I remember this and it was quite impactful watching it. I wonder what ever happened to the school board? They should have high-tailed it out there.
Oldish clip but first time I'm seeing it and I have a raging freedom boner over it.
Good on this mayor
This is the fucking way
Charge them all
Sadly, the only one who resigned was the mayor.
This happened a while back. Twitter comment says that no one resigned, but mayor had to because of unrelated matter.
No way. I hope this isn't accurate. That would be awful.
lol wtf
He unfortunately wound up resigning last month after voicing his opinion on ice fishing leading to prostitution 🫤
Oh man, I missed it the first time around apparently. I'm on his side tho.
“My comment about ice fishing, the permitting of shanties on lakes, and prostitution stems from my experience as a former television news reporter covering law enforcement agencies, which have made arrests for acts of prostitution in ice fishing shanties. When discussing proposed legislation, it is wise to discuss the potential for unintended consequences. My statement was to enlighten council that the future permitting of ice shanties may lead to other issues.”
"My comments at Tuesday’s workshop were made out of concern for our community; what could become of unintended consequences of new legislation, based on my prior television news reporting experience," Shubert wrote. "My attempt to inject a bit of dry humor to make a point about this, in the midst of a cold, snowy February, was grossly misunderstood.
“Some in our community saw this as an opportunity to engage in the politics of personal destruction by means of character assassination, blaming me for the negative international press they helped to promote."
Sounded like his heart was really in it. This is his resignation statement. So sad. https://www.beaconjournal.com/story/news/2022/02/14/hudson-ohio-mayor-craig-shubert-issues-statement-resignation-ice-fishing-prostiution-school-board/6784103001/
School board stayed and the mayor was essentially forced out.
Why "OR"? It should be you will resign AND you will be charged.
Came to say the same. At least he tried
BOOM!! At the great level!!!
Even just being charged with child pornography distribution as a teacher would be taking a meat cleaver to your career.
The most powerful statements are the shortest ones. He didn't sit there and blather on and on. He distilled it down to the least number of words and hit them square between the eyes with it.
Sad that we give them the option.
How many times will this old ass video get reposted.
So tired of the content of this site getting continually worse.
Nicer guy than me....
Or was the mayor forced to resign, because Hudson, Ohio is an affluent, liberal town? Liberals tend to support all the ugliness: LGBQT, Drag Queen Story Hour, pedophilia, JRB, Covid shots, abortion, etc. when the school board is corrupt but has liberal backing, they will find ways to defame and threaten you to do their bidding.
"Resign or get thrown in jail".
Why should child predators get away with a simple resignation?
