Half the politicians in our country have little 15 00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:04,440 Speaker 4: more to offer than thoughts and prayers. 16 00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:05,640 Speaker 2: That is all they are offering. 17 00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:07,760 Speaker 3: Join all of us in praying for the victims, was 18 00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:09,720 Speaker 3: Vice President Jady Vince's response today. 19 00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:10,440 Speaker 2: That's what he said. 20 00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:11,120 Speaker 4: That's it. 21 00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:13,400 Speaker 1: Please join me in praying for everyone involved. 22 00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:16,920 Speaker 6: Trump wrote, forget about thoughts and prayers. These kids were 23 00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:21,280 Speaker 6: literally praying when they were murdered through a church window. 24 00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:24,360 Speaker 7: Thoughts and prayers just earned enough here right now, these 25 00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:25,840 Speaker 7: kids were actually praying. 26 00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:27,880 Speaker 8: At the end of the day, thoughts and prayers have 27 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:35,440 Speaker 8: led us to having more of these deaths, more these shootings. 28 00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:41,080 Speaker 8: I actually had a negative reaction to the mayor's statements today. 29 00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:45,600 Speaker 8: I think it's wrong, frankly, to vilify or attack people 30 00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:48,080 Speaker 8: of faith. You said thoughts, some prayers ring hollow. I 31 00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:51,320 Speaker 8: think thoughts and prayers are the most solid on days 32 00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 8: of tragedy for people who live their faith every day. 33 00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 8: And I think on a day like today, particularly in 34 00:01:56,920 --> 00:02:00,600 Speaker 8: a church community, there are probably people praying harder for 35 00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 8: comfort today than they have ever prayed in their life. 36 00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:06,360 Speaker 8: And so I think, and I've heard others on the 37 00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:10,360 Speaker 8: left today go down this line of attack against people 38 00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:14,200 Speaker 8: of faith, sort of denigrating the idea that they might 39 00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:17,760 Speaker 8: want to pray today. And so I think his statements 40 00:02:17,760 --> 00:02:21,040 Speaker 8: were misguided. And I just thought maybe tonight the most 41 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:22,959 Speaker 8: useful thing any of us can do would take ten 42 00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:27,480 Speaker 8: seconds and just sit quietly and be still, and be 43 00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:30,560 Speaker 8: quiet and think about those families, because they are never 44 00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:34,359 Speaker 8: going to be the same no matter what we say. 45 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:41,840 Speaker 4: That's my prayer days. 46 00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:48,679 Speaker 3: You are the praying type, I would ask you to 47 00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:50,079 Speaker 3: join me in prayer. I'm just going to say a 48 00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:53,400 Speaker 3: prayer for the two little kids who lost their lives yesterday, 49 00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:54,960 Speaker 3: and this is a prayer we say a lot in 50 00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:57,680 Speaker 3: my church and I've always found it very meaningful. It's 51 00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 3: very short, but rests grants unto them a Lord, and 52 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:08,600 Speaker 3: let perpetual lights shine upon them. May the souls of 53 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 3: all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God rest 54 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:12,880 Speaker 3: in peace. 55 00:03:13,120 --> 00:03:24,239 Speaker 4: Have Then eight. 56 00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 1: Hundred and thirty new laws went into effect September one. 57 00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:29,799 Speaker 2: We've mentioned many. 58 00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 1: Times when the biennial every two years legislative session completes 59 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:41,520 Speaker 1: after one hundred and fifty days, they build in a 60 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:45,960 Speaker 1: start date for those laws to give people time to prepare. 61 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:50,280 Speaker 1: Usually the legislature is not in session at this point. 62 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:54,640 Speaker 1: But of course we're now on our special session, occasioned 63 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 1: by the fact that the Democrats fled to Illinois and 64 00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 1: made a mockery of the process, for which we now 65 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 1: know they've not been punished because the Democrats managed very 66 00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 1: very cleverly. May I say, they sold out the Republican 67 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:15,480 Speaker 1: Party by getting Dennis Burrows, before him drunk, davee Feelin 68 00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 1: and before him Joe Strauss, and you had Dennis bonding 69 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:23,600 Speaker 1: and this this has been this bonding in between Strauss, 70 00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:26,680 Speaker 1: this has been the game they play. So when the 71 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:29,520 Speaker 1: Democrats fled to Illinois, it put Burrows in the awkward 72 00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 1: situation of saying, y'all better come back here dead, Bernie, 73 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 1: or there'll be consequences were not coming back well please. 