1 00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:02,920 Speaker 1: Calf I Am six forty. You're listening to the John 2 00:00:02,920 --> 00:00:08,719 Speaker 1: and Ken Show on demand on the iHeartRadio app. We're 3 00:00:08,760 --> 00:00:10,840 Speaker 1: on live on the radio from one until four. After 4 00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:13,720 Speaker 1: four o'clock, you can hear the show on the app. 5 00:00:14,200 --> 00:00:15,840 Speaker 1: John and kenn on DEMANDAG is the name of it. 6 00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:19,159 Speaker 1: So anything he missed you can make up later on. 7 00:00:19,520 --> 00:00:22,680 Speaker 1: We're ready to go now we do. We have a 8 00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:25,880 Speaker 1: real lot in store for you today, including an interview 9 00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:28,520 Speaker 1: next hour with a management on our show a number 10 00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:32,159 Speaker 1: of times Michael Rutherford from the Critical Justice Legal Foundation, 11 00:00:32,240 --> 00:00:35,080 Speaker 1: always with bad news when he comes on. It is. 12 00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:38,320 Speaker 1: It's quite a proposed bill in Sacramento. But it proves 13 00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:41,720 Speaker 1: something that I have said for years on the John 14 00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:46,120 Speaker 1: and Ken Show. Eventually there will not be life in 15 00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:48,879 Speaker 1: prison without parole. It will not exist. There'll always be 16 00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:51,120 Speaker 1: a way out, even for the worst of the killers. 17 00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:53,559 Speaker 1: And here it comes. We have a bill that may 18 00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:56,840 Speaker 1: just do that. Yes, not only no more death penalty, 19 00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:00,400 Speaker 1: no more life without parole. Everybody gets out. And this 20 00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:03,640 Speaker 1: is the incremental approach that we've talked about many times 21 00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:09,680 Speaker 1: and over the last thirteen years. Now every year, another 22 00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:13,119 Speaker 1: bill and another bill and another bill, and every one 23 00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:16,880 Speaker 1: of them dump more prisoners out earlier and earlier, or 24 00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:19,520 Speaker 1: they don't prosecute them to begin with. Yep, and they 25 00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:21,720 Speaker 1: fake you out. They say things like, well, you know, 26 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:24,240 Speaker 1: we're gonna put a hold on the death penalty. That's 27 00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 1: our chaic we're done with that. But don't worry. Murderers 28 00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:30,279 Speaker 1: will get life without parole, will never get out of prison. 29 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:32,480 Speaker 1: And I knew they were lying. There were none. I 30 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:35,080 Speaker 1: knew was John said. Incrementally they would chip away at that. 31 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:36,880 Speaker 1: And now we've got a bill that wants to do 32 00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:40,600 Speaker 1: just that. And even worse, we're talking about twenty years 33 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:43,640 Speaker 1: should be enough for a murderer. Twenty that's what they're thinking. 34 00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:48,280 Speaker 1: Twenty years. And I heard I think Gascon he either 35 00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:50,480 Speaker 1: said fifteen or twenty years. He said the same thing, 36 00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:54,080 Speaker 1: George Gascon, thea that that's enough time. Yeah, I'm sure 37 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:57,920 Speaker 1: like anything. Yeah, oh no, I've heard him say that. Yeah. 38 00:01:57,960 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 1: So this is this is part of where they come 39 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:01,400 Speaker 1: up with this magic number. But I think that should 40 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:05,720 Speaker 1: be the maximum prison time. They don't. This is this 41 00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:08,640 Speaker 1: is not even the end of it. Eventually that should 42 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:10,960 Speaker 1: be five years or two where there would be no prisons, 43 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:14,160 Speaker 1: There'll be no jails. There'll be no prosecutions anymore until 44 00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 1: until we're all dead, until all the bad guys kill 45 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:22,720 Speaker 1: all the good people. Wow, yep, I'm telling you this 46 00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:26,120 Speaker 1: is a larger plot. This is a lart. This is 47 00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:31,239 Speaker 1: not happening randomly. If you wanted to destroy a successful society, 48 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:34,240 Speaker 1: what would you do differently than what they're doing? What 49 00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:37,080 Speaker 1: would you do differently? If you had a plot to 50 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:42,800 Speaker 1: undermine a peaceful, successful, wealthy, civilized society, what would you 51 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:47,840 Speaker 1: do differently? Yeah, they're they're they're after, They're after the 52 00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 1: destruction of our way of living, and they're getting it 53 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:53,000 Speaker 1: because no one's paying attention. And they have done it 54 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 1: brilliantly with these incremental, bite sized changes that add up 55 00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 1: to massive radical revolution to thirteen years. Here's a peak 56 00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 1: at some of their crazy thinking in a local La 57 00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:10,280 Speaker 1: City council story worth a few minutes on. They passed 58 00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:15,160 Speaker 1: yesterday eight to four an ordinance allowing police to arrest 59 00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:19,720 Speaker 1: anyone who has a catalytic converter that is not connected 60 00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:23,080 Speaker 1: to a vehicle and does not produce a receipt or 61 00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:26,880 Speaker 1: other identifying information like a document from an auto repair 62 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:32,200 Speaker 1: shop showing the ownership councilman John Lee, he's the one 63 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:36,080 Speaker 1: that replaced Mitch Englander from the Valley, supported the ordinance 64 00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:39,960 Speaker 1: and thinks it will help LAPD get a grip on 65 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 1: all the catalytic converter thefts because it is very difficult 66 00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:47,000 Speaker 1: to catch them in the act. And if you don't 67 00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 1: catch them in the act, then what kind of crime 68 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:52,119 Speaker 1: are you going to charge them with. You pull them 69 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:54,640 Speaker 1: over and they say, well, this is my catalytic converter. 