Speaker 1 (00:00):
I'm eleven eighty.
Speaker 2 (00:00):
Next News at eleven thirty, breaking news when it happens anytime.
Speaker 3 (00:04):
But first, another hour with Bob Lonsbury starts now on
news radio Wham eleven eighty.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
Thanks sir, I appreciate that. Good morning, my friend. Thank
you so much for tuning in. Peering out the window here,
it is a flat out beautiful day for a radio program.
A lot of folks got into the Highmark Stadium over
the weekend, and some photos have been posted which seemed
to indicate that they're at the upper deck, that there
(00:32):
are an awful lot of obstructed view seats, and you know,
from a design standpoint, it's kind of a head scratcher.
All the money that went into this and all the
money that people are going to be charged to get
into this, to have possibly an excess of one thousand
seats with obstructed views is again not what you would
(00:58):
necessarily expect. And I think I saw Thad Brown post
a photograph of the Buffalo Nickel uniform, and yeah, it
looks worse than we thought. Other than that, other than that,
I'm sure everything is just fine. There is another aspect
(01:18):
of the WNBA controversy going on right now.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
That I mentioned briefly.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
I suspect that shortly the next show will take it
up pretty seriously. But Sophie Cunningham is a player who
has emerged in prominence here in recent weeks. For those
of us who don't follow the WNBA, there was kind
of a classic photograph or video of her pointing her
(01:44):
finger at another player and it just was kind of
a cool look and it took off as a meme
or whatever. At any rate, Sophie Cunningham had been in
the news the last week or so because you know,
she had in February given some interview wherein she said that,
you know, biological males shouldn't compete against biological females in sports.
(02:08):
She didn't have any hard feelings stories anybody, she loved everybody,
but just in the interest of fairness, that stuff shouldn't happen. Well,
so that had raised her prominence even more over. The
weekend a game her Indiana Fever against Chicago Sky, and
there was a flagrant foul committed against Sophie Cunningham by
(02:31):
a player from the Sky called dejon A Carrington, and
you know, she whacked her in the face pretty good.
Left Sophie Cunningham with blood in her mouth, and you know,
de John A.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
Carrington was.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
Given a flagrant foul level too, whatever that means, but
she had to go to the shower. She was out
of the game, kind of like a red card, I guess.
But at any rate, so from the locker room while
the game is going on, Dejon A. Carrington just typed
(03:09):
in the words in capital letters white privilege and then
did the hashtag of the Indiana fever. Miss Carrington is
is African American. Miss Cunningham is Caucasian, so that, you know,
kind of immediately blew into something.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
Of a controversy.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
And at any rate, I think that you know, Clay
and Buck, we'll discuss this at length.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
Clay Travis has been on.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
The w n B A the last week or so
and he doesn't like its politics, and I can't blame him.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
I feel exactly the same way.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
I'm not exactly sure why an athletic, you know, league
needs to have politics, but there seems to be a
significant overlay having to do with issues.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
Of race and issues of sexual orientation.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
But anyway, he put out this challenge and he's probably
talked about on his show where he said I'll pay.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
I'll put up a whole bunch of money.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
You give me the team that wins, you know, you
give me the best team you have in the WNBA.
And then you let me take a state championship boys
high school basketball team, and I'll bet you some large
amount of money or stake some large amount of money
that the high school boys win over the professional female athletes.
(04:33):
And you know, that's gone back and forth. But that's
the status of the WNBA today. And it's interesting because
I think that probably the WNBA has a far larger
following on social media as a topic because of politics
then it has actual people who watch games because after
(04:56):
most of a generation of the WNBA playing, don't think
until politics came into it that it, you know, kind
of emerged into the public's mind. It's there's more trouble
with UH. I don't want to say with tainted food
started out. You recall that there was something called cyclospora
(05:20):
which created what explosive diarrhea, and that was traced at
least partially to UH cabbage. Now there's an issue with
with salmonella, and salmonella traced to UH halapanos and these
halopanos can end up in you know, dips, salsas, guacamole,
(05:43):
any number of prepared foods. Both of these problems seemed
to involve. It turns out, coincidentally a company called Taylor Farms.
Taylor Farms cured the lettuce itself. It has lettuce growing
operations and contracts. The halopeniws it bought from another company.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
But here's the deal. Both the lettuce in question.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
Which was tainted with feces, and the salmonella, which is
the only way you can spread cyclospora. Right, it comes
out of one person's butt and goes in another person's mouth.
That's how you have cyclostporo blah blah blah whatever it's called.
A relative to the jalapenos and the salmonella. It likewise
is you know that salmonella. It came out of somebody's
(06:37):
butt at one point, and then it goes back in
another person and gets them sick. Just the salmonel alone
has sickn three hundred people in twenty seven states. The
cyclospora on the lettuce has sick people in fifteen states.
There doesn't seem to be with either.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
One of these.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
Much of a presence in New York State and The
only presence I could find was down towards New York
City for a little bit of the lettuce. So we
in our region seem thus far to be fine on this.
But the common thread is that, excuse me, both the
lettuce and the jalapanos both came out of Mexico, right
(07:21):
and again, in different countries. People live different ways, and
that includes where and how people go to the bathroom.
And you know, uh, and both of these are you know,
fecal related contaminants, which you know doesn't build much confidence.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
Is this just a coincidence?
Speaker 2 (07:43):
Is it, you know, some kind of protest against our
country our tariffs are immigration policy, who knows what? Or again,
just maybe a flukey coincidence. But I think a point
I made last week is simply this. You can avoid
any of this mystery and uncertainty by buying locally grown
(08:06):
produce whenever and wherever you can, right. I know, Wegmans
tries to source locally, though sometimes add a little posters
up about where these peaches are, where this or that
came from. You go to the Amish people and their markets,
you're going to be getting locally grown stuff. If you
go to the roadside stands, you're getting locally grown stuff.
(08:28):
If you go to a farmer's markets, you're getting locally
grown stuff. If you go to the public market, it's
largely or significantly locally grown stuff. You still, you know,
wash your vegetables, ner fruit, you know the best you can.
But if the problem is arising out of Mexico and
it's a rising out of human feces, somehow getting any
(08:52):
there's a worker out there and he takes a crap
in the field, or who knows what the deal is.
But in our we don't have that challenge. And so
again we get a lot of wonderful, wholesome food from Mexico.
And I'm not trying to talk them down, but this
is one more good reason to buy a local produce
(09:13):
whenever and wherever you can take a break back with
you a moment on NewsRadio Wham eleven eighty.

