Kamala Harris is stumbling toward the September 10th debate on ABC with wavering policy positions, fake accents targeting specific audiences, and her campaign bickering with rules for the debate - notably the muting of microphones as agreed to by Joe Biden's team.
Laura Carno, Executive Director of FASTER Colorado (Faculty/Administrator Safety Training & Emergency Response) joins Dan to break down the details of what we now know about the school shooting at Apalachee High School near Winder, Georgia.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is Dan Kaplis and welcome to today's online podcast
edition of The Dan Caplis Show. Please be sure to

single day on your favorite podcast platform. Once a student,
once the student makes it clear they're dangerous to other students,
they cannot be in that school. Can we just start
(00:22):
with that? Shouldn't all seen people, all political parties, are non,
all religions, all colors, all creeds. Shouldn't we all be
able to agree on that? You will be stunned, stunned
to learn how many people ferociously, ferociously disagree with that premise.
(00:44):
You would be You wouldn't be able to sleep tonight
if you knew how many schools in Colorado, including in
allegedly conservative areas, how many school districts are ferociously opposed
to that kind And I'm not talking about speculation. I'm
talking about once a child, through a proper process, is
(01:09):
determined to be a threat to other students, they should
not be allowed in that school. All across Colorado, you
have people, and I'm talking about you have political people.
You have the political levels of school districts, etc. Who
oppose that. I'm not talking about everybody. Obviously, there are
(01:29):
plenty of saying at people in charge of schools who understand, no,
once a child is determined to be dangerous to other students,
they should not be allowed in that school. But you
have so many people on the left and even some
on the right, who say, no, every child is the
right to an education, and they have to be mainstreamed. Right,
So screw the rest of the kids. Forget and I'm
(01:51):
using the polite term, forget the rest of the kids
who would never hurt a flea, who just want to
grow up and have their life. They want to get
an education. So many on the left have the view that, oh,
that just makes them racist, that just makes them privileged. No,
they're just kids who are following the rules and they
(02:12):
want to go to school and be safe. But you
have this insanity almost always on the left. Oh, no,
every kid has a right to be in that school.
I mean, just look around, look at the things that
have happened in Colorado. And now, of course we're talking
about the Georgia case where FBI had been in contact
with this kid. It expressed I can't even call him
(02:33):
a kid this murder had had expressed this active interest
in school shootings, etc. I'm sorry at that point they
go to Alcatraz because that there is going to be
some I'm not saying they can't get an education anywhere,
and if it has to be on taxpayer do I'm fine,
but it's not going to be in that mainstream population
in your local high school. They forfeit that, right, Dan.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
I don't know if this is the same with you
growing up in Chicago, but for me, we called it
juvie or if you had to go to an alternative school,
there was the threat of that.
Speaker 3 (03:03):
There's a carrot and stick approach.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
I remember the name of it now.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
I never went there, but living in Livingston County in
my early youth, it was called Maxiboys' School, and it
was a reformatory kind of preparatory academy where they received
discipline and it actually gets them back on the right
path and they can rehabilitate themselves.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
But they've got to put in the effort. And if
they don't, Dan, that's the whole point.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
If there are no consequences for bad behavior, for threats
or anything else, why does a student why are they
entitled to be mainstreamed?
Speaker 3 (03:31):
To your point, they're not right.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
No, it's this leftist insanity. Insanity, the same insanity that
causes Kamala Harris to demand the school resource officers be
run out of schools in the interest of racial equity.
What an idiot. That is the stupidest thing any human
could ever say, and we see it said all the
time because it's just this crazy radical leftist ideology run amok.
(04:00):
And by the way, she can't possibly believe that, right,
she's pandering, and that's one of the things that ideologically
makes her so dangerous. She's willing to commit to all
of these psycho things that she knows are going to
be horrible for almost everybody if she thinks it will
help her win. And obviously she has made her full
back on radicalism and the radical left, because she's got
(04:21):
to know it is the stupidest idea ever to run
school resource officers out of school. How many people get
killed at that Georgia school yesterday if there's no school
resource officer? I know the answer, it's as many as
that monster wanted to kill. But she would have it
that way, right, in the interest of equity in the
interest of equity. Yeah, that monsters should be able to
(04:42):
kill all they want to kill. It is insanity. And
it's that same insanity that causes the left to say no,
even after a child is determined to be dangerous, they
are allowed to stay in that school. I mean, Ryan,
And I'm not free to talk about it right now
because clients will decide when to do that. Sure, but
(05:05):
I have sat in depositions and we went we went
to court, We fought for the right to make this
stuff public, and we won. The Castillos won. But I
have sat in depositions. But people have said, yeah, determined dangerous,
Yeah yeah, yeah, no, no, no, no, there they get to say,
but they have to use a different entrance than the victims.
(05:28):
Just garbage. I just insanity, insanity, unbelievable. Yeah, and uh,
hopefully that will be something. I'm not saying it's gonna
be a front and center issue come election day. But
we're all human, right, we all operate on a lot
of different levels, some of them right at the forefront
of our brains, others just kind of in our subconscious.
(05:50):
But you gotta believe come election day, one of the
reasons Trump is going to win is You're gonna have
a lot of people, including a lot of people who
don't like them, who are saying, wait a second, this
total crazy, you woke to the point of societal suicide garbage,
that that hurts us in so many ways. We just
got to get away from that. And I'm not saying
(06:11):
people are gonna walk into the voting booth thinking, oh yeah, okay,
that the left wants to run on school resource officers
and the left says that boy gets to go into
the bathroom in the shower with my girl and all this,
and that some will think about it that deliberately, but
I've got to believe they'll it'll permeate because it is.
It is a suicide pack.
Speaker 4 (06:31):
You know, we have to say woke, like everybody needs
to be woke, and you can talk about it. If you're
the wokest or woker, just stay more woke than less woke.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
Yeah, all right, right, you got to tell me right now, okay, alcohol, drugs,
prescription drugs, none of the above. Which which category are
you in?
Speaker 5 (06:57):
There?
Speaker 1 (06:58):
Olkham's razor simplest exblation.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
She has a very severe social anxiety disorder, which is
absolutely breathtaking. We talk about the career field that she
has chosen. In the public eye. I think she's very
uncomfortable in many public speaking situations.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
Oh you think, did she something breaks into the installation
and she's done one spongebath.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
The interview, it was supposed to be a town hall,
but it turned into kind of an interview. It's Sean
Hannity with Donald Trump last night. But the one thing
he revealed was you nailed it. Dan Kamalo wanted a
table for the debate coming up on ABC. There's something
about her than the muted mic. Yeah, something about sitting
at a table. She has to have that comfort.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
None of us need to be freud to figure that out. Right, No, right,
it's an insecurity It's a level of anxiety, intense anxiety
and insecurity where you need that shield, you need that
protection in front of you. I also think she's worried
about the visuals, et cetera. But the reason she'd be
worried about the visuals and she'll probably have some soapbox
(08:02):
or something she stands on to negate. The height thing
is not because of the height, because, as I said yesterday,
there are so many short people who are the most powerful,
impressive people say, I try a case. I try a
case run last November up in the amazing Well County Courthouse.
It was a semi case. Our client now deceased, wonderful
man and so seriously injured. But anyway, I tried the
(08:26):
case with one of the greatest lawyers I've ever tried
a case with, Melissa Winters, and she's my colleague, and
we're about to go try another case together. And Melissa
Ryan is shorter than Kamala Harris, but she is the strongest,
a force of nature, absolutely brilliant, and I'll never forget.
