💙💙
Damn straight 😢
I'AIN GOT NO TAIL, GIRRRL!" will forever live rent free in my head 😂Rest peacefully, Mr. Mays. 🙏🏾
😂😂😂😂😂😂
You are missed by so many people. REST LOVE condolences to your family with love
🤣🤣🤣🤣
What did he die of ?
There's plenty of room for it to be the only tenant
All his fans are ghetto and empty headed
Damn! Now that's a shock! Mr. Mays was an internet sensation! Known for his passion for Flint. Flint, yall had a real one! ❤ RIP Eric Mays! You left a great legacy 👊🏽💥🙏🏽🕊
How am i missing this man i never met? What a loss for all of us
A man for the people . We need more men like him. RIP
It's over sorry
His “colleagues” are speaking well of him now but voted to send the man to jail while he was alive.
Deep conversation with a black neighbor 40+ years ago, we were both about 16. Me: "So if it's a matter of black/white and right/wrong, which way do you go?". "Black, definitely black", she replied. Carry on.....
Because he acted up when he was alive and needed to be sent to jail
Your statement proves you're black and don't know what the hell you're talking about
Show us a single meeting where they voted to send him to jail
That idiot went to jail because he refused to leave after being removed from the meeting which is procedure
Black people don't understand rules, order or procedure
Don't act like mays didn't do or say nasty shit to these people while he was alive
Death doesn't make him an angel or make his wrongs forgotten
Feel like I lost an uncle. Fly high king
Oh he definitely our uncle.🙏🏾🙌🏾
I feel the same way
Absolutely. He felt like a relative to those of his people who didn’t even reside in flint Michigan.
❤️🙏🏾
@@AmberColeman-gq1wn .....across the 🌍
He was definitely referred to as Unc without even meeting him.
This hurt me. Not gonna lie. I’m not even from Michigan but I loved watching his videos. Prayers for the family 💐
His videos?
You were clearly dialed in for his bullshit and drama
Not to be educated in government
I shed some tears… not even gonna lie! Rest up Mays… #FOREVERFLINT!!!
Shedding tears now. They hated him cause he spoke truth and stood for the people. Now them corrupt demons are free to do what he protested against.
The OG was definitely offed. He ruffled feathers locally, he went viral and became an overnight sensation. The powers that be been hating on him and wanted him silenced.
Black people in Flint better wake tf up and look into what really happened to the elder. Don’t let them get away with this.
Offer HoW??? THE MAN WAS IN HIS 70s CMON
@@alphaomerta9477do you realize 70 is not old?
But, coming from someone with that mindset, you’ll be dead by 45- 50… only because your ignorance to what’s going on in the world.. eat better ..
Bruh be for real
@@alphaomerta9477he was 65
they been willing to kill their whole population slowly for years with the water but people think clipping a suspended city council member is too far fetched? be fr people
He was definitely an icon. He will be missed by many. May he RIP
Oh hell no...not Quincy making statements. You hated him, keep the same energy Quincy you had the last time you saw him when you illegally removed him from his seat for 90 days.
I definitely approve this message!! Cause Councilman Mays and Quincy clearly had issues so why try to speak positive now.
Because there is a camera in there faces
So spew some BS to make y'all self look good
Quincy Murphy needs to shut his DAMN 👄
Well said 👏
I know,this hypocritical mothaf*cka. They're probably happy he passed. R.I.P, Councilman Eric Mays 🙏
We need millions of Eric Mays in every political office in America.
💯💯
Amen!!!!!!!
Such a powerful voice for the voiceless and very entertaining 😅 He'll surely be missed 🙏🏾🕊️
Quincy Murphy should have not said nothing.
Not a time to air out bitterness. This is a time of moaning.
@@user-tb1kp1uo2hstill time to fix this
@@user-tb1kp1uo2h That's exactly what Quincy did. He got in front of that camera and gave fake sympathy instead of just being quiet.
