Avila's and Crystal Hudson.
2:41:20
So it's crazy that you know, this topic is about protecting older adults, and we all need protecting older adults.
2:41:29
There's a big issue in New York City that's called crime.
2:41:31
Right?
2:41:32
Against older adults.
2:41:34
Now, the big issue that I see here is is these nonproposescope force, many nice Mainly Elmkor, Mainly Deshikolation, and there's a lot of these other nonprofits that know what's going on.
2:41:51
And all they care about is keeping those foundation money, keep them rolling in like the 4 foundation and open societies, and all these other dirty corrupt foundations that all they care about is a allowing this crime to happen in the cities like here, and they had the elected officials cow down to the agenda.
2:42:15
The way you protect older adults in New York City is barrel form.
2:42:20
You have to repeal barrel form.
2:42:21
The city council has to really push they're appealing a bearer form.
2:42:25
Now if you don't want a bearer form, I get it, you need to help to tell the state the the state assembly and the state senate.
2:42:32
And the governor to put more laws and to protect older adults when we get when they get assaulted, harassed, and threatened.
2:42:40
You don't see that at all.
2:42:42
And it's all all about votes.
2:42:44
It's all about keeping the votes in certain districts like in corona, and in Sunset Park.
2:42:50
That's all it's about.
2:42:51
It's disgusting.
2:42:52
So like I said, we need to repeal we need to repeal the bearer form.
2:42:56
We have to put more laws in particularly's older adults.
2:42:59
And we have to tell these nonprofits to do the right thing instead of try to try to worry about the next payout from the 4 foundation over the societies that are for crime and that's for assaulting for the assault to older people.
2:43:11
So that's all I gotta say.
2:43:12
Thank you.
