1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,320 Speaker 1: Welcome to today's edition of The Clay Travis and Buck 2 00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:07,440 Speaker 1: Sexton Show podcast. Welcome in everybody, so the Clay Travis 3 00:00:07,440 --> 00:00:10,959 Speaker 1: and Buck Sexton Show on this Monday, June six. Appreciate 4 00:00:11,039 --> 00:00:14,840 Speaker 1: you joining in here, rolling with us. As is always 5 00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:17,760 Speaker 1: the case, after weekend, we are so anxious to lay 6 00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:20,680 Speaker 1: it all out for you. What has happened, what is happening, 7 00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:25,119 Speaker 1: and some big moments coming this week too. I know 8 00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:28,200 Speaker 1: in California got some important elections underway, will certainly be 9 00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:32,519 Speaker 1: talking about that. But over the weekend you saw a 10 00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:38,400 Speaker 1: lot of headlines about shootings that are classified as mass shootings. 11 00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:42,360 Speaker 1: Usually three or more people wounded by gunfire, I believe 12 00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:46,120 Speaker 1: is generally sometimes it's two or more, but multiple people 13 00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:50,280 Speaker 1: hit in a single shooting tends to qualify for data 14 00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:53,040 Speaker 1: purposes as a mass shooting, and there were a number 15 00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:55,560 Speaker 1: of them. We'll talk about what's going on there. And 16 00:00:56,120 --> 00:01:00,680 Speaker 1: also you may have seen these videos of a Pride 17 00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:07,959 Speaker 1: event in Dallas, Texas that it was it's just wildly inappropriate. 18 00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:10,440 Speaker 1: I don't know what else to say. You will look 19 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:12,440 Speaker 1: at these videos, clan, I'll talk to you about them. 20 00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:16,760 Speaker 1: But you have adult men dressed in thigh highs and 21 00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:21,440 Speaker 1: fishnets and g strings, dancing provocatively for an audience of 22 00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:26,360 Speaker 1: small children whose parents are with them, by the way, 23 00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:31,080 Speaker 1: for this and cheering and celebrating. Something is very wrong here, 24 00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 1: my friends. And we'll talk about the transagenda and how 25 00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 1: it affects children as well. We've got Naomi Wolf author 26 00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:42,840 Speaker 1: joining us later on the program. We'll be talking to 27 00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:45,800 Speaker 1: her about this and we've got a lot to get to. 28 00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 1: But McClay first off, for me, we often talk about 29 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:52,880 Speaker 1: a political reckoning. I think in advance of the mid 30 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:57,040 Speaker 1: term election, we are already starting to see a progressive 31 00:01:57,080 --> 00:02:01,680 Speaker 1: prosecutor reckoning. We look at where was there a lot 32 00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:05,360 Speaker 1: of horrific violence over the weekend. People being shot just 33 00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:07,040 Speaker 1: they were in a crowd, They in the wrong place 34 00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:10,000 Speaker 1: at the wrong time. There was a mass shooting in Philadelphia, 35 00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:13,160 Speaker 1: and there's video showing you on an absolutely packed street 36 00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:18,240 Speaker 1: in Philly. Three dead, fourteen hate by gunfire. There there 37 00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:22,840 Speaker 1: was a mass shooting in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Two dead from gunfire, 38 00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:27,480 Speaker 1: one run over and killed by a fleeing car, fourteen injured. 39 00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:30,320 Speaker 1: And those are just the ones that are getting the 40 00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 1: most attention from the press. But there were also mass 41 00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:38,720 Speaker 1: shootings in Grand Rapids, in Phoenix, in El Paso, in 42 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 1: I mentioned, Chattanooga, in Omaha, all of the country. What 43 00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:45,600 Speaker 1: is one of the things that we can say is 44 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:48,519 Speaker 1: that you find in common about so many of these shootings. 45 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:54,400 Speaker 1: They are occurring in places where criminal justice reform and 46 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:57,560 Speaker 1: progressive prosecutors have had their way for years. In a 47 00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:00,760 Speaker 1: place like Philadelphia, for example, they last hit their all 48 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 1: time murder record. In San Francisco and other places, the 49 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:08,639 Speaker 1: overall crime is through the roof theft, larceny, breaking and entering. 50 00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:11,800 Speaker 1: All of this, I think Clay, the American people have 51 00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 1: woken up to going soft on crime and acting like 52 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:19,200 Speaker 1: this is just our collective punishment because we don't do 53 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 1: enough social justice in this country. I think people are 54 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:25,600 Speaker 1: fed up with it in cities at least all across America. Yeah, 55 00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:30,639 Speaker 1: I think you're right, and the data is not complicated here. 56 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:34,680 Speaker 1: I think it's worth pointing out we have seen a 57 00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:40,080 Speaker 1: massive skyrocketing in violent crime since George Floyd in May 58 00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 1: of twenty twenty. Anyone who is trying to argue for 59 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:48,800 Speaker 1: any other explanation other than we have demonized police is 60 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:51,920 Speaker 1: one billion percent wrong based on the data at this point. 61 00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:53,760 Speaker 1: I think this is important, and I think it needs 62 00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:57,200 Speaker 1: to consistently be hammered. Home. We had Joe Biden address 63 00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:01,160 Speaker 1: was a Thursday of last week, twenty minute talk about 64 00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:05,119 Speaker 1: gun violence. Democrats have painted themselves into a corner here 65 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 1: because there is simultaneously a lack of enforcement of existing 66 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:16,159 Speaker 1: law and a demonization of police, which has led to 67 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:20,159 Speaker 1: a skyrocketing crime rate all over the country. And you 68 00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:25,280 Speaker 1: are seeing that is a reflection these mass shootings are. Now. 69 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:27,240 Speaker 1: Remember we talked about this, Bucket. I think it's important 70 00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:31,600 Speaker 1: to mention this too. Mass shootings are a small part 71 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 1: of the overall crime wave that we are seeing now. 72 00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:37,479 Speaker 1: They get a lot of attention, and right now the 73 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:40,200 Speaker 1: media is very fixated on them. But if we went out, 74 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:42,240 Speaker 1: buck you and I had a magic wand and we said, hey, 75 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:45,480 Speaker 1: we're going to solve every mass shooting in America, ninety 76 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:50,600 Speaker 1: nine percent of violent crime would still be occurring murders murders. 