Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 1014 Scott Adams： The Strategy of the Protestors and Where it is Heading

00:00:00.000 Hey everybody, come on, come on in, it's time, it's time for Coffee with Scott Adams.

00:00:18.420 Good to see you Omar, good to see the rest of you.

00:00:22.680 Well, what a night, what a night.

00:00:25.300 You know, you think the news will slow down, but the news just keeps on coming.

00:00:31.420 June is always such a crazy month because everybody's schedule changes and the weather changes and suddenly stress is through the roof and why aren't those kids in school and rawr.

00:00:43.760 So I'm going to guess that for many of you, your stress levels a little bit high.

00:00:50.800 Anybody, anybody, a little bit of stress?

00:00:53.240 Well, I'm here to bring it down.

00:00:57.120 Let's bring it down.

00:00:58.500 Let's bring down that stress.

00:01:00.980 Because we will get through this.

00:01:03.120 We get through everything.

00:01:04.880 But, you know what really helps?

00:01:07.480 You know what really, really helps?

00:01:09.760 Is a simultaneous sip.

00:01:10.940 And all you need is a cup or mug or a glass, a tank or chalice or stein, a canteen jug or flask, a vessel of any kind.

00:01:21.160 Fill it with your favorite liquid.

00:01:22.340 I like coffee.

00:01:23.940 And join me now for the dopamine hit of the day.

00:01:27.180 The thing that makes everything better.

00:01:29.440 It practically cured the pandemic already.

00:01:32.120 Don't hear much about it.

00:01:33.800 And now, the simultaneous sip is going to take on the protests and the riots and the looting.

00:01:38.660 And, yeah, watch them go down.

00:01:41.200 Go.

00:01:41.680 I don't want to get all scientific.

00:01:47.440 But I'm willing to guarantee that in one year, thanks to that sip, there will be less rioting.

00:01:59.000 That's right.

00:01:59.680 You can check it.

00:02:00.580 Check it a year from now.

00:02:01.760 See if I'm not right.

00:02:03.200 A year from now, on this date, there will be fewer riots because of the simultaneous sip.

00:02:11.100 If you don't know how cause and effect works and you think it's just a correlation, well, you've got a lot of scientific learning that you need to do.

00:02:20.260 Well, yes, a chalice.

00:02:24.500 That's right.

00:02:25.160 I said chalice.

00:02:26.340 Didn't I?

00:02:26.780 Let's talk about all the news.

00:02:30.960 The top story, I think, is that the Oakland Zoo had a report that their tigers got out.

00:02:40.360 So that actually happened in my neighborhood.

00:02:43.460 So how would you like to live in a neighborhood where don't go outside because, you know, the climate change might kill you and the riots might kill you.

00:02:54.220 And one more thing.

00:02:58.480 There's a tiger loose in your neighborhood.

00:03:02.180 That's all we're saying.

00:03:03.500 Just stay safe.

00:03:05.120 Just watch out for Antifa.

00:03:08.500 If anybody throws a brick, make sure you duck and watch your back.

00:03:14.400 There might be a tiger.

00:03:16.400 Turns out that was a fake report.

00:03:17.940 And I give great respect to whoever the prankster was who started the rumor that the animals got out of the Oakland Zoo.

00:03:26.940 Because that's what happened.

00:03:28.180 It was just a rumor.

00:03:29.460 There were no animals that got away from the Oakland Zoo.

00:03:32.380 But for a while, for a while, that was a local story.

00:03:35.800 And I don't know what's wrong with me that, you know, the world can literally be burning.

00:03:43.320 But when somebody plays a prank like the tiger got out of the zoo, I don't know.

00:03:48.300 If you can't laugh at that, we've already lost civilization.

00:03:54.000 All right.

00:03:54.320 Here's a little update.

00:03:55.140 Do you remember that paper that was published that showed that masks don't work because if you cough through the mask, it doesn't stop the virus?

00:04:07.060 Do you remember that paper?

00:04:09.180 Well, it turns out that that paper that caused a lot of the experts to say that masks don't work has been retracted because it turns out it was all bullshit.

00:04:21.120 It was just all bullshit.

00:04:22.380 It wasn't even close to science.

00:04:26.200 It was all bullshit.

00:04:28.460 So it's been retracted.

00:04:30.700 So how do you feel about your experts?

00:04:33.880 How do you feel about those experts now?

00:04:36.880 And, you know, I'm going to say again, I think I was the first public person to call bullshit on masks not working.

00:04:46.480 Now, if anybody said it before I did, I haven't seen it yet because I think it was kind of risky.

00:04:52.380 When all the experts, all the experts, literally all the experts were saying that masks don't work and they had science.

00:05:00.440 Look at our science.

00:05:01.640 And by the way, I just hope you can appreciate my complete lack of embarrassment that I would say publicly and loudly and often that every expert in the world and all their science were wrong.

00:05:16.960 And, of course, I was right.

00:05:20.220 I was right.

00:05:21.200 It was obvious I was right.

00:05:22.940 I didn't have to do any science.

00:05:24.480 It was kind of obvious.

00:05:25.260 But I would just like to claim that for the rest of my life as a thing that in some ways I'm most proud of.

00:05:35.720 Now, I'm not most proud of it because I realized it, because I think there must have been millions of people who said the same thing.

00:05:41.480 There had to be 100 million people who said some version of, if the virus is in the droplets and the mask stops droplets away, explain to me how they don't work.

00:05:56.260 How do they not work?

00:05:58.040 Because you touch your face more?

00:06:00.400 Because when I put my mask on, I touch my face less.

00:06:03.880 I touch it through the mask, but I touch my face less.

00:06:06.880 So, anyway, the part I'm proud of is that I had worked on my ego to the point.

00:06:17.580 This is an important lesson, actually.

00:06:19.240 I'll embed this little important lesson in my otherwise fun presentation.

00:06:24.500 The important lesson is that I was able to publicly say something that I think anybody else in the world would have been embarrassed to say in public.

00:06:33.860 Because it's pretty embarrassing to say every scientist and expert in the world is wrong, because, hey, I'm a cartoonist, so trust me.

00:06:43.580 And that's what I did.

00:06:44.920 That's exactly what I did, loudly.

00:06:48.740 Went my way this time.

00:06:50.620 Might not always go my way.

00:06:51.840 But the point is that the key talent in my talent stack was the working on my ego.

00:07:00.180 In other words, being able to embarrass myself at an extreme level.

00:07:05.620 I mean, that would be extremely embarrassing if it had gone the other way.

00:07:10.320 If it turned out that masks were killing people and it turned out there was lots of confirming science to that, or that it didn't work at all.

00:07:18.800 Pretty embarrassing for me.

00:07:20.880 It wasn't an obstacle.

00:07:22.940 All right.

00:07:23.460 Some more stuff.

00:07:24.300 I think the country needs a common enemy, because sometimes that's the only thing that stops you from fighting with each other.

00:07:32.600 I have a theory that humans need a certain amount of conflict.

00:07:37.200 In other words, we're just genetically and all the way to our base code of our DNA, we need conflict.

00:07:45.980 We're sort of a conflict species.

00:07:48.700 If we don't have a war, we'll start one at home. 1.00

00:07:52.000 If we don't have one at home, we'll start one somewhere else.

00:07:56.220 We kind of need to fight.

00:07:58.760 We're just fighting people.

00:08:00.520 And you can either try to deny your nature, or you can try to engineer something productive to work with, using your nature in a positive way.

00:08:11.480 The reason capitalism works is that it understands people are selfish and greedy.

00:08:17.760 Capitalism works, because it understands people are horrible.

00:08:23.980 We're selfish and greedy.

00:08:26.040 But it's a system that harnesses selfishness and greed and turns it into gold.

00:08:32.200 Best system you could ever have.

00:08:34.780 How about democracy?

00:08:36.300 People are stupid, fearful, tribal, and don't care about their neighbors.

00:08:43.660 But democracy lets everybody have their little selfish vote.

00:08:50.540 And because we accept the credibility of the system, it turns all this ignorance and bad intention into gold.

00:08:58.580 You get the United States.

00:08:59.880 You get the Constitution.

00:09:00.820 A good system can turn horrible things into something good.

00:09:08.520 And we do it all the time.

00:09:11.280 Fertilizer is used to grow.

00:09:13.940 Literally, poop that comes out of cows is used to grow new food.

00:09:19.800 So you can turn bad things into good things.

00:09:21.920 It's very common.

00:09:22.620 And right now, we have all this angry energy.

00:09:26.400 Lots of angry energy in the country.

00:09:29.920 And right now, it's just sort of directed in every direction.

00:09:34.360 Like, everybody's angry at just sort of a variety of things.

00:09:39.200 What we need is one good common enemy.

00:09:44.760 I recommend Antifa.

00:09:48.360 Antifa is the common enemy of black people.

00:09:51.340 It's the common enemy of anybody who likes civilization.

00:09:55.720 Because they are anti-civilization.

00:09:58.060 They're literally trying to devolve civilization to the point of starvation.

00:10:04.700 No, they don't say it in those words.

00:10:06.540 But basically, that's it.

00:10:08.480 They don't have an end game.

00:10:10.360 They just want less of everything.

00:10:12.680 And what you get when you destroy things is that outcome.

00:10:16.900 So I would say that all the people who want economic prosperity, who want a fair world, who want jobs, are on the same side.

00:10:29.500 So if you are black and you want jobs and a good society and all those things that, say, Martin Luther King would have wanted, if you want any of that stuff, Antifa is your mortal enemy.

00:10:43.540 And it's certainly the mortal enemy of the right, the political right.

00:10:50.860 I would say it should be the mortal enemy of the liberal, let's say, the moderate liberals.

00:10:59.980 Right?

00:11:00.420 So I would say Antifa should be our common enemy.

00:11:06.080 If you take them out of the mix, everything looks different.

00:11:11.100 Here's a question for you.

00:11:12.900 I have not seen any reporting yet on which red states, or actually red, I guess red cities, are rioting.

00:11:21.560 Does anybody have any statistics on Republican-controlled cities?

00:11:27.280 Are there any?

00:11:28.060 I don't know.

00:11:28.700 Is there even a Republican-controlled city anywhere?

00:11:31.880 Is that even a thing?

00:11:33.320 Are there any Republican-controlled cities that are having problems?

00:11:38.200 Why is there no reporting on that?

00:11:39.940 That feels like the most obvious thing you would see reporting on.

00:11:42.760 I don't think I've seen any.

00:11:45.820 Somebody says, what about white supremacy?

00:11:48.100 As a common enemy?

00:11:49.640 White supremacy would be a great common enemy if you could find any.

00:11:53.780 Right?

00:11:54.220 If you could find any white supremacy, let me know.

00:11:58.740 I'll be your common enemy.

00:12:01.080 I don't like white supremacy.

00:12:02.700 But if you find any, find a person or anything like that.

00:12:07.580 But there's not enough of them.

00:12:10.820 You need a common enemy where you can actually find one.

00:12:13.940 Good luck finding a white supremacist.

00:12:16.420 Except in your imagination and under your bed.

00:12:19.520 I'm sure there are three or four in the country somewhere.

00:12:21.500 But otherwise, it's mostly imaginary.

00:12:24.760 There's lots of racism.

00:12:26.120 It's just the supremacy part is the part that went away.

00:12:30.480 And by the way, the reason white supremacy doesn't exist,

00:12:34.040 again, this is the cartoonist who has no ego.

00:12:37.460 And I will shame myself in public by saying,

00:12:41.280 you think they're a white supremacist?

00:12:44.420 I don't think you've ever talked to one.

00:12:47.360 Because if you talk to anybody who is just a plain racist,

00:12:50.960 they will tell you that white people are not supreme. 0.51

00:12:54.780 In fact, that's a big part of the racism,

00:12:58.400 is that they're worried they'll lose ground to groups

00:13:01.360 that they think will just do better than them.

00:13:03.360 So, regular racism is the opposite of supremacy.

00:13:08.540 Regular racism, at least the way it's expressed

00:13:11.320 by most white Americans who are racist,

00:13:14.860 is a sense of inferiority.

00:13:17.200 If you don't understand that,

00:13:19.860 that it comes from a sense of sort of inferiority,

00:13:23.680 don't think you can compete,

00:13:25.340 then you don't really understand the situation.

00:13:27.400 In many cases, everybody's different, of course,

00:13:30.900 but in many cases, it's more like the opposite

00:13:32.960 of white supremacy.

00:13:34.440 It's more like white insecurity, 0.53

00:13:38.240 white inferiority, 0.98

00:13:39.960 or at least feelings of inferiority

00:13:41.820 that are driving a lot of it.

00:13:43.460 All right, that's just my opinion.

00:13:44.720 All right.

00:13:46.260 Does it seem to you like the news

00:13:48.240 is not showing you the news?

00:13:51.560 I mean, more than usual?

00:13:53.480 I was making this observation

00:13:55.140 that the best video footage we have

00:13:57.940 of the riots and looting

00:13:59.500 are coming from individuals with phones.

00:14:02.740 And all of the footage

00:14:03.760 that's just sort of generic

00:14:05.060 and it's behind the lines

00:14:06.600 and it's too far away

00:14:07.860 or it's shot from a helicopter,

00:14:10.940 like all of the generic stuff

00:14:14.080 is coming from the news networks,

00:14:16.060 partly because I don't think

00:14:17.580 they can get too close to the action.

00:14:19.500 You know, the police keep

00:14:20.420 the professional news crews away.

00:14:23.260 So, as a result,

00:14:26.260 I'm left with this question.

00:14:29.180 Do you think that the media

00:14:30.700 has made a collective decision?

00:14:33.380 Maybe they've even communicated.

00:14:35.660 Maybe the government's communicated with them.

00:14:37.460 It's possible.

00:14:38.440 Do you think that the media

00:14:39.460 has made a decision

00:14:40.420 to show less of the violence?

00:14:43.600 What do you think?

00:14:44.460 Because it looks like a decision.

00:14:46.400 It looks like there's a decision

00:14:48.240 to just not showcase

00:14:50.200 as much of the violence

00:14:52.000 as they possibly could.

00:14:53.260 Because it would be real easy

00:14:54.620 for any of the news networks

00:14:56.020 to just run a montage

00:14:58.060 like Andy Ngo,

00:14:59.600 you know, NGO Ngo.

00:15:02.060 If you're following him,

00:15:03.660 you'll see video after video

00:15:05.820 of pretty shocking things

00:15:08.680 coming out of the riots.

00:15:11.600 So it would be easy to find them.

00:15:13.540 I mean, any of the networks

00:15:14.700 could easily find all of these videos.

00:15:17.380 But they don't run them. 0.96

00:15:19.700 You know, they do some,

00:15:21.200 but it feels like there's

00:15:23.400 some kind of conscious decision

00:15:25.100 and I don't know where it comes from.

00:15:27.240 Maybe they independently

00:15:28.320 just figure it's good citizenship

00:15:30.980 to tamp down the number of visuals

00:15:33.980 that they're doing.

00:15:34.640 But I don't know if they are

00:15:38.420 intentionally suppressing the news

00:15:40.900 to manage the situation.

00:15:44.040 Do you feel like that's what's happening?

00:15:46.540 Oh, somebody says that Tucker

00:15:48.000 aired some of the footage last night.

00:15:50.180 Yeah.