Yeah, Selene prices everything that we can to bring it

up with what's going down. Use radio Wham eleven eighty, Rochester,
High Bridge. At the Elmwood Dental Group Elmwood Dental Group,
first time anybody from our family went there.
Speaker 1 (09:38):
It was a call in the in the middle of
the night.
Speaker 2 (09:42):
Blue Eyed Ellie had taken a golf club to the
mouth some kind of church activity. Somebody wasn't looking and
at any rate knocked off a tooth. That's not good
a young girl, teenager about to get out of high school. So,
to be honest with you, I had heard ads for
Elmwood DNL Group and so I reached out. I knew
(10:06):
they had the Smile Center there. I knew they are
the best. I said, is what do we do? Can
you help? And they took right care for like that.
That's the underlying nature and commitment of the Elmwood Dental Group.
They look after people, and the Rochester Hybridge at the
elmwoodn Group that's their dental implant practice where that same
(10:26):
culture is absolutely extant. They take care of people, They
look after you. They always have your best interest in
your comfort at heart. If you've lost teeth, this is
where you go for dental implants. And they have a
technology they developed themselves which allows you can do all
your tops, all your bottoms, you can do all your
teeth implants four six zero twenty seven sixty seven Rochester

Speaker 3 (10:54):
Here are three questions most people can't answer.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
Who controls your.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
Fairly minor press really from the Rochester Police Department or
a response to a reporter's question which was sent back
by an RPD lieutenant, it said and they wrote this
in the middle of the night last night, good morning.
The Rochester Police Department is investigating a shooting that occurred
(11:18):
in the area of the one hundred block at de
Pew Street and Grover Street on August tenth, twenty twenty six.
That's approximately two five am. Rochester Police officers responded to
the area following a single shot spotter activation and a
report of a male shot. Upon arrival, officers located a
twenty three year.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
Old Rochester resident.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
It continues on and non life threatening, but you know,
pretty big deal. He's at the hospital. The reason I
bring this up is because this whole thing arises out
of a shot spotter activation. It's a technology it hears
when a gun is just charged in the city of Rochester.
(12:02):
It's able to I don't know if triangulation is exactly
the technology that they use, but it's able to locate
where a sound originates from they can pinpoint it and
then they will dispatch officers out to where that shot
was taken and they will do it like immediately, right
(12:23):
go here, there's gunfire. And in this situation and in
countless other situations, that allows first responders to get to
a place right after someone is shot. I mean when
you get shot, of course, one you're in a bad situation,
but two your situation is getting worse by the moment. Okay,
(12:46):
you are bleeding out, you're going into shot.
Speaker 1 (12:48):
Who knows what, right.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
But the passing of time it works against you, and
shot spotter lets bang people get there. Class this morning early,
this young man is at the hospital getting treatment, was
able to very quickly get the assistance of you know,
the police are there and then the fire and ambulance
(13:11):
and off to the hospital. This young man was able
to get that assistance because of this technology. I only
mention it because you know, we have a lot of
folks who don't like the police, and we have, unfortunately
some politicians and that's kind of their stock in trade
aiding on the police.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
Well, in some.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
Other cities to include in upstate New York, the activists
are against shot Spotter. They say that it over polices
minority neighborhoods, that it criminalizes non criminal conduct, that it's
too much of Big Brother listening in, And you know,
(13:53):
I would just politely say.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
This is bunk.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
It lets you know if a gun has gone off,
that's it right. It's not peering down your ear, it's
not stealing your DNA, it's not violating your privacy. But
it is time and time and time again letting police
know where violence is happening right now. And it also
allows people who got shot. This young man twenty three
(14:17):
years of age. He was conscious when they got there,
and that's positive. But how many times are people shot
they're not conscious, they have no way to summon help,
Nobody knows about them except for that shot spotter. And
there's also right now a lot of pushback in other
places against license plate readers. There's a one company, one
(14:40):
brand of license plate reader is Flock Cameras, and you know,
kind of the national we hate cop people are pushing
back hard against these flock cameras. And I would just
politely say that we've had on here last week the
Greece police chief acting chief talking about what those license
(15:01):
plate readers have done for his department.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
They're a useful thing.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
Defund the police is not a phrase that a lot
of you know, the progressive activists start using right now. However,
you know they will achieve their end by other means.
And if you can limit and restrict police technologies, if
you can hamstring officers and departments, then you will have
(15:30):
achieved your goal of pushing back against the police. And
you know here it's well, we're not asking you to
hate the cops right now. We did that before and
we'll do that again later. We're asking you to hate
the technology that the cops choose, technology that protects.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
People and saves lives.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
I say that they're not asking you to hate the
police right now, I misspeak, because of course they are
asking you to hate the federal police engaged in immigration
these you know, anyway.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
We'll shut up. We talked about that a lot. Uh.
Speaker 2 (16:08):
President Trump is spending sending his son in law Jared
Kushner and his friend mister Wycoff now to Russia to
you know, negotiate or see if there's not some possibility
of peace there with Ukraine. And you know, I know
that President Trump has confidence in uh, mister Wykoff and
(16:32):
mister Kushner. But in addition to confidence, it's also good.
Speaker 1 (16:39):
If you could have results.
Speaker 2 (16:41):
And you know, in the State Department, we you know,
the traditional negotiators or whatever, most of those lost their
job under Doge. And so the emissary of the president
has become his son in law and this man uh Wyckoff,
And you know that's a presence progative. That's fine, it's
(17:02):
his business right, not ours to decide who represents him.
But we've had a year and a half and all
this peacemaking we're going to do just hasn't taken place yet.
And you know, if you're playing sports and you have
a you know, like a certain number of hockey players
(17:23):
out there and you're not quite again done, you'll mix
that up. Same with any other sport. And you just
wonder people in positions for a year and a half
without really being successful, is it not maybe time to
think of you move the pieces around a little bit,
send somebody else over there.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
We'll take a break because it's time for news with
Dave Deebo on news radio Wham eleven eighty.

