But I'm also very 13 00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:32,920 Speaker 1: proud that my wife was white. 14 00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:36,680 Speaker 2: The practice club bitches. All right, Henny, please tell me 15 00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:38,240 Speaker 2: why was I your. 16 00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:41,800 Speaker 1: Donkey of the day. Donkey today for Thursday, September eleventh 17 00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:44,599 Speaker 1: goes to the gun lobbyist, the gun industry, and all 18 00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:48,280 Speaker 1: the politicians who refuse to pass common sense gun reformed 19 00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:51,640 Speaker 1: in this country. Today is nine to eleven, the twenty 20 00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:54,720 Speaker 1: four anniversary of nine to eleven, and over two decades later, 21 00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:57,720 Speaker 1: America is still in a state of emergency. Okay, we 22 00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:01,440 Speaker 1: are still having constant terrorist attack, but the attacks are 23 00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:03,040 Speaker 1: more frequently coming from within. 24 00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:03,560 Speaker 2: Okay. 25 00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:06,120 Speaker 1: It's like we keep repeating ourselves, and things seem to 26 00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:09,520 Speaker 1: be getting progressively worse. For example, yesterday three teenagers are 27 00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:12,600 Speaker 1: in critical condition after a mass shooting out of Colorado 28 00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:14,840 Speaker 1: High School. Now, I was born in nineteen hundred and 29 00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:17,520 Speaker 1: seventy eight, so I'm old enough to remember the mass 30 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:20,679 Speaker 1: shooting that happened in Denver back in twenty. 31 00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:21,680 Speaker 2: Twelve at the Aurora Theater. 32 00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:24,240 Speaker 1: That's when James Holmes through tear gas in the theater 33 00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:28,680 Speaker 1: and started shooting in the audience. Twelve people killed, seventy injured, 34 00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:31,920 Speaker 1: fifty eight of them due to gunfire. You would think 35 00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:34,320 Speaker 1: a situation like that would lead to some type of 36 00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 1: massive change in America, but no. I did some research, 37 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:41,520 Speaker 1: and by research, I googled, and the Colorado Department of 38 00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:44,120 Speaker 1: Public Health and Environment website said in a ten year 39 00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:48,559 Speaker 1: period from twenty fourteen to twenty twenty three, Colorado experienced 40 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 1: seventy seven mass shootings in which one hundred and three 41 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:55,000 Speaker 1: people were killed and two hundred and ninety nine were injured. 42 00:01:55,680 --> 00:02:00,520 Speaker 1: Guns Okay, I was on mass shooting Tracker dot com. Yes, 43 00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 1: that is an actual website, Mass shooting Tracker dot com. 44 00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 1: And in twenty twenty five, this year, it has been 45 00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:11,440 Speaker 1: three hundred and fifty six mass shootings in America, six 46 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:15,520 Speaker 1: eight hundred and eighty eight mass shootings since January first, 47 00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:20,160 Speaker 1: twenty thirteen, and zero days I repeat zero since our 48 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:22,200 Speaker 1: last mass shooting. 49 00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:25,119 Speaker 2: Zero days. Now I am two a all day. 50 00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:27,200 Speaker 1: I believe in the right to bear arms, but I 51 00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 1: also believe in common sense gun control. But I thought 52 00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 1: to myself yesterday, the term gun control is an oxymoron. 53 00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:34,440 Speaker 2: Okay. 54 00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:36,480 Speaker 1: When you think of a gun, you have to know 55 00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:39,440 Speaker 1: the gun industry, right. You got to think about the 56 00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:40,960 Speaker 1: gun industry when you think of guns, and that's one 57 00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:44,000 Speaker 1: of the most powerful industries in America. It's protected by 58 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:47,680 Speaker 1: the constitution. The gun lobbyists, especially the NRA, they have 59 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 1: significant influence over politicians, and guns are worshiped like religion 60 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:55,440 Speaker 1: in this country. So no matter what the tragedy, Okay, 61 00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,280 Speaker 1: no matter how much blood is filled, no control will 62 00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:01,399 Speaker 1: ever be placed on guns as long as those campaign 63 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:03,440 Speaker 1: contributions keep coming in, keep coming in. 64 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:04,079 Speaker 2: Okay. 65 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:07,520 Speaker 1: And when we use the word control, right, gun control, 66 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:10,520 Speaker 1: control is something this country will never have. 67 00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 2: Okay. 68 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:15,079 Speaker 1: Gun control will never happen in this country, especially when 69 00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:17,400 Speaker 1: lobbyists the NRA are writing the rules. 