Rebel News Podcast - EZRA LEVANT ｜ Who is Billboard Chris and who is attacking him？ An interview with Chris Elston

00:00:00.000 Hello, my rebels. Today, we have a chat with Billboard Chris.

00:00:04.280 He's the, I'm not going to call him an anti-trans campaigner.

00:00:09.140 I suppose he is. He goes and has sort of silent protests at trans events,

00:00:15.260 at drag queen story hours, and he just carries signs with basic statements

00:00:20.480 about what is a man and the kids can't consent.

00:00:24.740 And he has one-on-one conversations. He says he's not even a protester.

00:00:28.120 He just talks to people. Of course, he gets attacked for that.

00:00:33.160 Fascinating interview, including when he was attacked in Vancouver

00:00:36.140 and the cops just laughed at him.

00:00:39.060 A special feature interview with video clips with Billboard Chris.

00:00:47.280 I want you to see the video clips. I want you to see him being attacked.

00:00:50.560 I want you to see the cops laughing at him and not helping him.

00:01:03.560 We don't get any money from YouTube. That's rebelnewsplus.com.

00:01:07.620 All right, here's today's podcast.

00:01:13.660 You're listening to a Rebel News Podcast.

00:01:15.920 Tonight, who is Billboard Chris?

00:01:26.760 And who is attacking him?

00:01:28.640 It's April 4th, and this is the Ezra Levant Show.

00:01:31.160 You're ready for freedom!

00:01:34.340 Shame on you, you censorious bug!

00:01:37.500 His name is Chris Elston, but he's known online as Billboard Chris. 0.80

00:01:51.840 But what he does is he goes to protests or public events where people are targeting children for transgender transitioning.

00:02:01.640 And he stands in stony silence with a simple sign.

00:02:06.260 His signs include sayings like,

00:02:08.160 Children cannot consent.

00:02:09.620 It's a silent witness to the madness of what's going on.

00:02:14.020 And yet he's almost always attacked for it.

00:02:16.720 He was in Florida last week speaking to legislators in that state about transitioning by minor children,

00:02:25.460 by children of tender years who are going through irrevocable, irreversible gender reassignment surgery,

00:02:33.500 something that I think in future generations will be looked at as a horrific crime.

00:02:39.400 Billboard Chris, as he's called, was back in Canada standing quietly at a transgender event.

00:02:45.860 He often goes to these drag queen story hours.

00:02:49.160 And he was assaulted by a transgender activist.

00:02:52.660 It's happening more and more.

00:02:54.120 Here, take a look at this.

00:02:55.320 Oh, hi. Friendly people here already.

00:03:09.620 Please don't push me.

00:03:10.920 Thank you.

00:03:11.720 Don't touch me.

00:03:12.840 I'm just coming to my friends.

00:03:14.420 Buddy, don't touch me.

00:03:15.760 Don't get in my way.

00:03:16.620 You don't have the right to stop.

00:03:17.700 Absolutely don't touch me.

00:03:19.700 Oh, here we go.

00:03:20.780 I'm getting painted on already.

00:03:22.840 Been here five seconds.

00:03:24.460 I'm already getting assaulted.

00:03:26.600 Oh, I love it.

00:03:27.760 Peaceful Antifa.

00:03:29.460 Look at all these brave people with their masks on.

00:03:32.000 Inclusive people, aren't they?

00:03:33.420 Yeah, no kidding.

00:03:35.040 Well, we'll talk more about that and we'll show more video clips.

00:03:38.080 But joining us now live via Skype from the greater Vancouver area is Chris Elston.

00:03:42.980 Chris, nice to meet you.

00:03:44.340 I know you've talked to other rebels before.

00:03:46.200 Have I accurately described what you do and you attend these events in sort of a passive

00:03:52.460 resistance kind of way?

00:03:53.600 You're not a provocateur.

00:03:54.960 You're not shouting.

00:03:56.180 You don't engage.

00:03:57.100 You're sort of just your presence there is your statement.

00:04:02.860 Go ahead.

00:04:04.300 Yeah.

00:04:04.560 So I have gone to some of these events.

00:04:06.440 Honestly, the majority of the time I'm doing, I'm just hanging out on this very busy.

00:04:12.400 I travel all around North America.

00:04:14.100 I've been to probably 25 or 30 states and provinces.

00:04:17.760 I go to a lot of university campuses and I talk to the students on campus.

00:04:21.420 And the great majority of time it's peaceful.

00:04:23.300 But of course, what really makes the headlines are when I get attacked, which has happened

00:04:25.980 numerous times.

00:04:26.960 So sometimes I do go to these events.

00:04:28.780 Sometimes I hold my own protests.

00:04:30.600 But really, I wear these signs as a means of starting conversation.

00:04:34.780 I don't strictly consider myself a protester.

00:04:37.080 I'm out there having one conversation at a time about the greatest child abuse scandal

00:04:41.040 in the history of modern medicine.

00:04:42.740 Yeah.

00:04:44.020 So tell me what some of your signs say.

00:04:47.120 So my main message is children cannot consent to puberty blockers.

00:04:51.640 That's normally on my front.

00:04:53.520 Sometimes I wear the one that says my definition of a dad, which is a human male who protects

00:04:59.400 his kids from gender ideology.

00:05:01.140 And I've got some other signs for mainly when other people come out with me.

00:05:05.520 Gender ideology does not belong in schools, because that's where a lot of kids are falling 1.00

00:05:08.900 into this.

00:05:09.940 Children are never born in the wrong body is another message, because that's what our kids

00:05:14.740 are being taught.

00:05:15.320 But just because they don't conform to regressive sexist stereotypes associated with their sex,

00:05:21.100 that this must mean that they were born wrong.

00:05:23.040 What an abusive thing to say to a child. 0.99

00:05:25.600 That right there is already ridiculous. 0.91

00:05:27.700 But now they're medicalizing kids just because they're a bit different. 0.96

00:05:30.500 It's totally insane.

00:05:31.220 And for simply holding those signs, and I've seen those signs, and I appreciate you.

00:05:37.840 I mean, you told them to us verbatim.

00:05:40.160 Those signs are statements of your opinion.

