Episode Transcript

(00:00):
Do you know what I should havedone? I should have played some jazz.

(00:04):
Do you have jazz qued up?You got some jazz? Boy?
I did have some, and thenall this weather, I got rid of
the tab. I do some livejazz. No no, no, no
no no no no no no nono no no no no thanks. That's
what the people. No. It'sInternational Jazz Day. I don't need you
to be improvising here. What kindof jazz do you want? Emery song?
I want the Utah Jazz to getgood at basketball again. That's what
I want. Yeah, well they'rekind of tanking right now. Yeah,

(00:27):
we'll give it a couple of years. Uh. Speaking of which, did
you see that Lebron's out of theplayoffs. Lebron loses with the Lakers,
and Brian Windhorse, who's made acareer of covering Lebron, essentially says he
thinks he's out, like he's gonnatest free agency and he's gonna see where
he's gonna go. Whenever said he'sgoing to test free agency. That's interesting.
You think he leaves. You thinkhe leaves the Lakers at this late
stage of his career. You thinkhe's going to get into the free agency

(00:49):
and see if somebody actually drafts hisson when we all know his son is
not NBA caliber, where would hego? Two guys or three guests of
the first two don't count. Okay, where Oh you're talking to me?
Yeah, you guess. Well,some people said Warriors, Now get out
of here with that. That's whatearlier in the season people were sat,
he might want to join up withat the Warriors. You know what,
he could literally never show his facein the Jordan argument. Ever, again,

(01:11):
if he does that, that isso weak. So he's not going
to go to an already built team. I think there is an already built
team that makes a lot of sensefor him. If he's able to go
there, then well how does that? How does that work for the Jordan
argument? Well, it's just notjoining with a legacy team. Already Golden
State's already a legacy team. Buthim like piggybacking with Steph Curry to win
one last title? Potentially, whatif he fails? How stupid would that

(01:33):
be? I think it's more likelyKevin Durant forces his way out of Phoenix
and goes back there. Kevin Durantthe world's he is the bandwagon least valuable
superstar. He is the rated,the most valuable player. He is the
LVP every single year. Kevin Durantempty stats on an empty stomach. Yeah,
you tell him, go after Hi, Matt. I am no fan
of Kevin Durant. I will singhis Uh. What's the opposite of praise?

(01:59):
Is because he didn't go to theNicks when he's a free agent the
first time. No, I wasglad for that. No, you get
him. I don't like the guy. I don't like his number. Thirty
five. Get that out of here. What's wrong with thirty five? I
don't know. I just don't likeit. It annoys me. Well,
he warren him for seven in theBrooklyn that's the same number as Carmelo World
Nick. It looks bad in thehead band too. Oh geez, you
know what he's got my posture.He's out there hunched over with my posture

(02:22):
playing basketball. I don't like it. The slim reaper is what they call
him. Yeah. How many Burneraccounts has he got active? Yeah?
Right, that's another thing he'll neverlive down right. Yeah. I was
thinking Cleveland for Lebron. Oh yeah, I guess you know they're kind of
one piece away. You know,if they can keep everybody together, maybe
like take one of the big guys. We have a couple of big guys.

(02:42):
Take one of the big guys out, put lebron in. I think
you can make that work. Ifeel like that story's over though. Stop.
I'd rather do that than him goto Golden State. How did we
start talking about this again? Idon't know, because I brought up jazz
and then you said Utah Jazz andbasketball or whatever. Maybe he goes to
the Utah Jazz. Yeah, yeah, yeah, so that is Yeah,
it's interesting. I don't think soyou want to talk about a team that's

(03:06):
far away. If the Utah liketrades up to take Bronnie James, then
that's maybe a chance for and Lebron'slike, oh, come on, man,
that would be hilarious, Like where'sthe last place he would want to
go? And they go all inon getting Bronny just because that's what he
said he'd do. He'd go whereverBronnie played. Hilarious. You know,
the NBA fixed that up so it'dbe a spot lebron be happy and come

(03:27):
on. Anyway, we were talkingabout the news today. It's four thirty
nine. Emory Songer here with youwere paying attention to, like the severe
weather, but for the most part, that is outside of the metro area.
Just a little bit to the northeast, like Matt was saying, and
just a bit to the southeast inNebraska, straight south of where we're located
in Omaha. But it's pretty downsouth end there those four very small counties
of Pawnee, Johnson, Niamaha,and Richardson. And that's going to be

