Speaker 1 (00:00):
Scott Vordiez.

Speaker 2 (00:01):
Now a different competition took place On Sunday. Miami Dolphins
had a football game at home and before the game
there was an incident. One of their star players, known
to Kansas City Chiefs fans and NFL fans as being
one of the most dynamic receivers in the game. Tyreek Hill,

(00:24):
who's played the last couple of years with Miami, was
speeding along a highway where police motorcycle unit had a
traffic a speed trap set up and they clocked him
going well over the speed I think over sixty miles
over the speed limit I believe, which would be close

(00:46):
to if not at one hundred miles per hour. So
he's flying down the road in a really nice car
I McLaren sports Car, and officer pulls him over into
his credit. Tyreek Hill immediately is like, I'm being pulled
over for speeding and and he pulls to the side

(01:09):
of the road. The officer tells him to move up
and uh, and then you know, approaches the car and
Tyreek doesn't have the window rolled down, leading to this exchange.

Speaker 1 (01:22):
Don't knock on my window.

Speaker 2 (01:24):
Don't knock knock on my window. Can you hear what
he's saying there. So the officer comes up. The window
is is rolled up and it's a it's a heavily
tinted window. Officer comes up, taps on the window, which
number one. This is a this is something the police

(01:45):
officers don't need to do. A heavily tinted window. They
can't see you. They don't know what's going on in
that car. The officer rather nonchalantly pulls up, you know,
walks up there and taps on the window. Tyreek Hill,
who after the the incident and after the football game,

(02:06):
said no, I was I was respecting the police officers.
My mom didn't raise me to disrespect police officers. Is
now saying, don't knock on my window like that. Don't
knock on my window light. He tapped on the window.
He didn't take a gun or a riot baton or
a flashlight bang on the thing. He tapped on the window.

(02:27):
Tyreek Hill, don't knock on my window like that.

Speaker 3 (02:29):
You knock on let that know they what? Don't knock
on my window up, don't knock on.

Speaker 1 (02:35):
My window light?

Speaker 2 (02:36):
So what is this guy? Does he have a string
in his back? Is someone point a string in his
back like one of those dolls where you pull the
string and he just repeats the same thing over and
over again, like a chatty Tyreek doll. Don't knock on
my window like that. Don't knock on my window like that.
Don't knock on my window like that. Don't knock on
my window like that. Though, So it's obvious now who's

(02:58):
in charge. Tyreek Hill's in charge. He's gonna tell the
officer what to do or not do. I not to
let you know I'm here, don't know.

Speaker 3 (03:06):
No, we're gonna know where and talk to me in
my ticket, bro, so I can go.

Speaker 2 (03:09):
I'm gonna play game. So he says, just give me
my ticket. So I'm gonna be late. Just give me
my ticket. He said, do what you gotta do, Do
what you gotta.

Speaker 3 (03:17):
Do, keep it down.

Speaker 2 (03:21):
And then then he says, after this argument about whether
he should be knocking on his window, just give me
my ticket. Let me go. I got stuff to do.
Do what you gotta do. Then he rolls the window
back up again, heavily tinted window. I'm looking at the video.
This is the bodycam footage released by the Miami Dade
Police Department yesterday. You can't see what's going on in

(03:44):
that car. And as we learned later, not that it
makes any difference to me, but this officer doesn't know
who this guy is because later after Tyreek hills. I'm
sure you know by now, I'll play the rest of
the audio here of the rest of the incident that
led to him being escorted out of the vehicle in

(04:06):
a second. But Tyreek gets pulled out of the vehicle
and handcuffed, and he's over there yapping, you know, ay,
ay ay, you know, over there yapping the whole time. Finally,
after about ten minutes or so, another officer comes up

(04:26):
and says, do you know who that is? To the
cop who is the first one to approach the vehicle,
he says, it's a star player for the Miami Dolphins. Yep,
And now he's in handcuffs over there on the road.
Is not what the officer said, but that's what I
would have said. So now the officer can't see what's
going on in the car. We have seen the situation

(04:50):
played out over and over again. What happened next could
have been very, very different. It could have been the
officer was justified and pulling a weapon and taking a
position to get Tyreek out of the car, or if
he wouldn't come out, get other cops around there. I'm
not saying the officer would have been justified and just

(05:12):
shooting into the vehicle, but this officer could and maybe
should have pulled a weapon until Tyreek showed his hands
and came willingly out of the vehicle, which he didn't do.
So now he rolls after being asked to keep his
window rolled down, he rolls it back up.

Speaker 3 (05:32):
Keep your window down, man, Hey, keep your window down.

Speaker 1 (05:45):
I'll tell me what.

Speaker 2 (05:45):
Keep your window down. I'm gonna get you out of
the car, all right, So keep your window done, Tyreek says,
don't tell me what to do to the police officer,
don't tell me what to do. The officer has now
reached the limit of his patients. I said, motterf I

(06:06):
get out of the car, Get out of the park.

