He distributed copies of an ad about an HBO Go app (application), which allows people to watch HBO from a smart phone, tablet or computer, providing they have a subscriptions to HBO and the television provider (cable or satellite). The cost of a Comcast Cable subscription is $60.99 a month. He asked why a cable television subscription is needed in order to watch an HBO app on your smart phone. He referred to Comcast's Xfinity's programming and illegal activities. From his perception, the City officials are in collusion with the cable television provider and he would stand in witness to the City Council's disrespect for their offices, rule of law, the political process in the City, the Country and for their constituents, the residents of Louisville.
