Here 19 00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:08,040 Speaker 1: we are twenty four hours later since we came on 20 00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:10,280 Speaker 1: the air, yesterday at two o'clock, and the story was 21 00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:14,280 Speaker 1: rather new, which is the mass shooting in Uvaldi, Texas. 22 00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:18,160 Speaker 1: An eighteen year old killed nineteen children and two teachers. 23 00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:23,200 Speaker 1: The death toll grew through the afternoon and into the evening. 24 00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:25,680 Speaker 1: One weird thing that happened last night. I was watching 25 00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:30,840 Speaker 1: the late news. This all began when Salvador Ramos shot 26 00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:34,360 Speaker 1: his sixty six year old grandmother in the face at 27 00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:37,920 Speaker 1: her home in Uvaldi, and the anchor last night said 28 00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:42,080 Speaker 1: she was dead, announced it and that doesn't seem to 29 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:44,440 Speaker 1: be true from what I'm reading this afternoon, So it's 30 00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:48,240 Speaker 1: kind of weird that happened. Sometimes. Yeah, we had died yesterday. 31 00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:50,960 Speaker 1: For disclosure, I said that she was dead because that's 32 00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 1: what we were told I heard. That shows you the 33 00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:58,920 Speaker 1: rush of information. Can I heard that on many reports 34 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:02,240 Speaker 1: that she was dead, but she isn't dead, but she's 35 00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:05,200 Speaker 1: in very bad shape. Yeah, And of course we found 36 00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:07,280 Speaker 1: out at a press conference a couple of hours ago. 37 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:09,640 Speaker 1: We'll hear more about that coming up after the next 38 00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:13,840 Speaker 1: break that yes, he did post face it was a 39 00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:17,200 Speaker 1: private post. Did we are going to shoot an elementary school? 40 00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:20,320 Speaker 1: Did we not? Though? Call this yesterday? It's the same 41 00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:22,680 Speaker 1: guy again. It's just like the guy in Buffalo and 42 00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:26,239 Speaker 1: a hundred other people. He's going online and telling people 43 00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 1: that he's going to bring guns to school and implying 44 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:31,960 Speaker 1: that he's going to use them and shoot. He's sending 45 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:34,400 Speaker 1: messages to people he knows. I mean, how hard is this? 46 00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:37,400 Speaker 1: But a private post fifteen minutes before who's going to 47 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:41,760 Speaker 1: see it? Um? A private post? Is still all his 48 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:44,639 Speaker 1: friends are going to see it? Yeah? Yeah. The girl 49 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:47,799 Speaker 1: who got the message was checking her face. She was 50 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:52,480 Speaker 1: that's the top. That's all people do. Nobody does anything else. 51 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:56,400 Speaker 1: Maybe he has no friendship. I think Buffalo guy didn't. 52 00:02:56,400 --> 00:03:01,040 Speaker 1: He was talking to strangers and the girl, the the 53 00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 1: girl who in here in La apparently was that was 54 00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:07,640 Speaker 1: a random person who does not know him, but she 55 00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 1: was tagged. She had no idea who it was. Steven said, 56 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:15,360 Speaker 1: you're going to do what? But but she got the 57 00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:19,000 Speaker 1: message that this guy was going to do something along 58 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:21,640 Speaker 1: with the photos of the guns. It doesn't matter that 59 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:25,040 Speaker 1: she doesn't know him personally. Now people have did she 60 00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 1: know he was in Yuvaldi, Texas? If his name is 61 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:32,960 Speaker 1: on Facebook? You can't post something on Facebook without your 62 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:36,080 Speaker 1: name being attached to it. Then it says the name, 63 00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 1: and so you're saying she let us down because she 64 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 1: didn't know. I don't know all the details, but I 65 00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:45,960 Speaker 1: start with that. If you get a post and somebody 66 00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 1: has photos of guns, and because a lot of people 67 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:57,119 Speaker 1: have Internet only relationships, social media relationships, they find each 68 00:03:57,160 --> 00:04:01,080 Speaker 1: other and connect and a thousand different ways. So it's 69 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:04,920 Speaker 1: not unusual to have somebody tagging you or communicating with 70 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:06,480 Speaker 1: you and you've never met I mean, you don't really 71 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:09,160 Speaker 1: know them. That's just what people do. Now. Well, I 72 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:12,320 Speaker 1: think some people would look at that and go what 73 00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:14,800 Speaker 1: is this? And it's so random that you might thinking, well, 74 00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:18,080 Speaker 1: it's got no connection to reality. Let's have it off 75 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:20,480 Speaker 1: with somebody. You know. Yeah, you probably have to make 76 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:23,720 Speaker 1: a move and say hey, start calling people, because it's 77 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:26,279 Speaker 1: like the guy in Buffalo, right, he was communicating on 78 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:29,120 Speaker 1: the discord app and he was inviting people to come 79 00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:31,279 Speaker 1: and watch the shooting. Yeah, that was thirty minutes before 80 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 1: he had fifteen people show up, supposed and none of 81 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:38,920 Speaker 1: the part in, none of them called law enforcement. All right, people, 82 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:40,960 Speaker 1: it's like you said yesterday, people don't want to get involved. No, 83 00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:43,320 Speaker 1: they don't. They don't. What was Steve Bregger's story. They're 84 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:45,719 Speaker 1: not going to save us, no, No, nobody is. But 85 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:49,320 Speaker 1: I'm saying it is public. This is not that complicated 86 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:53,080 Speaker 1: to get a handle on, because nearly all of them 87 00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:56,279 Speaker 1: put out a public warning of some kind. Some number 88 00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:58,720 Speaker 1: of people know this is coming, whether it's an hour 89 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:00,880 Speaker 1: in advance or a day in advance. Answer where this 90 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,560 Speaker 1: is built up over time. Often you find out that 91 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:06,800 Speaker 1: these guys have been sending out messages for quite a while. Now. 92 00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:10,719 Speaker 1: It seems if I was running a school that again, 93 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:14,680 Speaker 1: you pick the one target in every class that you 94 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 