Summary
Rebel News is looking for help upgrading a piece of equipment that has been in the company for years, and it's not working any longer. We need a new TriCaster, and we're going to need it fast.
Transcript
00:00:00.000
Hi everybody, Ezra Levant here. How are you doing? Thanks for joining us.
00:00:25.500
When I was last with you on Wednesday at noon, we had a series of hiccups with a piece of hardware called a TriCaster.
00:00:36.980
That's the brand name of it. TriCasters, at least the device we have from them, basically is our studio in a box I've heard it described as.
00:00:47.360
It takes the video feed. It allows us to add in a Skype feed. It allows us to show graphics. It's connected to the digital backdrop you see behind me.
00:01:00.700
So for that to go down was a serious business. And I think we had three hiccups on Wednesday.
00:01:08.480
So we had to rush out and get a new TriCaster, which is so important. It's almost like a new engine in the car.
00:01:18.520
It's that important. It sort of works everything else.
00:01:21.340
Now yesterday, we hadn't quite hooked it all up yet because we got a great TriCaster.
00:01:26.560
It's actually an improvement, you can imagine, in six years, the advancements in audio-video technology.
00:01:32.880
Anyways, $38,000 for that new piece of hardware. Just shocking.
00:01:41.520
But when I think back to Sun News Network of how the control room was, I remember we had a million-dollar studio.
00:01:50.340
It really was a million dollars. The cameras alone were a quarter million dollars each.
00:01:53.960
They were robot cameras. This was 10 years ago.
00:01:57.440
The big over-the-shoulder cameras were over $100,000.
00:02:00.120
And it's just incredible what we can do with a fraction of that now.
00:02:04.880
And so although I think $38,000 is a lot of money for a piece of hardware called a TriCaster,
00:02:11.000
when I think back at Sun News, what it replaced, five people in a control room,
00:02:17.060
each one working a different piece of hardware, it actually is a miracle.
00:02:21.000
Now, my colleagues, Efron Monsanto, our head of video, and Mocha Bazirgen, our chief videographer,
00:02:28.680
they, along with Justin, made the decision of what we needed,
00:02:34.160
and we need a couple of other computers that are getting old, too.
00:02:38.560
So Mocha and Efron put together the following video of...
00:02:43.000
We're going to crowdfund it. That's what we do.
00:02:51.620
Here's a video that Mocha and Efron did yesterday.
00:03:02.160
We're here to tell you that we need your help once again.
00:03:09.480
It's been working for the last six years, but it's not working any longer.
00:03:14.680
If you were watching our live streams, you must have noticed that we were running into issues during live stream.
00:03:21.340
And this TriCaster has been in the company before he even joined as an intern back in 2017.
00:03:26.140
This actually filmed the election night coverage that Ezra had in 2015.
00:03:32.560
This has been through a lot of iconic rebel moments.
00:03:35.880
Remember the time that David was arrested in Brampton for bringing you to the other side?
00:03:42.820
And welcome to this very special emergency live stream.
00:03:49.080
My friend and colleague, David Menzies, beloved by many public interest journalists, was just arrested.
00:03:55.520
And also remember when you were holding the phone to your face instead of recording the action?
00:04:10.360
A lot of history in this TriCaster, all these live streams.
00:04:12.980
This actually films Ezra Levan's nightly show every weekday, Andrew's weekly show, and even David's show every week.
00:04:20.860
We're looking to upgrade our equipment to help bring you a better side of the story that you'll never see anywhere else.
00:04:31.300
This will help us increase our production value for live streaming.
00:04:34.240
We can stream up to eight different guests at the same time.
00:04:37.040
We can have online debates across the nation, just like we've done before.
00:04:41.760
You've seen Catherine's coverage throughout the pandemic all throughout Ontario.
00:04:44.700
You've seen Sydney's coverage when we sent them over to Manitoba to show you the other side of fight the fines
00:04:49.300
for some of the egregious lockdown arrests there.
00:04:52.540
You've seen Pastor Tim Stevens arrested in front of his family, recorded by our team, who were there at a moment's notice.
00:05:01.380
If you can provide us, once again, with the proper equipments, we can continue to do that.
