That's the thing that 35 00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:56,880 Speaker 1: gets most people. They get tough for him, It get 36 00:03:57,040 --> 00:03:59,280 Speaker 1: hard for him, and then they let doubts set in, 37 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:03,360 Speaker 1: and then those doubts become facts and the next thing 38 00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 1: you know, they give up. Ever cross your mind, had 39 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:11,440 Speaker 1: you not given up, or had you given your best, 40 00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:15,200 Speaker 1: what the results of outcome could have been. I look 41 00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 1: back on my life on so many occasions where in 42 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 1: college I wasn't giving my best. I flunked out. Now 43 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:29,000 Speaker 1: it's easy to look at my life nine go yeah, 44 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:32,400 Speaker 1: but look at you now. But back then, man, it 45 00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:38,560 Speaker 1: cost me for so many years that failing to finish, 46 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:44,440 Speaker 1: that not giving my all, it cost me a number 47 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 1: of years. I wish I could say that it didn't 48 00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:50,280 Speaker 1: mean nothing, that it was just a blimp on the 49 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:53,279 Speaker 1: radar scre screen. But at the time it was major. 50 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:56,160 Speaker 1: And so you have a lot of decisions in your 51 00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:59,560 Speaker 1: life that are happening now. You may be in your twenties, 52 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:02,640 Speaker 1: your late teens, you could be in your early thirties, 53 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:07,279 Speaker 1: and it's happening. But guess what you'll eventually get through 54 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:12,520 Speaker 1: it provided one thing, you never give up. You never 55 00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:16,599 Speaker 1: turn around and go back. Had I written myself off 56 00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:19,920 Speaker 1: because of one failure? See, and this is where so 57 00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:22,799 Speaker 1: many people go but go wrong at two. You write 58 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:27,640 Speaker 1: yourself off after you failed at something, the one thing 59 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:30,600 Speaker 1: you thought you wanted to accomplish, and you failed at it. 60 00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:33,440 Speaker 1: Now you write yourself as as a failure. Now you 61 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:35,920 Speaker 1: go settle on, end to life and just see what 62 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:40,200 Speaker 1: See what hand you get had when I flunked out 63 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:43,520 Speaker 1: of college, had I written myself off as a failure? 64 00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:47,000 Speaker 1: I wouldn't be here today. When I lost my carpet 65 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:50,440 Speaker 1: cleaning company, I would have written myself as a failure 66 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:53,800 Speaker 1: and I wouldn't be here today. When I didn't become 67 00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:57,720 Speaker 1: a diamond distributed in am Way or a direct distributed 68 00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:00,520 Speaker 1: in am Way, even I would have written myself as 69 00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:03,600 Speaker 1: a as a failure and I wouldn't be here today. 70 00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 1: When I bought a distribution kit to become a distributor 71 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:13,200 Speaker 1: of of the Bohemian Diet and I didn't make it, 72 00:06:14,120 --> 00:06:16,240 Speaker 1: I would have ridden myself as a failure. When I 73 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 1: became an Hero Williams distributor and I didn't make it, 74 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:21,680 Speaker 1: I would have written myself as a failure and I 75 00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:24,440 Speaker 1: wouldn't be here today. Oh, I gotta list for you. 76 00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:28,440 Speaker 1: When I got laid off in for a motor company 77 00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:31,680 Speaker 1: and I ridden myself as a failure, I wouldn't have 78 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:38,920 Speaker 1: made it. Do do you need some more? Because I 79 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 1: have a story, feel with mishaps. I have a story 80 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:50,280 Speaker 1: filled with failures. A couple of things now, the grace 81 00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:54,040 Speaker 1: of God and his mercy which is available to us all. 82 00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:59,080 Speaker 1: See that's the key, y'all. Because of his mercy, because 83 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:04,560 Speaker 1: of his willing this to forgive and to even understand 84 00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:09,360 Speaker 1: why we do the things we do. In all of 85 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 1: my shortcomings, failed marriages I'm talking about, man got it 86 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:19,680 Speaker 1: all wrong. I can't blame nobody else, It's just me. 87 00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:23,120 Speaker 1: Steve ain't have it together at that point in life. 88 00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:27,720 Speaker 1: I could have ridden myself as a failure the first time. 89 00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 1: I could have. I just could have gave up on 90 00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 1: it after the second one. And and the police know 91 00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:37,400 Speaker 1: that this is an admission. This ain't bragging. So before 92 00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:40,800 Speaker 1: you start in with me, understand what I'm saying. I'm 93 00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:46,880 Speaker 1: pointing out in my life a series of missteps and failures. 94 00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:52,720 Speaker 1: But how I still get here today a couple of things. 95 00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:59,040 Speaker 1: God's grace and mercy is first. But that's the key, 96 00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:03,200 Speaker 1: that's for every body see if it's God's willingness to 97 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:08,160 Speaker 1: forgive you and God's understanding of why we do what 98 00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 1: we do because He said we wasn't gonna be perfect. 