A new video has surfaced showing Mayor Rob Ford acting wildly and belligerent and using threatening words including "kill" and "murder" with reference to an unidentified person.
The video was this week being shopped around by someone looking to make thousands of dollars. The Toronto Sun discussed the video with the vendor but did not purchase it or enter into negotiations.
The anonymous person sent the Toronto Sun two short clips from the video which appear to show the mayor impaired and in an apparent rage and in an inebriated state.
"I need f---ing 10 minutes to make sure he's dead," Ford is heard saying on the clip sent to the Sun.

But this time I have a pretty solid feeling this tape is real, it will be released, and someone will have been dead.

(32,704 posts)I take it back. He's drunk or high and it sounds like he's saying he wants to challenge someone to an uninterrupted street fight? Sounds like macho bluster that he can't back up, but he still needs to resign.

They reportedly include:
"I'm going to kill that f..ing guy. I'm telling you it's first-degree murder ... He dies or I die, brother."
"When he's down, I'll rip his f..ing throat out" and "I'll poke his eyes out" and "I'll make sure that motherf....'s dead."
"No one is" going to "f... around with me" and when it comes to he and his "brothers . . don't tell me we're liars."
A source close to the mayor confirmed it is Ford in the video and that it "looks a lot worse than it really is" since "he sometimes goes off on tangents" and a few minutes later everything is fine.

(44,228 posts)Sounds like he's talking about an MMA fight?
Gonna go check to see if anything a charity fight was ever being considered.
Edit: same video as the youtube one posted upthread.

(44,228 posts)unfortunately 'someone who called Ford and brothers liars' only narrows it down to most of Southwestern Ontario.
