Might ask yourself, wait a minute, 14 00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:47,240 Speaker 2: there was such controversy over this bill that got killed 15 00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:50,440 Speaker 2: by public safety committees that it passes eighty to zero. 16 00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:55,480 Speaker 1: They were massively embarrassed, starting with the chairman of the 17 00:00:55,520 --> 00:01:01,760 Speaker 1: Assembly Public Safety Committee, Reginald Jones. So we call him Reggie. 18 00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:05,640 Speaker 1: He's here in Los Angeles, and this guy was the 19 00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:09,000 Speaker 1: big block for a long time. He didn't think that 20 00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:13,080 Speaker 1: to men, you know, dirty, sweaty, sleazy men who sell 21 00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:16,560 Speaker 1: innocent little girls into sex slavery ought to be punished 22 00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:19,880 Speaker 1: too harshly. We don't know why he thought that. 23 00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:23,520 Speaker 2: Well, because this could open them up to the three 24 00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:26,440 Speaker 2: strikes laws, and they hate the three strikes laws. 25 00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:29,639 Speaker 1: Yes, but then they would stay in prison even longer, 26 00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:33,280 Speaker 1: all these disgusting dirty men who sell little children into 27 00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:37,399 Speaker 1: sex slavery. But Reggie didn't want that bad things to 28 00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:38,400 Speaker 1: happen to these guys. 29 00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:41,760 Speaker 2: He has created such a firestorm when he kept getting 30 00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:45,200 Speaker 2: stopped in the Public Safety Committee that, at least according 31 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:48,240 Speaker 2: to reports we're reading, it got Newsome involved, It got 32 00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 2: the Speaker of the Assembly involved, and eventually made through 33 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 2: the Public Safety Committee to the full vote, which, as 34 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:57,600 Speaker 2: I just said, was eighty to zero. Let's bring on 35 00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 2: State Senator shen and Grove, of course, the author of 36 00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:02,560 Speaker 2: this bill, and it all began send it Bill fourteen. 37 00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:06,160 Speaker 1: Channon, how are you? And congratulations again? 38 00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:08,480 Speaker 3: Hey, how are you? Guys? Who would have thought it 39 00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:09,880 Speaker 3: would have been that hard to get a bill like 40 00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:11,480 Speaker 3: after this Assembly? 41 00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:12,480 Speaker 1: It should have been five man? 42 00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:14,240 Speaker 2: Well, what does this tell you when it comes to 43 00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:16,160 Speaker 2: any kind of criminal justice reform here? 44 00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:17,000 Speaker 1: What does it tell you? 45 00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:20,280 Speaker 3: Well? I think the issue is is exactly what you 46 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:22,200 Speaker 3: guys just said. They don't want to put people in prison, 47 00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:25,360 Speaker 3: and this is the first strikable offense in almost a decade, 48 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:28,720 Speaker 3: and they were not They felt like it was going backwards. 49 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 3: But when they can't bring in that argument to me, 50 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:33,400 Speaker 3: I just let them finish their argument about you know, 51 00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:36,280 Speaker 3: you can't do this. It doesn't do any good to 52 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 3: put people in prison for a longer period of time. 53 00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 3: There's no nothing, no evidence shows that it works. YadA, yah, YadA, 54 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,320 Speaker 3: all the stuff that they say, exactly. 55 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:48,400 Speaker 1: You know, this is what I love. If they're in prison, 56 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 1: they can't sell another little girl into sex slavery while 57 00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 1: they're in prison. So yes, it absolutely does work. That's 58 00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:58,160 Speaker 1: the whole point. As long as they're in prison, the 59 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:02,400 Speaker 1: girls aren't going to be sold into sex. That's nonsense, 60 00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:03,680 Speaker 1: and they know it's nonsense. 61 00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 3: Well, I said, sometimes it's about justice and punishment, and 62 00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:09,960 Speaker 3: I think we should make an exception for people to 63 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,880 Speaker 3: go to prison, especially if they're selling children for sex. 64 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:16,320 Speaker 1: You have to make this argument, Huh. Isn't this amazing? 65 00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:18,360 Speaker 3: Every time I had to make it, like six or 66 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:19,400 Speaker 3: seven times. 67 00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:22,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, again, how long? What was the when we're the 68 00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:23,360 Speaker 2: beginnings of this bill. 69 00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:24,600 Speaker 1: How far back does this go? 70 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:27,000 Speaker 3: Well, it started three years ago. 71 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:30,400 Speaker 1: But Shannon, do you think they really believe what they're saying? 72 00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:34,960 Speaker 1: Do you think do you think, like Reggie Jones, Sawyer 73 00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 1: actually believes it doesn't do any good to put a 74 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:42,040 Speaker 1: guy who sells children into sex slavery away. He really 75 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 1: believes that. 76 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:45,440 Speaker 3: Oh, Reggie Jones Sawyer says that, and then he votes 77 00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:49,920 Speaker 3: to have campaign finances protect hire private security after he 78 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:53,480 Speaker 3: defends the police, right break, not that they say make 79 00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:58,240 Speaker 3: sense nothing, So you can't I mean, realistically, guys, if 80 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:02,600 Speaker 3: you can't put somebody in prison for selling children for sex, 81 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:05,200 Speaker 3: think about that for just a second. 