00:15:50.580 But of course,

00:15:51.360 Tucker is an opinion program,

00:15:52.840 an opinion show,

00:15:53.840 and he can do whatever he wants.

00:15:54.940 But I think that Fox News

00:16:00.060 as a general statement

00:16:01.680 is also not showing

00:16:03.480 the full degree of it

00:16:06.140 that you can see on Twitter quite easily.

00:16:08.700 So I ask you this question.

00:16:11.460 Does the news business

00:16:12.840 have a responsibility

00:16:13.920 to show you what's happening,

00:16:15.700 even if it's awful,

00:16:17.320 and even if it would cause you

00:16:19.260 to act in a certain way?

00:16:21.060 Or does the news business

00:16:22.620 have a responsibility

00:16:23.760 like a government

00:16:24.860 in which they're trying

00:16:26.320 to manage how you act

00:16:27.900 by managing what they show you?

00:16:30.520 Because it looks like

00:16:31.420 they're trying to manage

00:16:32.240 how we act

00:16:33.120 by managing what they show us,

00:16:35.600 you know,

00:16:36.220 lowering the amount

00:16:37.540 of graphic images.

00:16:39.860 I don't know if that's a bad thing.

00:16:41.960 Do you?

00:16:42.900 I mean, what's your opinion?

00:16:43.860 Is that a bad thing?

00:16:45.200 Because if it's well-meaning

00:16:46.680 and there's no good

00:16:48.280 that could come from it,

00:16:49.260 you could argue

00:16:50.760 that that's just being

00:16:51.500 good citizens.

00:16:52.620 You know, there's no reason

00:16:53.640 to unnecessarily show you

00:16:55.420 images that will get you worked up

00:16:57.340 and nothing good

00:16:58.200 can come from it.

00:16:59.540 I just have an open question

00:17:00.940 of whether it's a conscious decision

00:17:02.420 by the networks.

00:17:03.320 All right.

00:17:06.540 There was a story

00:17:07.580 that I saw yesterday

00:17:08.580 that now I'm wondering

00:17:09.540 if it's true.

00:17:10.560 Can somebody do me

00:17:11.400 a fact check on this?

00:17:14.000 And I would be surprised

00:17:15.480 that somebody hadn't

00:17:16.260 gotten to me directly.

00:17:17.180 Yesterday I saw a report

00:17:19.380 which today I'm wondering

00:17:20.700 if it was fake news.

00:17:22.680 So I'm hoping somebody

00:17:23.680 could confirm or deny this.

00:17:25.940 I thought I saw

00:17:26.960 that the autopsy

00:17:28.140 showed fentanyl

00:17:29.340 and also meth

00:17:30.900 in the body

00:17:32.860 of George Floyd.

00:17:35.200 Is that true?

00:17:37.460 Because

00:17:38.020 that would be like

00:17:39.360 a gigantic story

00:17:40.700 that didn't seem

00:17:42.160 to be in the news today.

00:17:43.380 I saw it on Twitter

00:17:44.140 but not in the news.

00:17:45.120 Let's see.

00:17:47.540 While you're trying

00:17:48.640 to come up with that

00:17:49.720 fentanyl

00:17:50.820 George Floyd

00:17:54.300 because I'd hate

00:17:55.620 to be spreading

00:17:57.280 that rumor

00:17:57.800 if that was fake news.

00:18:02.500 So the headlines say

00:18:04.460 interesting

00:18:06.280 asphyxiation

00:18:07.240 but let's see

00:18:07.900 if they also say

00:18:09.040 can you tell me?

00:18:11.180 It takes a little while

00:18:12.500 for the

00:18:13.900 they do this

00:18:16.680 all the time

00:18:17.660 just to see

00:18:20.100 if there's fentanyl

00:18:20.880 in this story.

00:18:24.060 Family finding

00:18:25.340 neck compression

00:18:28.000 God I wonder

00:18:30.600 if that was fake news

00:18:31.640 or if they're

00:18:35.720 intentionally

00:18:36.960 not reporting it.

00:18:38.160 All right

00:18:39.740 I'm looking at

00:18:40.160 your comments

00:18:40.700 to see

00:18:41.240 do you guys know?

00:18:44.620 What happened

00:18:45.340 to this news?

00:18:47.460 So I'm seeing

00:18:47.960 a bunch of yeses

00:18:48.840 and trues

00:18:49.480 but it doesn't seem

00:18:51.140 to be showing up

00:18:51.840 in the news.

00:18:54.720 I'm looking

00:18:55.300 at a long article

00:18:56.100 about it

00:18:56.760 and wonder

00:18:59.400 how far down

00:19:00.040 I have to get

00:19:00.620 before I would mention it

00:19:01.720 being that it's

00:19:02.680 the most important

00:19:03.420 thing in the news.

00:19:04.260 Huh.

00:19:05.020 Well I guess

00:19:05.540 I'll have to look that up.

00:19:06.400 I'm not going to say

00:19:06.960 any more about it

00:19:07.780 until I confirm

00:19:09.300 it's true.

00:19:10.800 So somebody says

00:19:12.440 Newsweek is reporting it

00:19:14.200 NBC and Wall Street Journal.

00:19:16.200 Okay.

00:19:17.040 So it's not

00:19:18.220 headline news

00:19:19.440 is it?

00:19:21.860 Are you seeing

00:19:22.760 anybody reporting

00:19:23.640 it as a headline

00:19:24.560 or is everybody

00:19:26.040 reporting it

00:19:26.820 as a

00:19:27.400 somewhere down

00:19:28.780 in a long story

00:19:29.800 it's just a

00:19:30.620 word.

00:19:32.220 All right.

00:19:33.700 There are two

00:19:34.460 autopsies.

00:19:35.540 Oh TMZ

00:19:39.200 reported it

00:19:39.880 then it's probably

00:19:40.520 true.

00:19:41.240 You know what's

00:19:41.560 weird

00:19:41.840 is that

00:19:43.320 follow

00:19:45.000 use the

00:19:45.640 standard

00:19:46.200 and be surprised

00:19:47.900 how often

00:19:48.460 it's true.

00:19:49.560 If I say

00:19:50.580 I saw some

00:19:51.400 news on TMZ

00:19:52.500 what's your

00:19:53.000 first reaction?

00:19:54.520 Oh it's probably

00:19:55.160 like the National

00:19:56.340 Enquirer right?

00:19:57.660 And you're thinking

00:19:58.180 well it could be

00:19:59.100 something that's

00:19:59.660 true but it could

00:20:00.640 be something

00:20:01.040 they just

00:20:01.420 totally made up.

00:20:02.500 That might be

00:20:03.580 your first

00:20:04.060 impression

00:20:04.500 because TMZ

00:20:06.400 is sort of

00:20:06.900 in that

00:20:07.160 entertainment

00:20:07.720 gossipy

00:20:08.920 realm

00:20:09.400 but it's

00:20:10.960 the opposite.

00:20:12.460 I've told you

00:20:13.260 this story

00:20:13.680 before.

00:20:14.660 There was

00:20:15.220 once some

00:20:15.800 fake news

00:20:16.380 about me

00:20:16.960 and it was

00:20:17.880 big headlines

00:20:18.480 for a while.

00:20:19.120 I won't go

00:20:19.500 into it but it

00:20:20.040 was just

00:20:20.460 fake news

00:20:20.960 and TMZ

00:20:22.620 is the

00:20:23.160 only outlet

00:20:24.420 that called

00:20:25.520 me at home

00:20:26.140 to ask me

00:20:26.960 if it was

00:20:27.340 true.

00:20:28.380 Nobody else

00:20:29.160 asked.

00:20:30.280 They're the

00:20:30.880 only ones

00:20:31.540 who asked

00:20:32.000 me if

00:20:32.420 it was

00:20:32.720 true and

00:20:33.680 then I

00:20:33.920 told them

00:20:34.300 the story

00:20:34.740 and then

00:20:35.740 they said

00:20:36.120 oh okay

00:20:36.820 it wasn't

00:20:37.240 true and

00:20:37.920 then they

00:20:38.200 didn't run

00:20:38.560 the story

00:20:38.920 on it.

00:20:40.200 So watch

00:20:41.580 how often

00:20:42.320 TMZ is the

00:20:43.780 most accurate

00:20:44.520 news source

00:20:46.080 because they

00:20:47.400 actually don't

00:20:48.000 have apparently

00:20:48.720 they don't have

00:20:49.260 any motive to

00:20:50.080 make up news

00:20:50.760 because their

00:20:51.640 news is already

00:20:52.300 interesting.

00:20:53.320 Right?

00:20:53.720 So TMZ

00:20:54.620 doesn't have to

00:20:55.420 make up news

00:20:56.300 because the

00:20:57.380 only news that

00:20:58.000 they cover is

00:20:58.760 stuff that's

00:20:59.200 interesting no

00:21:00.480 matter what it

00:21:01.000 is.

00:21:02.200 So they

00:21:03.740 end up just

00:21:04.980 by an

00:21:05.380 accident of

00:21:06.220 what their

00:21:06.740 business model

00:21:07.420 is by

00:21:08.340 accident they

00:21:09.100 end up being

00:21:09.560 the most

00:21:09.920 reliable source

00:21:10.960 of news

00:21:11.620 because they're

00:21:12.660 the only ones

00:21:13.680 who don't have

00:21:14.700 any reason to

00:21:15.260 make up news

00:21:15.900 because it's

00:21:17.420 already interesting

00:21:18.200 or else it

00:21:19.100 wouldn't be in

00:21:19.520 TMZ.

00:21:21.680 All right.

00:21:25.180 So enough

00:21:26.820 of you are

00:21:27.320 confirming the

00:21:28.080 fentanyl story.

00:21:28.920 So I said

00:21:29.680 this yesterday

00:21:30.220 in a special

00:21:30.760 video but

00:21:31.380 some of you

00:21:31.960 only watch the

00:21:32.640 morning ones

00:21:33.200 so I'll

00:21:33.740 repeat it.

00:21:35.060 Everything you

00:21:35.900 know about the

00:21:36.720 George Floyd

00:21:37.700 story you have

00:21:39.060 to reassess

00:21:39.920 and here's

00:21:41.320 why.

00:21:41.600 on day one

00:21:44.120 you said to

00:21:44.840 yourself this is

00:21:45.700 obviously murder

00:21:46.580 I watched it

00:21:48.060 with my own

00:21:48.620 eyes on video

00:21:49.420 and I watched

00:21:50.760 as this

00:21:51.840 white cop

00:21:52.900 that chocolate

00:21:55.900 on my arm

00:21:56.460 what a mess

00:21:57.340 I am.

00:21:58.300 I watched

00:21:59.020 as this

00:21:59.460 white cop

00:22:00.100 put his

00:22:00.460 knee on

00:22:01.000 a black

00:22:01.360 man who

00:22:01.880 was clearly

00:22:02.420 already

00:22:02.900 subdued

00:22:03.580 and kept

00:22:04.560 it there

00:22:04.960 until that

00:22:05.580 man died.

00:22:06.280 We all

00:22:06.540 watched that.

00:22:07.760 Now you

00:22:08.100 say to

00:22:08.400 yourself

00:22:08.740 what are

00:22:09.880 the odds

00:22:10.440 that George

00:22:12.240 Floyd

00:22:12.600 coincidentally

00:22:13.960 died

00:22:14.520 just by

00:22:15.580 coincidence

00:22:16.180 at exactly

00:22:17.540 the same

00:22:18.000 time he

00:22:18.380 was being

00:22:18.840 strangled

00:22:19.360 by a cop

00:22:19.920 and so

00:22:20.980 your common

00:22:21.460 sense says

00:22:22.100 well let

00:22:22.660 me do

00:22:22.880 the odds

00:22:23.400 the odds

00:22:24.600 of somebody

00:22:25.040 dying

00:22:25.500 by coincidence

00:22:26.840 exactly at

00:22:28.060 the same

00:22:28.380 time they're

00:22:28.780 being strangled

00:22:29.700 is about

00:22:30.840 zero.

00:22:32.100 So therefore

00:22:32.620 it was the

00:22:33.460 strangulation

00:22:34.140 the knee

00:22:34.660 that killed

00:22:35.040 him.

00:22:36.000 Common sense

00:22:36.840 logic

00:22:37.900 smart people

00:22:39.260 follow the

00:22:39.940 odds.

00:22:41.340 Then we

00:22:42.060 find out he

00:22:42.640 had fentanyl

00:22:43.360 in his

00:22:43.640 system.

00:22:44.740 Now not

00:22:45.080 all of you

00:22:45.600 are fentanyl

00:22:46.460 experts.

00:22:47.280 I unfortunately

00:22:48.000 know a lot

00:22:48.900 about fentanyl

00:22:49.700 because my

00:22:50.700 stepson died

00:22:51.720 in his

00:22:52.460 system.

00:22:53.460 One of the

00:22:53.860 things I

00:22:54.260 know is

00:22:54.840 that fentanyl

00:22:55.420 makes it

00:22:55.820 difficult to

00:22:56.540 breathe as

00:22:57.240 does meth I

00:22:58.040 believe.

00:22:59.320 And I'm

00:23:00.080 not sure about

00:23:00.460 the meth but

00:23:00.960 fentanyl does.

00:23:02.300 So fentanyl

00:23:03.240 will make you

00:23:04.660 have difficulty

00:23:06.200 breathing.

00:23:08.060 Now if you

00:23:10.120 have difficulty

00:23:10.760 breathing and

00:23:12.260 I heard this

00:23:13.080 from some

00:23:13.520 experts if

00:23:14.260 you're a

00:23:15.020 fentanyl user

00:23:16.260 let's say you're

00:23:16.860 a junkie

00:23:17.580 an addict

00:23:18.080 you have

00:23:19.260 learned that

00:23:19.940 if you

00:23:20.240 were to

00:23:20.480 fall asleep

00:23:21.020 on fentanyl

00:23:21.800 and your

00:23:22.220 head goes

00:23:22.660 down you

00:23:23.820 might constrict

00:23:24.720 your own

00:23:25.240 breathing and

00:23:25.980 not wake

00:23:26.460 up.

00:23:27.180 In other

00:23:27.500 words you'll

00:23:27.900 just asphyxiate

00:23:28.780 yourself by

00:23:30.400 just falling

00:23:30.880 asleep because

00:23:32.040 your neck's in

00:23:32.640 the wrong

00:23:32.900 position.

00:23:33.880 Now if you

00:23:34.280 were simply

00:23:34.760 drunk and

00:23:36.220 you fell asleep

00:23:36.920 with your neck

00:23:37.460 in the wrong

00:23:37.880 position you

00:23:38.660 would do

00:23:39.080 something like

00:23:39.740 this and

00:23:41.660 you would

00:23:41.880 just wake

00:23:42.260 up.

00:23:43.140 So the

00:23:43.480 difference

00:23:43.800 between being

00:23:44.500 on fentanyl

00:23:45.320 and being

00:23:46.420 just inebriated

00:23:47.620 with some

00:23:48.120 other drug

00:23:48.760 is that if

00:23:49.740 you're inebriated

00:23:50.520 with another

00:23:51.120 drug and

00:23:52.020 your breathing

00:23:52.560 gets cut

00:23:53.100 off it kind

00:23:54.000 of wakes

00:23:54.260 you up so

00:23:55.740 it doesn't

00:23:56.040 kill you. 0.99

00:23:57.080 On fentanyl

00:23:57.620 you don't

00:23:57.900 wake up.