1: think is most likely, and then you have somebody looking 95 00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:21,479 Speaker 1: through their social media pages every single day, several times 96 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:27,320 Speaker 1: a day. You know, maybe you have eight grades, four grades, whatever, 97 00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:31,080 Speaker 1: and every day that guy is checked. Because this guy 98 00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:35,440 Speaker 1: wasn't going to school for quite a while. That's a 99 00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 1: bad sign. He's got a mother's a drug addict, he's 100 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:42,480 Speaker 1: got no father. He's fighting with his grandmother and shoots 101 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:45,240 Speaker 1: her in the face. The grandfather who lived with them 102 00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:48,560 Speaker 1: is an ex felon. I mean this is this, I 103 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:50,800 Speaker 1: mean checks and they were all clueless. They all said 104 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 1: they had no idea he had gun. Of course they 105 00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 1: were clue the mother says, I didn't think he was violent. 106 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:59,839 Speaker 1: They're all they're either lying or they're stupid beyond whole reason. 107 00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:04,320 Speaker 1: And this Texas school officials actually used an artificial intelligence 108 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 1: program to monitor students social media postings. And they didn't 109 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,440 Speaker 1: pick this up either. They were part of a program. 110 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:14,599 Speaker 1: The school district participated in a special program to monitor 111 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:18,760 Speaker 1: students social media to possibly stop them mass shooting. That 112 00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:20,840 Speaker 1: didn't work. You, well, it looks like that software as 113 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:23,640 Speaker 1: a bus. Yeah, how about just like use your eyes 114 00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:28,320 Speaker 1: typing the guy's name and use your eyes and do 115 00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:32,840 Speaker 1: some critical thinking, do sim some anticipating. I say this 116 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,479 Speaker 1: only because they're giving out a lot of clues. This 117 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 1: is not out of the blue. This is hiding in 118 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:42,279 Speaker 1: plain sight. People are just chewing and that's fine. You 119 00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:44,120 Speaker 1: don't have to get involved. You don't have to get 120 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:46,719 Speaker 1: your hands dirty if you don't want to. But spare 121 00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:49,360 Speaker 1: me all the sanctimonies. What do we do? How do 122 00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:52,880 Speaker 1: we stop this? This is just a stop it. You 123 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:57,040 Speaker 1: don't want to fix it, because if you started profiling 124 00:06:57,120 --> 00:07:01,400 Speaker 1: and identifying the people who are throwing at all of clues, 125 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 1: you'd get a handle on a lot of these. Maybe 126 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:06,279 Speaker 1: not every one of them, but a lot of them. 127 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:09,960 Speaker 1: You you just start monitoring people. Those who knew him 128 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:13,600 Speaker 1: said he started to get increasingly violent as he became older. 129 00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:16,120 Speaker 1: He was cutting his face up. Okay, there you go. 130 00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 1: Let's okay, because we were talking yesterday, what's the criteria 131 00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 1: for monitoring somebody? How about a guy who cuts his 132 00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 1: face up. Because when you cut your face up, then 133 00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 1: you show up at school, everybody knows. He's like, wow, 134 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 1: look that he cut his face up. All right, I'm 135 00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:32,920 Speaker 1: running a school. It's like, okay, the guy who cut 136 00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:35,200 Speaker 1: his face up. All right, let's let's call him in. 137 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:38,240 Speaker 1: Let's see what's going on here. Nobody, nobody normal does that. 138 00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 1: Violent people do that vi Violent people mutilate themselves, They 139 00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:44,640 Speaker 1: mutilate cats, and then they work their way to the 140 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:48,120 Speaker 1: general public. He walked around in a park with bucks 141 00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:51,040 Speaker 1: and gloves, asking people to fight him and filming it. 142 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:54,200 Speaker 1: He apparently had a job at Wendy's at one point 143 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:57,520 Speaker 1: that he menaced co workers. Do you know who I am? 144 00:07:57,600 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 1: He would be very rude towards the girls at the workplace, 145 00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:04,640 Speaker 1: and they would he would send inappropriate text to the ladies. Yeah. 146 00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:07,400 Speaker 1: Another one he had he had no close friends, and 147 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 1: he had no girl friends obviously, so why is it 148 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,960 Speaker 1: that everybody in his circle rejected him? And I started 149 00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:18,800 Speaker 1: come thinking about this like a theory if you look 150 00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:22,880 Speaker 1: at humanity as as an organism, not just individuals, but 151 00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:26,360 Speaker 1: we as a community or an organism, and this guy's 152 00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:30,720 Speaker 1: a virus and everybody else, all the other cells in 153 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:33,800 Speaker 1: the organism pick up that virus cell. Came in virus cell, 154 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:38,520 Speaker 1: and then they work to isolate and expel the virus. 155 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:42,320 Speaker 1: That's really what happens, and really starting at age five, 156 00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:45,560 Speaker 1: when you have a weird kid, he's like the virus, 157 00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:48,760 Speaker 1: and nobody wants to play with him. People start making 158 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:51,040 Speaker 1: fun of him, and girls don't want to go near him. 159 00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:54,360 Speaker 1: That is the community immune system working and saying this 160 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:56,679 Speaker 1: guy's this guy's not good, he's going to do damage. 161 00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:59,720 Speaker 1: We've got to we've got to separate ourselves here. I 162 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:02,320 Speaker 1: think it's really valuable to look at the kids that 163 00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:05,800 Speaker 1: the whole community, even at age five, is reacting badly too, 164 00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:09,680 Speaker 1: and saying, I wonder if there's something here. It's the 165 00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:13,559 Speaker 1: problem is the people that know this kid and he 166 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:16,559 Speaker 1: ended up being a loaner. They didn't care enough about him, 167 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:18,480 Speaker 1: So they weren't noticing his behavior and they certainly are 168 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 1: not going to report it. It's just that sad. Well, 169 00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:24,840 Speaker 1: that's that's what we Donating parents probably notice everything wrong 170 00:09:24,880 --> 00:09:28,400 Speaker 1: with a child and would probably do anything. Now that 171 00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:32,080 Speaker 1: Buffalo shooters the opposite of this, only because those parents 172 00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:35,040 Speaker 1: have not spoken. They've gone completely. They're like a couple 173 00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:37,960 Speaker 1: of civil engineers from New York State. They've said nothing. 