WEBVTT - Buck’s First Thoughts - Reckless Rhetoric Leads To Riots 0:00:00.440 --> 0:00:03.240 This is Buck's first thoughts. The news you need to 0:00:03.240 --> 0:00:05.840 get for your day in forty five minutes. Make sure 0:00:05.880 --> 0:00:08.520 you subscribe on the iHeart app or wherever you get 0:00:08.560 --> 0:00:13.760 your podcasts. I really do think it's depressing that we 0:00:13.840 --> 0:00:17.920 all expect things to just get worse in Minneapolis, and 0:00:18.079 --> 0:00:21.360 we expect that this will spread to other cities. We 0:00:21.400 --> 0:00:25.479 should be able to have a national conversation or at 0:00:25.560 --> 0:00:28.720 least have some kind of understanding that we the American 0:00:28.760 --> 0:00:33.240 people all want justice and that there needs to be 0:00:33.960 --> 0:00:38.320 a cooling of passions and tempers here because a lot 0:00:38.360 --> 0:00:41.199 of innocent people are going to get hurt otherwise. But instead, 0:00:41.280 --> 0:00:44.879 it's just it seems so clear that the wave of 0:00:44.920 --> 0:00:47.479 mayhem and anarchy is just going to continue to build up, 0:00:48.000 --> 0:00:52.360 and the Democrat demagoguery around all this is just going 0:00:52.440 --> 0:00:55.720 to get worse. But you know, these days, what you 0:00:55.760 --> 0:01:01.360 see online is so already curated in ski because the 0:01:01.400 --> 0:01:04.160 big tech sensors are making sure that you can only 0:01:04.160 --> 0:01:07.920 say certain things, and everything that you do online is 0:01:08.000 --> 0:01:10.840 public in a sense, right. So tech has become so 0:01:10.920 --> 0:01:13.240 advanced now that if you're using your PC your computer 0:01:13.360 --> 0:01:17.000 anyplace and you're accessing public WiFi, what you're doing online, 0:01:17.000 --> 0:01:19.000 what you're doing on your computer. It's just as easy 0:01:19.040 --> 0:01:21.520 to see by someone else at the right technology as 0:01:21.560 --> 0:01:23.720 you're seeing it yourself. Kind of takes away the whole 0:01:23.720 --> 0:01:26.120 notion of what a personal computer or PC should be. 0:01:26.520 --> 0:01:30.280 Your activities, your data may no longer really be personal, 0:01:30.560 --> 0:01:33.760 right the bad guys can get to it.

They surrounded the police 0:02:25.960 --> 0:02:30.079 station in Brooklyn Center. If you've seen the photos of it, 0:02:30.200 --> 0:02:32.560 if you see what's going on here, it looks like 0:02:32.600 --> 0:02:38.320 they're prepared for a protracted siege. You have law enforcement 0:02:38.320 --> 0:02:42.000 officers that have nothing to do with the specific incident 0:02:42.560 --> 0:02:46.680 of the shooting, the killing of Dante Wright, who are 0:02:46.720 --> 0:02:51.640 being attacked by angry people in a mob Antifa self 0:02:51.680 --> 0:02:56.960 described Antifa members now showing up. This is a litmatch 0:02:57.240 --> 0:03:02.200 thrown into a tinderbox sitting atop a big pool of gasoline. 0:03:02.240 --> 0:03:07.360 This is a highly combustible situation right now, and everyone 0:03:07.440 --> 0:03:09.680 needs to just take a step back and think about 0:03:09.720 --> 0:03:13.639 what's really going on here. The city of Minneapolis has 0:03:13.680 --> 0:03:18.040 already been through far too much, and the rest of 0:03:18.080 --> 0:03:20.919 the country has dealt with the reverberations. As you recall, 0:03:21.120 --> 0:03:25.400 last summer, there were b LM protests that broke out 0:03:25.760 --> 0:03:29.440 across the country, and it needs to be said more 0:03:29.720 --> 0:03:32.119 more people need to know this, need to hear this 0:03:33.040 --> 0:03:35.400 that in a year of a pandemic where we had 0:03:35.480 --> 0:03:40.320 lockdowns and we had people interacting less, far fewer people 0:03:40.360 --> 0:03:44.320 than in living memory, going to bars and restaurants and 0:03:44.480 --> 0:03:48.240 subways and being out in public places, so you should 0:03:48.320 --> 0:03:52.640 expect that the violence rate in the country would be far, 0:03:52.800 --> 0:03:56.119 far lower than in previous years. Instead, what we had 0:03:56.240 --> 0:04:00.880 was a massive spike arise of murders and other violent 0:04:00.880 --> 0:04:05.360 crimes and including rapes, sexual assaults, assault with a deadly 0:04:05.400 --> 0:04:10.200 weapon arise across the country not seen in over twenty years. 