00:23:58.960 You just

00:23:59.340 don't breathe.

00:24:00.540 You just

00:24:00.820 don't breathe

00:24:01.280 and then you

00:24:02.280 die because

00:24:02.820 you're not

00:24:03.060 breathing.

00:24:04.520 So the

00:24:07.360 responsibility

00:24:08.920 of the

00:24:09.540 police is

00:24:11.020 to be

00:24:11.380 smarter than

00:24:12.100 us.

00:24:13.820 Scott is an

00:24:14.580 idiot. 0.79

00:24:15.320 We'll get

00:24:19.000 rid of

00:24:19.280 you.

00:24:21.940 The

00:24:22.460 responsibility

00:24:22.960 of the

00:24:23.320 police of

00:24:23.720 course is

00:24:24.080 to be

00:24:24.300 smarter than

00:24:24.940 the public

00:24:25.380 and the

00:24:27.560 public would

00:24:28.380 not know

00:24:29.060 that if

00:24:29.780 somebody had

00:24:30.380 maybe fentanyl

00:24:31.440 in them

00:24:31.860 and remember

00:24:32.520 the police

00:24:33.580 would assume

00:24:34.280 that a

00:24:34.760 great many

00:24:35.200 people that

00:24:35.740 they stop

00:24:36.400 who have

00:24:37.540 symptoms of

00:24:38.840 being under

00:24:39.320 the influence

00:24:40.120 the police

00:24:41.160 would know

00:24:41.580 that maybe

00:24:42.640 half of them

00:24:43.240 have fentanyl.

00:24:43.840 the percentage

00:24:45.620 of people

00:24:46.180 who look

00:24:46.760 like they're

00:24:47.200 in that

00:24:47.580 condition

00:24:48.100 who have

00:24:49.220 fentanyl in

00:24:49.820 them is

00:24:50.040 very high.

00:24:51.460 I think

00:24:52.400 maybe half

00:24:53.080 at this

00:24:53.900 point.

00:24:54.840 So if you're

00:24:55.360 a police

00:24:55.680 officer you

00:24:56.500 knew there

00:24:56.820 was maybe

00:24:57.420 a 50%

00:24:58.180 chance he

00:24:58.740 had some

00:24:59.100 fentanyl

00:24:59.640 in him

00:24:59.980 even if he

00:25:00.500 had other

00:25:00.840 stuff too.

00:25:02.380 You knew

00:25:02.920 the fentanyl

00:25:03.500 was a

00:25:03.880 breathing

00:25:04.220 issue.

00:25:04.640 you would

00:25:06.180 be concerned

00:25:06.700 about what

00:25:07.480 position you

00:25:08.200 put the

00:25:08.620 perpetrator

00:25:09.140 in because

00:25:10.280 it might

00:25:10.580 exacerbate the

00:25:11.620 breathing issue

00:25:12.200 and you

00:25:12.540 certainly

00:25:12.820 wouldn't want

00:25:13.260 to put

00:25:13.620 a knee

00:25:15.040 on a

00:25:15.360 neck for

00:25:16.180 somebody who

00:25:16.600 had a

00:25:16.760 breathing

00:25:16.960 issue.

00:25:18.160 You wouldn't

00:25:18.920 want to be

00:25:19.280 on their

00:25:19.500 back, etc.

00:25:21.960 But it

00:25:22.580 turns out that

00:25:23.360 we learned

00:25:23.780 today, according

00:25:24.620 to the

00:25:25.060 reporting of

00:25:26.080 CNN, that

00:25:27.840 the police

00:25:28.540 officers were

00:25:29.760 having a

00:25:30.200 conversation

00:25:30.880 about, and

00:25:32.500 if you haven't

00:25:32.900 heard this, it's

00:25:34.420 the biggest

00:25:34.880 news of the

00:25:35.480 day, the

00:25:37.220 police officers,

00:25:38.320 it was reported,

00:25:39.600 I think by

00:25:40.380 witnesses, that

00:25:41.680 they had a

00:25:42.520 conversation while

00:25:43.480 they had him

00:25:43.940 down about

00:25:45.120 how to keep

00:25:45.800 him alive and

00:25:47.180 specifically

00:25:47.880 mentioned the

00:25:49.460 risk of

00:25:50.580 sudden death

00:25:51.580 from being in

00:25:53.100 the wrong

00:25:53.440 physical position

00:25:54.460 and being in

00:25:55.320 a certain

00:25:56.060 drug state.

00:25:58.800 Did you hear

00:25:59.260 that?

00:26:00.540 The police

00:26:01.240 who had

00:26:01.900 George Floyd

00:26:03.320 down and

00:26:04.720 were on

00:26:05.100 top of

00:26:05.480 him, the

00:26:06.300 three of

00:26:06.660 them, had

00:26:07.600 a conversation

00:26:08.480 which was

00:26:09.000 witnessed, in

00:26:10.200 which they

00:26:10.540 talked about

00:26:11.180 making sure

00:26:11.840 he didn't

00:26:12.480 die accidentally

00:26:14.220 by being in

00:26:15.520 the wrong

00:26:15.940 position and

00:26:17.640 being in a

00:26:18.260 drug state, and

00:26:19.640 there's actually a

00:26:20.280 name for it, which

00:26:21.100 they used.

00:26:22.240 So in other

00:26:22.680 words, the

00:26:23.100 police were

00:26:23.800 medically aware

00:26:25.360 that the

00:26:26.600 perpetrator's

00:26:28.040 position and

00:26:29.340 his drug

00:26:29.920 state was a

00:26:31.620 risk for

00:26:32.440 sudden death.

00:26:33.940 And they

00:26:34.260 talked about

00:26:34.780 how to

00:26:35.060 prevent it, and

00:26:36.340 the one who's

00:26:37.640 been charged

00:26:38.380 said, he's the

00:26:40.000 one who won

00:26:40.880 the conversation,

00:26:42.200 and he said

00:26:42.640 that's why he's

00:26:43.300 on his stomach.

00:26:44.640 In other

00:26:45.020 words, he was

00:26:46.080 on his stomach

00:26:46.980 specifically to

00:26:48.480 prevent, and

00:26:50.740 they said it

00:26:51.260 out loud,

00:26:52.860 specifically to

00:26:53.860 prevent accidental

00:26:55.860 sudden death.

00:26:57.080 death.

00:26:58.220 Now, I see

00:26:59.520 you screaming in

00:27:00.240 the comments,

00:27:01.240 nine minutes, but

00:27:02.580 he kept his

00:27:03.100 leg on there,

00:27:03.680 nine minutes.

00:27:04.740 Now, I'm

00:27:06.200 with you.

00:27:06.820 What I

00:27:07.340 watched looked

00:27:08.300 like a crime.

00:27:10.340 What you and

00:27:10.960 I watched looked

00:27:12.080 like a crime.

00:27:13.460 And until

00:27:14.120 there's a trial,

00:27:15.580 I'm going to

00:27:16.100 assume that there

00:27:16.760 was a crime.

00:27:18.660 But if you

00:27:20.020 think that the

00:27:20.740 guys on the

00:27:22.180 back could

00:27:23.860 tell what was

00:27:24.480 going on, you

00:27:27.820 know, if, let

00:27:29.440 me put it this

00:27:29.880 way, if the

00:27:31.200 intentions of the

00:27:32.480 police officers

00:27:33.300 are part of the

00:27:34.420 charge, in other

00:27:35.220 words, you have

00:27:35.580 to intentionally

00:27:36.280 kill somebody to

00:27:37.660 get murdered, 0.98

00:27:38.240 one, I think,

00:27:40.140 that is

00:27:41.600 disproved.

00:27:43.000 So the

00:27:43.580 evidence disproves

00:27:45.140 intention.

00:27:46.360 In fact, the

00:27:47.400 evidence proves

00:27:48.680 that at least

00:27:49.800 verbally, they

00:27:51.640 were negotiating

00:27:52.700 on how best to

00:27:53.860 keep them

00:27:54.180 alive.

00:27:55.240 So if there's

00:27:56.360 evidence that

00:27:57.000 these three

00:27:57.620 cops were

00:27:58.240 talking about

00:27:58.980 how best to

00:27:59.960 keep him alive

00:28:00.900 and to prevent

00:28:02.060 the very thing

00:28:02.820 that happened,

00:28:04.080 good luck with

00:28:05.720 the conviction.

00:28:07.120 I think you

00:28:07.800 might get a

00:28:08.360 conviction with

00:28:09.260 the one who

00:28:09.720 had his knee

00:28:10.220 on the neck

00:28:10.820 because you

00:28:12.120 could certainly

00:28:12.880 make the case

00:28:13.740 that no matter

00:28:14.580 what, that was

00:28:15.320 the wrong thing

00:28:15.860 to do.

00:28:16.720 Now, what I've

00:28:17.400 said is that

00:28:17.920 even I, as

00:28:19.080 not an expert

00:28:19.760 and not a cop,

00:28:21.080 even I knew

00:28:22.020 that somebody

00:28:23.620 who probably

00:28:24.540 or at least

00:28:25.120 had a high

00:28:25.520 likelihood of

00:28:26.100 having fentanyl

00:28:26.980 in them,

00:28:27.800 even I knew

00:28:28.500 there would be

00:28:28.920 a breathing

00:28:29.440 issue.

00:28:30.680 So even I

00:28:31.400 would not have

00:28:31.960 taken the

00:28:32.380 risk that

00:28:33.560 those cops

00:28:34.100 took.

00:28:36.020 But would

00:28:36.880 you have

00:28:37.160 known that?

00:28:38.160 How many of

00:28:38.880 you would have

00:28:39.420 known what the

00:28:40.100 cops knew,

00:28:41.020 that there was

00:28:41.660 a risk of

00:28:42.260 sudden death

00:28:42.840 in that exact

00:28:43.460 situation?

00:28:44.480 The cops said

00:28:45.140 it out loud,

00:28:45.740 there was a

00:28:46.080 risk of

00:28:46.440 sudden death.

00:28:47.800 I mean, they

00:28:48.340 used the

00:28:48.780 technical word,

00:28:50.040 but that's

00:28:50.320 what it is.

00:28:52.760 Somebody says

00:28:53.460 they should have

00:28:53.980 called for

00:28:54.600 paramedics.

00:28:56.780 I think

00:28:57.160 there's plenty,

00:29:00.240 let me be as

00:29:01.040 clear as I

00:29:01.600 can.

00:29:02.560 I would be

00:29:03.180 amazed if the

00:29:04.480 guy with his

00:29:05.520 neck, with his

00:29:06.500 knee on the

00:29:07.140 neck, doesn't

00:29:08.820 get charged

00:29:09.340 with something

00:29:10.100 that sticks.

00:29:11.120 It just feels

00:29:11.680 like there's

00:29:12.080 got to be

00:29:12.420 something in

00:29:13.860 the way he

00:29:14.300 did his job

00:29:15.160 that was

00:29:16.080 criminal,

00:29:16.500 because it

00:29:16.980 looked like

00:29:17.560 it.

00:29:18.060 So I'm

00:29:18.380 not trying

00:29:18.740 to excuse

00:29:19.540 him, I'm

00:29:20.660 predicting, and

00:29:21.740 I'm predicting 0.90

00:29:22.240 that the

00:29:22.820 three cops

00:29:23.540 who were not

00:29:24.100 charged, even

00:29:25.840 when Ellison

00:29:27.040 looked at

00:29:27.600 it, now

00:29:28.780 Ellison of

00:29:29.360 course is

00:29:29.740 the leftiest

00:29:30.380 left, he's

00:29:32.880 literally

00:29:33.300 anti-fa

00:29:34.180 friendly, so

00:29:35.580 Ellison is

00:29:37.340 the attorney

00:29:37.740 general, and

00:29:39.580 apparently he

00:29:42.840 even said,

00:29:44.420 even Ellison

00:29:45.260 said, the

00:29:46.840 other three

00:29:47.440 cops, it's 1.00

00:29:48.820 going to be

00:29:49.120 a problem,

00:29:49.920 because he's

00:29:51.460 seen the

00:29:51.800 evidence, and

00:29:53.040 I think he

00:29:53.680 knows that

00:29:54.220 they're not

00:29:54.540 going to get

00:29:54.920 convicted, the

00:29:55.760 other three.

00:29:56.760 The one?

00:29:58.060 Probably.

00:29:59.320 So like

00:29:59.940 coronavirus, the

00:30:01.100 odds of this

00:30:02.020 being a two-wave

00:30:03.500 problem with a

00:30:04.380 second wave of

00:30:05.200 rioting and

00:30:05.800 looting is

00:30:07.120 really high,

00:30:08.460 probably in the

00:30:09.020 90% range,

00:30:10.700 because the

00:30:11.300 other three

00:30:11.700 cops have

00:30:12.480 almost no

00:30:13.020 chance of

00:30:13.520 being convicted

00:30:14.180 in my

00:30:15.000 opinion, or

00:30:16.160 if they get

00:30:16.620 convicted, it'll

00:30:17.200 be some minor

00:30:17.780 thing.

00:30:19.040 And I

00:30:21.120 don't think

00:30:21.540 that that will

00:30:22.060 satisfy the

00:30:22.880 bloodlust,

00:30:23.940 because there

00:30:24.680 is a bloodlust

00:30:25.540 here, right?

00:30:26.320 People want

00:30:27.020 revenge, they

00:30:27.820 just want

00:30:29.120 revenge.

00:30:30.060 Now why is it

00:30:31.000 that the black

00:30:31.520 community wants

00:30:32.960 revenge?

00:30:33.720 Well, obviously

00:30:34.280 it's because

00:30:34.920 their lived

00:30:37.600 experience,

00:30:39.220 backed up by

00:30:40.200 lots of news

00:30:41.140 reporting, is

00:30:41.880 that they're

00:30:43.360 targeted by

00:30:45.360 the police.

00:30:46.680 Now the

00:30:47.460 statistics, as

00:30:48.580 I understand

00:30:49.180 them, do 0.88

00:30:50.360 not back that

00:30:51.080 up.

00:30:52.480 Do the news

00:30:53.460 networks report

00:30:54.460 that it's

00:30:55.680 simply not

00:30:56.300 true, that

00:30:57.980 black people

00:30:58.520 are killed at

00:30:59.220 a higher rate

00:30:59.860 than white

00:31:00.420 people during

00:31:01.220 stops where

00:31:02.800 let's say you

00:31:03.360 both have

00:31:03.740 weapons or you

00:31:04.620 don't have

00:31:04.940 weapons, but

00:31:05.640 you know,

00:31:05.920 apples to

00:31:06.400 apples, is

00:31:08.180 CNN reporting

00:31:09.500 that there

00:31:11.840 actually is

00:31:12.440 not a real

00:31:13.700 problem that

00:31:14.560 the riots are

00:31:15.740 rioting over.

00:31:16.800 In other

00:31:17.140 words, it's

00:31:17.560 an imaginary

00:31:18.140 problem in

00:31:19.500 the sense

00:31:19.900 that if you

00:31:20.340 looked at the

00:31:20.900 statistics, it

00:31:21.760 would disappear.

00:31:23.800 Now because

00:31:24.280 we have the

00:31:24.680 video, that

00:31:25.740 part's not

00:31:26.240 imaginary, that's

00:31:27.360 the actual

00:31:27.760 crime, it

00:31:28.460 looks like.

