We was tied up and beat like 444 00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:23,639 Speaker 11: but but not like. But to be honest with you, 445 00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:27,720 Speaker 11: my family, like we we thought my mama had five boys, 446 00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:30,520 Speaker 11: so it was hard to discipline five boys on her own. 447 00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:32,560 Speaker 9: Were you youngest, oldest, middle, I'm. 448 00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:34,200 Speaker 11: Right after the oldest, you know what I mean. So 449 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,040 Speaker 11: when she laid the belt down, and it was necessary 450 00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:40,040 Speaker 11: because all of us are living today. None of us 451 00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:42,439 Speaker 11: are really like that bad of people. But and she 452 00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:45,320 Speaker 11: did the best. But when you whipping like that, you 453 00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:48,080 Speaker 11: have to be careful about how you do it. Now, 454 00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:50,520 Speaker 11: it's cool to whoop your child, you know, and discipline them, 455 00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:52,280 Speaker 11: but if you're gonna beat the ship out of them, 456 00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:54,880 Speaker 11: then you might as well get ready for something in 457 00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:57,200 Speaker 11: them that you don't know about. You know what I mean, 458 00:20:57,240 --> 00:21:00,720 Speaker 11: Because now that I'm older, she's probably surprised that when 459 00:21:00,720 --> 00:21:01,320 Speaker 11: she hears this. 460 00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:03,000 Speaker 1: You you know what I'm saying, How does that affect you 461 00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:03,680 Speaker 1: with your kids? 462 00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:05,200 Speaker 4: How you discipline your kids? 463 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:08,479 Speaker 11: I see, I've recognized it, and I'm not gonna do 464 00:21:08,520 --> 00:21:11,000 Speaker 11: it to that degree.

Fucked absolutely and I think you 1038 00:46:39,239 --> 00:46:43,040 Speaker 5: know it was her tenacity, and now I was I 1039 00:46:43,520 --> 00:46:46,680 Speaker 5: saw it, but I just didn't see how, you know, 1040 00:46:47,400 --> 00:46:49,360 Speaker 5: we could just keep pushing it, pushing and pushing it 1041 00:46:49,480 --> 00:46:52,360 Speaker 5: like that, and it ship was caustly, you know what 1042 00:46:52,360 --> 00:46:54,439 Speaker 5: I'm saying. We were probably like three and a half 1043 00:46:54,560 --> 00:46:57,759 Speaker 5: million in and and every time we go back to 1044 00:46:57,840 --> 00:47:02,359 Speaker 5: court it's another some figure. And then the last time 1045 00:47:02,480 --> 00:47:07,000 Speaker 5: we had lost the case, you know, for whatever reason, 1046 00:47:07,680 --> 00:47:11,160 Speaker 5: and then the other then he had the nerve to 1047 00:47:11,200 --> 00:47:13,560 Speaker 5: send me his bill. I said, I know you fucking last. 1048 00:47:14,600 --> 00:47:18,560 Speaker 5: And then the law changed, the law change that said 1049 00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:24,120 Speaker 5: that the First Amendment could no longer protect uh, you 1050 00:47:24,200 --> 00:47:27,719 Speaker 5: know when it comes to to like to likeness, uh 1051 00:47:27,920 --> 00:47:29,600 Speaker 5: and so on. I think it was some kind of 1052 00:47:29,719 --> 00:47:32,360 Speaker 5: Jack Daniels case where it was a little puppy, a 1053 00:47:32,400 --> 00:47:36,359 Speaker 5: little a little like a little dog that a little 1054 00:47:36,440 --> 00:47:39,400 Speaker 5: Jack Russell dogg that I think it had something similar 1055 00:47:39,480 --> 00:47:42,040 Speaker 5: to Jack Daniels own it. And they thought that they 1056 00:47:42,080 --> 00:47:44,719 Speaker 5: could do that, and Jack Daniels the whiskey was like, no, 1057 00:47:44,960 --> 00:47:47,240 Speaker 5: y'all can't do that. It's like, now it's a parody, 1058 00:47:47,280 --> 00:47:49,360 Speaker 5: and we protected out of the First Amendment, and the 1059 00:47:49,440 --> 00:47:53,000 Speaker 5: Supreme Court rule, no you're not. And that's what got 1060 00:47:53,120 --> 00:47:55,560 Speaker 5: us back in court to judge said, Okay, well this 1061 00:47:55,680 --> 00:47:57,360 Speaker 5: law change, so we had to go and we had 1062 00:47:57,400 --> 00:48:01,399 Speaker 5: to revisit this all over again, and thank and thank god, 1063 00:48:01,560 --> 00:48:04,800 Speaker 5: you know, we did.

Although I 1069 00:48:17,960 --> 00:48:20,959 Speaker 5: understand the other side position. You know, this guy he's 1070 00:48:21,880 --> 00:48:26,040 Speaker 5: you know, he's a billionaire, right and and I'm sure 1071 00:48:26,160 --> 00:48:28,759 Speaker 5: he not in that motherfucker looking every day and who 1072 00:48:28,920 --> 00:48:29,840 Speaker 5: does and trying. 1073 00:48:29,640 --> 00:48:29,960 Speaker 1: To say what. 1074 00:48:30,320 --> 00:48:32,320 Speaker 5: So I'm sure some people who he had put in 1075 00:48:32,480 --> 00:48:36,200 Speaker 5: position who probably didn't want to do some work and 1076 00:48:36,440 --> 00:48:38,279 Speaker 5: just say, you know what, I could just take this 1077 00:48:38,480 --> 00:48:40,759 Speaker 5: and do this and then that that he won't know, 1078 00:48:41,360 --> 00:48:44,680 Speaker 5: you know, and he probably didn't until and then. 1079 00:48:44,760 --> 00:48:47,480 Speaker 2: But now, Hey, the crazy thing is they probably would 1080 00:48:47,480 --> 00:48:49,719 Speaker 2: have offered you guys a deal.