@@GeorgiaWhisper I thought Quincy was very mature about it. I actually had respect for him because he spoke like that about Mr. Mays. Sometimes its about actions, and his action is what he did when someone passes, saying positive things and showing respect.
Take your own advice
Rest easy Mr Mays you was a real one 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Quincy you can keep that ,right now you and ladell and Candice are hated 🤬🤬🤬
I agree with you 100% ...Quincy is up here now being fake af!! We all know that you and yours friends like Ledel hated that man..go somewhere and find some makeup 💄 to cover those white spots..
Please! In honor of a great man, Mr Mays love everyone,even his enemies. And I believe they loved him inspite of their difference's.
@user-tb1kp1uo2h I have to disagree because quincy and ladell made a mission to destroy him. So every action have consequences so everyone needs space and time, because they could have went at it differently. Listen to attorney Kim and others they didn't.
No there not
@ronaldpreville1053 the reality is they never thought that Mr Mays would pass away, they sold out to impress people who would never respect them, yeah they are hated , this is something that they brought on themselves
One of Greatest Councilmen in American History!
I am going to miss him. I probably won't watch the meetings anymore. I watched because of Eric Mays. He was a true stateman. Condolences to his family.
We know his haters on the council and community are rejoicing. But we all know Mr Mays was a people person and dedicated to the community he served... He's definitely an old school representative bar none. RIP.
Haters?
Prove your claim that they hated him
They didn't hate him, they hated his bad maniac like behavior!!!!
@@j.rewing635 I think you're to incompetent to discuss the issue based on your reply...
@hmalone9951
Well fortunately your thoughts are just one of many stupid posted opinions
Who cares what you think
@@j.rewing635 You and probably your mother care. Silly child... Stop commenting. I told your silly ass you weren't competent for this discussion.... Pathetic weasel...
@@hmalone9951
That lowlife is not worthy of a reply. Might just be LIEdel, Queency, crudy Judy, Muskrat or EVIL WORTHLESS! Either one of them would be so low & dirty as to disparage a dead colleague with NO respect or regards for his loved ones and community. Can you mute them?🤮
After what happened with that Flint water; if nobody stood up like him after that; it would have been a Crime! Some injustices can’t be fought sitting down. He Took a Stand!
Thank you for your service and hard work. RIP Mr. Councilman Mays. 🙏🏿
I do not live in Michigan yet I am saddened by the loss of Mr. Eric Mays. 😢 Via internet I have watched many Flint city council meetings.
Quincy Murphy ... Sir, please Shut Your Mouth!!!! 🤬🤬🤬
My condolences to the city of #Flint from Tucson🌵Arizona 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Exactly 💯 percent! Your comments are spot on. Rest in power, Eric Mays! Ol' hypocrites gonna be out here trying to glean every ounce of respect they can off of Mr. Mays' shine. Won't work! We all saw you and heard your pure NASTY gutter FILTH on that Council. RIP Eric Mays!🕊️💐💔🕊️
I live in Miami, Fl. And ive been watching The City of Flint meetings with Councilman Mays for Years on RUclips. Ever since the water crisis in Flint. Mr. Mays is known nationally and has appeared on several platforms A very passionate and outspoken official that tells the truth. He will be missed. Thank you for your services Councilmen Mays.
He tells his truth, not the truth. Big difference
Easy to control the narrative when you talk about people in their absence
Condolences to the family of Eric Mays, he was truly a wonderful man that loved his community. I live in Savannah, GA, but Eric Mays was my favorite councilman! RIP
A true man of the people! Rest well, sir🙏🏾
He was such a handsome, well put together , strong man. I know his family was hurting having to put such a strong force to rest.
RIP Councilman Mays. Job well done.❤
He Cared about The People of Flint 🙏❤️For Mr Eric Mays Family
My Condolences Handsome. He really cared and fought about Flint. Who will fight for Flint as hard as Eric Mays.
Great question. Just remember Mays closing words .Proverb 3 5-6. The Father doesn't take away without replacing. Be patience and watch him work. Mays served his time and the Father decided to bring him home. A new voice is coming. Trust in our Father and RIP my brother Eric 🙏.
