1 00:00:03,080 --> 00:00:06,240 Speaker 1: Hey, it's Marximone here for Sean Hannity. Sean will be 2 00:00:06,320 --> 00:00:10,280 Speaker 1: back tomorrow. We'll take some calls later in the hour. 3 00:00:10,440 --> 00:00:12,559 Speaker 1: All right, now, let's talk to Carol Roth, who's a 4 00:00:12,600 --> 00:00:16,000 Speaker 1: great entrepreneur, author of a book on excellent book called 5 00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:19,239 Speaker 1: the War on Small Business. How the government used the 6 00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:23,640 Speaker 1: pandemic to crush the backbone of America. It's good to 7 00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:25,520 Speaker 1: have her back. What is Carol Roth? How you doing? 8 00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:28,639 Speaker 1: I'm doing well, Mark, Great to be back with you. Hey, 9 00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:31,360 Speaker 1: Explain what's going on in the world. It's just getting 10 00:00:31,360 --> 00:00:35,000 Speaker 1: crazier and crazier. First it was defund the police. Now 11 00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:39,960 Speaker 1: here's an LA mayoral candidates calling the police the watchdog 12 00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:42,760 Speaker 1: of white supremacy, and she vows to get rid of 13 00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:46,440 Speaker 1: the police altogether. What is going on in the world? 14 00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:51,360 Speaker 1: Will this ever go back to normal? One certainly hope so, 15 00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:54,639 Speaker 1: because the alternative isn't great. You know, I'm based out 16 00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:57,920 Speaker 1: of Chicago, and I remember back in the summer of 17 00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:02,920 Speaker 1: twenty twenty when my entire city was burned down with protests, 18 00:01:03,080 --> 00:01:07,720 Speaker 1: and we were very fortunate. Protesters came probably within a 19 00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:10,400 Speaker 1: couple of blocks of our home, but didn't quite make 20 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:13,440 Speaker 1: it there. And I remember thinking to myself, for everybody 21 00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:17,360 Speaker 1: who asks, why do you need an AR fifteen, this 22 00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:21,120 Speaker 1: is why the police didn't have an opportunity to do anything. 23 00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:26,320 Speaker 1: Because our governments here in Illinois, the mayor Laurie Lightfoot, JB. 24 00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:28,880 Speaker 1: Pritsker told them to stand down and told them to 25 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,240 Speaker 1: let these people do whatever it is that they wanted 26 00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:34,720 Speaker 1: to do. And so we have basically a bunch of 27 00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:37,600 Speaker 1: stubs who are running them up and a bunch of 28 00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:42,320 Speaker 1: people coming after, you know, good law abiding citizens who 29 00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:44,759 Speaker 1: want to protect themselves and trying to take away that right. 30 00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:48,560 Speaker 1: And it's a really frustrating situation. But you know, Albert 31 00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:52,760 Speaker 1: Einstein once said it's like the US is like a gyroscope. 32 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 1: If it ever leans too far in one direction, it'll 33 00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:58,160 Speaker 1: snap back to the center. But I don't see that 34 00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 1: happening here, do you. You don't know that it's ever 35 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:04,280 Speaker 1: snapped back to the center. I feel like it goes 36 00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:08,360 Speaker 1: from one polarity to the other, and I think in 37 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:12,079 Speaker 1: this particular scenario, I mean, you do see the pushback 38 00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:16,280 Speaker 1: that every time you know there's a call for gun 39 00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:19,359 Speaker 1: control and whatnot, that that's the biggest seller of guns 40 00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:22,320 Speaker 1: out there. But boy, it's going to take a whole 41 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 1: lot of changes in order to swing and even to 42 00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:30,280 Speaker 1: the center, you know, let alone the other direction. And 43 00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:33,920 Speaker 1: we're certainly not yet on that side of the gyros grope. 44 00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:37,519 Speaker 1: That's moving us back towards the middle, which is very, 45 00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:40,959 Speaker 1: very frustrating for Americans right now. Yeah. Now, you wrote 46 00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:43,400 Speaker 1: a great book, the War on Small Business, but it's 47 00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:46,800 Speaker 1: these government policies like a war on every business, major business. 48 00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:49,680 Speaker 1: It look at the airlines having to cancel thousands and 49 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:54,040 Speaker 1: thousands of flights, and they report that they can't get staff, 50 00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:56,320 Speaker 1: even just the venders that serve those planes that can't 51 00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 1: get any staff. And this is every industry reporting this. 52 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 1: What's going to change? Yeah, this is a great question. 53 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 1: I feel like Mark that the war on small business 54 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:09,360 Speaker 1: and the average American is the only war that the 55 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:13,280 Speaker 1: US government has won in the last multiple decade, whether 56 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 1: it's the war on drugs or you know, wars overseas. 