You gotta turn you, you gotta turn to turn them out. Turn you haven't got to turn them out. Then turn the water the water. Come come on your back, I shall will. Oh, good morning, everybody. You are listening to the voice, Come on now, dig me one and only. Steve Harvey Man got a radio show. What God doing, y'all? Huh, what are he doing? What are you doing in your life? He's doing something, He moving, he working. Don't lose your patience though, so I did that before. Don't lose your patience. Don't don't. Don't get so sick of waiting that you take matters into your own hands. Don't do that. Boy, you're blowing it. Listen to me. You're listening to somebody who's done it that way. I had a dream, I had a vision. I had some hope, I had some faith, I had some aspirations. But I got a little impatient waiting on it. So I tried a couple other things move it along. But I can't tell you how I messed it up. Then I messed it up. Then, because God gave me the power of decision, what I had to do was then after I took matters into my own hand, messed it up. Now, guess what, He still got something from me. But now I gotta fix all the mistakes. Now I gotta straighten them out. I gotta I gotta suffer some consequences. I gotta pay for my transgressions. All of that, All of that, it's gotta go down. You can't do something wrong and not pay for it. It's you call it, calma, call it whatever you wanna call it. Every action has an equal and opposite reaction every action. If it just stays sunny all the time, you might think it's cool, but there's gonna be a reaction to it. Ain't no dark, ain't no shade, ain't no break, ain't no rain. Gonna be hard if it's just sunny all the time, vice versa. So you need you need the opposite. You need the darkness so you can get your break from that sun. You need to rain so you can nourish the roots so that sun it can soak up the sun and get the benefit of the sun. If you don't get the opposite, you got a problem, man. And it happens throughout nature, it happens throughout your life. Don't think that you can do wrong and not have to pay for that. Do you think this is man? We think, man, because we'd have made a decision that we think it is best for us, and no matter how it to affect nobody else, we got the right to make that call. No, you don't. Whoever is telling you that, whoever's misguiding you into the gang life, telling you, yeah, man, you need to be this a way to be down with us. I tell you what, Get yourself stuck on chuck with that gang. See how many of them be there for you. Oh, they'll go around the corner with you and starts shooting. But okay, when it's time to do some time and they can lessen their centers, you're gonna get that time. They're gonna point their finger dead at you. I watched for eight hours all the time, man, I watch Lock Up Raw all the time, all the time, man, all the time. Ain't no real cold dudes out there just holding to the mantra and sticking to it. Even the mob turns stateside. Ever, Adnce go fed all that. Now we are in the honor hood. We didn't created this ignorant mess called no snitching. With that hignorant mess, you don't even understand. No snitching was created by criminals as a code of honor. If you do dirt and you get busted doing the dirt, don't bring my name up if I was with you. That's a code of honor amongst the thieves. Now, so many code of honor thieves that then came out of prison. They ain't got no honor. They haven't bought that stuff back to the street. Now, that's all in the neighborhood. No snitching, No snitching, You got to be crazy. That's for people who disobey the law. That's who people have made a code of honor amongst themselves as thieves. Hey, man, if you get busted, don't drag me down. What you just do your time. Oh man, you can't bring that stuff out here to me. I'm a law biden citizen dog. I'm trying to live right over here, man. I don't want to crack house up street from my mama's house. I'm trying to do right out here. Man, you can't do wrong and expect wrong not to come to you. You got to make a decision every day to do right. God ain't got no protection you on dirt. You got what you got coming. You made a decision. You go down there to get some you might got get got See, we got to come on. I'm talking to so many men out here right now. I should have said that didn't mean getting, but a conversation kind of got away from me. I was going to talk to you about something else this morning, but did just only man, because our