Chud the Builder, charged with attempted murder, among other things like negligent discharge of a firearm.
00:00:10.060
And the first bit of the context, for those that don't know who this guy is, is he is a streamer online.
00:00:14.500
He walks around, says he's engaging in his free speech rights to say what he wants.
00:00:21.320
And often the videos you end up seeing going viral are him walking around live streaming,
00:00:25.980
dropping racial slurs and accusing black men of chimping out. Now, of course, for a variety of
00:00:31.920
reasons, these videos have gone viral. It's shock content. Some of it is admittedly humorous,
00:00:37.520
not the more extreme stuff. I'm not a big fan of intentionally antagonizing people,
00:00:41.940
but there are clips that end up going viral. And it's not about the overt racial slurs. It's about
00:00:47.700
just a guy walking down the street live streaming. That does get him some fans. But I think for a lot
00:00:53.840
of it, people genuinely enjoy his racist content. I'm not saying all people everywhere. I'm saying
00:01:00.020
he has found an audience of people who agree with him, who like watching him go out and push back
00:01:06.840
on these social justice narratives. Although this is a particularly contentious issue. And there's
00:01:12.700
a lot to break down in the morality of it and the law of it. And the big question is, should he have
00:01:18.480
been charged with attempted murder. Last night on Timcast IRL, I predicted this guy's going to
00:01:23.840
prison. He will have the book thrown at him and there's not going to be a jury who will find him
00:01:29.340
not guilty. And I know a lot of people are going to get mad. They say, dude, let me give you the
00:01:33.600
story real quick. We'll go through everything because I don't want to, I don't want to drop
00:01:37.200
the lead on this one. He was walking out of a courtroom. He's, he says things, he insults
00:01:41.820
people. Apparently some guy told him, don't you dare say this thing to me, to which he said the
00:01:47.580
guy attacked him. Then he's getting whaled on. Apparently, he then draws a weapon and shoots the
00:01:53.500
guy and in the scuffle shoots himself as well. They have charged him. And I'm going to break
00:01:58.960
down exactly why. And the first and most important thing you need to understand about why I say
00:02:02.500
he's going to get locked up is social justice is the law of the land. And a lot of people
00:02:08.140
are upset by that. They want to push back on it. They're mad that we don't see the inverse. In fact,
00:02:12.820
we just had the mural of Irina Zarutska torn down. I think this was in Ohio. So this is why
00:02:19.440
people are mad. So I want to do a couple things in breaking down the story. The current standing
00:02:25.640
of social justice in this country and the individual merits of this case for which
00:02:30.780
they're clashing. Because on the surface, I think most people are going to say this dude,
00:02:37.700
and I want to make sure you understand what I'm saying. When I say this dude's going to jail
00:02:39.940
Again, it's because the machine will say you are a racist and racists go to jail.
00:02:47.220
That is going to be the bias of basically everybody.
00:02:50.500
Then there's the individual merits of the case, which pertains to the ideas of provocation,
00:02:55.960
past behaviors, and ultimately what it would lead to.
00:03:00.260
I think in an individual sense, he would likely be charged with something.
00:03:05.120
I don't think he'd get up on self-defense, but attempted murder seems to go a bit beyond a bit
00:03:12.520
beyond. So I'll put it like this as we get started, because it's a very contentious issue. I'm trying
00:03:16.920
to be careful. You know, I want to make sure I get through everything before everybody starts
00:03:20.780
exploding. Attempted murder seems pretty crazy for a case like this. That's because of the social
00:03:28.200
justice nature of our legal system and our society. There likely would still be charges
00:03:35.400
But let me explain why as we go through the story,
00:03:42.780
and what it ultimately means in the bigger picture
00:03:47.420
And again, the reason why I want to talk about this
00:03:49.400
is the element of social justice in our society
00:03:58.520
And I, as a mixed race person, don't see any of that.
00:04:01.060
I don't apparently don't get the white privilege, but I also don't get the minority privileges.
