Speaker 1 (00:00):
He loves Alligator Alcatraz. It's a detention center for illegal
immigrants that was built in the Everglades. The idea of
being is, even if you escape from here, where are
you going to go? You're surrounded by swamp lands and
then the swamps you got alligators. So it's not like
I'm gonna bust out of here and go hide in
the swamp. You hide in that swamp, it's not gonna
(00:20):
work out well for you. You don't want to be
swimming around, hanging out, hiding around Alligator Alcatraz in Florida.
So Christy nom Are, a secretary of the US Department
of Homeland Security, told News Nation that she's been in
touch with five count one, two, three, four, five five
(00:42):
GOP governors about their state's potential detention centers and suggested
that there are other states that want to have their
own version of Alligator Alcatraz. And then in a CBS
News article that came out this week, they said that
list is down from five to three and on that
(01:06):
list you got Arizona, Louisiana, and Nebraska. WWT First Alert
six News reached out to Governor Pillon's office and said,
are you guys going to do and an alligator Alcatraz
type of detention center here in Nebraska, and the Governor's
(01:29):
office says it is too early to comment on the matter.
It's not too early for me to comment on the matter.
It's after nine o'clock in the morning. Some people have
already been No. I mean not just too earlier in
the day. I've been commenting on this matter for years
to recap September of twenty twenty one, the first year
(01:52):
of the Biden administration, the Douglas County Board of Commissioners
sent a letter, well, the Douglas County Border Commissioners put
pressure on Douglas County Corrections to send a letter to
the Biden administration and tell the Biden administration we are
no longer cooperating with ICE. That's what got Douglas County
(02:12):
on some lists that called this area a sanctuary city,
a sanctuary county, sanctuary area. It wasn't that you could
go parading down the streets of Omaha and say I'm
an illegal immigrant, I'm an illegal immigrant. What are you
going to do committing crimes and shooting your pistoles in
the air, and the police would just look the other way.
That wasn't the situation. What that letter said was, if
(02:39):
you are arrested in Omaha and you're suspected and actually
found to be an illegal immigrant, all of your papers
come falling out of your pockets as they're bringing you
into custody, and all your papers have various different ideas
along with a big list that say, since you're an
illegal immigrant and there's a picture of the guy, here
(03:02):
are some things to say when you are confronted by authorities.
I mean, it's like very clear that this guy is
an illegal immigrant. We told the Biden administration we would
not be cooperating with ice detainers to hold people in
Douglas County correctional facilities. Now that includes the Juvenile Justice Center,
(03:24):
the new one that sits empty, that was supposed to
house fifty four juvenile offenders, and we say we don't
need this. We already have a juvenile justice center. We
need to shut down it's too big. Meanwhile, that Juvenile
Justice Center is overflowing with juvenile justice offenders. We don't
have room for them in the bigger center. We build
a smaller center. We haven't opened it. We haven't done anything.
(03:46):
If you're looking for a facility you can use for
something like this. It exists in downtown Omaha. It's the
new Juvenile Justice Center. So that facility exists. Gary Sandemeyer
just did an interview about it on kfab's Morning News
with County Commissioner Kavanaugh, and Gary said, well, can't we
use it for something, office building something? He goes, No,
(04:07):
it's built like a jail. It's really only built to
be a jail. All right, So there's your spot. As
far as that notification we sent to Ice in September
of twenty twenty one, sent to the Biden administration, we're
not going to detain people here. Ice says, oh, hey,
you arrested a guy, he's on our watch list. Can
(04:30):
you hold him for us? We're not going to do
that for them here. We're not going to cooperate with that.
Sometimes you have to hold him for a while. And
what happens is the federal government pays the correctional facility
to detain that immigrant, that illegal immigrant. Douglas County said,
we're not going to do it. So what happened? I mean,
(04:50):
were we just letting people out? No, We talked with
the Pottawatammee County sheriff, and he told us last year,
we take him. So you're arrested in Douglas County, you're
suspected of being in the country illegally. We hand them
over to Potawatamie County. Potawatamee County detains the illegal immigrant
and they get the money. We just decided we don't
(05:13):
want that money for detaining dangerous criminals in our community
who have been apprehended by law enforcement. This makes sense
to anyone, So it surprises me a bit that Governor
Pillen has Nebraska on a list of potential Alligator Alcatraz
(05:33):
like detention centers for illegal immigrants. Here's the statement from
the Governor's office, and I quote Governor pilling is staunchly
committed to keeping Americans safe, our nation's borders secure, and
getting criminal illegal aliens off our streets. The Governor and
his administration continues to be in communication with federal partners
(05:56):
and how Nebraska can best assist in these efforts. At
this time, it is premature to comment on potential detention operations.
