Transcript

00:00:00.000 The Blaze Radio Network, on demand.
00:00:09.860 Love. Courage. Truth.
00:00:14.480 Glenn Beck.
00:00:15.380 Pat Gray and Jeffy for Glenn, who returns Columbus Day, this coming Monday.
00:00:21.940 Welcome. You know, it's really sad that we never have the discussion of gun control.
00:00:28.900 God, that never happens.
00:00:31.380 Thank you.
00:00:31.980 I mean, there's never a time for it with these Republicans and these conservatives and these gun nuts who believe in the Second Amendment.
00:00:40.640 Everybody just wants to bury their head in the sand.
00:00:42.580 That's right. They never want to talk about it.
00:00:45.240 And, of course, that's all we talk about every single time there's a tragedy, is gun control and not the people involved.
00:00:53.620 And some interesting developments happened yesterday as this continues to boil.
00:01:01.800 One of them was that the NRA kind of surprised everybody by supporting the additional regulations on bump stock,
00:01:10.200 the rapid fire device that the monster in Las Vegas used.
00:01:15.180 The group said devices designed to allow semi-automatic rifles to function like fully automatic rifles should be subject to additional regulations.
00:01:25.860 I don't know if I've ever seen the NRA favor any sort of gun control.
00:01:32.620 Maybe I've missed it, and maybe they have in the past, but this seems pretty unusual.
00:01:37.220 The NRA called yesterday for regulators to immediately review whether these devices comply with federal law.
00:01:45.500 Pretty interesting.
00:01:46.720 And are they doing that so they head off some of this discussion?
00:01:49.560 Possible. That's what I thought.
00:01:51.040 They've been so badly demonized by the left, by Democrats, and blamed for virtually everything.
00:02:00.260 So, Stephen Paddock, the gunman in Vegas, had put these accessories on at least 12 of the rifles that he used in the attack.
00:02:12.660 They typically cost less than 200 bucks.
00:02:16.280 They allow almost 100 high-velocity bullets to be fired in seven seconds.
00:02:23.320 And that's what the argument is as far as him having some kind of help, which we may never know.
00:02:29.180 But because those are difficult to use, you know, you have to have a little bit of practice and training to use those.
00:02:37.120 That's what everybody says.
00:02:38.060 Right.
00:02:38.480 So, now look, he lived in the desert, right?
00:02:40.460 I mean, you can go out and shoot bazookas off in the desert and nobody would know it.
00:02:45.100 So, he could have trained out there, but we just don't know.
00:02:47.800 And they say he's been building his arsenal for decades.
00:02:50.660 So, I don't know if he's planned this for decades.
00:02:52.760 Apparently, police have found evidence of other plans.
00:02:55.160 We talked about one of them yesterday was he had booked a hotel overlooking Lollapalooza two months ago in Chicago, but never showed up, thankfully.
00:03:04.540 And so, there was another music festival in Las Vegas that happened that he was also seemingly preparing for.
00:03:13.980 Apparently, he had explosives in his car.
00:03:15.940 Yeah.
00:03:16.200 I mean, so there was some sort of possibility of him thinking that he could escape during or after this shooting.
00:03:23.260 That's what they think.
00:03:24.120 They think he was plotting to escape, his plan was to escape, and then do more.
00:03:29.860 And they're even saying that, first of all, that note that everybody was speculating was a suicide note that's in the photos of the hotel room, not a suicide note.
00:03:38.660 Right.
00:03:38.780 And so, they think it might have been accidental, the gunshot wound that killed him.
00:03:44.280 They think while he was moving his weapons, something went off.
00:03:49.060 I mean, who knows?
00:03:50.020 Okay.
00:03:50.700 Yeah, maybe angels pulled the trigger and put an end to this thing.
00:03:54.580 I don't know.
00:03:55.540 Then he would hope to believe that.
00:03:56.940 Yeah.
00:03:57.100 So, we may have, we, it could, it could possibly have been much, much worse than this.
00:04:06.200 And if he would have escaped, who knows what he would have done.
00:04:08.580 Interestingly, yesterday, they've, they're, they continue to talk to his girlfriend.
00:04:12.560 Um, and she seems like she wants to help.
00:04:18.060 She does.
00:04:18.820 She seems like she's telling the truth.
00:04:20.840 She seems like she really didn't have any idea.
00:04:24.000 And she kind of assumed because, uh, before the shooting, obviously, he sent her to the Philippines.
00:04:30.960 He said, I found some, some, uh, cheap tickets for you to go back home.
00:04:34.920 And then he wired her $127,000 and said, Hey, here's a house, buy a house for you and your family.
00:04:41.220 So, she thought he was breaking up with her, which he may have been, knowing that this
00:04:46.420 could happen.
00:04:47.520 Uh, she also said that he would lie in his bed, screaming and moaning, which leads you
00:04:54.320 to believe there's some issue there, something mental health or physical.
00:05:00.740 And he told, apparently it was reported that, uh, you know, they've talked to his, uh, and
00:05:05.300 in today's world, it's not a barber, it's a hairdresser.
00:05:07.600 So, they talked to his hairdresser, uh, and, uh, that barbers prefer hairdresser.
00:05:13.320 I, I get, they're calling it his hairdresser.
00:05:15.280 Okay.
00:05:15.900 All right.
00:05:16.140 They talked to his hairdresser.
00:05:17.600 I guess men don't have barbers anymore.
00:05:19.880 I don't know.
00:05:20.660 Okay.
00:05:21.280 I mean, I, and what did you go to a hairdresser?
00:05:24.260 Uh, no, I do not.
00:05:25.520 No, no, I do not.
00:05:26.400 Okay.
00:05:27.120 It did is what did her, the hairdresser said that the last time he was in, he said that,
00:05:31.980 uh, he was sending the girlfriend away, uh, you know, he found some tickets to the Philippines.
00:05:37.620 He was, then he was going to be alone for a while.
00:05:39.240 Huh?
00:05:40.520 I mean, I don't.
00:05:42.320 Meanwhile, in this, uh, discussion, you may have seen circulating, uh, the statistic that
00:05:46.860 gun violence has taken more lives since 1968 than all of America's wars combined.
00:05:54.320 More Americans have died from gunshots in the last 50 years than all American wars.
00:06:00.180 And they post the figures of the revolutionary war, war of 1812, Indian wars, Mexican war,
00:06:06.960 civil war, Spanish American world war, world wars one and two, Korea, Vietnam, desert shield,
00:06:13.480 desert storm, and the global war on terror.
00:06:16.060 All of those wars combined have taken 1.2 million American lives.
00:06:21.160 According to this statistic, firearms have taken one and a half million, 1.53 million
00:06:27.100 people.
00:06:28.740 Now, I noticed they don't, uh, I don't, I'm getting a little aside, but I noticed they
00:06:33.800 don't mention, uh, Operation Urgent Fury, uh, the, uh, the Island of Spice, the invasion
00:06:39.960 of Island of Spice that, uh, claimed to have taken part in, you know, some of us were, you
00:06:43.420 know, leading the attack on.
00:06:45.520 They did not mention Grenada.
00:06:47.280 They did not.
00:06:48.420 Lost lives there too.
00:06:49.640 Right.
00:06:49.940 Some brave men.
00:06:50.940 I think 18, right?
00:06:52.740 Uh, I think 18.
00:06:53.780 You'd like to believe it was 18.
00:06:55.060 It was 19.
00:06:56.120 Okay.
00:06:56.580 Okay.
00:06:56.880 All right.
00:06:57.660 Uh, they, uh, they also did not mention the invasion of Panama to get, uh, right.
00:07:03.100 Manuel Noriega.
00:07:04.280 Yeah.
00:07:05.440 So those, those two wars.
00:07:08.820 Those numbers add up.
00:07:09.680 So 1.53 million deaths.
00:07:13.300 Now that, that includes suicides, accidents, everything in the last 50 years.
00:07:20.180 But what goes without notice here to the left is that, uh, so you've got 1.2 million service
00:07:28.960 people, troops killed in action in all American wars.
00:07:33.300 You have 1.53 million deaths by, by gun violence and you have 53 million babies murdered by abortions.
