But when 0:02:22.480 --> 0:02:24.799 they started black training come through, I think they fell 0:02:24.840 --> 0:02:25.160 in love. 0:02:25.240 --> 0:02:25.520 Baby. 0:02:25.600 --> 0:02:27.920 Oh my god, I had the best time.

Thank you Downielle Robins. 0:02:31.960 --> 0:02:34.480 We were at Downie or Land this weekend, Bobby, and 0:02:34.560 --> 0:02:38.520 it is a gathering of people from all nationalities, all 0:02:38.560 --> 0:02:43.840 walks of life. We barbecue, we paddleboarded, we were on canoes, 0:02:44.360 --> 0:02:47.919 we played kickball, we played cars. We joined together. And 0:02:48.240 --> 0:02:51.160 he had a podcast on Monday. And I'm sitting on 0:02:51.200 --> 0:02:53.240 the stage with no makeup. I'm looking just about like 0:02:53.280 --> 0:02:55.919 I look right now, and I'm looking at the audience 0:02:56.000 --> 0:02:59.720 of everything. When I say everything, everything, and they say 0:02:59.720 --> 0:03:01.720 playing and what does Danielle Land mean to you? And 0:03:01.760 --> 0:03:04.480 I said, I'm looking at America. This is America to me, 0:03:05.000 --> 0:03:07.080 this is the America that I grew up and everybody 0:03:07.200 --> 0:03:10.799 just getting along, fragnize it, fixing each other. Place. There 0:03:10.800 --> 0:03:15.480 were large whites, large black, small, black, small, agent. Everybody 0:03:15.600 --> 0:03:18.600 was a family. Nobody was in Louis being shot or 0:03:18.680 --> 0:03:21.080 being beat up. There was no profanity. It was so 0:03:21.080 --> 0:03:24.160 many kids around. The kids were interacting. That is the 0:03:24.160 --> 0:03:26.760 America I grew up in, and unfortunately that is not 0:03:26.840 --> 0:03:29.519 the America that I know right now. But I remember 0:03:29.760 --> 0:03:31.320 that that was it, and I was glad to be 0:03:31.400 --> 0:03:34.760 reminded of this is what is America, not what they're pushing. 0:03:34.880 --> 0:03:36.920 So it was a beautiful path for me. I had 0:03:36.920 --> 0:03:40.160 a great time. I was introduced to twenty six hundred 0:03:40.200 --> 0:03:42.560 new people because they had me host to show it 0:03:42.600 --> 0:03:44.480 was Trump Country. I came out and told a joke 0:03:44.520 --> 0:03:46.680 about Joe Biden, but of course I had to give 0:03:46.720 --> 0:03:48.480 them what they needed. I told one about Trump too. 0:03:48.480 --> 0:03:50.360 I said, Trump like the grad woman by the pussy. 0:03:50.560 --> 0:03:52.360 I hope he grabbed man. He's gonna be stroking for 0:03:52.440 --> 0:03:55.760 nine inches. They lost it. They loved me because I 0:03:55.800 --> 0:03:58.680 did not attack their leader. I made fun of their leader. 0:03:58.720 --> 0:04:01.080 It's a very big difference when you don't attack, but 0:04:01.120 --> 0:04:02.920 if you make fun of Because they know it too. 0:04:02.920 --> 0:04:05.120 They laughed with me, not at me, They laughed with me. 0:04:05.200 --> 0:04:07.440 It was a great experience, Bobby, and I was glad 0:04:07.440 --> 0:04:09.400 to go. So next year we got to go about it. 0:04:09.400 --> 0:04:11.320 Are you gonna get in the boat, Bobby Clifford. 0:04:11.840 --> 0:04:15.040 Sweet Jesus, I might think it. I might be like, uh, 0:04:15.240 --> 0:04:16.880 you know the Fitzgerald that went. 0:04:16.720 --> 0:04:19.239 Down, Oh that was a man, Bobby, three times begging 0:04:19.240 --> 0:04:21.440 than you. His boat didn't sing, now, any of it, Willie. 0:04:21.520 --> 0:04:28.880 Almost the whole time this boat had an erection. It 0:04:28.960 --> 0:04:30.000 was all up in the front. 