And this trial was a very, very emotional of important
(08:49):
victory because my client, wonderful man, did not have long
to live when that verdict came in. And so I'll
never forget these wonderful jurors. And a group of them
came up to Melissa after the verdict and they said,
you are so small. This one woman juror said to her,
you are so small, but you are so mighty. I'll
(09:09):
ever forget that. And so you can have short of
height people who are incredibly powerful and strong. That's not
Kamala Harris. Kamala Harris is the epitome of weakness in
so many different ways, and I think that's one reason
she wanted everybody sitting down at this debate, not standing
side by side. Hey, we'll come back to the phone lines.
(09:30):
We'll start with glennon Elizabeth will take other calls, text, etc.
But can we all just agree on this, Like in
Georgia and like in Colorado, once a student has been
determined by a school or district to pose a danger
to other students, they cannot be allowed in school. They
cannot be allowed in a mainstream school. You're on the
Dan Caplas Show.
Speaker 3 (09:52):
And now back to the Dan Kaplis Show podcast.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
I was going to play so, but I've got to
respond to that. Obviously, I disagreed with that. My point
about Kamala Harris insisting on a table at Tuesday's debate,
which she isn't going to get, which is what really
has her freaked out, not the muted mic, which, by
the way, the Harris camp saying they have a side
deal with ABC, that ABC may change that rule in
(10:15):
the middle of the debate, and that ABC may unmute
Trump's mike if they determine it's necessary for fairness. So anyway, Yeah,
we'll see.
Speaker 3 (10:25):
A brief story behind that song by Randy Newman. I
was telling Kelly.
Speaker 2 (10:29):
I was about eight years old when that song came out,
and I was small for my grade. I was young
for my grade, but also small. I didn't grow till
later my senior year, and I heard this song and
I went crying to my mom. I said, guys singing
this song so short, people have no reason to live.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
Mom, And she's like, well, right, you're just a little guy.
You're still growing. Okay, that's encouraging. Yeah, and you did
five ten. I'll take it. No boy, set pig now,
Glyne and Elizabeth, you're on the Dan Kapla Show.
Speaker 6 (11:00):
Welcome, Hey, Dan, I's going jet?
Speaker 7 (11:03):
Is that?
Speaker 6 (11:03):
A quick little side note for Ryan always like here
in this Michigan stuff, because I started out as an
auto worker's kid with too little money and has what
then became a yuppi larva over in Okamist and then
got transplanted to Traverse City, got those reality up there.
But but we used to kind of have a fear
(11:24):
of camp Bugsy up there, where like if you got
caught up too bad, you'd go to Pugsy Correctional Facilities
Juvenile Wing. But they've closed all that stuff. I mean,
there's not a lot of stuff to hear anymore. I'd
rather try and talk it out with you in the
office counseling room instead of getting you legitimate help if
you start talking about those kind of things, so they
don't get the help they need.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
Yeah, Gay, Glenn appreciate the calling that. And I think
one of the things we see and listen, there are
schools that do it right right, and then there are
schools that do it wrong when it comes to these
dangerous students. One of the phenomena I think that's endangering
many schools is administrators so concerned about their stats. They
don't want to acknowledge they have a problem. They don't
want to acknowledge any quote failure, and so you know,
(12:10):
things just get downplayed and soft pedaled, and then all
these other sudden these dangers are allowed to just percolate
and build and expand and eventually explode.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
And to Glenn's point, what is the mission there? Then
it's not helping the kids that need the help. And
I got to tell you, Dan, and I know you
had this experience too, and I will go to my
grave pounding the table on this one. I learned the
most from sports, structure, discipline consequences, teamwork, you know, pulling
together in the same direction. You're not an island. You're
(12:40):
part of this team, and you've got to contribute to
the team. You've got to be held to a standard.
And what Maxi Boys and all these military, you know,
reform schools did they gave these kids that might not
be getting it in their homes. Dand structure, discipline, consequences.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
And that's a great point. And so there may be
advantages to these dangerous students to being in anron like that,
But honestly, Ryan, that's not my concern. My concern is
protecting the innocent way absolutely, and then you want to
respect the basic human dignity of the wrongdoers, the dangerous students,
but first and foremost protect the innocent ones. And that's
(13:15):
what so many on the left are absolutely opposed to. No,
even if a child's determined to be dangerous to the
student body, they get to stay in that school. That
is the position of so many on the left. And
I've seen it, and yeah, and we've seen the consequences.
Let's go to Ourveda talk to Dean. You're on the
Dan Kaplis show welcome.
Speaker 7 (13:34):
Hey, hey, Dan, how are you doing today?
Speaker 1 (13:36):
Good?
Speaker 7 (13:37):
I was call I totally agree with you. I mean,
how is it the FBI screwed up again? I mean
they already have span the radar and he just you know,
I mean they're just a slop of the organization anymore.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
Well, I think you got to look at the FBI
in two different ways, right, just like you look at
any police department. Look at Denver Police Department. I know
so many of these guys and gals, they're the best
you ever going to find. But you look at the
political arm of the Denver Police Department, you look at
the political level of the police department, that's a different deal.
I think you have to look at the FBI the
same way. You look at the great men and women,
(14:12):
and you look at the political level. That's a different deal.
Speaker 7 (14:16):
Yeah, the individual agents are doing what they're told, But
then you've got the guys, oh, you know, just let
them go, and here we are four dead and how
many were injured, and you know, payoffs.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
So yeah, and I Dian I, as the son of
a cop, I would bring that back to the politics
of the situation, right, I would bring it back to
the politics from the top rather than the line men
and women in any level of law enforcement. And you
look at the politics, and that often is the explanation
for things that are inexplicable. Brian and Arvada. You're on
(14:48):
the Dan Kapla show. Welcome.
Speaker 5 (14:52):
Hey, Dan, I guess we need a national mandate to
buy back guns. You've got to go with Kamalia reason.
Speaker 1 (15:01):
That'll why.
Speaker 5 (15:02):
I hope they talk aboutfs that's their solution, Dan. And
you know what's funny about all these shooters, they're always
on the FBI radar. Oh yeah, we knew about him
like six months ago, a year ago. Maybe if the
FBI and you know, Garland and all these idiots that
are corrupt as heck would actually focus on what they
(15:23):
should be focusing on instead of walking up Grandma for
singing in front of an abortion clinic, or going after
Grandma for walking into the capitol, you know, maybe it'd
all be a little bit safer. It's just our FBI,
our Department of Justice. They're all politicized, they're all corrupt
as hack. If anybody can't see that, you know, I
(15:46):
don't know what to tell you.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
Well, Brian didn't mean to cut you off. And I'm
so glad you mentioned the pro lifers who are being jailed.
I mean, and it is one of the greatest threats
to America right now, because listen, no foreign enemy is
ever going to destroy us. I think the only way
we're destroyed is from within. And one of the ways
you can destroy America from within is you can engage
(16:08):
in all of this lawfare, for example, and you can
distort the justice system, so you have two different justice
systems depending on whether you're a lefty or a conservative.
But this brings us back to Okay, we have this big,
big presentation yesterday, all these people indicted Justice Department claiming
Russian interference in the election. Where are the indictments for Iran?
(16:32):
I mean, the Justice Department was forced to acknowledge weeks
ago that Iran is trying to influence the election, and
it's very clearly trying to influence the election against Donald
Trump because Iran, without question, for obvious reasons, wants Kamala
Harris to be president. And where are all the indictments there? Right?
And by the way, when we come back, I want
to get your take on this. What do you make
(16:54):
of Putin? And let's hope We can start by a
green that Putin is Satan is just evil in its
rawst form on the face of the earth. It's evil
in a suit. So that's the starting point with Putin.