Governor Pillen will make details public at the appropriate time. Well,
we're waiting. There's your eighties movie reference for this segment
of the radio program. Lucy, you want to take a
(06:18):
swipe at that one? Well, we're waiting.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
That would be.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
Wow, you got that one. I don't know if you
just threw that out there or if you actually knew it.
But that's impressive.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
I have to tell you. It's because your impersonation of
Ted Night was so good.
Speaker 1 (06:35):
Wow. Basking that, yes, just basking the glory of this moment.
I throw out a billion eighties movie references every year.
Lucy never gets one even close to right. Nailed that
one first try. It's impressive stuff. Let's go while we're young.
I know today gambling is illegal at Bushwood, sir, and
(06:58):
I never slice.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
All right.
Speaker 1 (07:03):
We have facilities right now where we can detain criminal
illegal immigrants where the Trump administration says, oh, hey, you
got that guy, hold on to him for us. We
don't do that. We still don't do that. We need
to do that. We don't need the Husker version of
(07:23):
Alligator Alcatraz, which I asked during kfab's Morning News, what
would we call this if we were to do it.
I've got a few different emails here, this one from Jeremy,
another one from Peg, and they both suggest the Husker Huscow.
(07:44):
Now that's pretty good. That's pretty good. I'd vote for that,
the Husker Huscow. We were kind of trying to do
something with the Corn Correction Center.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
But no, I think they've got that.
Speaker 1 (08:00):
The Husker. Who's guy is pretty good. Let's see here,
Joe in Lincoln says, the sand Hills Stockade. You can
email Scott at kfab dot com. Ken email says, what
about the vacant World War two Air Force base in Harvard. Well,
it's not in Harvard. Between Harvard and Hastings. They've got
(08:22):
a lot of different bunkers out there that were used
for storage largely. And of course I was always told
when I was a kid, someday, Scott, We're going to
take you out there. You could dig around on those
hills and find spent shells and bullets that have been
used because they would do target practice there in the hills.
(08:45):
And I say, I can't wait. Never once went, mostly
because you're not allowed on that land. Yeah, right right
there east of Hastings, Nebraska. They've got you drive along
that lawn that the road there between Harvard and Hastings,
and along the south side of the road, you see
what looked like hills. But if you realize they look
(09:05):
a little closer, you realize all those hills have a
very specific shape. The backside of them are like storage locker, garage,
door opener kind of things. I don't know what's being
stored in them these days, but Ken says we could
store illegal immigrants in there. Well, I don't think they're
built for that purpose. There's no air.
Speaker 2 (09:28):
Air is helpful, you know, it's needed.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
We want them to get a's.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
I understand there's a lot of extraterrestrial activity around Hastings,
So I mean that could explain a lot what those
bunkers are really for.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
Well, we're talking about illegal aliens, not aliens, aliens who
would technically be illegal aliens. This they would so we
don't need to build a brand. And then they're talking
here the story from WWT First Alert six news, Nebraska
finalizing details in a new prison near I eighty and
(10:03):
seventieth Street in Lincoln. But that would replace the Nebraska
State Pan, which would leave that Nebraska State Pan vacant.
But I don't think that you could. I mean, if
we don't have a new prison already almost built, you
can't throw this thing together as quickly as they did
(10:25):
in Florida. They basically did tents down there. They just
slap that thing together and go here we go. We
get a detention facility. So it probably wouldn't even come
close to being finished during this term of President Trump,
who said yesterday he probably wouldn't run for a third term.
Isn't that nice for those of you who can't stand
(10:48):
President Trump? He said he probably won't run.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
Don't you have a choice to be in this alligator alcatraz?
I mean, ultimately it is a choice to be there
or not.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
You can self deport. They've given you the opportunity to.
In some cases, you can get money. You can they
were offering people like a thousand bucks, Like all right,
come correct, you got to come correct. You get your money,
and we will get you out of here. Now. For
(11:19):
some of these people, especially those who've been here for decades,
they don't have a home other than here, In which
case you go talk to a nice immigration attorney and say,
I bet there are probably some fees and some fines
and some penalties I need to pay. How can I
go about doing this the right way? I would hope
that they would work with you. If you have had
(11:41):
a legitimate identity the entire time you've been here, and
you haven't been in trouble. So where in Nebraska, though,
would you put something like this to where if it's
same token, if you sneak out of there, if you
managed to, you know, put on a like you take
the top off the mop and you put on your hair,
and now you look like an old woman because you
(12:03):
got this kind of white style dreadlock hair. And you're like, oh, honey,
I came to visit my son.