Speaker 2 (20:01):
Do you pay much attention at all to the WNBA?
Speaker 3 (20:07):
A little bit? Yes?
Speaker 1 (20:08):
Okay? Do you like watching games or nowhere?
Speaker 3 (20:11):
That's all right?
Speaker 1 (20:12):
Okay? Do you watch much basketball?
Speaker 2 (20:14):
Not? Really?
Speaker 1 (20:15):
Yeah? Me neither.
Speaker 2 (20:16):
If I were to watch a game, it wouldn't matter
to me if it was NB or WNBA.
Speaker 1 (20:22):
I don't care. It's just basketball, right, I guess?
Speaker 3 (20:25):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (20:25):
No for me?
Speaker 1 (20:27):
I wouldn't care check up on your weekend. Work went
well yesterday?
Speaker 3 (20:32):
Uh yeah for the most part.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
Okay, very good.
Speaker 2 (20:34):
Do you have any thought on there's a lot of
attention focused of late to some of these new candidates,
the gentleman out of Michigan in the Democratic Party are
what phenomenon is is going on here?
Speaker 1 (20:47):
Do you think.
Speaker 3 (20:49):
People are sick and tired of politics as usual and
are voting for something different? That's what's going on here
in both those races.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
It's decidedly different. It's not a random difference, though, I mean,
is there is there a rising new direction of the
Democratic Party?
Speaker 3 (21:09):
There's there's really three different versions of the Democratic Party.
There's the there's the blue dog kind of super moderate Democrat.
There's the left of center progressives, and then there's the
socialist wing. There's like three sectors, and they're kind of
all at war with each other.
Speaker 1 (21:27):
Are there very many Blue Dogs anymore?
Speaker 3 (21:29):
There's a few still around.
Speaker 1 (21:32):
I can't really think of any off the top of
my head.
Speaker 3 (21:34):
There's a few down of Florida. John Fetterman's kind of
becoming then, Okay, that's in Pennsylvania.
Speaker 2 (21:40):
Ftterman's a good point would Where's where's Governor Hokele in this?
Speaker 1 (21:44):
Do you think on that spectrum.
Speaker 3 (21:46):
Sir, she would be one of those left of center progressives.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
Yeah, it is the fight. Then are the blue dogs?
They're not consequential? Are they not really the fight between the.
Speaker 3 (22:00):
Day day day day day day weigh in and say
things outside of that. Not really?
Speaker 1 (22:04):
Yeah, and they they are.
Speaker 2 (22:07):
They can be blue dogs or they are blue dogs
because of the politics of their region or state.
Speaker 3 (22:12):
Yes, yeah, more or less.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
In the move between the very progressives and the left
of centers, is it just a coincidence that the left
that the real progressives have had a good run, or
is there some larger theme there you think?
Speaker 3 (22:29):
I think people want to move away from what they
see as establishment politics. What basically, basically what the primary
voter see is we gave these establishment with people the
rains during the Biden years and Trump came back. It
didn't work, so now let's do it our way. That's
(22:53):
that's kind of the calculation.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
I think the New York has been You would expect
at New York would have been benefited, and may it
may have been benefited is a question. We've had the
top Democrat in the Senate and the top Democrat in
the House New York State has have Have those two
things been consequential or beneficial to the state, do you think.
Speaker 3 (23:16):
To an extent, Yes, Chuck Schumer is very good at
bringing home the bacon, so to speak. I'm not exactly
sure what inpact Jefferies has really had.
Speaker 2 (23:28):
It's it's I wonder if he's ever actually been in charge.
I know he's the boss, but that Speaker Emerita thing,
I think that's a she has a great deal of influence.
Speaker 3 (23:39):
She does. But in any event, she's retiring at the
end of this year, so we'll we'll we'll get to see,
especially since he's extremely likely to be Speaker of House,
what kind of power he what kind of power he's
actually able to wield.
Speaker 1 (23:52):
Here's what I would I'd put a little proviso on there.
Speaker 2 (23:55):
He may be he may have a pretty good chance,
or there may be a really good chance the Democrats
will be the minority or the majority rather in the
House after January. But is it is it a lock
that Hakim Jeffries is still their leader? Then yes, because
I mean for him, yeah.
Speaker 3 (24:14):
Schumer may have more of a problem.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
Though Schumer seems almost to be detested.
Speaker 3 (24:19):
Yes, the rhetoric he might have a challenge.
Speaker 2 (24:22):
The rhetoric against Schumer is strong in January with that
new Congress, who might challenge him to lead the Democrats.
Speaker 3 (24:30):
Uh, there's there's been uh swirlings around Chris Murphy that
he might be a challenge to Schumer and that he
might get a decent amount of support.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
Chris Murphy is an intelligent person. I don't know about him.
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (24:50):
Like Schumer almost defines political operative in my month, I
don't know where Murphy stands in regard to that. Corey
Booker's prominence in the Democratic Party.
Speaker 3 (25:02):
He's prominent, but he's not really super super prominent.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
He's always been And I don't mean this as insult
because I actually like Corey Booker quite a bit. He's
always been like second tier.
Speaker 3 (25:14):
Yes, he wants to be Obama, but he's not really Obama.
Speaker 2 (25:19):
Yeah, there are some aspects of him and his story
that I like far better than Obama's story, But Obama, again,
I'm not a big fan of.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
It.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
Was from an intellectual standpoint, intelligence standpoint, a political planning standpoint,
very very strong, and Corey Booker in those areas may
not be as strong. Yes, yeah, but you your prediction
is House for sure, House for sure and Senate maybe yeah,
(25:53):
Senate maybe.
Speaker 3 (25:54):
I think that they're definitely, they're definitely winning North Carolina.
I think even Republicans have thrown in the towel on
that one. It's looking it's gonna be it's a toss
up in Maine. But it's the reason this pulls out
(26:17):
kind of good for for Jackson. Ohio is looking good
for Sharrod Brown, which will kind of be in the
which will kind of be a pie in the feat
of Trump if Sharrod Brown ends up beating Husted over there,
because they would have had that seat for another bunch
of years had they not have pulled Vance out. And
then uh, and then the race in Alaska between Mary
(26:41):
Prolsa and Dan Sulivan is looking increasingly good for us.
And then and then and then the and then the
Texas race is very close again because of again, because
of candidate quality on the part of the Republicans.
Speaker 2 (26:56):
Because your who's your who's your Democrat guy down there,
the minister whatever, Yes, James Trico. Yeah, in a in
a different universe or a different day, I don't think
he would stand much of a chance.
Speaker 3 (27:07):
It was Cornan, he wouldn't stand much of a chance.
But because it's Ken Paxton, Paxton who was deeply flawed,
deeply flaught. He almost got impeached from his job is
Attorney General by his own party. That's how flawed he is.
Speaker 2 (27:22):
Yeah, but that's a situation where you know not to
throw stones at him. But Trump insisted on getting revenge
and that may well cost that seat. Yes, about that,
And here's the thing, you know we all have to
reviewse I thought Cornyn.
Speaker 1 (27:37):
Was a rational person.
Speaker 3 (27:38):
He was.
Speaker 1 (27:39):
Yeah, he's a fine senator, does a good job. The
Michigan guy.
Speaker 3 (27:47):
That's gonna be interesting race. I think LSA it's gonna
win that.
Speaker 1 (27:52):
If he does, that will be a thunderclap.
Speaker 3 (27:53):
I think it'll be off the strength of the gubernatorial
ticket and because it's it's going to be such a
them leading environment because they have street straight ticket voting
up there. Yeah, yeah, but I think he but I
think he'll he'll he'll beat Rogers.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (28:11):
Which of the New York gubernatorial polls do you believe?
Not by name but by rough percentage?
Speaker 3 (28:17):
Uh? The Santa Pole is more I think more realistic.
Speaker 1 (28:21):
It's it's had about twenty points.
Speaker 3 (28:23):
I think she'll win by about ten.
Speaker 2 (28:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (28:28):
Well, and she was it six or what was it
six or seven against Lee Zelden. I don't recall to you.
Speaker 3 (28:35):
It was it was yeah, some we're around there.
Speaker 2 (28:36):
Yeah, well, there you go. Any chance Republicans hold the line.
Speaker 3 (28:45):
Uh, it's not very good right now unless this war
comes to and I wrote real quickly in our favor,
I will give you this. I will give you this.
There is one bit of good news for Republicans in Wisconsin.
If Hong wins the primary there for for governor, the
Republicans will win that seat.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
Hong is a you know, doesn't like Thanksgiving, doesn't like
white people. She you know, she's quite a you know,
very distinctive, very very strong flavor.
Speaker 3 (29:14):
Yes she is. She is so far off the reservation
that even Bernie Sanders said he's not going to endorse her.
Speaker 1 (29:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (29:21):
So if so, if so, if she wins that primary
for governor, I think the Republicans are probably gonna win
that one. So so there you go.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
Let me throw this to you and I history and everything,
you know, mid term election, extremely unpopular president underwater two
to one. You'd say, oh, yeah, the opposing party wins big.
Speaker 1 (29:43):
But what about this? Every place by.
Speaker 2 (29:45):
Both parties has been so jerry mandered that it really
doesn't matter. I'm a Republican, I'm voting for a Republican,
or I'm a Democrat. I'm voting for a Democrat. And
there may not be much movement, particularly House.
Speaker 1 (30:00):
What do you think about that?
Speaker 3 (30:01):
In most states there won't be a lot of movement,
But because Republicans have such a slim majority in the
House Representatives, there are still enough toss up seats to
flip that.
Speaker 2 (30:15):
Yeah, no one in our region, no one before the
Hudson River with any chance of changing parties this House election.
Speaker 3 (30:23):
No, probably not.
Speaker 2 (30:24):
Yeah, real quick, I don't We're late and people don't care.
New York is it twenty one? Replacing Alista Fanic Constantino
versus the dairy farmer Constino, little goofy.
Speaker 3 (30:36):
Your thoughts there, Well, the Democrats seem to think that
there's a chance, because they're starting to put in money
up there. Yeah, I don't necessarily think there's a chance,
but they seem to think there's a chance, which is interesting. Yeah,
so they must have some pulling that shows that race
being closer than I think it might be.
Speaker 2 (30:56):
Yeah, it's an interesting kind of deal. And how's Trump
doing terrible? Yeah it is, Yeah, it's uh, it's the
bright rays of sunshine the last few weeks and kind
of fear.

