1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,519 Speaker 1: Lou Penrose sitting in for John Cobelt this week. 2 00:00:02,960 --> 00:00:06,640 Speaker 2: More news on the shooter from yesterday, good news and 3 00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:11,000 Speaker 2: not so good news. The good news is the twenty 4 00:00:11,080 --> 00:00:15,040 Speaker 2: individuals that were injured are all set to recover. That 5 00:00:15,080 --> 00:00:18,639 Speaker 2: includes the fifteen of those twenty who are children and 6 00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:22,200 Speaker 2: yesterday were in critical condition, children as young as six. 7 00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:25,959 Speaker 2: But the reports at of Minneapolis and the area hospitals 8 00:00:26,040 --> 00:00:27,040 Speaker 2: is everyone. 9 00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:31,040 Speaker 1: Will recover but will be hurting. Nothing brings back the 10 00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:33,640 Speaker 1: death of the eight year old and the ten year old. 11 00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:36,559 Speaker 2: The bad news is we have learned more about the 12 00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:40,360 Speaker 2: shooter and none of it helps us understand a motive. 13 00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:46,680 Speaker 2: ABC News Crime and Terrorism analyst Brad Garrett joins us. Brad, 14 00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:49,839 Speaker 2: thanks for spending some time with us. The FBI is 15 00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:53,840 Speaker 2: digging through what appears to be like pages and pages 16 00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:58,200 Speaker 2: of notes and descriptions and drawings and illustrations. 17 00:00:58,320 --> 00:00:59,320 Speaker 1: What do we have so far? 18 00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:05,520 Speaker 3: So you have to look at mass shooters that you 19 00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:08,759 Speaker 3: sort of fit this particular shooter's profile, and I'll tell 20 00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:11,640 Speaker 3: you most of the things I've read about him are 21 00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:18,160 Speaker 3: reviewed fit many other mass shootings that I've looked at, investigated, 22 00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:23,119 Speaker 3: et cetera. And it is an obsession, and obsessions drive 23 00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:26,960 Speaker 3: people into great detail. In this case, it's all dark. 24 00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:30,760 Speaker 3: It's anger, it's rage, it's calling you know, every sort 25 00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:34,600 Speaker 3: of group that you can think of, anti Black, anti Muslim. 26 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:38,120 Speaker 3: It goes on and on his sort of level of 27 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:43,720 Speaker 3: hatred of so many individuals. But there's for him, there's 28 00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:48,320 Speaker 3: all a purpose in doing that, because he's trying to 29 00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 3: come up with enough energy and enough I guess gumption 30 00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:57,040 Speaker 3: to go and commit what he did yesterday. And something 31 00:01:57,080 --> 00:01:59,280 Speaker 3: triggered him. I don't know what it was, maybe school 32 00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:03,000 Speaker 3: starting because he was a student at that school and 33 00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 3: his mother used to work there. He would know, you 34 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:08,760 Speaker 3: know approximately and it may well be published when the 35 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:14,520 Speaker 3: kids would be in the church itself, and that's when 36 00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:18,880 Speaker 3: he hit it. Apparently he tried to get in and 37 00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 3: they had locked the doors. So this conversation would even 38 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:25,200 Speaker 3: be worse that you and I are having today if 39 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:27,880 Speaker 3: in fact he did all that shooting, if he had 40 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 3: done it inside the church. So I mean, this is 41 00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:36,680 Speaker 3: what you've got with him, And he was on a mission. 42 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:39,880 Speaker 3: He knew he was going to die. Apparently he didn't 43 00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:42,160 Speaker 3: care about that. He just wanted to go out with 44 00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:45,600 Speaker 3: and so to speak at a blaze of glory and 45 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:51,640 Speaker 3: then have his YouTube stuff published after he's dead again 46 00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:54,239 Speaker 3: just sort of you know, it's a power thing, right, 47 00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:57,519 Speaker 3: we're talking about him today who've never even heard of 48 00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:01,280 Speaker 3: him forty eight hours ago. So that's what a lot 49 00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 3: of this is. It's fame when it boils right down 50 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:04,240 Speaker 3: to it. 51 00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:08,799 Speaker 2: So when he mentioned siblings in some of his statements, 52 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:13,520 Speaker 2: some of his writings, so there were siblings, we haven't 53 00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 2: heard from them. From what I understand, the Minneapolis p 54 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:20,040 Speaker 2: D have not been able successful, not been successful in 55 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:24,200 Speaker 2: speaking with the mother. Certainly somebody in the family would 56 00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 2: have noticed that he was a little off, and somebody 57 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 2: had to know he was assembling weapons or thought about weapons, 58 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:35,280 Speaker 2: or talked about weapons. I mean, there had to be 59 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 2: somebody in his midst that was able to see in 60 00:03:39,160 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 2: his closet figuratively and literally. 61 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 3: Well, you would think we don't know enough about his 62 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:51,320 Speaker 3: living circumstances. The police and the FBI got four search warrants, 63 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:55,520 Speaker 3: one obviously for the church in the school, and then 64 00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 3: three others for three different residences. So it's unclear to 65 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:02,040 Speaker 3: me about where he lived and where he was living 66 00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:05,880 Speaker 3: at the time of the shooting. And so he could 67 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:08,560 Speaker 3: have been in a situation where he wasn't around his 68 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 3: immediate family, or he had a safe place where he hit. 69 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:16,040 Speaker 3: All this stuff, you can't underestimate. The fact was that 70 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:22,159 Speaker 3: the vast majority of mass shooters are going to isolation, 71 00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:26,000 Speaker 3: and they're very sort of singular as to what they 72 00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:28,560 Speaker 3: do and how they do it. So my guess is 73 00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:32,680 Speaker 3: the writings the YouTube were all done alone in some location. 