Speaker 2 (12:10):
Enough time a me a go.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
And you're running out of there and you sneak out
and you're like a free and where are you gonna hide?
I mean where you would be attacked by wildlife? But
you can be swarmed by prairie dogs. Where are you
gonna just swarm by mosquitoes? Somewhere around here? Where in
Nebraska is such a barren landscape to where you would
(12:37):
sneak out and have no place to go until you
catch your death other than most western Nebraska? All Right,
I just answered my own question. We're also looking for
ideas on what to name this thing. Dave says, the
corn Husker clink, the prairie pokey, prairie. Pokey's pretty good.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
About a little Pokey on the prairie.
Speaker 1 (13:04):
Yeah, well that's a pay that's a Dan thought. I
was quoting Vizzini from Princess Bride when I said, well,
we're waiting. No, no, that's uh. That would be Judge
Smails from Caddyshack. Vizini from Princess Bride is I'm waiting,
you know. So it's a little different. It's a similar
(13:28):
but a different line. Matt emails the Platte Valley Penitentiary.
That's pretty good. Steve says, cornhole corrections, Cornhole, that's the
pay site. Johnny says, how about the cow Pie Palace?
How about New how about new the Cornhusker clink. Yeah,
(13:53):
we got that one, thank you very much. The Jared
says the Omaha go Homaha Winter Winner. That's pretty funny. Yeah,
we're not using it, but that's pretty funny.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
I like it.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
Yeah, what about our homegrown home grown criminals? I mentioned
yesterday that it's this is a horrible situation. It's an
NU regent who also was a deputy with the Douglas
County Attorney's Office, and here recently she was in a
really bad car accident according to authorities her fault, she
(14:29):
blew a point three two one on the breathalyzer test.
If you're not familiar driving drunk, that threshold point eight
point three to two is at a coma level. So
she got into crash in late May near sixty third
Blondo and someone has been clinging to life as a
(14:52):
result of that crash. Authorities got her arrested her for duy.
It took so long for her to be charged because
of her role with the Douglass County Attorney's Office and
a conflict of interest to who would be able to
charge her and how that would go. But she faces
a count of DUI causing bodily injury serious bodily injury,
(15:12):
which is a felony. Three years in prison, ten thousand
dollars fine are things that she faces. She won't be
back in court for about another month. But in the meantime,
we learned that Elizabeth O'Connor as is no longer employed
by the Douglas County Attorney's Office. They issued that statement
yesterday afternoon and said that their thoughts are with the
(15:34):
victims involved here. She's still an nu regent. I don't
know that process or what they might do. But the
only thing I mentioned about it yesterday and I got
some flak for this from kfab Nation. I said, you know,
if she were a Republican, that would be in the story,
but she's not a Republican, so it wasn't in the story. Well,
(15:56):
the regent raise is officially nonpartisan ride now. To her credit,
she's not rabid one way or the other. In terms
of what I can find in her political persuasion, she
looks like someone who is a Democrat, registered Democrat, came
up as through student government at UNL and wanted to
(16:19):
continue to serve the university. Was probably a student rep
on the regents, which I think you are if you're
class or if you're a student body president, but loved
the university, wanted to continue to serve. I respect that mightily.
I feel awful for her, whether this was something that
(16:39):
she did every single night, or whether this was just
a horrible night full of bad decisions. And she got
to a point, and sometimes it sneaks up on you
where you don't know whether your foot or horseback, And
no one was around her to say, hey, you're not driving.
I don't know. My points here is not to judge
her that we got a team of authorities who are
doing that. My point is for the local media, if
(17:04):
she were a Republican, if she were a mega red
hat wearing Trump supporter, that would be pointed out in
the story. You know it would. People have been emailing No,
it wouldn't. I can't believe you say that. Why do
you always got to pick on people? All right, here's
another one. Yesterday Beto O'Rourke was in town. This is
a former Texas state legislator who decided I could be
(17:28):
president of the United States and the American people said
uh no. And so he has just been kind of
a media figures as a Democrat, and he was here
in Omaha yesterday held a town hall at UNO to
talk about how great it is that his fellow Texas
(17:51):
Democrats have fled the state like he has. He's not
still in the legislature, but he's not in Texas right
now fighting for this redistricting thing. He was up at
un O yesterday pocketing money and talking to students or
whoever it is that showed up to tell him how
great Democrats are in Texas, both of them. So he
(18:12):
was here. Now the media reported this this story from
k e TV News Watch seven. Former Texas representative weighed
in on the national redistricting efforts during a visit Nebraska.
