Duncanville City Council Meeting April 7, 2009

Just prior to these moments here, Mr. Ford started speaking about something the mayor said earlier during the briefing (also open to the public), something about how a council member should act during a meeting. During the briefing, the mayor talked about how Mr. Ford has been disruptive, and said if there are any other outbursts, he (the mayor) will have the council member removed. So, during the Council Meeting proper, Mr. Ford reiterated what the mayor had said during the briefing. The Mayor responded that Mr. Ford was out of order, then asked the city manager to ask Mr. Ford to leave the chamber. That’s where this video picks up. To see the council meeting in its entirety, see a link (it seems that this vid was posted quicker than the expected 2-3 days) at http://www.duncanville.com/streaming.shtm Scroll to right and find the April 7 meeting.

Duration : 0:3:17

    where is this? I want to follow this. You can not have people arrested. You Mr Green are a fascist and need to be removed asshole.

    I think Green needs to have his back ground completly checked.

    I believe this is …
    I believe this is called fascism. Why didnt the mayor have a vote of city counsel members to have him removed or let him continue as is required. Green obviously thinks he has more power than he does. I Brand Mr Green Communist by his own actions. Mr Green needs to be put in jail.

    Free speech does not convey the right to say whatever you want whenever you want. Wake up

  18. ArizonaSean Says:

    When a city council …
    When a city council member can’t even speak you’ve got real problems.

    If you like being tracked, keep your photo radar cameras. Remember, a foreign corporation is watching your intersections, streets, and school zones – a terrorist’s dream. If an employee of a photo radar company likes the way your kid, wife, or car look they know where to find you. They have access to your DMV records.

    Did the guy they took out lay any law suits?

  20. paisleyyama Says:

    This guy was …
    This guy was speaking for the ppl he represented but has consistently been shut off and ignored. If you want a mayor that will only listen to ppl who share his views and don`t want to hear the views of others then yes we all need a realilty check, but if you want a mayor that will listen to all representatives and give each consideration as well as thinking about what is best for the ppl and spending the ppl`s $ responsibly, then this video needs to be taken seriously.

  21. paisleyyama Says:

    No this isn`t about …
    No this isn`t about Texans. It was a Texan standing up for the rights of people. This is about government officials who abuse their powers and ignore and even silence the voice of the people. This is happening everywhere in America not just TX.

  25. ninjapimp2181 Says:

    OK fair point I did …
    OK fair point I did not get the 30 seconds of Mr ford speaking off topic, so I guess I did not get the whole story. But I also did not get the “Pro Dunkers” who got up and took pictures of Paul getting lifted by the cops to be used in a mail out against him. Or how some of them quietly cheered when it happened. Also how is speaking off topic about something the mayor said in the briefing acting like an ass, and why should someone be beat because of it?