74 00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:38,200 Speaker 3: And to your point, this stuff is, he's so dark 75 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:41,240 Speaker 3: and so bizarre, how could you not notice, at least 76 00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 3: behaviorally a change in him? So we'll see what that goes, right. 77 00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:50,200 Speaker 2: That's always the curiosity to me is that how do 78 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:54,240 Speaker 2: you contain that, like that maniacal laughter that we heard 79 00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 2: on the YouTube video and this level of agitation, how 80 00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 2: do you contain that for an eight hour shift at 81 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:02,560 Speaker 2: work he had to have coworkers. I mean, there's there's 82 00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:05,720 Speaker 2: got to be somebody from the outside of the bubble 83 00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:08,600 Speaker 2: of his dark bubble that was able to see and 84 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 2: could speak to Yeah, he had he. 85 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:12,360 Speaker 1: Mumbled about this, he's got. 86 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:17,080 Speaker 2: I mean, nobody could exist with a car paying car insurance, gasoline, 87 00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:19,040 Speaker 2: have the money to buy these weapons and be that 88 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:20,240 Speaker 2: isolated from the world. 89 00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 3: Well, you'd be surprised. I mean, there's a a term 90 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 3: called a mask of sanity where and I can tell 91 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:31,839 Speaker 3: you I worked flial offender cases where I'll give you 92 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:36,920 Speaker 3: one example in reference to a serial rapist who had 93 00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:40,240 Speaker 3: a full time job, three kids, a wife, he worked 94 00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 3: at night. He would go out at night before he 95 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:46,120 Speaker 3: went to work, break into houses, violently rape women, go 96 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 3: to work, come back home, make breakfast for his kids, kiss, 97 00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:52,200 Speaker 3: you know, send his kiss on to school, and his 98 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:55,440 Speaker 3: wife on the work, and just be normal during the day. Wow, 99 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:58,320 Speaker 3: they're able to have parallel personalities. Now, I don't know, 100 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 3: this kid may have some version of that. So if 101 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:04,160 Speaker 3: you have the ability to go do what he did yesterday, 102 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:09,160 Speaker 3: you know, your ability, if you're still functioning, is that 103 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:12,560 Speaker 3: you can compartmentalize everything. And he's just in his mind, 104 00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:16,239 Speaker 3: he had justified what he did yesterday that it needed 105 00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 3: to be done, he wanted to do it, and people 106 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:22,360 Speaker 3: need to be punished because they have punished him at least, 107 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 3: you know, obviously in his mind of course. But that's 108 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:26,400 Speaker 3: what drives us. 109 00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 2: Brad Garrett, ABC News Crime and Terrorism ataalist, Thanks so much, 110 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:32,400 Speaker 2: appreciate your time today bringing us up to speed. On 111 00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 2: the latest that we know about this individual. We do 112 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 2: know now that he did, in fact attend that Catholic school. 113 00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:43,480 Speaker 2: We learned yesterday that his mother worked at least for 114 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:46,919 Speaker 2: some time in some capacity at the school, so he 115 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:51,640 Speaker 2: knew about the school and knew presumably the mass hours, 116 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:55,479 Speaker 2: where the children sat, which window to go to to 117 00:06:55,560 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 2: maximize the carnage on the children. The Mini Appolis Police 118 00:07:00,640 --> 00:07:04,680 Speaker 2: Department says they have not been successful in speaking with 119 00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:08,560 Speaker 2: the mother, and they aren't commenting on whether they are 120 00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:10,240 Speaker 2: able to make contact with the father. 121 00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:17,360 Speaker 1: I presume, I mean what, I'm not convinced the mother 122 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:22,160 Speaker 1: didn't know more than she's sharing. Look, somebody had to know. 123 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:27,640 Speaker 2: I appreciate Brad's analysis that I'd be surprised. I just 124 00:07:28,440 --> 00:07:32,640 Speaker 2: it would be astounding to me if nobody knew except 125 00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:33,240 Speaker 2: the guy that. 126 00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:34,560 Speaker 1: Sold him the guns. 127 00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:37,160 Speaker 2: And I understand the guns were purchased legally and recently, 128 00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:44,480 Speaker 2: so something snapped. But nevertheless, the good news today is 129 00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 2: that the twenty victims that survived the shooting are all 130 00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 2: going to be okay. 131 00:07:51,880 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 1: But nevertheless hurting. 132 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:56,760 Speaker 2: Lou Penrose if John Cobalt on the John Cobalt Show 133 00:07:56,880 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 2: on kf I Am six forty Live everywhere on the 134 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:00,600 Speaker 2: iHeart Radio apps. 135 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:05,560 Speaker 4: You're listening to John Cobelt on demand from KFI AM 136 00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:06,400 Speaker 4: six forty. 