00:31:29.380 So you

00:31:30.140 have to treat

00:31:30.560 that one as

00:31:31.100 a specific

00:31:31.820 case, but

00:31:32.520 how is CNN

00:31:34.500 handling this?

00:31:36.680 What are

00:31:37.020 they doing

00:31:37.440 to lower

00:31:38.180 the temperature?

00:31:40.780 Well, here's

00:31:42.560 a sentence

00:31:43.480 off of CNN's

00:31:44.500 website.

00:31:45.580 Now remember,

00:31:46.080 this is CNN

00:31:46.680 trying to

00:31:47.320 lower the

00:31:47.760 temperature,

00:31:48.820 make sure

00:31:49.240 that the

00:31:50.220 violence stays

00:31:51.860 low, and

00:31:52.840 here's what

00:31:53.200 they say.

00:31:54.660 Police officers

00:31:55.740 are rarely

00:31:56.340 charged with

00:31:57.060 crimes for

00:31:57.740 violence against

00:31:58.520 black men.

00:32:02.160 And even

00:32:02.920 in those rare

00:32:03.580 cases, juries

00:32:04.620 have repeatedly

00:32:05.320 shown an

00:32:05.900 unwillingness to

00:32:06.740 convict.

00:32:07.700 Now, is

00:32:08.120 that a

00:32:08.420 true statement?

00:32:09.720 I'm sure

00:32:10.120 it is.

00:32:11.640 Wouldn't

00:32:11.960 you say

00:32:12.260 this is a

00:32:12.800 true statement?

00:32:13.840 I mean, I

00:32:14.160 haven't seen

00:32:14.540 the statistics,

00:32:15.800 but I'm

00:32:16.100 guessing it's

00:32:16.620 true.

00:32:17.260 Sounds

00:32:17.600 true.

00:32:18.600 So let

00:32:19.260 me read

00:32:19.460 again.

00:32:20.120 From CNN,

00:32:21.000 police officers

00:32:21.680 are rarely

00:32:22.260 charged with

00:32:22.980 crimes for

00:32:23.760 violence against

00:32:24.680 black men.

00:32:26.260 I'll bet

00:32:26.800 that's true,

00:32:27.880 right?

00:32:30.420 What did

00:32:31.220 they leave

00:32:31.520 out?

00:32:32.720 Here's what

00:32:33.380 I think they

00:32:33.940 left out,

00:32:34.500 and they

00:32:36.320 could have

00:32:36.640 at least

00:32:36.940 mentioned it

00:32:37.800 if they

00:32:38.260 wanted to

00:32:38.720 give us

00:32:39.100 good context.

00:32:40.860 How often

00:32:41.660 are the

00:32:42.100 police

00:32:42.500 successfully

00:32:43.560 charged for

00:32:44.760 violence against

00:32:45.600 anyone?

00:32:47.120 Anyone?

00:32:47.400 is it

00:32:49.280 true that

00:32:51.760 when

00:32:52.720 police are

00:32:54.800 charged with

00:32:55.500 violence against

00:32:56.220 black Americans

00:32:56.980 that the

00:32:58.400 police are

00:32:58.840 not charged,

00:33:00.280 or they're

00:33:00.860 not charged

00:33:01.360 for that,

00:33:02.020 but they are

00:33:02.780 charged when

00:33:03.520 they have

00:33:04.000 violence against

00:33:04.640 white Americans

00:33:05.400 if the

00:33:06.200 situations are

00:33:06.880 similar?

00:33:08.080 Is that what

00:33:08.900 CNN is telling

00:33:09.680 us?

00:33:10.420 Because by

00:33:10.980 leaving out,

00:33:13.300 it seems to

00:33:14.160 me that they

00:33:14.680 should have

00:33:15.040 said,

00:33:15.380 just to

00:33:17.380 complete the

00:33:17.920 thought.

00:33:18.480 If they

00:33:18.920 believed it

00:33:19.340 was true,

00:33:19.780 they would

00:33:20.020 have completed

00:33:20.480 the thought

00:33:20.940 and say,

00:33:21.680 police are

00:33:22.660 rarely charged

00:33:23.520 for hurting

00:33:24.580 black citizens,

00:33:25.600 but they're

00:33:26.380 often charged

00:33:27.420 for hurting

00:33:28.400 other citizens.

00:33:30.020 The reason

00:33:30.720 they don't do

00:33:31.200 the second

00:33:31.620 part is because

00:33:32.240 I don't think

00:33:32.780 it's true.

00:33:34.280 I think

00:33:34.740 just police

00:33:35.580 generally don't

00:33:37.180 get charged

00:33:37.680 with hurting

00:33:38.060 people,

00:33:38.640 and I'm not

00:33:39.380 even sure

00:33:39.820 that's a big

00:33:40.500 problem,

00:33:41.200 because the

00:33:42.000 opposite would

00:33:42.620 be even worse.

00:33:43.260 if police

00:33:44.800 could not

00:33:45.260 do their

00:33:45.720 job,

00:33:46.580 because they

00:33:46.920 were too

00:33:47.160 worried about

00:33:47.780 being charged

00:33:48.780 with hurting

00:33:49.160 people,

00:33:50.040 I don't know

00:33:50.720 if you'd

00:33:50.960 have an

00:33:51.340 effective

00:33:51.680 police force,

00:33:52.420 you'd probably

00:33:52.740 get riots

00:33:53.960 like you have

00:33:54.440 today.

00:33:58.840 Here's what

00:33:59.520 the police

00:34:00.120 chief,

00:34:00.820 Aaron Dondo,

00:34:02.620 I think it's

00:34:03.720 the police

00:34:04.100 chief who

00:34:05.280 was responsible

00:34:05.960 for the

00:34:06.720 police officers

00:34:07.720 who were

00:34:08.080 charged,

00:34:09.240 and he

00:34:09.500 told CNN

00:34:10.100 that the

00:34:10.980 silence of

00:34:11.820 the four

00:34:12.200 officers

00:34:12.680 involved in

00:34:13.480 Floyd's

00:34:13.920 death,

00:34:14.780 and their

00:34:15.220 inaction

00:34:15.820 made them

00:34:16.620 complicit.

00:34:18.640 So complicit

00:34:19.500 in quotes.

00:34:22.500 What does it

00:34:22.940 mean to be

00:34:23.380 complicit?

00:34:25.000 And is that

00:34:25.520 a crime?

00:34:27.020 Exactly.

00:34:28.300 And if the

00:34:29.980 crime is

00:34:30.520 silence and

00:34:31.480 inaction,

00:34:32.840 how do you

00:34:33.300 square silence

00:34:34.280 and inaction

00:34:35.080 with the fact

00:34:36.340 that it's

00:34:36.740 reported that

00:34:37.440 they were

00:34:37.680 doing the

00:34:38.080 opposite?

00:34:39.280 They were

00:34:39.640 actively saying

00:34:40.640 should we

00:34:41.080 turn him

00:34:41.440 on his

00:34:41.700 side?

00:34:42.700 Should we

00:34:43.140 treat it

00:34:43.480 differently?

00:34:44.100 How could

00:34:44.420 we keep

00:34:44.800 him alive?

00:34:45.900 That's the

00:34:46.580 opposite of

00:34:47.360 inaction.

00:34:48.520 That's actually

00:34:49.400 action in

00:34:50.440 which they

00:34:50.780 discussed the

00:34:51.500 best option,

00:34:52.360 and in the

00:34:53.120 end they did

00:34:53.760 not find an

00:34:54.380 option that

00:34:54.880 worked.

00:34:56.160 Now, let

00:34:57.360 me complete a

00:34:58.200 thought I

00:34:58.540 realized I

00:34:59.140 didn't complete

00:34:59.680 earlier.

00:35:01.140 Fentanyl in

00:35:01.760 the system

00:35:02.280 creates the

00:35:03.260 possibility that

00:35:04.060 the fentanyl

00:35:04.680 killed him

00:35:05.120 just by itself.

00:35:06.840 There is a

00:35:07.960 non-zero

00:35:08.500 chance that

00:35:10.320 he may have

00:35:10.900 taken some

00:35:11.580 if he had

00:35:12.180 any drugs

00:35:12.940 left over

00:35:13.640 that he

00:35:14.100 didn't want

00:35:14.460 to be busted

00:35:15.080 for, he

00:35:16.140 may have

00:35:16.440 put them

00:35:16.780 in his

00:35:17.040 mouth.

00:35:18.300 If he took

00:35:19.060 the drugs

00:35:19.540 he had with

00:35:20.020 him so

00:35:20.480 that he

00:35:20.740 wouldn't be

00:35:21.100 busted, it

00:35:22.580 would be a

00:35:23.080 high likelihood

00:35:23.760 if any of

00:35:24.480 that was

00:35:24.740 fentanyl, it

00:35:25.980 would be a

00:35:26.260 high likelihood

00:35:27.080 that he would

00:35:27.620 have an

00:35:27.900 overdose at

00:35:28.560 exactly that

00:35:29.140 time.

00:35:30.240 In other

00:35:30.620 words, while

00:35:31.260 in custody,

00:35:32.620 which didn't

00:35:33.720 have to happen

00:35:34.240 at that very

00:35:34.960 moment, but the

00:35:36.140 odds of him

00:35:36.680 dying while in

00:35:37.740 custody were

00:35:38.420 very high

00:35:39.140 if, and

00:35:40.480 this is just

00:35:41.000 speculation, he

00:35:42.260 took any drugs

00:35:43.080 to avoid being

00:35:44.400 caught with

00:35:44.880 drugs.

00:35:45.900 Now, we

00:35:48.080 don't know

00:35:48.380 that that

00:35:48.680 happened, but

00:35:49.440 because there

00:35:49.840 was fentanyl

00:35:50.440 in him, that

00:35:52.140 becomes a

00:35:52.640 contributing factor.

00:35:54.220 So if you

00:35:54.680 were the cop

00:35:55.960 with the knee

00:35:56.940 and you were

00:35:57.640 his attorney,

00:35:58.820 how would you

00:35:59.540 argue the

00:36:00.060 case?

00:36:00.960 Here's how I

00:36:01.900 would argue

00:36:02.320 it.

00:36:03.020 I would say,

00:36:04.040 I knew that I

00:36:04.760 was only putting

00:36:05.380 enough pressure

00:36:06.040 on him that

00:36:06.680 it wouldn't

00:36:08.680 kill him, but 0.84

00:36:10.140 I didn't know

00:36:10.800 that under

00:36:11.200 these special

00:36:11.880 circumstances that

00:36:13.000 he had these

00:36:13.500 drugs in him.

00:36:14.500 I didn't know

00:36:15.000 that was an

00:36:15.460 extra dangerous

00:36:16.220 situation, so

00:36:17.600 it was an

00:36:17.900 accident.

00:36:18.640 I think that's

00:36:19.300 what he'll

00:36:19.580 argue, but I

00:36:20.820 think he'll

00:36:21.080 probably lose

00:36:21.620 and it'll be

00:36:21.980 manslaughter

00:36:22.440 anyway.

00:36:25.760 So we got

00:36:26.560 that going on.

00:36:27.280 Oh, it's

00:36:27.500 called excited

00:36:28.220 delirium, is

00:36:29.400 what one of

00:36:30.060 the police

00:36:30.500 called it.

00:36:31.620 He was

00:36:32.080 worried, also

00:36:33.680 known as

00:36:34.160 agitated

00:36:34.840 delirium.

00:36:36.040 Now, the

00:36:36.540 delirium

00:36:37.060 part is

00:36:37.900 related to

00:36:38.500 being on

00:36:38.880 drugs, and

00:36:40.120 it means that

00:36:40.680 you become

00:36:41.600 suddenly violent

00:36:42.620 or could.

00:36:44.480 So we now

00:36:45.640 have an

00:36:45.980 evidence that

00:36:47.160 the police

00:36:47.700 were sort

00:36:48.620 of doing

00:36:49.500 a field

00:36:50.040 diagnosis.

00:36:51.620 They're not

00:36:52.100 medically

00:36:52.620 trained, but

00:36:53.860 they are

00:36:54.140 trained to

00:36:54.600 recognize

00:36:54.940 situations so

00:36:56.140 that they

00:36:56.420 can do

00:36:56.700 risk management.

00:36:58.460 And one

00:36:58.720 of the police

00:36:59.140 officers was

00:37:00.000 calling it

00:37:01.080 out as

00:37:01.500 maybe this

00:37:02.040 excited

00:37:02.520 delirium or

00:37:03.760 agitated

00:37:04.260 delirium,

00:37:04.880 which means

00:37:06.500 that they

00:37:06.900 were recognizing

00:37:07.720 that although

00:37:08.480 the guy

00:37:08.900 seemed

00:37:09.340 nominally

00:37:11.100 not

00:37:11.780 dangerous,

00:37:13.020 that it

00:37:13.720 was the

00:37:14.060 nature of

00:37:14.640 his condition

00:37:15.300 that could 0.68

00:37:16.180 cause him

00:37:16.640 to flip

00:37:17.140 to dangerous

00:37:17.920 very quickly.

00:37:19.540 So that

00:37:20.100 was actually

00:37:20.580 discussed,

00:37:21.880 and now you

00:37:22.660 understand why

00:37:23.620 three of them

00:37:24.100 were holding

00:37:24.520 him down,

00:37:25.220 because they

00:37:25.900 suspected there

00:37:26.640 was a high

00:37:27.080 likelihood that

00:37:28.540 he could turn

00:37:29.180 from friendly

00:37:29.880 to dangerous

00:37:30.880 at a snap

00:37:32.940 because of

00:37:34.560 the condition

00:37:35.020 they were

00:37:35.320 observing,

00:37:35.920 not because

00:37:36.540 of him or

00:37:37.240 not because

00:37:38.080 he was

00:37:38.340 black,

00:37:39.280 but because

00:37:40.300 of the

00:37:40.620 medical

00:37:41.340 condition

00:37:41.900 they

00:37:42.100 observed.

00:37:44.380 Their case

00:37:45.180 is going

00:37:45.500 to be a

00:37:45.980 lot stronger

00:37:46.480 than you

00:37:46.840 want it

00:37:47.140 to be,

00:37:47.460 I'll tell

00:37:47.740 you.

00:37:51.260 Yeah.

00:37:52.840 All right,

00:37:53.420 so we have

00:37:53.780 two battling

00:37:54.420 autopsies,

00:37:55.600 which of

00:37:55.980 course the

00:37:56.520 fake news

00:37:57.220 is reporting

00:37:57.980 incorrectly.

00:37:58.720 So the

00:38:00.260 fake news

00:38:00.780 is reporting

00:38:01.360 that the

00:38:02.100 family's

00:38:02.840 autopsy,

00:38:03.940 the one

00:38:04.160 they paid

00:38:04.520 to have

00:38:04.820 done,

00:38:05.740 shows that

00:38:06.420 the cause

00:38:06.800 of death

00:38:07.160 is homicide,

00:38:10.000 whereas the

00:38:10.960 other experts

00:38:12.360 are,

00:38:14.980 yeah,

00:38:15.300 I think

00:38:15.800 in both

00:38:16.940 cases it's

00:38:17.540 homicide.

00:38:18.840 Yeah,

00:38:19.060 I think in

00:38:19.340 both cases

00:38:19.820 it's homicide.