Speaker 3 (06:08):
I mean we'll break up.

Speaker 1 (06:10):
Get out of the car.

Speaker 2 (06:10):
Hopping to get up, get out of the car.

Speaker 3 (06:12):
Right now, we're not playing this game. Get out, get
it up, get out, get get out. We'll could have product.

Speaker 2 (06:22):
And now he is down, face down on the ground
and being handcuffed. Don't tell me what to do. This
is part of over an hour and a half of
footage released by the Miami Dade Police Department about this incident.

(06:44):
Here are the highlights. He's speeding, he pulls over, doesn't
roll his window down, maybe rolls down a little bit
at the beginning to tell the cop don't knock on
my window. Rolls his window back up again. You got
to keep your window rolled down. Don't tell me what
to do. It's a heavily tinted window. They can't see

(07:08):
him in there, they can't see what's going on. And
the officers like, all right, we're not playing this game.
Get out of the car. And three officers pull him
out of the car. Then a couple of his teammates
who've been watching some of this because they're all on
a motorcade of sorts heading to the stadium for this game.
A couple of them pull over, get out of the car,
and they you know, they approach the officers, you know,

(07:32):
hands up, Hey, I'm just want to know what's going on.
Officers are like, that's great, gonna need you to step back.
One guy was asked multiple times step back over here,
You've got to get away from the situation. Step back
and this guy felt like that was something he couldn't do,
so he got himself handcuffed. Tyreek Hill's got one of

(07:56):
the most dynamic sets of hand in the National Football
League as a wide receiver guy catch anything. He let
this opportunity slip out of his hands, not just in
this situation, but afterwards. Because now afterwards, he went on

(08:17):
CNN yesterday and he posted on Twitter he said let's
make a change. So then CNN said, wyn't you come
talk on TV. What do you mean let's make a change.
He says, when I say let's make a change, let's
do it together. So Miami Police Department, really all officers
across the world. One officer doesn't make the whole group

(08:38):
look bad. Everybody has bad apples, every team has bad apples.
It's my job to use my platform and my resources
so that way I'm able to align with these different situations.
He starts talking about, you know, we protested, we took
a knee, we did walks. I'm trying to see what
else we can do. He's still blaming the police officer

(08:59):
for this, the guy who after the game, when they
were asking him about you know, I heard you got
pulled over a handcuffed before the game. What happened, Tyrek Hill?
You were you following officers' commands? Were you being disrespectful
with the officers? No, my mom doesn't raise me like that.
Don't tell me what to do, he says to the officer.

(09:21):
Don't knock on my window like that. Don't tell me
what to do. He's write me my ticket, Let me go.
You do what you gotta do. Don't tell me what
to do. Get out of the car. Don't tell me
what to do. Fifteen minutes later in the bodycam footage,
that's when the race card is finally played. And now
he's over there. They allowed him to sit up still handcuff,

(09:42):
but he's sitting up there on the curb, and now
he starts yapping. You know, just being black in America,
just being black while driving, can't drive a nice car.
It's what happens when you're just being black. The sad
reality of this missed opportunity is there are a number

(10:04):
of young people, white, black other who look up to
Tyreek Hill. Tyreek Hill has wide receiver football camps all
over the country every summer. He had one, I think
down in Wichita when he was playing for the Kansas
City Chiefs, and my son, who is an elementary kid,
was like, Dad, please, please, Dad, can I please go

(10:24):
to the We looked into it. It wasn't overly cost prohibitive,
but it wasn't going to work out with the timing.
These kids look up to Tyreek Hill. The guy is
amazing as a football player, and sadly, these kids are
going to look up to him right now. Oh, this
is how I'm supposed to act when I'm pulled over

(10:46):
by the police, when a police officer is asking me questions.
This is how I'm supposed to act. Don't tell me
what to do, Don't do this, don't do that, not
following the commands of the police officers. And the reality
of that is a lot of guys, a lot of
young people, especially a lot of young black guys, end

(11:07):
up getting shot in these situations because you got guys
like Tyreek Hill instructing them. This is how you're supposed
to act. Don't comply, argue, start adjudicating your case right
there in the car or on the street corner. That
always works well. You don't have to listen to what
these guys are telling you loudly and repeatedly to do.