137 00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 1: Lou Penrose sitting in for Coblt. 138 00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:14,000 Speaker 2: This week, we know a little bit more about the 139 00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:15,720 Speaker 2: writings of the shooter. 140 00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 1: From yesterday, and it gets more and more bizarre. 141 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:22,200 Speaker 2: According to The New York Post, he wrote, I only 142 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:25,560 Speaker 2: keep the long hair because it's pretty much my last 143 00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 2: shred of being trends. I'm tired of being trans I 144 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:35,200 Speaker 2: wish I never brainwashed myself, he wrote. And that was 145 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:39,240 Speaker 2: not even in English. That was in some foreign tongue 146 00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:44,120 Speaker 2: and translated. And he wrote that in some of the manuals. 147 00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 2: But I saw illustration, various illustrations inside his diary, if. 148 00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:54,280 Speaker 1: You will, He literally drew a picture of the church. 149 00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:58,560 Speaker 2: With the pews and the fountain and the altar, so 150 00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:02,480 Speaker 2: he had everything planned out. Oh and they're still arguing 151 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:07,520 Speaker 2: about the confusion over the name Robert and Robin. We 152 00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:11,600 Speaker 2: learned yesterday that Robert at seventeen, said he didn't want 153 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:14,720 Speaker 2: to be Robert anymore. He wanted to be Robin because 154 00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 2: he identified as a woman. But he's a miner at seventeen, 155 00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:20,839 Speaker 2: so he asked his mother to take him to court 156 00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:24,920 Speaker 2: and petition a name change for him, and the court, 157 00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:28,679 Speaker 2: at the request of the parent, granted the miner's name 158 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,480 Speaker 2: change at seventeen. He could have done it when he 159 00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:33,160 Speaker 2: was eighteen, but it was so important he had to 160 00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:34,280 Speaker 2: do it when he was seventeen. 161 00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:37,760 Speaker 1: I find that very curious. Why not just wait? In fact, 162 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:40,480 Speaker 1: the name change wasn't approved. 163 00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:43,080 Speaker 2: Until twenty twenty, which means he would have been a 164 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:47,240 Speaker 2: year older or closer to a year older, which means 165 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:51,680 Speaker 2: he could have done it himself, and recently writing that 166 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 2: he regrets. 167 00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:55,360 Speaker 1: He said he's tired of being trans. 168 00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:59,319 Speaker 2: And the folks at CNN, they don't think the trans 169 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:02,640 Speaker 2: thing is an issue. They think we're making a mistake 170 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 2: by calling him him and he doesn't even want to 171 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:13,480 Speaker 2: be trans anymore. He wished he never brainwashed himself. I 172 00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:16,320 Speaker 2: don't know if you can brainwash yourself. Here's CNN's Jake 173 00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:19,640 Speaker 2: Tapper making us all feel like where the problem is. 174 00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:21,720 Speaker 1: There's been some confusion about what the shooter's name was. 175 00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:26,000 Speaker 5: Yes, Robin Westman's mother applied to change her child's name 176 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:27,520 Speaker 5: in twenty nineteen. 177 00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:28,679 Speaker 1: It was at well. 178 00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:33,920 Speaker 5: At one point Robert Paul Westman, but since she identified 179 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:36,000 Speaker 5: us as a female and wants her name to reflect 180 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:38,160 Speaker 5: that identification when was underage, It's. 181 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:41,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, I love that there was some confusion. We're the 182 00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:45,440 Speaker 2: ones that are confused. We that are reading about the story, 183 00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:49,199 Speaker 2: washing watching the story. We're the ones that have the confusion. 184 00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:53,960 Speaker 2: And Robin doesn't want to even be Robin anymore, tired 185 00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:56,280 Speaker 2: of being trans. 186 00:10:57,040 --> 00:11:00,559 Speaker 1: Unbelievable. Well, Robert F. Kennedy Junior was asked about this. 187 00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:05,680 Speaker 2: They asked him, Look, he may very well have been 188 00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:10,720 Speaker 2: on some kind of psychiatric drugs, some kind of antidepressant. 189 00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:13,880 Speaker 2: There's all kinds of drugs out there, and there are 190 00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:17,080 Speaker 2: drugs being given to people who are transitioning. Was he 191 00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 2: chemically transitioning? What's going on? And are you, as the 192 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:25,359 Speaker 2: Secretary of Health and Human Services, looking at the potential 193 00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:28,640 Speaker 2: side effects of some of these drugs They're giving some 194 00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:29,600 Speaker 2: of these trans. 195 00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:34,679 Speaker 6: Kids potential contribution of some of the SSRI drugs and 196 00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:41,800 Speaker 6: some of the other psychiatric drugs that might be contributing 197 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:42,520 Speaker 6: to violence. 198 00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:45,760 Speaker 2: So there are some of these drugs and they're not 199 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:50,200 Speaker 2: just being given to trans kids, but a lot of 200 00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:53,280 Speaker 2: young people. By the way, I don't like that they're 201 00:11:53,280 --> 00:12:00,319 Speaker 2: calling him a kid. He's twenty three years old. Near 202 00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:05,559 Speaker 2: Camp Pendleton, forty two thousand US Marines, the average age 203 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:13,560 Speaker 2: twenty three. So these those Marines are certainly men and women. 