70 00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:19,600 Speaker 2: Okay, you put gun and control together. 71 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:22,560 Speaker 1: It sounds good on paper, but in reality, it's like 72 00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 1: saying organized chaos are honest politicians. Okay, These politicians won't 73 00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:30,800 Speaker 1: even be honest with you on why they can't even 74 00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:34,280 Speaker 1: create legislation to ever get to a point where we 75 00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 1: have common sense gun reform. But it's never happening in America. People, No, no, no. 76 00:03:39,800 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 1: It is a complete oxymoron to say gun control, okay, 77 00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 1: gun control in America, because America doesn't control guns. Guns 78 00:03:48,680 --> 00:03:51,560 Speaker 1: control America, all right. We treat the Second Amendment like 79 00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 1: it's one of the Ten commandments, Okay. In America, historically, 80 00:03:55,360 --> 00:04:00,600 Speaker 1: guns have had more rights than women, immigrants, the LGBTQ. 81 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 2: And black people combined. Okay. 82 00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:05,480 Speaker 1: And the reason we need gun control is because people 83 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:09,000 Speaker 1: clearly have no self control. I agree with anyone who 84 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:13,160 Speaker 1: says guns don't kill people. People with guns kill people. 85 00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 1: And since those people don't have any discipline or any 86 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 1: self control, that's why. 87 00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:22,599 Speaker 2: We need gun control. Okay, common sense gun reform that can. 88 00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:24,680 Speaker 1: Protect us all and every time there is a mass 89 00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 1: shooting or a tragic shooting, we should absolutely blame the 90 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:31,120 Speaker 1: gun lobbyists in the gun industry. I was reading a 91 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:34,200 Speaker 1: great article that was published last year. It was on 92 00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:37,200 Speaker 1: a website called every Town for gun safety, and the 93 00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:40,560 Speaker 1: headline was how the gun lobbyists and the gun industry 94 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:44,159 Speaker 1: fan the flames of excremist ideology, and it spoke to 95 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 1: how in recent years, political excremism and excremists violence in 96 00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:52,360 Speaker 1: the United States have risen at an alarming rate. Okay, 97 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:55,280 Speaker 1: many excremacy guns is the most effective tools for their 98 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:58,640 Speaker 1: violent aims, and lacks gun laws in the US often 99 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:02,320 Speaker 1: able these excremists to act firearms. We saw that play 100 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:05,279 Speaker 1: out yesterday when we witnessed the murder of right wing 101 00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:08,920 Speaker 1: political activists Charlie Kirk. Okay, he was shot and killed 102 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:13,839 Speaker 1: while speaking at Utah Valley University. Of course, immediately people 103 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:17,520 Speaker 1: start politicizing his death. The right is blaming the left, 104 00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:20,040 Speaker 1: saying their rhetoric about the right is what led to this. 105 00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:23,120 Speaker 1: The right is blaming the left, saying their rhetoric is 106 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 1: what led to this. And we don't even have the 107 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 1: person who did this in custody. We don't know what 108 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 1: this person's issue. 109 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:30,680 Speaker 2: Is or was with Charlie Kirk. 110 00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:34,159 Speaker 1: Everybody is just assuming this is political violence, and it 111 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 1: quite possibly is. 112 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:36,960 Speaker 2: As a matter of fact, I'm sure it is, But 113 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:39,520 Speaker 2: you know what else, it is? Gun violence? 114 00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 1: Okay, These nutjobs who don't believe in freedom of speech, 115 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:45,040 Speaker 1: clearly believe in their right to bear arms, and because 116 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:47,480 Speaker 1: of the lax gun laws in America, they are able 117 00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:50,560 Speaker 1: to get firearms to carry out these violent acts. 118 00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:51,160 Speaker 2: And now let the. 119 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 1: Record show what I heard, what happened to Charlie Kirk yesterday. 