0:04:10.280 --> 0:04:13.360 The worst murder rate. They're expecting. They still compile the 0:04:13.480 --> 0:04:15.760 numbers and they'll give us the official date. I believe 0:04:15.800 --> 0:04:20.800 in September, the worst murder rate since nineteen ninety five nationwide. 0:04:21.839 --> 0:04:25.400 And there's one major factor in all of this. The 0:04:25.600 --> 0:04:30.479 George Floyd police incident in Minneapolis, his death, the riots 0:04:30.520 --> 0:04:34.120 that ensued afterwards, the undermining of police, the call through 0:04:34.240 --> 0:04:38.680 defund police, and communities becoming less safe as a result. 0:04:39.040 --> 0:04:44.200 People suffer because of these bad ideas. People suffer because 0:04:44.400 --> 0:04:48.240 of these lies. We all need to understand this. We 0:04:48.360 --> 0:04:51.440 need to be honest about it. I know right now 0:04:51.640 --> 0:04:54.880 that there is that cheap virtue signaling going on all 0:04:54.920 --> 0:04:58.440 over the place by people who live in safe communities, 0:04:58.480 --> 0:05:02.599 who don't know crime from a firsthand experience, and who 0:05:02.680 --> 0:05:07.039 think that standing in solidarity with rioters and looters is 0:05:07.080 --> 0:05:10.760 somehow making anything better. It actually just makes everything worse. 0:05:11.880 --> 0:05:14.440 But the ruling class and the elites, members of the 0:05:14.440 --> 0:05:20.000 Democrat Party, Silicon Valley, corporate America, they are very clear 0:05:20.040 --> 0:05:24.679 and where their sympathies lie. And there's also it seems 0:05:24.880 --> 0:05:28.520 very little willingness to say to people, stop being reckless, 0:05:28.520 --> 0:05:31.640 stop saying things that are not true. People with major platforms. 0:05:32.520 --> 0:05:38.360 Corey Bush, member of Congress, tweeted this out about Officer Potter, 0:05:38.440 --> 0:05:43.320 who has already resigned and who is now facing criminal culpability. 0:05:44.040 --> 0:05:49.520 There have been about fifteen of these taser firearm mistake 0:05:49.600 --> 0:05:53.120 shootings that have occurred over the last decade or so. 0:05:53.120 --> 0:05:56.919 So this has happened before, and in most of the 0:05:56.960 --> 0:06:00.000 cases there was no criminal charge, especially if the person 0:06:00.040 --> 0:06:02.880 and if no one was killed. In a couple of 0:06:02.920 --> 0:06:06.800 cases there have been criminal charges. An Officer Potter may 0:06:06.880 --> 0:06:10.200 very well get an involuntary manslaughter charge as a result, 0:06:10.800 --> 0:06:17.120 but that's already in process. Right there. There is an 0:06:17.200 --> 0:06:20.839 accountability that is going on here that will never be 0:06:20.960 --> 0:06:24.640 true justice in the sense that you can't bring back Dante, 0:06:24.800 --> 0:06:27.120 right there's nothing to bring him back to stop that 0:06:27.200 --> 0:06:31.200 tragic accident from happening. But here's what Cory Bush. Remember 0:06:31.240 --> 0:06:34.159 the House representative said about all this that she would 0:06:34.200 --> 0:06:37.200 rather she tweeted this. The twenty six year veteran cop, 0:06:37.240 --> 0:06:40.000 former president of the police union doesn't know the difference 0:06:40.000 --> 0:06:42.920 between a taser and a gun. And you say more 0:06:43.000 --> 0:06:46.279 training would have fixed this, Nah, But I bet you 0:06:46.279 --> 0:06:49.600 would have known the difference if Dante wasn't a black boy, 0:06:50.000 --> 0:06:53.920 or if he was her loved one. And quote that's 0:06:53.960 --> 0:06:59.880 from a representative, Cory Bush. That is a in sight 0:07:00.760 --> 0:07:06.200 unfair and deeply unhelpful thing to say. Right now, there 0:07:06.279 --> 0:07:10.520 is absolutely no evidence whatsoever of racial animus in this incident. 