00:07:44.580 They don't seem to, I mean, as much as they care so deeply about human life, oh, it just,
00:07:52.620 it hurts them to think that anyone has died from, at the hand of a gun.
00:07:57.580 They don't care how many people have been killed by the hand of an abortion doctor.
00:08:04.340 They don't care.
00:08:06.120 How about 25 times the number of both gun related deaths and war, death and war combined.
00:08:15.780 25 times that number.
00:08:17.880 So don't come to me with your holier than thou, look at how no Republicans or the gun nuts
00:08:24.800 don't care about human life.
00:08:27.140 Nah, I'm not going to play that game with you.
00:08:29.140 The, the ones who don't care about a human life are the ones who just, who believe that
00:08:32.860 taking the life of a baby is a choice.
00:08:35.360 No, it's, it's deeper than that.
00:08:37.840 It's deeper than that.
00:08:38.900 Thank you.
00:08:40.720 Uh, and speaking of thanking people, have you seen the tonight show?
00:08:46.020 Thank you, Hillary, uh, video that they did the other night.
00:08:50.580 They had all the female writers for the tonight show, get together and, uh, thank Hillary for
00:08:57.000 whatever it was she's done.
00:08:59.100 And, uh, my, Miley Cyrus was apparently there.
00:09:02.020 Oh, good, good.
00:09:02.940 That's, that's good.
00:09:04.060 This is agonizing.
00:09:04.980 Listen to this for being the first.
00:09:06.440 Thank you, Hillary Clinton for being the first female presidential candidate nominated by
00:09:11.680 a major party.
00:09:12.440 And also the first female senator of New York.
00:09:15.660 Oh.
00:09:16.040 And also the first first lady to transcend first ladyhood to become secretary of state.
00:09:21.200 Wow.
00:09:21.520 I guess what I'm trying to say is thank you, Hillary Clinton, for being the Hillary Clinton
00:09:26.240 of American politics.
00:09:27.600 Thank you, Hillary Clinton, for handling this difficult transition with more grace than I
00:09:32.300 ever could have imagined.
00:09:33.580 Wow.
00:09:33.840 You can't imagine very much grace then.
00:09:35.560 If she handled this with more grace than you ever could have imagined, you've got a terrible
00:09:41.100 imagination.
00:09:42.200 I mean, you need to find a new gig.
00:09:44.620 Yeah.
00:09:44.920 Yeah.
00:09:45.180 You need to look at some fairy tales and develop that imagination a little bit.
00:09:49.600 She's handled this worse than anybody I've ever seen.
00:09:52.380 She's continually blaming something or everyone else but herself for the loss.
00:09:56.880 That being said, call me day or night and I will be there with a gallon of ice cream
00:10:01.480 and two spoons to tell you, girl, you are so much better than him.
00:10:04.840 Thank you, Hillary, for all the work you've done for public health care.
00:10:09.600 Oh.
00:10:10.520 Yeah.
00:10:10.720 Ever since the election, I've really depended on my government subsidized anti-anxiety medication.
00:10:16.140 Thank you, Hillary, for remaining strong and showing poise before, during, and especially
00:10:21.180 after the election.
00:10:22.740 Poise.
00:10:22.960 You taught me that when dealing with a difficult defeat, it's okay to take time to reflect,
00:10:27.980 set your focus on a new path forward, and maybe find a cave in the woods to scream into.
00:10:32.620 I wouldn't mind if it was a cave in the woods that she was screaming into.
00:10:34.660 I would be happy with that.
00:10:35.480 In fact, I know of a couple.
00:10:36.740 She continues to scream into microphones with cameras all around her.
00:10:40.080 That's what bothers me.
00:10:41.160 Thank you, Hillary, for always sticking to the issues.
00:10:44.080 Even as people criticize you for superficial things like your hair, your wardrobe, and your
00:10:49.020 appearance.
00:10:49.460 You showed girls everywhere that politics isn't a popularity contest.
00:10:53.640 She also showed girls everywhere how good you can look in a Mao outfit.
00:10:57.580 Right?
00:10:57.980 Yeah?
00:10:58.420 I mean, that's invaluable.
00:11:00.660 Because if it were, you would have won by about three million votes.
00:11:03.700 Thank you, Hillary Clinton.
00:11:05.660 I was with her.
00:11:07.200 I'm still with her.
00:11:08.860 And right now, I literally am with her.
00:11:11.760 Thank you, Hillary Clinton, for being someone I continue to admire and look up to.
00:11:17.260 And for standing up to critics who said that a woman couldn't be president because they'd
00:11:22.060 be too emotional, impulsive, and unpredictable.
00:11:25.600 Now, who said that?
00:11:26.600 I never once heard that during the campaign.
00:11:28.240 No.
00:11:28.460 And by the way-
00:11:29.080 You ever heard that?
00:11:29.520 And by the way, she isn't president.
00:11:32.580 Yeah.
00:11:32.960 Thank you.
00:11:33.680 Yeah.
00:11:34.460 So glad we didn't end up with someone like that.
00:11:36.820 Thank you, Hillary, for being a constant beacon of strength, hope, and determination for
00:11:44.700 me and millions of us.
00:11:45.680 This is Miley Cyrus now, getting all emotional over Hillary.
00:11:48.300 Young women.
00:11:49.700 Embarrassing.
00:11:50.100 You've been a role model and an inspiration and a voice of reason in uncertain times.
00:11:55.460 What?
00:11:55.640 I could go on and on, but I'd like to get right to the point.
00:11:59.600 Can I give you a hug?
00:12:00.600 Thank you, Miley, the Tonight Show writers, and all of the women and young girls out there.
00:12:08.200 You are smart, strong, and deserving of every opportunity.
00:12:14.020 Together, we've made our voices heard, we've done great things, and we've come a long way.
00:12:20.300 But as Miley would say, we can't stop, and we won't stop.
00:12:26.580 Oh, wow.
00:12:28.440 Isn't that wonderful?
00:12:29.920 She is for agonizing.
00:12:32.080 Thank you, Hillary.
00:12:32.820 Did you believe that?
00:12:33.620 Thank you for being the worst candidate who's ever run for president.
00:12:37.280 Thank you.
00:12:37.940 And not being elected, even though everybody, everybody thought you were the absolute lock
00:12:46.160 of all locks.
00:12:46.980 You were in.
00:12:47.480 That was it.
00:12:47.900 Of all locks.
00:12:48.540 Even yourself.
00:12:49.920 So thank you, Hillary.
00:12:51.500 Even yourself.
00:12:52.300 And those writers, no wonder the Tonight Show is not funny.
00:12:55.780 That's for sure.
00:12:57.560 That's just sad and pathetic.
00:12:59.920 Uh, 888-727-BECK.
00:13:02.840 It's Pat Gray and Jeffy for Glenn on the Glenn Beck program.
00:13:08.280 Glenn Beck.
00:13:14.220 Glenn Beck.
00:13:15.420 888-727-PACKETS.
00:13:21.300 Pat Gray and Jeffy for Glenn.
00:13:23.600 He's back on Monday.
00:13:25.500 Jeffy found a chilling story.
00:13:27.880 We're in trouble.
00:13:28.920 Yeah.
00:13:29.400 We're in trouble.
00:13:30.380 And nobody, nobody apparently knows it.
00:13:32.560 Right?
00:13:33.200 I'm surprised.
00:13:34.240 I know that, you know, we had the horrific shooting in Las Vegas.
00:13:38.040 Uh, but it's time now that, uh, we need to start thinking about this.
00:13:42.480 Uh, police in central Wyoming say a man they arrested and they arrested him for public
00:13:47.760 intoxication.
00:13:49.000 Okay.
00:13:49.560 Whatever.
00:13:50.020 But he claimed that he traveled back in time, uh, to warn of an alien invasion.
00:13:54.600 Wow.
00:13:55.180 So yeah.
00:13:55.860 He traveled back in time.
00:13:57.220 Yeah.
00:13:57.340 He claimed he was from the year 2048 and that, uh, he was sent back to a warned people
00:14:03.320 of Casper, Wyoming, that aliens will arrive next year and they should leave as soon as
00:14:09.220 possible.