(03:52):
going until five thirty. Is thatwhen that is the southeastern Nebraska counties Johnson,
Nimaha, Pawnee, and Richardson.Yeah, so John's, Nima,
how Hani and Richardson until five thirtysevere thunderstorm warning. Actually Nimahan Richardson continues,
never mind, you're right, yeah, I gotta here, I gotta
here. Five thirty, that's right, yep, yep, there you go.
And then severe thunderstorm warning going onuntil five for Montgomery and pot of

(04:14):
Watame. Is that strong storm kindof moves out of the area as well,
and then a severe thunderstorm morning toour northeast in Shelby County. So
there you go. The big thinggoing on is for me, the big
hullabaloo about all the kids breaking intoHamilton Hall at Columbia's campus. Instead of
heaving the warning and being potentially suspendedif they don't disperse by Columbia University,

(04:36):
these kids decided to get all riledup, go crazy, get themselves going
on to escalating their little protests.And now they are occupying one of the
buildings on campus and apparently broke windowsand broke doors just to get in there.
And now they're locking themselves in andnobody else can get in there.
Matt, I see you a pieceof audio here from something that I've seen

(04:57):
over the last couple of hours thatpopped up the protesters here and here is
a Columbia student after she makes somedemands and she is going to be questioned
here by some reporters outside of HamiltonHall. Again, students actively vandalized and
occupy, are broken so they canoccupy this building after being under the threat

(05:18):
of potentially being suspended, and nowthey're being told they're going to be expelled
while they continue to negotiate, andthey want amnesty before they leave, which
is hilarious. Well, here issome audio from one of these students.
Take a listen to this, Whyshould the university be obligated to provide food
to people who've taken over a building. Well, first of all, we're

(05:41):
saying that they're obligated to provide foodto students who pay for a meal plan
here. But you mentioned that theywere the requested that food and water be
brought in unless to allow it tobe brought in. I mean, well,
I guess it's ultimately a question ofwhat kind of community and obligation Columbia
feels it has to its students.Do you want students to dive to hydration
and starvation or get severely ill evenif they disagree with you. If the

(06:03):
answer is no, then you shouldallow basic I mean it's crazy to say
because we're on an Ivy League campus, but this is like basic humanitarian aid
we're asking for, Like could peopleplease to have a glass of water?
They didn't put themselves in that verydeliberate in that situation and in that position.
So it seems like you're sort ofsaying, we want to be revolutionary,

(06:25):
so we want to take up thisbuilding. Now, would you please
bring us food and water? Nobody'sasking them to bring anything. Every We're
we're asking them to not violently stopus from bringing in basic humanitarian aid.
They're stopping the delivery of food.We are looking for a commitment from them
that they will not stop it.By having stopped it. Well, I

(06:45):
don't, I'm not. I don'tknow to what extent it has been attempted,
but we're looking for a commitment.I hate these people. They're asking,
they're asking Columbia estate out of theway so they can get door dashed
delivered to Hamilton Hall while they're occupyingit. It's like the kids that decided

(07:05):
they wanted to raid the counselor's cabinwhen they're on a summer camp, and
then when they locked themselves in there, they realized that they didn't bring their
sandwiches. So now they're like tryingto get somebody to help bring them food
and sneak in and bring them food. And they don't want Columbia to interfere
so they can get their food intheir water because they need humanitarian aid.
Now that they're inside Hamilton Hall.Can you believe these people and they want

(07:29):
amnesty, not only please don't interferewith our door dash coming into the building
that we have violently overtaken in ourprotests and are now occupying and not letting
anybody else in. But also,please give us amnesty otherwise we won't stop
what we're doing, Like meet allof our demands. Oh, and don't
give us any consequences for what we'vedone. These people are insane. These
are twenty two year olds that reada book thought they could be legitimately impactful

(07:53):
in the world by doing what they'redoing right now, and it's literally ruining
their entire college experience and they willhave accomplished nothing at the end, Like
this is a story that they're goingto tell their grandkids if they ever have
any. Maybe by that point they'llall be like robot grandkids, Like who
knows, and they're gonna be like, hey, shinny gush what I did
back in the day. I stoodup to that Palestine and I told old