00:05:42.960 I would imagine most people would regard them as statements of fact.

00:05:46.960 There's no insults.

00:05:48.380 There's no derogatory terms there.

00:05:50.300 There's no threats or anything like that.

00:05:53.180 And yet you are constantly at least verbally berated and as most attacked.

00:05:59.000 In fact, I think you actually still have a black eye right now.

00:06:04.320 Yeah, I do.

00:06:05.380 So I went to this event on Friday, and I'd only been there for five seconds, literally

00:06:11.460 five seconds.

00:06:12.160 I saw my friend Pierre Barnes, who's an amazing man, who has done more research than anyone

00:06:16.640 in Canada about some of these pornographic books that are in schools.

00:06:21.500 And he's exposed a lot of that.

00:06:23.080 He sends a lot of emails to trustees and that sort of thing.

00:06:25.580 But he was there by himself, surrounded by these hostile people.

00:06:28.360 So I started to walk up to him, and I couldn't even get to him because I was immediately

00:06:32.560 assaulted.

00:06:33.520 Someone came with a marker and marked up my sign, and I ended up with a bloody nose out

00:06:37.820 of that.

00:06:38.680 So I called the police because there were no police there.

00:06:42.860 And they came.

00:06:44.300 I guess they were just around the corner.

00:06:45.660 And so I knew right away, as soon as I started talking to the first officer, Constable Frederick

00:06:51.380 Buckman, that I had a problem on my hands because I said to her, I should be able to walk freely

00:06:58.000 in a Canadian park without getting assaulted.

00:07:01.860 And she said, well...

00:07:04.860 So right away, I knew I had a big problem on my hands.

00:07:07.940 Yeah, just incredible.

00:07:08.920 Well, we played the first clip of you with your friend, Pierre Barnes.

00:07:13.820 I'd like to play the second clip.

00:07:15.360 And this is the assault that took place.

00:07:18.100 So here, this is a one-minute clip.

00:07:19.680 We'll be right back.

00:07:20.260 Take a look.

00:07:20.660 Why do you think they're getting that kind of representation?

00:07:25.040 I mean, it clearly was aggressive, violent assault. 1.00

00:07:28.380 You suck. 1.00

00:07:29.520 You suck. 1.00

00:07:30.340 Fuck you. 1.00

00:07:31.140 Fuck you. 1.00

00:07:31.720 You're not wanted. 1.00

00:07:32.500 Fuck you. 1.00

00:07:33.140 You're a fucking idiot. 1.00

00:07:34.680 You're a fucking idiot. 1.00

00:07:35.280 I don't know what to say. 1.00

00:07:36.100 I guess these police officers are mostly indoctrinated as well.

00:07:39.840 They're afraid of the mob. 1.00

00:07:41.080 Because you're a fucking idiot. 1.00

00:07:43.000 I think they're afraid that if they do anything to actually keep law and order, that they'll end 1.00

00:07:49.800 up being on the end of this verbal abuse, so it's just cowardice from everybody all around. 1.00

00:07:55.840 Fuck you. 1.00

00:07:56.700 People probably want to know, how do you keep your composure? 1.00

00:07:59.760 Fuck you. 1.00

00:08:00.580 What's that? 1.00

00:08:01.220 How do you keep your composure? 1.00

00:08:02.780 Fuck you. 1.00

00:08:03.760 Fuck you. 1.00

00:08:04.800 Fuck you. 1.00

00:08:05.460 Fuck you. 1.00

00:08:06.780 Fuck you. 1.00

00:08:07.900 Fuck you. 1.00

00:08:08.980 Fuck you. 1.00

00:08:10.020 Fuck you. 1.00

00:08:11.220 Fuck you. 1.00

00:08:12.300 Fuck you. 1.00

00:08:13.320 Fuck you. 1.00

00:08:14.400 Fuck you. 1.00

00:08:15.300 Hey, get your fucking ass. 1.00

00:08:17.220 Get him. 1.00

00:08:18.060 Come on, get your fucking ass. 1.00

00:08:21.480 You son of a bitch. 1.00

00:08:24.020 My phone, my purse, my dog. 1.00

00:08:29.200 I have to say, Chris, if you were any other demographic, if you were a transgender activist,

00:08:35.960 if you were, and by the way, peaceful, protest, not provoking in any way, if you were any other

00:08:42.760 demographic group, or if you were on the other side of this issue, I think not only would

00:08:47.640 this be huge mainstream media news, but the police would have, you know, called it a hate

00:08:54.020 crime against you, a politically motivated crime.

00:08:56.560 They might have even called it terrorism against you since it was violence in pursuit of a political

00:09:01.660 objective.

00:09:02.200 But you mentioned the cop, Frederick Bachman, and just incredible.

00:09:11.680 Let's take a look at the officer.

00:09:14.020 And by the way, Rebel News has a petition to fire Officer Bachman.

00:09:17.760 I think the likelihood of that is low.

00:09:19.900 In fact, if anything, the senior brass are rallying into her defense.

00:09:24.220 Take a look at this cop, and you tell me, is this someone who neutrally and impartially

00:09:30.380 enforces the law?

00:09:31.820 Take a look.

00:09:32.760 Listen, I love the police.

00:09:35.740 My brother's a police officer.

00:09:38.140 I respect law and order.

00:09:40.380 I respect our Charter of Rights and Freedoms. 0.95

00:09:42.360 And I'm not trying to be a jerk to you earlier today.

00:09:45.760 I don't think a lot of you understand what I'm actually representing and the seriousness 0.74

00:09:50.860 of this situation.

00:09:55.420 But it is what it is, I guess.

00:09:57.000 This is Canada, and people shouldn't be allowed to assault people without consequence, you

00:10:02.360 know?

00:10:02.460 I agree, Chris, but the thing is, right, when we get into people's faces, and they get

00:10:07.320 into our faces, it doesn't really matter who does the first hook.

00:10:11.780 It's considered a consensual fight.

00:10:13.660 And maybe that's something you should...

00:10:15.160 I didn't...

00:10:15.640 No, no.

00:10:16.640 That's...

00:10:17.240 I didn't get into people's faces.