00:14:09.600 Well, if you're, if you're an alien and you've traveled here from a hundred trillion miles
00:14:14.120 away, the first place you'd go is Casper, Wyoming, I think.
00:14:18.080 Right?
00:14:18.420 That's, that'd be your main target.
00:14:20.980 You got to start somewhere.
00:14:21.860 You take over Casper, Wyoming, and then you work your way out from there.
00:14:25.340 However, maybe it's not next year.
00:14:26.560 Maybe it's the following year because he claimed here that he was supposed to be transported
00:14:30.420 to the year 2018.
00:14:32.580 Oh, wow.
00:14:33.280 Not 2017.
00:14:33.960 Not 2017.
00:14:34.460 So, right.
00:14:35.700 Yeah.
00:14:35.940 You know, it's amazing how they time travel too.
00:14:37.960 And I wasn't aware of this, but according to him, they fill the aliens, fill your body
00:14:42.800 with alcohol.
00:14:43.780 And that sends you back.
00:14:44.740 Then you're able to be transported.
00:14:46.420 Well, if that's the case, my dad should have been transported to about 1506.
00:14:53.480 He's still dry.
00:14:54.360 A long time ago.
00:14:55.600 Yeah.
00:14:56.200 Yeah.
00:14:56.560 So, so you got a couple of years, but he wants everybody to get out of Casper.
00:15:01.420 Be careful in Casper.
00:15:02.900 Okay.
00:15:03.340 Cause it's coming.
00:15:04.040 But again, you've got until 2019, not 2018 to, to get out.
00:15:08.640 Yeah.
00:15:08.860 Cause right.
00:15:09.920 All right.
00:15:10.660 Triple eight, seven, two, seven back Jeff in Florida.
00:15:13.720 Hi, you're on the Glenn Beck program.
00:15:16.200 Hey, good morning.
00:15:17.160 Thanks for taking my call.
00:15:18.200 Uh, what I wanted to bring up was, uh, talk about there being possibly a second shooter
00:15:24.880 in the hotel.
00:15:26.040 Okay.
00:15:26.600 Can you pick up, can you pick up the phone?
00:15:30.040 Granted, there were two windows broken out.
00:15:33.260 So could there have been?
00:15:34.380 Yes.
00:15:34.800 Yes.
00:15:34.840 But my point is that I'd have a little bit of a firearm background and the man could have
00:15:41.260 very easily done this by himself with no problems.
00:15:44.360 The 10 suitcases that came up, the bellman probably had them on his car and took them
00:15:50.660 up to the man's room, uh, you know, and put them in there and had no idea.
00:15:56.540 I've heard talk about whether it was a fourth floor.
00:15:59.700 All you have to do is look at how many windows you're not shooting out of that hotel unless
00:16:04.200 the windows broke out.
00:16:05.580 Yeah.
00:16:05.960 Now they're also talking about the bump stock.
00:16:08.960 I've never heard of this until this shooting happened.
00:16:11.460 However, there is something called a hellfire trigger mechanism, which does pretty much
00:16:16.420 the same thing.
00:16:18.200 Um, you know, so, uh, what I'm more curious about is I saw some photos from Alex Jones yesterday
00:16:24.720 and it showed a photograph of a note with a pin by it at the feet of Steven Paddock.
00:16:31.560 I'm more curious to know what was on the note and why they haven't said anything about it.
00:16:36.140 Uh, they have, they've said, they've said things about it.
00:16:38.680 They said it wasn't a suicide note.
00:16:40.160 It was apparently nothing.
00:16:42.140 Um, and you want to be careful getting information from that source because a lot of it is just
00:16:47.760 nonsense.
00:16:49.360 Thanks for the call, Jeff.
00:16:50.580 Uh, let's go to Eric in Georgia.
00:16:52.460 Hi, you're on, uh, the Glenn Beck program with Pat Gray and Jeffy.
00:16:56.740 Hey guys, how's everybody doing out there in America?
00:17:00.440 Um, I don't know about everybody, but we're fine.
00:17:03.240 I can't account for the other 320 million.
00:17:06.100 All right.
00:17:07.480 Well, I'm just checking with them.
00:17:08.800 All right.
00:17:09.040 Anyway, I've had so many great things to call in about and I just had this stupid one and
00:17:15.020 I finally get through and it's, well, maybe it's not so stupid because you know, you guys
00:17:20.480 could be in a little bit of trouble.
00:17:21.820 Your music, your sad music in the background is eerily similar to the tonight show music in
00:17:29.660 the background and I wonder if they're, the music that they used was theirs.
00:17:33.580 We didn't, we didn't supply that.
00:17:35.760 You don't notice the difference, the similarities, the similarities between the music in the background
00:17:41.940 of the thank Hillary thing.
00:17:44.180 Yeah.
00:17:45.140 Versus your sad music when you do your bad bits.
00:17:50.800 I, you know, I'm not, let's see.
00:17:53.800 Thank you, Hillary.
00:17:55.100 Thank you.
00:17:55.820 It's a little bit different.
00:17:56.940 I think, okay, so, so, so Eric, that's, that's the sad music I use.
00:18:02.940 Okay.
00:18:03.480 And here's the Hillary bit for being the first.
00:18:06.040 Thank you, Hillary Clinton for being the first female president.
00:18:10.040 A little bit different, but very similar.
00:18:11.480 It is similar.
00:18:12.000 That's a pretty good ear.
00:18:12.900 You've got there.
00:18:13.800 It's similar.
00:18:14.700 Yeah.
00:18:14.880 A little bit of music.
00:18:17.460 All the stupid things I hear and want to say to you guys, and I get through on this
00:18:21.860 one and I just missed it.
00:18:24.240 All right.
00:18:24.960 That's good call.
00:18:26.360 I love you guys.
00:18:26.860 Good call.
00:18:27.620 Thanks, Eric.
00:18:28.280 I mean, she deserves that sad music.
00:18:29.940 That's for sure.
00:18:30.620 It was worth looking into, though, because it is close.
00:18:33.660 It's close.
00:18:34.880 It's trying to save us a lawsuit there.
00:18:36.620 Right.
00:18:36.980 And plus, I mean, we want to be able to thank Hillary to the right tune.
00:18:40.360 Exactly.
00:18:40.860 We don't want to.
00:18:41.540 Yeah.
00:18:41.840 I mean, you can't just throw any sad music out there.
00:18:44.460 You can't just throw this out.
00:18:46.140 Thank you, Hillary.
00:18:49.260 Thanks, Hillary.
00:18:49.820 For being the worst candidate that's ever ashamed the Democrat Party, allowing a talk
00:18:59.300 show game show host to win the election.
00:19:01.620 Thank you, Hillary.
00:19:03.840 Yeah.
00:19:08.100 Triple eight.
00:19:09.540 727-PAC.
00:19:11.620 Pat Gray for Glenn on the Glenn Beck Program.
00:19:22.820 Glenn Beck.
00:19:23.900 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:19:31.500 With Pat Gray today, you can check out my new show, which is Pat Gray Unleashed,
00:19:36.560 immediately following this show on the Blaze Radio and Television Network.
00:19:40.640 Also have Twitter now, at Pat Unleashed, and of course, Facebook.
00:19:46.440 For some reason, I have competing Facebook places.
00:19:48.940 You find them. Look them up.
00:19:50.480 I don't really know how you find a Facebook page.
00:19:54.920 You can just go to Facebook and type in the name, right?
00:19:57.360 Correct.
00:19:57.560 And do the search.
00:19:58.480 So you'll see my original page and the Pat Gray Unleashed.
00:20:02.080 Correct.
00:20:02.980 So thumb up me on Facebook, too, if you would.
00:20:07.100 And Jeffy has.
00:20:08.120 Jeffy, do you have a Facebook?
00:20:09.680 Jeff Fisher Radio.
00:20:10.560 Yeah.
00:20:10.780 And Jeffy MRA on Twitter.
00:20:12.180 Yeah.
00:20:12.560 And Jeffy MRA Instagram.
00:20:14.300 Jeffy MRA Snapchat.
00:20:15.940 Good heavens.
