Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:23):
Hey, yoh, they they should calm down. The show is
about to style on the radio. Turn it up, turning
it up, turn it.

Speaker 2 (00:32):
Up loud, like a dream come true.

Speaker 3 (00:35):
Your Due to the nature of this program, discretion does
not exist. It's race on the radio right now on
w t i S News Talk ten eighty.

Speaker 4 (00:51):
It'll come here you go.

Speaker 5 (00:56):
Yeah, all right, ke skellywag Nutmeger, conversationalists.

Speaker 4 (01:12):
All across the fruited plane. You know what time it is.

Speaker 6 (01:17):
It's Reesa on the radio on WTIIC News Talk ten eighty.
And we begin to show, of course, because there's tragic
news in Minneapolis, another shooting in the region, in Tim
Walls's region.

Speaker 4 (01:31):
This is not to say this is about cam.

Speaker 6 (01:33):
It just again we are back here, national news coming
out of his backyard. This time it involves children. This
time it involves another Catholic establishment, another Catholic school.

Speaker 4 (01:50):
And that's a problem.

Speaker 6 (01:53):
It's a problem for a lot of people, especially those
are the Catholic faith. But it's all that's a problem
from what we're learning now for a lot of anti
Christian and anti Catholic folks. No matter how it is spun,
you know what's going to happen, everyone will go to

(02:14):
war verbally, that is about who is responsible. I'm not
going to go in that because it's easy. That's easy pickens.
We don't do easy pickens here. We don't do low
hanging fruit. I could do that all day, easy stuff.

(02:38):
But I do want to talk about this because I
was going to do a monologue about law enforcement in
the beginning of the show anyway, based upon our conversation yesterday,
our interview with Brian Shackman talking about the arrest at Newington.

Speaker 4 (02:58):
With Ice agents.

Speaker 6 (03:00):
Yes, also we also have that backdrop of violence that's
happening in the inner city, with the National Guard being
in DC and Democrats and Republicans going back and forth
about violence in the inner city and how we need
to deal with it.

Speaker 4 (03:16):
All of that.

Speaker 6 (03:19):
And the shooting today has to do with law enforcement.
How easy we need law enforcement at our schools we do.
They are soft targets. They have been soft targets for
a long time, since the days of Columbine. And this

(03:42):
nonsense about we don't want our schools looking like prisons
is a joke. It is a joke.

Speaker 1 (03:54):
It is.

Speaker 4 (03:56):
Based in hatred.

Speaker 6 (03:58):
If not, I don't know apathy for the police department
or law enforcement overall. Let's explain, and we'll get into
the shooting. We're getting more details about that. I watched

(04:19):
what I believe is supposed to be a manifesto video
of the shooter who has been identified. We'll get into
that as well. As more details come up, we'll talk
about it. I don't like jumping on the bandwagon because
everybody else is doing it.

Speaker 4 (04:34):
I'll let them sort it out afterwards.

Speaker 6 (04:40):
I want to talk about Connecticut specifically, Why after Sandy
Hook do we not have police officers at the schools.
Everyone says that it has everything to do with having
them look like prisons. But what's more important the esthetics

(05:03):
or the lives of children.

Speaker 4 (05:04):
I've got to ask.

Speaker 6 (05:05):
Myself a question every day about that, and I keep
coming up with I don't care about the esthetics. I
really really don't like looking at the news, and either
do you like looking at the news hearing a story
about a ten year old fighting for their life, or
a ten year old or a six year old dead

(05:25):
by some whack job going in there with it AK
forty seven or an AR fifteen, or even a handgun. Hell,
even if it's a musket who cares. Nobody likes the outcome.
This isn't about the gun. This is about the violence
and the individuals who carry them out. Oh and you
can bring up the Uvaldi thing, but let's be honest.

(05:48):
What always happens outside of Uvaldi when the police arrive,
even in the case of Sandy Hook, What always happens
when you have a shooting, a mass shooting. What always
happens these individuals in New York City at the so
called NFL shooting that happened on the wrong floor. What

(06:12):
did the shooter do when law enforcement arrive? They take
their own lives. When somebody else shows up with a gun,
immediately they become desperate and the thing that they should
have done from the beginning in that situation just harm themselves.
They wait until after they've harmed everyone else in a
soft target, and then when the police arrive, good guys

(06:32):
with guns, they off themselves, Which means, what.

Speaker 4 (06:40):
If we're looking at this righteously, perhaps.

Speaker 6 (06:45):
No damage comes to anyone if law enforcement is there,
the deterrent is there. What are you going to invent
another law? When are you folks gonna realize that laws
don't stop crimes, They punish it do. I have to
keep repeating that. I feel like I'm the only ones
that ever have said that out loud. They don't prevent crimes,

(07:09):
they punish them.

Speaker 4 (07:11):
It is not a deterrent. Even when I watched Donald
Trump yesterday talking.

Speaker 6 (07:16):
About we need to have the death penalty in DC,
do you think that's going to keep these savages from
killing each other? No, they already think their lives are
a death sentence. It's not a deterrent. But I want
to get back to Connecticut, and it's apathy with law enforcement.

(07:41):
It's because of what law enforcement represents. They say here
in Connecticut that they are worried about guns. Why don't
they give stiffer penalties to people who commit gun crimes?
Why don't they carry that out? They're the ones who

(08:02):
believe that laws are deterred. Why not make a law
that makes it mandatory that if you were caught using
a gun or having a gun, that there is a
mandatory penalty for it that has a lot of years
on it. You're a gang banger with a gun, fifteen
years boom, that's it.

Speaker 4 (08:22):
Make it happen.

Speaker 6 (08:25):
And if they commit an act with it, tack on
the gun charge as well, get them for murder and
then get them for fifteen years for having.

Speaker 1 (08:32):
A gun.

Speaker 4 (08:34):
Assault with a gun.

Speaker 6 (08:35):
Give them ten years plus another fifteen for having a
gun in the first place. Make sure you put these
animals away for a long time.

Speaker 4 (08:43):
But they won't.

Speaker 6 (08:45):
Why they refuse to give them those penalties? They just
release them. And what is law enforcement supposed to do
when they see the same crud that they just locked up,
the same animal that they just grabbed. Don't the street
and put into the system walking out the next day?
Who's whose face is getting slapped there law enforcement? Who

(09:10):
feels dejected? Who feels disrespected? The police officer?

Speaker 4 (09:18):
And for what? Why is he disrespected?

Speaker 6 (09:22):
And why is the criminal given a free pass to
act in any way he wants to? Is this for votes?
That animal doesn't vote. You can barely get him to
pick up his phone to vote for American idol. Wait
to get in their good graces? What about the police force?
Don't you need them in your good graces? No, they

(09:47):
don't care. Why because to them, the police officer is
the oppressor. The police officer is the bad guy. People
are wondering how the police force has like switched its
affiliations from Democrats, you know, who used to always give

(10:08):
them the perks, always give them the advances, always make
sure that their pensions were higher. All of a sudden,
out of nowhere, they switched teams and started rooting for Republicans.

Speaker 4 (10:18):
Why because they cared about their lives.

Speaker 6 (10:21):
At the end of the day, who cares if you've
got a pension if you're not going to be alive
to actually spend it. They realized the error of their ways,
and now that they don't have the support of the
police force, they've thrown them aside when they started casting

(10:42):
them as some sort of oppressive force against the minorities
in this country, started maligning them, humiliating them, allowing savages
to treat them in any which way they wanted to.
The way they encourage people to show them respect, threatened
their funding, threaten their abilities to do their jobs.

Speaker 4 (11:06):
You sit up here and tell me that they have
respect for law enforcement. Hell no, they don't.

Speaker 6 (11:14):
You can look no further than what we saw in
Newington in a reaction to it, because ice.

Speaker 4 (11:20):
Is law enforcement. Enforcement of the law is the antithesis
of the Democrat Party. You people say that.

Speaker 6 (11:32):
You care about mental health, surely these school shooters have
a mental health problem in Connecticut. How have you shown
that you can concern yourself with the shooter's mental health? Well,
I say, look no further than Tyree Smith. Remember him

(11:55):
the cannibal ate off the face of his victim. How
did you guys treat his his case? Man, I was
supposed to serve sixty years in prison. You were so
concerned about his mental health. You couldn't wait to set
that man free. You concern yourself with mental health? Has

(12:17):
anybody had a conversation with former Hartford police officer Jill
Gindnick That woman almost had her head clean sliced off.
The woman had to fight to get a criminal protective order.
You're concerned about mental health? If there is a way

(12:40):
to demonize law enforcement in this country, or better yet,
in this state. You guys have taken every shot at it,
every shot at it, and you would sooner put handcuffs
on them than on the criminals in this state. The

(13:00):
part that seems to baffle me is the mayor of Minneapolis.
Just to show you how misguided this whole thing is.
We played the audio at the top of the hour
with John Silva, but I gotta play it again.

Speaker 4 (13:15):
Because I have to respond to it here he is
Minnesota or Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Fray. I've got one question
to this.

Speaker 1 (13:22):
These were Minneapolis families. These were American families.

Speaker 7 (13:27):
And the amount of pain that they are suffering right
now is extraordinary. Don't just say this is about thoughts
and prayers right now, these kids were literally praying. It
was the first week of school, they were in a church.
These are kids that should be learning with their friends.

(13:49):
They should be playing on the playground. They should be
able to go to school or church in peace without
the fear or risk of violence, and their parents should
have the same kind of assurance.

Speaker 6 (14:01):
I got one question, Mayor Fray, Who in the hell
are you yelling at?

Speaker 4 (14:12):
Who in the hell are you chastising? It ain't the shooter.
You are at a press conference for the shooting at.

Speaker 6 (14:30):
A school, and you are yelling at the people behind
the television cameras talking about their thoughts and prayers as
if they have done something wrong. They have nothing to
do with the death or the injury of those children.

(14:54):
The shooter does. Do you get it? And this goes
to everybody from the Chuck Schumers to the Chris Murphy's
to the Dick Blumenthals, to the governor Lamont's of the world.
What are you shouting at us for when didn't pull
a trigger? Why would we be chastised for our thoughts

(15:18):
and prayers? What have we got to do with the villain,
the savage, the evil? What do we have to do
with it? You think we're sitting idly by, No, stupid,
We're ducking our children.

Speaker 4 (15:34):
Are ducking.

Speaker 6 (15:35):
Our children are in the classroom doing active shooter drills
because you won't give them the tools, the means to
keep them safe. You're sitting idly by waiting for another
opportunity for you to blame guns while you use them
as guinea pigs. Look, I am not of the belief

(16:00):
that you want these children hurt, but you are not
in the interest of protecting them because you'd have done
it already. It isn't difficult, the evidence is there. A
police deterrent is good for these children. A relationship with

(16:24):
these police are good for children, especially in the inner city.
You guys talk a good game about community policing, where
a large part of the community starts in the classroom,
where kids go to school with their friends and neighbors,

(16:47):
where parents go and show up to pick up their
kids after school.

Speaker 4 (16:51):
That's all a part of the community, my friend.

Speaker 6 (16:55):
Get it together, and please stop lecturing us about thoughts
and prayers, because that's all we've got Outside of that.
You're ignoring our pleas to protect our children. Don't tell
us what to do. It's your job to do what
we tell you to do, and you've ignored that at

(17:17):
every turn. Spare me, may or Fray, Spare me and
all the rest of you. Nobody's listening anymore. When we
come back, more details on this animal, the guns, and

(17:38):
let's see how everybody else reacts. There After we got
more news and more views. Don't go anywhere. Treats on
the radio on WTIC News Talk ten.

Speaker 3 (17:45):
Eighty, FAM and wti C. Then do us a favor,
download the Free Honesty and Favorite WTIC.

Speaker 6 (17:53):
Hey, we're back Reese on the radio WTIC News Talk
ten eighty and we of course are still talking about
the shooting at the Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis. This
this incident is going to put a lot of attention on.

Speaker 4 (18:16):
Transgenderism in our country, and I gotta I'm.

Speaker 6 (18:23):
Just warning you now because the days of everyone being
silent or the political correctness or the quietness that will
be that used to be on this subject is no
more now. I'm laying this out for you for a reason.

(18:44):
The Covington School, I think it was a couple of
years back where three students and three faculty members were
shot and killed by a girl who was transitioning to
a boy, and the manifesto had to be kept under wrapped.
The police department didn't want to release it, even though

(19:07):
it took a matter of days for us to get
manifesto of the shooting at the Tops supermarket in Buffalo.

Speaker 4 (19:16):
They didn't want it out.

Speaker 6 (19:17):
Why because that manifesto was saying some things about the
individual being transgender and their hatred for Catholics, Catholicisms, and Christianity,
and that was going to look bad on the administration
because it had a reputation of going after people of

(19:38):
the Catholic faith while protecting other groups. Need I get
into the whole anti semitism of the college campus riots
in the past couple of years.

Speaker 4 (19:51):
But a new day is here.

Speaker 6 (19:54):
Where Donald Trump is the president of the United States,
and the first thing that's going to be on his
desk is the fact that the shooter had according to reports,
and according to every video I've seen.

Speaker 4 (20:08):
So far, things that said kill Donald Trump.

Speaker 6 (20:14):
And to protect pride and transgenderism and all of that
other you know, hoopla. We also know about the suicide
case that Project Veritas exposed for us all right here
in Connecticut. Elvira said trying to get justice for her
daughter who ended up taking her own life because she

(20:37):
was suffering from mental illness so bad in her transitioning
she took her own life. And what do you think
is going to happen? Donald Trump is going to address
it so that everyone else in America can respond to it.
And what do you think they're going to defend folks? Huh,

(20:59):
what do you think think they're going to defend.

Speaker 8 (21:04):
You?

Speaker 4 (21:04):
Hear a lot of people saying, don't do it.

Speaker 6 (21:06):
It's a trap. Don't do it, folks, it's a trap.
What do you think Democrats are going to do? Full
for it? They'll fall right into the trap. Donald Trump
will say something along these lines. If there truly is
a mental health issue going on in the transgender community

(21:28):
that's associated with gender dysphoria, we should address it so
that we do not have episodes like these in the future.
Where people are harming themselves or attacking people for their
religious beliefs. Now Democrats can respond to that in a

(21:49):
positive way.

Speaker 4 (21:50):
You're right, we should address this, or.

Speaker 6 (21:54):
They will see it as a demonization of transgender folks.

Speaker 4 (22:00):
Remember this happened in Minneapolis. Let me give you a
couple examples. Minnesota Governor Tim Wallas quoted is saying we
are a safe haven for the transgender individual. The Minnesota
Attorney General.

Speaker 6 (22:20):
Keith Ellison said, we we're suing Trump for gender affirming care.

Speaker 4 (22:29):
The Minnesota Lieutenant governor, I don't even know who that
person is.

Speaker 6 (22:34):
When our children tell us who they are, it's our
jobs as grown ups to believe them.

Speaker 4 (22:42):
So Donald Trump will.

Speaker 6 (22:44):
Say, we need to investigate this further because people are dying.
And if he says something is like general is that
people are dying, they'll phrase it any way to what
are they say?

Speaker 4 (22:55):
Are they killing people? Why?

Speaker 6 (22:56):
Because of this individual? But they'll lose it. They'll lose it,
and they'll lose that argument too. They'll call it the
demonization of transgender folks. They need that fight, and Donald
Trump will grab the velvet rope and escort them into
this discussion like it's the VIP section of politics, and

(23:21):
they will lose at the bar they always do. This
will be that discussion, my wife tells me because I
made her do the one thing that I would never
ask any of you to do, and that's watch CNN.
We already have the identity of the shooter. CNN refuses

(23:46):
to name They them. Oh no, I wasn't kidding. They
them is what they refer to the shooter as. But
they don't have an identity even though it's already been
reported who the individual is. Did you want to say something,
Get on of Mike, go on microm phone. There's no reason,
but everybody knows who you are. No, you're not gonna

(24:07):
be on camera, unfortunately, go ahead.