00:10:19.180 I was here for...

00:10:19.880 Chris, I saw you get very close to people.

00:10:21.960 You weren't here.

00:10:22.780 You weren't even here.

00:10:24.540 I was...

00:10:25.460 I came and walked...

00:10:27.120 They surrounded?

00:10:27.520 I came over to your car.

00:10:29.380 Yes, that first time.

00:10:30.600 After.

00:10:30.840 But the second time...

00:10:32.080 The second time what?

00:10:33.400 Where you were pushed on the ground.

00:10:34.980 Are you kidding me?

00:10:35.720 I'd walked...

00:10:36.380 I'd been walking away from them.

00:10:38.180 Yeah, and they surrounded you.

00:10:38.960 To do an interview with him.

00:10:40.880 They came close.

00:10:41.940 I walked away again to do the interview with him.

00:10:43.980 What I'm saying is at this point maybe you should ask your brother what a consensual fight it is, right?

00:10:48.980 Oh my gosh.

00:10:50.180 This is unbelievable.

00:10:51.320 I walked away from them three times.

00:10:53.380 They were surrounding me.

00:10:54.600 You all were doing nothing.

00:10:56.500 A man yelled at my...

00:10:57.740 A man yelled in my ear from inches away.

00:11:00.300 And I tried to get out of this situation where they're surrounding me while you guys do nothing.

00:11:05.120 And I immediately get punched in the face.

00:11:08.700 And you're blaming me? 0.63

00:11:10.180 And whoever punched you should be charged.

00:11:12.260 Are you kidding me right now?

00:11:13.360 Watch your face.

00:11:16.620 This is...

00:11:17.520 No, this is totally surreal.

00:11:19.380 I cannot believe what I'm hearing.

00:11:22.220 Amazing.

00:11:22.620 It's surreal.

00:11:26.240 Amazing.

00:11:28.620 Totally amazing.

00:11:31.500 Do you even know what...

00:11:33.060 Like, why are you behaving like this?

00:11:35.300 Do you think I'm evil or something for having this position?

00:11:37.700 Like, what's your problem?

00:11:38.660 Yeah, you are female. 1.00

00:11:40.980 And this should be an issue.

00:11:43.360 This has nothing to do with you, okay?

00:11:45.700 What happened?

00:11:46.240 I'm a female.

00:11:47.420 It has nothing to do with me, this trans thing.

00:11:50.080 No, no.

00:11:51.020 Nothing to do with women. 1.00

00:11:52.620 I'm talking to somebody else about something, okay?

00:11:55.160 No, it doesn't even...

00:11:56.160 These conversations are pointless right now.

00:11:57.980 You're trying to...

00:11:58.880 Now you're trying to insinuate that that was a mutual thing.

00:12:01.100 Like, my gosh.

00:12:02.300 Mutual thing.

00:12:03.080 I'd walked away from the crowd three times.

00:12:04.860 They kept following me.

00:12:05.640 Then they surrounded me from all sides.

00:12:07.740 Okay.

00:12:07.920 Started yelling in my ear from inches away while you all did nothing.

00:12:12.080 And then when I can't even get out of that surrounding, and I get punched in the face, I get pulled.

00:12:20.520 You're telling me that's a mutual engagement?

00:12:23.740 Yes, it is.

00:12:28.500 Incredible.

00:12:29.140 You have the right not to be here either, right?

00:12:30.500 It's incredible.

00:12:31.300 And I have the right to be here.

00:12:33.340 Yes, you do.

00:12:35.000 Have you read this thing called the Charter of Rights and Freedoms?

00:12:37.180 Yes, I have.

00:12:37.640 Have you?

00:12:38.120 Yes, I have.

00:12:38.500 You should go home and read it again.

00:12:39.640 On whose orders are you guys acting on?

00:12:41.800 I've never heard a cop talk that way before.

00:12:44.380 She didn't even really feel like a cop.

00:12:46.120 She felt like someone who was plucked out of some gender studies class, put in a uniform and told, go out there and, you know, propagate your ideology.

00:12:55.700 Like, it wasn't just that she was political. 0.51

00:12:58.880 It was just how unprofessional she was. 1.00

00:13:01.300 And, oh, you guys are fighting.

00:13:02.960 Yeah, you consented to that.

00:13:05.420 It's a mutual fight.

00:13:06.600 I got nothing.

00:13:07.300 I'm not going to get involved.

00:13:08.740 I've just, I've never seen anything like that before.

00:13:12.060 It was surreal.

00:13:13.240 The whole experience was surreal.

00:13:14.560 And it's not just that.

00:13:15.540 She called that a mutual fight.

00:13:17.040 So I'm giving an interview.

00:13:19.260 I've got people on each side of me screaming obscenities in my ears, inches from my ears.

00:13:24.340 I did a little turnaround to film the crowd.

00:13:26.880 I come back around and now they've kind of moved in front of me.

00:13:29.800 And one of those screams in particular really hurt my ear because it was very close.

00:13:33.780 And I wanted to get out of there, but I didn't even push them.

00:13:37.360 I put a hand up to, like, protect my space because he's on top of me.

00:13:42.240 Am I supposed to let him climb right on top of me before I do anything?

00:13:44.660 And if you touch their pinky toe, they take this as a sign of aggression and they use it as an excuse to try to clobber you.

00:13:51.380 So that's what they wanted.

00:13:53.080 That's what the police wanted.

00:13:54.180 As that assault happened, that police officer, Frederick Buckman, was smiling away with her hands in her pockets.

00:14:00.300 She later said to independent journalist Dan Dix that I instigated this by screaming at people.

00:14:08.440 I recorded every single second.

00:14:11.140 Did you just say he came here to incite violence by forcing his opinion on people?

00:14:15.940 Yes.

00:14:16.820 You think he came here to incite violence because they got offended by his sign?

00:14:22.080 When you talk to someone and scream at someone and put your face...

00:14:25.460 He didn't scream at all.

00:14:26.900 Yes, he did.

00:14:27.460 They put their face in his face.

00:14:28.960 What is wrong with you?

00:14:30.660 Okay.

00:14:32.180 How on earth did you become a police officer?