0:04:30.040 --> 0:04:33.400 Good God, he didn't sit in the middle. 0:04:34.240 --> 0:04:35.719 You said it in the bag, baby, And the boat 0:04:35.760 --> 0:04:37.560 was full on hard good. I wanted to put a 0:04:37.560 --> 0:04:39.600 condom on it, Jesus. The boat was stating up. It 0:04:39.640 --> 0:04:42.000 was so much fun. It was. It was a great 0:04:42.160 --> 0:04:45.040 and it was It was a reminder of my childhood 0:04:45.120 --> 0:04:47.400 because when I used to go to summer camp, we 0:04:47.400 --> 0:04:50.280 were thrust upon each other with all different nationalities. So 0:04:50.360 --> 0:04:51.960 it wasn't though you were a black kid, I'm a 0:04:51.960 --> 0:04:54.400 white kid. You a Latino kid. You agent. We were 0:04:54.440 --> 0:04:56.960 all just children and we all got along. You know. 0:04:57.440 --> 0:04:59.440 We just got along because we got along because we 0:04:59.440 --> 0:05:02.039 were kids, not because we were colors and that's what's 0:05:02.040 --> 0:05:04.800 wrong with the world. Now everybody's seeing color as opposed 0:05:04.839 --> 0:05:07.680 to people. It's just crazy. But it was a great experience. 0:05:07.680 --> 0:05:10.600 Thank you, Donille Rawlins Downielle Land is wonderful.

I just had to 0:05:25.400 --> 0:05:27.600 get that out. And now we're back home to the 0:05:27.680 --> 0:05:30.320 drawing boy. Good God on my bad Jesus, thank you, 0:05:30.880 --> 0:05:33.440 and where we are this was This was also a 0:05:33.720 --> 0:05:36.800 very very touching and hard weekend for me, Bobby, because 0:05:36.920 --> 0:05:41.719 I lost We lost a legend. We lost somebody that 0:05:41.800 --> 0:05:44.680 I admire so much as I have impersonated her as 0:05:44.720 --> 0:05:47.559 a character for more than twenty years, the late, great, 0:05:47.640 --> 0:05:50.720 the one and only Miss Tina Turner herself. God, I 0:05:50.760 --> 0:05:53.520 love to do Tina Tina and used to Tina was 0:05:53.520 --> 0:05:55.599 my bread and butter for many years, Bobby. Because I 0:05:55.640 --> 0:05:58.240 was known as a teen at turning female impersonator. I 0:05:58.320 --> 0:06:00.800 made so much money just doing Tea as a character. 0:06:01.400 --> 0:06:03.040 You were the first person I thought of when I 0:06:03.080 --> 0:06:05.520 heard it and it popped up, I immediately thought a 0:06:05.520 --> 0:06:08.440 few I'm like, oh my god, that's you know, I mean, 0:06:08.480 --> 0:06:11.880 she was. She was a remarkable woman who had through 0:06:11.880 --> 0:06:15.160 the adversity of her life and the worst of circumstances. 0:06:15.960 --> 0:06:17.640 She was the phoenix that rose again. 0:06:18.200 --> 0:06:21.480 Yes she was. She was quite what fifty sixty years 0:06:21.480 --> 0:06:23.760 in the industry, and mind you, she was a black 0:06:23.800 --> 0:06:26.200 woman the whole time. So imagine how hard it was 0:06:26.240 --> 0:06:28.960 back then as a black entertainer and a woman, you know, 0:06:29.160 --> 0:06:32.560 because it ain't just because you're black. America is very sexist. 