74 00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:44,480 Speaker 1: So anyway, those laws go into effect on September one, 75 00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:49,479 Speaker 1: one of them in all but eleven school districts, requiring 76 00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:55,880 Speaker 1: the Ten Commandments be posted. We'll discuss that a little 77 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:58,360 Speaker 1: later in the show You Know. 78 00:04:58,320 --> 00:04:58,720 Speaker 4: What im on. 79 00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:01,920 Speaker 1: One of my favorite parts of the More News is 80 00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 1: uh Sky Mike's traffic Report. 81 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:06,320 Speaker 2: I don't get to listen very. 82 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:08,719 Speaker 1: Often, but I happen to be able to listen this morning, 83 00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:13,000 Speaker 1: and I love the fact that he brings in callers 84 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:15,919 Speaker 1: from different people, and the callers make their case. 85 00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 2: Some guy like is Bob over on the hard work 86 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:21,200 Speaker 2: and he's Den, and. 87 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:23,920 Speaker 1: Then there's some guy who's Golden Triangle like they give 88 00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 1: themselves names. 89 00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:26,560 Speaker 2: It's hilarious. 90 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 1: And then and at some point he tells a joke 91 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,440 Speaker 1: about being a lifeguard at the end of his call in. 92 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:36,080 Speaker 2: As a call in listener, I mean, that's just money. 93 00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 1: That is old fashioned community radio, real personalities, real voices, 94 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:43,360 Speaker 1: the whole deal. 95 00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:49,280 Speaker 2: So there's a story in the news. This was a 96 00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 2: new term to me. 97 00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:53,480 Speaker 1: Charges had been filed after an eleven year old boy 98 00:05:53,520 --> 00:06:00,560 Speaker 1: who was playing ding Dong ditch game is shocking in 99 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:05,480 Speaker 1: East Houston on Saturday night. Now, best I can tell 100 00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:10,239 Speaker 1: you run up to the house, knock on the door 101 00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:16,719 Speaker 1: and run away. I've never heard that called ding Dong ditch. 102 00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:18,800 Speaker 1: Khou with the story. 103 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,719 Speaker 9: This is the case now getting national attention. We have 104 00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:25,039 Speaker 9: been telling you that police say the boy rang the 105 00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 9: doorbell at a home on Membro at Fidelity in Houston 106 00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:32,320 Speaker 9: at East Houston around eleven o'clock Saturday night. Police also 107 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 9: say a man inside that home chased after the kids 108 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:39,240 Speaker 9: and opened fire, hitting the boy in the back. He 109 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:42,599 Speaker 9: later died at the hospital. Investigators tell us that boy 110 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:45,760 Speaker 9: was visiting family in the neighborhood for a birthday party. 111 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:49,480 Speaker 9: Neighbors calling this a tragedy but also a wake up 112 00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:50,680 Speaker 9: call for parents. 113 00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:51,839 Speaker 2: Kids, which is being kids. 114 00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:55,560 Speaker 7: I feel like we've all played these you know, ding 115 00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:58,240 Speaker 7: Dong ditch, all these games, and just to get the 116 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:02,560 Speaker 7: end result of this, I think that's the most shocking. 117 00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:05,120 Speaker 5: I kind of hold both of them account because you know, 118 00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:07,080 Speaker 5: you got to keep an eye on your kids. You 119 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:09,600 Speaker 5: gotta chease them and you know, let them know what's 120 00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:12,040 Speaker 5: right and what's wrong. And it's wrong to knock on 121 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:14,440 Speaker 5: somebody though, playing a frank. 122 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 2: That's what I'm talking about. Don't knock on somebody though. 123 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:25,840 Speaker 1: So we saw that this activity was picking up again 124 00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:31,720 Speaker 1: after a little while. And you know, the problem is 125 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:36,440 Speaker 1: where I grew up, and it was not called ding 126 00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 1: Dong ditch. 127 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 2: Where I grew up, it was a little different. 128 00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 1: We didn't do it because we probably would have gotten 129 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:45,680 Speaker 1: shot too, because it was out in the country. But 130 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:49,760 Speaker 1: when you live in Houston, where people are feel there 131 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:54,120 Speaker 1: under assault in a war zone day in and day out, 132 00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:58,600 Speaker 1: you are frightening them. And people don't like to be frightened. 133 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:02,120 Speaker 1: They have to live on heightened alert because you're doing 134 00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:06,800 Speaker 1: this nonsense. And when you go banging on somebody's door 135 00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:09,560 Speaker 1: and then running off, you're creating a situation. 