<v Speaker 1>you are a donkey today does not discriminate. I might

0:00:12.360 --> 0:00:13.800
<v Speaker 1>not have the song of today, but I got to

0:00:13.880 --> 0:00:16.160
<v Speaker 1>don't get that you feel I need to be a

0:00:16.239 --> 0:00:23.520
<v Speaker 1>donky man breakfast club bitches. He just don't give today today. Yeah,

0:00:23.560 --> 0:00:25.400
<v Speaker 1>I couldn't wait to get to this one last week.

0:00:25.480 --> 0:00:27.640
<v Speaker 1>Don't get to day from Monday in November twenty eighth

0:00:27.680 --> 0:00:32.400
<v Speaker 1>goes to Aaron Franklin Brink. Who is Aaron Franklin Blink?

0:00:32.600 --> 0:00:34.560
<v Speaker 1>Is it Blink or brink Holing? Let me make sure

0:00:34.920 --> 0:00:39.480
<v Speaker 1>it is Aaron Brink, Yes, Aaron Brink. Aaron Franklin Brink. Well,

0:00:39.520 --> 0:00:42.000
<v Speaker 1>he is the father of Anderson Lee all Rich, who

0:00:42.040 --> 0:00:44.760
<v Speaker 1>is the twenty two year old who allegedly got to

0:00:44.760 --> 0:00:48.120
<v Speaker 1>say allegedly carried out a deadly shooting at Club Q

0:00:48.600 --> 0:00:51.800
<v Speaker 1>and Colorado springs condolences to everyone who lost their life

0:00:51.800 --> 0:00:55.560
<v Speaker 1>and that tragic shooting, sending healing energy to everyone who

0:00:55.640 --> 0:00:59.160
<v Speaker 1>was injured in this tragic mass shooting. Anderson has been

0:00:59.200 --> 0:01:01.960
<v Speaker 1>charged with five counts the first degree murder and five

0:01:02.040 --> 0:01:06.520
<v Speaker 1>counts of bias motivated crimes causing bodily injury. The bias

0:01:06.560 --> 0:01:10.600
<v Speaker 1>of course, was because Club Q was an LGBTQ bar. Now,

0:01:10.600 --> 0:01:13.720
<v Speaker 1>if you're a parent and someone comes to you and

0:01:13.760 --> 0:01:17.200
<v Speaker 1>tells you that your child did something so heinous like

0:01:17.240 --> 0:01:20.679
<v Speaker 1>a mass shooting, I can imagine the plethora of emotions

0:01:20.720 --> 0:01:24.200
<v Speaker 1>that run through you. Actually, who am I fooling? I

0:01:24.240 --> 0:01:27.200
<v Speaker 1>can't imagine what the plethora of emotions that would run

0:01:27.240 --> 0:01:29.920
<v Speaker 1>through you would be, even though I know that it

0:01:30.160 --> 0:01:33.000
<v Speaker 1>indeed would be a plethora of emotions. I just can't

0:01:33.040 --> 0:01:36.080
<v Speaker 1>imagine what a parent would actually feel, But I would

0:01:36.080 --> 0:01:39.240
<v Speaker 1>think it would be concerned for both my child and

0:01:39.319 --> 0:01:41.399
<v Speaker 1>the people he hurt and killed. We all feel a

0:01:41.440 --> 0:01:44.120
<v Speaker 1>sense of hurt and pain whenever we hear of these

0:01:44.160 --> 0:01:46.240
<v Speaker 1>mass shootings. I know I do, because it's just a

0:01:46.319 --> 0:01:50.000
<v Speaker 1>reminder that we aren't safe anywhere. Okay, every day we

0:01:50.040 --> 0:01:52.800
<v Speaker 1>are trying to avoid other people's crazy. Every day we

0:01:52.880 --> 0:01:55.960
<v Speaker 1>are trying to avoid other people's projections. So when it happens,

0:01:56.160 --> 0:01:59.720
<v Speaker 1>you automatically feel sorry for these people who lost their

0:01:59.760 --> 0:02:03.480
<v Speaker 1>lives simply because one individual hated their own. Yes, you

0:02:03.560 --> 0:02:06.400
<v Speaker 1>have to hate yourself something serious to wake up and say,

0:02:06.440 --> 0:02:09.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to project this hate I have for myself

0:02:09.120 --> 0:02:12.960
<v Speaker 1>onto others. I'm gonna project this hurt and pain i'm feeling.