99 00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:16,120 Speaker 1: So in all of your imperfections, your creator told you 100 00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:19,080 Speaker 1: you would not be perfect. He's said it to you. 101 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:22,000 Speaker 1: It's out there. I don't care which one of the 102 00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 1: books you read, it tells you that. So guess what. 103 00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:31,680 Speaker 1: With that in mind, he has a grace that he has. 104 00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 1: It's like a grace period. It's like when you don't 105 00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:37,640 Speaker 1: pay your insurance premium on the day that is due. 106 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 1: The next day, they don't just cancel your insurance premium. 107 00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:45,480 Speaker 1: They have a grace period because they ain't trying to 108 00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:48,760 Speaker 1: stop this money from coming in. But when it comes 109 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 1: to God, there's no money required. He just gives you 110 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:56,000 Speaker 1: the grace freely. It don't cost you nothing. So you 111 00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:58,640 Speaker 1: got tap into that, y'all. You gotta get in touch 112 00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:00,920 Speaker 1: with that, because that's an important part to making it. 113 00:09:01,400 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 1: Understanding that his grace is available. So when you make 114 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:09,720 Speaker 1: a mistake, So when you fail at it, he has 115 00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:13,559 Speaker 1: a loophole in the contract with him that allows you 116 00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:16,480 Speaker 1: to make mistakes, that allows you to get it wrong, 117 00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:20,640 Speaker 1: that allows you to fail time and time and time again. 118 00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 1: But if you never give up, if you keep getting up, 119 00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:27,400 Speaker 1: if you keep trying, if you keep striving, if you 120 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:31,120 Speaker 1: keep making the effort to go forward and not go back, 121 00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:35,000 Speaker 1: God has a blessing for you, and He has it 122 00:09:35,160 --> 00:09:37,880 Speaker 1: in abundance for you, and God will give it to 123 00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:43,160 Speaker 1: you at the right time. But you got to be ready. Oh, 124 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:46,720 Speaker 1: I wanted to be successful. But if he had given 125 00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:49,439 Speaker 1: it to me back then, I wouldn't have handled it 126 00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:53,440 Speaker 1: correctly because I would have made some more mistakes along 127 00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:57,480 Speaker 1: the way. So you make the mistakes to learn the lessons. 128 00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:00,439 Speaker 1: And what I learned was every fail you that I 129 00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:03,839 Speaker 1: had was not a really a failure, It was a 130 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:11,880 Speaker 1: valuable gained learned experience. And when you get experienced, man, 131 00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 1: you gain knowledge, knowledge and wisdom. Next thing you know, 132 00:10:16,920 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 1: you ready for the next time. And then after a while, 133 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 1: when you failed enough times at it and you've gotten 134 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 1: it wrong and you've made the adjustments as to the 135 00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:30,400 Speaker 1: person you are, because everybody different, then guess what. Here 136 00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:32,680 Speaker 1: he comes. Okay, I see you get it. Now, let 137 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:34,400 Speaker 1: me go and get you to see how you do that. 138 00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:36,920 Speaker 1: Then if you show appreciation for it, didn't he said, 139 00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:39,280 Speaker 1: all right, I'm gonna add this to your pie.

We 489 00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:22,640 Speaker 1: can honor their sacrifice by pledging our resolve to do 490 00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:27,560 Speaker 1: whatever we must to keep our people. I don't feel 491 00:36:27,600 --> 00:36:30,799 Speaker 1: safer because all the safety funders that President Obama put 492 00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:33,120 Speaker 1: in place is being rolled back with the current president. 493 00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:35,279 Speaker 1: I feel like that he's causing so much division, not 494 00:36:35,360 --> 00:36:38,279 Speaker 1: only in our own country, but amongst the international community too. 495 00:36:38,520 --> 00:36:41,759 Speaker 1: I definitely feel the safe, but um, no matter how 496 00:36:41,840 --> 00:36:44,759 Speaker 1: much security you get stopping people from coming in, there's 497 00:36:44,760 --> 00:36:47,040 Speaker 1: people already here. They're probably angry and could do something 498 00:36:47,080 --> 00:36:49,680 Speaker 1: at any given time. I think the president is causing 499 00:36:49,719 --> 00:36:52,120 Speaker 1: a lot of problems, and you know that's just you know, 500 00:36:52,200 --> 00:36:55,160 Speaker 1: everybody knows that because of the president's in place right now, 501 00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:57,160 Speaker 1: a lot of the work that hasn't done a thing undone. 502 00:36:57,480 --> 00:36:59,680 Speaker 1: I just feel like it's important for us uh as 503 00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:01,880 Speaker 1: you need as as people to put off trust in 504 00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:03,640 Speaker 1: our faith in God, because, like I said, some people 505 00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:05,320 Speaker 1: out of all control. They're going so much. We can do, 506 00:37:05,480 --> 00:37:06,680 Speaker 1: But we need to do what we can do while 507 00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:08,360 Speaker 1: we're here. As far as safety, I don't think we 508 00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:11,520 Speaker 1: can depend on America. I feel safe anymore. I feel like, Um, 509 00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:13,880 Speaker 1: we gotta look to each other and as well with 510 00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:16,000 Speaker 1: a higher power with you God. We need we need 511 00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:18,320 Speaker 1: to pay how much those people who are their lives? 512 00:37:18,719 --> 00:37:23,239 Speaker 1: This is okay, Steve Harvey Nation Attorney Benjamin Crump, our 513 00:37:23,320 --> 00:37:26,120 Speaker 1: special guest tell us about the Dallas police officers shooting. 514 00:37:26,120 --> 00:37:27,759 Speaker 1: That's what he's gonna do coming up on the Steve 515 00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:33,560 Speaker 1: Harvey Morning Show.

