Summary

I was a victim of road rage last night and the cops were called to the scene to handle the situation. I m not the guy you want to call when bad stuff happens, you call the cops. I have more respect for the cops in this city than you can imagine.


Transcript

00:00:00.000 good morning I decided to go live this morning after an incident that happened to me last night
00:00:16.000 if you look at my face you can see that I'm not doing so well I got patch up on my arm here as
00:00:26.520 well my elbow was messed up last night a little bit um this is gonna be a quick video but I was a
00:00:35.500 victim of what seemed kind of like road rage last night but not really it was two young punks who
00:00:47.140 passed me on the right side of my vehicle just a couple blocks from my house and then accused me
00:00:52.980 of cutting them off and they were passing me at 70 to 80 kilometers an hour so anybody who thinks
00:01:02.160 that this city isn't in a crisis when it comes to safety and everywhere not just downtown but
00:01:11.540 downtown's a bad spot but everywhere look at my face if you want to defund the police I am NOT the guy you
00:01:21.780 want to talk to those cops who came last night were wonderful they took care of me they took a statement
00:01:30.960 they told me they were already able to potentially locate the car of these two young pukes who did
00:01:39.840 this to me so if I get a little emotional I apologize for that but it's tough when you
00:01:45.900 get jumped and have the hell beat out of you you know cities in a state of lawlessness in some spots
00:01:54.400 and if we get rid of the police it's gonna be worse so how about no like who do you call when bad stuff
00:02:02.460 happens you don't call a social worker you don't call somebody to come and give you a hug right away
00:02:07.620 you call the cops I have more respect for the police in this city than you can imagine anyway
00:02:16.800 so you can tell I'm angry I'm emotional I'm hurting I look like crap but this is where we're at right
00:02:25.900 now Edmonton this is the kind of stuff that needs to change
00:02:29.000 so defunding the police is a big no period anyway I gotta go um hopefully heal a little bit
00:02:41.820 so thanks so much for watching we'll see you guys again soon
00:02:45.000 you