204 00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:18,800 Speaker 1: So this isn't a kid. This is the grown ass man. 205 00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:26,240 Speaker 2: And maybe and clearly very dangerous and capable of horrible 206 00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:33,480 Speaker 2: crimes with weapons on and being potentially administered drugs where 207 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:36,640 Speaker 2: the side effects are homicidal thoughts. 208 00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:38,280 Speaker 1: I mean, this is really kind of crazy. 209 00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:43,280 Speaker 7: You know, many of them on there have black black 210 00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:48,880 Speaker 7: box warnings that weren't of suicidal ideation and homicidal ideation, 211 00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:51,679 Speaker 7: so we need we can't exclude those as a caul 212 00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:54,160 Speaker 7: bread and those are the kind of studies that we're doing. 213 00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:55,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, so Robert F. 214 00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:59,720 Speaker 2: Kennedy Junior is going to do those studies homicidal ideations. 215 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:02,319 Speaker 2: Know what that means. I don't like the sound of that. 216 00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:06,000 Speaker 2: Whatever it means, it does not sound good. The black 217 00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:08,720 Speaker 2: box warning that he refers to. When you go and 218 00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:12,760 Speaker 2: get a prescription, right, it's a like a brown clear, 219 00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:16,760 Speaker 2: brownish bottle with the white cap and it's got the 220 00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:20,320 Speaker 2: label on it from the doctor with the prescription number, 221 00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:23,120 Speaker 2: your name and all that and then sometimes there's an 222 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:28,160 Speaker 2: extra long, triangular a rather rectangular sticker on it, like 223 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:30,840 Speaker 2: there's the sticker that comes with the description of what's 224 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:36,160 Speaker 2: going on, and then there may be one or two. 225 00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:38,480 Speaker 1: Those are the black box warnings. 226 00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:41,280 Speaker 2: Sometimes they're outlined in a black box, which which is 227 00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:43,199 Speaker 2: where it comes from. They're not always outlined with a 228 00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:47,360 Speaker 2: black box. Usually it says do not take this with alcohol. 229 00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:54,280 Speaker 2: But sometimes it says more strong things. I mean real, 230 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:57,840 Speaker 2: real serious warnings, serious hazards that could lead to death, 231 00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:00,640 Speaker 2: in serious industry, serious in injury. 232 00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:03,600 Speaker 1: And what RFK Jr. 233 00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:06,560 Speaker 2: Is saying is that almost all of these drugs have 234 00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:10,560 Speaker 2: black box warnings that don't say don't mix this with alcohol, 235 00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:13,800 Speaker 2: could make a sleepy. It says there could be suicidal 236 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:20,760 Speaker 2: or homicidal thoughts or intentions as a result as a 237 00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:25,160 Speaker 2: result of taking this medicine. So maybe, just maybe it 238 00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:28,960 Speaker 2: might not be worth having these medicines administered to people. 239 00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:32,920 Speaker 2: And if the medicine is administered to people, maybe we 240 00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 2: ought to ensure they're not near any weapons or anything. 241 00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:39,560 Speaker 1: Here's RFK Junior again. 242 00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:42,000 Speaker 2: I think this is really an important point because so 243 00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:46,360 Speaker 2: many people are saying, look, let's wait for the toxicology report. 244 00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:48,960 Speaker 2: Let's see what's going on inside his body, Let's see 245 00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:50,000 Speaker 2: what kind of drugs he's on. 246 00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:51,720 Speaker 1: He seems to be unstable. 247 00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:54,760 Speaker 2: If he wanted to change his name from Robert to Robin, 248 00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:58,080 Speaker 2: that he was probably transitioning. He references in his own 249 00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:02,440 Speaker 2: journals that he clearly was trans because now he's saying 250 00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:06,239 Speaker 2: he's tired of being trans and wished he never brainwashed 251 00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:08,640 Speaker 2: himself in the first place. But is keeping his hair 252 00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:12,280 Speaker 2: long because it's the last shred of being trans, which 253 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:15,640 Speaker 2: is a contradiction. If you're tired of being trans, then 254 00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:19,640 Speaker 2: cut your hair. But who knows what's going on in 255 00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:24,640 Speaker 2: his mind, And it's likely that he was being prescribed 256 00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:25,200 Speaker 2: these kinds of. 257 00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:30,680 Speaker 6: Drugs, potential contribution of some of the SSRI drugs and 258 00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:37,640 Speaker 6: some of the other psychiatric drugs that might be contributing 259 00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:38,360 Speaker 6: to violence. 260 00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:42,320 Speaker 2: So I think this is certainly worthy of examination, and 261 00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:45,000 Speaker 2: I'm glad that the Secretary of Health and Human Services 262 00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:48,680 Speaker 2: is digging deep into this. I'm sure that there are 263 00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:52,120 Speaker 2: a lot of people that are being prescribed all kinds 264 00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:55,000 Speaker 2: of psychiatric medicine that are helped by it, and I'm 265 00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:58,720 Speaker 2: sure there are lots of responsible doctors, and that's great, 266 00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:04,600 Speaker 2: but when the side effects are so the potential side 267 00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:10,280 Speaker 2: effects are so dangerous, and so many SSRIs are being prescribed. 