57 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:18,959 Speaker 1: This is the only one. They're doing a really great job. 58 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 1: And unfortunately, and we have these huge supply and demand 59 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 1: imbalances that have resulted from government policy. Of Course, we 60 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:31,160 Speaker 1: had crazy fiscal spending. Of course, we had the federal 61 00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:34,600 Speaker 1: government spending. But there's not enough discussion of how some 62 00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 1: of the policies impacted things like the labor market, the 63 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:41,120 Speaker 1: fact that the Fed put money into the market, it 64 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 1: pumped up people's four oh one ks, it pumped up 65 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 1: their house's values. So we had three million people who 66 00:03:47,840 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 1: retired early out of the workforce. We had a clamp 67 00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:56,360 Speaker 1: down on legal immigration. We had two million legal immigrants 68 00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 1: who didn't come back into the workforce. And then we 69 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 1: had all this certainty with these COVID policies that basically 70 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:05,480 Speaker 1: people didn't know if their schools were going to stay 71 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 1: home or schools were to stay open, and their kids 72 00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 1: were going to stay home, and you know who's going 73 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 1: to go back and take a job. So now we 74 00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:16,040 Speaker 1: have a situation where they're basically almost two jobs available 75 00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:20,280 Speaker 1: for every job secret out there. And that completely sent 76 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:23,320 Speaker 1: everything into just array. So that is that long tale 77 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:27,279 Speaker 1: of the war. You know, these unintended consequences from central 78 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 1: planners thinking they can just turn off the economy and 79 00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:34,120 Speaker 1: flip it back on as if it were a computer modem. Yeah, 80 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 1: had they not done a lockdown in many states, what 81 00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 1: would have been different. You know, Florida didn't do a lockdown. 82 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:42,160 Speaker 1: You don't see a big difference in the numbers. Every every, 83 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:44,720 Speaker 1: I mean nothing would have been different with death. If 84 00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:47,800 Speaker 1: we had focused on the people who were at risk 85 00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 1: and we went through the mitigation strategies, we would have 86 00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:54,720 Speaker 1: saved the country economically and we would have had no 87 00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:57,440 Speaker 1: different outcome there. There have been different approaches all across 88 00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:00,520 Speaker 1: the globe. There is no outliers for those who didn't 89 00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:03,680 Speaker 1: go into these crazy lackdowns, but there is a huge 90 00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 1: difference financially from those that had the central bank intervention, 91 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:11,200 Speaker 1: for those that had the relief money in some of 92 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:14,479 Speaker 1: these other disruptions to labor and supply chain. So you know, 93 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:16,800 Speaker 1: if we had let the stock market fall, if we 94 00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:18,920 Speaker 1: had not been out the relief money, you probably would 95 00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:22,000 Speaker 1: have had the big business that say no way, this 96 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:24,760 Speaker 1: would have ended in the two weeks the fifteen days 97 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:27,039 Speaker 1: to slow the spread that they put out there, and 98 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:29,320 Speaker 1: we would have gone on and gone through this mitigation 99 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:31,880 Speaker 1: process which people are still dealing with now. I mean, 100 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:35,200 Speaker 1: everyone I know has COVID right now, and they are 101 00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 1: knock on wood surviving it because the people who had 102 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:40,920 Speaker 1: the risk factors are taking the right precaution and everyone 103 00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:45,520 Speaker 1: else is going about their business. Yeah. So and the 104 00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 1: shoplifting thing. That's another thing too. All of a sudden 105 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,880 Speaker 1: look the other way on shoplifting. It's killing big businesses, 106 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:55,480 Speaker 1: small businesses, scores, Los Angeles, New York, everywhere. I mean, 107 00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:57,560 Speaker 1: you can't buy anything in the drugstore in New York 108 00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:00,719 Speaker 1: right now. Everything is locked up. Even a pack of gum. 109 00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:03,360 Speaker 1: You have to get somebody unlock it. This has got 110 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 1: to kill these businesses, it absolutely does. I mean there 111 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:08,719 Speaker 1: was footage that was going around. I think I saw 112 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:12,040 Speaker 1: them on Fox News today of that Sephora where they 113 00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 1: just walked in with trash bags and just basically emptied 114 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:19,480 Speaker 1: out the store. So the big businesses are saying, in 115 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:22,240 Speaker 1: some of these big areas, you know, it's not really 116 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 1: worth us being there. We're going to transfer that business online. 