Beto O'Rourke Hill town hall. Now, if he were a
Maga Trump supporting Republican, they would find some way to
(18:32):
point out something like this. Beto, who was born Robert
Francis O'Rourke to Irish American parents and changed his name
to the more Hispanic sounding Beto in hopes of being
elected in Texas, stopped at Uno yesterday. There would be
(18:53):
some snide, factual but snide comment about how this guy
is a total fun Now the people in Texas saw
through that took a while for the rest of the
people in America to do so. But if he were
a Trump lov and Republican, there would be some comment
like that, Beto, which is a nickname given to him
(19:13):
by his Irish American parents, as he thought, maybe I
can get away with looking and sounding Hispanic. Put my
name on a ballot, have an Hispanic sounding name. Maybe
I'll get elected here in this district. You know, because
Seamus O'Rourke didn't sound as Mexican as I was looking for.
(19:35):
Patty o'quigley. O'Rourke doesn't have the same ring to it
here in this district to Texas, So we'll go with Beto.
Even though this guy is about as Hispanic as Conan O'Brien.
If he were a Trump loving Republican, the media would
have reported that. They would have found some way to
(19:57):
put that in, but they didn't. He's about as Irish
or he's about as Hispanic as Elizabeth Warren is Native American.
Bunch of phonies.
Speaker 2 (20:07):
I think, oh, what's his name? The one that we
don't like, the one that I don't like a lot
of people I don't like singer. I'm so blanking on
his name now. The one that you think he's great,
Oh my.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
Gosh, don't you dare say? Weird Al Yankee?
Speaker 2 (20:21):
No, the one that was Dan Lincoln I.
Speaker 1 (20:23):
Great concert last night. Weird Al likenk Yankovic was in
Lincoln last night.
Speaker 2 (20:27):
No on the field for the very first time.
Speaker 1 (20:29):
Garth Brooke, Yeah, that guy.
Speaker 2 (20:31):
I think he wrote a song about O'Rourke. No, yeah,
it was called shameless.
Speaker 1 (20:36):
Actually, Billy Joel wrote that song. But a fine shot.
That's a Billy Joel song. You know that, right?
Speaker 2 (20:42):
I didn't know that. Yeah, I told you I didn't
like Garth.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
Billy Joel wrote Shameless and it was on the Stormfront album,
which is the same album we got We Didn't Start
the Fire from circa nineteen eighty nine. Uh never released
it as a single that.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
Album has but it's on the album.
Speaker 1 (20:58):
Yeah, that album had did we Didn't Start the Fire?
I go to Extremes and the down Easter Alexa as
well as and So It Goes, which is the name
of this documentary by Billy Joel and Garth Brooks kind
of watching going. Is he not going to release that
song as a single? He never did, And so they
wrote no one kne who Garth Brooks was, and they
wrote to Billy Joel's people and said, can I release
that song as a country single if you're not going
(21:20):
to Billy Joel's like, yeah, whatever, kid, and the rest
is history.
Speaker 2 (21:23):
I'm going to go listen to it now.
Speaker 1 (21:25):
And Lucy still doesn't.
Speaker 2 (21:28):
Knooks.
Speaker 1 (21:28):
Am I supposed to do a Fox News update like
a million years ago Scott Foryes News Radio eleven ten
kfab did Indiana just ace us that Fox News report
said that they got the Speedway slammer set up here. Now,
I don't think this is the only place that Department
of Homeland Security is talking about when they're discussing the
(21:49):
possibility for a new illegal immigration detention center somewhere else
in America, because Florida did Alligator Alcatraz. Indiana now now
it's the Speedway Slammer. But CBS News reported the other
day that Nebraska was on a list with Arizona and
Louisiana as the three states that the Trump administration was
(22:10):
eyeing and talking with governors about for consideration for another
illegal immigration detention center. My question is, and this is
the most important thing, what are we gonna call it.
