1 00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:03,880 Speaker 1: There's a very good chance that mask mandates may be 2 00:00:04,080 --> 00:00:06,680 Speaker 1: coming back when you fly. I'm going to tell you 3 00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:08,880 Speaker 1: about that coming up in a moment. But before we 4 00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:12,880 Speaker 1: get to that important story, there's another one where Republicans 5 00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:17,360 Speaker 1: are finally taking some action. My hero today is the 6 00:00:17,440 --> 00:00:21,239 Speaker 1: Ohio Governor Mike DeWine. He has now signed a bill 7 00:00:21,280 --> 00:00:25,200 Speaker 1: allowing armed school employees, especially in the wake of the 8 00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:29,880 Speaker 1: school shooting that happened in Texas. Ohio school districts could 9 00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:34,120 Speaker 1: begin arming employees as soon as this fall under this 10 00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:38,000 Speaker 1: legislation that's now been approved by the Republican lawmakers and 11 00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:42,600 Speaker 1: set to be signed by the governor. Democrats are furious 12 00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:46,280 Speaker 1: over this proposal, they say, which is absolutely out of line. 13 00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:51,040 Speaker 1: Let's be clear, it's not a mandate, and they say 14 00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:55,760 Speaker 1: that this sends the wrong message. Democrats believe a week 15 00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:58,640 Speaker 1: after the massacre of nineteen children and two teachers at 16 00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:01,600 Speaker 1: an elementary school and you vowed Texas. Now, how does 17 00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:03,720 Speaker 1: this send the wrong message? Is the question you have 18 00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:05,600 Speaker 1: to ask yourself. And the reason why I say it 19 00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:10,440 Speaker 1: that way is because why what possibly could the wrong 20 00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:14,160 Speaker 1: message be being sent? In the words of the Democrats 21 00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:16,920 Speaker 1: also want to remind you very quick if you've not 22 00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:19,400 Speaker 1: hit that subscriber auto download buttons so you get our 23 00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:22,440 Speaker 1: podcasts alerts every day, so you know we've got the 24 00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:24,319 Speaker 1: new show out there, makes you hit that real quick. 25 00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:27,399 Speaker 1: While you're listening, you have a school shooting that happens. 26 00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:31,360 Speaker 1: You have an open door, an unlocked door at the 27 00:01:31,360 --> 00:01:34,480 Speaker 1: back of the school, and you did not have anyone 28 00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 1: there arm to stop the shooter. So the question that 29 00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:40,920 Speaker 1: you must ask yourself is what do you do to 30 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:44,360 Speaker 1: fix that problem. One of the ways to fix that 31 00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:48,560 Speaker 1: problem is pretty darn obvious. You fix the problem by 32 00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 1: making sure there's someone there to respond to an initial 33 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:57,680 Speaker 1: shooting before you even dial nine one one. Why so 34 00:01:57,800 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 1: you don't have time to sit in a classroom and 35 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:02,960 Speaker 1: bear arcade yourself in there and do exactly what happened 36 00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:08,960 Speaker 1: in Texas. This is an initial first response option. Now, again, 37 00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:13,760 Speaker 1: it's not mandatory. I've actually said this for quite some time. 38 00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:18,400 Speaker 1: I believe that no one should be mandated to carry 39 00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:21,880 Speaker 1: a firearm, especially in a school. I don't want anyone 40 00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:25,400 Speaker 1: to carry a gun who does not want to carry 41 00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:27,880 Speaker 1: a gun and go through training. That's the reason why 42 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:31,080 Speaker 1: the governor has said that this is in his words, 43 00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:35,200 Speaker 1: and the laws also states this. It is optional. It's 44 00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 1: not mandatory. It is optional, and it's important that it's 45 00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:43,480 Speaker 1: stay optional. It's important that we make sure that no 46 00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:47,240 Speaker 1: one feels pressured to actually carry a firearm, because that 47 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 1: would be a disaster. Now, before I get into more 48 00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 1: of this story, I want to say thank you and 49 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,239 Speaker 1: tell you about our good friends at Legacy Precious Medals. 50 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:58,680 Speaker 1: Without them, the show wouldn't be possible.

But for the 67 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:54,600 Speaker 1: Democrats to immediately come out and say that this is 68 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 1: a terrible idea, that we're actually trying to protect kid kids, 69 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,880 Speaker 1: support kids, and make sure that we have people that 70 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 1: are willing to carry a firearm, that are able to 71 00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:06,760 Speaker 1: do so, that are willing to go through the training, 72 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:08,400 Speaker 1: and are willing to do so. To say that this 73 00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:12,440 Speaker 1: is somehow a horrible thing tells you they don't really 74 00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 1: care about protecting your children. What they are obsessed with 75 00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:22,000 Speaker 1: is gun control, and gun control is a completely different 76 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 1: issue compared to what I just describe to you protecting 77 00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 1: your children. You gotta understand, Democrats have a policy never 78 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:32,120 Speaker 1: let a crisis go to waste. We've been talking about 79 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:36,040 Speaker 1: that for quite some time. And what Democrats understand is 80 00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:39,120 Speaker 1: if you have people in schools that are first responders, 81 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:42,520 Speaker 1: that can actually respond, then there's a really big problem 82 00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:45,400 Speaker 1: when they're trying to advocate and demand gun control, because 83 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:47,880 Speaker 1: the response will be will hold on a second, look 84 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:51,920 Speaker 1: at what has happened since we've allowed teachers to carry firearms. 