0.81
00:04:08.340
And there are some questions to be made, to be asked.
00:04:13.360

Chud the Builder charged with attempted murder after a courthouse shooting.
00:04:54.840
the controversial streamer has now been charged in connection with Wednesday's wild shooting
00:04:58.680
outside of Tennessee Courthouse. The Montgomery County Sheriff's Office announced that Chud,
00:05:03.160
whose real name is Dalton Earthly, was charged and booked for criminal attempt, murder,
00:05:08.400
employing a firearm during a dangerous felony, aggravated assault, and reckless endangerment
00:05:13.540
with a deadly weapon. Wow, I thought there was a negligence thing in there. I guess not.
00:05:16.700
I want to stress this. Attempted murder, committing a felony. This is where I think
00:05:23.180
it's going too far. And for obvious reasons that I think Dalton, I think this was the driver of who
00:05:30.280
he is and what he does. So the story goes that this guy apparently was driving a work truck.
00:05:36.080
I don't know if you guys remember this. It was like a big viral moment. And apparently he got
00:05:40.680
into an altercation with some black people. He threw down a racial slur. He said, Edward chill
0.68
00:05:45.920
or something like that. They attacked him. He gets fired and loses his job. I remember we talked
00:05:51.200
about this. Like, bro, come on. Like, this is stupid. Like, don't don't like. You get fired
00:05:57.300
over an altercation. You know what I mean? Like, this is the nature of our society right now.
00:06:01.960
But Homeboy apparently raised some money for this, created a social media platform,
00:06:07.000
got defended by a lot of people who are upset that it's a one way street in social justice.
00:06:13.400
You are not allowed as a white person to use slurs, but black people, Latinos, Asians,
00:06:17.240
they can use slurs against you. So naturally, a lot of people get pissed at the double standard.
00:06:22.280
So then kicks off his streaming career where he walks around and he goes up to people and he
00:06:30.580
throws down racial slurs because he's just like, let's roll. Now, I don't want to get into the
00:06:34.900
bigger picture just yet. I just want to give you a bit of the background before we get into this.
00:06:38.920
But committing a felony, he was leaving a courthouse. Let me read, let me read, let me
00:06:44.080
because I'm going to rant on this one like crazy. On Wednesday afternoon, officers responded to a
00:06:49.540
call of shots fired outside the Montgomery County Courthouse and detained two men who got into a
00:06:54.880
fight that escalated into gunfire. The men suffered bullet wounds, with one being transported to a
00:07:00.040
local hospital and the other treated at the scene. Both were listed in stable condition.
00:07:04.200
The Montgomery County District Attorney's General Office identified Earthly as a suspect
00:07:08.020
who was taken into custody before he was formally charged. Earthly live streamed the entire incident,
00:07:13.040
claiming he was jumped outside the courthouse and fired shots in self-defense.
00:07:17.700
He also said he accidentally shot himself in all the confusion.
00:07:20.860
Last week, Earth laid another run-in with the law in Nashville
00:07:23.040
where he was arrested for disorderly conduct and theft of services.
00:07:28.560
who asked him to stop filming them at a restaurant
00:07:48.960
He was saying something to the effect of like, leave me alone.
00:07:52.960
This restaurant then said, we're going to kick you.
0.87
00:07:54.980
And he says, if you're kicking out, I ain't paying.
00:07:58.080
Apparently, the next day, the cops are like, theft of services.
00:08:04.140
Colin Ruggs says, streamer Chud the Builder has been charged with attempted murder.
00:08:14.780
Quote, he said, you start saying all that chimp out ish to me and I'm a hit you.
0.95
00:08:21.500
According to officials, the victim who was shot by Earthly was medically evacuated and is in stable condition.
00:08:27.880
Earthly appeared to accidentally shoot himself in the arm.
00:08:30.460
Earthly was also charged with aggravated assault, reckless endangerment with a deadly weapon and employing a firearm during a dangerous felony.
00:08:36.540
Now, the question I said, we do have video of it.