70 00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:57,840 Speaker 1: I just bought a new one, or I just bought 71 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 1: a used one. I'm replacing it, and you can't put 72 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:04,920 Speaker 1: them away, So now you have to prove immediately that 73 00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 1: you bought this. So the peak I'm talking about comes 74 00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 1: from the four people who voted to no. Heather Hut 75 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:17,880 Speaker 1: she's Mark Ridley, Thomas's replacement, Mithia Rahman, My Boy, Marquis 76 00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:23,880 Speaker 1: Harris Dawson, and Unicis Hernandez voted against the measure. One 77 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:26,240 Speaker 1: of them said no, there's already laws on the books 78 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:29,000 Speaker 1: for Catalina converted to theft. But the one that said 79 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:33,440 Speaker 1: the most unsis Hernandez says, and this is the quote 80 00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:37,159 Speaker 1: that really sticks in my head, Well, a criminal conviction 81 00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:40,919 Speaker 1: in jail time can damage someone's life forever, leading to 82 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:45,720 Speaker 1: collateral consequences like the ability inability to obtain jobs, to 83 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:49,040 Speaker 1: rent departments, and get a loan. This puts people in 84 00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 1: the revolving door of desperation and recidivism right there. Take 85 00:04:53,640 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 1: that quote that explains everything that's going on and the 86 00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,159 Speaker 1: madness of the world of not sending anybody to jail 87 00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:01,920 Speaker 1: or prison is they believe it ruins their life and 88 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 1: they'll never get out of it, so therefore we don't 89 00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:07,360 Speaker 1: punish anybody. Ever. This even explains this idea what the 90 00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 1: murderers probably let's reduced their sentence, and it's it's an 91 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:13,960 Speaker 1: invented concept because there are plenty of people who commit 92 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:16,760 Speaker 1: early crimes in their life and they come back from it. 93 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:19,839 Speaker 1: You just can't keep committing crimes, and when you don't 94 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:23,680 Speaker 1: have consequences, for example, stealing a catalytic converter, you will 95 00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:27,880 Speaker 1: commit more crimes. Anybody with a two year old knows this. 96 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:32,160 Speaker 1: The more you allow, the more bad behavior you'll get. 97 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:36,800 Speaker 1: So she's wrong. They all have reasoning. When the first 98 00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 1: time you hear the reasoning, it's I guess I understand 99 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:41,400 Speaker 1: that no, no, no, this is what we have to 100 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:43,640 Speaker 1: stop this is what we have to turn around because 101 00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:46,880 Speaker 1: this explains it. Well, this is their thinking, Well, I 102 00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:49,280 Speaker 1: don't want to ruin somebody's life just because they committed 103 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 1: a crime. They're thinking is they want no one in jail. 104 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:56,240 Speaker 1: And they come up with a whole wide range of 105 00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:58,560 Speaker 1: excuses as to why people shouldn't have been in jail. 106 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:01,480 Speaker 1: If it wasn't this reason, it would have been another reason. 107 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:05,520 Speaker 1: Okay they use They use the race card as well, 108 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:10,120 Speaker 1: saying well, there's a disproportionate amount of Oh stop it, okay, 109 00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:13,920 Speaker 1: maybe there's a disproportionate amount of a certain demographic that's 110 00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 1: actually stealing the catalytic converters. You get thrown in jail 111 00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:21,200 Speaker 1: because you stole the converter, not because the color of 112 00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:24,000 Speaker 1: your skin or your ethnicity. Now, another peak in this 113 00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 1: story at this decrepit ideology comes from another reference un 114 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:34,080 Speaker 1: assist Hernandez and council member you go so too, Martinez, 115 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:36,400 Speaker 1: the guy that took the fence down. Oh if we 116 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:38,120 Speaker 1: checked on the Echo Park Lake to see if the 117 00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:40,120 Speaker 1: vagrants are back yet, we got to get an updated. Yeah, 118 00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:43,279 Speaker 1: I know too much stuff. And when you hear this, 119 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:45,600 Speaker 1: think about what was happening. A couple of years ago, 120 00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:47,800 Speaker 1: and we had these people who were being stopped in 121 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 1: the street and their watches and phones were being stolen 122 00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 1: from them, and they were telling us be careful, don't 123 00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:56,120 Speaker 1: be out there driving a flashy car or have a 124 00:06:56,120 --> 00:07:00,240 Speaker 1: lot of flashy jewels, showing their idea for catalytic urder 125 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:03,080 Speaker 1: theft is to help you get an anti theft device, 126 00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:07,520 Speaker 1: some sort of a cage to protect your catalytic converter. 127 00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:10,760 Speaker 1: In other words, you have to be preventative. We can't 128 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:13,840 Speaker 1: go after the bad guys. Okay, So so these two, 129 00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:18,160 Speaker 1: they're on the watch list here because this is unsis 130 00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 1: hernandez uh and Hugo Sodo Martinez yere socialist democrats. There's 131 00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:27,600 Speaker 1: socialist democrats. So the issue is not putting people in 132 00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 1: jail who steal the catalytic converters. The issue is you 133 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 1: having to install a cage to isolate the catalytic converter. 134 00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:40,200 Speaker 1: It's your fault for not parting a security cage underneath 135 00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:43,800 Speaker 1: your car. Did you see what Marquis Harris Dawson said, 136 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:47,600 Speaker 1: When somebody gets something stolen, the city should do everything 137 00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 1: we can to make sure they're made whole, not to 138 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:57,240 Speaker 1: punish another person. Holy mackerel that that defies civil logic. 139 00:07:57,360 --> 00:08:00,200 Speaker 1: That that's what he said. It's it's in print here 140 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:02,160 Speaker 1: in the time. He is crazy. So the city has 141 00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:04,480 Speaker 1: to go and replace your catalytic converter. But we're not 142 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:07,120 Speaker 1: gonna put anybody or punish anybody for stealing it from you. 143 00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:09,680 Speaker 1: The city buys the converter, we have to buy a 144 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:12,400 Speaker 1: cage to protect it, and the guy who stole it 145 00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:15,520 Speaker 1: can go on to commit more crimes because it's got 146 00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:16,960 Speaker 1: a tough life than he had to do it. He 147 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,480 Speaker 1: doesn't have a tough life. He sold the catalytic converter 148 00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:21,880 Speaker 1: and got paid for it, so he can steal ten 149 00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:24,920 Speaker 1: of them. Oh, it's because he's desperate and poor. He's 150 00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:30,200 Speaker 1: and you're racist. He's making money. And these people, I've 151 00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 1: got this this this this racial scam going where they're 152 00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 1: where they're pushing that every crime be wiped off the 153 00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:42,360 Speaker 1: books because a disproportionate number of people in a certain 154 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:45,640 Speaker 1: race is accused of its society's unjust, so he can't 155 00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:49,720 Speaker 1: punish it. Insane and everybody's timid and afraid. Well, well 156 00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:51,840 Speaker 1: that's really wrong, but I don't want to say anything 157 00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:55,560 Speaker 1: because then they might call me races. Holy mackerel, don't 158 00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:58,760 Speaker 1: you see what's happening here? These people are crazy, and 159 00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:02,000 Speaker 1: by the way, they know better. They're not as stupid 160 00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:05,720 Speaker 1: as they sound. They know better. They're trying to destroy 161 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:12,160 Speaker 1: the whole system, and they're frightening people with racial accusations. 