00:05:06.380
Yeah, unlike the corporate press, we don't get a tax bailout to a tune of nearly $600 million every year.
00:05:13.260
We would never trade our integrity for views or for any other things.
00:05:16.460
You want to keep bringing you the other side of the story, and we want to be truthful to you, the Rebel viewer, who continuously watches us.
00:05:27.160
They're simply high-performance laptops to do field reporting.
00:05:30.080
While Mocha's on the field across the nation, he wants to be able to finish the report that same night.
00:05:34.640
And we're also looking to get desktop computers for our office workers to help increase their production efficiency as well.
00:05:42.440
They're simply just work computers to get them done.
00:05:46.640
They're going to cost a couple thousand each, but these will last several years at the bare minimum.
00:05:51.240
Then we're also looking for a new TriCaster, the Elite Edition.
00:05:55.580
And I know that sounds like a lot, but it's going to last quite a long time.
00:05:59.020
You've seen the troubles we've had with the live stream and some other stuff, and we want to make sure our production quality is top-notch.
00:06:04.600
You know we will never take government money like the CBC and our competitors do.
00:06:08.040
You forcibly have to pay for the CBC through your tax dollars, and you have no say in that.
00:06:12.860
You have a say to whether or not you want to help us and help bring you these stories, and no one else will.
00:06:24.980
It made me laugh just at the last minute there.
00:06:31.840
I said to Mocha yesterday, I'm glad to see his hair's growing back in.
00:06:40.880
Oh, so here's Mocha with some final thoughts to his video there.
00:06:44.580
Thanks to you, The Rebel Viewer, you make this possible.
00:06:48.880
Head over to ournewstudio.com and chip in if you can.
00:06:54.360
If you chip in for this, we're going to appreciate and we're going to produce high-quality content.
00:07:05.860
We're not going to take any legal action against you, unlike other media that are connected to the government.
00:07:12.400
We're not going to print any money to devalue your currency in your pocket, okay?
00:07:18.280
We're just, this is completely kosher, completely halal, completely voluntary, completely legal, completely okay.
00:07:33.560
And by the way, there's a lot of overlap because neither includes pork.
00:07:36.760
You know, we've got to have more of Mocha on screen.
00:07:48.040
But I just, you know, I follow him on Instagram.
00:08:03.300
And I'm really glad he came around to talking about government coercion.
00:08:11.460
And I was thrilled that Efron showed a little shot of him when he was a fresh-faced intern coming around to school.
00:08:20.000
I mean, now, Justin, you've been puttering around with the new hardware for a day or so.
00:08:25.820
What functionality does it have that our old TriCaster doesn't have?
00:08:30.740
I just want to tell you it's a big deal for us.
00:08:35.220
It's got multiple guests, multiple Skype guests, better transitions.
00:08:51.640
Well, I look forward to maybe, okay, well, maybe you can give me like a tour of it or something when we're all figuring it out
00:08:57.020
because I'd love to see some of that functionality.
00:08:58.960
So thank you to our team that managed to get that new piece of hardware really quick.
00:09:04.920
So sorry we didn't have our live stream yesterday, but it looks like it's working.
00:09:09.180
And thanks to Efron and Mocha for doing the crowdfunding pitch.
00:09:16.980
I've said for a while now that the worst thing about the lockdowns, well, I think the worst thing about the lockdowns
00:09:28.100
Other than that, I think the worst thing about the lockdowns is how it has rewired people's brains
00:09:34.000
to make them internalize the fear and the superstitions of lockdownism and to go beyond what the law says
00:09:45.140
and become little enforcers, little scolds, little informants, a little, you know, secret police for lockdownism.
00:09:56.520
Can you find that tweet I did yesterday about that guy who was talking about his wife?
00:10:11.160
But his wife was grocery shopping and she has a mask exemption.
00:10:19.800
She actually had an exemption, I presume, for medical reasons or whatever.
00:10:26.280
And the guy, a big guy, comes up to her and just gets in her grill, harasses her.
00:10:33.280
She was so scared, apparently, that she had to call her husband to come and rescue her.
