1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,880 All citizens input has been canceled for the foreseeable future, 2 00:00:02,880 --> 00:00:05,920 according to the mayor of the Frisco City Council. 3 00:00:05,920 --> 00:00:09,520 This is actually sadly understandable because we've seen a large 4 00:00:09,520 --> 00:00:14,800 influx of outside agitators spewing straight up white supremacist rhetoric, 5 00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:18,000 uh, two of whom are January 6th rioters. 6 00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:20,240 One of the January 6th rioters came here all the 7 00:00:20,240 --> 00:00:20,880 way from Florida. 8 00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:23,280 So when I say outside agitators, I mean it. 9 00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:26,400 Guys, it is so heartbreaking to see that the Denton 10 00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:31,840 County Republican Party chair, Melinda Preston, would express her concern 11 00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:35,280 over what she says is going on in Frisco, yet 12 00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:37,600 not express any concern over the fact she's in the 13 00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:40,560 same room as two January 6th rioters. 14 00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:43,040 She knows who Larry Brock is. 15 00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:45,600 She knows, because after all, she tried to help his 16 00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:49,040 campaign by having her precinct chairs vote to ban Jared 17 00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:52,400 Patterson, our Republican State House representative, which would have cleared 18 00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:55,680 the path for Larry Brock, the zip tie guy, to 19 00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:58,720 gain control of being a House representative. 20 00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:00,320 This is nuts. 21 00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:03,520 What happened in the Frisco City Council a couple of 22 00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:06,080 weeks ago is absolutely disgusting. 23 00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:07,760 There's all sorts of terrible rhetoric. 24 00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:09,760 And last night, when I went to the Frisco City 25 00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:12,320 Council, by the way, I could not get into the 26 00:01:12,320 --> 00:01:16,480 building without going directly around a group of people who 27 00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:21,760 were protesting while spewing white supremacist rhetoric, Christian nationalist rhetoric, 28 00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:24,320 and were armed with an AR-15. 29 00:01:24,320 --> 00:01:27,600 Multiple people armed with an AR-15. 30 00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:30,000 The same group of people would then chant the words, 31 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:32,400 quote, Jews will not replace us, Jews. 32 00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:36,880 This is disgusting. 33 00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:39,360 Hate has no place in Frisco. 34 00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:41,600 Hate has no place in Frisco. 35 00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:44,160 Diversity is what makes us strong, by the way. 36 00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:46,240 We have thriving schools. 37 00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:50,400 We have thriving businesses, and it's our diversity that makes 38 00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:51,040 us strong. 39 00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:52,960 We need to stand against the hate. 40 00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:56,160 This residents of Frisco deserve better than this. 41 00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:59,040 I also want to add in too, as to why 42 00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:02,280 I believe this has become such a problem in Frisco. 43 00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:05,080 It's not because people are concerned about HB1 visas 44 00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:07,240 After all, if you were concerned about an HB1 visa, 45 00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:09,320 you wouldn't go to a mayor or a city council, 46 00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:11,400 you'd go to your congressman to complain about that. 47 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:12,760 But that's beside the point. 48 00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:15,320 The reason that we're seeing such an influx of outside 49 00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:18,600 agitators is because in reality, they're content creators. 50 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:21,160 And they see Frisco City Council and they'll say, ooh, 51 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:25,160 Frisco City Council gives five minutes to speak, both to 52 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:27,560 people who live in the city and to those who 53 00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:28,840 don't live in the city. 54 00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:32,360 Guys, when I go to Louisville ISD with my friend 55 00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:35,960 Stephanie Draper, Strephani gets one minute to speak. 56 00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:39,160 I get multiple minutes because I live in Frisco ISD. 57 00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:42,760 Unfortunately, the Frisco City Council does not prioritize their own 58 00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:43,880 constituents. 59 00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:46,920 Most other city councils, even to their own residents, give 60 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:49,160 us three minutes to speak tops. 61 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:51,320 Frisco gives five. 62 00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:54,440 To content creators, that's money on the table. 63 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:57,000 And that's why we have seen those large conflicts. 64 00:02:57,480 --> 00:03:00,680 Look, diversity is something to be celebrated. 65 00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:04,040 Frisco is a wonderful place to live and surrounding areas. 66 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:07,160 We have great schools, businesses are flourishing, and I say 67 00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:09,560 it's because of our diversity. 68 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:13,240 Diversity is what makes us stronger, not weaker. 69 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:17,640 And running around like this, spewing your mouth of hatred 70 00:03:17,640 --> 00:03:21,160 and bigotry, that does not belong in Frisco. 71 00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:25,400 Hate has no place in Frisco. 72 00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:29,240 To the mayor, I understand why you felt like it 73 00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:31,560 was necessary to end the citizens' input. 74 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:32,840 It's so unfortunate. 75 00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:35,160 I can tell you, as someone who did not feel 76 00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:38,680 safe myself, walking around a large group of people who 77 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:42,880 were armed by the way, supposed protesters armed with high-power 78 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:44,840 assault rifles in front of City Hall, I did not 79 00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:46,000 feel safe. 80 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:47,120 What you got? 81 00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:49,280 Daniel Mark 18? 82 00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:51,280 This is becoming a security issue 83 00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:54,400 It's so sad that this is what has come of 84 00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:55,600 come of it. 85 00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:57,600 But we need to stay in solidarity. 86 00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:00,960 We need to stay in solidarity to our neighbors and 87 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,920 the residents who live here in Frisco. 88 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:07,440 They do deserve better than to be harassed. 89 00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:08,800 They deserve better. 90 00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:12,000 To our neighbors in Frisco, I want to support you 91 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:13,520 in any way that I can. 92 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:15,440 And together, we're going to be strong.