117 00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:28,080 Speaker 1: And then it's the entire ecosystem. You know, if you 118 00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:31,240 Speaker 1: are a smaller business, you're a coffee vendor, you're a 119 00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 1: taxi cab operator, you're somebody who's in that ecosystem that 120 00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:38,560 Speaker 1: relies both on the foot traffic as well as the 121 00:06:38,839 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 1: employees being in those locations. When those big businesses go away, 122 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:46,640 Speaker 1: it has reverberations throughout the economy. The big businesses will 123 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:49,080 Speaker 1: be fine because they can move their business, But that 124 00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:51,400 Speaker 1: coffee vendor is not going to be fine. That's going 125 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:54,720 Speaker 1: to absolutely kill their business. Yeah, but even if you're 126 00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 1: the big business, even if you're a Saxsmith Avenue, Beverly Hills. 127 00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:00,200 Speaker 1: I watched them throw cinder blocks at the window, hit 128 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:02,960 Speaker 1: the baseball bets. It couldn't shatter it, So I asked them. 129 00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:06,719 Speaker 1: It turns out it's a shatterproof glass made to withstand 130 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:09,480 Speaker 1: a cinder block thrown at it. How about how did 131 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:11,680 Speaker 1: they know that? Haven't you somebody to even develop that? 132 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:15,000 Speaker 1: And Sachs knew they had to install it? What kind 133 00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:18,480 Speaker 1: of world is this? No, I mean, it's really frightening. 134 00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 1: It's it's basically it's it's ruining the quality of life 135 00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:25,680 Speaker 1: for everybody around. I mean, who wants to go to 136 00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:28,640 Speaker 1: travel to these areas. Who wants to go and just 137 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:32,080 Speaker 1: walk around your neighborhood. I mean, I live downtown Chicago. 138 00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:35,880 Speaker 1: I'm definitely not out and about the way that I was, 139 00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:38,120 Speaker 1: you know, a couple of years ago. And it's it's 140 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:43,200 Speaker 1: really a sad situation because they refuse to prosecute these people. 141 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:46,400 Speaker 1: They refuse to take a stand and treat this as 142 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:50,120 Speaker 1: if this is some sort of normal behavior and it's 143 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:54,760 Speaker 1: not something that any of us should be standing for. Yeah, 144 00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:57,440 Speaker 1: you know, even if you're a Democrat, even if you 145 00:07:57,560 --> 00:07:59,840 Speaker 1: believe all this stuff, after a few years of all 146 00:07:59,840 --> 00:08:03,640 Speaker 1: these people dead, killed, shot, all these stores robbed, wouldn't 147 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:05,760 Speaker 1: you say, you know, maybe this isn't working, Maybe should 148 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 1: try a different policy. I mean, one would thing. But 149 00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:11,360 Speaker 1: you know, now I'm trying to get into the mind 150 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:14,280 Speaker 1: of the crazy people who said to fund the police 151 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:17,120 Speaker 1: to begin with and thought that this was not going 152 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:21,760 Speaker 1: to result in these very obvious outcomes. And so you know, 153 00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:24,840 Speaker 1: there's a lot of mental gymnastics that are involved there 154 00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:27,000 Speaker 1: that it's very hard to kind of get your head 155 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:29,480 Speaker 1: wrapped around. But this is not you know, this is 156 00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:32,800 Speaker 1: not something that's political. This is something that impacts everyone. 157 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:36,560 Speaker 1: And by the way, it's also impacting the people who 158 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:39,120 Speaker 1: are doing these things, because at some point in time, 159 00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:41,559 Speaker 1: you know, either things are going to change or they're 160 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:43,679 Speaker 1: going to go into the wrong place, they're going to 161 00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:45,960 Speaker 1: end up getting shot. I mean, this is a place 162 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:53,679 Speaker 1: where we're destroying basic principles and values, and that impacts everybody. Yeah, 163 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:55,600 Speaker 1: then you got President Biden saying, now he wants to 164 00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:57,920 Speaker 1: ban nine millimeter handguns. They want to ban this gun. 165 00:08:57,960 --> 00:08:59,560 Speaker 1: They want to ban that gun. But if you ever 166 00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:01,560 Speaker 1: ask him I about locking up the criminals, Oh, we 167 00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:03,720 Speaker 1: can't do that. You can't have any bail, no jail. 168 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:08,440 Speaker 1: What How does anybody not put this guy in a 169 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:13,200 Speaker 1: mental institution? Yeah, it's um, you know, certainly, I have 170 00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:17,240 Speaker 1: many questions on whether he is the person in charge 171 00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:19,960 