162 00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 1: They're coming up with all sorts of childish excuses, like 163 00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:18,360 Speaker 1: your little kid wouldn't come up with the excuses that 164 00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:21,040 Speaker 1: this crowd's coming up with. But it all is to 165 00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:26,400 Speaker 1: confuse you, emotionally, manipulate you, kind of kind of disorient you.

You can always go 195 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:54,160 Speaker 1: to him for two things stuff like that in sports, yeah, 196 00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:57,079 Speaker 1: because he's the DUCA sports all right. Well, two areas 197 00:10:57,120 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 1: of expertise is better than nothing, but most people have nothing, Eric, 198 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 1: Will the Lakers go all the way. I am cautiously optimistic. 199 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:06,240 Speaker 1: I think they'll make it out of the first round. 200 00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:09,719 Speaker 1: All right, there you go, say it's boom. You ask 201 00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:11,840 Speaker 1: a sports question. In boom, there's an answer, and it 202 00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:16,120 Speaker 1: doesn't matter what sport. It could be anything. This odd development, 203 00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:19,760 Speaker 1: I think it's odd. In the Kentucky shooting at the 204 00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:27,000 Speaker 1: bank in Louisville, they're auctioning off the gunman's rifle already. Yeah, 205 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 1: it's under it's a Kentucky law. Well, I don't know 206 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:33,120 Speaker 1: if it's today the auction, but that's what they're going 207 00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:37,679 Speaker 1: to do. Yeah, the Kentucky State Police will conduct an 208 00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:40,439 Speaker 1: auction and keep twenty percent of the proceeds from the sale. 209 00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:42,840 Speaker 1: The rest of the money will go to the Kentucky 210 00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:45,720 Speaker 1: Office of Homeland Security, so it doesn't go to the 211 00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:48,880 Speaker 1: victims families or anything. It's kind of weird first I 212 00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:52,240 Speaker 1: heard of this. I only license firearm dealers can bid 213 00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:58,040 Speaker 1: on the firearm, so it goes back, it gets recycled. Well, 214 00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 1: so could you're right, so that's somebody else could trigger 215 00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:05,120 Speaker 1: a mass shooting. Well, this leads somebody really sick to 216 00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:07,240 Speaker 1: want to get that thing just because it killed people, 217 00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:11,640 Speaker 1: or if if it's identified. Oh you know, sure, they 218 00:12:11,720 --> 00:12:14,240 Speaker 1: just become another generic rifle. And well they all have 219 00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:16,480 Speaker 1: serial numbers. What if the serial number leaks out? So 220 00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:20,720 Speaker 1: you know you're getting Yeah, I suppose because he bought 221 00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 1: this gun legally, so it's probably got a serial number. 222 00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:26,120 Speaker 1: Fight that really? Yeah? I was at first I thought, well, 223 00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:28,320 Speaker 1: don't they have to hold it for evidence? But he's dead, 224 00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:32,720 Speaker 1: so there is no time for evidence, and uh, it's 225 00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:34,920 Speaker 1: time to sell it make money for the uh for 226 00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:38,240 Speaker 1: the government there. Yeah, yeah, that's why. That's why when 227 00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:41,320 Speaker 1: I see, uh, these these protests, so we have to 228 00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:44,440 Speaker 1: have gun control. Oh, blah blah, you that is an 229 00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:49,480 Speaker 1: impossible dream. The cult, the gun culture is so much 230 00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:52,160 Speaker 1: different than the people pumping their fish in the streets 231 00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:56,240 Speaker 1: in outrage. It's you're you're not gonna win because they 232 00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 1: have the guns and you don't, so they win. Yeah. 233 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:03,480 Speaker 1: The Louis Hill mayor Craig Greenberg is frustrated. This means 234 00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:05,600 Speaker 1: the murder weapon could be right back on the streets. 235 00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 1: Isn't it great under Kentucky's current laws. That's an odd law, 236 00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:12,679 Speaker 1: but I'd never really thought about it before. Usually they 237 00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:15,600 Speaker 1: melt them down or destroy them. I think I don't know, 238 00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:18,120 Speaker 1: is what I think that occurred to me. I know, 239 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:20,000 Speaker 1: I never really thought about what they do with the 240 00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:23,000 Speaker 1: weapon for the gunman that because you're right, if he lives, 241 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:25,640 Speaker 1: they need it for evidence. Right, if he's dead and 242 00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:28,960 Speaker 1: there's no trial coming, what do they do with thecl 243 00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 1: Now we know what they do in Kentucky. Now my 244 00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:35,280 Speaker 1: favorite story of the day. Like I said, not particularly important, 245 00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:37,800 Speaker 1: but still great. As you know, there's a debate going on, 246 00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:40,480 Speaker 1: particularly in California and Sacramento, and a big one in 247 00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:45,000 Speaker 1: San Francisco over reparations. This story, though, takes us to Ohio, 248 00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:49,200 Speaker 1: and this is not a joke. Apparently, a woman at 249 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:53,280 Speaker 1: a Target store in Blue Ash, Ohio. Don't ask me 250 00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:57,600 Speaker 1: where that is. It was a Target superstore. She apparently 251 00:13:57,640 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 1: bought quite a bit of groceries thousand dollars worth, and 252 00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:05,280 Speaker 1: then got into argument with the store manager because she 253 00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:13,120 Speaker 1: wanted it taken care of through reparations. Karen Ivory asked 254 00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:16,880 Speaker 1: a cashier for the manager regarding the bill and reparations. 