Speaker 9 (24:09):
So Tim Walls is set to speak, and I just
wanted to point out, isn't there a speech of him
talking about how he's friends with.

Speaker 4 (24:17):
All of these school friends.

Speaker 9 (24:22):
That's okay, Yeah, you near me now, okay, So yeah,
Tim wall is about to speak, and he's going to
have to talk about one of his friends, this transgender school.

Speaker 4 (24:32):
Shooting that was during the debate.

Speaker 9 (24:33):
Don't give an I'm just saying, but he said himself
that these are all his friends, so all right, I'll
be waiting hear.

Speaker 4 (24:40):
What he has to say. It was buddy, okay.

Speaker 6 (24:42):
So we're about to find out what what Tim Wallas
is gonna say about this. But the bottom line is
that's going to be the new discussion. The new discussion
is going to be how Donald Trump and how the
administration is demonizing transgender folks, a discussion that he is
willing to have and we should have because our very

(25:05):
own William tong will more than likely join that fight.
In fact, perhaps somebody in the media should be getting.

Speaker 4 (25:17):
A response from William tong.

Speaker 6 (25:20):
And his lack of response to elviras said on the
matter where somebody ending up ended up harming themselves because
of the influence of individuals who we know are breaking
the law.

Speaker 4 (25:39):
William Tongue has gone above and beyond.

Speaker 6 (25:44):
To protect gender affirming care, which has only led to
depression and suicide for many of those kids in the
transgender community.

Speaker 4 (25:58):
He should be the first person made to answer for today.

Speaker 6 (26:02):
Because the word's going to get out and there's no
way of stopping it.

Speaker 4 (26:06):
This is not the Biden administration.

Speaker 6 (26:10):
When Trump gets word that the individual was of the
transgender community and they had an animus towards the Catholic community.
He is going to respond to it, and therefore everyone
else will have to either act like he never said
it or respond as they always do in the knee
jerk reaction. I expect the ladder, do you. Let's go

(26:35):
to the phones eight and zero five two two WT.
I see John's on the car. How are you John?

Speaker 10 (26:39):
Hey, Well, Eric, I've got a few different perspectives than
you over this lady's shooting. I mean, I agree with
you most of the time, but let me share my perspective. Sure,
I remember in high school I used to go to
high school. You know here we snow shootings of this capacity.

(27:02):
He had the ability to buy guns, not me. I
never owned a gun, and if I have to own
a gun, I'm moving out of the country. But besides that,
my father was a military Navy guy, and he was
a CEO, and he never wanted a gun in his house.
And he said the same statement. I've learned off of
my father. And the fact is guns don't kill people,

(27:27):
but people kill people. And the fact is that we
have a gun problem in this country. And I agree
with you that it's mental illness. Most of these shootings
that occurred in schools are for white suburban kids. He said,
we need it in We need cops in the elementary
schools and the high school. If you look at the data,

(27:49):
you don't see black shooting blacks, Hispanic shooting Hispanics. Take
your own city, for example, Harford. I don't think that
we had a murder like a New Connecticut. The one
down in textures are like the winning in the cot
out in Columbine. The fact of the matter is is
that we got a problem with mental illness. You call

(28:12):
the guy a crazy nutcase. Well, we can't address it
because mental health costs of fortune. I just finished watching
a documentary on how much psychiatrists and psychologists and mental
health experts charge in New York City four hundred and
five hundred dollars. And these teenagers and these elementary school

(28:34):
kids are yelling for guidance from us, the adults, And
we can't supply him with this because it's so damn expensive.
So if you remove the guns, we can work on
the mental health. But if you got the guns, guns
don't kill people. People kill people. It's more apt that
they can kill more people with a gun on our

(28:56):
fifteen or just a pistol than if they had a
knife or a baseball.

Speaker 4 (29:00):
Let me let me resp let me respond to you. John.

Speaker 6 (29:04):
I'm gonna respond a little bit, but I'm gonna hold
you over for a little intermission, and then I want
to talk to you a little bit further because you
make a lot of great points here. Obviously, mental health
is expensive in so many cases. We have some institutions,
but they you do have to pay for them, and
sometimes medicating other things don't cover that, and it would
probably bankrupt many, you know, states if they were to

(29:25):
give mental health treatment to a lot of the people
who need it. But I want to respond only slightly,
and when we come back, I will because you said
something related to shootings like Newtown and Columbine, as we
don't see them in the inner city, like something that
happened in Newtown would never ever happen in Hartford Public.
You do make a point, you want one hundred percent

(29:46):
right on that, But there also is something that you're
missing there and I don't want to and I don't
want it to be lost in this conversation, and I
want your response to my response when we get back,
So stay on hold.

Speaker 4 (29:57):
We'll take a break we'll come back. This is a very.

Speaker 6 (30:00):
Interesting point of view that John has, but I want
to address it still, So stand by.

Speaker 4 (30:04):
We'll be back.

Speaker 6 (30:05):
More news, more views than you can shake a stick.
It's recut a radio on WTIC News Talk ten eighty.
I want to go back to John in the car,
John by the way, and a great point that you
made about you know the shootings that we have, like
places in Newtown and Callumbine, those things happen in those vacuums.
You know, you have a Marjorie Stone which was in

(30:26):
Florida that took place and pretty much gave rise to
David Hogg. But there's something that you're missing here, and
I want your response to it. It's because I do
believe that proximity and behaviors are very important in this context.

(30:46):
We can name call um Bye, Newtown, Marjorie Stone, and
even the Pulse nightclub. We can name these events because
they are they have happen in.

Speaker 4 (31:03):
The way that some tragedies do sparingly.

Speaker 6 (31:09):
The reason why we never talk about the mass shootings
in black and brown communities is because they're every day.
We got two men who just got shot and killed
in a drive by in New Haven, two young men.

Speaker 4 (31:23):
Nobody even knows their name. They just found out their
names this morning.

Speaker 6 (31:27):
And again it is happened so rapidly, no one remembers
the name. There are so many people who die. You
had one year in Chicago. In fact, the average death
count in Chicago due to drive bys in violence is
the upwards of six hundred people a year. There were
only three hundred and sixty five days in a year,
so we're looking at an average of almost to a day.

(31:50):
So when we talk about the gun violence, people always
talk about the access to guns. The only preventative measures
we have are putting laws that law byers will abide by,
or people who take guns from law abiding citizens like kids,
teenagers and things like that. But when we talk about
the inner city, they're access to guns. They're being sold

(32:11):
on the street. Somebody said the other day. In fact,
one of my listeners said, we've got these Well, you
know who brings the guns into the communities.

Speaker 4 (32:19):
I'm like, who cares if they're being brought into the community.

Speaker 6 (32:22):
You don't buy an ice cream cone just because the
ice creamman drives by. You have to want the ice
cream cone. You have to go out and purchase the
ice cream cone. Are these people like commitment, have a
commitment to grabbing a gun and shooting their neighbors.

Speaker 4 (32:37):
So there's a difference here, Yes.

Speaker 10 (32:40):
Or no, I agree with you. I was going to
raise that point after I heard your point. Yeah, I
know there's an absence of reporting deaths amongst African Americans
or black men in inner cities. But I'll stick to
the premise that the data says that Caucasian, Middle and
Come Caucasians are the majority of the killings of youth

(33:02):
in school systems. Yes, that's a statistical point. I've been
an educator for forty one years. I think I can
compare the old America to the modern America. We are
losing it as a nation. Not only in that perspective,
but we have students coming to the class. They said
they should be protected by the adults. Since twent does
a grammar school kid I have to worry about not

(33:24):
returning home? One do they have to be paranoid as
the same by their moms.

Speaker 4 (33:31):
But John, let me I want to know because there's
something that you said that I want to get to.
Finishing point. Finishing point.

Speaker 10 (33:40):
Another point is is they should be learning reading, writing,
and arithmetic or not all this transsexual garbage in kindergarten
first grade. We agree in a lot of points, but
we are losing it.

Speaker 6 (33:52):
Eric, Well, okay, it's it's Reees, by the way, not Eric,
it's it's Rees.

Speaker 4 (33:58):
I'm sorry, it's okay. No, I don't.

Speaker 6 (34:00):
I don't want you to go off the beaten path.
You're right about learning, reading, writing, and arithmetics.

Speaker 4 (34:03):
But if I'm.

Speaker 6 (34:04):
Listening to you, John, wait, if I'm listening to you, John,
it sounds like look and what you're expressing is absolutely real,
and I agree with you. We have a rising tie
of these events that are happening in these schools, whether
it's for political reasons, transgender whatever in case, may be
social reasons. My question to you is this, If we're
to take your word for it that we're seeing a
rising rate of these incidents happening in our schools, and

(34:27):
when you know that they're going to happen there, then
it would be righteous for you to agree with me
with saying that we need to put law enforcement at
these front doors as preventative measures.

Speaker 11 (34:38):
Brainer, no brainer.

Speaker 8 (34:42):
But when you went to school, I don't.

Speaker 4 (34:44):
Know how old you are, your fifty six?

Speaker 12 (34:47):
All right?

Speaker 10 (34:48):
Fifty six. Well, I'm seventy one and I was in
school before you were. I went to a foreign school.
I came to the United States.

Speaker 4 (34:56):
You were in college before I was born.

Speaker 10 (34:57):
I think, yeah, And it this way, I didn't have
to see your guns. I didn't have to school was
a pleasure going to. Now there's metal detectors in inner
city schools and suburban schools. What the hell is going
on on? We we have turned schools into a paranoid
mess hall. It's a shame that kids can't go there

(35:20):
for a good education. Can that gets ranked second in
education nationally? That's nationally, not internationally. We're at the bottom
of the pile. And if we can't educate inner city kids,
we're in big trouble. But if we can't educate suburban kids,
we're in beginning.

Speaker 4 (35:36):
We're in bigger trouble, big trouble.

Speaker 10 (35:38):
We are not doing the job of education. And I'm
an educator, I've seen education over forty one years. I
have a right to say that we're going down the two.

Speaker 6 (35:50):
You adapt, you are right, and I'm glad that you
agree with me on the protecting our kids with law enforcement.

Speaker 4 (35:59):
It's got to be done now.

Speaker 6 (36:00):
Because if you're right, if the rising tide of this
is going on everywhere, we've got to combat it by
getting law enforcement involved, so we could stop it before before.

Speaker 10 (36:09):
And as you said, as you said, inner city kids
can buy weapons, they can make three D guns. Hey,
they're not the law biding one. The criminals are the
criminals right?

Speaker 4 (36:19):
What they and got to start shooting such and.

Speaker 10 (36:22):
They'll override that.

Speaker 4 (36:24):
John.

Speaker 10 (36:24):
If we can put a stop to the in issue
and an issue issue into the gun in this country,
and then we could attack the mental health.

Speaker 8 (36:34):
Maybe that's of course you have to do.

Speaker 10 (36:35):
Because the minute I have to buy a gun to
protect myself, I'm out of here.

Speaker 4 (36:40):
I hear you, John, John, thank you.

Speaker 6 (36:42):
I'm sorry I got to go to the top of
the hour News with John Silva, but very good discussion.
We'll extend it and we won't do headlines when we
come back, so we'll take some more phone calls who
are on the line. Now, let's go to News with
John Silva. It's res on radio on w t i
C News Talk Tandy. We'll get the headlines in the
little bit. We've got the phones ring it up, so
we'll get to that. This is again one of those

(37:04):
things that we have to get into.

Speaker 4 (37:05):
A discussion early.

Speaker 6 (37:07):
Sometimes the program doesn't go as planned, but that's okay.
I want to play this because you might remember last
year during the Senate election with Chris Murphy, Chris Murphy
was asked about school officers school resource officers, and Chris

(37:28):
Murphy said during that debate that he never called for
the end of SROs.

Speaker 13 (37:34):
Does removing a trained armed officer make schools safer?

Speaker 14 (37:39):
You have ninety seconds.

Speaker 15 (37:40):
Well, I actually haven't introduced legislation to remove school resource officers.
I've introduced legislation to direct federal funding towards social workers
and psychologists that I think are very badly needed. I
actually think it should be up to every individual school
district as to whether they have armed officers, and I
support their decisions when they choose to bring those security

(38:00):
personnel into the schools.

Speaker 16 (38:02):
But he was lying, ladies and gentlemen, I'll new for
you tonight at eleven police shouldn't be in schools.

Speaker 17 (38:09):
That thought coming from Connecticut Senator Chris Murphy.

Speaker 7 (38:12):
Now, he along with three other lawmakers, are introducing a
bill that would pave the way to get officers out
of schools.

Speaker 4 (38:20):
Channel three I and SEUs reporter Matthews, not.

Speaker 6 (38:21):
To get a few out, not to get some out.

Speaker 4 (38:26):
To get them all out.

Speaker 6 (38:29):
The guy who's pretty much fashioned his career around Newtown
wants nothing to do with having officers there to protect them. Immediately,
assuming that the school resource officer is there in some
way to impede on the students instead of protect them.

(38:49):
And that's the way it's looked upon, right the police officer.

Speaker 4 (38:54):
He'll be in the inner city.

Speaker 6 (38:55):
There will be black kids there and brown kids there,
and we all secretly no wink wink, nod nod that
blacks and browns just can't help themselves from committing crimes.
So we can't have a police officer there waiting for
them to do it. We want to be able to,
you know, act like none of it happened, and then

(39:15):
charge them with the lesser of crime so they can
go out and commit it again. We can't have police
officers in the inner city.

Speaker 4 (39:24):
They're the bad guys. So look, I say that half
tongue in cheek, but you get the idea. That's what
this whole argument is.

Speaker 6 (39:37):
Law enforcement is the oppressor enforcing the law, and what
do we know about these folks who will not protect
these kids.

Speaker 4 (39:48):
They don't like the law. They hate it. Hell, they
hate the Constitution.

Speaker 6 (39:53):
Every day there's an effort to uproot it, change it around,
dismiss it.

Speaker 4 (40:00):
Look at them.

Speaker 6 (40:01):
They want to stack the Supreme Court, and then when
the Supreme Court doesn't rule in their favor, they want
to just ignore the Supreme Court. They have absolutely no contact.
I mean, it's who they are. The law is a
deterrent to them, and they pick and choose when they

(40:21):
wish to abide by it. Let's go to my good
friend Simons Mary Joe. We haven't heard from him in
a while.

Speaker 4 (40:26):
How are we doing, sir, I'm doing well.

Speaker 11 (40:28):
How are you doing?

Speaker 4 (40:29):
I'm all right, mister buddy, same here, right back at you.

Speaker 11 (40:34):
Unfortunately, when you go visit the communist country, they don't
allow you to have access to listen to your program.
So for those people that are wondering what I'm talking
about in Canada, even with a VPN where I was
on vacation, you cannot access w T I C.

Speaker 14 (40:55):
Wow.

Speaker 11 (40:57):
Yeah, they block it.

Speaker 4 (40:59):
We're on the bend. Listen Canada. Yep, all right, Roland,
you know what new promotion we need to work on?

Speaker 11 (41:08):
Yeah, so I'm very wired up, wired up, but I'm
not sure that's right term. I'm fired up about this
whole trans thing. I've called you and I called Tom
before many times talking about very strong opinions on this
whole trans and trans violence thing. Yeah, we talked about
the Zizians before, for example. Let me give an example

(41:32):
for people here, see if I can get my point across.
I'm not saying this, but if I said to you
in the audience that I think that this country would
be better off if we just euthanized everyone over seventy five,
what would people think about me? I think that I'm nuts,

(41:53):
I'm delusional, I need a lot of help.

Speaker 4 (41:56):
Some people might agree with it seems very.

Speaker 11 (42:01):
Yeah, but I think they listen to NPR, So I
think that that most people would would say that. So
what is the difference between me saying that and wanting
to remove my body parts? We have to start recognizing
that trans people, not the ones who are just playing

(42:25):
the game of oh, I want to be a boy,
I want to, you know, and have not taken any
action towards it. Those that really want to and have
taken any kind of action towards a process of removing
their body parts are delusional, and we need to as
a society make a decision about getting these people to

(42:50):
get the help that they need, not the affirming care
that they need, the help that they need. When I
was a child, these people, I would not know them.
Why because they'd be in the Institute for Living or
they'd be in Middletown. Society would not tolerate that.

