1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:06,640 Speaker 1: Be careful doing the dow aka drinking. Mountain dew. Used 2 00:00:06,640 --> 00:00:10,040 Speaker 1: to mean skateboarding and extreme sports, and there's mountain new 3 00:00:10,119 --> 00:00:12,560 Speaker 1: code read and that meant staying up all night playing 4 00:00:12,600 --> 00:00:17,200 Speaker 1: video games coding, And now mountain dew could actually land 5 00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:21,239 Speaker 1: you in prison. It's the Jewels Show. There's a crazy 6 00:00:21,280 --> 00:00:24,599 Speaker 1: story out of Pennsylvania, and there's a Pennsylvania man that 7 00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:28,400 Speaker 1: could spend the next seven years behind bars. When I 8 00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:30,360 Speaker 1: was hyping this up earlier, I said twenty five to life. 9 00:00:30,360 --> 00:00:32,240 Speaker 1: But that was me making a little more tra matchic. 10 00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:34,560 Speaker 1: But seven years is still a long time to spin 11 00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:36,840 Speaker 1: behind bars over a bottle of mountain dew, and really 12 00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:40,839 Speaker 1: specifically over forty three cents. What happened? A lot of 13 00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:43,520 Speaker 1: people are really upset about this actually, But police say 14 00:00:43,560 --> 00:00:48,440 Speaker 1: that Joseph Sobeluski or something like that bought a twenty 15 00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:51,400 Speaker 1: ounce mountain Dew from a convenience store and paid two 16 00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:54,640 Speaker 1: dollars before walking out of the store. Yeah, but the 17 00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:58,280 Speaker 1: price for the soda was two dollars and twenty nine cents, 18 00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:01,840 Speaker 1: so he technically underpaid by forty three cents including the tax, 19 00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:05,839 Speaker 1: and the sense was enough to charge him with felony theft. 20 00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:09,160 Speaker 1: What I've read the story, it's insane. Two strikes against him. 21 00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:11,319 Speaker 1: If you don't know the three strikes law. Three strikes 22 00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:15,120 Speaker 1: law is you get three felonies prison time. Right, So 23 00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:18,559 Speaker 1: there's people that are in prison for really crazy things. 24 00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:21,440 Speaker 1: Based on the fact that felonies shouldn't have the two strikes, 25 00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:22,920 Speaker 1: I do agree with that. Why didn't he just pay 26 00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:24,440 Speaker 1: the forty three cents then? I don't know if he 27 00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:26,640 Speaker 1: had it because he was homeless. That also seems excessive 28 00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:28,920 Speaker 1: to me. Yea, even even if it like over forty 29 00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:30,720 Speaker 1: few cents, you shouldn't go to jail. If you have 30 00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:33,080 Speaker 1: a third strike, you're out of here. But to me, 31 00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:35,360 Speaker 1: I'd have to find out what the other two felonies 32 00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:38,200 Speaker 1: are for because if they are for a similar thing 33 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:40,479 Speaker 1: where it could have been a misunderstanding. In this case, 34 00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:42,680 Speaker 1: we don't know, Okay, people stilling, No, I'm not okay 35 00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:45,000 Speaker 1: with that. But if it's over forty three cents, I 36 00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:47,279 Speaker 1: don't think you could go to jail for ten years. 37 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:50,320 Speaker 1: I think that's excessive. Well, it was seven, but seven's 38 00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:52,840 Speaker 1: a long time. Seven's a long time, but it is 39 00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:54,800 Speaker 1: seven sea and I'll probably get out with good time. 40 00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:56,280 Speaker 1: If he's a good person, but it's probably not because 41 00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:57,840 Speaker 1: he has two previous felonies and a third one coming, 42 00:01:57,880 --> 00:01:59,559 Speaker 1: so it's probably gonna be there for seven total years. 43 00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:01,960 Speaker 1: This right here is a great example of our legal system, 44 00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:04,920 Speaker 1: you know, because you got people who want to skirt 45 00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:07,720 Speaker 1: by the line, like English seven. Yeah, don't want to 46 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:10,960 Speaker 1: play by the written rule, thieves is what way cool? 47 00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:14,400 Speaker 1: And then you have people who go, it's written three 48 00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:18,519 Speaker 1: strikes out? Yeah, what about the three strikes logists in general? 49 00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:20,079 Speaker 1: Exactly do you feel like it's a good thing. I 50 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:22,120 Speaker 1: think our legal system sucks, and I think it sucks 51 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:24,920 Speaker 1: because I think it should have some sort of a 52 00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:27,800 Speaker 1: gray area, because there is a gray area in life, right, 53 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:30,280 Speaker 1: so you should be able to go all right, well 54 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:34,000 Speaker 1: the last two felonies were yeah, like the last two 55 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:37,440 Speaker 1: felonies were fifty five cents and felony one or felony 56 00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:40,680 Speaker 1: two or you know the classifications like if somebody you know, 57 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 1: does something to somebody else to their body that they 58 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:45,320 Speaker 1: should not be doing one strike and you're out right 59 00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:47,519 Speaker 1: sorry it broke. Oh yeah, that's totally true. And there's 60 00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:49,280 Speaker 1: reasonable doubt and things like that, like they have to 61 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:52,200 Speaker 1: show proof to convict you of things, right, they have 62 00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:54,880 Speaker 1: to show proof, but three strikes you're out. No, it 63 00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:57,040 Speaker 1: doesn't matter. It doesn't matter what it was, doesn't matter. 