communities. Man, it's just going to the pot man, because it ain't nobody can about nobody else. Don't nobody care when they see that young dude over that doing wrong. Look at them foods over that man, Go over there and talk to one of them. Pull them to the side. Man, you might not be able to approach the group, but you can approach an individual. Come in, young man. Let me talk to you. I saw you the other day. Man, you look like you got something going on in your life. What's happening with you? Let me talk to you, man, Let me share something I learned. I was doing what you was doing. You know, it's like Tommy did a prank phone call one time as a limo driver, and the dude the prank was he called this limo company to add that's this limo driver to take him to this location late at night. And the limo driver got a young business he going, yeah, okay, I got you. I don't normally work like that. But how long you need it? He's say, for just about an hour? He said, well, I'm gonna have to charge you for the full three though, because a three hour minimum. Tommy told him, now, I just need it for one hours. He said, okay, I'll give you a break, young man. You're trying to do something. Where you want to go? He gave the address. The man stopped writing. He said, that's a bank. He said yeah. He said, you want to go to the bank at twelve thirty at night. He say yeah, and I'm gonna be in for a few minutes. And when I come out that bank, I need for you to flow it that to dude with the limo. He stopped writing. He said, ho, hold on, hold on, man, you want me to take you to a bank twelve thirty at night. You're gonna be in there for a few minutes and you're gonna come out and you want me to float it. He said, sir, I don't do stuff like that. He said, you got the wrong company. He said, what made you call him? He said, hey, man, don't worry about that. You a limo come to you just dry. He stopped and took the time out. He said, young man, let me tell you something. He said, I've been down before, I've been locked up before. It ain't pretty. He said, that's what's wrong with you young people to day. Instead of going to get a job, trying to work your way, you're always looking for some fast money. He's I'm gonna tell you what I already know. Don't go down they're messing with them people's money like that because they love that money where more than they love you, and they're gonna do something to you down now. Now, you stop this foolishness. And I'm not caring you nowhere, but I'm gonna take a little bit of time out to tell you something. Don't go down here with messing with these people's money, because it ain't gonna go good. They're gonna take care of their business where they come to that money. Tommy kept insisting to this man to pick him up in the limit. It was a playing phone call. But the point I'm making is the man took out time. He could just hung the phone up. But you know what he's said, he's a hold up young man. Let me hip you to something. Because the brother had been locked up before. He said, no, no, no no, I see I've done that when I was young. Now I almost stopping. I'm gonna take some moment out to tell you. I'm gonna here working man trying to earn an honest living. I ain't going back down there because I don't. I don't. They make you eat what they want you to eat. You don't want the food. You gotta get up when they say get up. You gotta stay where they say stay, live with who they say live. He said, man, you don't want that, and he just tried to talk the young man out of it. You can change a young man's mind with a conversation. A conversation can change a young man's man. Most of these young men that are misguided ain't having conversations with real men. They just not having them. And it's up to us who know what manhoo it is is to start delivering the message. The problem that we have in our communities. We could solve ourselves. It didn't escalated to a point because we who are men won't stop on our corporate climb and our day to day making money and trying to ball out. We won't stop and grab some of these young soldiers and tell them the truth about manhood. That's the real deal. Okay, so I went there. I don't know where they came from. You're listening to show ladies, gentlemen, let me have your undivided attention. Steve Harvey, Morty show Man, Good Morning World. Everything's like it was before.

The white cops accepted their story filed no charges. Well, young mister Aubrey's coach has contacted me.