0:06:33.160 --> 0:06:35.640 And you know, she rose above all that. And then 0:06:35.680 --> 0:06:38.359 she left this country because she wanted to be She 0:06:38.520 --> 0:06:42.400 went to your because she had experienced being treated as 0:06:42.440 --> 0:06:46.520 a person. That is horrible to say, but so true. 0:06:46.880 --> 0:06:50.480 She experienced being treated as a person, not an entertainer, 0:06:50.600 --> 0:06:53.560 not black, not a woman, as a person, and she said, 0:06:53.600 --> 0:06:56.119 you know what, I'm out of here. So she brought 0:06:56.120 --> 0:06:58.720 her home in the south of France and lived and 0:06:58.800 --> 0:07:01.520 died there, and lived well and died well there. That 0:07:01.680 --> 0:07:04.239 was a beautiful thing. Sometimes you got to go find 0:07:04.279 --> 0:07:06.800 your joy, and Tina was a phenomenon. I used to 0:07:06.839 --> 0:07:08.640 have the legs. I still got them, they're just not 0:07:08.720 --> 0:07:11.360 as they're not as young and strong as they used 0:07:11.360 --> 0:07:13.120 to be. But I used to have the legs. I 0:07:13.160 --> 0:07:15.720 always had to smile, the tist together a little bigger. 0:07:16.000 --> 0:07:20.200 But I loved to emulate Tina. I loved Tina's fireing, 0:07:20.320 --> 0:07:24.000 her energy. I love that resty voice, and I loved 0:07:24.000 --> 0:07:27.880 that Tina was never nothing but hair, teeth, legs and 0:07:27.920 --> 0:07:30.640 a smile. She was always That's who Tina was. And 0:07:30.920 --> 0:07:32.200 energy energy. 0:07:32.280 --> 0:07:34.480 I was just gonna say the same thing, and energy. 0:07:34.760 --> 0:07:38.520 She kind of entered the room and everybody turned, regardless 0:07:38.560 --> 0:07:40.640 of what condition, if she was all done up or 0:07:40.680 --> 0:07:42.960 if she wasn't. And she married a much younger man. 0:07:43.360 --> 0:07:45.320 My god, was he what was he? Was he Frond 0:07:45.480 --> 0:07:47.520 or Swisser? 0:07:47.640 --> 0:07:50.080 I think he was. I think he was Swiss. I 0:07:50.080 --> 0:07:50.600 think he was. 0:07:50.560 --> 0:07:53.200 Swiss, Okay, because I know she live there for she was. 0:07:53.520 --> 0:07:56.920 I think he was German. And you got a job 0:07:57.120 --> 0:07:59.920 in Switzerland and they moved there, and then she bought 0:08:00.120 --> 0:08:02.800 the chateau in the south of FRANCEA but whatever the 0:08:02.840 --> 0:08:05.600 case was, what I loved that she found in her life, 0:08:05.600 --> 0:08:07.960 which is the most important. I know y'all think it's 0:08:08.000 --> 0:08:12.000 money and fame success. I promise you that having somebody 0:08:12.040 --> 0:08:14.680 to love you, that you can depend on and you 0:08:14.720 --> 0:08:17.120 could talk to, because killa talk is the greatest talk 0:08:17.120 --> 0:08:20.000 in the world, that is so important to have that 0:08:20.120 --> 0:08:22.560 comfortability level. And y'all know, I'll talk about love like. 0:08:22.600 --> 0:08:24.360 I ain't called me in love, but I do love 0:08:24.400 --> 0:08:26.960 that I have somebody that looks after me, that I 0:08:27.120 --> 0:08:29.400 trust and I leave her when I need to. She 0:08:29.560 --> 0:08:31.640 had that after all the abuse that she went through 0:08:31.680 --> 0:08:35.480 with another partner, and then whatever the ups and downs 0:08:35.520 --> 0:08:37.840 of her career, in her life, she found somebody that 0:08:37.880 --> 0:08:40.240 gave her joy to the end. That is always a 0:08:40.280 --> 0:08:40.800 good thing. 