15
00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:41,120

16
00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:47,720
Speaker 3: some legitimate trauma and u and some uh uh, just

17
00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:51,760
Speaker 3: like physical first, if kids don't get physical and emotional

18
00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:54,240

00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:35,480
Speaker 3: Right, dude, it's sick Halloween. It's huge Santa Monica too.

53
00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:38,600
Speaker 3: It's probably we could hire some fake children, hire some

54
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:41,840
Speaker 3: fake children, or if any of the Okop gang wants

55
00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:45,440
Speaker 3: to lend us their children us your children together, can

56
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:47,880
Speaker 3: we say we can score big this Halloween exactly.

57
00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:49,160
Speaker 4: They just have to give us all their candy.

58
00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:54,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, sorry, capitalism, kadiism.

59
00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:58,200
Speaker 1: We used to get about seven hundred to one thousand

60
00:02:58,280 --> 00:02:58,960
Speaker 1: kids a year.

61
00:02:59,200 --> 00:02:59,720
Speaker 4: That's a lot.

62
00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:01,040
Speaker 3: That's crazy amount.

63
00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:04,040
Speaker 1: I've always loved getting trick or treaters because my kids

64
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:07,160
Speaker 1: are teens now and don't trick or treat anymore lame.

65
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:13,000
Speaker 1: But in the last four years it's gotten ridiculous. There's

66
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:16,840
Speaker 1: now thousands and thousands of kids and their parents flooding

67
00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:21,560
Speaker 1: the streets. People with hay in their rigs, carrying kigs around.

68
00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:28,120
Speaker 1: Whoa hay rides has streets? Wow, damn, I didn't know

69
00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:30,960
Speaker 1: this was like that popping of a spot.

70
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:31,920
Speaker 4: This is amazing.

71
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:34,360
Speaker 3: There is a place in La called Candy Cane Lane

72
00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:40,520
Speaker 3: where everyone like really goes heavy on the on all decorations.

73
00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:43,760
Speaker 3: So it's like Christmas like so I could see like

74
00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:47,120
Speaker 3: a spot like that getting some hay rides, just busting kids,

75
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:49,680
Speaker 3: bosting kids from all around town.

76
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:53,920
Speaker 1: Trampling yards, littering candy wrappers everywhere, and the amount of

77
00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:58,080
Speaker 1: small children walking around by themselves is appalling. People from

78
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:01,880
Speaker 1: the neighboring town of thirty thousand people take their kids

79
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:03,760
Speaker 1: to my neighborhood.

80
00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:09,520
Speaker 2: Dang, whoa this is? Can we just call it a festival? Yeah,

81
00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:13,440
Speaker 2: it sounds six. I would want to go, Yo.

82
00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:16,400
Speaker 4: You got any of that sweet pixie dust? Let me

83
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:23,160
Speaker 4: God he love candy cella. The sweet tarts are so botent.

84
00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:26,479
Speaker 1: I was annoyed, but I never really did anything about

85
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:30,839
Speaker 1: it until two years ago. My daughter tripped and broke

86
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:33,359
Speaker 1: her arm. Oh that's awful. We didn't think it was

87
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:34,960
Speaker 1: a break, but we wanted to get her to the

88
00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:36,960
Speaker 1: ear anyway to go get it checked out.

89
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:38,280
Speaker 3: This is during Halloween.

90
00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:41,880
Speaker 1: It's either on Halloween itself. Are very close, I think,

91
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:45,680
Speaker 1: and there were so many people in our neighborhood we

92
00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 1: couldn't get out. Oh my gosh, so this the yar

93
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:52,120
Speaker 1: is literally coming on Halloween night and the paramedics.

94
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:56,080
Speaker 3: Can't lead stop breaking your legs during Halloween.

95
00:04:56,520 --> 00:05:01,000
Speaker 1: Oh my God, there were cars everywhere lining the streets,

96
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:02,320
Speaker 1: parked in people's yards.

97
00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 4: It was horrible.

98
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:05,800
Speaker 3: You should address as professor act so you could speedily

99
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:06,239
Speaker 3: get away.

100
00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:08,800
Speaker 1: Dude could have could have just wheeled right out of

101
00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:13,839
Speaker 1: we'll skate it out. We had to wait until everyone

102
00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:18,880
Speaker 1: left about one am to get to the hospital way

103
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:22,159
Speaker 1: and usually trick or treating it's like little kids, so it's.

104
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:26,880
Speaker 3: Like eight nine GM Like, god, am well, you probably

105
00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:32,040
Speaker 3: have like the the like older junior high kids too. Yeah.

106
00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:37,280
Speaker 1: God, my daughter had to wait in pain for hours. Oh,

107
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:39,800
Speaker 1: I'm surprised the paramedics didn't just like try to. Maybe

108
00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:41,160
Speaker 1: it was just so hectic.

109
00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:45,880
Speaker 3: Like or just like carrying the kid, yeah, like out

110
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:48,680
Speaker 3: to the edge of the neighbor maybe, I don't know.

