Speaker 1 (00:22):
It's Friday, Thank goodness. I didn't know if we were
gonna make it. I really didn't know if we're going
to make it all the way to Friday. Kay, If
I am six forty, it's later with mo Kelly. We're
live everywhere in the iHeartRadio app and YouTube and Facebook
at mister Mokelly. And we've been waiting for the better
part of I don't know, two weeks at this point,
I would say two weeks, yeah, two weeks, waiting for
(00:43):
the Dodgers to make a statement. Some were waiting for
the organization to make a stand, to send a message
to show support specifically for the Latino community estimated forty
of Dodger fans forty. I've been a Dodgers fan my
whole life, as long as I can remember, and I
(01:05):
was perplexed that there wasn't some sort of definitive statement
of support for the community or some definitive stance on
this moment, and up until early part of today, we
had neither. Then this came down the wire and I
thought I read it wrong. I thought it was like
(01:30):
ten million dollars. Nope, one tenth of that. The Dodgers
have pledged one million dollars to support immigrant communities and
not a lot of specifics.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Quote.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
In partnership with the City of Los Angeles, the Los
Angeles Dodgers have committed one million dollars toward direct financial
assistance for families of immigrants impacted by recent events in
the region. Close quote can you get more vague? Can
you avoid saying ice? Can you do more? I mean,
(02:05):
it's almost like they don't even want to put it
near a refrigerator, So you don't want to like think
about ice. You don't want to even mislead anyone to
thinking that the Dodgers care about ice.
Speaker 3 (02:16):
They have no cups of any drink of anything on
any stadium there or posts that they're done.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
After all these weeks. Yes, I didn't mean to step
on your ear, that's oka. After all these weeks.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
This was the worst best idea that someone in the
marketing department came up with. And I have a sneaking
suspicion that it probably was like five hundred thousand.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
And then he said, no, no, no, no, no, no, it's gotta
be at least a million to just make them mad. Yeah,
damn right, you gotta make them mad.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
You gotta make them mad with a million because the Dodgers,
and thank you twelve for pointing this out to me
before the show. The Dodgers were sold in twenty twelve
for price of two point one five billion dollars. And
yes there's a Lakers tie in, because the group which
purchased the Dodgers in twenty twelve, Mark Walter googen Kan
(03:10):
Group is the same group which just bought.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
The Lakers for ten billion.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
Now I'm not really good at math, but if you
could afford the Dodgers in twenty twelve two point one
five billion, and you could afford some sort of magical
deal with the Lakers for ten billion in a twelve
thirteen year period, I'm guessing the petty cash fund.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
Has more than a million dollars in it has to.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
I'm guessing the Crisis PR Department has money set aside
for moments just like these. And after two plus weeks,
a million dollars to no one in particular was the
idea that the brain Trust came up with. I don't
(04:02):
know how the million dollars is going to be douled out.
I don't know in what way or to whom it's
going to be given. I have no specifics. I just
know and I'm not even Latino. I got Spanish people,
family members, but I'm not Latino. I was mad, I
was telling bad. I saw that I was heated. I
(04:24):
looked at that and I said, know the blank, you didn't.
This was your best foot forward. That's not even like
a weekly operating cost. Hell, that made be what it
costs to open up the park on an average game night.
I would have rather me, personally, this is just me.
I'm not speaking for twelve. I'm not speaking for the
Latino community. I personally would have rather a strongly worded
(04:46):
letter that was very clear in its stance than a
million dollars, which says to me, we don't think anything
of you Latino community or your support. I looked at
as a cheap ass bribe, and it wasn't even one
which someone should take any pride in. It wasn't like, like
(05:10):
the only type of comparison I can make is the
late Kobe Bryant. We had that issue. Chieves On his
wife had the sexual assault case. He bought his wife
after the fact, a four million dollar ring. It's almost
like it feels like the Dodgers know, yeah, we know
we're wrong, but we're going to give you this in return.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
That's not even four million, though I know, I know.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
It's almost like they're treating the Latino community like a
cheap ass date. After all the time that the community,
to continue the metaphor, has dated and been faithful to
the Dodgers organization the one time, the one time, in effect,
they're asking, hey, can you show us some respect? Hey
(05:58):
can you tell the world how much you care about us? Hey,
can you demonstrate to everyone that we're your boo?
Speaker 2 (06:05):
Okay? This one time? And they couldn't do it. They
couldn't do it.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
In fact, they gave him like a little candy ring
out of the vending machine and said, here you go.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
I get it.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
The Dodgers' organization does not want to in any way
offend the Trump administration because this is what it comes
down to.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
It goes back to visiting the White House.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
It goes back to making no public statement about anything
that they may disagree with previously or presently with the
Trump administration. This is all about business. And today they
cut a check to nobody in particular. No excuse me,
they announced a check to nobody in particular. And that
(06:49):
is supposed to make anyone feel better, feel more comfortable,
or confident that the Dodgers believe in the Latino community,
or has the Latino community these back.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
I was offended.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
I cannot speak for anyone else, but I was actively
and actually mad when I saw that that was supposedly
the best foot forward of an organization that I loved dearly.
After all these days and I assume all these meetings
strategizing PR crisis meetings, this was the best foot forward.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
Question mark.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
You know what's interesting too when you think about it,
this growing Latino community coalition of activists, organizers, and individuals
who are looking to potentially boycott Los Doyers and really
make a stance because they felt disrespected because the Dodgers
(07:48):
would not publicly speak out against what was happening to
their faithful fans. That's what they were asking for. They
were asking for, Hey, Dodgers, our beloved team were showing
up to ice protest wearing Dodger hats. Yep, we want
you to let the world know you've got our back.
Not once did I hear anyone from any of those
(08:09):
organizations say, Dodgers, we need your financial support. No one
has asked for that that wasn't even a question, that
wasn't even on the table. They said, show us some love.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
Let me go back to the statement and look how carefully,
intentionally and purposefully this statement is written to not offend
the federal government and in no way cast aspersion on
the Trump administration and not in any way mentioned reality.
(08:41):
We don't know if this is after a hurricane, an earthquake.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
You know, a school fight.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
We don't know what is in reference to listen, it says, quote,
what's happening in Los Angeles has reverberated among thousands upon
thousands of people.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
What the hell does that mean?
Speaker 1 (09:00):
And we have heard the calls for us to take
a leading role on behalf of those affected.
Speaker 2 (09:06):
What the hell are you talking about? You can't even
say the word, you can't even look.
Speaker 4 (09:13):
Call a thing a thing? Ice raids? I mean, are
they talking about the wildfires? I don't know right now,
I don't know. They probably gave more for the wildfires,
and I'm being serious, Yeah, yeah, nobody asked for your money.
Speaker 2 (09:28):
They ask for your support. We'll have more on this
in just a moment.
Speaker 5 (09:32):
You're listening to later with Mo Kelly on Demand from
KFI Am six forty.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
KIM six forty is later with Mo Kelly.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
We're live on YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, the iHeartRadio app, Live
on your Mama's TV, Live on your sister's radio. We're
live on Mark's I don't know iPod, We're live everywhere.