00:20:16.440 I mean, what do you want from me, Pat?
00:20:18.080 Wow.
00:20:18.480 So do you, and you're pretty active on social media, right?
00:20:21.640 I have Facebook and Twitter.
00:20:22.860 I love Twitter.
00:20:23.440 Yeah.
00:20:24.900 Triple eight, seven, two, seven.
00:20:26.380 Snapchat is a little much.
00:20:27.900 Snapchat is?
00:20:28.520 It is a little much.
00:20:29.100 Isn't that the one that goes away in about six seconds?
00:20:30.960 Yeah.
00:20:31.180 Plus, they have the thing now where you, you know, you hold the picture up and they put
00:20:34.500 little crowns on your face and make you look like little doggies and stuff.
00:20:38.400 And it's cute.
00:20:38.920 And it's just, you know, my 10-year-old daughter loves it.
00:20:42.620 Yeah.
00:20:42.980 I'm not into that.
00:20:44.140 No?
00:20:44.380 Surprising.
00:20:44.680 You don't want to have a little crown on your face?
00:20:46.420 No.
00:20:46.660 Or make it look really fat because it already does, you know, so I don't need the spread
00:20:52.020 out across the street.
00:20:53.040 I thought that was a snap.
00:20:53.360 That's the one thing I do like about Snapchat.
00:20:55.020 I was like, no, that's not really me.
00:20:59.220 Triple eight, seven, two, seven.
00:21:01.000 Beck, interesting comment when the president posed for a photo op with some military leaders.
00:21:06.920 And he's just making small talk with the reporters who were gathered there.
00:21:12.700 And this is what happened.
00:21:15.720 Do you guys know what this represents?
00:21:18.220 Well, maybe it's the calm before the storm.
00:21:21.560 What's the storm?
00:21:22.440 Say, you know what this picture represents?
00:21:24.720 If you can understand it, it's like we're all here.
00:21:27.340 It's the calm before the storm.
00:21:29.500 The calm before the storm.
00:21:32.440 What's the storm, Mr. President?
00:21:37.860 We have the world's great military people here, Mr. President.
00:21:41.260 We're going to do that.
00:21:42.760 And we're going to be ready.
00:21:44.960 Thank you all for coming.
00:21:46.500 Thank you.
00:21:47.340 So, naturally, that piqued the reporter's interest.
00:21:50.680 And so they asked him, what storm are you talking about, Mr. President?
00:21:54.660 ISIS?
00:21:55.720 North Korea?
00:21:57.020 Iran?
00:21:58.420 His response?
00:21:59.720 You'll find out.
00:22:02.440 This is one of the reasons he was elected, right?
00:22:06.160 He's not a politician.
00:22:07.540 He has no filter like that, like a politician would.
00:22:10.740 You don't, when you've had some experience in the government, you know better than to
00:22:14.840 telegraph military intervention, which may be coming.
00:22:19.980 You don't want to talk about the fact that we may be having a storm somewhere on the planet.
00:22:26.460 Really?
00:22:27.100 Yeah.
00:22:27.580 You probably don't.
00:22:28.420 As president, you don't want to joke about it.
00:22:30.020 And you don't want to talk about it.
00:22:31.720 You get the military leaders there and their wives, and you're getting ready to have a
00:22:34.780 little dinner, and you don't want to joke around about, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, you know.
00:22:39.520 We're just about to go to war with North Korea.
00:22:41.760 In fact, we're launching the attack next Thursday afternoon at 4 local time.
00:22:49.020 4 Washington, D.C. time.
00:22:50.940 I don't know what time that is in North Korea, but you guys can all do the math.
00:22:54.580 You'll find out later.
00:22:56.880 And so will they.
00:22:58.000 Hey, get out of here.
00:22:59.600 We're having dinner.
00:23:01.060 That's great.
00:23:03.280 But again, everybody was excited about Donald Trump because he didn't have the same hangups
00:23:11.720 that other politicians do.
00:23:13.200 He wasn't as tightly constricted and restrained as other politicians were.
00:23:19.940 He could say what he wanted to.
00:23:21.740 He could tell people off when he wanted to.
00:23:24.140 And he didn't apologize for it.
00:23:26.300 So this is what we're getting now in the presidency.
00:23:29.100 Yep.
00:23:29.720 Uh, 888-727-BECK.
00:23:31.660 Carl in Oklahoma.
00:23:32.780 Hi, you're on the Glenn Beck Show.
00:23:34.600 Hey, good morning, guys.
00:23:35.680 Hey.
00:23:36.200 Hey.
00:23:37.320 You know, the Hillary thing, the Miley Cyrus thing, I'd make a great Saturday night lives.
00:23:42.100 Can you know that?
00:23:42.900 Yes, it would.
00:23:43.700 I'm hoping that, of course, you know, these are people that are all sacred to them.
00:23:48.220 So I'm sure we'll never see that.
00:23:51.120 No, the reason I called is nobody's talking about the girlfriend and her little travels
00:23:56.260 to Hong Kong and Japan.
00:23:58.940 I just think it's kind of weird.
00:24:00.900 That she traveled to Hong Kong and Japan?
00:24:03.920 Yeah.
00:24:04.460 The news, it's been all over the news, is she bought a ticket.
00:24:09.960 She went to Japan and Hong Kong before she went to the Philippines.
00:24:13.460 Hmm.
00:24:13.800 Now, why is that?
00:24:14.820 You guys get on that?
00:24:15.820 Maybe she knows people there.
00:24:17.620 Yeah.
00:24:18.020 What do you find troubling about that?
00:24:20.980 Oh, I don't know.
00:24:21.880 It's just, you know, you'd think FBI would be all over trying to figure out why she's traveling.
00:24:26.740 Yeah.
00:24:26.980 Well, I mean, I'm sure they're asking because they have been interviewing her for the last
00:24:30.980 couple of days.
00:24:32.100 But we'll keep an eye on that.
00:24:33.420 Appreciate it.
00:24:33.960 Thanks, Carl.
00:24:34.700 Wallace in Virginia.
00:24:36.240 Hi.
00:24:37.500 Hi.
00:24:37.800 Hello.
00:24:38.340 Hey.
00:24:38.780 Yes.
00:24:38.960 What I haven't heard is that people don't realize is that the AR-15s in use, that bullet
00:24:47.840 is supersonic.
00:24:49.040 It's faster than the speed of sound.
00:24:51.240 Therefore, when the shots were fired, the bullet is in the crowd before the actual sound of
00:24:58.480 the blast from the wind that can be heard.
00:25:00.380 So therefore, it's giving you, it sounds something like a .22 when it goes by you.
00:25:08.120 It's like a sonic boom.
00:25:09.900 And therefore, people in the crowd are thinking there's another shooter because they're hearing
00:25:13.740 these shots sound like they're being fired in the crowd, which is the sonic boom from
00:25:18.640 the bullet.
00:25:19.260 And then they hear the blast from the 32nd floor.
00:25:24.480 So the reverb effects.
00:25:27.140 Echo.
00:25:27.600 Yeah.
00:25:28.400 That's why people are coming with this conspiracy.
00:25:32.260 There's more than one shooter.
00:25:33.660 Yeah.
00:25:34.340 Thanks.
00:25:34.980 Thanks, Wallace.
00:25:35.600 Appreciate that.
00:25:36.340 Cliff in North Carolina.
00:25:38.200 Hi.
00:25:38.640 Hey.
00:25:38.920 How are you doing?
00:25:39.580 Doing well.
00:25:41.220 I've got a question about the shooter's girlfriend as well.
00:25:45.040 She was talking through a lawyer.
00:25:46.960 I don't know anybody that has a lawyer.
00:25:49.420 Why in the world does she have a lawyer and what kind of lawyer is he?
00:25:54.320 If he's a criminal lawyer, I'd be really suspicious about her.
00:25:57.340 I know.
00:25:57.700 I know people with lawyers.
00:25:58.940 Yeah.
00:25:59.220 Glenn Beck has a lawyer.
00:26:00.800 And if you are.
00:26:01.800 Wealthy people seem to have lawyers.
00:26:03.240 And if you're being called in to talk to the FBI over something like this, you're going
00:26:09.040 to have an attorney.
