It teaches the development of self control 71 00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 3: as a means of overcoming destructive emotions. It encourages people 72 00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:36,680 Speaker 3: to focus on what they can control and accept what 73 00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:41,680 Speaker 3: they cannot, leading to emotional resilience and inner strength.

I just want 82 00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:01,080 Speaker 3: to know what y'all think it is we talk about 83 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:01,960 Speaker 3: it in the room less please. 84 00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:05,120 Speaker 2: A well meaning friend might ask you today, what do 85 00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:07,680 Speaker 2: you think about insert tragedy from the other side of 86 00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 2: the world. You and your equally well meaning concern might say, 87 00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:14,720 Speaker 2: I just feel awful about it. In this scenario, both 88 00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:17,599 Speaker 2: of you have put aside your reason choice without doing 89 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:21,680 Speaker 2: a single thing for the victims suffering from the actual tragedy. 90 00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:24,839 Speaker 2: It can be so easy to get distracted by, even 91 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:28,560 Speaker 2: consumed by horrible news from all over the world. The 92 00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:31,160 Speaker 2: proper response of the stoic to these events is not 93 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:35,760 Speaker 2: to not care, but mindless. Meaningless sympathy does very little either, 94 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 2: and comes at the cost of one's own serenity. In 95 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:41,599 Speaker 2: most cases, if there is something you can actually do 96 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:45,040 Speaker 2: to help these suffering people, then yes, the disturbing news 97 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 2: and your reaction to it has relevance to your reason choice. 98 00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:52,480 Speaker 2: If emoting is the end of your participation, then you 99 00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:55,719 Speaker 2: ought to get back to your own individual duty to yourself, 100 00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:57,680 Speaker 2: to your family, to your country. 101 00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:00,680 Speaker 3: I see basically what I take from that, you know, 102 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:02,640 Speaker 3: even though he's talking about something out of the country, 103 00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:04,440 Speaker 3: But basically what I take from that is most of 104 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 3: the grief about things happening somewhere to someone else you know, 105 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:10,600 Speaker 3: is actually hypocrisy. 106 00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:12,480 Speaker 1: And I don't want that to be the case. 107 00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:15,120 Speaker 3: Like when I hear stories like Sonya Massey, I do 108 00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:15,719 Speaker 3: feel horrible. 109 00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:16,920 Speaker 1: I wouldn't wish this on anyone. 110 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 3: Definitely wouldn't want it to be someone in my family, 111 00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:20,680 Speaker 3: Definitely wouldn't want it to be a friend that I know. 112 00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:24,680 Speaker 3: But I also say to myself, these situations happen, we feel. 113 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:25,600 Speaker 1: Bad, we report on them. 114 00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:27,960 Speaker 3: We go to social media with him, but then what 115 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,120 Speaker 3: outside of a molding, what are we really doing? This 116 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:33,520 Speaker 3: affirmation is also saying that if you can't do anything 117 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:36,400 Speaker 3: to immediately change the situation, then we should probably move 118 00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 3: on with our lives. 119 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:40,279 Speaker 1: That is what I completely disagree with, because that's. 120 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:42,200 Speaker 3: One of the reasons I believe these things keep happening 121 00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 3: is because so many of us don't do enough. 122 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 1: I just don't know what it is we can do. 123 00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:52,279 Speaker 3: Please let Chelsea Chelsea Handler give Sean Grayson the biggest 124 00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:55,840 Speaker 3: hee haw hee haw hee haw. That is way too much, 125 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:58,680 Speaker 3: Dan Maynez, I just don't know what it is we 126 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,279 Speaker 3: can do. It feels like every few months we're telling 127 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:05,159 Speaker 3: stories like this, Now, what do we do to change it? 128 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:08,240 Speaker 3: Like I really, truly, I personally have no idea. I 129 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:10,440 Speaker 3: would have to reach out to Tamika Mallory or what 130 00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:11,280 Speaker 3: are the activists? 131 00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:14,240 Speaker 1: Are you know a lawmaker that I know? I don't 132 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:14,719 Speaker 1: know what to do. 133 00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:17,840 Speaker 6: Yeah, And then I've seen the video. It was it's 134 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:22,200 Speaker 6: video servicing. Now when when other cops after he killed her, 135 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:25,800 Speaker 6: other cops that came to the scene or whatever and 136 00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:28,719 Speaker 6: questioned him, and he said she came at him. With 137 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:30,160 Speaker 6: the pod of water. 138 00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:31,240 Speaker 1: But we know that's not true. 139 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:34,480 Speaker 6: Lying like you know that now you line, we see 140 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:35,920 Speaker 6: the video, it's the video. 141 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:37,640 Speaker 3: But that's what I mean. We see videos like this 142 00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:40,359 Speaker 3: all the time. We know the officers be lying, but 143 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:42,559 Speaker 3: what do we do? I feel like we're just telling 144 00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:44,640 Speaker 3: the same story over and over every few months. 145 00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:46,640 Speaker 7: But at this at this point, I feel like police 146 00:06:46,640 --> 00:06:49,680 Speaker 7: officers have to be held liable in situations like this, right, 147 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 7: because what it makes somebody think twice and maybe say, 148 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:55,760 Speaker 7: you know what, I might not be as aggressive, I 149 00:06:55,839 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 7: might not use my firearm in a way that I'm 150 00:06:57,800 --> 00:06:59,640 Speaker 7: not supposed to as if I have to do jail time, 151 00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:02,279 Speaker 7: if I if I'm sued, if I'm all at because 152 00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:04,280 Speaker 7: if you give them immunity, then they feel. 153 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:04,960 Speaker 1: Like they're above the law. 154 00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:07,719 Speaker 7: But if this officer he was what fired immediately, he's 155 00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:10,200 Speaker 7: probably and hopefully gonna go to jail for a long 156 00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 7: time because there was no reason to shoot that woman. 157 00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:14,560 Speaker 3: But once again, maybe you're absolutely right. But we've had 158 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:18,240 Speaker 3: these conversations a million times. We talked about eliminating qualified immunity. 159 00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:21,000 Speaker 3: How do we make these things apps actually happen.