00:38:21.260 But if you

00:38:22.140 look at the

00:38:22.900 autopsy report,

00:38:24.620 the official

00:38:25.340 one,

00:38:26.220 it says

00:38:26.800 cause of

00:38:27.340 death,

00:38:27.920 homicide,

00:38:28.720 and then

00:38:29.540 at the

00:38:29.940 bottom it

00:38:30.340 has a

00:38:30.680 footnote

00:38:31.080 that nobody's

00:38:31.940 going to

00:38:32.160 report.

00:38:33.560 You know

00:38:33.820 what the

00:38:34.080 footnote

00:38:34.400 says?

00:38:35.360 The

00:38:35.760 footnote

00:38:36.120 says you

00:38:37.440 should

00:38:37.660 ignore that

00:38:38.220 word

00:38:38.440 homicide.

00:38:40.440 That's what

00:38:41.080 the footnote

00:38:41.500 says.

00:38:42.160 I'm

00:38:42.420 paraphrasing,

00:38:43.320 but that's

00:38:43.600 what it

00:38:43.820 says.

00:38:44.560 It says

00:38:45.180 don't take

00:38:45.720 homicide,

00:38:46.280 it's

00:38:46.380 homicide.

00:38:47.700 It says

00:38:48.120 that right

00:38:48.420 on the

00:38:48.640 same page.

00:38:49.960 It says

00:38:50.400 cause of

00:38:50.860 death,

00:38:51.260 homicide,

00:38:52.160 and then

00:38:52.680 just right

00:38:53.120 down the

00:38:53.420 page,

00:38:54.220 it says

00:38:54.500 just to be

00:38:55.020 clear,

00:38:56.460 homicide

00:38:56.820 doesn't mean

00:38:57.620 legally

00:38:58.360 homicide.

00:38:59.860 It just

00:39:00.200 means there

00:39:00.620 was a

00:39:00.880 person

00:39:01.160 involved

00:39:01.620 and the

00:39:01.900 guy died,

00:39:02.440 basically.

00:39:03.300 There was

00:39:03.800 another person

00:39:04.380 involved,

00:39:05.520 the actions

00:39:06.080 of the

00:39:06.400 other person

00:39:07.000 were somehow

00:39:09.400 implicated in

00:39:10.340 the death.

00:39:12.600 So in

00:39:12.980 other words,

00:39:13.380 the coroner

00:39:13.980 report does

00:39:14.720 not say

00:39:15.400 a crime

00:39:16.460 happened.

00:39:18.700 And they're

00:39:19.340 clear about

00:39:19.800 that.

00:39:20.080 They say it

00:39:20.540 in direct

00:39:20.960 language.

00:39:21.960 This report

00:39:22.580 does not

00:39:23.180 determine that

00:39:24.200 a crime

00:39:24.700 occurred.

00:39:25.080 It's very

00:39:26.300 important.

00:39:27.400 If CNN,

00:39:28.520 I'll be

00:39:29.020 amazed if

00:39:29.680 CNN ever

00:39:30.420 reports

00:39:31.020 correctly.

00:39:35.440 Sorry,

00:39:36.400 I got a

00:39:36.880 security alert

00:39:39.200 while I was

00:39:39.600 on live

00:39:40.440 stream here,

00:39:41.280 but it was

00:39:41.660 just a bird

00:39:42.200 walking across

00:39:42.840 my security

00:39:43.360 camera.

00:39:45.080 You know,

00:39:45.800 we live in

00:39:46.840 a kind of

00:39:47.220 time where

00:39:48.140 I don't

00:39:51.720 want to

00:39:51.980 tell you

00:39:52.320 that I'm

00:39:55.040 afraid for

00:39:56.260 my own

00:39:56.640 life because

00:39:57.340 my risk is

00:39:58.140 actually pretty

00:39:58.640 low.

00:39:59.840 But, you

00:40:00.560 know, if I

00:40:01.080 talk about

00:40:01.540 things in

00:40:02.000 public, you

00:40:03.080 know, one

00:40:03.400 worries that

00:40:04.080 crazy people

00:40:05.420 can find you

00:40:06.620 or whatever.

00:40:07.780 But, of

00:40:09.200 course, people

00:40:10.500 like me are

00:40:11.160 taking extra

00:40:11.900 security

00:40:12.460 precautions.

00:40:14.120 So, I

00:40:15.740 have this

00:40:16.080 thought in

00:40:16.460 my mind of

00:40:17.940 how that

00:40:18.360 would go

00:40:18.660 down, and

00:40:19.580 it doesn't

00:40:20.100 go down well

00:40:20.680 for other

00:40:21.060 people.

00:40:21.520 Let's just

00:40:21.800 put it that

00:40:22.200 way.

00:40:23.160 All right.

00:40:26.280 So, we've

00:40:26.840 got the

00:40:27.060 battling

00:40:27.360 autopsies.

00:40:29.280 We've got

00:40:29.920 CNN, who

00:40:30.600 will probably

00:40:31.040 never mention

00:40:31.720 fentanyl or

00:40:32.600 its role in

00:40:34.360 this whole

00:40:34.680 thing, which

00:40:35.180 is pretty

00:40:35.660 big in all

00:40:37.060 likelihood.

00:40:37.740 We don't

00:40:38.020 know.

00:40:39.000 Nothing is

00:40:39.720 known about

00:40:40.340 this.

00:40:40.860 That's one

00:40:41.220 thing.

00:40:42.340 All right.

00:40:45.040 Let me

00:40:45.560 tell you,

00:40:46.060 let me ask

00:40:46.540 you this.

00:40:47.220 Let me

00:40:47.520 ask you

00:40:47.980 this.

00:40:49.740 I predict

00:40:50.780 not I

00:40:51.660 predict, I

00:40:52.160 estimate.

00:40:53.380 So, on

00:40:53.960 back of the

00:40:54.480 envelope

00:40:54.940 estimate, I

00:40:56.080 would say

00:40:56.380 that Antifa

00:40:57.080 has killed

00:40:57.780 more black

00:40:58.400 Americans, or

00:40:59.600 will kill

00:41:00.100 more black

00:41:00.640 Americans in

00:41:01.360 the coming

00:41:01.780 decade than

00:41:03.200 all of the

00:41:03.940 police action

00:41:04.620 put together.

00:41:06.340 So, that's

00:41:06.980 my prediction.

00:41:08.060 So, my

00:41:08.440 prediction is

00:41:09.080 that Antifa,

00:41:10.540 given their

00:41:11.740 contribution to

00:41:12.580 the riots and

00:41:13.900 the economic

00:41:14.680 devastation, which

00:41:17.040 they're causing

00:41:17.540 right now, my

00:41:19.060 estimate is

00:41:19.640 the Antifa, if

00:41:21.220 you were to

00:41:21.560 do the

00:41:21.900 math, would

00:41:22.700 be directly

00:41:23.300 responsible for

00:41:24.460 maybe, I

00:41:25.220 don't know, tens

00:41:25.920 of thousands of

00:41:26.840 black American

00:41:27.540 deaths through

00:41:29.020 the mechanism of

00:41:30.140 extra poverty.

00:41:32.260 Imagine trying to

00:41:33.340 be a young

00:41:34.080 black man in

00:41:35.060 an urban

00:41:35.460 place and

00:41:36.620 asking for a

00:41:37.460 job at any

00:41:38.780 future retail

00:41:39.800 organization.

00:41:41.700 Good luck.

00:41:43.460 Good luck.

00:41:44.420 Because if the

00:41:45.180 goal of the

00:41:45.780 riots was to

00:41:46.580 decrease racism,

00:41:47.980 of course the

00:41:48.640 opposite happened.

00:41:50.120 Of course.

00:41:51.520 Because, you

00:41:52.600 know, tragically,

00:41:54.300 the protesters are

00:41:56.240 going to get very

00:41:56.960 much of the

00:41:58.000 opposite of what

00:41:58.700 they were protesting

00:41:59.500 for.

00:42:00.700 So, in the

00:42:01.520 making it worse

00:42:02.220 category, this is

00:42:03.080 sort of the

00:42:03.500 world-class, most

00:42:05.440 making it worse

00:42:06.320 thing you could

00:42:06.840 ever do.

00:42:07.700 Now, I think a

00:42:08.220 lot of the

00:42:08.540 protesters are

00:42:10.060 well-intentioned,

00:42:10.940 even most.

00:42:12.000 Maybe most of

00:42:12.720 the protesters are

00:42:13.640 well-intentioned,

00:42:14.900 certainly not the

00:42:15.740 looters, and

00:42:17.320 certainly not

00:42:17.800 Antifa.

00:42:18.920 But a lot of

00:42:19.640 people are

00:42:19.940 well-intentioned.

00:42:21.860 Still, I think

00:42:23.060 you could do a

00:42:23.700 calculation to

00:42:24.580 figure out how

00:42:26.820 many black

00:42:27.900 Americans Antifa

00:42:29.060 will kill over

00:42:30.280 the next ten

00:42:31.000 years compared to

00:42:31.960 the police, and

00:42:33.140 I don't think it

00:42:33.680 will be even

00:42:34.060 close.

00:42:35.280 I think the

00:42:35.820 numbers would be,

00:42:36.900 you know, in

00:42:37.520 rough numbers,

00:42:38.760 it's going to be

00:42:39.240 something like

00:42:39.820 tens of

00:42:40.400 thousands of

00:42:41.280 black Americans

00:42:42.540 will be killed

00:42:43.340 by Antifa

00:42:44.080 through poverty,

00:42:46.360 and maybe a

00:42:48.560 few hundred

00:42:49.400 over ten years

00:42:51.100 would be killed

00:42:51.740 by the police.

00:42:53.100 So I think it's

00:42:53.700 sort of a few

00:42:54.320 hundred that the

00:42:55.180 police are

00:42:55.580 killing to

00:42:56.800 maybe tens of

00:42:57.600 thousands of

00:42:58.520 black Americans

00:42:59.200 that Antifa

00:43:00.080 were killing,

00:43:00.940 and that's not

00:43:01.480 counting the fact

00:43:03.520 that good luck

00:43:04.180 getting a job,

00:43:05.840 because, you

00:43:06.420 know, even if

00:43:07.520 the economy came

00:43:08.280 back, you

00:43:10.000 know, and

00:43:10.620 if you go in

00:43:12.280 for, let me

00:43:12.740 ask you this,

00:43:13.700 I put this

00:43:14.740 poll up just

00:43:17.120 before I went

00:43:17.660 live, so I

00:43:18.300 can check the

00:43:19.180 results, and

00:43:20.220 I'll ask you

00:43:20.960 this, if you

00:43:21.540 were an

00:43:21.820 employer, would

00:43:23.860 you, and

00:43:24.340 somebody came

00:43:25.100 in for a job

00:43:25.860 in the future,

00:43:27.180 and you saw

00:43:28.020 in their social

00:43:28.760 media history

00:43:30.460 that they had

00:43:31.520 participated in

00:43:32.640 the protests in

00:43:33.560 any fashion,

00:43:34.900 in any fashion,

00:43:36.520 it doesn't

00:43:37.080 matter if they

00:43:37.540 were peaceful,

00:43:38.900 it doesn't

00:43:39.300 matter if you

00:43:39.960 know they

00:43:40.320 weren't, just

00:43:41.360 in any

00:43:41.800 fashion, would 0.92

00:43:43.000 you hire

00:43:43.320 them?

00:43:44.760 Would you

00:43:45.280 hire somebody

00:43:46.020 who participated

00:43:47.020 in the

00:43:48.080 protests, knowing

00:43:49.920 that their

00:43:50.400 participation was

00:43:52.260 the shield for

00:43:53.200 the looters

00:43:53.840 in Antifa,

00:43:54.760 knowing that

00:43:55.360 that was

00:43:55.700 certainly going

00:43:56.820 to do that?

00:43:58.400 How many of

00:43:58.900 you would hire

00:43:59.400 somebody who

00:44:00.200 had taken part

00:44:00.940 in that?

00:44:01.700 Because I

00:44:02.220 would go on

00:44:02.580 record as

00:44:03.000 saying I

00:44:03.320 would not,

00:44:05.160 and I think

00:44:06.100 that's important.

00:44:06.980 I would never

00:44:07.420 hire anybody who

00:44:08.560 had participated in

00:44:09.620 any fashion in

00:44:11.080 the protests.

00:44:12.180 Now I might

00:44:12.540 make an

00:44:12.880 exception if

00:44:13.500 it was the

00:44:14.500 first night.

00:44:15.920 If somebody

00:44:16.360 came in for

00:44:16.920 a job and

00:44:17.460 said blah,

00:44:17.880 blah, blah,

00:44:18.140 and I said

00:44:18.500 well, I've

00:44:19.060 looked at your

00:44:19.440 social media,

00:44:20.700 you were at

00:44:21.180 those protests.

00:44:22.280 If they were

00:44:22.960 to argue to

00:44:23.640 me, whoa,

00:44:24.320 no, no,

00:44:24.920 I went the

00:44:25.580 first night.

00:44:27.100 The first

00:44:27.600 night, it

00:44:29.080 was really just

00:44:29.720 a protest.

00:44:30.420 It just

00:44:30.700 devolved.

00:44:32.000 I would take

00:44:32.660 that into

00:44:33.060 consideration,

00:44:34.140 and I would

00:44:34.380 say, oh,

00:44:35.380 okay.

00:44:36.300 So really,

00:44:37.160 if you saw how

00:44:38.220 bad it was

00:44:38.760 after the

00:44:39.120 first night

00:44:39.600 and you

00:44:40.000 adjusted by

00:44:41.380 not going

00:44:41.880 the second

00:44:42.300 night, I

00:44:43.960 could live

00:44:44.240 with that,

00:44:44.780 because maybe

00:44:45.160 that's a

00:44:45.560 good person,

00:44:46.620 good cause,

00:44:48.040 saw that it

00:44:48.820 didn't work

00:44:49.200 out, adjusted,

00:44:51.720 totally.

00:44:52.620 I could live

00:44:53.080 with that.

00:44:54.380 But if they

00:44:54.800 went more

00:44:55.300 than one

00:44:55.720 night after

00:44:56.800 we knew

00:44:57.160 that the

00:44:57.540 rioting was

00:44:58.180 happening,

00:45:00.000 all right,

00:45:00.600 so here's

00:45:01.060 the poll I

00:45:02.180 did online.

00:45:03.300 So of course

00:45:03.720 this is not

00:45:04.280 a scientific

00:45:04.840 poll.

00:45:05.300 I said,

00:45:06.700 would you

00:45:06.900 hire someone

00:45:07.340 whose social

00:45:07.880 media history

00:45:08.480 showed they

00:45:08.900 were part

00:45:09.240 of this

00:45:09.560 week's

00:45:09.920 riot-looting

00:45:10.700 protests?

00:45:12.680 The people

00:45:13.340 who said,

00:45:13.760 of course,

00:45:14.300 they're good

00:45:14.640 people,

00:45:15.600 3%.

00:45:16.420 3% of the

00:45:18.320 people who

00:45:18.660 answered this.

00:45:19.120 Now, of course,

00:45:19.540 these are mostly

00:45:20.060 conservatives who

00:45:20.840 answered, I

00:45:21.280 think.

00:45:22.520 79% said,

00:45:23.860 no, why

00:45:24.340 risk it?

00:45:25.060 And 18%

00:45:26.040 said, just

00:45:27.400 show me the

00:45:27.900 votes.