77 00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:53,600 Speaker 1: So this idea that suddenly, oh, if we just did 78 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:57,000 Speaker 1: away with mass shootings, we would address violent crime in 79 00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:59,839 Speaker 1: a massive way, is just not true. What we have 80 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:03,480 Speaker 1: to address is at the root cause of the violent crime, 81 00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 1: and I believe what's going on is police have been 82 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:09,240 Speaker 1: demonized to such an extent that they're not able to 83 00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:13,480 Speaker 1: do their jobs. A lot of them have quit. They're understaffed, overworked, 84 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 1: disrespected by prosecutors all over this country who when they 85 00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:20,760 Speaker 1: arrest someone they put them back out on the street 86 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:23,440 Speaker 1: and allow them to continue to propagate violence. So to me, 87 00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:26,720 Speaker 1: if you wanted to have a real conversation about reducing 88 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 1: violent crime, which by the way, I think everybody is 89 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 1: in favor of, right, let's not pretend this is like 90 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:35,760 Speaker 1: an actual complicated issue where there are many sides, then 91 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:38,360 Speaker 1: the solution to me seems pretty clear. You put more 92 00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 1: police back on the streets and you put violent criminals 93 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 1: behind bars. We know this because that's exactly what we 94 00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:49,560 Speaker 1: did in the early nineties and crime collapsed all over 95 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:54,920 Speaker 1: the country. There's also the additional component here where we've 96 00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:58,599 Speaker 1: talked a lot Clay about defund the police, which is 97 00:05:58,640 --> 00:06:03,600 Speaker 1: a big, a big part of this. Right, defund the police, 98 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:08,920 Speaker 1: m but what about the prosecutors. Because if you're looking 99 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:13,040 Speaker 1: for a place where the criminal justice system can break down, 100 00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 1: and there's really almost there's really no oversight other than 101 00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:20,080 Speaker 1: people voting them out right, you can up the number 102 00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:22,200 Speaker 1: of comps on the street. You can do you can 103 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:24,760 Speaker 1: use CompStat, you can actually deploy officers, that's what they 104 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:27,599 Speaker 1: have in New York City. But you can do databased 105 00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:31,680 Speaker 1: criminal data based um police and enforcement, And there's a 106 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:34,600 Speaker 1: lot of things you can do on a tactical level 107 00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:36,840 Speaker 1: to try to bring crime down in certain areas. But 108 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 1: if you have a prosecutor who is almost messianic, I mean, 109 00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:44,599 Speaker 1: who is a zealot in the desire to bring down 110 00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:48,360 Speaker 1: the number of people in prison, this is the mass incarceration. 111 00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:50,479 Speaker 1: We hear this all the time. There are whole books 112 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:53,200 Speaker 1: that were written years ago that were very influential on 113 00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:55,960 Speaker 1: the left about the the need to end the mass 114 00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:59,680 Speaker 1: incarceration states. So in places like Philadelphia they cut the 115 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:02,080 Speaker 1: prison population even a couple of years ago, I believe 116 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 1: the data was from about eight thousand to five thousand 117 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 1: in terms of how many people were being at any 118 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:10,120 Speaker 1: point in time. We're serving a sentence for a felony 119 00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 1: or serious crime. And we've seen this all over the country. 120 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 1: Where right now Krasner I'm sorry, not Krasner. Boudan in 121 00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:22,040 Speaker 1: San Francisco is facing a recall this week. Yes, why 122 00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 1: is he facing a recall because he came in Now 123 00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:26,840 Speaker 1: he's a far left radical. His parents are part of 124 00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:29,920 Speaker 1: the weather underground. They were part of the Brinks armored 125 00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:35,760 Speaker 1: car robbery. Larry Krasner in Philadelphia was a ponytailed antique cop, 126 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:40,120 Speaker 1: left wing activist defense attorney his entire life, who then 127 00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 1: all of a sudden decided I'm going to become the 128 00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:45,240 Speaker 1: district attorney. This was only possible because the media created 129 00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:50,239 Speaker 1: an enormous racial panic with Donald Trump's election. Oh my gosh, 130 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:52,080 Speaker 1: they used to say, people forget this now, I think 131 00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:54,920 Speaker 1: clay They said there was a white nationalist as the president, 132 00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:57,360 Speaker 1: not even that was rising in general terms. They say 133 00:07:57,360 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 1: Trump was a white nationalist. They created a racial so 134 00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:03,960 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, you had, obviously, the minority community, 135 00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 1: the black community America is hearing from Democrat media that 136 00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:08,560 Speaker 1: we're in the you know, we're in the worst place 137 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:12,040 Speaker 1: we've been in decades in terms of you know, racism, 138 00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:15,160 Speaker 1: and we have a white supremacist, a white supremacist they 139 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:17,920 Speaker 1: would say this in the white legitimately what they said, 140 00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:21,160 Speaker 1: and all of a sudden, these progressive prosecutors can count 141 00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:26,200 Speaker 1: on the mobilization of minority communities in major cities to 142 00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:31,920 Speaker 1: vote for the progressive and mass incarceration view, replacing Democrats. 143 00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:33,679 Speaker 1: By the way, this is what's so interesting. It's not 144 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 1: like these cities had right wing Republicans. They had Democrats, 145 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:39,040 Speaker 1: but they had Democrats who are like, look, I'm gonna 146 00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 1: get in trouble if we don't lock up you know, 147 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:44,720 Speaker 1: a gang banger who's on you know, shooting number three. 