85 00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:55,080 Speaker 1: Look at what has happened since administrators have been able 86 00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:59,799 Speaker 1: to carry firearms. Look at what happens once we hard 87 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 1: and these soft targets. Now, as I played for you 88 00:05:04,360 --> 00:05:09,200 Speaker 1: in our podcast yesterday, the President has no interest in 89 00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:13,479 Speaker 1: hardening our schools. So apparently a backdoor wide open to 90 00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:15,719 Speaker 1: a school and no security guard there to stop a 91 00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:20,440 Speaker 1: shooter is completely and totally acceptable to the President of 92 00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:23,240 Speaker 1: the United States of America because they said he has 93 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:27,720 Speaker 1: no interest in hardening our schools. If you look at 94 00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 1: the governor of Ohio, it's very clear he looks at 95 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 1: it differently. Now, the Republicans measure they say that they 96 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:39,599 Speaker 1: believe could prevent these school shootings is exactly why lawmakers 97 00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 1: fast track the legislation. They did this because they believe 98 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:45,720 Speaker 1: it was important that we protect our kids as fast 99 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:49,680 Speaker 1: as we possibly can. Now, under the current law, armed 100 00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:53,800 Speaker 1: school workers would need hundreds of hours of training. Did 101 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:56,520 Speaker 1: you hear what I said? Hundreds of hours of training. 102 00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:00,280 Speaker 1: The bill will protect children by ensuring and struction of 103 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:04,720 Speaker 1: specific to schools and including significant scenario based training. Governor 104 00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:07,440 Speaker 1: de Wine said in his announcement of the support of 105 00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:12,560 Speaker 1: this legislation, Wednesday afternoon. The measure is opposed by major 106 00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:14,800 Speaker 1: law enforcement groups, by the way, which is how the 107 00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:17,920 Speaker 1: left says this is a terrible idea, most of them 108 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:22,080 Speaker 1: controlled by gun control advocates and the States Teachers Union. 109 00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:24,920 Speaker 1: Shocker here, which asked de Wind to veto the measure, 110 00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:28,160 Speaker 1: says that this is an absolute terrible idea. In fact, 111 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:32,400 Speaker 1: it's supported by a handful of police departments in school districts, which, 112 00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:35,719 Speaker 1: of course the media doesn't actually want you to know. Now, 113 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:39,280 Speaker 1: under the latest version of the bill, school employees who 114 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:42,720 Speaker 1: carry guns would need now up to twenty four hours 115 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:46,920 Speaker 1: of initial training, then up to eight hours of requalification 116 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:50,760 Speaker 1: training annually. Democrats are furious because the current bill said 117 00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:53,400 Speaker 1: you need hundreds of hours of training, which was not 118 00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 1: realistic for many teachers a because they don't have the 119 00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:01,120 Speaker 1: time while teaching school. That's one of the problems. And 120 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:04,440 Speaker 1: Democrats support the old legislation because they knew that it 121 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:08,080 Speaker 1: was virtually an impossible way for someone to get the 122 00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:10,280 Speaker 1: permit to carry in a gun or in a school 123 00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 1: right the requirement they made it almost unobtainable. So what 124 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,000 Speaker 1: the governor has done and what the legislature has done, 125 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:20,120 Speaker 1: they said, look, we still believe that people need training 126 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:24,080 Speaker 1: twenty four hours of initial training, eight hours of requalification 127 00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:27,360 Speaker 1: training annually. Now, Duane, who was expected to sign the 128 00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:30,320 Speaker 1: bill later this month, also announced the state's construction budget 129 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:35,680 Speaker 1: will provide one hundred million for school security upgrades in 130 00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 1: the schools and five million for upgrades of the colleges. Now, 131 00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:42,600 Speaker 1: what are these upgrades going to actually look like? They're 132 00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 1: going to harden school targets. They're going to make sure 133 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:49,600 Speaker 1: that the locking mechanisms on the doors and the structure 134 00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:54,320 Speaker 1: around the school allow for it to be much tougher 135 00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:57,800 Speaker 1: for someone to break into the schools. They're going to 136 00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:00,520 Speaker 1: make sure that the backdoor is not why I'd open 137 00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 1: as it was in Texas. And they're going to make 138 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:05,920 Speaker 1: sure that the people that need the training, that want 139 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:08,440 Speaker 1: the training are able to get the training. Now, this 140 00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:10,320 Speaker 1: is the other part of this equation that I still 141 00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:13,480 Speaker 1: don't understand. You had parents that were showing up and 142 00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 1: they were begging the police to go in. We now 143 00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:19,080 Speaker 1: found out that we were lied to about what happened. 144 00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:21,560 Speaker 1: You valued it. We found out that they did know 145 00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:24,920 Speaker 1: that the shooter was in a classroom, not barricaded by himself. 146 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:28,000 Speaker 1: But with students who were alive for forty plus minutes, 147 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:31,120 Speaker 1: we know that they screwed that up in the response. 148 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:36,839 Speaker 1: But regardless of that, the point that is obviously should 149 00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:40,160 Speaker 1: be made here is what if there was somebody inside 150 00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:44,360 Speaker 1: that had a firearm. Now, there are many teachers that 151 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:48,240 Speaker 1: are former military and former law enforcement. If you look 152 00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:50,840 Speaker 1: at the statistics, there's a very good chance that in 153 00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:54,360 Speaker 1: almost every school in America there's probably somebody out there 154 00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 1: that served their country, whether it be in the military 155 00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 1: and or in law enforcement. Those are the first people 156 00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:04,920 Speaker 1: that will sign up. There are also a lot of 157 00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:08,440 Speaker 1: men in schools that are hunters. Many of them have 158 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:11,559 Speaker 1: been around guns, they're not afraid of guns, and they 159 00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:15,000 Speaker 1: are willing to die for their students. In almost every 160 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:19,199 Speaker 1: school shooting, we see the same sad story, a teacher dead, 161 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:23,640 Speaker 1: laying in front of somebody right, laying on top of 162 00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:28,000 Speaker 1: a child, or barricade themselves in the door literally as 163 00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 1: a human shield. Now, if that person is willing to 164 00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 1: die for your child using their body as a human shield, 165 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:38,640 Speaker 1: if they're willing to carry a firearm to school every 166 00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:41,880 Speaker 1: day to protect your child, why wouldn't the liberal and 167 00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:45,880 Speaker 1: the democratic leadership be in favor of that there is 168 00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:48,800 Speaker 1: a significant amount of training involved. Twenty four hours plus 169 00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:52,600 Speaker 1: eight hours annually is a pretty good start. I don't 170 00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:55,240 Speaker 1: think that any of these teachers or administrators on a 171 00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:58,400 Speaker 1: campus are going to take this lightly. I think they're 172 00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:01,040 Speaker 1: going to want to make sure that they are proficient. 