00:00:31.000Get involved with Turning PointUSA today at tpusa.com.
00:00:52.000His spirit, his love of this country, he's done an amazing job building one of the most powerful youth organizations ever created, Turning Point USA.
00:01:00.000We will not embrace the ideas that have destroyed countries, destroyed lives, and we are going to fight for freedom on campuses across the country.
00:01:12.000Brought to you by the Loan Experts I Trust, Andrew and Todd at Sierra Pacific Mortgage at andrewandTodd.com.
00:01:22.000One of the tricks of the left is they make you fight on issues that shouldn't actually be issues.
00:01:29.000If I would have told you 20 or 30 years ago that we would be having protests and screaming matches over having men who are cheaters, narcissists, freaks, compete in female sports, I'd say, hold on a second.
00:02:00.000And of course, we saw it in swimming where the cheat, Thomas, man who thinks he's a woman, appropriating womanhood, won the NCAA championship.
00:02:08.000And the first runner-up, the person who should have won the national championship, Riley Gaines.
00:02:13.000Riley Gaines from the University of Kentucky.
00:02:14.000And she has a lot of courage, moral clarity.
00:02:16.000She's been speaking out about the injustice, the unfairness that used to always be something the left would talk about.
00:02:26.000We just had Women Equality Month, where they actually used Dylan Mulvaney in some advertisements, and they use Thomas as saying, ESPN did a whole thing, Disney, saying, look, we're advancing women's progress.
00:03:17.000Last week was a holy week, and we didn't have to be hosting events, but no, no, our Turning Point USA team, the front lines, they said, you know what, we want to host an event in San Francisco, not just San Francisco, but University of Albany as well.
00:03:49.000We decided to host Riley Gaines, the woman who was really cheated out of a national championship by a man.
00:03:57.000She was there to talk about saving female sports.
00:03:59.000That was the name of her speech, to save female sports.
00:04:02.000Riley Gaines shows up at the Turning Point USA chapter at San Francisco State University and is met by some of the most angry terrorists you could imagine.
00:05:11.000And that should, of course, be treated with compassion and care and should be given serious, addressed very seriously.
00:05:21.000The way to address it is not to reaccommodate society and to change our customs or our traditions or our practices or our sports just because a bunch of people have mental problems.
00:07:07.000And that's not that great of a clip, but basically they're outside holding her hostage, demanding ransom.
00:07:15.000She was violently assaulted by these trans activists.
00:07:17.000And again, these people deserve care, but when you start to inject testosterone replacement therapy and these people start to act super erratic and violent, don't be surprised.
00:07:28.000When you start to inject artificial treatments of testosterone to women and they start acting really violently because it's not in their natural hormone production, don't be shocked.
00:08:46.000The vice president of the university, San Francisco State University, released this statement and she said that, or the head Jamila Moore complimenting the students, called them brave.
00:09:00.000It's a good thing that you guys assaulted Riley Gaines.
00:09:06.000So the people that are in charge of society, the people that should be saying, this is a bad idea.
00:09:13.000Stop doing this, despite it being pseudo-kidnapping and pseudo-extortion, are calling it brave and saying it was done peacefully.
00:09:22.000It's so Orwelly and it's such a lie because deep down, Jamila Moore is afraid of the trans terrorists, and she should be.
00:09:30.000These people are very, very scary if you don't actually have a plan and an understanding of who these people are because they can do whatever they want.
00:09:39.000A trans person was going to shoot up a bunch of churches in Colorado.
00:09:49.000No, we have now decided as a society because good people are too afraid to stand up and do something, that if you have a deep-seated mental illness, then all of a sudden the society is yours.
00:11:37.000You should show up to any college campus you want to be able to speak about whatever you want, let alone something decent, something virtuous.
00:11:51.000We have a completely different philosophy at Turning Point USA.
00:11:55.000It matters that we showed up at San Francisco State University.
00:11:58.000By the way, it's not just isolated to that.
00:12:01.000We had a Isabel Brown, one of our Turning Point USA contributors, tried to show up at Virginia Commonwealth University, VCU.
00:12:08.000Entire event hijacked alongside Student for Life's Kristen Hawkins.
00:12:12.000Protesters threw punches and injured a chapter president.
00:12:15.000University of Albany, featuring pro-life speaker Ian Hayworth, interrupted by anti-Christian far-left students who proceeded to destroy a Bible, which could be interpreted as a hate crime, or at least an act of hate.
00:12:28.000And by the way, you might say, oh, Charlie, that's not true.
00:12:42.000Now, by the way, if a trans speaker, let's say that, you know, the Budweiser guy, the Dylan, the Dylan the Freak Show, shows up at a campus, and let's pretend a group of Christian-bearded men interrupted Dylan's speech.
00:13:03.000Do you think that that would be national news?
00:13:07.000And by the way, there were seven to ten uniformed and plain-clothed campus police officers, and it was just a 75-person event.
00:13:16.000And by the way, just so we're clear, you know, at Turning Point USA, we spend literally close to a million dollars a year on security as it is because of all the death threats.
00:13:23.000And so, yes, we're going to increase it.