148 00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:47,800 Speaker 1: I'm gonna get picked out of office. The progressive prosecutors 149 00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:52,280 Speaker 1: come in Krasner Fox in Chicago, Gascon and Los Angeles, 150 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:54,280 Speaker 1: and they go, you know, let's just set up as 151 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 1: many diversion programs. Plea bargains lower level prosecutions as possible, 152 00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:01,800 Speaker 1: because that's some how is going to make us not safer, 153 00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:05,400 Speaker 1: clay more just, and we are paying that price. You know, 154 00:09:05,400 --> 00:09:08,840 Speaker 1: it pays it disproportionately. Minorities who live in high crime 155 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 1: communities they pay the price of these progressive prosecutors. And 156 00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:16,280 Speaker 1: by the way, this is mostly a white, white woke 157 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 1: agenda political move It's not something that's supported by minorities 158 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:27,840 Speaker 1: in cities. This is the white woke universe has taken 159 00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:31,640 Speaker 1: over the Democratic Party and the results have been I 160 00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:35,920 Speaker 1: think this is important to emphasize thousands of additional dead 161 00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:41,160 Speaker 1: minorities based on their political arguments. There should be substantial 162 00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:44,200 Speaker 1: consequences at the ballot box, not just for people who 163 00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:47,319 Speaker 1: traditionally vote Republican. But I know there's a lot of 164 00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:51,120 Speaker 1: people listening to us now, white, Black, Asian, Hispanic who 165 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:54,760 Speaker 1: ordinarily consider themselves maybe even to be Democrats. Maybe you 166 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:57,240 Speaker 1: even consider yourself to be a little bit left of center. 167 00:09:57,800 --> 00:10:00,640 Speaker 1: But you're looking at all of this chaos us in 168 00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:04,600 Speaker 1: city streets everywhere, and you're saying, we have to fix this, 169 00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:08,640 Speaker 1: and I just keep hammering home. Being concerned that you're 170 00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 1: too tough on crime is a luxury of a low 171 00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 1: crime environment. That's the world that you are able to 172 00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:18,319 Speaker 1: sell the idea of, hey, we're being too tough, we're 173 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:21,319 Speaker 1: putting too many people behind bars. Well, when crime went 174 00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:26,080 Speaker 1: down in two fourteen, two fifteen, two sixteen, remember this 175 00:10:26,120 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 1: started with Obama as president. Ferguson was on Obama's watch, 176 00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:33,600 Speaker 1: and it was all a luxury. I really do believe 177 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:35,880 Speaker 1: this a luxury of a low crime environment, because if 178 00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:37,880 Speaker 1: you've got high crime, you don't have time to sit 179 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:39,760 Speaker 1: around and say, oh, we're being too mean to the 180 00:10:39,800 --> 00:10:42,839 Speaker 1: criminal element. You want those guys behind bars. You don't 181 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:45,839 Speaker 1: want random people sitting on a subway car getting shot. 182 00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:47,600 Speaker 1: You don't want somebody going out to a bar in 183 00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:52,440 Speaker 1: Philadelphia or Chattanooga with their girlfriend and they walk outside 184 00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:53,800 Speaker 1: and the next thing you know, there's a hail of 185 00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:58,439 Speaker 1: bullets everywhere and they're dead. This is a total reality 186 00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:01,960 Speaker 1: of the Democrat idea that they need to take people 187 00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:05,360 Speaker 1: from behind bars and simultaneously, I think it's two pronged 188 00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:09,239 Speaker 1: buck take people up from behind bars and simultaneously destroy 189 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:12,120 Speaker 1: the legitimacy of police absolutely so that they are not 190 00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:13,960 Speaker 1: able to do their jet it. It was really a 191 00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:17,640 Speaker 1: two pronged dismantling. And we've focused a lot on the 192 00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:20,720 Speaker 1: what we call the Ferguson effect, coined by our friend 193 00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:23,360 Speaker 1: Heather McDonald, and she's completely right. That's now just become 194 00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:25,640 Speaker 1: a criminal justice term. Yes, and for everyone, just as 195 00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 1: a refresher, the Ferguson effect is okay. Well, cops know 196 00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:31,680 Speaker 1: that if they have to wrestle somebody to the ground 197 00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:34,040 Speaker 1: to make an arrest, they might be on videos. So 198 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 1: you know what, I don't know. I'm not getting out 199 00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:39,320 Speaker 1: like this guy. I'm not turning around and running you plate, 200 00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:42,080 Speaker 1: you know, he maybe he just just robbed a liquor 201 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:44,160 Speaker 1: store at gunpoint or knife point, but I don't see 202 00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:46,000 Speaker 1: the gun. And I'm just gonna not deal with this 203 00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:49,079 Speaker 1: right now. When you see that playing out in city 204 00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:51,680 Speaker 1: after city all across the country, it has a massive, 205 00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:55,760 Speaker 1: deliterious effect to perceptions of public safety. And then when 206 00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 1: you add the prosecutors to it. I mean, I've been 207 00:11:57,520 --> 00:11:59,880 Speaker 1: really digging into this because I find it fascinating. There 208 00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:02,319 Speaker 1: there were and I want everyone to be very clear 209 00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:06,199 Speaker 1: on this. In twenty seventeen and twenty eighteen, glowing profiles 210 00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:09,319 Speaker 1: written in the New Yorker, in the New York Times, 211 00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:14,000 Speaker 1: and the Washington Post about all these different progressive prosecutors 212 00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:19,040 Speaker 1: who represented a left wing social justice above actual justice 213 00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:25,400 Speaker 1: attitude toward crime, policing and prosecution. And in every single 214 00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:28,920 Speaker 1: place Clay they where they dig over, crime across the 215 00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:32,280 Speaker 1: board went up, what up dramatically? I mean, homicides in America. 