136 00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:13,960 Speaker 2: It's far more likely. No, we didn't call it that either. 137 00:08:14,640 --> 00:08:18,360 Speaker 1: It's far more likely that they are under attack and 138 00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:21,040 Speaker 1: they're ready to shoot somebody. So expect to get shot, 139 00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:29,720 Speaker 1: or just don't do it, be honest, Michael Berry, almost go. 140 00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:34,360 Speaker 4: I tell you so. 141 00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:37,120 Speaker 2: So these young folks. 142 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:40,640 Speaker 1: Are running up and banging on the door and then 143 00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:44,880 Speaker 1: running away, and I suppose at a different time that 144 00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:46,240 Speaker 1: might have had a different result. 145 00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 2: But one of them got shot and killed. Did it 146 00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 2: kill him? I don't know if it did kill him. Oh, 147 00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:56,679 Speaker 2: he did die. 148 00:08:56,800 --> 00:09:02,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, And so the question comes, why would somebody shoot 149 00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:06,720 Speaker 1: in a situation like this. Apparently they call this game 150 00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:09,120 Speaker 1: ding Dong ditch. That's not what I heard it called, 151 00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:11,760 Speaker 1: but that's what they call it. Laverne writes. 152 00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:18,440 Speaker 10: Let's see if i'm finding her email. Laverne writes, I 153 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 10: can't get it to pop up. Well, see if I 154 00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:29,319 Speaker 10: can find it. Uh, she said there's another. Yeah, yeah, 155 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:33,240 Speaker 10: that's what Laverne writes. Okay, here it is. Laverne writes, Michael, 156 00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:38,040 Speaker 10: what you're thinking about is ring a bell run like hell? No, No, 157 00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 10: that's not what I heard it called either. Let's see 158 00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:43,960 Speaker 10: if I got the other. Somebody else said it's called 159 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:47,120 Speaker 10: something else. Let me see if I can pull this 160 00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:49,360 Speaker 10: up another. 161 00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:57,959 Speaker 2: Name I hadn't heard. Uh, let's see. Yeah, No, I 162 00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:01,040 Speaker 2: don't I don't know, never heard ding dong ditch. I 163 00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:02,880 Speaker 2: never heard ring a bell run like hell. 164 00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 4: So. 165 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:09,000 Speaker 1: A criminal defense attorney on Fox twenty six says, I 166 00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:11,320 Speaker 1: don't see a self defense in the case the kid 167 00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:12,079 Speaker 1: was running away. 168 00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:15,000 Speaker 11: Yeah, I don't see any justification there. In Texas, you 169 00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:17,600 Speaker 11: have the right to use force if you reasonably believe 170 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 11: that it's immediately necessary to counterforce. Based on the defects 171 00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:23,080 Speaker 11: we know so far, it looks like it was simply 172 00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:25,400 Speaker 11: a kid ringing the doorbell and leaving the property and 173 00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:28,720 Speaker 11: running away. So under those facts, I don't see any 174 00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:30,560 Speaker 11: scenario where it's justified as self defense. 175 00:10:30,679 --> 00:10:32,880 Speaker 12: When we're looking at a case like this one, what 176 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:36,440 Speaker 12: if this person were to be inside their house, when 177 00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:38,560 Speaker 12: do you have the right to defend yourself? 178 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:42,360 Speaker 11: So, just like normal self defense, it's reasonably justified immediately 179 00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:45,000 Speaker 11: necessary to protect yourself. But there's a caveat that. If 180 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:48,600 Speaker 11: it's at night and the person is in the forcible entry, 181 00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:51,200 Speaker 11: so they're committing burglary or activated assault or something like that, 182 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:54,080 Speaker 11: the law presumes that it's reasonable. So if I'm sleeping 183 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:56,160 Speaker 11: in my bed and someone breaks into my house, I 184 00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:58,320 Speaker 11: can shoot them to defend myself and defend my property. 185 00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:01,720 Speaker 11: The law presumes that it's reasonable at that time. If 186 00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:03,400 Speaker 11: you look at the bottom part of the self defuence 187 00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:05,000 Speaker 11: law on the Code, it says that you can use 188 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:07,680 Speaker 11: that beforece if something is stolen from you and you 189 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:09,480 Speaker 11: have a reasonable belief that it's not going to be 190 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:10,800 Speaker 11: You're not gonna be able to get it back. But 191 00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:13,080 Speaker 11: simply ringing the doorbell and running away, if you know 192 00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:16,080 Speaker 11: the person's fleeing the scene, has it taken anything, has 193 00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 11: it broken into the house? No forcible entry, there's no threat. 