0:07:11.120 --> 0:07:13.960 In fact, if anything, what we see on video is 0:07:14.000 --> 0:07:16.840 someone who is clearly trying to do one thing, makes 0:07:16.840 --> 0:07:20.760 an awful mistake that she is responsible for, and then 0:07:21.000 --> 0:07:25.520 realizes the error that she's just committed and that the 0:07:25.600 --> 0:07:28.440 tragedy that ensued, and knows that it's too late and 0:07:28.480 --> 0:07:32.239 she can't take that bullet back. But this has happened 0:07:32.280 --> 0:07:35.880 before the timing of this, I mean beyond just the 0:07:35.880 --> 0:07:37.880 fact that it's a tragedy in and of itself, but 0:07:37.920 --> 0:07:42.040 the timing of this right before we're expected to hear 0:07:42.120 --> 0:07:45.480 about the George Floyd verdict. I mean it rather the 0:07:45.480 --> 0:07:48.640 Derek Chauvin verdict about the death of George Floyd, which 0:07:48.680 --> 0:07:51.960 is next week. I mean the jury could be deliberating 0:07:51.960 --> 0:07:54.400 as soon as next week. Right now, it would be 0:07:54.480 --> 0:07:58.040 hard to think of a more tense situation. And people 0:07:58.200 --> 0:08:02.360 who have platforms, people who have power here in the 0:08:02.440 --> 0:08:08.240 national conversation, should use it responsibly. But we shouldn't expect 0:08:08.280 --> 0:08:12.720 that to happen, not with today's Democrat party. We've got 0:08:12.760 --> 0:08:15.880 an open border, we've got out of control spending, we've 0:08:15.880 --> 0:08:19.119 got real fears of inflation. People are starting to wise 0:08:19.240 --> 0:08:22.880 up to the fact that the Faucii consensus is never 0:08:22.960 --> 0:08:25.240 going to just let us go back to normal. That 0:08:25.280 --> 0:08:27.480 they're not even really thinking there is such a thing 0:08:27.480 --> 0:08:30.280 as everyone just stops wearing masks and lives their lives, 0:08:30.280 --> 0:08:32.640 that they're not going to give up that control. People 0:08:32.640 --> 0:08:35.839 are starting to see through this Biden administration and so 0:08:35.880 --> 0:08:39.000 what do they want here? That's right, an issue of 0:08:39.240 --> 0:08:42.760 racial justice according to the left, to rally around to 0:08:42.880 --> 0:08:46.720 make it seem like there is a righteous cause for 0:08:46.880 --> 0:08:49.480 the left, when in this case and this reality, what 0:08:49.520 --> 0:08:54.040 they're going to do is just create excuses for more destruction, violence, 0:08:54.080 --> 0:08:57.280 and anarchy in the streets. What was better as a 0:08:57.320 --> 0:09:01.960 result of BLM riots lad Year? What improved? Oh, they 0:09:02.360 --> 0:09:04.960 got the main demand, which was defunding of police in 0:09:05.040 --> 0:09:09.559 some cities, and crime sword and people died and misery spread. 0:09:11.080 --> 0:09:14.920 It's very straightforward. The cops are not the problem, all right. 0:09:14.960 --> 0:09:17.640 We have to be adults in America. We have to 0:09:17.679 --> 0:09:20.120 be willing to say things that are obviously true. We 0:09:20.240 --> 0:09:24.640 have to fight this effort to shut down your ability 0:09:24.720 --> 0:09:28.559 to observe what you know to be true. There is 0:09:28.640 --> 0:09:33.000 a war on observation going on right now. You can't 0:09:33.120 --> 0:09:36.800 see what's actually true and not true about lockdowns and 0:09:36.920 --> 0:09:39.320 vaccine policies and all the rest of it. Shut up 0:09:39.320 --> 0:09:42.840 and do what you're told you can't see and come 