(11:30):
You do whatever you want, and this gets a lot
of guys killed. And then we've got the situation afterwards
where you got the people coming out and saying the
officer didn't have to act that way. Now we got
protests in marches, and this officer needs to get fired.
And then they look at it and go, we think

(11:51):
the officer was justified, and people lose their minds ignoring
the fact that at the base root of all of
this is someone who was at asked keep your window
rolled down. If tyreek Hill keeps his window rolled down,
gives the documentation I need your license and registration, roof
of insurance, whatever, then then he's written a ticket. He's

(12:16):
on his way in ten minutes or less. And that's
how he should have acted. And what he should be
saying afterwards is coming out saying, you know what, maybe
the officer got a little over zealous, but I didn't
help the situation. I need to look at what I did,
and I think we can all look at this and

(12:37):
try and figure out how we can. He says, let's
make a change. When he says let's, he means you,
not him. According to tyreek Hill, he didn't do anything
wrong in this situation. Is it getting clear to anyone
why the Kansas City Chiefs let him go? People said, like, wow,
Mahomes is losing his best receiver, his best target. I

(13:00):
can't believe they're letting Tyreek go. This is the stupidest
thing the chiefs ever did. Well, maybe the guy is
a personality cancer to that team. And then you've got
the statement from the team and your statements as well.
I've already got emails coming in. We'll take a look

(13:20):
at those as well. Next on news radio eleven ten KFAB.

Speaker 1 (13:24):
Scott Boyes news Radio eleven KFAB.

Speaker 2 (13:29):
The team said, we are saddened by the overly aggressive
and violent conduct directed towards Tyreek Hill by the police officers. Violent.
They dragged him out of the car after he repeatedly
not only ignored officers commands to leave the window rolled
down and then get out of the car. If you're

(13:49):
not going to leave the windows rolled down, you got
the tended windows up and Tyreek shouting, don't tell me
what to do? What exactly do you think is supposed
to happen?

Speaker 4 (13:59):
Next?

Speaker 2 (14:01):
And I said, you know, you got a tended window.
You can't see what's going on. In there. The police
have to assume the worst. Here's an email Scott atkfab
dot com and the zonker's custom was inbox and says,
why do we need to assume because the windows are tinted,
that there must be something nefarious going on inside the car?
Seems to me that leads to a presumption of guilt

(14:21):
before the presumption of innocence, which is the exact opposite
of how it's supposed to work. That email from KL
sent here to Scott atkfab dot com. No, the guilt
or innocence is determined by a court. The officers are
now in a situation where they are the evidence gathering

(14:44):
stage of the situation. But the officers all the time
when they're dealing with someone who's acting the way Tyreek
Hill does not showing his hands. I didn't and I
didn't say, and I specifically say, I'm not saying they
start shooting inside the car, But I would have thought
that officer would have been justified to pull a weapon

(15:09):
and take a stance to see, all right, what is
what is it we're facing here? They need to assume
this because so many officers get shot. Now, the South
Florida Police Union defended the officers and said it was
Tyreek Hill who was being uncooperative. The police union president

(15:32):
said that Tyreek Hill was detained for officers safety after
driving in a manner in which he was putting himself
and others in great risk of danger. That's the first
thing here. He got pulled over because he was speeding
about one hundred miles per hour, sixty miles over the
speed limit. And Tyreek's like, just write me my ticket,
let me go. No big deal. I got money. I

(15:53):
don't care if my license get suspended. I got people
can drive me around. Well, yeah, you might have money,
and you'd have the money to pay off the family
of the people you crash into because you're driving recklessly
at one hundred miles per hour. People die when this
kind of thing happens. What Tyreek is, I'll just pay
them off. I'll get them dolphins tickets. No big deal,

(16:16):
do what you gotta do, Police union president says. Upon
being stopped, mister Hill was not immediately cooperative with the
officers on the scene, pursuant to policy and for their
immediate safety, so they placed mister Hill in handcuffs. Mister Hill,
still on cooperative refused to sell on the ground and
was therefore redirected to the ground. That means he was

(16:40):
put face down. Tyreek was issued to traffic citations and
they said, do you want to get him for reckless driving?
And the officer said, eh, So he got the uh well,
traffic citations speeding And I don't know if the other
one was a traffic citation or the failure to obey

(17:01):
lawful police commands. And Tyreek still doesn't think he did
anything wrong. The bodycam footage is out there. I think
he did something wrong. Fox News Update.

Speaker 1 (17:13):
Next Scott Voice News Radio eleven ten kfab.

Speaker 2 (17:18):
On Sunday, Miami Dolphins star wide receiver Tyreek Hill, formerly
of the Kansas City Chiefs, was speeding to the stadium.
He was not in danger of being late for kickoff.
Officer pulls him over, tries to tap on the window
to say like, hey, roll your window down, let's chat.

(17:39):
And Tyreek didn't like having his window tapped on, told
the officer don't tap on my window and rolls it
back up with tinded windows. The officers like, h, sir.

Speaker 3 (17:51):
Hey keep your window down.

Speaker 2 (17:53):
I'll tell me keep your window down.

Speaker 3 (17:55):
I want to get you out of the cart, I said,
matter if I get out of the cart.

Speaker 2 (17:58):
Yeah, he's got to get him out of the car here,
get out.