174 00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:42,640 Speaker 1: Whereas this shooting. The grandfather's out there, the mother's out there, 175 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:45,719 Speaker 1: they're all talking about the kids. Well, but I think 176 00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:49,760 Speaker 1: it's the same problem that he was completely ignored by everybody. Yeah, 177 00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:54,520 Speaker 1: usually they're ignored. I mean, I've been around hundreds of 178 00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:58,880 Speaker 1: helicopter parents, you know, for the last twenty years. I 179 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:01,880 Speaker 1: know what that parenting of. Like, I have not seen 180 00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 1: a helicopter parent involved. And I'm not believe I'm not 181 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:07,400 Speaker 1: advocating helicopter parents, I know, but you haven't seen anything. 182 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:11,640 Speaker 1: I have not seen a kid come from helicopter parents. 183 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:17,679 Speaker 1: Generally they come from non parents. Yeah. Usually this is 184 00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:19,679 Speaker 1: like the Sandy Hook kid. Apparently he just spent a 185 00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:21,720 Speaker 1: lot of time in his bedroom and everybody ignored. Remember 186 00:10:21,720 --> 00:10:24,439 Speaker 1: the Sandy Hook kids playing video games, night and day. Yeah, 187 00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:27,719 Speaker 1: and the mother just went about her life. I mean, 188 00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:30,360 Speaker 1: he began to isolate and get angry. And I told 189 00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:32,439 Speaker 1: you about the weird kid my high school, buffalo kid. 190 00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:34,559 Speaker 1: Because of the pandemic, he isolated himself and he just 191 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:37,760 Speaker 1: looking at stuff online that turned him on about white supremacy. 192 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:39,439 Speaker 1: So did I tell you about the weird kid in 193 00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:41,839 Speaker 1: high school? I think I muchly told you once who 194 00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:46,240 Speaker 1: turned out to be a sex offender. Uh, I think so? Yeah, 195 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:48,200 Speaker 1: that was. There was a weird kid in my school, 196 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:51,280 Speaker 1: my class, and he had a weird last name. I'm 197 00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:52,640 Speaker 1: not going to say the name, but he had a 198 00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:54,600 Speaker 1: weird last name, and he looked weird. He was tall 199 00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:59,200 Speaker 1: and gangly and geeky and and floppy like Mo Howard 200 00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:02,240 Speaker 1: hair from the Three Douges, and you know, just he 201 00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:05,440 Speaker 1: was rejected by there. He was nobody's friend and no girls, right. 202 00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:08,600 Speaker 1: And then a few years later, after high school, I 203 00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:11,840 Speaker 1: heard that he'd gotten arrested. He climbed on a ladder 204 00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 1: and coincidentally, he was looking through the bedroom window of 205 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:18,319 Speaker 1: the girl I took to the prom, which I guess 206 00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:20,960 Speaker 1: is how I found out about it. And he was 207 00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:25,800 Speaker 1: arrested and I had this memory. You know sometimes news 208 00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:29,199 Speaker 1: stories trigger memories, and I thought, was I right about that? John? 209 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:32,400 Speaker 1: Imagine it. I went into this newspaper archive online and 210 00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:35,440 Speaker 1: actually found the stories of him getting arrested and getting 211 00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 1: put in jail. And it's like he was the weird kid. 212 00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:41,440 Speaker 1: And if you would have picked one kid to end 213 00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:43,720 Speaker 1: up on a ladder looking into some girls window to 214 00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:46,720 Speaker 1: see if she was undressing, it would have been that guy. 215 00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:49,160 Speaker 1: I couldn't believe. It's like, oh my god, that is 216 00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:52,560 Speaker 1: the guy. Who else? Would it be? All right? When 217 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:55,959 Speaker 1: we come back, we'll go to San Antonio for ABC News. 218 00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:58,079 Speaker 1: We'll get an update. They did have that news conference 219 00:11:58,080 --> 00:12:00,640 Speaker 1: a couple of hours ago. More to tale has come 220 00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:04,840 Speaker 1: out the shooting in Texas. John Kent CAF There's one 221 00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:07,920 Speaker 1: thing that when we're talking about this in the opening 222 00:12:07,920 --> 00:12:11,040 Speaker 1: hour or two yesterday, that confused us to bid is 223 00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:15,400 Speaker 1: sort of how this horror exploded in Yuvaldi, Texas with 224 00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:17,800 Speaker 1: this eighteen year old gunman. We had learned that he 225 00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:21,200 Speaker 1: shot his grandmother. It looks like after he did that, 226 00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:25,480 Speaker 1: he raced off in his pickup truck and he crashed 227 00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:27,680 Speaker 1: it near the school. And that's when you got a 228 00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:32,400 Speaker 1: police response, including Border Patrol agents who weren't that far away. 229 00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:35,440 Speaker 1: I guess they heard the call and they came too, 230 00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:38,240 Speaker 1: and there was some sort of the word they're using 231 00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:42,319 Speaker 1: his engagement outside the school, but apparently the shooter ran 232 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:44,720 Speaker 1: into the school before they could take him out, and that's, 233 00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:47,040 Speaker 1: of course, where he got himself into a classroom. And 234 00:12:47,120 --> 00:12:49,800 Speaker 1: we learned this morning that all the children that died 235 00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:53,200 Speaker 1: died in one single classroom, nineteen children, most of them 236 00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:57,080 Speaker 1: fourth graders around the age of ten. And eventually a 237 00:12:57,120 --> 00:13:00,000 Speaker 1: Border patrol agent shot this guy dead. It was apparently 238 00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:03,040 Speaker 1: on one of those special units of the Border Patrol 239 00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:07,640 Speaker 1: that deals with these kinds of dangerous situations eventually shot 240 00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:11,880 Speaker 1: him dead. So we're waiting. We're still waiting for ABC News. 241 00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:15,800 Speaker 1: Is that right? What's the status on that? But we're 242 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:19,280 Speaker 1: told not here. We were gonna talk to Dennis Foley. Well, 243 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:23,160 Speaker 1: we can play Beta O'Rourke. Oh my god, you believe this? 244 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:28,000 Speaker 1: Texas is having a governor's race. The Republican nominee is 245 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:32,080 Speaker 1: the incumbent Greg Abbott. The Democratic nominee is the annoying 246 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:36,400 Speaker 1: man who ran from president, the former Congressman Beto O'Rourke. 