you on real quick first, So if I could, I'd
like to say we had that such yesterday where at
the motel down in Henrietta. God bless the man and
his family and his memory and his friends.
Speaker 1 (33:07):
But it looks like it may have been a.
Speaker 2 (33:11):
Cop assisted suicide or suicide by cop, whatever they call it.
And a heartbreaking situation. The phone call comes in, there's
a suicidal man here. He's got a box cutter. He's
threatened to hurt himself. So the deputies go and the
gentleman who knows what he's going through, who knows what
his difficulty is. But the paradigm changes and now he's
(33:33):
trying to hurt the deputies. And we haven't received all
the details yet, we don't know the information.
Speaker 1 (33:37):
But a situation.
Speaker 2 (33:38):
Developed where, of course a box cutter can kill you, right,
A box cutter across the throat has probably killed more
people than anything other than firearms in this country period, Right,
And there is this dangerous situation created, and the officers
were compelled to use their firearms. Please keep them your
(34:00):
thoughts and prayers. And again, his family and friends and
obviously recognize that sad loss of life. But this situation
created by the gentleman who's passed on, and it is
a situation which has the potential to be a professional
and emotional and spiritual burden for those officers, those two
(34:20):
deputies who woke up yesterday morning and went to work,
leaving their families behind with no other thought or wish
than to serve and protect. And sometimes the price of
their service is very high, emotionally, physically, spiritually, other ways.
And again, I'm sorry for the loss of this man's life,
(34:41):
but I hope that you'll remember the deputies in your prayers.
They'll be investigations, and the Attorney General's investigation, which could
go you know, six months or a year, will hang
over their head until it is resolved.

Hello, you're on news radio.
Speaker 4 (34:59):
Wham a.
Speaker 5 (35:01):
All the news that spit to print for as long
as the news is woke.
Speaker 2 (35:07):
That's the way newspapers kind of cut their own throat
by abandoning the values of most of their readers. But
the real thing that killed newspapers was because newspapers have
been liberal for a long long time and been making
money hand over fist. It was online advertising. It wasn't
(35:28):
the transmission of news. It was the advertising. Online ads,
Craigslist maybe most particularly, took revenue out of newspapers. And
any business that doesn't have money coming in the door
is not going to have those doors open very long.
Speaker 1 (35:44):
I need to run.