0:09:42.880 --> 0:09:45.520 to your own conclusions about how crime is getting worse 0:09:45.559 --> 0:09:49.440 and how BLM activists by million dollar mansions for themselves 0:09:49.440 --> 0:09:52.040 while they're actually supposed to be, you know, helping poor 0:09:52.840 --> 0:09:56.320 communities and dealing with police relations. Right you're not allowed 0:09:56.360 --> 0:10:00.440 to notice these things. You're told what to think, and 0:10:00.480 --> 0:10:03.199 if you disagree, you're shouted down. They're not even trying 0:10:03.240 --> 0:10:06.760 to convince you of anything anymore. And you're certainly not 0:10:06.800 --> 0:10:10.320 supposed to notice that BLM as a movement has blood 0:10:10.320 --> 0:10:12.160 on its hands. You look at what's happened over the 0:10:12.240 --> 0:10:15.160 last year, over the last twelve months, and because of 0:10:15.200 --> 0:10:18.640 the defunding of police, because of the change in perception 0:10:18.679 --> 0:10:22.120 about community police relations and the fact that law enforcement 0:10:22.320 --> 0:10:25.600 does not feel backed up in their jobs, more people 0:10:25.679 --> 0:10:29.240 are dead than one otherwise be more people have suffered. 0:10:30.240 --> 0:10:34.240 And what exactly is gained by all this defund police 0:10:34.280 --> 0:10:36.839 which I know Ben and Jerry's, the ice cream company, 0:10:36.880 --> 0:10:40.240 has now said that they want to abolish police. Look, 0:10:40.280 --> 0:10:42.960 they're a bunch of morons who have done far too 0:10:43.080 --> 0:10:46.240 much to push type two diabetes on the country. Okay, 0:10:46.679 --> 0:10:49.440 by the way, boycott them. Let me just throw that 0:10:49.440 --> 0:10:53.199 out there right now. Donat that ice cream. If every 0:10:53.240 --> 0:10:57.480 person who had a rational view of America in the country, 0:10:58.120 --> 0:11:01.439 who was center right said I'm not going to buy 0:11:01.400 --> 0:11:03.679 anywhere Ben and Jerry's, they may actually feel that a 0:11:03.720 --> 0:11:06.280 little bit. They may actually realize shut up and make 0:11:06.400 --> 0:11:10.080 my you know, Oreo cookie swirl or whatever it is. 0:11:10.120 --> 0:11:12.160 Whatever they make, I usually can't eat it because they 0:11:12.160 --> 0:11:15.640 have gluten in a lot of their ice cream. That's 0:11:15.679 --> 0:11:19.160 the truth. We need to take action or else this 0:11:19.200 --> 0:11:22.679 stuff continues. Defund the police is moronic. It's a stupid 0:11:22.679 --> 0:11:25.240 thing to say. There are bad people in this country. 0:11:25.640 --> 0:11:30.120 There are bad, violent, destructive people of all races and backgrounds, 0:11:30.440 --> 0:11:33.640 and we all need to be universally held to account 0:11:33.679 --> 0:11:37.040 for our actions. We cannot break the law, we become 0:11:37.080 --> 0:11:41.360 a lawless society. The foundation upon which everything else is built. 0:11:41.880 --> 0:11:44.960 All of our prosperity and all of good fun stuff 0:11:45.000 --> 0:11:47.240 out there, and all the systems that we benefit from 0:11:47.240 --> 0:11:49.640 every day, they all start to crumble if we don't 0:11:49.640 --> 0:11:52.800 have rule of law and we are all responsible as individuals, 0:11:52.800 --> 0:11:57.199 as human beings for our actions. There is no license 0:11:57.280 --> 0:12:00.520 to loot or riot or attack. And getting rid of 0:12:00.640 --> 0:12:04.679 cops is the dumbest thing I have ever heard in 0:12:04.679 --> 0:12:07.760 a public policy debate. It's honestly the stupidest thing I've 0:12:07.760 --> 0:12:10.760 ever heard. What are we going to do? Then? We're 0:12:10.760 --> 0:12:14.480 gonna start sending in social workers? Have they thought this through? 