194 00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 11: I just don't see self defense. 195 00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:25,120 Speaker 1: Well I do, and I think members of the jury would. 196 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:28,800 Speaker 1: And you know what you do, you you start rolling out. 197 00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:31,200 Speaker 1: These are the side of it. We don't live in 198 00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:35,360 Speaker 1: a safe society, especially if you live in the city. 199 00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:40,079 Speaker 1: You know why Rick doak Is is taking people out 200 00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:44,720 Speaker 1: to sea houses in Chapel Hill and Waller and Brenham 201 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:48,560 Speaker 1: and Belleville. You know what they're getting away from. It's 202 00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 1: not different weather. They're getting away from the trash. And 203 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 1: there are people who are trash. They're complete and utter trash. 204 00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:01,280 Speaker 1: We all know, we've all been in a public place 205 00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:04,240 Speaker 1: with people that are trash. And if you think what 206 00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:07,040 Speaker 1: I'm saying is black, it's not true. I have two 207 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:09,560 Speaker 1: sons that are black. I think they're the greatest thing ever. 208 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:13,080 Speaker 1: But there are people who are trash, and a lot 209 00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:13,880 Speaker 1: of them are black. 210 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:16,960 Speaker 2: That is a fact. There's some white trash. 211 00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:22,480 Speaker 1: There's there's some Hispanic trash, there's some there's some of everything. 212 00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:25,640 Speaker 1: But there is no doubt the inner city urban core 213 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:33,319 Speaker 1: is rotten. It is absolute and absolutely rotten. No, Ramon, 214 00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:37,079 Speaker 1: that's not what it was called. No, it was called 215 00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:37,760 Speaker 1: knock and run. 216 00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:38,959 Speaker 2: That's what it was called. 217 00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:44,320 Speaker 1: Knock and runs, the term we're thinking about when you 218 00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 1: in the city of Chicago. I've heard fifty three shootings 219 00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:49,320 Speaker 1: over the weekend. I've heard fifty four and I've heard 220 00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:51,400 Speaker 1: fifty six. It depends on what your cutoff time is 221 00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 1: because you got to keep updating, and the weekends are 222 00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:57,680 Speaker 1: more active, which is always kind of interesting to me. 223 00:12:57,760 --> 00:12:59,600 Speaker 2: But well, I'll tell you why. 224 00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:02,360 Speaker 1: Because the weekends are when they have house parties, and 225 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:04,600 Speaker 1: house parties where a lot of the shootings come down. 226 00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:07,880 Speaker 1: So can you imagine Blu Ray having a house party 227 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:11,760 Speaker 1: on Saturday. Oh that's not like fun. And here you 228 00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:13,720 Speaker 1: are on Saturday and shots bring out. 229 00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:16,959 Speaker 2: Well, this is a story that I love. 230 00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:20,679 Speaker 1: The ending of a man who tried to break into 231 00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:23,440 Speaker 1: an Aldan Area home, cuts his arm on the glass, 232 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:27,319 Speaker 1: then bleeds out and dies. I mean, how perfect is that. 233 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:28,040 Speaker 1: The story from. 234 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:32,000 Speaker 12: Khou Daylight reveals the damage left behind at the stuplex 235 00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:35,000 Speaker 12: along Bluebell Road, a shattered window that Houston police say 236 00:13:35,080 --> 00:13:37,240 Speaker 12: was smashed by a man trying to break in around 237 00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:40,120 Speaker 12: two am Saturday. At first, investigators treated it as a 238 00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:43,240 Speaker 12: possible homicide, but later determined the man bled out after 239 00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 12: severely cutting his arm on the broken glass. Responding officers 240 00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:49,760 Speaker 12: said they found him unconscious, not breathing, and surrounded by blood. 241 00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:52,800 Speaker 12: His death has since been ruled accidental. Overnight, the scenes 242 00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:55,760 Speaker 12: sworn with police surveillance video from a nearby neighbor, obtained 243 00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:59,080 Speaker 12: exclusively by kh You Love and Capture the aftermath, showing 244 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:05,040 Speaker 12: officers surrounding the suspect on the ground, then Emmi inside 245 00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:08,160 Speaker 12: the duplex two sisters.