00:10:43.060
And it's not much to see other than I want to show you the photograph of this guy.
00:10:51.460
Had to just pick up my distraught wife from Kohl's after this creep tried to stop her getting a trolley
00:10:59.020
and then followed her around taking photos of her for not wearing a mask,
00:11:07.680
I'm ropeable, which I presume is an Aussie way of saying really mad.
00:11:30.700
I said the first thing that I always note in these cases.
00:11:35.380
If he were truly afraid of your wife, he'd have run away from her.
00:11:41.660
If you saw someone on the street and someone said, and let's say they were coughing,
00:11:48.800
And if you believed them, would you run to them?
00:12:01.660
If he were truly afraid of your wife, he'd have run away from her.
00:12:06.340
Now, this is my own psychoanalysis, which I'm not very good at.
00:12:10.400
He's afraid, not of the disease, but of being scolded and bullied if he doesn't wear a mask.
00:12:20.600
So he wanted to do to her what he's afraid of someone doing to him.
00:12:24.340
He's managing his fears by transposing them onto her.
00:12:27.700
So what does he think will happen if he doesn't wear a mask?
00:12:40.760
These are all the reasons why he himself wears a mask.
00:12:46.480
Like I say, if he was truly afraid of this woman at a shopping center, at a grocery store, he would run away from her.
00:12:51.660
And so to justify his cowardice, to justify his decision to wear a mask, he has to make his fears real for that other person.
00:13:03.620
Otherwise, he just comes across as a scaredy cat.
00:13:06.520
So if no one else will scold her, shame her, marginalize her, arrest her, he's got to fill that role.
00:13:15.400
Because remember, that's his psychological justification for being a bit of a coward and submissive and complying and wearing a mask that he knows has nothing to do with help.
00:13:29.640
There has to be a social justification, a political justification, that I don't want to get in trouble justification.
00:13:34.860
And if this woman can live a counterexample by going about her business without those harsh hassles in schools,
00:13:43.880
then his justification, his rationale, his excusology for being a coward, wastes away.
00:13:52.520
If there is no comeuppance, if there's nothing that happens to her, then what's his excuse?
00:14:01.380
He desperately needs to say, well, I mean, he would say something different.
00:14:06.960
But he's really doing it because he doesn't want to be scolded or marginalized or hassled.
00:14:11.480
So if another person, a woman, and it's always a guy versus a gal, by the way, because he wants to play the role of police.
00:14:21.820
I mean, I found that very, it's just so classic.
00:14:24.620
Like, none of these scolds are actually afraid of the virus.
00:14:33.200
And then if you listen to them long enough, they always come around to saying,
00:14:43.920
But the answer is not, let's all be enslaved together.
00:14:47.660
The answer should be, let's all be free together.
00:14:54.360
And we have, now, I don't know where this footage is.
00:15:10.340
Because this goes to, like I say, the worst part of the lockdowns, besides what's being done to the kids.
00:15:17.260
It's how it has become internalized in us, and how it has pitted us against each other.
00:15:23.400
It's turned us into snitches and informants and scolds.
00:15:31.340
And, in the case of that guy at the grocery store, a bit of a bully.
00:16:27.220
You know, again, that's not what you do if there's someone who you think is a health risk.
00:16:33.960
And if you're worried about them violating your physical integrity, you don't violate
00:16:43.380
How do you know that he doesn't have asthma or one of the many medical reasons or frankly
00:16:50.300
And I don't think they ever spoke with him, did they?
00:16:54.720
It was like that scene, remember that movie from that TV series a few years ago, Game
00:17:00.180
of Thrones, where they had this walk of shame by the defrocked queen.
00:17:08.580
And there was this cathartic two minutes of hate, very powerful scene I recall from that
00:17:15.980
They were expiating their own rage at being locked down onto this one scapegoat who dared
00:17:29.300
You know, it could have been another romantic language like that.
00:17:33.260
It almost doesn't matter because that's so ubiquitous in the Western world now.
00:17:40.100
You know, 20 years ago, before wokeism was a thing, there was a series of funny blogs.
00:17:49.060
And there's a popular blog called Things White People Like.