Speaker 6 (43:06):
I hope you met the Middletown facility, not just in
the town.

Speaker 11 (43:14):
Fred would tell you that they're walking around the town.
So here's here's the issue that we're going to be
hearing about over the next few days. The trans people
are no more violent when it comes to mass shootings
than the average member of the black community. About that,

(43:35):
or you know what about these people who were not
trans who went and they shot up their school or
they shot up at gay night clubs or something like that.
We're what we are not being told though, And this
is why I feel so strongly about trans people who
are taking any action to remove body parts need to
get the best care that we can provide, even if

(43:56):
it means raising our taxes, which I know people won't like.
Is that this is the group that has decided to
target young children that they don't know, that they don't
have a beef with. It is a very different shooting
from the guy who goes driving up Almoney Avenue and

(44:17):
unloads on some people that he thinks may have wronged
him in a drug deal, or the or the kid
who goes to the high school and wants to shoot
the bullies who are who were doing stuff. This is
the group specifically that has made the targeting of children
in a christiansh Catholic school their target. And we have

(44:38):
a choice as a society. Are we going to take
this or are we going to put our foot down?
And I'm going to bring up Adam Lonza in closing here.
Adam Lonzo was not trans. We have heard nothing at
all about him being trans. But I'll tell you one
thing that Adam Lonzo was. Adam Lonzo would best be
described as non sense.

Speaker 4 (45:01):
Okay, I'm sorry.

Speaker 11 (45:02):
There is not much difference for me between a person
who is non sexual even though he was a male
he had no interest in young women back age, and
someone who is trans and you know, worried about their
gender identity. It is a messed up situation and we
need to we need to put our foot down because

(45:25):
one of these days it's going to be a lot
more than two children. Yeah, it's going to be a
lot more than three twos.

Speaker 4 (45:31):
Well, we had three, and we had three of the
last we had three in the.

Speaker 6 (45:34):
Nashville situation was a transgender killed three kids. And but
to write about that, I take both of these incidents
at heart what you're saying, Joe, and that is why
are they targeting innocent children who have never had an opinion?
We know nothing that we could possibly suggest that small
children would have no interest, much less conversation that would

(46:00):
warrant an attack like this, Like little kids in a
Catholic school or Christian school are not running around demonizing
those in the transgender community. The reason why they're being
attacked is because they believe they're going after the youngest
who are being taught Christianity and Catholicisms and seeing them
as a threat, like getting rid of them, like going
back in time and hurting baby Hitler.

Speaker 4 (46:24):
You know what I mean?

Speaker 11 (46:25):
When in the day that I see trans people doing
drive bys of you know, drug dealers, or trans people
going into an adult situation and unloading their weapon, is
the day that I don't have to call and say, hey,
I was wrong. But right now, as I look at it,
they're sending a signal to us. I believe that's to

(46:48):
us as to whether or not anyone's home to accept
that signal and what we're going to do about it.

Speaker 4 (46:53):
Yeah, thank you, Joe much of Preermich. You got it, sir,
welcome home. Let's go to Walter. He's on his cell.
How are you, sir?

Speaker 18 (47:01):
Yeah, nice to talk with jobies when you're brought up.
Chris Murphy, it was it has to be. As a
year probably two years ago, Ted Cruz was trying they
had Senate hearings and Ted Cruz was trying to get
a bill passed to provide fifty billion dollars to put
office policemen or guards in every private or public school

(47:24):
in the country, and Chris Murphy killed it.

Speaker 4 (47:28):
Yeah, and walked out of the hearing where he was
having an open debate with.

Speaker 6 (47:34):
Ted Cruz, only to go out to the cameras to
admonish him.

Speaker 4 (47:39):
Yeah, yeah, I have I think I have that video
somewhere around here.

Speaker 6 (47:43):
But yeah, Ted Cruse was was evident. Aside from the
fact that he was ticked off at the stunt that
Chris Murphy was pulling. But he also expressed it It's
like this was never about a discussion. This was an
opportunity to go out there to the cameras and say,
you know, see these bad Republicans. And it's always the

(48:04):
case with Chris Murphy. This guy doesn't care about the
kids of Newtown. He cares about the stunts and and
and and the people on the platitudes that he can
make on their behalf or use them as a cudgel
against people who are opposed to him, but he has
no interest in protecting them.

Speaker 19 (48:19):
Absolutely, thank you about did.

Speaker 10 (48:21):
You see did you?

Speaker 8 (48:22):
Did you see the video on.

Speaker 4 (48:24):
X I did, of course, I've seen it several times. Crazy, Yeah,
all right, thank you man.

Speaker 6 (48:30):
And what Walter is talking about the ex of the
ex post of this person, uh, the shooter. And one
of the first images you see is a target with
a picture of Jesus Christ, because again that's always been
the biggest issue in this area. Now, some people in

(48:52):
the LGBTQ community are going to be offended by me
saying this, but I'm sorry, I didn't bring this on.

Speaker 4 (48:57):
I didn't bring this fight. You did.

Speaker 6 (49:01):
And people have pooh poohed and dismissed it, but I'm
gonna say it again. Catholics and Christians have always been
the soft target for the LGBTQ community. I asked this
question thirty years ago before I ever did radio, and
I asked it again when I got into radio. On

(49:23):
every one of my shows, I ask it all the time,
and no one's ever answered it, especially those in the
lgbtwo community. But if you are of that community, I
would beg beg to get an answer from you. Why
is it that when people protest gay marriage, lifestyles, any
of those things in that community, they only go to

(49:44):
Christians and Catholics. They never go to Muslims, they never
go to synagogues, they only go to the Christian faith?
And why is it because of the old adage of
turning the other cheek? Is it because you know there'll
be no retribution? Is it because you know that a

(50:06):
certain group of people might, and probably would, in their
own backyard, toss individuals off a roof. I always harken
back to this, folks and listen, this is not a joke.
You can look it up yourself. You can always go
and check it out. Columbia University Mahmoud Ahmedinajad giving a

(50:32):
lecture at Columbia University. Now in retrospect, it sort of
makes sense, right. The Iranian president, who hates Jews hates gays,
was asked by one of the attendees of his lecture,
what do Iranian gaze do in Iran? And his response was,

(50:56):
there are no gays in Iran. The girls, Adam, and
absolutely there are.

Speaker 4 (51:02):
We know of them.

Speaker 10 (51:04):
You do.

Speaker 4 (51:06):
Where are they?

Speaker 6 (51:09):
And I don't think that little small mind of mush
knew exactly what she was getting into. But where I
come from, that was called dry snitching because mack Mudochmdena
John went to Tyran and said to the Ayatola.

Speaker 4 (51:26):
Do you know we have gays in our country?

Speaker 6 (51:32):
And you can damn well bet that they went out
to go find them. You can damn well bet that
there was an effort to locate them.

Speaker 4 (51:42):
That young lady thought, oh, the gay thing that's everywhere. Yay.

Speaker 6 (51:48):
She didn't know who she was talking to, and she
thought that Mack Mudoch Madenijodd being at Columbia University still
clearly he must be one of them. It's funny how
these folks get wait of call after the fact, But
again I ask why are they always at the Catholic faith?
Why are they always attacking the Christian faith? Why is

(52:09):
it because they're known for their forgiveness. Why is it
because they've known to rally around one another and rely
on their Lord and Savior of Jesus Christ. Why is
it because they're not known to lash out against those
who were opposed to them. Maybe perhaps they are the

(52:31):
soft target that these people need in order to shame
and embarrass and to desecrate. This isn't to say that
Christians should come outside of themselves. This is not saying
that they should change their tactics. But this should be
a wake up call, That's all I'm saying. You might

(52:54):
want to consider it. Let's go to Courtney and hanging
out with us today. What's going on Courtney? All the
way out in Fresne, California.

Speaker 4 (53:03):
Court Are you there?

Speaker 16 (53:05):
I don't know how.

Speaker 4 (53:06):
You doing pretty good? What's up?

Speaker 19 (53:08):
Hey?

Speaker 16 (53:09):
I was gonna say to hear a comment about the Christians.
They probably go towards the Christians and the Catholics because
they're known for gays stuff.

Speaker 4 (53:15):
Okay, King James, what was the name of King James?
He was I would go back. I would go back
to one of the earlier popes in fact.

Speaker 6 (53:24):
But my question is is why would they if they
if they think that they're an ally, why would they
go there and and admonish them and attack them in
a fashion that they do.

Speaker 16 (53:35):
I comment to that. So it's crazy to me. It's
so many things are as crazy. It's insane to me.
It's insane to me that we're actually weaving the people
are trying to make sense of a psychopath, you know,
like the fact that he's what he was gay, if
he was if he was black and he went and
killed a whole bunch of white people, it would be
because they were white and he was black. Or if
it was white, if they were white and went and

(53:56):
killed a whole bunch of black people, it would be,
oh's has to because they hated black people. Or now
he's gay, so it has to be because he's a transgender,
or it's against the LGB or at the game.

Speaker 4 (54:08):
Have you seen his post?

Speaker 16 (54:10):
No, No, Granted, he was a radical, he was a
radical psychopath. Although he probably did he probably he probably
did think he was doing it for that under that name,
But I don't think that it should be tied to
the whole community, because why not that he's a psychopath,
Because he's a psychopath.

Speaker 6 (54:26):
But wait, hold on, hold on, hold on, that's the way.
Wait before you go any further. And this it's important
distinction that you're making here. You're saying, don't associate him
with the thing he associated himself with.

Speaker 16 (54:38):
Yeah i am, because look, I'm I am a tax paying,
law abiding citizen.

Speaker 8 (54:45):
I do not.

Speaker 16 (54:46):
Steal and I work. Should I get treated like the
black people that shoot everybody and cause chaos and that crazy?

Speaker 4 (54:53):
Oh no, no, see.

Speaker 6 (54:54):
But now see again, what you just did is exactly
the opposite of what I just described. See, what I'm
saying thing is is that if you are a law
abiding African American working class individual and you associate yourself
with the gang banging shooters, that's different.

Speaker 4 (55:10):
What I'm saying is that I'm associating No.

Speaker 6 (55:13):
No, I'm associating him with the thing he associated himself with.
All I'm saying is he doesn't get to be just
a shooter who happens to be gay or part of
the LGBTQ community.

Speaker 4 (55:24):
What he gets to be is the thing that he pronounced.

Speaker 6 (55:28):
If he says, I'm shooting these people because I want
justice from my group of people. He's associated with the
group of people he aligned with, So he set the president.

Speaker 10 (55:37):
Not me.

Speaker 16 (55:39):
Yeah, but he set his president because he is a psychopath.
He didn't set the president for the for the community.
It's not like the community set him to do that.

Speaker 6 (55:49):
Oh no, no, no, we got old on. Hold on, Courtey,
let me put you on the whole real quick. We
get you on the other side. We gotta take a break.
It's a heart break coming up. All right, stand by,
We got more, Courtney and more of this topic. When
we were turning in. Of course, leads in the phone calls.
It's reesa on or radio on WTIC news Stalk.

Speaker 4 (56:03):
Ten eighty, whoa, whoa.

Speaker 3 (56:04):
Hold up, let's not put all one hundred candles on
the cake.

Speaker 1 (56:07):
Slow your roll. That's a fire hazard.

Speaker 3 (56:09):
Then there's expensive radio equipment in here, and I'm not
quite sure what I'm wearing his fireproof.

Speaker 4 (56:15):
Let's get back to the phones. Courtney and is on
the line.

Speaker 6 (56:19):
I get your point saying that we as people should
not align people with certain groups.

Speaker 4 (56:25):
Nonetheless, that's yeah, nonetheless, that's going to happen, you know,
whether we like it or not.

Speaker 6 (56:31):
But in this particular case, you know, I have got
to like if some like the Pulse Nightclub. The Pulse
Nightclub shooter was an Islamist who shot up the gay
nightclub and then when he realized he had people inside
bathroom stalls, he was shooting.

Speaker 4 (56:51):
Into the stalls as they were hiding into them.

Speaker 6 (56:54):
And then stopped and asked if anyone in the stalls
was African American and said, if you are black, you
have to come out because you suffered enough.

Speaker 4 (57:06):
That's what this animal said.

Speaker 6 (57:08):
Yeah, yeah, Actually, now I know you're saying that that's insane,
but look, I always say, at the end of the day,
right all of this, what we know of this particular
person who you're calling a maniac, the shooter in in
uh is it Nashville?

Speaker 4 (57:26):
Right at the other Catholic school, as many of.

Speaker 6 (57:29):
These mass shooters that we catch, the one in New
York City just recently, what's the one thing that most
of them, if not all, do Columbine, even the one
that kind of started it all. They all take their no,
they all take their own lives at the end of it.
And then we read a manifesto that says that they
are either planning to die, knew they were going to die,

(57:51):
So we can say this old psychotic or mental break
or whatever it is. But they all they had the
wherewithal to write a manifesto, had the wherewithal to know
that they were going to die, and wherewithal too know
that their lives were going to end. So at what
level do we call them psychopaths?

Speaker 4 (58:07):
Courtney?

Speaker 16 (58:08):
I mean, so you're saying that because they knew all
that makes them not a psychopath. I don't think a
psychopath has anything to do with the knowing of you're
going to die or knowing that you.

Speaker 19 (58:16):
Want to kill yourself.

Speaker 16 (58:17):
I think a psychopath is your mind is chaotically yanky
to where it would cause you to go shoot up.
Some kids like that.

Speaker 10 (58:24):
I don't.

Speaker 8 (58:25):
I feel like, no, no, I'm not.

Speaker 4 (58:26):
I'm not disagreeing with you. But let me put it
this way.

Speaker 6 (58:28):
So maybe I'm doing this without your knowledge, or maybe
I'm doing this when you're not, when you're not trying
to what I hear when someone says says these people
are psychotic, it's a dismissive tone to the fact that
they are well aware of what they're doing. In other words, saying, well,
they're psychotic, so their mind was warped and they don't

(58:50):
know what like giving them a passay and they don't
really know what they're doing.

Speaker 16 (58:54):
I don't no, no, no, I don't mean that.

Speaker 6 (58:56):
Okay, Oh no, no, I apologize like I'm the one
who's I'm putting ten on the two on this one.

Speaker 20 (59:02):
I don't.

Speaker 16 (59:02):
Yeah, I get what you're saying, like, no, they shouldn't
plea insanity and know the heck, no, they know what
they're doing and they are something's wrong with them. They're
they're screws loose. I mean, like they should you know.

Speaker 19 (59:12):
But let me say this.

Speaker 16 (59:13):
This is what's the craziest part to me. It's crazy.
All the things, these bad things, these shootings that happen
in America, right, how why do we always have to
turn them political? Why do we always have to turn
it into a Democrat Republican thing? Like I saw someone
comment on your on your post and they said democrats
love violence, Like that's that's sort of a weird thing
to say, Like I don't believe that.

Speaker 4 (59:35):
I will. I did not.

Speaker 6 (59:37):
I did not so far make this political and if
it's political on any no.

Speaker 4 (59:43):
No, I know that, but that hey, look, you got
to give them.

Speaker 6 (59:45):
Look, they're gonna do what they're gonna do, and I
leave and I leave it at that. But let me
say this. The only political or politicization as I put it,
I hate that word. The only politicization I find in
this is are people who are in charge in places
like get who refuse to do the thing that's necessary.
This idea that police officers at the schools are bad optics.

(01:00:09):
They fail to recognize the only optics we care about
are the optics that deter the shooter. Like when they
see the cops, I want them to say that optic
says I can't go in there with a gun because
it's not a soft target. They're gonna be people shooting back.
That's the optics I care about.

Speaker 19 (01:00:26):
Let me take two things.

Speaker 16 (01:00:27):
One to that, or we just get every teacher to
be licensed to carry no, or I mean why not.