00:45:28.600 So really,

00:45:29.260 if you get rid

00:45:29.780 of the 18% 0.99

00:45:30.560 who just wanted

00:45:31.180 to see the

00:45:31.640 results,

00:45:32.100 it was

00:45:33.280 79% to

00:45:34.320 3% in

00:45:36.080 favor of

00:45:36.800 they would

00:45:37.360 not hire

00:45:37.900 somebody whose

00:45:38.760 social media

00:45:39.420 history showed

00:45:40.840 that they had

00:45:41.280 been, even

00:45:41.780 an attendee,

00:45:43.280 even just an

00:45:44.140 attendee at

00:45:45.340 the protests.

00:45:46.440 So why is

00:45:48.180 the news not

00:45:48.680 reporting that?

00:45:50.080 Why do you

00:45:50.640 have to hear

00:45:50.940 that from me?

00:45:53.320 Right?

00:45:54.000 The news is

00:45:54.660 no longer the

00:45:55.180 news.

00:45:55.560 The news is

00:45:56.120 now some

00:45:56.500 kind of social

00:45:57.200 programming.

00:45:58.600 You know,

00:45:58.760 the news is

00:45:59.320 programming you.

00:46:01.080 It's not

00:46:01.700 just giving

00:46:03.320 you news.

00:46:04.580 So that's

00:46:07.020 a pretty big

00:46:07.680 story.

00:46:09.240 Now, what

00:46:09.520 does it mean

00:46:09.940 to declare

00:46:10.520 Antifa

00:46:11.040 domestic

00:46:11.580 terrorists?

00:46:13.460 Well, the

00:46:14.380 funny part

00:46:14.980 about it is

00:46:16.040 that the

00:46:16.720 Democrats have

00:46:17.360 been suckered

00:46:17.920 into supporting

00:46:18.680 a terrorist

00:46:19.840 organization

00:46:20.560 publicly.

00:46:22.520 So Kamala

00:46:23.040 Harris is

00:46:23.960 one of the

00:46:24.580 people raising

00:46:26.080 money for

00:46:27.360 a group that

00:46:28.960 has just been

00:46:29.700 declared domestic

00:46:30.540 terrorists. 0.53

00:46:31.040 Now, of

00:46:31.940 course, if

00:46:32.300 you ask

00:46:32.640 Kamala, she'd 1.00

00:46:33.240 say, no, I'm

00:46:33.800 raising money

00:46:34.320 for honest

00:46:36.220 protesters who

00:46:37.580 have a real

00:46:38.000 cause.

00:46:39.160 But unfortunately,

00:46:40.180 she can't

00:46:40.660 distinguish between

00:46:41.820 who's getting

00:46:42.860 bailed out, who

00:46:43.600 is Antifa, and

00:46:44.920 who is a good

00:46:45.480 person who was

00:46:46.100 in the wrong

00:46:46.480 place.

00:46:47.740 So in a very

00:46:49.100 real sense, not

00:46:50.280 even in the

00:46:50.700 political sense,

00:46:51.460 but in a real,

00:46:52.860 direct, accurate,

00:46:54.700 factual sense,

00:46:56.260 Kamala Harris is

00:46:57.060 supporting domestic

00:46:58.300 terrorists. 0.53

00:46:58.880 terrorists. 0.53

00:46:59.980 Now, Trump

00:47:00.780 has managed to

00:47:01.780 be in a

00:47:02.120 position where

00:47:04.100 his opponents

00:47:04.980 are supporting

00:47:06.240 terrorists who

00:47:07.180 are destroying

00:47:07.740 the country.

00:47:08.940 Do you think

00:47:09.780 he can lose

00:47:10.360 election at

00:47:11.260 this point?

00:47:13.500 If things go

00:47:14.560 the way they're

00:47:15.040 going, and

00:47:16.060 Trump becomes

00:47:17.560 the name that

00:47:18.700 is associated

00:47:19.320 with the coming

00:47:20.100 crackdown,

00:47:20.840 because there

00:47:21.080 has to be a

00:47:21.520 crackdown

00:47:21.880 eventually, he

00:47:24.480 almost certainly

00:47:25.080 will be elected

00:47:25.800 in the biggest

00:47:26.620 landslide in

00:47:27.500 American history.

00:47:29.020 Because how

00:47:30.720 many Democrats

00:47:31.420 are watching

00:47:32.420 the carnage and

00:47:33.580 watching their

00:47:34.080 own lives being

00:47:34.780 destroyed by

00:47:36.080 their team?

00:47:38.000 A lot of

00:47:38.600 Democrats just

00:47:39.920 watched their

00:47:40.480 entire lives be

00:47:41.680 destroyed by

00:47:43.060 their own side.

00:47:44.700 And they also

00:47:45.460 watched that none

00:47:46.480 of the Republican

00:47:47.120 cities seem to

00:47:48.280 be even affected.

00:47:50.220 It's hard to

00:47:50.820 not notice.

00:47:53.120 And it's hard

00:47:54.080 to not notice

00:47:54.760 that one team

00:47:56.080 is supporting

00:47:56.840 literally terrorists.

00:47:59.220 Now, what do

00:48:00.520 you do with

00:48:01.160 this?

00:48:01.820 I heard Andrew

00:48:02.600 McCarthy say that

00:48:03.500 there are enough

00:48:04.020 laws on the

00:48:04.660 books already

00:48:05.200 that you don't

00:48:06.100 need to define

00:48:07.340 anybody as a

00:48:08.180 domestic terrorist.

00:48:09.100 It doesn't

00:48:09.340 have any meaning.

00:48:10.720 But what meaning

00:48:11.580 could it have?

00:48:12.860 We could give it

00:48:13.600 meaning.

00:48:14.380 Congress can make

00:48:15.240 new laws, right?

00:48:16.580 We know how to

00:48:17.380 make laws.

00:48:18.360 So let's say we

00:48:19.100 gave it some

00:48:19.700 meaning.

00:48:20.600 What kind of

00:48:21.160 meaning, what

00:48:21.980 kind of powers

00:48:22.780 would you want to

00:48:23.760 attribute to the

00:48:26.040 domestic terrorist

00:48:27.180 designation?

00:48:29.720 Now, of course,

00:48:30.460 the big risk is

00:48:32.040 that once it's

00:48:33.120 even allowed that

00:48:34.500 you could call

00:48:35.040 domestic people

00:48:35.860 terrorists, the

00:48:36.920 moment you allow

00:48:37.760 that, you're open

00:48:38.820 to abuse because

00:48:40.240 then there might be

00:48:41.020 some future group

00:48:42.020 that's not so bad

00:48:42.940 that gets declared

00:48:43.840 terrorist organization

00:48:44.860 because it's

00:48:45.760 politically expedient.

00:48:47.060 So you could see

00:48:48.420 it would be

00:48:48.760 opening Pandora's

00:48:50.980 box, but we

00:48:53.440 also might not

00:48:54.040 have any choice.

00:48:55.100 In other words,

00:48:55.660 the risk-reward

00:48:56.700 here might be

00:48:57.340 that, well, you

00:48:57.920 just have to do

00:48:58.420 it anyway.

00:48:59.700 So what could it

00:49:00.740 mean to be

00:49:01.620 designated a

00:49:02.740 terrorist organization?

00:49:04.120 I'll give you

00:49:04.560 some suggestions.

00:49:06.420 One thing is it

00:49:07.500 could change the

00:49:08.260 sentencing.

00:49:09.560 So I would argue

00:49:10.980 that if somebody

00:49:11.920 is responsible for

00:49:12.940 the deaths of

00:49:13.600 10,000 black

00:49:14.800 Americans, you

00:49:16.060 should be

00:49:16.360 considering the

00:49:17.020 death penalty, 0.51

00:49:18.080 or at the very

00:49:18.920 least, life in

00:49:19.960 prison.

00:49:20.840 So I would

00:49:21.300 think that for

00:49:21.980 Antifa, given

00:49:24.600 that they're

00:49:25.180 destroying the

00:49:25.940 lives of tens

00:49:27.740 of thousands of

00:49:28.400 people, and that

00:49:29.500 they're literally

00:49:30.160 an anti-America

00:49:32.740 treasonous group,

00:49:34.540 that something like

00:49:35.180 the death sentence

00:49:35.940 or life in prison

00:49:37.000 would be

00:49:38.020 appropriate.

00:49:38.740 Now, I don't

00:49:39.060 think any of

00:49:39.560 these things are

00:49:40.100 going to happen.

00:49:41.020 This is just

00:49:41.820 brainstorming.

00:49:44.800 What about

00:49:45.520 banning phones

00:49:47.000 at protests?

00:49:48.720 Now, you can't

00:49:49.560 really ban a

00:49:50.360 phone, but you

00:49:52.060 could turn them

00:49:53.120 off.

00:49:54.200 You could track

00:49:55.200 them.

00:49:55.800 What about

00:49:56.260 tracking them?

00:49:57.320 Let me ask you

00:49:58.000 this.

00:49:59.820 I would say that

00:50:00.980 I have a

00:50:01.980 security interest

00:50:03.180 as an American.

00:50:04.700 I have a

00:50:05.600 security interest

00:50:06.660 in knowing who

00:50:07.760 the Antifa

00:50:08.500 people were, or

00:50:09.860 indeed, knowing

00:50:10.560 who was at the

00:50:11.120 protests in

00:50:11.700 general, because I

00:50:12.760 would like to

00:50:13.220 keep them away

00:50:13.800 from me, because

00:50:14.280 they would be

00:50:14.680 dangerous to

00:50:15.280 me.

00:50:15.840 I think it's a

00:50:16.580 fair statement

00:50:17.080 to say that

00:50:17.600 anybody who

00:50:18.100 attended the

00:50:18.660 protests, not

00:50:19.680 anybody, that's

00:50:20.400 too much, but

00:50:21.440 that the average

00:50:22.480 person who

00:50:23.040 attended the

00:50:23.540 protest would

00:50:24.820 be physically

00:50:25.600 dangerous to

00:50:26.440 me, because

00:50:28.060 they might

00:50:28.460 perceive me to

00:50:29.260 be part of

00:50:30.160 the problem.

00:50:31.480 So, don't I

00:50:33.020 have an interest

00:50:33.660 in knowing where

00:50:34.360 they are and

00:50:35.120 who they are,

00:50:36.080 the same as I

00:50:36.860 have an interest

00:50:37.520 in knowing where

00:50:38.280 a pedophile lives?

00:50:39.860 If you can

00:50:40.640 publish the

00:50:41.560 address and name

00:50:42.700 of a pedophile

00:50:43.560 because there's

00:50:44.900 something special

00:50:45.640 about that

00:50:46.200 crime, that

00:50:48.160 means that if

00:50:49.380 there's something

00:50:49.920 special about

00:50:50.760 some other

00:50:51.280 crime, the

00:50:52.580 door is open.

00:50:53.760 So we have a

00:50:54.460 precedent that in

00:50:55.940 unusual circumstances,

00:50:58.020 the public has

00:50:59.040 such an interest

00:50:59.800 to know that you

00:51:01.100 can violate the

00:51:01.940 privacy of

00:51:03.440 especially bad

00:51:04.440 people such as

00:51:05.580 pedophiles, because

00:51:06.660 the public health

00:51:07.680 interest is just

00:51:08.380 that great.

00:51:08.900 Now, since I'm

00:51:10.200 literally at

00:51:10.900 risk, and so

00:51:12.760 are many of

00:51:13.380 you, from even

00:51:14.520 being in the

00:51:15.080 same room as

00:51:16.160 somebody from

00:51:16.680 Antifa, it's

00:51:17.980 sort of risky at

00:51:18.780 this point, don't

00:51:20.220 I have a

00:51:20.920 citizen's right to

00:51:22.700 know who they

00:51:23.200 are and where

00:51:23.620 they are, and

00:51:24.860 to avoid hiring

00:51:25.840 them?

00:51:26.920 Imagine if you

00:51:27.640 accidentally hired

00:51:28.580 somebody from

00:51:29.140 Antifa and you

00:51:30.100 didn't know it.

00:51:31.860 Well, that's not

00:51:32.480 good for your

00:51:32.960 business, is it?

00:51:33.920 It might not

00:51:34.400 even be good for

00:51:35.360 your health.

00:51:36.520 So I would say

00:51:37.240 that given that

00:51:38.420 we know the

00:51:39.800 government is

00:51:40.660 tracking all of

00:51:41.500 our phones all

00:51:42.220 the time, shouldn't

00:51:43.860 I have a right,

00:51:44.880 again, I'm just

00:51:45.560 brainstorming here,

00:51:46.620 every idea I

00:51:47.660 toss out, I'm

00:51:48.800 well aware that

00:51:50.360 the unintended

00:51:51.220 consequences might

00:51:52.320 be larger than

00:51:53.020 the problem, so

00:51:54.140 you don't need to

00:51:54.700 tell me these are

00:51:55.300 good ideas or

00:51:55.980 bad ideas, we're

00:51:56.760 just brainstorming.

00:51:58.300 So just

00:51:58.980 brainstorming some

00:51:59.800 more, suppose we

00:52:01.380 just made a list

00:52:02.180 of everybody whose

00:52:03.420 phone was at the

00:52:05.080 protests, which

00:52:06.320 would be pretty

00:52:06.740 much everybody,

00:52:07.580 because I don't

00:52:08.000 think too many

00:52:08.540 people were

00:52:09.100 there without

00:52:09.620 phones.

00:52:10.800 So shouldn't I

00:52:11.980 always be able to

00:52:12.880 look at the list,

00:52:13.920 let's say I'm

00:52:14.420 going to hire

00:52:14.780 somebody, shouldn't

00:52:16.120 I be able to

00:52:16.800 check them against

00:52:17.640 the list of

00:52:18.240 people who

00:52:18.640 attended?

00:52:19.440 Now I could ask

00:52:20.300 questions and say

00:52:21.120 why did you

00:52:21.680 attend?

00:52:22.660 They might say I

00:52:23.600 was shocked by the

00:52:24.660 murder of a black

00:52:26.040 man, I just wanted

00:52:27.020 to show my

00:52:27.640 participation, and

00:52:30.080 you might say

00:52:30.580 good enough, I

00:52:31.840 agree with that,

00:52:33.060 you're on board.

00:52:34.520 Maybe, I mean it

00:52:35.340 would be up to

00:52:35.680 you, but I

00:52:37.000 do think that

00:52:37.620 the employer is

00:52:39.720 owed that

00:52:40.400 information for

00:52:42.040 health and safety

00:52:42.800 reasons, because I

00:52:45.180 think you could

00:52:45.660 identify somebody

00:52:46.540 who's actually

00:52:47.260 Antifa if you're

00:52:48.360 talking to them.

00:52:49.520 It probably isn't

00:52:50.420 that hard to

00:52:51.580 identify Antifa if

00:52:53.620 you're looking for

00:52:54.300 it, you know, if you

00:52:55.380 know what to look

00:52:55.860 for.

00:52:56.640 So I would just

00:52:57.440 put that out there.

00:52:58.420 The phones of all

00:52:59.760 the people at the

00:53:00.340 protests, we could

00:53:01.840 easily identify where

00:53:04.480 they were and

00:53:05.420 when.

00:53:06.060 Now you could

00:53:06.540 also do it a

00:53:07.240 clever way, which 0.81

00:53:08.560 is you could say

00:53:09.180 there's a public

00:53:09.840 health need because

00:53:15.240 of coronavirus.

