Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! Happy Thanksgiving, by the way, and Happy Holidays! This is a special Thanksgiving edition of the dopamine hit of the day, the special Thanksgiving version of the simultaneous sip. Join us for a cup or mug of coffee, and join us for the hit-of-the-day: The Dopamine Hit of the Day: The Special Thanksgiving Version of the Single Sip.
00:13:30.400No, it was caused by a man who happened to have a car, right?
00:13:35.740And presumably, because times have changed, maybe a little bit too much, that there's so much sensitivity about even mentioning the ethnicity of the driver,
00:13:52.620which, to be fair, should not be... doesn't have anything to do with the story that I know of.
00:13:57.580Now, he was considered a racist, and he did kill white people, but I don't know that that had anything to do with it.
00:14:03.880I mean, that might have been... he might have been just somebody who runs over people and also somebody who's a racist.
00:14:10.880So, that's your second primer story, that the news is treating this perpetrator as if somehow the car did it themselves.
00:14:19.560I mean, not really, but the way they write it.
00:14:21.960They are so softening the responsibility here.
00:14:58.380So, if I get a fact wrong, let me know.
00:15:01.200But, so three white men thought that he had fit the description of somebody who had robbed some stuff in the neighborhood, burglarized.
00:15:09.480And so, they went after him with at least one gun that was the fatal one that shot him.
00:15:14.880And they got into it, and they trapped him with the cars, and they tried to do a citizen's arrest.
00:15:20.800I guess Ahmaud, at one point, grabbed the barrel of the gun, at which point the person holding it pulled the trigger in the struggle and killed it.
00:15:29.180Now, all three people were found guilty of various life sentence type problems, murderish stuff.
00:15:40.780Now, yeah, now first of all, number one, does anybody here think he was a jogger?
00:15:59.440But it could tell you, you know, about his intentions, which might, I mean, I guess you could imagine that it would make the citizen's arrest more appropriate.
00:16:09.640But it shouldn't matter, because whether it was the right guy or the wrong guy, what happened happened, right?
00:16:35.860And he was accused of walking through, or trespassing, I guess, in a construction site, which, when I built my house, I'm looking at your answers coming across.
00:16:47.740When I built my house, my neighbors all, I think they all toured through the construction site at one point or another.
00:16:55.960So I'm not going to say he's guilty of anything for looking at a construction site, because what the hell was he going to steal from a construction site?
00:17:19.040But none of that seems to be too terribly important to the actual alleged crime here.
00:17:25.960All right, so I saw a bunch of different opinions, whether he was guilty or not.
00:17:32.040But I also heard in the news a lot of people saying, you know, 11 white people on a jury, and they still convicted these white guys, so justice was done.
00:17:44.680How many of you would say justice was done in your comments?
00:18:21.420So maybe somebody can help me with these questions.
00:18:24.360Number one, we all agree that ignorance of the law is no excuse, right?
00:18:30.980If you thought something was legal, or you just didn't know there was any law one way or the other, and you committed a crime, you still go to jail, right?
00:18:42.600Now, unfortunately, even though your sense of fairness might not like that, unfortunately, the system has to work that way.
00:18:53.800Because otherwise, everybody would say, well, I didn't know.
00:19:10.920That you really couldn't have a system unless you don't let people say, oh, I didn't know it was illegal.
00:19:17.580But what about a system where the people knew the law?
00:19:23.800What about the people, there's no ignorance here.
00:19:27.240What about people actually knowing the law?
00:19:30.380And then in their own judgment, completely knowing the law, they observe their own actions, and they say, I know the law, and I know my actions, and I didn't see a problem.
00:19:47.080Suppose somebody else says they broke the law, but in their own opinion, they didn't, because they also know the law, and they know what they did.
00:19:56.620They didn't break the law, in their opinion.
00:20:06.140Suppose the, let's say the, and I realize this, you know, I'm mixing together felonies and non-felonies and stuff, but just think this through.
00:20:17.240If the speedometer of your car was defective, and you, and let's say it was off by 15 miles per hour, and you got a ticket, but somehow you could prove later that your speedometer was defective.
00:20:33.420And let's say the court actually believed it.
00:25:35.220I think that they thought they were doing something that wasn't just legal, it was extra-legal, like they were doing extra, as if they were doing the police job for them, legally, because they could do a citizen's arrest.
00:25:52.200Now, how do you do a citizen's arrest if you don't stop the person temporarily?
00:25:58.420You know, wasn't that the imprisonment charge or something?
00:26:02.080And if you didn't have a gun, why would they stop?
00:32:20.180How could you not be influenced by that, really?
00:32:22.480I feel like a white jury sentenced white people almost out of guilt or something.
00:32:35.080And I feel like that when you watch this happen, you see white people throw white people under a bus, maybe for this, maybe for the collective sins of our past, I don't know.
00:32:46.860But the weird thing that this triggered was for Ahmoud Arbery's father to say the most awesome thing that anybody said in a year, which is, all lives matter.
00:34:09.040I mean, maybe I'm too optimistic because it's Thanksgiving or something.
00:34:12.100But it feels like there's some kind of awakening going on.
00:34:16.420You know, certainly the Rittenhouse case, a lot of people on the left found out that their news was completely fake.
00:34:23.000But I think we may also be in the process of finding out that the country was not nearly as racially divided as the news was and, you know, the pundits.
00:34:35.820So, well, anyway, I think CNN referred to it as an obvious brazen murder, or somebody did.
00:36:04.360Now, there's also a Biden video in which it's been edited to make it look like he said out loud, end of quote, instead of just reading the prompter and knowing it was the end of the quote.
00:36:15.340But it was a video taken out of context.
00:36:17.560Next, what happens when I see a legitimate story about a Biden video being taken out of context?
00:36:26.200Well, I tweet it because I tag it with, hey, it's just like the fine people hoax and the drinking bleach hoax.
00:36:35.580And this gives me a way to, you know, to take these RUPAR videos and collect them together and maybe train the people on the left that their news is fake and has been for a long while.
00:36:48.440Now, I will tell you that the response online to the whole fine people hoax, most people know it's a hoax now.
00:36:55.920Or at least most people that follow me and I follow, most of them know it's a hoax.
00:37:04.260Is there anybody on here who doesn't know that the bleach drinking thing was a hoax, that Trump never said that?
00:37:11.240Is there anybody who thinks he actually said that?
00:37:13.020Now, I'm pretty sure nobody on Locals believes that.
00:37:17.560But is there anybody on YouTube who doesn't know that's a hoax?
00:37:28.580I'm just looking to see it because I know there's somebody here.