Speaker 4 (01:00:34):
No, no, no.

Speaker 6 (01:00:35):
What I'm saying is is that that's not what they're
trained for, and I don't need them to be. Look,
it's bad enough we can barely get them to actually
teach kids to read. What I want them to do
is to be focused on is actually teaching the children
and knowing that they're safe. I don't want teachers doing
active shooter drills. I want police officers they are guarding them.

Speaker 16 (01:00:55):
Take it from a woman. When you have a gun
in your purse, you feel stafer than.

Speaker 8 (01:00:59):
You've ever gold.

Speaker 4 (01:01:01):
I have a wife who carries so I know.

Speaker 10 (01:01:04):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (01:01:04):
Oh yeah, go ahead, sate man.

Speaker 16 (01:01:06):
I feel so safe when I'm in my house. Oh,
you have no idea, But so this is what I
want to say. So to the ones that are making
that political right, it's just funny, Like, so we're not
even to the transgender the people that are cutting their
general parts off and mutilating themselves, right, what about the
doctors that are the ones performing is like, at what
point are we holding everybody accountable?

Speaker 4 (01:01:26):
Like, hey, we open this camp, we opened.

Speaker 16 (01:01:28):
The doors box, and this is exactly what.

Speaker 4 (01:01:30):
We are trying our best.

Speaker 6 (01:01:32):
I mean, that's the reason why we got to president
of the United States.

Speaker 16 (01:01:34):
You know, Hey, trying, trying is lying. I always say
that trying is lying. Trying is what people that fail
tell themselves so they don't have to admit theate.

Speaker 6 (01:01:41):
Well, no, no, no, when I say trying is right now,
we have clinics right here in Connecticut and other places
in New England that are shutting down operations for transgender care.
And in fact, what do we have guys like William
Tong who is suing the administration to allow that to continue.

Speaker 4 (01:01:56):
So would I say trying, we're trying.

Speaker 19 (01:01:58):
To thwart them to get some kahunas.

Speaker 16 (01:02:00):
I think people need to go find the kahunas because look,
even a Republican, whatever party you're for, if you see
the other party doing some stuff that is not okay,
why are you not fighting forget a protest? Protests don't work.
Peacefully doing anything has never got anybody anywhere?

Speaker 4 (01:02:15):
Are you calling for violence? Courtney? Yeah, I am Oh
you can't.

Speaker 6 (01:02:19):
No, no, no, no, that's never gonna work because guess
what it gains. I will tell you it doesn't. Because
ask Antifa, ask antifo, how is that? How that's worked
for them?

Speaker 4 (01:02:30):
What we need to do is look in the same category.

Speaker 16 (01:02:33):
Yeah, and America, ask America how that works for them.
America is the one who taught me that I'm not
getting this from my own thoughts, I'm getting this from.

Speaker 4 (01:02:40):
That is that is no.

Speaker 6 (01:02:43):
Actually, Courtney, Courtney, give me a second, Give me a second, Courtney, Courtney,
give me a second, give me a second, that that
suggestion that violence is what built America has always been false.

Speaker 4 (01:02:57):
No, no, no, that is it.

Speaker 1 (01:02:58):
Listen.

Speaker 6 (01:02:58):
That is nonsensical stuff that the so called Ivy League,
African American scholars, and very radical liberals have been telling
people for the longest. We have groups like the Weather
Underground who believed that bombing the Pentagon was going to
get them in their righteous path.

Speaker 4 (01:03:15):
That never worked.

Speaker 6 (01:03:16):
There's these so called violence that people keep thinking, these
you know, these certain these certain groups or whatever it
are is, who think that violence is going to get
the meanstre ends. What you're asking for is fascism. And
what you're asking for is the thing. Hold on, Cordy,
it's the thing that you're asking for, okay, is the
thing that never works and only results in people revolting

(01:03:38):
to your cause because guess what, In the end, only
innocent people end up hurt because they never go after
the people that they so called want to go after.

Speaker 4 (01:03:45):
They always go after innocence.

Speaker 6 (01:03:46):
You have to also think about this, what the actions
of this shooter did today that was political in their
sense because what they thought was their mission, their ideals
were being ignored and they hated living in the world,
world that that rejected their ideas, and what did they
choose to get results to affect two children and a

(01:04:07):
dozen others. So that violence never ever works because right
now it's only caused us to revolt.

Speaker 4 (01:04:13):
But I got I do have to go, Courtney, I do.

Speaker 16 (01:04:15):
I gotta get to America. America does say if you mess,
we will we will blow you up.

Speaker 4 (01:04:20):
Yeah, it's called mess with us first. It's called mess
with us first. But yeah, we need to be we
need to deter all types of that book we don't. Yeah, okay,
thank you, Courtney.

Speaker 6 (01:04:34):
Just that kind of nonsense is so faculty. It just
is so absolute faculty. It never worked for the Weather Underground,
It never worked for any of these groups, every one
of them. And the objective is always to instill fear.
That's not to actually get results. Is to instill fear

(01:04:55):
that's not fighting for anything, that's actually trying to scare
and hard people.

Speaker 4 (01:05:00):
That's the way that always goes. Ken is in Meridan,
how are you?

Speaker 12 (01:05:05):
I'm good?

Speaker 21 (01:05:06):
How are you doing?

Speaker 4 (01:05:07):
I'm alright? So what's up that.

Speaker 22 (01:05:09):
That girl can talk? Oh God, I was waiting and
wait until I was like, I'm getting close to where
I gotta be.

Speaker 8 (01:05:19):
I don't know if I'm gonna get my car.

Speaker 4 (01:05:21):
I got you, buddy? What's up?

Speaker 22 (01:05:23):
A couple things. First thing, if we want to see
school shooting stop, what we need to do when you
mentioned it, but we have to get rid of the
bill that Joe Biden US put into law. He was
the one that wrote it.

Speaker 19 (01:05:41):
Uh yeah, what is it? Gun free zones?

Speaker 22 (01:05:46):
Yes, schools and churches are gun free zones because of
a bill that Joe Biden right ninety three or ninety four,
I don't remember what year it was, but that's when
he was a senator. That's what he did. So that's
why schools are soft targets and I don't even know guards.

Speaker 4 (01:06:05):
Can you explain that to me? What is a gun
free zone?

Speaker 6 (01:06:09):
Who were they talking to and targeting when they say
to them, don't bring a gun in here.

Speaker 4 (01:06:14):
Who are they talking to? I mean, I have an answer,
but I'd love to hear you and me maybe people
like you and me.

Speaker 22 (01:06:21):
Who're talking to.

Speaker 4 (01:06:23):
Okay, that's who they're talking to.

Speaker 22 (01:06:24):
They're talking to.

Speaker 21 (01:06:25):
They don't want guns anywhere, they don't want anything to happen. Well,
you know what my Second Amendment right. I should be
able to carry wherever I want, with some exceptions, but
the school.

Speaker 22 (01:06:40):
Should be one. And I disagree with the guy that's
and I don't remember if it was, Yeah, it was
the guy that was before Courtney that said school teachers
should be armed. I disagree with that wholehearted.

Speaker 4 (01:06:52):
I think said that too.

Speaker 22 (01:06:53):
With what you.

Speaker 21 (01:06:54):
Said, Okay, I agree with what you said.

Speaker 22 (01:06:58):
Put armed guards. You have retired police officers, you have
retired military like myself. I'd be willing to do it
for peanuts. Do you know guys having armed guards and
schools you have to make them harder targets.

Speaker 4 (01:07:16):
Help me out with this real quick before we go
to a break.

Speaker 6 (01:07:19):
If I'm right about this, and if you're a police
officer out there in fact, ruddy, if you're out there,
John Rotowski, if you're listening to the show, I need
to know if this is the case.

Speaker 4 (01:07:29):
But by the way, Ken, thank you so much. Let
me let you go, buddy, because I gotta get to
a break in a second. Let me ask this question.
Thank you, you got it.

Speaker 6 (01:07:35):
Sorry, ready, let me ask you this because I'm almost
certain because I know that the detective Arbujo, who I
know very well, because we're involved in my life.

Speaker 4 (01:07:50):
Personally.

Speaker 6 (01:07:51):
He retired and then came back to get a particular pension.
Tell me if I'm right, is there a way that
we can get a school resource officer who's like, let's say,
needs extra years to get his pension. He's about to retire.
Couldn't those officers do the job where they're guarding schools

(01:08:13):
like it's a part of their retirement package that you know,
saying if I need, I've got twenty years, but I
need twenty five and I can do five years as
a resource office. Tell medy let me know if that's
the case. And ready, if you're listening, please let me know,
send me a text or something.

Speaker 4 (01:08:26):
Let's take a break. We'll come back. There's a whole
slew of phone calls in here, and I'll get to
them when we return. It's res on radio on WTIC
News Talk ten eighty.

Speaker 1 (01:08:34):
It's Race on the radio on Newstalk ten eight WT.
I see Icee.

Speaker 6 (01:08:38):
All right, We're back, and the phones are literally off
the hook. The comments are everywhere. I got to read
a couple of them right now. Scripture I the Lord
bring in the light, I bring in the darkness. I
create evil either the Lord do all these things like
it or not. God works on both sides of this.
Raymond Wright. Lauri Rights, Lori m Rights. The dark evil

(01:09:03):
is coming against the light of good, she writes. Lauri
l Research Department says, in my opinion, it's an effort
to discredit God's presence by allowing the evil to exist.
Let me see some more in here. A lot of
people are coming in. Donald says, rees, I do agree
that the black community must take a personal responsibility for

(01:09:26):
gun violence. However, the ready availability of guns is a
huge concern. Yeah, it is a huge concern. But again,
this is that thing I don't I'm gonna say something,
and I gotta say it.

Speaker 4 (01:09:43):
I don't think that people know that kids in the
inner city have choices, even the kids in the inner city,
And I think I think that's a problem. There is
a brainwashing, for lack of a better term, that happens

(01:10:04):
in the inner city.

Speaker 6 (01:10:07):
They do not believe that they have a choice in
all of this. If drugs are in your community, you
can choose not to take them or not to sell them.
You can choose to You don't have a racial commitment
to these things. You don't have a hood commitment to
any of these things because they sell drugs or sell

(01:10:31):
guns in your community. You do not have to join
a gang. You have no commitment. This does not make
you blacker or more hood or more of a representative
of those things.

Speaker 4 (01:10:44):
You have a choice.

Speaker 14 (01:10:47):
Yeah, well I agree with you to a certain extent.

Speaker 4 (01:10:54):
Okay, Well tell me where you do where you stop.

Speaker 2 (01:10:57):
Sometimes kids are four, yes, from from older brothers, cousins, uncles,
family members.

Speaker 14 (01:11:06):
Is is is those are gang families? Yeah, some of
them don't have a choice.

Speaker 4 (01:11:11):
Yes, those are gang families and they do exist. They do.
But other stuff you don't have to, I mean other people.

Speaker 14 (01:11:19):
Outside for the most part, for the most like, you
have a choice.

Speaker 4 (01:11:25):
Right exactly.

Speaker 6 (01:11:26):
You have no racial commitment to any of these stereotypes.
It will not when you favor with your friends. You know,
we used to have this saying that says, you know,
when those friends are dead and gone, you're left there
holding the bag right when you get into trouble. They
don't exist anymore. They're not there to hold you down,
as they say. So you have no racial commitment to

(01:11:48):
any of it. It doesn't make you authentically black in
any way. You can do whatever you want to do.
It's okay, let's good, get our first checker.

Speaker 14 (01:11:59):
Whether it's anyway is okay? Oh you're dropping bars?

Speaker 4 (01:12:01):
All right, bro, let's get our first second whether traffic.
Bob Larks has got weather and Mark Krismer he's in
the VPS traffic center. Hey Mark, who's coming? I think
he'll be there in a second. Almost there. I hang
out as long as I need to be honest.

Speaker 14 (01:12:22):
I guess we're gonna go. Then no, okay, I don't
hear him.

Speaker 4 (01:12:24):
All right, we'll go to Weather.

Speaker 3 (01:12:25):
Then it's Reese on the radio. Brind don't say we
didn't mourn you on News Talk ten eighty w T.

Speaker 6 (01:12:35):
I see all right, Resuner Radio, we are back. Let's
do this thing because you know, we gotta do it
every day for Between And congratulations to Maureen C. In
West Hartford. She is today's winner of the Between Rounds

That's our E E S E on the Radio dot
com you gotta enter all of your information. That means
phone number and your data birth I don't care how
old y'aw you gotta put it in there. You must
live in the state of Connecticut, and and you cannot
have won within the last six months. By the way,
I gotta get to one of these winners that had

(01:13:29):
a problem getting their certificate. I totally forgot them when
I was in Connecticut.

Speaker 4 (01:13:34):
But I will fix it. And I apologize that I
didn't get to it, but I'll find a way to
fix it.

Speaker 6 (01:13:38):
I will deal with Jerry and make sure he takes
care of it all right, and with that when we return.
I totally forgot this because I didn't even realize it
was Wednesday, and with the breaking news of the Annunciation
Catholic School shooting, I got caught up in that. But
you guys, remember that last week we went to the
Superior Court in Hartford because there was a testimony by

(01:14:02):
the public and by attorneys trying to get the.

Speaker 4 (01:14:05):
Release of the tape or video of the.

Speaker 6 (01:14:09):
Assault on Jay Allen Jones. His mother was there. We're
gonna be talking to her very soon, the mother of
his child. We're also going to be talking to her
very soon. But today we're going to talk to Attorney
Alex Taubas, who is representing the Connecticut Examiner.

Speaker 4 (01:14:26):
He was there and he gave public statements as well.

Speaker 6 (01:14:28):
We're going to talk to him about his effort to
get this video tape released, which is very reminiscent of
the days of the Ram Emmanuel Lakwan McDonald case, and
I'm sure he's familiar with. We'll talk to him about
that after we get back from Whether in Traffic, and

(01:14:48):
this is an important case right now, there's going to
be I guess a written response by the judge in
this I don't know what it looks like. Well, asked
Alex about it and whether the chances of this being
released will happen. Of course, he will talk about his
efforts to get Tom to back off off this thing

(01:15:09):
and get the video released, and what he thinks about it.
I'll ask him a whole bunch of questions, so stand
by for that when we returned. Now, let's get another
check of Whether in Traffic with Bob Larsen and Mark
Christopher's at the BPS Traffic Center.

Speaker 3 (01:15:21):
Hey, Mark, it's Reese on the radio on News ten WT.

Speaker 1 (01:15:25):
I see, I see all.

Speaker 6 (01:15:27):
Right, we're back, folks on the line with us as promised.
Attornity attorney Alex Thomas is, why do I want to
say tobs but it's thobas and my pronounce it correctly.
Alex Talbos, Yeah, okay, and you are again. You have
your own firm, but you are here in this case

(01:15:48):
representing the Connecticut Examiner in essence suing the state to
release the tapes of j Allen Jones's death and the
events that led to it. Explain to us one what
you're trying to do. Well, let's talk about how you
got involved in this case.

Speaker 19 (01:16:08):
Thank you so much, Reese. My name is Alex Talbus.
I'm a civil rights attorney in New Haven, Connecticut, and
I represent many incarcerated people who are suing the state
for a variety of reasons, many of them wrongfully convicted
of crimes they didn't commit, others who have been subjected
to brutal abuses in the prison environment. And I also

(01:16:31):
represent a lot of other different types of organizations, in
this instance, a newspaper in Connecticut, Connecticut Examiner ctexaminer dot com.
They've hired me because they disagree with the government's decision
to keep the video of a prisoner's death secret and underseal.
The newspaper wants to publish the video to its readers

(01:16:54):
and customers, and the government and the court system thus
far have said no. So they hired me to essentially
bring emotion in court, forcing the court to release the video.

Speaker 6 (01:17:08):
Now, you are doing this alongside the Connecticut acl You
are you guys working separately together? What's exactly the relationship there?
Are you just two separate entities searching for the same thing.

