker 1>letter after six months that if you don't come down

13
00:00:47.960 --> 00:00:51.240
<v Speaker 1>and pay your bill, they're gonna the bikes that are

14
00:00:51.280 --> 00:00:54.159
<v Speaker 1>still usable, They clean them up, fix them up, and

15
00:00:54.200 --> 00:00:57.079
<v Speaker 1>they give them to the kids in the orphanages. And

16
00:00:57.200 --> 00:01:00.679
<v Speaker 1>I saw with my own eyes they have one dude

17
00:01:01.039 --> 00:01:04.319
<v Speaker 1>that dresses like a construction worker with the hard hat

18
00:01:04.400 --> 00:01:07.000
<v Speaker 1>and the vest and everything, but he's got to walk.

19
00:01:07.040 --> 00:01:09.719
<v Speaker 1>He talk you on the shoulder, and around the corner

20
00:01:09.959 --> 00:01:14.200
<v Speaker 1>they have the regular cops in uniform with the flatbed truck.

21
00:01:14.560 --> 00:01:18.280
<v Speaker 1>And when the guy who's ever making the infraction, the

22
00:01:18.319 --> 00:01:21.319
<v Speaker 1>worker with the vest on calls up his brothers around

23
00:01:21.359 --> 00:01:24.959
<v Speaker 1>the corner say says the lady with the orange shirt,

24
00:01:25.040 --> 00:01:27.799
<v Speaker 1>the man with the pink whatever, and then when you

25
00:01:28.040 --> 00:01:31.319
<v Speaker 1>turn the corner, the cops bust you. And in Italy,

26
00:01:31.400 --> 00:01:35.519
<v Speaker 1>if you're over sixteen, you have to walk around with ID,

27
00:01:35.920 --> 00:01:39.359
<v Speaker 1>let alone ID to vote and they take your stuff

28
00:01:39.480 --> 00:01:43.319
<v Speaker 1>right from you. No, I fans are butts. And because

29
00:01:43.400 --> 00:01:48.439
<v Speaker 1>they say you were doing the infraction, that's a moving violation.

30
00:01:49.079 --> 00:01:52.040
<v Speaker 1>It's not that you're gonna get the ticket, rip it

31
00:01:52.159 --> 00:01:54.200
<v Speaker 1>up and go home and do what they do in

32
00:01:54.239 --> 00:01:57.040
<v Speaker 1>New York City. And then you're sub criminal in the

33
00:01:57.120 --> 00:02:01.799
<v Speaker 1>subway station that goes beating up on somebody because you

34
00:02:01.879 --> 00:02:04.879
<v Speaker 1>were let out of jail twenty times. They don't do

35
00:02:05.000 --> 00:02:05.799
<v Speaker 1>that over there.

36
00:02:06.799 --> 00:02:12.560
<v Speaker 2>So, Vincent, how did things get so crazy here in America?

37
00:02:14.520 --> 00:02:19.120
<v Speaker 2>I guess with the lax laws, but more specifically them bicycles.

38
00:02:19.319 --> 00:02:22.639
<v Speaker 1>It's like the third world here. I remember when Nixon

39
00:02:23.000 --> 00:02:26.319
<v Speaker 1>when they were doing the opening up to China and everything,

40
00:02:26.400 --> 00:02:28.960
<v Speaker 1>and all the news stations went down there and they

41
00:02:29.039 --> 00:02:32.759
<v Speaker 1>showed that boulevard with the red square and no with

42
00:02:33.000 --> 00:02:36.120
<v Speaker 1>mouth saydungs picture in the background, and you saw all

43
00:02:36.159 --> 00:02:41.319
<v Speaker 1>these Chinese people on bicycles. Dominic. You think you're in Bangkok.

44
00:02:41.479 --> 00:02:44.080
<v Speaker 1>Around here, it looks like the Third World with these

45
00:02:44.120 --> 00:02:48.879
<v Speaker 1>people going every which way but loose. In the bicycle lane. Tonight,

46
00:02:48.960 --> 00:02:51.479
<v Speaker 1>my girlfriend told me she almost got hit by one.

47
00:02:51.800 --> 00:02:55.319
<v Speaker 1>The guy was going the wrong way with a motor

48
00:02:55.360 --> 00:03:00.000
<v Speaker 1>bike in the bicycle a motor scooter with no plates.

49
00:03:00.159 --> 00:03:04.120
<v Speaker 1>Two God like it. Because Mandami wants all his homeboys

50
00:03:04.159 --> 00:03:08.159
<v Speaker 1>to come over here and pull that nonsense. It's our politics.

51
00:03:08.280 --> 00:03:12.159
<v Speaker 1>The Democrats fault for doing this because they want they

52
00:03:12.199 --> 00:03:17.960
<v Speaker 1>want the votes. You know. Also with all the other garbages,

53
00:03:18.360 --> 00:03:22.759
<v Speaker 1>free free, free, free, free, you know what.

54
00:03:23.120 --> 00:03:28.439
<v Speaker 2>I wasn't gonna say it myself, but it's one of

55
00:03:28.439 --> 00:03:31.080
<v Speaker 2>the reasons why I don't go to the mall anymore

56
00:03:31.759 --> 00:03:34.319
<v Speaker 2>because in my mall is going out of business in

57
00:03:34.400 --> 00:03:37.560
<v Speaker 2>Rockland County, New York. But every time I walk into

58
00:03:37.639 --> 00:03:40.840
<v Speaker 2>the mall, I feel like I'm in the United Nations exactly.

59
00:03:41.719 --> 00:03:45.800
<v Speaker 2>There's a million people there, not from the local community.

60
00:03:46.400 --> 00:03:48.800
<v Speaker 2>And when you're paying local taxes. So we have like

61
00:03:48.919 --> 00:03:51.439
<v Speaker 2>bare mountain up by where I live in Rockland and

62
00:03:51.479 --> 00:03:53.960
<v Speaker 2>by the way Vincent, I don't know what cities and

63
00:03:53.960 --> 00:03:56.319
<v Speaker 2>in Vincent, I do have to step on, but move

64
00:03:56.360 --> 00:03:59.159
<v Speaker 2>on because I'm out of time. But I can tell

65
00:03:59.199 --> 00:04:02.680
<v Speaker 2>you folks that in New York right now, it's raining

66
00:04:02.800 --> 00:04:06.599
<v Speaker 2>right and I just love when it's raining. I consider

67
00:04:06.639 --> 00:04:09.759
<v Speaker 2>it so romantic. Now I'm gonna get wet, but there's

68
00:04:09.800 --> 00:04:14.520
<v Speaker 2>nothing more perfect to sleep in than when it's raining.

69
00:04:15.000 --> 00:04:18.360
<v Speaker 2>But you know, Mom, Donnie, crack down on the bike lanes.

70
00:04:18.439 --> 00:04:22.000
<v Speaker 2>This is not a third world. It's not Uganda. This

71
00:04:22.079 --> 00:04:27.279
<v Speaker 2>is New York. Be a leader, ma'm Donnie, do something,

72
00:04:27.639 --> 00:04:31.959
<v Speaker 2>Do something, Mom, Donnie. I am back at three pm

73
00:04:32.120 --> 00:04:34.600
<v Speaker 2>Eastern later on today. Have a great day.