00:08:42.220
So you can see there's the police running in and grabbing them. I don't know who they're fighting with.
00:08:54.020
I gotta be honest, I don't know that this video, these are the actual videos of what happened.
00:09:03.780
Yeah. Yeah, it sounds, it seems like the video's legit.
00:09:10.780
So as it turns out, this guy who was shot, his name is Joshua Fox.
1.00
00:09:17.560
I believe that's the name that's being reported.
00:09:25.100
Now, a lot of people are accusing this guy, Joshua Fox, of being a known criminal with
00:09:32.500
And many people are pushing back saying that's a different guy.
00:09:40.120
This guy, Robbie Harvey, says, I spoke with Joshua's family.
00:09:44.080
The long-term health complications for the military veteran is unknown at this time.
00:09:52.180
This guy, N.O. Lolling, says, no thanks, and lists Montgomery County rap sheet.
00:09:57.300
And this person says, thanks for the engagement.
00:10:02.320
It says, Clarksville, Tennessee, on April 18th, 31-year-old Jethro Fox was involved
00:10:08.960
However, the response to this is that that's a different person.
1.00
00:10:13.360
That's not the same guy, you illiterate moron.
1.00
00:10:17.480
On top of the pending cases, they say Chud Bomber is just a criminal, blah, blah, blah, blah.
0.99
00:10:22.180
So I don't know if that's the same guy and people are pushing this.
00:10:25.180
I also want to stress that people were also putting out fake news about who this guy is as well, showing a different guy.
00:10:33.580
This woman, Taylor Day, says the black guy shot by Chud was hunting him,
00:10:37.900
showing tweets from a guy saying he is near my city.
00:10:41.540
The issue, however, and this guy also tweeted, I'm about to chimp out.
00:10:48.080
This guy was posting this stuff on X, still posting.
00:10:52.540
So we have this from GoFundMe where the guy who got shot, I don't like,
00:10:59.180
OK, I'm going to I'm going to break down a bit of what we think happened and and talk about self-defense and stuff.
00:11:04.700
This GoFundMe standing with Josh and family after shooting.
00:11:09.720
Let's see. And he's got twenty twenty two thousand dollars raised and looks like his wife, I believe.
00:11:20.400
Hello, everyone. It saddens me to come and ask for help.
00:11:22.140
But today at the Montgomery County Courthouse in Clarksville, my husband was involved in an altercation that led to him being shot by a man known as Chud the Builder,
00:11:27.640
who is widely known for making racial slurs towards people of color.
00:11:31.500
My husband, Josh, was shot in the stomach and shoulder.
00:11:34.340
As of the latest update, he's in stable condition,
00:11:36.600
but the emotional and financial impact this will have on our family is unimaginable.
00:11:41.000
There's no telling how long I may be out of work to help care for my husband,
00:11:44.480
who is already a disabled veteran and suffers from other medical conditions.
00:11:48.220
Our children are also struggling through this difficult time.
00:11:50.920
I'm not asking for a lot, but if you feel it in your heart's out,
00:11:53.220
please consider donating to support our family during this time of need.
00:11:55.760
If you're unable to help financially, we completely understand and simply ask that you keep us in your prayers.
00:12:03.560
Now, Chud also has his own fundraiser, which has been around a bit longer.
00:12:07.980
And this was back when he lost his job, for which in this period of time, which I believe is going back six or seven months, he's raised $92,000.
00:12:17.420
Dear friends and supporters and champions of free speech, my name is Dalton Earthly.
00:12:20.760
And I'm reaching out with a heavy heart, fighting to protect my family and my business.
00:12:23.920
Just over one year ago, I started daily contracting in Clarksville out of sheer necessity.
00:12:28.340
I was fired from my previous contracting job after BLM activists targeted me over words
00:12:32.060
I shared online, jokes and opinions they twisted to end my career.
00:12:35.360
With no other way to support my family and my precious two-year-old son, I poured everything
00:12:39.920
into the small business, working tirelessly to provide for my family and build a future.
