He stood up for what believed .... Don't get confused by the method he used. His legacy is not about the method he used. It's about what he was trying to do. |
I cannot understand it. If they prayed for her before, why didn't they today? |
I don't want anyone to go out here in the city of Cincinnati or anyplace else, and claim they are representing my brother by acting violently. That's not what we're about. |
I want you to lay down your arms and I want you to say it is now in God's hands. No longer will we fight in the streets, no longer will we kill each other. |
My brother's always been a fighter, all his life. He was the closest thing I had to a father. It's hard to look at my idol lying there helplessly, and I cannot do anything but pray for him. |
Not only has Cincinnati lost a great leader, I have lost my best friend. My brother did fight a very, very valiant fight. He died with dignity. |
Our focus as a family is to make sure we are by his side day in and day out. I will not allow any politics to enter his hospital room or our thoughts as a family. |
Our focus is to look at my brother as a person and look at what he has done with his life and look and make sure we are by his side. Because the only thing that matters to us is his recovery. |
Whether you agree or disagree with my brother's politics, a crime such as this should never happen. |
