He knew he was going to lose this particular vote. Full stop. He lost this vote before it will be conducted. He is leaving a caveat of *legally entitled.* He’s done everything he can to prevent the release. And he still will. It’s an obvious lie for him to say he doesn’t care.

I wanted to share probably the most important sermon I’ve given and it’s while I’m being arrested. It’s torture pure and simple what happens at #Broadview. I’m ok, though I was thrown to the ground and choked with my pectoral cross. A review of the video shows I was peaceful - did I deserve this?
