Speaker 1 (00:00):
So I this is up. You already know well you
sent me this story I think this morning. This is
one of the ones that you sent in your uh
your morning stuff email. Correct. I don't know. You've kind
of heard where I'm going on this already. Do you
do you want to correct my course? Or are we
in the same same mindset here?
Speaker 2 (00:20):
I used to do this when I was a kid. Yeah,
but there's more to the story that should be elaborated
on than just ringing a doorbell and running away.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
Apparently more is there more to the story than what
is in what you sent me?
Speaker 2 (00:38):
No, I mean in the story, I mean somebody they
thought it was a a break in and somebody it
sounded like somebody who's kicking in the door. So there's
a little more nuanced than what people are hearing if
they haven't heard this story before, where ding dong ditch
and somebody gets shot.
Speaker 1 (00:55):
Last night, I was griping about, you know, the children's
services situation, and they've been involved in a child was
still dead. Nonetheless, and this actually kind of falls into
the same category. It's a different world. It is a
very different world, and we've got a man who is
I don't know if he has been tried yet or not.
(01:19):
But you'll recall about a year ago a woman came
to his house. She was an uber driver or a
lyft driver or something like that, who thought she was
picking up a package. And the old man had been
receiving these harassing calls and somebody was going to come
to the house and shoot him or whatever. And he
(01:41):
comes out and he's scared, and she won't cooperate and
he ends up shooting her, and he was going to
face charges. This basically, this terrified old man. You know,
I'm not happy that this woman was shot. I absolutely not.
But we want to make excuses for everybody in society.
Every time bad guys intentionally do bad stuff, there's somebody
(02:04):
wants to come up with an excuse. Now you've got
just a terrified old white guy and this black woman
pulls up in his driveway after he's been told somebody's
coming to hurt you, shoot you, steal fort whatever, and
he takes action, thinking he is defending himself against a
threat that is coming. And it turns out that it
(02:26):
was all a hoax. It was just somebody playing some
stupid game on both of these people. There was no
package for her to pick up and there was nobody
coming to hurt him, but they put them in there
and they let this happen. Those people, those people that
made those calls, created that situation, are far more culpable
than that old man is as far as I'm concerned.
(02:47):
But the world being the sick, twisted place that it is,
and people want to do everything on YouTube and TikTok
and get famous for creating chaos and havoc, that's what
causes things like this. Now, this story comes from TikTok,
and this is not again, It's a different world where yeah,
knocking on the door and running, or ringing the doorbell
(03:07):
and running, or making a phone call and hanging up,
and you know that stuff. The world was not filled
with crazy people to do insane things back when you
were doing that, Zach. Today it is and people are scared.
And I've been saying this over and over. It's going
to get worse. People are tired of bad people doing
(03:31):
bad stuff and getting away with it. They are scared
to go outside, they're scared to go to the parking
lot from the grocery store. They got to have the
head on the squad constantly looking around quiet Virginia suburb
turning deadly when an eighteen year old high school senior
was shot while filming with friends on prom day. What
(03:52):
started as a ding dong ditch for social media ended
with an arrest for second degree murder. Reports The Washington
Post equaled. Bosworth, Junior, and two others had been filming themselves,
knocking on strangers doors and fleeing around three a m. Saturday,
(04:12):
when a resident opened the door after an emergency call
about a possible break in the Spotsylvania. I guess I've
never heard a spots Sylvania County Sheriff's Office said the
incident took place near Fredericksburg. Bosworth, who was two weeks
I'm sorry, was weeks from graduation and said to attend
the prom later on Saturday, was shot in the torso
(04:34):
died at the hospital. Another team was also wounded. Sheriff's
office arrested Tyler Chase Butler, twenty seven, charging him with
second degree murder, malicious wondering, and use of a firearm
in a felony. This is the guy who lives there.
(04:58):
The unidentified call who reported the incident told police that
three individuals tried to kick down a door. Investigators learned
the group was doing the ding Dong Ditch videos on
a TikTok challenge. Police noted the teens already hit a
couple of doors in the neighborhood before the shooting. One
jew and I said the group was running from home
a home when the gunshots came. NBC News said Butler
(05:23):
remains in custody as a court hearing next week on
unrelated misdemeanor charge of violation of a protective order and
unlawfully disseminating images of another. So again, three o'clock in
the morning, and look, I've got I've mentioned it on
the year before. I've got two or three of these
crime apps on my phone. So when something's going down,
(05:46):
the sirens starter with BBBB, I get a notification what's
going on in the area. So you're in a neighborhood,
it's three o'clock, middle of the night, your phone goes
BBB neighbor reports three to two tried kicking in their
door or whatever. And then three there's somebody at your
door after you. And you're not supposed to be worried, concerned, paranoid,
(06:10):
prepared when you open the door, I mean, face it
there's culpability on both sides of this argument. This person, though,
who did the shooting. If the story is all there
is to the story attempted murder, use of a firearm
(06:34):
while committing a felony, they're going after him wholeheartedly. I
didn't see any mention of any sort of repercussions for
the two remaining teenagers that were involved in this. It's
not that I'm heartless. I feel bad this eighteen year
(06:54):
old kid is is gone doing stupid stuff. I feel
bad about that. But I'm also not going to sit
here and say this guy needs to go away for life.
Because as people get more paranoid and bad guys become
more more belligerent in their badness, this is just gonna
(07:17):
get worse. There will be more and more stories like this.