00:12:47.160
I do want to highlight this real quick on the previous arrest that happened.
00:13:21.020
months of being attacked by our government for expressing the constitutional freedoms
00:13:27.880
It is not illegal for white people to say the same word they say to each other.
00:13:32.240
So let's talk about the bigger picture here.
0.56
00:13:39.800
And what is going on in the grand scheme of social media where people are going around
00:13:45.480
and just engaging in the most extreme of behaviors?
00:13:55.240
And I'm also going to cite Mike Tyson, who said people have gotten real comfortable with
00:13:59.820
talking smack without getting punched in the face.
00:14:02.680
There's a reality to you walking around and insulting people in increasingly aggressive
00:14:11.820
I don't know if you guys have ever seen these videos where YouTubers will walk around and
00:14:16.020
intentionally use racial slurs against black people to get attention.
00:14:22.480
There was one video, there's a ton of these videos, guys, but there's one instance, an
00:14:26.720
A guy pretends like he's trying to break into a car.
0.89
00:14:30.060
Then the owner, who's black, runs up and pushes him down and punches him.
00:14:36.780
There's a bunch of videos where white dudes walk in a black neighborhood and a guy goes,
00:14:43.760
And then the black guys go, what did you just say to me, dude?
0.96
00:14:48.560
probably staged because everybody knows what my neighbor is and the idea is it sounds enough like
00:14:55.360
they might mishear you there's a bunch of these videos where the white dude walks up and he goes
00:15:00.080
oh man a nickel and he picks a nickel off the ground and they go hey man what did you just
00:15:06.420
say as if anything with near uh for the you know tony hinchcliffe had a joke where he said something
00:15:12.200
like what did what did he say they're they're acting like ninjas and then everyone like
00:15:17.920
chuckled or whatever because it was a Kevin Hart roast. So the point of this content, it's fake
00:15:22.620
racist shock. It's, it's, it's, it's meant to be like, oh, look, it's just crazy. People love
00:15:27.940
watching this stuff. With Chud the Builder, I think we've seen a handful of these personalities.
00:15:34.160
There was that woman, I can't remember her name was Shiloh something, where she called a kid the
00:15:39.600
N-word because he was, she claims he was rifling through her purse. I don't know if that was
00:15:42.800
adjudicated. We know what would actually happen, but that was the claim. And then everyone got
00:15:46.180
met at her, tried getting her fired. And then a bunch of white people were like, you know what,
00:15:49.560
we don't care anymore. And they gave her a bunch of money. Let me tell you something.
00:15:54.960
I think the double standard is miserably bad. The idea that like only white people can't insult
0.81
00:16:00.820
other people based on race. Now, don't get me wrong. Nobody should be insulting anybody based
0.54
00:16:05.000
on race. But I don't think you should get criminal charges for it. Hate crime laws are BS.
00:16:10.260
and y'all want to play games, this is what you get.
0.98
00:16:17.400
insulting a white person or an Asian person
0.81
00:16:19.580
or a Mexican person or anybody based on race,
0.59
00:16:22.000
don't be surprised when it's thrown back in your face.
00:16:28.440
You can't be like, but look at the history of this country,
00:16:36.100
then people should stop attacking each other based on race.
00:16:38.960
So that means this idea that black people can go out and call people cracker or whatever
00:16:44.520
they want to call them, and I don't even get in trouble for saying cracker on social media.
0.91
00:16:59.000
I can't speak for this individual circumstance, which we'll get to in a second, but prior
00:17:04.880
behavior is going to play a role in these charges and what the juries see. I do not believe there is
00:17:12.980
a jury in this country, I swear, I don't care where you are, you could be deep south, that is
00:17:18.120
going to find him not guilty. First, let's talk about the overcharge. Attempted murder? Bro, even
00:17:26.640
if it was that he would, like, imagine a scenario. Chud walks out of the building and he sees a
00:17:32.540
random black guy, and then just walks up to him and starts screaming the N-word at him.