Botham Sham 524 00:38:04,880 --> 00:38:10,800 Speaker 1: John Please, welcome to the show. Our fred attorney Benjamin Crump. Wow, welcome, 525 00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:18,279 Speaker 1: and all for having me. Uh, Steve again, we need 526 00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:24,680 Speaker 1: your platform because this situation is just shocking on every level. 527 00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:29,200 Speaker 1: They've been killing black people in America for driving while 528 00:38:29,320 --> 00:38:32,439 Speaker 1: black while we're in our cars, for walking while black 529 00:38:32,680 --> 00:38:35,240 Speaker 1: while we're in our neighborhoods, and now in this case, 530 00:38:35,440 --> 00:38:38,799 Speaker 1: living while black when he was in his own apartment, 531 00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:42,279 Speaker 1: not breaking the law, minding his own business. Police come 532 00:38:42,280 --> 00:38:44,719 Speaker 1: through the front door, shoot him twice in the chest 533 00:38:44,760 --> 00:38:47,480 Speaker 1: and kill him, and then they take three days to 534 00:38:47,600 --> 00:38:51,840 Speaker 1: arrest the officer. Okay, so Attorney Krump tell ex exactly 535 00:38:52,120 --> 00:38:56,399 Speaker 1: what the account of the incident is. They're claiming what happened. Well, 536 00:38:56,520 --> 00:38:59,319 Speaker 1: unfortunately we don't have both of them account because he's 537 00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:03,240 Speaker 1: no longer with this. But the police officer, this Amber Geiger, 538 00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:08,920 Speaker 1: Her account is she went to the wrong apartment allegedly, 539 00:39:09,560 --> 00:39:12,560 Speaker 1: and we have a lot of witness testimony, new information 540 00:39:12,640 --> 00:39:15,200 Speaker 1: coming out from neighbors that seemed to fly in the 541 00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:18,360 Speaker 1: face of what she's trying to allege. But she says 542 00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:21,560 Speaker 1: she went to the wrong apartment, the key wouldn't work, 543 00:39:21,600 --> 00:39:24,879 Speaker 1: and she thought it was her apartment. Somehow the door 544 00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:28,600 Speaker 1: came open. We still don't know the answers to that 545 00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:33,560 Speaker 1: because she has her FEARP Amendment rights as a police officer. 546 00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:36,759 Speaker 1: They won't tell us what she's saying, but what we 547 00:39:37,040 --> 00:39:43,279 Speaker 1: do know is based on her account, she believed her apartment, uh, 548 00:39:44,200 --> 00:39:46,800 Speaker 1: some intruder was in the apartment, and so she shot 549 00:39:46,840 --> 00:39:49,960 Speaker 1: and killed them. Now, these are the police officers who 550 00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:57,160 Speaker 1: are trained, Steve to uh decelerate uh situation, not escalated. 551 00:39:57,560 --> 00:40:00,239 Speaker 1: She's supposed to de escalate the situation. But that's not 552 00:40:00,360 --> 00:40:03,799 Speaker 1: what we had happened here. And think about this young 553 00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:06,560 Speaker 1: man who's an amazing him man. I know we thought 554 00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:09,719 Speaker 1: that world around a lot. He was a college educated, 555 00:40:10,320 --> 00:40:13,280 Speaker 1: uh young man. He was an accountant worker for Price 556 00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:17,000 Speaker 1: Waterhouse Cooper accounting firm. I mean, he was a singer 557 00:40:17,040 --> 00:40:20,120 Speaker 1: in the church. He loved to talk about, you know, 558 00:40:20,520 --> 00:40:24,000 Speaker 1: how people can pull themselves up by the bootstraps. His 559 00:40:24,320 --> 00:40:28,279 Speaker 1: mother was the secretary of the parliament back in their 560 00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:32,120 Speaker 1: island nation of St. Lucian, And he was doing everything right. 561 00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:36,120 Speaker 1: But today he is dead, I believe because that police 562 00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:39,640 Speaker 1: officer feared his black skin. Hey, Attorney Crump, hang on 563 00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:42,200 Speaker 1: one second, we'll be right back with more with more 564 00:40:42,239 --> 00:40:44,319 Speaker 1: about this case side of Dallas. We'll be right back. 565 00:40:44,800 --> 00:40:50,640 Speaker 1: You're listening. Hey, we're back. We'll continue our conversation with 566 00:40:51,239 --> 00:40:54,520 Speaker 1: attorney Benjamin Crump. Let me just comment about what you 567 00:40:54,680 --> 00:40:59,280 Speaker 1: just said. This is a trained officer, a police person 568 00:40:59,400 --> 00:41:02,239 Speaker 1: with trade, a woman who shot him. Okay, now let's 569 00:41:02,280 --> 00:41:04,920 Speaker 1: take a regular person. I come home, I live in 570 00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:08,920 Speaker 1: an apartment. I go to a door in my apartment 571 00:41:09,080 --> 00:41:14,120 Speaker 1: complex that I'm thinking is mine, but it's not. Maybe 572 00:41:14,200 --> 00:41:16,919 Speaker 1: I try to key, it don't work, nothing, I don't 573 00:41:16,960 --> 00:41:21,560 Speaker 