00:26:09.820 Yeah.
00:26:10.020 Because, you know, she's under suspicion.
00:26:12.060 So you definitely want to have somebody with you who is on your side.
00:26:16.180 Yeah.
00:26:16.780 Thanks, Cliff.
00:26:17.420 I mean, that's a, a lot of people, I think, used to feel that way.
00:26:21.880 But, and obviously, you know, some people still do.
00:26:25.200 But, man, in times like that, you have to have somebody that's on your side.
00:26:28.820 I mean, if there's anybody who knows about needing a lawyer, it's Jeffy.
00:26:31.880 And in times like that, when you're being questioned by the FBI, Pat, trust me when
00:26:36.780 I tell you, you want someone on your side.
00:26:39.540 That's for sure.
00:26:40.540 That is for sure.
00:26:41.640 Dave in Pennsylvania.
00:26:43.240 Hi.
00:26:43.520 You're on the Glenn Beck Show.
00:26:45.300 Hey, guys.
00:26:45.840 I was just, just completely under, you know, with the whole bump fire banning.
00:26:52.960 It's just crazy because if they start banning that, they need to ban belt loops and thumbs
00:26:57.540 because that's the original bump fire method that we used to use.
00:27:02.020 And it's just crazy.
00:27:03.580 I mean, are they going to start, you know, regulating that?
00:27:05.780 Well, I was, that's why I was surprised that the NRA is seemingly backing the effort.
00:27:12.960 And it shoots just as many rounds as the bump fire and then the stock does.
00:27:19.020 If you use a belt?
00:27:20.740 You use your belt loop and your thumb and you just shoot from the hip.
00:27:24.360 I mean, it's crazy because it's the same, same, same effect.
00:27:29.280 So you could shoot off a hundred rounds in a minute or whatever with using that technique.
00:27:34.460 Yep.
00:27:34.980 And it would only take you maybe about 10 minutes to learn how to do it.
00:27:39.300 Wow.
00:27:40.700 Appreciate it.
00:27:41.280 Thanks, Dave.
00:27:41.660 And again, that's why, I mean, the NRA doesn't usually succumb to this kind of stuff, but
00:27:46.400 maybe the pressure is so bad here.
00:27:49.400 I'm not really sure, but because they've already banned, essentially banned automatic weapons.
00:27:56.340 So I think the NRA is, maybe their theory is, well, automatic weapons are banned.
00:28:03.900 We lost that fight.
00:28:06.040 This turns semi-automatic into automatic fire.
00:28:09.940 Maybe we allow that.
00:28:11.080 Tie that in and go with it.
00:28:12.240 Yeah.
00:28:12.700 I mean, it makes sense.
00:28:14.500 And it does because they're getting, you know, they're being so demonized right now that
00:28:19.320 they don't need any more of it.
00:28:21.280 Right.
00:28:22.300 It's just, it's outrageous what's being said about the NRA.
00:28:25.540 In fact, Nancy Sinatra.
00:28:29.360 The Nancy Sinatra?
00:28:30.720 The Nancy, these boots are made for walking, Nancy Sinatra.
00:28:34.280 Daughter of the iconic Frank.
00:28:36.360 Who had a hit record in 1966, and we haven't seen her since.
00:28:41.240 I didn't even know she was still alive, but apparently she is because she just wished death
00:28:46.640 on every NRA member.
00:28:48.200 Oh, good.
00:28:48.920 What other 50 million members of the NRA?
00:28:50.960 Good for her.
00:28:51.600 Yeah, good.
00:28:52.360 Good for her.
00:28:52.900 She said they should all be rounded up and executed by firing squad.
00:28:59.240 Wait, wait.
00:29:00.960 Don't they use guns for firing?
00:29:04.080 Seems like it, yeah.
00:29:05.280 Yeah.
00:29:05.580 Okay.
00:29:05.920 But if it's against the NRA, it's understandable.
00:29:09.580 Right?
00:29:10.080 Okay.
00:29:10.660 Bob in Pennsylvania, you're on the Glenn Beck program.
00:29:14.680 Hi, Pat.
00:29:15.600 How are you?
00:29:16.220 Doing well.
00:29:16.660 A subject that I haven't heard anybody talk about, not on my local radio show, or you
00:29:24.660 guys, or Hannity, or anybody.
00:29:27.600 Every time anyone purchases a firearm from an FFL, Federal Firearms Licensed Individual,
00:29:36.140 there's paperwork filled out.
00:29:38.480 On that paperwork is all your personal information, the purchaser of the firearm, when, who, what,
00:29:44.300 where, when, and how, the background checked, and you're saying you're not a mental detective,
00:29:49.600 you're not a felon, you're not this, you're not that.
00:29:52.240 Yeah.
00:29:52.560 We have talked about that, actually.
00:29:54.580 Yeah.
00:29:55.060 All the information.
00:29:56.100 And the FFLs are required to keep that paperwork as long as they're a business.
00:30:00.280 And if they go out of business, or retire, or sell their firearms business, that person
00:30:09.660 still has to maintain those files for years after, and I'm holding in my hand an application,
00:30:17.220 record of sale, Pennsylvania State Police, for a handgun I purchased, at a gun sale, at
00:30:22.660 a gun show, which is where there's supposed to be a loophole.
00:30:25.980 There is no loophole, unless you're an individual.
00:30:29.180 Yes.
00:30:29.760 Sell your own firearm.
00:30:31.160 Like, if I sell a weapon to Jeffy, obviously he's not going through a background check.
00:30:35.900 Which is the only way I could purchase.
00:30:38.400 Which he wouldn't pass, so.
00:30:40.240 Right, it's the only way I could purchase.
00:30:42.920 But we have talked about that, absolutely.
00:30:44.740 Yeah, we have.
00:30:45.440 And so, yeah, there is a paper trail.
00:30:47.860 There are background checks.
00:30:49.580 These things do happen.
00:30:51.640 All the nonsense that was spewed by Nancy Pelosi and others, Hillary Clinton, and everybody's
00:30:58.200 alleging, they're making it sound like there are no background checks.
00:31:01.200 Right.
00:31:01.400 In probably 99% of gun purchases, there is a background check.
00:31:07.540 I mean, I realize that some people can't listen all the time, Bob, but other than that, I
00:31:12.780 mean, what's your excuse?
00:31:13.680 You should have known.
00:31:14.360 We've talked about that.
00:31:15.800 You should be listening all the time.
00:31:17.460 Every minute of every show, clearly.
00:31:20.720 Let's go to Terry at Ohio.
00:31:22.400 Hi, you're on the Glenn Beck program.
00:31:25.360 Hey, guys.
00:31:26.080 Hey.
00:31:26.240 How are you doing?
00:31:27.040 Yeah.
00:31:27.860 How are you doing?
00:31:28.520 See, I'll tell you why the NRA said what they said.
00:31:32.660 Okay.
00:31:33.020 If you remember correctly, they said, we need to look into, have it looked into as to why
00:31:38.820 these are here.
00:31:39.480 Well, I'll tell you why.
00:31:40.800 All these devices are BATFD approved.
00:31:46.900 They've been scrutinized by the government already and said, these are not a machine gun.
00:31:51.860 You still have to pull the trigger, and one round goes off.
00:31:55.820 How you're making your finger pull the trigger is irrelevant, and that's why they said what
00:32:01.740 they said, because it's going to fall back on BATFD.
00:32:04.420 It's like, why did you approve this?
00:32:06.620 Yeah, and it was approved under Barack Obama.
00:32:10.680 Oh, no.
00:32:11.420 These things go clear back 30, 40 years ago.
00:32:15.040 This guy had a little crank handle.
00:32:16.720 Several stories about the bump fire thing being approved under Obama, though.
00:32:23.200 Or at least the continuation of the approval.
00:32:25.160 At least the yes.
00:32:26.500 Yes.
00:32:26.880 Some kind of approval happened under Obama, and so maybe that's what they're hoping people
00:32:32.780 will discover.
00:32:33.820 Not sure.
00:32:34.440 888-727-BECK.
00:32:40.000 Glenn, back.