00:14:35.920 She's literally sitting here saying that Billboard Chris is inciting violence by standing there with his sign.

00:14:42.860 Is that really your position?

00:14:44.380 Okay, sir.

00:14:45.140 We're done with this conversation.

00:14:46.280 Yeah, I thought so.

00:14:47.700 I thought so.

00:14:48.860 This is absolutely unbecoming of the Vancouver Police Department. 0.99

00:14:53.000 Disgusting. 0.99

00:14:54.580 It's insane. 1.00

00:14:55.660 It's just a lie.

00:14:56.900 He's just making stuff up.

00:14:58.040 Now, this went viral on the internet, but I soon saw the deputy police chief chimed in, but not for the rule of law, not to say we're reviewing the matter, but it was basically a complaint.

00:15:11.820 He was tweeting how outraged he was that people were mean to that officer, Frederick Bachman, and how he stands by her.

00:15:20.060 So, she's not under investigation, at least as of last night when I saw these tweets by the deputy chief, and he's condemning any criticism of her.

00:15:30.740 In other words, he's condoning her policing.

00:15:32.760 Has anything changed since last night?

00:15:35.180 Do you know if this officer is being scrutinized or reviewed in any way?

00:15:41.560 Have you filed a complaint against this officer?

00:15:44.160 I haven't yet filed my complaint.

00:15:46.540 I've already been in touch with a lawyer, so I'll be doing everything I can to sue her or the Vancouver Police Department and go through their own channels as well with the police commissioner, etc.

00:15:58.720 But she should not be empowered.

00:16:00.580 She has previous complaints against her where an Indigenous woman had reported her 29-year-old son missing, and it turns out he had done cocaine and it was laced with fentanyl, and the fentanyl killed him.

00:16:12.460 And so, this woman, who seems to have no compassion, a classic cluster B personality, she showed up to the Indigenous woman's home, the police officer did, and in the entrance to the home, she said, first of all, your son is dead. 0.62

00:16:26.580 And the woman, who's already in a state of anxiety, this mother, collapsed to the floor.

00:16:30.940 So, the officer was reprimanded by this.

00:16:33.600 She was found guilty of discredible conduct or whatever by a judge.

00:16:36.980 And I hear that there's more information that Rebel News is going to be breaking about this officer as well, but she should not be employed.

00:16:43.580 There's pictures of her in her kitchen.

00:16:45.820 She has a calendar on the wall with a general for the Communist Party of China.

00:16:51.420 So, we're dealing with some strange individual here.

00:16:54.420 Yeah, just absolute.

00:16:55.400 It really is if your gender diversity class was given a gun and a badge.

00:17:04.080 There's a new, I mean, this cop is quite something.

00:17:07.660 Her name is Frederique Bachmann, and we have a petition called Fire Officer Bachmann.

00:17:11.160 Like I say, I don't think they're going to fire her.

00:17:13.220 I think they're going to promote her.

00:17:15.500 They're just so ideological.

00:17:17.140 It's just truly shocking.

00:17:18.280 But putting aside the cop, I think that's a bad cop. 0.99

00:17:22.480 I think that cop's going to shoot someone one day.

00:17:25.060 I mean, I think that cop is emotional, can't control her own ideology, can't control, herself does not enforce the law, and has basically been treated with impunity.

00:17:36.780 Like, I read that insane story.

00:17:38.920 She's going to this aboriginal family to be part of a team to gently break the news that their son is dead.

00:17:46.480 And I think there was a grief counselor there and others, and she just blurts it out like a weapon and just absolutely the wrong temperament. 0.99

00:17:56.100 You know, let me just give you a quick anecdote.

00:17:57.720 I used to work for a cop who became a lawyer, and we talked a lot about what it was like as a cop.

00:18:03.620 And he explained to me, and I'm sure you know this, Chris, but it was news to me, that when they have, you know, firearms training, and, you know, the drill sergeant gets right up in your face and shouts at you as a cop or a soldier,

00:18:17.120 that's designed to test your stress and your reactions in a terrible situation where someone's screaming at you and there's lights flashing and there's noise and there's, you know, in the fog of the moment.

00:18:29.300 That is designed to test if you have emotional control.

00:18:32.040 By the way, it sounds like you passed that test of emotional self-control when they were screaming right in your face.

00:18:37.720 But this officer, Frederick Bachmann, it sounds like she actually cannot control herself at all.

00:18:45.080 When a citizen is being beat up, she smiles.

00:18:48.680 When afterwards she says, oh, you consented to that.

00:18:51.100 She lies about the fact, saying that you provoked the fight.

00:18:56.020 And she obviously was so excited to tell this woman that her son was dead, she bloated it out, and the woman fainted. 1.00

00:19:02.440 This is someone who I think if they were not some progressive checklist on an equity hire, I think there's a diversity hire of Frederick Bachmann, which is exactly why she won't be fired.

00:19:13.600 I do not think Frederick Bachmann is suited to have a gun and a badge.

00:19:17.940 I think she's a danger to the public, a discredit to the force. 0.95

00:19:21.660 So absolutely they're going to keep her at all costs.

00:19:24.340 That's my thoughts.

00:19:24.860 But let's move away from her and back to the main story, which is the growing violence of the transgender extremist movement. 0.95

00:19:33.820 I'm not talking about any particular individual person who has some gender dysphoria.

00:19:38.940 I'm talking about these political activists.

00:19:41.840 We had the mass shooting in Nashville a couple of weeks ago.

00:19:45.840 What is happening with transgenderism? 0.99

00:19:48.580 How did it get so bloody violent so quickly? 0.66

00:19:50.980 So they've been violent the entire time.

00:19:56.480 I think there just haven't been people out in the real world doing much.

00:19:59.460 Now, I'll qualify that statement in a second, but I just want to say from the Vancouver Police Force, this is nothing new.

00:20:05.420 I got assaulted back in October of 2020 when I first started my campaign and I was arrested right in front of the police officers.

00:20:12.580 A union rep named Robert Ages came and hit me with two hammer fists and I was immediately handcuffed, taken to jail.

00:20:17.580 I was charged with causing a disturbance and banned from walking on all these streets in Vancouver.