0:02:13.040 --> 0:02:15.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna go share it by taking out as many

0:02:15.600 --> 0:02:18.000
<v Speaker 1>people as I can today. I really wish folks who

0:02:18.080 --> 0:02:20.200
<v Speaker 1>felt this way would either get some real help, or

0:02:20.240 --> 0:02:22.680
<v Speaker 1>if you want to kill someone, start with yourself first,

0:02:22.800 --> 0:02:26.040
<v Speaker 1>because I'm sick of seeing innocent lives being lost because

0:02:26.080 --> 0:02:28.560
<v Speaker 1>folks won't deal with the real problem. And that's the

0:02:28.600 --> 0:02:30.560
<v Speaker 1>person staring back at them in the mirror. And I'm

0:02:30.600 --> 0:02:33.040
<v Speaker 1>saying all I have to say, Yes, that has to

0:02:33.080 --> 0:02:36.600
<v Speaker 1>be a lot for a parent to handle well. Aaron

0:02:36.880 --> 0:02:40.280
<v Speaker 1>Franklin Brink had a lot of things running through his

0:02:40.320 --> 0:02:43.240
<v Speaker 1>mind when he found out his son had hurt and

0:02:43.320 --> 0:02:45.960
<v Speaker 1>killed all those people in Club Q. But one of

0:02:45.960 --> 0:02:48.720
<v Speaker 1>those things is a mindset that probably led to things

0:02:48.720 --> 0:02:51.920
<v Speaker 1>like the Club Q shooting happening. Let's listen. So his

0:02:52.000 --> 0:02:54.799
<v Speaker 1>attorney has called you, yes, sir, and they said your

0:02:54.800 --> 0:02:56.799
<v Speaker 1>son wants to talk with you. Why did they call you?

0:02:57.320 --> 0:03:00.080
<v Speaker 1>Actually didn't say he wants to talk to me, They

0:03:00.120 --> 0:03:02.960
<v Speaker 1>said it happened. Happened. They start telling you what the incident,

0:03:03.040 --> 0:03:06.520
<v Speaker 1>about the incidents, we're just shooting involving you know, multiple people,

0:03:07.080 --> 0:03:08.760
<v Speaker 1>and then I go on they're on going to find

0:03:08.760 --> 0:03:15.960
<v Speaker 1>it the gay bar, yeah right, and gay and it's okay,

0:03:16.000 --> 0:03:21.200
<v Speaker 1>So it's exists. Well, you guys have had conversations about that.

0:03:21.240 --> 0:03:31.400
<v Speaker 1>You were your Republican and we don't do gay, gay,

0:03:31.440 --> 0:03:35.160
<v Speaker 1>we don't do gay. Yeah. So you mean to tell

0:03:35.200 --> 0:03:38.120
<v Speaker 1>me that you just found out your son killed multiple

0:03:38.120 --> 0:03:40.280
<v Speaker 1>people at a gay bar. And one of the first

0:03:40.320 --> 0:03:42.120
<v Speaker 1>things that you think about one of the first questions

0:03:42.120 --> 0:03:46.280
<v Speaker 1>that come to your mind, God, is he gay? That's

0:03:46.280 --> 0:03:48.800
<v Speaker 1>what you care about at a time like this. I

0:03:48.840 --> 0:03:51.240
<v Speaker 1>don't know if he's gad not, but he's certainly a murderer.