216 00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:36,480 Speaker 1: Just so everyone understands the scale we're talking about here, 217 00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:41,040 Speaker 1: from twenty nineteen to twenty twenty nationwide, one up thirty percent, 218 00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:43,760 Speaker 1: most in recorded history, the most one year they've ever 219 00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:46,439 Speaker 1: done in one year, and now people can say, well, 220 00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:49,559 Speaker 1: it was absolutely not the pandemic, because those elevated levels 221 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:52,160 Speaker 1: have pretty much stayed constant a lot of cities. This 222 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:56,920 Speaker 1: was a result, finally of the left and smug democrats 223 00:12:56,960 --> 00:13:00,760 Speaker 1: getting what they want, which is police who were supported 224 00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:04,000 Speaker 1: and prosecutors who do not want to lock up criminals. 225 00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:07,600 Speaker 1: They would rather get glowing profiles written about them in 226 00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:11,760 Speaker 1: the New York Times and get awards from community organizers 227 00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:15,839 Speaker 1: then keep people safe from violent, habitual criminals, which is 228 00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:17,920 Speaker 1: exactly what we're seeing. That's why people are so upset. 229 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:22,280 Speaker 1: They see, you know, Chessa Boudan for example, this guy, Yeah, 230 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:25,120 Speaker 1: I mean someone has gotten arrested. Fit, why is it, Clay. 231 00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:29,040 Speaker 1: We keep seeing someone's arrested twelve times, fifteen times, twenty times, 232 00:13:29,080 --> 00:13:31,920 Speaker 1: and then they do something truly heinous that makes national news. 233 00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:33,720 Speaker 1: We go, why are they on the street in the 234 00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 1: first place. It is because of these prosecutors. There's no 235 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:39,600 Speaker 1: mystery here. And by the way, front page articles, Wall 236 00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:42,440 Speaker 1: Street Journal and the New York Times, democrats are voting 237 00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:45,560 Speaker 1: these people out. They have it is. It's not like 238 00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:50,560 Speaker 1: there's a legitimate Republican Party opposition in San Francisco. This 239 00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:53,760 Speaker 1: is an internal civil war, and the Democrats have gotten 240 00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:56,920 Speaker 1: so furious at chessa Boudan. We'll talk about this. To me, Buck, 241 00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:00,760 Speaker 1: it is kind of the full fruition of democratic ideals. 242 00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:03,959 Speaker 1: They can't blame Republicans for this. This is what happens 243 00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:08,080 Speaker 1: when they get free rain. It is chaos, it is death, 244 00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:12,160 Speaker 1: and it is destruction on inner city streets. We're gonna 245 00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:14,559 Speaker 1: continue to follow this one and a lot more. Eight 246 00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:16,800 Speaker 1: hundred two A two two eight A two. You know, 247 00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:19,200 Speaker 1: if you're one of our listeners, because we have some 248 00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:23,640 Speaker 1: major cities, of many major cities listen. We got obviously 249 00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:28,760 Speaker 1: people listening in places like Phoenix and all across California, 250 00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:33,280 Speaker 1: and you know, Chicago and Philly, and the crime increase 251 00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:35,840 Speaker 1: you've seen, if you've got anything you want to add 252 00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:38,840 Speaker 1: to the DA in your town, just being horrible. Let 253 00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:41,840 Speaker 1: us know. I'm so curious because Clay little Rock, Arkansas 254 00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:44,920 Speaker 1: progressive prosecutor.

Welcome back in Clay Travis Buck 275 00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:50,560 Speaker 1: Sexton Show. We're talking about the streets of American cities 276 00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:55,600 Speaker 1: becoming killing fields as murder rates skyrocket all over the country. 277 00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 1: And it's a two pronged attack. It is a deal 278 00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:03,520 Speaker 1: legitimization of police authority, as well as many police retiring 279 00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:06,280 Speaker 1: not being able to do their job. Coupled with when 280 00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:08,920 Speaker 1: they do their job and they arrest violent criminals, those 281 00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 1: violent criminals are often kept inside of lock up and 282 00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:16,600 Speaker 1: prosecuted to the least extent of the law. We got 283 00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:18,440 Speaker 1: a lot of people who went to way in, including 284 00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 1: police officer in Saint Louis. Let's go ahead and bring 285 00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:27,920 Speaker 1: in Phil, Phil, what's up? Oh, what do you see 286 00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:30,720 Speaker 1: in your job? You hit the nail right on the head. 287 00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:35,880 Speaker 1: I'm where I worked Ferguson, and I don't work for 288 00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:38,000 Speaker 1: the city, but I work in the county where where 289 00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:42,520 Speaker 1: it happened, and your spot on. Not only is it 290 00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:45,000 Speaker 1: the Ferguson effect, but it's the amount of officers that 291 00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:48,800 Speaker 1: we're losing because of it. And we are losing good 292 00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:51,320 Speaker 1: officers every single day who just want to go into 293 00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:53,960 Speaker 1: other career paths. It's a great time to need a 294 00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:57,920 Speaker 1: job right now, and it's just it's going to get work. 295 00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 1: How long have you been a police officer twelve years? 296 00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:03,920 Speaker 1: How would you compare the treatment that you get over 297 00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:08,040 Speaker 1: the last couple of years compared to when you started. Well, 298 00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:12,639 Speaker 1: this is just in terms of national coverage and media 299 00:17:12,920 --> 00:17:17,760 Speaker 1: it's not the specific community. I would say that we 300 00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:21,560 Speaker 1: do field the demonization and we do see it in 301 00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:24,119 Speaker 1: the news. But I will say that the Saint Louis area, 302 00:17:24,400 --> 00:17:27,920 Speaker 1: the public in general is very supportive. Well, it's good 303 00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:29,640 Speaker 1: to hear. I think it's going to get more supportive 304 00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:31,480 Speaker 1: in a lot of places across the country for cops 305 00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:34,439 Speaker 1: as people realize the only way out of this is 306 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:38,879 Speaker 1: to actually punish criminals and keep people safe. Thanks for 307 00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:41,439 Speaker 1: calling in, Phil, Thanks for trying to keep your community 308 00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:43,439 Speaker 1: safe out in Saint Louis, Missouri.

