We’re scared for our law enforcement officers, our firefighters, our canines, you know, one time they're out there trying to save somebody's life. You know, even just, you know, trying to resuscitate somebody back, you know, can cause them to overdose also, you've taken a poison, and you magnified it 20 to 100 times. So you're, you know, basically going to be destroying people the first time they take it.

Where's the evidence that somebody over 50 benefits from a fourth dose ? Because the evidence to date appears to support the possibility for those over 65, although I haven't, we haven't, seen all the data, but where's the evidence for a 50 to 64 year old ? Where's that evidence ? Because absent that evidence, then there shouldn't be this recommendation.

When do we come together as a community and as a city and say enough is enough? An 11-month-old child was shot two months ago, last week, a 7-year-old child was shot. Why does it take a 3-year-old to get us outraged? What about the 14- and 15-year-olds? They're children. They're getting shot, sometimes by other children. We need to fix this. We need to save these children and we need to save our city.

Absolutely. To me, that's the test of everything at this point. It should be common knowledge within black America that the government of the United States is not our way out. Our way out is ourselves. The government must enforce the rights and so forth in a democratic society that [are] due [to] all people. But the government can't teach your 2-year-old child to read, your 3-year-old, 4-year-old, they can't teach your child what good manners are, how to love themselves, how to appreciate themselves and yet ask something of themselves at the same time. Mothers and fathers do that. So we need more mothers and fathers to be doing that. You're doing that in your community center, you're telling these young people that a good, happy life is possible if you develop yourself to possess it, put yourself in a position to possess it. That's the hope of black America. Everything else has been tried. It's all failed.

Russia's not writing on a clean slate. Russia has had a state sponsored doping program since at least the 1960s. It is very well established, it is heavily documented. And so when any Russian athlete tests positive, the Russian state is not doing anyone any favors because there is now a presumption of guilt instead of a presumption of innocence, which for a 15-year-old skater is terrible.