0:03:51.480 --> 0:03:54.360
<v Speaker 1>And in regards to lack of empathy, that apple clearly

0:03:54.360 --> 0:03:56.280
<v Speaker 1>don't fall too far from the tree, all right. I

0:03:56.320 --> 0:03:58.720
<v Speaker 1>don't know how much time this man spending this son's life.

0:03:58.840 --> 0:04:02.400
<v Speaker 1>When you see these people who are morally opposed to

0:04:02.520 --> 0:04:05.960
<v Speaker 1>homosexuality because of faith, like this man, like this man

0:04:06.120 --> 0:04:08.160
<v Speaker 1>is oh, because he says, he's a moment that I'm

0:04:08.200 --> 0:04:10.600
<v Speaker 1>sure that is a belief that was spread in that household,

0:04:10.680 --> 0:04:13.600
<v Speaker 1>or at least to his son a lot, all right,

0:04:13.640 --> 0:04:15.960
<v Speaker 1>And that faith can make someone go from this is

0:04:16.000 --> 0:04:18.800
<v Speaker 1>wrong in the eyes of God to this is evil.

0:04:18.960 --> 0:04:21.240
<v Speaker 1>So I have to stop these people at all costs,

0:04:21.240 --> 0:04:24.800
<v Speaker 1>and sadly now we are here. You don't care that

0:04:24.880 --> 0:04:26.760
<v Speaker 1>your son as a murderer. You don't care he's gonna

0:04:26.760 --> 0:04:28.520
<v Speaker 1>spend the rest of his life in prison. You don't

0:04:28.520 --> 0:04:31.080
<v Speaker 1>care that all these people are killed. You don't care

0:04:31.080 --> 0:04:32.920
<v Speaker 1>that all these people that have been shot and injured.

0:04:33.160 --> 0:04:36.320
<v Speaker 1>All you care about is whether your son was gay

0:04:36.400 --> 0:04:38.760
<v Speaker 1>or not. His sexuality has nothing to do with the

0:04:38.760 --> 0:04:41.080
<v Speaker 1>trouble he's in, sir, okay. But the fact you care

0:04:41.120 --> 0:04:44.320
<v Speaker 1>so much about that is exactly why things like the

0:04:44.360 --> 0:04:47.440
<v Speaker 1>club que shooting happened. Because we are all too busy

0:04:47.760 --> 0:04:50.640
<v Speaker 1>worrying about what the next person is doing with their body,

0:04:50.920 --> 0:04:55.039
<v Speaker 1>and we are all too busy policing and attempting to

0:04:55.160 --> 0:04:59.520
<v Speaker 1>be the judge, jury and in this case, executioner of

0:04:59.520 --> 0:05:03.320
<v Speaker 1>what people who do with their bodies. Please let me remark,

0:05:03.360 --> 0:05:07.560
<v Speaker 1>give Aaron Franklin break the biggest he hall, heh, heh.

0:05:08.200 --> 0:05:13.760
<v Speaker 1>You stupid? Are you dumb? All right? Well, thank you

0:05:13.800 --> 0:05:18.200
<v Speaker 1>for that, Dunky. Today, m let's open up the phone

0:05:18.240 --> 0:05:20.920
<v Speaker 1>lines eight hundred five eight five one oh five one.

0:05:21.000 --> 0:05:23.200
<v Speaker 1>Let's discuss a topic that I'm sure it's on a

0:05:23.279 --> 0:05:25.440
<v Speaker 1>lot of people's mind. This morning as they're waking up.

0:05:25.960 --> 0:05:27.920
<v Speaker 1>It's like two things. It's like two things that I

0:05:28.000 --> 0:05:30.839
<v Speaker 1>feel like a lot of people think about after Thanksgiving.