(08:15):
Columbia University where they could stick it. You know what I mean, what
the heck, man, what arewe doing here? It's basic humanitarian aid
that you locked yourself in a buildingthat wasn't yours on campus and you didn't
think to bring sandwiches or anything likethat. You guys are crazy, man,
You're crazy. I'm I'm having ahard time even, like, like
I didn't feel sorry for these peopleto begin with, but I definitely don't

(08:37):
feel sorry for him now. Andyou know what, I'd like to think
that people that are going to placeslike Columbia are really smart and they've gone
a few levels of extension of likeacademia that I was willing to go and
try really hard to be good,and they want to be like really important
people in society, and all that'sgoing to be on these people's records.
Yeah, I got expelled from Columbiabecause I overtook one of the halls and

(08:58):
got hungry. What are we doinghere? Justin's on our phone line A
four h two five five, eighteleven ten, Justin, thanks for the
call today. What do you thinkabout this? Hey, thanks for taking
my call. You know, it'sfunny because actually what I think about is
what the girl said at the beginning, which is basically, hey, well,
we have a food plan here atthe university. So they weren't even
at first talking about bringing their ownfood. They expected it to be provided

(09:20):
as part of their demands. Butthat's true. Once they got once they
got questioned a little, it's like, well, we at least want to
be able to bring our own food. They haven't attended, no, but
but they want a commitment made byColumbia. These these these crazy Columbia faculty
that have basically enabled them to dotheir little protest for the last two weeks.
They need the evil people at thetop of Columbia to allow their door

(09:43):
dash to get into the building.I mean, you can't make this up
justin it's actually happening. It's thisis this is where we're at today.
Yes, it's unfortunate, it's crazy. Thanks for the call, man,
appreciate you listening. Toe Yeah,uh, Matt case You you're a guy
that went to college once once ortwice or six times. Did you ever

(10:03):
expect your faculty at your school toprovide you with anything or did you just
kind of expect, Well, Ipay for some of this stuff and it's
just kind of on me to doit well on what terms? Do you
mean? Like when I had ameal plan of college, they didn't deliver
anything to me, They didn't bringme anything. If I didn't go to
the food hall and get my food, I wasn't eating that day. That's
a good point, you know whatI mean? Right? And they're right.
They're occupying this place that they brokeinto, and they don't want to

(10:26):
leave because if they leave, thenguess what did they give up the building?
And now they have a spokesperson whois outside. I'm afraid to call
it or her, because she seemslike one of those people that's just like,
hey, that's not who I am. You don't identify me by what
I look like. But you know, they're outside, and there's a guy
behind her wearing like a scarf anda crop top. It's a dude,

(10:48):
it looks like with a beard.I wish Hamas could see who's protesting for
them. You think that guy couldlast in the Middle East supporting Hamas wearing
what he's wearing right now. Imean they would probably just like they would
throw him. I mean they'd laughat him first of all, but then
yeah, I mean, he wouldn'tlast five seconds because they don't. They
don't like people like this. Butthat's what's great about America. He can
wear that good on. You doyour thing. They don't let you do

(11:11):
your thing over there. And that'sthe funny part is that he's they're protesting
very anti American sentiments while they're they'redoing all this. Oh and please Columbia
say out of the way. Weneed our door dash or we need somebody
to be able to bring us foodhaul food because you know, we pay
for a meal plan. Even thoughwe have actively and violently taken over this

(11:31):
building overnight. These people are insanefour forty eight. If you have thoughts,
you can call us. Four ohtwo five five eight eleven ten four
two five five eight eleven ten.News Radio eleven ten kfab Scott Vories is
alongside Scott. Thank you so muchfor your help today. Appreciate all that
you do. It's what we do. On top of that, our phone
lines are open to you as well. Four oh two five five eight eleven
ten. Four oh two five fiveeight eleven ten And we got Gary on

(11:54):
the line. Gary, thanks forbeing a part of our show today.
What are you thinking about? Well, I was listening to you about the
college students that moved in and overtookthe building. Yeah, and I'd agree
with that. No, they reallydon't deserve food and water, but why
not go ahead and give them abunch of just plain cooked rice, no
utensils, and a couple of themjugs of water like you see in the