0:08:41.000 --> 0:08:43.920 Yeah, in peace. She died with her family around her, 0:08:43.960 --> 0:08:46.800 and she was just at peace. And it also shows 0:08:46.800 --> 0:08:49.640 you that you know, you have to take care of yourself, 0:08:49.679 --> 0:08:52.040 because I swear that half of the stress that she 0:08:52.160 --> 0:08:56.800 had led to some of those those medical conditions. You know, 0:08:56.840 --> 0:08:58.800 it's just it's awful, but she was. She's going to 0:08:58.880 --> 0:09:00.319 be sorely missed. Sure. 0:09:01.080 --> 0:09:03.320 She was a twice twice inductive to the Rock and 0:09:03.400 --> 0:09:06.520 Roll Hall of Fame. She's going to be she will 0:09:06.559 --> 0:09:08.040 go on forever, and I love that they have been 0:09:08.040 --> 0:09:10.920 playing so many tributes. I think Beyonce did a tribute 0:09:10.960 --> 0:09:13.160 for her on one of her shows, and they've been 0:09:13.160 --> 0:09:15.560 playing her on soultoime, on serious radio. They have just 0:09:15.600 --> 0:09:18.320 turned it into a Tina turning station. I have heard 0:09:18.400 --> 0:09:20.480 songs by Tina that I had never heard that I love. 0:09:20.760 --> 0:09:24.800 I listened to Sam Cook's rendition. 0:09:24.600 --> 0:09:26.280 Of I love that, I love that. 0:09:26.400 --> 0:09:30.400 Yeah. I listened to Our Boy by the Real and 0:09:30.520 --> 0:09:32.839 I had never heard Tina's version. I thought it was great. 0:09:33.160 --> 0:09:35.280 But they played the Game of Love by Santana. That's 0:09:35.320 --> 0:09:37.080 my favorite song, Aby Team that I loved to get 0:09:37.080 --> 0:09:39.280 me a little bit, and I love my man in 0:09:39.360 --> 0:09:42.600 Ohio by outside doing the show. 0:09:43.679 --> 0:09:45.080 Did you come out like that at all? 0:09:45.720 --> 0:09:48.240 I came out of Tina. I came on this show. 0:09:48.320 --> 0:09:50.760 They went ag. I think the white people were still screaming. 0:09:50.760 --> 0:09:52.319 I think they was. They were looking at one of 0:09:52.360 --> 0:09:55.720 those hologram that was so much like Tina. 0:09:55.760 --> 0:09:57.480 Oh my god, and that white dress that you have 0:09:57.920 --> 0:09:59.360 that's like perfection. 0:09:59.120 --> 0:10:02.720 Rights, little booty shaking dress. But yeah, rest in peace 0:10:02.760 --> 0:10:04.640 to the great late great tending. We're losing so many 0:10:04.720 --> 0:10:06.720 of the greats. But I love the fact that that 0:10:06.920 --> 0:10:11.320 Dash from ninth, from nineteen thirty nine to twenty twenty three, 0:10:11.640 --> 0:10:14.240 that Dash was a roller coaster of love for her. 0:10:14.320 --> 0:10:16.760 She went up and down, and when she did go up, 0:10:17.080 --> 0:10:19.400 she went to the stratus fifteen. It was the biggest 0:10:19.400 --> 0:10:21.240 star at one point in time of anyone. 0:10:22.480 --> 0:10:25.000 Absolutely, And now she's I mean, if you believe in 0:10:25.040 --> 0:10:29.120 an afterworld, she's with her baby. You know he died 0:10:29.520 --> 0:10:30.520 five or six years ago. 0:10:30.760 --> 0:10:32.640 Cause you know I didn't get in. I will sit 0:10:32.720 --> 0:10:34.800 on the outside house and this bullshit, why I ain't 0:10:34.800 --> 0:10:37.160 get in smoking a cigarette outside of her, I couldn't 0:10:37.200 --> 0:10:37.440 get in. 0:10:40.120 --> 0:10:43.480 No, he's got your little purgatory time with us. Catholic said, 0:10:43.480 --> 0:10:45.680 you got to do your time, a little purgatory time. 0:10:46.280 --> 0:10:51.600 I'm scared of purgatory. I ain't got no fan. Rest 0:10:51.600 --> 0:10:53.600 in peace to the late Gray tender Turner. The ladies. 0:10:53.679 --> 0:10:56.040 You know, we all loved her. America loves her, Europe 0:10:56.040 --> 0:10:58.160 loved her. I think people just loved her in general. 