Speaker 19 (01:17:22):
Well, I've worked with the ACLU many times in the past.
I wouldn't call myself a card carrying member, but we
are colleagues. And also, Dan Barrett is a civil rights
attorney for the ACLU who gets involved in a lot
of the similar types of matters I get involved in.
In this case, we represent distinct entities with distinct goals
and views. ACLU obviously cares about freedom of speech and

(01:17:47):
civil liberties, as a newspaper CT Examiner cares about freedom
of the press.

Speaker 6 (01:17:53):
Now, Alex, there's something that I heard through the greape
vine when you and I were introduced. I was told
that there are people who have seen this video of
Jay Allen's death.

Speaker 4 (01:18:07):
And they want it released to the public.

Speaker 6 (01:18:08):
Is there any truth to that as some of some
people seen it, because I heard maybe his mother Jessica
Jones has viewed the videotape.

Speaker 4 (01:18:16):
Others may have viewed the videotape. Is there any truth
to that?

Speaker 19 (01:18:20):
Well, I don't know who's seen it and who's not,
But Okay, it's obvious that some people have viewed it.
The lawyers for the government have viewed it. The doc
Security Division has viewed it. The judge is going to
view it pretty soon. And then there is a protective
order in the case, which is basically a court ordered

(01:18:42):
guideline over materials that have been exchanged with the lawyers
for Jay Allen Jones's family. That lawyer or the lawyers
representing the estate, they have seen the video. They have
hired expert witnesses, private contractors who have viewed the video.
But I believe that anyone other than state employees who

(01:19:03):
have viewed it are required to sign this protective order
saying that they will not release it to anyone else.

Speaker 4 (01:19:10):
They also are not allowed to disclose what they see
on this tape. Is that true.

Speaker 19 (01:19:16):
That's a little more murky to me in my opinion,
because how do you stop someone from describing something that
they've seen, right. There's also a written report on the
video that has screenshots from the video and description of
what is seen on the video. But in theory, you know,
they can't be going around saying that this is exactly

(01:19:36):
what I saw because they have to sign something before
they can watch it.

Speaker 4 (01:19:40):
Gotcha.

Speaker 6 (01:19:41):
And in essence, that's sort of like using a very
loose terms, it can only be described something to the
effect of like an NDA, right, like a non disclosure
soort of deal.

Speaker 19 (01:19:54):
Exactly, they have to sign an NDA to watch the video.
It's basically like the kind of process you have to
go through if you want to be in a in
a diddy freak.

Speaker 4 (01:20:01):
Off, nice one, Nice one. Wait to tie that in.

Speaker 6 (01:20:07):
We're on the phone with attorney Alex Talbas, who is
representing the Connecticut Examiner in the j Allen Jones case.
Talk to me a little bit about what you think
as far as the hearing we went to where I
met you and the public's response to this.

Speaker 4 (01:20:23):
I mean, we heard from her from his mother, Jessica Jones.

Speaker 6 (01:20:25):
We also heard from the mother of his son, and
I think keep forgetting her name.

Speaker 4 (01:20:31):
Richardson, is her last name, am I right there?

Speaker 19 (01:20:34):
Yeah, yes, Richardson family.

Speaker 4 (01:20:36):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (01:20:37):
She says that her son also suffers from schizophrenia that
he got genetically from his father.

Speaker 19 (01:20:43):
That there's true to that, right, Well, I don't know
anything about it.

Speaker 4 (01:20:48):
Oh you don't know about Okay, you don't have to
answer that.

Speaker 19 (01:20:49):
Don't know about their family. I don't represent that, Okay,
I do know. There's a lot of people who came
out to that hearing. You would have thought that Kim
Kardashian is in that video based on how many people
came to that hearing. Indeed, indeed, it was very high
public interest.

Speaker 6 (01:21:03):
Yeah, so what do you make of the state or
the government's case because you said something, you were probably
one of the most uh, let's just say passionate speakers there.
Not that his mother wasn't she's saddened and she's sub dude,
But you had such a passionate argument in the beginning.

Speaker 4 (01:21:24):
I was like, Okay, let me find out what this
guy's like. But you got up there, you were you
were so good.

Speaker 6 (01:21:30):
People were resisting applauding in the room because the judge
told him not to have any outbursts. But talk to
me about why you're so passioned because you do stand
up for these people who are wronged inside the criminal
justice system. But you, like I did when I heard
about this, know that there was something rotten in Denmark.
Talk to me about William Tong's fighting, this video coming

(01:21:54):
out and what you think that's about.

Speaker 19 (01:21:57):
Well, I was pretty frank with the judge when I
told her was that I don't really think that this
is a close call. I don't really think it's close
at all. That if you're going by what the law
says and the constitution and what our precedents say and
what our country is about, then we shouldn't be up

(01:22:18):
here begging that the government and the court show us
the evidence they're using to say they did nothing wrong.
When someone died who and he was completely under the
control of the government. So this is not private property
we're talking about here, And the only person who's privacy

(01:22:42):
is at stake is the family of the man who died,
and they're demanding publicity, not privacy. So if it's a
question of law, it's not even close. But what we
have here is a very powerful politician in the Attorney

(01:23:02):
General William Tong, who has put his professional reputation and
career on the line in favor of secrecy. And when
an attorney general says something needs to be secret, you think, well,
I mean, there must be something on this video there
is a national security and the judge hasn't even seen
it yet, so she doesn't know how sincere they are.

(01:23:25):
But unless you know they've taken out bin Laden on
this video in the background, there's nothing secret here. This
happened on our watch, on our prison property, where anybody
can go. Even Governor Molloy, Governor LaMotte like to go
and throw a press conference. Cameras are allowed in then.

(01:23:48):
But when something happens that might be a little bit
off script, then they think it's a threat to national security.
I think it's laughable. I tried to contain my laughter
and just tell the court that I didn't think it
was closed.

Speaker 6 (01:24:01):
Yeah, now you made for me, You made a compelling case.
We're on the phone with Attorney Alex Tawbas. He is
representing the Connecticut Examiner in the case of the release
of the j Allen Jones assault if not murder.

Speaker 11 (01:24:16):
Uh.

Speaker 4 (01:24:16):
The coroner has called it a homicide.

Speaker 6 (01:24:20):
He didn't refer to it as a negligent homicide, but
he referred to it as a homicide. No one has
been held accountable, accountable, and his family wants the video release.

Speaker 4 (01:24:28):
Let me ask you something about this was because there.

Speaker 6 (01:24:30):
Were several things that I found out later on after
I heard about this story, be it the article that
was written by Devon Ward or the article that was
written in LA Law in law dot com. What I
found out going there was so many more details that
drew like literally blew my mind away. Was the fact
that I thought it was just four police officers that

(01:24:53):
subdued j Allen.

Speaker 4 (01:24:54):
It turns out it was as many as nine. And
another part.

Speaker 6 (01:24:58):
About this that also blew my mind is that we
are not talking about a videotape or recording that was
on stationary or cameras that are stationary inside the room.
This was filmed on a handheld camcorder. What do you
make of any of that?

Speaker 19 (01:25:17):
I think that it's just outrageous that we are even
having this discussion. And to top it all off, Reese
the videos from over seven years ago. We're talking ninety
months ago this video was created. Jay Allen. Jones's sentence
would have been over by now, would have been released

(01:25:40):
from prison by now. So what are we doing here?
Are we blocking history from being public? I mean, it's
almost history at this point seven years later. But the
government counts on things cooling off with time, and so
if they can slow things down for years, sometimes that

(01:26:01):
means people are gonna stop paying attention, people are gonna
give up, things will die down and go away. In
this situation, it seems to me that if they're still
fighting to keep it secret this many years later, they
may really have something to hide on this video. And
that's very disturbing that the reason why they would try
to keep it secret is because they have something to hide.

Speaker 6 (01:26:24):
Let me ask you this, because I talked to a
lot of people and I saved this for you till
you got on air. You had said some things that
we talked about in the hallway. I don't want to
get into that. You said something interesting in relation to
William Tongue versus Donald Trump, that I'll keep tars to
just us because I thought it was great that just
said it. But and you may not even be a

(01:26:44):
Trump fan, but I still love that you said it
because it was pretty.

Speaker 4 (01:26:46):
Funny and true.

Speaker 6 (01:26:48):
But the thing that I'm find myself compelled by in
all of this is. There are some people who believe
that William Tong is protecting the legacy of Governor Malloy
because it happened on his watch, and also protecting the
legacy of the Democrat Party as it relates to their

(01:27:10):
relationship with the African American and minority communities in Connecticut.

Speaker 4 (01:27:14):
Why do I say that?

Speaker 6 (01:27:16):
According to them, if this video comes out, Lamont and
William Tong much less Democrats in Connecticut would lose the
support of the African American community. It's not about because again,
it doesn't make sense because it didn't happen on William
Tong's watch. It didn't happen on Governor Lamont's watch. It
happened before they even were you know, the governor or

(01:27:37):
the Attorney general. Why would they be protecting us to
so many levels? And some people say it's because of
the legacy of Democrats in a relationship with the black
community and this would alter it for the rest of time.

Speaker 4 (01:27:50):
What do you say?

Speaker 19 (01:27:52):
I think that the governor and the Attorney General have
been very unwilling to this. Current governor and Attorney General
have kind of pumped the brakes on policies that the
prior governor put in to help people who are in
jail and imprisons, and so this is the result of

(01:28:22):
policies not being put in place and people not caring
about what goes on in the prison. And as a
result of that, now, if they released this video, it's
going to be embarrassing. Why were you keeping its secret
for so long? Why were you fighting this case for

(01:28:43):
so long? Why were you trying to get it dismissed,
Why were you trying not to pay the family anything.
All of those things did happen under Lama and Tong's watch,
and that's actually been there. They're mo They make very
good words to the black community, very good words, some

(01:29:03):
of the best words you can come up with to say.
But when it comes to actually putting money where your
mouth is and devoting the resources or correcting the historical
injustices that have been visited upon black people, they're not there.
Because if there's one thing we know about the government

(01:29:24):
in Connecticut is that it wants your money. It wants
your tax money. It wants to eat it up, suck
it up, and I don't know what they do with it,
but they want your money, right yeah, and better believe
they don't want to take any of that and give
it back to people they've wronged.

Speaker 4 (01:29:42):
Interesting, you know what?

Speaker 6 (01:29:43):
And the funny that because even devon Ward said that
William Tong's response to him in other cases when they
were seen in private, like at the gas station or anything,
is that.

Speaker 4 (01:29:55):
You know.

Speaker 6 (01:29:56):
Tong says he has a fiduciary duty to protect the
taxpayer's money, but even DeVaughn says that that's inconsistent because.

Speaker 4 (01:30:03):
When he wants to, he'll be able to give.

Speaker 6 (01:30:04):
He'll be happy to give tax payer dollars to a
whole bunch of other boondoggles, but just here, he just
won't do it.

Speaker 4 (01:30:12):
And I think you're you're right on point.

Speaker 6 (01:30:14):
Uh with his uh resistance within those communities that they
know that they're wrong, it.

Speaker 4 (01:30:18):
Might be just lip service. So Alex, I thank you
for your time, Thank you for being here.

Speaker 6 (01:30:24):
As the developments come up, we're still waiting for the
for the judge to give a written decision.

Speaker 4 (01:30:29):
Is that what we're waiting on now?

Speaker 19 (01:30:32):
It could only be another at most another seven years.
I'm sure we'll get it in.

Speaker 4 (01:30:36):
Let's hope it's not that long. Okay, I gotta be here.

Speaker 6 (01:30:39):
Attorney Alex Thomas represented the Connecticut examiner a Jay Allen
Jones case.

Speaker 4 (01:30:44):
Thank you, Alex. I appreciate you, sir.

Speaker 19 (01:30:47):
Thank you God.

Speaker 1 (01:30:48):
Stay locked in. Race on the radio is on w
T I see news.

Speaker 6 (01:30:56):
All right, we're back, and I like to think Alex
for being a part of the program setting us off.

Speaker 4 (01:31:05):
I gotta stick with the protocol.

Speaker 6 (01:31:08):
Will get to your phone calls in a second. Let's
get to some news. WWE co founder Vince McMahon applied
for a pre trial probationary program at his arraignment for
his reckless driving case. Yesterday, he appeared at the State

(01:31:29):
Superior Court in Stanford, where he applied for accelerated rehabilitation program.
If granted, McMahon could see the charges against him dismissed.
McMahon's court appearance comes after it's July arrest in connection
with a Merit parkway crash. I'm not gonna lie. I'm
not giving him a pass or anything. But is it

(01:31:49):
me or is that like the least like highway. I've
never liked the Merit. I don't and I don't even
know what it is. Any time I've had to go
on it's it like I don't like driving it on it,
on it at night. Maybe somebody could explain to me.

Speaker 4 (01:32:05):
I think it's me. I think it's me. No, is
it me? Or is it not me?

Speaker 14 (01:32:12):
It is not you?

Speaker 4 (01:32:13):
It's oh so okay. So you you feel the same
way about the Marrit Parkway.

Speaker 14 (01:32:16):
I hate I hate the mirror port you.

Speaker 4 (01:32:18):
What is it? What? What's the part that bothers you
about the Maryor Parkway?

Speaker 14 (01:32:22):
First of all, I don't think it's many breakdown lanes.

Speaker 4 (01:32:25):
Yes, that's a big problem.

Speaker 14 (01:32:27):
Just be limited such and such.

Speaker 2 (01:32:29):
But people drive ninety, yes, and they're whipping out through traffic,
and it's.

Speaker 4 (01:32:35):
So thin it is it doesn't feel like you have
any room.

Speaker 14 (01:32:38):
Yeah, you don't have any room.

Speaker 2 (01:32:39):
And if God forbid, the weather as bad as that's
ten times worse. And at nighttime it's crazy deers everywhere.
Everybody's hidden.

Speaker 4 (01:32:47):
Okay, So I'm not off the beating path on this one.
It's everything you just described as my problem with the
Merrick Parkway, every one of those reasons.

Speaker 14 (01:32:55):
I literally drive an extra like thirty.

Speaker 2 (01:32:58):
Five minutes when I'm coming back from New York, just
so I don't have to get to avoid it. To
avoid it, yeah, I go six eighty four through Brewster
and white planes and to eighty four.

Speaker 14 (01:33:09):
I'd rather just go that way.

Speaker 6 (01:33:11):
And it's you know, it's so funny because so many
people's like, yeah, just take the Merit. I'm like, no, thanks,
Like I hate when people suggest it. Oh, the Americus
there faster, I'm like, I hate that. It doesn't matter
about whether you're.

Speaker 4 (01:33:24):
Not getting there faster. I don't feel comfortable.

Speaker 6 (01:33:26):
I always feel uncomfortable on it, and everybody else drives
on it like a lunatic. Lunatic. Yeah, thank you for that.
I'm glad. I feel better now. I feel better now.
I got more headlines when we return.

Speaker 4 (01:33:42):
Speaking of the Merit Parkway, Mark Christopher is in the
VPS Traffic CEA Mark Merrick Parkway. What is this visit
me that most people don't like the Merit Parkway because
of the recent Roland just said, because it's one it's
there's no there's no what do you call it? Emergency lane?
It's very right.

Speaker 6 (01:34:01):
Of course at night you have to worry about deer crossing,
and everybody drives.

Speaker 4 (01:34:05):
Like it's the autobot.

Speaker 23 (01:34:07):
Well that was that road was designed and built in
the nineteen thirties and that, you know, really not a
whole lot has changed since then. Obviously there's a lot
more traffic. Cars go a lot quicker now, yes, and
that it.

Speaker 4 (01:34:19):
Was not designed for today's try.

Speaker 23 (01:34:21):
No, no, no no, I don't see that changing anytime soon.

Speaker 4 (01:34:26):
So uh yeah, you know the thing is around here.

Speaker 23 (01:34:30):
When you're going down there, you can either go ninety
one and ninety five or you can take the wilbur
If you don't like truck traffic, that's the road you're
probably gonna pick, right. If you don't like deers in
dark road, you're probably gonna pick ninety five. So so
pick your poison there, because that ain't gonna change anything, right.