Speaker 1: of anything, and I think he just kind of, you know, 172 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:22,520 Speaker 1: whatever pops into his head. He tries to have that 173 00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:26,960 Speaker 1: come out his mouth, and usually not particularly coherently. And 174 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:29,480 Speaker 1: it's hard to kind of know what to do because 175 00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:31,960 Speaker 1: it's kind of hard to know who exactly the person 176 00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:34,640 Speaker 1: is in charge and what it is that they're trying 177 00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:37,680 Speaker 1: to accomplish, other than just by looking at the outcome, 178 00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:41,040 Speaker 1: you know, the destruction of our way of life. And 179 00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:43,560 Speaker 1: it's a it's a really really challenging thing. And I 180 00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:46,240 Speaker 1: understand people, you know, there have been a lot of 181 00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:48,560 Speaker 1: really bad things that have happened lately, and I understand 182 00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:53,200 Speaker 1: the emotional response, but the emotional response does not produce 183 00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:56,680 Speaker 1: a good outcome. And again, living here in Chicago, I 184 00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:59,400 Speaker 1: can tell you the people who are procuring guns. These 185 00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:01,959 Speaker 1: are legal guns. These are people who are not supposed 186 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:04,840 Speaker 1: to be having guns. So I can't imagine a scenario 187 00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:07,440 Speaker 1: where they want all of the criminals to have the 188 00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:10,320 Speaker 1: guns and then all of us to be outnumbered and 189 00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:13,079 Speaker 1: having as if said lived through, you know, the crazy 190 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 1: burning of my city a couple of years ago is 191 00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:18,320 Speaker 1: certainly not anything I would stand for. Yeah, Chicago, don't 192 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:20,760 Speaker 1: you have the toughest gun laws in the nation. We 193 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 1: have amongst the toughest gun laws in the nation, and 194 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:27,120 Speaker 1: we also have, you know, just horrific crime. I think 195 00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 1: over the Memorial Day holiday it was forty six people 196 00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:33,960 Speaker 1: who were shot in six people who were killed. And 197 00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:37,400 Speaker 1: again I think, if you probably go back, most of 198 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:40,959 Speaker 1: the firearms that are involved there are illegal and with 199 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:44,640 Speaker 1: people who should not have access to guns, and multiple 200 00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:47,760 Speaker 1: repeat offenders who shouldn't be walking around anyway. Well, Hey, 201 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 1: Carol Roth, great talking to you.

Aaron, how you doing? Hi? You don't 217 00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:55,439 Speaker 1: I'm doing good, Okay. I'm not saying about the school 218 00:11:55,440 --> 00:12:00,520 Speaker 1: shootings of this. Every time this happens, and time there's 219 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:04,319 Speaker 1: too many, they go on about, you know, gun rights 220 00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 1: or all this stuff, you know, getting rid of guns. 221 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:11,520 Speaker 1: Here's the things. Hey, you got I'm pro guns. They 222 00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:15,120 Speaker 1: say you got rid of all guns tomorrow? Are you fandom? Okay? 223 00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:18,080 Speaker 1: People are not going to just give up their guns. 224 00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:21,440 Speaker 1: The guns will be out there, there will be illegal 225 00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:25,040 Speaker 1: guns everywhere. They'll all be illegal if the criminal or 226 00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:28,760 Speaker 1: crazy person wants to do that, they will. So one 227 00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:32,280 Speaker 1: way that Democrats or anybody could really win right now, 228 00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:35,240 Speaker 1: it's you know, Democrats love to do everything on a 229 00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:39,680 Speaker 1: federal level. Many public schools are, you know, get federal funding. 230 00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:42,839 Speaker 1: We have a federal Department of Education. So let's go 231 00:12:42,920 --> 00:12:46,240 Speaker 1: all out like we did with the airports after nine 232 00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:50,920 Speaker 1: to eleven. Let's go let's get real security for our schools. Yeah, 233 00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:53,120 Speaker 1: it's a good point. Thanks for calling here, and it's 234 00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:54,920 Speaker 1: a very good point. You know, we had a big 235 00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:58,520 Speaker 1: problem with hijackings back in the seventies. Planes were being hijacked, 236 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:01,640 Speaker 1: but you know, a guy with a gun hijack the 237 00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:04,120 Speaker 1: plane was happening about once a week, twice a week sometimes. 238 00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:07,400 Speaker 1: So they put those sky marshals on every plane, sometimes 239 00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:09,640 Speaker 1: two or three of them, and that pretty much ended 240 00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:13,600 Speaker 1: the problem. You need to have school security. The problem 241 00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:15,679 Speaker 1: with the gun laws, even if you're a Democrat, even 242 00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:19,440 Speaker 1: if you're for these gun laws, the problem is if 243 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:22,040 Speaker 1: a politician passes a bunch of gun laws, none, that's it. 244 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:25,199 Speaker 1: They go back to sleep. They just don't do anything. 