For the break, we were talking about the Dodgers. Let
me be serious again. Let me put on my serious face.
I was angry at the fact that the Dodgers put
(10:04):
forth a million dollar bribe, my word, my word, a
million dollar bribe to get the Latino community and coalition
off the organization's back. I thought it was a paltry trinket,
lacking in affection. That was the best foot forward after
all this time. They delayed this announcement today an extra
(10:26):
day for what, Because you didn't give us a lot
of information. You didn't tell us where a million dollars
was going specifically, or to whom you still could have
announced it yesterday. Don't tell me you were, like Twalla
was saying, I guess they are scrounging around in the
couch trying to find pennies and nickels, you know, spare change,
lost change that fell out of our pockets when we're
(10:48):
sitting on the couch because not that a million dollars
is a small amount of money, but it's a small
amount of money for franchise, which is value at.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
Two point one five billion dollars. We're talking about proportionality here.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
A million dollars, I could see them giving to hurricane relief,
earthquake relief, fire relief, fire relief. You know, that's like
a standard boiler played amount. But this is about the
past forty plus years, dating back to Fernando Mania. I'm
sure that the Latino community has spent more than a
(11:27):
million dollars on Dodger tickets, Dodgers jerseys, Dodgers paraphernalia just
this season, just this season. I don't have the data
to back it up, but I know there We're some
sixty seventy games into the season, and since forty percent
of the fan base Latino, I'm quite sure I'm right
(11:49):
on that one. But if you've been paying attention or
listening to the show, there have been individuals who's spoken out.
There's keyk Hernandez who's from Puerto Rico. He spoke out
and he talked about his solidarity with Southern California and
the fans the Latino community. If you know Dodger Baseball,
I should not have to tell you about the resume
(12:10):
of Haimi Harien and his broadcast legacy with the Dodgers organization.
This is what he said on his Instagram. When you
have individuals of great respect within the organization beating the
organization to speak out, that's a bad look.
Speaker 2 (12:27):
This is what Jimi Henrien had to say. Quote.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
As an immigrant who came to this country seventy years ago,
I know firsthand the hope, courage, and determination it takes
to build a new life in a new land. I
have always believed that immigration is not just part of
the American story, it is the American story. Los Angeles
is my home, this city is my family, and it
(12:50):
breaks my heart to see the growing division in our
community and across the country. We all deserve to be
treated with dignity, respected, humanity clothes.
Speaker 2 (12:59):
Quote.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
I would have much rather this be the statement coming
from the Dodgers. You at least acknowledge the emotional toll
that this moment has taken on specifically the Latino community,
but not only the Latino community, Because if you are
an Angelino like me, then you are emotionally invested in
everything that happens to the community and to the city.
(13:24):
You can't say that this only impacts Latinos.
Speaker 2 (13:28):
Now.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
It made from an an illegal immigration sense, from an
ice raid sense. But hopefully, if you're living in Los Angeles,
this is someone you know, This is someone that you
work with.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
It may even be a family member.
Speaker 1 (13:44):
It may be a teacher, it may be a fellow classmate,
it could be all of those. So just because it
may not impact you personally directly, doesn't mean that it
does not impact you. I know it impacts me. It's
like I said last segment when I saw the one
million dollar donation. You know, it's like, can't you do
(14:05):
a little bit better? If you're just going to bribe
the community? Is that your best offer? That was your
last best offer? Or did you start at two million
and you said, well, why don't we just readoun to
a million?
Speaker 2 (14:15):
A million is enough?
Speaker 1 (14:16):
Or did you start a five hundred thousand and say, oh,
that's not enough, why don't we bump it up to
a million?
Speaker 3 (14:21):
Look, Shohei Ohtani himself donated a million dollars to survivors
of the recent earthquake in Japan. By himself out of
his own pocket, out of his own pocket, okay, and
five hundred thousand for wildfire relief here in California. Not
long ago, the Dodgers organization, along with others, pledged the
(14:44):
combined donation of over eight million to support victims of
those fighting wildfires. Get me Mad Again to the Los
Angeles Dodger Foundation has also made significant in kind donations,
providing more than two point two million donations alone to families.
A response to just COVID nineteen, I'm just like, I
(15:08):
don't understand this million.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
Here's the thing.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
When you have a record regarding social issues, such as
the Dodgers' organization does, then people are going to refer
to that. When there are social issues which are relevant
to the Dodgers organization, say what you want, this is
still relevant to the Dodgers organization. If you have a
(15:31):
history of making donations for philanthropic or for for aid
after a tragedy or a disaster, then people are going
to refer back to that, and for this to pale
in comparison to anything and everything the organization has done
(15:52):
over the past forty plus years. Yeah, that offends me
as a Dodgers fan. It says to me. It's like,
maybe maybe my fandom is misplaced. Maybe I believe the
organization to be something that is not Actually maybe the
Dodgers are not who I thought they were. Maybe, and
(16:14):
I don't know. It's almost like when someone makes an
apology and you know you're wrong, you know you're wrong,
and maybe you can't get the words like I'm sorry
out of your mouth or I fed up.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
You don't actually want to say those words.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
But if you can't get that sincerity across and be
able to convey how sincerely sorry, you are, regardless of
the words, and it's going to have to be by
deed in action. If you can't get it right the
first time, you'll never get it right. And at this point,
I'm not sure the organization will be able to get
(16:50):
it right. They had taken all this extra time to
get together a statement and some sort of peace offering
again my phrase peace offering form of this bribe, my wording,
and this is what they came up with. I don't
know if they've made it any better. In fact, I'm
pretty sure they probably made it worse.
Speaker 5 (17:12):
You're listening to Later with Mo Kelly on Demand from
KFI Am six forty.

a minute, are they.
Speaker 6 (21:30):
Just measuring it by fights among sister wives?
Speaker 1 (21:32):
Yeah? I'm reading it correctly. I am twell. I don't
want to give away. Who's gonna tell you?
Speaker 2 (21:38):
This sounds like it would be a list of the safe,
like the most boring, you would think, But I'm reading
this correctly. Twale, look at it.
Speaker 3 (21:44):
I know, but I got to look this up on
I think we're missing like a whole list of bad
colleges here.
Speaker 2 (21:51):

look this up. Man, keep going miss number number five.
Speaker 1 (22:02):
If cut New York, that's where Cornell is, Okay, And
when I get closer to the top, you'll see like,
oh yeah.
Speaker 2 (22:10):
I'm reading it in the right direction.
Speaker 1 (22:12):
Number four of the most dangerous college towns, according to
some damass law firm Washsatch Defense Lawyers dot com.
Speaker 2 (22:22):
That's pushed published in Men's Journal. Hey man, this is
the whole story.

Yeah, new Haven, Connecticut?
Speaker 2 (22:32):

Speaker 2 (23:10):
Yeah, this is Arizona State.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
No, I'm just closer to the border I'm saying it's
that and also New Mexico the state, but I don't
think any of the universities would be as high. Look,
I'm just saying that's why. That's what I'm thinking. First, blush, is.