But Putin comes out. We'll play the comments for you
with interpreters. Putin comes out and says that, hey, he
(17:14):
wants Kamala Harris to be president. What do you make
of those comments? Say five five for zero five A
two five five the number TEXTDA and five seven seven
three nine. If you just joined us, thank you. Another
thing we're talking about is can we all just agree
that this common practice right now? And I think the
facts are going to show that it unfolded in Georgia. Also,
(17:36):
this common practice of kids who have been determined to
be dangerous to their classmates or should have been determined
to be dangerous because the information was known, the conscious
deliberate decisions to leave them in schools, to leave them
in mainstream schools, is suicidal. It's immoral, and it has
(18:03):
to end now. And that is the active policy in many,
many more places than you would imagine. Even after a
child goes through the entire process and is formally determined
to be dangerous to their classmates. They are left in
school in many, many, many Colorado schools. It is insanity.
But this is what the left brings you. You're on
(18:25):
the Dan Caplis Show.
Speaker 3 (18:28):
You're listening to the Dan Kaplis Show podcast.
Speaker 1 (18:31):
My brother endorse me, and the whole family endorsed me.
I said, who are all adds? Let me let me
there's something. There's something weird with that guy. He's a
weird guy. JD is not weird.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
He's a solid rock.
Speaker 1 (18:48):
I happen to be a very solid rock. We're not weird.
We're other things, perhaps, but we're not weird. Y is
funny for thirty six. Let's go to the VIP line.
Talk to somebody who's doing the work of angels out there.
Laura Carno is saving lives in a very real, tangible way.
Obviously applies directly to the latest tour, this one in Georgia.
(19:10):
We know others are being planned. Other school shootings are
being planned as we speak. The only question is are
we going to do everything in our power to have
a good guy or Gail there with the gun to
protect these innocent children when the next monster shows up?
Laura says yes, Laura, welcome back to the Dan Kaplis show.
Speaker 8 (19:29):
Hey, thanks Dan for having me and I appreciate it.
Speaker 1 (19:31):
Well, thanks for what you do. And let's start, if
you would, by telling people how to learn more about
Faster and then fill folks in a bit on that sure.
Speaker 8 (19:39):
Things, so folks can go to Faster Colorado dot org
for more information. And what we do is we help
those schools that have chosen to have armed security as
a part of their security protocols, whether that's a full
time armed security team that is dedicated security professionals that
have no other job, or if it's the teacher, the coach,
(20:02):
the janitor, the principal, those kind of folks. So we
provide them with world class firearms and tactical training so
that if God forbid, something happens like what just happened
in Georgia, they're in the best possible position to save lives.
Speaker 1 (20:17):
And I love what you do. And then break it
down in Colorado what you're doing day to day in
the trenches.
Speaker 8 (20:23):
Yeah, and so you know what we're doing in Colorado.
We're still in the middle of armor training programs and
I know it's not summer anymore, but we are training
actually all the way through November just because of the
number of school districts in Colorado that have those armed
security folks. Most of them that we train through Faster
(20:44):
Colorado are those armed school staffers. And again those are
people who they have a job in a school, they
just are are have that extra training to be armed
on campus so that they possibly could be right there
at the point of attack, so that we don't have
to have those four people die that's just happened in Georgia.
Speaker 1 (21:06):
And what does that training look like.
Speaker 8 (21:08):
Yeah, so our instructors, first of all, are all active
duty law enforcement instructors, and we felt it was important
to make sure that the law the training that law
enforcement has in order to stop an active shooter, that
these school staffers and school security teams have access to
that same training. So it is really top of the
(21:29):
line training. We have four different levels, so they progress
through those levels through the years, so that we've got
folks who've been with us all eight years that we've
been training. And I'll tell you what, these are some
very highly skilled people. They take their job very very
seriously to protect their kids at school.
Speaker 1 (21:49):
And how do you determine in the end whether they're
ready and able to go into that environment and succeed
against a shooter.
Speaker 7 (21:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (21:57):
So you know, at FASTER we have a part of
that because they have to pass our class, and part
of passing our class is the post qualification and handgun proficiency,
and so what that is is the same test that
law enforcement passes to get out of the academy, and
they have to take that same qualification test every year.
(22:19):
What's different about FASTER is we actually add two extra
shots to that test and they have to pass at
one hundred percent to pass Faster. The other part of
making sure they're qualified is what happens at the school.
They have to be vetted by their school, by their
school board, by their administration to even be considered to
(22:40):
go to FASTER, and then Faster just provides their annual training.
So school boards now are requiring things like weekly dry
fire and monthly time at the range and quarterly movement
within this school. So it's pretty sophisticated and pretty serious.
It should be.
Speaker 1 (22:58):
This is one of the environments, right that anybody could
find anywhere to operate in, is an active school shooter.
You've got all these innocent students around, whether you can
see them or they're just through these walls that can
often be penetrated by AMMO. And so yeah, I can't
imagine a much tougher situation, but I do know this
(23:20):
that the toughest situation would be those poor students in
the school. The monsters are there with guns seeking to
slaughter them in large numbers, and they have no good
guy or gail with a gun to defend them. That
to me should be completely unacceptable morally.
Speaker 8 (23:40):
Yeah. Absolutely, And thank god that school resource officer was
there and it limited his appearance there stops the shooting,
and it limited the deaths to four. But four people,
Dan is more too many. And you know, I look
at this one of the mouth teachers named Richard aspin
(24:02):
while who was also a coach, and so many of
the school staffers that come through faster are one of
the coaches in those school districts, And gosh, had he
had the chance and agreed to go through rigorous training,
could he have have saved those two children, saved that
other teacher, and gone home to his own family tonight
(24:24):
or last night. We'll never know the answer to that,
but gosh, I wish more people had had the option
to choose Laura.
Speaker 1 (24:31):
I think we do know the answer because we know
the answer from what happened in Georgia. We know the
answer from what you and I have seen happen over
and over again. Start with Georgia. As soon as this
monster saw a gun, a good guy with the gun,
he was done right. And we've seen the same thing.
We saw it stem We've seen it all over. We
saw it with homes that are a theater is so
(24:53):
many times not always as soon as they're faced with
the good guy or gail with the gun, you know,
they either laid down their weapon or they're taken.
Speaker 8 (25:01):
Out, Yeah, or they choose to end it themselves.
Speaker 5 (25:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (25:05):
Great point.
Speaker 8 (25:06):
Yeah, as happened in Arapa Ho.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
Yeah, great point. Great point. And so then, Laura, what
percentage right now of Colorado school districts. I'm not talking
about SROs, which, as you know, the left ran out
of a bunch of schools and then was forced to
back pedal on. But how many have these good guys
or girls placed through faster or trained through faster.
Speaker 8 (25:30):
Yeah, so Faster is working with schools in forty one
of Colorado's one hundred and seventy eight districts. So not
a majority at all, but fairly respectable. Most of the schools,
as you can imagine, the earliest adopters were all rural
schools because they know how long it takes law enforcement
(25:53):
to get there. But that really started to move into
suburban charter schools, where it's a little easier to have
a charter school board pass the policy as opposed to
a large school district that might not be all on board,
but you know, the suburban and charter schools and suburban
school district should be doing this mouth too. If you
have a five minute response time, four minute response time,
(26:16):
it's over. As you know, Dan, it's over. People are
already dead and injured, and we can't we can't continue
to have this happen. And you know, we're seeing in
this Georgia situation, as we've seen in so many of them,
that the school or at least law enforcement. This guy
in Georgia had just switched schools. So I'm not sure
(26:37):
if the school knew or if it was just law enforcement,
but these people are known to law enforcement. And the
question is, as we've asked it at East High School,
when you have a very dangerous person or potentially dangerous person,
how do you reconcile the rights of that person to
go to school versus one, hundreds or thousands of kids
that deserve to be safe.
Speaker 1 (26:58):
Well, that's the biggest no brainer in the history. To you,
the earth right is the safe kids. You choose to
protect the safe kids. But this crazy lefty ideology that says, oh, no,
the kid we've already determined to be dangerous has a
right to be in the school with the safe kids.