But first, another hour with Bob Lonsbury starts now on
news radio Wham eleven eighty.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
Thanks sir, I appreciate that. Good morning, my friend. Thank
you so much for tuning in. Peering out the window here,
it is a flat out beautiful day for a radio program.
A lot of folks got into the Highmark Stadium over
the weekend, and some photos have been posted which seemed
to indicate that they're at the upper deck, that there
(00:32):
are an awful lot of obstructed view seats, and you know,
from a design standpoint, it's kind of a head scratcher.
All the money that went into this and all the
money that people are going to be charged to get
into this, to have possibly an excess of one thousand
seats with obstructed views is again not what you would
(00:58):
necessarily expect. And I think I saw Thad Brown post
a photograph of the Buffalo Nickel uniform, and yeah, it
looks worse than we thought. Other than that, other than that,
I'm sure everything is just fine. There is another aspect
(01:18):
of the WNBA controversy going on right now.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
That I mentioned briefly.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
I suspect that shortly the next show will take it
up pretty seriously. But Sophie Cunningham is a player who
has emerged in prominence here in recent weeks. For those
of us who don't follow the WNBA, there was kind
of a classic photograph or video of her pointing her
(01:44):
finger at another player and it just was kind of
a cool look and it took off as a meme
or whatever. At any rate, Sophie Cunningham had been in
the news the last week or so because you know,
she had in February given some interview wherein she said that,
you know, biological males shouldn't compete against biological females in sports.
(02:08):
She didn't have any hard feelings stories anybody, she loved everybody,
but just in the interest of fairness, that stuff shouldn't happen. Well,
so that had raised her prominence even more over. The
weekend a game her Indiana Fever against Chicago Sky, and
there was a flagrant foul committed against Sophie Cunningham by
(02:31):
a player from the Sky called dejon A Carrington, and
you know, she whacked her in the face pretty good.
Left Sophie Cunningham with blood in her mouth, and you know,
de John A.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
Carrington was.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
Given a flagrant foul level too, whatever that means, but
she had to go to the shower. She was out
of the game, kind of like a red card, I guess.
But at any rate, so from the locker room while
the game is going on, Dejon A. Carrington just typed
(03:09):
in the words in capital letters white privilege and then
did the hashtag of the Indiana fever. Miss Carrington is
is African American. Miss Cunningham is Caucasian, so that, you know,
kind of immediately blew into something.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
Of a controversy.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
And at any rate, I think that you know, Clay
and Buck, we'll discuss this at length.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
Clay Travis has been on.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
The w n B A the last week or so
and he doesn't like its politics, and I can't blame him.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
I feel exactly the same way.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
I'm not exactly sure why an athletic, you know, league
needs to have politics, but there seems to be a
significant overlay having to do with issues.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
Of race and issues of sexual orientation.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
But anyway, he put out this challenge and he's probably
talked about on his show where he said I'll pay.
Speaker 1 (04:08):
I'll put up a whole bunch of money.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
You give me the team that wins, you know, you
give me the best team you have in the WNBA.
And then you let me take a state championship boys
high school basketball team, and I'll bet you some large
amount of money or stake some large amount of money
that the high school boys win over the professional female athletes.
(04:33):
And you know, that's gone back and forth. But that's
the status of the WNBA today. And it's interesting because
I think that probably the WNBA has a far larger
following on social media as a topic because of politics
then it has actual people who watch games because after
(04:56):
most of a generation of the WNBA playing, don't think
until politics came into it that it, you know, kind
of emerged into the public's mind. It's there's more trouble
with UH. I don't want to say with tainted food
started out. You recall that there was something called cyclospora
(05:20):
which created what explosive diarrhea, and that was traced at
least partially to UH cabbage. Now there's an issue with
with salmonella, and salmonella traced to UH halapanos and these
halopanos can end up in you know, dips, salsas, guacamole,
(05:43):
any number of prepared foods. Both of these problems seemed
to involve. It turns out, coincidentally a company called Taylor Farms.
Taylor Farms cured the lettuce itself. It has lettuce growing
operations and contracts. The halopeniws it bought from another company.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
But here's the deal. Both the lettuce in question.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
Which was tainted with feces, and the salmonella, which is
the only way you can spread cyclospora. Right, it comes
out of one person's butt and goes in another person's mouth.
That's how you have cyclostporo blah blah blah whatever it's called.
A relative to the jalapenos and the salmonella. It likewise
is you know that salmonella. It came out of somebody's
(06:37):
butt at one point, and then it goes back in
another person and gets them sick. Just the salmonel alone
has sickn three hundred people in twenty seven states. The
cyclospora on the lettuce has sick people in fifteen states.
There doesn't seem to be with either.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
One of these.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
Much of a presence in New York State and The
only presence I could find was down towards New York
City for a little bit of the lettuce. So we
in our region seem thus far to be fine on this.
But the common thread is that, excuse me, both the
lettuce and the jalapanos both came out of Mexico, right
(07:21):
and again, in different countries. People live different ways, and
that includes where and how people go to the bathroom.
And you know, uh, and both of these are you know,
fecal related contaminants, which you know doesn't build much confidence.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
Is this just a coincidence?
Speaker 2 (07:43):
Is it, you know, some kind of protest against our
country our tariffs are immigration policy, who knows what? Or again,
just maybe a flukey coincidence. But I think a point
I made last week is simply this. You can avoid
any of this mystery and uncertainty by buying locally grown
(08:06):
produce whenever and wherever you can, right. I know, Wegmans
tries to source locally, though sometimes add a little posters
up about where these peaches are, where this or that
came from. You go to the Amish people and their markets,
you're going to be getting locally grown stuff. If you
go to the roadside stands, you're getting locally grown stuff.
(08:28):
If you go to a farmer's markets, you're getting locally
grown stuff. If you go to the public market, it's
largely or significantly locally grown stuff. You still, you know,
wash your vegetables, ner fruit, you know the best you can.
But if the problem is arising out of Mexico and
it's a rising out of human feces, somehow getting any
(08:52):
there's a worker out there and he takes a crap
in the field, or who knows what the deal is.
But in our we don't have that challenge. And so
again we get a lot of wonderful, wholesome food from Mexico.
And I'm not trying to talk them down, but this
is one more good reason to buy a local produce
(09:13):
whenever and wherever you can take a break back with
you a moment on NewsRadio Wham eleven eighty.