173 00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:02,840 Speaker 1: They're gonna want to make sure that they can protect 174 00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 1: themselves but also the children if they decide to do this. 175 00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:08,360 Speaker 1: I don't think it's something that you just think, oh, 176 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:10,520 Speaker 1: it's not a big deal, and I'm just going to 177 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:13,959 Speaker 1: randomly carry a gun and not know how to use it. Now. 178 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:17,120 Speaker 1: Democrats also say this is going to cause a lot 179 00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:22,960 Speaker 1: of innocent lives to be ruined. They say that because 180 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:24,920 Speaker 1: they want you to be afraid that as teacher is 181 00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:27,640 Speaker 1: going to randomly pull out a gun start shooting at 182 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:30,240 Speaker 1: a shooter in a school and hitting a bunch of 183 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:33,840 Speaker 1: kids in the process. There is no indication that that 184 00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:39,720 Speaker 1: would actually happen. This governor has done what other governors 185 00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:42,440 Speaker 1: need to do, and they've done it quickly, and now 186 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:45,720 Speaker 1: other governors need to seize on two parts of this plan. 187 00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:48,440 Speaker 1: It's not just as simple. And I want to be 188 00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:51,880 Speaker 1: the first to say this. I don't believe that only 189 00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:53,920 Speaker 1: allowing people to carry guns in school is going to 190 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 1: fix this problem. Okay, I don't believe that it will. 191 00:10:57,760 --> 00:11:03,000 Speaker 1: I do believe it's a multi prong issue here, Okay, 192 00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 1: I believe that. I think there's a very good chance 193 00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:08,400 Speaker 1: that you have multiple things that need to be done 194 00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:11,840 Speaker 1: to turn this around where we're winning instead of losing 195 00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:14,400 Speaker 1: every time someone wants to go into school and wreak havoc. 196 00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:20,200 Speaker 1: What DeWine understood is you, yes, you need people that 197 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:23,160 Speaker 1: have firearms, but you also need to harden the target. 198 00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:26,160 Speaker 1: And if we don't harden the target, we're just asking 199 00:11:26,200 --> 00:11:30,280 Speaker 1: for trouble. It is unconscionable. But then twenty twenty two 200 00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:32,760 Speaker 1: that we would have the back door of a school 201 00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:37,960 Speaker 1: open and unlocked anywhere in this country. Forget school shootings, 202 00:11:38,040 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 1: let's just talk about child abductions. Let's talk about maybe 203 00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:45,679 Speaker 1: custody battles or just crazy people that want to come 204 00:11:45,679 --> 00:11:49,960 Speaker 1: into school and do something to a child. We lock 205 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:52,000 Speaker 1: our doors for a reason when we sleep and when 206 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:54,000 Speaker 1: we're at home, and we lock our doors and have 207 00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:57,199 Speaker 1: cameras up and security systems for a reason. Why would 208 00:11:57,200 --> 00:12:00,160 Speaker 1: that change with a school? It is clear that we 209 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:05,840 Speaker 1: do not have enough surveillance at schools. I'm talking about video. 210 00:12:06,920 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 1: It is clear that there are too many blind spots 211 00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:12,600 Speaker 1: in the schools. I've been advocating for there to actually 212 00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:18,040 Speaker 1: be cameras in every classroom, not only because of security now, 213 00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 1: but also so that parents can see what their kids 214 00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 1: are being indoctrinated with. It would serve two purposes. And 215 00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:25,760 Speaker 1: you can't tell me we can't afford it because it 216 00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:28,760 Speaker 1: is dirt cheap now to put up a remote camera 217 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:31,679 Speaker 1: in every room in your house, or at your business, 218 00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:35,319 Speaker 1: or in a classroom. This is not a multi billion 219 00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:41,120 Speaker 1: dollar idea that I have for one school. Imagine how 220 00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:44,640 Speaker 1: different this could have been if this school had cameras 221 00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:48,160 Speaker 1: in every classroom and in every hallway. Imagine how quickly 222 00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:50,720 Speaker 1: they could have identified which classroom the shooter was in. 223 00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:54,200 Speaker 1: Imagine if that classroom was showing you a live feed 224 00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:56,240 Speaker 1: of what the shooter was doing in the classroom, so 225 00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:58,079 Speaker 1: you know how quickly you need to react and how 226 00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:00,440 Speaker 1: to react, and where he was barre kids in the 227 00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:03,560 Speaker 1: room when you breached the door. Imagine how helpful that 228 00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:05,640 Speaker 1: could have been to law enforcement or to the staff 229 00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:07,240 Speaker 1: when they're trying to figure out how to get the 230 00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:10,080 Speaker 1: kids out. You know, there's another part of this that 231 00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:11,840 Speaker 1: people have got talked about. What if he would have 232 00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:16,000 Speaker 1: switched classrooms early on and taken out even more kids. 233 00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:18,440 Speaker 1: Can you imagine if you knew that he was in 234 00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:21,240 Speaker 1: one classroom isolated, and then you knew that you could 235 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:24,760 Speaker 1: get kids out by having the men in the classroom 236 00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:28,200 Speaker 1: with guns protecting that hallway as you're evacuating the children, 237 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 1: they're stuck in those classrooms at the mercy of a 238 00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:35,199 Speaker 1: mass shooter. What Governor DeWine has decided to do here 239 00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:38,079 Speaker 1: is say we're not saying guns only fix this problem. 