255 00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:21,280 Speaker 1: The cashier said that she brought up reparations several times 256 00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:24,840 Speaker 1: during their brief encounter before the manager arrived. When speaking 257 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:27,600 Speaker 1: with the manager, the customer first asked for reparations and 258 00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:32,240 Speaker 1: grew angry and then walked aggressively toward the manager. She 259 00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:36,480 Speaker 1: kept berating her about reparations and her privileged life. Well, 260 00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:39,840 Speaker 1: things got a little ugly, because I love the way 261 00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:44,320 Speaker 1: they call them loss prevention officers. Security guard, Yeah, Zach 262 00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:49,080 Speaker 1: Cutter intervened, said please calm down and leave the store. Well, 263 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:52,520 Speaker 1: she began screaming, and she started following him to his office, 264 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:55,479 Speaker 1: and when he tried to shut the door, she allegedly 265 00:14:55,480 --> 00:15:00,080 Speaker 1: forced her way in. So he threw a punch and 266 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:06,040 Speaker 1: looks like, yeah, down she goes, just like knocked out 267 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:10,640 Speaker 1: in a prize fight. Right down she went. And this 268 00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:13,760 Speaker 1: actually happened in October. They've released the video recently and 269 00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:16,080 Speaker 1: they've kind of resolved the whole matter and the woman 270 00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:21,760 Speaker 1: demanding reparations Karen Ivory. She was cited for disorderly conduct 271 00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:25,480 Speaker 1: and went to jail and aggressor Yeah, one hundred ten 272 00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:29,280 Speaker 1: dollars fine. I don't know that Target has a reparations policy, 273 00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:33,080 Speaker 1: So therefore she's asking for something that doesn't exist. Unless 274 00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:35,360 Speaker 1: I'm wrong with all the woke corporate stuff going on, 275 00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:39,040 Speaker 1: maybe I'm wrong. Yeah, I know there's a possibility. You are. 276 00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:42,160 Speaker 1: Maybe there's a secret message. If a customer ask for reparations, 277 00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:44,960 Speaker 1: be polite and give it to him. Thousand dollars worth 278 00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:49,400 Speaker 1: of groceries. You can't fit that into one grocery card. 279 00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:52,400 Speaker 1: That's about five grocery cards. If you piled up liquor, 280 00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:55,880 Speaker 1: and I'm not saying she did, but some groceries maybe heads. 281 00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:56,920 Speaker 1: I want to know what. I want to know what 282 00:15:57,000 --> 00:15:59,360 Speaker 1: she bought? You buy stakes? How much is a big 283 00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:02,760 Speaker 1: hefty stay these days at a higher end, or well 284 00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 1: I could go for I don't know, like forty dollars. Yeah, 285 00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:09,640 Speaker 1: it still would be a lot of stuff. That's a 286 00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:12,120 Speaker 1: lot several baskets. I know. That's what it says. A 287 00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:13,920 Speaker 1: thousand dollars Yeah, I said the same thing. A thousand 288 00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:20,320 Speaker 1: dollars worth of groceries and that's reparations. Yeah. Well, so 289 00:16:20,360 --> 00:16:22,920 Speaker 1: they decided she was the aggressor. The security guard was 290 00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:27,640 Speaker 1: not punished because in effect it was self defense and 291 00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:29,680 Speaker 1: that she tried to push her way in and would 292 00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:33,800 Speaker 1: not leave. In places like Ohio, like the Kentucky story, 293 00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:38,200 Speaker 1: people don't put up with stuff. It's not like living 294 00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:41,920 Speaker 1: in la You get a distorted sense of reality. Living 295 00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:44,440 Speaker 1: in Los Angeles, out out out in the think somebody 296 00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:46,480 Speaker 1: did this in an LA Target, but they get the 297 00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:49,560 Speaker 1: money or they get the Oh, I think the security 298 00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:52,520 Speaker 1: guard would be hauled off. Oh, I see what you mean. Yes, 299 00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:55,320 Speaker 1: I think you're right. The most the most shocking part 300 00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:57,040 Speaker 1: of the story to me is that they put the 301 00:16:57,120 --> 00:17:00,400 Speaker 1: woman in jail. She was sentenced to a day jail 302 00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:03,320 Speaker 1: and charged one hundred and ten dollars for disorderly conduct. 303 00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:06,520 Speaker 1: Another favorite part of the story is she told the 304 00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:09,960 Speaker 1: manager of the Target store, this is my Rosa Parks moment. 305 00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:14,240 Speaker 1: Uh huh wow, my thousand dollars worth of free stuff 306 00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:18,360 Speaker 1: from Target. One of all the mental illnesses, delusional behaviors 307 00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:20,600 Speaker 1: one of the most fascinating to me. You can't make 308 00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:25,160 Speaker 1: this up. Somebody convinces themselves of something that is so absurd, 309 00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:30,040 Speaker 1: but they're absolutely sure they're right. Yeah. I would say, 310 00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:31,760 Speaker 1: you know, if she had a sense of humor about 311 00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:32,960 Speaker 1: it and then came home and said, at it was 312 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:35,280 Speaker 1: worth a try, But she got so aggressive and hunched 313 00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:39,560 Speaker 1: at It's like and thinking you could walk out of 314 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:43,560 Speaker 1: a thousand dollars worth of groceries because it's by reparations. Wow. 315 00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:47,280 Speaker 1: Eddie get to that point. That's where we are. All right, 316 00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:49,200 Speaker 1: we got more coming up. John and Ken kf I 317 00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:52,280 Speaker 1: AM six forty. We're live everywhere in the iHeartRadio app. 318 00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:56,560 Speaker 1: You're listening to John and Ken on demand from kf 319 00:17:56,600 --> 00:18:01,399 Speaker 1: I AM sixty. All right, Well, we had sort of 320 00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:04,320 Speaker 1: predicted this for years, and now we're seeing a bill 321 00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:08,080 Speaker 1: in Sacramento. We'll talk about next hour with Michael Rushford 322 00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:12,959 Speaker 1: from the Criminal Justice Legal Foundation. This bill is going 323 00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:16,440 Speaker 1: to be heard in the Senate Public Safety Committee to 324 00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:19,600 Speaker 1: give the States murderers those have been sentenced to death 325 00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:22,040 Speaker 1: or life without the possibility of parole. They call it 326 00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:26,680 Speaker 1: LWOP the opportunity to have their sentences invalidated and make 327 00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:30,679 Speaker 1: them eligible for release. It's hard to believe, but Senate 328 00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:33,639 Speaker 1: Bill ninety four is real. It was authored by the 329 00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:38,639 Speaker 1: state Senator Dave Cortisse of Santa Clara, and it specifies 330 00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:42,320 Speaker 1: that criminals convicted of murder with special circumstances before June 331 00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:45,080 Speaker 1: fifth of nineteen ninety and sentenced to death or life 332 00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:48,399 Speaker 1: without parole could be provided with a public defender to 333 00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:53,119 Speaker 1: petition for recall and resentencing, and we could be talking 334 00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:58,560 Speaker 1: about some murderers getting out after only twenty years of prisoners? 