111
00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:50,479
Speaker 3: I don't know. But it also like, if it's that

112
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:54,320
Speaker 3: many people you like bumping into, Yeah, really you would

113
00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:55,560
Speaker 3: need a wheelchair.

114
00:05:55,760 --> 00:06:01,320
Speaker 1: Yeah. At that point I was done. I contacted the

115
00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:04,880
Speaker 1: neighborhood community and we managed to get some folks cops

116
00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:08,039
Speaker 1: mostly to stay at the gate with a list and

117
00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:12,800
Speaker 1: only let in certain people folks that live there, family members, friends,

118
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:15,640
Speaker 1: et cetera. If you wanted to get in, you had

119
00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:18,080
Speaker 1: to be close to someone in the neighborhood.

120
00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:23,719
Speaker 3: WHOA, so is this neighborhood gated or not gated? But

121
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:26,360
Speaker 3: now like there's a perimeterive I think.

122
00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:30,200
Speaker 1: I think it's like, you know, typical like open uh driveways.

123
00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:33,000
Speaker 1: But the cops are there checking people.

124
00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:38,760
Speaker 3: Damn dude, you had to They shut down the most

125
00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:40,720
Speaker 3: poppin Halloween spot.

126
00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:48,800
Speaker 2: Wow in this city. Wow, that's crazy. It was great.

127
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:52,160
Speaker 2: There were only about three hundred kids in the neighborhood

128
00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:55,680
Speaker 2: and there was barely any trash. And we're doing it

129
00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:59,160
Speaker 2: again this year. I recently told my sister what I

130
00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:03,159
Speaker 2: have done, and she got really angry. When we were kids,

131
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:05,599
Speaker 2: we had to trick or treat in other neighborhoods because

132
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:08,200
Speaker 2: we lived in a trailer park with no other kids.

133
00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:11,080
Speaker 2: She told me I was a horrible person for ruining

134
00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:12,960
Speaker 2: thousands of kids Halloween.

135
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:15,840
Speaker 3: It was literally thousands of kids.

136
00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:16,720
Speaker 4: It literally was.

137
00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:20,480
Speaker 1: But honestly, I'm not too broken up about it. It

138
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:22,720
Speaker 1: was a hazard if there was a fire or in

139
00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:24,960
Speaker 1: an emergency, no one would be able to get out

140
00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:27,720
Speaker 1: and get help, which is true, which literally happened. YEA.

141
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,280
Speaker 1: When I was a kid, there was never any cars

142
00:07:30,320 --> 00:07:33,360
Speaker 1: lining the streets. The residences could get out if they

143
00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:36,800
Speaker 1: wanted to. It was never dangerous. I don't think I'm

144
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:39,680
Speaker 1: in the wrong, but I've always respected my sister's opinion.

145
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:42,840
Speaker 1: So am I the a hole? And there's some additional info.

146
00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:45,400
Speaker 1: There was no one in the cars. They were parked

147
00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:48,160
Speaker 1: in the middle of the road and in yards, so

148
00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:50,400
Speaker 1: there was no way for me or an ambulance to

149
00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:54,080
Speaker 1: get through unless every driver in the neighborhood at the

150
00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:57,120
Speaker 1: same time went to their cars and drove out. My

151
00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 1: daughter was thirteen and in that awkward phase where she

152
00:07:59,880 --> 00:08:02,480
Speaker 1: didn't want to bother anyone for help and said it

153
00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:03,480
Speaker 1: didn't hurt that bad.

154
00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:07,840
Speaker 3: Well, so, like, okay, first off, yep, I feel like

155
00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:10,680
Speaker 3: most thirteen year olds that I know that if they

156
00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:12,920
Speaker 3: broke their legs would be screaming their heads off.

157
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:13,960
Speaker 4: Dude, I would be.

158
00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:16,320
Speaker 3: I would be a little fit, Oh be a little

159
00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:21,240
Speaker 3: old monster. Yeah. But second, I actually think there's like

160
00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:26,360
Speaker 3: a like a medium or or like I feel like

161
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:29,800
Speaker 3: op maybe took a step too far brocking everyone out.

162
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:33,040
Speaker 3: There's like a intermediary step that could have been taken

163
00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:36,280
Speaker 3: where it's just like tell the police officers to not

164
00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:40,040
Speaker 3: letting anyone park where they shouldn't be parking. Let all

165
00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:42,600
Speaker 3: the kids come. It doesn't seem like the kids were

166
00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:45,120
Speaker 3: the issue. It seems like it was the parked cars

167
00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:47,360
Speaker 3: that were the issue, and so let the kids keep

168
00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:50,520
Speaker 3: coming and then just get rid of the parked cars.

169
00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:53,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, I would at least say, like try that for

170
00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:56,440
Speaker 1: the next year and then if it's still like and

171
00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:58,840
Speaker 1: I guess Op was also saying like it would just

172
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:02,480
Speaker 1: trash the neighborhood. So there's other like side effects that

173
00:09:02,600 --> 00:09:04,880
Speaker 1: wouldn't solve, But like that would be the win win

174
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:07,240
Speaker 1: scenario where it's like, hey, if there's an emergency, like

175
00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:11,240
Speaker 1: a paramedic like wringing their lights in the street, they'll get.

