    They need to sue the attorney and file a complaint with the bar. They need to consult an attorney about suing the city councilwoman. This is a form of bullying and intimidation by a government official and government attorney.

I want to hear what the code violations are? He hasn’t said what code violation he received! He can dance around with the race card all he wants! Pay the fine, and stop the hate!

Did you miss the part where there are other restaurants and bars in the same area but they're white-owned. The code violation was not having a permit on Cinco de Mayo even though the councilwoman in the video approved their permit request. The city lost their case. Hence, NO VIOLATION

    I had the same experience in Tampa Florida. I had a restaurant that I had a five year lease was called historical Ybor city. The owner that I had the lease with did not like that I had a stage playing black mostly jazz music in my restaurant which I was paying $14,000 a month in rent. So they all got together and close me down after I invested over $250,000 in the restaurant. Darryl Shaw a South African did not want me to have cultural music in my restaurant. He got together with the city council, and shut me down. So I totally understand what these people do they steal your money they allow you to build and develop the structural restaurant and then they take it back. It’s horrible. I’m still affected by the nightmare it happened in 2021 during Covid. When they shut you down, they shut in 35 employee 35 mothers and father that need to take care of their children, it’s horrible that’s what they do. However, right across the street from my restaurant with a Greek restaurant, doing their cultural music and having belly dancers dance at their restaurant what hypocrites. The name of my restaurant was Daddio’s patio The restaurant was doing business doing Covid generating over $1 million a quarter. These are the nightmare stories that Black people have to go through.

    This isn’t a symptom of when you choose not to vote. It’s a bigger issue historically when local politicians have been using laws to disenfranchise Black people for decades since desegregation. We have to have politicians who understand this history and start creating policies to balance out the playing field. If we don’t choose politicians that proactively create policies to uplift Black people it will just be another situation in another community.

    If I’m not mistaken, I believe the owners of the Turkey Leg Hut were dealing with similar issues. What’s crazy about the TLH situation was that the neighborhood is predominantly black, but was being gentrified at the time. There are so many similar situations like this throughout the country. We’re more likely to get pushback from others especially if we have a successful business. There are many situations involving blacks also having businesses and property stolen from them due to being undermined by local officials. I’m so sick and tired of us having to fight this fight. I truly believe that they never want to see us prosper like other minority groups. Our history in this country is proof of this notion. I can see why many blacks are now moving out of the US. I watched a documentary years ago featuring several black folks that advocated moving out of the US for their social and economic wellbeing. The Tulsa Race Riots and many tragedies like it, should remind us that this country will never truly allow us to be successful as a collective like other minority groups. That’s keeping it real.🤔

      That’s funny, Louisiana is a republic state, but Baton Rouge has a democratic black governor. So you would be voting against yourself! Right now is a bad time for folks to vote democrat! Your rights will be demolished! We all have been fooled by Biden and even though Louisiana isn’t invaded with illegals, it’s coming!

      It's going great? So how is it on planet ZEN? Progressive Policies for criminal justice. The average Black Americans don't commit crimes. But Black American are 56% of "Hate Crime" victims. Asians are 3% of "Hate Crimes victims" Yet Biden and the Democrats wrote a HATE CRIME BILL for Asians! Where is the HATE CRIME BILL for Black Americans? Just like illegal immigrants Black Americans must eat, work, pay our mortgage or rent, and educate our children. It's Democrats who seem to working hard to suppress Black American survival. Whether Black Americans stay home or go to the poles, democrats are out! When you economic disadvantage your core voting base for millions of Illegal groups clearly you don't want to continue to hold office any longer. So we are going to give democrats what they asked for, a ONE WAY TICKET HOME! Did the Illegal Immigrants from Latin and Central America, Asia, Africa, and the Caribbean, the Middle East, and Europe wait, and continue to follow up and wait for change? NO! It's our MONEY the DEMOCRATS are giving them? We're not waiting either! The people who walked over the borders, pay no taxes and are among some of the biggest criminals from the top 10 crime countries in the world. You played yourself when you came here with this 1960's political hustle! We are not going to pay to support Millions of LOSERS who won't fight in their own countries while our people are being ECONOMICALLY GENOCIDE to support their failed behinds! Tell the Asians and the people DEMOCRATS give the CASH, PROGRAMS, and OPPORTUNITIES, to go to the POLLS and vote for them! Opps they can't because they're illegal.

This can happen regardless of who you voted for because he is a lawyer and knows details others don't so they need lawyers to counter sue, but this is very serious because of him alone begging to get help to do this because he sees this won't be easy.