00:32:41.160 Glenn, back.
00:32:48.960 Pat Gray for Glenn on the Glenn Beck program.
00:32:50.880 Jeffy's here as well.
00:32:52.560 888-727-BECK.
00:32:55.820 Continue to try to digest what happened Sunday night in Las Vegas, and the resulting fallout,
00:33:02.320 because, as we all knew, we'd be knee-deep in gun control talk all week, because they never
00:33:11.560 waste an opportunity to take advantage of a tragedy.
00:33:15.160 No, they do not.
00:33:16.380 And that's what they're trying to do again, trying desperately to get gun control jammed
00:33:22.580 through, and trying to essentially negate or repeal the Second Amendment.
00:33:28.620 Mike at Georgia, you're on the Glenn Beck program.
00:33:30.300 It cracks me up.
00:33:34.020 Yeah, they crack me up with that, because they're trying to get every weapon that they
00:33:39.840 can, they'll gather up, but they won't take one illegal criminal and send him back home.
00:33:44.940 Now, what makes them think they can get all the weapons, but they can't find one illegal
00:33:48.940 criminal in this country?
00:33:52.580 Yeah, I mean, rule of law is critical.
00:33:56.500 And whether you're talking about the rule of law from the Second Amendment or the rule
00:34:00.680 of law of immigration statutes, it's critical to follow that and to be a nation of laws instead
00:34:08.720 of a nation of men and their whims.
00:34:11.200 Thanks for the call, Mike.
00:34:12.100 Chad in Washington, you're on the blaze.
00:34:14.440 Or you're not, I guess not on the blaze.
00:34:16.480 Well, on the blaze and on the Glenn Beck program.
00:34:20.060 Go ahead.
00:34:20.380 Hello, thanks for taking my call.
00:34:22.700 I wanted to talk about the narrative that's going on in the media about the AR-15 family
00:34:27.200 of guns and other modern military rifles, about them being designed to kill as many people
00:34:33.060 as possible, as quickly as possible.
00:34:35.440 Just after World War II, the world government's military started switching from the .30 caliber,
00:34:40.360 you know, like the M1 Grand and the 7mm sizes of bullets, to the .22 calibers, .223 and
00:34:45.520 .556mm sizes of bullets for many reasons, but one of them was to wound the target rather
00:34:50.980 than kill them, so that the comrades would have to take them off the field of combat,
00:34:57.100 and you'd have to take care of them rather than just being dead.
00:35:01.260 And other reasons, you know, reducing weight, making them more reliable because they're not
00:35:05.160 handling as high pressures and all that, but it's just kind of interesting to me to hear that.
00:35:11.260 Yeah, you don't want to take that talking point from them, Chad, that the only function
00:35:17.520 of an AR-15 is to kill!
00:35:21.020 They think they're really onto something there.
00:35:23.160 Don't take it from them.
00:35:24.680 Glenn Beck.
00:35:31.720 Love.
00:35:33.280 Courage.
00:35:34.720 Truth.
00:35:35.980 Glenn Beck.
00:35:36.700 Pat Gray and Jeffy for Glenn, who returns on Monday from his vacation, 888-727-BECK.
00:35:42.900 Of course, trying to make some sense out of what happened in Las Vegas, we just, we may
00:35:48.240 never find out his motivation.
00:35:50.040 It's just as simple as that.
00:35:51.140 There's some reporters saying that authorities know a lot more than they're saying, but, you
00:35:56.340 know, we may not have all the answers ever.
00:35:58.440 Right, and some of the answers we'll get down the road, you know, and the authorities are
00:36:02.620 busy, you know, going through, weeding through his, you know, every ounce of his life from
00:36:08.560 Sunday to, you know, probably until he was born, since he was born, we'll know everything
00:36:14.860 about him.
00:36:15.500 There have been stories that said he's been planning this for decades.
00:36:18.120 Right.
00:36:18.280 I don't know that that's true.
00:36:19.760 I mean, it's hard to, it's hard to say, because supposedly the girlfriend didn't even
00:36:24.360 know, she didn't say, he didn't say anything to her about this.
00:36:28.580 About hurting anybody, killing anybody, doing anything like this.
00:36:32.380 And then, you know, the brothers are saying that he never was a big hunter.
00:36:36.180 Right, not a gun guy.
00:36:37.340 But he's got an arsenal.
00:36:38.560 Yeah, but now you have up to 97 weapons I've been hearing.
00:36:42.240 I mean, while, yes, this is the United States and you can have all the weapons you want,
00:36:46.620 normally if you have, I don't know, more than a dozen weapons, people know about it.
00:36:52.960 Yeah.
00:36:53.560 You know what I mean?
00:36:54.640 And there are weapons collectors.
00:36:55.980 People like to take guns out and shoot various kinds.
00:36:59.920 And it would be fun to have a machine gun.
00:37:02.240 It would.
00:37:03.400 They're really tough to get.
00:37:05.120 They're really expensive.
00:37:06.480 You have to register them.
00:37:08.660 It's really difficult to move them state to state, as Glenn has attested to.
00:37:15.080 But they made it in 1934.
00:37:17.760 They put so many taxes on it that it just made a cost prohibitive for most people.
00:37:21.160 And then in 1986, they flat out banned any automatic weapons from that point on.
00:37:27.820 Right.
00:37:28.240 Now, you can buy an older one, an automatic weapon that was manufactured prior to 1986.
00:37:35.960 You can still purchase.
00:37:37.160 But then it has to be registered.
00:37:39.220 You have to have a license.
00:37:40.220 So, it's a process.
00:37:43.060 Essentially, they've been banned.
00:37:45.100 What they were talking about this morning, one of the reports, was that we actually may never know the real why.
00:37:53.060 Yeah.
00:37:53.340 And that's a shame.
00:37:54.820 It is.
00:37:55.280 Because, I mean, that's the ultimate answer that we're all waiting for, right?
00:37:58.360 We want the FBI, we want the Sheriff's Department, we want the family to get all the questions asked and all the answers and all the boxes checked off so we can say, this is why this animal monster did what he did.
00:38:13.480 Yeah.
00:38:14.060 And we may never know that.
00:38:15.480 And in the meantime, of course, the left are screaming about gun control and how to stop this.
00:38:23.960 I don't know if there's a way to completely safety wrap our society.
00:38:30.560 You can't do it.
00:38:31.340 No.
00:38:32.100 It's not possible.
00:38:32.700 You can do what you can, of course.
00:38:33.920 And nobody's saying we're just going to give up on it.
00:38:36.940 But we're not taking any look at the people involved.
00:38:43.220 Right.
00:38:43.500 What happened to them?
00:38:45.840 How did they go haywire?
00:38:47.200 Is there something we could have done to prevent it?
00:38:50.200 Is there an institution some of these people need to be in?
00:38:54.080 I don't know.
00:38:54.860 I mean, the 50 million NRA members that Nancy Sinatra wants to line up and put in front of a firing squad, if they were the problem, I think Nancy would really know it.
00:39:04.420 Yeah, she would.
00:39:04.920 I think she would already know it.
00:39:06.220 Yeah.
00:39:07.460 888-727-BECK.
00:39:08.860 Also, speaking of Nancy's, Nancy Pelosi, something is wrong there.
00:39:14.980 Seriously.
00:39:15.700 We've mentioned that a few times.
00:39:17.120 Yes.
00:39:17.220 But people are compiling some of her recent discussions with either reporters or interviewers or some statements she's made.
00:39:31.020 And we've played them as they have happened.
00:39:34.140 But put together?
00:39:35.140 You start to wonder.
00:39:36.260 Is there, I mean, there's something wrong there.
00:39:38.780 And some people are speculating it might be an alcohol problem.
00:39:42.940 I don't know.
00:39:43.440 It might be a medication problem of some sort.
00:39:45.620 Definitely could be.
00:39:46.040 But there's something going on here.
00:39:47.620 Listen to this.
00:39:48.140 Bigotry and discrimination and anti-Semitism and xenophobia.
00:39:53.740 Earlier, our goals.
00:39:54.500 Xernophobia?
00:39:57.900 Xernophobia.