240 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:42,600 Speaker 1: One hundred million dollars for school security upgrades. That doesn't 241 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:45,040 Speaker 1: mean that's going to law enforcement either. That's two actual 242 00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:49,120 Speaker 1: upgrades in the school. We've got to get our heads 243 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:51,160 Speaker 1: out of our rearend and realize that this is a 244 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:56,280 Speaker 1: multi prong issue that is going to have many solutions, 245 00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:59,160 Speaker 1: and none of them are going to be perfect. Arming 246 00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:02,400 Speaker 1: schools is not going to make it perfectly safe for 247 00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:05,160 Speaker 1: your kid. Having cameras up is not going to make 248 00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:08,480 Speaker 1: it perfectly safe for your kid. Locking all the doors 249 00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:11,960 Speaker 1: is not going to make it perfectly safe for your kids. 250 00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:16,320 Speaker 1: But If the church that I go to can do 251 00:14:16,360 --> 00:14:20,440 Speaker 1: what I'm talking about right now on Sundays with volunteers, 252 00:14:20,440 --> 00:14:23,560 Speaker 1: why can't we do it at a school. I'll give 253 00:14:23,560 --> 00:14:27,000 Speaker 1: you example. Sunday, I dropped my three kids off in 254 00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:30,640 Speaker 1: Sunday school and we walked over to the sanctuary. And 255 00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 1: this Immemorial Day weekend, it's not the biggest day of 256 00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:36,120 Speaker 1: attendance by any means. It was a little light right. 257 00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:38,920 Speaker 1: Many people were at the lake and in spending time 258 00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:41,520 Speaker 1: with their family, or traveling for the weekend, or getting 259 00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:44,000 Speaker 1: out of town with schools out. It was a light 260 00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:48,120 Speaker 1: day of attendance. But we were a few minutes late 261 00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:51,360 Speaker 1: because my twins were freaking out. We were dropping them 262 00:14:51,400 --> 00:14:53,480 Speaker 1: off and had to hold them for a minute, settle 263 00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:57,280 Speaker 1: them down, you know how it goes. And we walked 264 00:14:57,320 --> 00:15:00,680 Speaker 1: over to the sanctuary and we walk then to the 265 00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:04,040 Speaker 1: main area, the fourier of the sanctuary, and the doors 266 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:07,600 Speaker 1: were locked. We went to the next doors they're locked, 267 00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:10,680 Speaker 1: and then one of the deacons or elders walked up 268 00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:12,920 Speaker 1: and said, hey, you have to go to the end 269 00:15:13,520 --> 00:15:16,760 Speaker 1: since the services started and the indoors are the only 270 00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:19,320 Speaker 1: ones on the left and right side that will be unlocked. 271 00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:23,640 Speaker 1: Now the keyword there was unlocked. We walked down there 272 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:26,480 Speaker 1: and there was and I'm assuming I didn't ask, but 273 00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:30,880 Speaker 1: a member of the security staff, right, and this is 274 00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:36,200 Speaker 1: a deacon or elder or someone that volunteers. We're not 275 00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:41,640 Speaker 1: talking about paid law enforcement, who clearly sized me and 276 00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:44,680 Speaker 1: my wife up, making sure that we were, in their 277 00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:49,800 Speaker 1: best perceptive perception, a friendly. He then took a key 278 00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:51,800 Speaker 1: out of his pocket, put it in the door, and 279 00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:55,480 Speaker 1: unlocked the door to let us into the sanctuary. Now 280 00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:57,720 Speaker 1: why did he do this. It's because they were trying 281 00:15:57,720 --> 00:15:59,440 Speaker 1: to protect us so that we could go to church 282 00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:01,520 Speaker 1: and not have to worry about someone breaking in one 283 00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:05,200 Speaker 1: of these doors easily. They are trying to do what 284 00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:09,760 Speaker 1: they could through doors and locks to protect us and 285 00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:12,120 Speaker 1: our family while we attended church in the wake of 286 00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:16,520 Speaker 1: this shooting. I absolutely love that the church did this. 287 00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:19,760 Speaker 1: It did not make me feel like I was, by 288 00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:21,960 Speaker 1: the way at a jail, which is what many liberals 289 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:23,760 Speaker 1: have said, we don't want our schools to feel like 290 00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:28,760 Speaker 1: their prisons. This was a prison at all. In fact, 291 00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:32,560 Speaker 1: I felt incredibly safe and thankful that they were doing this. 292 00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:35,520 Speaker 1: Now they can do this at my church and have 293 00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:41,480 Speaker 1: a group of volunteers throughout the sanctuary carrying a firearm, 294 00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:46,560 Speaker 1: and then have law enforcement on site backing them up, 295 00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:50,680 Speaker 1: and then on top of that have doors that are 296 00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:57,360 Speaker 1: locked and security checkpoints and essence, then why the hell 297 00:16:57,400 --> 00:17:03,520 Speaker 1: are we not doing this with our kids. It's because 298 00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:09,639 Speaker 1: Democrats are saying no, they need to use these tragedies 299 00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:14,520 Speaker 1: to their advantage. They need to make sure that these 300 00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:20,879 Speaker 1: tragedies translate into ultimate gun control. And it's no longer 301 00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:23,960 Speaker 1: ar fifteens. It's now nine millimeters. As you heard the 302 00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:27,679 Speaker 1: President talk about this, it's now putting out more lies. 303 00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:30,520 Speaker 1: Lies that they say in the things that they say, 304 00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:34,399 Speaker 1: for example of oh, a nine millimeter bullet is designed 305 00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:37,320 Speaker 1: to blow your lungs out of your body. That's a lie. 306 00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:41,840 Speaker 1: Doesn't matter because the narrative is there and that's all 307 00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:48,120 Speaker 1: their care about. We have an opportunity to harden our schools. 