268 00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:11,840 Speaker 1: I was watching our Robert F. 269 00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:15,320 Speaker 2: Kennedy Junior at a congressional hearing and the statistics were 270 00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:17,640 Speaker 2: through the roof, and I think he was. 271 00:16:17,600 --> 00:16:18,720 Speaker 1: Talking about women. 272 00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:21,360 Speaker 2: But the amount of women in our society that are 273 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:26,200 Speaker 2: being prescribed these kinds of drugs, the you know, something 274 00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:28,520 Speaker 2: is happening out there that is worthy of examination. 275 00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:30,320 Speaker 1: And when you can see young people. 276 00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:37,600 Speaker 2: On these very very strong chemicals, it's time, right, It's time. 277 00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 2: This is what an agency like the Department of Health 278 00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:44,960 Speaker 2: and Human Services ought to be doing to find out 279 00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:46,720 Speaker 2: what all is going on here? 280 00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:47,760 Speaker 1: All right? When we get back. 281 00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:54,960 Speaker 2: Mayor Karen Bass has ordered increased police presence around. 282 00:16:54,560 --> 00:17:01,200 Speaker 8: Schools, particularly Catholic schools, which is surprising because I thought 283 00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:07,040 Speaker 8: an increased presence of officers freaked out the illegals. 284 00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:09,120 Speaker 1: We'll talk about it coming up next. 285 00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:13,560 Speaker 2: KFI AM six forty Live Everywhere on the iHeartRadio app. 286 00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:18,840 Speaker 4: You're listening to John Cobels on demand from KFI AM 287 00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:19,440 Speaker 4: six forty. 288 00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:22,800 Speaker 1: Louke Penrose sitting here for John Cobelt. This week. Thanks 289 00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:23,320 Speaker 1: for tuning in. 290 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:25,520 Speaker 9: I'm so glad you guys are talking about this. I 291 00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:27,639 Speaker 9: have a twenty two year old son who was on 292 00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:30,639 Speaker 9: an SSRI about a year and a half ago. We 293 00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:34,240 Speaker 9: started getting these crazy rages. All the doctors wanted to 294 00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:37,040 Speaker 9: do was give him more drugs. We slowly took him 295 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:39,480 Speaker 9: off of it. He is so much better. We haven't 296 00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:43,919 Speaker 9: seen any rage. He's so much calmer. These SSRIs are evil, 297 00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:45,119 Speaker 9: watch out people. 298 00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:47,479 Speaker 1: Yeah, I appreciate the call. I don't know if they 299 00:17:47,480 --> 00:17:48,040 Speaker 1: are evil. 300 00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:53,960 Speaker 2: I think that they are often over prescribed. And look, 301 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,120 Speaker 2: I don't know the statistics, and you don't know either, 302 00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:58,760 Speaker 2: buy and large. Maybe they're working for most people, and 303 00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:02,800 Speaker 2: maybe a small percentage of people are experiencing the side 304 00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:05,679 Speaker 2: effects are kind of indications or what Robert F. Kennedy 305 00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:10,439 Speaker 2: calls here black box warning that come to reality. But 306 00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:14,840 Speaker 2: then we need to be more thoughtful and more study 307 00:18:14,920 --> 00:18:15,840 Speaker 2: has to take place. 308 00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:17,959 Speaker 1: And that's exactly what Kennedy said he was going to do. 309 00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:23,240 Speaker 6: Potential contribution of some of the SSRI drugs and some 310 00:18:23,280 --> 00:18:30,720 Speaker 6: of the other psychatric drugs that might be contributing to violence. 311 00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:35,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, my middle son three four five years ago. Maybe 312 00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:40,200 Speaker 2: when he was in elementary school. You know, there was 313 00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:43,560 Speaker 2: concentration problem. He said, there was concentration problem. He wasn't 314 00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:46,639 Speaker 2: getting his work done. So is that lazy? Is that 315 00:18:46,680 --> 00:18:50,320 Speaker 2: emotional immaturity? Is that bad parenting? Maybe I should have 316 00:18:50,359 --> 00:18:52,320 Speaker 2: been more strict, My wife should have been more strict. 317 00:18:53,840 --> 00:18:55,880 Speaker 2: At one point we took him to the eye doctor. 318 00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:58,960 Speaker 2: Can he not see the blackboard or the whiteboard whatever 319 00:18:58,960 --> 00:18:59,640 Speaker 2: it's called now? 320 00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:03,280 Speaker 1: And nothing. 321 00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:09,000 Speaker 2: So eventually, of course, it became some kind of uh, 322 00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:13,520 Speaker 2: you know, focusing drug, and I was really apprehensive about it. 323 00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:16,199 Speaker 2: I called my brother, who works with children, not in 324 00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:19,160 Speaker 2: that capacity, but he's around young people. 325 00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:21,160 Speaker 1: He works in respiratory. 326 00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:24,159 Speaker 2: Care in North Carolina at the medical center. But I 327 00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:27,160 Speaker 2: just asked these like as close to a medical person that. 328 00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:29,560 Speaker 1: I would trust their opinion. And he said that a 329 00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:32,840 Speaker 1: lot of people are really, you know, helped by these things. 330 00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:33,639 Speaker 1: So try it. 331 00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:36,119 Speaker 2: You can always take it away.