0:05:31.440 --> 0:05:36.880
<v Speaker 1>Let's stand one, when do you put your Christmas decorations up? Okay,

0:05:36.960 --> 0:05:39.560
<v Speaker 1>that's a tough one. Yeah, personally they already up in

0:05:39.640 --> 0:05:42.040
<v Speaker 1>our house. They after Thanksgiving, they gotta go up, you

0:05:42.120 --> 0:05:43.800
<v Speaker 1>know what I mean, because you know the way that

0:05:44.320 --> 0:05:46.880
<v Speaker 1>these days have been flying by. It will be Christmas tomorrow,

0:05:47.160 --> 0:05:49.760
<v Speaker 1>so you know, let's get let's let's let's enjoy the moment.

0:05:50.080 --> 0:05:53.360
<v Speaker 1>Mine are already up. Second, up Wednesday. And the reason

0:05:53.400 --> 0:05:55.560
<v Speaker 1>Wednesday is because Wednesday is supposed to be sixty degree.

0:05:55.640 --> 0:05:57.719
<v Speaker 1>So as I start putting this stuff up, it's gonna

0:05:57.720 --> 0:05:59.080
<v Speaker 1>be kind of hotter. They ain't gonna be too cold.

0:05:59.120 --> 0:06:02.000
<v Speaker 1>But that that's my day, okay, okay, okay. And second

0:06:02.240 --> 0:06:05.040
<v Speaker 1>is when do you stop eating leftover? It's not for me.

0:06:05.760 --> 0:06:09.080
<v Speaker 1>All leftovers are easy to stop, but that damn pie,

0:06:10.279 --> 0:06:13.320
<v Speaker 1>that pie, that sweep with tato pie, it's very hard

0:06:13.400 --> 0:06:15.120
<v Speaker 1>to stop eating. I don't know how you stop eating

0:06:15.160 --> 0:06:20.120
<v Speaker 1>sweeper tato pie. And tell us guard m see see here.

0:06:21.520 --> 0:06:23.760
<v Speaker 1>We kind of eat the food until it's it's damn

0:06:23.839 --> 0:06:26.400
<v Speaker 1>they're good because I know y'all not punky this no,

0:06:26.880 --> 0:06:30.040
<v Speaker 1>but see we hit we eat ham for breakfast with

0:06:30.200 --> 0:06:32.760
<v Speaker 1>waffles and pancakes, which is amazing. We put we chop

0:06:32.880 --> 0:06:34.720
<v Speaker 1>it up and put it in our ham and cheese omelet.

0:06:35.240 --> 0:06:37.960
<v Speaker 1>Good money turkey. We don't really messed with the turkey

0:06:38.040 --> 0:06:39.720
<v Speaker 1>like that. You know, it's cool to eat. The kids

0:06:39.760 --> 0:06:42.400
<v Speaker 1>just want to say to eat turkey. But the pies

0:06:42.760 --> 0:06:45.720
<v Speaker 1>and the cheesecake and all that. I think today is

0:06:45.720 --> 0:06:47.960
<v Speaker 1>the last day. Do you think today is the last

0:06:48.040 --> 0:06:52.479
<v Speaker 1>day for the pie? Yeah, if there's not, If there's

0:06:52.520 --> 0:06:54.720
<v Speaker 1>some leftover, bro, you might throw everything else. Ide. You

0:06:54.760 --> 0:06:57.200
<v Speaker 1>ain't throwing off that sweep tato pie. Bro. Bro, it

0:06:57.360 --> 0:07:00.040
<v Speaker 1>was Thursday, Thanksgiving, so that means they probably perch you

0:07:00.080 --> 0:07:08.200
<v Speaker 1>sit on Wednesday. So that's Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday.