Speaker 3 (01:34:48):
The NAACP calls him, WHOA, I don't think I'm all
read this.

Speaker 1 (01:34:54):
It's race on the radio.

Speaker 3 (01:34:56):
Let's just say some people are not fans news Talk
WT I soon.

Speaker 4 (01:35:05):
My fault, my my stupid microphone.

Speaker 6 (01:35:08):
We'll get back to the headlines in the second. But
I want to go to the phones because people have
been on hold for a bit. Let's go to Karen
in Southington.

Speaker 4 (01:35:14):
Hello, Karen, Hey, therey.

Speaker 17 (01:35:17):
So the big thing about the marriage. Why is called
a parkway versus a highway? When it was built, it
was supposed to be a recreational route like you go
on your Sunday morning, your Sunday afternoon drive. That's what
it was intended to be, with specific art deco bridges,

(01:35:39):
and it's supposed to be the beautiful little country's highway.
And obviously it turned into a path for New Yorkers
to come into Connecticut. And the big thing about the
marriage is you can't have any kind of commercial vehicles, right, no, uh,

(01:35:59):
you know, buckets, rock, nothing on there. It's great when
you see a police officer who is stopping right vehicles
that aren't you.

Speaker 6 (01:36:12):
Brought up something that you know what as you were
saying it. That is one of the things that I've
always recognized about the merit. It looks like it's meant
for like recreational travel, like travel. It's it almost seems
like the road was developed as a tourist attraction.

Speaker 17 (01:36:33):
It was because there was no traffic back then and
it was not a direct route between New York and
Connecticut to avoids told back then, which which it is now.
But the biggest thing that I dislike about the merrit,
I would say about driving on there is the areas
that you could go off the highway go to the

(01:36:55):
gas station, go to the dunkin Donuts, and those people
trying to get back on that highway is like suicide.
We're both the people, the commuter. It is like suicide.

Speaker 14 (01:37:08):
Yes, double dutch, Joe.

Speaker 4 (01:37:10):
It's so crazy that you say that, because that was
I've done that, like by accident, end up on the
Merit Parkway and you know, you have the on ramp.
And I did it in two different cars.

Speaker 6 (01:37:22):
I did it in a Mustang and then I did
it in like a four cylinder car, which is the
worst vehicle that you could get on the Merit with
because the trial to hear people honking at you while
you are impeding their motion on the Merit because you
are trying to rev up to sixty miles an hour
is the worst feeling in the world.

Speaker 17 (01:37:43):
I think my biggest fear of driving the Merit is
someday getting stuck in that tunnel near Woodbridge, getting off
and thinking to myself, you're you're you're a dead man,
because the way that people feed through without any other

(01:38:04):
lane to move to, you might you may as well
just be dead at that point.

Speaker 4 (01:38:08):
Yeah, somebody's gonna rear end you without a doubt. Absolutely,
Thank you.

Speaker 6 (01:38:14):
I appreciated. All you have to do is mention traffic
around here. You guys will definitely show up. I love
you for that. Thanks Karen. Let's go to Fulton. How
are you, sir?

Speaker 20 (01:38:24):
What's up, buddy? I heard tell me about the Merriage.
So in the thirties when they built it, right, they
built a bridge blowing up so boxes out of New
York City couldn't come out to the beaches like no
for a great I swear, because you can't, right, So
who will people are card, That's who could come out
to the beaches in Connecticut from New York. So whoever
they're excluding in the thirties, you can imagine.

Speaker 4 (01:38:44):
And I'm not going to say somebody would.

Speaker 6 (01:38:46):
And only reason why I know this Fulton is because
when we first got to Connecticut back in two thousand
and four, someone had suggested to us, and it may
have been a cruel joke. Well, somebody said, hey, you
want to take a great trip up to Connecticut to Hartford,
take the Merit And sure enough, the guy I was
going up there with said, hey man, they say take

(01:39:07):
the Merit Parkway, We're gonna love it.

Speaker 4 (01:39:09):
Well, I'm the one.

Speaker 6 (01:39:10):
Driving and I'm kind of kind of new to driving
at the time.

Speaker 4 (01:39:14):
I didn't get my driver's license.

Speaker 6 (01:39:15):
I was in my forties, but I was driving on
that thing, and I was I don't remember a life
ever where I didn't have my hands on ten and two.

Speaker 4 (01:39:26):
The entire drive with dunnel visions by the.

Speaker 20 (01:39:30):
Reader's diagest coming up to west Chester there when you
go over by the habit by Matt and Nyak and
all that.

Speaker 4 (01:39:35):
Oh, I don't I know what you're talking about.

Speaker 18 (01:39:37):
That.

Speaker 20 (01:39:38):
Yes, I mean those are horror pull but I really
called to say, the only thing that really stops the
bad guy would have gone is a good guy would
have gone.

Speaker 4 (01:39:44):
That's right, no more laws.

Speaker 20 (01:39:46):
So and I say, like, not for nothing. Ten months
after Sandy Hark, I was a cop, right, So they
vote Newtown votes to have cops in the school and
they vote no. Ten months after Sandy Hark. Those are
the so not for nothing. So people want guns in
the school because Daniel Hooks said no ten months later.

Speaker 24 (01:40:03):
So, I don't know, do you think it was because
of their money?

Speaker 6 (01:40:09):
Well, okay, you don't think that anything to do with
their visceral reaction to guns. And it's you know, its
use in the taking of lives that people are like
the immediate rejection is almost shelf shocking, and just go, look,
I don't want any more guns, just no more guns.

Speaker 20 (01:40:26):
Something people, So I have to do something. I want
to do something about it. I have to make a change.
And people don't realize that. It's like a virtue sing
let's make more rule, let's make more Look, so it's
harder for a regular guy with a gun to get
a gun that could actually stop something.

Speaker 8 (01:40:39):
At the mall.

Speaker 4 (01:40:40):
Yeah, it's got to be done.

Speaker 6 (01:40:42):
And I think, look, when you have so many people
who say that we don't want average citizens with a
gun and we want authority with a gun, this is
the only saying.

Speaker 20 (01:40:51):
A teacher would have gone my way to the teacher,
and my daughter was going to be teachers.

Speaker 11 (01:40:55):
People.

Speaker 6 (01:40:55):
I want to go, yeah, but but I'm saying that
if you really think about it. Righteople on the left
who are anti I don't want to call them all
anti you know, Second Amendment, but they are anti gun.

Speaker 4 (01:41:05):
They don't want the guns in the hands of civilians.

Speaker 6 (01:41:08):
Right if you would have asked them and they had
their way, nobody would have a gun except for the
military and police. But we are saying, as conservatives who
believe in the Second Amendment and that people should be
able to have the right to bear arms, we at
least want police officers to have the guns, but we
just want them stationed in places where they will be needed.
Because in one breath, you can't say, as the first caller,

(01:41:30):
you know, said that we have a growing number of
people who are targeting schools, especially in the suburbs, you know,
a Las Sandy Hook, that we cannot meet that threat
with officers.

Speaker 20 (01:41:43):
Why has there been no murders inc in the last
fifteen days? There you go, so there is just a
presidence that they're there with people with guns that I
don't know. You want to be in a gunfight with
a couple of caps in the army.

Speaker 8 (01:41:56):
I don't know.

Speaker 4 (01:41:57):
You're so right, the evidence go to Chicago.

Speaker 20 (01:42:02):
Let's see what what's happening there, And all of a sudden,
what are you gonna say now, when they're not stopping
people not taking their Fourth Amendment, which thed OT does
all the time, to talk, they can just stop you
for no reason, which is insane. But you know, people
don't want to talk about you got to take the
shoes off to get on airplane.

Speaker 24 (01:42:18):
Notmore though, if we're done with that, off the threat,
I hear you, thanks, Fulton, let me take one more.

Speaker 4 (01:42:30):
I'll take Mark and winsor how are we doing?

Speaker 8 (01:42:31):
Mark?

Speaker 19 (01:42:33):
Hello?

Speaker 25 (01:42:34):
Greetings to all the men and women listeners out there.

Speaker 4 (01:42:37):
What's up buddy?

Speaker 10 (01:42:39):
Hey?

Speaker 25 (01:42:40):
These transsexuals are they are mental health cases. That is
a mental health disorder. Obviously, to just go and murder
and innocent individual is a pure example of a person's
mental disorder. But these people that are trying to live

(01:43:02):
as something they never will be. No matter how much
plastic surgery, cosmetic surgery they have, there will never be
the alternate.

Speaker 6 (01:43:13):
The ultimate goal, which again will drive them even to
more dysphoria, because no matter what changes they do, there's
still that sense of not belonging to said gender. Right,
And that's a mental thing because inside the brain is
where all of this is functioning.

Speaker 12 (01:43:32):
Right.

Speaker 6 (01:43:32):
You can change all the body parts that you that
that you want, but there's still that constant theme going
on in the brain that says.

Speaker 4 (01:43:39):
Well, you're not really a woman yet.

Speaker 6 (01:43:41):
You're not real And if that keeps permeating inside your head,
the mental disorder only grows no matter what you do physically.

Speaker 25 (01:43:49):
And and it's in uh in these in these these
governments and these politicians, we should not have laws that
it's not as I don't see that as a civil
rights law for regarding uh, transsexuals. It's not a civil
rights law. But unfortunately many people don't realize that. I

(01:44:10):
believe it was during the COVID hysteria, UH, the Biden
Harris administration pushed to move them under the civil rights
laws protections for transsexuals and UH, and and that changes
that that that perverts people's perception of and makes it think,

(01:44:33):
makes individuals some individuals think that, oh, it's a civil
rights matter.

Speaker 6 (01:44:37):
Did you say, do you think they did that because
they were running out of things to call civil rights.

Speaker 25 (01:44:44):
Partly, but also I think that the Democrats and other
and many of their Democrat politic political party sponsors. You
just they're just pimping that segment of the populationation to
so discourse in our society.

Speaker 19 (01:45:03):
Sure, to help these stabilize.

Speaker 4 (01:45:05):
Create bad guys, create straw.

Speaker 25 (01:45:07):
Men, well, yes, and and create conflicts between them and
us and then yeah, and then and also use it
to kind of merge those a lot of that demographic
merge the transsexuals with the homosexuals, with the lesbians, and

(01:45:30):
they made it one larger political group when I know
a lot of homosexuals don't like to associate with transactions
and they see that as a mental health disorder and
not you know, like now. But politicians just.

Speaker 6 (01:45:50):
As they always do, lumping everybody up into categories instead
of individualism.

Speaker 4 (01:45:55):
It's it's it's rampant.

Speaker 25 (01:45:57):
This thing with the with the Connecticut UH prisons and
the videotape. I would have liked for that attorney to share,
or maybe he did and I missed it. Are there
other examples in Connecticut of where the tapes have been
made public and with police or corrections.

Speaker 6 (01:46:19):
Officers, Yes, there has been, and you know, I didn't
ask him about it, but there was a case in
fact that Alex Talbus mentions in his dissertation to the
court last week where he actually does point that out
that there was a case with another mental health patient
UH and Incarceert who they settled with after he had

(01:46:44):
died at they at the.

Speaker 4 (01:46:45):
Hands of corrections officers.

Speaker 6 (01:46:48):
But you want to know what the difference was, Mark,
What do you think the difference was?

Speaker 4 (01:46:52):
The most bait blatant difference.

Speaker 25 (01:46:54):
Between the William Tong wasn't there.

Speaker 4 (01:46:58):
The incarcerator person was white and they settled.

Speaker 25 (01:47:06):
It doesn't surprise me.

Speaker 4 (01:47:07):
Nope, it does not be either. Off, thank you, boss man.
I appreciate you. I have a great one you too.
Let's go to David and Vernon. How are you? David?

Speaker 26 (01:47:17):
Hey, I'm doing now?

Speaker 10 (01:47:18):
How are you?

Speaker 4 (01:47:19):
I'm all right? What do you got for me?

Speaker 8 (01:47:21):
So real quickly?

Speaker 26 (01:47:23):
The Merrick Parkway, Yeah, was part of a spiderwrab that
gave the people in New York City the opportunity to
get out of the city.

Speaker 11 (01:47:35):
Ah.

Speaker 20 (01:47:35):
You had the Merrit which is the fifteen, You had
the twenty.

Speaker 26 (01:47:38):
Five which went to Long Island, twenty five north and South,
you had Route nine that went up to upstate New York,
and there's probably something that went to New Jersey. Is
that any of that reminisced with you?

Speaker 4 (01:47:53):
Yes, in fact, I know all of those.

Speaker 6 (01:47:56):
And again the fact that you said that the Merrick
Parkway was built for New Yorkers so they can come
into Connecticut.

Speaker 4 (01:48:04):
That I'm going to call that the cruelest joke Connecticut ever.

Speaker 6 (01:48:07):
Played on New York the Merit Parkway, Because I'm sorry,
I drive.

Speaker 4 (01:48:12):
Every time I end up on it.

Speaker 6 (01:48:14):
It's only one time in my life I ever went
on the Merit Parkway on purpose. Every time I've ever
been on it, and I can honestly say it's about
twenty It was by accident, and.

Speaker 26 (01:48:25):
It's But the point why, is the fact that all
of those highways were a spiderweb for people to get
out of New York City right when at first became
an entity.

Speaker 4 (01:48:35):
Oh no, I get it.

Speaker 6 (01:48:36):
I'm just saying that, you know, as Mark you know, suggested,
it was not built for the traffic today. It's never
been expanded on. And again, if they were, what a
project it would be? Would it would cost billions of
dollars to renovate or to change or to make to
apply it to today's needs as as a spur.

Speaker 4 (01:48:56):
And every time I think.

Speaker 19 (01:48:58):
About it, style, Yes.

Speaker 6 (01:49:01):
You're right, what's the other one in New York on
the West Side Highway? I always think of the Uh?
Oh is it the is it the river?

Speaker 10 (01:49:11):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (01:49:12):
Goodness, gracious, there's a scene.

Speaker 26 (01:49:14):
I don't know, you got nine.

Speaker 8 (01:49:16):
Or something.

Speaker 6 (01:49:17):
Yeah, it'll come to me in a second. I can't,
I can't think about it. I gotta go to a
break though, David, thank you. Sorry, I appreciate you.

Speaker 4 (01:49:23):
There's a.

Speaker 6 (01:49:25):
There's a road that's in the Bronx that goes up
that looks just like the Merit Parkway, and for some
reason it's escaping me. It's the something Mill Highway. Let's
go to Mark Christopher Sawmill River Parkway. That's it, the
Sawmill River Parkway. I knew I would come up with it.
Mark Christler, he's in the BPS Traffic Center. Is it

(01:49:46):
a saw Mill River Parkway just like the Merit. The
designers just the yeah, they connect. Yeah, yeah, the road,
I mean the road. This road was built in the thirties.
I mean it was part of the and you know,
put people back to work. I forgot what they called
that program back in the thirties, but you know that,
you know, it's whenever I'm on the west side of Manhattan,

(01:50:09):
and if I got to go to Connecticut, if you
if I was on the Sawmill River parkwayh of course
you have to go into the Marrio, have to.

Speaker 4 (01:50:15):
But I did, and that would be as soon as
I saw I was on the marriag, I'd go, oh no, I.

Speaker 1 (01:50:23):
Yeah.

Speaker 23 (01:50:23):
Now, the original Merit between Greenwich and Norwalk was open
in nineteen thirty eight. Wow, so yeah, that's you can
see how that road is what eighty five, eighty six,
eighty seven years old? Now, so yeah, there you go.
I mean that's the reason. And like I said, you know,

(01:50:43):
people want to keep it scenic and that way. They
can only do so much with There's not a lot
of land to work with this that's a problem.

Speaker 1 (01:50:50):
Oh it's race on the radio.

Speaker 4 (01:50:54):
WT I S all right, we're back.

Speaker 6 (01:50:56):
I got to read some comments that are in the
chet rooms. We'll read that in a minute, and then
of course we'll get to your phone calls and wrap
this day up. I also want to mention tomorrow the
opening monologue is about a story that many people have
forgotten about. It is the curious case of Kevin Rossaro Moreno.

