Speaker 1 (00:00):
You're listening to Later with mo Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
We're giving you some of the best of Later with
mo Kelly to set off your Memorial Day weekend on
k I AM six forty live everywhere.
Speaker 3 (00:24):
On the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 2 (00:27):
And this next story is specifically an intervention to protect
and save the life of Mark Ronner, who has been
known to give a runner or two or four to
people who may cut him off, who may wrong him
in some way on the highways of southern California.
Speaker 4 (00:47):
I see, I see where this is going now, and
do you try to imagine my gratitude, please proceed.
Speaker 3 (00:53):
There was a woman who was arrested.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
I'm going to say this morning, excuse me, yesterday morning
around eight fifteen, no, excuse me, arrested about five pm yesterday.
And the incident happened about eight fifteen a few days ago,
where a twenty four year old woman from San Bernardino
County now in custody accused of attempted murder because of
(01:17):
a road rage incident. What happened is she was traveling
westbound on the ten Freeway east of Riverside Avenue in
the San Bernardino area, a motorist in a gray Nissan Rogue,
now identified as Loma Linda resident Angeline Marie Gable, was
reportedly angered over a lane change when she pulled alongside
(01:38):
the victim, the driver of a black twenty twenty four Honda.
Civic authority say that Gable pulled out a glock handgun
and fired several rounds at the Honda, striking it numerous times.
Speaker 3 (01:49):
Wow, that's just rude over a lane change. Mark. And
here's something else which is very important.
Speaker 2 (01:59):
The Office of Criminal Investigations, Emergency Notification and Tactical Alert Center,
which is in Sacramento, provided real time investigatory assistance and
discovered a FLOCK safety camera had captured an image of
the suspect vehicle, meaning they were able to track this
car as it drove around the city and they later
(02:22):
arrested the would be assailant later that day at around
five pm, just from the flock system camera. So there
are two lessons here, Mark Ronner, Yes, yes, be careful
giving out runners because someone may shoot you.
Speaker 4 (02:37):
And what is a runner again, Ronner, is when you
flipped them the burg. So there's already a name for that.
We don't need to give it my.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
Name, But when you're listening to later with Mo Kelly,
it has the context of you and you driving, So
we're gonna call it a runner for the sake of
this conversation.
Speaker 4 (02:55):
I gave a guy in a big truck a thorough
ronoring over the way A can't who is one of
those things where there's three lanes and I'm in the
middle lane. He could see that there were cars parked
in the right lane coming up, so he tried to
like jag in front of me and cut me off
and get into my lane instead of just slipping in
behind me like a polite, normal human being. Right, he
(03:16):
got the panoramic runner.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
And you may have been justified in doing it, But
is it worth being shot at?
Speaker 3 (03:23):
I'd prefer not to be shot at. You preferrect about that.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
But you may lose control of the situation after you
run or someone and they may try to, you know,
pop a cap in your ass, and I don't want
that to happen.
Speaker 4 (03:34):
No, And I appreciate that. I can feel the love
emanating from you. I never get out of the car.
It's just a polite, little raised finger when polite when
somebody does something egregious, the finger is never as impolite
as the behavior that inspired the finger.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
That that may be true, We can argue that point,
but I would not say that a middle finger is polite.
There are varying degrees of impoliteness, but I wouldn't call
it polite.
Speaker 4 (04:01):
Well, I don't have the means to write them a
letter and hand it to them, like, kind sir, are
you aware that you did something obnoxious and dangerous? Just
then just letting you know, thanks, have a nice day. No,
the finger is shorthand for all of that.
Speaker 2 (04:17):
Can't you just throw up both your hands like say,
what the hell dude?
Speaker 4 (04:21):
Well, that's kind of an earlier version of the finger. Yeah,
like if somebody, like if somebody cuts in front of
you and then slows down, that's so, what the hell dude?
Speaker 2 (04:29):
Okay, going back to the story, I'm quite sure the
woman who cut off the would be gun woman probably
was wrong as far as the rules of the road.