82 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 1: Right, So that what's what's what's the what's the real motivation? 83 00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:12,280 Speaker 1: Then he can't possibly believe what he's saying. 84 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 3: I don't know. I guess you'd have to ask him, 85 00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:18,520 Speaker 3: because he sounds pretty convincing when he talks. 86 00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:22,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, yeah, people can sound convincing, especially when they're 87 00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:24,240 Speaker 1: covering up maybe other reasons. 88 00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:26,719 Speaker 3: Yeah, they talk about you know how it's one hundred 89 00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:28,560 Speaker 3: and twenty eight thousand dollars a year and that money 90 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:31,760 Speaker 3: should be used to poverty instruction, you know, areas where 91 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:35,080 Speaker 3: you know people are being trafficked. They say it disproportionate, 92 00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,920 Speaker 3: you know, disapportionately affects people of color. And I agree 93 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:41,080 Speaker 3: with them. If we could get this bill signed by 94 00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:43,599 Speaker 3: the governor, would help more black and brown children be 95 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:46,880 Speaker 3: off a figure Row Street in Los Angeles than white children. 96 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:50,799 Speaker 3: I mean, there are arguments, all their arguments all point 97 00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:53,760 Speaker 3: to the thing. So it's ridiculous. 98 00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:55,520 Speaker 1: We've got to get off this this. We got to 99 00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 1: stop debating guys like him on race because the race 100 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:01,920 Speaker 1: has nothing to do with this. It's whether you committed 101 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:04,400 Speaker 1: the crime or not, period, and a story. And they're 102 00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:06,800 Speaker 1: trying to use race as a shield. This is what 103 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:09,360 Speaker 1: I'm saying. There's something else going on. They use race 104 00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:12,560 Speaker 1: as a distraction. It's a noisy distraction and a shield 105 00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:15,280 Speaker 1: so as not to delve into why do they really 106 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:18,120 Speaker 1: want little girls sold into sex slavery? Why don't they 107 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:20,679 Speaker 1: want to punish the guy? It's because of race has 108 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:21,560 Speaker 1: nothing to do with it. 109 00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:23,760 Speaker 3: Well, you know, I think I don't want to say 110 00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:25,440 Speaker 3: it was the right person to do it, but I'm not. 111 00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 3: You know, I don't have a college degree, but I'm 112 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 3: pretty quick. 113 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:27,880 Speaker 1: On my feet. 114 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:31,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, and he says, and he says, you know, this 115 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:34,760 Speaker 3: disproportionally affects people of color, and goes down the race path, 116 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:36,559 Speaker 3: and I let him finish and do all of his stuff, 117 00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:38,240 Speaker 3: and then I just said, you know. They said, you 118 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 3: know there, do you have a response, And I'm like, 119 00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:41,240 Speaker 3: I don't care what color your skin is. If you're 120 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:43,040 Speaker 3: selling children for six I want you in prison. 121 00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, That's that is the only response that's got 122 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 1: to be the response. Hey, you know what whatever color is, 123 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:51,200 Speaker 1: he goes to prison, doesn't matter. 124 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:52,479 Speaker 3: If it's a black. 125 00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 1: White, brown, yellow, whatever, you can get something. Yet it 126 00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 1: doesn't matter. That's why they flip this whole debate and 127 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:00,880 Speaker 1: everybody's getting sucked into it. So I don't get to it. 128 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:03,839 Speaker 1: It's about behavior, okay, Well, if it's about behavior, that's 129 00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:05,599 Speaker 1: that's the worst behavior imaginable. 130 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:08,560 Speaker 3: And then they talk about cost and the analysis and 131 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:12,440 Speaker 3: the public safety analysis. They did not in the even appropriations, 132 00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:15,960 Speaker 3: they did not even consider what it costs a rehabilitate 133 00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 3: a victim, like the trauma, the care if they're a minor, 134 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,800 Speaker 3: if you know, if they're absent from their families, the 135 00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:25,400 Speaker 3: cost of putting them in housing. The didn't even attribute 136 00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:26,640 Speaker 3: one dime to victim. 137 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:29,680 Speaker 1: Sure, we've got the highest taxes in the nation and 138 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 1: they care about cost. I don't believe that either. Again, 139 00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:34,920 Speaker 1: that's a distraction argument. 140 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:38,440 Speaker 3: Yes, they had a hundred billion dollar surplus last year 141 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:40,840 Speaker 3: and thirty billion dollar devosit this year. They spend a 142 00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:42,479 Speaker 3: lot of money, and I. 143 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:45,719 Speaker 1: Think most people are willing to pay whatever price it 144 00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:48,960 Speaker 1: is to get sex traffickers in prison. I don't I 145 00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:50,479 Speaker 1: don't think people are worried about the price. 