00:17:55.920
And this was before the age of rage and racial disharmony that we're in now.
00:18:02.060
You would never have a site called Things White People Like now.
00:18:05.340
And if you did, it would all be things that condemned white people.
00:18:09.140
It wouldn't be funny things like, oh yeah, pumpkin spice lattes.
00:18:12.080
And my point is that another way of saying that is rich people problems or first world problems.
00:18:21.140
You know, there was a series of blogs back then.
00:18:25.300
There's certain things that you have to be rich and carefree to worry about.
00:18:31.980
And I think that poor people, people in the third world, they have too many real problems in life to be worried about a disease that has a 99.9% recovery rate for anyone under 70.
00:18:51.420
Are they going to be able to feed their family?
00:18:57.760
Are they going to get regular health care for regular things?
00:19:01.980
I think it's only the luxurious Western elite that can have this problem that's actually a non-problem in any substantial way.
00:19:13.420
But it allows them to have the frisson, the excitement of a crisis that's never really actually critical.
00:19:22.740
I mean, you want to see a crisis, look at South Africa.
00:19:29.280
Now, they're not just torching shops with retail goods now.
00:19:33.220
I saw what was described on Twitter as torching food, like grocery wholesale and shipping and trucking logistics centers.
00:19:46.460
And I saw, I don't know if you can find any of this.
00:19:51.440
But I saw some milk, like some, you know, you sometimes see tanker trucks on the highway.
00:19:59.820
And you know they're different from like oil or something because they're usually stainless steel or whatever.
00:20:07.120
And you know that's either vegetable oil or milk.
00:20:11.880
So when you see these trucks on the road, they're spotless.
00:20:19.180
These milk trucks, and there's a lot of them here, are spilling their milk on the ground.
00:20:29.820
It's got to be thousands of liters, maybe tens of thousands.
00:20:35.720
Like just think about how much milk is in there.
00:20:44.980
Because I don't want to go just from my memory here.
00:20:48.580
Because I seem to recall they were saying that the milk processing or the dairy processing facility,
00:20:54.840
thousands of liters of milk having to be dumped today in South Africa after looters destroyed the depot.
00:21:06.000
And he is a sort of a citizen journalist there.
00:21:12.480
So I take him at his word that that's what this is.
00:21:30.380
Someone made the decision just to dump the milk.
00:21:46.840
Justin, in 1917, I understand from my memory, and I'll have to check it,
00:21:50.940
that Russia was the world's largest exporter of wheat in 1917.
00:21:59.380
I'm going from, I haven't checked that stat in a while, but I'm going from my memory.
00:22:04.840
By the time the Berlin Wall fell in 1989, some, what's that, 72 years later,
00:22:12.160
the Soviet Union had become the world's largest importer of wheat.
00:22:18.200
And it's obvious why communism, the Holodomor targeting of Ukrainian farmers,
00:22:43.580
and that 1% of the land that you were allowed to have, like a private garden,
00:22:48.420
represented, I'm trying to remember the number, if it was 10% of the production.
00:22:52.840
And again, I'm just going, that isn't even from memory.
00:22:57.060
My point is, the forced collectivization, the destruction of private property,
00:23:02.120
turned Russia and the Soviet Union into a beggar nation that could not feed itself.
00:23:12.520
once the breadbasket of Africa on the verge of starving.
00:23:17.340
And I am deeply worried that South Africa, when you, South Africa is an interesting,
00:23:25.140
There's great wealth, but there's also poverty,
00:23:27.060
but there's also a growing middle class and people trying to get ahead.
00:23:30.120
And it is the kind of place where if you destroy the infrastructure,
00:23:34.280
and if you destroy businesses, it will fall back into poverty so quickly.
00:23:39.460
It will be like Zimbabwe, it will go to the brink of starvation.
00:23:44.940
And when I see food being destroyed like that, can you show me the burning?
00:23:50.820
Like it's not just looting, you know, flat screen TVs and games and like retail luxury goods.
00:24:01.180
Can I, can we see this in the context of the tweet itself?
00:24:09.560
So just widespread looting, like there's some images of, that look like a war zone
00:24:14.820
and that show trucks and warehouses and if you find them on, yeah,
00:24:32.080
Baby thrown from buildings set on fire by looters.