00:20:22.420 In Montreal, I had my arm broken on St. Catherine Street, busiest pedestrian street in Montreal.

00:20:27.440 Police did nothing to investigate.

00:20:28.660 They told me two months later they'd lost the street footage and couldn't do anything unless I got them the names of my masked and hooded attackers.

00:20:34.580 I was mobbed by 200 university students in Ottawa with 12 police watching on, city councillors and even an MP cheering it all on.

00:20:43.820 As I was punched, had my signs painted on, got spat on, had my signs destroyed and my car keyed.

00:20:50.520 So the violence is nothing new.

00:20:52.320 I've been assaulted about 25 times, but around the world, we're definitely seeing an uptick.

00:20:55.760 And what we have going on is we have these leftist governments and the media preaching that there is a genocide of transgender people going on.

00:21:04.260 And you have all these mentally unstable individuals who feel like they're under attack simply because we have peaceful parents like myself who don't think we should be sterilizing and mutilating kids.

00:21:12.680 So the media and the government have to take some responsibility for creating this environment where they're whipping these mentally unstable people up into a frenzy.

00:21:19.480 You know, you're so right.

00:21:22.120 And and in many cases, they are on drugs, including hormones.

00:21:27.100 And you can imagine how that discombobulates a person.

00:21:30.340 I that female to male transgender murderer in Nashville. 0.97

00:21:36.800 I can you know, I can only imagine you're psychologically off balance to begin with. 0.99

00:21:42.160 You've got rage inducing male hormones or steroids being pumped into your blood. 0.99

00:21:48.000 And you're told that Christians and straight white cisgender males are out to genocide you. 0.97

00:21:55.760 And you say that and a million people hear it and one or two of them are going to say, oh, my God, it's true. 1.00

00:22:01.400 I must kill the genocide. 1.00

00:22:03.540 I must kill this generation's Hitler before they kill me. 1.00

00:22:06.580 I think I think I think it it is deeply dangerous and I think it's going to grow exponentially as transgenderism grows quantitatively and qualitatively. 1.00

00:22:18.240 What I mean by that is there's more trans it's an explosion in transgenderism. 0.97

00:22:23.440 As as Bill Maher says, it's a it's a kind of mind virus. 0.95

00:22:26.460 It's it's it's it's planted in minds.

00:22:29.240 Here's a clip of Bill Maher, who's who's a traditional California liberal, pointing out that this is so completely a manmade psycho psychological virus.

00:22:40.940 Take a look at this.

00:22:41.880 And this is a phenomenon we need to take into account when we look at this issue.

00:22:46.160 Yes, part of the rise in LGBT numbers is from people feeling free enough to tell it to a pollster.

00:22:53.380 And that's all to the good.

00:22:55.080 But some of it is it's trendy. 1.00

00:22:58.720 Penis equals man. 1.00

00:23:00.320 OK, boomer. 0.99

00:23:04.040 Remember, the prime directive of every teen is anything to shock and challenge the squares who brought you up.

00:23:11.160 It's why nobody gets a nose ring at 56.

00:23:16.160 And if you haven't noticed that with kids doing something for the likes is more important than their own genitals, you haven't been paying attention.

00:23:29.520 Dr. Erica Anderson is a prominent 71 year old clinical psychologist who is herself transgender and who now says, I think it's gone too far.

00:23:38.860 The L.A. Times summarizes she's come to believe that some children identifying as trans are falling under the influence of their peers and social media.

00:23:49.220 If you attend a small dinner party of typically very liberal upper income Angelenos, it is not uncommon to hear parents who each have a trans kid having a conversation about that.

00:24:01.100 What are the odds of that happening in Youngstown, Ohio?

00:24:05.460 If this spike in trans children is all natural, why is it regional? 0.99

00:24:11.220 Either Ohio is shaming them or California is creating them.

00:24:14.700 It's like that day we suddenly all needed bottled water all the time.

00:24:27.740 If we can't admit that in certain enclaves there is some level of trendiness to the idea of being anything other than straight, then this is not a serious science based discussion.

00:24:38.380 It's a blow being struck in the culture wars using children as cannon fodder.

00:24:44.660 I don't understand parents who won't let their nine-year-old walk to the corner without a helmet, an EpiPen and a GPS tracker.

00:24:54.240 And God forbid their lips touch dairy. 0.97

00:24:56.940 But hormone blockers and genital surgery, fine.

00:25:10.240 Talk about a nut allergy.

00:25:12.240 So you've got an explosion quantitatively in the number of people who claim they're transgender.

00:25:17.560 And then you have the qualitative transformation towards radical activism.

00:25:22.240 You see the shirts with daggers.

00:25:25.160 You see the opinion leaders with guns threatening violence against critics of transgenderism.

00:25:31.920 I think we are in for some really tough times.

00:25:34.600 I think this is the new Antifa.

00:25:36.140 In fact, there's a lot of transgenderism in Antifa, isn't there?

00:25:41.060 These are one in the same.

00:25:43.020 Every single member of Antifa is also a trans activist.

00:25:45.420 And basically, a ton of these young people who identify as trans would also identify as being a member of Antifa.

00:25:53.340 I see them all the time.

00:25:55.280 So what we've got going on is people like myself, people like yourself because of the work you've done with Rebel, and others all across the world are starting to speak up more.

00:26:07.980 The entire conservative movement, especially in the United States, has woken up.

00:26:11.000 And we're winning.

00:26:13.020 There are about 20 states now passing legislation.

00:26:15.660 They either pass it or they're pushing it through to stop the transition of children.

00:26:20.540 And it's like if you're dealing with demons.

00:26:22.240 As long as they're winning, they don't do anything.

00:26:24.540 But as soon as you start to push back, well, they get really angry.

00:26:27.340 So there's going to be a lot of gnashing of teeth and a lot of tears as we restore sanity to this world.

00:26:33.620 And we've got a fight on our hands.

00:26:35.060 But it's a fight we have to take on because we can't let this child abuse continue to happen to our kids.

00:26:39.920 Well, let me ask you one last question.

00:26:42.280 By the way, Chris, I really appreciate your time.