Speaker 4 (01:51:16):
Anybody remember him?

Speaker 6 (01:51:18):
Think Meridin again, the Curious Case of Kevin Rossero Moreno.
I went and did some digging on that young man,
and what I found was pretty interesting.

Speaker 4 (01:51:30):
So we'll do that tomorrow during the show.

Speaker 6 (01:51:34):
Also, I want to thank Alex Tobas at the attorney
representing a Connecticut examiner with the sorry trying to find
get the videotape released of Jay Allen Jones's death inside
the correction Facinity Gardner, I.

Speaker 4 (01:51:51):
Believe is the correctional facility. Now, let's get to some
Hollywood knows. Where the heck is my thing? There? I
can't find it. There is Hollywood.

Speaker 27 (01:52:01):
News, it's news, but y'all Corlsons on the radio.

Speaker 6 (01:52:15):
Now, this one is interesting only because it shows how
sad Hollywood has gotten. And the reason why I talk
about Hollywood in the way and it I do, is
because it is a medium in our lives. That is,
it's gone through some ebbs and flows. Sometimes it's up,
sometimes it's down, and right now it's down.

Speaker 4 (01:52:34):
And as I was looking up Hollywood News.

Speaker 6 (01:52:36):
Trying to find out new films that are coming out,
I thought I'd find something interesting, but I didn't.

Speaker 4 (01:52:41):
What I found was dismay, sad, sad dismay.

Speaker 6 (01:52:46):
Hollywood is rapidly running out of ideas, and that means
they're always going to go into the well of sequels.

Speaker 4 (01:52:54):
And here is a list of films.

Speaker 6 (01:52:57):
That they are going to do sequel two and have
to bring in my trust thee Emmy Award winning co
host and producer roland In for this, I'm gonna mention the.

Speaker 4 (01:53:08):
Movies Roland, and you're gonna tell.

Speaker 6 (01:53:10):
Me if you are interested in seeing any of them,
because you know.

Speaker 4 (01:53:15):
Your movie patterns are a little weird. They're all over
the place.

Speaker 6 (01:53:18):
You You will go to a movie I would think
you wouldn't go to, and then not go to the
one I expect you to. So I'm gonna name a
couple of these films and see whether or not you
would actually see them.

Speaker 4 (01:53:27):
How about this one.

Speaker 28 (01:53:28):
Y Sonic the Hedgehog four? Yeah, you see that? That's
all three of them, all three. Gotta you know.

Speaker 4 (01:53:39):
I hear Jim Carrey is making bank on these.

Speaker 14 (01:53:42):
Movies, absolutely making ten millionaire movies something like that.

Speaker 6 (01:53:45):
Goodness gracious, I mean, Jim Carrey doesn't have to work again.

Speaker 4 (01:53:48):
How about this one? Are you familiar with the super
Troopers franch?

Speaker 1 (01:53:53):
Yeah?

Speaker 14 (01:53:53):
I remember the super Troopers?

Speaker 6 (01:53:54):
Okay, well, you know they've had some films out.

Speaker 14 (01:53:57):
I'm not interested, though.

Speaker 4 (01:53:58):
Okay, this would be super true. Verse three? What's your
what's your interest in this one? This one?

Speaker 6 (01:54:04):
I only remember it back in the day because it
was so panned because they actually had Vanilla Ice in
one of its films.

Speaker 4 (01:54:11):
But the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, you would say that.
Are you a teenage mutant ninja turtle fan?

Speaker 14 (01:54:21):
I am my whole life.

Speaker 4 (01:54:22):
Okay, so you grew up with them. I'm assuming that
is my favorite. Okay, fine.

Speaker 12 (01:54:28):
Uh.

Speaker 6 (01:54:29):
A horror genre that's doing really, really well is the
production team of John Krasinski and his wife Elleny Emily
Blunt have started this franchise called The Quiet Place.

Speaker 4 (01:54:43):
He's gonna be coming out. Have you have you watched
any of those?

Speaker 2 (01:54:45):
I saw the first one. My brother in law. He
loves all anything horror. He okay, he's always random raven about.

Speaker 6 (01:54:52):
So well, this particular this genre or this franchise has
been really successful.

Speaker 17 (01:54:58):
Uh.

Speaker 6 (01:54:58):
And so the third one is coming because I know
the first one was a Quiet Place. Quiet Place two
I think was sort of like a prequel in a
weird way, like talks about when the aliens first come.
And then now this one is the three. So you know,
when you're making that much money, you might as well.
For the marijuana enthusiasts with munchies, they were like this,
how about Harold and Kumar four. I didn't even know

(01:55:20):
there was a three.

Speaker 14 (01:55:21):
I thought it was only to.

Speaker 6 (01:55:24):
So apparently yeah, horoldly Okay, I did see the first one.
This one, I don't know why they keep making it.
But then again, as chub Rock One said, RoboCop last
year was a shock. Apparently RoboCop returns another one. They're
gonna do another sequel to the remake.

Speaker 14 (01:55:46):
H yeah, I enjoyed it. I'll go see it.

Speaker 4 (01:55:49):
Okay, you would see that RoboCop.

Speaker 6 (01:55:51):
This one is an interesting one because I hear according
to the call sheet, Will Smith is coming back for
this movie.

Speaker 4 (01:55:58):
Yes, even though he died. Uh it is. I am
Legend two.

Speaker 14 (01:56:03):
I am Legend two.

Speaker 4 (01:56:04):
Yeah, I know you're gonna go see that.

Speaker 14 (01:56:06):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:56:07):
Are you a Michael B. Jordan fan? Because I understand
he's coming. He's gonna be in this film.

Speaker 14 (01:56:11):
Oh is he the son grown up?

Speaker 12 (01:56:13):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (01:56:14):
I think yeah, I believe that he is going to be.
Michael B.

Speaker 6 (01:56:17):
Jordan is in this film. So at least he's on
the call sheet. Uh for this one. Uh last, but
not least for those of you eighties folks. I had
to leave this one last because I'm not gonna lie.
I'm going to the movies to see this and I
don't care how bad the critics.

Speaker 4 (01:56:31):
Say it is. I've got on to no.

Speaker 6 (01:56:33):
Oh dang, Okay, So this was a crossover in the
cartoon world that every kid loved even though it sucked,
and they even made a comic book about it. It
is none other than Transformers and G I Joe.

Speaker 4 (01:56:50):
Oh, you know, I don't know about you, but I'm
going to see that.

Speaker 14 (01:56:56):
Yeah, that's gonna be super action pat.

Speaker 6 (01:57:00):
I mean, how do you not see that if you
were grew if you were a kid who grew up
in the eighties, to see that in live action, that's
see again. This is what I mean when I call
a film a spectacle film.

Speaker 4 (01:57:13):
This is a spectacle film.

Speaker 14 (01:57:14):
Did you see the G I Joe movies?

Speaker 4 (01:57:17):
I did.

Speaker 6 (01:57:17):
I saw it with Channing Tatum and Dennis Quaid and
all of them, even one with Marlon Wayans, which I've
always actually pretty good.

Speaker 14 (01:57:24):
Yeah, I thought that was a spin off the with
My Guy.

Speaker 4 (01:57:29):
Yes, the Snake Eyes film Snake Eyes.

Speaker 6 (01:57:31):
Yeah, so I've always again this that particular era U
for cartoons and comic books was.

Speaker 4 (01:57:38):
A great era.

Speaker 6 (01:57:39):
And who wouldn't want to see the Transformers and G
I Joe sort of relived that, I know.

Speaker 2 (01:57:44):
Most of the because people have gotten tired of the
Transformer movies. Yes, yeah, you kind of have to. If
you want to extend that just a little bit more,
you gotta do something different.

Speaker 6 (01:57:56):
Yeah, you gotta make it interesting and sure, and you
know what, they kind of from what I've always understood,
they both kind of lived in the same universe in
the cartoons.

Speaker 4 (01:58:05):
They just never really did the path yet they.

Speaker 6 (01:58:08):
Never crossed paths until they were forced to in the
comic books, which everybody thought was great.

Speaker 4 (01:58:13):
It was one of the best sellers back in the day.
And I think it was a marvel. I think it
was a mar.

Speaker 2 (01:58:17):
Thought that they would always work together, because it's like,
you know, the Ajoe Soldiers.

Speaker 14 (01:58:22):
Sure, sure, sure you got the Transformers.

Speaker 6 (01:58:24):
Yeah, you know, Cobra's very much like Megatron. By the way,
for those of you, for those of you who are saying,
who the hell are they talking about, go back to
your childhood. It's a very important time. It's important time
for the rest of us.

Speaker 4 (01:58:37):
That's all.

Speaker 6 (01:58:37):
Anyway, that's Hollywood news. Let's get to Frank and Woodbridge.

Speaker 4 (01:58:41):
How are you, sir?

Speaker 12 (01:58:43):
Good? I you know, I always liked the Murph Parkway
in the minority because there no trucks.

Speaker 6 (01:58:48):
Ah, but do you do you not like listen? I
don't know about you, but I kind of like room.
And the Merit Parkway has a lot of curves and
turns and and it's so tight that if you're in
a lot of traffic, you know, it could be a
little nerve wracking.

Speaker 21 (01:59:05):
No, yeah, but I'm not.

Speaker 12 (01:59:07):
I'm not in a hurry when I go anywhere, just
always in a hurry to go somewhere. Speaking of going somewhere,
I told you this recently, Tuesday night, four weeks in
Paradise will leave you for Sicily, and I can't be
back on October first. I can't wait to get there.
And I'll tell you why. The last two countries I've
been in America and Italy, I can't take it no

(01:59:29):
more with these white women. I'm gonna be. I'm gonna
be on the island with the most beautiful women in
the world when it comes to skin, that beautiful olive
Italian dark skin. The only other woman who has better
skin than them is the American black woman. That it'd
be like, it'd be like, I'm going home.

Speaker 6 (01:59:47):
Can I tell you some good news when you get
back home from Sicily?

Speaker 12 (01:59:51):
What's that?

Speaker 4 (01:59:52):
The good news is that yours truly and Roseanne will
be living in Connecticut.

Speaker 12 (01:59:58):
Where we're gonna way you're gonna.

Speaker 6 (02:00:00):
We're going We got in at Uh oh, No, I'm
not giving my address.

Speaker 4 (02:00:05):
We got an apartment in Farmington. That's all I'm saying.
We got a place in Farmington. I'm not gonna give
you a thing. I was gonna give the damn a dress.

Speaker 6 (02:00:12):
Well, I'll be living at one two three Smith Street. No,
I would never give their dress. But we did fight
a place in in in Farmington.

Speaker 11 (02:00:21):
Uh.

Speaker 6 (02:00:21):
Literally, we just I think we just got the application
to fill out. No, it's not even that we did.

Speaker 4 (02:00:26):
All application thing, but we got to fill out some
other forms.

Speaker 3 (02:00:29):
Uh.

Speaker 6 (02:00:29):
But yeah, we are out of here right now. We're
going through the motions of what we're packing. Uh, we're
gonna be living in a shoe box.

Speaker 4 (02:00:36):
But what the hell?

Speaker 12 (02:00:37):
Let me tell you before I go. The saddest thing
about this country, you know what it is?

Speaker 10 (02:00:41):
Uh?

Speaker 12 (02:00:44):
The population?

Speaker 6 (02:00:46):
Get okay? Enough with you, goodbye, love you, that's okay.
You'll be amongst your own enjoy the trip. None other
than the guy who got me in trouble last time
hasn't been here since.

Speaker 4 (02:01:01):
Why mind is on the line? What's going on? Bush?

Speaker 26 (02:01:05):
First?

Speaker 8 (02:01:05):
Of all this dude who called before me. It's like
he bragged about liking the worst possible thing in the world.

Speaker 4 (02:01:13):
Oh that's don't don't. I've got to cut you off.

Speaker 14 (02:01:16):
Stop it.

Speaker 8 (02:01:16):
If if he was picking mrs, he would say ham
and Lima beans are his favorite.

Speaker 4 (02:01:23):
Wait a minute, hold on, ham and Lima beans are
the worst in an m R.

Speaker 8 (02:01:29):
Yeah, I'll have to ask both. And it's like he's
bragging about being obsessed with the thing that nobody even
brothers don't upset like this brothers run for black women.

Speaker 6 (02:01:44):
Yeah, well, there has been a there has been an
i say, a growing number of people online who have
like there's like these argument podcasts where black women and
black men are on there and they're arguing about their relationship.

Speaker 4 (02:01:59):
Is this weird battle of the sexes.

Speaker 6 (02:02:01):
That are going on where they're talking about like wide
black men are choosing white women and these black women
are all upset and it's crazy anyway, But you called
about something else.

Speaker 4 (02:02:11):
What do you got?

Speaker 10 (02:02:13):
I don't know.

Speaker 8 (02:02:13):
That was pretty good, But that list of movies you
laid out, yes makes me think that Hollywood thinks everybody
is a retarded nine.

Speaker 19 (02:02:22):
Year old with add That was horrible.

Speaker 8 (02:02:25):
There wasn't an actual film in that.

Speaker 4 (02:02:28):
List, just not even I am legend.

Speaker 6 (02:02:30):
I thought that was like critically acclaimed horrible.

Speaker 8 (02:02:34):
That movie was terrible because it totally changed the plot
of the book.

Speaker 6 (02:02:38):
Uh well, okay, yeah, First of all, I know so
many people who are like that that you know, anytime
you deviate from the book, that's it.

Speaker 4 (02:02:46):
It's like, forget about it.

Speaker 6 (02:02:47):
The movie's over and it's trash and you know, never
to be seen again. But you, okay, how about this one?
You didn't like The Quiet Place? You didn't think that
that was.

Speaker 8 (02:02:55):
A no, I don't like. I think horror movies are
absolutely stupid because ninety percent of that to be solved
by one guy with a bistos.

Speaker 4 (02:03:04):
Okay, fair enough.

Speaker 6 (02:03:06):
Oh you know what I mentioned hold on movie? I yes,
I forgot about one. You know what one I forgot
on here? I didn't even realize we were up to
this number. The Matrix five is on the list.

Speaker 8 (02:03:18):
Oh god, there's only one good Matrix movie. Everything else
has been hot garbage. Both movies were never meant to
be a series. They are meant to be one cool movie,
and then Hollywood says, oh, let's make some more money,
crank out some crap, and now the transgender which House
doy whatever, are just turning out garbage.

Speaker 19 (02:03:37):
That's all garbage.

Speaker 8 (02:03:38):
Yeah, if marvel Craft is garbage, it's not for adults
like you, and they are adults and we tell for it,
but it's for children yesterday people are acting like children's
movies are high cinema. The only thing I'm looking forward
to in the future is when Crentin Tarantino gets off
his ass and makes his tenth movie Easy Only.

Speaker 6 (02:03:54):
But that's it for him. Right after his tenth movie,
He's done so.

Speaker 8 (02:03:58):
Al, he says, but you know, I'm sure he's gonna
get divorced and his Israeli wife for a fortune to
have to work. It is all terrible. That was the
most depressing list of crowds I know.

Speaker 4 (02:04:09):
It was listen to me when I read it.

Speaker 6 (02:04:11):
As soon as I was going through the list, apparently
I found this website that has all of the lists
with the call sheet and everybody's gonna be on it
if they have actors attached to it.

Speaker 4 (02:04:20):
As I'm going through the list.

Speaker 6 (02:04:21):
I'm just going, Wow, these are like, why are these
films being made? And they keep going through as I'm
going through more and more of them. I had to
stop at like the third page, but I had all
of these on there.

Speaker 4 (02:04:32):
So them Mike, before I let you go, if there
was a.

Speaker 6 (02:04:36):
Good, good movie that you would make a sequel of,
because you're like me, I believe you should never ever
touch a classic film.

Speaker 4 (02:04:43):
Just re release it in theaters and people will go.
But if you.