Trust me on that. A two one nine eight six
A two one WUTV and Harry standing by here. Harry,
how are you?
Speaker 3 (07:27):
I'm doing good?
Speaker 1 (07:28):
How are you okay? As far as I know? Hey,
I have I have a real quick question to wait
a minute, Hang on, Harry, you're breaking up. You said,
you said, I listened to you, and then you got
all staticy wayman.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
Oh I listen to the radio stations.
Speaker 1 (07:46):
Can you hear me? Yeah, about six in the morning.
Speaker 3 (07:49):
Till probably seven thirty eight o'clock every day, five days
a week.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
Bless your heart.
Speaker 3 (07:56):
I'm a dedicated fan.
Speaker 1 (08:01):
Uh that killed the people on the bus. Hang on,
hang on, you said, I'm a dedicated fan, and the
you staticed out again.
Speaker 3 (08:10):
In the bad area.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
Okay, now I got you. Don't don't move Oh no,
I thought he finally found a zen place there to
use his cell phone.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
Any well, if we had any if we have any
other callers on the line, you can.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
Tell them if Harry was uh, or if you're somewhere
where you can stop driving or moving around or whatever
and just just stand still. When I could hear you,
I could hear you very well, but then you would
just drop out, as if you maybe you were driving
down the road or whatever. So if you can, if
you can hold still, go ahead. We still got a
few minutes left where I can get your get your
(08:52):
call in anyway. I'm just the reason I bring you
this story is, you know, cautionary stuff. First off, you
got the the young people in the house that are
on the TikTok. Just look, man, they're eating tide pods,
they're dubbing water on themselves, they're eating peppers that will
kill them because they're so hot. And now they're doing
stuff like this. Fifty years ago, it might have been
(09:15):
cute during the doorbell and run, or ordered the pizza
and have it sent to the neighbor's house because he's
a mean old man. But this is a different time
and you you can't do it anymore. You cannot do
it anymore. And before I get out of here and
now I must tell you about what this on the
(09:35):
surface might be judged to be a frivolous lawsuit. However,
I understand because I think this all the time. I'm
talking about fast food advertising. Those burgers they look so good, ah,
and then you get one and it's somehow it's just
(09:56):
not the same. Well, Burger King, I'm sorry. Now that
was the old Jim. What's the new Burger Burger Burger, Burger, Burger, Burger, Burger,
Burger Burger. Yeah, they're terribleper I don't know who's getting
paid for their marketing, but they need to be fired.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
I mean, it gets stuck in my head, but I
listened to it a lot.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
Burger King is in the hot seat because of the
size of the whopper. So this don't ever lie about
the size of your whopper. People. In twenty twenty two,
nineteen customers across thirteen states fought a class action lawsuit
alleging that the chain was misrepresenting the size of its
whopper in the advertising. The plane is alleged the advertisements
(10:44):
showcase burgers that were approximately thirty five percent larger in
size and contained more than double the meat than the
actual burger. Burger King filed to dismiss the lawsuit, but
earlier this week a federal judge ruled that the lawsuit
can indeed move forward. Burger King has admitted it's photographers
(11:04):
here's the quote styled sandwiches more beautifully than a restaurant
worker would. A spokes spokesperson claims, the flame grilled beef
patties portrayed in our advertising are the same patties used
in millions of burgers we serve to guest across the
United States. US District Judge Joy Altman, who was presiding
(11:26):
over the dismissal case, ruled that the advertisements go beyond
mere exaggeration or puffery, which allows the case against Burger
King to move puffery. That's the word.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
At least people say that about me.
Speaker 2 (11:42):
God a puffery, I.
Speaker 1 (11:45):
Could see you. Yeah, anyway, so it gets to move
forward here. Spokesman for Burger King alleged the plaintiffs' claims
are false. The lawyer representing the plaintiff stated that they
are happy with the judges ruling. They're ready to move forward.
Food stylists everywhere beware. So yeah, you know, look, I've
(12:07):
said this for a long time. When they show the
fountain Coca cola or whatever next to the burger, the
Coca cola is fizzier and bubble ear, and the burger
is bigger, and it's all neat and laid out nicely,
and that's never, ever, ever what you get when you
go to order the food. However, they're saying thirty five
(12:27):
percent difference in size for something generic that is very particular.
Call me crazy, but I think Burger King. I think
Burger King may may lose this one.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
They put those burgers. It's they use when they use
those advertisement, they use.
Speaker 3 (12:44):
Glue and stuff to glue the like lettuce on the
right way and ever to make it look perfect. Yeah,
so it's not going to look the same as when
you order it, when me or Julio back, they're making
it for you.
Speaker 1 (13:01):
It's not gonna be good Man,
So I this is up. You already know well you
sent me this story I think this morning. This is
one of the ones that you sent in your uh
your morning stuff email. Correct. I don't know. You've kind
of heard where I'm going on this already. Do you
do you want to correct my course? Or are we
in the same same mindset here?
Speaker 2 (00:20):
I used to do this when I was a kid. Yeah,
but there's more to the story that should be elaborated
on than just ringing a doorbell and running away.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
Apparently more is there more to the story than what
is in what you sent me?
Speaker 2 (00:38):
No, I mean in the story, I mean somebody they
thought it was a a break in and somebody it
sounded like somebody who's kicking in the door. So there's
a little more nuanced than what people are hearing if
they haven't heard this story before, where ding dong ditch
and somebody gets shot.

