On this episode of Crowder Bits: A Crowder Podcast, we have a special guest on the show to talk about the new laws passed by the Supreme Court of Canada, COVID, and why it's a crime against humanity.
00:08:04.000My wife will be coming home today and we'll be talking about her experience at the hospital and how it relates to COVID, the new rules, and why it is a crime against humanity.
00:09:04.000I mean, you know, what I really want to know is, you know, when we talk about socialism, people are like, oh, look at these socialist countries, and then when you point out the flaws, they're like, well, they just need to do it right.
00:09:13.000So then you just go, okay, great, point me to a society that doesn't have police.
00:09:25.000I guess it goes to the point where you not only can't use a National Guard, but you have to send in the federal military because there's no local police departments?
00:10:01.000So my question today is, do you think we should disband the police?
00:10:05.000And I feel crazy saying that, but if I'd have made this argument and told you that nine city council women and men, I assume a lot of women, would actually vote to completely disband the police in Minneapolis, you would say, well, this is the thing.
00:11:37.000Just in case you think we're being extreme here, that's a straw man.
00:11:40.000Quite literally, we've talked about in this show, just rewind a little bit, hit the rewind button on YouTube, which will probably bring you to John Oliver, so you probably have to actually go through the channel.
00:12:11.000We've joked about it in the past, but with the surgical mask on, she really looks like that scene in The Dark Knight where the Joker just blows it up and walks away.
00:12:21.000Okay, so we are going to get some information, some facts on disbanding the police, but first, actually, our wonderful editor here, formerly intern Evan Brendan, from what I understand, Audio Wade, we've sent him out.
00:12:35.000So, obviously with all of the, you know, economic downturn, some industries that may have, you know, May have been on the way out already, are now dead or dying, right?
00:12:46.000So one of those is the payphone industry.
00:12:49.000It's been on the way out for a while, but yeah, again.
00:12:52.000So yeah, we decided to send Brendan out and see if he can find a payphone.
00:12:56.000Yeah, basically see if he can find a payphone so we can support him.
00:12:59.000Yeah, we can support him, support the payphones, support our local businesses.
00:13:03.000And unfortunately, payphones, phone booths, one of the first targets for looting.
00:13:08.000And I take some blame because You know, allegedly look like Clark Kent, according to street vandals.
00:13:31.000Remember they said it was absolutely absurd to not wear a mask?
00:13:35.000And this is one of those things I'll be talking about a little bit later, the COVID related stuff with my wife.
00:13:39.000When people say you're anti-science, this happened, we had three or four different doctors, four different diagnoses, two of whom were desperately trying to tie it to COVID.
00:13:50.000Were people anti-science when the CDC said, don't wear a mask?
00:13:54.000And they said, well, maybe we should wear a mask.
00:13:56.000Or were they anti-science when the CDC said, you have to wear a mask?
00:13:59.000And they said, hold on a second, I don't necessarily think that's going to work.
00:14:01.000Were they anti-science when the CDC and the World Health Organization said the death rate could be anywhere from 2% to 7%?
00:14:07.000I think the average was somewhere around 4%.
00:14:09.000Or are they anti-science when they don't believe it now that it's 0.2 something percent?
00:14:14.000The point is, when people say settled science, that's not an actual thing.
00:14:18.000Especially not in a case like this, right?
00:14:19.000And by the way, I'd be fine with him supporting Africa.
00:14:21.000I just don't think he actually believes it.
00:16:14.000And Brendan had his hair, it was really long, I think he did get it trimmed, though it's weird that he chose that as a cut off.
00:16:21.000I was walking behind him in the hallway and he had the beige jacket, and it was kind of, because he's had knee surgery, so he was lumbering, and his hair was frizzing out, and I said, he looks actually physically retarded.
00:16:32.000He was walking like this in a beige jacket with hair, and he was holding something, I think probably some big raw spaghetti he probably planned on cooking.
00:16:54.000Let's ask you more generally, because I know most of you will say, well, no, I don't believe in completely disbanding the police.
00:16:58.000That's what Black Lives Matter believes in, and that's what Minnesota, that's what Minneapolis is actually talking about doing.
00:17:02.000Now, I understand there might be some middle ground, and you might be saying, defund the police to a certain degree, or implement some kind of performance-based financial incentives.
00:17:11.000That is not what Minneapolis is talking about at all.
00:17:14.000I want to be very clear, and just like CNN used to claim to be, just the facts.