146 00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 2: Well, I mean, here's my question, Shen it was this 147 00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 2: hard to get this common sense, easy bill passed, which 148 00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,440 Speaker 2: I mean, honestly, what hope is there for any other 149 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:03,120 Speaker 2: kind of Yeah, three years? What hope is there to 150 00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:05,440 Speaker 2: do other things that we need to do to untangle 151 00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:07,760 Speaker 2: what's wrong with the criminal justice system in the state 152 00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:10,640 Speaker 2: thanks to the damage from Prop. Forty seven and fifty 153 00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:12,600 Speaker 2: seven and all these other things that are lining up 154 00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:15,880 Speaker 2: and leading the more dangerous people being free. 155 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 3: But you guys are the key to that. If you 156 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:20,920 Speaker 3: guys would if the media wouldn't have latched onto that 157 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:23,200 Speaker 3: a vast of all on them, they wouldn't have latched 158 00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:25,400 Speaker 3: onto this and then brought the media along with them. 159 00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 3: Californians would have gone about their everyday activities, working or whatever, 160 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 3: going to school, and never even noticed one bit that 161 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:35,200 Speaker 3: they killed that bill in public safety to put people 162 00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 3: in prison that sell your children for sex. 163 00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:39,040 Speaker 1: But they would have not even known they had killed 164 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:40,920 Speaker 1: it before though, right, you said this was a three 165 00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:42,360 Speaker 1: year push they did. 166 00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:44,000 Speaker 3: And you know it was a three year they killed 167 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 3: it before. And I think I got one local media 168 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:51,040 Speaker 3: station interview on it. I've done over I think seven 169 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 3: hundred now, so people are because of you guys. You 170 00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 3: know they have these have reporters inside of our hearing committees, 171 00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:01,120 Speaker 3: and they don't have them anymore. The LA Times used 172 00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:03,320 Speaker 3: to have press people there all the time, you know, 173 00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:06,400 Speaker 3: monitoring what happened. They used to monitor things at two 174 00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 3: o'clock in the morning when they called an emergency committee 175 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 3: hearing to make sure the public had noticed before the 176 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 3: you know, writing and you had to have it seventy 177 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:15,800 Speaker 3: two hours and writing before that two o'clock in the morning. 178 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 3: Any opposition to this bill, any opposition seeing no opposition, 179 00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:22,040 Speaker 3: I mean two o'clock in the morning, with no notice, 180 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:23,480 Speaker 3: who's going to be there to composed the bill? 181 00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:25,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's on purpose. They know what they're doing. So 182 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:28,760 Speaker 1: there's no media that covers Sacramento anymore. I mean, you 183 00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:32,679 Speaker 1: guys passed a pass much thousand bills and the public 184 00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:36,240 Speaker 1: has no idea what's coming next in those thousand bills. 185 00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:39,160 Speaker 3: Not very much, not there is not very There has 186 00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:41,280 Speaker 3: been this last session more than I've ever seen. And 187 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 3: I don't know if there's to be fourteen sparks that. 188 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:45,760 Speaker 3: But there's a lot of media attention going on on 189 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:48,200 Speaker 3: parental rights bills. There's a lot of media attention on 190 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:50,120 Speaker 3: you know, I made a comment the other day on 191 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:52,800 Speaker 3: the floor after they passed like six bills that had 192 00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:56,240 Speaker 3: to do with furthering union bills. Twenty dollars an hour 193 00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 3: minimum wage for fast food workers, twenty five dollars an 194 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:03,040 Speaker 3: hour minut I will wage for hospital workers, union strikes, 195 00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:07,160 Speaker 3: you get to draw unemployment benefits. So there's your employers 196 00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:10,320 Speaker 3: negotiating against yourself for a salary. And so I just said, well, 197 00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:12,640 Speaker 3: I'm really disappointed that the fourth branch of government have 198 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:14,000 Speaker 3: this much power this cycle. 199 00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:21,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, you guys got that right. Yeah, Well, listen, you 200 00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 1: really did a great job. This is a huge win 201 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:28,040 Speaker 1: for these children and every one of these one of 202 00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 1: the disgusting perverts who sells children into sex every day 203 00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:34,360 Speaker 1: that they end up staying in prison because your bill 204 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:37,320 Speaker 1: is going to mean that, you know, one kid or 205 00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:40,360 Speaker 1: ten kids get another day of freedom. 