Three videos 308 00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:48,080 Speaker 1: looked to me about twelve to fifteen years old. All 309 00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:51,320 Speaker 1: ran up to the porch and each took a turn 310 00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:55,480 Speaker 1: kicking the door as hard as they could and run off. 311 00:17:56,560 --> 00:18:00,480 Speaker 1: But in one instance, the third kick opened the door. 312 00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:06,080 Speaker 1: The boys immediately ran into the house, quickly exited with guns, 313 00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:09,840 Speaker 1: oh sorry, with arms full of whatever they could grab. 314 00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:13,720 Speaker 2: This is not a game. This is attempted burglary. 315 00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:17,360 Speaker 1: Again, I've not seen any video of the Houston incident, 316 00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:20,680 Speaker 1: but the video I saw ain't no game. It's young 317 00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:24,679 Speaker 1: boys intending to break into a house. Well, wouldn't that 318 00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:27,840 Speaker 1: be interesting if what we got on our hands is 319 00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:29,000 Speaker 1: another Trayvon Martin. 320 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:35,159 Speaker 2: Oh Trayvon. He was just walking home. He liked to 321 00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:37,439 Speaker 2: eat M and M's and. 322 00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:41,520 Speaker 1: His favorite reruns with Idream a Genie, Remember how they 323 00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:42,959 Speaker 1: remember how they meet Trayvon. 324 00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:46,520 Speaker 2: Such a nice guy. And then you had George Zimmerman. 325 00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:49,080 Speaker 2: He was a white guy. Even though it was Hispanic, 326 00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:50,080 Speaker 2: it was. 327 00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:53,320 Speaker 1: Important to he'd be white, and he was part of 328 00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:56,640 Speaker 1: the volunteer neighborhood patrol. Wonder why you need that because 329 00:18:56,680 --> 00:19:00,359 Speaker 1: of a bunch of Trayvon Martin's and he's driving your round. 330 00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:04,119 Speaker 1: And Trayvon doesn't like to be asked questions, so he 331 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:06,919 Speaker 1: does to George Zimmerman, Zimmerman what he had done to 332 00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:10,560 Speaker 1: the bus teacher, bus driver, and I believe his father 333 00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:13,399 Speaker 1: and a number of other people. He raged and started 334 00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:19,800 Speaker 1: punching and kicking, and George Zimmerman pushed back, and Trayvon 335 00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:23,240 Speaker 1: had him dead to rights. He's got his head going. 336 00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:26,280 Speaker 1: American history acts on the on the pavement with him 337 00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:30,600 Speaker 1: banging his head, busted his head, split it open. So Zimmerman, 338 00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:34,200 Speaker 1: left with no choice, kills him. Now, all of a sudden, 339 00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:38,399 Speaker 1: we got Barack Obama. I am Trayvon Martin. If I 340 00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:41,160 Speaker 1: had a son, he'd look like Trayvon. 341 00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:42,399 Speaker 5: Well. 342 00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:44,159 Speaker 1: I guess that would depend on who the father was, now, 343 00:19:44,160 --> 00:19:47,320 Speaker 1: wouldn't it. Larry Sinclair died just a few days ago, 344 00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:52,080 Speaker 1: of note, and we had members of Congress wearing hoodies 345 00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:54,800 Speaker 1: into Congress because hoodies are not bad. 346 00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:56,560 Speaker 2: Hoodies are good with. 347 00:19:56,480 --> 00:20:00,560 Speaker 1: The head with the top, as they say, activated you 348 00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:03,959 Speaker 1: ever noticed that when a crime is being committed by 349 00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:07,439 Speaker 1: a young person. They activate the hoodie. Even in the 350 00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:10,400 Speaker 1: summer heat, that hoodie is up so you can't see. 351 00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:14,719 Speaker 1: There's the reason it's up, And there was a reason. 352 00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:18,840 Speaker 1: In Trayvon's case, kid was nothing but trouble. And then 353 00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 1: you remember he had precious speaking on his behalf. You 354 00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:25,280 Speaker 1: remember her whole thing. Well, she was spashal, wasn't she. 355 00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:30,399 Speaker 1: I enjoyed that testimony. Yes, I did praise the Lord. 356 00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:34,240 Speaker 1: That was good, right there. Rachel, No, not Rachel. What 357 00:20:34,320 --> 00:20:38,480 Speaker 1: was her name, Rachel Gentail or something. I think that's it. 358 00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:42,520 Speaker 1: We'll come back to that while Ramon finds it. I'm 359 00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:44,159 Speaker 1: not really sure what to do with this story, so 360 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:47,640 Speaker 1: I just put it out there. Two people described as 361 00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:51,840 Speaker 1: friends took turns shooting each other while the other wore 362 00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:56,639 Speaker 1: a kevlar helmet inside a home in Spring. One of 363 00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:58,840 Speaker 1: the men has died after being shot in the head. 364 00:21:00,680 --> 00:21:04,439 Speaker 1: Precinct four deputies responded to a call for service in 365 00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:07,680 Speaker 1: the twenty three thy seven hundred block of Pennington Hills Drive. 