Welcome back the Clan Buck Show. 335 00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:04,639 Speaker 1: They're still gun control, as though that's going to solve 336 00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:07,160 Speaker 1: anything that we're seeing. Let's keep in mind over the weekend, 337 00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:13,879 Speaker 1: really violent weekend across America. Fifteen dead in mass shootings 338 00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:18,800 Speaker 1: and sixty wounded across the country in many different cities 339 00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:24,280 Speaker 1: all across America. There was a mass shooting in Philadelphia 340 00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:28,280 Speaker 1: where someone multiple gun minute teams just just started firing 341 00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:33,480 Speaker 1: into a packed crowd on a street. And yet we're 342 00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:36,000 Speaker 1: still being lectured about a R fifteens about the need 343 00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:39,720 Speaker 1: to do something and what they're telling us to do. Well, 344 00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:42,040 Speaker 1: we can all discuss whether that would actually have any 345 00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:45,120 Speaker 1: effect on the violence that's happening every day, not once 346 00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:47,880 Speaker 1: every few months or not a few times a year. 347 00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:51,600 Speaker 1: Every day in America people are being shot. What is 348 00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:53,760 Speaker 1: a way? What are the ways that we could actually 349 00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:57,680 Speaker 1: reduce that violence? What you get from democrats in general, 350 00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:04,000 Speaker 1: people like Alexandria Ocasio Cortez here she is on the 351 00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:06,159 Speaker 1: general sentiment of you know, we just need to like 352 00:20:06,280 --> 00:20:12,040 Speaker 1: do something. So many different areas and issues where all 353 00:20:12,119 --> 00:20:16,720 Speaker 1: of us agree, if not all an overwhelming amount of 354 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:22,520 Speaker 1: us agree, and Congress still can't get there together. It's 355 00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:28,040 Speaker 1: really hard and it's super frustrating, and it's frustrating for you. 356 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:32,359 Speaker 1: It's frustrating for me being a part of this, and 357 00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:35,560 Speaker 1: I don't want to be one of those ding dongs 358 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:39,080 Speaker 1: that just tells you to vote harder because the solutions 359 00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:40,880 Speaker 1: a lot bigger than that, and it's going to take 360 00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:44,720 Speaker 1: a lot more of us and from us to fix this. 361 00:20:45,960 --> 00:20:49,760 Speaker 1: Clay she talks about big solutions, right, big solutions, big things. 362 00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:54,200 Speaker 1: We gotta do a lot right. AOC back in twenty 363 00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:59,280 Speaker 1: nineteen put this out on Twitter. Mass incarceration is our 364 00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:02,840 Speaker 1: American reality. It is a system whose logic evolved from 365 00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:08,400 Speaker 1: the same lineage as Jim Crow American apartheid and slavery. 366 00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:12,000 Speaker 1: To end it, we have to change. That means we 367 00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:17,600 Speaker 1: need to have a real conversation about decarceration and prison 368 00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:24,119 Speaker 1: abolition in this country. This abject moron not not quoting anymore, 369 00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:28,200 Speaker 1: by the way, This abject moron wants to talk about 370 00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 1: getting rid of all the prisons and also did get 371 00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:35,560 Speaker 1: dec What we've had for a few years now is decarceration, 372 00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:41,600 Speaker 1: and we are seeing the results two things, more police 373 00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:45,119 Speaker 1: that are able to do their job and put criminals 374 00:21:45,240 --> 00:21:48,760 Speaker 1: in jails for longer periods of time. But if she 375 00:21:48,840 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 1: wants to really talk about bigger structural issues at play, 376 00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:57,879 Speaker 1: let's be honest. This is about men not growing up 377 00:21:57,920 --> 00:22:02,040 Speaker 1: with dad's in their homes and absent fathers. Let's just 378 00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:06,120 Speaker 1: be real. We have a I really believe this a 379 00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:11,480 Speaker 1: crisis of manhood in this country. And if you look 380 00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:13,919 Speaker 1: at the data, and I know there are people who 381 00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:16,159 Speaker 1: are single parents that are out there listening to us 382 00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:19,760 Speaker 1: right now. And I'm not trying to denigrate the job 383 00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:24,000 Speaker 1: that you are doing at all, but when there are 384 00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:28,120 Speaker 1: not men in a household, when the dad is not present, 385 00:22:29,040 --> 00:22:34,320 Speaker 1: young boys overwhelmingly suffer. The data reflects that young girls 386 00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:39,159 Speaker 1: actually do quite well with single parent households, but for 387 00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:42,520 Speaker 1: whatever reason, when there is not a man present in 388 00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:46,600 Speaker 1: a house, as hard as a single parent mom works 389 00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:51,200 Speaker 1: to try and fulfill both roles for her child, she can. 390 00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:57,280 Speaker 1: And this is the major structural issue that is a 391 00:22:57,280 --> 00:23:01,560 Speaker 1: proverbial third rail. Nobody wants to touch it, but it is. 392 00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:04,200 Speaker 1: If you want to talk about root causes for where 393 00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:10,719 Speaker 1: violence comes from. Absent fathers almost always are and is 394 00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:13,760 Speaker 1: a monster part of this story. And then there are 395 00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:17,760 Speaker 1: the people. I mean, AOC for example, was saying abolish prisons, abolition. 