0:12:15.120 --> 0:12:17.880 Do they think that unarmed social workers are going to 0:12:17.960 --> 0:12:22.240 want to be involved in violent domestic disputes? You're going 0:12:22.280 --> 0:12:26.320 to send in a social worker if somebody's calling the 0:12:26.360 --> 0:12:28.959 police because they're worried that there could be a drive 0:12:29.040 --> 0:12:31.600 by in their neighborhood. I'm glad the social worker will 0:12:31.640 --> 0:12:33.920 be there to say, hey, let's all be nice to 0:12:33.960 --> 0:12:36.280 each other while the bullets are flying over their heads. 0:12:38.400 --> 0:12:41.040 Could it be any dumber? No, But this is where 0:12:41.040 --> 0:12:47.319 the Democrat Party is now, reckless demagoguery, brainwashing and stupidity 0:12:47.320 --> 0:12:50.280 on a national scale to pretend they care so much 0:12:50.320 --> 0:12:55.480 about minority communities. You know, all these MSNBC anchors who 0:12:55.520 --> 0:12:58.400 are millionaires, who live in very safe areas, who send 0:12:58.400 --> 0:13:01.040 their kids to private schools, they're the first ones to 0:13:01.080 --> 0:13:02.840 tell you, Oh, but you know, we don't need so 0:13:02.960 --> 0:13:06.079 much police. Really, they should spend a few nights in 0:13:06.120 --> 0:13:09.160 the highest crime areas of major cities, especially these days, 0:13:09.400 --> 0:13:11.880 and walk around the streets and see how they feel 0:13:11.880 --> 0:13:15.040 about cops after that. I have a feeling it would 0:13:15.120 --> 0:13:18.600 change their tunes. But it's just a bunch of virtue 0:13:18.640 --> 0:13:24.160 signaling cowards, just reveling in their demagoguery. That's what they do, 0:13:24.200 --> 0:13:27.360 and that's what they care about. The full text of 0:13:27.360 --> 0:13:32.120 of of what of your requests? Uh? And UH make 0:13:32.160 --> 0:13:34.520 sure that you know we sit down and and go 0:13:34.679 --> 0:13:38.760 through it and see how we can implement. I don't 0:13:38.800 --> 0:13:45.920 believe that officers need to necessarily have weapons. Uh, you know, 0:13:46.840 --> 0:13:51.319 every time they they're they're making a traffic stop or 0:13:51.559 --> 0:13:57.760 or engaged in situations that don't necessarily call for uh 0:13:58.080 --> 0:14:02.240 for weapons. We know that are other many other jurisdictions 0:14:02.320 --> 0:14:05.760 or even around the world where that is, you know, 0:14:06.040 --> 0:14:09.800 necessarily the case it's not needed. So that's the mayor 0:14:10.480 --> 0:14:14.120 of Brooklyn Center, Minnesota, which, as I understand it has 0:14:14.120 --> 0:14:16.680 been a place that's very much deteriorated to the last 0:14:16.920 --> 0:14:21.280 ten or fifteen years and much higher crime. And this 0:14:21.400 --> 0:14:23.960 is this is someone who has a public platform, has 0:14:24.360 --> 0:14:28.000 public power and trust, who's saying something that is just 0:14:28.720 --> 0:14:33.440 is just shockingly stupid, but also somewhat commonplace these days 0:14:33.440 --> 0:14:36.680 to say things that no rational person would think is 0:14:36.680 --> 0:14:39.360 a good idea. Yes, because we have we've had a 0:14:39.400 --> 0:14:42.440 major surge in violent crime in the country last year. 0:14:43.560 --> 0:14:46.720 Now's the time, in a country with hundreds of millions 0:14:46.760 --> 0:14:49.320 of firearms in circulation already, now's the time to tell 0:14:49.400 --> 0:14:53.560 cops do your jobs, but don't be armed. That's what 0:14:53.600 --> 0:14:57.440 the guys saying. Yeah, for traffic stops, don't don't be armed. Um, 0:14:57.800 --> 0:15:02.400 perhaps the this individual doesn't spend much time on the internet, 0:15:02.400 --> 0:15:06.440 he would know that a New Mexico State Police officer, 0:15:06.600 --> 0:15:10.920 darry And Jarrett, was murdered just over the weekend. You 0:15:10.960 --> 0:15:12.600 didn't You didn't hear a lot about this one. Not 0:15:12.680 --> 0:15:15.200 a lot of solidarity marches, and not a lot of 0:15:15.200 --> 0:15:19.120 people walking around trying to raise