Speaker 3 (18:01):
Of the car, hopefully, get out.

Speaker 2 (18:02):
Get out of the car right now.

Speaker 3 (18:04):
We're not playing this game.

Speaker 2 (18:05):
Get out, get it up and get out. Get out.
Now he's down on the ground. You got three officers.
No one is punching or kicking him as he's now
on the ground and he's getting the handcuffs put on.
K El who emailed a few minutes ago and took

(18:29):
exception to my questioning the officers wondering what's going on
in the car with tinted windows, and I said, well,
officers want to go home at night as well, and
there's a lot of bad people that officers deal with.
If they can't see what you're doing in the car,
it's within their right to to protect themselves. And I said,
that doesn't mean start shooting into the car. Well, now,

(18:52):
kl who's been arguing with me all day in my inbox,
quite frankly, says it's a lie. Officers don't handcuff suspects
for the officer's safety. They handcuff so they can hammer
into them that they are the authority and we must obey.
It's a direct violation of our Fourth Amendment. KL. Police

(19:13):
love dealing with guys like you. Do. You know why
people are handcuffed, Not only so they can't swing at
the officer, but this is something. If you talk to
police officers and ask him about, like some of their
favorite things about being a cop, they'll tell you, Oh,
after we've handcuffed a guy, his hands are behind his back,

(19:34):
and at that point he thinks it's a good idea
to run from us. When you're running with your hands
behind your back, at some point you lose balance and
you fall and your hands aren't there to catch your fall.
That's called a face plant. And people are much less

(19:54):
likely to run if their hands are cuffed behind their back.
But KL, next time you come up against the officers,
please tell them all about your Fourth Amendment violations of
search and seizure and why you shouldn't be handcuffed and
all the rest of it. They'll have a great time
with you, a better time than I am with your

(20:16):
emails today. But thanks for listening all morning. Scott atkfab
dot com. Kathy says, if that were me and I
were pulled over, I'd be taken to jail to a
way to hearing why was this guy let go? Oh yeah,
I failed to mention that Tyreek Hill, who's right now?
Who during the traffic stop, after about fifteen minutes, started

(20:37):
playing the race card. Tyreek Hill is black. The officers,
I mean, the guy wearing the body cam has what
sounds to me to be a Latin accent of sorts,
get out of the car, you know that kind of thing.
One of the officers there also seems to be Hispanic,
and another guy is white. And of course it's pretty

(21:01):
soon every officer in the world showed up to this thing,
including black, white, Eskimo Inuit. There were all kinds of
people there, and some of them were like, hey, guys,
that's Tyreek Hill. Do you think I can get a
selfie with him. Well, he's not going anywhere. He's sitting
there on the curb, handcuffed. But then Tyreek starts playing

(21:24):
the race card. That's what happens when you're black and
speeding and not obeying the officer's commands. That's what happens
when you're black. What happens when you're white, what happens
when you're Hispanic. So what happens when you're Asian? What
happens when you're Native American? So what happens when you're American? Samoen,

(21:45):
some Moowen do the Humpty Hump. There's your eighties movie
or late eighties early nineties song reference for this segment
of the radio program. All the people that need to
do the Humpty Hump, including some Mowens digital underground. So
then after all of this, he gets his tickets and

(22:06):
they let him go. And you know why he got
special treatment because he's a superstar, he's a celebrity, he's
got money. Cathy says, if that were me and I
were pulled over and all this stuff happened to me,
I don't think that i'd probably be let go. Maybe

(22:27):
you would, Maybe you wouldn't. It really depends on how
you act in this situation. Once officers are now you
have you detained, you'll find the situation gets a lot
better if they and you quickly decide that you're not
going to cause them any further problem. Police officers can

(22:50):
soften their stance a little bit once they've determined you're
not going to cause them any further problem. I didn't
see that from Tyreek Hill this guy is an entitled,
loudmouthed jerk, and he's still was allowed to go to

(23:11):
the football game. Now, people have been comparing this to
the golfer who got detained by cops right before his
tea time that cop. Now here's the difference. Tyreek Hill
being loud, being brash, not following officers commands, gets handcuffed,

(23:31):
and is allowed to go on to his football game.
Scotty Scheffler PGA Tour Professional World number one best golfer
in the world. He gets detained and this was a dark,
rainy morning there at this golf course. One officer is
waving him up. The officer other officer doesn't see that
and is like, why is this guy suddenly going around

(23:53):
a police barricade? And that's when he jumps on the car.
Scotty Scheffler gets at his removed from the vehicle, handcuffed
and then taken to the police precinct for booking. Scotty
Scheffler is a white guy, so all this stuff about
this is what happens when you're black. Tyreek was let
go at the scene and made the football game. Scotty

(24:18):
Scheffler was taken into taking to jail he was put
in a holding cell, he was booked, he was processed,
and then he was allowed to go. And the only
reason he made his tea time and didn't get disqualified
from that tournament is because of the long rain delay.
And when he got out of the car, Scotty Scheffler
didn't say nothing. He didn't try and plete his case.