335 00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:05,480 Speaker 1: And do you know how manybody released immediately? How many hundreds? 336 00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:08,840 Speaker 1: Maybe guys who are already put in their twenty years. Yeah, 337 00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:10,879 Speaker 1: because we don't actually execute people. There's a lot of 338 00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:13,560 Speaker 1: people who committed murders before nineteen ninety in prison, Guys 339 00:19:13,600 --> 00:19:18,000 Speaker 1: who committed murders in their teens and twenties, and they're 340 00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:20,800 Speaker 1: not that old. And now they spent twenty years in 341 00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:25,520 Speaker 1: prison after killing somebody that's going to be out there. 342 00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:28,600 Speaker 1: What do you think's going to happen? These psychos are 343 00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:31,919 Speaker 1: going to kill more people? Why wouldn't they? All Right, 344 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:35,440 Speaker 1: so we'll get into that. We knew that they would 345 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:40,640 Speaker 1: chip away and eventually end the concept of life without parole. 346 00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:44,000 Speaker 1: What would it take did get people to vote differently? 347 00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:47,640 Speaker 1: I don't know anybody who wants this crap. I don't 348 00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:50,960 Speaker 1: know the person who wants this. Who's the person who 349 00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:54,560 Speaker 1: wants the murderers out after twenty years? Raise your hand, 350 00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 1: identify yourself. A big story we did yesterday was about 351 00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:03,320 Speaker 1: the clothes they say, temporarily of a Whole Foods in 352 00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:06,320 Speaker 1: San Francisco, only a year after it opened. It's in 353 00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:09,680 Speaker 1: the Tenderloin district of that city, which is particularly troubled 354 00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:15,120 Speaker 1: with homeless and drug addicts, disastrous, thousands thousands of them. 355 00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:20,120 Speaker 1: So the update on the story comes from two sources. 356 00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:23,360 Speaker 1: First of all, there is a supervisor for that district 357 00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:28,679 Speaker 1: who actually got elected because he says there's safety issues. 358 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:30,920 Speaker 1: It's hard to believe, but you know, they recalled the 359 00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:33,440 Speaker 1: DA in San Francisco. There's a few people left who 360 00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:36,280 Speaker 1: think that this is way out of control. His name 361 00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:41,639 Speaker 1: is Matt Dorsey, supervisor for District six, and he wants 362 00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:44,280 Speaker 1: to amend the city charter so they can hire more 363 00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:48,680 Speaker 1: police officers. It would mandate a minimum number of cops 364 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:52,439 Speaker 1: in the city. And of course the defund the police 365 00:20:52,480 --> 00:20:54,760 Speaker 1: thing is still fresh and activist lines, you know what 366 00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:56,840 Speaker 1: they can imagine in a place like San Francisco, this 367 00:20:56,920 --> 00:20:59,640 Speaker 1: might be a tough move. Well, here's the reality, because 368 00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:02,600 Speaker 1: he could ass his amendment all he wants. Now it 369 00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:05,160 Speaker 1: goes to the voters. But they're they're fun. They're five 370 00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:12,280 Speaker 1: hundred cops short, and the recruiting classes are eight ten 371 00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:17,840 Speaker 1: applicants that nobody wants to be a cop, and the 372 00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:21,720 Speaker 1: old cops are quitting or retiring in record numbers, not 373 00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:26,119 Speaker 1: just in San Francisco, but all over the country because 374 00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:29,520 Speaker 1: they're demonized. They feel like they're going to be set 375 00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:33,600 Speaker 1: up to get to get indicted themselves, and they just 376 00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:35,800 Speaker 1: don't simply don't want to do it anymore. Yeah, morale 377 00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:38,560 Speaker 1: is really low, but well they don't. They figure that 378 00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:41,720 Speaker 1: if if they have to, if they're involved with in 379 00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:45,840 Speaker 1: a bad situation where they have to shoot somebody, um, 380 00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:49,840 Speaker 1: they'll end up going to jail for it, or they'll 381 00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:53,280 Speaker 1: hold back and die. So they don't want to do it. 382 00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:58,200 Speaker 1: But what's the point here? And how how do you want? 383 00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:01,159 Speaker 1: You really want to spend your days being called to 384 00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:05,160 Speaker 1: crime scene after crime scene, incident after incident, and then 385 00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:07,320 Speaker 1: you have to tell everybody I can't do anything. I 386 00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:10,159 Speaker 1: can't do anything. They've tied our hands. They won't let 387 00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:13,240 Speaker 1: us do that. Well, the other part of that story 388 00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:16,560 Speaker 1: is contained in an interview that Fox News did with 389 00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:22,040 Speaker 1: a former San Francisco prosecutor named Charles Colly Stimpson. He's 390 00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:25,919 Speaker 1: now a senior legal fellow at the Heritage Foundation. But 391 00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:29,160 Speaker 1: he was trying to respond to what we talked about yesterday. 392 00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:32,160 Speaker 1: They also Gonna Times and other media outlets are printing 393 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:35,960 Speaker 1: all these San Francisco crime statistics, which they say be 394 00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:39,280 Speaker 1: lie the belief that the city is a violent place, 395 00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:43,560 Speaker 1: particularly after the stabbing of that Tech executive, Bob Lee. 396 00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:46,399 Speaker 1: And he says what we've been saying, people do not 397 00:22:46,560 --> 00:22:48,440 Speaker 1: report a lot of the crimes because you have a 398 00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:51,680 Speaker 1: DA who's pro criminal, not going to enforce the law. 399 00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:53,560 Speaker 1: The cops aren't going to go out and arrest somebody 400 00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:55,720 Speaker 1: when they know the case is going to be what 401 00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:59,320 Speaker 1: they call no papered, which means it's just not going 402 00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:02,359 Speaker 1: to be process test. And what he did in this interview, 403 00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:05,800 Speaker 1: he went beyond the well, the current DA, but the 404 00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:08,040 Speaker 1: DA before that, of course, was the chase of Bodin. 