I'm getting more suggestions now from among others. Marcia is
just suggesting we call it the corn Hole. It's simple,
(22:36):
it's memorable, the corn hole. It works, Dan says, Children
of the corn Ctraz. Now we can just show that
movie to the illegal immigrants, like yeah, just you know,
because I asked, like, we're in Nebraska, because all right,
so the Sandhill there's not a lot of people out
(22:58):
there in many places. So you would escape from the
Husker Huskow or whatever this thing would be called, and
you would say, all right, which direction do I go, Well,
there's sand hills over here, sand hills over there, sand hills.
Speaker 2 (23:15):
Hmmm.
Speaker 1 (23:17):
I suggested that maybe it wouldn't be as scary, like
you'd go hide someplace and not be worried about getting
attacked like an alligator Alcatraz. They got pythons and other
various reptiles in there. You don't want to be hiding.
Speaker 2 (23:30):
Yeah, badgers, we don't need no stinking badgers, we don't.
Speaker 1 (23:36):
The prairie dogs aren't that scary. Then the mosquito's pretty
thick out there. But if we showed them the movie
Children of the Corn and said those kids are out there,
they would be begging to go back to I don't
care what country you say I'm from, Take me back there,
as long as those freaky Children of the Corn kids
(23:56):
aren't out there.
Speaker 2 (23:57):
You're onto something, Yeah, we can put.
Speaker 1 (23:59):
It, and we have some nice farm agg land around
it and everywhere, Like you escape from there, you go
sneaking out of there in the laundry basket, or you
tunnel out from behind the poster, and then you come
out and you're in freedom, and you're looking all around you,
and everywhere you look cornfields and you just watch children
of the corn you go back inside say I'm sorry,
(24:23):
I accidentally found my way outside. You should do something
about that exit.
Speaker 2 (24:28):
You mean there's a hole in the corn hole.
Speaker 1 (24:30):
Yes, the corn hole kind of like that President Trump
is now talking about. Because if we can't detain them
in America, you can't keep all of them in El Salvador.
They're rounding up a lot of criminal illegal immigrants. Where
else are we going to put them?
Speaker 2 (24:48):
Wait? Wait, you said you can't keep all of them
in the Salvador.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
Yeah, well you remember the Trump administration was detaining people,
and when we didn't have the detention facilities available in America,
they were put them on planes and sending them to
El Salvador. El Salvador. So, yeah, you can bring them here. Well,
we'll take the money and we'll find a way to
detain them. We have a new place, we'll find a
way quote unquote Yeah, you don't ask a lot of
(25:12):
questions at that point. Not a very humanitarian conversation. I
totally get it. But there's a new nation that says
we'll take them too. If you're just giving out money
and you're looking for a nation that knows how to
detain people, we're in. And now Rwanda has struck a
new deal with the United States to accept up to
(25:35):
two hundred and fifty criminal illegal aliens who have been
detained by ICE in America. It would be deported from
American soil and sent to Rwanda. You imagine you're a
Venezuelan gang member and you've been hiding out in Omaha
and now you just got picked up and like, all right,
(25:55):
we're putting you on a plane. Am I going back
to Venezuela. I'll be treated like a king there. No,
we're going to take a left. You're going to Rwanda.
Oh I heard there's a hotel there. No, that's a
movie and that's not a great hotel. You're going to Rwanda.
Where's that? I don't know, somewhere in Africa. Here you
(26:18):
go and they drop them off here Rwanda.
Speaker 2 (26:22):
Well, here's what I don't understand. If there are almost
no crossings of the border now, I mean they're down
to virtually none across the illegal aliens coming. Yes, then
there are lots of ICE agents, There are lots of
attorneys and social workers and all of this. They must
have time on their hands. Now, why are we not
(26:43):
going through each and every one of these individuals on
their own, looking at their past and sending them back
directly to the countries they came from. Why are we
not doing that? And if somebody should still be here,
if they are a family that really is trying to
escape the war or looking for political asylum, legitimately, yes,
(27:07):
and we find a place for them when we set
them up and get them settled here.
Speaker 1 (27:11):
Yeah. But the well, the problem with that last point
is that's what the Biden administration was doing with their
open border policy, like, oh, we don't have an open border,
people you know who are legitimate asylum seekers can come here,
and we suddenly it was amazing, everyone who came from
our southern border was suddenly a legitimate asylum seeker who
transported themselves and whatever kids they could grab along the
(27:35):
way to say I'm here with my child and they're
kids like this isn't my dad. They bypassed several countries
that they could have used to seek asylum and didn't
seek asylum in any of those nations. They waited to
come to America because there was a better opportunity and
free stuff.