0:07:08.480 --> 0:07:12.960
<v Speaker 1>Six days. Now you're you're on the fence of possibly

0:07:13.080 --> 0:07:16.360
<v Speaker 1>mold and possibly having a diarrhea attack and happening to

0:07:16.400 --> 0:07:18.960
<v Speaker 1>go to to that. If it's mold, than you throw

0:07:19.000 --> 0:07:20.480
<v Speaker 1>it out. But if it ain't no more, it's hard

0:07:20.480 --> 0:07:24.080
<v Speaker 1>to get rid of that sweep taive bro. All right,

0:07:24.080 --> 0:07:27.240
<v Speaker 1>well let's open up the phone lines eight hundred five

0:07:27.320 --> 0:07:30.600

<v Speaker 1>are you hanging up your decorations? I ain't gonna lie.

0:07:36.360 --> 0:07:38.320
<v Speaker 1>I really didn't feel like hanging up the decorations of

0:07:38.400 --> 0:07:40.720
<v Speaker 1>this shit. I don't know why. It just maybe baby,

0:07:40.720 --> 0:07:42.320
<v Speaker 1>it's going too fast. I feel like when O Blink

0:07:42.400 --> 0:07:44.040
<v Speaker 1>is gonna be over, I'll have to take him down. Nah,

0:07:44.080 --> 0:07:46.720
<v Speaker 1>we put them. We put them in right after Thanksgiving

0:07:46.880 --> 0:07:50.800
<v Speaker 1>Friday and went up. Now, yeah, you still eating your well,

0:07:50.840 --> 0:07:52.320

0:07:52.360 --> 0:07:53.880
<v Speaker 1>in the crib, but with the fan, I think you

0:07:53.960 --> 0:07:56.760
<v Speaker 1>out the country right. I actually got back for Thanksgiving.

0:07:56.840 --> 0:07:59.800
<v Speaker 1>My parents came over. That was it. I'm gonna be honest.

0:08:00.760 --> 0:08:03.600
<v Speaker 1>I feel bad about this, and I know they're probably listening.

0:08:04.080 --> 0:08:07.560
<v Speaker 1>I was supposed to see my family on Saturday and

0:08:07.680 --> 0:08:09.640
<v Speaker 1>have a dinner, but my brother and I ended up

0:08:09.680 --> 0:08:11.960
<v Speaker 1>going to Tillies in Brooklyn and getting drunk and we

0:08:12.000 --> 0:08:15.200
<v Speaker 1>didn't make it. Well, you know, things giving us Thursday,

0:08:15.240 --> 0:08:17.320
<v Speaker 1>not Saturday. I know my family always celebrates on a

0:08:17.360 --> 0:08:19.240
<v Speaker 1>different day so people could go see the other sides

0:08:19.280 --> 0:08:22.520
<v Speaker 1>of their families. So everybody's not rushing around, and so

0:08:22.720 --> 0:08:25.880
<v Speaker 1>we always do an alternate day so that you know,

0:08:26.000 --> 0:08:28.840
<v Speaker 1>the in laws can go see their sides of the family.

0:08:28.920 --> 0:08:33.079
<v Speaker 1>And then that's just like Friday. I mean, I'd be

0:08:33.160 --> 0:08:35.839
<v Speaker 1>really celebrating thingsgiving or are we just getting together with

0:08:35.960 --> 0:08:38.360
<v Speaker 1>family because people are, the games are on. It's like

0:08:38.480 --> 0:08:43.959
<v Speaker 1>a whole routine. No, no, we don't do that. And

0:08:44.040 --> 0:08:45.720
<v Speaker 1>then we don't want to get together on Black Friday

0:08:45.720 --> 0:08:49.559
<v Speaker 1>because my family's out shopping so trying to get some deals.

0:08:49.760 --> 0:08:53.720
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, that's just weird. But eight five eight five,

0:08:53.800 --> 0:08:56.160
<v Speaker 1>one on five one, when are you putting up them

0:08:56.200 --> 0:08:58.560
<v Speaker 1>Christmas decorations? And also when's the last day for them

0:08:58.640 --> 0:09:00.320
<v Speaker 1>left over? Let's talk about it. It's the break this Club,

0:09:00.360 --> 0:09:02.360