That's suicidal except for this, you know, maybe a better
(27:20):
word here, because it's not these politicians, and it's not
these political administrators who are putting their lives on the line.
They're putting the kids' lives on the line. So they
decide to play Russian Roulette with these kids lives so
they can prance around and talk about how woke they
are as administrators. I mean, that's as sick as it gets.
Speaker 8 (27:40):
Yeah, in Denver public schools, when they took school resource
officers out, you can bet that the headquarters with all
of those administrators was protected by armed security.
Speaker 1 (27:49):
Yeah, no, it is. Well, the good news is that
people like you are not just cursing the darkness. You're
lighting a candle. You're going out there you're doing the
hard work to save innocent lives. And again, if you
could give the website and how people can support.
Speaker 8 (28:04):
Your work, sure thing. Yeah, it's a privilege to do
what we do. I'll tell you that. Folks can go
to Faster Colorado dot org. If you are a school
a parent wants some information, contact us there. You can
also donate to the program to help us deliver this
to more schools every year.
Speaker 1 (28:21):
Well, Lauras, you appreciate it. Keep up the great work.
Speaker 8 (28:24):
Thanks Dan, thank you.
Speaker 1 (28:25):
That is our Laura Kernel with Faster. Hey, when we
come back, one of the top five political ads of
all time just appeared. I got to tell you about it.
When we come back, You're gonna love it. Here on
the Dan Kapla Show.
Speaker 3 (28:43):
And now back to the Dan Kaplas Show podcast Without.
Speaker 1 (28:46):
Voters Suppression, The accent is back.
Speaker 9 (28:49):
Stacey Abrams would be the governor of Georgia.
Speaker 4 (28:53):
Andrew Gillham is the governor of Florida.
Speaker 10 (28:56):
First we saw her develop the magical accent when she
was down south.
Speaker 4 (29:01):
I'm gonna get into some business now, okay.
Speaker 1 (29:04):
And now it's back.
Speaker 8 (29:05):
You all help this win.
Speaker 5 (29:06):
In twenty twenty and we don't do it again in.
Speaker 8 (29:09):
Twenty twenty four.
Speaker 1 (29:10):
We gonna beat him in November.
Speaker 9 (29:11):
Well, what are you gonna do about it?
Speaker 1 (29:12):
We all know you don't talk like that.
Speaker 11 (29:14):
You've been vice president for four years.
Speaker 5 (29:16):
He does not look it like he talks it.
Speaker 1 (29:19):
She doesn't talk like this. When we get this done together, Moran.
Speaker 7 (29:23):
I know how to talk to you.
Speaker 11 (29:24):
I mean, come on, lasting it's justified.
Speaker 1 (29:28):
Can I get a witness and they know?
Speaker 11 (29:30):
We all know she's just a big walking bag of artifice.
Speaker 1 (29:36):
Megan Kelly not impressed. That's that's a great set up.
Brian too. I can't say it's the best political ad
I've ever seen, but I would put it top five,
and I'm trying to find it now so we can
at least play this sound for people. But it's fresh.
I've never seen it before. It just popped up on
CNN and good to see the Trump campaign up on CNN, right,
But it got my attention. The video's real well done.
(29:58):
It comes on with the debate you've been waiting for,
or the debate we've all been waiting for, and then
it has a picture of Kamala Harris and it says
Harris V and then another picture of Kamala Harris, Harris v. Harris.
So the debate you've all been waiting for, Harris v. Harris,
(30:18):
and then it launches into Kamala Harris on this policy.
You know, one position opposite position, right on down the line,
beautiful ad and I think it's going to be so
very effective. People just don't like being lied to. She'd
have a much better chance if she just stood up
and said, hey, this is who I am, this is
(30:40):
what I believe. I know that you may not agree
with everything I have to say, but hey, I'm a
lot better than the other guys. She'd have a much
better chance doing that than she is trying to pull
off this con now. People have too much self respect
to buy into that. Eight five five for zero five
eight two five five The number takes da in five seven,
(31:01):
seven three nine, And it is these singles. You know
this from your life, right, No matter what you do,
you know this from your life. The very quickest way
somebody can lose you is to lie to you, to
be dishonest. And we all know deception takes all different
sorts of forms, all different sorts of levels, but it
stinks to you the same, It offends you, It disrespects
you when somebody tries to deceive you. So she is
(31:25):
taking the quicket quickest possible off ramp to defeat in
this race to be this phony and this disingenuous, whether
it's phony accent, phony, political positions, whatever, especially when her
opponent not everybody's cup of tea, but or an opponent
is as authentic as they come. Right. I mean, one
(31:46):
thing you have to say about President Trump is and
it's it's how he won in sixteen. He is just
what you see is what you get eight five five
or zero five eight two five five. Glad you're here.
We've been talking a lot about this insane on the
left when it comes to schools and leaving students who've
been determined to be dangerous to other students after a process,
(32:08):
leaving them in the school. And that is a common policy,
not everywhere in Colorado, but many, many places. So you
better check with your own school district. Texter Dan Washington
Post writes the shooter had been begging for mental health
support for months before this happened. Dan Kamalafied couldn't find
the border wall if she hit it with the campaign bus.
(32:30):
We do have that cut today, don't we Ryan, We
were talking about it at the end of the show yesterday. Yeah,
here it is CNN K File report. We were speculating
because this just happened at the end of the show.
Why do you think CNN did this story tonight?
Speaker 11 (32:42):
K File investigates in a new report you'll see first
out Front. The K File team scoured Kamala Harris's tweets
and statements going all the way back to twenty seventeen,
and what they found was more than fifty instances of
Harris slamming Trump's border wall.
Speaker 1 (32:58):
But now new.
Speaker 11 (33:00):
Parris campaign ads actually showcase that very wall.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
As a border state prosecutor, she took on drug cartels
and jail gang members for smuggling weapons and drugs across
the border.
Speaker 11 (33:15):
And on top of critical tweets, Harris also wrote in
her twenty nineteen book quote, there was a bigger reason
to oppose the border wall.
Speaker 1 (33:23):
A useless wall on.
Speaker 11 (33:24):
The southern border would be nothing more than a symbol,
a monument, standing in opposition to not just everything I value,
but to the fundamental values upon which this country was built.
Speaker 1 (33:32):
How could I vote to.
Speaker 11 (33:33):
Build what would be little more than a monument designed
to send the cold hard message keep out well ca files.
Andrew Kaczinski joins me. Now, so, Andrew, I mean you
and you all have gone through, I mean scoured an
incredible amount of material.
Speaker 1 (33:49):
Tell me more about what you found. Yeah, that's right.
Speaker 10 (33:51):
We found more than fifty of those those tweets criticizing
the border wall before she used that in her ad.
And I want people to take a look at just
a few of what she said here. She called it wasteful, useless,
a waste of taxpayer money, a vanity wall project, wasteful
border wall, a stupid wall, a medieval vanity project, and
an unnecessary wall. And those are really just I mean,
(34:14):
there were more of it was just like ten or fifty, but.
Speaker 1 (34:17):
There was really a lot of.
Speaker 10 (34:18):
This was the common refrained during the campaign. You read
that quote where she said it was against everything that
not only she stood for everything America stood aborder, but
and she brought this up a lot. Take a listen
to just one instance of that. In twenty nineteen.
Speaker 4 (34:34):
It's the president's vanity project.
Speaker 9 (34:36):
His multi billion dollar vanity project called a wall is
nothing more than a distraction from the fact that he
actually has it focused on working people in America.
Speaker 1 (34:48):
So why do you think CNN is doing this piece
helped gets you the grand finale that when we Qulbeck.
