Rev. Freddie Lee Phillips sounds off on Interior Design Board’s attempted search and seizure measures he claims are directed squarely at him.

Gov. John Bel Edwards’ appointees to the Louisiana Interior Design Board

Rev. Freddie Lee Phillips showed up 32 seconds after public comment was “closed” for the Louisiana Interior Design Board (IDB) meeting of Friday, July 21, 2017.  Accordingly, Louisiana Gov. John Bel Edwards’ appointees to that Board flatly denied him the opportunity to speak.  Accordingly, Rev. Phillips found another vacant meeting room in the facility, the East Baton Rouge Public Library, and he sounded off on the Board’s aborted initiative to implement a search and seizure policy he claims is targeted directly at him:

 


Rev. Phillips sounds off entailing the IDB’s hastily-aborted “search and seizure” initiative.


At the April 25, 2017 LALB meeting, the IDB makes it crystal clear just how much they fear Rev. Phillips by demanding that he “not approach the table.”  At the 0:36 mark of the video, one of the Board Members asks, “Where’s Ronald?”  She is referencing EBRP Deputy Ronald Landry.  Executive Director Sandy Edmonds responds:  “I don’t know where Ronald is.  I talked to him yesterday.”

 

Although Executive Director Sandy Edmonds states in the video that she “hired Deputy Landry because of Mr. Phillips attending the meeting along with Mr. Burns and his video camera,” it is apparent from her email of 6/4/10 to Burns, in which she bends over backwards to meet with Burns ALONE at headquarters (yet simultaneously told Rev. Phillips that headquarters was “closed”) that the members’ fear is Phillips, not Burns.  As he indicated he would, Rev. Phillips requested that an IDB agenda item be added to discuss the hiring of EBRP Deputy Ronald Landry. Chairman Steinmetz flatly denied Phillips’ request.

  1. Second video says it all. These people are pure, rank racists! It’s that simple, and Jindal and Edwards both should be ashamed to have them serving in any capacity in state government.

  2. I wouldn’t doubt they try to do what was done to me (which is seeing below) by Gravity Drainage District 8 of Ward 1 and Calcasieu Parish Police Jury that did not want the public to know the true causes of flooding (which has become an immediate threat to life here in Louisiana) similar circumstances to what has gone on in Flint.

  3. Unreal! 2nd video shows them saying he is not a threat on August 11. 39 days later on September 19 they ask him four times if he’s carrying a weapon!! Who the hell hires a sheriff deputy when they don’t feel threatened?

    The black community needs to find another pony for 2019. Edwards is a backwoods country hick from a tiny racist Louisiana town. His appointees above show he is no friend to the black comunity.

  4. MY GOD, MY GOD, IT JUST IS NOT SUPPOSE TO BE.LIKE THIS. I HAVE TO KEEP THE FAITH AND BELIVE WHAT MARTIN LUTHER KING SAID ” THERE WILL BE A DAY WHEN PEOPLE ARE NOT JUDGE BY THE COLOR OF THEIR SKIN. A DAY WHEN ALL CHILDREN WILL BE ABLE YO PLAY TOGETHER WITH NO HATRED IN THEIR HEART.. A DAY WHEN ALL NATIONALITY WILL COME TOGETHER AS ONE. THAT DAY IS COMING!!!KEEP THE FAITH. WE HAVE A NEW GENERATION AND WE HAVE TO STAND IN THE GAP. I WILL BE PRAYING FOR ALL..

  5. We need more public servants like Phillips. Oh, that’s right! Honor Code ousted him after only 15 days. No wonder. Too afraid he would expose Bel’s corruption like he’s exposing his racism right here!

  6. All they worried about is stuffing they faces with food and that one at end on the right been doing plenty stuffing. We having to pay for that food I guess.

    1. Yep. One show up a minute late and the head woman say food not there and she ain’t missed nothing. He can’t speak cause he 32 seconds late but she show up same time and sit down to stuff her face.

  7. What I really want to say would get deleted for profanity so suffice to say these women are a bunch of _______________ ____ _________. Anyone can fill in the blanks as they wish. My words would form the acronym WABs.

  8. Looks like video from the 1950s to me. These women act like they never heard of the civil rights movement but look old enough to have been in their 20s for it. Next, they going to order him to be in another room and give him a microphone to address them outside their presence.