00:17:20.000Uh, so, let's, uh, get to a real- I think we have a clip.
00:17:22.000The, uh, the far left- Oh my god, look at- Let's go to CNN really quickly.
00:20:17.000I danced in that one video, didn't you see me?
00:20:19.000Now this is why you don't kneel to the mob, because long before you get to the kneel, long before you get to, like he's playing Plinko on Price is Right.
00:22:12.000Because if not, then they probably were the people who didn't do anything about the police before.
00:22:16.000But now you're relying on them to make the decisions.
00:22:20.000It's as if the existing government, maybe you shouldn't rely on those folks anymore who are predominantly leftists and are not actually doing anything for the safety.
00:22:46.000Let's replace the police with social workers in Minneapolis, which, let me be really clear, Minneapolis is the most dangerous city in the state, consistently ranked one of the most dangerous in the United States of America, with a violent crime rate of 1,101 per 100,000 people.
00:23:00.000hundred thousand people. That's a significant amount of crime. We see what happens here
00:23:07.000when police don't enforce curfew with the right. There was curfew and the police said
00:23:12.000we're not going to enforce it, which CNN condemned them for.
00:23:14.000And then of course they get tear gassed and rubber bulleted and later on down the line, or
00:23:18.000if Donald Trump wants to take a photo up at a church. Tear gassed like, I'm going to go
00:23:23.000dad and hold the Bible. It burns. It's not just like this is something that's
00:23:31.000happening there and that protesters are saying this in other places.
00:23:34.000Defunding has already been proposed and I think said it's going to happen in Los Angeles and also de Blasio just came out and said he's going to defund the NYPD as well.
00:24:27.000Because this is one of those things where people talk about common ground.
00:24:30.000I don't know how you find common ground with people who want to entirely disband the police.
00:24:34.000But let me propose something because, okay, as an adult who owns property, I generally tend to like cops.
00:24:41.000I've had mostly positive interactions outside of Lansing, where we've talked about this, where they said I couldn't file a police report by phone.
00:25:38.000That means, let's start incorporating pull-ups into the fitness test.
00:25:42.000Let's start incorporating actually subduing a violent aggressor, because you know what happens if you're not strong and you're not capable, and let's say you're a sexism relief hire, so people bring in a woman, and we have a video here that we personally videotaped If you're not capable to handle somebody physically, you have to resort to a weapon.
00:26:09.000It's for that same reason I think women should be carrying firearms.
00:26:12.000That women are the most vulnerable among us, and they need to be able to protect themselves.
00:26:16.000But with the police force, we want people who can handle physical altercations without having to resort to a firearm.
00:26:21.000So why, oh why, would we lower PT requirements?
00:26:25.000In the police force or the military, which is what we have been consistently doing.
00:26:29.000Yeah, well, I mean, tell me, I don't know what the stats are on this, and so I'm just gonna throw it out there, like, what, what do you think?
00:26:39.000No, I know, but I'm just saying, like, theoretically, like, pick a number.
00:26:41.000Okay, so you're telling me that 70 or 80 or 90% of our system is functioning well, and you want to get rid of the entire system To fix that 10 or 20... Do you understand how difficult it is to bring in a new system and make it work?
00:26:53.000Look at this guy, he says genocide is functioning well.
00:28:24.000And I think most folks, especially everyone in the rest of the world that copies our culture, our technology, our everything, says that we're mostly doing it right.
00:28:31.000That's not to say that there's some parts that are wrong.
00:28:33.000And I would say in Minneapolis, if they decide and their citizens and their leaders decide that they want to invoke the experiment of no police and more social workers, then I'm praying that it succeeds.
00:28:46.000Mainly because I'm scared about the other side of it, about what will happen.
00:28:50.000And a note for anyone in the state of Minnesota, or particularly the Twin Cities, I-35 runs straight to Texas and you can come here.
00:28:58.000You want to see a place become like Detroit overnight where people move out and wild animals take over?
00:29:26.000And look, we've been proven wrong, okay, right?
00:29:29.000I mean, I can't think of any examples, but...
00:29:31.000I can tell you, you're talking about a group of people, today's left, left-right dichotomy, because there's only one party today, the Democratic Party, that wants to disarm you, that believes you have no private citizen has a right to own firearms whatsoever.
00:29:45.000Look at the Heller DC case, that is the actual arguments, the dissenting arguments, and they want to, many people want to disband the police.