206 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:43,280 Speaker 3: I can tell you that a district attorney called. I 207 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:46,319 Speaker 3: had several calls after the floor vote, and a district 208 00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:48,600 Speaker 3: attorney called me as a grown man, and he's crying 209 00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:49,920 Speaker 3: on the other end of the line, and he goes, 210 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:52,079 Speaker 3: you gave us tools in our toolbox that we haven't 211 00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:52,960 Speaker 3: had in decades. 212 00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:55,920 Speaker 2: You know, it's important. 213 00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:58,000 Speaker 1: I think one of the keys is that there's so 214 00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:01,760 Speaker 1: little coverage of what the legislature does now. You know, 215 00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:05,239 Speaker 1: most parents would instantly say, no, all the sex traffickers 216 00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:07,679 Speaker 1: go to prison, they go to prison forever exactly. That's 217 00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:09,480 Speaker 1: what they would say if they knew about it. But 218 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:12,240 Speaker 1: they didn't know about it because nobody's telling them. And 219 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:14,560 Speaker 1: I don't know how to get around because we're like 220 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:15,000 Speaker 1: a two. 221 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:20,120 Speaker 3: Repeat offenders, so this isn't your first defense. But I 222 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:22,520 Speaker 3: mean most people would think, first events, you're done, right, 223 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:25,360 Speaker 3: what should be Yeah, just through the building. They had 224 00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:27,600 Speaker 3: to be a repeat offender, They had to go to prison, 225 00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:29,840 Speaker 3: get since the twelve years, get out in four and 226 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:32,520 Speaker 3: then get caught again sex trafficking a minor. Then my 227 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:35,719 Speaker 3: bill jigs in. That's how bad this is. I mean, 228 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:37,559 Speaker 3: the bill is not bad. I'm just saying it's a 229 00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:39,840 Speaker 3: step in the right direction. But to get a bill 230 00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 3: out of that building that addresses and punishes perverts for 231 00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:47,560 Speaker 3: sex trafficking miners was the hardest thing, really that I've 232 00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:49,160 Speaker 3: done in the time that I've been there. 233 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:52,200 Speaker 2: Well, good jobs, Shannon, and we appreciate you talking to 234 00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:54,280 Speaker 2: us once again. And if you ever pushing the bill 235 00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:56,240 Speaker 2: like this again, let us know and we'll help get 236 00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:57,199 Speaker 2: the word out. 237 00:10:57,600 --> 00:10:59,760 Speaker 3: I appreciate you guys. Thank you so much for covering 238 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:01,320 Speaker 3: all the southern California. You're awesome. 239 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:02,320 Speaker 1: Go up. 240 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:06,280 Speaker 2: States Senator Shannon Grover, Republican from Bakersfield, and her bill, 241 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:09,440 Speaker 2: Senate Bill fourteen to punish the sex traffickers of miners 242 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 2: as serious felons finally passed. It's expected to be signed 243 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:14,520 Speaker 2: by Newsom. 244 00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:15,640 Speaker 3: I don't know, but. 245 00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:20,120 Speaker 1: Good work, Reggie Jones Sawyer, nice work. Well, you keep 246 00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:22,560 Speaker 1: protecting those perferts. Bal You're doing a good job for 247 00:11:22,600 --> 00:11:25,319 Speaker 1: the public. John and Ken KF I am six forty 248 00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:26,920 Speaker 1: live everywhere. iHeartRadio apps. 249 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:30,880 Speaker 4: You're listening to John and Ken on demand from KFI 250 00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:32,040 Speaker 4: AM six forty. 251 00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:34,160 Speaker 1: Yeah. 252 00:11:34,200 --> 00:11:38,360 Speaker 2: Well, you know, next year is a presidential election, which 253 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:41,040 Speaker 2: means there'll be a big primary ballot coming in March 254 00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 2: and then of course in November. This means we will 255 00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:46,640 Speaker 2: be flooded with a lot of ballot measures next year, 256 00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:48,840 Speaker 2: and we're going to stop for a moment and talk 257 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:51,480 Speaker 2: about one that will be put before the voters. We've 258 00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:53,920 Speaker 2: covered it before, we talked to John Copoula, the Howard 259 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:55,640 Speaker 2: Jarvis Taxpayers Association. 260 00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:57,360 Speaker 1: It is known as. 261 00:11:57,280 --> 00:12:03,800 Speaker 2: ACA one, and in Sacramento the legislature said and pushed 262 00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:06,160 Speaker 2: it forward that it will be on the ballot for 263 00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:10,520 Speaker 2: next year. They approved it to ask voters whether or 264 00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:16,160 Speaker 2: not the threshold, the threshold to approve new special taxes 265 00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 2: and bonds for affordable housing and public infrastructure projects, should 266 00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:24,200 Speaker 2: be lowered to fifty five percent. Say it's Prop thirteen, 267 00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:28,000 Speaker 2: passed in nineteen seventy eight by the voters, requires a 268 00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:33,760 Speaker 2: two thirds approval on certain special tax increases and bond measures. This, 269 00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:37,960 Speaker 2: if passed by the voters, would lower that two thirds 270 00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:40,959 Speaker 2: to a mere fifty five percent. 271 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:44,160 Speaker 1: Do you realize how high our taxes are in California 272 00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:48,280 Speaker 1: with the two thirds protection. Yeah, case's amazing, right, and 273 00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:51,000 Speaker 1: we still have the number one tax burden by far 274 00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:54,000 Speaker 1: in the state. Now can you imagine how much worse 275 00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:58,440 Speaker 1: it'll get if the tax burden is the vote burden 276 00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:01,040 Speaker 1: is now fifty five percent instead of sixty seven percent. 