308 00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:50,439 Speaker 1: We have the money to afford to do it. We 309 00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:57,160 Speaker 1: should do it. My kids are in private schools, those 310 00:17:57,200 --> 00:18:00,120 Speaker 1: doors are locked. As a parent, I can't get in 311 00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:02,119 Speaker 1: in the middle of the day without being buzzed in 312 00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:07,280 Speaker 1: and there's a camera looking at my face. Why can't 313 00:18:07,320 --> 00:18:10,320 Speaker 1: we do that at the public schools. When I go 314 00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:14,000 Speaker 1: to pick my kids up from school, there's multiple officers 315 00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:19,120 Speaker 1: who are there protecting my children. It does not make 316 00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:22,800 Speaker 1: it feel like they're in a prison. In fact, my 317 00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:27,639 Speaker 1: kids love the officers, know their names and high five 318 00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:30,040 Speaker 1: or give them knuckles when they get to school and 319 00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:35,000 Speaker 1: when they leave school. It does not feel like a prison, 320 00:18:35,800 --> 00:18:40,600 Speaker 1: as Democrats keep saying that talking point. Every time we 321 00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:47,800 Speaker 1: talk about protecting and defending our schools. Democrats constantly say 322 00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:50,760 Speaker 1: something has to change, but they don't really want anything 323 00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:53,040 Speaker 1: to change at the schools. The only thing they want 324 00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:55,600 Speaker 1: to change is the gun laws. In fact, Democrats just 325 00:18:55,720 --> 00:19:00,680 Speaker 1: introduce gun legislation, new gun laws that would have had 326 00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:04,439 Speaker 1: no bearing on the shooting in Texas. Five different laws 327 00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:08,159 Speaker 1: that they are now wanting and demanding. If all of 328 00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:11,960 Speaker 1: them would have been enacted, none of them would have 329 00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:20,560 Speaker 1: had any bearing on the shooting in Texas. Democrats, of course, 330 00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:24,160 Speaker 1: moving forward no matter what and voting on what they 331 00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:28,840 Speaker 1: say will save live six gun control measures that would 332 00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:31,919 Speaker 1: not have prevented the Uvaldey attack. I'll give you the 333 00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:36,880 Speaker 1: details on that. Democrats in the House Judiciary Committee held 334 00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:39,960 Speaker 1: a vote on a gun control package which includes six 335 00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:43,840 Speaker 1: gun control measures that would not have prevented the Uvaldey attack. 336 00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:47,840 Speaker 1: That is what we know for a fact. The package, 337 00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:49,840 Speaker 1: of course, though they title it and wrap it in 338 00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:53,320 Speaker 1: the dead Kids right, they titled it Protecting Our Kids Act, 339 00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:56,680 Speaker 1: because who could vote against Protecting Our Kids Act? That's 340 00:19:56,720 --> 00:20:02,360 Speaker 1: obviously a political move. Now, the PA contains eight gun controls. 341 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:05,320 Speaker 1: Six of those gun controls would not have prevented the 342 00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:09,080 Speaker 1: uvalde attack at all. Those six include background checks for 343 00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:11,800 Speaker 1: ghost guns would have had no bearing on the shooting 344 00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:16,760 Speaker 1: in Texas, gun storage requirements for homes with miners presence 345 00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:20,680 Speaker 1: that would have had no impact on this shooting, additional 346 00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:23,919 Speaker 1: penalties for gun trafficking and straw purchases which would have 347 00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:27,640 Speaker 1: had no impact at all on what happened in Texas, 348 00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:31,119 Speaker 1: a bump stock band which we weirdly enough already have, 349 00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:35,040 Speaker 1: which had no bearing on the attack in Texas, and 350 00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:39,440 Speaker 1: a requirement that existing bump stocks be registered under the 351 00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:43,200 Speaker 1: National Firearms Act, which would have had no bearing on 352 00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:47,680 Speaker 1: this shooting in Texas. The measure, by the way, also 353 00:20:47,800 --> 00:20:50,280 Speaker 1: changes the definition of ghost guns so that a background 354 00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:54,000 Speaker 1: check on such guns would be required going forward, which 355 00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:57,200 Speaker 1: would have had no bearing on the shooting in Texas. 356 00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:02,160 Speaker 1: The quote Protect Our Kids Act contains a ban on 357 00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:04,840 Speaker 1: bump stocks, although a bump stock ban was put in 358 00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:07,879 Speaker 1: place by the Department of Justice in twenty nineteen. So 359 00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:11,000 Speaker 1: apparently they don't even know that. If you want to 360 00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:13,960 Speaker 1: know why don't trust liberals with guns, this is why 361 00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:16,240 Speaker 1: they're they're putting in a new bill all of these 362 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:19,240 Speaker 1: things that would not have changed anything that happened in Texas. 363 00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:21,760 Speaker 1: None of these laws, if an actor, would have changed 364 00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:24,560 Speaker 1: anything with the outcome of what happened in Texas, and 365 00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:26,639 Speaker 1: none of them would have even applied to anything that 366 00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:29,600 Speaker 1: dealt with this shooter in Texas. And then they want 367 00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:32,320 Speaker 1: to ban bump stocks even though they've already been placed 368 00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:34,959 Speaker 1: in a band by the Department of Justice in twenty nineteen. 369 00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:38,959 Speaker 1: Apparently they don't even know that. The language. By the way, 370 00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:42,040 Speaker 1: the bump stock ban that was actually announced by the 371 00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:46,200 Speaker 1: Department of Justice in December of twenty eighteen is actually 372 00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:49,160 Speaker 1: tougher than the legislation there he put in the Protecting 373 00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:52,200 Speaker 1: Our Kids Act, So you could actually make the accusation 374 00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:57,000 Speaker 1: that they're softening the bump stock ban by the Department 375 00:21:57,000 --> 00:22:03,440 Speaker 1: of Justice in twenty nineteen. Now it's not just these 376 00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:08,680 Speaker 1: Democrats that are stupid better a Rourke, he's come out 377 00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:11,840 Speaker 1: saying aur owners should not be able to keep those guns. 378 00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:16,919 Speaker 1: He believes now that we shall have full confiscation. Semi 379 00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:20,679 Speaker 1: automatic rifles are now the target of New York Governor 380 00:22:21,800 --> 00:22:25,359 Speaker 1: Kathy Hotchel, and she's been joined with state Assembly leaders 381 00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:28,760 Speaker 1: to announce ten new gun control bills, including a new 382 00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:33,720 Speaker 1: minimum age and licensing requirements for all purchases of all 383 00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:36,600 Speaker 1: semi automatic weapons. So it's not just what they referred 384 00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:38,960 Speaker 1: to as assault weapons anymore, which goes back to what 385 00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:41,919 Speaker 1: I said before. This is not about banning AAR fifteen. 