awareness about the risk 0:15:19.160 --> 0:15:27.000 that law enforcements. Law enforcement takes. Omar Felix Queva had 0:15:27.160 --> 0:15:32.040 a rifle and executed Officer darry and Jarrett at close 0:15:32.160 --> 0:15:38.800 range during a routine daylight traffic stop. But sure, let's 0:15:38.800 --> 0:15:40.960 give our cops even less of a chance anytime they 0:15:41.000 --> 0:15:44.520 pull over somebody who has an outstanding warrant for a 0:15:44.680 --> 0:15:48.920 violent crime, like, oh, that's right. As we've now found out, 0:15:48.960 --> 0:15:52.640 because the stories are never accurate in the early hours 0:15:52.680 --> 0:15:55.720 about the victims. When BLM decide that somebody is one 0:15:55.760 --> 0:15:57.800 of their hallowed victims, one of the one of the 0:15:57.840 --> 0:16:00.760 martyrs of the movement, the initial story are never really 0:16:01.160 --> 0:16:04.760 true about their background. That that's always the case. There's 0:16:04.840 --> 0:16:06.680 there's this you know, we at first it's usually the 0:16:06.760 --> 0:16:09.120 person's you know, a family man, an honor student and 0:16:09.160 --> 0:16:11.440 everything else. And then when we say, well, hold on 0:16:11.440 --> 0:16:13.600 a second, this person actually, in the case of George Floyd, 0:16:13.640 --> 0:16:16.160 for example, held a gun to a pregnant woman's belly 0:16:16.240 --> 0:16:20.080 during a home invasion. They said, that doesn't matter. Well, 0:16:20.720 --> 0:16:22.800 it mattered when we had all these photos of somebody, 0:16:22.840 --> 0:16:25.480 you know, either in their high school graduation cap and gown, 0:16:26.000 --> 0:16:27.480 or when we're being told that they were an honor 0:16:27.520 --> 0:16:29.960 student or a family man, or a hard working person 0:16:30.080 --> 0:16:32.480 or whatever whatever it is, that's all to be said. 0:16:32.960 --> 0:16:35.200 But then we find out the person either resisted or 0:16:35.240 --> 0:16:38.720 rest had a long criminal history, had a violent criminal history. 0:16:39.000 --> 0:16:42.760 In the case of Dante Right, the individual, this individual 0:16:43.640 --> 0:16:45.280 held a gun to a woman and tried to rob 0:16:45.320 --> 0:16:48.400 eight hundred dollars from her. Okay, that's that, you know, 0:16:48.880 --> 0:16:54.440 arm armed robbery. But if you talk about this so 0:16:54.680 --> 0:16:58.160 you're you're it's a problem and understand this. That doesn't 0:16:58.240 --> 0:17:02.120 change anything about the culpa bill of the officer, Officer Potter, 0:17:02.720 --> 0:17:05.560 but it does affect the narrative and the perception of 0:17:05.560 --> 0:17:08.720 how these events affect society, of how people should view 0:17:08.760 --> 0:17:12.040 these these situations. Same thing where you bring up, you know, 0:17:12.080 --> 0:17:15.679 resisting arrest, it is possible to say, don't resist arrest, Comma, 0:17:15.840 --> 0:17:21.000 and this officer made a terrible mistake. Those are both true. Statements. 0:17:21.040 --> 0:17:24.359 You should not resist arrest, you should not violently fight 0:17:24.400 --> 0:17:28.640 with cops when they're trying to rescue, and you, if 0:17:28.640 --> 0:17:31.520 you're a cop, you gotta be able to discern, even 0:17:31.560 --> 0:17:34.200 in very tense moments, between your taser or your fire 0:17:34.280 --> 0:17:37.240 or or else. You shouldn't be a cop. It's that simple. 