277 00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:05,360 Speaker 1: And the problem is the public doesn't pay attention to 278 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:09,280 Speaker 1: most of this, and so what you usually get is 279 00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 1: an emotional ad campaign with as bond measures. 280 00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:16,600 Speaker 2: People are so happy to pass bond mesre. Oh sure 281 00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:19,400 Speaker 2: it's good borrowing, it's barring for a good thing like 282 00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:21,439 Speaker 2: high speed rail to build housing. 283 00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:24,840 Speaker 1: We agreed to spend ten billion dollars on high speed 284 00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:27,280 Speaker 1: rail because we were gonna be able to get from 285 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:30,079 Speaker 1: San Francisco to Los Angeles in about two and a 286 00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:32,920 Speaker 1: half hours. That was their promise. Oh, it would also 287 00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:36,000 Speaker 1: cure GLO global warming, I think too right. Well, of 288 00:13:36,040 --> 00:13:38,600 Speaker 1: course there's no such thing fifteen years later, and there 289 00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:42,600 Speaker 1: never will be. So why did people vote for high 290 00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:45,360 Speaker 1: speed Round two thousand and eight because they believed a 291 00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:47,880 Speaker 1: big lie? Because how would they know any better? How 292 00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:51,520 Speaker 1: would they know that there wasn't really a plan that 293 00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:55,400 Speaker 1: to build a railroad to La How are you going 294 00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:58,040 Speaker 1: to get it over or under the mountains. Well, they 295 00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:02,240 Speaker 1: didn't know there's still no Oh, they couldn't get it 296 00:14:02,280 --> 00:14:05,120 Speaker 1: over the mountain. That wasn't feasible. So they're gonna drive 297 00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:07,760 Speaker 1: drill through, like I don't know, thirty miles of rock 298 00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:10,760 Speaker 1: to get it through a mountain. That's never gonna happen. 299 00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:15,319 Speaker 1: So that's why you end up with all these tens 300 00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 1: of billions of dollars spent on a highway that's gonna 301 00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:20,600 Speaker 1: go on a rail line that's gonna go from Bakersfield 302 00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:24,360 Speaker 1: to said. My problem with this is that these measures 303 00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 1: voted on locally are for things like you know, parks 304 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:32,000 Speaker 1: and libraries and water and streets. Their government run bond projects, 305 00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,720 Speaker 1: so their government contracted out things. Did you see is 306 00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:38,040 Speaker 1: a debacle. That's why I think a two thirds vote 307 00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:41,760 Speaker 1: is a good one. It makes sure that a super 308 00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:44,120 Speaker 1: majority of people think it's a good idea to let 309 00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:47,760 Speaker 1: the government take more money either in borrowing or in taxes, 310 00:14:48,040 --> 00:14:51,680 Speaker 1: to throw at another project, which they usually just foul up. Anyway, 311 00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:53,440 Speaker 1: they're gonna build you up parks and then let the 312 00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:54,400 Speaker 1: homeless people live in it. 313 00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:57,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, most of this is about building housing. Again, the 314 00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:01,040 Speaker 2: magic government is gonna build all this affordable houses, housing 315 00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:04,920 Speaker 2: for the vagrants. Did the vagrants? Those people they can't 316 00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:07,680 Speaker 2: afford homes right now? I guess is the idea people who. 317 00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:09,320 Speaker 1: Can't afford homes have to move somewhere else. 318 00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:11,560 Speaker 2: That doesn't seem to get through to people. 319 00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:14,880 Speaker 1: No, because the government is never going to fix the 320 00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:17,640 Speaker 1: housing market. That's impossible. We have too many people living 321 00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:20,640 Speaker 1: here right there's nothing you can do. And if you 322 00:15:20,760 --> 00:15:24,160 Speaker 1: keep taking in, you know, thousands and thousands of illegal 323 00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:27,520 Speaker 1: aliens without any skills in education, they're going to be 324 00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:29,120 Speaker 1: poor for the rest of their lives and so are 325 00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:29,640 Speaker 1: their kids. 326 00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:33,240 Speaker 2: One tax group says that if ACA one passes and 327 00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:36,080 Speaker 2: the thresholds load of fifty five percent, it could lead 328 00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:38,680 Speaker 2: to two hundred and fifty million dollars in increased taxes 329 00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:39,720 Speaker 2: every election cycle. 330 00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:41,240 Speaker 1: Two hundred and two. 331 00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:45,760 Speaker 2: Hundred fifty million and increased taxes every election that's cycle 332 00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:49,040 Speaker 2: to billion every four years. You're going to be paying that. See, 333 00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:52,000 Speaker 2: you have to vote differently. You have to get aware 334 00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 2: of what's going on in the world and then vote differently. 335 00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:54,760 Speaker 1: That's your job. 336 00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:58,440 Speaker 2: So this is a no on the John and Ken 337 00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:03,600 Speaker 2: November twenty twenty five ballot, gott a no on ACA one. 338 00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:06,280 Speaker 2: There you go.