But the answer to this question, I think makes a
lot of things clear. Why do you think CNA man
is doing this hip piece on the wall if that's
what it really is. You're on the Dan Kapla Show.
This is Dan Kaplis and welcome to today's online podcast

once the student makes it clear they're dangerous to other students,
they cannot be in that school. Can we just start
(00:22):
with that? Shouldn't all seen people, all political parties, are non,
all religions, all colors, all creeds. Shouldn't we all be
able to agree on that? You will be stunned, stunned
to learn how many people ferociously, ferociously disagree with that premise.
(00:44):
You would be You wouldn't be able to sleep tonight
if you knew how many schools in Colorado, including in
allegedly conservative areas, how many school districts are ferociously opposed
to that kind And I'm not talking about speculation. I'm
talking about once a child, through a proper process, is
(01:09):
determined to be a threat to other students, they should
not be allowed in that school. All across Colorado, you
have people, and I'm talking about you have political people.
You have the political levels of school districts, etc. Who
oppose that. I'm not talking about everybody. Obviously, there are
(01:29):
plenty of saying at people in charge of schools who understand, no,
once a child is determined to be dangerous to other students,
they should not be allowed in that school. But you
have so many people on the left and even some
on the right, who say, no, every child is the
right to an education, and they have to be mainstreamed. Right,
So screw the rest of the kids. Forget and I'm
(01:51):
using the polite term, forget the rest of the kids
who would never hurt a flea, who just want to
grow up and have their life. They want to get
an education. So many on the left have the view that, oh,
that just makes them racist, that just makes them privileged. No,
they're just kids who are following the rules and they
(02:12):
want to go to school and be safe. But you
have this insanity almost always on the left. Oh, no,
every kid has a right to be in that school.
I mean, just look around, look at the things that
have happened in Colorado. And now, of course we're talking
about the Georgia case where FBI had been in contact
with this kid. It expressed I can't even call him
(02:33):
a kid this murder had had expressed this active interest
in school shootings, etc. I'm sorry at that point they
go to Alcatraz because that there is going to be
some I'm not saying they can't get an education anywhere,
and if it has to be on taxpayer do I'm fine,
but it's not going to be in that mainstream population
in your local high school. They forfeit that, right, Dan.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
I don't know if this is the same with you
growing up in Chicago, but for me, we called it
juvie or if you had to go to an alternative school,
there was the threat of that.
Speaker 3 (03:03):
There's a carrot and stick approach.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
I remember the name of it now.
Speaker 2 (03:06):
I never went there, but living in Livingston County in
my early youth, it was called Maxiboys' School, and it
was a reformatory kind of preparatory academy where they received
discipline and it actually gets them back on the right
path and they can rehabilitate themselves.
Speaker 1 (03:20):
But they've got to put in the effort. And if
they don't, Dan, that's the whole point.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
If there are no consequences for bad behavior, for threats
or anything else, why does a student why are they
entitled to be mainstreamed?
Speaker 3 (03:31):
To your point, they're not right.
Speaker 1 (03:33):
No, it's this leftist insanity. Insanity, the same insanity that
causes Kamala Harris to demand the school resource officers be
run out of schools in the interest of racial equity.
What an idiot. That is the stupidest thing any human
could ever say, and we see it said all the
time because it's just this crazy radical leftist ideology run amok.
(04:00):
And by the way, she can't possibly believe that, right,
she's pandering, and that's one of the things that ideologically
makes her so dangerous. She's willing to commit to all
of these psycho things that she knows are going to
be horrible for almost everybody if she thinks it will
help her win. And obviously she has made her full
back on radicalism and the radical left, because she's got
(04:21):
to know it is the stupidest idea ever to run
school resource officers out of school. How many people get
killed at that Georgia school yesterday if there's no school
resource officer? I know the answer, it's as many as
that monster wanted to kill. But she would have it
that way, right, in the interest of equity in the
interest of equity. Yeah, that monsters should be able to
(04:42):
kill all they want to kill. It is insanity. And
it's that same insanity that causes the left to say no,
even after a child is determined to be dangerous, they
are allowed to stay in that school. I mean, Ryan,
And I'm not free to talk about it right now
because clients will decide when to do that. Sure, but
(05:05):
I have sat in depositions and we went we went
to court, We fought for the right to make this
stuff public, and we won. The Castillos won. But I
have sat in depositions. But people have said, yeah, determined dangerous,
Yeah yeah, yeah, no, no, no, no, there they get to say,
but they have to use a different entrance than the victims.
(05:28):
Just garbage. I just insanity, insanity, unbelievable. Yeah, and uh,
hopefully that will be something. I'm not saying it's gonna
be a front and center issue come election day. But
we're all human, right, we all operate on a lot
of different levels, some of them right at the forefront
of our brains, others just kind of in our subconscious.
(05:50):
But you gotta believe come election day, one of the
reasons Trump is going to win is You're gonna have
a lot of people, including a lot of people who
don't like them, who are saying, wait a second, this
total crazy, you woke to the point of societal suicide garbage,
that that hurts us in so many ways. We just
got to get away from that. And I'm not saying
(06:11):
people are gonna walk into the voting booth thinking, oh yeah, okay,
that the left wants to run on school resource officers
and the left says that boy gets to go into
the bathroom in the shower with my girl and all this,
and that some will think about it that deliberately, but
I've got to believe they'll it'll permeate because it is.
It is a suicide pack.
Speaker 4 (06:31):
You know, we have to say woke, like everybody needs
to be woke, and you can talk about it. If you're
the wokest or woker, just stay more woke than less woke.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
Yeah, all right, right, you got to tell me right now, okay, alcohol, drugs,
prescription drugs, none of the above. Which which category are
you in?
Speaker 5 (06:57):
There?
Speaker 1 (06:58):
Olkham's razor simplest exblation.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
She has a very severe social anxiety disorder, which is
absolutely breathtaking. We talk about the career field that she
has chosen. In the public eye. I think she's very
uncomfortable in many public speaking situations.
Speaker 1 (07:15):
Oh you think, did she something breaks into the installation
and she's done one spongebath.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
The interview, it was supposed to be a town hall,
but it turned into kind of an interview. It's Sean
Hannity with Donald Trump last night. But the one thing
he revealed was you nailed it. Dan Kamalo wanted a
table for the debate coming up on ABC. There's something
about her than the muted mic. Yeah, something about sitting
at a table. She has to have that comfort.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
None of us need to be freud to figure that out. Right, No, right,
it's an insecurity It's a level of anxiety, intense anxiety
and insecurity where you need that shield, you need that
protection in front of you. I also think she's worried
about the visuals, et cetera. But the reason she'd be
worried about the visuals and she'll probably have some soapbox
(08:02):
or something she stands on to negate. The height thing
is not because of the height, because, as I said yesterday,
there are so many short people who are the most powerful,
impressive people say, I try a case. I try a
case run last November up in the amazing Well County Courthouse.
It was a semi case. Our client now deceased, wonderful
man and so seriously injured. But anyway, I tried the
(08:26):
case with one of the greatest lawyers I've ever tried
a case with, Melissa Winters, and she's my colleague, and
we're about to go try another case together. And Melissa
Ryan is shorter than Kamala Harris, but she is the strongest,
a force of nature, absolutely brilliant, and I'll never forget.
And this trial was a very, very emotional of important
(08:49):
victory because my client, wonderful man, did not have long
to live when that verdict came in. And so I'll
never forget these wonderful jurors. And a group of them
came up to Melissa after the verdict and they said,
you are so small. This one woman juror said to her,
you are so small, but you are so mighty. I'll
(09:09):
ever forget that. And so you can have short of
height people who are incredibly powerful and strong. That's not
Kamala Harris. Kamala Harris is the epitome of weakness in
so many different ways, and I think that's one reason
she wanted everybody sitting down at this debate, not standing
side by side. Hey, we'll come back to the phone lines.