120 00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:58,000 Speaker 1: I immediately felt fear. Okay, I was afraid. I'm a 121 00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 1: black man in America. I think about getting shot every day. 122 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 1: But guess what every American should think about getting shot 123 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:06,599 Speaker 1: every day when you are out and about in a 124 00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:10,760 Speaker 1: public place, simply because it's been zero days since the 125 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:13,960 Speaker 1: mass shooting happened in this country. But my personal fear 126 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:17,480 Speaker 1: was also because I'm a media personality. I don't want 127 00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 1: to live in a country where media personalities are being 128 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:22,920 Speaker 1: shot and killed for their opinions are what they believe. 129 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:25,400 Speaker 1: But I also know that as much as we like 130 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:27,839 Speaker 1: to point to the First Amendment and say we all 131 00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:30,839 Speaker 1: have freedom of speech, we are not free from the 132 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:34,680 Speaker 1: consequences of said speech. That's why mindfulness of what we 133 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 1: say is very important, because there is a cost to 134 00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:40,160 Speaker 1: everything that comes out of our mouth, and unfortunately we 135 00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:43,000 Speaker 1: don't get to set the price. And I must say, 136 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:46,119 Speaker 1: Charlie Kirk understood the price of our freedoms more than most. 137 00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 1: I was watching this clip of him go viral yesterday. 138 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 1: Can we play it. 139 00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:51,800 Speaker 3: You will never live in a society when you have 140 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:53,960 Speaker 3: an armed citizenry and you won't have a single gun death. 141 00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:58,240 Speaker 3: That is nonsense. It's drivele But I think it's I 142 00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:01,120 Speaker 3: think it's worth it. I think it's worth to have 143 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:04,840 Speaker 3: a cost of unfortunately some gun deaths every single year 144 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:07,880 Speaker 3: so that we can have the Second Amendment to protect 145 00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:11,480 Speaker 3: our other God given rights. That is a prudent deal. 146 00:07:11,920 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 2: It is rational. 147 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 1: Now, He's absolutely right because of the way the Constitution 148 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:18,760 Speaker 1: is structed. Because we have no common sense gun laws 149 00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 1: in this country, these high gun deaths will happen every 150 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:22,200 Speaker 1: single year. 151 00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:25,160 Speaker 2: It is a consequence of the right to bear arms. 152 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 1: Just like we don't get to determine the consequences of 153 00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 1: our free speech, we also don't get to determine the 154 00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 1: consequences of everyone having the right to bear arms in 155 00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:37,720 Speaker 1: this country. I just wonder when people say things like 156 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 1: Charlie Kirk say, play a clip again. 157 00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 3: Right, you will never live in a society when eve 158 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:45,720 Speaker 3: an armed citizenry and you won't have a single gun death. 159 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:50,000 Speaker 3: That is nonsense. It's drivele but I think it's I 160 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 3: think it's worth it. I think it's worth to have 161 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:56,560 Speaker 3: a cost of unfortunately some gun deaths every single year 162 00:07:56,800 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 3: so that we can have the Second Amendment to protect 163 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:03,200 Speaker 3: our other God given rights. That is a prudent deal. 164 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:04,560 Speaker 3: It is rational. 165 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 1: I just wonder when people say things like that, do 166 00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:13,000 Speaker 1: they think they may be one of those deaths? Is 167 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:15,840 Speaker 1: it worth it when one of those casualties is you 168 00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:19,680 Speaker 1: are someone you love to protect the rights given to 169 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:24,640 Speaker 1: us by the Constitution. If they believe they too could 170 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:27,000 Speaker 1: be one of those deaths and they're cool with that, 171 00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 1: I respect it. So I guess you honor Charlie Kirk 172 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:35,560 Speaker 1: by buying more guns based on that logic.