247 00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:40,880 Speaker 1: He ran for Senate against Ted Cruz lost, then he 248 00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:46,599 Speaker 1: ran for president and went nowhere immediately. And this is 249 00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:48,600 Speaker 1: all you need to know. His name is not Betto. 250 00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:51,640 Speaker 1: He called himself that to try to look Latino. Yeah, 251 00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:55,480 Speaker 1: it's into an Irish family. It's Robert Robert Francisan just 252 00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:58,360 Speaker 1: like RFK. Right, he's Irish and he looks vaguely like 253 00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:00,920 Speaker 1: one of the Kennedy's, which is the only reason he's running. 254 00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:03,880 Speaker 1: He's running because he has the old fashioned Kennedy hair 255 00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:10,760 Speaker 1: and he's You know, there's certain guys they run and 256 00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:16,679 Speaker 1: I disagree with their positions, but I understand their appeal. 257 00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:19,720 Speaker 1: I understand why they run. I understand why people vote 258 00:14:19,720 --> 00:14:21,400 Speaker 1: for him. If you happen to agree with that way 259 00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:25,640 Speaker 1: of thinking. This guy completely baffles me. It must just 260 00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:29,440 Speaker 1: be his alleged good looks. I mean, he is such 261 00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:33,760 Speaker 1: an empty headed goof. I mean, he makes Newsome look 262 00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:37,080 Speaker 1: like a genius. I this, but remember a couple of 263 00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:39,120 Speaker 1: years ago. Maybe, yeah, that's right. He was running in 264 00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:42,080 Speaker 1: the twenty twenty Democratic presidential and he said, yes, if 265 00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:43,800 Speaker 1: we have to go door to door and take people's guns, 266 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:46,320 Speaker 1: that's what we're going to do, and then eventually he 267 00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:49,280 Speaker 1: retracted all that. He retracted all that early this year 268 00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:51,720 Speaker 1: because he was running against Greg Abbott in Texas and 269 00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:53,520 Speaker 1: you simply can't have that kind of view and win 270 00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:58,760 Speaker 1: in Texas. No. Well, yeah, let's let's play this clip. 271 00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:01,520 Speaker 1: I guess yeah. He roped the governor's press conference. This 272 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:07,160 Speaker 1: is how it went. Excuse me, excuse me, Sit down, 273 00:15:07,280 --> 00:15:13,520 Speaker 1: you're out You're out of line, and an embarrassment shot 274 00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:16,760 Speaker 1: right now and you're doing nothing, no pleas to get 275 00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:18,920 Speaker 1: it out this into place to talk to the show. 276 00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:23,040 Speaker 1: This is totally predictable. Sure you're out of line, Sure 277 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:27,760 Speaker 1: you're outline. I'm sure you're outline. Please leave the suitorial 278 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,040 Speaker 1: I can't leave. You're a sick son of them would 279 00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:36,520 Speaker 1: come to a deal like this to make a political issue. 280 00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:40,560 Speaker 1: I think this is the police chief or is it 281 00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:48,920 Speaker 1: the uvalde mayor? It's like you, why don't you get 282 00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:54,560 Speaker 1: out of here? He was escorted away. Uh. You could 283 00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:57,720 Speaker 1: call this a brilliant campaign stunt or a stupid one. 284 00:15:57,760 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 1: Looks he wants to make it very clear to Texas vote. 285 00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:02,680 Speaker 1: I'm on the other side of these people, and that's 286 00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 1: why he went there to say you're not doing enough 287 00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:08,320 Speaker 1: about the guns. So they'll have a choice, and a 288 00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:10,960 Speaker 1: stark choice to make in November. I don't think this 289 00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:13,160 Speaker 1: will be the only thing people wote on, but it 290 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:16,000 Speaker 1: will certain to be out front. Well, that's the point 291 00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:17,880 Speaker 1: he was trying to take. But it's it's like the 292 00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:21,640 Speaker 1: abortion issue. Nobody's changing their minds. Everybody can get as 293 00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:26,320 Speaker 1: theatrical as they wish, nobody's changing their minds. Yeah, because 294 00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:28,400 Speaker 1: you don't think there's anybody kind of in the middle, 295 00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:31,160 Speaker 1: especially on an issue like this about you know, maybe 296 00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:35,440 Speaker 1: this is because nobody has demonstrated since I don't really 297 00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:38,000 Speaker 1: own a gun or car about guns anyway? And what 298 00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:41,000 Speaker 1: is the law? Because they taught everybody talks generically, what 299 00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:45,200 Speaker 1: is the law that should have passed that would have 300 00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:49,360 Speaker 1: stopped this guy from walking in and shooting up all 301 00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:51,480 Speaker 1: the kids? What? What is what is the law that 302 00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:55,480 Speaker 1: would have stopped him? Because there's you take all the guns, 303 00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:58,720 Speaker 1: which is against the constitution apparently, So what I saw 304 00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:01,560 Speaker 1: this yesterday Australia as a mandatory they had a mandatory 305 00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:06,040 Speaker 1: assault weapon buyback program. That's what Beto O'Rourke was pushing for, right, 306 00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:09,200 Speaker 1: But most of these killings are not They're not with 307 00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:12,639 Speaker 1: AR fifteens. Most of them are WITHND guns. Most of 308 00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:14,480 Speaker 1: the mass shootings are yea yeah, and you can kill 309 00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:16,280 Speaker 1: a couple of dozen people. Seems like when we see 310 00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:19,480 Speaker 1: these big ones, it scares people. There's always the AAR 311 00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:22,200 Speaker 1: fifteen years. But what I read today is eighty percent 312 00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:25,760 Speaker 1: of these mass shootings or handguns, which are legal. Most 313 00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:28,680 Speaker 1: of the guns used in these shootings were legally purchased 314 00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:34,560 Speaker 1: either by the young man or family member. But there's 315 00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:38,800 Speaker 1: actually very few illegal guns used for these mass shootings. 