I want to give the attempted murderer because she's tarargs
with attempted murder. I'm going to give for the benefit
of the doubt and say that this civic actually did
(04:49):
cut her off. But is it worth it to risk
your life, is it? Well, you don't want to blame
the victim first and foremost who's in the story. Well,
in what you're trying to do is blame me, and
I'm always the victim. Well no, but I'm saying, Okay,
the person who got cut off in this story responded
(05:09):
with a gun. So is that person a victim in
this story? Well, I don't carry a gun. No, no, no,
but you carry a runner. I'm saying everything. You're a victim, everybody.
But my point is you you characterize yourself as a
victim because of what was done to you.
Speaker 4 (05:24):
You mow tuwala foush. We're all carrying unloaded runners at
all times. It's a weapon of peace. It's a non
lethal weapon.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (05:33):
But see Mark. And the reason I no longer unleash
fiery runners on the road is because of the wisdom,
believe it or not, of my daughter who said to me, Daddy,
you may want to issue that runner.
Speaker 3 (05:48):
Your daughter does not say that that issue that.
Speaker 5 (05:51):
Runner in anger, But you don't know if the person
receiving that runner is crazy, and crazy beats angry every time. Daddy,
keep those runners holstered.
Speaker 3 (06:04):
Yeah, I gotta agree with that.
Speaker 4 (06:05):
I don't think your daughter would appreciate you putting false
words into her mouth like that you're misto. She doesn't
call the middle finger by the name of your coworker.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
I know this, but she has said the difference between
mad and angry, and someone who's angry is not thinking straight,
and they're probably more committed to the escalation than you are.
You probably are intending to runor and move on with
your day. Where that as that crazy person, going back
to the story, obviously had a gun available in the car,
(06:40):
loaded glocking, didn't probably have a safety on it, and
was ready and looking for a reason to use it
on someone.
Speaker 4 (06:50):
Well, there's going to be crazy people any place that
you go. And if somebody does something rude and you
give them a gesture that indicates that they were being rude,
and then they pull out piece that's compounding the rudeness.
You understand that, right, it doesn't matter if you're dead,
though you could be right and dead. I would prefer
to be right and alive. Okay, agree on that. We're
(07:12):
making progress.
Speaker 2 (07:13):
Here, Yeah, So I would rather you air on the
side of caution and not put yourself in a situation
where the choice to continue to live has been taken
away from you.
Speaker 4 (07:24):
Okay, So for me and the people listening in their
cars right now who overwhelmingly agree with me.
Speaker 3 (07:30):
Would you a straphole? What would she? Yes? What would
you tell them to do in place of the runor yeah?
Speaker 5 (07:38):
I would say, if you can keep your hands at
ten and twelve, just you don't have to remove either
hand for a panoramic, for a thrusting, a gyrating, or
an out the window runner.
Speaker 4 (07:53):
What about a crank it into the open position one
like in Guardians of the Galaxy.
Speaker 5 (07:58):
No, because that's not taking as fun and playful on
the road. In a film, it's fine, but you know
in real life that's almost more insightful. That's even more
reason for me to come after you, because now you're
clowning with your honors.
Speaker 4 (08:13):
But don't you think people know when they've done something
terrible and rude and unsafe?
Speaker 2 (08:18):
Yes, I'm quite sure when this person pulled the gun
and started dumping, they thought it was rude and unsafe.
They didn't care, and that's my point. Well, they deserve
an extra honoring for that, all right then, But you
can't with a bullet in your head. I'm trying to
protect you from you, Mark, I want you to live. Mark,
You're my brother. I love you.
Speaker 4 (08:38):
I didn't expect to cry coming into work today. I said,
you're gonna make that happen.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
This is an intervention because there is someone listening right
now who, like you, has no reservations about giving someone
a runor.
Speaker 4 (08:51):
Well, it is important to stand up to bullies and wrongdoers.