(09:30):
We'll start with glennon Elizabeth will take other calls, text, etc.
But can we all just agree on this, Like in
Georgia and like in Colorado, once a student has been
determined by a school or district to pose a danger
to other students, they cannot be allowed in school. They
cannot be allowed in a mainstream school. You're on the
Dan Caplas Show.
Speaker 3 (09:52):
And now back to the Dan Kaplis Show podcast.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
I was going to play so, but I've got to
respond to that. Obviously, I disagreed with that. My point
about Kamala Harris insisting on a table at Tuesday's debate,
which she isn't going to get, which is what really
has her freaked out, not the muted mic, which, by
the way, the Harris camp saying they have a side
deal with ABC, that ABC may change that rule in
(10:15):
the middle of the debate, and that ABC may unmute
Trump's mike if they determine it's necessary for fairness. So anyway, Yeah,
we'll see.
Speaker 3 (10:25):
A brief story behind that song by Randy Newman. I
was telling Kelly.
Speaker 2 (10:29):
I was about eight years old when that song came out,
and I was small for my grade. I was young
for my grade, but also small. I didn't grow till
later my senior year, and I heard this song and
I went crying to my mom. I said, guys singing
this song so short, people have no reason to live.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
Mom, And she's like, well, right, you're just a little guy.
You're still growing. Okay, that's encouraging. Yeah, and you did
five ten. I'll take it. No boy, set pig now,
Glyne and Elizabeth, you're on the Dan Kapla Show.
Speaker 6 (11:00):
Welcome, Hey, Dan, I's going jet?
Speaker 7 (11:03):
Is that?
Speaker 6 (11:03):
A quick little side note for Ryan always like here
in this Michigan stuff, because I started out as an
auto worker's kid with too little money and has what
then became a yuppi larva over in Okamist and then
got transplanted to Traverse City, got those reality up there.
But but we used to kind of have a fear
(11:24):
of camp Bugsy up there, where like if you got
caught up too bad, you'd go to Pugsy Correctional Facilities
Juvenile Wing. But they've closed all that stuff. I mean,
there's not a lot of stuff to hear anymore. I'd
rather try and talk it out with you in the
office counseling room instead of getting you legitimate help if
you start talking about those kind of things, so they
don't get the help they need.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
Yeah, Gay, Glenn appreciate the calling that. And I think
one of the things we see and listen, there are
schools that do it right right, and then there are
schools that do it wrong when it comes to these
dangerous students. One of the phenomena I think that's endangering
many schools is administrators so concerned about their stats. They
don't want to acknowledge they have a problem. They don't
want to acknowledge any quote failure, and so you know,
(12:10):
things just get downplayed and soft pedaled, and then all
these other sudden these dangers are allowed to just percolate
and build and expand and eventually explode.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
And to Glenn's point, what is the mission there? Then
it's not helping the kids that need the help. And
I got to tell you, Dan, and I know you
had this experience too, and I will go to my
grave pounding the table on this one. I learned the
most from sports, structure, discipline consequences, teamwork, you know, pulling
together in the same direction. You're not an island. You're
(12:40):
part of this team, and you've got to contribute to
the team. You've got to be held to a standard.
And what Maxi Boys and all these military, you know,
reform schools did they gave these kids that might not
be getting it in their homes. Dand structure, discipline, consequences.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
And that's a great point. And so there may be
advantages to these dangerous students to being in anron like that,
But honestly, Ryan, that's not my concern. My concern is
protecting the innocent way absolutely, and then you want to
respect the basic human dignity of the wrongdoers, the dangerous students,
but first and foremost protect the innocent ones. And that's
(13:15):
what so many on the left are absolutely opposed to. No,
even if a child's determined to be dangerous to the
student body, they get to stay in that school. That
is the position of so many on the left. And
I've seen it, and yeah, and we've seen the consequences.
Let's go to Ourveda talk to Dean. You're on the
Dan Kaplis show welcome.
Speaker 7 (13:34):
Hey, hey, Dan, how are you doing today?
Speaker 1 (13:36):
Good?
Speaker 7 (13:37):
I was call I totally agree with you. I mean,
how is it the FBI screwed up again? I mean
they already have span the radar and he just you know,
I mean they're just a slop of the organization anymore.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
Well, I think you got to look at the FBI
in two different ways, right, just like you look at
any police department. Look at Denver Police Department. I know
so many of these guys and gals, they're the best
you ever going to find. But you look at the
political arm of the Denver Police Department, you look at
the political level of the police department, that's a different deal.
I think you have to look at the FBI the
same way. You look at the great men and women,
(14:12):
and you look at the political level. That's a different deal.
Speaker 7 (14:16):
Yeah, the individual agents are doing what they're told, But
then you've got the guys, oh, you know, just let
them go, and here we are four dead and how
many were injured, and you know, payoffs.
Speaker 1 (14:25):
So yeah, and I Dian I, as the son of
a cop, I would bring that back to the politics
of the situation, right, I would bring it back to
the politics from the top rather than the line men
and women in any level of law enforcement. And you
look at the politics, and that often is the explanation
for things that are inexplicable. Brian and Arvada. You're on
(14:48):
the Dan Kapla show. Welcome.
Speaker 5 (14:52):
Hey, Dan, I guess we need a national mandate to
buy back guns. You've got to go with Kamalia reason.
Speaker 1 (15:01):
That'll why.
Speaker 5 (15:02):
I hope they talk aboutfs that's their solution, Dan. And
you know what's funny about all these shooters, they're always
on the FBI radar. Oh yeah, we knew about him
like six months ago, a year ago. Maybe if the
FBI and you know, Garland and all these idiots that
are corrupt as heck would actually focus on what they
(15:23):
should be focusing on instead of walking up Grandma for
singing in front of an abortion clinic, or going after
Grandma for walking into the capitol, you know, maybe it'd
all be a little bit safer. It's just our FBI,
our Department of Justice. They're all politicized, they're all corrupt
as hack. If anybody can't see that, you know, I
(15:46):
don't know what to tell you.
Speaker 1 (15:47):
Well, Brian didn't mean to cut you off. And I'm
so glad you mentioned the pro lifers who are being jailed.
I mean, and it is one of the greatest threats
to America right now, because listen, no foreign enemy is
ever going to destroy us. I think the only way
we're destroyed is from within. And one of the ways
you can destroy America from within is you can engage
(16:08):
in all of this lawfare, for example, and you can
distort the justice system, so you have two different justice
systems depending on whether you're a lefty or a conservative.
But this brings us back to Okay, we have this big,
big presentation yesterday, all these people indicted Justice Department claiming
Russian interference in the election. Where are the indictments for Iran?
(16:32):
I mean, the Justice Department was forced to acknowledge weeks
ago that Iran is trying to influence the election, and
it's very clearly trying to influence the election against Donald
Trump because Iran, without question, for obvious reasons, wants Kamala
Harris to be president. And where are all the indictments there? Right?
And by the way, when we come back, I want
to get your take on this. What do you make
(16:54):
of Putin? And let's hope We can start by a
green that Putin is Satan is just evil in its
rawst form on the face of the earth. It's evil
in a suit. So that's the starting point with Putin.
But Putin comes out. We'll play the comments for you
with interpreters. Putin comes out and says that, hey, he
(17:14):
wants Kamala Harris to be president. What do you make
of those comments? Say five five for zero five A
two five five the number TEXTDA and five seven seven
three nine. If you just joined us, thank you. Another
thing we're talking about is can we all just agree
that this common practice right now? And I think the
facts are going to show that it unfolded in Georgia. Also,
(17:36):
this common practice of kids who have been determined to
be dangerous to their classmates or should have been determined
to be dangerous because the information was known, the conscious
deliberate decisions to leave them in schools, to leave them
in mainstream schools, is suicidal. It's immoral, and it has
(18:03):
to end now. And that is the active policy in many,
many more places than you would imagine. Even after a
child goes through the entire process and is formally determined
to be dangerous to their classmates. They are left in
school in many, many, many Colorado schools. It is insanity.