0:10:58.240 --> 0:11:00.800 She was just a force of powerhouse of a person 0:11:01.400 --> 0:11:03.719 in China and a woman. So yeah, and. 0:11:03.679 --> 0:11:06.360 We love as Americans, we love an underdog We love 0:11:06.400 --> 0:11:10.199 anybody that's that's fought back from adversity and and gone 0:11:10.200 --> 0:11:13.000 on and done well and bring people along, you know. 0:11:13.080 --> 0:11:15.800 So she was again, she just was. She was a 0:11:15.840 --> 0:11:17.160 one in a million, that's for sure. 0:11:18.760 --> 0:11:21.320 And also, well, that was the death of a legend. 0:11:21.320 --> 0:11:23.400 Now let's talk about the birth of a new legend, 0:11:23.679 --> 0:11:26.520 of a legend in the making, because this past weekend 0:11:27.000 --> 0:11:31.640 they had that live version of the The Mermaid. Did 0:11:31.640 --> 0:11:32.360 you see it? Bbby? 0:11:32.800 --> 0:11:34.600 I did see it, and you were just talking. I 0:11:34.640 --> 0:11:37.600 was thinking a couple of times, a couple of sentences 0:11:37.640 --> 0:11:39.200 you've already said. I was thinking that would be a 0:11:39.200 --> 0:11:42.560 perfect segue. That would be a perfect segue inclusion. So 0:11:42.720 --> 0:11:45.880 it wasn't just about having a little black girl as 0:11:45.880 --> 0:11:48.800 a mermaid the the I don't want to ruin it 0:11:48.840 --> 0:11:51.120 for people, but the family. So she know how, she's 0:11:51.120 --> 0:11:53.920 got sisters. You know, we've all seen the cartoon version. 0:11:54.280 --> 0:11:58.440 They're all different ethnicities. It's inclusive. Yeah, it's just she 0:11:58.720 --> 0:12:03.360 happened to be African American, but she has a Latina sister, 0:12:03.559 --> 0:12:06.200 she has an Indian sister, she has an Asian sister, 0:12:06.280 --> 0:12:09.040 she has a white sister. So I thought that was cool. 0:12:09.160 --> 0:12:11.160 I know, I know that, daddy, because I know a 0:12:11.200 --> 0:12:13.280 guy who got an Asian kid and a white kid 0:12:13.280 --> 0:12:19.480 and his name ain't Titan. But I know that daddy. 0:12:20.040 --> 0:12:22.320 Uh yeah, that that is what's great. And I love 0:12:22.360 --> 0:12:24.760 that they used Melissa McCarthy to play. 0:12:25.160 --> 0:12:26.040 She was terrific. 0:12:26.520 --> 0:12:29.000 I heard she was terrific. I heard she was and 0:12:29.360 --> 0:12:31.040 I never knew she could carry a tune. 0:12:31.120 --> 0:12:34.480 She you know, like what she is as good as 0:12:34.480 --> 0:12:36.600 the first note. But this is a girl who doesn't sing, 0:12:36.760 --> 0:12:39.800 so she must have had vocal lessons. And she put 0:12:39.800 --> 0:12:42.640 her own spin on it. You know, she she did it. 0:12:42.840 --> 0:12:46.520 It was pretty much word for word, but she put 0:12:46.520 --> 0:12:49.680 inflections that the original version didn't have. I thought she 0:12:49.800 --> 0:12:53.080 was absolutely incredible. I loved it. Each person did a 0:12:53.080 --> 0:12:55.400 great job. I think that we should have you be 0:12:55.640 --> 0:13:01.000 Sebastian's sister Crabb being like Sebastiana or so that's Genn 0:13:01.120 --> 0:13:01.600 you could. 