405 00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:11,280 Speaker 1: But he went back and talked about what got unraveled 406 00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:14,600 Speaker 1: because George Gascon was their DA. George Gascon was the 407 00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:19,000 Speaker 1: DA in San Francisco from January twenty eleven until October 408 00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:21,520 Speaker 1: of twenty nineteen until we got stuck with them in 409 00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:24,800 Speaker 1: the vote in twenty twenty. And he says he started things. 410 00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:28,960 Speaker 1: If you go back before Gascone, you see really relatively 411 00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:33,800 Speaker 1: low crime rates. But once Gascone took over, and he 412 00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:38,840 Speaker 1: cites FBI data when Gascon took office in twenty eleven, 413 00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:42,159 Speaker 1: seven hundred and fifty seven reported rapes, an average of 414 00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:45,560 Speaker 1: one hundred and fifty one per year. His last five years, 415 00:23:45,560 --> 00:23:48,800 Speaker 1: the city had one thousand, seven thirty one reported rapes, 416 00:23:49,160 --> 00:23:52,639 Speaker 1: or three hundred and forty six per year. So the 417 00:23:53,760 --> 00:24:00,800 Speaker 1: rape frequency doubled from the five years before gascon the 418 00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:04,359 Speaker 1: gascons last five years, the number of rapes doubled. And 419 00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:08,159 Speaker 1: this is what we always try to point out. You 420 00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:13,119 Speaker 1: can't compare crime rates to last year or two years ago, 421 00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:18,200 Speaker 1: go back ten years, because what happens is a policy 422 00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 1: like gascones over time. It takes time, but eventually there 423 00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:25,320 Speaker 1: are more bad guys right there their sentences and early 424 00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:31,040 Speaker 1: they're not prosecuted or their sentences are shorter. So eventually 425 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:34,800 Speaker 1: there's a critical massive bad guys walking around, and it 426 00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:37,000 Speaker 1: takes a few years to build up. But once it 427 00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:41,560 Speaker 1: builds up, now you have a significantly higher rate. So 428 00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:44,640 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter if there's two less rapes this year 429 00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:48,840 Speaker 1: than that year, like two less rapes in twenty twenty 430 00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:52,240 Speaker 1: three than twenty twenty two. What matters is it's double 431 00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:55,280 Speaker 1: the number of rapes from ten years ago. Yeah, he 432 00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:59,040 Speaker 1: pointed out aggravated assaults the five years before Gascon, there 433 00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:01,840 Speaker 1: was eleven thousand, nine and twenty one, about twenty four 434 00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:04,480 Speaker 1: hundred a year. The last five years of Gascon's term 435 00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:08,200 Speaker 1: jump to thirteen thousand or twenty six hundred per year. 436 00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:12,320 Speaker 1: And so what the La Times does in San Francisco 437 00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:15,960 Speaker 1: Chronicle and many news agencies do. They're run by woke people. 438 00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:19,600 Speaker 1: They're run by young, woke people who got infected with 439 00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:22,199 Speaker 1: the only virus that's worse than COVID, and it's the 440 00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:25,320 Speaker 1: woke virus, and it's like an amba. It eats at 441 00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:31,000 Speaker 1: their brains and they're engaging in very selective statistical manipulation 442 00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:35,280 Speaker 1: to try to shut everybody up. And they know that 443 00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:38,080 Speaker 1: the comeback is going to be complicated. How many numbers 444 00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:40,119 Speaker 1: did we just have to spew it? You? Do you 445 00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:43,679 Speaker 1: remember any of them? No, let me just tell you 446 00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:46,919 Speaker 1: the shorthand version of this. The rapes in San Francisco 447 00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:49,240 Speaker 1: are double every year than they were ten years ago, 448 00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:56,800 Speaker 1: from pre gascone to post gascone, ten years double of rapes. 449 00:25:56,880 --> 00:25:59,520 Speaker 1: That's what you gotta know. But you try, you try 450 00:25:59,560 --> 00:26:01,879 Speaker 1: to fight them with numbers the way they fight you 451 00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:04,119 Speaker 1: with numbers, and you end up with a big soup. 452 00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:07,040 Speaker 1: Of numbers that nobody can follow, and that's what they 453 00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:09,120 Speaker 1: want to do. You'll walk away saying, oh, I guess 454 00:26:09,160 --> 00:26:11,639 Speaker 1: the crime isn't that bad. Maybe it's just the media 455 00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:14,840 Speaker 1: hyping it, which we all agree happens a lot, right. 456 00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:18,880 Speaker 1: We all think the media hypes bad news, selectively covers 457 00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:22,520 Speaker 1: things just to scare us. That does go on. But 458 00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:25,280 Speaker 1: if you spend a little time looking into the details 459 00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:27,600 Speaker 1: of the numbers, it's like, no, it is much worse 460 00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:30,760 Speaker 1: in San Francisco than it was ten years ago. But 461 00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:34,480 Speaker 1: as we pointed out yesterday, if you allow just the 462 00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:38,600 Speaker 1: quality of life to degrade, any violent crime is going 463 00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:42,199 Speaker 1: to get exaggerated by people because they're like, see, that's 464 00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:46,160 Speaker 1: what happens when you allow things to get this bad, 465 00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:49,400 Speaker 1: and you allow so many drug addicts on the street 466 00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:52,040 Speaker 1: and homeless people stagging around. Sure most of them aren't 467 00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:54,200 Speaker 1: going to beat you in the head and rob you, 468 00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:58,240 Speaker 1: but what it does happen, it gets amplified because that's 469 00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:00,840 Speaker 1: the environment you live in. And if you allow it's 470 00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:02,879 Speaker 1: the opposite of people who's saying that never happens in 471 00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:05,600 Speaker 1: this neighborhood of shooting, Oh my god, we've never had that. 472 00:27:05,640 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 1: This is such a great neighborhood. San Francisco's the opposite. Now, 473 00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:12,560 Speaker 1: everybody's expecting this crap because of how far it's too dropped. 