245 00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:27,600 Speaker 1: I hate to break it to you, but the crazed 246 00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:32,120 Speaker 1: maniac generally doesn't obey laws. So just because you made 247 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:36,199 Speaker 1: it illegal does nothing to stop a crazed maniac. They 248 00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:40,839 Speaker 1: don't care. And just because you banned something, make it illegal, 249 00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 1: doesn't mean it's gone, which I think we tried that 250 00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:46,840 Speaker 1: with drugs. I think we tried that with heroin and cocaine. 251 00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:51,280 Speaker 1: We made it totally illegal. Band that's it didn't make 252 00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:53,760 Speaker 1: a dent in the problem you're gonna I hate to 253 00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:55,320 Speaker 1: say it, but you could be an eighteen year old 254 00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:59,600 Speaker 1: kid and you can always get your hands on a gun. Hey, 255 00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:02,640 Speaker 1: any kid, I hate to say it, but any high 256 00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:04,480 Speaker 1: school kid can get his hands on drugs. He can 257 00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:06,800 Speaker 1: find a drug dealer and get drugs. And if you 258 00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:08,160 Speaker 1: were looking for a gun, all you gotta do is 259 00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:11,600 Speaker 1: ask the drug dealer, and whoever he works for generally 260 00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:15,960 Speaker 1: knows how to how to get a gun. So the 261 00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:20,160 Speaker 1: real problem go after the criminals. Here's Joe Biden wants 262 00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:22,880 Speaker 1: to ban this gun, this rifle, this weapon. Now, I 263 00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:26,440 Speaker 1: time about banning nine millimeter? How about banning these criminals. 264 00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:29,720 Speaker 1: You got all these Democratic district attorneys letting them all 265 00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:34,200 Speaker 1: back out on the street, no bail, no jail. It's insane. 266 00:14:34,640 --> 00:14:37,880 Speaker 1: Federalized that you know it's and you know Biden could 267 00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:41,360 Speaker 1: even stop these district attorneys. They're old Democrats. He's the 268 00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:43,240 Speaker 1: head of the Democratic Party. If he flew to New 269 00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:46,600 Speaker 1: York and met with that district attorney, marched into his 270 00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:49,560 Speaker 1: office or the one in Saint Louis or wherever, and said, 271 00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:51,280 Speaker 1: you got to stop this. You got to start putting 272 00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:54,160 Speaker 1: people in jail. You want any future in the Democratic Party, 273 00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:57,400 Speaker 1: you better listen to me. They would listen, but they're 274 00:14:57,440 --> 00:15:01,000 Speaker 1: not gonna do it. No bail, no jail, defund the police. 275 00:15:01,040 --> 00:15:04,120 Speaker 1: Here's a candidate running from mayor Los Angeles. She promises 276 00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:08,640 Speaker 1: pledges to get rid of the police department. In that 277 00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:10,960 Speaker 1: kind of world, your little gun laws aren't going to 278 00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:15,120 Speaker 1: make a dent in the problem. Hey, it's no secret 279 00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:17,720 Speaker 1: Americans are more divided than ever. And it's not just 280 00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:21,000 Speaker 1: over what policies will improve our great country. It's over 281 00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:23,120 Speaker 1: whether America is great at all, believe it or not. 282 00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:26,440 Speaker 1: People are debating that whether America deserves our love. Well, 283 00:15:26,720 --> 00:15:31,520 Speaker 1: that's why Imprimus Hillsdale's digestive Liberty is so important.

He'll be 310 00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:20,200 Speaker 1: back tomorrow. One eight hundred and nine four one sewn. 311 00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:24,439 Speaker 1: It's the number here. The headline is report says that 312 00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:29,200 Speaker 1: Biden is mystified his approval rating could be as low 313 00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:32,800 Speaker 1: as Trump's and that it's a big sore spot for 314 00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:35,119 Speaker 1: the president. Now, let me just think about this for 315 00:17:35,119 --> 00:17:40,760 Speaker 1: a second. Gasoline two dollars a gallon, economy booming, no 316 00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:48,400 Speaker 1: war anywhere, a total world piece supply chain, everything flowing perfectly. 317 00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:52,320 Speaker 1: You go from that to six dollars a gallon, supply 318 00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:57,520 Speaker 1: chain clogged, frozen, crime everywhere, the biggest crime spike we've 319 00:17:57,560 --> 00:18:01,520 Speaker 1: ever seen in the country. What was they had Biden 320 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:05,520 Speaker 1: mystified that his approval rating could be as low as Trumps? 