(24:41):
He didn't try and say like, hey, don't tell me
what to do or anything that Tyreek did. He got handcuffed,
he got put in back the squad cart. He consented
the entire time, he obeyed the orders, and he still
got dealt with like that, this hole like, well, this
is what happens when you're black. Scotti Scheffler's not black.

(25:07):
Cherry says, if I get pulled over, I put my
hands on the steering wheel so they can see them,
and if it's dark, I turn on the light. My
goal is to make them as comfortable as possible and
to make their job easier. They always appreciate it. I
know they do, Cherry, Thank you very much for doing that.
Curtis says, giving a police officer a suggestion of what

(25:29):
to do is a perfectly good decision to make. Signed. Hey, wife,
go get me a beer. Well done. Don says both
sides are at fault, says Tyreek Hill should have been
more cooperative, but the cops were on a power trip
and overly aggressive. No need to rough Tyreek Hill up.

(25:50):
They didn't rough him up. They removed him from the vehicle.
And even that wasn't that rough for a guy who,
you know, later that day was getting drilled on slant
patterns by strong safeties. Right, he's a football player, He's okay,
And they didn't do anything like that. They pulled him
from the car, and to his credit, Tyreek didn't start

(26:13):
swinging and fighting back. The cops were on a power
trip and overly aggressive. Yeah, after ty Tyreek was like,
don't tell me what to do. Do we need to
hear that part of the video again. I think it
was at about this point in the video.

Speaker 3 (26:33):
Keep your window down. I'll tell me what.

Speaker 2 (26:35):
Keep your window down. I'm gonna get you out of
the car. Don't keep your window down. Don't tell me
what to do. Yeah, and this guy is now going
on Twitter saying let's make a change, But it doesn't
start with him, doesn't. Scott Boyes News Radio eleven to
ten KFAB this is gonna be really something to watch.

(26:57):
And here is what I implore you to do. If
you're at all concerned with this process. I know maybe apathy,
which is exactly what they want out of you, has
fully set in. Look, I get it because of this
weird job that I have. I immerse myself in this stuff
all the time. And what I've noticed more than anything else,

(27:21):
is how they they being whatever evil entity out there
that you don't like. They don't want you to be
a part of this process. Here's what they want you
to do. They want you to be so sick and
tired of Trump and Trump, Kamala and all this stuff politics.

(27:43):
It's all set up to where you're so sick and
tired of this tonight that you don't watch. They don't
want you to watch. But they know that because of
all the resources there on your phone and all the
meat that surrounds you social media as well, they know
that you're going to see later tonight and tomorrow morning

(28:07):
a number of stories and posts from people about how
great Kamala Harris did and tonight's debate whether or not
that's true. That's what's going to happen. There will be
a lot of news stories and social media posts. I
have told you now for weeks that my Facebook feed
is just full, and it's not like anything I've ever seen.

(28:34):
If you're on Facebook, your homepage, which is the feed
of all the people that you are friends with or
follow on Facebook, it's full of all of their posts.
And the stuff that gets up to the top are
the posts of people that you like or comment on.
You interact with them a lot, or a lot of
your friends interact with them a lot. Not anymore, the

(28:56):
Facebook feed is now top populated by people who you've
never I don't know who these people are. I've never
interacted with them. I'm not friends with any of their friends.
But they posted something that got seven likes in one comment,
and it's about how awful Trump is or how great
Kamala is. And it's right there, front and center on
my Facebook page. They don't want you to watch tonight.

(29:21):
They don't want you to form your own opinion. They
want you to check in tonight or tomorrow morning, and,
through no fault of your own, see that people just
like you, or the media that you trust, thinks that
Trump really shot himself in the foot, knocked himself out
of the race and Kamala Harris will be skipping her
way to election victory in November. Now, I'm not saying

(29:46):
that that's not within the realm of possibility. Tonight, here's
what I am saying. You got to watch this tonight,
whether or not you're going to join us at Ref's
for the news radio eleven to ten kfab debate viewing party.
You listen to it on the radio, watch it in
the home, or at least watch the video highlights from

(30:06):
a few different news sources. You've got to be plugged
in enough to be able to form your own opinion.
You're a smart person, right Look at you. You got
a mirror nearby, you got your phone, turn that camera around.
Look at you. Ah, you're good looking, son of a gun.
Look at you. You're smart enough to formulate your own opinions.