(12:18):
offices with water coolers and a coupleof tin cups, and they've got food
and water. I would imagine thatwould appall them, that they'd have to
eat with their fingers and share acup of water. Oh yeah, and
you know these are more affluent kids, Gary, These are kids that never
had to work for anything in theirlife. That's how they got themselves there.
Wade emailed me, Gary, youknow like this, he said,

(12:39):
I think there is a Jewish deliin New York City somewhere that could provide
some food for them. Wonder ifthey would take that, that'd work too,
But no, I really think thatthe plane right, you know,
so they have to live like someof the other people have to live once
and a why yeah you want food? There's food, you know? Oh
you want you tensils? Well,what's wrong with your f right? I

(13:01):
mean it's it's pretty incredible, Gary, what they're asking. They overtook the
building and then they think the collegeis supposed to give them food. It's
pretty incredible. Appreciate you man,thanks for calling in and be a part
of the show. Okay, So, Scott, I don't know if you
saw the the the did did isthe video still up on your computer screen?
There from Twitter? Uh is?I don't I know. I didn't

(13:24):
prepare this, but there's a there'saudio we played if you missed it in
the back half of last hour,that just came across in the last couple
of hours while we were in themiddle of our weather update, and it's
audio from a young woman who isI can't assume these things right. It's
audio from a young student who appearsto be a young woman with glasses.

(13:48):
She's wearing one of these scarves thatI guess is you know, kind of
like their their battle uniform of protest. And she's basically just begging, or
she's not. She is saying ormaking demands in front of the press and
saying, we deserve to get foodbecause we paid for meal plans for Columbia,

(14:11):
so if we have a meal plan, we should have this. And
then a few reporters are like,hey, what you guys broke in and
are locking yourself into this building.What are you? What are you talking
about? We got Ralph on thephone line of four or two, five,
five, eight, eleven, ten, Ralph, what's on your mind
about all this? I think theyshould just smoke him out, throw some
tear gas in there, make themcry, make them feel the pain.

(14:33):
Let's see if they really are seriousabout yeah, what's going on in Gaza.
But Ralph, I'll be honest withyou, I think that there's these
kids would cry so quick in thatscenario, and then they would just say
it was a hate crime. It'sa it's a hate crime. You you
hurt me. Yeah, that's that'swhat we want. I want to smoke
them out. I don't know whythey don't just go in there with some

(14:54):
horses, Paton and you know,let's get out. Never do this again.
Well this is the next general,right. Well, the problem,
Ralph, is that they empowered themby letting them do this for two weeks
before they started getting serious, andnow that they got serious, the kids
are just taking more from them.I mean, it's making the whole university
look like a croc. Appreciate thecall, Ralph, thanks for being a
part of our show today. Allright, so we do have the audio

(15:15):
here. Yeah, I'm sorry.You know this is Matt occasionally has to
take off a little bit early fromEmory show because you know, Dipsticks isn't
going to run itself. Oh yeah, and he's got it. He's on
stage, yeah, dipsticks. Yeah, so he's got to get down there.
And so I just jumped in here, and I think I found what
you're looking for. Okay, yeah, let's fire away. This is a
student. I can only assume ayoung woman here. It's impossible to tell

(15:37):
these days. But and she istalking to the press outside of Hamilton Hall,
the building that Columbia students overtook violently, and now we're locking themselves into
last night. Why should the universitybe obligated to provide food to people who've
taken over a building. Well,first of all, we're saying that they're
obligated to provide food to students whopay for a meal plan here. But

(16:00):
you mentioned that there was a requestedthat food and water be brought in unless
I to allow it to be broughtin. I mean, well, I
guess it's ultimately a question of whatkind of community and obligation Columbia feels it
has to its students. Do youwant students to die of dehydration and starvation
or get severely ill, even ifthey disagree with you, If the answer

(16:21):
is no, then you should allowbasic I mean it's crazy to say because
we're on an Ivy League campus,but this is like basic humanitarian aid we're
asking for, like could people pleaseto have a glass of water? Oh,
they did put themselves in that verydeliberate thing, in that situation,
in that position, so it seemslike you're sort of saying, we want
to be revolutionary, so we wantto take up this building. Now,