00:29:51.000Now not all Democrats, including Doogie Mayer there in Minneapolis, but That is the expressed mission statement of Black Lives Matter in Antifa.
00:30:00.000These, even the peaceful protests, really which means during the day until curfew comes in, right, for a couple of hours, even the peaceful portions of the protests, their expressed mission statement is to disband the police before they start They're breaking shit!
00:30:14.000So let's be clear, they're not going forward saying, hey, we want to get rid of the blue wall of signs, we want to dissolve the police unions, hey, we believe there should be more accountability.
00:30:22.000That's why the Minneapolis City Council here have decided to pledge to defund, completely disband the police, and replace them with social workers.
00:30:30.000We need to be clear when you are talking, what are you opposed to?
00:31:12.000Is it any wonder that people that listen to CNN and Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson and President Barack Obama when he was in office Is it any wonder that they think, oh man, you have just as good a chance of being shot by a cop as being helped by a cop?
00:31:25.000Is it any wonder that after listening to decades of that, that they want to disband the police?
00:31:29.000Is it any wonder that that kind of rhetoric is out there saying every cop is racist essentially?
00:31:59.000Listen, if you're a police officer, a part of your job is staying in shape and physically capable, just like it is for an athlete.
00:32:06.000That is a part of your job so that you should be able to handle Any very physical altercation that comes your way.
00:32:12.000Case in point, when we used to work at our old office, Johnny Boy and I just happened to stumble across this video of a black man, sorry, I just have to say it so you don't see it, and then say, why didn't you say it?
00:32:24.000Now the video you're about to see is after he punched one of the officers once, they start cuffing him, and then he punches another officer again.
00:32:30.000It took, I think, four officers you'll see in this video, one of whom is a woman who stands back like, I don't know!
00:32:35.000To tase him and subdue him, let's roll this clip here.
00:32:40.000So this was just us on the corner of a street.
00:32:42.000At this point, he'd already struck a police officer.
00:32:45.000And that's right there, that happens again.
00:32:47.000Until finally, you see, look, they're not able to subdue this person.
00:32:50.000So if you cannot subdue a person right there, if you're not capable of cuffing him and subduing him physically, what happens?
00:32:55.000Then you have to resort to, in this case, a taser.
00:32:59.000Four officers there, they can't physically subdue them, so they resort to a taser.
00:33:27.000This might have been a year and a half ago.
00:33:29.000So this is, by the way, I want to be clear because this is the statistic of where you're talking about if that man had been fatally shot, he would be one of the nine unarmed black men shot fatally by police officers.
00:34:22.000That was right, I think that might have been right on the concrete lip there before it was going into the sidewalk.
00:34:28.000No one wants to be in the nightly news because that is part of the statistic where you talk about, and we'll talk We'll talk about that more tomorrow.
00:34:33.000All these Black Lives Matter examples, like Scurlock, the man who ran over a protester, where now there actually are eyewitness testimonies, and I believe some footage of him trying to swerve to avoid a protester who was trying to get hit.
00:34:43.000The point is, the statistics are not genocide, because it's 9, 19 white guys.
00:34:49.000Again, genocide would be specifically targeting someone of a specific race.
00:34:52.000And in this instance, you need to understand that would be a part of the statistic, because he was unarmed.
00:34:57.000But if he got shot at that point, in this case it was a taser, do you really think that that's genocide?
00:35:03.000Does that really mean that those police officers in that video, who we just happened to catch on videotape, went out today to lynch somebody?
00:37:07.000Because nobody can say that that police officer, yet no evidence has come out to say he was a racist and he was out to get himself a black man like Maxine Waters said.
00:37:33.000Again, let's preface this all by something we've repeated ad nauseum.
00:37:38.000Of course George Floyd should not have died in police custody.
00:37:41.000I don't know if the knee in the neck is what killed him.
00:37:42.000It depends on which autopsy we're talking about.
00:37:44.000But it doesn't matter because if someone can't breathe and if someone is suffering in the custody of police officers, it is their duty to protect and serve and they should try and get you medical attention.
00:37:54.000So like I said, it could not be less relevant.
00:37:58.000George Floyd should not be dead from that interaction.
00:38:01.000Now, while we're talking about Mama Mama, Someone Lost Their Mother, it is interesting to me when we say black lives matter, and we don't talk about the black lives that matter that really should be exalted most.