474 00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:17,480 Speaker 1: If you let thousands of homeless people wander around and 475 00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:21,280 Speaker 1: they're whacked out on drugs or they've got severe mental illnesses, 476 00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:25,280 Speaker 1: every one of those guys has a sex drive. These 477 00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:29,680 Speaker 1: people aren't dating, they're not asking girls out. They are 478 00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:33,320 Speaker 1: sexually assaulting and raping when they get the urge. What 479 00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:35,000 Speaker 1: do you think those on a lot of these are 480 00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:37,919 Speaker 1: young guys, they're in their twenties and thirties, what do 481 00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:39,760 Speaker 1: you think when they get their edge they're gonna do. 482 00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:44,720 Speaker 1: They're gonna jump a woman and and and violator violently. 483 00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:50,159 Speaker 1: That's what they're gonna do. That's almost never considered and discussed. 484 00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:53,560 Speaker 1: That's why the rapes are up, because you have all 485 00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:57,320 Speaker 1: these unhinged men who no longer have a place to 486 00:27:57,359 --> 00:28:01,879 Speaker 1: take their desires because they're uncivilized. They can't develop a 487 00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:05,360 Speaker 1: normal human relationship and have a normal sexual relationship, so 488 00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:09,600 Speaker 1: they're just gonna savagely attack people like wild animals. We 489 00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:12,119 Speaker 1: got more coming up. John and Ken kf I am 490 00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:15,280 Speaker 1: six forty.

Yeah. 497 00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:47,080 Speaker 1: What did I refer to as she's just a load? Well, 498 00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:50,120 Speaker 1: it's a progressive load. She's worse than a load. Listen 499 00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:54,600 Speaker 1: to this. They dug up her divorce papers, and her 500 00:28:54,680 --> 00:28:58,320 Speaker 1: ex husband, Matthew Hoffman, said in court filings about a 501 00:28:58,360 --> 00:29:02,360 Speaker 1: decade ago that Kate Porter once smashed a glass coffee 502 00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:05,720 Speaker 1: pot on the counter because she didn't think their house 503 00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:09,680 Speaker 1: was clean enough. He accused her of dumping a bowl 504 00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:14,120 Speaker 1: of steaming mashed potatoes on his head, burning his scalp. 505 00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:18,280 Speaker 1: She accused him of being an effing idiot and effing incompetent. 506 00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:20,800 Speaker 1: She wouldn't let me have a cell phone because she said, 507 00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:23,520 Speaker 1: you're too effing dumb to operate it, and she would 508 00:29:23,520 --> 00:29:26,520 Speaker 1: throw twice books and other objects around when she was angry. 509 00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:30,080 Speaker 1: She would clot and scratch her arms and say and said, 510 00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:32,240 Speaker 1: they'd say to me, look what you made me do? 511 00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:38,320 Speaker 1: But dumping mashed potatoes on his head? This sounds toxic? 512 00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:44,080 Speaker 1: How long long ago to get to bus? It says 513 00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:46,440 Speaker 1: about a decade ago. Oh, it is a while ago. 514 00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:49,440 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not forgiving her, but it's a while ago. Yeah, 515 00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:51,920 Speaker 1: but it's she was young and immature. It was mashed 516 00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:56,080 Speaker 1: potatoes on her head, on his head. Wow, she wasn't 517 00:29:56,120 --> 00:30:03,040 Speaker 1: young and immature. She's almost fifty. I'm just did for fun. Yeah, okay, 518 00:30:03,120 --> 00:30:05,920 Speaker 1: good this comes out Now, she's been in Congress for years. 519 00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:07,600 Speaker 1: They throw this out there? Whence he was running the 520 00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:10,720 Speaker 1: first time? The Daily Mail dug up the divorce the 521 00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:14,800 Speaker 1: Daily Mail? Yeah, did you see the Daily Mail? I 522 00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:16,160 Speaker 1: was gonna do this later, but I was mentioned it 523 00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:18,400 Speaker 1: right now because you and I would know better than 524 00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:23,240 Speaker 1: rapidly growing homeless encampment spring up near LA's celebrity filled 525 00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:27,240 Speaker 1: Beverly Hills neighborhood. Now they're talking about tents near the 526 00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:32,240 Speaker 1: Beverly Center. Is that really? Is that part of LA? 527 00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:35,560 Speaker 1: This is borderline here? This is so they're saying Beverly 528 00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:37,960 Speaker 1: Grove there include that's not Beverly Hills. No, this is 529 00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:40,360 Speaker 1: somebody who wrote this. Maybe they wrote this in London 530 00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:43,400 Speaker 1: and they don't really know the layout because because they 531 00:30:43,400 --> 00:30:46,200 Speaker 1: say Santa Monica is the dividing Santa Monica Boulevard is 532 00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:50,040 Speaker 1: the dividing line between the hills, Beverly Hills and nearby 533 00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:53,360 Speaker 1: Beverly Grove where there are clusters of tents. No, Sant, 534 00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:55,360 Speaker 1: we know that Beverly Grove neighborhoods awful. That's why that 535 00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:58,120 Speaker 1: poor man was stabbed in his own backyard. Santa neighborhood 536 00:30:58,120 --> 00:31:03,280 Speaker 1: of Los Angeles. Santa Monica Boulevard is an east west road. Right, 537 00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:09,640 Speaker 1: the dividing line would be a north south road, so 538 00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:14,440 Speaker 1: this is incorrect. The scenes were captured along San Vicente Boulevard, 539 00:31:14,480 --> 00:31:18,360 Speaker 1: near the upscale Beverly Center's shopping mall where celebrities shop, 540 00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:21,280 Speaker 1: including Paris Hill did in Victoria Peckham. The way they 541 00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:23,360 Speaker 1: write these stories is to really get people in whose 542 00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:27,120 Speaker 1: celebrities go there, and there's almost people nearby, because this 543 00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:29,160 Speaker 1: is the most widely read news site in the world 544 00:31:29,960 --> 00:31:32,560 Speaker 1: I know, and I like to point out when they're inaccurate, 545 00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:35,640 Speaker 1: because sometimes they do exaggerate to get you to click. Oh, 546 00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:38,920 Speaker 1: and we have told you and we've repeated this. Beverly 547 00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:42,760 Speaker 1: Hills doesn't tolerate this. I'm not saying there's nobody camped 548 00:31:42,760 --> 00:31:45,240 Speaker 1: out in Beverly Hills homeless, but what you don't see 549 00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:47,400 Speaker 1: what you see in La there. We just drove through 550 00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:51,200 Speaker 1: it the other night and along Santa Monica Boulevard specifically, 551 00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:54,400 Speaker 1: And no, they don't have any homeless. This is likely 552 00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:58,000 Speaker 1: in LA near the border, and Beverly Hills can't control it. Yeah, 553 00:31:58,000 --> 00:31:59,520 Speaker 1: this is the problem that Culver City has had, even 554 00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:02,040 Speaker 1: though Culver Cities had more problems since the city council 555 00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:04,840 Speaker 1: changed there. But same thing. They border LA and you 556 00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:07,520 Speaker 1: can see it's right there on their own near their properties. 