00:15:53.000They're the new moral compass of our country.
00:15:58.000And I got to blame conservatives for this because for the last couple of years, I've heard conservatives say, well, Charlie, why does it impact you?
00:16:04.000If somebody really believes they are somebody, why don't we just lay off this issue?
00:16:09.000That sort of line of thinking gets us to a place where Riley Gaines shows up on campus and gets terrorized.
00:16:19.000And again, I just want to be very clear.
00:16:21.000If a group of trans people show up and speak on a campus, let's just say Dylan Mulvaney or whomever, and a bunch of Christians start, and they wouldn't do this, but a bunch of Christians interrupted them and stormed the event.
00:16:41.000That would be treated, maybe not as a hate crime, but it would be treated in the national media as despicable and terrible.
00:16:47.000But no, they have a moral license to do this because they're trying to take over the entire country.
00:16:53.000And the trans social contagion is how they think they're going to do it.
00:17:10.00031 whole fruits and veggies in a capsule.
00:17:12.000I know a lot of people who take supplements and formulated nutrition packs, but Balance of Nature goes right to the source.
00:17:18.000Real fruits and veggies, all that nutrition captured with their advanced vacuum-cold process, packed in a capsule and sent to your doorstep.
00:17:25.000I give my body what it needs because feeling great is important to me.
00:17:28.000Getting good daily nutrition is the foundation of all aspects of good health.
00:17:32.000And that is why you hear me talking about Balance of Nature on my show.

00:18:22.000Riley Gaines joined Tucker Carlson to explain what happened while she was talking about women's sports, female sports.
00:18:30.000And the head of the university calls the people the assailant, not the assailants, the people that, I guess, is that the technical term, people that committed assault, the assaulters, I guess you could say.
00:19:08.000They were scared to put their hands on these people because they know what these people are capable of.
00:19:13.000These people yelled obscene, violent, vulgar things to both myself and the officers.
00:19:19.000And the officers, I could tell, didn't feel comfortable putting them in a position that would mean they do their job, which is a really scary, chilling thought.
00:19:29.000Well, yeah, I mean, obviously, what they're capable of is acts of violence with total impunity.
00:19:35.000I mean, they're able to do whatever they want to do.
00:19:38.000The entire society panders to the mentally deranged.
00:19:42.000I hate to oversimplify, but we're at a place now where they could do whatever they want.
00:19:48.000They get lucrative corporate contracts, they can commit acts of violence, they can say whatever they want.
00:19:53.000For example, I mean, I can't tell you how many death threats we get from trans people, and the police kind of just shrug their shoulders and like, well, there's not much we can do, and we'll guess follow the process, which, of course, if a Christian conservative put death threats against a trans person, I'm sure that the police would get right into gear.
00:20:13.000The rule of law is completely upside down, obviously.
00:20:17.000And it's not even a matter of free speech at this point.
00:20:21.000It's now a situation where we have to rearrange our speech, our planned campus speeches, what pronouns we use, because we're afraid of them.
00:20:43.000You see, the trans lobby, the alphabet mafia, they are willing to use power to force us to act outside of what we know to be correct and true.
00:21:01.000And yes, you better believe at Turning Point USA, we're looking at it right now, a civil lawsuit for the assault, a civil lawsuit into all of it that happened there.
00:21:09.000We'll see if we're successful or not, as we're also trying to look into a lawsuit for University of California Davis.
00:21:16.000The courts are tricky and unpredictable.
00:21:20.000I want to play another piece of tape here.
00:21:22.000Tucker continues with Riley Gaines, calling the trans movement the most dangerous extremist movement in the United States.
00:21:28.000Mind you, the FBI, Department of Homeland Security, they say it's all white supremacy, when in reality, it's trans delusion that is the real threat.
00:22:06.000When we have people who are willing to do this, and we know why they're willing to do this, it's because they don't have reason, they don't have logic, they don't have science, they don't have common sense on their side.
00:23:11.000Matt Walsh has had to go into basically a form of like the witness protection program.
00:23:17.000He's had to cancel all public events because of the amount of death threats going towards his family.
00:23:24.000And this is a segue into, I want to talk about the Kentucky shooting, and it's just tragic that we have another mass shooting in our country.
00:23:32.000I said something last week at Awakened Church in Salt Lake City that I stand 100% by, but it's being taken out of context by the media.
00:23:40.000It's being clipped to try to make me seem as if I said something I did not say.
00:23:46.000I'm going to play cut 17, then 18, where I said we need to talk honestly about the purpose of the Second Amendment.
00:23:52.000Number one, the purpose of the Second Amendment is to defend ourselves against a potentially tyrannical government.
00:24:54.000And I say that because we live under this delusion that somehow we can get gun deaths down to zero.
00:25:03.000So if you come from the premise that we're going to have an armed citizenry, you're going to have a cost.
00:25:10.000And I'm not making light of the tragedies, obviously.
00:25:13.000If you hear this video that's being taken wildly out of context by the media, they're making it seem as if I was making light of the tragedies, that I was somehow delighting in this.
00:25:40.000Because the other side, they say, elect us, give us political power, and we'll get rid of all the gun deaths.