It was a call in the in the middle of

Speaker 2 (09:42):
Blue Eyed Ellie had taken a golf club to the

at any rate knocked off a tooth. That's not good
a young girl, teenager about to get out of high school. So,
to be honest with you, I had heard ads for
Elmwood DNL Group and so I reached out. I knew
(10:06):
they had the Smile Center there. I knew they are
the best. I said, is what do we do? Can
you help? And they took right care for like that.
That's the underlying nature and commitment of the Elmwood Dental Group.
They look after people, and the Rochester Hybridge at the
elmwoodn Group that's their dental implant practice where that same
(10:26):
culture is absolutely extant. They take care of people, They
look after you. They always have your best interest in

Speaker 3 (10:54):
Here are three questions most people can't answer.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
Who controls your.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
Fairly minor press really from the Rochester Police Department or
a response to a reporter's question which was sent back
by an RPD lieutenant, it said and they wrote this
in the middle of the night last night, good morning.
The Rochester Police Department is investigating a shooting that occurred
(11:18):
in the area of the one hundred block at de
Pew Street and Grover Street on August tenth, twenty twenty six.
That's approximately two five am. Rochester Police officers responded to
the area following a single shot spotter activation and a
report of a male shot. Upon arrival, officers located a
twenty three year.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
Old Rochester resident.
Speaker 2 (11:40):
It continues on and non life threatening, but you know,
pretty big deal. He's at the hospital. The reason I
bring this up is because this whole thing arises out
of a shot spotter activation. It's a technology it hears
when a gun is just charged in the city of Rochester.
(12:02):
It's able to I don't know if triangulation is exactly
the technology that they use, but it's able to locate
where a sound originates from they can pinpoint it and
then they will dispatch officers out to where that shot
was taken and they will do it like immediately, right
(12:23):
go here, there's gunfire. And in this situation and in
countless other situations, that allows first responders to get to
a place right after someone is shot. I mean when
you get shot, of course, one you're in a bad situation,
but two your situation is getting worse by the moment. Okay,
(12:46):
you are bleeding out, you're going into shot.
Speaker 1 (12:48):
Who knows what, right.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
But the passing of time it works against you, and
shot spotter lets bang people get there. Class this morning early,
this young man is at the hospital getting treatment, was
able to very quickly get the assistance of you know,
the police are there and then the fire and ambulance
(13:11):
and off to the hospital. This young man was able
to get that assistance because of this technology. I only
mention it because you know, we have a lot of
folks who don't like the police, and we have, unfortunately
some politicians and that's kind of their stock in trade
aiding on the police.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
Well, in some.
Speaker 2 (13:33):
Other cities to include in upstate New York, the activists
are against shot Spotter. They say that it over polices
minority neighborhoods, that it criminalizes non criminal conduct, that it's
too much of Big Brother listening in, And you know,
(13:53):
I would just politely say.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
This is bunk.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
It lets you know if a gun has gone off,
that's it right. It's not peering down your ear, it's
not stealing your DNA, it's not violating your privacy. But
it is time and time and time again letting police
know where violence is happening right now. And it also
allows people who got shot. This young man twenty three
(14:17):
years of age. He was conscious when they got there,
and that's positive. But how many times are people shot
they're not conscious, they have no way to summon help,
Nobody knows about them except for that shot spotter. And
there's also right now a lot of pushback in other
places against license plate readers. There's a one company, one
(14:40):
brand of license plate reader is Flock Cameras, and you know,
kind of the national we hate cop people are pushing
back hard against these flock cameras. And I would just
politely say that we've had on here last week the
Greece police chief acting chief talking about what those license
(15:01):
plate readers have done for his department.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
They're a useful thing.
Speaker 2 (15:06):
Defund the police is not a phrase that a lot
of you know, the progressive activists start using right now. However,
you know they will achieve their end by other means.
And if you can limit and restrict police technologies, if
you can hamstring officers and departments, then you will have
(15:30):
achieved your goal of pushing back against the police. And
you know here it's well, we're not asking you to
hate the cops right now. We did that before and
we'll do that again later. We're asking you to hate
the technology that the cops choose, technology that protects.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
People and saves lives.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
I say that they're not asking you to hate the
police right now, I misspeak, because of course they are
asking you to hate the federal police engaged in immigration
these you know, anyway.
Speaker 1 (16:04):
We'll shut up. We talked about that a lot. Uh.
Speaker 2 (16:08):
President Trump is spending sending his son in law Jared
Kushner and his friend mister Wycoff now to Russia to
you know, negotiate or see if there's not some possibility
of peace there with Ukraine. And you know, I know
that President Trump has confidence in uh, mister Wykoff and
(16:32):
mister Kushner. But in addition to confidence, it's also good.
Speaker 1 (16:39):
If you could have results.
Speaker 2 (16:41):
And you know, in the State Department, we you know,
the traditional negotiators or whatever, most of those lost their
job under Doge. And so the emissary of the president
has become his son in law and this man uh Wyckoff,
And you know that's a presence progative. That's fine, it's
(17:02):
his business right, not ours to decide who represents him.
But we've had a year and a half and all
this peacemaking we're going to do just hasn't taken place yet.
And you know, if you're playing sports and you have
a you know, like a certain number of hockey players
(17:23):
out there and you're not quite again done, you'll mix
that up. Same with any other sport. And you just
wonder people in positions for a year and a half
without really being successful, is it not maybe time to
think of you move the pieces around a little bit,
send somebody else over there.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (17:44):
We'll take a break because it's time for news with