557 00:32:07,560 --> 00:32:11,960 Speaker 1: This is cheap clickbait because it says photos reveal tarps, 558 00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:16,920 Speaker 1: shopping carts, mattresses and loose bedding next two busy junctions 559 00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:19,840 Speaker 1: and on the sidewalks of the wealthy suburbs. So it's 560 00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:23,400 Speaker 1: next to it because San Va Side Boulevard is in 561 00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:26,480 Speaker 1: Los Angeles, it's the other Sava Cente Boulevard, not the 562 00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:29,360 Speaker 1: one that right. And they're trying to get people a 563 00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:31,600 Speaker 1: gas that the homeless problem is growing and now it's 564 00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:34,000 Speaker 1: going to take over wealthy Beverly Hill. It's been in 565 00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:38,240 Speaker 1: that section for years, that's right, right, So somebody just 566 00:32:38,480 --> 00:32:41,200 Speaker 1: shot a picture, You're right, some reporter from UK it 567 00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:46,760 Speaker 1: juices juices, I think, yeah, because look at this in January, 568 00:32:46,760 --> 00:32:50,080 Speaker 1: the affluent Sherman Oaks neighborhood just north the Beverly Hills. 569 00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:52,920 Speaker 1: Would that be true or is there kind of a wait? 570 00:32:53,280 --> 00:32:56,120 Speaker 1: Made national headlines after three people died on its streets 571 00:32:56,120 --> 00:32:57,680 Speaker 1: in just one week, and we do know about that. 572 00:32:57,720 --> 00:33:00,160 Speaker 1: We talked about the three homeless people found dead in 573 00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:04,040 Speaker 1: Sherman Oaks. But they're making it sound like this was 574 00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:06,200 Speaker 1: another pleasant place that got taken over by Sherman Oaks 575 00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:09,000 Speaker 1: has had problems for years with well. Beverly Hills is 576 00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:12,280 Speaker 1: surrounded by the city of Los Angeles mostly and a 577 00:33:12,440 --> 00:33:16,200 Speaker 1: borders West Hollywood, So everything that happens in Los Angeles 578 00:33:17,280 --> 00:33:22,680 Speaker 1: is going to be right next to Beverly Hills because 579 00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:26,640 Speaker 1: it's embedded inside LA. Yes, I mean, I'm on the 580 00:33:26,720 --> 00:33:30,720 Speaker 1: lookout for this too. Even though I appreciate that there 581 00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:33,880 Speaker 1: are media outlets that cover the problem as it really is, 582 00:33:34,160 --> 00:33:36,400 Speaker 1: I also don't like to be taken That's what I 583 00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:39,440 Speaker 1: call this being taken trying to be a dupe because 584 00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:42,240 Speaker 1: you're into this topic and LA's degrading on its homeless 585 00:33:42,240 --> 00:33:44,880 Speaker 1: doesn't crime everywhere. There's another example of that. It's Beverly 586 00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:47,640 Speaker 1: Hills is going downhill and I don't like to be taken. Okay, 587 00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:50,480 Speaker 1: Well it's going to get a lot lot worse. I 588 00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:53,280 Speaker 1: don't know if you heard this story. Jonathan Turley is 589 00:33:53,320 --> 00:33:56,640 Speaker 1: an attorney and a law professor and he's on Fox 590 00:33:56,680 --> 00:33:59,640 Speaker 1: News a lot as a commentator, and he told this 591 00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:01,680 Speaker 1: story and I heard him tell it on the air 592 00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:06,080 Speaker 1: on Fox that there was some professor who wanted to 593 00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:08,600 Speaker 1: do some kind of a bit of research and he 594 00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:12,440 Speaker 1: was looking for how many how many attorneys have evolved 595 00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:16,719 Speaker 1: in sex harassment cases, like committed sex harassment. So he 596 00:34:17,440 --> 00:34:23,839 Speaker 1: had an AI software program go Look and see, and 597 00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:27,440 Speaker 1: the AI thing made up an article. And what AI 598 00:34:27,600 --> 00:34:31,000 Speaker 1: does is it scans the Internet and grabs all kinds 599 00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:34,480 Speaker 1: of information in a very rapid way, and it puts 600 00:34:34,520 --> 00:34:37,280 Speaker 1: together an article for you. So it created an article 601 00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:40,560 Speaker 1: about these attorneys it had found online who had committed 602 00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:44,680 Speaker 1: sex harassment, and inexplicably through Jonathan Turley into the mix. 603 00:34:46,719 --> 00:34:49,359 Speaker 1: And that didn't sit well with and it had these 604 00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:54,000 Speaker 1: these these crimes he'd committed, and it included a source 605 00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:57,359 Speaker 1: article from I believe the Washington Post, like they were 606 00:34:57,480 --> 00:34:59,840 Speaker 1: using that as the original source. But they made up 607 00:34:59,840 --> 00:35:03,920 Speaker 1: that article too, so like the algorithm had gone haywire, 608 00:35:04,160 --> 00:35:07,239 Speaker 1: and he's going to National TV. They say, no, there 609 00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:10,160 Speaker 1: is no story in the Washington Post. No, I didn't 610 00:35:10,200 --> 00:35:14,560 Speaker 1: do this. No, And then I hear that there's all 611 00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:18,480 Speaker 1: these artificial intelligence fake photographs going around. Now, apparently there 612 00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:20,319 Speaker 1: was a one. There was one the other day. I 613 00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:22,800 Speaker 1: didn't see this, but it was of the Pope wearing 614 00:35:22,840 --> 00:35:26,839 Speaker 1: some kind of jacket, and it fooled everybody around the world. Oh, 615 00:35:27,120 --> 00:35:29,560 Speaker 1: and here about that one. I heard a guy on 616 00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:32,279 Speaker 1: the Business channel today, and he's got a company and 617 00:35:32,360 --> 00:35:34,319 Speaker 1: they want to try to fight this by coming up 618 00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:38,880 Speaker 1: with some technology where you could tell if a photo 619 00:35:39,040 --> 00:35:41,280 Speaker 1: or a news story is authentic, like if it comes 620 00:35:41,600 --> 00:35:44,920 Speaker 1: really from a legitimate news source or a leg it's 621 00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:48,000 Speaker 1: a legitimate photograph. Yeah, I kind of put a watermark 622 00:35:48,080 --> 00:35:51,319 Speaker 1: on it, right, a technological watermark on it. But in 623 00:35:51,480 --> 00:35:55,359 Speaker 1: any event, there is gonna be so much fake stuff now. Oh, 624 00:35:55,480 --> 00:35:58,560 Speaker 1: they called the deep fake videos. Yes, those apparently reporting 625 00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:01,640 Speaker 1: right wasn't there one supposedly of Trump being purple walk 626 00:36:01,760 --> 00:36:04,120 Speaker 1: or something, or well they've been around for a fake 627 00:36:04,200 --> 00:36:06,200 Speaker 1: mug shot of him, or they've been around for a 628 00:36:06,239 --> 00:36:08,319 Speaker 1: few years, but he's take a lot of time to 629 00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:10,759 Speaker 1: put them together and they would come out crudely, you know, 630 00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:13,520 Speaker 1: like crude photoshop. Yeah, you can tell something now. It's 631 00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:17,759 Speaker 1: something that you can do increasingly, almost instantly, and it's 632 00:36:18,120 --> 00:36:22,359 Speaker 1: you can't tell the difference.