You're listening to Stow Well, Steve, you and Tommy have been u talking to some of our listeners. You got a chance to do that while we're in quarantine, and Steve, you talk to a young lady named Stephanie. Let's check it out. Hello Stephanie, H Steve, how are you girl? I mean quarantine? Also, you're looking out the window jets like you. I feel you. I'm looking out the window too, So welso you mind, Stephanie. So my question was I tend to be a planner, and so I just graduated college, the first of my family, and I'm just trying to figure things out. I wanted to know what your advice would be for someone just trying to figure out things so has a hard time giving up control. But at the same time, how you go Well, first of all, congratulations, first warning your family to go to school to college. Just big. Here's a deal. If I had known this when I was younger, I would save myself a lot of pain because the exact same thing you're talking about describes me exactly because I'm such a planner. But I wanted to try to control the situation too. And when once you try to control tomorrow, you're going to be forever frustrated because you cannot control tomorrow. That is not a living soul on this planet Earth never has been that control what happens in the future. So you can have gold for the future, Stephanie, but you cannot put the burden of trying to control it because you're going to be frustrated. You can't control tomorrow. You know tomorrow is supposed to be a thunderstorm tomorrow, so you get ready for the thunderstorm. But the weather man didn't tell you a tornado was coming. See, it's always something and so as a planner here that's what I'll suggest that you do. I take all those dreams and visions and all my plans and hopes and aspirations, and I take them to God, and I ask God to line them up with his plan for me. Not an average person don't want to do that because they always thank God's plans. They're gonna go down to church and serve the Lord and be down that church five days a week. That ain't God's plan for everybody. That ain't his plan for me. He turned me into a global citizen. I can't go to church at the same place every day some people can. So take your plans and aspirations and give it to God and ask God to line your plans up with his plans for you. You did. That's my advice. Keep dreaming. If you don't, never stop dreaming. You got big dog. Go ahead, man. We appreciate you listening. Stephanie, she was from Atlanta. Thank you so much for listening. We appreciate it.

Buckle up and hold on tight. We got it for you here. It is the Strawberry Letter. It is a set City thank you. Subject my neighbor's daughter. Dear Stephen Shirley. I'm a fifty two year old widower. I lost my wife four years ago and I've recently started dating again. I live in a great neighborhood and my neighbors have been very supportive while I'm adjusting to being singles. I'm really cool with one of my college buddies that lives around the corner from me. He has grown kids and he and his wife own a gas station. They are a central workers, so they aren't at home a lot. He had mentioned that their daughter is staying with them during the pandemic, and I happened to run into her one day while I was out jogging. I hadn't seen her in years, so I had no idea who she was. We greeted each other and that was it. The next day I went jogging again, hoping to run into her. Well, I did, and when I saw her, she said she was glad to see me again too. I told her I was a widower, and she told me that she was back in town for a month or two. She's thirty and gorgeous, and she likes to jog and biker shorts so that all of her assets are always out. I never had such an awesome and instant physical attraction to a woman. It blew my mind. I'm really starting to develop feelings for her, and we've spent almost every afternoon together. Now I'm wondering if it's time to come clean and stop hiding our relationship from her parents. It's a tricky situation, but I didn't know this girl when she was growing up, and I'm not really that close to her parents. We would love to have their blessings before we're intimate. She is grown, but still terrified of what her parents will do and say. How should I approach this subject? Please advise Wow, First of all, sorry for your loss, and yeah, I gotta tell you this is a big problem. I think this is a problem. You may not think so right now, because the heart loves what it loves and wants what it wants and all of that. But didn't you say this was your college buddy's daughter. I mean, you said also that she's thirty and grown and all of that. But just think about it. I mean, would you be so cool and and everything if your college buddy that you're so cool with was doing your daughter. I mean, just put yourself in his position once he finds out. And what about this? You put this in the letter. In the beginning of the letter, you said you guys were cool. You know, he lives around the corner, he and his wife. They have a business, their essential workers in their gas station. You know, you said all of that. But by the end of the letter, now you're saying you're not really that close to her parents and you didn't know her growing up. But is that really true? I mean, I think you you guys, meaning of course you and her parents are pretty tight, and you're now you're just trying