0:17:37.640 --> 0:17:38.960 I remember when you know, when I was, when I 0:17:39.000 --> 0:17:42.320 was overseas, it was just on all the basis. I 0:17:42.320 --> 0:17:44.080 mean an a D. If you got an and I 0:17:44.080 --> 0:17:47.200 mean an a D out on the range, accidental discharge, 0:17:47.400 --> 0:17:49.639 an a D. You know, walk into the to the 0:17:49.680 --> 0:17:52.520 dining hall or whatever, if you fired off around by 0:17:52.560 --> 0:17:55.680 accident you or you were going home. Basically you were done, 0:17:56.400 --> 0:17:59.919 even if no one was hurt. So you know, they 0:18:00.119 --> 0:18:02.760 that's the It's a cardinal rule of firearms safety. And 0:18:03.119 --> 0:18:06.800 obviously officer Potters is paying, in our own way, a 0:18:07.960 --> 0:18:11.359 very high price for this. But we're gonna we're gonna 0:18:11.359 --> 0:18:13.919 now disarmed It was defund police. Now it's gonna be 0:18:13.920 --> 0:18:17.040 disarmed police. Who's gonna want to take these jobs? I 0:18:17.080 --> 0:18:18.959 know there's a lot of law enforcement that listens to 0:18:18.960 --> 0:18:23.119 this show all across the country, and I couldn't. I 0:18:23.119 --> 0:18:25.560 couldn't tell them in good in good faith, Yeah, keep 0:18:25.640 --> 0:18:29.160 doing your job, especially if you're in a relatively high 0:18:29.240 --> 0:18:31.080 crime area. You know, I mean, I have I have 0:18:31.200 --> 0:18:34.400 an uncle who is a police officer in south central 0:18:34.640 --> 0:18:37.480 for fifteen years, police officer in south central Los Angeles. 0:18:37.920 --> 0:18:41.600 I'm gonna tell him to walk around without a firearm 0:18:42.119 --> 0:18:44.119 and to go up to people and get involved in 0:18:44.160 --> 0:18:47.440 disputes and pull them over and try to write them 0:18:47.440 --> 0:18:49.080 a ticket and try to you know, one of the 0:18:49.080 --> 0:18:51.760 most dangerous things cops do is in fact, traffic stops. 0:18:52.320 --> 0:18:54.199 But you see the voices out there right now that 0:18:54.280 --> 0:18:56.919 get attention for the Democrat media aren't people who actually 0:18:56.960 --> 0:19:01.160 know anything about law enforcement, about you four incidents. They're 0:19:01.160 --> 0:19:06.000 people that appeal to the masses with their emotions. You know, 0:19:06.040 --> 0:19:09.080 they're They're the people at MSNBC who just oh, they're 0:19:09.119 --> 0:19:14.359 just channeling all this emotion right now, But then they 0:19:14.400 --> 0:19:18.960 say things that end up hurting people when they're implemented. 0:19:19.040 --> 0:19:23.480 There are negative consequences to bad ideas. Something we always 0:19:23.480 --> 0:19:26.600 have to remember. This stuff is not without a cost. 0:19:27.040 --> 0:19:30.159 But the people who bear the cost are not you know, 0:19:30.400 --> 0:19:34.640 wealthy upper middle class journalists or well off or wealthy 0:19:35.160 --> 0:19:40.440 TV news anchors or people who are making pr decisions 0:19:40.480 --> 0:19:44.960 at big corporations. No, they don't pay the price. No. Instead, 0:19:45.040 --> 0:19:47.639 the people that are the most likely to suffer from 0:19:47.720 --> 0:19:50.040 violent crimes in the neighborhoods in the first place, their 0:19:50.080 --> 0:19:53.720 percentages just go up. And when things get worse, and 0:19:53.840 --> 0:19:58.199 that sense of misery and foreboding that exists. And I mean, 0:19:58.240 --> 0:20:00.560 I've I've spent because of my time in the NYPD, 0:20:01.200 --> 0:20:06.919 considerable time in the actual worst neighborhoods in New York City, 0:20:07.440 --> 0:20:09.239 and I can tell you that it feels like a 0:20:09.280 --> 0:20:13.520 different place than the wealthier or even just more run 0:20:13.520 --> 0:20:16.520 of the mill parts in terms of crime of New 0:20:16.600 --> 0:20:20.359 York City. And I wish some of these journos would 0:20:20.400 --> 0:20:22.760 do the same, because maybe they would shut their mouths. 0:20:22.840 --> 0:20:25.439 There's so much you're just not allowed to say about 0:20:25.560 --> 0:20:28.480 COVID and lockdowns. It's very frustrating. As you know, it's 0:20:28.480 --> 0:20:31.800 been one of the things that's made me particularly angry 0:20:32.200 --> 0:20:36.520 at the big tech corporations. I mean, I think I'm 0:20:36.560 --> 0:20:40.680 one of the most vocal anti fauci voices out there, 0:20:40.920 --> 0:20:43.359 and I know there are some others, and I appreciate them. 0:20:43.359 --> 0:20:46.479 By the way, I feel a real solidarity with them. 0:20:46.520 --> 0:20:49.160 But I've got to tell you, the way that big 0:20:49.160 --> 0:20:51.320 tech has weighed in on this stuff, it's just appalling. 