Speaker 6 (23:25):
This related to cops getting more domestic violence calls?
Speaker 2 (23:27):
When it's hot? It just says that, it just says crime. Okay,
it's one hundred and thirty six person out of that.

I mean okay, oh yeah, oh yeah yeah.
Speaker 2 (23:53):
Is it tough there?
Speaker 1 (23:56):
Yeah, well it's not that it's tough, but it's out
of you know what. The one, the one I thought
that would be on the list and it's not is
Liberty City where the University of Miami is.
Speaker 6 (24:07):
That was notorious. That what I'm saying, Like, these places
are in the middle of nowhere, Alabama. A lot of
banjo related this all, That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
Like, that's done. Dun dun, dun, dun, dun.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
All right, coming in number one of the most dangerous
college towns according to Wasach Defense Lawyers dot com as
published in Men's Journal any any guesses, So whatever you
were going to guess, go in the other direction and
think about some other college town, anyone, anyone North Carolina.
I mean, well that's a state, but you know that's
(24:41):
just a monastery place. Because we know if Utah is dangerous,
I mean, there's no hope for anyone.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
Yeah, all right, coming to number.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
One, Gangesville, Florida.
Speaker 2 (25:07):
That's the first one that's made sense so far. Gangsville, Florida.
Speaker 1 (25:11):
Yeah, and it's number one even still though.
Speaker 3 (25:14):
Okay, so no USC, is it what you're telling me
right now? USC doesn't even merit or Texas.
Speaker 1 (25:22):
You would you would think that USC since it's like
right in the middle of South Central I mean.
Speaker 3 (25:27):
For all for all the s whole commentary we hear
about California.
Speaker 2 (25:31):
No, we're not even on this list.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
No, we're for all the dead bodies that we do
know about connected to USC in South Central.
Speaker 2 (25:38):
Let's be honest. Okay.
Speaker 3 (25:39):
I just look, I call absolute BS a men's journal,
and that's a now a journal that cannot be trusted.
Speaker 2 (25:47):
This Utah stuff, I don't know.
Speaker 6 (25:49):
Look, got Utah is known for, like, hey, nice temple
garments punk.
Speaker 1 (25:54):
It's a it's according to Men's Journal, Okay, Iowa, Utah
and Iowa don't go there.
Speaker 3 (26:00):
Ever, this is a group of men who got together
wrote an article that were bullied in some down.
Speaker 2 (26:05):
Clearly this is there's no way this. You know, they
gave me a wedgye in that town. Put them on
the list. Oh by the way, though, what's the name
of the documentary, mark.
Speaker 6 (26:18):
Uh I forget the title of it, The Ohio State
something or other.
Speaker 1 (26:21):
Let me say, I was watching this documentary last night
talking about the wrestling Surviving Ohio State. Okay, yeah, talking
about the wrestling controversy of the wrestlers who were being
sexually assaulted by the team doctor back in the late
nineteen eighties, actually the same time I was in college,
and it is fantastic. It is horrible what the players
(26:44):
are going through. But it also tells you what can
go on at these big programs in these college towns,
how people get away with stuff. If I were to
connect the stories, yeah, it was. If you see Surviving
Ohio State is said Netflix are Prime, it's HBO Max neither, okay,
HBO Max. It's really good. Haven't even finished yet. But
(27:07):
it's really really good.
Speaker 6 (27:08):
It's upsetting, it's disturbing, and it's infuriating. I had all
sorts of emotions getting through it, and I have about
twenty minutes left to go. I couldn't get through it
all in one sitting. It really bothered me.
Speaker 1 (27:19):
Just gonna let you know, going to the Momigos in
Motown the chat. There are a wide variety of feelings
regarding the Dodger conversation. Charger fifty five says Dodgers should
just stay out of this, not their problem. Damned if
they do, damned if they don't. I don't think you
can stay out of it. You can't say that you
love the Latino community and do Mexican American heritage Knight
(27:42):
and then act like none of this is going on.
And the Dodger's history of Jackie Robinson, of Fernando Valezuela.
You know you've gone too far down that road to say, well, well,
not my problem. So that's where I would disagree with you.
Charge of fifty five Carl Severson says, not there, sir,
not their monkeys.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
Actually it is their circus. It really is.
Speaker 1 (28:04):
When federal agents show up your doorstep and want to
get into your pocket parking lot so they can haul
faans away. That is your circus. You know it's there.
Let me see who else. We have some listeners in
Great Falls, Montana. Welcome to Gary Lucero listening in and
watching the first time on YouTube and Great Falls, Montana.
(28:28):
But the conversation is all around the place as far
as the Dodgers acknowledging the history of the franchise. But
I would say, if I were to take an informal poll,
most of the chat is saying the Dodgers should stay
out of this.
Speaker 2 (28:42):
I think that's the worst thing in the world. Is
not going to go away.
Speaker 1 (28:46):
It hasn't, and I don't think they've handled it well
since they've made this somewhat of a statement or peace
offering to the Latino community. You know, a half assed
apology is worse than no apology.
Speaker 2 (28:59):
Not much I do know. I am slightly curious, and
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (29:08):
Brother Charger of fifty nine or who is at Carl whoever.
I don't really know these individuals. But when I hear,
because I've heard this a lot from people who have
responded to just our conversation about the Dodgers to stay
out of it, and each and every person just from
a just a casual glance not Latino. Yes, they're not
(29:33):
like they're not from the community. So it's like, well,
it's almost like, well, this doesn't affect you, so your
lack of care is understandable.
Speaker 1 (29:42):
We got to go to a break, but I will
say this, a prominent television personality hit me, texting me
and who is of Latita descent, and she was very
clear that we were expressing the sentiment of not only her,
but many of those in the Latino community.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
So I'm comfortable with it.
Speaker 5 (30:02):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
kfi AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (30:08):
KFIM six forty is Later with mo Kelly Live everywhere
on YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, the iHeartRadio app. And this is
actually a follow up story to something we discussed earlier
in the week.
Speaker 2 (30:20):
Riverside or River Tuckys I like to call.
Speaker 1 (30:23):
They're going to crack down on illegal fireworks just like
the City of Carson. The city says it will begin
deploying small unmanned aerial systems you know, drones to help police, firefighters,
and code enforcement teams detect and document illegal fireworks.
Speaker 2 (30:40):
Violations from the air.
Speaker 1 (30:43):
Do you know a lot of the people who I
know who use illegal fireworks, they do it in their
backyard out of view of the police.
Speaker 2 (30:52):
And this just says this strait, I'm just going to
look at your backyard.
Speaker 1 (30:57):
You don't need the drones. If they're doing it out
in front of the house, you just see them, so
they're looking in your backyard. I'm uncomfortable with that. I'm
really uncomfortable with that. I don't know where the law
begins or ends, but I do know. If I'm just
walking around my backyard but ass naked, which I've been
(31:21):
known to do on occasion, that's my business.
Speaker 2 (31:25):
Why are you new justiced in your place? I didn't
know this, no, but I was.