to, you know, say you're not that close so you can justify your feelings for their daughter, and you know the fact that you're trying to get with her, So you're kind of changing up a little bit because you want to get with the daughter because she wears biker shorts and all her assets are always out and all that. You know what, I think you're gonna have to leave her alone. I think you're asking for trouble in this situation. That's your friend's daughter. I don't think he's gonna be happy about you dating his daughter, and I think you need to move on. Plenty of women out there, plenty of good women. Pick someone else. Steve, y'all know that I'm not good at this type of letter, So before I say something, I want to apologize up front for anything that I might say. A disclaimer. Yeah, I'm just saying this, Carcino, just Strawberry Lett. I ain't on therapists. I ain't going to school for this, right, you know I ain't. I'm trying to help you, but if I can't, you know what you want me to do. So once I find out I can't help, yeah, I don't know what to tell you. Then I go to what I do know, which is my comedy. He it is you live in a great neighborhood. You a widderer. I lost my wife four years ago. Oh I see, oh oh see, I didn't hear that. Oh so you this lady. Okay, she already gay. Oh okay, that's oh that's different. Four years ago and I haven't started dating again. So you know you lost her four years ago? Oh wider, that means she died, okay him, I just thought like she y'all went to the mall and then you can't find her. Oh huh what I just just misread. I lost my wife four years ago, which and I didn't you know who widower part died. It wasn't quite coming up with that. You know, y'all had went to the malls and got lost and you ain't found. I don't know what it was. Yeah, four years I just stopped looking at the you know, I'm adjusting to being single, and I'm really cool with one of my college buddies. Yeah, I'm gonna quickly looking after that, because you know, especially if I'm jogging, I see somebody, fine, you know, she ain't been home in a while. Anyway. I lived round the corner from college buddy that stayed around the corner from me. He got these grown ass kids, and he and his wife on a gas station. They ain't home a lot, and he mentioned his daughter staying with them, doing the pandemic. Now, having to run into her. One day while I was out jogging. I ain't seen it in years, so I had no idea who she was. We greeted each other and that was it. Next day I went jogging, hoping to run into again. I did. I saw she was glad to see me again. I told him I was a wider, and she told me she was back in town for a month or two. She thirty and gorgeous. She likes your jog, getting Baker shorts. All her assets is all the way out now in this the pandemic, right, yeah, y'all jog and mighty close. All right, don't sound like a six foot away job to me. Hold on a minute, crime man. We'll have part two of Steve's threeponds coming up in twenty three minutes after the hour. The subject today is my neighbor's daughter, who'll get back into it right after this. You're listening to show, all right, Steve, Come on, let's recap today Strawberry letters. Subject my neighbor's daughter. Yeah. So, like I said, you know, the fifty year year old dude lost his wife somehow. I didn't quite get that in the beginning. I thought they was at a mall, that they was holding hands and she got away from him. He was in the mall getting peggy. Hegel, have you seen a little short lady with black level? And I thought this was but that was a deaf heire, not a lost I thought that she had just quit looking for after four years. Anyway, he said, I'm adjusting a single wife. Yeah, I know. I was. I really cool with one of my college buddies that stayed rounding the corner, and they got these grown kids. And then so day had sent your worked dain't home. He mentioned that daughter was staying with him doing the pandemic, and I happen to run into her one day while I was jogging. I hadn't seen her in years, so I had no idea who she was. So y'all spoke to each other and that was it. Next day, you out running and you hope that you run into it, while I did, And when I saw she said she was glad to see me again too. I told her I was a widower, and she told me she was back in town for a month or two. She is thirty, lord, gorgeous. She liked the jogging biker shouts. Oh yeah, six all out. I've never had an awesome and instant physical attraction to a woman. It blew my mind. I started developing feelings for her. We spent almost every afternoon together. Now I wonder if it's time to come clean and stop hiding our relationship from her parents. What, dude, you feel to go to your boy that you went to college with and tell him that you hadn't met his daughter and y'all hit, y'all kicking it now? He say, it's a tricky situation. But I didn't know this girl when she was growing up, and I ain't really that close to her parents. Now you don't know the dude. Yeah see see he was a real cool buddy around the corner in college. Yeah, this I asked for me. Dog you feel to get you feel? To get stumped now? And I really we would love to have their blessings before we're intimate. Okay, dog you you bro, you fifty two, You lost your wife. You ain't said if you got kids or nothing. You're gonna go to this dude and we won't say blessings.