396 00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:20,080 Speaker 1: They speak about this, and by the way they they 397 00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:24,399 Speaker 1: use that term specifically to create an association with the 398 00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:29,440 Speaker 1: abolition of the evil of slavery. So now a society 399 00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:32,200 Speaker 1: that has prisons for criminals who murder people and do 400 00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:35,720 Speaker 1: heinous things is somehow on a moral plane. This is 401 00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:40,119 Speaker 1: the rhetorical This is the rhetorical strategy they use with 402 00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:43,000 Speaker 1: a society that has slavery. This is why they use 403 00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:47,040 Speaker 1: the term abolition. It's very intentional. Abolish prisons, of prisons, 404 00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:50,080 Speaker 1: abolish ice. You remember that immigrations and customs enforcement, that 405 00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:53,200 Speaker 1: was another fun police. They want to remove all of 406 00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:56,959 Speaker 1: the cultural safeguards that we have spent hundreds of years 407 00:23:57,040 --> 00:24:00,840 Speaker 1: developing to keep our community, saying, well, the true leftist activists, 408 00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:02,919 Speaker 1: by the way, I want to abolish police. Actually they 409 00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:07,159 Speaker 1: viewed deef deefund Clay was viewed as a as a 410 00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:10,359 Speaker 1: moderate measure stepping rhetoric. That was the stepping stone. The 411 00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:15,800 Speaker 1: true leftists want to want to be involved with abolition 412 00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:17,840 Speaker 1: of police. But here he is. I mean, just to 413 00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:20,399 Speaker 1: give you a sense of why we all get to 414 00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:22,960 Speaker 1: tired this. We're being yelled at by morons constantly, and 415 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:24,600 Speaker 1: they just yelled louder and louder when we say you 416 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:28,160 Speaker 1: don't even have good ideas. San Antonio Spurs head coach 417 00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:32,560 Speaker 1: Greg Popovich. He's apparently very woke here. He is just 418 00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:35,000 Speaker 1: in the last couple of days shouting about AAR fifteens. 419 00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:39,600 Speaker 1: Nobody's trying to take away anybody's guns, nobody, But they 420 00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:45,200 Speaker 1: say that, why did this eighteen year old he probably 421 00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:48,840 Speaker 1: had mental challenges, but they gave him a gun. They 422 00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:52,280 Speaker 1: gave him an AAR fifteen. They didn't give him a 423 00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:55,879 Speaker 1: hunting rifle. They didn't give him a handgun. And the 424 00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:58,280 Speaker 1: thing that's amazing to me about that, he said, why 425 00:24:58,320 --> 00:25:01,800 Speaker 1: does an eighteen year old wait a bit? Why can 426 00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:06,040 Speaker 1: anybody buy an AAR fifteen. I shouldn't be able to 427 00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:09,000 Speaker 1: buy one. You shouldn't be able to buy one. What 428 00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:11,280 Speaker 1: the hell do you need an a R fifteen four? 429 00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:15,800 Speaker 1: I mean, there's so much that's wrong and stupid. Well, 430 00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:16,960 Speaker 1: first of all, there are a lot of people that 431 00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:19,640 Speaker 1: want to take away your guns. He's talking about banning 432 00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:21,600 Speaker 1: the sale of and if you're going to ban the 433 00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:23,520 Speaker 1: sale of, you might as well have a mandatory buyback, 434 00:25:23,560 --> 00:25:25,639 Speaker 1: as far as a Left is concerned, Clay of the 435 00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:28,840 Speaker 1: fifteen dead and sixty wounded over this weekend, disproportionally these 436 00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:32,399 Speaker 1: are occurring. Almost all of these are occurring in urban, 437 00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:35,959 Speaker 1: urban settings. Do we think an AAR fifteen was used 438 00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:39,520 Speaker 1: in a single one of these shootings? No, unlikely, probably 439 00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:41,240 Speaker 1: not a single one. In fact, I mean you have 440 00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:43,720 Speaker 1: a ninety five percent certainty just based on the stats. 441 00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:47,840 Speaker 1: But they act like this would stop the violence. Yeah, 442 00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:51,199 Speaker 1: the problem is here to a big extent. People can 443 00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:54,720 Speaker 1: agree that they want to end violence, but people like 444 00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:58,320 Speaker 1: Greg Popovich and Steve Kerr, who are NBA coaches. Steve 445 00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:01,639 Speaker 1: Kerr said, hey, I don't want any police inside of 446 00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:05,959 Speaker 1: schools and protested against the police being president in schools, 447 00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:07,560 Speaker 1: which would have made a big difference. By the way, 448 00:26:07,560 --> 00:26:10,880 Speaker 1: in Uvalde, they don't want to have real conversations because 449 00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:13,000 Speaker 1: they get uncomfortable in a hurry. Same thing with the 450 00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:17,400 Speaker 1: Biden administration because when you drill down here, it's easy 451 00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:21,480 Speaker 1: for Joe Biden to say, whenever a crazy white guy 452 00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:25,439 Speaker 1: shoots somebody, oh, this is an example of domestic extremism. 453 00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:28,480 Speaker 1: This is why the biggest threat to American life today 454 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:30,679 Speaker 1: is white supremacy. This is why we need a special 455 00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:35,879 Speaker 1: Department of Justice investigation. The data overwhelmingly reflects that the 456 00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:39,320 Speaker 1: vast majority of shootings and the vast majority of victims 457 00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:42,600 Speaker 1: of shootings are young black men. Young black men make 458 00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:47,200 Speaker 1: up around two or three percent of the American population. 