(30:29):
You know that. Whether it's Kamala Harris saying we're not
gonna be dragged back to the policies of the past.
We've got to move forward, and you're like, well, I
remember the policies of Trump. It wasn't as bad as
what they're saying it was. It wasn't nearly all of
this stuff formulate your own opinions, and maybe you listen

(30:52):
to all this and your own opinion is, yeah, it
was horrible under Trump and it's gonna get worse with
this Project twenty twenty five. And you think Project twenty
five is bad, way do you see Project twenty twenty six.
What they're going to do in year two? If there's
anything left right, Oh, it's gonna be awful. Hey. If
that's your opinion that you formed after watching the debate tonight,

(31:14):
God bless you. This is America. You're allowed to form
your own opinion, but don't fall into this trap where
they want you to care so little about this process
that you just kind of get what they regurgitate and
what they want you to see as a result of
what's going on on social media. You've got to watch

(31:35):
Here's and I gave you the big example last week JD. Vance,
Trump's running mate, in the wake of the school shooting
just outside of Atlanta, he said something about the school shooting,
and the associated press put it in the headline that
Vance says that school shootings are quote just a way

(31:57):
of life or whatever. He said there just a fact
of life, Like, ah, you know, what do you want
this stuff happens all the time. What do you want
me to do about it? That's the impression they wanted
you to get. And the full context of what Vance
said was it's such a sad reality that these have
become a way of life, and ABC and D how

(32:19):
awful it is and what we should do about it.
That's not how it was reported. You know what the
AP is saying about tonight's debate. I'll tell you next.

Speaker 1 (32:27):
Scott Gohees News Radio eleven ten KFAB.

Speaker 2 (32:31):
We heard earlier from Terry Lahey. If you saw the
thick black smoke just north of chi Omaha downtown, it
wasn't the arena. It's in the industrial area just north
of there, near eleventh and Locust Street. It's the kind
of northeast of the arena, kind of between the arena

(32:53):
and the airport, and north of there eleventh and Locust
Ish at Jones Barrel Company. The fire is under control.
No word on the cause or whether there were any
injuries or anything there, but Terry Lahey is down there
keeping an eye on things, and if we get any
more details as to what happened, we'll let you know

(33:14):
here throughout the day on news radio eleven ten, kfab
I mentioned a moment ago how the Associated Press heard
Trump's running mate, Senator jd Vance say that school shootings
are a very sad and tragic part of life now
a fact of life, and they reported jd Vance says
that school shootings are a fact of life, trying to

(33:37):
give you the impression as you scan headlines that eh,
you know, hey, stuff happens. What do you want us
to do about it? Who cares? Right, move on? Which
is not at all what he said. This is the
Associated Press. These are the people who write the wire
stories that a lot of media outlets around the world
pick up and put in there. Because a lot of

(33:58):
media outlets, especially around America, don't have media members as
much as they used to. They don't have journalists, they
just use the Associated Press. They slapped this stuff in
newspapers or on online sources, and that's how it goes.
I mean, there's a reason why guys like Tom Brady

(34:18):
Colt McCoy are calling football games. There just aren't a
lot of people in media anymore. I know that has
nothing to do with the topic at hand. I just
wanted to take a shot. So here's what the Associated
Press has said about And remember if you've ever heard that,
media reports are supposed to be just the facts, ma'am,
just black and white facts, not bias, not opinion disguised

(34:43):
as news stories. That's how it's supposed to be. Here's
what the Associated Press says about tonight's matchup. Trump seventy eight?
All right, time out? Was Trump's age ever put into
a news story when he was running against Joe Biden? No? Never,
not once. So Trump, who's seventy eight, has struggled to

(35:07):
adapt to Harris fifty nine. Oh, she's twenty years younger
than you. So Trump has struggled to adapt to Harris,
who is the first woman, black person and person of
South Asian descent to serve as vice president. Trump has
struggled to adapt to Harris is an opinion. It might
be shared by many people, But that's an opinion. It's

(35:30):
not a fact, and has put here in a news
story as fact. What do you mean, ap The Republican
former president has at times resorted to invoking racial and
gender stereotypes, frustrating alleys Alleys allies who want Trump to
focus and stay out on policy differences with Harris. Again,

(35:54):
that might be true, no one's been quoted on this.
They just put it out there as like, yep, this
is as true as letting you know that today is Tuesday.
So when I tell you you have to watch this
debate tonight, they don't want you to watch it. They
don't want you to form your own opinion. They want
you to hear their reports later. And I can tell
you what those reports are going to say. They're gonna

(36:16):
say that Kamala was great. Lucy, you want to try
on shoes for a moment. I love trying on people's shoes,
not from a foot fetish kind of thing, but just
to try and figure out what would be like to
be them in that situation. You know, whose shoes I
want to try on? President Biden.

Speaker 4 (36:33):
Eating ice cream.