You're gonna get taught a lesson, but there ain't gonna be no blessing. She has grown, but still terrified of what her parents will do in satan. Well it's an older man. Y'all then talked about it.

Yeah, man, we're not We're not everybody to work at that hospital, like you said, sure, the cafeterier, the damn gift shop people, many people going in there. Every day man putting their life on the line, trying to keep the place sanitizing stuff. So we got to take our hot a specially up in Detroit, man, because Detroit got hit it. Man, it's getting hit hard up there in Detroit, Man. A great job, Tommy checking in. I like that. Yeah, all right, all right. Coming up at the top of the hour, guys, what's up with COVID nineteen testing. I will talk about that right after this. You're listening to show the number of coronavirus cases in the US is topped over one million. Now, wow, that's all right. The country is trying to prepare to reopen. That's so many people. I mean, that's a devastating number. Country is trying to prepare to reopen. However, there's still issues like fear of meat shortages with meat plants closing down due to employees contracting the virus, but the President has ordered those plants to remain open under the Defense Act. Also, the airline industry is another one. It's trying to get flights in the air Again. Some airlines are not selling the middle seats and others are requiring passengers to wear masks. We already know that Georgia, Texas, Michigan, Hawaii, Oklahoma, Tennessee have started to reopen. Next these states Florida, Missouri, Alabama, Wiscontinent Kentucky are making preparations to reopen to help their economy. But what is up with the testing? All right? We keep hearing we need more testing, we need more testing to get the country back open. Well, the goal of the test is to identify people who might spread the virus or isolate or have them quarantine so they will not reinfect people. So why hasn't the FDA organized our testing? Um? You know that's a question for the ages. I guess, Um, the government is leaving it up to the states. You can say to do a lot of this. But um, if you're if you're listening, um, Steve, there is a website people can go to to find out where to get tested in their area. Yeah. I think it's a CDC. That's a Center for Disease Control dot org, dot dot gov, dot gov. I'm sorry, dot dot gov is CDC dot gov dot You can go there and they'll give you information on the one eight hundred number or how you go online to set up your appointment to go get tested. Yeah, I understand that it's a little different in each state, so you have to have the number for your state. But everybody listening you there's a way to get tested. The problem is we haven't. We're not telling our people how they can get tested, or go to CDC dot gov and find out the number and where you can register to call in and get yourself tested. Now, if you get let me just say this from what I know as a fact. If you get tested and it comes up negative, that don't mean you free to just go back to work. That means you just haven't contracted it. And whatever you've been doing has been working as far as social distancing or quarantining or staying at home or whatever, and you should continue that. It doesn't mean you're free up, you immune to it or nothing like that. So we're still going to have to practice even as these places open back up, y'all. We got to use our common sense here in terms of what's smart for us. You're still gonna have to practice social distancing. You're still gonna have to wear these masks, and you still got to stay away from highly populated areas. That's just those are the common sense thing. Now, if you test positive. You gotta get in there and get some type of service and they find out what they can do for you if they if you need to be admitted or you need to go and get quarantine and follow their instructions. I don't know what that is great information, Steve, that that is really good information. But Tommy, you ask, what's so hard about that? What's so hard about inside? Some people? It is really hard for them to stay inside. It really is. For some reason, virus or not. Some people get so worked up about this stuff that you just lose it. And I think if we had some kind of national leadership with this testing, if it was organized better, then these states can all roll out together the plan. It's just no organization. It's chaotic. But yeah, the president doesn't want to bear any responsibility for it, so he's turning it on the state twent a minute ago. He's the president. He can do what he want to do, but he trying to dodge the bullet on this one. Exactly right, exactly all right. Coming up, we'll have more of today's trending stories on the Steve Harvey Morning Show, and we'll be back at twenty minutes after the hour. Right after this you're listening to show. Well. On Monday, we told you about that reckless house party in Chicago. Remember that, with over one thousand partygoers, it was streamed live. Well. The owner of the building has been fined and cited for her disorderly conduct, and her adult son is to blame. He