You understand that moment.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
Yes, And most bullies don't actually want to fight. That's
why they'll shoot from another car. That's my point. A
person who's going to shoot is not trying to pull
over and go head up with you. You and I
have been in scraps before, all Right, a person's gonna
shoot you, it's not trying to fight you.
Speaker 4 (09:14):
Well, maybe I should get one of them there, tesla's.
Aren't they supposed to be bulletproof? The cyber uh those
swasti cars. You can't trust those things. The panels fall off.
You're not gonna stop a bullet. Okay, there's no bulletproof cars.
There probably are, but you don't drive one of them. No, No,
not currently, nor could you probably be able to afford it. Well,
(09:35):
if you want to get that personal, I don't know
if any of us stare is person, that's the whole point.
We're trying to keep you alive. And actually the serious
point of this conversation is it's not worth escalating the situation.
I know every single day someone makes me angry, and
I'm not going to stare them down. I'm not going
to do some aggressive maneuver and cut them off, and
(09:57):
I'm not going to break check them if I happened
to be in front of them.
Speaker 3 (10:01):
It's not worth it. Will I calm down eventually? Yes?
Speaker 2 (10:05):
Am I angry in the moment, absolutely, But this is
a perfect example of wrong place, wrong time, because I
know I'm angry, and going back to what Tauwallas's daughter
said to him, I don't know if there's dumb and
crazy inn the other car having nothing to do with
my anger.
Speaker 3 (10:22):
Of course.
Speaker 4 (10:23):
I mean I followed the Apocalypse now rule never get
out of the boat, never get out of your car
for a road rage incident. And I just watched a
clip yesterday of a woman, I think it was a
woman getting out of her car and trying to approach
the next car ahead who'd break checked her or something
like that, and a cop stops cold on the other
side of the road and gets out in and stops
her from doing it, and he's like, I got this, Okay,
(10:45):
you get back in your car.
Speaker 3 (10:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
I don't get out of my car anymore. I know,
and I say never should, And I say anymore because
I have been on the other side of that logic.
Speaker 4 (10:56):
You know those electronic reader boards where you can program
to have messages that scroll across the screen. I'd like
to have one of those for my car.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
You can you can get those.
Speaker 4 (11:06):
You can put it on right on top of your car,
and hopefully, like a Marquee, you can program it with
a picture of a middle finger so you can keep
your hands on ten and two tolet hark.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
You cannot take digital runners or you know, analogue runners.
Speaker 4 (11:22):
They're they're the same. No, no science marches on. This
is you need to embrace the future. Mo.
Speaker 3 (11:28):
We tried to walk. Try. Sometimes you just got to
let the family go. I want to live for you,
I want to live for both of them.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
I have some addicts in my family and we couldn't
save them. I feel the same way. I'm getting the
exact same it. It's like, sometimes you just got to
let them go.
Speaker 3 (11:42):
So I'm a middle finger junkie. Is that it pretty much?
Speaker 2 (11:45):
And you know I don't want you to encounter someone
who has a glock on the ten freeway. Oh I
need to fix right now. I look at this right here.
Oh that felt so good. You actually honored me in
the middle of a freaking show.
Speaker 4 (12:02):
Well it was just to make a point, and now
I feel bad about it. I hope we can move
on and you can forgive me.
Speaker 2 (12:06):
You're listening to some of the best of Later with
Mo Kelly on KFI AM six Live Everywhere on the
iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
You're listening to Later with Mo Kelly on demand from
KFI AM sixty.
Speaker 3 (12:20):
I love me some in and out.
Speaker 2 (12:21):
Even though I almost never eat it anymore, I remember
it fondly. I drive past it almost every day, and
I wistfully yearn to have another double double with cheese.
Just had to modify my diet. I don't eat red
meat all that often, if ever. I mean it said
(12:42):
most once every other month. It's mostly white meat and
just more vegetarian. I mean, I'm trying to think the
last time I had red meat. Maybe it was like
on the pizza with no is that pepperoni or peppery.