But this is what the left brings you. You're on
(18:25):
the Dan Caplis Show.
Speaker 3 (18:28):
You're listening to the Dan Kaplis Show podcast.
Speaker 1 (18:31):
My brother endorse me, and the whole family endorsed me.
I said, who are all adds? Let me let me
there's something. There's something weird with that guy. He's a
weird guy. JD is not weird.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
He's a solid rock.
Speaker 1 (18:48):
I happen to be a very solid rock. We're not weird.
We're other things, perhaps, but we're not weird. Y is
funny for thirty six. Let's go to the VIP line.
Talk to somebody who's doing the work of angels out there.
Laura Carno is saving lives in a very real, tangible way.
Obviously applies directly to the latest tour, this one in Georgia.
(19:10):
We know others are being planned. Other school shootings are
being planned as we speak. The only question is are
we going to do everything in our power to have
a good guy or Gail there with the gun to
protect these innocent children when the next monster shows up?
Laura says yes, Laura, welcome back to the Dan Kaplis show.
Speaker 8 (19:29):
Hey, thanks Dan for having me and I appreciate it.
Speaker 1 (19:31):
Well, thanks for what you do. And let's start, if
you would, by telling people how to learn more about
Faster and then fill folks in a bit on that sure.
Speaker 8 (19:39):
Things, so folks can go to Faster Colorado dot org
for more information. And what we do is we help
those schools that have chosen to have armed security as
a part of their security protocols, whether that's a full
time armed security team that is dedicated security professionals that
have no other job, or if it's the teacher, the coach,
(20:02):
the janitor, the principal, those kind of folks. So we
provide them with world class firearms and tactical training so
that if God forbid, something happens like what just happened
in Georgia, they're in the best possible position to save lives.
Speaker 1 (20:17):
And I love what you do. And then break it
down in Colorado what you're doing day to day in
the trenches.
Speaker 8 (20:23):
Yeah, and so you know what we're doing in Colorado.
We're still in the middle of armor training programs and
I know it's not summer anymore, but we are training
actually all the way through November just because of the
number of school districts in Colorado that have those armed
security folks. Most of them that we train through Faster
(20:44):
Colorado are those armed school staffers. And again those are
people who they have a job in a school, they
just are are have that extra training to be armed
on campus so that they possibly could be right there
at the point of attack, so that we don't have
to have those four people die that's just happened in Georgia.
Speaker 1 (21:06):
And what does that training look like.
Speaker 8 (21:08):
Yeah, so our instructors, first of all, are all active
duty law enforcement instructors, and we felt it was important
to make sure that the law the training that law
enforcement has in order to stop an active shooter, that
these school staffers and school security teams have access to
that same training. So it is really top of the
(21:29):
line training. We have four different levels, so they progress
through those levels through the years, so that we've got
folks who've been with us all eight years that we've
been training. And I'll tell you what, these are some
very highly skilled people. They take their job very very
seriously to protect their kids at school.
Speaker 1 (21:49):
And how do you determine in the end whether they're
ready and able to go into that environment and succeed
against a shooter.
Speaker 7 (21:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (21:57):
So you know, at FASTER we have a part of
that because they have to pass our class, and part
of passing our class is the post qualification and handgun proficiency,
and so what that is is the same test that
law enforcement passes to get out of the academy, and
they have to take that same qualification test every year.
(22:19):
What's different about FASTER is we actually add two extra
shots to that test and they have to pass at
one hundred percent to pass Faster. The other part of
making sure they're qualified is what happens at the school.
They have to be vetted by their school, by their
school board, by their administration to even be considered to
(22:40):
go to FASTER, and then Faster just provides their annual training.
So school boards now are requiring things like weekly dry
fire and monthly time at the range and quarterly movement
within this school. So it's pretty sophisticated and pretty serious.
It should be.
Speaker 1 (22:58):
This is one of the environments, right that anybody could
find anywhere to operate in, is an active school shooter.
You've got all these innocent students around, whether you can
see them or they're just through these walls that can
often be penetrated by AMMO. And so yeah, I can't
imagine a much tougher situation, but I do know this
(23:20):
that the toughest situation would be those poor students in
the school. The monsters are there with guns seeking to
slaughter them in large numbers, and they have no good
guy or gail with a gun to defend them. That
to me should be completely unacceptable morally.
Speaker 8 (23:40):
Yeah. Absolutely, And thank god that school resource officer was
there and it limited his appearance there stops the shooting,
and it limited the deaths to four. But four people,
Dan is more too many. And you know, I look
at this one of the mouth teachers named Richard aspin
(24:02):
while who was also a coach, and so many of
the school staffers that come through faster are one of
the coaches in those school districts, And gosh, had he
had the chance and agreed to go through rigorous training,
could he have have saved those two children, saved that
other teacher, and gone home to his own family tonight
(24:24):
or last night. We'll never know the answer to that,
but gosh, I wish more people had had the option
to choose Laura.
Speaker 1 (24:31):
I think we do know the answer because we know
the answer from what happened in Georgia. We know the
answer from what you and I have seen happen over
and over again. Start with Georgia. As soon as this
monster saw a gun, a good guy with the gun,
he was done right. And we've seen the same thing.
We saw it stem We've seen it all over. We
saw it with homes that are a theater is so
(24:53):
many times not always as soon as they're faced with
the good guy or gail with the gun, you know,
they either laid down their weapon or they're taken.
Speaker 8 (25:01):
Out, Yeah, or they choose to end it themselves.
Speaker 5 (25:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (25:05):
Great point.
Speaker 8 (25:06):
Yeah, as happened in Arapa Ho.
Speaker 1 (25:08):
Yeah, great point. Great point. And so then, Laura, what
percentage right now of Colorado school districts. I'm not talking
about SROs, which, as you know, the left ran out
of a bunch of schools and then was forced to
back pedal on. But how many have these good guys
or girls placed through faster or trained through faster.
Speaker 8 (25:30):
Yeah, so Faster is working with schools in forty one
of Colorado's one hundred and seventy eight districts. So not
a majority at all, but fairly respectable. Most of the schools,
as you can imagine, the earliest adopters were all rural
schools because they know how long it takes law enforcement
(25:53):
to get there. But that really started to move into
suburban charter schools, where it's a little easier to have
a charter school board pass the policy as opposed to
a large school district that might not be all on board,
but you know, the suburban and charter schools and suburban
school district should be doing this mouth too. If you
have a five minute response time, four minute response time,
(26:16):
it's over. As you know, Dan, it's over. People are
already dead and injured, and we can't we can't continue
to have this happen. And you know, we're seeing in
this Georgia situation, as we've seen in so many of them,
that the school or at least law enforcement. This guy
in Georgia had just switched schools. So I'm not sure
(26:37):
if the school knew or if it was just law enforcement,
but these people are known to law enforcement. And the
question is, as we've asked it at East High School,
when you have a very dangerous person or potentially dangerous person,
how do you reconcile the rights of that person to
go to school versus one, hundreds or thousands of kids
that deserve to be safe.
Speaker 1 (26:58):
Well, that's the biggest no brainer in the history. To you,
the earth right is the safe kids. You choose to
protect the safe kids. But this crazy lefty ideology that says, oh, no,
the kid we've already determined to be dangerous has a
right to be in the school with the safe kids.