well yesterday?
Speaker 3 (20:32):
Uh yeah for the most part.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
Okay, very good.
Speaker 2 (20:34):
Do you have any thought on there's a lot of
attention focused of late to some of these new candidates,
the gentleman out of Michigan in the Democratic Party are
what phenomenon is is going on here?
Speaker 1 (20:47):
Do you think.
Speaker 3 (20:49):
People are sick and tired of politics as usual and
are voting for something different? That's what's going on here
in both those races.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
It's decidedly different. It's not a random difference, though, I mean,
is there is there a rising new direction of the
Democratic Party?
Speaker 3 (21:09):
There's there's really three different versions of the Democratic Party.
There's the there's the blue dog kind of super moderate Democrat.
There's the left of center progressives, and then there's the
socialist wing. There's like three sectors, and they're kind of
all at war with each other.
Speaker 1 (21:27):
Are there very many Blue Dogs anymore?
Speaker 3 (21:29):
There's a few still around.
Speaker 1 (21:32):
I can't really think of any off the top of
my head.
Speaker 3 (21:34):
There's a few down of Florida. John Fetterman's kind of
becoming then, Okay, that's in Pennsylvania.
Speaker 2 (21:40):
Ftterman's a good point would Where's where's Governor Hokele in this?
Speaker 1 (21:44):
Do you think on that spectrum.
Speaker 3 (21:46):
Sir, she would be one of those left of center progressives.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
Yeah, it is the fight. Then are the blue dogs?
They're not consequential? Are they not really the fight between the.
Speaker 3 (22:00):
Day day day day day day weigh in and say
things outside of that. Not really?
Speaker 1 (22:04):
Yeah, and they they are.
Speaker 2 (22:07):
They can be blue dogs or they are blue dogs
because of the politics of their region or state.
Speaker 3 (22:12):
Yes, yeah, more or less.
Speaker 1 (22:14):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
In the move between the very progressives and the left
of centers, is it just a coincidence that the left
that the real progressives have had a good run, or
is there some larger theme there you think?
Speaker 3 (22:29):
I think people want to move away from what they
see as establishment politics. What basically, basically what the primary
voter see is we gave these establishment with people the
rains during the Biden years and Trump came back. It
didn't work, so now let's do it our way. That's
(22:53):
that's kind of the calculation.
Speaker 2 (22:55):
I think the New York has been You would expect
at New York would have been benefited, and may it
may have been benefited is a question. We've had the
top Democrat in the Senate and the top Democrat in
the House New York State has have Have those two
things been consequential or beneficial to the state, do you think.
Speaker 3 (23:16):
To an extent, Yes, Chuck Schumer is very good at
bringing home the bacon, so to speak. I'm not exactly
sure what inpact Jefferies has really had.
Speaker 2 (23:28):
It's it's I wonder if he's ever actually been in charge.
I know he's the boss, but that Speaker Emerita thing,
I think that's a she has a great deal of influence.
Speaker 3 (23:39):
She does. But in any event, she's retiring at the
end of this year, so we'll we'll we'll get to see,
especially since he's extremely likely to be Speaker of House,
what kind of power he what kind of power he's
actually able to wield.
Speaker 1 (23:52):
Here's what I would I'd put a little proviso on there.
Speaker 2 (23:55):
He may be he may have a pretty good chance,
or there may be a really good chance the Democrats
will be the minority or the majority rather in the
House after January. But is it is it a lock
that Hakim Jeffries is still their leader? Then yes, because
I mean for him, yeah.
Speaker 3 (24:14):
Schumer may have more of a problem.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
Though Schumer seems almost to be detested.
Speaker 3 (24:19):
Yes, the rhetoric he might have a challenge.
Speaker 2 (24:22):
The rhetoric against Schumer is strong in January with that
new Congress, who might challenge him to lead the Democrats.
Speaker 3 (24:30):
Uh, there's there's been uh swirlings around Chris Murphy that
he might be a challenge to Schumer and that he
might get a decent amount of support.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
Chris Murphy is an intelligent person. I don't know about him.
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (24:50):
Like Schumer almost defines political operative in my month, I
don't know where Murphy stands in regard to that. Corey
Booker's prominence in the Democratic Party.
Speaker 3 (25:02):
He's prominent, but he's not really super super prominent.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
He's always been And I don't mean this as insult
because I actually like Corey Booker quite a bit. He's
always been like second tier.
Speaker 3 (25:14):
Yes, he wants to be Obama, but he's not really Obama.
Speaker 2 (25:19):
Yeah, there are some aspects of him and his story
that I like far better than Obama's story, But Obama, again,
I'm not a big fan of.
Speaker 1 (25:32):
It.
Speaker 2 (25:32):
Was from an intellectual standpoint, intelligence standpoint, a political planning standpoint,
very very strong, and Corey Booker in those areas may
not be as strong. Yes, yeah, but you your prediction
is House for sure, House for sure and Senate maybe yeah,
(25:53):
Senate maybe.
Speaker 3 (25:54):
I think that they're definitely, they're definitely winning North Carolina.
I think even Republicans have thrown in the towel on
that one. It's looking it's gonna be it's a toss
up in Maine. But it's the reason this pulls out
(26:17):
kind of good for for Jackson. Ohio is looking good
for Sharrod Brown, which will kind of be in the
which will kind of be a pie in the feat
of Trump if Sharrod Brown ends up beating Husted over there,
because they would have had that seat for another bunch
of years had they not have pulled Vance out. And
then uh, and then the race in Alaska between Mary
(26:41):
Prolsa and Dan Sulivan is looking increasingly good for us.
And then and then and then the and then the
Texas race is very close again because of again, because
of candidate quality on the part of the Republicans.
Speaker 2 (26:56):
Because your who's your who's your Democrat guy down there,
the minister whatever, Yes, James Trico. Yeah, in a in
a different universe or a different day, I don't think
he would stand much of a chance.
Speaker 3 (27:07):
It was Cornan, he wouldn't stand much of a chance.
But because it's Ken Paxton, Paxton who was deeply flawed,
deeply flaught. He almost got impeached from his job is
Attorney General by his own party. That's how flawed he is.
Speaker 2 (27:22):
Yeah, but that's a situation where you know not to
throw stones at him. But Trump insisted on getting revenge
and that may well cost that seat. Yes, about that,
And here's the thing, you know we all have to
reviewse I thought Cornyn.
Speaker 1 (27:37):
Was a rational person.
Speaker 3 (27:38):
He was.
Speaker 1 (27:39):
Yeah, he's a fine senator, does a good job. The
Michigan guy.
Speaker 3 (27:47):
That's gonna be interesting race. I think LSA it's gonna
win that.
Speaker 1 (27:52):
If he does, that will be a thunderclap.
Speaker 3 (27:53):
I think it'll be off the strength of the gubernatorial
ticket and because it's it's going to be such a
them leading environment because they have street straight ticket voting
up there. Yeah, yeah, but I think he but I
think he'll he'll he'll beat Rogers.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (28:11):
Which of the New York gubernatorial polls do you believe?
Not by name but by rough percentage?
Speaker 3 (28:17):
Uh? The Santa Pole is more I think more realistic.
Speaker 1 (28:21):
It's it's had about twenty points.
Speaker 3 (28:23):
I think she'll win by about ten.
Speaker 2 (28:26):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (28:28):
Well, and she was it six or what was it
six or seven against Lee Zelden. I don't recall to you.
Speaker 3 (28:35):
It was it was yeah, some we're around there.
Speaker 2 (28:36):
Yeah, well, there you go. Any chance Republicans hold the line.
Speaker 3 (28:45):
Uh, it's not very good right now unless this war
comes to and I wrote real quickly in our favor,
I will give you this. I will give you this.
There is one bit of good news for Republicans in Wisconsin.
If Hong wins the primary there for for governor, the
Republicans will win that seat.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
Hong is a you know, doesn't like Thanksgiving, doesn't like
white people. She you know, she's quite a you know,
very distinctive, very very strong flavor.
Speaker 3 (29:14):
Yes she is. She is so far off the reservation
that even Bernie Sanders said he's not going to endorse her.
Speaker 1 (29:20):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (29:21):
So if so, if so, if she wins that primary
for governor, I think the Republicans are probably gonna win
that one. So so there you go.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
Let me throw this to you and I history and everything,
you know, mid term election, extremely unpopular president underwater two
to one. You'd say, oh, yeah, the opposing party wins big.
Speaker 1 (29:43):
But what about this? Every place by.
Speaker 2 (29:45):
Both parties has been so jerry mandered that it really
doesn't matter. I'm a Republican, I'm voting for a Republican,
or I'm a Democrat. I'm voting for a Democrat. And
there may not be much movement, particularly House.
Speaker 1 (30:00):
What do you think about that?
Speaker 3 (30:01):
In most states there won't be a lot of movement,
But because Republicans have such a slim majority in the
House Representatives, there are still enough toss up seats to
flip that.
Speaker 2 (30:15):
Yeah, no one in our region, no one before the
Hudson River with any chance of changing parties this House election.
Speaker 3 (30:23):
No, probably not.
Speaker 2 (30:24):
Yeah, real quick, I don't We're late and people don't care.
New York is it twenty one? Replacing Alista Fanic Constantino
versus the dairy farmer Constino, little goofy.
Speaker 3 (30:36):
Your thoughts there, Well, the Democrats seem to think that
there's a chance, because they're starting to put in money
up there. Yeah, I don't necessarily think there's a chance,
but they seem to think there's a chance, which is interesting. Yeah,
so they must have some pulling that shows that race
being closer than I think it might be.
Speaker 2 (30:56):
Yeah, it's an interesting kind of deal. And how's Trump
doing terrible? Yeah it is, Yeah, it's uh, it's the
bright rays of sunshine the last few weeks and kind
of fear.
Speaker 3 (31:08):
Barely got a tretty general nominee.
Speaker 1 (31:10):