0.62
00:17:36.600
The dude then punches him and starts beating him. If that were the case, I don't know you'd
0.88
00:17:41.280
get attempted murder on that one. Like, starting a fight, shooting him. Attempted murder? I mean,
00:17:49.020
that's pretty wild. There's a heavy charge in that. Don't get me wrong. Like, you go up to
00:17:53.740
someone and do that, there's going to be charges. Now, as the story goes, an altercation started.
00:18:00.340
Having seen Chud's videos, he does walk up to groups of black guys and then start when
00:18:05.720
things get heated, like, why are you filming me?
00:18:08.800
And then when people get angry, he starts calling them racial slurs.
00:18:15.920
But this one's different, not all, as provocation.
00:18:19.060
Provocation is any action or word that can reasonably be assumed that a reasonable person
00:18:24.980
would believe could lead to a violent altercation.
00:18:29.560
Provocation is not illegal, but it does reduce your ability to defend, which plays a role in
00:18:37.200
Chud the Builder's case. Now, again, I don't know about this individual case, but big picture.
00:18:42.640
First, I called this last night when we were talking about an IRA. I said, this dude's going
00:18:47.540
to get charged with the book. They're going to lock him up. Why? This BLM country, you probably
00:18:53.500
don't like it. Wokeness is being crushed and defeated, but take a look at Derek Chauvin.
1.00
00:19:00.180
The jurors were brought into the courthouse under armed guard with rifles from far left
00:19:07.860
The Kyle Rittenhouse case, I think it was a Rittenhouse case, a journalist stalked the
00:19:12.980
They're supposed to be kept secret who they are so they can't be interfered with.
00:19:17.420
So this guy, if Chud goes to trial, bro, I'm telling you, you're going to have a jury and
00:19:21.760
they're going to be like, I'm not going to be the dude that votes not guilty.
00:19:27.140
That's what I'm saying. So double standard in effect. Now, self-defense. He ain't got a
00:19:33.240
self-defense claim. I'm sorry, guys. I know people are going to get mad to hear. They're
00:19:37.100
going to be mad to hear that. There's going to be a lot of people claiming it was clearly
00:19:40.060
self-defense. Nope. I think if we're doing a bell curve here, what is the most, like the
00:19:47.120
Occam's razor situation? We know he live streams. We know that he accuses black people of chimping
00:19:53.480
out and calls him the N-word and things like this. That is viewed largely in most instances as a
0.83
00:19:58.960
provocation. It is. You might not like it. I'm not saying it should be that way. I'm saying that's
00:20:04.640
how it's perceived by most people and by the courts. In which case, you can defend yourself,
00:20:10.860
but it's going to reduce what is considered to be proportional or reasonable in these circumstances.
00:20:15.740
Let's say that Chud the Builder walks out of the courtroom live streaming. This guy recognizes him
00:20:20.720
and says, don't you dare say it. I'm not going to let you speak out. Then we get to that Mike
00:20:26.920
Tyson situation where, as he said, people feel comfortable talking smack without getting punched
00:20:31.900
in the face. So let's say he does say he's chimping out and causing the N-word. So the guy
00:20:36.920
hits him. Let's say that Chud hits him back. Nothing happens. That's it. Probably nobody
1.00
00:20:43.300
gets charged. They're going to say, listen, if somebody's insulting you and throwing slurs around,
00:20:48.620
they have a free speech, a First Amendment right to do that. That is correct. He's allowed to say
00:20:53.500
these things in public. You can't attack him for it. However, a reasonable person would conclude
00:20:59.560
if you walk up to a black guy or just generally in the presence of a black person, accuse them
00:21:06.240
of chimping out and call them a racial slur, there is a decent probability that will antagonize to
0.80
00:21:11.540
the point where they will attack you. Now, again, let's go through levels. Chud walks out. He's
0.99
00:21:17.440
filming. He stands there and says, you know, don't chimp out, you know, and whatever. The guy then
0.97
00:21:22.860
hits him. Chud does nothing. The police would arrest the black guy and say, listen, you can't
00:21:28.960
attack people because they insult you. That's correct in law. Let's say Chud punches the guy
0.99
00:21:34.500
back and shoves him off. Probably nobody gets arrested, but they still might arrest the guy
00:21:38.780
who started the fight. When you pull out a gun at that point and shoot the person, my expectation
00:21:45.220
under the law and what is considered reasonable is that at that point, you have you have a
00:21:50.940
A reasonable person would conclude accusing a black man of chimping out and calling him
00:21:55.080
a slur is could potentially not always potentially result in violence.