Speaker 5 (13:02):
It's a different kind of category, kind.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
Of almost never then, but when I do, gotta have some.
In and Out got some good news bad news. The
good news is we'll probably order some in and Out
tonight after talking about it, Stefan, you need to find
an assistant or somebody who can like go to Yeah,
we need we need a food grabber.
Speaker 3 (13:23):
Uh huh.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
The bad news is well, In and Out is raising
some of their prices, at least on their secret menu.
According to a memorandum sent out to In and Out stores,
and it was posted on Reddit.
Speaker 3 (13:38):
In and Out is making some.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
Changes and this change is intended to match the price
of the secret menu favorite, the Flying Dutchman. The off
menu item is simply two meat patties topped with two
slices of cheese, no bun and other toppings included. Yeah, okay,
this is getting better by the sentence. The item is
(14:02):
typically priced around five point fifty here in California. Now,
if you know anything about the Secret menu, you can
order the patties and cheese individually and that will come
out to three dollars and forty cents.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
If you want to go through all that work.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
The cost of adding patties and cheese to regular burgers
such as double doubles and three times threes will not change.
Speaker 3 (14:25):
The memo sent by the chain.
Speaker 2 (14:30):
The franchise's chain claimed that the price increase is due
to confusion surrounding the pricing of the items. They're going
to be raising the prices on individual slices of meat
and cheese. But I've never ordered it that way. I've
never ordered individual slices of cheese or an individual paddy.
(14:51):
I know that's a work around if you want to
save a dollar or two. I get it, I get it.
It just seems like it will work.
Speaker 4 (14:57):
My landlady orders meat like that from drive throughs for
her dog. I don't know any human who orders food
that way.
Speaker 3 (15:05):
Lucky dog. Right about now.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
I will eat eat the stuffing house in and out
right now, No, make no mistake.
Speaker 3 (15:11):
Her dog eats better than I do. Good.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
The only thing I don't like about in and out
on the fries. Seriously, I can leave the fries. You
get the fries animal style. Wait, wait, what's wrong with
the fries? Usually when I get them, they just seem
kind of drab and like they've been sitting out.
Speaker 3 (15:28):
For a while. That's why you get them animal stock
from in and out? Yeah and out.
Speaker 5 (15:34):
Look, come on, let's not front like in and Out
fries are just delicious there, come on, now that they're
not that delicious. But if you get them animal style,
then it's fire. With all the cheese and the onions
and the sauces and all that, then it's good. But
the fries by themselves not all those things away.
Speaker 2 (15:51):
Yeah, you know, it's funny because Neil Sevadri, the Fork reporter,
talks about that we're so used to more processed fries
that since their fries are literally the potatoes, they chop them,
throw them in the greaser and then give them to you.
That's why we're not used to them. But yeah, you
gotta you gotta sauce them up. You gotta sauce them up.
And I don't think that they cooked them with any
Hamburger grease, oh no, but they do, like with McDonald's,
(16:15):
And that's part of the reason why the McDonald's fries
are so good and also got in trouble because they
weren't letting vegan vegans. No, yeah, fries and beef, there's
always some secret ingredient like the tears of children or
something that you don't want to know that. It's got
dark real quick. We got dark, macabre, morbid. I don't
(16:42):
know how I'm gonna come back from that one. Sorry,
I didn't need to derail the whole show. Okay, but
it's true. Let's have an honest conversation.
Speaker 3 (16:49):
Who the hell is going to google? Get some in
and out right now? Anyone? Yeah? We need that. Look,
I look, I showed up with foods.
Speaker 1 (16:56):
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (16:56):
I'm well so did I.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
But always talk about in and out has changed the
trajectory of the show.
Speaker 3 (17:01):
I don't know ifs is the one that left Ritchie leave.
There's gotta be What about Colin? Is he done with
the Dodgers broadcast? Next door?