1: know what, but somehow the door comes open. If he 574 00:41:21,760 --> 00:41:24,520 Speaker 1: opened it, if her key opened it, her key couldn't 575 00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:26,920 Speaker 1: have opened it because it wasn't right place. So this 576 00:41:27,160 --> 00:41:31,480 Speaker 1: man had to open the door for her. Now, when 577 00:41:31,560 --> 00:41:36,360 Speaker 1: he opens the door for her, whether it's her apartment 578 00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:40,400 Speaker 1: or not. But the stone cold fact is he was 579 00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:45,840 Speaker 1: in his apartment. What did he do when he opened 580 00:41:45,920 --> 00:41:51,080 Speaker 1: that door that deserves his death to make her shoot him? 581 00:41:53,760 --> 00:41:56,640 Speaker 1: And Steve, I thought you were also going to say, 582 00:41:57,200 --> 00:42:00,440 Speaker 1: if you would have done that, you would have killed them. 583 00:42:00,600 --> 00:42:05,320 Speaker 1: You would have been arrested that night. If I go 584 00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:09,480 Speaker 1: to someone's door and they opened their door and I 585 00:42:09,719 --> 00:42:14,319 Speaker 1: shoot them in their house, I know good in hell, Well, 586 00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:19,920 Speaker 1: I'm going to jail. It's not. It ain't no need 587 00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:23,920 Speaker 1: to me. What what am I fitness? Say when they 588 00:42:24,040 --> 00:42:29,720 Speaker 1: come Hey, man, hold off, I thought that was my place? 589 00:42:30,480 --> 00:42:34,759 Speaker 1: You thought? What? Sir? And Steve? Just two quick things. 590 00:42:34,920 --> 00:42:39,520 Speaker 1: Imagine the legal precedents this would have said had she 591 00:42:39,800 --> 00:42:43,560 Speaker 1: not been arrested. The fact that anybody can now say, 592 00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:47,360 Speaker 1: based on precedents in Dallas, Texas, I went to the 593 00:42:47,480 --> 00:42:50,960 Speaker 1: wrong door and I thought it was an intrudis. I 594 00:42:51,080 --> 00:42:54,000 Speaker 1: shot and killed them. The police officer in Dallas didn't 595 00:42:54,040 --> 00:42:57,160 Speaker 1: get arrested, So why are you arresting me? We can't 596 00:42:57,200 --> 00:42:59,920 Speaker 1: have that type of precedents in America. It has the 597 00:43:00,239 --> 00:43:04,240 Speaker 1: equal justice for everybody, and they can't have it both ways. 598 00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:08,520 Speaker 1: She's claiming she was off duty, but yet they're still 599 00:43:08,640 --> 00:43:13,360 Speaker 1: giving her uh special treatment because she's a police officer. 600 00:43:13,719 --> 00:43:17,280 Speaker 1: She killed him with her service revolver. There's a question 601 00:43:17,680 --> 00:43:21,040 Speaker 1: whether or not she identified herself. There are neighbors who 602 00:43:21,160 --> 00:43:25,200 Speaker 1: have accounts who totally contradict what she is saying, and 603 00:43:25,320 --> 00:43:28,440 Speaker 1: so it's gonna be interesting to see if both of them. 604 00:43:28,520 --> 00:43:34,640 Speaker 1: John gets the same process of the law. Well well okay, okay, 605 00:43:34,800 --> 00:43:37,680 Speaker 1: well okay, well the school, it's cool. Let's take that 606 00:43:37,880 --> 00:43:41,200 Speaker 1: fact that's open show. But the parting is you did 607 00:43:41,360 --> 00:43:46,439 Speaker 1: kill a man right for doing what? I know? Hey, Ben, 608 00:43:46,920 --> 00:43:49,200 Speaker 1: in this case right here, did they have some sort 609 00:43:49,239 --> 00:43:55,040 Speaker 1: of relationship the officer and Mr Botham John. The officer 610 00:43:55,200 --> 00:43:59,600 Speaker 1: has said they had no such relationship. Um, but they're 611 00:43:59,600 --> 00:44:02,520 Speaker 1: still trying to figure that out because based on some 612 00:44:02,640 --> 00:44:04,759 Speaker 1: of the things, and we're not at liberty to say 613 00:44:04,840 --> 00:44:10,799 Speaker 1: that the neighbors have said really doesn't make sense, uh, 614 00:44:11,040 --> 00:44:15,800 Speaker 1: with the things they heard occur before the shooting, and 615 00:44:16,000 --> 00:44:19,200 Speaker 1: you know this is an apartment complex. People can hear 616 00:44:19,600 --> 00:44:22,920 Speaker 1: things in apartment complex, especially at night when you know 617 00:44:23,000 --> 00:44:28,360 Speaker 1: it's a quiet hour. And with Steve with suggestions, Shirley 618 00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:32,520 Speaker 1: was very much like many sensible Americans because this is 619 00:44:32,560 --> 00:44:36,320 Speaker 1: not only shocking for the John family, this is astonishing 620 00:44:36,440 --> 00:44:38,959 Speaker 1: to sensible people when they hear this fact that he's 621 00:44:38,960 --> 00:44:42,480 Speaker 1: in his own apartment. Why isn't she arrested? And why 622 00:44:42,480 --> 00:44:45,680 Speaker 1: are the rules always different when it's a dead person 623 00:44:45,760 --> 00:44:49,120 Speaker 1: of color lying on the ground. It makes no sense, 624 00:44:49,280 --> 00:44:53,440 Speaker 1: It makes none. And I'll tell you what's really interesting 625 00:44:53,560 --> 00:45:00,839 Speaker 1: him ain't heard none from the FA say show you're 626 00:45:00,880 --> 00:45:04,160 Speaker 1: not gonna learning from trust Benjamin Crump, Thank you so 627 00:45:04,360 --> 00:45:07,920 Speaker 1: much for your efforts and your work.