00:25:45.000The only way you can do that is by confiscating the hundreds of millions of weapons that we have in our society.
00:25:50.000We're not delighting or saying that, having joy that there are deaths related with firearms in this country.
00:25:56.000We want to try to have the spirit of reduction.
00:25:59.000The solution, of course, is hardening schools and increasing the amount of fathers in homes, having more people that are able to own guns to protect themselves.
00:26:08.000But if you come, if you present your argument with the perspective, which you should, that an armed citizenry is moral and necessary, then you're not going to eliminate all gun deaths.
00:26:38.000But what did I actually say that was worth it?
00:26:41.000I said the deal, the prudent deal, is that if you acknowledge that you have liberty, you're going to have tragic costs with liberty, period.
00:26:50.000You have cars, you have tens of thousands of people that die on the road.
00:26:55.000But the cost of being able to have automobile transportation, not the cost or the benefit, is worth the cost.
00:27:48.000You're going to have people that are double personality.
00:27:51.000And so therefore, if you acknowledge an armed citizenry is necessary, which of course it is, then you're going to have to live with the fact that some people are going to do some awful and cruel things.
00:28:24.000It's not something like, yay, no, but it's real.
00:28:28.000And again, I'm not running for political office, so I just say things that are true because people tap dance around it.
00:28:34.000But the Democrats will say we got to get rid of all guns.
00:28:37.000We have to reduce gun deaths to zero because if it was about gun deaths, then it actually wouldn't be quote unquote about assault rifles, made up term, made up distinction.
00:28:45.000The vast majority of gun deaths in America are done with a pistol.
00:28:48.000Now, they won't tell you this because in the articles where they're mocking me, Charlie Kirk says that gun deaths are worth it.
00:29:14.000The benefit of having guns, unfortunately, is worth the tragic elements that come with reality.
00:29:24.000If you're unwilling to say that, then you're living in an alternate universe.
00:29:29.000So then the question should be about reduction.
00:29:31.000I'm going to show you how we can do that in a second.
00:29:34.000And by the way, if you look at the articles where they attack me, they say, well, there's over 40,000 people that die every single year with gun deaths.
00:29:42.000We're the only country in the world that counts death by suicide with a gun as a gun death.
00:29:47.000Now, I'm not trivializing that, but that's a technically different thing.
00:29:52.000That is an act of self-harm that has nothing to do with the gun.
00:29:58.000And they'll say, oh, well, it has everything to do with the gun.
00:30:14.000I think it's worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment to protect our other God-given rights.
00:30:56.000What we got to do if we really want to see homicides go down is keep bad guys with guns in jail because when they're in jail, they can't be in community shooting people.
00:31:05.000So when people talk about what we're going to do different or what we should do different, what we need to do different, that's the thing that we need to do different.
00:31:12.000We need to keep violent people in jail.
00:31:14.000Right now, the average homicide suspect, the average homicide suspect has been arrested 11 times prior to them committing a homicide.
00:31:35.000It would be one thing if they were locking up these criminals for a long period of time and violent crime was falling.
00:31:39.000I would still oppose any sort of gun confiscation measures.
00:31:42.000But with crime going up and free bail and people that are being released, now's not the time to take the weapons away from the people that want to protect themselves.
00:31:55.000Republicans believe that criminals with guns should go to jail.
00:32:03.000So yes, to go back to the clip that has now gone viral and the left is losing their mind over it and every decent constitutionalist agrees that having liberty comes with a cost, but of course comes with the benefit too.
00:32:19.000The benefit of driving has enriched my life and enriched your life.
00:32:22.000The benefit of flying has enriched your life and my life.
00:32:25.000It goes back to the Benjamin Franklin quote.
00:32:27.000Those who are willing to trade liberty for security will have neither.
00:32:34.000And by the way, the gun violence comes mainly from criminals being released onto the streets by Democrats in gang-related situations.
00:32:43.000The mass shootings get a lot of headlines.
00:32:45.000But urban gang, largely handgun deaths, by the way, is what drives gun violence in this country.
00:32:54.000And it's centered really in like 10 or 15 cities, largely Democrat cities, some Republicans, but largely Democrat.
00:33:02.000And the Soros district attorneys have no bail.
00:33:06.000And so you have Alvin Bragg, who's using power to go after a former president.
00:33:10.000And then we have to be lectured by the mainstream media that we have too many guns.
00:33:15.000As I said at my show, isn't it interesting how there's no mass shootings at gun shows?
00:33:19.000And if there was, it'd be neutralized in just a second.
00:33:23.000It's not the technology that is doing it.
00:33:46.000Now, you might say, oh, Charlie, I don't want to live in that kind of militarized society.
00:33:49.000I'm afraid we're already heading towards that.
00:33:52.000And I would rather have citizens have that ability where it's decentralized than just the government have that ability where it's centralized.
00:34:00.000So you must be clear about the purpose of the Second Amendment.
00:34:04.000The purpose of the Second Amendment is there to protect all the other amendments.
00:34:08.000That only the government having the guns is immoral and it's dangerous and it's wrong.
00:34:11.000It's totalitarian and it's tyrannical.