Speaker 1 (31:28):
Saying, if I want to and I'm scratching my ass
or whatever, that's my business. It just because you're I
think a reasonable assumption. We always talk about the reasonable
expectation of privacy. For me, the reasonable expectation of privacy
is when I'm on my property that there isn't someone
in the tree per se looking down on me. That's
(31:51):
my reasonable expectation of privacy because you can't see in
my backyard to while you've been in my house. So
the walls are I want to say, maybe seven eight
feet high. Okay, you have to be looking down in
my backyard to see anything I'm doing in my backyard.
I'm not comfortable with the idea because I live it.
Let's be honest, I live in a neighborhood where there's
(32:12):
a lot of illegal fireworks activity. So if they're going
to implement this in the city of Los Angeles and
they start flying drones in my neighborhood, maybe looking for
my neighbor to the right or to the left, or
across the street, that means you're looking in my backyard
as well. That makes me very uncomfortable. As we always
talk about, you know, I don't want the government in
(32:32):
my house. That's little in government in your house.
Speaker 3 (32:35):
The slippery slope that you're describing is first it's looking
in neighborhoods to find fireworks. Then it's today, have to
make this neighborhood safer. Let's use them to start tracking
down street takeovers. And then as you know what, to
make your neighborhood even safer, we're gonna fly these drones
around so we can see if there's anyone just prowling
(32:56):
around potentially breaking into your house next to you know,
it's just droned in the sky above our neighborhoods.
Speaker 1 (33:01):
Not only that, I think you missed the most obvious
one looking for illegal immigrants.
Speaker 2 (33:07):
Oh who's in your house? Yeah? Okay.
Speaker 1 (33:11):
I always think about how something can really go wrong,
and this is Riverside Mayor Patricia Locke Dawson, who had
to say we saw firsthand last summer how fireworks can
cause catastrophic property damage.
Speaker 2 (33:24):
Nope, no argument for me on that.
Speaker 1 (33:26):
She goes on, the risk to lives and property is real,
and the consequences for getting caught just aren't worth it.
Close quote. I agree with all that, I just don't
agree with the method. It really makes me feel uncomfortable.
Not because I'm doing something which is illegal. I'm just
saying that if there's a line, it is my property line.
(33:50):
And I know I don't own the air, but there's
a reasonable expectation of property that when you're in your house,
and I consider my back yard is part of being
in my house. In other words, if Twala were to
climb the fence and drop into my backyard, I think
castle doctrine applies. I think if you're in my backyard.
(34:12):
I think so. I may be wrong, but I think so.
If if a random person can't look into my backyard,
and I know that can't by law, then how is
it when you have law enforcement under the auspices of
good intentions. And I'm not saying that there's something untoward
(34:34):
or there's some ulterior motive. I'm just saying, to your point, Tuala,
you may be looking for one thing, but at what
cost to the people who are doing nothing. I am
not comfortable with the idea of drone surveillance as a
general rule. If you if there is illegal activity that
(34:56):
you are witnessing. Someone called in illegal fireworks on Fourth
Avenue and West Mott. Okay, that's a little bit different.
I just don't want to see a drone hovering over
my house.
Speaker 6 (35:11):
I don't.
Speaker 2 (35:12):
I don't.
Speaker 1 (35:12):
And maybe I'm like Mark Ronner at this point, I'm
fighting against the inevitable, you know when we have our
conversations about AI.
Speaker 2 (35:19):
But I'm not comfortable with this.
Speaker 6 (35:20):
Not and now I support your right to practice nudism
in your backyard anytime you want.
Speaker 1 (35:27):
Well, I appreciate that. Yeah, maybe I want to do
something with my wife in the backyard. You know, maybe
it's it's your god given right, But then what happens
to all the footage? I'm just being serious. Look what
happened to the photos of Rihanna after she got her
ass beat by Chris Brown?
Speaker 2 (35:46):
I make serious? It ended up on TMZ. Yeah, yeah,
all right.
Speaker 1 (35:50):
I think about these things before they go bad, not
after they go bad. And the idea of a drone
looking in people's backyards for fireworks or whatever else, that's
a police date.
Speaker 6 (36:03):
Next thing, you'll be bringing up that Fourth Amendment that
people have spoken of before.
Speaker 1 (36:08):
Yeah, but people don't read the Constitution. They stop reading
after the Second Amendment. Let's be honest. Let's be honest.
Most people don't know five amendments. They probably know the
First Amendment, the Second Amendment, the Fifth Amendment.
Speaker 2 (36:20):
That's about it. That's what that's all, by and large,
that's what people know. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (36:24):
So when you start talking about the Fourth Amendment, and
you know, search and seizure depriving people of life, liberty,
pursuit of happiness, all like property, they don't know anything
about that.
Speaker 2 (36:35):
Focus on the deuce. Okay, if I am six forty,
we're live, everybody.
Speaker 1 (36:39):
I heart ready at kikos HD two Los Angeles, Orange County.
Speaker 2 (36:47):
More stimulating talk
It's Friday, Thank goodness. I didn't know if we were
gonna make it. I really didn't know if we're going
to make it all the way to Friday. Kay, If
I am six forty, it's later with mo Kelly. We're
live everywhere in the iHeartRadio app and YouTube and Facebook
at mister Mokelly. And we've been waiting for the better
part of I don't know, two weeks at this point,
I would say two weeks, yeah, two weeks, waiting for
(00:43):
the Dodgers to make a statement. Some were waiting for
the organization to make a stand, to send a message
to show support specifically for the Latino community estimated forty
of Dodger fans forty. I've been a Dodgers fan my
whole life, as long as I can remember, and I
(01:05):
was perplexed that there wasn't some sort of definitive statement
of support for the community or some definitive stance on
this moment, and up until early part of today, we
had neither. Then this came down the wire and I
thought I read it wrong. I thought it was like
(01:30):
ten million dollars. Nope, one tenth of that. The Dodgers
have pledged one million dollars to support immigrant communities and
not a lot of specifics.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Quote.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
In partnership with the City of Los Angeles, the Los
Angeles Dodgers have committed one million dollars toward direct financial
assistance for families of immigrants impacted by recent events in
the region. Close quote can you get more vague? Can
you avoid saying ice? Can you do more? I mean,
(02:05):
it's almost like they don't even want to put it
near a refrigerator, So you don't want to like think
about ice. You don't want to even mislead anyone to
thinking that the Dodgers care about ice.
Speaker 3 (02:16):
They have no cups of any drink of anything on
any stadium there or posts that they're done.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
After all these weeks. Yes, I didn't mean to step
on your ear, that's oka. After all these weeks.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
This was the worst best idea that someone in the
marketing department came up with. And I have a sneaking
suspicion that it probably was like five hundred thousand.