321 00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:07,919 Speaker 1: How could it be anywhere near Trumps? It should be 322 00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:10,879 Speaker 1: light years below Trump. If it weren't for the rigging 323 00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:14,080 Speaker 1: of these polls, it would be worse. Actually, the latest 324 00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 1: approval rating is at thirty five percent for Biden. Thirty 325 00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:21,320 Speaker 1: five percent is not good. That's about as bad as 326 00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:26,200 Speaker 1: you can get. And remember with Trump, they always screwed 327 00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:29,320 Speaker 1: around with the polls. You know, they would undersample Republicans, 328 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:33,239 Speaker 1: they would not use likely voters, They'd use whoever they 329 00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:36,400 Speaker 1: wanted to call adults and use whatever group they want. 330 00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:41,040 Speaker 1: Biden says the problem is his communications team. They're not 331 00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:45,720 Speaker 1: getting his message out there. What was the message. I 332 00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:49,919 Speaker 1: don't know what the message was. He's like the worst 333 00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:52,000 Speaker 1: communicator ever in the history of the White As. He's 334 00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:56,080 Speaker 1: blaming the communications team. President is also told AIDS he 335 00:18:56,160 --> 00:19:01,600 Speaker 1: doesn't think enough Democrats go on television to defend him. Hey, 336 00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:05,719 Speaker 1: I watch MSNBCCNN all day long, and there's Democrats defending them. 337 00:19:05,720 --> 00:19:09,280 Speaker 1: The Sunday shows Democrats defending them all day long. The 338 00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:13,240 Speaker 1: report also says the president is particularly frustrated that his 339 00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:18,800 Speaker 1: use of the term ultramega has not only not worked, 340 00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:22,200 Speaker 1: it's been embraced by the right as a rallying cry. 341 00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:26,240 Speaker 1: You know, they had some focus group, survey group, test 342 00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:30,080 Speaker 1: out words to see we struck a nerve and it 343 00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:33,359 Speaker 1: was maga. Maga was considered a bad thing. This maga. 344 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:36,680 Speaker 1: That's the word that offended everybody, struck a nerve in people. 345 00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:39,520 Speaker 1: So that's where they came up with ultramaga. They wanted 346 00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:42,040 Speaker 1: to drill that maga word in. But again, they rig 347 00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:45,480 Speaker 1: these polls. They're so busy slanting them, they forgot they 348 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:49,760 Speaker 1: were slanted. They survey many more Democrats than Republicans, so 349 00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:52,000 Speaker 1: when they did the survey, of course they were offended 350 00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:54,720 Speaker 1: by the word maga. They were surveying democrats, so the 351 00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:58,080 Speaker 1: whole thing backfired. It's do you know that there are 352 00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:01,399 Speaker 1: gasoline companies oil companies, not it, but the companies in 353 00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:04,640 Speaker 1: all those gas stations that are now fixing the pumps 354 00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:07,600 Speaker 1: to add an extra digit to them because they believe 355 00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:10,200 Speaker 1: it'll go over ten dollars a gallon and they'll need 356 00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:14,919 Speaker 1: another digit. This is the problem. I think Biden and company, whoever, 357 00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:19,200 Speaker 1: who really runs this whole thing? Does anybody know somebody, 358 00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:21,919 Speaker 1: some group of George Soros types are all running this. 359 00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:25,320 Speaker 1: You know, the field coach is Ron Klain, chief of 360 00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:32,440 Speaker 1: staff and what's your name? Susan Rice. That's what I'm 361 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:34,840 Speaker 1: thinking of. That's how far unto the radar she stays. Now, 362 00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:37,520 Speaker 1: I couldn't remember her name. Susan Rice is like the 363 00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:41,120 Speaker 1: defense coach or so they've got calling the plays on there. 364 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:43,639 Speaker 1: You know, they type up the index cards and Biden 365 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:46,880 Speaker 1: reads them whatever they say. And don't think he won't 366 00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:50,000 Speaker 1: run again. This is the perfect guy for them if 367 00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:52,400 Speaker 1: you need a just a puppet to put out there, 368 00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:55,080 Speaker 1: this old guys to set him out there. He'll read 369 00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:57,840 Speaker 1: whatever you're right and that's it. So don't don't think 370 00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:01,600 Speaker 1: they won't run him again. But nobody, you know, keep 371 00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:05,480 Speaker 1: thinking this master plan, these master minds at work. Look 372 00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:07,160 Speaker 1: at the results. I don't think this is a bunch 373 00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:10,080 Speaker 1: of master minds doing this. Anyway. Let's take some calls. 