00:26:44.960 And actually, I've got two questions for you.

00:26:47.380 My second last question is your story and the video of this officer, Frederick Bachman, went viral on Twitter.

00:26:56.280 And on social media, it was a big story.

00:26:59.940 Have any mainstream media in Canada interviewed you about this?

00:27:04.780 Have you heard from the CBC, Globe and Mail, Toronto Star, CTV, Global, or even the Vancouver Sun in your own city?

00:27:13.520 No, of course not.

00:27:15.100 Now, in a miracle, in a modern day miracle, CBC and CTV both wrote articles that were kind of okay.

00:27:23.280 They didn't even call me anti-trans.

00:27:25.280 They just said that assault had occurred against me.

00:27:28.020 They wrote some other kind of nonsense in there.

00:27:28.980 They didn't talk to you, but they covered the event without talking to you.

00:27:32.880 And they actually acknowledged that you were the one who was assaulted.

00:27:36.320 They didn't claim, like this bad cop did, that you did any assaulting.

00:27:41.740 That's right.

00:27:42.240 And previously in Ottawa, when I had this huge news with all these university protesters and everything, I did interview with CBC for 18 minutes.

00:27:50.660 I interviewed with CTV for 15 minutes on camera.

00:27:53.700 And guess how much they aired when this was the top story on the news program at night?

00:27:58.220 Zero.

00:27:58.980 Not one second.

00:28:00.360 Because they're only looking for something hateful to come out of my mouth to fill out their narrative.

00:28:04.400 But of course, there is nothing hateful about this.

00:28:07.160 So they just don't run anything at all.

00:28:08.980 Well, your story, I know it's gone viral globally.

00:28:11.000 I think it was in the New York Post.

00:28:12.280 It may have been in the Daily Mail.

00:28:13.400 I'm not sure if you were on Fox.

00:28:14.600 Did you go on Fox News?

00:28:16.880 I did.

00:28:17.440 I was supposed to talk with Tucker last night, but I had huge border issues because I was supposed to film across the border and I couldn't make it in time.

00:28:22.800 So that was disappointing.

00:28:23.920 But he ran a segment on it.

00:28:24.980 And I'm going to be on Sky News Australia and all people all over the world are talking about this.

00:28:29.560 And I'm even going to meet with some members of parliament in Scotland.

00:28:31.820 Well, as so often happens, you'll get more and fairer coverage outside of Canada than in Canada.

00:28:39.780 It was the same with the trucker convoy.

00:28:41.180 Here's my last question to you, and I genuinely need your help to figure this one out.

00:28:44.500 Why?

00:28:48.700 Why is transgenderism being pushed by the establishment?

00:28:53.120 Why is it being funded?

00:28:54.460 Why is the media promoting it?

00:28:55.960 Why are doctors inventing these treatments for this ailment?

00:29:01.700 Why?

00:29:02.900 What's the point?

00:29:03.900 What's the purpose?

00:29:04.720 What's the strategic mission?

00:29:07.540 Why are they doing this?

00:29:09.820 It's a great question.

00:29:10.540 So this goes back decades into academia, where they taught that we have this thing called a gender identity, which may be different than your biological sex.

00:29:19.960 And as long as this floated around in academic circles with some far leftists, it wasn't such a big deal.

00:29:25.620 But this has emerged now into the mainstream.

00:29:27.800 And when gay rights were won, which, fine, like give equal rights to everybody.

00:29:32.680 I support that.

00:29:35.040 But the goal for all these LGBTQ organizations moved.

00:29:40.380 And we really shouldn't call them LGBTQ organizations. 0.98

00:29:42.740 They're TQ organizations. 0.83

00:29:44.400 The T and the Q have nothing to do with LGB.

00:29:46.920 LGB is attraction, and a lot of gay people are against this.

00:29:49.780 Because this hurts kids like themselves, who didn't fit in.

00:29:53.240 They didn't fit into the typical stereotypes growing up.

00:29:56.980 A little effeminate boy is not a girl. 0.92

00:29:59.660 Well, he's a boy, and a girl who wants to climb trees and throw around a football and play in the dirt and hates dresses.

00:30:06.020 Well, guess what?

00:30:06.760 She's a beautiful girl.

00:30:08.580 But this ideology teaches that stereotypes determine your gender identity, and that trumps your biological sex.

00:30:13.940 So we have tons of money coming from all these nonprofits and from the government pushing queer theory into society and pushing gender ideology.

00:30:21.220 And I understand gender identity, and I understand it.

00:30:24.960 But I'm trying to see why, why, why.

00:30:27.580 I understand why Black Lives Matter and Idle No More were useful political tools.

00:30:32.940 You can see Barack Obama, Justin Trudeau.

00:30:35.780 They like to divide people based on identity groups and pit them against each other.

00:30:40.460 I mean, Trudeau did that even with the vaxxed and the unvaxxed.

00:30:42.220 Is that what's going on here, to create a battle between the trans and the non-trans?

00:30:49.580 Like, I'm just trying to understand what's the payoff.

00:30:53.160 Why?

00:30:53.620 Like, I understand they're thinking.

00:30:55.920 Why is that something they're pushing for? 0.99

00:30:59.440 I just, maybe I'm asking a stupid question, but. 0.99

00:31:02.400 No, it's a great question. 0.99

00:31:03.980 Who benefits from it?

00:31:04.520 Who benefits from it?

00:31:05.500 Well, pharmaceutical companies benefit to a degree.

00:31:09.800 There's, this is a $2 billion industry now.

00:31:12.580 It might cost upwards of a million dollars to transition a child and keep them on hormones for their entire life. 0.95

00:31:17.800 Never mind complications and all that.

00:31:19.940 But this goes beyond just money.

00:31:21.820 This is like a religion, Ezra.

00:31:23.760 These people honestly believe in this gender identity.

00:31:28.180 It's like they have a gendered soul. 1.00

00:31:30.540 And they're brainwashed. 0.68

00:31:31.900 They're indoctrinated.

00:31:32.580 This is a cult, which has affected all of society, because the radical left are firm believers in this ideology.

00:31:40.140 And the entire left is always held hostage by the far left.