459 00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:50,520 Speaker 1: I'm defining young as sixteen to forty, right, that's young 460 00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:54,200 Speaker 1: ish sixteen to forty round two or three percent at 461 00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:58,680 Speaker 1: most of the overall population, and they are over half 462 00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:02,959 Speaker 1: nearly of all victims and over half of all shooters. Well, 463 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:06,639 Speaker 1: what's going on that is causing that to occur? And 464 00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:10,640 Speaker 1: if you're an NBA coach, why would you not look 465 00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:12,520 Speaker 1: at the data if you really want to go after 466 00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:17,320 Speaker 1: violence and have difficult conversations about who the shooters are, 467 00:27:17,640 --> 00:27:21,240 Speaker 1: what their motivations are, why this is all happening. Well, 468 00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:25,080 Speaker 1: that's way too complicated, because we've created a world where 469 00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:28,160 Speaker 1: even if you're trying to create a better situation, if 470 00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:31,240 Speaker 1: you point out these data facts, it's racist, right Buck. 471 00:27:31,240 --> 00:27:34,119 Speaker 1: This is where we've gone where you share facts and 472 00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:35,840 Speaker 1: you say, you know, hey, if we're trying to reduce 473 00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:38,840 Speaker 1: gun violence, number one culprit for gun violence and the 474 00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:42,000 Speaker 1: number one victim young black men. If you even talk 475 00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:43,679 Speaker 1: about the fact that two or three percent of the 476 00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:46,560 Speaker 1: population represents half of all the shootings and the shooting 477 00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:49,199 Speaker 1: victims in this country, people lose their mind and call 478 00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:52,280 Speaker 1: you racist. I want to illustrate a point here. There 479 00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:56,440 Speaker 1: was a man who was slashed across the face right 480 00:27:56,480 --> 00:27:58,119 Speaker 1: next to where I live in Times Square in New 481 00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:01,359 Speaker 1: York City. I live in Midtown, slashed across the face. 482 00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:05,320 Speaker 1: NBC Local, the NBC four station here, did a report 483 00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:08,600 Speaker 1: on it, you know, did a news story online. This 484 00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:14,280 Speaker 1: is how they described the suspect. The suspect is believed. 485 00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:16,840 Speaker 1: This is a direct quote. The suspect is believed to 486 00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:20,760 Speaker 1: be in his early two mid thirties, about five nine, 487 00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:25,639 Speaker 1: with a slim build and short black hair. He was 488 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:29,560 Speaker 1: wearing a blue shirt, black pants, and a red and 489 00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:33,320 Speaker 1: white jacket. End quote. They won't even tell you. I'm 490 00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:35,720 Speaker 1: just wondering the person. Do you think was there anything 491 00:28:35,800 --> 00:28:38,960 Speaker 1: left out of this? By the way, they have surveillance 492 00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:43,600 Speaker 1: footage of the guy, but he is black, and they 493 00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:46,760 Speaker 1: did not want to include that in the description of 494 00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:50,120 Speaker 1: a suspect who just slashed open somebody's face for no 495 00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:53,440 Speaker 1: reason on the subway.

That's 510 00:29:34,320 --> 00:29:37,640 Speaker 1: the data overwhelmingly reflects that when there's a black shooter 511 00:29:37,680 --> 00:29:39,960 Speaker 1: or a black crime victim, people are so afraid of 512 00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:42,440 Speaker 1: being called racist that they won't mention the race of 513 00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:44,560 Speaker 1: the And you and I know if if in the description, 514 00:29:44,760 --> 00:29:47,040 Speaker 1: whoever that little writer is for NBC, I don't remember 515 00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:48,160 Speaker 1: who it is, I don't I don't you know, I 516 00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:53,080 Speaker 1: didn't see it. If that person wrote, you know, black male, 517 00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:55,200 Speaker 1: mid thirties or whatever, what are the chances that the 518 00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:57,920 Speaker 1: editor would be like, oh, I gotta be careful there. 519 00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:01,680 Speaker 1: You gotta be careful there, buddy.

I want to 549 00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:34,600 Speaker 1: make sure we as both big history buffs and American 550 00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:39,480 Speaker 1: history enthusiasts, mentioned today, which is the seventy eighth anniversary 551 00:31:39,680 --> 00:31:42,680 Speaker 1: of D Day, and Buck, I've talked about how incredible 552 00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:45,120 Speaker 1: it was of an experience to get to spend the 553 00:31:45,240 --> 00:31:48,600 Speaker 1: day touring all of the D Day beaches. There are 554 00:31:49,320 --> 00:31:54,800 Speaker 1: still survivors who are over in Normandy today celebrating that 555 00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:59,520 Speaker 1: historic occasion, and I thought, let's listen. Here's General Eisenhower's 556 00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:04,800 Speaker 1: D Day message to the troops seventy eight years ago. Today, soldiers, sailors, 557 00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:08,600 Speaker 1: and airmen of the Allied Expeditionary Force, you are about 558 00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:11,880 Speaker 1: to embark upon the great crusade toward which we have 559 00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:14,840 Speaker 1: striven these many months. The eyes of the world are 560 00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:18,360 Speaker 1: upon you. The hopes and prayers of liberty loving people 561 00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:22,440 Speaker 1: everywhere march with you in company with our brave allies 562 00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:25,680 Speaker 1: and brothers in arms on other fronts. You will bring 563 00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:29,000 Speaker 1: about the destruction of the German war machine, the elimination 564 00:32:29,040 --> 00:32:32,160 Speaker 1: of Nazi tyranny over the oppressed peoples of Europe, and 565 00:32:32,280 --> 00:32:35,920 Speaker 1: security for ourselves in a free world. Your task will 566 00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:38,880 Speaker 1: not be an easy one. Your enemy is well trained, 567 00:32:39,160 --> 00:32:43,280 Speaker 1: well equipped, and battle hardened. He will fight savagely. I 568 00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:46,400 Speaker 1: have full confidence in your courage, devotion to duty, and 569 00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:51,880 Speaker 1: skill in battle. We will accept nothing less than full victory. 