374 00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:13,720 Speaker 1: Let's go to John and Vermont. John, welcome to the 375 00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:17,960 Speaker 1: Sean Hannity Show. Hey, thanks for taking my call. Mark. So, 376 00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:22,639 Speaker 1: in light of today's verdict with the suspend trial, and 377 00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:25,240 Speaker 1: of course Sean predicted that a week or more ago 378 00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:30,960 Speaker 1: that that would happen. But here's my question. John Durham 379 00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:34,240 Speaker 1: apparently is going full force in a couple of other 380 00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:39,240 Speaker 1: different directions and what's the incentive for somebody like him, 381 00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:42,040 Speaker 1: because he's going to end up with the same kind 382 00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:45,520 Speaker 1: of jury pool and judge in the swamp again. Yeah, 383 00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:48,480 Speaker 1: that's a good point. Thanks for calling. It's an excellent point. 384 00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:52,679 Speaker 1: You know, in the if you're the defense, you always 385 00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:55,520 Speaker 1: try to move the trial. We need a neutral location. 386 00:21:55,560 --> 00:21:57,000 Speaker 1: We can't have it here. We can't get a fair 387 00:21:57,040 --> 00:22:00,000 Speaker 1: trial in this jurisdiction. I don't know if you're the prosecutor, 388 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:01,879 Speaker 1: if you're allowed to do that, I guess you can. 389 00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:04,560 Speaker 1: There must be some way a prosecutor to move the 390 00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:10,359 Speaker 1: trial out of there. But you got Merrick Garland controlling things, 391 00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:14,320 Speaker 1: the most politicized attorney general we've ever had, So I 392 00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:16,240 Speaker 1: don't know what you can do. And it wasn't just 393 00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:20,000 Speaker 1: a bad jury that you get in Washington, DC, totally 394 00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:23,840 Speaker 1: anti Trump pro Hillary, but you had a judge you 395 00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:26,360 Speaker 1: had no business being on the tray. So many conflicts 396 00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:29,400 Speaker 1: of interest. His wife the lawyer of for Lisa Page. 397 00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:32,080 Speaker 1: He was married. He and his wife were married by 398 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:35,600 Speaker 1: Merrick Garland had so many connections to every inch of 399 00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:39,879 Speaker 1: the swamp. Shouldn't have He had connections to Sessman. Of 400 00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:42,240 Speaker 1: course he didn't recuse himself. This was the most rig 401 00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:46,520 Speaker 1: thing in the world. So I assume Durham's got a 402 00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:49,000 Speaker 1: plan B, and I assume we'll see it soon. Let's 403 00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:51,240 Speaker 1: go to a Kennon, Idaho. Hey, Ken, welcome to the 404 00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:55,160 Speaker 1: Sean Hannity Show. Hey, thank you for taking my call. 405 00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:57,399 Speaker 1: I don't think you have to worry too much about 406 00:22:57,400 --> 00:23:01,679 Speaker 1: the Sessman verdict. Well, there was a surprise on some 407 00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:03,720 Speaker 1: of the evidence that came out there, whether he already 408 00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:07,000 Speaker 1: knew it and it was confirmed. They can do conspiracy 409 00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:09,080 Speaker 1: charges throughout the whole thing, and they can charge that 410 00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:12,600 Speaker 1: in any jurisdiction where that conspiracy occurred. Yeah, well they 411 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:15,160 Speaker 1: could end up in Florida or anywhere else with it. 412 00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:19,719 Speaker 1: And you know that was a little charge. Well, they 413 00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:21,480 Speaker 1: got more than what they needed out of it, even 414 00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:24,840 Speaker 1: though they did not get the conviction. Yeah, well we'll see. Listened. 415 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:27,760 Speaker 1: Durham looks like a smart guy. I'm sure he's got 416 00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:31,200 Speaker 1: a plan B. I'm sure he's got this all. I'm 417 00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:33,479 Speaker 1: saying this, but I don't know. I'm hoping. We're just 418 00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:36,280 Speaker 1: hoping he's got this all mapped out. Thanks for Colin. 419 00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:40,600 Speaker 1: I don't know. He looks like a smart guy. But 420 00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:42,560 Speaker 1: I never trust a guy with those kind of mustaches. 421 00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:44,679 Speaker 1: You know, it's that comes to a point and the 422 00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:47,280 Speaker 1: all that facial hair all shaved and all these weird 423 00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:48,960 Speaker 1: I don't know. He looks like he's out of the 424 00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:52,439 Speaker 1: wild West. But I assume he's thought this all through it. 425 00:23:52,480 --> 00:23:56,240 Speaker 1: I assume he was prepared for something like this to happen. 426 00:23:57,280 --> 00:23:59,439 Speaker 1: And let's be honest, he's not the quickest guy in 427 00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:01,920 Speaker 1: the world. I mean, you started at the bottom, you 428 00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:03,880 Speaker 1: go after the little guy, you start the first one. 429 00:24:04,160 --> 00:24:08,280 Speaker 1: This took seventeen years. He may get Hillary, but you 430 00:24:08,359 --> 00:24:11,119 Speaker 1: got to get her during her lifetime. That's the problem. 431 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:14,800 Speaker 1: And this guy's so slow. Let's go to Steve and Tulsa, Oklahoma. Steve, 432 00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:18,800 Speaker 1: how you doing. Welcome to Sean Hannity, Doing great, doing great, 433 00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:21,680 Speaker 1: Thank you for taking my call. I just had a question. 