Speaker 3 (31:27):
There's something wrong with these people called radio way.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
I mean a.
Speaker 2 (31:32):
State planning, yes, is for when you die. It also
includes some legal preparations for should you become incapacitated, should
you not be able to make your own medical decisions,
or something like that. Who takes care of what?

One of the areas especialty is a state plan. Now
here's the thing.
Speaker 2 (32:02):
They're nice people, but your what counts, your loved ones

protects them. Okay, this is about me and this is

Eighty We're two two two eleven eighty one night hundred
two ninety five eleven eighty Wou'd be good to get
you on real quick first, So if I could, I'd
like to say we had that such yesterday where at
the motel down in Henrietta. God bless the man and
his family and his memory and his friends.
Speaker 1 (33:07):
But it looks like it may have been a.
Speaker 2 (33:11):
Cop assisted suicide or suicide by cop, whatever they call it.
And a heartbreaking situation. The phone call comes in, there's
a suicidal man here. He's got a box cutter. He's
threatened to hurt himself. So the deputies go and the
gentleman who knows what he's going through, who knows what
his difficulty is. But the paradigm changes and now he's
(33:33):
trying to hurt the deputies. And we haven't received all
the details yet, we don't know the information.
Speaker 1 (33:37):
But a situation.
Speaker 2 (33:38):
Developed where, of course a box cutter can kill you, right,
A box cutter across the throat has probably killed more
people than anything other than firearms in this country period, Right,
And there is this dangerous situation created, and the officers
were compelled to use their firearms. Please keep them your
(34:00):
thoughts and prayers. And again, his family and friends and
obviously recognize that sad loss of life. But this situation
created by the gentleman who's passed on, and it is
a situation which has the potential to be a professional
and emotional and spiritual burden for those officers, those two
(34:20):
deputies who woke up yesterday morning and went to work,
leaving their families behind with no other thought or wish
than to serve and protect. And sometimes the price of
their service is very high, emotionally, physically, spiritually, other ways.
And again, I'm sorry for the loss of this man's life,
(34:41):
but I hope that you'll remember the deputies in your prayers.
They'll be investigations, and the Attorney General's investigation, which could
go you know, six months or a year, will hang
over their head until it is resolved.
Speaker 1 (34:57):
Hello, you're on news radio.
Speaker 4 (34:59):
Wham a.
Speaker 5 (35:01):
All the news that spit to print for as long
as the news is woke.
Speaker 2 (35:07):
That's the way newspapers kind of cut their own throat
by abandoning the values of most of their readers. But
the real thing that killed newspapers was because newspapers have
been liberal for a long long time and been making
money hand over fist. It was online advertising. It wasn't
(35:28):
the transmission of news. It was the advertising. Online ads,
Craigslist maybe most particularly, took revenue out of newspapers. And
any business that doesn't have money coming in the door
is not going to have those doors open very long.
Speaker 1 (35:44):
I need to run.
Speaker 2 (35:45):
God bless you keep your chin up, and God bless
the United States of America. News is next, then you know,