00:21:59.300
You have brought a gun into the circumstance where you created a conflict.
00:22:04.700
You cannot use lethal force against a person when you create the conflict.
00:22:11.240
Now, I know a lot of people are going to say, how does this how is that fair?
00:22:13.960
he didn't throw the punch. It's proportionality. The argument in court is going to be that a
00:22:21.860
reasonable person would conclude you will make someone angry enough to attack you to have a gun
00:22:28.400
on your person and use it. They will then imply not in every case, but it's reasonable again to
00:22:35.020
conclude this could escalate to a lethal confrontation. Thus, you entered into a
00:22:42.380
circumstance where a reasonable person would conclude your actions would result in violence,
00:22:46.340
but you were armed with lethal force and prepared to use it. That doesn't mean attempted murder,
00:22:52.360
which is why I think attempted murder is an overcharge, but they'll probably get them on it
00:22:55.340
because we live in social justice territory, right? But my point is, if they charged him with
00:23:02.340
like aggravated assault or something, I'd be like, well, again, guys, you may not like this,
00:23:08.940
how the law plays out, but it's basically a plus B equals C. Do you think walking up to somebody
00:23:14.920
insulting them will get you punched in the face? Mike Tyson said it and everybody agreed. It used
00:23:19.140
to be that you walk up to a guy, you insult them, you got hit and the cops didn't do anything about
00:23:22.480
it. You bring a gun with you up to a guy where you insult him in such a way that is considered
00:23:28.500
to be particularly offensive. And then when he swings on you, you shoot him. You cannot create
0.99
00:23:34.800
the circumstances by which you must then defend yourself. Stressing again, you're allowed to
00:23:41.080
insult people and you are allowed to call them whatever you want, and they are not allowed to
00:23:44.560
hit you for it. But if you know it can result in you getting hit and that you'd have to then use a
00:23:51.680
gun, they're not going to let you claim self-defense. So there are certain circumstances
00:23:57.340
where this could play out. Now, I think what may help or hurt to go either way is that he live
00:24:01.940
stream this. And I think actually I have I might have the do I not have the live stream pulled up?
00:24:06.900
I thought I did have it pulled up. Oh, no, I didn't. There's actually a recording. And this
00:24:14.340
is the quote that I read already when he's like, the guy said, you start saying all that chimp
0.99
00:24:19.620
out ish to me and I'm gonna hit you. And then he hit me. Well, he live streamed it all. And for
0.98
00:24:25.380
anybody who's who's looked at Chud's content, watched his videos. I'm sorry, I'm gonna tell
00:24:32.580
you this. I think it is extremely likely that what happens is any jury is going to be dealing
00:24:38.920
with a handful of things. One, nobody wants to be the guy to defend Chud. Sorry, if it were me,
00:24:44.880
I don't care. I'd assess the facts as the facts are. I don't think attempted murder makes sense.
00:24:50.260
Chud was not trying to kill this guy. I just don't think that makes sense. I think Chud was
00:24:56.740
defending himself, but I don't think he has a total self-defense claim, but I also don't think
00:25:03.360
it warrants attempted murder. I think there is some criminal culpability here. I do not respect,
00:25:11.440
listen, I'm gonna say it like this. If Chud is minding his own business walking down the street
00:25:45.600
and creating these circumstances, which become antagonistic, I'm not a fan of that.