386 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:45,080 Speaker 1: This is about taking away your your your total right 387 00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:50,239 Speaker 1: to bear arms. Democrats, of course, are spending this as 388 00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:52,800 Speaker 1: the US Senate saying there, well, we're just moving with 389 00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:57,639 Speaker 1: a modest deal on gun control. What's even more embarrassing 390 00:22:57,680 --> 00:23:02,000 Speaker 1: than that, a congress who's actually from the state of Texas, 391 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:07,439 Speaker 1: Sheila Jackson Lee, actually went on TV, of course, making 392 00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:10,320 Speaker 1: sure she got on TV to talk about all this, 393 00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:14,480 Speaker 1: and said there was there was systemic increase of carnage 394 00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:19,560 Speaker 1: in this country using automatic weapons after the assault weapons 395 00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:23,399 Speaker 1: ban expired. She doesn't even know that the guns that 396 00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:28,920 Speaker 1: are being used aren't automatic weapons. They're semi automatic weapons. 397 00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:35,680 Speaker 1: And she wants me to trust her with guns. Really, now, 398 00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:39,080 Speaker 1: Sheila Jackson Lee does not get called out when she 399 00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:43,639 Speaker 1: does this interview on MSNBC lying to the American people 400 00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:47,040 Speaker 1: saying that there's been a systemic increase of carnage across 401 00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:51,680 Speaker 1: America using automatic weapons after the assault weapons ban expired. 402 00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:56,160 Speaker 1: She's so stupid that she doesn't realize that you can't 403 00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:59,280 Speaker 1: go out and just buy a machine gun. She's so 404 00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:01,960 Speaker 1: dumb that she doesn't realize that the assault weapons ban 405 00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:05,000 Speaker 1: that expired, that was put into place by Bill Clinton, 406 00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:08,760 Speaker 1: had nothing to do with machine guns. But let's let 407 00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:11,600 Speaker 1: her go on TV and lie anyway. Joining us now 408 00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:14,479 Speaker 1: is Representative Sheila Jackson Lee of Texas. She's also a 409 00:24:14,480 --> 00:24:16,240 Speaker 1: member of the House Judiciary Committee and one of the 410 00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:19,760 Speaker 1: lead co sponsors on that Package that Protect Kids Act, 411 00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:23,480 Speaker 1: that package of legislation, as I mentioned, that was introduced today. 412 00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:26,560 Speaker 1: Congresswoman Lee, thank you so much for joining us tonight. 413 00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:29,000 Speaker 1: Let me just get your reaction to the reporting that 414 00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:33,479 Speaker 1: Democratic leadership cannot find the votes to pass an assault 415 00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:35,720 Speaker 1: rifle ban. Is that correct? Can you set the record 416 00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:39,359 Speaker 1: straight for us on that well, first of all, thank 417 00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:42,240 Speaker 1: you for having me, and let me just say that 418 00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:45,399 Speaker 1: we've got to do everything we can to stop the 419 00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:47,639 Speaker 1: war on our children, the killing of our children, the 420 00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:51,440 Speaker 1: slaughter of our children, the carnage of our children. It's 421 00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:53,960 Speaker 1: because of democrats. All right, hold on, I want to 422 00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:56,159 Speaker 1: take it. If what she's saying is true, that we 423 00:24:56,200 --> 00:24:59,480 Speaker 1: need to do everything we can to stop the killing, 424 00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:01,359 Speaker 1: the carnage, and all the things that she just mentioned, 425 00:25:01,359 --> 00:25:04,639 Speaker 1: then why would you not advocate for hardening the security 426 00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:06,639 Speaker 1: at our school. It's the same way that the governor 427 00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:09,119 Speaker 1: in Ohio is doing it right now. Why would you 428 00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:12,080 Speaker 1: not say it is unconsortable that any school in America 429 00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:17,359 Speaker 1: today has a backdoor that's wide open. Why wouldn't you 430 00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:21,199 Speaker 1: come out and say that. Why wouldn't you say the 431 00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:23,159 Speaker 1: fact that this shooter was able to walk into the 432 00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:25,840 Speaker 1: school and my state is horrific and that we have 433 00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:28,920 Speaker 1: to fix immediately. That has nothing to do, by the way, 434 00:25:28,920 --> 00:25:32,760 Speaker 1: with guns. How is it that they can't even get 435 00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:37,680 Speaker 1: on the same page with us about protecting kids. The 436 00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:40,040 Speaker 1: only answer is back to what I said. They don't 437 00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:44,439 Speaker 1: care about saving kids. They care about about taking away 438 00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:49,560 Speaker 1: every firearm that you have listen to the second part 439 00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:52,159 Speaker 1: of what she says. That we are even where we 440 00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:56,600 Speaker 1: are today, which is this massive package, this omnibus bill 441 00:25:56,680 --> 00:26:01,119 Speaker 1: that we should be addressing this coming week. The question 442 00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:05,200 Speaker 1: of the assault weapons ban is not off the table it. Frankly, 443 00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:09,639 Speaker 1: I believe that we are moving toward having the boats 444 00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:13,119 Speaker 1: that we need. I have committed over the years, having 445 00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:16,480 Speaker 1: introduced bills dealing with the ban on assault weapons post 446 00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:19,320 Speaker 1: two thousand and four, as you well, Norman, that's when 447 00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:24,560 Speaker 1: it ended. And we saw the seismic increase of contage 448 00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:28,720 Speaker 1: across America using automatic weapons, and in the instance of Buffalo, 449 00:26:28,880 --> 00:26:32,400 Speaker 1: and the instance of Uvalde, having gone there on Sunday 450 00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:39,960 Speaker 1: meeting with and and and just listening to the sheer 451 00:26:40,760 --> 00:26:46,280 Speaker 1: desperation of families and children. That was an AR fifteen 452 00:26:46,440 --> 00:26:49,840 Speaker 1: as well. So I believe that we are on the 453 00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:52,600 Speaker 1: right track. Democrats will get it done, and we look 454 00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:56,080 Speaker 1: for our friends in the United States Senate to have 455 00:26:56,200 --> 00:27:00,520 Speaker 1: a sense of humanity and decency and courage to our 456 00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:05,760 Speaker 1: legislation forward. So are you hearing? So this is again 457 00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:09,920 Speaker 1: a woman that doesn't know the difference between the two guns. 458 00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:13,000 Speaker 1: She doesn't know, as she said, I'll break it down. 459 