Three no votes right there, 346 00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:22,680 Speaker 1: Life would have been better. 347 00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:25,360 Speaker 2: All right, we'll be back John and KENKFI AM six 348 00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:27,480 Speaker 2: forty live everywhere iHeartRadio app. 349 00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:32,000 Speaker 4: You're listening to John and Ken on demand from KFI 350 00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:33,200 Speaker 4: AM six forty. 351 00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:42,200 Speaker 1: Did you see that they they lost a stealth fighter 352 00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:46,320 Speaker 1: jet for about twenty four hours? Oh no, no, yeah, 353 00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:49,840 Speaker 1: it was flying over South Carolina and the pilot ejected. 354 00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:54,360 Speaker 1: He was a Marine Corps pilot. He ejected himself, and 355 00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:57,800 Speaker 1: the plane kept flying in what they call a zombie state. 356 00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:02,080 Speaker 1: And then for the next twenty four hour ours nobody 357 00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:04,679 Speaker 1: in the military had any idea where the thing was, 358 00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:11,080 Speaker 1: and they finally found the wreckage in South Carolina. Oh 359 00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:13,080 Speaker 1: so it did end up crashing. I saw this last night. Yeah, 360 00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:16,720 Speaker 1: it ended up crashing.

Yeah, 362 00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:20,600 Speaker 1: I thought they would have a tracker on it at 363 00:17:20,640 --> 00:17:22,800 Speaker 1: all times. I keep looking through this story, It's like, well, 364 00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:27,399 Speaker 1: how could they not know where it is? And I 365 00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:29,760 Speaker 1: mean that that is a stealth fighter right, it crashes 366 00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:31,440 Speaker 1: and nobody knows that it crashed. 367 00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:32,800 Speaker 2: Those are expensive, aren't they? 368 00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:36,840 Speaker 1: Eighty million dollars of our money just just crashed into 369 00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:37,280 Speaker 1: the ground. 370 00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:39,120 Speaker 2: Whose head do we take? 371 00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:40,800 Speaker 1: I know, somebody's head. 372 00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:43,240 Speaker 2: Somebody's headed Defense Pentagon. 373 00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:46,639 Speaker 1: It's an F thirty five. Why the pilot ejecked? There 374 00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:50,560 Speaker 1: was some kind of mechanical issue mishap? Yeah, I don't know, 375 00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:55,119 Speaker 1: mishapp mishap. They were asking the public. It's like, we 376 00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:58,640 Speaker 1: have a missing stealth jet fighter pilot. If anyone has 377 00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:03,600 Speaker 1: seen it, it's like an ambrella for a plane. That 378 00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:05,640 Speaker 1: is stupid government. 379 00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:09,760 Speaker 2: We have, uh. Of course, the big story today, and 380 00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:14,440 Speaker 2: it began Saturday night with the shooting death of a 381 00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:19,320 Speaker 2: La County Sheriff's deputy named Ryan Clinkinbruomer, just thirty years old. 382 00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:22,560 Speaker 2: He was about to go on patrol. He was actually 383 00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:25,320 Speaker 2: taking his patrol cruiser out onto Sierra Highway up in 384 00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:29,080 Speaker 2: Palmdale outside the sheriff station, stopped at a red light. 385 00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:32,960 Speaker 2: A little bit later, a dark gray Toyota Corolla pulls 386 00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:37,040 Speaker 2: up behind him and apparently shots go off and the 387 00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:38,879 Speaker 2: deputy is shot in the head and he died from 388 00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:43,199 Speaker 2: his injuries hours later. That was Saturday. Today, after a 389 00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:47,600 Speaker 2: weekend of please anybody knows anything, offers of a reward, 390 00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 2: police honed in on a home in Palmdale and arrested 391 00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:53,560 Speaker 2: a twenty nine year old man by the name of 392 00:18:53,680 --> 00:19:00,480 Speaker 2: Kevin Cataneo Salazar. This is East Palmdale. This was his 393 00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:04,040 Speaker 2: family's home that he lived at, but it apparently did 394 00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:06,520 Speaker 2: result in a standoff. He may have seen the pictures 395 00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:10,280 Speaker 2: by now where he finally comes out shirtless and surrenders 396 00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:12,960 Speaker 2: to police officers. And they had a news conference this 397 00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:16,119 Speaker 2: morning to announce the arrest. The stories began early this 398 00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:18,760 Speaker 2: morning with person of interest and then. 399 00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:21,400 Speaker 1: I hate that phrase. Later it became right, no rest, 400 00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:23,200 Speaker 1: Normal people call it a suspect. 