00:39:58.340 Xernophobia have been to increase, improve, lower cost, improve benefits, and expand.
00:40:06.940 Haven't seen a budget.
00:40:08.040 We've seen, what do they call it?
00:40:09.560 An outline, blueprint, Minnie Mouse budget.
00:40:14.600 I don't know.
00:40:15.520 Wow.
00:40:16.100 Happy St. Patrick's Day.
00:40:18.180 Perhaps as we have St. Patrick's Day lunch, we can have a moment of, what?
00:40:25.980 A moment of comity.
00:40:29.740 This is a historic opportunity for us.
00:40:32.780 An opportunity of a generation.
00:40:34.780 And we are not going to let it pass.
00:40:38.000 Affordable Care Act will stand there with Social Security, with Medicare and Medicare.
00:40:42.780 And by the way, when I said...
00:40:44.460 With Medicare and Medicare.
00:40:45.980 Wow.
00:40:47.340 Stand there with some good things.
00:40:49.000 We could not have done it without Families USA and without you.
00:40:51.820 That is an applause line.
00:40:54.300 For you.
00:40:55.980 Thanks to you.
00:40:57.440 I look forward to continuing our work with Families USA under your leadership.
00:41:01.820 Thank you and congratulate.
00:41:03.300 Applause line.
00:41:04.560 Thank you and congratulate.
00:41:06.720 Applause line.
00:41:08.080 Wow.
00:41:09.600 Pandemic and addiction and the rest.
00:41:11.980 Medicaid is there.
00:41:13.160 In fact, don't take it from me.
00:41:14.920 John Kasich, the governor of Illinois, said...
00:41:17.680 Ohio.
00:41:18.560 Thank God for Medicaid.
00:41:20.600 Martin Luther Singh said, of all the inequality you've seen...
00:41:24.340 Martin Luther Singh said, of all the inequality you've seen...
00:41:29.900 Man.
00:41:31.740 And then just last week, she was trying to congratulate Lin-Manuel Miranda.
00:41:38.120 Listen to this.
00:41:38.820 Lin-Manuel Miranda.
00:41:42.280 Lin-Manuel Miranda is the great creative talent.
00:41:45.860 Lin-Manuel Miranda took the story of our founding and imbued it with a fresh life and infectious spirit.
00:41:52.660 Lin-Manuel is continuing.
00:41:54.300 Lin-Manuel, I am truly, truly convinced.
00:41:57.180 We celebrate Lin-Manuel Miranda, a man gifted by the muse of history.
00:42:02.960 Thank you, Lin-Manuel.
00:42:04.480 Thank you, Lin-Manuel Miranda.
00:42:06.740 Lin-Manuel Miranda.
00:42:08.780 I mean...
00:42:15.020 Something is going on there.
00:42:16.660 Well, you hear them separate.
00:42:17.880 I mean, sometimes you have a bad day speaking.
00:42:21.140 Sure.
00:42:21.160 And you hear them separate.
00:42:21.900 And originally, I thought, you know, some have said that, you know, I know that it's an alcohol or a drug problem.
00:42:26.440 And some have reported that it could be a denture issue.
00:42:30.060 Some have reported.
00:42:31.140 You've reported it could be a denture issue?
00:42:33.720 That's possible.
00:42:34.760 But when you put them together, it doesn't sound like a denture issue.
00:42:37.860 No, it doesn't.
00:42:39.020 It does not sound like a denture issue.
00:42:40.460 It really doesn't.
00:42:41.880 888-727-BECK.
00:42:43.600 Let's go to Stephen in Texas.
00:42:45.480 Hey, Stephen.
00:42:46.640 Hey, how's it going, guys?
00:42:47.920 Good.
00:42:48.380 I just wanted to go over a few questions that were raised yesterday on your show.
00:42:53.740 The first being the glass as to why people on the strip below didn't announce, hey, it's raining glass down here.
00:43:00.980 The police noted that he had a tactical hammer, which means he would have punched a hole into the window, a single hole, and then more than likely pulled the glass into the room, not pushed it out.
00:43:14.560 That makes sense.
00:43:15.660 Yeah, that would explain that.
00:43:17.020 That's just a theory.
00:43:18.320 But the second one is the other concerts that he had booked hotels and why he didn't follow through.
00:43:24.960 And I think it's because no matter how crazy someone is, there's still usually someone that they love.
00:43:31.560 And Mary Lou was still in the country for both of those other events.
00:43:35.600 He wasn't able to get her to the Philippines until the final one where he actually pulled off his caper.
00:43:42.960 So really, I think that was the reason.
00:43:44.940 Her sister or brother in one of the interviews said had she been there, she would have stopped him.
00:43:50.620 So I think he just, he was trying to protect her.
00:43:54.880 That could well be.
00:43:56.460 Absolutely.
00:43:57.180 That makes sense.
00:43:58.480 He wasn't able to get his cheap ticket to Philippines.
00:44:01.680 And then once he was able to get it and she was out of the way, he felt a little more secure in pulling off what he did pull off.
00:44:08.920 Yeah.
00:44:09.300 Interesting.
00:44:09.980 Can you imagine?
00:44:10.660 Oh, geez.
00:44:10.940 We would have a totally different conversation if he had shot up an all-black concert.
00:44:17.120 Oh, yeah.
00:44:17.740 If he had pulled off that rap concert, I mean, this would be a whole other conversation.
00:44:22.080 Yeah, it would.
00:44:23.080 I mean, just thank God that he was a white guy that killed a bunch of white people because it would have been a whole other topic if he had pulled off the rap concert.
00:44:32.320 Sadly, that's true.
00:44:32.900 Well, it is true.
00:44:34.280 It is true.
00:44:34.920 Thanks, Stephen.
00:44:36.320 And white people don't matter, right?
00:44:38.640 To the left.
00:44:39.840 It's a good thing to them.
00:44:41.300 And, in fact, if you go back and look at Twitter the night of and the next day about white people dying, it's despicable what people were saying, that they deserved it, that good, you know, he didn't go far enough.
00:44:55.820 I mean, it was all kinds of hatred on Twitter over that.
00:45:00.520 Clay in North Carolina.
00:45:01.880 Hi.
00:45:02.120 Yes, sir.
00:45:03.860 I got a couple different things, especially here in your conversations going on.
00:45:07.140 One thing is, have they asked any questions about where that $127,000 came from?
00:45:12.920 And if she sent it over, another thing I was thinking, if she's bouncing around in all those different countries, isn't Southeast Asia right now at ISIS top point?
00:45:20.880 I know a lot of people have said that the radicalized Islam might not necessarily be involved in this.
00:45:25.880 But that's kind of something to think about, too, if the Philippines had such a heavy presence there.
00:45:30.280 I mean, it could be your next-door neighbor.
00:45:32.200 It's not always somebody that actively flags a fly.
00:45:35.320 Yeah, but she's got family there.
00:45:37.040 Yeah, she's from Philadelphia.
00:45:37.920 And so it kind of makes sense that he was just sending her the money there.
00:45:42.180 If it had gone to some organization in the Philippines, yeah, then I think that casts real suspicion.
00:45:48.360 And the money, he had the money.
00:45:50.120 He was worth quite a bit of money from real estate.
00:45:55.020 He was worth, they said, he was worth over $2 million.
00:45:59.020 So, I mean, by giving her, you know, obviously $100,000 is not chump change.
00:46:04.760 But it's not a lot to him.
00:46:06.180 Right.
00:46:06.700 I mean, he was busy gambling $100,000 on the weekend.
00:46:10.020 Right?
00:46:10.540 They said that he was gambling by himself a couple of days before the shooting.
00:46:15.360 We haven't seen any of that footage.
00:46:17.340 We haven't seen any of the footage from the casinos.
00:46:20.100 We don't know who came, his comings and goings.
00:46:22.200 I mean, that's all footage that we're waiting to see that, you know, obviously is part of the investigation.
00:46:29.060 But we haven't seen any of that.
00:46:30.420 Right.
00:46:30.860 I mean, there's a lot to see.
00:46:32.960 Joey in Tennessee.
00:46:33.900 Hi.
00:46:35.020 Hey, how you doing?
00:46:35.760 Yeah, good.