0:13:01.600 --> 0:13:04.040 Oh no, let me tell you something. If I if 0:13:04.080 --> 0:13:06.360 I had any part, I had to be the big 0:13:06.440 --> 0:13:09.160 bitch that's in charge. I had to be Ursula. I 0:13:09.280 --> 0:13:09.720 wanted to be. 0:13:13.080 --> 0:13:15.400 I could see I could say, there's a character, Oh 0:13:15.480 --> 0:13:18.200 my god, what is is it? Scuttle? There's a there's 0:13:18.240 --> 0:13:21.240 a bird that's always got all the information and just 0:13:21.280 --> 0:13:24.320 flying in. I could see you as that too, cou. 0:13:24.280 --> 0:13:27.960 Know, I always get all the information, Bobby. I love 0:13:28.040 --> 0:13:30.319 the fact that there was so many doubting Thomas's and 0:13:30.360 --> 0:13:33.520 there was so much pushback because you know, this person 0:13:33.559 --> 0:13:36.400 played this character, this color played that character. That the 0:13:36.480 --> 0:13:39.120 movie broke box office records, made one hundred and seventeen 0:13:39.160 --> 0:13:41.920 million dollars open weekend. It's still making crazy money. It's 0:13:41.920 --> 0:13:42.880 getting great reviews. 0:13:43.040 --> 0:13:43.679 Oh my god. 0:13:43.800 --> 0:13:46.760 Yeah, we have to get things a chance. Everybody got 0:13:46.760 --> 0:13:48.800 an opinion about this, that and the third. But you 0:13:48.880 --> 0:13:50.440 have to get things a change. And I love that 0:13:50.440 --> 0:13:54.120 they proved all the doubting Thomas is wrong. I love that, Bobby. 0:13:54.400 --> 0:13:54.680 It was. 0:13:55.280 --> 0:14:00.239 It was so inclusive that the show almost made color 0:14:00.320 --> 0:14:04.400 in ethnicity. It went away. So the main character, the bull, 0:14:04.520 --> 0:14:06.160 isn't as terrible. I can't think of his name, but 0:14:06.200 --> 0:14:09.800 the prince, his mother was African American and he was white. 0:14:10.280 --> 0:14:12.040 It just if you were the best, you got the 0:14:12.120 --> 0:14:15.960 role period and it made us and you didn't see anything. 0:14:16.000 --> 0:14:18.280 You weren't looking for color. You were just looking for 0:14:18.320 --> 0:14:20.480 the characters. You were looking for them to do the job. Well, 0:14:20.760 --> 0:14:23.280 it was amazing. It was one hundred and eighty five million, 0:14:23.280 --> 0:14:26.800 almost one hundred and eighty six worldwide. Unbelievable. 0:14:27.200 --> 0:14:29.720 Yeah, that's pretty dope, and that is fantastic, and that 0:14:29.800 --> 0:14:31.760 it will open up the door for other movies for 0:14:31.800 --> 0:14:34.480 them to give other opportunities to people are not just color, 0:14:34.560 --> 0:14:38.800 but different ethnicities, different backgrounds, to say, hey, you may 0:14:38.800 --> 0:14:41.920 be an unknown or what have you, but we gonna 0:14:41.920 --> 0:14:44.000 give you did Like you said, whoever you did the 0:14:44.000 --> 0:14:46.720 best audition got the Yeah, that is what it should be. 0:14:46.760 --> 0:14:48.080 But so many things are off name. 0:14:49.240 --> 0:14:51.560 That's and I feel, I mean, that's how the world 0:14:51.560 --> 0:14:55.280 should be. Right. Whoever the best accountant is, whoever the 0:14:55.320 --> 0:14:59.080 best whatever, the best person and most qualified should get 0:14:59.080 --> 0:15:01.400 the position flung. We do have a little diversity because 0:15:01.400 --> 0:15:03.720 we need a little bit. People have different mindsets, so 0:15:03.760 --> 0:15:05.200 you want to have a little bit of everything, so 0:15:05.360 --> 0:15:06.240 you think of everything. 0:15:06.480 --> 0:15:09.480 The best host should always be claiming it's just the truth. 0:15:09.560 --> 0:15:15.200 Well, there you go, it's you'd be at It's. 0:15:15.040 --> 0:15:19.600 To Hollyberry and the cat all the cats. That congratulations 0:15:19.680 --> 0:15:24.720 from you guys. That was fantastic. Okay, Bobby, where were 0:15:24.760 --> 0:15:25.280 you going there? 