1
00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:03,640
Speaker 1: So the new data center movement is real, and some

2
00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:07,320
Speaker 1: people have some genuine concerns, mostly about land used, water consumption,

3
00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:10,680
Speaker 1: and energy demands. But the moment you pick up a

4
00:00:10,760 --> 00:00:15,200
Speaker 1: gun and fire it into someone's house, you've lost the

5
00:00:15,320 --> 00:00:18,200
Speaker 1: argument and then you become the story. And that is

6
00:00:18,239 --> 00:00:22,840
Speaker 1: not how democracy works. Ron Gibson's home in Indianapolis was

7
00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:26,960
Speaker 1: shot early Monday morning. Thirteen rounds were fired into his

8
00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:30,520
Speaker 1: front door. Luckily nobody was hurt. However, him and his

9
00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:32,960
Speaker 1: eight year old son were a home at the time.

10
00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:38,280
Speaker 1: Both of them escaped physical injury. And this attack happened

11
00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:43,400
Speaker 1: just days after Gibson supported rezoning that cleared the way

12
00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:48,919
Speaker 1: for a proposed Danner Center project. And you shooting at

13
00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:54,360
Speaker 1: elected officials over infrastructure policy. That's just flat out terrorism,

14
00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:55,840
Speaker 1: That's what that is.

15
00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:58,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is a terrible story. And Ron Gibson, he's

16
00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:03,480
Speaker 2: a Democrat on the Indianapolis City County Council representing District eight.

17
00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:08,480
Speaker 2: And you know, I think data centers, you know, not exclusively,

18
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:11,319
Speaker 2: have been a conservative issue, but for the most part

19
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:14,200
Speaker 2: have been kind of embraced by conservatives, and a lot

20
00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:17,360
Speaker 2: of conservatives against data centers. This is crap. This is

21
00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:19,440
Speaker 2: not what conservatives do. And if it turns out a

22
00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:22,679
Speaker 2: conservative did this trying to, you know, push a conservative

23
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:25,920
Speaker 2: message of not allowing data centers in our communities, that

24
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:28,200
Speaker 2: is a bunch of craft. This is what liberals do,

25
00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:30,920
Speaker 2: you know. Keep in mind, it's liberals like Antifa that

26
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:33,720
Speaker 2: ride in the streets and destroy property. It's liberals like

27
00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:37,680
Speaker 2: the Prohamas and pro Palestinian College protesters from a couple

28
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:40,400
Speaker 2: of years ago that destroyed property. It was the liberal

29
00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:43,000
Speaker 2: from the Trump assassination or the attempt or the Charlie

30
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:47,280
Speaker 2: Kirk assassination. Liberals are the ones that use violence to

31
00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:50,320
Speaker 2: their political ends in this country. That is not something

32
00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:54,680
Speaker 2: that conservatives do and we should have absolutely zero patients

33
00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:55,480
Speaker 2: for it whatsoever.

34
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:58,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, whatever the grievance, that's not the response, right and

35
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:01,160
Speaker 1: hopefully Indianapolis law Enforce Smith will find out who did

36
00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:06,040
Speaker 1: it and prosecute accordingly and aggressively. You can't just go

37
00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:09,639
Speaker 1: shooting up your lawmakers when you disagree. The other way

38
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:11,160
Speaker 1: to do it is to vote them out.

39
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:14,679
Speaker 2: Yeah, get involved, show up to these community meetings about

40
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:18,840
Speaker 2: these data centers. You make your voice heard, be vocal,

41
00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:22,040
Speaker 2: go it out and vote. Call your local elected officials.

42
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:25,280
Speaker 2: That's what conservatives do when we disagree with something that

43
00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:28,320
Speaker 2: our politicians do. We work within the system. We can

44
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:31,800
Speaker 2: file lawsuits and let the judicial system take its rightful

45
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:34,520
Speaker 2: place in the process. But we don't go acting out

46
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:39,120
Speaker 2: and creating violence. We certainly don't go shooting at lawmakers' homes.

47
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:41,040
Speaker 2: It has no place in what we're doing, in no

48
00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:45,520
Speaker 2: place in the conversation. Actually weakens our conversation. This actually

49
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:49,760
Speaker 2: makes the anti data center crowd look much much worse

50
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:52,720
Speaker 2: and weakens our argument to keep data centers out of

51
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:53,280
Speaker 2: our community.