00:31:44.460 Because if they say anything against this, they're called a bigot.

00:31:48.200 And that's like the worst thing you could ever call a leftist.

00:31:50.380 And I know from about 11 or 12,000 conversations I've had on the street and at university campuses, more than 90% of the population supports us.

00:31:59.060 This message is not that controversial.

00:32:00.420 But in the political realm, it's totally different.

00:32:04.280 You can't tell me that Nancy Pelosi doesn't know what a woman is. 0.98

00:32:07.120 But she'll never admit it.

00:32:08.560 Because the far left have held them hostage.

00:32:11.240 And these TQ organizations, when they won gay rights, they had to keep the money flowing. 0.52

00:32:15.820 They don't just shut the doors and say we accomplished our goals.

00:32:18.180 So the goalposts move to transgenderism. 0.69

00:32:20.720 And they conflate these as being the same thing.

00:32:23.760 And because these letters LGBT strike fear in the hearts of men and paralyze them and stop them from talking, they've had just free reign to grow this insanity with absolutely no barriers in the way. 0.98

00:32:37.200 So here we are today, finally people speaking up.

00:32:39.500 And we've got a lot of job.

00:32:41.380 We've got a lot to undo.

00:32:42.580 We have a lot of damage that has to be undone.

00:32:44.860 I should tell you, before Elon Musk bought Twitter, the fastest way to be censored, and I'm talking within minutes, was to misgender or dead name a trans person.

00:32:57.380 Misgender is to call a man who now transitions to say he instead of her, or to call him by the name their parents gave him, as opposed to the name they chose.

00:33:08.580 I've never seen censorship that vicious, that hard, that strident.

00:33:13.400 And I've seen censorship going back decades, whether it's in the name of a political party or Islam or whatever.

00:33:21.960 I've seen a lot of different kinds of censorship.

00:33:24.080 I've never seen censorship as brutal and forceful as trans censorship. 0.99

00:33:29.840 I've just never seen it.

00:33:31.100 And Elon Musk has ended that in general at Twitter.

00:33:35.860 Well, I said I only had one question, and I have my fourth question since I said that, but I am curious.

00:33:42.600 I'll ask you the same question, which is why.

00:33:46.100 Why would you have 11,000 conversations on the street?

00:33:52.400 Why would you travel around city to city?

00:33:55.220 Why would you subject yourself to physical abuse, whether it's shouting in your ear threats of violence or actually being choked, punched?

00:34:02.720 You've got a black eye right now.

00:34:04.860 So why would you do this?

00:34:08.360 I'm a dad, Ezra.

00:34:09.840 I've got two girls. 0.95

00:34:10.780 They're 11 and 13 right now.

00:34:12.280 They were 8 and 10 when I started this campaign.

00:34:13.860 And like most parents, we exist for one purpose only, our kids.

00:34:19.200 And I'm not okay with sending my girls out into a world that doesn't know what a woman is. 1.00

00:34:23.700 But when I first learned about puberty blockers back in 2019, I read this term for the first time.

00:34:28.380 And I said, what the heck are those?

00:34:30.440 So I looked it up.

00:34:32.180 Well, they're exactly what they sound like.

00:34:33.500 These are drugs given to kids to stop their bodies going into puberty.

00:34:38.760 We're stopping the development of children.

00:34:41.320 Oh, my God.

00:34:42.420 You know, I can barely...

00:34:42.960 We cannot live in a society that does this.

00:34:46.140 So it just...

00:34:47.540 Some people hear this and they kind of go, oh, that's wrong.

00:34:50.160 But they go on with their lives.

00:34:51.540 Some people, this impacts deeply.

00:34:53.520 And it impacted me deeply.

00:34:54.840 And I did not want to look back at my life in 40 years and say, I knew all about this greatest, most insane child abuse scandal.

00:35:02.200 Maybe in mankind's history.

00:35:04.020 Yeah.

00:35:04.580 And I did nothing about it.

00:35:05.940 I just wasn't okay with that.

00:35:07.140 So I have no platform.

00:35:09.100 I just did what I could do.

00:35:10.500 And I wanted to start conversations.

00:35:11.980 Because like you said, freedom of speech has been erased.

00:35:14.500 People have been afraid to talk about this.

00:35:15.980 You couldn't even mention something on Twitter.

00:35:17.980 But I wanted to start conversations in the real world, not just in our echo chambers.

00:35:22.480 And I knew if I kept going and took all the abuse and everything, that it would grow into something.

00:35:26.240 Because it just has to.

00:35:27.460 And it's working.

00:35:28.320 So thank you so much for having me on your show today, Ezra.

00:35:31.700 I really deeply appreciate it.

00:35:33.580 Because if I can reach 100,000 people at a time or a million people at a time, it's much better than one conversation at a time, which I'm still going to keep doing.

00:35:40.200 Well, I'm not sure if our audience is quite that big, but we will certainly spread the word.

00:35:45.840 You know, I have to say, sometimes you hear about old diseases that were thought eradicated and they come back.

00:35:53.860 I heard of a case of leprosy, which I had thought was eradicated.

00:35:59.460 I suppose there are some places.

00:36:00.520 And when you hear that, you're reminded that the world was not always as safe and happy as we live it in North America now.

00:36:10.460 And when I hear of the physical disfigurement of children,

00:36:16.860 I feel an echo that is thousands of years old.

00:36:24.180 Before we had basic morality of the Code of Hammurabi, the Jewish Torah, the Christian New Testament,

00:36:34.860 even the Muslim Koran, the basic codes, the Roman civil law, basic codes of conduct amongst people.

00:36:44.040 I feel like there's a dark prehistory of child sacrifice.

00:36:50.300 I mean, I know this.

00:36:51.480 You know, the proverbial throw the virgin into the volcano,

00:36:56.400 the sacrifice of people on the pyramids in Central America,

00:37:02.600 which is what, you know, Cortez and the Conquistadors saw.

00:37:07.420 I feel like we are lapsing back thousands of years to a pre-moral time when mankind was much more animalistic.

00:37:19.880 And you said parents live for their children.

00:37:24.320 That's obviously true.

