Chris, good job on the interviews. I did share with my neighbors. Wish you had asked about immigration.
Thanks, Greg! Yeah, that would have been a good question.
Hey Greg! I spoke about immigration during this interview and have queued it up to the point where I start. I also got into guns, abortion, and a bunch of other stuff if you want to watch the whole thing. https://www.youtube.com/live/Kl9xJg7QcuE?si=YQH1mlPPUvuNGPuS&t=1036 I also made public comments about homicide prevention, women’s safety, and immigration at the commission meeting following the Laken Riley tragedy, and those are queued up here: https://www.youtube.com/live/QQsF4TdHBWk?si=qgwCGEg12TU-vjUs&t=2179 Let me know if I can answer any questions for you! Thanks again, Chris, for the informative reporting you do– it’s such a valuable service to the Athens community.