(16:42):
would you please bring us food andwater? Nobody's asking them to bring anything.
Every We're asking them to not violentlystop us from bringing in basic humanitarian
aid. They're staffing the delivery offood. We are looking for a commitment
from them that they will not stopit by having sapped it. Well,

(17:02):
I don't know to what extent ithas been attempted, but we're looking for
a commitment. These people are sooff the rails here, they're so over
their skis. They are up acrick without a paddle. There is nothing
you could tell me. I mean, this particular person, I could imagine,
since she is being allowed to talkto the press, she is in

(17:23):
the know at least to a littlebit of what they are asking for,
at least as far as the protestinggoes. But she certainly has no idea
how the world works. And they'rejust asking and asking and taking and taking,
and they have no idea how thisworld works. And this is my
thing. There's also what I canonly assume is a young gentleman that's standing
behind her. He's got a beard, he's got a scarf that matches hers.

(17:45):
That I'm guessing is the team uniformfor them, showing off. They're
protesting and making them feel like there'ssome sort of Palestinian revolutionaries or something.
I have no idea. Neither ofthese people are Arab. But he's also
wearing a crop top. You cansee his belly button. I wonder how
that go if he met actual Hamasguys. On the phone line of four
two, John's on the line,John, you got some thoughts on these

(18:08):
people? Hello, Hey John,what do you got well, Samory,
Yes, sir, you're with me? Fire awhile, Okay, I love
your show. I've talked to youa couple of times. They've been uh
two terror Vietnam veteran. And I'mgonna tell you this, Okay, I
know you're gonna disagree with me,but and this with this outfit, with

(18:29):
these college kids taking over the dormsand whatever. Yeah, they need to
be removed with extreme prejudice. Andthis is the reason why, because this
is never going to stop until youstand up to a bully. And if
you ever were in high school,goal and you were bullied, Okay,
if you don't stand up to themand putch them back in the face,

(18:51):
sure they're never going to stop.Right Well, they don't stop, then
you didn't. This is enough enoughto know. I mean, I'm with
you, but John, this isa thing. Columbia dug their own grave
on this because they empowered them anddidn't do anything to get them off campus.
For two full weeks, it justgot more and more organized and out
of control. I don't feel butJohn, I don't feel bad for Columbia.

(19:12):
I really don't like at this point. Whatever happens to Colombia happens to
Columbia because they did this to themselves. And I understand it. I agree
with you on that. But ifthey want to set an example for the
rest of the country and the restof the universities, then go ahead and
do it. Kick them out,do it with extreme prejudice, and be

(19:33):
done with it, because if not, it's just going to continue to happen
over and over again. John,appreciate your thoughts as always, and thanks
for your service, my man.Really appreciate you for what you've done as
well throughout your military career. Reallyappreciate that. We'll continue to take your
phone calls at four h two fiveto five, eight eleven ten. If
you want to talk about these crazykids in Colombia here on news radio eleven
ten, kfab back to the Columbiakids who locked themselves into their Hamilton hall

(19:57):
or whatever, just like the olddays when nam was happening. Let's start
with Mary Mary's on her phone lineof four or two five five eight eleven
ten. Mary, what do youthink about this? Am I on?
You are here, yep, fireaway here we are well. To be
honest, if my kids were everto do something like that, my goodness,

(20:19):
if they get a scholarship right oryou know, I'm paying for their
college, yep, I would beso incredibly disappointed. Well, on top
of this, Mary, not onlyare they taking all that money and giving
it to Columbia, but now they'refacing expulsion so they won't even get a
chance to finish their degree. Soit was all for nothing at the end.
Of the day anyway, it's prettycrazy. But no, that's crazy.