366 00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:12,320 Speaker 1: Upon arrival, units found an adult male who sustained what 367 00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:16,560 Speaker 1: appeared to be a gunshot wound to the head. YEP, 368 00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:19,800 Speaker 1: that's a gunshot wound to the head all right. He 369 00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:24,600 Speaker 1: was transported to a hospital, but subsequent subsequently died from 370 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:30,000 Speaker 1: his injuries. The victim was identified as Aaron Prout, thirty four, 371 00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:35,919 Speaker 1: from the United Kingdom, who resided in Harris County. The defendant, 372 00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:39,040 Speaker 1: Sean O'Donnell, and Prout were said to be playing with 373 00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:43,760 Speaker 1: guns and drinking. O'Donnell is also accused of trying to 374 00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:47,359 Speaker 1: cover up the incident. He reportedly told the popo that 375 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:52,400 Speaker 1: Prout shot himself. However, a witness told officers that they 376 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:55,320 Speaker 1: have videos showing O'Donnell and Prout playing. 377 00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:55,520 Speaker 2: With the gun. 378 00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:06,240 Speaker 1: If you're willing to let somebody shoot you in the 379 00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:11,320 Speaker 1: head to see if the kevlar helmet works or not, 380 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:16,920 Speaker 1: I don't think you were going to discover the cure 381 00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:17,520 Speaker 1: for cancer. 382 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:21,080 Speaker 2: I really don't. I've never really. 383 00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:27,359 Speaker 1: Understood people whose Ledger, whose profits and lost Ledger runs 384 00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:30,240 Speaker 1: like this. I think I'm gonna try to build my 385 00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:35,760 Speaker 1: own bungee cord out of these rubber bands. I'm gonna 386 00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:39,600 Speaker 1: try it and jump, and if it works, I would 387 00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:41,080 Speaker 1: have created my own bungee cord. 388 00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:43,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, but if it fails, you die. 389 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:44,320 Speaker 4: I know. 390 00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:51,480 Speaker 1: Okay, So the upside is really nothing. The downside is 391 00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:57,280 Speaker 1: death or worse. You're a vegetable and you're able to 392 00:22:57,320 --> 00:23:00,920 Speaker 1: make that decision. That's a decision. It makes sense to you, 393 00:23:02,760 --> 00:23:05,440 Speaker 1: and there are a lot of people like that. I'm 394 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:08,359 Speaker 1: a thrill seeker. No, you're an idiot. You're an idiot, 395 00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:13,520 Speaker 1: and at some point the numbers show that a lot 396 00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:15,400 Speaker 1: of people like you are going to end up vegetables, 397 00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:19,760 Speaker 1: which is far worse than end and up dead from 398 00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:20,639 Speaker 1: an incident like that. 399 00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:23,320 Speaker 2: I'm gonna do this really stupid thing. 400 00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:25,040 Speaker 1: I mean, I guess in some way, I'm glad there 401 00:23:25,080 --> 00:23:28,080 Speaker 1: are people willing to do this because they provide entertainment 402 00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:30,920 Speaker 1: to the rest of us. But you have to wonder 403 00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:33,720 Speaker 1: about the thought process. You really have to wonder about 404 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:37,879 Speaker 1: the thought process. Rachel Gentel. Oh, yeah, let's hear from her. 405 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:38,639 Speaker 1: Let's hear from pressure. 406 00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:41,960 Speaker 14: Are you able to read that copy well enough that 407 00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:46,280 Speaker 14: you can tell us if it's in fact the same letter? 408 00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:48,800 Speaker 5: No? 409 00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:54,439 Speaker 14: Are you unable to read that at all? Can you 410 00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:56,360 Speaker 14: read any of the words on it? 411 00:23:58,040 --> 00:23:59,400 Speaker 2: I don't understand. 412 00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:05,720 Speaker 4: Curses on a recurs I asked somehow to man look 413 00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:08,160 Speaker 4: like he looked like a creepy ass. 414 00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:13,160 Speaker 11: Craf Okay, they make sure we got that creepy ass craft. 415 00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:19,680 Speaker 14: Yeah, okay, is that what you recall him saying? 416 00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:31,240 Speaker 10: There are dysfunctional young people incapable of speaking English in 417 00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:34,720 Speaker 10: a level that you would want to hire them being 418 00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:37,360 Speaker 10: churned out of our communities, and the very people who 419 00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:39,879 Speaker 10: should be doing something about it, or the people making 420 00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:42,000 Speaker 10: excuses for it and calling the rest of us raise. 421 00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:45,119 Speaker 2: It's a damn shame. It's a damn shame. It's a 422 00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:47,000 Speaker 2: damn shame. It's a damn shame. 423 00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:54,359 Speaker 1: I want you know much about Roman history? Did you 424 00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:59,480 Speaker 1: know there was a Roman emperor who never aged after 425 00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:13,760 Speaker 1: he turned eighteen?