Speaker 2 (17:09):
He might be done. Actually, he might be just doing
the post stuff. Okay, let's find out. Okay, if we
can get him, and how close is he in and
out to Wallas?
Speaker 3 (17:16):
It's far? Yes, what is all the way over there?
Speaker 5 (17:21):
And yes, where the line is gonna be will be
off by the time he gets back.
Speaker 3 (17:28):
I wonder if we can. I wonder if we could
bribe him somehow as much as he wants. Yeah, it's
like it's like uber eats. You gotta pay a delivery fee.
I don't mind.
Speaker 2 (17:38):
Fair enough, Okay, So we're gonna end this segment a
little bit early so we can talk to Colin, who
runs the board for a M five seven the LA
Sports the Dodger broadcasts. I want to see if we
can trick him into I mean, convince him to go
get us some in and out food. This is the
best of Later with Mo Kelly, kicking off Memorial Day
(17:58):
weekend on k if I AM six.
Speaker 3 (18:00):
We're live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 1 (18:03):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM sixty.
Speaker 2 (18:09):
Yes, I am a firm supporter of corporal punishment. Spankings
are legal here in California, child.
Speaker 3 (18:17):
Abuse is not.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
If you can conflate the two or assume that they
are the same, then you're just being dishonest. I don't
care about your feelings. I'm only talking about the facts. Okay.
If you consider spanking the same as I don't know,
punching a child in the throat or upper cutting them
to their gut, well you're just being dishonest.
Speaker 3 (18:39):
I'm not talking about that.
Speaker 2 (18:40):
But here's what started on threads at mister mo Kelly
on threads Mr m ok e l l Y. And
this is reminiscent of some of the battles that I
got into with people on Twitter that Mark Runner says
he loves so much. Well, got a good dose of
it today. On threads there was a post by this
person named Rihanna now Paul or something, and her post
(19:01):
was unpopular opinion, beating your kids is domestic violence. I
don't know how that's unpopular, but yes, if you're beating
your kids, yes, that would be a form of domestic violence.
Speaker 3 (19:13):
I don't think anyone would really disagree with that.
Speaker 2 (19:15):
But my response had a little bit more nuance in it,
and to the point I said, quote, I am a
okay with spanking spanking and always will be. Anyone who
disagrees is welcome to raise their kids however they want.
Speaker 3 (19:33):
But here's what I from.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
We believe that children are not to be rationalized with
as they are emotionally incapable of fully understanding the world.
They are to be taught consequences and boundaries before the
world does in the form of prison and or the morgue.
And we wonder why kids are out of control today
with no respect for people, police or boundaries.
Speaker 3 (19:53):
Stay out of my house. Close quote.
Speaker 2 (19:57):
Y'all can be mad, y'all can be angry, y'all can
be emotional, you can be irrational. But I was raised
in a house in which you didn't talk back, You
did not have an opinion, you did didn't have a
discussion or a debate with an adult.
Speaker 3 (20:13):
I'll give you an example.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
My mother told me maybe while I was maybe four
years old, it was around four or five, he told me,
do not run in the street.
Speaker 3 (20:20):
Okay. It wasn't about a conversation about.
Speaker 2 (20:23):
The dangers of a car careening around the corner, which
may run you down and you may not be able
to see the car, or the car may not be
able to see you because of your low stature, which
may be below the horizon of the driver's dashboard.
Speaker 3 (20:35):
It wasn't that it will stay your ass out of
the street or you're gonna get a boat whooping.
Speaker 2 (20:41):
And I got maybe five or six or so, because
I remember we had just moved into the house that
my mother lives into this day, and it was light
outside I think it was in the summer. I had
a little time to myself on supervised for some reason.
They probably called my mother a bad mother today. And
I looked left and looked right, and I did the
city cars. My ball had gone in the street. Why
(21:02):
would I not chase after my ball. I didn't know
my mother was watching me from the window. And then
I ran out into the street, got my ball, got back,
everything was fine. No cars came around the corner. My
mother tore out the house and tore my ass up.