(01:41):
comes out and he's scared, and she won't cooperate and
he ends up shooting her, and he was going to
face charges. This basically, this terrified old man. You know,
I'm not happy that this woman was shot. I absolutely not.
But we want to make excuses for everybody in society.

made those calls, created that situation, are far more culpable
than that old man is as far as I'm concerned.

(06:10):
prepared when you open the door, I mean, face it
there's culpability on both sides of this argument. This person, though,
who did the shooting. If the story is all there
is to the story attempted murder, use of a firearm
(06:34):
while committing a felony, they're going after him wholeheartedly. I
didn't see any mention of any sort of repercussions for
the two remaining teenagers that were involved in this. It's
not that I'm heartless. I feel bad this eighteen year
(06:54):
old kid is is gone doing stupid stuff. I feel
bad about that. But I'm also not going to sit
here and say this guy needs to go away for life.
Because as people get more paranoid and bad guys become
more more belligerent in their badness, this is just gonna
(07:17):
get worse. There will be more and more stories like this.
Trust me on that. A two one nine eight six
A two one WUTV and Harry standing by here. Harry,
how are you?
Speaker 3 (07:27):
I'm doing good?
Speaker 1 (07:28):
How are you okay? As far as I know? Hey,
I have I have a real quick question to wait
a minute, Hang on, Harry, you're breaking up. You said,

In the bad area.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
Okay, now I got you. Don't don't move Oh no,

Speaker 2 (08:27):

other callers on the line, you can.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
Tell them if Harry was uh, or if you're somewhere
where you can stop driving or moving around or whatever
and just just stand still. When I could hear you,
I could hear you very well, but then you would
just drop out, as if you maybe you were driving
down the road or whatever. So if you can, if
you can hold still, go ahead. We still got a