Someone is coming… could be a black man or black woman. I just hope that the black community doesn’t immediately try to turn the black female away.
Black peoples hate for black women is ruthless.
@@AmberColeman-gq1wn Question for you. I know you are entitled to your opinion ( as we all are) but please provide me a little clarification regarding your statement. I think the fact that Ms Burns, JWC, Canadice, and even Ladell are on the council currently. The black community is open to accepting the black woman in a leadership role. Flint council in the past, had Ms.Galloway and Ms. Poplar ladies that Mays always reference. So if you don't mind, provide a little clarity on your statement. I look forward to your comments 🙏.
He didn't fight for flint
He just talked a fight
What did he really do other than call pointless meeting after meeting just to talk off topic about bullshit?
@AmberColeman-gq1wn
That's because most black females are not likable people
RIP.....From Kansas City. Missouri ❤
Damn he was the epitome of a last of a dying breed who keeps it real and speak wit mad passion ❤ rest up u will be truly missed
I would watch him all night! I’m going to miss him! RIP MR.MAYS
SOMETHING DOESN'T ADD TF UP. PERIOD.
I agree!
Yea a 65 year old chain smoker who die of a heart attack is very suspicious.
@@tedwilliams185WHO TF GV A CAUSE OF DEATH? How do u know how he died & no one else does. SHUT TF UP
@@tedwilliams185 Your mother.
@tedwilliams185 is that what happened or are you just being stupid
Damn another outstanding man gone😢Rest with Love Mr Eric Mays this is truly a shock
RIP … from Bossier City Louisiana
Get your rest Mr. Mays, you will truly be missed💔🕊️😢. From Bessemer, Alabama
My heart is just hurt. Whew. Mr. May's was unmatched!
I Cannot believe no way Mr Eric Mays is dead....sounds fishy
Condolences to the May's Family, 1st Ward and the City of Flint. A fan in South Florida.
POINT OF ORDER!❤🕊🙏
RIP Mr. Mays!
Rest in peace…from Mobile, AL 🙏🏽♥️
They all liars they didn't like him.
Don't act like he loved them
Don't act like if one of them died first, he wouldn't be doing the same thing
Don't act like they didn't have valid reasons not to like him
He attacks them, twist the narrative, lie then claims he's just reacting to being attacked
Anybody other than black people can clearly see he was the problem
Mays was like that long before this council ever got there
@j.rewing635 I'm not black and I'm on mays side
@@j.rewing635yeah I bet mays didn't love them because there corrupted
@@REALgooon
So what?
That changes nothing about him and says a lot about you.
@REALgooon
Mays is a 2 time felon
He pawned city property twice
He had multiple misdemeanor convictions
He was currently under investigation into how he was paying the city back in court fees because of all his bogus lawsuits he filed against the city and the council
But he hated other people for being corrupt?
You may not be black, but your way of thinking says you were raised in their broken society
Mays accused everyone around him that he didn't like of being corrupt and never produced any evidence to back it up
Everything against him was documented
Because of the group you identify with, I'm sure Mays just saying whatever he wanted and never proving any of it, was good enough for you just because he was popular for being the king clown on a council
And by the way, just saying you're not black in a comment section means nothing without proof
RIP 👑 from Europe 🇳🇱
I am so sorry to hear about eric mays. One of his biggest fans. My prayers go out to erics family.
I don’t even live there but I always pay attention to Mays. AK Cole has a channel that’s pretty much dedicated to him and his meetings. I feel 65 is just too young these days especially for an active person in the community. They said he was suspended for 90 days (a whole season) because of some conduct issues in city council and he was upset about it (I would be too.) I hope more information comes out because this man deserves it.
YES, a despicable scheme plotted by LIEdel Lewis, Queency Murphy, crudy Judy, Candace Muskrat and EVIL WORTHLESS. There quite possibly could've been more plotters, but these are the ones who sit on the Council and always voted against him.