Let's go 349 00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:31,359 Speaker 2: down now. He wasn't agitated or violent or any of 350 00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:36,840 Speaker 2: those things. There was some concern about a reduction in hunger, 351 00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:40,040 Speaker 2: and his grades improved. 352 00:20:40,040 --> 00:20:42,359 Speaker 1: But I'll never know now he's off it now because 353 00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:46,199 Speaker 1: I just said that's enough.

So did he just did 358 00:20:57,359 --> 00:21:00,600 Speaker 2: his emotional maturity just kick in? Did he grow up 359 00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:04,080 Speaker 2: a little bit? Did he get a new teacher? Was 360 00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:07,800 Speaker 2: he just more mature, able to focus and concentrate with 361 00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:08,480 Speaker 2: his own will. 362 00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:12,440 Speaker 1: Who knows, but I was really worried about it, and 363 00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:14,320 Speaker 1: I agree with the caller. You're absolutely right. 364 00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:17,000 Speaker 2: These doctors, man, they'll write a prescription like this on tomorrow. 365 00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:19,439 Speaker 1: It is curious, all right. 366 00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:22,880 Speaker 2: So the mayor also concerned about what happened in Minneapolis. 367 00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:24,440 Speaker 1: Mayor of Karen Bass. 368 00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:28,040 Speaker 2: Tweeted out or sent out a message on x in 369 00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:31,240 Speaker 2: light of the attack in Many, Minnesota. The Los Angeles 370 00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:36,080 Speaker 2: Police Department is conducting extra patrols at all Catholic schools 371 00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:40,240 Speaker 2: and places of worship where Los Angeles Unified School District 372 00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:44,840 Speaker 2: is advising the safety teams to increase high visibility of 373 00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:52,440 Speaker 2: patrols at schools as well. So, because of recent events, 374 00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 2: the Mayor of Los Angeles wants a heightened level of 375 00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:07,160 Speaker 2: visibility of officers on the school campuses, patrols at Catholic schools, 376 00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:11,680 Speaker 2: and the Los Angeles Unified School District advising for high 377 00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:15,200 Speaker 2: visibility patrols at their schools as well, so public schools, 378 00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:17,840 Speaker 2: which is fascinating to me. 379 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:21,240 Speaker 1: I thought this was absolutely fascinating. I thought. 380 00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:28,000 Speaker 2: That an increase of police presence or any law enforcement 381 00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:32,959 Speaker 2: presence in and around the schools freaked out the illegals. 382 00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:36,280 Speaker 2: I thought that was the reason the illegals were staying home. 383 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:39,520 Speaker 2: I thought the illegals were afraid to do drop off 384 00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:42,840 Speaker 2: because the law enforcement were going to get him. I 385 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:48,000 Speaker 2: don't think illegals know the difference between LAPD, the Sheriff's Department, 386 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:51,720 Speaker 2: Border Patrol, Immigration and Customs Enforcement FBI. 387 00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:56,119 Speaker 1: They're all law enforcement, and if you're an illegal, you 388 00:22:56,119 --> 00:22:58,440 Speaker 1: want to I was told that they were very scared. 389 00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:02,560 Speaker 2: Remember that there are people people dropping off groceries at 390 00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:05,560 Speaker 2: their homes because they're so afraid. 391 00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:07,480 Speaker 1: I was told that. 392 00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:11,120 Speaker 2: The you know, the all the markets, the open air 393 00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:19,600 Speaker 2: markets in downtown, the food markets, all the illegals were 394 00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:24,840 Speaker 2: hiding out because of Trump's ice commandment to deport all 395 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:27,760 Speaker 2: the illegals. That all the good illegals were scared and 396 00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:30,119 Speaker 2: they were staying home, and all the good illegals were 397 00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:32,639 Speaker 2: afraid to drop off their kids to school because of 398 00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:34,760 Speaker 2: the increased law enforcement presence. 399 00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:36,679 Speaker 1: And now the mayor of Los Angeles is. 400 00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:41,760 Speaker 2: Saying, well, yes and no, lou Yes, if you have 401 00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:45,600 Speaker 2: ice vehicles around the schools, then the illegals they'll scram 402 00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:49,640 Speaker 2: But if there is a shooter that's shooting Catholic kids 403 00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:53,560 Speaker 2: in Minneapolis, why then we do want an increase in 404 00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:58,320 Speaker 2: the visibility at police because that'll scare away the trans 405 00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:02,399 Speaker 2: shooter from the Catholic schools here in Los Angeles. 406 00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:05,560 Speaker 1: Like, it's unbelievable hypocrisy. 407 00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:08,919 Speaker 2: Either the imposition of law enforcement is the highest deturn 408 00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:12,399 Speaker 2: of crime, which I believe it is, or it isn't. 409 00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:19,080 Speaker 2: Isn't the mayor of Los Angeles concerned a lot of 410 00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:24,240 Speaker 2: either galaliens or Catholic So presumably they'd be in those 411 00:24:24,280 --> 00:24:30,560 Speaker 2: Catholic schools on some kind of scholarship.