0:15:26.120 --> 0:15:30.800 So? Unfortunately you were telling us about your phenomenal kickoff 0:15:30.800 --> 0:15:35.560 to the unofficial summer weekend. And there were there was 0:15:35.600 --> 0:15:41.040 a shooting at on Hollywood, Florida, on the beach, on 0:15:41.120 --> 0:15:42.800 the beach, well you know where else. There was a 0:15:42.800 --> 0:15:47.960 shooting Chicago, Revan, Massachusetts, just a few miles from where 0:15:48.000 --> 0:15:52.160 I live. I forgot two separate incidents where nobody died. 0:15:52.640 --> 0:15:56.440 But they had two separate incidents within an hour of 0:15:56.480 --> 0:16:00.800 each other. So not all with handguns. The kid pulling 0:16:00.800 --> 0:16:03.040 it out. Why they had it, they were all young. 0:16:03.520 --> 0:16:05.680 Why this is how we have to resolve an issue, 0:16:05.920 --> 0:16:09.480 I don't know. But the same as Hollywood, Florida. Hollywood 0:16:09.520 --> 0:16:12.040 had nine injuries and there were two men involved in 0:16:12.040 --> 0:16:14.680 that one. Four children were hit between the ages of 0:16:14.680 --> 0:16:18.120 one and seventeen, and then five adults between twenty five 0:16:18.160 --> 0:16:24.000 and sixty five. They said they the police got five 0:16:24.040 --> 0:16:28.160 handguns that were recovered. Two of them was stolen. And 0:16:28.240 --> 0:16:32.560 it happened at seven pm. Revere Masks and Revere Beach 0:16:32.720 --> 0:16:35.600 is the first public beach in the United States of America. 0:16:35.960 --> 0:16:38.120 And that's what it's, you know, that's what happened done 0:16:38.160 --> 0:16:39.440 on our beach here. 0:16:40.000 --> 0:16:42.960 Bullets. Bullets has no name when I was a kid 0:16:43.000 --> 0:16:45.480 when they would shoot doing the Fourth of July. We 0:16:45.520 --> 0:16:48.120 lived in the projects and they would shoot New Year's Eve. 0:16:48.440 --> 0:16:50.920 We would have to get in the bathtub or get 0:16:50.960 --> 0:16:53.800 between the walls because they were My grandmother would always say, 0:16:53.800 --> 0:16:57.280 bullets ain't got no name. Unfortunately I was the early seventies. 0:16:57.320 --> 0:16:59.440 Look where we are now. Bullets does not have a name. 0:16:59.600 --> 0:17:02.800 You go out here recklessly shooting at whoever you mad at, 0:17:02.880 --> 0:17:05.040 or whoever you feel like. They cross shoe would have it, 0:17:05.400 --> 0:17:07.679 and you don't, and you're not trained. You don't know 0:17:07.720 --> 0:17:10.680 how to use weapons. Ronce have kickback. You shoot a gun, 0:17:10.840 --> 0:17:12.960 you never hit the intended target, but you hit the 0:17:13.000 --> 0:17:15.840 herson close to or close proximity because you have no training. 0:17:16.359 --> 0:17:18.880 That is, I want them to remove some of these 0:17:18.880 --> 0:17:20.600 guns off the street. But I'm more mad than these 0:17:20.640 --> 0:17:23.000 people are just reckless with it, that damn it. If 0:17:23.000 --> 0:17:25.160 you're going to add a building, even if it's illegal, 0:17:25.359 --> 0:17:27.120 can't your ask to the gun range and at least 0:17:27.200 --> 0:17:29.600 learn how to use this weapon. You may kill your 0:17:29.640 --> 0:17:32.040 your own kid or your own mama just because you 0:17:32.119 --> 0:17:34.240 don't know what the weapon in your hand will do. 0:17:34.800 --> 0:17:39.280 Because they're one twenty percent right, and one of these 0:17:39.280 --> 0:17:41.880 shootings they actually that