00:24:44.260
Here a shopping center has been looted and a fire set, yeah, I mean, look at that.
00:24:54.040
South African mother threw her, oh my God, I don't even want to, that's so terrible.
00:25:16.300
It has emerged that an Afrox building near Queen Nandy Drive in Durban in KwaZulu-Natal was on fire.
00:25:24.180
There are also reports of explosions around the area.
00:25:28.420
I'm just going to Google Afrox just because I don't know what it is.
00:25:41.200
I can't even find, African Oxygen Limited, sounds like an industrial company.
00:25:58.440
This is, look, this is what I was talking about.
00:26:02.160
Footage shot from a helicopter shows fires at warehouses and people gathering outside truck depots in the north of Durban.
00:26:11.800
More than 70 people have been killed in the unrest, the worst in South Africa for years,
00:26:21.160
The size of these riots, the number of participants, I don't even know how many police it would be.
00:26:34.360
You're not going to retake that with less than a thousand cops or, or, or soldiers.
00:26:38.600
I just don't, like, like, you got 50 cops, don't even send them.
00:26:43.480
Several trucks were set on fire on a main highway in South Africa on Friday night, closing one of the country's biggest roads.
00:26:54.140
Take a moment to watch this short film, South Africa is on fire.
00:26:59.620
The imprisonment of, yeah, because, because Jacob Zuma, a crooked ex-leader was in prison.
00:28:07.260
The Afrox, but I don't know what Afrox is, and I had some trouble.
00:28:17.140
Afrox is a chemical, African oxygen, a chemical manufacturing company.
00:28:54.580
But there is some rationale to riots, especially if they have a purported political overtone.
00:29:06.840
I'm going to riot and burn down my enemy's stuff.
00:29:10.420
But that rarely happens because, you know, your enemy is probably, if he thinks of himself
00:29:19.360
It reminds me of when Black Lives Matter riots burned down black businesses in black neighborhoods.
00:29:26.100
How are you helping black people by burning down black neighborhoods and destroying black businesses?
00:29:35.320
If that school, I'm sure that was a black school.
00:29:48.400
You're burning a logistics center, a trucking warehouse center.
00:29:57.860
Haven't you just made everything worse for everyone?
00:30:07.060
So maybe you've hurt some big corporate brands, but I think as much as anything, you've hurt the people who work there.
00:30:17.680
And I'm really worried that what happened to Zimbabwe, just, I mean, what I said about the former Soviet Union, Russia, 1917, world's largest export of wheat, 72 years later, world's basket case.
00:30:30.140
Rhodesia, breadbasket of Africa, Zimbabwe, near starvation.
00:30:35.400
I'm worried that South Africa is going to spin into that, too.
00:30:39.920
When you start burning and looting the basic building blocks of a modern society, it can't end well.
00:30:49.360
You're hurting everyone, especially the poorest.
00:31:01.420
On Super U, someone, nobody says, kicking that guy outside, what next?
00:31:05.700
You're talking about that guy kicked off the train.
00:31:08.760
Yeah, and they were physically manhandling, too.
00:31:14.600
You get a bit of a mob like that, there's no telling what could happen.
00:31:22.900
If he has a mask exemption and has the legal right to be on the train, and a bunch of angry,
00:31:29.300
know-nothing people try and physically throw him off the train, is he within his rights to
00:31:34.860
I think under our criminal law, I think the answer is yes.
00:31:39.420
You're allowed to use reasonable force to defend yourself.
00:31:42.520
Not violent force, but I think you are allowed under our law to use reasonable force to defend
00:31:55.020
Now, he was outnumbered, but he looked young and strong, and a lot of them looked like middle-aged
00:32:08.040
Well, I could say that about half the things we talk about on this channel, I regret.
00:32:17.120
Thank you very much, and a shout out to our friends on Super U. As you know, in addition
00:32:21.200
to the YouTube censorship channel, we're on superu.net, rumble.com, and odyssey.com.
00:32:29.140
All right, we'll come back to more chats from there.