00:38:12.000We've talked about David Dorn, but I think that we need to get into it a little bit more because context matters, and I think we're sending a horrible message to young children in this country, including young black children, when we paint a mural for a George Floyd and no one, I checked up on it, no one at CNN, MSNBC, NBC ever even mentioned David Dorn.
00:38:31.000While we're talking about role models and truth being swept under the rug, this comparison matters because these are both black men who, well, one served the black community and protected them.
00:38:43.000George Floyd robbed many people in the black community for most of his life.
00:38:46.000But both are members of the black community who were killed.
00:38:49.000And both are related, of course, to these riots and looting.
00:38:52.000One, pre-riot and looting, the reason for it.
00:38:54.000And one, trying to protect a fellow black neighborhood member.
00:38:59.000I think we have a video here of George Floyd versus David Dornan.
00:39:03.000So, when they say, why do you burn down the community?
00:39:06.000Why do you burn down your own neighborhood?
00:39:43.000Because this has resulted in more deaths and more businesses destroyed and lives destroyed in the black community than police brutality last year.
00:40:06.000But this idea, too, they go on the media and they always heroize these people.
00:40:10.000Let's be really clear, did not deserve to die at the hands of the police officer, but George Floyd spent a huge portion of his adult life in prison, I believe 10 plus years for violent crimes.
00:40:19.000The worst of which was specifically targeting a pregnant woman because she was pregnant.
00:40:25.000I don't know people who are more vulnerable than pregnant ladies.
00:40:26.000We have handicapped spaces and expectant mother spaces, jammed a pistol into her gut to That is a level of evil that, short of rape, I can't begin to comprehend.
00:40:44.000That is indicative of a character flaw so deep, it's like if a dog bites a child out of the blue, you go, I don't know if I can ever trust that person again.
00:40:53.000Someone who takes a loaded gun and aims it to a woman's baby and says, don't scream while my buddies pistol-whip you and take all your shit.
00:41:20.000We're talking about an area that is pretty mixed.
00:41:22.000He specifically served his community with honor for over 30 years until he retired, became a police chief in a smaller town.
00:41:29.000And then while While Black Lives Matter activists were rioting, looting, and targeting people in their own communities as she just said, David Dorn showed up to protect them and was shot dead by another black man and no one ever utters his name in the media.
00:41:48.000If we're going to paint a mural, why not David Dorn?
00:41:51.000And by the way, if you want some kind of police reform that people can actually get on board with, who is going to be more helpful than a respected member of his entire community who has been in the police force for over 30 years?
00:42:02.000That's the ally you want if you want to protect your neighborhood and you shot him dead and demanded that everyone swipe it under the rug.
00:42:11.000And what we're saying here is like, look, it's okay if you want to, if George Floyd is a symbol of, hey, police brutality should not be happening in America, fine, paint that mural.
00:42:30.000Is it white people killing black people?
00:42:32.000Is it black people killing black people?
00:42:34.000The information, it's not what matters.
00:42:35.000It's just 15 to 20% of the police force are black.
00:42:38.000When you take over 700,000 Americans who are employed by the police force and a much higher percentage of black people employed in that area of employment than most areas of employment and significantly higher of a percentage than the black population in America at large, again, just like looting and rioting and burning these neighborhoods that I understand this lady said she didn't care about because she's on board with Trevor Noah, you are disproportionately attacking black men and women who serve their communities.
00:43:09.000Dissolve police unions, hire PT requirements, and if you want to bring someone to the table, how about we bring black police officers who... You know what, too?
00:43:16.000You know, I think there probably are... There's probably a significantly higher portion of black Americans who serve in the police force than the general population at large.
00:43:24.000Because they probably look at their communities from people like that who say, let's burn it down.
00:43:35.000It's almost like when you go to church, and someone gets up there to be baptized, and they have a testimony, and I was addicted to crack, and I was selling heroin, and then I found Jesus.
00:43:44.000No one actually cares to bring up the person at church who says, well, you know what, I was actually raised in a good Christian household, stayed in the straight and narrow, and you know, I always had my doubts, but I still serve God in my community.
00:43:54.000No one cares that guy doesn't get a mural when those are the people who we should be emulating.
00:43:59.000It doesn't mean that we're perfect, but don't heroize someone who committed acts of evil that are incomprehensible, like George Floyd didn't deserve to die.
00:44:08.000Not a good guy if you look at his history as an adult.