happened at reve Or Beach. They 0:17:41.960 --> 0:17:44.560 had somebody was filming it. I think they were just 0:17:44.640 --> 0:17:47.399 filming because there was a disagreement and they could see it. 0:17:48.080 --> 0:17:50.360 The kid just raised the gun, put it in the air. 0:17:50.480 --> 0:17:53.040 He just shot a shooting flam just you didn't know. 0:17:53.359 --> 0:17:55.720 He wasn't even pointing it at anybody. But it could 0:17:55.760 --> 0:17:57.440 have gone into the buildings. It could have gone into 0:17:57.480 --> 0:17:59.280 a car, am other nursing, or a baby in the 0:17:59.359 --> 0:18:02.200 car because the hot night, because it was in the nineties, 0:18:02.359 --> 0:18:04.520 you know, so just trying to get a nice school breeze. 0:18:05.440 --> 0:18:07.560 Let me tell you what's so scary, Bobby, what's so 0:18:07.720 --> 0:18:12.240 fascinating to me? Now? My son, I tried to show 0:18:12.320 --> 0:18:16.359 him how to shoot. It's so comfortable playing the video 0:18:16.440 --> 0:18:18.720 games with the shooting. Oh he shoots and kills everything. 0:18:18.920 --> 0:18:21.720 But when I actually gave him the real weapon to 0:18:21.800 --> 0:18:24.960 put in his hand, he was petrified. I think there's 0:18:25.000 --> 0:18:28.359 a fascination with these kids when they you because of 0:18:28.480 --> 0:18:31.560 the video games and it's so real. But the real 0:18:31.680 --> 0:18:34.520 thing you don't realize you're not killing the character on 0:18:34.640 --> 0:18:36.760 the film, you're actually killing the person. 0:18:37.960 --> 0:18:38.960 Yeah, you're exactly. 0:18:39.119 --> 0:18:41.960 There is no there is no bridge in the middle 0:18:42.080 --> 0:18:44.680 to let you know reality from fiction. I don't. I 0:18:44.760 --> 0:18:46.359 think a lot of people just don't get that. I 0:18:46.680 --> 0:18:49.200 don't know. I'm not perfect. I don't know, but I 0:18:49.320 --> 0:18:50.520 just it seems so weird to me. 0:18:51.600 --> 0:18:53.159 It does with me too. And we don't even have 0:18:53.400 --> 0:18:55.080 like lots of lots of guns in Boston. I mean, 0:18:55.160 --> 0:18:57.000 of course we have guns, so I don't want people going, oh, 0:18:57.040 --> 0:18:59.800 you're full of it, but we don't. It's so hard 0:18:59.840 --> 0:19:03.960 to get a well, I should say, legalized guns, because 0:19:03.960 --> 0:19:06.400 it's so hard to get a license. But this kid 0:19:06.560 --> 0:19:09.800 just wasn't even it was so reckless. I don't know 0:19:09.880 --> 0:19:11.240 who in the world he thought he was shoot. I 0:19:11.280 --> 0:19:13.359 don't know if he even hit his intended target or 0:19:13.400 --> 0:19:15.520 if he hit other people. But three people were shot, 0:19:15.560 --> 0:19:17.200 and they had to go to the hospital, all of 0:19:17.280 --> 0:19:20.720 them none of them critical, thank god. But you know, 0:19:20.880 --> 0:19:22.560 I don't know how the people in Florida dead. I 0:19:22.600 --> 0:19:26.320 couldn't find an updated article that said that they were 0:19:26.400 --> 0:19:28.920 released or whatnot. But a one year old being shot, 0:19:29.000 --> 0:19:30.159 that's catastrophic. Here. 0:19:30.280 --> 0:19:32.359 I can't even I can't even attack Florida. I was 0:19:32.560 --> 0:19:34.080 in as much as I you know, I love to 0:19:34.119 --> 0:19:36.600 go out to Florida. I can't because my home state, 0:19:36.760 --> 0:19:39.760 my hometown, Chicago, Illinois, was off the rails this weekend 0:19:40.200 --> 0:19:43.760