00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:15,600 Speaker 1: I've committed over the years, having introduced bills dealing with 460 00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:17,920 Speaker 1: a band of assault weapons post two thousand and four. 461 00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:22,159 Speaker 1: As you well know that when it ended and we 462 00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:26,120 Speaker 1: saw the systemic increase of carnage across America using automatic weapons, 463 00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:29,960 Speaker 1: that's just a lie. And the instance of Buffalo, and 464 00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:32,440 Speaker 1: the instance of your valley having gone there on Sunday 465 00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:34,760 Speaker 1: meeting with and just listening to this year desperation of 466 00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:38,640 Speaker 1: families and children, that was an AR fifteen as well, well, 467 00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:42,359 Speaker 1: I have to ask the question, does she know that 468 00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:48,240 Speaker 1: an AAR fifteen is not a machine gun? Or is 469 00:27:48,280 --> 00:27:51,080 Speaker 1: she lying to you and just doesn't care. What brings 470 00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:53,480 Speaker 1: me back to the New York governor. This is not 471 00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:56,520 Speaker 1: about saving kids' lives. This is about taking away your rights. 472 00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:00,240 Speaker 1: The New York governor, now the new governor, has join 473 00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:03,760 Speaker 1: the state Assembly leaders to announce these new gun control bills, 474 00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:07,560 Speaker 1: including a new minimum age and licensing requirements for the 475 00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:11,560 Speaker 1: purchase of a semi automatic rifle. Now, New York, as 476 00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:14,320 Speaker 1: you know, already has some of the toughest gun laws 477 00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:18,440 Speaker 1: in the entire country. And apparently they think more gun 478 00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:20,680 Speaker 1: laws are going to save people's lives. The same people 479 00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:24,440 Speaker 1: that advocated for defunding the police. Where now you see 480 00:28:24,520 --> 00:28:27,800 Speaker 1: carnage and out of out of control violent crime on 481 00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:31,200 Speaker 1: the subway systems and all over the state. What have 482 00:28:31,240 --> 00:28:33,560 Speaker 1: they said, not about protecting people? No, No, we're going 483 00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:36,240 Speaker 1: to strengthen gun laws, give law enforcement toils to prevent crime, 484 00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:39,560 Speaker 1: the same law enforcement that they just defunded, and quote 485 00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:43,160 Speaker 1: stop the spread of dangerous weapons. The bill would require 486 00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:46,640 Speaker 1: information sharing between state, local, and federal agencies when guns 487 00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:50,600 Speaker 1: are used in crimes, make threatening mass harm a crime, 488 00:28:50,720 --> 00:28:57,800 Speaker 1: require micro stamping of new guns, Increase accountability for social 489 00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:03,640 Speaker 1: media platforms, eliminate and fathering of large capacity magazines, Prohibit 490 00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:06,440 Speaker 1: the purchase of body armor for anyone who's unengaged in 491 00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:10,480 Speaker 1: an eligible profession, Strengthen the red flag law by expanding 492 00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:14,080 Speaker 1: the list of people who can file for extreme risk 493 00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:18,959 Speaker 1: protection orders and other measures, and require that individual obtain 494 00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:22,400 Speaker 1: a license by raising the age to twenty one to 495 00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:26,040 Speaker 1: purchase any semi automatic rifles. So you can't hunt now 496 00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:28,920 Speaker 1: with a shotgun, because if it's a semi automatic, you 497 00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:31,200 Speaker 1: can't buy it until you're twenty one, is what they're saying. 498 00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:35,560 Speaker 1: And close the any other weapon loophole. Whatever the hell 499 00:29:35,680 --> 00:29:37,760 Speaker 1: that means. I don't think they know what it means. 500 00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:42,840 Speaker 1: None of them have talked about hardening the schools. None 501 00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:46,040 Speaker 1: of them have talked about protecting our kids in our schools. 502 00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:48,200 Speaker 1: None of them have talked about the back door that 503 00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:51,840 Speaker 1: was left unlocked. How hard is it to compromise on that? 504 00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:54,320 Speaker 1: It isn't if you actually care about the kids, but 505 00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:56,720 Speaker 1: if you don't care about the kids, and you only 506 00:29:56,760 --> 00:30:00,120 Speaker 1: care about taking away and controlling a society, which is 507 00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:05,680 Speaker 1: what Democrats clearly are in favor of, especially especially now 508 00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:11,800 Speaker 1: that we know what has happened to the Democratic Party 509 00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:18,920 Speaker 1: post okay, post lockdowns, they're trying to bring back the 510 00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:22,920 Speaker 1: masks for goodness sakes. I mentioned that earlier these people 511 00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:27,520 Speaker 1: are totally obsessed with power. Now and these two subjects 512 00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:31,920 Speaker 1: now really come together as one subject in my mind. 513 00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:35,760 Speaker 1: You look at doctor Burke this week, Doctor Burke actually 514 00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:40,240 Speaker 1: came out and doctor Burke said that it doesn't They 515 00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:43,240 Speaker 1: don't have the time to explain the science behind matt 516 00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:46,520 Speaker 1: masking and their mandates. They just need it to happen. 517 00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:51,160 Speaker 1: Fauci says, the DJ challenge a mask ruling more about 518 00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:54,880 Speaker 1: authority and less about the mandate. That's what he's now 519 00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:58,760 Speaker 1: said about this. The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious 520 00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:02,360 Speaker 1: Diseases director doctor that He Fauci responded to criticism of 521 00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:05,600 Speaker 1: the Justice Department's challenged to afford a ruling striking down 522 00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:10,280 Speaker 1: the Biden administration's transit mass mandate, as well as Tesla 523 00:31:10,680 --> 00:31:14,000 Speaker 1: elon Must requiring employees to return to the office. In 524 00:31:14,080 --> 00:31:17,400 Speaker 1: an interview Wednesday on Your World, Fauci said it was 525 00:31:17,760 --> 00:31:20,040 Speaker 1: it would be inappropriate for him to comment on what 526 00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:23,920 Speaker 1: an employer does with their employees in reference to elon 527 00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:26,960 Speaker 1: Must declaring this week that employees who fail to return 528 00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:32,920 Speaker 1: to the office will be considered resigned. What did he say. Quote, Obviously, 529 00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:37,120 Speaker 1: different institutions, different enterprises have different approaches towards people who 530 00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:40,400 Speaker 1: are using their work hours from home as opposed to 531 00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:42,600 Speaker 1: being in person in the office, he said, adding the 532 00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:46,440 Speaker 1: the and I AID headquarters employees sometimes work from home. Quote. 