Speaker 3 (21:18):
Why because I disobeyed her.
Speaker 2 (21:19):
It wasn't about whether I could make a case and
debate about whether I was mature.
Speaker 3 (21:25):
Enough to go out into the street.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
She didn't have time to try to explain to me
how I put myself in danger and could have gotten
myself killed because a car often came around that corner
because it was a blind corner, way too fast and
wouldn't have been able to stop if I happened to
be out there.
Speaker 3 (21:42):
She gave me an order, She gave me a directive.
It was not a topic for discussion.
Speaker 2 (21:47):
And since I disobeyed that order, she whooped my ass.
Why because she knew as a young child, I could
better understand wanting to avoid the whooping as opposed to
understanding the fullness of the danger of a car coming
around the corner, and my parents, both of them understood
(22:10):
it was okay for me to fear them, a healthy fear,
healthy fear because my healthy fear of them was carried
with me when I went to school. It carried with me,
so I didn't there was a limit to the things
I would do out there because I couldn't fundamentally understand
what it would mean to get arrested or go to juvie,
(22:31):
or do something that was so stupid that it might
get me killed. And I'll give you something else. And
there's a cultural difference here I want to drill down on.
It's culturally different from many African American families and many
non black families, especially in the nineteen seventies. I was
growing up with a parent, my father, who grew up
(22:52):
in segregated Virginia. My mother less so in integrated Detroit.
But my father was very conscious of making sure I
didn't put myself in a situation where I would have
been treated differently and I would have lost control of
my own autonomy. I had a gun pull on me
by a police officer when I was thirteen years old.
(23:14):
I don't know how many people listening can say the same.
And they were trying to protect me from a world
which may have seen me and reacted to me differently.
The foolishness that you see going on now. I definitely
could not have participated in back then. Why because I
probably would have been shot. And my parents didn't have
(23:34):
time or the inclination to explain all the possible scenarios
of how I could have done something and then put
in a situation where I would have lost my freedom
or lost my life, and it was easier for them
to say, if you do this on a whoop your ass,
and many times they did. And because they did, they
protected me from prison and they protected me from the more.
(23:55):
And if they didn't, I promise you, I would have
been one of them out there smashing and grabbing. I'mis you.
I would have been one of them out there in
a street takeover. I would have been doing all the
things that you supposedly can't stand and complain about.
Speaker 3 (24:08):
On social media.
Speaker 2 (24:09):
You're probably some of the same people who are reposting
and resharing that little girl who was acting up and
losing her damn mind in a grocery store.
Speaker 3 (24:18):
You know why that never happened?
Speaker 2 (24:19):
With me because I knew my parents would beat my
ass if I did, and they did for less, not
because they were abusing me, but they were protecting me
because when the police went around, I knew that my
parents were watching or my neighbors were watching, and if
I acted up in front of my neighbors, my neighbors
would tell my parents and they would still have consequences
(24:42):
waiting for me. The reason I'm talking about this I
am so tired of this permissive society. And I talked
in the first segment about how I would say as
far as child rearing goes, I'm probably the most conservative
person on this station, Barne, because I have these conversations
with the other hosts and I know where they stand
on certain things.
Speaker 3 (25:00):
Certain things just not gonna fly with me. Ever.
Speaker 2 (25:02):
Ever, the reason I wear an undershirt to this day
and wear a belt is because my parents drilled it
into me. Right now, I'm wearing a white undershirt and
I'm wearing a belt because there's expectations as far as
how I was going to carry myself outside the house
so I would not be mistaken for a hoodlum, for
a thug, or someone who might be engaging in criminal behavior.
(25:22):
These are all the things talking about the cultural differences
that African Americans often have to worry about or also
have to instill in kids that other parents do not.