That's suicidal except for this, you know, maybe a better
(27:20):
word here, because it's not these politicians, and it's not
these political administrators who are putting their lives on the line.
They're putting the kids' lives on the line. So they
decide to play Russian Roulette with these kids lives so
they can prance around and talk about how woke they
are as administrators. I mean, that's as sick as it gets.
Speaker 8 (27:40):
Yeah, in Denver public schools, when they took school resource
officers out, you can bet that the headquarters with all
of those administrators was protected by armed security.
Speaker 1 (27:49):
Yeah, no, it is. Well, the good news is that
people like you are not just cursing the darkness. You're
lighting a candle. You're going out there you're doing the
hard work to save innocent lives. And again, if you
could give the website and how people can support.
Speaker 8 (28:04):
Your work, sure thing. Yeah, it's a privilege to do
what we do. I'll tell you that. Folks can go
to Faster Colorado dot org. If you are a school
a parent wants some information, contact us there. You can
also donate to the program to help us deliver this
to more schools every year.
Speaker 1 (28:21):
Well, Lauras, you appreciate it. Keep up the great work.
Speaker 8 (28:24):
Thanks Dan, thank you.
Speaker 1 (28:25):
That is our Laura Kernel with Faster. Hey, when we
come back, one of the top five political ads of
all time just appeared. I got to tell you about it.
When we come back, You're gonna love it. Here on
the Dan Kapla Show.
Speaker 3 (28:43):
And now back to the Dan Kaplas Show podcast Without.
Speaker 1 (28:46):
Voters Suppression, The accent is back.
Speaker 9 (28:49):
Stacey Abrams would be the governor of Georgia.
Speaker 4 (28:53):
Andrew Gillham is the governor of Florida.
Speaker 10 (28:56):
First we saw her develop the magical accent when she
was down south.
Speaker 4 (29:01):
I'm gonna get into some business now, okay.
Speaker 1 (29:04):
And now it's back.
Speaker 8 (29:05):
You all help this win.
Speaker 5 (29:06):
In twenty twenty and we don't do it again in.
Speaker 8 (29:09):
Twenty twenty four.
Speaker 1 (29:10):
We gonna beat him in November.
Speaker 9 (29:11):
Well, what are you gonna do about it?
Speaker 1 (29:12):
We all know you don't talk like that.
Speaker 11 (29:14):
You've been vice president for four years.
Speaker 5 (29:16):
He does not look it like he talks it.
Speaker 1 (29:19):
She doesn't talk like this. When we get this done together, Moran.
Speaker 7 (29:23):
I know how to talk to you.
Speaker 11 (29:24):
I mean, come on, lasting it's justified.
Speaker 1 (29:28):
Can I get a witness and they know?
Speaker 11 (29:30):
We all know she's just a big walking bag of artifice.
Speaker 1 (29:36):
Megan Kelly not impressed. That's that's a great set up.
Brian too. I can't say it's the best political ad
I've ever seen, but I would put it top five,
and I'm trying to find it now so we can
at least play this sound for people. But it's fresh.
I've never seen it before. It just popped up on
CNN and good to see the Trump campaign up on CNN, right,
But it got my attention. The video's real well done.
(29:58):
It comes on with the debate you've been waiting for,
or the debate we've all been waiting for, and then
it has a picture of Kamala Harris and it says
Harris V and then another picture of Kamala Harris, Harris v. Harris.
So the debate you've all been waiting for, Harris v. Harris,
(30:18):
and then it launches into Kamala Harris on this policy.
You know, one position opposite position, right on down the line,
beautiful ad and I think it's going to be so
very effective. People just don't like being lied to. She'd
have a much better chance if she just stood up
and said, hey, this is who I am, this is
(30:40):
what I believe. I know that you may not agree
with everything I have to say, but hey, I'm a
lot better than the other guys. She'd have a much
better chance doing that than she is trying to pull
off this con now. People have too much self respect
to buy into that. Eight five five for zero five
eight two five five The number takes da in five seven,
(31:01):
seven three nine, And it is these singles. You know
this from your life, right, No matter what you do,
you know this from your life. The very quickest way
somebody can lose you is to lie to you, to
be dishonest. And we all know deception takes all different
sorts of forms, all different sorts of levels, but it
stinks to you the same, It offends you, It disrespects
you when somebody tries to deceive you. So she is
(31:25):
taking the quicket quickest possible off ramp to defeat in
this race to be this phony and this disingenuous, whether
it's phony accent, phony, political positions, whatever, especially when her
opponent not everybody's cup of tea, but or an opponent
is as authentic as they come. Right. I mean, one
(31:46):
thing you have to say about President Trump is and
it's it's how he won in sixteen. He is just
what you see is what you get eight five five
or zero five eight two five five. Glad you're here.
We've been talking a lot about this insane on the
left when it comes to schools and leaving students who've
been determined to be dangerous to other students after a process,
(32:08):
leaving them in the school. And that is a common policy,
not everywhere in Colorado, but many, many places. So you
better check with your own school district. Texter Dan Washington
Post writes the shooter had been begging for mental health
support for months before this happened. Dan Kamalafied couldn't find
the border wall if she hit it with the campaign bus.
(32:30):
We do have that cut today, don't we Ryan, We
were talking about it at the end of the show yesterday. Yeah,
here it is CNN K File report. We were speculating
because this just happened at the end of the show.
Why do you think CNN did this story tonight?
Speaker 11 (32:42):
K File investigates in a new report you'll see first
out Front. The K File team scoured Kamala Harris's tweets
and statements going all the way back to twenty seventeen,
and what they found was more than fifty instances of
Harris slamming Trump's border wall.
Speaker 1 (32:58):
But now new.
Speaker 11 (33:00):
Parris campaign ads actually showcase that very wall.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
As a border state prosecutor, she took on drug cartels
and jail gang members for smuggling weapons and drugs across
the border.
Speaker 11 (33:15):
And on top of critical tweets, Harris also wrote in
her twenty nineteen book quote, there was a bigger reason
to oppose the border wall.
Speaker 1 (33:23):
A useless wall on.
Speaker 11 (33:24):
The southern border would be nothing more than a symbol,
a monument, standing in opposition to not just everything I value,
but to the fundamental values upon which this country was built.
Speaker 1 (33:32):
How could I vote to.
Speaker 11 (33:33):
Build what would be little more than a monument designed
to send the cold hard message keep out well ca files.
Andrew Kaczinski joins me. Now, so, Andrew, I mean you
and you all have gone through, I mean scoured an
incredible amount of material.
Speaker 1 (33:49):
Tell me more about what you found. Yeah, that's right.
Speaker 10 (33:51):
We found more than fifty of those those tweets criticizing
the border wall before she used that in her ad.
And I want people to take a look at just
a few of what she said here. She called it wasteful, useless,
a waste of taxpayer money, a vanity wall project, wasteful
border wall, a stupid wall, a medieval vanity project, and
an unnecessary wall. And those are really just I mean,
(34:14):
there were more of it was just like ten or fifty, but.
Speaker 1 (34:17):
There was really a lot of.
Speaker 10 (34:18):
This was the common refrained during the campaign. You read
that quote where she said it was against everything that
not only she stood for everything America stood aborder, but
and she brought this up a lot. Take a listen
to just one instance of that. In twenty nineteen.
Speaker 4 (34:34):
It's the president's vanity project.
Speaker 9 (34:36):
His multi billion dollar vanity project called a wall is
nothing more than a distraction from the fact that he
actually has it focused on working people in America.
Speaker 1 (34:48):
So why do you think CNN is doing this piece
helped gets you the grand finale that when we Qulbeck.
But the answer to this question, I think makes a
lot of things clear. Why do you think CNA man
is doing this hip piece on the wall if that's
what it really is. You're on the Dan Kapla Show.