0.98
00:25:53.340
I'm generally not a fan of Chud walking up and just throwing racial slurs at people.
00:25:58.340
But I'll say it again, nobody should be doing that.
0.99
00:26:01.860
If they throw a slur at him first and he throws it back, you know, you reap what you sow, right?
00:26:11.820
Actually, typically, in most cases, a plea deal.
00:26:15.140
Maybe the prosecution says we're going to like, bro, let me just stress this, OK?
00:26:20.840
Dude, if you go to you go to trial on this one for attempted murder, they're locking you up for 10 years.
00:26:27.780
But do you really think any jury is going to be like not guilty?
00:26:33.940
The prosecution is going to pull up all of his past live streams.
00:26:36.460
They are going to make the argument that Chud creates these circumstances knowing full well.
00:26:41.300
First question, Mr. Chud, Mr. Earthly, have you ever been attacked while live streaming before?
00:26:50.720
I'd like you to turn to our piece of evidence, you know, 113 here, a video clip from his live
00:26:58.860
What would you say the reason is for you being attacked?
00:27:04.320
Maybe he doesn't testify, but they'll show the evidence.
00:27:06.620
In this video, you referred to a man with a racial slur, and he responded by hitting your hat or taking a swing at you.
00:27:14.340
Is it reasonable to believe that doing this could result in someone getting violent towards you?
00:27:19.420
With respect to the fact that you can't hit someone for insulting you.
00:27:23.060
We all agree you can't, but people probably would.
00:27:28.460
And this has happened to Chud in the past.
0.99
00:27:32.840
Then a circumstance arose where you knew violence has occurred in the past.
00:27:39.580
Prosecution is going to say, listen, gentlemen, this guy has a history of engaging in these kind of instigation, these kind of conflicts.
00:27:45.900
This clearly falls under Tennessee's exception provocation.
00:27:50.520
You cannot claim self-defense if you used words or took physical action that a reasonable person would believe would result in violence.
00:27:59.480
so again by all means say it's shocking that people believe insulting someone you know with
00:28:07.700
with a racial assault would result in violence it shouldn't be that way agree but everyone agrees
00:28:10.720
it would so i think that he'll likely get a plea deal they'll say we're going to drop it down to
00:28:16.240
something like an aggravated assault maybe you'll get a probation charge the challenge here is blm
00:28:21.760
country i don't think whereas in pronounced a social media era woke era where it's going to
00:28:28.580
be rides in the street or anything like that. I think both, you know, people are going to raise
00:28:32.080
a bunch of money for each other. And I think ultimately takes a plea deal, loses the right
00:28:36.200
to keep him bare arms. They're going to, they're going to say, you know, felony plea deal. Maybe
00:28:39.860
he gets probation. Maybe he gets a year or something. And then I wonder if they put other
00:28:46.800
restrictions on him with probation. They're gonna be like, don't go around streaming and don't go
00:28:50.180
around doing this stuff. Look, already a lot of people are not defending this guy. They're
00:28:54.820
pointing out that you walk around saying these things. Those are fighting words. It's just they're
00:29:00.320
fighting words. Now, don't get me wrong. He's going to tell you that throwing cracker at him
00:29:04.080
is a fight in words, too. I don't disagree. I don't disagree. The issue is bringing a gun.
00:29:09.900
He's maced people before. They get in a space. They attack him for speaking. He maced them.
00:29:14.520
You're that you're not going to get charged for that. Listen, you walk down the street and you
00:29:18.700
call someone a slur and they punch you. So you pepper spray him. You ain't getting charged.
00:29:21.920
you shoot them different story but i guess the question is for all of you guys i don't know i i
00:29:30.920
could talk on this subject for 20 years i guess you know where do you think we're going with all
00:29:34.500
this and what do you think should or or will happen again i'll stress this last night i said
00:29:38.640
he's gonna get the book thrown at him because of the country the state of our culture ain't nobody's
00:29:44.540