We're always told how hard working they are. 414 00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:38,120 Speaker 2: They're all on medical but they're hardworking, so. 415 00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:39,080 Speaker 1: They could afford the tuition. 416 00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:44,040 Speaker 2: So wouldn't the illegals that have their kids in Catholic 417 00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:48,320 Speaker 2: school be spooked by the increase of law enforcement circling 418 00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:52,360 Speaker 2: around the school.

And then when does that end? 506 00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:07,400 Speaker 1: Because there are teenagers that get. 507 00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:13,680 Speaker 2: Addicted to amphetamines not to be depressed, but for the 508 00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:17,800 Speaker 2: opposite effect. So look, if the chemistry is that cock eye, 509 00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:20,360 Speaker 2: then maybe Robert F. Kennedy Junior is onto something when 510 00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:22,120 Speaker 2: he says we need to study all of this all 511 00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:22,720 Speaker 2: over again. 512 00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:28,240 Speaker 7: You know, many of them on there have black box 513 00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:33,960 Speaker 7: warnings that weren't of suicidal ideation and homicidal ideation. 514 00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:35,240 Speaker 1: So we need we can't. 515 00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:37,200 Speaker 6: Exclude those as a call bread and those are the 516 00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:38,760 Speaker 6: kind of nutties that we're doing. 517 00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:42,000 Speaker 2: Some of the more common black box warnings that he's 518 00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:45,360 Speaker 2: referencing there. These are warnings issued by the US Food 519 00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:54,320 Speaker 2: and Drug Administration. The FDA alert prescribers, the prescribers, not 520 00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:57,760 Speaker 2: the patients to serious hazards that could lead to death 521 00:30:58,120 --> 00:31:02,920 Speaker 2: serious injury. Some of the more prominent black box warnings 522 00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:08,120 Speaker 2: provide critical information about potential risk, vulnerable patients, the populations 523 00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:13,360 Speaker 2: of those patients, or the critical dosing instructions. So what 524 00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:16,000 Speaker 2: he's saying there is that doctors need to be more 525 00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:21,000 Speaker 2: thoughtful and how they administered these drugs. 526 00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:22,360 Speaker 10: It does. 527 00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:26,240 Speaker 2: Remain to be seen what exactly was in his system. 528 00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:29,440 Speaker 2: But we know very little more about this shooter from yesterday, so. 529 00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:31,880 Speaker 1: There's been some confusion about what the shooter's name was. Yeah, 530 00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:33,760 Speaker 1: a lot of confusion about the name of the shooter. 531 00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:35,840 Speaker 1: That's what CNN's focused on. The rest of us want 532 00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:36,719 Speaker 1: to know why he did it. 533 00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:41,800 Speaker 11: Robin Westman obtained the three guns legally and recently, according 534 00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:46,600 Speaker 11: to Minneapolis police. The police now shifting their investigation into 535 00:31:46,640 --> 00:31:50,560 Speaker 11: the writings from what seems like the shooter's journal that 536 00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:52,040 Speaker 11: includes sketches of a. 537 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:57,000 Speaker 1: Picture, technical problems there, yeah, sketches of the church. That 538 00:31:57,120 --> 00:31:58,440 Speaker 1: is pretty spooky stuff. 539 00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:01,320 Speaker 2: And we still don't know anything about the siblings. We 540 00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:04,640 Speaker 2: still don't know anything about the mother, the FBI said, 541 00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:07,800 Speaker 2: or rather, the Minneapolis Police Department said, they have not 542 00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:12,240 Speaker 2: yet been successful in interviewing the mother, which means to 543 00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:14,560 Speaker 2: me that the mother is still at large. I still 544 00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:17,760 Speaker 2: I know these are all adults, or at least he's 545 00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:19,000 Speaker 2: an adult, the mother's an adult. 