(20:40):
Mary. I appreciate you calling inand being a part of our show
today. Let's go to Frank.Frank's on our phone line four two,
five, five, eight eleven ten. Frank, what's up hi there.
I have a diplomatic and very logicalsolution, and that is everybody's relying on
their phones. If they brought incell jammers like Target has all over the
country, you can't shop around whenyou're in the aisle of Target. If
they shut off all cell signal,they can't Twitter, they can't check their

(21:04):
phones or do anything. They'll gettired. They'll get tired and just walk
out and leave. Well, that'sa that's an interesting thought. I wonder
if that can be done on thefly like this. I'm sure they could
figure that out. Appreciate the call, Frank, Yeah, no, I
appreciate the call, Frank. It'sa it's an interesting idea. That's a
way to try to get him outof there. Let's go to a guy,

(21:25):
guys on the phone line. Guy, how's it going? Guy?
Oh? Great, great, niceweather. You know when you had a
two year old kid and he wouldn'tstop crying and begging because he wanted a
lollipop, over and over and overagain. You put him in his room,
you let him go in there,and you cried it out, and
you left him alone. Right,if they all left the parking lot,

(21:48):
if they all barricaded the building sothey couldn't get into the university itself,
let him have freewaying to get backout the front doors the way they came
in. But just leave him alone. They want the publicity they wanted to
escalate. They want to be ableto call you know, the US gestapos
or whatever. Sure. Yeah,And if you just left them alone,

(22:11):
let let them just sit in there. They've got to be getting hungry.
They got to be getting thirsty.Sooner or later, one by woman they
come out, then arrest them forcresspassing. Now, guy, I think
you're onto something there. I justknow that they're just basically looking to be
oppressed, like you mentioned, AndI find it fascinating that the attention that
they're getting is just kind of fulfillingtheir want or need for attention. Not

(22:34):
to say that there aren't people thattruly believe in the pro Palestinian way or
people who believe in anti Israel stuffand sentiments and all that, but a
lot of them are there because ofthe action that it is occurring around it.
Stay on the line, Alex,Phil, Marie, everybody on the
line calling in right now. FourO two, five, five eight eleven
ten. Will continue our conversation aboutthese lunatic students at Columbia University. Next

(22:56):
on News Radio eleven ten. Kfabback to the phone line as we continue
our conversation about those crazy, wildand crazy kids over there at Columbia University.
You lock themselves into Hamilton Hall andnow are complaining because they don't have
any food. I know, it'sa sad story. Phil is on our
phone line. Phil, thanks somuch for holding me in on a part
of our show today. What's onyour mind on this? I guess I'm

(23:18):
going to be mean about it becauseI think they had a block off.
Go ahead and cut the power tothe place, Go ahead and put those
high beam lights on the building,Blastberry Manilow, and then wait till they
come out, arrest them, andthen you go in and you record everything
that was done to inside the buildingand release that. Yeah, no,

(23:41):
it makes sense, Phil. They'redoing everything they can to stay important and
relevant on a national level, andwe're giving them that attention. But at
the same time they look like idiots, like worse and worse on the very
Manilow front. I think starships webuilt this city would be a more effective
torture device that that worked good too. I mean, let's go back to
what it was. Phil, Thisis good. Thanks for calling man.

(24:03):
Appreciate you being a part of theshow. Marie's on the line, Marie,
thank you for being on the show. You with Emory on news Radio
eleven ten kfab I am, Marie, That's exactly what I was thinking.
It's considered a hostage situation. They'vetaken the building hostage cut, the power
cut, the water cut, theheat cut everything, it's hot in there
for the air conditioning, everything,and eventually their devices are going to run
out, and then they're gonna gettired of sitting in a dark, stinky

(24:26):
building with no water, no lights, and then they'll just have to give
up. There's no choice. Welland then go ahead, Marie, go
ahead. Well, I was justgonna say, well, I mean,
it's interesting because this has already beengoing on for two weeks, and you
know, I think they're worried abouttheir door dash getting intercepted by Columbia University,
who's done nothing but coddle them forthe last couple of weeks, you

(24:47):
know what I mean. So,yeah, Columbia, they were outside for
the last two weeks. Now they'reinside. But Marie, what I'm saying
though, is that as far asColumbia is concerned, they just let them
be there. And so you know, it's interesting that Colombia now all of
a sudden, is being they thinkColombia is the bad guys because they might
intercept their door dash. You knowwhat I mean, Like not only idiots

(25:08):
about this, We're going to expelyou. That's like saying you're grounded.
Sure, yeah, you're you're You'reright, Marie, I mean at this
point, I mean, like,is that the worst that could possibly happen?
And what they've done over the lastcouple of weeks, I appreciate you
call it in, Marie. Alwaysfun to talk to you. Let's go
to Steve. Steve's on our phoneline of four two, five, five,
eight eleven ten. Steve, whatdo you think about these crazy kids?