00:37:25.280 And that's something that I don't think people who are not yet parents can truly understand how true that is.

00:37:30.940 So imagine to invert morality.

00:37:35.940 Imagine the dark forces that would literally say,

00:37:39.840 no, children are not to be protected at all costs.

00:37:42.520 Children are to be experimented on, to be carved up,

00:37:46.020 to be destroyed and irrevocably changed.

00:37:49.700 That feels like it is a return of a dark evil that we thought was gone thousands of years ago

00:37:58.400 that is re-emerging.

00:38:00.140 And it is so gross and terrifying to me.

00:38:03.100 That's what it feels like.

00:38:04.420 It feels like a flicker of a horrific past that we thought was eradicated like leprosy. 0.50

00:38:10.660 But no, it's back.

00:38:11.820 Don't mind me with those thoughts.

00:38:13.340 Last word to you, Chris.

00:38:14.440 Okay, the last word is very simple.

00:38:19.160 There is no such thing as a transgender child. 1.00

00:38:21.840 They're called girls and boys, and they are beautiful just as they are.

00:38:26.740 No drugs or scalpels needed.

00:38:29.120 Thank you.

00:38:30.400 Chris, great to meet you.

00:38:32.420 I encourage you to keep up your work.

00:38:34.720 I hope you stay safe, but I know you deliberately put yourself in positions where that's not always possible.

00:38:39.920 We'll continue to report on what you're doing with interest.

00:38:42.280 We do have a petition called FireOfficerBachman.com.

00:38:45.760 We'll have the link beneath this story.

00:38:48.260 And we'll follow your pursuits.

00:38:50.100 And we will give you media coverage, even if the others don't.

00:38:55.000 And I know you're in Vancouver, so you know our reporter, Drea Humphrey, who's on the scene there.

00:39:00.580 Keep it up, Chris.

00:39:01.180 Nice to meet you.

00:39:02.740 Thank you, Ezra.

00:39:03.620 Thank you very much.

00:39:04.120 There you have it.

00:39:05.260 His name online is Billboard Chris.

00:39:07.140 His real name is Chris Elston.

00:39:09.160 And you've heard how he fights.

00:39:10.680 Stay with us.

00:39:12.420 More ahead.

00:39:24.400 Hey, welcome back.

00:39:25.360 Your letters to me.

00:39:26.280 Relative Unknown says,

00:39:28.000 The thing about activism, it's all about the activists.

00:39:30.200 Nothing more.

00:39:31.160 Basically, it means for untalented narcissists to get the attention they crave.

00:39:34.880 They don't give an F about the cause. 0.99

00:39:36.480 It's just the vehicle for potential face time for these clowns. 1.00

00:39:41.820 Listen, that's the case with some activists, but other activists deeply believe. 0.87

00:39:45.280 I regard myself as an activist, and I can assure you I believe in fighting for freedom.

00:39:51.440 It's not just a line.

00:39:53.260 I mean, I went to business school, but I didn't go into business, really, other than the business of politics.

00:40:00.620 Everyone in my business school class was hired by an oil company in Calgary.

00:40:03.980 I went into law, but I really didn't practice law much.

00:40:07.900 Everyone else in my law school went on to become a lawyer, and some are even judges now.

00:40:12.360 So I put it to you that my activism is what I really want to do, and I believe in it.

00:40:18.100 There are opportunists like Stephen Gilboa.

00:40:20.380 I think he would use whatever the excuse was to master the world and have power over people,

00:40:26.740 and in that case, to make a lot of money for the Greenpeace Multinational Corporation. 1.00

00:40:30.820 He's a hypocrite. 0.99

00:40:32.560 He has a car and a driver, and he jets around, so I know he doesn't practice what he preaches. 1.00

00:40:38.540 Sheephunder7 says, out of all the major important things going on in the world,

00:40:42.220 Rebel decides to rehash very old articles that were not really that newsworthy when they happened.

00:40:47.820 Well, I'm going to politely disagree with you for two reasons.

00:40:50.000 Number one, I simply did not know that Stephen Gilboa did a home invasion bizarre stunt attack like that.

00:40:57.340 Did you? And I'm going to guess a lot of our viewers didn't know.

00:41:00.440 I think a lot of people knew about the CN Tower stunt.

00:41:02.920 And I'm from Calgary. I didn't know that he did that home invasion.

00:41:06.960 But I think it's relevant because it shows how pathological he was, how dangerous he was.

00:41:12.040 I think it's relevant.

00:41:13.560 Listen, we talk about, we do 10 stories a day at Rebel News, more than that,

00:41:18.520 between our videos and our written stories.

00:41:20.720 So, yeah, forgive me that one day I talked about Stephen Gilboa, the pathological serial criminal who's in our cabinet.

00:41:29.380 Look on the bright side says, Tucker Carlson made a good point when he talked about anarcho-tyranny.

00:41:37.860 Now, I haven't seen that video when he talks about anarcho-tyranny,

00:41:41.400 but I can sort of guess that it means lawlessness on the streets, but authoritarianism from the government.

00:41:46.440 I think that's what we have in many of our big cities, including Toronto and Vancouver.

00:41:51.960 And I see evidence of it even in places like Edmonton as well.

00:41:56.140 Well, that's our show for today.

00:41:57.400 Until next time, on behalf of all of us here at Rubberwool Headquarters, to you at home, good night and keep fighting for freedom.

00:42:16.440 Jub pile andGreenField

00:42:18.080 Sunday.

00:42:24.100 Okay.

00:42:25.260 See you next time.

00:42:25.820 Cheers.

00:42:26.180 It's been hours.

00:42:28.140 of course.

00:42:29.260 Three more times,

00:42:30.680 it's been hours.

00:42:32.080 wahr? 0.96

00:42:32.820 Bye-bye.

00:42:34.080 Car.

00:42:35.140 Never.

00:42:37.200 Sa.

00:42:38.620 Aye.

00:42:39.280 Good fire.

00:42:40.960 Good fire.

00:42:42.180 Good fire.

00:42:43.000 Um, because of course we're also in Moderna as well.

00:42:45.140 Yeah.

00:42:45.200 Look at it.