546 00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:20,320 Speaker 1: I don't know how old the siblings are. 547 00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:25,040 Speaker 2: But at some point, if we're going to continue what 548 00:32:26,360 --> 00:32:31,320 Speaker 2: I call this extended adolescence, and we all are guilty 549 00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:33,719 Speaker 2: of it because so many of us refer to him 550 00:32:33,720 --> 00:32:34,160 Speaker 2: as a kid. 551 00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:36,720 Speaker 1: Look, this kid was troubled. This was some troubled kid 552 00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:41,400 Speaker 1: twenty three years old. I don't know where he was living. 553 00:32:41,720 --> 00:32:44,200 Speaker 2: Let's, for the sake of argument, say he was living 554 00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:48,080 Speaker 2: with his mother, and his mother was paying his car insurance, 555 00:32:48,200 --> 00:32:50,760 Speaker 2: and you know, his mother was paying room and board. 556 00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:53,080 Speaker 2: And I don't know if he had a job or not, 557 00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:56,120 Speaker 2: but he had some kind of cash because he was 558 00:32:56,160 --> 00:33:01,440 Speaker 2: able to obtain these guns. Now the mother could say, 559 00:33:01,480 --> 00:33:06,920 Speaker 2: I had no idea, But you do have responsibility over 560 00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:09,960 Speaker 2: what goes on in your house. Like if you own 561 00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:12,520 Speaker 2: a house and you live in that house and your 562 00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:14,920 Speaker 2: son is running a meth lab in the basement or 563 00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:18,480 Speaker 2: in one of the bedrooms, like you are as the homeowner, 564 00:33:18,520 --> 00:33:21,320 Speaker 2: responsible for what's going on in that house. So at 565 00:33:21,320 --> 00:33:27,960 Speaker 2: what point do we extend the responsibility to the enabling 566 00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:38,480 Speaker 2: parent of these adults but effectively extended adolescents, which is 567 00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:41,479 Speaker 2: what really it appears he is choose. 568 00:33:42,120 --> 00:33:45,480 Speaker 11: Pelisia shooter appears to have timed a YouTube video to 569 00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:47,000 Speaker 11: post yesterday. 570 00:33:47,080 --> 00:33:48,760 Speaker 1: It's under review by the FBI. 571 00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:55,240 Speaker 11: The video contains weapon inscriptions containing hateful, disturbing messages targeting blah. 572 00:33:56,520 --> 00:33:57,240 Speaker 1: The problems there. 573 00:33:57,560 --> 00:34:00,680 Speaker 2: Uh yeah, he went after everybody. He was targeting Jews 574 00:34:00,680 --> 00:34:03,840 Speaker 2: in the Holocaust. He was questioning whether Jews died in 575 00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:05,360 Speaker 2: the Holocaust or not enough died. 576 00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:07,840 Speaker 1: I mean, very hateful things. He went on. 577 00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:13,440 Speaker 2: Everybody, went on the black population, Asian population, certainly President Trump. 578 00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:17,920 Speaker 1: He didn't like him either. So it was completely deranged. 579 00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:22,000 Speaker 2: And in many respects I kind of agree with Sharon 580 00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:24,880 Speaker 2: on this from Gary and Shannon, Like, I am fascinated 581 00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:28,680 Speaker 2: with crime, and you know, crime stories when there are 582 00:34:28,760 --> 00:34:32,680 Speaker 2: motives involved that regard you know, wealth or greed or 583 00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:36,800 Speaker 2: vengeance or crimes of passion and all that other stuff 584 00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:37,920 Speaker 2: that's the stuff of movies. 585 00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:41,480 Speaker 1: When it's just the writings of a lunatic, what's the difference? 586 00:34:41,640 --> 00:34:42,560 Speaker 1: Who cares what he says? 587 00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:42,680 Speaker 11: Like? 588 00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:44,800 Speaker 1: How does that help anybody understand? 589 00:34:45,520 --> 00:34:48,399 Speaker 2: More importantly, how does that help anybody stop this from 590 00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:50,320 Speaker 2: happening again going forward? 591 00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:54,160 Speaker 1: Which ultimately is the goal here, Lou Penrose. 592 00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:57,280 Speaker 2: If John Cobelt on The John Cobelt Show on KFI 593 00:34:57,480 --> 00:35:00,200 Speaker 2: AM six forty live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app. 594 00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:06,120 Speaker 4: AFI, Hey, you've been listening to the John Cobalt Show podcast. 595 00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:08,640 Speaker 2: You can always hear the show live on KFI AM 596 00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:11,680 Speaker 2: six forty from one to four pm every Monday through Friday, 597 00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:15,000 Speaker 2: and of course anytime on demand on the iHeartRadio app