00:53:17.060 Would you not

00:53:18.400 like to know if

00:53:19.980 you're coming in

00:53:20.580 physical contact

00:53:21.620 with anybody who

00:53:22.480 came in physical

00:53:23.200 contact with

00:53:24.200 thousands of

00:53:25.300 protesters?

00:53:26.660 Yeah.

00:53:27.340 I think you have

00:53:28.180 a legitimate right

00:53:29.020 to know if

00:53:30.180 somebody intentionally

00:53:31.440 put themselves in a

00:53:32.820 highly infectious

00:53:33.760 situation for your

00:53:35.760 own health.

00:53:36.740 I think you have

00:53:37.280 a right to know

00:53:37.760 that.

00:53:39.120 Is it likely that

00:53:40.500 any of these things

00:53:41.240 will happen?

00:53:41.800 I'd say no, not

00:53:43.000 likely at all.

00:53:44.820 What if domestic

00:53:46.720 terrorists lose

00:53:48.400 their right to

00:53:49.000 privacy just the

00:53:50.020 way foreign

00:53:50.700 terrorists do?

00:53:51.820 Foreign terrorists 0.99

00:53:52.560 don't have any

00:53:53.280 American privacy

00:53:54.480 rights.

00:53:55.960 But suppose the

00:53:56.600 domestic terrorists,

00:53:57.840 just for a mental

00:53:59.660 experiment, suppose

00:54:01.100 they lost their

00:54:02.040 rights of privacy as

00:54:03.120 well.

00:54:03.760 Their phones were

00:54:05.240 tracked, their

00:54:05.840 social media was

00:54:06.680 tracked, etc.

00:54:10.040 Would that

00:54:10.880 happen?

00:54:11.660 I don't know.

00:54:12.260 Just brainstorming.

00:54:13.820 Suppose we did to

00:54:15.700 domestic terrorists

00:54:16.760 the same thing we

00:54:17.580 do to foreign 0.98

00:54:19.620 terrorists, which is

00:54:20.520 disrupt their

00:54:21.500 economic network.

00:54:24.140 There are literally

00:54:25.000 GoFundMe accounts

00:54:26.160 for terrorists.

00:54:28.040 What?

00:54:28.940 That's right.

00:54:30.200 There are public

00:54:31.300 GoFundMe accounts

00:54:32.620 for Antifa who

00:54:35.040 are domestic

00:54:35.580 terrorists. 0.53

00:54:36.820 Why do we allow

00:54:37.460 that?

00:54:38.160 So certainly there's

00:54:39.080 something we can do

00:54:39.780 with the finances,

00:54:40.940 something with the

00:54:41.640 penalties, something

00:54:42.480 with privacy and

00:54:43.880 identification.

00:54:45.420 I don't think any of

00:54:46.620 them who will be

00:54:47.280 identified, if you

00:54:48.900 could identify them,

00:54:50.140 certainly employers

00:54:51.480 know not to hire them,

00:54:52.580 so that's pretty bad.

00:54:53.580 Now, I would say

00:54:54.860 that the news

00:54:55.600 business is, I

00:54:59.120 think, violating a

00:55:00.180 public trust, and

00:55:02.600 this is both the

00:55:03.340 left and the right.

00:55:04.400 I think both the

00:55:05.280 left and the right

00:55:05.960 are violating a

00:55:07.740 public trust by not

00:55:09.780 reporting the true

00:55:12.460 statistics of crime

00:55:13.920 so that they sort of

00:55:15.380 let it stay out

00:55:16.100 there that black 1.00

00:55:17.300 people are killed

00:55:18.140 at a higher rate

00:55:18.880 by cops.

00:55:20.060 Allowing that to be

00:55:21.380 believed by the

00:55:23.360 public is such an

00:55:26.280 abrogation of

00:55:27.460 responsibility that I

00:55:29.160 would think the

00:55:29.700 FTC could pull their

00:55:31.100 licenses, or the FCC

00:55:32.660 or whatever, whoever.

00:55:34.400 There must be

00:55:34.780 somebody who could

00:55:35.300 pull some kind of a

00:55:36.080 license for that kind

00:55:37.040 of bad behavior.

00:55:39.140 Because the public is

00:55:40.620 required to know that

00:55:41.900 these protesters are

00:55:43.360 dangerous, both in

00:55:45.900 terms of virus and in

00:55:47.600 terms of just being

00:55:48.580 around them.

00:55:49.220 They're terrorists.

00:55:49.720 terrorists, and the

00:55:50.920 people who march with

00:55:51.640 them, of course, are

00:55:52.620 supportive of terrorists

00:55:54.040 by definition.

00:55:56.620 They don't have to mean

00:55:57.740 they're supportive.

00:55:58.740 It doesn't mean their 0.98

00:55:59.420 intention is to be

00:56:00.380 supportive, but they

00:56:01.200 are, and they made

00:56:02.360 that choice.

00:56:05.540 So where, and I said

00:56:07.340 it before, where are my

00:56:08.240 data projections?

00:56:09.520 We've got a million

00:56:10.420 estimates for what's

00:56:12.020 going to happen with

00:56:12.720 global warming.

00:56:13.900 We saw all these

00:56:14.840 estimates of who's

00:56:16.020 going to die from the

00:56:16.760 coronavirus.

00:56:17.120 We have estimates and

00:56:18.940 data and graphs for

00:56:20.360 every freaking thing

00:56:21.340 under the sun.

00:56:22.500 The only one that

00:56:23.320 matters today, the only

00:56:25.280 one that matters, is

00:56:26.680 this graph of how many

00:56:27.800 black people Antifa are 0.82

00:56:29.260 killing.

00:56:30.780 Because if the news were

00:56:32.480 reporting that fact, or

00:56:34.280 even just talking about

00:56:35.320 the question, imagine

00:56:36.940 that CNN had a panel

00:56:38.360 discussion, and let's

00:56:40.080 say it got picked up by

00:56:41.020 the other news, and the

00:56:42.380 discussion went like

00:56:43.360 this.

00:56:43.680 Well, we've run the

00:56:45.020 numbers, and there's

00:56:46.540 some dispute about the

00:56:48.660 estimates, because there

00:56:49.600 always are, but in

00:56:51.580 general terms, it looks

00:56:52.680 like Antifa will kill

00:56:53.860 tens of thousands of

00:56:54.920 black Americans through

00:56:56.400 their destruction of

00:56:57.920 economic resources, and

00:57:01.180 of course, make racism

00:57:03.460 much, much worse.

00:57:04.680 I mean, you can measure

00:57:05.780 that with polls, so

00:57:06.940 where's that?

00:57:08.780 And then, of course,

00:57:09.760 these people will never

00:57:10.500 get jobs once they're

00:57:12.400 identified, and eventually

00:57:13.840 we'll be able to identify

00:57:14.960 them all one way or the

00:57:15.960 other.

00:57:16.900 Where's the news reporting

00:57:18.900 those basic facts?

00:57:20.700 Because those are the

00:57:21.480 basic facts that would

00:57:22.600 reduce the temperature and

00:57:23.960 help things, because it

00:57:25.320 would discourage people

00:57:26.780 from continuing to do

00:57:28.080 these things.

00:57:29.280 But the news is kind of

00:57:31.400 actively encouraging it, I

00:57:33.560 would say.

00:57:35.000 Yeah, Larry Elder has

00:57:36.200 been one of the, probably

00:57:40.160 one of the only honest

00:57:41.300 voices in this whole

00:57:43.640 situation, because he's a

00:57:45.700 black man and he's a

00:57:46.760 conservative, so he's

00:57:48.360 capable, you know, he's

00:57:49.400 got this sort of a safe

00:57:52.200 position where he can say

00:57:53.620 things that are true.

00:57:55.700 You know, I think we've

00:57:56.960 come to the point that the

00:57:58.360 only people who can tell

00:57:59.420 the truth in public are

00:58:00.740 black conservatives.

00:58:02.960 Think about that.

00:58:04.940 That'll blow your mind when

00:58:06.400 you think about it a little

00:58:07.240 longer.

00:58:07.940 The only people who are 0.88

00:58:09.120 allowed, even allowed, to

00:58:11.440 tell the truth in public

00:58:14.060 are black conservatives.

00:58:16.660 Because they can say things

00:58:17.820 white conservatives can't

00:58:18.880 say, and the other side is

00:58:21.660 just lying.

00:58:22.500 So, how about that?

00:58:28.660 All right.

00:58:29.560 Let me just check my notes and

00:58:31.040 see if I missed anything

00:58:32.020 exciting.

00:58:32.500 And we've got police

00:58:37.140 shootings in Las Vegas.

00:58:41.240 DJ Dr. Funk Juice reminds me,

00:58:44.740 he's a Vegas resident, that

00:58:46.800 police were actually targeted

00:58:48.700 last night.

00:58:49.960 Police were targeted and shot

00:58:51.820 last night.

00:58:53.340 Now, how much longer are we

00:58:56.560 willing to go?

00:58:57.440 Oh, yeah, Jesse Lee Peterson

00:58:59.660 is another truth teller.

00:59:01.920 Very, very interesting man.

00:59:04.100 Very interesting man.

00:59:05.720 Jesse Lee Peterson is one of

00:59:06.940 the most interesting people.

00:59:08.420 I spent a little time with

00:59:09.440 him.

00:59:09.760 He did an interview when I

00:59:10.740 was on a book tour.

00:59:12.140 And there is something about

00:59:13.520 that guy that is really,

00:59:17.220 I don't know, he's got that

00:59:18.620 X factor.

00:59:19.340 He's just got something going

00:59:20.340 on.

00:59:20.700 I love that guy.

00:59:21.320 Yeah, Candace Owens can tell 1.00

00:59:27.520 the truth, although she gets

00:59:28.660 she gets a lot of social

00:59:30.780 blowback from it.

00:59:32.820 All right.

00:59:35.140 Somebody says, good to know

00:59:37.220 because I'm a black

00:59:38.080 conservative and you can

00:59:40.240 tell the truth.

00:59:42.560 Clinton is in court today

00:59:44.020 for what?

00:59:46.700 Scott, can you find the laws

00:59:48.400 on shooting terrorists?

00:59:49.920 Well, I don't think we're

00:59:50.820 going to see any laws that

00:59:52.100 would allow domestic

00:59:53.500 terrorists to be shot.

00:59:55.460 I think you can rule that

00:59:56.660 out.

01:00:00.180 Estimate is that 8 to 10

01:00:01.520 innocent people are dead

01:00:02.680 from the riots.

01:00:03.600 That's the small number.

01:00:05.100 I think that's worth

01:00:05.880 reporting.

01:00:06.920 But the big number is what

01:00:08.640 the economic devastation

01:00:10.180 will do.

01:00:11.040 So I'm going to be

01:00:12.100 advocating that we see

01:00:13.640 those numbers just in the

01:00:14.900 interest of knowing the

01:00:16.000 whole story.

01:00:17.580 Yeah, we want to know the

01:00:18.660 whole story.

01:00:19.200 We want to know how many

01:00:21.260 black people Antifa has

01:00:23.440 killed.

01:00:24.800 Now, I was thinking that

01:00:25.980 maybe the only, if you try

01:00:27.740 to game this out and think,

01:00:30.020 what is the, how do you get

01:00:31.360 past this?

01:00:33.240 My best guess is like the

01:00:35.660 coronavirus, there are some

01:00:36.940 things where the energy

01:00:38.060 itself just dissipates after a

01:00:39.780 time.

01:00:40.400 So it could be that after a

01:00:43.260 certain amount of destruction,

01:00:44.400 the energy just dissipates.

01:00:45.740 That would be cool.

01:00:47.680 But there are certainly smart

01:00:49.520 people such as Rudy Giuliani

01:00:51.420 and people who understand

01:00:52.820 crime and criminal minds and

01:00:54.900 that sort of thing, who say

01:00:56.660 that as long as the criminals

01:00:58.880 keep getting away with it, the 0.99

01:01:00.480 looting in particular, especially

01:01:02.300 the gang looting, which is what

01:01:03.840 makes it safe, they loot in such

01:01:05.880 large numbers that the police

01:01:07.240 wisely just step back because

01:01:09.980 there's nothing you can do.

01:01:10.960 They're so outnumbered.

01:01:11.800 And you don't want people to

01:01:13.700 get hurt over merchandise.

01:01:16.300 So the looters have come up

01:01:18.320 with a business model that we

01:01:20.180 don't have any response to.

01:01:22.160 Because if you don't actually

01:01:23.640 kill them, why would they

01:01:25.960 stop?

01:01:26.680 Because you can't arrest them.

01:01:28.160 And even if you arrested a few,

01:01:30.020 so many would not be arrested.

01:01:31.700 It would still be a good risk

01:01:32.960 reward.

01:01:33.900 So right now, the business model

01:01:35.280 of the looters is the superior

01:01:37.040 business model.

01:01:38.300 They just come in large numbers.

01:01:39.880 They use social media.

01:01:40.820 They get some stuff.

01:01:42.360 They go home.

01:01:43.000 There's no real risk to them

01:01:45.080 except, of course, the total

01:01:46.120 destruction of the economy,

01:01:47.440 which will catch up to them

01:01:48.560 eventually.

01:01:49.640 But the police don't have a

01:01:51.180 response to that.

01:01:51.980 So if you're trying to say,

01:01:53.340 all right, so where does this

01:01:54.440 go?

01:01:55.500 One way is that police get

01:01:57.820 better tools.

01:01:59.240 You know, and maybe they

01:02:00.600 prevent things early and they

01:02:02.640 just figure out how to be more

01:02:03.880 clever and more effective.

01:02:05.460 That's certainly some of that

01:02:07.260 will happen.

01:02:08.260 Meaning that there's no doubt

01:02:09.800 that the police will become

01:02:11.020 more effective and will bring

01:02:13.360 in new tools.

01:02:14.220 We don't know what they are yet.

01:02:15.500 But we don't know if they'll be

01:02:16.340 effective.

01:02:18.760 Suppose that doesn't work.

01:02:20.920 Suppose the business model of the

01:02:22.740 looters just is so good that it

01:02:24.900 goes from store to store to store

01:02:26.700 and it's just every night.

01:02:28.860 And once they've robbed your town,

01:02:30.320 they just pick a new town until all

01:02:32.580 the towns are robbed to nothing.

01:02:35.020 What would stop them?

01:02:37.240 Because it's working.

01:02:39.220 As long as it works, why would you

01:02:40.820 stop doing it?

01:02:41.740 People do things that work.

01:02:43.600 The only thing I can think of,

01:02:46.080 and now imagine if they started

01:02:48.360 shooting people or getting tough on

01:02:51.520 protesters, eventually a black person

01:02:54.180 would be killed by a policeman.

01:02:56.120 What happens if one black person, 0.94

01:02:58.900 no matter what they were doing,

01:03:00.600 no matter the situation, if one black 0.85

01:03:03.120 person gets killed by one police

01:03:04.920 officer, even justified, what's

01:03:07.760 going to happen?

01:03:09.320 The whole cities will just go up in

01:03:11.740 flames.

01:03:12.980 Now, you could argue that it shouldn't

01:03:15.020 and blah, blah, blah, but it would.

01:03:17.200 You know it would.