Speaker 2 (02:42):
And then he said, no, no, no, no, no, no, it's gotta
be at least a million to just make them mad. Yeah,
damn right, you gotta make them mad.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
You gotta make them mad with a million because the Dodgers,
and thank you twelve for pointing this out to me
before the show. The Dodgers were sold in twenty twelve
for price of two point one five billion dollars. And
yes there's a Lakers tie in, because the group which
purchased the Dodgers in twenty twelve, Mark Walter googen Kan
(03:10):
Group is the same group which just bought.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
The Lakers for ten billion.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
Now I'm not really good at math, but if you
could afford the Dodgers in twenty twelve two point one
five billion, and you could afford some sort of magical
deal with the Lakers for ten billion in a twelve
thirteen year period, I'm guessing the petty cash fund.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
Has more than a million dollars in it has to.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
I'm guessing the Crisis PR Department has money set aside
for moments just like these. And after two plus weeks,
a million dollars to no one in particular was the
idea that the brain Trust came up with. I don't
(04:02):
know how the million dollars is going to be douled out.
I don't know in what way or to whom it's
going to be given. I have no specifics. I just
know and I'm not even Latino. I got Spanish people,
family members, but I'm not Latino. I was mad, I
was telling bad. I saw that I was heated. I
(04:24):
looked at that and I said, know the blank, you didn't.
This was your best foot forward. That's not even like
a weekly operating cost. Hell, that made be what it
costs to open up the park on an average game night.
I would have rather me, personally, this is just me.
I'm not speaking for twelve. I'm not speaking for the
Latino community. I personally would have rather a strongly worded
(04:46):
letter that was very clear in its stance than a
million dollars, which says to me, we don't think anything
of you Latino community or your support. I looked at
as a cheap ass bribe, and it wasn't even one
which someone should take any pride in. It wasn't like, like
(05:10):
the only type of comparison I can make is the
late Kobe Bryant. We had that issue. Chieves On his
wife had the sexual assault case. He bought his wife
after the fact, a four million dollar ring. It's almost
like it feels like the Dodgers know, yeah, we know
we're wrong, but we're going to give you this in return.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
That's not even four million, though I know, I know.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
It's almost like they're treating the Latino community like a
cheap ass date. After all the time that the community,
to continue the metaphor, has dated and been faithful to
the Dodgers organization the one time, the one time, in effect,
they're asking, hey, can you show us some respect? Hey
(05:58):
can you tell the world how much you care about us? Hey,
can you demonstrate to everyone that we're your boo?
Speaker 2 (06:05):
Okay? This one time? And they couldn't do it. They
couldn't do it.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
In fact, they gave him like a little candy ring
out of the vending machine and said, here you go.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
I get it.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
The Dodgers' organization does not want to in any way
offend the Trump administration because this is what it comes
down to.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
It goes back to visiting the White House.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
It goes back to making no public statement about anything
that they may disagree with previously or presently with the
Trump administration. This is all about business. And today they
cut a check to nobody in particular. No excuse me,
they announced a check to nobody in particular. And that
(06:49):
is supposed to make anyone feel better, feel more comfortable,
or confident that the Dodgers believe in the Latino community,
or has the Latino community these back.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
I was offended.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
I cannot speak for anyone else, but I was actively
and actually mad when I saw that that was supposedly
the best foot forward of an organization that I loved dearly.
After all these days and I assume all these meetings
strategizing PR crisis meetings, this was the best foot forward.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
Question mark.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
You know what's interesting too when you think about it,
this growing Latino community coalition of activists, organizers, and individuals
who are looking to potentially boycott Los Doyers and really
make a stance because they felt disrespected because the Dodgers
(07:48):
would not publicly speak out against what was happening to
their faithful fans. That's what they were asking for. They
were asking for, Hey, Dodgers, our beloved team were showing
up to ice protest wearing Dodger hats. Yep, we want
you to let the world know you've got our back.
Not once did I hear anyone from any of those
(08:09):
organizations say, Dodgers, we need your financial support. No one
has asked for that that wasn't even a question, that
wasn't even on the table. They said, show us some love.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
Let me go back to the statement and look how carefully,
intentionally and purposefully this statement is written to not offend
the federal government and in no way cast aspersion on
the Trump administration and not in any way mentioned reality.
(08:41):
We don't know if this is after a hurricane, an earthquake.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
You know, a school fight.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
We don't know what is in reference to listen, it says, quote,
what's happening in Los Angeles has reverberated among thousands upon
thousands of people.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
What the hell does that mean?
Speaker 1 (09:00):
And we have heard the calls for us to take
a leading role on behalf of those affected.
Speaker 2 (09:06):
What the hell are you talking about? You can't even
say the word, you can't even look.
Speaker 4 (09:13):
Call a thing a thing? Ice raids? I mean, are
they talking about the wildfires? I don't know right now,
I don't know. They probably gave more for the wildfires,
and I'm being serious, Yeah, yeah, nobody asked for your money.
Speaker 2 (09:28):
They ask for your support. We'll have more on this
in just a moment.
Speaker 5 (09:32):
You're listening to later with Mo Kelly on Demand from
KFI Am six forty.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
KIM six forty is later with Mo Kelly.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
We're live on YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, the iHeartRadio app, Live
on your Mama's TV, Live on your sister's radio. We're
live on Mark's I don't know iPod, We're live everywhere.
For the break, we were talking about the Dodgers. Let
me be serious again. Let me put on my serious face.
I was angry at the fact that the Dodgers put
(10:04):
forth a million dollar bribe, my word, my word, a
million dollar bribe to get the Latino community and coalition
off the organization's back. I thought it was a paltry trinket,
lacking in affection. That was the best foot forward after
all this time. They delayed this announcement today an extra
(10:26):
day for what, Because you didn't give us a lot
of information. You didn't tell us where a million dollars
was going specifically, or to whom you still could have
announced it yesterday. Don't tell me you were, like Twalla
was saying, I guess they are scrounging around in the
couch trying to find pennies and nickels, you know, spare change,
lost change that fell out of our pockets when we're
(10:48):
sitting on the couch because not that a million dollars
is a small amount of money, but it's a small
amount of money for franchise, which is value at.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
Two point one five billion dollars. We're talking about proportionality here.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
A million dollars, I could see them giving to hurricane relief,
earthquake relief, fire relief, fire relief. You know, that's like
a standard boiler played amount. But this is about the
past forty plus years, dating back to Fernando Mania. I'm
sure that the Latino community has spent more than a
(11:27):
million dollars on Dodger tickets, Dodgers jerseys, Dodgers paraphernalia just
this season, just this season. I don't have the data
to back it up, but I know there We're some
sixty seventy games into the season, and since forty percent
of the fan base Latino, I'm quite sure I'm right
(11:49):
on that one. But if you've been paying attention or
listening to the show, there have been individuals who's spoken out.
There's keyk Hernandez who's from Puerto Rico. He spoke out
and he talked about his solidarity with Southern California and
the fans the Latino community. If you know Dodger Baseball,
I should not have to tell you about the resume
(12:10):
of Haimi Harien and his broadcast legacy with the Dodgers organization.
This is what he said on his Instagram. When you
have individuals of great respect within the organization beating the
organization to speak out, that's a bad look.
Speaker 2 (12:27):
This is what Jimi Henrien had to say. Quote.