176
00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:12,200
Speaker 4: Through if it's just people.

177
00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:15,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, but obviously if it's rows of parked cars fully

178
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:16,840
Speaker 1: blocking the street, you know you can't.

179
00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:18,840
Speaker 3: It's it's not gonna So it feels like the park

180
00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:21,880
Speaker 3: cars were the issues. So like, so I mean I

181
00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:25,440
Speaker 3: think saw that, but I mean it's Op's neighborhoods. So

182
00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:29,600
Speaker 3: it's like my turf bro, it's O P. Yeah, So

183
00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:32,959
Speaker 3: I don't I don't necessarily think Ope is an asshole

184
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:34,400
Speaker 3: for kicking out thousands of kids.

185
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:37,320
Speaker 1: I think because of the safety concern, OPI is not

186
00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:37,800
Speaker 1: an a hole.

187
00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:41,000
Speaker 3: Yes, literally was affected by the safety concern.

188
00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:43,960
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, and literally was like, yes, it does have

189
00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:46,760
Speaker 1: this horrible side effect of like.

190
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:51,360
Speaker 4: Killing that all these children.

191
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:55,480
Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, you know, it's

192
00:09:55,800 --> 00:09:59,120
Speaker 1: an if a worse emergency were to happen. Yeah, imagine

193
00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:01,360
Speaker 1: if someone was like a having a heart attack harding.

194
00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:02,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, you.

195
00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:05,200
Speaker 4: Need to have that. So I think, op, not the hill.

196
00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:07,760
Speaker 4: But let us know in the comments, maybe.

197
00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:11,040

198
00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:12,040

Speaker 5: and learn more about your culture or learn about scholarships

236
00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:15,440
Speaker 5: or you, know use this as a chance to learn

237
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:20,520
Speaker 5: about you, Know Native american, culture and she basically, said

238
00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:24,720
Speaker 5: because she has been raised white all her, life she

239
00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:31,400
Speaker 5: thinks it's actually racist for her to learn about her

240
00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:37,720
Speaker 5: heritage and to explore, it and to she doesn't even

241
00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:40,040

242
00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:43,160
Speaker 5: everybody in my family is encouraging her to use it

243
00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:47,920
Speaker 5: for scholarships because we Don't we aren't really well, Off

244
00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:50,160
Speaker 5: we don't have a lot of. Money so it would

245
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:52,160
Speaker 5: be a good opportunity for her to go to art

246
00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:55,520
Speaker 5: school because it's something she's always wanted to. Do but

247
00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:59,559
Speaker 5: she just kind of trusts down the conversation anytime we

248
00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:03,240
Speaker 5: talk about. It SO i wanted to know what SHOULD i?

249

250
00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:09,560
Speaker 5: Again WOULD i be an apple IF i was pushing

251
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:12,280
Speaker 5: her to try to learn about a culture she doesn't

252
00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:15,760
Speaker 5: want to learn. About so let me know BECAUSE i

253
00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:18,120

Speaker 4: Now we could let's, see.

262
00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:34,840
Speaker 3: But, wait but before we call, her like what what

263
00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:35,120
Speaker 3: do you.

264
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:39,960
Speaker 1: THINK i think that sometimes sometimes it could go like

265
00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:43,640
Speaker 1: on the on the dial of like the woke. DIAL

266
00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:46,200
Speaker 1: i guess you could say you almost go too far

267
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:49,520
Speaker 1: in the sense of, like uh, OH i don't want

268
00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:53,160
Speaker 1: to research it or learn about. IT i do think

269
00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:58,600
Speaker 1: that the point of the scholarships less so because that

270
00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:00,520
Speaker 1: to me is, like all, right it's it's it's it's

271
00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:04,280
Speaker 1: really intended for someone who is a part of.

272
00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:04,920
Speaker 3: The Native american.

273
00:14:04,920 --> 00:14:07,720
Speaker 1: Community so that, one that one definitely. Less but as

274
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:10,240
Speaker 1: far as like learning about it and understanding. It and

275
00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:13,440
Speaker 1: also there's the classic, question what what what percentage are

276
00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:13,880
Speaker 1: we talking?

277
00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:17,160
Speaker 4: About that's the very good. Question, yeah BUT i think

278
00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:17,720
Speaker 4: that's what we should.

279
00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:19,960
Speaker 3: Ask we should. Ask but what is the first that's a?

Speaker 3: essay give it a second to wrap it. UP i

310
00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:49,120
Speaker 3: think it's up to the person whose heritage or blood

311
00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:52,440
Speaker 3: it is to decide how they want to engage with

312
00:15:52,560 --> 00:15:56,280
Speaker 3: that heritage and their. Past so are you the asshole

313
00:15:56,640 --> 00:16:01,120
Speaker 3: not for, like like you, know encouraging. It but if

314
00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:04,400
Speaker 3: she's uncomfortable or doesn't want to then it's like it

315
00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:05,280
Speaker 3: really it's up to.