(25:29):
Well? I used to live upthere, so you know, I
think they are crazy kids. ButI would say, you know, much
like your previous schollar said, Ijust cut the water, Just cut the
water, just shut the water off. Right, They'll be coming out into
the hands of police who will arrestthem. And that could be campus police.
It doesn't have to be New YorkCity police, right, you know,

(25:52):
they do have campus police. Yeah. And this is the thing,
Steve, is what we saw atTexas and like you and c and some
of the places, is when lawenforcement showed up and was, like forcibly
trying to like take the kids.That made it a more dangerous situation.
What these kids of Columbia have donehas actually made it a lot easier because
now you can just catch them asthey're coming out of the building. You
don't have to chase anybody, youknow what I mean. So they kind

(26:15):
of did have their work for you. Yeah. Well, I do think
that the police should be you know, I hate to say this, that
they should be armed. You don'tknow, oh right, no, anyone
totally, If anyone inside of theirsarmed or not. The campus police are
allowed, well I don't know oneuniversity I taught at they weren't allowed to
be armed. But sure in someplaces they are and you can have back

(26:36):
up from the local police. Anddo you cut off the water ability coming
out there pretty quick? Definitely,Stee appreciate the call. Good thoughts today,
Let's go to Alex. Alex's nexton the phone lines. Alex,
you're with Emory Songer News Radio eleventen kfab Two quick things from one.
If you expel them, then theyshould lose the year's tuition and not be
able to have those points their credithours. Sure, but that's the major

(26:57):
thing that people are missing here.This reflects the object failure of the United
States education system. I mean,when I was in school, we learned
about Nazi Germany, we learned aboutthe Russian Revolution, we learned about milesse
tongue and junior high we learned thisstuff. We understood the history of the
Middle East and the Jewish people andwatching bodies being pushed into ditches by grape

(27:19):
by bulldozers. We saw all that. They don't teach that anymore, and
it's actually talk to history of theregion. They know the Jews have been
there for three thousand years, longbefore Islam even religion, and then in
the history of the area. Yeah, but Alex, you gotta remember Alex
as much since as you're making Alex. At the same time, you have

(27:41):
to remember that a lot like thereare agitators that came in to like start
this stuff, but half of thesekids have no idea why they're even there.
They're just being there because they thinkit's the cool thing to do.
It's like, it's like I wantto be a part of this and be
a part of history. But that'sthe point. They have not been taught
true history. They've been they've beenindoctrinated. Yeah, and when you look
at today, you know, youhave these major universities, these premierage interview

(28:06):
ninety five, so that the instructorsare liberal, they're Democrats. Oh yeah,
they're standing in solidarity with these kids. Yeah. No, I mean,
if you look at Columbia, Iappreciate Alex for the call. Uh.
If you look at Columbia and whenthey were kind of threatening to put
these kids in arrest, some ofthese kids, the faculty actually dressed up
in like orange vests and then we'relike protecting them with the wall. It's

(28:29):
like, wow, way to goteach. You're you're living vicariously through these
kids when you know you wish youwould have been born just a few years
younger, so you could have beena part of those nineteen sixty eight protests
as part of nine. These peopleyou just love them. They just love
to riley up and act like they'rethe victims. Somehow. We'll get to
more of these calls if you wantto call us four h two five,
five, eight eleven ten, anddude, want to give you an update
on the weather just real quick.That tornado warning in Richardson County, Nebraska

(28:52):
has now been canceled, so thatis no longer a thing to keep an
eye on. And as we mentioned, that tornado watch has been kind of
uh moving out of the area,at least as far as we're concerned.
They have now completely removed Cass Countyfrom that from that map, so just
the very southeast corner of Nebraska andthen Potawatamee County and south of there is
still a part of that tornado watchthrough ten PM tonight. More on the

(29:17):
way with this conversation next four htwo five five, eight, eleven,
ten, five forty five on NewsRadio eleven ten, KFA based institution many
believed to be one of the eliteinstitutions of higher learning in our country,
Columbia, and Colombia has a groupof of their little protesters that have now
broken in and taken over a buildingcalled Hamilton Hall. It's the same building
that they do say in the reports, that was taken over by students in