Speaker 1 (12:30):
As an immigrant who came to this country seventy years ago,
I know firsthand the hope, courage, and determination it takes
to build a new life in a new land. I
have always believed that immigration is not just part of
the American story, it is the American story. Los Angeles
is my home, this city is my family, and it
(12:50):
breaks my heart to see the growing division in our
community and across the country. We all deserve to be
treated with dignity, respected, humanity clothes.
Speaker 2 (12:59):
Quote.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
I would have much rather this be the statement coming
from the Dodgers. You at least acknowledge the emotional toll
that this moment has taken on specifically the Latino community,
but not only the Latino community, Because if you are
an Angelino like me, then you are emotionally invested in
everything that happens to the community and to the city.
(13:24):
You can't say that this only impacts Latinos.
Speaker 2 (13:28):
Now.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
It made from an an illegal immigration sense, from an
ice raid sense. But hopefully, if you're living in Los Angeles,
this is someone you know, This is someone that you
work with.
Speaker 2 (13:42):
It may even be a family member.
Speaker 1 (13:44):
It may be a teacher, it may be a fellow classmate,
it could be all of those. So just because it
may not impact you personally directly, doesn't mean that it
does not impact you. I know it impacts me. It's
like I said last segment when I saw the one
million dollar donation. You know, it's like, can't you do
(14:05):
a little bit better? If you're just going to bribe
the community? Is that your best offer? That was your
last best offer? Or did you start at two million
and you said, well, why don't we just readoun to
a million?
Speaker 2 (14:15):
A million is enough?
Speaker 1 (14:16):
Or did you start a five hundred thousand and say, oh,
that's not enough, why don't we bump it up to
a million?
Speaker 3 (14:21):
Look, Shohei Ohtani himself donated a million dollars to survivors
of the recent earthquake in Japan. By himself out of
his own pocket, out of his own pocket, okay, and
five hundred thousand for wildfire relief here in California. Not
long ago, the Dodgers organization, along with others, pledged the
(14:44):
combined donation of over eight million to support victims of
those fighting wildfires. Get me Mad Again to the Los
Angeles Dodger Foundation has also made significant in kind donations,
providing more than two point two million donations alone to families.
A response to just COVID nineteen, I'm just like, I
(15:08):
don't understand this million.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
Here's the thing.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
When you have a record regarding social issues, such as
the Dodgers' organization does, then people are going to refer
to that. When there are social issues which are relevant
to the Dodgers organization, say what you want, this is
still relevant to the Dodgers organization. If you have a
(15:31):
history of making donations for philanthropic or for for aid
after a tragedy or a disaster, then people are going
to refer back to that, and for this to pale
in comparison to anything and everything the organization has done
(15:52):
over the past forty plus years. Yeah, that offends me
as a Dodgers fan. It says to me. It's like,
maybe maybe my fandom is misplaced. Maybe I believe the
organization to be something that is not Actually maybe the
Dodgers are not who I thought they were. Maybe, and
(16:14):
I don't know. It's almost like when someone makes an
apology and you know you're wrong, you know you're wrong,
and maybe you can't get the words like I'm sorry
out of your mouth or I fed up.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
You don't actually want to say those words.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
But if you can't get that sincerity across and be
able to convey how sincerely sorry, you are, regardless of
the words, and it's going to have to be by
deed in action. If you can't get it right the
first time, you'll never get it right. And at this point,
I'm not sure the organization will be able to get
(16:50):
it right. They had taken all this extra time to
get together a statement and some sort of peace offering
again my phrase peace offering form of this bribe, my wording,
and this is what they came up with. I don't
know if they've made it any better. In fact, I'm
pretty sure they probably made it worse.
Speaker 5 (17:12):
You're listening to Later with Mo Kelly on Demand from
KFI Am six forty.
Speaker 2 (17:29):
Six for It's Later with Mo Kelly.
Speaker 1 (17:31):
We're live everywhere on YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, the iHeartRadio app.
You get to check out the show as well as
join in on the fun, especially YouTube. We have the
motown chat going with the Mo Migos are bantering back
and forth about these issues. Right now, they're still talking
about the Dodgers. I'll be reading some of your comments
as we go along throughout the evening. Right now, I'm
(17:52):
going to briefly change directions and talk about the most
dangerous college towns plural in the U S. And this
is according to Men's Journal. Don't ask me why they're
an expert on this, but it's from Men's Journal. And
here's the list. I mean, you know, it's set interesting.
The study was released by Wassach Defense Lawyers dot com
(18:17):
w A s A t H Defense Lawyers dot com.
So here we go, coming in at number ten of
these most dangerous college towns in America. And this is
the number of crimes per one hundred thousand people. Mark,
I would like your input. Bloomington, Indiana, where Indiana University is.
Speaker 6 (18:41):
I've been there. I don't understand what's so dangerous about it.
That's a weird Yeah, see that coming. It's not as
dangerous as perdue. I mean, come on, number nine, East Lansing.
I think that's Michigan State. Yeah, East Lansing, Michigan tracks.
(19:05):
Is that where they go and layout in the middle
of the street and let cars.
Speaker 2 (19:08):
Go by them. Is that where that movie was?
Speaker 6 (19:10):
No?
Speaker 1 (19:10):
No, no, it was a fictitious college. I don't remember
what state was said. You're talking about the movie the Program,
I don't remember where it was set.
Speaker 2 (19:17):
I think Stephan is looking up for us right now.
Speaker 1 (19:21):
Let me say, program the Program, James Kahn, anyone, anyone.
Speaker 3 (19:30):
The Program? Nineteen ninety three film was that was university? Well,
it was set in Columbia, South Carolina. But I don't
know if they said the fictitious university was Eastern State University.
But it was filmed at Duke in North Carolina.
Speaker 2 (19:51):
So it was down south, down south, Okay.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
Coming in at number eight of the most dangerous college towns.
And this is crimes per capita, Cedar.
Speaker 2 (20:06):
City, Utah. I'm confused by this list. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (20:11):
I was just about to say, are you reading the
list backwards?
Speaker 2 (20:13):
Is this the best? At the middle of nowhere?
Speaker 1 (20:16):
And that's the college channel Southern Utah University. Yeah, Utah
known for its violent gangs. Do not go to Southern
Utah University. You might get shots of those hubs.
Speaker 6 (20:30):

Usdefence Lawyers dot com sus. Oh, it's very suss, but

dangerous college cities in.

America Iowa City, Iowa.
Speaker 2 (20:49):
What is this exclusive to wrestlers? Maybe you don't understand.
Speaker 1 (20:54):
Maybe is that Iowa or Iowa State that's in Iowa City.
Speaker 2 (20:59):
I think it's.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
It is University of Iowa in Iowa City. Coming in
at number six, and this is gonna blow your mind again.
Of the most dangerous college towns in America Logan, Utah.
Come on, No, something that's where Utah State is.
Speaker 3 (21:24):
No, something doesn't sit right. I'm looking at this. Wait
a minute, are they.
Speaker 6 (21:30):
Just measuring it by fights among sister wives?