It's a different ball game. So if you don't spank
your kids, God bless you. I hope they turn out
to be wonderful. I hope they're great. I hope they're
very respectful. I hope they're quiet in class. I hope
(25:43):
they don't smash it and grab. I hope they don't
rob anyone. I hope they don't get involved in a
knockout game. But that doesn't work for all of them.
And I go to grocery stores and I see these
kids cussing out their parents. Don't tell me. I'm the
only one who sees this. See these kids yelling at
their parents, calling them all names of the book. Come
(26:04):
here to me, No, at you, no, come here, No,
I don't want to. The first I would have gotten
out of my mouth. My mother would have slapped the
taste out of my mouth. Oh that's child abuse. But
you're the same folks complaining about what you don't like
what you see, and you.
Speaker 3 (26:25):
Say we need to have tougher laws.
Speaker 2 (26:27):
No, we need to have more discipline, because you can't
instill discipline by the time they get to be fourteen
or fifteen.
Speaker 3 (26:34):
He has to be four or five.
Speaker 2 (26:35):
I can tell you about some of the butt whapons
I got fifty years ago, which stay with me today
and tell me and remind me why I'm not supposed
to do certain things. Why are my ass is not
supposed to be in certain places after certain hours, because
not only did it protect me as a child.
Speaker 3 (26:51):
That protect me as a grown ass man. Discipline. We
don't want to talk about discipline because spanking, this this
violentst town abuse.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
I remember that the next time you complain about someone
breaking in your house. Today, we're honoring our nation's heroes
on Memorial Day with some of the best of Later
with Mo Kelly on KFI AM six forty Live everywhere
on the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 1 (27:19):
You're listening to Later with Mo Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 3 (27:25):
I'm not done. I got more to say, I got
more to say about your bad ass kids.
Speaker 2 (27:28):
I'm tired of them, tired of hearing them, I'm tired
of looking at them, I'm tired of them talking back
to you.
Speaker 3 (27:34):
You don't understand. I mean, this is not an act.
This is this is sincere.
Speaker 2 (27:38):
I see these kids talking back, I see these kids
calling their parents by their first name.
Speaker 3 (27:47):
It it's really strange. It's it's really strange.
Speaker 2 (27:49):
And whenever my blended stes, whenever they would go out,
I told them there's a certain way you can and
there a certain way you cannot dress. There's a certain
way you can address adults. There's a certain way you
cannot address adults. When you come up here, if you're
gonna be representing me, you're gonna be in a collar shirt.
You're not come up here in a T shirt in shorts.
Why Because you're gonna present yourself a certain way. And
when you get to be an adult, then you can
(28:11):
do whatever you want. But until that time, you can
do it my way. That's the way it is. That's
the way I was raised. You won't find me, by
and large in a T shirt, not at work, not
at work, because that's the way I carry myself into
something that was passed down to me and it will
always stay with me. I'm a strict adherent to discipline.
(28:32):
Now I can't beat the kids, can't spec the kids
in martial arts but I can make them do twenty pushups,
I can make them do duck walks, I can make
them do bear crawls all around the mat. There has
to be some sort of consequences.
Speaker 3 (28:46):
That we have for kids.
Speaker 2 (28:48):
I don't believe in reasoning with children because they're not
responsible for anything. They're not emotionally developed enough to make
any life decisions. I give you a perfect example. Here
we go, Twalla, mister liberal mo Kelly. I am firmly
against kids, whether they are trans or not, changing their
(29:11):
name or their pronouns while they are minors. They can't
legally change their name until they're eighteen. So if you're
and I'm not trying to be disrespectful or funny, but
if you're twelve or thirteen and you want to tage
your name from Tom to Tina, I got a problem
with that, and I don't support that because you're not older,
(29:34):
you're not even past puberty, and you want to make
some life decision, and me, as the adult, I'm supposed
to respond to that. It's like being in love with someone.