Speaker 8 (02:04:47):
Did, I don't want any sequels. There's there's no story
I've seen, right. I am kind of interested in seeing
the I think there's going to be a prequel to
Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. Yes, Amazon, that sounds solid,
but I'm just tired of the Man. Make a movie,
you know, how about a nice action movie with a
tough guy hero who's going to save save a girl

(02:05:09):
from distress. Give us the Hero's Journey movie. Give us
some more art Sourzenegger eighty style stuff or strong heroes,
a Thai heroes, not just comic book crap with bad
CGI that costs four.

Speaker 11 (02:05:22):
Hundred million dollars.

Speaker 6 (02:05:23):
So you must be outraged that they're redoing The Running
Man because I love the original.

Speaker 8 (02:05:28):
Well, I will tell you I have zero hopes for you.
Tron Glenn Powell reason in this movie, they have decided
his character has got to be more fleshed out and
has an ugly black wife.

Speaker 4 (02:05:42):
I gotta got the dying peas.

Speaker 8 (02:05:45):
He could do better than that. Yes, I don't see
his wife. It's not about his wife.

Speaker 10 (02:05:49):
That not in.

Speaker 29 (02:05:50):
Surviving the Games, I cannot tell you how annoying it
is to go through all of the stuff that I
have to go through to move.

Speaker 6 (02:06:01):
I don't at a mover a mover. I owned a
moving company, but they have to do my own move.

Speaker 4 (02:06:08):
I hate it.

Speaker 14 (02:06:10):
I're a moving company.

Speaker 4 (02:06:12):
No no, no, no, no no. I don't trust those people. Ironically, Sorry,
I gotta fix my chair again.

Speaker 6 (02:06:22):
You guys know what happened is we've been talking about
it all day during the show that the shooting that
took place at the Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis. We
do know that the shooter did identify as a transgender person.
What I found crazy about all of this was the

(02:06:43):
audio that I played earlier of the Mayor of Minneapolis,
Jacob Fray.

Speaker 7 (02:06:50):
These were Minneapolis families, these were American families, and the
amount of pain that they are suffering right now is extraordinary.
Don't just say this is about thoughts and prayers right now.
These kids were literally praying. It was the first week
of school, they were in a church. These are kids

(02:07:12):
that should be learning with their friends.

Speaker 6 (02:07:16):
Yeah, he had all of that shouting at the rest
of us who had done nothing wrong. But the moment
that Mayor Jacob Fray found out that the shooter targeted
children in that Catholic community, children to take their lives.

Speaker 4 (02:07:34):
This is what Jacob Pray had to say, all of us.

Speaker 7 (02:07:40):
And I have heard about a whole lot of hate
that's being directed at our trans community. Anybody who was
using this as using this as an opportunity to villainize
our trans community or any other community out there, has

(02:08:00):
lost their sense of common humanity.

Speaker 6 (02:08:04):
Where was all of that when you were shouting at us,
You were condemning us for thoughts and prayers. All we
gave was thoughts and prayers, and we got yelled at.
Then you find out that the shooter identifies as transgender.

Speaker 4 (02:08:20):
Now, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa whoa.

Speaker 6 (02:08:23):
Everybody calm down, don't start expressing hate.

Speaker 4 (02:08:28):
Spare me. I told you, folks, so you're gonna take
a minute.

Speaker 6 (02:08:38):
Let's get another check of whether in Traffic with Bob
Larson and Mark Christopher's in a BPS traffic center.

Speaker 4 (02:08:43):
Hey Mark, what's up?

Speaker 14 (02:08:43):
Everybody?

Speaker 1 (02:08:44):
You know who it is?

Speaker 6 (02:08:45):
You know it's on the radio, Frederick Douglas of the
twenty first century. It's w t i C News Talk
and we're back about to get up out of here.
Normally we would end on phone, but we had so
many during the show. I've got to get into the
Susan Campbell opinion piece tomorrow. Also, we got to talk

(02:09:09):
about Bethel, Connecticut and Bethel, you should be Ashamed of Yourselves.
I talked about this a little bit, but now the
news is covering it, and again, being ahead of that
of the news cycle is what I do best. And
this article is Bethel again you got should be shamed

(02:09:30):
of yourselves, And we'll talk about that as well. So
Susan Campbell is talking about Trump's revenge tour on Connecticut. Bethel,
even though they voted overwhelmingly for Kamala Harris, they clearly
don't stand by her policies that they definitely don't without
a doubt.

Speaker 4 (02:09:51):
So we'll talk about that tomorrow. And of course, the
curious case of Kevin Rosero Moreno of me Mereden. We'll
talk about that as well.

Speaker 6 (02:09:59):
Let me read this real quick, because someone posted this
in the chat room about the school, the Annunciation Catholic School,
and I wanted to read this, and I believe that
this is based upon fact. Let me read it verbatim.
Here Michael C sent it about Annunciation. He says this

(02:10:20):
was a private school and as such they are responsible
for their own security. But did you know that Minneapolis
had a school resource officer program that was discontinued after
George Floyd's death in twenty twenty as a part of
the defund the police movement in Minneapolis. The contract the

(02:10:42):
school system had with the police department to supply school
resource officers to the school.

Speaker 4 (02:10:47):
Was allowed to expire.

Speaker 6 (02:10:49):
Now we have people like us asking why are they
not armed officers?

Speaker 4 (02:10:54):
Oh goodness, gracious, I'm sorry. I got a push from it. Sorry,
why are they not.

Speaker 6 (02:11:01):
School officers allowed inside the schools? The state of Minnesota
has passed standards for schools to establish school resource offices,
but they have yet to return to the.

Speaker 4 (02:11:14):
I'm sorry, this is like flashing before me.

Speaker 6 (02:11:18):
Sorry, I just saw a comment that said it take
the National Guard from d C and put them in schools.

Speaker 4 (02:11:24):
Yeah, so if that is true that they allowed.

Speaker 6 (02:11:28):
It to expire, it would go beyond course with Minneapolis
and their defund the police movement, which, of course we know.

Speaker 4 (02:11:38):
That what's his name, Tim Walls is a part of that.
Sit down, folks, because what I'm about to read to
you from the New York Post is pretty damning when
it comes to this shooter, aside from the fact that
the shooter recognizes themselves as a trans person.

Speaker 6 (02:12:00):
Sorry, I don't know why this is happening to me.
It's the second day in a row. Robin who used
to be Robert talk about uh, murdering filthy Zionists. That's
what he wrote about. Westman is twenty three years old,

(02:12:26):
also wrote slogans such as free Palestine in a journal
he wrote in a carrillic cyrillic alphabet, which the Post
has translated. YouTube clips showing diary pages were posted online
and since deleted by the channel.

Speaker 4 (02:12:47):
Quote. If I will carry out a racially motivated attack,
it would most likely be against the filthy Zionist Jews,
he wrote in one day disgusting entry, saying quote, I
hate those entitled penny sniffing expletives. The word begins with

(02:13:10):
the k.

Speaker 6 (02:13:12):
Westman also wrote six million wasn't enough a reference to
the number of Jews, of course, who were Holocaust victims.
On the side of the ammunition magazines he filmed before
shooting the children at the Annunciation Catholic Church said things

(02:13:34):
like destroy Hias, the Jewish refugee aid group. You made
other attacks on Jews as well as talking about the
assassination of President Donald Trump. Now to have someone like

(02:13:56):
the mayor of Minneapolis talking about how we shouldn't say
anything to this individual or to transgenders, Let's do one better.
Let's ask the transgender community as a conservative would be
asked or a MAGA person would be asked if this

(02:14:16):
were January six all over again. Do they denounce this
because all of this? In fact, this person says that
if they were going to take out a racial attack,
they would against the giants Zionus Jews, but instead.

Speaker 4 (02:14:36):
Chose children.

Speaker 6 (02:14:39):
That they quote said that they would enjoy doing. Now,
CNN is doing everything it can to stay away from
this because again, it is not their preferred shooter.

Speaker 4 (02:14:56):
It's not. They are all already referring to the individual
as they them. They are honoring the pronouns of the shooter,
which shows you how pathetic there. We can't hemorrhage enough viewers.
Let's be on the wrong side of this too. Does

(02:15:17):
the shooter refer to themselves as they them will will
honor that.

Speaker 6 (02:15:23):
They Them's appeared to be frustrated with Zionists and Catholics,
probably because he believes that transgender individuals don't receive enough
respect in the United States of America. Yeah, they'll say
something like that. There'll be an argument about it. People
will scream in Hollowell, I don't agree with that. Everything

(02:15:44):
that this person stands for is right. In a wheelhouse
of the Democrat Party, you can find anybody. You can
throw a dart on a picture of everyone who is
a Democrat and they agree with some level of disgusting
behavior by this person.

Speaker 4 (02:16:05):
You know they do free Palestine? Sure, they do throw
a dart, hit anybody. Hakem Jeffries, Hakim Jefferies. Should you
should they free Palestine? Of course?

Speaker 1 (02:16:15):
He agrees.

Speaker 4 (02:16:17):
Huh, of course he does. Do you believe that transgender
people should have more rights than others? Well, I don't
believe that they should have more rights, but I do
believe that they are a protected class. That's the same thing, Hakim,
that's the same thing.

Speaker 6 (02:16:38):
The protected class means that would imply that the other
groups aren't protected.

Speaker 4 (02:16:43):
That's that's what that means. Some people don't understand that,
but you know whatever, So it goes. But they're gonna
have to reconcile with this as they do. Is this
it is?

Speaker 14 (02:16:55):
This?

Speaker 1 (02:16:56):
Is this?

Speaker 4 (02:16:56):
CNN?

Speaker 6 (02:16:58):
Is this CNN not being able to figure out how
to describe this individual. So this is a video, No,
this is yeah, I gotta get to the fast forward
to this part with boris over at CNN.

Speaker 4 (02:17:10):
Let me see what he says. Here.

Speaker 13 (02:17:11):
Are continuing to follow the latest details about this shooter.
Apparently they targeted the Annunciation Catholic Church and school, specifically,
trying to barricade people inside as they shot through the windows.
If police say an eight year old and a ten
year old are dead, at least two kids right now
in the hospital in critical.

Speaker 4 (02:17:30):
Position, it's gotta keep calling him they.

Speaker 19 (02:17:35):
And that's it.

Speaker 4 (02:17:35):
That's all you need to know.

Speaker 6 (02:17:39):
This Again, it's a sad state of where we are,
but it is where we are. People saying, don't politicize it.

Speaker 4 (02:17:47):
What's CNN doing?

Speaker 1 (02:17:50):
Well?

Speaker 4 (02:17:51):
If CNN isn't politicizing it. What are they doing?

Speaker 6 (02:17:55):
Are they just chying to show respect to the person
who show kids.

Speaker 4 (02:18:03):
I don't know what you say to this nonsense. All
of it is actually kind of sad to watch. Brandon writes,
rees you need to get State Rep. Chris of fishbuye on.

Speaker 6 (02:18:15):
He tried to introduce legislation on Staniel ground laws in
public places like churches right now people have a duty
to retreat. Absolutely ridiculous. You can see a bunch of
elderly people trying to escape. You know, I will say this,
you know that's you know, I almost find it weird
that that's a New England thing. It is weird that

(02:18:38):
that's a New England thing. I don't think it's everywhere,
but it is a very elite, liberal New England.

Speaker 4 (02:18:46):
Thing, where you know, you just let them, let them
get what they want. And I find that.

Speaker 6 (02:18:54):
Odd because I kind of think that people in New England.

Speaker 4 (02:18:58):
Are a little tougher than that.

Speaker 6 (02:19:02):
Michael Ce you there were not typos while people are
writing in the chat room and kept refreshing, so I
had to go back to it.

Speaker 4 (02:19:08):
It wasn't you, it was me. My apologies that.

Speaker 6 (02:19:11):
I don't again I don't get these retreat folks, because
that's just not in.

Speaker 4 (02:19:15):
The DNA of people anywhere.

Speaker 6 (02:19:18):
I know that there are some people, you know, neely mouth,
you know, chump types, punk types. You know, like that
guy in Baltimore who started crying after they arrested the
guy who was saying he wanted to stab his family

(02:19:40):
and pregnant girlfriend, and to protect that he called the
police that this guy was threatening him.

Speaker 4 (02:19:46):
And then when he gets arrested, starts crying. I did,
wouldn't get arrested. Now he's gonna think that I'm racist.

Speaker 6 (02:19:55):
Well, if that's the case, bozo, just let him take
out the family.

Speaker 4 (02:20:01):
And I don't.

Speaker 6 (02:20:02):
Again, still not getting it. Someone's gonna have to explain
it to me. I think the embarrassment is so real
that they'll never explain it to me. I don't see
one person explaining that to me. Even those on the
left who think that I'm a jerk for making fun

(02:20:23):
of the guy, they won't even stand up for him.

Speaker 4 (02:20:28):
It takes a special type of chump to do that.

Speaker 6 (02:20:33):
Him be more concerned about his I don't know, racial
standing in the world than protecting his family. No, sir,
go on in have at it. Take whatever you want.
I was getting a little bored with that flat screen TV. Anyway,
it's time to buy a new one. Oh no, you

(02:20:55):
take it, disenfranchised soul.

Speaker 4 (02:21:00):
Perhaps you'd like to take the pickup trucks so you
can carry around my stuff that you've stolen from my home.
Oh that's okay, My insurance will cover it. Yes, I understand.

Speaker 6 (02:21:14):
Again, this all goes back to the whole original thing
about law enforcement and these politicians. They think that law
enforcement is bad. Because I wish they would just well
they can't say it, but I wish they would. I
wish Chris Murphy, I wish the lamont A g Tong.
I wish they would say the racist, bigoted thing out loud.

(02:21:39):
I wish they would just look me in the eye
and they just go, look, Reese, come on, many you know,
crime is just a thing they do. We can't just
go on arresting them all the time. How are we
going to take care of them if we don't at least,

(02:22:01):
you know.

Speaker 4 (02:22:01):
Kind of let him slide. I wish they would just
say it. I know that's what they think. I know
they do. Sounds horrible, but I know they think it.
Oh look at them.

Speaker 6 (02:22:19):
Never gonna get ahead. We gotta cut him some slack.
We'll just cut him some slack as often as we can.
We won't punish him too harshly. We don't want to
disenfranchise them any further.

Speaker 4 (02:22:41):
I wish they just say.

Speaker 6 (02:22:42):
It cowards all of them, But I know they think it.
Don't get me wrong. I don't need them to tell me.
I know that's what they think. It's a lot of
people who are listening to this show think it too.

Speaker 4 (02:22:56):
You know who you are? Back? Tomorrow is tomorrow Thursday?
Oh yes, it is tomorrow's Thursday. You know what that means, folks.
We will be back with negro nonsense. It's been a while.
As I always say, radio was free. So we thank

(02:23:16):
you for paying attention. Remember to keep JC and your
hearts and in your mind. Shaw Patrick, we love you
and we miss you. Remember that panic is not planning.
So planning your work and working plan me. I'm recent
a radio. He is Mark Christopher, and he's getting you
home and avoiding the Merit Parkway at the BPS Traffic Center.
Good night, Mark.

Speaker 23 (02:23:32):
Yeah, that that is pretty amazing.

Speaker 4 (02:23:36):
Now.

Speaker 23 (02:23:36):
It was called the Work Progress Administration that created jobs
for all the highest unemployment during the Great Depression. That's
when the Merrit Parkway was built. And it's interesting the
Work Progress Administration started in nineteen thirty five. It ended
in nineteen forty three, an actual government program that actually

(02:23:56):
ended pretty amazing.

Speaker 4 (02:23:57):
Wow, wait this Why did they call it the right though?

Speaker 1 (02:24:02):
Oh?

Speaker 23 (02:24:02):
I'll have to have to research at over.

Speaker 4 (02:24:03):
Okay, alright, no research it. Okay, yeah, all right.

Staniel ground laws twenty twenty three. As of mid twenty
twenty five, the number of states are Puerto Rico really.

Speaker 4 (02:24:50):