533 00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:47,880 Speaker 1: I think it's going to be up to each individual 534 00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:50,760 Speaker 1: employer to decide what policy they're going to make for 535 00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:55,400 Speaker 1: their employees. But in terms of the April ruling voiding 536 00:31:55,440 --> 00:31:59,440 Speaker 1: the Biden mass mandate, Fauci said he understands why the 537 00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:03,360 Speaker 1: Justice Partment appealed the rulings, saying the idea of such 538 00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:07,640 Speaker 1: mandates at this point is less about a fixing masks 539 00:32:08,680 --> 00:32:11,600 Speaker 1: than it is to determine who or what has the 540 00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:15,200 Speaker 1: legal authority to make decisions moving forward. One of the 541 00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:17,320 Speaker 1: issues I have articulate in the past and I will 542 00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:20,239 Speaker 1: in the future, is it's less about mandates on the 543 00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:23,120 Speaker 1: plane than it is about who has the right and 544 00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:27,920 Speaker 1: the authority and the capability of making public health decisions. 545 00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:30,080 Speaker 1: And I believe that the Department of Justice is operating 546 00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:33,320 Speaker 1: on the principle that decisions that are public health decisions 547 00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:36,520 Speaker 1: belong with the public health agencies, in this case DCDC. 548 00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:42,000 Speaker 1: The CDC recommends wearing a face mask during her travel Fouch, 549 00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:45,360 Speaker 1: he said, adding his own personal preference, citing age and 550 00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:48,640 Speaker 1: other factor factors makes wearing a mask the better option. 551 00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:52,040 Speaker 1: He's not the only one that believes that people that 552 00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:55,080 Speaker 1: are unelected by anyone should have the power to do this. 553 00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:59,080 Speaker 1: You had Burke who went on TV as well this week, 554 00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:02,360 Speaker 1: and what it Burke's say about mass She said that 555 00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:05,840 Speaker 1: she believes that they don't have time to teach you 556 00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:08,080 Speaker 1: about the science, so we just need to be able 557 00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:09,600 Speaker 1: to do what we need to do. When we need 558 00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:14,280 Speaker 1: to do it. Sometimes we use mandates because we don't 559 00:33:14,320 --> 00:33:16,800 Speaker 1: want to take the time to explain the science and 560 00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:21,000 Speaker 1: the data. And okay, so doctor Deborah Burke's a woman 561 00:33:21,040 --> 00:33:24,719 Speaker 1: who's in charge of taking away your rights with doctor Fauci, 562 00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:31,200 Speaker 1: want you to understand that, Well, we don't always have time. 563 00:33:31,560 --> 00:33:34,480 Speaker 1: Mandates are used because we don't want to take the time. No, 564 00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:37,360 Speaker 1: let me rephrase it. It's not they don't have the time. 565 00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:39,600 Speaker 1: They just don't want to take the time to explain 566 00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:42,760 Speaker 1: the science. And I'm not putting words in her mouth. 567 00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:44,680 Speaker 1: That's what she just said. We don't want to take 568 00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:48,160 Speaker 1: the time used in certain situations. And I think sometimes 569 00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:50,720 Speaker 1: we use mandates because we don't want to take the 570 00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:54,600 Speaker 1: time to explain the science and the data. So we 571 00:33:54,680 --> 00:33:57,800 Speaker 1: don't we as scientists are so brilliant and so smart, 572 00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:02,320 Speaker 1: elected by no one, that we don't want to take 573 00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:11,560 Speaker 1: the time to explain to you the science or the data. 574 00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:16,600 Speaker 1: And since we don't want to do that, you should 575 00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:20,400 Speaker 1: just shut up and listen to us. You should just 576 00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:23,880 Speaker 1: shut up and do what we tell you to do 577 00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:27,280 Speaker 1: indefinitely right like this is this is this is about 578 00:34:28,080 --> 00:34:36,200 Speaker 1: indefinitely doing it right forever listen to us, obey us. 579 00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:38,640 Speaker 1: We don't want to take the time, not that we 580 00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:40,640 Speaker 1: don't even have the time. We don't want to take 581 00:34:40,640 --> 00:34:43,400 Speaker 1: the time to explain to you the science of the data. 582 00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:45,840 Speaker 1: You should just wear the mask. If I tell you 583 00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:48,919 Speaker 1: to wear the mask. We are elected by no one, 584 00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:53,960 Speaker 1: but we should have ultimate power over your life and 585 00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:58,799 Speaker 1: how you do things. Sounds an awful lot like their 586 00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:01,000 Speaker 1: same strategy that they're having right now when it comes 587 00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:04,080 Speaker 1: to gun control. We don't want to listen to you. 588 00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:06,360 Speaker 1: We don't want to talk about harding our schools. The 589 00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:09,000 Speaker 1: White House has said it, it's not part of our agenda. 590 00:35:09,160 --> 00:35:12,000 Speaker 1: We don't want to lock the back door. We want 591 00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:19,319 Speaker 1: to use the tragedy to push an agenda, a political agenda, 592 00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:23,920 Speaker 1: and that is a takeaway your Second Amendment rights. We 593 00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:28,400 Speaker 1: will call AAR fifteens, which are semi automatic machine guns. 594 00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:31,759 Speaker 1: Will call them automatic weapons because we believe that enough 595 00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:33,840 Speaker 1: of you are dumb enough in this country to actually 596 00:35:33,840 --> 00:35:36,400 Speaker 1: believe what we're telling you. We're going to tell you 597 00:35:36,440 --> 00:35:40,040 Speaker 1: that a nine millimeter will blow the lungs out of 598 00:35:40,040 --> 00:35:44,840 Speaker 1: your body, even though that's not what actually happens, and 599 00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:47,759 Speaker 1: we're going to tell you that because if we tell 600 00:35:47,840 --> 00:35:51,280 Speaker 1: you that enough, you'll believe it, and you will believe 601 00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:55,719 Speaker 1: that nine millimeter handguns should be banned for life, that 602 00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:59,680 Speaker 1: they're the worst things in the world. That's why we 603 00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:05,360 Speaker 1: do it. We can't win this conversation or this debate 604 00:36:05,440 --> 00:36:09,200 Speaker 1: in an intellectually honest way. We have to lie to you, 605 00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:16,200 Speaker 1: and that's what we will do. Make sure you share 606 00:36:16,239 --> 00:36:18,719 Speaker 1: a podcast.
