  • @janitor17 take ur hat off in the house ,wich a real man would do??? WTF??? never heard sum1 say that lol

  • @MrPat715 hes a mayor he shouldnt call the kids names no matter wut the kids did or say to him n wow he stoped 1 lil fight i dnt c him doing anything bout the shooting n killing in the city

  • smoke marijuana

  • no he is not a credit to Toledo and its citizens...how does stopping a fight make him praise worthy?!

  • actually the kid who he called fatso was not the one that was in the fight, so why he called out someone who wasnt even involved jsut an onlooker.

  • My Dad telling truth about that park - he should stay away from that place but has to please my nephew.....terrible atmosphere.

  • Blade, I agree with many others. The focus should be on the fight in the skateboard park (which could result in permanent closure by the city), not on the mayor who was trying to help squash a situation. How about using your high-dollar camera for something to help society.

    Oh, and take your hat off in the house, which a real man would do. You are 20 going on 12!

  • So some clown with a camera is now a youtube star, thanks Blade, in spite of the fact the mayor was trying to help break up a brawl. And THATS your story?  Please.

  • oooooooooooh HOT HEAT!

    i don't care for Carty AT ALL!

    Thanks for Posting!

  • Let's praise Carty. He walked the neighborhood at his own discretion without any entourage in tow - a rarity among among urban mayors. He noticed an escating fight and personally intervened - putting himself in great physical jeopardy in the process. Can you imagine Kwame or Mayor Daley personally breaking up a neighborhood fight? No way. Carty could easily have phoned police from a distance and kept walking. He chose otherwise. He's a credit to Toledo and its citizens.