64 00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:58,960 Speaker 1: You know, there's so many people that are spending like 65 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:02,080 Speaker 1: life in and based off of having a baggie of 66 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 1: marijuana exactly, you know, and like, yeah, that's pretty victimalist 67 00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:07,639 Speaker 1: right there. I don't feel like our legal system is good. 68 00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:09,560 Speaker 1: And I'm saying that from someone who lost a lawsuit 69 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:12,680 Speaker 1: because things like that recently. But it gives you no 70 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:16,320 Speaker 1: room to actually make a judgment call. Yeah, you know, 71 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:19,560 Speaker 1: if you're stealing from somebody's business or whatever you're stealing from, 72 00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:21,680 Speaker 1: that's not okay. If you have a bag of weed 73 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 1: that grows from the ground, I personally think that's different. 74 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:26,640 Speaker 1: You're not steal from anybody, you're not hurt anybody. You 75 00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:29,359 Speaker 1: paid for it probably, Like, but that's a bit of 76 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:31,400 Speaker 1: a contradation then, because back in the day when it 77 00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:34,320 Speaker 1: wasn't legal, Like, what are you saying, they shouldn't have 78 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:36,960 Speaker 1: got as harsh of a sentence if it's if it's 79 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,200 Speaker 1: illegal still in a state, it should just be a ticket. 80 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:41,720 Speaker 1: Nobody should even be arrested. I think they've loosened up 81 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 1: the laws on it a little bit. But back in 82 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:45,680 Speaker 1: the day it was like stern right, the war on drugs. 83 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:47,120 Speaker 1: That was part of the war on drugs. People are 84 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:49,200 Speaker 1: at war with it. Our country was at war with 85 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:51,400 Speaker 1: those little baggies, you know s. We won. Some people 86 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:53,680 Speaker 1: see it just as bad as stealing from a business, right, 87 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 1: So that's I guess that's the hard part. Everybody's got 88 00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:58,240 Speaker 1: a different opinion. Yeah, and when there is they see 89 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:00,080 Speaker 1: things differently. Yeah. And when there is a gray a 90 00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:03,160 Speaker 1: people take advantage of the gray area. Yeah. You know what, 91 00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:06,120 Speaker 1: here's what sucks about our legal system, all right, And 92 00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:08,960 Speaker 1: this is again speaking as someone who lost the lawsuit 93 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:11,960 Speaker 1: because of things like this. Every single thing that is written, 94 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 1: like laws and stuff like that, other than I think 95 00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:17,240 Speaker 1: this reads strikes one of things like that is all 96 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:21,680 Speaker 1: open to interpretation from everybody, and the only person that 97 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:26,760 Speaker 1: matters who interprets it is the judge. So something could say, hey, 98 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 1: this guy should get smacked in the face, right, and 99 00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:33,599 Speaker 1: it's like very clear how you see it. The judge 100 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:36,360 Speaker 1: might read it and perceive it a whole different way. 101 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:39,920 Speaker 1: So it's all really based on how and it's all 102 00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:43,360 Speaker 1: open to interpretation is so weird to me, Like I 103 00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:45,240 Speaker 1: almost felt like it should be more black and white. Now. 104 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:48,159 Speaker 1: I started this off being like, let's loosen it up. 105 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:49,840 Speaker 1: Now I'm like, no, no, it needs to be very clear, 106 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:51,760 Speaker 1: like you do this, you get this, that's it. Yea, 107 00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:53,840 Speaker 1: it should be clear. I agree. I've always thought that 108 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 1: it should be clear. Yeah, I know you have, and 109 00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:58,480 Speaker 1: I know Englishevans are crook who wants to slide by 110 00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:01,640 Speaker 1: exactly supposed to steal if it's clear. Yeah, I've just 111 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:03,799 Speaker 1: changed my whole opinion on the thing in five minutes. 112 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:06,720 Speaker 1: Thanks for the talk. Text in four one O six one. 113 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:08,760 Speaker 1: What do you think? Do you support the three strikes rule? 114 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:10,279 Speaker 1: And should this guy be going to jail for seven 115 00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:13,240 Speaker 1: years because of forty three cents?