We'll say fifty four. 427 00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:17,000 Speaker 2: We'll go low. 428 00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:22,840 Speaker 1: Shootings over the weekend in Chicago is a very very 429 00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:29,240 Speaker 1: dangerous place. Nobody wants to move into Chicago. The people 430 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:35,840 Speaker 1: are calling for the National Guard to come in, and 431 00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:38,480 Speaker 1: the mayor, Brandon Johnson is out there looking like a 432 00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:43,320 Speaker 1: complete clown speaking at a Labor Day event yesterday, doing 433 00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:44,760 Speaker 1: that thing like he's got a booger on the end 434 00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:47,360 Speaker 1: of his finger, pointing his finger, now flinging his hand. 435 00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:52,160 Speaker 15: We gonna keep Chicago. Fu Chicago. We're not gonna let 436 00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:58,359 Speaker 15: them come in and stop crying. And you just you know, 437 00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:03,919 Speaker 15: it's at least third world countries want to be better. 438 00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:09,199 Speaker 15: At least they want to be better but don't know 439 00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:14,320 Speaker 15: how to get there. But you've got Brandon Johnson. He's 440 00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:16,440 Speaker 15: worse to beatle Juice. I didn't think that was possible. 441 00:26:18,560 --> 00:26:21,000 Speaker 15: And you know Sheila Jackson, Lee's daughter was involved in 442 00:26:21,040 --> 00:26:23,760 Speaker 15: his campaign, her daughter's husband. I forget one or the other. 443 00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:28,480 Speaker 15: The point is these are very small circles. Rodney Ellis 444 00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:32,720 Speaker 15: hosted Kami Mumdani over the weekend, Who who will be 445 00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:37,359 Speaker 15: the next Mayor of New York? And Kami Mumdanni's mother 446 00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:40,600 Speaker 15: interestingly had ten. 447 00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:42,160 Speaker 2: I think it was ten. 448 00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:46,280 Speaker 1: I read of her movies financed by Katar or Cutter, 449 00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:49,360 Speaker 1: however you want to pronounce it. The same people who 450 00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:54,960 Speaker 1: financed the Muslim Brotherhood, and now he is receiving cash. 451 00:26:55,680 --> 00:27:00,080 Speaker 1: If you look at the people behind Kami Mumdani and 452 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:02,960 Speaker 1: and what he's doing and what they are setting out 453 00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:05,800 Speaker 1: to do, these are people playing with fire. 454 00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:07,760 Speaker 2: But this is what Rodney Ellis does. 455 00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:12,399 Speaker 1: He makes his little alliances with every dysfunctional runt of society. 456 00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:15,600 Speaker 1: See what the Democrats did a long time ago is 457 00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:19,879 Speaker 1: they said, you know, we can't win elections because whites 458 00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:23,080 Speaker 1: make up too much of the population and the traditional 459 00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:29,400 Speaker 1: American values. There's only one party, and so for us 460 00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:33,159 Speaker 1: to win, we have to cobble together a coalition. So 461 00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:36,920 Speaker 1: we've got to keep the blacks separated out. And it's 462 00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:40,399 Speaker 1: really sad. It's really sad what they do to do that. 463 00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:44,240 Speaker 1: And it's really sad how many blacks are under this 464 00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:48,960 Speaker 1: thrall and don't know it. And it's a dead end street. 465 00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:52,760 Speaker 1: It's sad. It's sad. I can't tell you how many 466 00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:56,040 Speaker 1: blacks have told me about a relative of theirs and 467 00:27:56,119 --> 00:27:57,840 Speaker 1: what they have to hear when they go, you know, 468 00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:01,320 Speaker 1: for the weekend and some college or high school kid 469 00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:06,400 Speaker 1: or preacher or government employee will lecture them on how 470 00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:10,359 Speaker 1: can you vote Republican? Oh, it's horrible. You got standing 471 00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:12,119 Speaker 1: with demand, and you're standing with demand. You got to 472 00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:15,320 Speaker 1: stand with the calls. Don't be a sellout and you go, 473 00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:18,560 Speaker 1: you know, sixty one years since the Food Stamp Act, 474 00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:23,400 Speaker 1: sixty one years since Johnson said I'll have the n words. 475 00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:26,160 Speaker 1: Voting Democrat for two hundred years. And you know what, 476 00:28:26,200 --> 00:28:30,520 Speaker 1: maybe he was right. Maybe that's all it took. Maybe 477 00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:32,639 Speaker 1: it's the same reason you don't feed the animals at 478 00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:37,080 Speaker 1: the zoo, they'll grow dependent on him. Maybe the sucker 479 00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:43,600 Speaker 1: succor at the government teep has gone on so long 480 00:28:44,120 --> 00:28:49,200 Speaker 1: that the values of private enterprise, the values of dignity 481 00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:52,160 Speaker 1: and pride and independence are gone in too many people, 482 00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:56,440 Speaker 1: not everyone, but in too many. And now you've created 483 00:28:56,440 --> 00:28:59,360 Speaker 1: a beast you can't get off of. So the Democrats 484 00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:02,440 Speaker 1: couldn't win with that, though. That wasn't enough. You could 485 00:29:02,440 --> 00:29:05,080 Speaker 1: win a seat here, in a seat there. But the 486 00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:08,000 Speaker 1: Democrats then had to go get some more groups. So 487 00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:11,520 Speaker 1: they tried with Hispanics, but