had the keys to the place and disarmed the alarm and through the party. Chicago's Mayor Lori Lightfoot went in on the party goers, saying that millennials are in their twenties, but they are functioning adult and we expect them to act responsibly, particularly during a pandemic. I mean absolutely, yeah. Look, millennials are not children. Millennials are supposed to be our brightest generation. They're the future. Got to act like it. Do you must around man see? And it's now. Young people are dying from this. Do you understand this? A twenty five year old just died the other day, a friend of a friend. I'm telling you, young people can die from this now. Even if you contracted and your body can handle it and your immune system is fine, what about when you take it home to your auntie and your mother and your grandmother, your daddy and you kill everybody in your house because you wants to go to the party. It ain't that serious, man, I guess to some it all up, Steve to young people without you know, being preachy, and you know we were in our twenties at one time. We get that part. But this is a little more serious. This is a pandemic yet people, you know, come on now. All right, we'll have more of the Steve Harvey Morning Show and some trending news at thirty three minutes after the hour. Right after this, you're listening to Harvey Morning Show. All right, Steve, time for part two of your quarantine life story. What's going on? So, you know, when our little girlfriends came home, I'm trying to be nice. You know, ho shit on you, you know, you know, make your girl flexing fund of girlfriends. I'm gonna go down and get your bottle of wine. I go down there. I don't know the combination to the wine seller, So I say, I don't know the combination. She come all the way down and says, she said, you don't know the combination. I said no, She says, Steve, you don't remember the combination. I don't really go in here on drink wine. They just what's the combination. Finally we get through that part of it. I get inside and I reach to get a bottle of one. She said, no, get up, go up higher, Steve. Don't get nothing down there. It's daytime, saying a special occasion, just me and my friends. So I said, okay, So I reached a little bit high. She said high and that yeah, I'm six too. Want you want me to jump for the one? And what you want me to do? And so I'm trying to figure out how I'm gonna do this here and so then she said, Steve, get a ball of Sessekaia. I'm saying, okay. Now, I don't know who Sessekaia is. So I'm reaching up down and got about six bottles. She said, Steve, that ain't Sessekaia. So I put that battle back. I reach because I'm trying to read the labels. That ain't Sessekaia. Hey damn all, this is red wine on this side over here, so all it's the same color. They're like no. So finally I pulled out sessekai you know, we go on upstairs. They open it. So I said, cool, she ups here with her friends. I'm gonna get a cigar, go out by the pool. So I get the cigar, I go out by the pool, put my ear buds in, I got my earth been winding fire. And then all of a sudden, out here it's nice down here. I'm turning around and that they was, what the hell, hih y'all down here? I came down here, took the wine upstairs for you and your damn friend, fought balconies over here. What did you down here? Somebody? This nice downhill? Now? It was nice down here when I was down here by my damn self and listening to this earth winding fire. Then her friend, what you're doing, Steve? I was quiet, you know, I couldn't say it like that. But so then nah, they down there talking. So now I say, man, will let me go upstairs and go outside. You finning go through the house with the cigar. Oh no, no, this is my head is happening right now. Okay, But see, hold up, though, shut hold up though. See this is what I have decided. What is since my life got to be like this? Since I ain't been right since March thirteenth, which is when we started the quarantine, because the show ended. Since I've been in the house since March thirteen, and I ain't been writing not a damn day since March thirteenth. Then at least you can contribute to the income factor. And your ass is fitting to be in this show. As a joke, I'm local now. Everybody don't like that. Guess what put that out? That will just be something else can go into call him with Steve ass Ain't right, No, coming up our last break of the day, the last breakas day you're thinking, and then we'll have some closing remarks. You'll get it together by forty nine minutes after right after this you're listening show all right here we are, last break of the day. It's been a good day when yeah, yeah, very informative. Yep, we did um yeah, y'all. You know listen, let me say this in my close remarks. It's a couple of things I want to touch on. First of all, as they reopen this country as uh hey uh, as as we close, as I do my clothing today, I want to just touch on a couple of subjects, you know, as this country slowly reopens, and it is doing that because now a number of states are talking about slowly opening to get the economy back moving again. The