Debate highlights
I screwed up one thing at least, but I didn’t notice until after it was on YouTube. I’m pretty sure I either got permission for the all the photos or they’re public. If not, let me know and we’ll work something out.
I wish I could do more, but my first “cut” version of the audio was 22 minutes, and I don’t expect people to sit through that. It’s now 7:23, and I feel like it’s blazing through and I had to skip a lot of good stuff from Alvin Holmes.

Bravo. Well done!
Just a shame seven minutes wasn’t enough time to convey all the rediculousness of the opponents.

beer we got drink pretty good don’t it?
Comment by Loretta Nall
I usually find Alvin Holmes hysterical! And he was hysterical on HB196 too, just not in a good way. Of all the things to try and play the race card with….beer? Come on!
A few years ago Alvin was found passed out behind the wheel of his truck on the Eastern Bypass (I think that is where it was) because he had too much of something that obviously drank pretty good. Of course, the Montgomery cops just took him home as opposed to arresting him, like they would have the rest of us non-elected folks.

Outstanding job on the video, very informative and entertaining…
Comment by Stuart
I have to say that Alvin’s response of “GERMANS?!!?” was pretty much the response from those of us in the public gallery….
Comment by Jay
Outstanding job on the video. Extremely informative and hopefully enlightening to those that aren’t as open minded as most of us.
I have to wonder though…….after listening to Alvin Holmes who in their right mind would vote for that guy?
Comment by Brian
Great job on the video. I also agree, I have no idea who would vote for Mr. Holmes.
Another milestone accomplished, but we still have a ways to go yet.
Comment by Michael
Great job! I’d love to hear Alvin Holmes’ full comments just for a good laugh, any idea where I can find those?

I got the full audio from one of our members. If you send me an email I’ll give you the link. It’s on his personal server I think so I don’t want to just link to it and shoot up his bandwidth (the file is big).

This is another example of why I do not miss Alabama, what a joke! Even the lawmakers are idiots that cannot speak English or maybe I am at fault for not speaking ebonics. I think the representatives from dry counties should not get a vote or at least abstain from voting on this bill.