00:32:31.420
I want to tell you that in Canada, we've been active in lockdown litigation.
00:32:41.180
Our Fight the Fines coordinator, Victoria Solomon, just came back from a well-deserved one-week
00:32:46.320
vacation, so it's great to have her back in the office.
00:32:48.680
And she got caught up on things, and I said, Victoria, last time you gave me an update,
00:32:52.540
you had 1,834 cases that we were fighting the fines for.
00:32:58.580
I want to just show our page, fightthefines.com, to remind people what we do.
00:33:03.280
If you've got a lockdown ticket, if you've got a ticket for no mask, for not social distancing,
00:33:10.000
for any one of these infringements, we give you a free lawyer.
00:33:14.980
Here, scroll down a little bit, and you see all these videos there.
00:33:22.700
UFC fighter faces huge fines, choked by police, five adults arrested and charged after not
00:33:33.500
Look at that small town, population 165 hotel, given a $15,000 COVID fine.
00:33:39.940
So we've got businesses, we've got churches, Alberta family fine nearly $10,000 for skipping
00:34:02.640
We don't make you answer questions about your political stripe or your religious stripe or
00:34:07.600
where you're, like just, if you are someone who got a ticket, we will help you, full stop.
00:34:16.520
And when I spoke to Victoria before her vacation, we had 1,834 cases.
00:34:22.220
She caught up that we have two full-time paralegals.
00:34:24.960
And she tells me, and I'm going to interview her later, that we now have 2,006, 2,006 cases
00:34:37.080
So that's almost 200 new ones in the last, like, three weeks or months.
00:34:43.540
So it's actually, I thought it would be slowing down now.
00:34:53.220
In addition to those 2,006 individuals, we have financed some constitutional challenges,
00:35:02.040
And I'm disappointed to say our constitutional challenges and other constitutional challenges
00:35:11.340
by other lawyers and other plaintiffs, they've all failed.
00:35:20.020
There's probably been a dozen real attempts to stop the lockdowns in different provinces and
00:35:32.000
I'm unaware of any judge in this country who has made a substantial decision to say no.
00:35:38.580
I think there was one Quebec exemption that they tweaked, like a tiny thing, and it was
00:35:47.580
Other than that, I think every single case lost.
00:35:51.120
Just the judges aren't going to stand up for civil liberties.
00:36:15.740
Spain's top court rules the pandemic lockdown is unconstitutional.
00:36:21.660
The ruling said that the limitations on movement violated citizens' basic rights.
00:36:29.580
Last year's stay-at-home lockdown ordered by the government under a state of emergency
00:36:33.740
Spain's constitutional court has ruled on Wednesday.
00:36:36.380
The court ruling was in response to a suit filed by the far-right Vox party.
00:36:40.800
Yeah, everyone's far-right when you're the independent newspaper.
00:36:45.000
It was a split decision, according to a brief statement issued by the court.
00:36:57.280
Hang on, are you far-right if you believe in individual liberty?
00:37:01.180
Or are you far-right if you believe in the state locking people in their homes?
00:37:04.660
Imagine saying the civil libertarians, who don't want an authoritarian government locking
00:37:20.640
Like, even in this story on the Supreme Court judges, their six-to-five split for freedom.
00:37:41.680
But I watched this video yesterday, and I want to tell you.
00:37:53.820
But I just saw this video, and I started watching it.
00:38:02.260
And I've got to tell you, I actually had a smile on my face the whole time.
00:38:18.820
And here's Avi Yamini, the thunder down under, who fought a Fight Defines case.
00:38:27.280
And I'm not even including the Australian and the British ones in our 2006, by the way.
00:38:32.000
You add in what we're doing in Australia and the UK, we got even more.
00:38:43.780
Today I've got absolutely fantastic news I can't wait to share with you.
00:38:47.220
Remember Rob, who was arrested and charged for being in the wrong place at the wrong time?
00:38:53.440
Well, Fight Defines managed to finally get his charges dropped.
00:39:00.300
But there was one more promise I had to fulfil.
00:39:09.800
Let's say at the end of this, we'll do a party with pizza.
00:40:09.960
You've been waiting a few months for this pizza.