316 00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:43,159 Speaker 1: Now you go out in the streets of the urban city, 317 00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:45,480 Speaker 1: then yeah, there's a lot of illegal guns and ghost guns, 318 00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:48,679 Speaker 1: but not these because most of these people are you know, 319 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:51,880 Speaker 1: they have parents or a parent or half a parent 320 00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:55,280 Speaker 1: or something right, and often the parents by the guns. 321 00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:58,120 Speaker 1: The guy in Buffalo, his dad bought him the gun, 322 00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:01,680 Speaker 1: Sandy Hook. Remember the mother bought the gun and took 323 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:04,359 Speaker 1: the kid for shooting practice and you missed one. The 324 00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:07,320 Speaker 1: Michigan shooter, the Michigan shooter. Remember that they gave him 325 00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:08,920 Speaker 1: to that for his birthday. We were quite proud to 326 00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:10,919 Speaker 1: give him that. Those parents are really crazy at Michigan. 327 00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:13,639 Speaker 1: Remember that story. Yeah, now, all right, now here is 328 00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:19,720 Speaker 1: better or Rourke. In February, he announced he was running 329 00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:24,520 Speaker 1: against Abbott for governor, and they asked him about his 330 00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:28,480 Speaker 1: gun remarks in the past. He wanted to take away 331 00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:31,760 Speaker 1: a R fifteens and AK forty sevens. Here's what he said. 332 00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:36,960 Speaker 1: I'm not interested in taking anything from anyone. What I 333 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:39,639 Speaker 1: want to make sure is we do defend the Second Amendment. 334 00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:42,440 Speaker 1: I want to make sure we protect our fellow Texans 335 00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:44,639 Speaker 1: far better than we're doing right now, and that we 336 00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:47,400 Speaker 1: listened to law enforcement, which Greg Abbott refused to do. 337 00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:49,560 Speaker 1: He turned his back on them when he signed that 338 00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:53,480 Speaker 1: permitless carry bill that endangers the lives of law enforcement. 339 00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:57,639 Speaker 1: Blah blah blah blah. But that carry law has nothing 340 00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:01,560 Speaker 1: to do with what happened in this case. I see. 341 00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:05,400 Speaker 1: The thing is they're performing. He's an actor, he has 342 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:08,359 Speaker 1: a stage. He went out and performed. What is the law? 343 00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:11,800 Speaker 1: And he was in Congress he could have sponsored these laws. 344 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:15,640 Speaker 1: He could be running on this to become Governor's when 345 00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:17,440 Speaker 1: he becomes a governor, what's the law that would have 346 00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:19,440 Speaker 1: stopped this one? What's the law that would have stopped 347 00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:20,760 Speaker 1: the one? And I think they feel that they get 348 00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:22,760 Speaker 1: an assault weapon ban. They've got to stop some of these. 349 00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:24,639 Speaker 1: I realized most of the shootings are not done with 350 00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:26,840 Speaker 1: the sault weapons. But this is what they want. This 351 00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:30,760 Speaker 1: seems to be the craziness with and that's fine. I 352 00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:33,040 Speaker 1: actually to talk about later. I don't really particularly care 353 00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:34,760 Speaker 1: about I don't care about guns at all, and I 354 00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:38,199 Speaker 1: don't care what restrictions are, uh, you know, because you 355 00:19:38,200 --> 00:19:40,200 Speaker 1: can only do so much because it's a it's a 356 00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:43,240 Speaker 1: it's a second Amendment. But I don't see this magic 357 00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:45,760 Speaker 1: bullet that would This guy would have walked in with 358 00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:48,000 Speaker 1: whatever gun he could get his hands on, and he 359 00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:50,600 Speaker 1: would have done a fair amount of damage, maybe a 360 00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:53,000 Speaker 1: few less if he had a handgun, but who knows. 361 00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:56,240 Speaker 1: All Right, we got more coming up, John and ken Ki. 362 00:19:56,720 --> 00:20:00,040 Speaker 1: The Gun Control Act of nineteen sixty eight set the 363 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,760 Speaker 1: rifle buying age at eighteen. I was signed by Lyndon 364 00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:06,600 Speaker 1: Johnson and a fully Democratic Congress. In nineteen ninety three, 365 00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:13,280 Speaker 1: Clinton signed full Democratic Congress the background checked Law. And 366 00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:17,280 Speaker 1: this guy in Texas passed the background check because the 367 00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:21,880 Speaker 1: background check just looked for felonies or mental health incarcerations. 368 00:20:22,240 --> 00:20:25,840 Speaker 1: He didn't have either one. So they passed the background 369 00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 1: check law, and they passed the rifle buying age limit law, 370 00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:36,160 Speaker 1: and it's been that way for many decades and nobody's 371 00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:39,320 Speaker 1: changed it. So again, I don't know what the law, 372 00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:43,960 Speaker 1: who's proposing, what law that would have prevented this from happening. 373 00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:52,680 Speaker 1: It's just it's just theater. You're gonna see. Nothing gets done. 374 00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:54,560 Speaker 1: Nothing got done after Sandy Hook. I think it's gonna 375 00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:57,040 Speaker 1: get done this time. Calf I am six forty. Johnny 376 00:20:57,080 --> 00:21:02,520 Speaker 1: Kensche Okay, all right, but nothing. I just hear you 377 00:21:02,640 --> 00:21:05,280 Speaker 1: rant it's funny. Well, I'm right. I'm trying to just 378 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:10,120 Speaker 1: tell everybody the truth. There's so much a horsecrap out there. Yeah, well, 379 00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:13,600 Speaker 1: this time the response is not sadness. Actually it's a 380 00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:17,600 Speaker 1: well it's blamed and anger that we didn't do anything. Well, 381 00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:20,640 Speaker 1: what are they going to do? People just want something passed, 382 00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:23,879 Speaker 1: even if it's useless. They don't care. We'll only know 383 00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:25,919 Speaker 1: that ten years from now. But we've had a lot 384 00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:28,439 Speaker 1: of time that that assault weapon bill passed in the 385 00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:31,239 Speaker 1: nineties had an effect. I haven't looked enough into it 386 00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:33,280 Speaker 1: to answer the question. I've read reports that it did 387 00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:35,320 Speaker 1: have enough. Do you know what the politics was behind 388 00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:37,879 Speaker 1: that though. They passed it in ninety four because the 389 00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:41,120 Speaker 1: Democrats ran Congress and Clinton signed it, but they put 390 00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:44,440 Speaker 1: a ten year sunset provision in it. Yes, it ended 391 00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:47,800 Speaker 1: in two thousand and four. And after they signed that 392 00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:52,840 Speaker 1: gun law, the Republicans blew the Democrats out of office. 