Speaker 2 (27:50):
I understand that.
Speaker 1 (27:51):
So, I mean, I just wanted to say that to
your point of those who were seeking asylum, it's hard
to determine who's legitimate there and who's not. All that's
been right now put on hold. Your question is if
we have someone who we know shouldn't be in this country,
send them back from whence they came. In some instances,
that is happening. In some instances, those nations don't want
(28:13):
them so well, and yeah I get that. Yeah, well,
and like I said, in some cases that's happening, but
you also don't want to. Let's say the country is like, yeah,
bring that guy back here. We love that guy, and
we send him down there and he does not. I mean,
(28:35):
if we're talking about people like these guys who were
just picked up in Omaha a couple of weeks ago,
we have people wanted for murder in their home nation,
and if that home nation is run by thugs and
gang war lords and we drop them off in there, well,
they're not going to be held accountable for their crimes.
We have to do something with them to hold them
accountable for their crimes. So it's it gets I mean,
(29:01):
if you like, well, just round them all up and
send them all to Rwanda or el Salvador or whatever.
I know. I'm saying, if people have that opinion, it's
a lot more nuanced than that. I mean, you're looking
at the individual situation of some of these people, and
it's this is quite the process. In the meantime, the
(29:21):
while we're going through the process trying to figure out, like,
all right, of the people who've just been detained here
in Omaha recently, how many of them are criminal murderous
gang warlords, and how many of them came to this
country paid a guy a few bucks to get an
identity They were said, no, no, this is just fine,
(29:41):
you'll be okay, And they came here, they've been working,
they've not been committing crimes. Didn't maybe realize they were
committing identity theft, but they know now. And now we're
trying to figure out, like, all right, who's the hardened murderer,
drug trafficking, human trafficking criminal, and who's the person who
just wants to old sheets and wants to try and
(30:02):
get some way right with the law. Well, while we
do that, and that takes a long long time, they
need to be detained somewhere. Hence Alligator Alcatraz, Florida, the
Speedway Slammer just announced this morning in Indiana or in
Nebraska the potential corn hole or Husker whoscou or going
(30:25):
back to let's see the Prairie prison. Pretty good, pretty good,
Scooter says, the Windy work work camp, the windy work camp,
the Panhandle pokey, that's one from Gary. That's pretty good,
whatever we call it. If Nebraska gets it, they would
(30:47):
be detained there while we're trying to figure out all
the rest of this stuff. It could be a while.
Okay in the meantime, if you're listening to this, and
I love the idea of people in the country illegal
listened to this asking the translator what did he say?
This is valuable information and some of it's kind of funny.
(31:09):
Is he trying to be funny? Are we laughing at him?
We laughing with him? I don't know. It's hard to
We just we're just listening and laughing. I love the
idea of people listening to this going, well, what do
I do? Well? This is where you contact immigration attorneys
or someone, or go to the nearest Blockbuster video and
safe haven yourself or whatever it is we're doing these days,
(31:31):
and say I don't want to live in fear of
being arrested and detained. I don't want to be looking
over my shoulder. I need to get right with the law.
I'm willing to pay a penalty and I'm willing to
do whatever it takes. They would love to have that
conversation with you. As I said, we've got some homegrown criminals.
(31:54):
We forget about them, right. We've got a few of
them in the news here, and I'll give you these
detail including this asenine headline, and I'll give it to
you next. Scotties News Radio eleven ten kfab an asenine
headline here says it's talking about this man who three
years ago this month I think, killed some people up
(32:17):
in the community of Laurel, Nebraska, among other things, setting
fires to people's houses, after shooting four people four counts
of first screen murder. This guy has been found guilty
and now he'll be sentenced for crimes committed three years
ago this month and might get the death penalty. That's
(32:39):
the asenine part. We don't have a death penalty in Nebraska.
Yeah we do. We No, we don't. We haven't executed
anyone in several years. Everyone always complains loses their mind.
Anytime anyone talks about moving someone from Nebraska's death row,
of which there are eleven people on that row, to whatever,
(33:00):
you know, the lethal injection or whatever, they're like, we
can't get the thing, and we can't do the thing.
We don't the Nebraska voters voted overwhelmingly to restore the
death penalty. We don't have a method for carrying it out,
so right now the death penalty is life in prison.
The method of capital punishment is time until you die
(33:20):
in prison. Not much of a death penalty. I'm not
a big death penalty guy, but if anyone deserves it,
this guy in Laurel, Nebraska does