00:40:12.020
I've had one in between, but this is like the celebration pizza.
00:40:15.180
So this is the thing that I missed out on the day.
00:40:34.420
We filmed it a few weeks ago, but things have been crazy, so we only got to air it last
00:40:40.200
And a lot of people ask, oh, well, why don't you just put in a letter?
00:40:43.280
You put in the review and police doubled down and they said, no, we're going to hold you
00:40:52.740
Madeline put in submissions and still the police refused to withdraw.
00:41:04.720
And at that one, I think police finally realise if they go forth with this, they're going
00:41:10.840
to lose and they're going to have to pay costs.
00:41:19.100
You guys, without you, I'd be still wondering what to do.
00:41:29.600
But this is for those that stood up for Dad last time.
00:41:40.000
What would you like to say to everyone who did donate?
00:41:45.740
I saw one comment that said, now I've got more than my friends.
00:42:03.280
And, you know, those people that donate, they're hard-earned money and that, you know, I really
00:42:08.560
appreciate and I hope this sort of thing stops them from doing it to other people.
00:42:15.660
There's one to show fellow Aussies that don't live in fear of the state controlling you because at the end of the day, there's other Aussies or other people around the world that are going to have your back when the time comes.
00:42:28.920
But it's also a message to the state going, if you pick people off one by one, we're going
00:42:35.480
to come together collectively and we're going to defend them.
00:42:39.620
Madeline, she's had a perfect record so far in Victoria.
00:42:45.380
And, you know, you saying that about, you know, people have got my back.
00:42:48.600
Well, I didn't sort of, you sort of hear about it, but I didn't realise like that until, you
00:42:54.380
know, this came and then some blokes at work said, you know, oh, these are comments because
00:42:58.660
I'm not into Instagram or whatever and all that.
00:43:01.200
And I said, oh, it's nice of those people to say those things and that.
00:43:07.460
Were you guys just in this the whole time for the pizza?
00:43:11.180
Oh, he sort of ditched me and I didn't get to be there with him all the day.
00:43:29.100
But no, they're good lads and you guys are lucky.
00:43:31.400
You've got a loving family and we've got this stress behind us.
00:43:43.080
What's your message to, there's two groups of people,
00:43:45.300
to those who have received a fine and are living with that stress?
00:43:53.800
You have good people like this bloke here and Madeline
00:43:57.220
and people that I don't even know that support us
00:44:05.060
and we are there for you and, yeah, we've got your back.
00:44:08.920
And this is all only possible with you guys at home,
00:44:13.160
the viewers, those of you who dig deep into your pockets
00:44:18.300
The more money we raise, so fightthefinals.com.au,
00:44:20.840
the more money we raise, the more Aussie battlers we can fight for.
00:44:30.300
You know, there's so many things about that video
00:44:37.040
I mean, the banter, I don't know if that kid's name was Nugget
00:44:41.140
or if that's just, if that's what you call a smaller person.
00:44:53.360
I say lad and lass, which is a little bit Scottish.
00:45:10.740
You know, look at these tall, your kids are so tall,
00:45:21.040
that Aussie battler, the big guy, the dad there,
00:45:25.780
was arrested and charged with a total stitch-up.
00:45:29.940
He was just nearby where there was some protest going on
00:45:39.440
and the Madeline they're talking about is Madeline Smith,
00:46:05.160
is in Canada, and I'm sure in other jurisdictions, too,
00:46:13.440
That is, you can't be charged with an offense today,
00:46:17.440
and they'll get around to it five years from now.
00:46:25.320
and there's the stigma of even being accused of a crime.
00:46:29.940
Even if you're completely innocent, not guilty at all,
00:46:37.080
So, I mean, imagine if you were held on bail, right?
00:46:41.200
So my point is that these fight the fines cases
00:46:45.580
we started taking the first ones in April of 2020.
00:46:50.300
In fact, the very first one was Pastor Arthur Pawlowski.
00:46:54.600
And so it's May, June, July, so it's 15 months now.
00:47:05.440
but typically, if there are not cases, you know, preceded,
00:47:11.080
if you don't have your case heard in a year and a half,
