Gravy at the Metro Council meeting last night (YouTube)

i love how these people can sell stupidity like "WE HAD MORE PEOPLE SHOW UP AT THIS MEETING" as a legit argument and people buy into it

that's not how this works

it's just like Gravy thought he had a "gotcha" with Buddy voting no and this somehow was "precedent" for the group abstaining together to force he governor to make a selection. they're legitimately nothing alike but it's "precedent"

This was a big night for them with a bunch of no shows from the council. Many folks also wanted people who did not live in the district to take the seat.

I would like to have the seat. I live 700 miles from the district and will promise not to show up. When do we get paid?

So the dysfunction of the council was on full public display last night. Now imagine how bad it is behind the scenes on a daily basis.

If this is the “unity” that the council and the mayor are constantly talking about then there is no hope for the parish of EBR


Scott Wilson said it best, albeit in a joking manor, after Chauna started speaking the first time. She addressed him in a formal manor and his response was "That's not what you called me back there".

He said it jokingly but I would be willing to bet Chauna calls him racist, etc every day behind the scenes. I would not want to put up to that kind of abuse for 4 years.

The only unity these people seek is an all black council and administration. This is nothing more than seeking racial revenge and the sad part is that they're doing this in the name of God. It amazes me how they can invoke God's name while they're doing something so vindictive.

Emotional after Buddy's wife gets the seat and then you have to hear someone get up and attack what the council just did. He shouldn't have even been given a chance to get back up and speak.

Because she was hoping to get a Democrat appointed to that seat and, like the others there, actually thought they would be able to make things happen in North Baton Rouge in the next 9-months before a Republican was elected to that seat.

I'm actually kind of baffled that anyone actually holds the Metro Council responsible for the lack of business wanting to move to North Baton Rouge. How exactly is that the fault of the Metro Council? The zoning is all there, its just that no good business want to move into the middle of the murder and robbery capital of the south.

This will be the turning point in making Gravy finally totally irrelevant. He's all about black folks until they dont side with just black folks.

They’ve got most of the council members there and on the phone. It’s been a great segment.
