00:01:08.360 Minicast.
00:01:10.440 I was talking a little
00:01:11.700 earlier about the UK
00:01:13.440 and
00:01:14.920 you know, it's gotten from

00:01:36.820 to look and go ah the guy that used to smack me around and uh beat me at football and whatever 0.89
00:01:44.120 now he's pathetic he's just a pathetic guy and um unfortunately all we really have different than 0.98
00:01:54.180 the uk here is a time we're a much bigger country but if we don't pay attention and look at what's 0.99
00:02:00.920 happening in the uk and fight against that and prevent it we're going to be just as screwed as
00:02:07.060 they are and right now it is bad the police uh what they're doing over there to the the british 0.75
00:02:18.900 citizens not the illegals or the legal immigrants they're bringing in uh is outrageous the the big
00:02:29.000 crime of last week in the UK was putting up British flags, England's flags, which someone
00:02:41.340 pointed out in the comments section of some of these posts, the police have an English
00:02:49.020 flag, the flag of Britain, on their uniform.
00:02:53.360 Yet it's illegal, for some reason, it's deemed a hate crime over there, to raise that flag up and fly it because it is considered some type of hatred toward immigrants.
00:03:12.120 Once your country gets to that level, it's done.
00:03:17.520 Years ago, I almost understood the burning of the flag thing.
00:03:22.260 I never would have done it, and I didn't condone it, but I could understand it as a tool of protest.
00:03:31.040 You're pissed at the government.
00:03:33.620 You want to voice your opinion.
00:03:36.780 Obviously, your First Amendment right allows you that, so you burn the flag.
00:03:42.180 In essence, you're burning the things you disagree with in America.
00:03:49.280 now the american flag is looked at as this terrible symbol uh not not to be used as as
00:04:00.840 something to protest and burn it and say what i'm burning here uh is my my opinion of what
00:04:09.260 the government is doing i don't like what they're doing now it's a hatred of america
00:04:14.640 they don't like this country and they burn the flag and a lot of people blow it off like
00:04:21.100 all right what's a flag who cares it's just cloth men uh the symbolism is everything it's everything
00:04:29.900 it symbolizes something uh and it symbolizes all those things i spoke of uh earlier that we hold
00:04:40.100 dear to being American and when you see what's going on over in the UK you can't even raise
00:04:49.340 the nation's flag up a flagpole because they have deemed that offensive to the invaders
00:05:00.060 the people that are coming to your country and want to change every aspect of it make
00:05:08.780 it unbelievably oppressive and they're they're getting help they're getting everything they need
00:05:17.920 from the government that's in place from the police force that answers to that government
00:05:23.820 and and people that just want to express their pride in being british are being arrested
00:05:32.840 a five-year-old i think it was was he oh no 11 is an english kid had five cops on him
00:05:44.020 five cops came over and uh he wasn't arrested but he was taken away he was removed from
00:05:54.140 the area because he was trying to raise
00:05:58.100 a British flag and there were
00:06:02.280 Muslims there and Indians and other people 1.00
00:06:06.320 that have no want or need or 1.00
00:06:10.180 ambition to assimilate to Western culture.
00:06:14.960 How the hell did that happen?
00:06:19.900 I see videos
00:06:21.880 on YouTube of Britain from the 60s, 70s.
00:06:29.860 And there was such an amazing vibe about that country.
00:06:37.320 You know, for how America is known as this Wild West,
00:06:41.400 gunslingers, you know, will go down to Texas
00:06:45.100 and put some longhorn steer horns on the front of our Cadillac 0.60
00:06:51.360 and drink whiskey and shoot our guns.
00:06:55.100 England had this kind of respectability
00:06:58.280 and their monarchy meant something
00:07:05.280 and there was the English way of doing things.
00:07:10.320 And even though we kind of laughed at it a lot of times
00:07:12.780 because we're the rambunctious younger brother,
00:07:17.700 we respected it and it was cool.
00:07:21.360 And a lot of people wanted to go there to experience that.
00:07:25.960 And, you know, years ago, I remember wanting to sit in an English pub
00:07:30.860 and talk to people.
00:07:35.380 And, you know, we had a common language.
00:07:39.180 And now I couldn't imagine from what I'm seeing over there.
00:07:44.440 And look, I'm sure I could go to one or two pubs
00:07:47.480 and there'll be traditional English pubs with English people.
00:07:52.740 But the idea that you have to find that, and it's not just anywhere,
00:07:58.080 and that I can't walk in Piccadilly Circus,
00:08:02.720 and it's going to look like Times Square in New York. 0.99
00:08:06.080 It's just going to be foreigners and people that don't like America in Times Square.
00:08:11.560 They don't like Britain in Piccadilly. 0.99
00:08:15.460 It's sad.
00:08:17.480 And there's such a tiny nation that that infection spreads and goes deep very quickly.
00:08:24.380 And especially when you don't see anyone of any merit of any power wanting to change it and having the ability to do it right now, as we speak, it's getting worse.
00:08:38.740 there are more illegal invaders legal invaders that they're letting in that are just going to
00:08:47.120 dismantle the united kingdom and that's sad it's sad to me when you travel well your klm royal
00:08:57.180 dutch airlines ticket takes you to more than just your destination it takes you to front row views
00:09:03.380 voices lost in the music
00:09:05.620 and new shared memories
00:09:07.340 and when the last song fades
00:09:10.160 the KLM Royal Dutch Airlines crew
00:09:14.460 is here to ensure your journey home