401 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:28,840 Speaker 2: So his mother spoke to the El Segundo Times in Spanish. 402 00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:31,639 Speaker 2: My son is mentally ill and if he did something 403 00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:33,960 Speaker 2: he wasn't in his full mental capacity. 404 00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:36,040 Speaker 1: Thanks Mom, not only. 405 00:19:35,840 --> 00:19:37,920 Speaker 2: Saying that he was the one that shot the deputy, 406 00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:40,000 Speaker 2: but nobody is saying he has a record for needing 407 00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:44,160 Speaker 2: mental help. Diagnosed she claims as a paranoid schizophrenic five 408 00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:47,840 Speaker 2: years ago. Voices in the head. Hey Mom, you're supposed 409 00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:50,679 Speaker 2: to get mental help. What I'm supposed to do it? 410 00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:52,920 Speaker 2: You're supposed to do it. You didn't get him the 411 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:55,760 Speaker 2: mental help. You didn't give him his pill. Why wasn't 412 00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:59,720 Speaker 2: he taking his medication? Schizophrenic, saying that he was hospitalized 413 00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:02,760 Speaker 2: and nor in the last year, but he stopped taking 414 00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:05,160 Speaker 2: his medication about ten months ago, which means. 415 00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:07,240 Speaker 1: Mom has to make sure he takes it. They don't 416 00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:11,240 Speaker 1: keep schizophrenics in the hospital forever. You go there after 417 00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:13,639 Speaker 1: an episode, and then they all they can do is 418 00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:17,200 Speaker 1: change the medication or give you more. They can't do it. 419 00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:19,520 Speaker 1: They can't do anything with schizophrenica. There's no treatment. 420 00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:22,359 Speaker 2: She said, I called the police several times before, but 421 00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 2: in the end they would just tell me he's an adult, 422 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:26,359 Speaker 2: he doesn't want to take his medication. We can't do anything. 423 00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:29,439 Speaker 1: There, you go, that's the big flaw. He should be 424 00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:31,680 Speaker 1: forced to take the medication or lock. 425 00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:34,440 Speaker 2: Him up in jail twice since his diagnosis. She claims 426 00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:35,679 Speaker 2: he's attempted suicide. 427 00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:39,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, the option, Oh, let him go out with a 428 00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:41,800 Speaker 1: gun and shoot a cop in the head. That's a 429 00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:44,080 Speaker 1: better option, right. We don't want to force him to 430 00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:47,120 Speaker 1: take a pill, but we'll let him shoot an officer 431 00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:50,919 Speaker 1: in the head. Okay, all right, that's the option you chose. Excellent. 432 00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:54,480 Speaker 2: She claims she was unaware that the son owned the gun, 433 00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:56,680 Speaker 2: but was told by detectives he had legally purchased a 434 00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:58,040 Speaker 2: weapon that was used in the attack. 435 00:20:58,119 --> 00:21:01,639 Speaker 1: Don't believe her, No, mom. Moms don't admit to this stuff, 436 00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:02,119 Speaker 1: at least not. 437 00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:05,119 Speaker 2: The mom says when she saw him on Saturday, he 438 00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:07,960 Speaker 2: acted as normal. We were cleaning tables and theirs, and 439 00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:09,840 Speaker 2: none of us knew anything. He didn't see anything with 440 00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:12,160 Speaker 2: anything to be out of the ordinary. He just came 441 00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:14,480 Speaker 2: back from shooting to death a police officer. But apparently 442 00:21:14,680 --> 00:21:16,480 Speaker 2: he acted around the house like he always does. 443 00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:17,240 Speaker 1: Yeah. 444 00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:20,600 Speaker 2: Her son's Facebook and Instagram bios both read dead in 445 00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:25,120 Speaker 2: a couple of days, weeks or years. Nice He apparently 446 00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:27,840 Speaker 2: followed the League of Legends, a popular video game wrote 447 00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:31,879 Speaker 2: a rave review online of a multiplayer online battle arena. 448 00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:35,360 Speaker 1: Wow, this is a twenty nine year old. 449 00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:39,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, I know, living with his parents. Apparently their dad 450 00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:42,760 Speaker 2: is their dad? There, I doesn't say, you're right this 451 00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:43,840 Speaker 2: the mother gave it in to me? 452 00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:47,160 Speaker 1: Is the dad saying this died? 453 00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:48,280 Speaker 2: Just the mother's words? 454 00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:51,199 Speaker 1: And what does this lady want the rest of the 455 00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:52,919 Speaker 1: world to do?