Speaker 2 (36:36):
He's entitled to it. Eat some ice cream, what do
you Honestly, he's just going to be around his family
or close friends or ally. He'll be able to speak
freely if he watches this at all. But you have
to think about, here's someone who's still the president. I

(37:00):
know people will like forget, like, oh, yeah, he's still
the president of the United States. It was just a
few months ago he was on the debate stage against
Trump and afterwards said I'm not dropping out of this race,
and then they dropped him out of this race. He
has publicly gone willingly acting like, oh, yeah, this is

(37:24):
this is all I ever wanted, this is what I
want to do, this is who I am, this is
what I'm all about. But you know that's not the case.
So tonight he's gotta watch this debate thinking I should
still be up there and I should be preparing for
another four years as president. He may be, Yeah, you know,

(37:53):
I don't know that I would be surprised by anything anymore. Yeah,
Harris has dropped out of the race, and Biden like
I've debated him before several times. I'll debate him again.
Wouldn't that be something? Now? Before I get into the
JD vance thing, A number of people have been emailing
Scott atkfab dot com with the picture of something they

(38:14):
received in the mail this week. They said, I can't
believe that the Douglas County Election Commission is sending these out.
What is it? It has the return address of the
Douglas County Election Commission, but these mailings clearly didn't go
out from the Douglas County Election Commission. It's a picture

(38:35):
of Kamala Harris and it says when Democrats vote by mail,
we win elections. We are not going back elect Kamala Harris.
And it's got the return address of the Douglas County
Election commission So I asked for an official statement from
Douglas County Election Commissioner Brian Cruz. He says, Scott, we

(38:59):
are receiving the I can assure you that we did
not send these out. The Democratic Party sent these out
and are having them return to our office so they
can be processed outside organizations often send out early voting
request forms and have them return to our office. Again,
I can assure you we did not send these out

(39:19):
and no taxpayer dollars were used in sending these out.
As you are well aware, we are a nonpartisan office
and I would never do something like this. I hope
this is a clear and concise explanation. Cheers Brian Cruz,
Douglas County Election Commissioner. When you receive those, that's what

(39:40):
that's all about. Now here's wondering, like, what is this
all about? Have you heard, Lucy, this idea that Haitian
immigrants I have been populating Ohio and eating pets. Yes,
The Field New Sun says, we haven't received any reports

(40:03):
of pets being abducted and or eaten, so we don't
know what jd Vance is talking about. The Ohio senator
running made of Trump tweeted here recently said months ago,
I raised the issue of Haitian illegal immigrants draining social
services and generally causing chaos all over Springfield, Ohio. Reports

(40:25):
now show that people have had their pets subducted and
eaten by people who shouldn't be in this country. Where
is our borders are?

Speaker 4 (40:38):
Well, there is a story right now, and I'm having
trouble finding it out.

Speaker 2 (40:46):
Of course, all right, let me know when you find it.

Speaker 4 (40:48):
Well, it was on Channel six here it is, it's
still on Channel six website. Women arrested for allegedly killing cat,
eating it in front of neighbors. And where is this
woman from? That be Stark County, Ohio. And that is
from the news staff Grey News Sun Channel six website.

Speaker 2 (41:09):
The Springfield, Ohio City manager says, in response to recent
rumors alleging criminal activity by the immigrant population in our city,
we wish to clarify there have been no credible reports
or specific claims of pets being harmed, injured, or abused
by individuals within the immigrant community. I don't know if
the person involved there is a Haitian immigrant or just

(41:29):
someone who just likes eating cats. That could be city
does have a large Haitian population. Since the pandemic, twenty
thousand people from Haiti have come to Springfield, Ohio. I
don't know why, specifically Springfield, Ohio looking for Homer. I
don't know if that's Springfield, Ohio where the Simpsons are from.

Speaker 4 (41:50):
It seems like it would be right though.

Speaker 2 (41:53):
Could be. Ted Cruz piled on he posted a picture
of frightened cats and it said please vote for Trump.
So Haitian immigrants don't eat us? And the babylon Bee
satirical news website just sent out their morning email of
the headlines, including the headline blue reported missing after Haitian

(42:15):
migrants move in next door. Do Haitians eat pets? I
don't know, but of course this is being reported as.

Speaker 1 (42:30):
JD.

Speaker 2 (42:31):
Vance and Donald Trump are racist and they think that furners,
especially black furners, will eat your pets.

Speaker 4 (42:40):
How is it racist that they're talking about something that
is perfectly acceptable in their own country, that they're doing here.
How is that racist?

Speaker 2 (42:49):
I think many people would think that perhaps the eating
of cats and dogs might be in other cultures, not Haitian.
That's but to suggest as much might be racist. So
I'm gonna I'm gonna Homer Simpson my way into the hedges.
I don't know if he's gonna be asked about this
tonight in the debate. But Trump came out and and

(43:11):
said that he would vote for Amendment three. And you
know he lives in Florida, mar A Lago. What's Amendment
three in Florida? It would legalize marijuana for non medical
personal consumption by smoking, ingestion or otherwise. First question, what's otherwise?