393 00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:55,480 Speaker 1: That was the new Gang Rich Contract with America year. 394 00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:58,400 Speaker 1: The Democrats blamed it on the gun law and they 395 00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:01,440 Speaker 1: privately said never again. We are never going to pass 396 00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:04,800 Speaker 1: that again. And they have it now, and it's been 397 00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:09,159 Speaker 1: eighteen years since that law was sunset it. They're not 398 00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:16,520 Speaker 1: going to do it. They never have since. They talk 399 00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:18,239 Speaker 1: a good game, but they know the law is going 400 00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:19,760 Speaker 1: to be voted down. They know the law is not 401 00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:23,080 Speaker 1: going to survive a filibuster. And really, the public's not 402 00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:26,560 Speaker 1: voting on it. The public has never put a Congress 403 00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:30,680 Speaker 1: in to power that was voted in primarily to change 404 00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:33,840 Speaker 1: gun laws. It's never happened. We don't We don't have 405 00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:38,200 Speaker 1: that majority of people who are pushing the issue. That 406 00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:41,159 Speaker 1: polls I read it is a majority of people, but 407 00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:43,119 Speaker 1: do they vote on it or has it gone? Hundreds 408 00:22:43,119 --> 00:22:45,240 Speaker 1: of millions of guns But the percentage of gun owners, 409 00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:48,160 Speaker 1: especially in the urban areas. Is it an opinion they 410 00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:51,040 Speaker 1: have or do they vote on it? It's a huge difference. Well, 411 00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:53,120 Speaker 1: it's the same thing we said with the abortion issue. Yeah, 412 00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:54,679 Speaker 1: I'm most people are going to vote on the economy. 413 00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:56,879 Speaker 1: They're going to vote an inflation, gas prices, things that 414 00:22:56,880 --> 00:22:59,760 Speaker 1: affect their daily lives, right, so, right, exactly, So these 415 00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:02,720 Speaker 1: are these are issues that are horrible, you know, a boarding, 416 00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:06,040 Speaker 1: babies and math shootings, but they don't affect most people's 417 00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:08,000 Speaker 1: day to day lives. They're just news stories that flash 418 00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:10,320 Speaker 1: into their heads and make them go, oh my god. Exactly. 419 00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:13,600 Speaker 1: And uh, you know, we can't even remember the Buffalo 420 00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:16,960 Speaker 1: guy's name, and in a few days, we're not going 421 00:23:17,000 --> 00:23:20,560 Speaker 1: to remember this guy's name. Well, the Buffalo guy is Peyton, 422 00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:25,320 Speaker 1: Peyton Gendron, remember, Yeah, But you know, I don't remember 423 00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:27,879 Speaker 1: the Michigan school shooter though. That else last year late 424 00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:29,640 Speaker 1: last year. As ten people on the street, they don't 425 00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:34,639 Speaker 1: know Paytron Peyton Gendron is. But about the Parkland, Florida shooter, remember, 426 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:36,800 Speaker 1: I think Nicholas Cruz he's on trial too. I think 427 00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:39,199 Speaker 1: it's coming up. Yeah he is, He's gonna be at 428 00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:43,119 Speaker 1: least Yeah, And then uh, the Sandy Hook, Connecticut to 429 00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:48,680 Speaker 1: shoot the Yeah, what was his name? Lens? Was it? Um? 430 00:23:48,840 --> 00:23:50,920 Speaker 1: I don't remember. I mean, but you're not supposed to 431 00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:52,840 Speaker 1: because these are evil people. Why would you want to 432 00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:54,560 Speaker 1: remember their name. That's what they want. They want to 433 00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:56,679 Speaker 1: be remembered for eternity. Yeah, I know, but you can 434 00:23:56,760 --> 00:23:59,160 Speaker 1: remember the shootings, and that's what matters. We're not gonna 435 00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:01,919 Speaker 1: I can't remember all them. But what I'm saying is 436 00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:06,399 Speaker 1: people's emotions go up and down in about a twenty 437 00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:09,679 Speaker 1: four hours. But let's just say this. You got to 438 00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:13,280 Speaker 1: say this. We gotta live with this. Mass shootings are 439 00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:16,960 Speaker 1: a part of American life. I realize that sounds crazy, 440 00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:19,639 Speaker 1: but no, if you're saying that, you're saying, yes, that 441 00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:22,160 Speaker 1: that's that's what it is. It comes with the freedoms 442 00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:24,040 Speaker 1: to own guns, right, It comes with the freedoms to 443 00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:26,560 Speaker 1: be in America. It comes with the freedoms to go 444 00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:30,640 Speaker 1: nuts on social media. Nobody notices. My opinion is that 445 00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:32,760 Speaker 1: you're not going to change like the I guess what 446 00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:35,040 Speaker 1: they're screaming about. You're accepting this. This is a part 447 00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:36,680 Speaker 1: of life now in the US. You're not going to 448 00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:39,920 Speaker 1: change the cultural infrastructure. There's gonna be four hundred million 449 00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:42,160 Speaker 1: guns in the country a year from now, and ten 450 00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:44,800 Speaker 1: years from now, and thirty years from now. Okay, there's 451 00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:48,400 Speaker 1: gonna be five hundred million. That's not going to change. 452 00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:52,360 Speaker 1: You're also not going to change the nature of human violence. 453 00:24:52,400 --> 00:24:56,040 Speaker 1: I mean, we're watching We're watching Vladimir Putin kill thousands 454 00:24:56,040 --> 00:24:59,399 Speaker 1: of his own people and thousands of Ukrainians. This is 455 00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:02,120 Speaker 1: just part of the makeup. This is how we came 456 00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:05,120 Speaker 1: into the on the planet. We came on the planet violent. 457 00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:09,520 Speaker 1: So yeah, guy, this country was formed out of violence, 458 00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:12,920 Speaker 1: revolution exactly. We started this with a war. That's why 459 00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:15,440 Speaker 1: we're a gun country, because we don't trust the government. 