This story 481 00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:15,720 Speaker 2: is in San Francisco. This one is Chicago, where apparently 482 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:18,959 Speaker 2: a number of grocery stores have said, well it's just 483 00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:21,560 Speaker 2: not worth us, worth it for us to operate in 484 00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:24,840 Speaker 2: certain parts of the city, so they've shut down their operations. 485 00:23:25,680 --> 00:23:28,800 Speaker 2: Not to be outdone on this, the Chicago Mayor, Brandon 486 00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:32,760 Speaker 2: Johnson announced that they're looking at the possibility of city 487 00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:39,480 Speaker 2: owned grocery stores as a means of promoting equitable access 488 00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:40,159 Speaker 2: to food. 489 00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:45,639 Speaker 1: Okay, so the city allows the criminals to run amuck 490 00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:49,960 Speaker 1: and steal whatever they want. So when the grocery stores 491 00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:53,359 Speaker 1: get out of town, they go, well, this is outrageous, 492 00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:57,040 Speaker 1: This is not equitable, well run our own stores. 493 00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:00,600 Speaker 2: They're redlining us.

Oh, 505 00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:36,000 Speaker 1: because governments can't run businesses, they'll find out in Chicago. 506 00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 2: This reminded me of years ago. Remember in LA they 507 00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:45,560 Speaker 2: were upset to that there weren't enough healthy grocery store choices, 508 00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:47,800 Speaker 2: I think in South LA. So they wanted to ban 509 00:24:48,000 --> 00:24:50,679 Speaker 2: the opening of new fast food restaurants. Remember that movement 510 00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:53,720 Speaker 2: that goes back like twenty years I think in LA policies. 511 00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:58,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, and it doesn't do any good. I don't think. 512 00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:02,239 Speaker 1: I don't understand why these idiots can't get this through 513 00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:05,800 Speaker 1: their head. If you can't make money in a neighborhood, 514 00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:09,240 Speaker 1: you're not going to open a store, or you're not 515 00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:11,919 Speaker 1: or you're not going to keep it open. If you 516 00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:15,800 Speaker 1: can't make money, you don't go there. If the residents 517 00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 1: are going to steal all your goods, that you are 518 00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:21,679 Speaker 1: going to close and open a store in a neighborhood 519 00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:25,520 Speaker 1: where they don't steal the stuff. You can bitch about 520 00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:30,600 Speaker 1: equity and food insecurity and all that nonsense, but it 521 00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:34,040 Speaker 1: comes down to the behavior of the people in the neighborhood, 522 00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:38,200 Speaker 1: whether they steal the stuff or not. Also, one of. 523 00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:41,360 Speaker 2: The stores in question here is Whole Foods. Now, you're 524 00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:44,040 Speaker 2: going to open a Whole Foods on John's favorite West Side, 525 00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:45,720 Speaker 2: but you're not going to open a Whole Foods in 526 00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:49,920 Speaker 2: South LA. That's just so different populations have different tastes. 527 00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:52,320 Speaker 2: That's just the way it is. I don't go to 528 00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:53,040 Speaker 2: the Whole Foods. 529 00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:55,280 Speaker 1: If the Whole Foods have to depend on me on 530 00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:57,640 Speaker 1: the West Side, they'd all be bankrupt. Yeah, you're really 531 00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:00,280 Speaker 1: in the wrong neighborhood. I'm in the wrong name, and 532 00:26:00,280 --> 00:26:02,320 Speaker 1: I'm sure i'd find more. You are better. 533 00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:07,520 Speaker 2: Lots of very weight, conscious, healthy, obsessed west Side women 534 00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:10,720 Speaker 2: who oh, let's got a whole food there's so much 535 00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:12,879 Speaker 2: vegetation here to feast on. 536 00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:16,239 Speaker 1: Actually they keep their weight off with amphetamines. But that's uh, 537 00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:20,119 Speaker 1: is that right? If they yeah, prescribed, they just I 538 00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:22,399 Speaker 1: don't know, you don't know, I don't know, but they 539 00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:24,560 Speaker 1: they're they're I think you should tell me.

And most 543 00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:35,200 Speaker 1: weight loss drugs are some kind of amphetamine because it 544 00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:38,560 Speaker 1: speeds up your middle This ozmpic stuff, of the ozempic 545 00:26:38,560 --> 00:26:41,040 Speaker 1: stuff is like a whole new category.