(43:35):
They mean vaping? Is that a form of smoking or
is this something that you shove up an orifice? I
must know, legalize personal non medical consumption of marijuana by smoking,
ingestion or otherwise. I guess there are lotions. I don't

(43:58):
know a lot about any of this stuff. I'm not
a teenager anymore, but I guess, yeah, lotions. We'll go
with lotions. It's a lot less, it's a lot more
wholesome than what I was thinking of. Anyway, Trump said, yeah,
I'll vote for it. He said, quote, as I previously stated,

(44:22):
I believe it's time to end needless arrests and incarcerations
of adults for small amounts of marijuana for personal use.
We must also implement smart regulations well, providing access for
adults to have access to safe tested product. As a Floridian,
I will be voting yes on Amendment three this November. Well,

(44:49):
marijuana is still classified as a narcotic by the federal government.
What happens if you're president, he addressed that quote. As president,
we will continue to focus on research to unlock the
medical uses of marijuana to a Schedule three drug, and
work with Congress to pass common sense laws, including safe

(45:09):
banking for state authorized companies, and supporting states rights to
pass marijuana laws like in Florida that works so well
for their citizens. Unquote. You know who's not real sure
about this, Governor Ron DeSantis, governor of Florida. Before Trump
posted this the other day, DeSantis was at a rally

(45:31):
in Tallahassee, and he said that if we allow this
to happen in Florida. What Trump said, Yeah, I'll vote
for it. It would create a drug cartel dominated by
large marijuana companies who would be able to operate legally.
I think that's the opposite of what a cartel does.

(45:51):
But he says, this initiative is radical, and the state
will start to smell like marijuana in our cities and towns.
Everything already smells like marijuana. I don't know. I mean,
ask your kids. You got kids in middle schools and
high schools. Someone right now is vaping or maybe even

(46:13):
smoking marijuana in the bathroom right now, and it might
be a teacher. I don't know. I don't know. Now
people are accusing Trump of pandering. There's growing number of
people in America who consume marijuana for non medical use. Well,

(46:36):
I don't know, because I mean, if there are so
many people for whom recreational marijuana is like the most
important things going on in their lives, then how come
here in Nebraska, we had a party with a candidate
for the United States Senate, the Legalized Marijuana Now Party,

(47:00):
And then their candidate dropped out of the race, said
I can't even run for Senate anymore. I'm just I can't.
And so they said, all right, well, and then like
the leader of the party says, we're going to find
someone else. They didn't find anyone else. So now the
Legal Marijuana Now Party will not put anyone on the

(47:23):
November ballot against deb Fisher and nonpartisan challenger Dan Osborne.
The Democrats don't have a challenger in this race.

Speaker 4 (47:36):
So the the.

Speaker 2 (47:40):
Spokesperson for the Legalized Marijuana Now Party said, like, dude,
we were totally going to find a candidate, and then
I just forgot bro I was gonna ask Dave, but
Dave's not here.

Speaker 1 (47:58):
Scott Snooze Radio of Levinson len kfab.

Speaker 2 (48:03):
We had a big celebrity passing yesterday, James Earl Jones,
who classically trained Shakespearean actor. This guy had done everything.
What does everyone report the voice of Darth Vader has

(48:24):
died and never will The voice of Darth Vader lives forever,
and he's admitted as much. He says, you know, I've
I've done all this stuff. I've done so many different roles.
But kids always run up to me with Darth Vader
posters asking me for an autograph. Maybe, I mean, certainly

(48:51):
one of the top three most iconic lines in movie history.

Speaker 4 (49:00):
Which one?

Speaker 2 (49:01):
Which one?

Speaker 4 (49:03):
I was, You're part of the rebel Alliance and a Trader?

Speaker 2 (49:06):
No, I watched star Wars with my daughter when she
was very young, and then after a waiting period, we
watched Empire Strikes Back and when the iconic moment came on, no,
I am your father. I wasn't watching the TV. I
was watching my daughter's face and her little five year

(49:29):
old brain exploded and she said her eyes got wide.
She goes what It was awesome. It was so cool
to experience that because I don't remember. I remember seeing
Empire Strikes Back in the theater when I was a kid,
but I don't remember my reaction to figuring out to

(49:52):
learning that Darth Vader was Luke sky Walker's father spoiler alert.
But watching that through my daughter's eyes was amazing. But
maybe my favorite James Earl Jones bit is the commercial
he did for I don't Know some Wire. It was
a Sprint commercial with James Earl Jones and Malcolm McDowell

(50:18):
where they were impersonating like teenage girls tweeting back and forth.
They're texting, texting to each other. It's a total hatty.
Mcotterson ave his amaze balls. He's like the hottest hotty
that ever haughty.

Speaker 3 (50:32):
He's like a hearty times infinity plus another infinity Totsma