Speaker 1 (21:32):
Yeah? I'm reading it correctly. I am twell. I don't
want to give away. Who's gonna tell you?
Speaker 2 (21:38):
This sounds like it would be a list of the safe,
like the most boring, you would think, But I'm reading
this correctly. Twale, look at it.
Speaker 3 (21:44):
I know, but I got to look this up on
I think we're missing like a whole list of bad
colleges here.
Speaker 2 (21:51):
I know this is the story, but I got to
look this up. Man, keep going miss number number five.
Speaker 1 (22:02):
If cut New York, that's where Cornell is, Okay, And
when I get closer to the top, you'll see like,
oh yeah.
Speaker 2 (22:10):
I'm reading it in the right direction.
Speaker 1 (22:12):
Number four of the most dangerous college towns, according to
some damass law firm Washsatch Defense Lawyers dot com.
Speaker 2 (22:22):
That's pushed published in Men's Journal. Hey man, this is
the whole story.
Speaker 1 (22:27):
Yeah, new Haven, Connecticut?
Speaker 2 (22:32):
Is that Yukon that's in New Haven? Maybe?
Speaker 1 (22:35):
Who cares?
Speaker 2 (22:36):
Connecticut? What crime has happened? What is happening here? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (22:43):
Yeah, all right, Look, you know the yang activity in Yukon,
those crypt bluffs be tripping coming into number three of
the most dangerous college towns in America. And this one
I actually agree with if you know anything about the college.
Speaker 2 (22:57):
Town Tempe, Arizona. Okay, why Mo?
Speaker 3 (23:06):
Why why tipy Arizona's drug number three drugs the heat?
Speaker 2 (23:10):
Yeah, this is Arizona State.
Speaker 1 (23:12):
No, I'm just closer to the border I'm saying it's
that and also New Mexico the state, but I don't
think any of the universities would be as high. Look,
I'm just saying that's why. That's what I'm thinking. First, blush, is.
Speaker 6 (23:25):
This related to cops getting more domestic violence calls?
Speaker 2 (23:27):
When it's hot? It just says that, it just says crime. Okay,
it's one hundred and thirty six person out of that.
Speaker 1 (23:33):
Man, Look all right, you won't disagree with the next
one coming in at number two?
Speaker 2 (23:40):
Get ready at kiss Jackson, Colosa. I love ba Okay,
I done it right.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
I mean okay, oh yeah, oh yeah yeah.
Speaker 2 (23:53):
Is it tough there?
Speaker 1 (23:56):
Yeah, well it's not that it's tough, but it's out
of you know what. The one, the one I thought
that would be on the list and it's not is
Liberty City where the University of Miami is.
Speaker 6 (24:07):
That was notorious. That what I'm saying, Like, these places
are in the middle of nowhere, Alabama. A lot of
banjo related this all, That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
Like, that's done. Dun dun, dun, dun, dun.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
All right, coming in number one of the most dangerous
college towns according to Wasach Defense Lawyers dot com as
published in Men's Journal any any guesses, So whatever you
were going to guess, go in the other direction and
think about some other college town, anyone, anyone North Carolina.
I mean, well that's a state, but you know that's
(24:41):
just a monastery place. Because we know if Utah is dangerous,
I mean, there's no hope for anyone.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
Yeah, all right, coming to number.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
One, Gangesville, Florida.
Speaker 2 (25:07):
That's the first one that's made sense so far. Gangsville, Florida.
Speaker 1 (25:11):
Yeah, and it's number one even still though.
Speaker 3 (25:14):
Okay, so no USC, is it what you're telling me
right now? USC doesn't even merit or Texas.
Speaker 1 (25:22):
You would you would think that USC since it's like
right in the middle of South Central I mean.
Speaker 3 (25:27):
For all for all the s whole commentary we hear
about California.
Speaker 2 (25:31):
No, we're not even on this list.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
No, we're for all the dead bodies that we do
know about connected to USC in South Central.
Speaker 2 (25:38):
Let's be honest. Okay.
Speaker 3 (25:39):
I just look, I call absolute BS a men's journal,
and that's a now a journal that cannot be trusted.
Speaker 2 (25:47):
This Utah stuff, I don't know.
Speaker 6 (25:49):
Look, got Utah is known for, like, hey, nice temple
garments punk.
Speaker 1 (25:54):
It's a it's according to Men's Journal, Okay, Iowa, Utah
and Iowa don't go there.
Speaker 3 (26:00):
Ever, this is a group of men who got together
wrote an article that were bullied in some down.
Speaker 2 (26:05):
Clearly this is there's no way this. You know, they
gave me a wedgye in that town. Put them on
the list. Oh by the way, though, what's the name
of the documentary, mark.
Speaker 6 (26:18):
Uh I forget the title of it, The Ohio State
something or other.
Speaker 1 (26:21):
Let me say, I was watching this documentary last night
talking about the wrestling Surviving Ohio State. Okay, yeah, talking
about the wrestling controversy of the wrestlers who were being
sexually assaulted by the team doctor back in the late
nineteen eighties, actually the same time I was in college,
and it is fantastic. It is horrible what the players
(26:44):
are going through. But it also tells you what can
go on at these big programs in these college towns,
how people get away with stuff. If I were to
connect the stories, yeah, it was. If you see Surviving
Ohio State is said Netflix are Prime, it's HBO Max neither, okay,
HBO Max. It's really good. Haven't even finished yet. But
(27:07):
it's really really good.
Speaker 6 (27:08):
It's upsetting, it's disturbing, and it's infuriating. I had all
sorts of emotions getting through it, and I have about
twenty minutes left to go. I couldn't get through it
all in one sitting. It really bothered me.
Speaker 1 (27:19):
Just gonna let you know, going to the Momigos in
Motown the chat. There are a wide variety of feelings
regarding the Dodger conversation. Charger fifty five says Dodgers should
just stay out of this, not their problem. Damned if
they do, damned if they don't. I don't think you
can stay out of it. You can't say that you
love the Latino community and do Mexican American heritage Knight
(27:42):
and then act like none of this is going on.
And the Dodger's history of Jackie Robinson, of Fernando Valezuela.
You know you've gone too far down that road to say, well, well,
not my problem. So that's where I would disagree with you.
Charge of fifty five Carl Severson says, not there, sir,
not their monkeys.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
Actually it is their circus. It really is.
Speaker 1 (28:04):
When federal agents show up your doorstep and want to
get into your pocket parking lot so they can haul
faans away. That is your circus. You know it's there.
Let me see who else. We have some listeners in
Great Falls, Montana. Welcome to Gary Lucero listening in and
watching the first time on YouTube and Great Falls, Montana.
(28:28):
But the conversation is all around the place as far
as the Dodgers acknowledging the history of the franchise. But
I would say, if I were to take an informal poll,
most of the chat is saying the Dodgers should stay
out of this.
Speaker 2 (28:42):
I think that's the worst thing in the world. Is
not going to go away.
Speaker 1 (28:46):
It hasn't, and I don't think they've handled it well
since they've made this somewhat of a statement or peace
offering to the Latino community. You know, a half assed
apology is worse than no apology.