0:20:51.359 --> 0:20:54.359 It's awful the way that they've shut down free and 0:20:54.400 --> 0:20:56.880 open exchange of ideas. And you know that if you've 0:20:56.880 --> 0:20:59.480 tried to share your political opinions in general, these days, 0:20:59.600 --> 0:21:02.320 it's really difficult to have a civil conversation. You get 0:21:02.320 --> 0:21:05.600 attacked by trolls, you get swarmed by lunatics. Well that's 0:21:05.600 --> 0:21:08.560 why there's caucus Room dot com.

Caucus Room is made by conservatives for conservatives. 0:21:44.440 --> 0:21:46.560 To get organized and make a difference. Join the Buck 0:21:46.600 --> 0:21:50.320 Sexton Listeners group on caucus room dot com that c 0:21:50.640 --> 0:21:56.040 au cus r oom dot com to interact with other 0:21:56.080 --> 0:22:00.440 listeners just like you Caucus room dot com. Let's talk 0:22:00.440 --> 0:22:02.879 about if you have received the J and J vaccine. 0:22:02.920 --> 0:22:05.480 A lot of folks are probably wondering what should I do, 0:22:05.560 --> 0:22:08.400 what should I look out for. What's your advice to them? Well, 0:22:08.440 --> 0:22:11.960 the first bit of advice is really don't worry very 0:22:12.040 --> 0:22:15.160 much because, just as we've said, it's a very very 0:22:15.280 --> 0:22:18.320 rare event. That's the first thing. The second thing, the 0:22:18.359 --> 0:22:21.760 bracket of time when this occurs was between six and 0:22:21.840 --> 0:22:25.439 thirteen days, so it's between one and two weeks. So 0:22:25.480 --> 0:22:29.840 if you've got your vaccine several weeks ago, then it 0:22:29.840 --> 0:22:32.200 makes it even less likely that you should have any 0:22:32.200 --> 0:22:34.840 concern at all. If you've had it within a few days, 0:22:34.920 --> 0:22:38.920 just stay heads up for symptoms severe headache, abdominal pain, 0:22:39.359 --> 0:22:43.119 chest pain, things like that. But again underscoring Savannah, it 0:22:43.200 --> 0:22:46.720 is a very very rare event, so you don't want 0:22:46.760 --> 0:22:51.159 people who've just received the vaccine to be overly worried 0:22:51.200 --> 0:22:54.600 about this. This is a rare occurrence. The pause is 0:22:54.640 --> 0:22:57.680 just as an abundance of caution to really scope out 0:22:57.720 --> 0:23:01.800 the situation a little bit more closely. The pause is 0:23:01.840 --> 0:23:05.000 an abundance of caution. You know, you got to mitigate 0:23:05.600 --> 0:23:09.960 because there could be a diminution of the parabellic upswing 0:23:10.440 --> 0:23:15.840 of the hypotheses of the Isosceles triangle. And you know, 0:23:15.880 --> 0:23:17.960 I really do feel like sometimes this guy is just 0:23:18.440 --> 0:23:20.640 broke it into a few high school textbooks and wants 0:23:20.640 --> 0:23:22.679 to just throw out a bunch of a bunch of 0:23:22.720 --> 0:23:26.040 science sounding jargon, math and science jargon at us. You know, 0:23:26.800 --> 0:23:31.000 when you have Savannah, you get the shot, and when 0:23:31.040 --> 0:23:35.080 the photosynthesis kicks in and you have the oxo ribo 0:23:35.240 --> 0:23:40.119 nucleic acid that is a part of the overall you 0:23:40.119 --> 0:23:44.359 know Dalwinnian notion of it. Just just blabber right that. 0:23:44.840 --> 0:23:48.159 But people go home, doctor Foucher, You're so smart. Doctor 0:23:48.200 --> 0:23:51.760 Foucher's so smart. He's such a smart man. What are 0:23:51.760 --> 0:23:54.600 we doing? So now it's don't worry. Yesterday was pause 0:23:54.720 --> 0:23:57.000 the vaccine. Now it's don't worry. And I just want 0:23:57.000 --> 0:23:59.400