570 00:32:52,840 --> 00:32:56,840 Speaker 1: It's amazing, Clay. It's a reminder of what those men 571 00:32:57,280 --> 00:33:00,000 Speaker 1: at that time we're facing. And I know I mentioned 572 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:03,800 Speaker 1: this to you off air, but for me, I think, 573 00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:06,160 Speaker 1: I guess I was in the eighth or ninth grade 574 00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:11,160 Speaker 1: when Saving Private Ryan came out. That initial sequence, that 575 00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:14,320 Speaker 1: day sequence I think had more of an impact on 576 00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:19,000 Speaker 1: me than any other military recreation on the screen I've 577 00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:21,560 Speaker 1: ever seen. I mean, I still remember being in that 578 00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:26,240 Speaker 1: theater at that time and seeing what those what our 579 00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:29,720 Speaker 1: soldiers had to go through in that landing, and what 580 00:33:29,880 --> 00:33:34,280 Speaker 1: that meant at that time, it's like seared into my brain. 581 00:33:34,400 --> 00:33:39,840 Speaker 1: And I know there's still some actual d D Day survivors, veterans, 582 00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:42,000 Speaker 1: veterans out there, and you know, we don't have that 583 00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:47,640 Speaker 1: many left. It's wild to think about these eighteen and 584 00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:51,960 Speaker 1: nineteen year old kids, many of whom had never been 585 00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:56,320 Speaker 1: outside of their state, and suddenly they are on their 586 00:33:56,320 --> 00:34:01,600 Speaker 1: first airplane flights ever that crossed the Atlantic, and those 587 00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:06,280 Speaker 1: troop transports they drop the door basically and you're stepping 588 00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:10,200 Speaker 1: right out into Nazis machine gun fire at eighteen and 589 00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:16,160 Speaker 1: nineteen years old. And the bravery of those guys and 590 00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:19,959 Speaker 1: what they did. And then to think about the trajectory 591 00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:22,720 Speaker 1: of where our country is today, where we've gone from 592 00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:29,000 Speaker 1: that generation fighting actual Nazis buck to where the current 593 00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:34,040 Speaker 1: generation on social media calls people they disagree with on 594 00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:38,400 Speaker 1: political related issues Nazis. Yeah, we've we've debased courage in 595 00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:42,480 Speaker 1: this culture around say, the left has debased courage to 596 00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:45,759 Speaker 1: such such an extent where they think that you know, 597 00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:48,160 Speaker 1: crying and screaming and yelling at people for not wanting 598 00:34:48,200 --> 00:34:51,200 Speaker 1: to use make believe, not even just whatever pronoun But 599 00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:52,759 Speaker 1: you know, there's there's a whole movement to have make 600 00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:55,040 Speaker 1: believe pronouns called people you know x Z for Z 601 00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:59,080 Speaker 1: that is the equivalent of storming the beaches at Normandy. Yeah, 602 00:34:59,080 --> 00:35:02,040 Speaker 1: they actually think that they're the heroes of our society 603 00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:05,359 Speaker 1: for taking no risk and actually being the oppressors within 604 00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:08,240 Speaker 1: our society, which I think the right has increasingly woken 605 00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:11,279 Speaker 1: up to that unless you stand up against these individuals, 606 00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:15,279 Speaker 1: they will they will immiserate you and think that they're 607 00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:17,960 Speaker 1: good people for doing it, not just with COVID, with everything. 608 00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:22,080 Speaker 1: And I think the other lesson here is sooner or later, 609 00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:30,280 Speaker 1: big words and talk matters, but sooner or later people 610 00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:34,880 Speaker 1: who are truly evil use violence, and you have to 611 00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:40,439 Speaker 1: be willing to respond in kind violent. You can't talk 612 00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:42,879 Speaker 1: the Nazis out of not invading, right, You can't talk 613 00:35:42,920 --> 00:35:45,080 Speaker 1: bad people out of making the choices they make. There's 614 00:35:45,080 --> 00:35:47,200 Speaker 1: a portion of our society, and obviously we're you and 615 00:35:47,239 --> 00:35:49,319 Speaker 1: I are both part of what I've called the nine 616 00:35:49,360 --> 00:35:51,560 Speaker 1: to eleven generation. And I went to the CIA because 617 00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:53,640 Speaker 1: of nine to eleven, and we had a few million 618 00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:56,880 Speaker 1: veterans serving Iraq and Afghanistan. But there's a portion of 619 00:35:56,880 --> 00:36:01,759 Speaker 1: our society that I think rejects the idea that at 620 00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:05,000 Speaker 1: some point your freedom as a society and as a 621 00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:09,400 Speaker 1: people is reliant upon men and women who are willing 622 00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:12,080 Speaker 1: to get into the equivalent of a Higgins boat and 623 00:36:12,200 --> 00:36:15,320 Speaker 1: brave machine gun fire and take the fight to the enemy. 624 00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:19,040 Speaker 1: That actually is the final you know, the final bulwark, 625 00:36:19,160 --> 00:36:22,359 Speaker 1: the final defense against tyranny. And a lot of people 626 00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:25,920 Speaker 1: in our country right now don't accept that, don't understand that. 627 00:36:25,960 --> 00:36:28,759 Speaker 1: I think, unfortunately, how many eighteen and nineteen year olds 628 00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:31,440 Speaker 1: who think they're so brave for sitting around on social 629 00:36:31,440 --> 00:36:34,560 Speaker 1: media calling out people all day long, would be willing 630 00:36:34,640 --> 00:36:37,320 Speaker 1: calling them Nazis, would be willing to step into a 631 00:36:37,400 --> 00:36:42,760 Speaker 1: hail of gunfire to fight against people that call folks 632 00:36:42,760 --> 00:36:46,200 Speaker 1: who use the wrong pronoun Nazis. They would never actually 633 00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:50,439 Speaker 1: show up to fight against real Nazis. Thank you all 634 00:36:50,480 --> 00:36:56,240 Speaker 1: who did play Travis and Buck Sexton on the front 635 00:36:56,320 --> 00:36:57,680 Speaker 1: lines of truth.