Dear 794 00:55:30,160 --> 00:55:32,600 Speaker 1: Stephen Shirley, My husband and I have been married for 795 00:55:32,800 --> 00:55:36,200 Speaker 1: eleven years. My husband has three grown children from his 796 00:55:36,320 --> 00:55:40,239 Speaker 1: previous marriage, two sons and a daughter. His sons are 797 00:55:40,360 --> 00:55:44,319 Speaker 1: happily married, but his daughter is not. My husband's ex 798 00:55:44,400 --> 00:55:48,480 Speaker 1: wife constantly intrudes in our marriage and in her daughter's marriage. 799 00:55:48,719 --> 00:55:50,719 Speaker 1: The daughter will not keep her mom out of her 800 00:55:50,800 --> 00:55:54,359 Speaker 1: business and it upsets her husband. The ex wife has 801 00:55:54,480 --> 00:55:57,600 Speaker 1: also made my husband's life miserable, but I can deal 802 00:55:57,680 --> 00:56:00,680 Speaker 1: with that. It's my stepdaughter that is the problem. I 803 00:56:00,760 --> 00:56:03,880 Speaker 1: am not welcome at any of the grandchildren's birthday parties 804 00:56:04,000 --> 00:56:07,000 Speaker 1: or family get togethers because of her. I have tried 805 00:56:07,080 --> 00:56:09,880 Speaker 1: for many years to have a relationship with my stepdaughter, 806 00:56:10,160 --> 00:56:13,479 Speaker 1: but she's not interested. I run around and buy things 807 00:56:13,560 --> 00:56:15,800 Speaker 1: for her children and help her father get gifts for 808 00:56:15,880 --> 00:56:19,000 Speaker 1: her children, and she will only thank my husband. She 809 00:56:19,200 --> 00:56:22,680 Speaker 1: has never told me thank you. She refers to our 810 00:56:22,800 --> 00:56:25,680 Speaker 1: home as her dad's house. It hurts my feelings that 811 00:56:25,840 --> 00:56:28,480 Speaker 1: she does not respect my marriage to her dad. My 812 00:56:28,600 --> 00:56:32,279 Speaker 1: husband always defends his daughter's actions and how he treats me. 813 00:56:32,640 --> 00:56:35,000 Speaker 1: He tries to make it better by making up lives 814 00:56:35,080 --> 00:56:37,440 Speaker 1: about how his daughter says to tell me hi when 815 00:56:37,520 --> 00:56:40,279 Speaker 1: they talk. Steve, how can I get my husband to 816 00:56:40,360 --> 00:56:42,520 Speaker 1: realize that his actions are just as bad as his 817 00:56:42,680 --> 00:56:46,120 Speaker 1: daughter's attitude. I'm not worried about the ex wife, but 818 00:56:46,239 --> 00:56:48,480 Speaker 1: I have to spend time with his daughter, So I 819 00:56:48,600 --> 00:56:52,400 Speaker 1: need to fix this situation.

And please stop letting this woman disrespect you 830 00:57:28,640 --> 00:57:33,680 Speaker 1: like this. Okay, Uh, you deserve much better. You know, 831 00:57:34,080 --> 00:57:36,920 Speaker 1: it's not about them, it's about you. And your husband 832 00:57:37,440 --> 00:57:40,560 Speaker 1: really needs to grow up here. Um, he needs to 833 00:57:40,560 --> 00:57:43,720 Speaker 1: speak up for you on your behalf. You're his wife. 834 00:57:43,920 --> 00:57:47,240 Speaker 1: You should come first. Okay, he shouldn't let anyone. I 835 00:57:47,280 --> 00:57:48,840 Speaker 1: don't care who it is. I don't care if it's 836 00:57:48,880 --> 00:57:52,760 Speaker 1: this crazy daughter that he has his meddling ex wife, anyone, 837 00:57:53,320 --> 00:57:56,120 Speaker 1: Uh come before you and treat you this way. My 838 00:57:56,280 --> 00:58:00,080 Speaker 1: husband always defends his daughter's actions and how he treats me. 839 00:58:00,400 --> 00:58:03,000 Speaker 1: Why is he defending her? Why isn't he defending you? 840 00:58:03,320 --> 00:58:06,840 Speaker 1: His wife, that's who, and you need to let him know, uh, 841 00:58:07,720 --> 00:58:10,280 Speaker 1: what is going on here? I'm your wife. He knows that, 842 00:58:10,400 --> 00:58:12,560 Speaker 1: but you haven't spoken up for yourself. You need to 843 00:58:12,680 --> 00:58:14,600 Speaker 1: let your husband know how it's going to be from 844 00:58:14,640 --> 00:58:16,840 Speaker 1: this day forward. He needs to You all need to 845 00:58:16,880 --> 00:58:20,160 Speaker 1: be a unit, present that unit to the family and 846 00:58:20,360 --> 00:58:22,880 Speaker 1: deal with it that way. Okay, maybe the daughter will 847 00:58:22,920 --> 00:58:26,160 Speaker 1: back down once she sees that the husband respects you 848 00:58:26,480 --> 00:58:28,800 Speaker 1: and sticks up for you, But you gotta stick up 849 00:58:28,840 --> 00:58:32,800 Speaker 1: for yourself to your husband first. Steve, Well, this is 850 00:58:32,880 --> 00:58:38,880 Speaker 1: a complete mess. Blended families are always difficult. I've had 851 00:58:38,960 --> 00:58:42,880 Speaker 1: my share of difficulties with it myself, especially when you're 852 00:58:42,880 --> 00:58:46,280 Speaker 1: dealing with these grown kids because they have their own 853 00:58:46,560 --> 00:58:50,360 Speaker 1: ideas of what they think should be had. I listened 854 00:58:50,480 --> 00:58:54,920 Speaker 1: to our grown kids. Marjorie, I probably wouldn't have got 855 00:58:55,040 --> 00:58:59,280 Speaker 1: married because they weren't bowling and decided, uh, since we're 856 00:58:59,360 --> 00:59:01,600 Speaker 1: just in him in them, that they don't think we 857 00:59:01,640 --> 00:59:05,040 Speaker 1: should get married. I call him a bunch of stupid 858 00:59:05,080 --> 00:59:09,760 