they've largely failed, and that 488 00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:14,280 Speaker 1: has grown more and more to be the case. And 489 00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:17,840 Speaker 1: that's why they needed new Hispanics that they could control 490 00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:21,600 Speaker 1: from socialist countries. And they would bring them in and 491 00:29:21,640 --> 00:29:24,000 Speaker 1: they would stash them and they would have them both. 492 00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:28,600 Speaker 1: But now they're being kicked out. That's a little hard. 493 00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:31,360 Speaker 1: So what else do you do? How do you get 494 00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:35,800 Speaker 1: white people? Well, you tell the gays that everybody else 495 00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:38,440 Speaker 1: hates them, all right, So they picked off some whites, 496 00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:40,320 Speaker 1: some gay whites there all right? 497 00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:44,600 Speaker 2: Got that you got to go after the youth. This 498 00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:47,360 Speaker 2: is a long play. It's a religion. 499 00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:52,120 Speaker 1: When you understand it's a religion, you understand, you understand 500 00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:57,920 Speaker 1: exactly what's happening. And when that makes sense, when that 501 00:29:58,160 --> 00:30:04,720 Speaker 1: goes into effect, everything else seems to make sense. Everything 502 00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:07,480 Speaker 1: else seems to make sense. So you got the mayor 503 00:30:07,520 --> 00:30:11,120 Speaker 1: of Chicago looking like a clown. You've got the governor 504 00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:16,560 Speaker 1: of Illinois, JB. Pritzker looking like a clown because, by golly, 505 00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:19,400 Speaker 1: this is clip number two from chest Prep. By golly, 506 00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:22,000 Speaker 1: we're not going to let the National Guard come in 507 00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:24,520 Speaker 1: and do what they have done in Washington. 508 00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:24,360 Speaker 9: D C. 509 00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:29,760 Speaker 1: Which is make it a place that people can walk 510 00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:36,680 Speaker 1: around in safety and security and comfort and peace. Even 511 00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:40,320 Speaker 1: DC Mayor Muriel Bowser, who has been a sharp Trump critic, 512 00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:44,440 Speaker 1: admits that the Trump surge has reduced crime in the district. 513 00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:48,840 Speaker 1: And the Democrats respond by attacking Muriel Bowser. 514 00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:54,640 Speaker 6: And we greatly appreciate the surge of officers that enhance 515 00:30:55,720 --> 00:31:00,959 Speaker 6: what MPD has been able to do in this city. 516 00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:08,880 Speaker 6: The most significant thing that we are highlighting today is 517 00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:12,920 Speaker 6: the area of crime that was most troubling for us 518 00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:14,400 Speaker 6: in twenty twenty three. 519 00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:15,440 Speaker 2: Now we have. 520 00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:20,040 Speaker 6: Driven it down over the last years, but I'm gonna 521 00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:22,040 Speaker 6: get my glasses so i can make sure I can 522 00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:28,120 Speaker 6: see it correctly. But for carjackings, the difference between this period, 523 00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:32,160 Speaker 6: this twenty day period of this federal surge and last 524 00:31:32,240 --> 00:31:40,800 Speaker 6: year represents a eighty seven percent reduction in carjackings in Washington, DC. 525 00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:44,760 Speaker 6: We know that when krjackings go down, when the use 526 00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:47,800 Speaker 6: of gun goes down, when homicide or robbery go down, 527 00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:54,320 Speaker 6: neighborhoods feel safer and are safer. So this surge has 528 00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:56,880 Speaker 6: been important to us for that reason. 529 00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:01,360 Speaker 2: And there you have it. 530 00:32:02,360 --> 00:32:05,680 Speaker 1: The thing about it is, you can convince people to 531 00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:09,080 Speaker 1: hate other people. But in all sorts of psychological studies 532 00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:11,600 Speaker 1: on it, you can convince people to hate other people, 533 00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:15,920 Speaker 1: and when you can control their schooling and their church 534 00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:21,080 Speaker 1: and their politics, everything around them becomes an echo chamber. 535 00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:26,680 Speaker 1: White he's bad, the poposi is bad, learning is bad. 536 00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:29,480 Speaker 2: All these things is bad, and we as victims. 537 00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:34,280 Speaker 1: But the problem with that is that when people get 538 00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:40,200 Speaker 1: a taste of what is better, they want Except for 539 00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:43,240 Speaker 1: those who figured out how to win in that bad system, 540 00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:49,160 Speaker 1: they don't want it. One of the laws passed during 541 00:32:49,200 --> 00:32:54,520 Speaker 1: this legislative session that went into effect yesterday. The laws 542 00:32:54,560 --> 00:32:57,080 Speaker 1: go into effect almost all of them, September first. Sometimes 543 00:32:57,120 --> 00:32:59,479 Speaker 1: you'll have someone go into a fact of genderary one 544 00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:02,440 Speaker 1: of them to the Ten Commandments. In our schools. 545 00:33:02,640 --> 00:33:07,920 Speaker 2: On Roe is in the crossfires. We'll discuss that coming up.