434 00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:24,080 Speaker 1: You know, I've not no one's talked about it, but 435 00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:28,840 Speaker 1: I've seen pictures of the ars for the kid in Texas, 436 00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:34,080 Speaker 1: and he had supposedly sixteen or eighteen hundred rounds of AMMO, 437 00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:38,240 Speaker 1: and the pictures of those guns. Those are expensive guns. 438 00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:41,800 Speaker 1: You're talking a couple thousand dollars worth of guns. And 439 00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:46,160 Speaker 1: if you've priced AMMO lately, you're looking at a dollar 440 00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:48,280 Speaker 1: to a dollar and fifty a round, and he had 441 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:50,760 Speaker 1: eighteen hundred rounds. Where did this kid, eighteen year old 442 00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:54,240 Speaker 1: kid get all of this money? That's a good point. 443 00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:56,600 Speaker 1: Those two guns, I think come to like four or 444 00:24:56,600 --> 00:24:58,960 Speaker 1: five thousand bucks. You rate the ammos a lot of money. 445 00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:03,320 Speaker 1: It's two dollars a bullet. Yeah, it's fine. Know anybody 446 00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:08,400 Speaker 1: worth that? I don't. Yeah, that's like wow. So it's 447 00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:12,200 Speaker 1: a very good point. Where did all the money come from? Uh? 448 00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:16,120 Speaker 1: What are you implying that somebody funded him? I don't 449 00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:19,240 Speaker 1: think so. Well, I'm just curious. Nobody's talking about it. 450 00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:22,520 Speaker 1: And and just from what I've seen on the news, 451 00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:26,359 Speaker 1: I mean, his family doesn't look affluent. Where did he 452 00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:29,520 Speaker 1: get his hands on those weapons? Well, it could be 453 00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:31,520 Speaker 1: just to put him on his credit cards, winning to debt, 454 00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:34,080 Speaker 1: knowing he's never gonna be around to pay. It could 455 00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:36,199 Speaker 1: be something like that. I don't know. But thanks for 456 00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:39,640 Speaker 1: calling a lot of questions here. And you know, uh, 457 00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:44,480 Speaker 1: you can say, no, nobody needs sixteen hundred rounds of ammunition. 458 00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:47,600 Speaker 1: Nobody needs two of those. Nobody needs. But that's not 459 00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:50,359 Speaker 1: the point. The point is you gotta do something about 460 00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:54,840 Speaker 1: people like this running around on the loose. Uh. There 461 00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:58,080 Speaker 1: were four mass shootings every year. That was the average 462 00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:02,720 Speaker 1: for a year from nineteen hundred to nineteen seventy. From 463 00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:06,119 Speaker 1: nineteen seventy on, it was twenty nine a year. Now, 464 00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:08,080 Speaker 1: why would that change? What changed a while? It was 465 00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:11,840 Speaker 1: about nineteen sixty nine seventy where they stopped putting everybody 466 00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:15,480 Speaker 1: in institutions. They stopped, although they started emptying out all 467 00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:18,680 Speaker 1: the mental institutions. That is part of the problem. And 468 00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:21,119 Speaker 1: a lot of the cases they'll put them instead of 469 00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:25,480 Speaker 1: in an institution on those psychotropic drugs, where it says 470 00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:30,920 Speaker 1: right in the literature, side effects, maniacal behavior, homicidal behavior, 471 00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:35,160 Speaker 1: the Sandy hook kit on those drugs. So that's where 472 00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:37,960 Speaker 1: the real problem is. It's and again I keep going 473 00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:40,640 Speaker 1: back to this. As terrible as these mass shootings are, 474 00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:42,560 Speaker 1: by the way, we're talking about the fact checkers all 475 00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:45,640 Speaker 1: being asleep. Everywhere you turn you hear at democrats saying 476 00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:48,640 Speaker 1: we're the only country that has these mass shootings. Absolutely 477 00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:52,400 Speaker 1: not true, not even close. In fact, the only way 478 00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:55,399 Speaker 1: to measure that fairly is per capita, per capita, I 479 00:26:55,400 --> 00:26:58,440 Speaker 1: think we're number eleven on the list. Ten countries beat 480 00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:04,040 Speaker 1: us in mass shootings per capita. But the real concern 481 00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:06,880 Speaker 1: here is you got nineteen thousand people shot every year 482 00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:10,600 Speaker 1: in gun violence, almost all of them on the streets 483 00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:14,680 Speaker 1: of our cities Crime, Chicago, New York, Philadelphia, that's where 484 00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:18,880 Speaker 1: all the gun violence is. The mass shootings, the schools, Buffalo, 485 00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:22,600 Speaker 1: those types of things. Of this are zero point two 486 00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:26,480 Speaker 1: percent of shootings, zero point two percent of shootings. So 487 00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:29,160 Speaker 1: it's great that Democrats show all this concern about this, 488 00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:32,879 Speaker 1: but what about the ninety nine point eight percent? And 489 00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:35,560 Speaker 1: that's about getting those criminals off the street.