Speaker 1: blankety blanks and walked out the room, simply because how 859 00:59:09,920 --> 00:59:12,800 Speaker 1: y'all ignorant? Asked gonna tell me something? Ain't none of 860 00:59:12,880 --> 00:59:16,640 Speaker 1: y'all got a husband, a wife, or a child. Now 861 00:59:16,720 --> 00:59:19,320 Speaker 1: you're gonna tell me how to behave So I can 862 00:59:19,480 --> 00:59:23,560 Speaker 1: understand that it's gotten way better since then, but that's 863 00:59:23,600 --> 00:59:27,240 Speaker 1: still friction every now and then. Your problem is that 864 00:59:27,400 --> 00:59:32,400 Speaker 1: the daughter has sided with the mother who is his 865 00:59:33,040 --> 00:59:38,280 Speaker 1: ex wife. She's totally taking her side. Not that's something 866 00:59:38,360 --> 00:59:40,720 Speaker 1: wrong with his ex wife, because if it wasn't, it 867 00:59:40,800 --> 00:59:44,120 Speaker 1: wouldn't be his ex wife, it would be his current wife. 868 00:59:45,000 --> 00:59:48,040 Speaker 1: My husband's ex wife constantly intrudes in our marriage and 869 00:59:48,120 --> 00:59:52,080 Speaker 1: then her daughter's marriage. Well I thought you said his 870 00:59:52,240 --> 00:59:54,600 Speaker 1: sons are happily married, but his daughter is not. Oh 871 00:59:54,720 --> 00:59:58,360 Speaker 1: that means she's married but not happ Okay, Well, see, 872 00:59:58,960 --> 01:00:01,440 Speaker 1: first of all, his ex wife doesn't know how to 873 01:00:01,560 --> 01:00:05,720 Speaker 1: have a successful marriage, so any information that she's intruding 874 01:00:05,800 --> 01:00:08,520 Speaker 1: on with her daughter's marriage. Ain't gonna be helpful to 875 01:00:08,680 --> 01:00:11,000 Speaker 1: his daughter her daughter because she don't know how to 876 01:00:11,080 --> 01:00:14,840 Speaker 1: have a healthy marriage, and spreading dissension is her way. 877 01:00:15,520 --> 01:00:20,360 Speaker 1: So now the daughter can't stand you. Now what your 878 01:00:20,480 --> 01:00:24,080 Speaker 1: daughters is is. You are not welcome at any of 879 01:00:24,160 --> 01:00:28,160 Speaker 1: the grandchildren's birthday parties or family get togethers because of her. 880 01:00:28,640 --> 01:00:31,600 Speaker 1: I tried for many years and have relationship with my stepdaughter, 881 01:00:31,800 --> 01:00:34,680 Speaker 1: but she's not interested. I run around and buy things 882 01:00:34,760 --> 01:00:37,320 Speaker 1: for her children and help her father get gifts for 883 01:00:37,440 --> 01:00:41,160 Speaker 1: her children. She would only thank her husband. She would 884 01:00:41,200 --> 01:00:45,440 Speaker 1: only think my husband the lady. She's never told me 885 01:00:45,560 --> 01:00:48,040 Speaker 1: thank you. She refers to our home as her dad's house. 886 01:00:48,520 --> 01:00:50,640 Speaker 1: It hurts my feeling that she does not respect my 887 01:00:50,760 --> 01:00:54,360 Speaker 1: marriage to her dad, and you have every right to 888 01:00:54,400 --> 01:00:57,880 Speaker 1: be her. So what do you do? At one point, 889 01:00:58,880 --> 01:01:01,560 Speaker 1: it takes two to tank if the other person it 890 01:01:01,640 --> 01:01:03,520 Speaker 1: takes two people to take. It takes two people to 891 01:01:03,560 --> 01:01:07,080 Speaker 1: have a relationship. Relationship is two people. She don't want 892 01:01:07,120 --> 01:01:12,360 Speaker 1: the relationship. I agree with Shirley. Stop stop buying stuff 893 01:01:12,400 --> 01:01:15,480 Speaker 1: for the grandkids and all this. Stop shopping for your 894 01:01:15,560 --> 01:01:20,480 Speaker 1: husband now. If you can't get respected, she don't talk 895 01:01:20,560 --> 01:01:24,160 Speaker 1: to you, she don't thank you. Then see, let him 896 01:01:24,240 --> 01:01:28,400 Speaker 1: go buy stuff for the grandkids. Now, he caught between 897 01:01:28,440 --> 01:01:30,840 Speaker 1: the rock and a hard place, and we're gonna get 898 01:01:30,840 --> 01:01:32,920 Speaker 1: to that after the break. But he caught between the 899 01:01:33,200 --> 01:01:35,120 Speaker 1: rock and complay because I know what he tried to 900 01:01:35,440 --> 01:01:37,600 Speaker 1: He tries to make it better by making up lies 901 01:01:37,640 --> 01:01:40,040 Speaker 1: about the hys daughter says to tell me hi when 902 01:01:40,080 --> 01:01:44,920 Speaker 1: they talk. She already knows that's you know, good, Well, 903 01:01:45,000 --> 01:01:49,560 Speaker 1: let's said hi to me's she ain't ever said hi 904 01:01:49,720 --> 01:01:52,440 Speaker 1: to me, and I've been right here. But when the 905 01:01:52,560 --> 01:01:56,560 Speaker 1: hell she started sending a message? So you already noticed crazy. 906 01:01:56,640 --> 01:01:59,920 Speaker 1: But oh dude, he don't want you hurting the guy. 907 01:02:00,000 --> 01:02:02,560 Speaker 1: I ain't bad. He don't want you to hurt. But 908 01:02:02,680 --> 01:02:05,800 Speaker 1: at one point time a decision has got to be made. 909 01:02:07,000 --> 01:02:12,960 Speaker 1: His loyalty is to you, period. But he's suffering from 910 01:02:13,120 --> 01:02:16,880 Speaker 1: guilt though. You gotta understand his daughter is making him 911 01:02:16,920 --> 01:02:25,480 Speaker 1: feel guilty over the mom's condition mental stability. Oh this man, 912 01:02:26,880 --> 01:02:30,480 Speaker 1: and so you gotta you gotta understand that.