You're in love with someone this week, it may be
someone next week. Now you may go through the change,
and you may adhere to it for the rest of
your life. God bless you, and I mean that sincerely,
God bless you. But as a child, there's certain decisions
(29:57):
you just don't get to make. You don't w because
you're not responsible for anything that you do. And I
am not subject to the whims of a child. And Twalie,
you said it, and I gotta give you credit for
we live in a society where we have everyone's getting.
Speaker 3 (30:13):
A damp participation trophy.
Speaker 2 (30:16):
No one wants to see a child cry, ever, because
you know it's unfair. It's unfair at fair fairs for
five year olds.
Speaker 5 (30:27):
I think you said, yeah, fairies for five year olds,
fairs for children. And I cannot stand the leniency upon
which a lot of parents ascribe to their children. Parents
ascribing almost adulthood to the children is quite possibly one
of my most pet of peas. It is so annoying
(30:51):
when I see it happen, when I see the disrespect.
And it's interesting because my mother took my children were
their two in the event. Actually they went to a
couple of different places this weekend, and when she came back,
she remarked, oh, my goodness, the kids are so good.
They are so sweet. They're so kind, they're just quiet,
they're just so polite, just kind. I know this is
(31:13):
going and and you know, I said, well, thank you
very much. And it's because I know for a fact
that my children have seen both me and their mother
go left in public, not when we got home, not
later in that moment, in public, be public in public.
(31:37):
And they have seen how quickly we can go from
zero to sixty while they were younger, so that now
they know better, they know better and not out of fear.
We have taught a healthy, healthy sense of respect by
way of putting pause on them.
Speaker 3 (31:58):
You can't do abuse. You should never have to use
violence to raise your children. You're a bad parent. You're
a bad parent. I've called a child protected services on you,
and you know it.
Speaker 5 (32:09):
And you and your child can get a trophy for
losing the losers. You are losers, and that is a
loser mentality. There's something else. You can't be a friend
to a child. You can't raise a child and be
their best friend. I see more and more like, oh,
my my daughter's my best friend.
Speaker 3 (32:24):
She shouldn't be.
Speaker 2 (32:25):
You can't discipline someone and be their buddy. There is
a time when you both become adults. You can become friends,
but you're gonna have to be the parent and steer
them away from wrong so they don't end up in
jail or pregnant, or some life decision that only adults
should make and suffering from those decisions because they were
(32:46):
ill prepared to deal with the consequences. I talked to
all three of my blended boys about sex, hopefully before
they lost their virginity, okay, and I was very in
depth about what it means to go into that doctor's
and have that knitting pin put up your member, because
I wanted them to know the consequences of making adult decisions.
(33:10):
I couldn't be their friend, I couldn't be their buddy.
My job was their protector to make sure they didn't
end up dead or in jail, or some sort of
combination of both. And I wish more people saw the
world as I do. And I know you don't. I
know you're mad. No, you're just a bad parent. You
should go to jail. The whole point is I'm trying
(33:30):
to keep some people from going to jail and breaking
into your house. We can't keep going in this direction
where kids get to decide whatever they want.
Speaker 3 (33:41):
They get to tell us what they want.
Speaker 2 (33:43):
They get to decide if they're going to go to school,
they get to decide if they're going to go to work,
They get to decide if they're going to respect you
on a given day.
Speaker 3 (33:52):
And you allow it.
Speaker 2 (33:54):
And I think there is a correlation, a causal relationship
with how we've been derelict and neglecting how our responsibility.
We've abrogated our responsibility as far as putting foot in
ass and making sure that these kids at ages five,
six and seven no consequences so the world or some
other child doesn't have to teach them when they're fourteen, fifteen, sixteen.
(34:17):
And I want you to remember this the next time
you see a smash and grab or a street takeover,
or someone mouthing off to you, maybe it's your child
or mouthing off to some other parents.
Speaker 3 (34:27):
There is a connection. I knew if I mouthed off
to my parents.
Speaker 2 (34:31):
There were consequences and the police couldn't save me from them.