01:03:18.620 So I got a feeling that the only way

01:03:20.820 this ends is by taking out Antifa

01:03:24.400 in whatever way that can happen.

01:03:27.200 So Antifa is the weak link, meaning

01:03:30.160 that the black people are not going 1.00

01:03:31.880 to support Antifa.

01:03:33.720 Why would they?

01:03:34.660 Because Antifa is literally killing

01:03:36.260 them by tens of thousands right now.

01:03:39.080 You know, it'll take a while for the

01:03:40.240 deaths, but what they're doing

01:03:41.940 guarantees the deaths of tens of

01:03:43.720 thousands of African Americans.

01:03:45.620 So I would think the black community 0.98

01:03:47.820 would be perfectly happy if the, you

01:03:51.820 know, if the government just went

01:03:53.500 tough on Antifa, because that would

01:03:55.720 take enough of the energy and of the

01:03:57.860 situation, then maybe that makes your

01:04:01.300 other tools more effective.

01:04:02.880 But you've got to remove energy from

01:04:05.140 the situation, and that's the weakest

01:04:07.220 link.

01:04:08.180 So I would say Antifa is the weak link.

01:04:10.080 You've got to go after that hard, and

01:04:12.540 then see if you have enough tools to

01:04:14.020 deal with whatever's left.

01:04:18.900 Let's see.

01:04:19.640 Legally, can the FBI treat the Antifa

01:04:21.580 like the Unabomber, McVeigh, or serial

01:04:24.380 killers?

01:04:24.940 I would think so.

01:04:26.500 I would think so.

01:04:28.220 Yeah.

01:04:29.700 Difference being the immediacy of the

01:04:32.320 actual crime.

01:04:36.420 Why are there George Floyd-inspired

01:04:38.740 protests in Europe?

01:04:40.080 I'm a bit baffled.

01:04:41.060 Somebody says, well, let me explain

01:04:43.240 that to you.

01:04:44.320 It's not about George Floyd.

01:04:46.440 It's really not.

01:04:48.040 And the European protests prove that.

01:04:51.380 Now, which is not to say that there

01:04:53.420 aren't lots of protesters who are there

01:04:55.140 for that explicit reason.

01:04:58.020 George Floyd, there are plenty of

01:04:59.140 them.

01:05:00.140 But that's not what's causing the

01:05:02.600 problem.

01:05:03.820 It's not the genuine, good-intentioned

01:05:07.080 people who want to protest against

01:05:09.500 discrimination and racism.

01:05:12.080 They're not the problem.

01:05:13.740 We could have them marching all day

01:05:15.400 long.

01:05:15.740 I'll march with them.

01:05:17.040 It's the looters and the Antifa, of 1.00

01:05:19.400 course.

01:05:20.040 So Europe has plenty of potential

01:05:21.820 looters, plenty of potential Antifa.

01:05:24.760 They had their own lockdown.

01:05:26.420 They've got lots of young people.

01:05:28.040 If you've got lots of young people

01:05:29.440 with too much energy, especially

01:05:30.840 males, they need to go break stuff. 1.00

01:05:35.260 Unfortunately, if we could be sexist

01:05:38.000 for a moment, young males, every type,

01:05:42.460 nothing racist here, but young males

01:05:45.280 of every type everywhere in the world,

01:05:47.080 if they don't have anything

01:05:49.040 productive to do, like go to work

01:05:51.800 or go to war, they're going to break

01:05:53.920 stuff.

01:05:55.020 It's built into the model.

01:05:56.640 They don't have any, there's just too

01:05:57.820 much energy there, and it's not always

01:05:59.620 productive energy.

01:06:01.340 So, somebody says restitution.

01:06:05.520 I don't know what that means.

01:06:06.760 But I can tell you that reparations is

01:06:09.020 over as a topic.

01:06:11.960 You know, I had been supportive of

01:06:13.960 reparations as at least a conversation.

01:06:17.240 You know, my idea of it was not to give

01:06:19.260 cash payments in any way, but maybe

01:06:21.540 target improving education in some way

01:06:24.820 as the form of reparations.

01:06:27.540 In other words, giving African Americans 1.00

01:06:29.360 some kind of advantage for funding,

01:06:32.400 you know, some kind of college experience

01:06:35.500 as sort of a reparations.

01:06:38.220 Now, I'm not saying that was a good idea.

01:06:40.200 I was just sort of trying to brainstorm

01:06:42.300 to find if there was anything, any weird

01:06:45.560 combination of ideas that would get something

01:06:48.440 like reparations, but would not be odious

01:06:51.560 to the political right.

01:06:53.580 I never came up with one.

01:06:55.620 Certainly, I never got close.

01:06:57.600 But I was willing to embarrass myself

01:07:01.200 by that conversation.

01:07:03.000 Here again, lack of ego is useful.

01:07:05.340 Because it's a conversation that you get in a lot

01:07:07.200 of trouble.

01:07:08.120 You get a lot of trouble telling conservatives

01:07:11.140 they should at least engage in the conversation

01:07:13.360 of reparations.

01:07:14.780 That's not a comfortable place to be.

01:07:16.780 But of course, I don't care.

01:07:19.180 However, as I promised you yesterday,

01:07:21.620 if there was another night of looting

01:07:24.180 because the protesters are so uncaring,

01:07:27.900 the protesters are so uncaring

01:07:30.420 that they would create a situation

01:07:31.940 that guarantees this death and looting,

01:07:34.420 I said that I would abandon

01:07:36.460 the African-American community

01:07:38.800 in terms of helping.

01:07:40.400 So today, that goes into effect.

01:07:43.340 So I would say that the first thing is

01:07:44.900 reparations are off the table.

01:07:47.340 These are the reparations.

01:07:48.880 Let me say that again.

01:07:50.680 This is the reparations.

01:07:52.980 The cost, the economic cost of this

01:07:55.300 will be far greater than whatever checks

01:07:58.140 could ever be written for reparations.

01:08:01.080 All right?

01:08:02.420 I mean, I would look to an economist

01:08:03.820 to actually do me the math,

01:08:05.400 but I think we just had the reparations.

01:08:08.140 These are the reparations.

01:08:09.740 Because it's so expensive to build back

01:08:11.760 these businesses and recover

01:08:13.260 that I would imagine we're talking

01:08:16.240 something in the trillion-dollar range

01:08:17.980 just from these riots.

01:08:19.360 Probably a trillion.

01:08:20.740 And I can't imagine that reparations

01:08:22.820 would have ever reached a trillion dollars.

01:08:26.000 So somebody said,

01:08:27.840 Ed Latimer can help with that.

01:08:29.200 There's nothing to help with.

01:08:30.200 Reparations are done.

01:08:32.340 Reparations are an historical fact.

01:08:36.380 There's nothing you have to talk about

01:08:37.580 in the future.

01:08:38.560 That conversation is completely gone.

01:08:44.720 And likewise, I just can't have any empathy.

01:08:48.300 I would say that while it is true,

01:08:50.920 it's always good to start with this.

01:08:52.520 No, actually, I'm going to go...

01:08:55.400 I was trying to control my temper this morning

01:08:58.120 because I just don't think it's good

01:09:00.540 to have too much temper.

01:09:03.300 So I'm going to bring my temperature down

01:09:05.740 and then I'm going to make a criticism

01:09:07.600 of Black Lives Matter.

01:09:10.240 Compare the slogan,

01:09:12.360 Black Lives Matter,

01:09:13.800 to I have a dream.

01:09:16.100 I have a dream is just perfect persuasion

01:09:18.560 in every way.

01:09:19.640 Everybody likes it.

01:09:20.700 There's nothing to dislike.

01:09:22.320 It doesn't cause a fight.

01:09:24.360 Nothing like that.

01:09:26.780 When I hear Black Lives Matter, 0.99

01:09:29.520 does that feel like I have a dream?

01:09:32.780 Does Black Lives Matter feel like the same message

01:09:35.960 as Martin Luther King

01:09:38.180 that everybody should be equal?

01:09:40.860 We're heading in that direction.

01:09:42.140 Nobody disagrees. 0.81

01:09:43.540 Let's get there together.

01:09:44.620 Versus Black Lives Matter. 0.97

01:09:48.640 Because what do you hear

01:09:49.940 when you hear Black Lives Matter?

01:09:53.660 I'll tell you what I hear.

01:09:55.520 I hear that white lives don't matter. 0.80

01:09:58.900 Now, is that what they're saying?

01:10:00.000 No.

01:10:00.880 No, they're not saying that.

01:10:02.480 They're not saying that at all.

01:10:04.620 But it's what I hear.

01:10:06.700 When you hear,

01:10:07.520 when you hear,

01:10:08.520 I have a dream,

01:10:10.340 do you have,

01:10:10.820 does that sound anything like

01:10:12.400 that's negative for anybody?

01:10:15.100 No.

01:10:16.160 It's explicitly positive for everyone.

01:10:19.840 And indeed,

01:10:20.580 Martin Luther King included everyone

01:10:22.660 when he talked about it.

01:10:24.340 Everybody, white and black,

01:10:25.840 you know,

01:10:26.160 you can rise to whatever level.

01:10:28.380 He explicitly included everybody

01:10:30.500 as being valuable.

01:10:32.800 That is why Martin Luther King 0.87

01:10:35.460 has a holiday

01:10:37.280 and Black Lives Matter

01:10:39.840 doesn't even have a leader.

01:10:43.040 That's the difference.

01:10:44.040 Black Lives Matter,

01:10:46.060 the phrase,

01:10:48.440 Black Lives Matter,

01:10:49.780 is destructive.

01:10:52.100 It's destructive to civilization.

01:10:55.440 I had a dream

01:10:56.300 is productive.

01:10:58.260 And here I'm only talking

01:10:59.100 about persuasion.

01:11:00.400 So if you're new to it,

01:11:01.720 if you're new to these periscopes,

01:11:03.240 on a persuasion level,

01:11:05.040 the phrase,

01:11:05.980 Black Lives Matter,

01:11:06.820 makes things worse.

01:11:07.760 Because what do white people say

01:11:11.120 when they hear it?

01:11:12.320 All lives matter.

01:11:14.040 What do black people say 1.00

01:11:15.200 when they hear all lives matter?

01:11:17.320 You're not taking us seriously.

01:11:19.420 I hate you now.

01:11:20.580 No,

01:11:20.940 I hate you for bringing up a problem

01:11:22.500 that wasn't a problem.

01:11:23.740 No,

01:11:24.000 I hate you.

01:11:25.240 Black Lives Matter

01:11:26.160 is a divisive,

01:11:27.460 it's a divisive identity.

01:11:31.740 It's divisive.

01:11:32.820 Now,

01:11:33.240 I don't know that it was meant to be.

01:11:35.080 I don't think that anybody

01:11:35.900 thought down and said,

01:11:36.780 let me give,

01:11:38.220 let me come up with a good divisive slogan.

01:11:41.060 But they came up with one.

01:11:42.320 In fact,

01:11:43.300 it might be

01:11:43.920 possibly

01:11:46.140 the worst slogan of all time,

01:11:49.760 maybe,

01:11:50.140 because of the destruction

01:11:51.160 it's going to cause.

01:11:52.580 So I think Black Lives Matter,

01:11:54.020 as a slogan,

01:11:56.000 probably will kill lots of black people. 1.00

01:11:58.660 You know,

01:11:58.880 I think it will be anti-productive

01:12:00.880 because it creates division,

01:12:02.620 which creates more racism,

01:12:03.880 which creates everything bad.

01:12:05.340 If Black Lives Matter 0.99

01:12:06.460 simply rebranded as

01:12:08.660 All Lives Matter,

01:12:10.320 there wouldn't be any riots.

01:12:13.000 It would sort of be over.

01:12:14.920 If Black Lives Matter 0.99

01:12:15.980 rebranded themselves

01:12:17.680 as All Lives Matter,

01:12:19.900 I'd be marching.

01:12:21.960 I'd be marching.

01:12:24.760 But if you want to make it

01:12:26.420 about yourself,

01:12:27.800 I think you have

01:12:29.000 every right to do that

01:12:30.040 because every group

01:12:30.940 gets to take care

01:12:32.000 of its community.

01:12:33.260 Every right to do that.

01:12:34.540 Don't have a complaint

01:12:35.300 with that at all.

01:12:36.080 I'm just giving you

01:12:36.840 some persuasion advice.

01:12:39.060 I'm not giving you

01:12:40.160 life advice.

01:12:42.760 I'm not telling you

01:12:43.640 what you think.

01:12:44.860 I'm not telling you

01:12:45.480 what you should think.

01:12:46.640 Nothing like that.

01:12:47.860 You know,

01:12:48.100 everybody gets to make

01:12:48.980 their own decisions

01:12:49.980 in this world.

01:12:51.400 I'm only telling you

01:12:52.520 that if you want it

01:12:53.480 to be effective,

01:12:54.720 you need to be effective

01:12:56.060 with white people

01:12:57.700 because otherwise

01:12:58.980 you're just talking

01:12:59.840 to yourself.

01:13:01.260 And Black Lives Matter

01:13:02.320 is a message

01:13:03.060 from black people

01:13:03.980 to black people.

01:13:05.080 When white people hear it,

01:13:07.100 it's divisive.

01:13:07.900 If you want to be divisive,

01:13:10.680 just start some protests

01:13:12.720 that you know

01:13:13.200 are going to bring

01:13:13.760 Antifa and looters

01:13:15.040 and let us film all that

01:13:17.060 so that we can make

01:13:17.880 racism much, much worse

01:13:19.460 because that's what happened.

01:13:21.340 So I would say

01:13:22.140 that Black Lives Matter

01:13:23.160 is a failed,

01:13:24.820 destructive organization

01:13:27.420 with good intentions.

01:13:29.840 Good intentions

01:13:30.720 for, you know,

01:13:32.100 the vast majority

01:13:33.360 of people

01:13:33.780 who are associated.

01:13:35.820 All good intentions.

01:13:37.640 But execution,

01:13:39.420 a solid failure.

01:13:41.820 All right.

01:13:43.040 That's for today.

01:13:45.180 Let's see how this plays out.

01:13:47.340 And I told you

01:13:49.460 that I wasn't going to do

01:13:50.400 evening periscopes anymore

01:13:51.680 because the coronavirus

01:13:53.120 shutdown was winding down.

01:13:55.540 But then I got a curfew

01:13:57.040 last night.

01:13:58.580 Even where I live.

01:14:00.280 I live in like

01:14:00.940 the safest place

01:14:01.980 in the whole world.

01:14:02.840 Even I had a curfew.

01:14:04.520 Frickin' curfew.

01:14:05.480 I broke the curfew,

01:14:06.380 of course.

01:14:08.100 I'm not going to pay attention

01:14:09.140 to a curfew in my town.

01:14:10.860 But, you know,

01:14:11.980 it's not like there's

01:14:12.620 any risk around here.

01:14:14.240 But the fact that

01:14:15.940 there was a curfew

01:14:16.880 makes me think

01:14:17.700 maybe I should do

01:14:18.340 some evening periscopes,

01:14:20.720 but I haven't decided

01:14:21.340 on that yet.

01:14:22.460 All right.

01:14:24.600 Yeah, people get very angry

01:14:25.940 when you say

01:14:26.400 all lives matter.

01:14:27.260 It's a divisive slogan.

01:14:29.460 That's all for now.

01:14:30.940 I'll talk to you later.

01:14:31.760 I'll talk to you later.