Even if he wants 1096 01:17:08,000 --> 01:17:12,400 Speaker 1: to talk about something besides food, the conversation inevitably goes 1097 01:17:12,520 --> 01:17:15,920 Speaker 1: back to him being a great chef. The email goes 1098 01:17:15,960 --> 01:17:18,919 Speaker 1: on to say, I have a friend working for candidate 1099 01:17:19,000 --> 01:17:22,360 Speaker 1: running for office, and every conversation in which she protects 1100 01:17:22,720 --> 01:17:27,160 Speaker 1: inevitably turns into politics.

I am exhausted 1313 01:32:44,320 --> 01:32:48,160 Speaker 1: with the fact that the color of my skin has 1314 01:32:48,240 --> 01:32:52,760 Speaker 1: to come into play in my everyday life, my just 1315 01:32:53,040 --> 01:32:58,639 Speaker 1: day to day. I don't know. I really can't think 1316 01:32:58,680 --> 01:33:02,280 Speaker 1: of any days really pistically why I do not have 1317 01:33:02,439 --> 01:33:05,560 Speaker 1: to consider the color of my skin, the shape of 1318 01:33:05,680 --> 01:33:09,920 Speaker 1: my nose and my lips wherever I go. The situation 1319 01:33:10,040 --> 01:33:13,840 Speaker 1: I'm in, I very rarely I can think of a 1320 01:33:13,960 --> 01:33:18,920 Speaker 1: day that I'm not made aware of it or I 1321 01:33:19,080 --> 01:33:24,479 Speaker 1: have to factor it in. If you're not a person 1322 01:33:24,600 --> 01:33:28,240 Speaker 1: of color or minority, you may not even be able 1323 01:33:28,280 --> 01:33:31,840 Speaker 1: to understand what I'm saying. But I'll just give you 1324 01:33:31,880 --> 01:33:37,759 Speaker 1: an example. When riding in the car and being stopped 1325 01:33:37,760 --> 01:33:40,320 Speaker 1: by the police as me and my buddy Greg Calhoun 1326 01:33:40,439 --> 01:33:42,960 Speaker 1: was doing last year after golf out in coming from 1327 01:33:43,000 --> 01:33:46,280 Speaker 1: Montgomery to Alabama and his car and we were speeding 1328 01:33:46,800 --> 01:33:48,960 Speaker 1: and we were supposed to get pulled over. We were speeding. 1329 01:33:49,920 --> 01:33:54,120 Speaker 1: But what I had to do was immediately become aware 1330 01:33:55,280 --> 01:33:58,760 Speaker 1: that I am a black man. Skip your money in 1331 01:33:58,880 --> 01:34:01,920 Speaker 1: your fame. I don't have time to throw that out 1332 01:34:01,960 --> 01:34:05,080 Speaker 1: at you. I got to get and start preparing myself. 1333 01:34:06,000 --> 01:34:10,000 Speaker 1: As the officer approaches the car, I must understand without 1334 01:34:10,080 --> 01:34:13,120 Speaker 1: him getting my I D I'm a black man, just 1335 01:34:13,640 --> 01:34:17,360 Speaker 1: a black man. So I put my hands up on 1336 01:34:17,439 --> 01:34:22,639 Speaker 1: the dashboard and the officer came to the passengers side 1337 01:34:22,680 --> 01:34:25,760 Speaker 1: and said, why is your hands on the dashboard? I said, 1338 01:34:25,840 --> 01:34:28,320 Speaker 1: because I don't want nothing to happen to me. The 1339 01:34:28,479 --> 01:34:33,360 Speaker 1: officer said, while that's acting mighty suspicious. I said, no, 1340 01:34:33,479 --> 01:34:36,719 Speaker 1: it's not. I'm just being safe, officer. If you don't mind, 1341 01:34:37,479 --> 01:34:39,800 Speaker 1: she said, well, I'll need to see I D. I said, 1342 01:34:39,840 --> 01:34:42,760 Speaker 1: my I D happens to be in a pouch in 1343 01:34:42,840 --> 01:34:45,639 Speaker 1: the back seat. I would have to reach. She said, 1344 01:34:45,680 --> 01:34:49,559 Speaker 1: we'll go ahead, and I was tense because I didn't 1345 01:34:49,600 --> 01:34:52,720 Speaker 1: I didn't want to be mistaken. When I'm on an 1346 01:34:52,800 --> 01:34:56,800 Speaker 1: elevator and I get on, I am conscious of the 1347 01:34:56,920 --> 01:34:59,840 Speaker 1: fact that me and my guy are the only ones 1348 01:35:00,080 --> 01:35:03,080 Speaker 1: on the elevator. When I go to golf courses and 1349 01:35:03,200 --> 01:35:07,240 Speaker 1: I oftentimes see that there are hardy any African Americans 1350 01:35:07,280 --> 01:35:11,439 Speaker 1: out here, It's just me and one maybe the force 1351 01:35:11,479 --> 01:35:14,920 Speaker 1: something that I'm playing with, and and and I'm just 1352 01:35:15,080 --> 01:35:18,599 Speaker 1: always aware of it. If you're not that, you don't 1353 01:35:18,640 --> 01:35:21,720 Speaker 1: have to be aware of it. But it's the awareness 1354 01:35:21,800 --> 01:35:24,880 Speaker 1: that becomes draining at times. It's the fact that you've 1355 01:35:24,880 --> 01:35:26,960 Speaker 1: got to be the only one on your floor, the 1356 01:35:27,040 --> 01:35:30,120 Speaker 1: only one on the elevator, the only one in the cubicle, 