economy is important, but what's wrong with this country is the economy is the most important thing to this country. It is not the health and welfare of the people. And that is quite obvious from the top administration in this country inside of that White House. We still have not heard a definitive plan nationwide to curb this except stay home. Well, now they're saying don't stay home when they still don't have enough people tested. There's one million cases of this in the United States and we have no idea how many people have it. These are just certified cases COVID nineteen a million, and we still haven't tested ten percent of the population. We have not tested thirty five million people. We have it, but it's a million people got it. And so we're dealing with the government man who's so concerned with getting the account back open that they they're willing to risk lives to get it back going again. And right now it's just the numbers game. See if you don't think that government has set down and said, well, if it gets really bad, how many could we lose? It's like it's like when they go to war, and before they go to war, they have projections if they make a move to do this or if they make a move to that, then when they get in those situation rooms, they come up with a tally of what they think the death told could be and that helps them decide whether they do the mission or not. They talk about how many lives we can do, how many casualties will we have. This is a real fact of war. We are at war with the invisible enemy. And if you don't think for one moment that this government has a room somewhere deciding that if we open this country back up, how many cases will we have, how many can we get into the hospitals, and how many of those are we losing. They're looking at the percentage of people that they're losing versus the number of cases that they have, and that is real numbers to them, twelve percent of people that contracted, let's just say twelve percent die. Then guess what then? They know if we get this thing and it's snowballs, owners, we'll have this and we'll have these many depths, and you know what, they've decided it's worth it because they're opening the country back up, and so many people want to go back to work, and so many people need to go back to work, because I got news for you. If you think this twelve hundred dollars checker is gonna fix it for you, it ain't. And quick getting excited about something that she owes anyway, Donald Trump not sending you money. You're a taxpayer. You've paid. I've trust me. If you've been in this earth long enough, you've paid twelve hundred dollars in taxes. They're not giving you nothing. So let's stop getting excited about that now. The second part of this and also in Atlanta, that opened it up Linux Mall, one of the most popular malls in this city, which is a hotbed for some problems right now. But the problems were pale a comparison because somebody gonna go to that mall and gonna end up dead because they went to the mall to buy what y'all listen to me, Slow down a little bit, continue to practice social distancing, continue to wear your mask, continue to stay home as much as you can. We just a little bit too early. Do I want to go back? Yes. If you live in an apartment and you don't have a balcony, I feel for you. It's cooped up, But go outside. Put your mask, gonna go outside, walk to a park, walk down the street, you see people coming, walk out, stay away from each other, go for a walk through. Something is too soon. But now that leads me to the last part of it. We're in this predicament. And I'm telling you we are because we didn't jump on this thing when we should have. And had we had the proper leadership and jumped on this thing early, this thing would not be the way it is. This is the United States of America, supposedly the most powerful and richest country in the nation in the world. The reason we're not solving this problem with these ppe items and these masks and these shields and these gowns and these coverings and all this here is because people have to make money. They're not voluntarily giving this stuff away over here. Somebody got it. They're making money. That are other countries, man, who have plenty of supplies. How America don't, and America saying they short America, not short. We are America. Man. Come on, let's stop this. We are being led down a dog path by some bad leadership here. Man. It's not fair what's happening to us. And all of our leaders have to be held accountable for this, all of them. And it don't just stop with that president. If you agree with him, and you a governor, you have to be held accountable. If you're a mayor, you have to be held accountable. We got to get out and vote man, because of you. You don't put a stop to this foolishness right here that's been going on for four years. It's something wrong with you. Those are my clothing. Marks love to say. This is hey, y'all, have a great day, and another day and another day. And when you get to Friday is Saturday. Keep having another great day. Contests no purchase necessary, void where prohibited.