460 00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:19,360 Speaker 1: How many how many oppressors? How many Native Americans did 461 00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:22,280 Speaker 1: we kill just trying to settle the land? Oh? Yeah, 462 00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:25,040 Speaker 1: because that's that white imperialist European pet I mean, how 463 00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:28,320 Speaker 1: many slaves did we kill? I mean, how many people 464 00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:31,359 Speaker 1: have we collectively killed? You know what? I looked up 465 00:25:31,400 --> 00:25:34,119 Speaker 1: in Chicago and I'm not trying to minimize the shooting 466 00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:36,600 Speaker 1: yesterday it was nineteen people, right, do you know in 467 00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:42,920 Speaker 1: Chicago that's two days but not one shooting. Yeah, I'm sorry, 468 00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:47,280 Speaker 1: it's eight days, eight days over eight days, nineteen people die. 469 00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:49,720 Speaker 1: Yet it's about two and a fraction a day, so 470 00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:53,639 Speaker 1: that's eight days in Chicago. What happened in a few minutes. 471 00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:56,560 Speaker 1: What I'm saying is nobody's screaming and yelling what's going 472 00:25:56,600 --> 00:25:59,439 Speaker 1: on in Chicago. And every week you have another nineteen 473 00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:02,360 Speaker 1: and another nineteen and another nineteen, and you've got you've 474 00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:04,760 Speaker 1: got some number here in LA. It's like, look how 475 00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:08,439 Speaker 1: violent we are. And for some reason, it's just and 476 00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:11,399 Speaker 1: I understand why, because those children are so innocent and 477 00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:14,080 Speaker 1: they're so young. But that's where we blow off steam 478 00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:16,400 Speaker 1: for twenty four hours and then we all go back 479 00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:18,879 Speaker 1: to the regular way, and then another nineteen people die 480 00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:22,520 Speaker 1: in Chicago that week. It's just weird the way human 481 00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:25,720 Speaker 1: beings react to stuff. And we might find out because 482 00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:29,679 Speaker 1: this crowd in DC will try to make this and 483 00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:32,359 Speaker 1: the abortion thing an issue enough to really control Congress 484 00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:34,240 Speaker 1: in the Senate. And if they don't, then you're right. 485 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:37,200 Speaker 1: You're right, because I think these will be the two 486 00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:40,879 Speaker 1: big issues that they trump for the election. And I 487 00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:43,119 Speaker 1: think the other side will stick with the inflation and 488 00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:45,560 Speaker 1: the economy and the gas prices and that continues. I 489 00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:48,480 Speaker 1: think I think gas is five dollars a gallon or 490 00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:52,040 Speaker 1: close to it in November. Then yeah, the Democrats are 491 00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:55,600 Speaker 1: swirling the ball. They're getting flushed. Did you see in 492 00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:58,439 Speaker 1: some parts of California gas prices are higher than the 493 00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:01,400 Speaker 1: federal minimum wage. That's a good one. I saw that, 494 00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:04,560 Speaker 1: and I'm thinking, all right, some places it's over seven bucks. 495 00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:06,720 Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean, we don't have some places posting 496 00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:08,600 Speaker 1: seven dollars games Okay, yeah we don't. We don't have 497 00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:11,520 Speaker 1: the federal minimum wage here in LA. In California, we 498 00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:13,360 Speaker 1: got to deal with the state minimum wage. But yeah, 499 00:27:13,359 --> 00:27:16,600 Speaker 1: you'd have to work. I mean, if you're if you 500 00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:19,800 Speaker 1: spend twenty gallons a week, which is what I do, 501 00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:23,200 Speaker 1: right about one tank of gas a week, that's half 502 00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:26,640 Speaker 1: your paycheck. If you were making minimum wage, the federal 503 00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:30,480 Speaker 1: wage as it is, the California minimum wage, that's a 504 00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:32,760 Speaker 1: quarter of your paycheck just to fill the gas tank. 505 00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:37,200 Speaker 1: This this can't hold. This can't last. There's no way. 506 00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:39,720 Speaker 1: Plus that's the huge increases in the price of food. 507 00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:44,160 Speaker 1: Now we're heading for a really bad end here and 508 00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:46,680 Speaker 1: I and you know what, the Democrats are going to 509 00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:50,720 Speaker 1: deserve it because they completely fouled up the economy now 510 00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:52,159 Speaker 1: I wish there was something we could do with the 511 00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:55,320 Speaker 1: Sacramento Democrats. We'll be talking to a Republican leader in 512 00:27:55,320 --> 00:28:00,439 Speaker 1: the Assembly, James Gallagher. After three they're still trying to 513 00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:03,800 Speaker 1: get something past and Sacramento that would suspend the California 514 00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:07,240 Speaker 1: gas tax. But they don't get anywhere with the Democrat control. 515 00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:09,719 Speaker 1: But he'll tell us what they did. They work with 516 00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:12,639 Speaker 1: some Democrats on a bill to do that. So a 517 00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:16,280 Speaker 1: few Democrats want to help out again here here in California, 518 00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:17,600 Speaker 1: there's probably a lot of people who are going to 519 00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:21,520 Speaker 1: vote on abortion and guns, and because they vote on that, 520 00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:23,600 Speaker 1: we're gonna be paying six fifty for games. Oh yeah, 521 00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:26,040 Speaker 1: I saw an anti Rick Caruso add by the Karen 522 00:28:26,080 --> 00:28:29,560 Speaker 1: Bass people. It was about abortion, right, because Rick Caruso, 523 00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:31,760 Speaker 1: the mayor of La. All the all the energy on 524 00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:34,120 Speaker 1: those issues comes at It comes out of states where 525 00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:38,360 Speaker 1: it's already over overwhelmingly democratic. It is a California, New York, 526 00:28:38,360 --> 00:28:41,960 Speaker 1: New Jersey, Illinois. They have all their voters, they've all 527 00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:44,520 Speaker 1: migrated and are bunched up in just a few states. 528 00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:48,760 Speaker 1: So there there's there's a huge number of people, but 529 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:51,280 Speaker 1: they're only in a few states. Yes, they're clumped right, 530 00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:53,240 Speaker 1: all right, we got more coming up, John and k 531 00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:56,640 Speaker 1: you know we're gonna be talking about You're a special tonight, 532 00:28:56,720 --> 00:28:59,280 Speaker 1: right like it's yours the Fox. I've been special on 533 00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:02,760 Speaker 1: Los Angeles. I'm glad you reminded me. Alex Michaelson's coming 534 00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:05,280 Speaker 1: on at four oh five and we'll play a preview 535 00:29:06,600 --> 00:29:10,120 Speaker 1: for the documentary Fox eleven is running this tonight about 536 00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:14,600 Speaker 1: Los Angeles and the Homeless Lost. Yeah, six o'clock on 537 00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:19,320 Speaker 1: Fox eleven. John says he's featured prominently. That's what they 538 00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:22,240 Speaker 1: tell me that I'm featured throughout the documentary. And there's 539 00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:25,080 Speaker 1: a little clip of me in this in this preview trailer. 