1357 01:35:30,400 --> 01:35:32,920 Speaker 1: the only one in your department, the only one at 1358 01:35:32,960 --> 01:35:36,040 Speaker 1: the meeting, the only one in the cafeteria, the only 1359 01:35:36,160 --> 01:35:39,320 Speaker 1: one on the on the trip, the only one, the 1360 01:35:39,520 --> 01:35:42,479 Speaker 1: only one at the hotel, at the front desk, the 1361 01:35:42,720 --> 01:35:47,160 Speaker 1: only one, the only one, the only one's kids that's 1362 01:35:47,200 --> 01:35:49,960 Speaker 1: in the recital, the only one's kids that's at the 1363 01:35:50,240 --> 01:35:53,120 Speaker 1: that's on the soccer team, the only one, the only one, 1364 01:35:53,560 --> 01:35:58,520 Speaker 1: the only one, the only one. Gets to be exhausting 1365 01:35:58,720 --> 01:36:03,880 Speaker 1: at times. This will not change. And two more people 1366 01:36:04,640 --> 01:36:09,400 Speaker 1: who are not of color, can try to empathize or 1367 01:36:09,479 --> 01:36:15,720 Speaker 1: sympathize or generalize or something with us to say, you 1368 01:36:15,800 --> 01:36:19,080 Speaker 1: know what, I don't know how that feels, but I 1369 01:36:19,200 --> 01:36:23,360 Speaker 1: bet that ain't right, because, as I've often said many times, 1370 01:36:23,760 --> 01:36:26,880 Speaker 1: slavery didn't end just because black people got sick of 1371 01:36:26,960 --> 01:36:30,519 Speaker 1: being slaves. We were sick of it the thought of it. 1372 01:36:31,320 --> 01:36:34,920 Speaker 1: When they put us on them boats. Nobody wanted to 1373 01:36:35,080 --> 01:36:37,960 Speaker 1: ride the boat over here and come be no slaves. 1374 01:36:38,680 --> 01:36:41,880 Speaker 1: Nobody was under the belly of them slave ships, going, man, 1375 01:36:42,040 --> 01:36:45,760 Speaker 1: this is nice. It's gonna be a new opportunity. Nobody. 1376 01:36:46,840 --> 01:36:50,160 Speaker 1: So I want to wake up and just see what 1377 01:36:50,240 --> 01:36:52,599 Speaker 1: it feels like to just go about my day without 1378 01:36:52,680 --> 01:36:56,120 Speaker 1: having to calculate my race, without to have to calculate 1379 01:36:56,200 --> 01:36:59,960 Speaker 1: the color of my skin, to watch other people get 1380 01:37:00,120 --> 01:37:02,840 Speaker 1: paid a certain amount of money and then you don't 1381 01:37:02,880 --> 01:37:05,240 Speaker 1: get paid a certain amount of money with the same 1382 01:37:05,520 --> 01:37:08,120 Speaker 1: type of ratings, and then you got you got to 1383 01:37:08,160 --> 01:37:12,280 Speaker 1: incorporate something else again. Now, I've been very blessed with 1384 01:37:12,360 --> 01:37:15,160 Speaker 1: the life that I have, and I would not trade 1385 01:37:15,240 --> 01:37:18,040 Speaker 1: mind for anything. With all this sick and tired of 1386 01:37:18,160 --> 01:37:24,280 Speaker 1: being sick and tired. Also what makes this also tolerable. 1387 01:37:24,400 --> 01:37:27,280 Speaker 1: For me, it is my love of who I am, 1388 01:37:28,600 --> 01:37:32,840 Speaker 1: my love of our power to overcome, our power to 1389 01:37:33,560 --> 01:37:38,200 Speaker 1: maintain in the struggle, our power to still be something 1390 01:37:38,640 --> 01:37:42,040 Speaker 1: where we were brought here to simply be nothing, So 1391 01:37:42,200 --> 01:37:45,879 Speaker 1: for us to have accomplished what we've accomplished. I'm grateful 1392 01:37:45,920 --> 01:37:48,599 Speaker 1: and awful proud of that. So I guess my pride 1393 01:37:48,680 --> 01:37:51,679 Speaker 1: just keeps me going on. I hope that guy will 1394 01:37:51,800 --> 01:37:56,000 Speaker 1: continue to let whatever light that I can let shine 1395 01:37:56,040 --> 01:38:00,400 Speaker 1: through my existence to inspire someone else to overcome when 1396 01:38:00,479 --> 01:38:03,200 Speaker 1: it looked like you ain't gonna make it. Because that's 1397 01:38:03,280 --> 01:38:06,240 Speaker 1: exactly what I've done, by the grace of God. I 1398 01:38:06,360 --> 01:38:09,519 Speaker 1: have overcome against all the odds, even when they said 1399 01:38:09,560 --> 01:38:12,360 Speaker 1: I wasn't gonna make it. And even though I'm tired 1400 01:38:12,439 --> 01:38:16,000 Speaker 1: of being tired, I wouldn't trade places and be nothing else, 1401 01:38:16,080 --> 01:38:19,080 Speaker 1: know how, because in this struggle has taught me so 1402 01:38:19,240 --> 01:38:22,840 Speaker 1: many For all Steve Every contests, no purchase necessary, void 1403 01:38:22,880 --> 01:38:26,160 Speaker 1: where prohibited participants must be legal US residents at least 1404 01:38:26,280 --> 01:38:30,000 Speaker 1: eighteen years old unless otherwise stated.