If you have a chance watch that video of the meeting in which they voted to suspend Mr. Mays for 90 days. Angry because he spoke out and voted against THEIR corrupt schemes. Watch the video until the very end, then watch how LIEdel Lewis, crudy Judy, Attny Kim and Candace Muskrat congratulated themselves for unfairly suspending Eric Mays. You must see THEM celebrating their dirty, disorderly, ploy during that unlawful meeting. Appalling! It ain't over yet! Let's just wait and pay our respects to Mr. Mays and his family for now.
🕊️💔🕊️💐🕊️
I will Definitely miss that Voice of a Warrior RIP Sir.Peace

I cried all day yesterday. He will surely be miss.💔

Always.. always wish we had a Mr. Mays running our staff meeting so this could get done.

For the city of Flint my deepest deepest condolences. Much love from Sacramento CA 😢❣️

Here we go 🙄
He was also my voice even though I live in California. Rest in peace shining Prince!
COUNCILMAN MAYES WAS A TRUE ADVOCATE FOR FLINT MICHIGAN RESIDENTS. HE WAS ENTERTAINING TO WATCH BUT WHEN YOU REALLY FOCUSED ON WHAT HE WAS SAYING...HE WAS DROPPING PURE GEMS OF INFORMATION. SO SAD OF HIS PASSING. NO ONE CAN REPLACE HIM IN FLINT MICHIGAN.
Wow! The people of flint have lost a powerful voice. He stood up for the less fortunate.
Am I the only one that thinks they should investigate this??
A Real Defender of rights, responsible and Respect. Blessings to all you did Mr. Mays now is Your time to rest.😢❤❤❤❤
We need autopsy report!
The definition of a " man" in every sense of the word
Not even from Michigan but RIP to this strong voiced leader!
U earned your wings sir....rest easy
Murphy could have kept his comments. Just my opinion 🤔!
Yep
Sure could have! He was against Mays even before he was a council member.Quincy only ran for the seat to oppose Mays and side with the 5 in my opinion.
@@SamAugust Totally agree!!!
@@SamAugust Totally agree 👍
So true!
Omg! RIP Eric Mays 🙏🏽🙏🏽
PRAYERS TO THE FAMILY AND THE WORLD 🌎

RIHP!! Mr.Mays...condolences to his family!!Just know whats done in the dark will come to the light!!FLY HIGH..😢😢
Thoughts and prayers and sincere condolences goes out to the Man that held his own Councilman Eric Mayes. A stalwart of a councilman who stood for what was just what was right an advocate of the 1st Ward constituents. He was a fighter for those who couldn't fight for themselves. Flint will not be the same without Councilmember Mayes he stood for the less fortunate and he fought for justice. I'mnot from Flint but I followed him on the News and RUclips he made my day.😊 He will surely be missed. Prayers to the family in the transition of Councilmember and Brother Eric Mayes. Sleep on take your rest you fought the fight kept the faith and you truly finished the course!
Eric Mays left his mark! A true warrior for the people! He will be missed💔
And Quincy needs to be quiet! The way he treated that man, just hush!
right
May the Most High give his family & friends comfort. Im a TN gal but this man was a SOLDIER and stood for his people. He will be missed.
RIP Counselor Mays I been watching u fight for ur community all the way from Baltimore 🙏🏽
I AM SO SAD!! REST ON SWEET UNCLE MR MAYS!!
Sleep peacefully king!!
I’m not even from his city but that man has inspired me I loved watching his videos
R.I.P😢😢😢😢from Charlotte NC
Councilman Eric Mays was a fighter…he fought for the role of Flint, tooth and nail…I really wish we had someone in Baltimore with his tenacity and fierceness…for those Council people who are speaking in Mr. Mays’ favor, and we’re always opposed to him, remember to give a person their flowers while they can smell them, Mr. Murphy!!!!!!!
Point of order! RIP GREAT MAN😢
RIP Eric Mays. 🌹🌹🌹 There will never be another.
I wish he was here to run for POTUS in 2024. He will be sorely missed. Rest in power.