(29:40):
nineteen sixty eight as part of theprotests that went on for Vietnam and civil
rights. All right, well,fifty six years later, here we are
reliving history with their grandkids and enjoyingthis conversation of these kids that have taken
over a building but are complaining thatColombia has not given them food even though
they have taken over their building violently. Mark's on our phone line at four

(30:02):
O two five five, eight eleventen, and Mark, what do you
think about all this? Hey,emyt? I got two quick comments and
I got a question, and we'llgo from there. Okay, Number one,
play stupid games, win stupid prizes. I mean, yeah, they
need to be expelled. And mynext question is could this is this considered

(30:25):
an insurrection? Well, that's that'san interesting thing there, Uh Mark,
I think you know, it dependson which political party you ask that too.
I think because they are they aredoing this against the school, right,
which is the which is the thing. So I would consider it an
insurrection against the school. It's possible, mark and insurrection as far as you

(30:47):
know, like the Constitution to beconcerned, would be involved specifically with like
government buildings, and the college iskind of in jurisdiction with itself on that.
But uh, I mean as faras what an insurrection is, yeah,
I mean it is. It's justwhether or not the government or law
enforcement would enforce it as such.But that's an interesting, interesting angle to
take on it, that's for sure. James is on our phone line of

(31:08):
four h two five five, eighteleven ten. Hello James, what do
you think about this? Oh?Well, I almost could get flashbacks because
John or whoever he was earlier,the Vietnam veteran. Well, I'm one
of those people too, and Iremember what it was like when I came
home. It wasn't very pleasant.And according to what a job counselor told

(31:29):
me, I was in grad school. He said that whatever I wanted to
do, don't tell anybody I wasever in the service, say I was
on the road for five years becauseand he explained that these people were students,
some of them, but they wereindoctrinated with some of this same sort
of left wing attitude, and thatthey were going to be infiltrating our schools

(31:51):
and teaching the next generation. Wellthat's roughly what happened. Well, yeah,
James, and this is interesting.First of all, thank you so
much for your service. And it'sa really interesting point that he makes there.
Our Vietnam veterans did not get thankedfor any of the things they did,
and it was completely out of theirown control and it's just their association
with the military. But for usto think that this is a new thing,

(32:13):
though, that left wing and doctrination, if you will, at these
elite institutions, These students want that, I mean, and then they grow
out of it because guess what,who elected Reagan twice. It was a
lot of people that took part inthe hippie movements when they were in their
teens and twenties, you know whatI mean. People change their priorities,
change, things change, and that'swhy we still have a balance in conservative
values versus liberal values. But atthe same time, this is not a

(32:36):
new thing for this far left radicaltype ideologies to be permeating at our elite
institutions. Let's get to Danny realquick. Danny, thanks for the call
today. You're with Emory on newsradio eleven t in kfab. Hey.
Hello, I'm like a lot ofthese other guys, I'm an Afghan bet
I'm also a retired school teacher.I've got a question about the building.
If it closes at a certain timeeach day, would that not be trespassing?

(32:59):
Yeah? I think that's what aregoing to get him on, Danny.
I think that no matter what,they're going to get a trespassing a
citation. But they definitely are settingthemselves for expulsion at the very least.
Either way, for sure, Ithink they it would be at this point.
It just depends on how Columbia's codeis written. Okay, can the
police tell them you have twelve hoursor ten hours? The school has to
do it. But yeah, theschool has to do that. But if

(33:21):
the school does it, they canuse police to enforce that. Yeah.
Okay, yeah, I think wefind them, we take them to jail,
we charge them with whatever damage they'vedone, and expel them. If
for sure that's what needs to happen. But sure, thank you very much.
Yeah, thanks Andy, appreciate it. One last call let's get to
Mike. Mike, what do youthink about all this? Yeah, hey,
listen, Emory, I really enjoyyour show. I'm just calling in

(33:42):
reference to a previous caller. Ihappen to be a public school so studies
teacher, and we actually do teachsome of the things, at least at
the secondary school level that he's saying. We don't. Maybe it changes when
they get to college, but weactually teach the real history of the United
States. That's good to hear,because, you know what, you just
never know with some of the waysthat these people grow up and think,

(34:05):
and some people don't get a chanceto think for themselves when they're in their
formative years. Mike, appreciate thecall. Thank you so much for what