540 00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:26,920 Speaker 1: Were you on the streets or were you at home? 541 00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:29,160 Speaker 1: Were you on zoom in one of the studios here? 542 00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:32,720 Speaker 1: They came in, Phil Schumann came in, He says, high 543 00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:37,720 Speaker 1: all right. So, uh. The reason I'm mentioning that now 544 00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:44,520 Speaker 1: is when you weave this ridiculous web of homeless tolerance, 545 00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:49,000 Speaker 1: you can see how it's snowballs and becomes a gigantic 546 00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:56,240 Speaker 1: mound of filth. The example today is they tolerated homelessness 547 00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:59,640 Speaker 1: in Los Angeles. They allowed people to sort of park 548 00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:03,120 Speaker 1: there are vs on streets. They talked about enforcement. Then 549 00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:08,320 Speaker 1: the pandemic came as, all right, you don't bother anybody, 550 00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:11,560 Speaker 1: so they let the RVs sit there. Here we are 551 00:30:11,600 --> 00:30:15,280 Speaker 1: two years after the pandemic began. They decided, let's go 552 00:30:15,320 --> 00:30:18,960 Speaker 1: back to enforcement. However, the RV has to be empty. 553 00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:22,400 Speaker 1: If there's somebody living in the RV, you have to 554 00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:26,600 Speaker 1: bring in the homeless services people for outreach. But let's 555 00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:29,360 Speaker 1: just stop there for a moment, and let's put that aside. 556 00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:34,000 Speaker 1: If the RV's abandoned, they can tow it and get 557 00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:38,160 Speaker 1: it off the damn street. Here's the new development. They can't. 558 00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:42,280 Speaker 1: They don't have enough space for the RVs. They've only 559 00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:46,640 Speaker 1: got one towing company that can handle these oversized vehicles. 560 00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:50,840 Speaker 1: But you talk about painting yourself into a cluster bleep. 561 00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:54,560 Speaker 1: There should be no excuses. No, they get these off 562 00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:56,400 Speaker 1: the streets. How many billions of dollars do we pay 563 00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:59,400 Speaker 1: and tax money? Don't store it, send it to the junkyard. 564 00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:02,240 Speaker 1: You have a trun down to nothing, do not store it. 565 00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:07,960 Speaker 1: Don't store it. I don't understand, just confiscated. They said, 566 00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:10,000 Speaker 1: we do not have enough space to handle these suddenly 567 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:12,720 Speaker 1: influx of large RVs crush it to nothings. Do you 568 00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:15,440 Speaker 1: know how much abandoned? Nobody cares. I don't care. Oh, 569 00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:19,080 Speaker 1: some judge is gonna say it's their property, you confiscated 570 00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:25,479 Speaker 1: their screw them. There you go. Well, am I right? 571 00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:28,200 Speaker 1: So you're absolutely right. I agree with you. None of 572 00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:32,200 Speaker 1: the eighteen police garages has space to store potentially dozens 573 00:31:32,240 --> 00:31:34,640 Speaker 1: of the large RVs. So you know how many empty 574 00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:38,280 Speaker 1: lots the loss the city of Los Angeles owns. And 575 00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:40,000 Speaker 1: if they don't, all look at their claiming. He'll wait 576 00:31:40,040 --> 00:31:42,200 Speaker 1: a minute, I'll look at that. They got me. The 577 00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:44,720 Speaker 1: lack of demand for recycling services mean there are a 578 00:31:44,720 --> 00:31:47,680 Speaker 1: few facilities across the region that could handle breaking down 579 00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:52,160 Speaker 1: that many RVs for scrap. Wow, they really have everything quantity, 580 00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:55,080 Speaker 1: So we just leave it there. Huh. You know what, 581 00:31:56,480 --> 00:31:59,200 Speaker 1: it's all nonsense. You told first of all, if you 582 00:31:59,240 --> 00:32:01,040 Speaker 1: don't get a crane, if you gave it to the desert, 583 00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:03,240 Speaker 1: drop it in a landfill. If you don't have enough 584 00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:06,640 Speaker 1: tow trucks, buy them. The city should buy tow trucks. 585 00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:09,120 Speaker 1: We give them billions of dollars. We gave them billions 586 00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:11,480 Speaker 1: of dollars for this homeless tobaccle. Use some of it 587 00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:14,479 Speaker 1: to buy the tow trucks. Buy some land. Yeah, go 588 00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:16,280 Speaker 1: buy some land out in the desert. They have a 589 00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:19,200 Speaker 1: lot of empty lots that the city owns. There's plenty 590 00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:21,920 Speaker 1: of abandoned buildings, abandoned lots that you get on the cheap, 591 00:32:22,320 --> 00:32:26,320 Speaker 1: buy them, use them, I mean, or get a get 592 00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:29,680 Speaker 1: an RV crushing machine. You don't have to sell the 593 00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:32,680 Speaker 1: scraps it down to a quarter, just haul it out 594 00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:36,040 Speaker 1: to a landfill somewhere. We don't have to recycle it, 595 00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:39,320 Speaker 1: just get it off the streets. I hate that. That 596 00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:42,320 Speaker 1: is government saying, right, you know, we can't do this. Yeah, 597 00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:44,080 Speaker 1: because they don't want to do it. That's why they 598 00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:48,080 Speaker 1: don't want to do it. And this is why you 599 00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:51,280 Speaker 1: need a new leader, a guy who because like if 600 00:32:51,320 --> 00:32:53,520 Speaker 1: I'm mayor, right, if you're a mayor, and they coming home, 601 00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:57,120 Speaker 1: we can't do it. It's like we're gonna appropriate the money. 602 00:32:57,240 --> 00:33:00,800 Speaker 1: You go buy some town. We're gonna we're gonna use 603 00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:02,600 Speaker 1: some of the abandoned property we have, and they have 604 00:33:02,640 --> 00:33:05,040 Speaker 1: a ton of abandoned property, or we're gonna buy some 605 00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:07,960 Speaker 1: new abandoned property, all right, And and you know what, 606 00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:11,040 Speaker 1: then we're gonna we're gonna find a place that'll crush 607 00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:13,000 Speaker 1: it up and we'll take it out to the landfill. 608 00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:16,600 Speaker 1: And if it doesn't get recycled, I don't care. Make 609 00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:20,360 Speaker 1: it so that doesn't matter. That's what you do. You delicate. 610 00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:22,520 Speaker 1: Somebody has to figure this out rather than putting up 611 00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:25,200 Speaker 1: their hands and saying, we let this go for so long. 612 00:33:25,280 --> 00:33:26,920 Speaker 1: Now they're too many, we have no space for this, 613 00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:30,840 Speaker 1: blah blah blah.
