Cincinnati riot Got that T-shirt

I have some amateur lousy video footage to prove it. Lol

Some of this is a little embarrassing to play. But I’m gonna do it anyway. Because I will do a lot better tomorrow night.

If you like silent movies this one’s for you. Here’s a security guard and the first person I talked to. Somehow I had the mic off but I’ll give you a rundown.

He said he’s been there all night and saw the protesters push the police down the street twice. At one point about 60 or 70 of them broke off and looted Saks fifth Avenue. He was a pretty decent guy and you could tell he was nervous he was chain-smoking. Talking to him I noticed I was nervous too. My voice was cracking and that’s happened before from a adrenaline spike.



This is some crank your head footage of Saks fifth avenue where are the guard sent me.



After that I was walking up main street. I went by myself which wasn’t a good idea. But with the exception of roving gangs .The riot was coming to an end. (I’m taking a guy that used to work for me tomorrow)



About 10 paces after I put the phone in my pocket. I walked a little more thinking the cops are there.

When I get closer I noticed it was one of those roving gangs the security guard warned me about. Not a good idea. They were all spittin mad , almost in a animal like rage.

Not the place for a old white guy all by his self. So I eased on out of there.

I would’ve felt safer inside a full scale mob then anywhere around that crew .

I knew where Tiffany’s was and I was nearby. A city full of Rioters and looters . I figured tiffany’s would be a prime target. So I decided to see how smart they were.



Turns out they were smarter than me . Nobody was home. 🤦‍♂️

This was the first guy that would talk to me. ( besides the guard ) They live downtown and before I got the camera on he told me his buddy (the fella that walked away) just about got jumped then the cops rolled up.

Then he ask me for a couple bucks. I wasn’t gonna argue with him he had superpowers or something he was standing on the wall.

This guy worked for a local television station. He wouldn’t let me tape his face either .



This has some video and audio so I don’t have to run my yap. Except the chicks with the bellies started yelling I was the po-po after their camera light hit me. So I got out of there quick before they drew attention.



This was the best interview . I talked to the cops for at least five minutes.

One said they wouldn’t talk to me unless I could tell them a joke and make them laugh. (almost a exact quote)

I was successful even though they tried not to laugh.

In the long run it didn’t matter I screwed the video up. Don’t know what I did but it looks like a Australian Benny Hill video with no music.



There you go a a very mediocre run down of the Cincinnati riot. If it kicks up again tonight I’m going earlier. I

Started the first vid( 4 secs in and raises hand ) is he armed with a 38 revolver?? A security guard? What's he guarding?

Edit:
Ok seems a mall. Ok continuing to watch.

Two places I would have looted: Bataskes Hat Shop and then Straus Tobacconist.

Get outta here! Cinnabons!

FD so these crowds are inside the mall breaking into mannequin displays? I'll keep watching.

Edit: best line so far... "Nobody wants to be on camera, I gotta find me a Communist". Lol!

It was a large office building catty corner from the Marriott. Can’t remember the name at the moment though .

a reply to: Bigburgh

Do you remember when I interviewed the communist at the Trump rally ? Lol

a reply to: AugustusMasonicus

Downtown Cincinnati I would’ve gone for the hustler shop.

If they were up in Corryville it would’ve been the cupboard .

The visual of you walking around during a riot armed with handfuls of rubber sex toys is disturbing but I’ll keep you in my thoughts nonetheless.

With my luck and my camera skills I would’ve filmed it myself . 😊

Used to have an apt down on Fourth & Plum many years ago.
Nice to see the old haunts again...Looks like the place hasn't aged well.

a reply to: IAMTAT

If you haven’t lived there in a while. You wouldn’t believe vine street now. The Restaurants and taverns have moved north of liberty .

I hope nothing happens tonight but if it does I’ll try and get up there .

Interesting note, the 2001 riots in Cincinnati were where funds came for the revitalization of over the Rhine. Which is how vine street got rebuilt .

A seed of good was planted and it sprouted for the northern part of the city .

Ok that's better, at least I'm not in Kentucky.


Holy Sh!t there really is such a place, HUSTLER

( Bigburgh get in his car somewhere in pittsburgh )

What!? Get 2 Free Large Tuna rolls with a purchase of any small Lappy Dance!😍😀😀
Tubing down the Ohio to get there is also acceptable.

Well wasn't sure what was going to go done here in The Burgh. but we usually only get small demonstrations, but they stay in one spot then go on their merry way. Not going to lie though, I pulled out Maxxine last night and got her ready just in case.
Along with a Glock22 and a Benelli 12 gauge... and popcorn.

BTW.. you got Brass Huevos for walking the streets that late.

Used to buy my cigars at Straus.
Brunch at Omni Netherland was also nice.

a reply to: Bigburgh

Kentucky is referred to as the good side of the river around here.

Yeah there’s a Hustler Hollywood in Cincinnati . But nobody was giving in there. A bunch of guys in pink wife beaters and the leather pants were protecting it.

I think they were armed with chains ?

Must of been Vontaze Burfict's previous body gaurds.

On topic: do you plan on going back out tonight if they protest again?