Speaker 2 (28:59):
Not much I do know. I am slightly curious, and
I don't know.
Speaker 3 (29:08):
Brother Charger of fifty nine or who is at Carl whoever.
I don't really know these individuals. But when I hear,
because I've heard this a lot from people who have
responded to just our conversation about the Dodgers to stay
out of it, and each and every person just from
a just a casual glance not Latino. Yes, they're not
(29:33):
like they're not from the community. So it's like, well,
it's almost like, well, this doesn't affect you, so your
lack of care is understandable.
Speaker 1 (29:42):
We got to go to a break, but I will
say this, a prominent television personality hit me, texting me
and who is of Latita descent, and she was very
clear that we were expressing the sentiment of not only her,
but many of those in the Latino community.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
So I'm comfortable with it.
Speaker 5 (30:02):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
kfi AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (30:08):
KFIM six forty is Later with mo Kelly Live everywhere
on YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, the iHeartRadio app. And this is
actually a follow up story to something we discussed earlier
in the week.
Speaker 2 (30:20):
Riverside or River Tuckys I like to call.
Speaker 1 (30:23):
They're going to crack down on illegal fireworks just like
the City of Carson. The city says it will begin
deploying small unmanned aerial systems you know, drones to help police, firefighters,
and code enforcement teams detect and document illegal fireworks.
Speaker 2 (30:40):
Violations from the air.
Speaker 1 (30:43):
Do you know a lot of the people who I
know who use illegal fireworks, they do it in their
backyard out of view of the police.
Speaker 2 (30:52):
And this just says this strait, I'm just going to
look at your backyard.
Speaker 1 (30:57):
You don't need the drones. If they're doing it out
in front of the house, you just see them, so
they're looking in your backyard. I'm uncomfortable with that. I'm
really uncomfortable with that. I don't know where the law
begins or ends, but I do know. If I'm just
walking around my backyard but ass naked, which I've been
(31:21):
known to do on occasion, that's my business.
Speaker 2 (31:25):
Why are you new justiced in your place? I didn't
know this, no, but I was.
Speaker 1 (31:28):
Saying, if I want to and I'm scratching my ass
or whatever, that's my business. It just because you're I
think a reasonable assumption. We always talk about the reasonable
expectation of privacy. For me, the reasonable expectation of privacy
is when I'm on my property that there isn't someone
in the tree per se looking down on me. That's
(31:51):
my reasonable expectation of privacy because you can't see in
my backyard to while you've been in my house. So
the walls are I want to say, maybe seven eight
feet high. Okay, you have to be looking down in
my backyard to see anything I'm doing in my backyard.
I'm not comfortable with the idea because I live it.
Let's be honest, I live in a neighborhood where there's
(32:12):
a lot of illegal fireworks activity. So if they're going
to implement this in the city of Los Angeles and
they start flying drones in my neighborhood, maybe looking for
my neighbor to the right or to the left, or
across the street, that means you're looking in my backyard
as well. That makes me very uncomfortable. As we always
talk about, you know, I don't want the government in
(32:32):
my house. That's little in government in your house.
Speaker 3 (32:35):
The slippery slope that you're describing is first it's looking
in neighborhoods to find fireworks. Then it's today, have to
make this neighborhood safer. Let's use them to start tracking
down street takeovers. And then as you know what, to
make your neighborhood even safer, we're gonna fly these drones
around so we can see if there's anyone just prowling
(32:56):
around potentially breaking into your house next to you know,
it's just droned in the sky above our neighborhoods.
Speaker 1 (33:01):
Not only that, I think you missed the most obvious
one looking for illegal immigrants.
Speaker 2 (33:07):
Oh who's in your house? Yeah? Okay.
Speaker 1 (33:11):
I always think about how something can really go wrong,
and this is Riverside Mayor Patricia Locke Dawson, who had
to say we saw firsthand last summer how fireworks can
cause catastrophic property damage.
Speaker 2 (33:24):
Nope, no argument for me on that.
Speaker 1 (33:26):
She goes on, the risk to lives and property is real,
and the consequences for getting caught just aren't worth it.
Close quote. I agree with all that, I just don't
agree with the method. It really makes me feel uncomfortable.
Not because I'm doing something which is illegal. I'm just
saying that if there's a line, it is my property line.
(33:50):
And I know I don't own the air, but there's
a reasonable expectation of property that when you're in your house,
and I consider my back yard is part of being
in my house. In other words, if Twala were to
climb the fence and drop into my backyard, I think
castle doctrine applies. I think if you're in my backyard.
(34:12):
I think so. I may be wrong, but I think so.
If if a random person can't look into my backyard,
and I know that can't by law, then how is
it when you have law enforcement under the auspices of
good intentions. And I'm not saying that there's something untoward
(34:34):
or there's some ulterior motive. I'm just saying, to your point, Tuala,
you may be looking for one thing, but at what
cost to the people who are doing nothing. I am
not comfortable with the idea of drone surveillance as a
general rule. If you if there is illegal activity that
(34:56):
you are witnessing. Someone called in illegal fireworks on Fourth
Avenue and West Mott. Okay, that's a little bit different.
I just don't want to see a drone hovering over
my house.
Speaker 6 (35:11):
I don't.
Speaker 2 (35:12):
I don't.
Speaker 1 (35:12):
And maybe I'm like Mark Ronner at this point, I'm
fighting against the inevitable, you know when we have our
conversations about AI.
Speaker 2 (35:19):
But I'm not comfortable with this.
Speaker 6 (35:20):
Not and now I support your right to practice nudism
in your backyard anytime you want.
Speaker 1 (35:27):
Well, I appreciate that. Yeah, maybe I want to do
something with my wife in the backyard. You know, maybe
it's it's your god given right, But then what happens
to all the footage? I'm just being serious. Look what
happened to the photos of Rihanna after she got her
ass beat by Chris Brown?
Speaker 2 (35:46):
I make serious? It ended up on TMZ. Yeah, yeah,
all right.
Speaker 1 (35:50):
I think about these things before they go bad, not
after they go bad. And the idea of a drone
looking in people's backyards for fireworks or whatever else, that's
a police date.
Speaker 6 (36:03):
Next thing, you'll be bringing up that Fourth Amendment that
people have spoken of before.
Speaker 1 (36:08):
Yeah, but people don't read the Constitution. They stop reading
after the Second Amendment. Let's be honest. Let's be honest.
Most people don't know five amendments. They probably know the
First Amendment, the Second Amendment, the Fifth Amendment.
Speaker 2 (36:20):
That's about it. That's what that's all, by and large,
that's what people know. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (36:24):
So when you start talking about the Fourth Amendment, and
you know, search and seizure depriving people of life, liberty,
pursuit of happiness, all like property, they don't know anything
about that.
Speaker 2 (36:35):
Focus on the deuce. Okay, if I am six forty,
we're live, everybody.
Speaker 1 (36:39):
I heart ready at kikos HD two Los Angeles, Orange County.
Speaker 2 (36:47):
