him doing something wrong it would be something different you know okay okay I saw a video man I'm thinking was out of North Carolina where some guy was recording a police officer who had pulled somebody over for I think it was a broken taillight or turn signal or something okay and nobody was doing anything wrong and he had his camera on you know what he caught it all of a sudden it went from nobody doing anything wrong to somebody getting shot in the back as he ran away yeah you know what I mean so that's why we record even when there's nothing happening you know what I mean just because there's nothing happening right now doesn't mean you're not going to go rob the bail bonds right down there on the corner all the Moriya most crimes are committed by people who know them especially sexual crimes I hope you're not gonna rape him no all right so appreciate you would go ahead take it off unfortunately i livestream so it's already broadcast all over the world you still

tomorrow there so you might lose your job no no no I don't I don't it's hard to say yeah it could happen I don't know I don't know what's gonna happen it's it's either it's one away one way or the other it's either yes the vote for it or no not before that's how it's gonna go 32 yes the boatport are Nonaka before that's how it's gonna go and and what tax is this again it's a user sales tax online on the online user sales tax and it's where they get right now the city does not have the users online sales tax and independence right town does not have it a blue blue springs has it the summers got it but they tried back several months last year to do it and it did not pass tomorrow well I should know something by Wednesday morning so correct me if I'm wrong does that mean that basically the city is trying to say we want sales tax on stuff that you purchase online like you you buy something on Amazon you buy something from Texas you can't it you can't do it without giving us a cut there's no tax yeah but right now it's what they want the city wants a cut of it city wants a tax on right okay so are you aware of kind of how the Mafia model works mafias used to run a lot of cities in some places they still do and what they do is they go around and they say look nobody here can do business with each other unless you go through us well that's the old style thing we're back when yeah exactly right so they step in and say alright this is my territory between like Oh let's say main road up there I don't even know if there's a main road over there but main road up there and sycamore street down here and and these these are my my my areas this is a anybody who wants to do business in this area you got to give me money and then they'll say you know besides that you know we'll offer you protection too right you give us so can you explain to me how the Mafia model might be different than a a municipality yeah I can't I can't I cannot I don't know anything about it really honestly I don't but it's kind of essentially the same thing going around and saying hey if you want to do business here you'll give me a cut if you don't I'm gonna send guys with guns to shoot your place up well really just to take you and put you in a cage right but should you defend yourself against my goons when they come to put you in a cage for not paying the Mafia protection fee it's gonna be a showdown all right it's gonna be a Waco right yeah anyway I hate to cut you short but I got we gotta get going she lives here in a little bit so she gets off work so cool um hey just think about it because you might be working for a mafia I don't know for sure I don't know you you might be working for a mafia model I know and that would mean you're accepting dirty money yes oh yeah yeah I'm on the way back oh okay yeah yeah all right talk to you about okay all right appreciate you chatting man hey just think about it you might be taking dirty money