00:46:36.840 You really concerned or are you just making small talk?
00:46:39.360 He doesn't care.
00:46:40.160 He doesn't care, does he?
00:46:41.000 I'm sensing, I'm feeling that he just doesn't care.
00:46:43.220 He's just making small talk.
00:46:44.680 Go ahead.
00:46:45.240 You know, I'm not a conspiracy theorist at all.
00:46:49.220 And I can't say that there was one or two shooters or three or four.
00:46:53.900 I don't know.
00:46:54.640 But it seems funny to me that with, you know, as many people there were at that concert, they were able to pinpoint one.
00:47:01.440 But nobody has seen another shooter.
00:47:03.460 But everybody says they could see from the 32nd floor somebody shooting.
00:47:07.400 You'd think if there was other ones that somebody would come forward and say, yeah, there's a man with a gun shooting.
00:47:13.440 And I could see him playing.
00:47:14.320 It's not with that many people at the concert and that many eyes looking around.
00:47:18.680 The other thing that I have a question about is the fourth floor.
00:47:21.760 I don't believe that there was a shooter from the fourth floor.
00:47:23.880 But has anybody come forward and said what that flashing was coming from that window?
00:47:28.940 Yes.
00:47:29.820 And it had nothing to do with shots being fired.
00:47:32.080 I don't remember what they said was flashing, but it flashed several times and it flashed before the shooting began, too.
00:47:39.780 So it was something else, and I don't remember exactly what.
00:47:44.420 Thanks for the call, Joey.
00:47:46.180 Dan in Ohio.
00:47:47.680 Hi.
00:47:48.560 Hey, Pat.
00:47:49.380 Thanks for taking my call.
00:47:50.740 I had a question about security.
00:47:53.220 You know, you've got this venue with 22,000 people, high rises all around, and it's kind of inside the box thinking.
00:48:00.140 You know, they dry gulch Kennedy.
00:48:01.340 You had the University of Texas shooter.
00:48:03.820 Why didn't they have, you know, a guy or a gal up there, a couple of them with, you know, snipers covering the area?
00:48:10.100 Should someone be held responsible for lack of security?
00:48:14.120 I don't know.
00:48:15.860 I mean, I don't know that they provide that kind of security for events like that where you would cover a crowd with snipers.
00:48:25.040 I've never heard of that, actually.
00:48:28.580 Just a regular concert like that.
00:48:31.080 I know when there was, when we gathered on the mall in Washington, D.C., it seems like there was security like that.
00:48:37.240 Yes, there was.
00:48:37.720 But only for certain gatherings, if there's certain threats, if they perceive that there's some kind of threat ahead of time, they might cover it like that.
00:48:47.620 But other than that, I don't think you're going to have that kind of coverage and that kind of security.
00:48:52.220 Appreciate the call.
00:48:53.360 Yeah, go ahead, Dan.
00:48:54.540 I was going to say, you know, it'd be cheap security.
00:48:56.480 I mean, they had barriers.
00:48:57.700 They had all this stuff on the ground to keep, you know, people from getting run over and everything.
00:49:02.100 They just didn't cover the air.
00:49:04.640 Yeah, for a shooter.
00:49:05.840 Yeah, I mean, this is the first time somebody has lined up across the street from a vantage point like that above a crowd, to my knowledge.
00:49:15.940 So I don't know that you would see this coming.
00:49:18.740 Appreciate the call.
00:49:19.600 888-727-BECK.
00:49:24.920 Glenn, back.
00:49:26.480 Glenn, back.
00:49:36.240 Back, Grant, Jeffy for Glenn.
00:49:37.860 888-727-BECK.
00:49:40.920 Talked a little bit about Cam Newton yesterday.
00:49:44.180 He has been in some hot water for sexist remarks.
00:49:48.400 And here's what he said at a press conference when a female reporter asked him a football question.
00:49:53.620 Are we okay by playing this?
00:49:54.660 A lot of pride in seeing your receivers play well.
00:49:57.540 Devin Funchess has seemed to really embrace the physicality of his routes and getting those extra yards.
00:50:04.820 Does that give you a little bit of an enjoyment to see him kind of trump-sticking people out there?
00:50:08.680 It's funny to hear a female talk about routes.
00:50:12.200 Okay, so that's the worst thing a human can do, I guess, now, is to mock a female's knowledge of football.
00:50:22.320 I mean, the way that we are in society now, nobody can have fun with anybody else.
00:50:30.080 That's the most serious thing that you can do.
00:50:32.920 And so, I mean, his coach is even kind of piling on.
00:50:36.940 Oh, my gosh.
00:50:38.920 Dannon Yogurt dropped him.
00:50:41.320 He makes $11 million from his sponsorships.
00:50:43.920 And Dannon just said, okay, we're done.
00:50:45.620 And fired him yesterday.
00:50:47.440 Is that amazing?
00:50:48.680 I refuse to eat Dannon Yogurt from now on.
00:50:51.520 Yeah, and you should.
00:50:52.320 I'm going to stop eating Dannon Yogurt.
00:50:53.960 You don't eat yogurt.
00:50:55.420 I know.
00:50:56.080 Oh, you're, I mean, you're Mr. Yogurt.
00:50:58.440 A lot of people call you Mr. Yogurt.
00:51:00.420 I know that.
00:51:00.900 I know that.
00:51:01.460 And it's usually, you know, it's usually Dannon.
00:51:03.400 Yes.
00:51:03.820 But not anymore.
00:51:05.360 You have a lot of people asking us in the new black.
00:51:07.700 I mean, the, the, the, I had the yogurt ad.
00:51:13.280 The, the Dannon ad that he did.
00:51:17.200 Yeah, it was really good.
00:51:18.060 It was actually pretty good.
00:51:19.340 He's in a grocery store.
00:51:20.640 And he, uh, he's, you know, giving Dannon yogurt to people.
00:51:27.500 And, uh, it's this.
00:51:30.040 Hold it.
00:51:31.380 Come with me.
00:51:33.360 New Dannon Oil Coach Triple Zero is my go-to protein snack.
00:51:36.960 I know.
00:51:37.140 I'm sure.
00:51:37.860 Protein from yogurt.
00:51:38.740 Yep.
00:51:39.160 This Greek nonfat yogurt packs 15 grams of protein punch.
00:51:42.640 But what else?
00:51:43.180 Unlike some of the protein snacks, it has zero added sugar,
00:51:46.100 zero artificial sweeteners, and zero fat.
00:51:48.320 And will it up my game?
00:51:51.440 No, man.
00:51:52.520 No, man.
00:51:53.740 Put up my game?
00:51:54.900 Hey.
00:51:55.500 It's a, it's a, it's a pretty good.
00:51:56.920 No, it's funny.
00:51:57.540 It's a pretty good spot.
00:51:58.420 It's not, it's not bad.
00:51:59.360 But he said something about a woman talking football routes.
00:52:02.860 So he's done.
00:52:03.780 He's done.
00:52:04.420 He didn't say women shouldn't get equal pay.
00:52:06.660 He didn't say women are worthless.
00:52:07.960 He just said it was funny to hear you talk about routes.
00:52:10.540 Is that really that big a deal?
00:52:11.980 And it's so big that he did this big apology for it.
00:52:14.980 Oh my gosh.
00:52:15.240 With a careful thought, I understand that my word choice was extremely degrading and
00:52:20.720 disrespectful.
00:52:22.340 I mean, is that true?
00:52:23.160 Was it extremely degrading?
00:52:25.520 I don't know about that.
00:52:26.980 It is because you're apologizing now.
00:52:28.820 Oh yeah.
00:52:29.300 To be honest, that was not my intentions.
00:52:31.620 Obviously.
00:52:32.060 And if you are a person who took offense to what I said, I sincerely apologize to you.
00:52:41.600 I'm a man who tries to be a positive role model in my community.
00:52:48.040 Sorry.
00:52:48.500 I went back to Karate Kid there for a second.
00:52:51.380 And tries to use my platform to inspire others.
00:52:56.540 And I own.
00:52:57.800 All this for this?
00:52:59.120 All this.
00:53:00.420 Because it was funny to hear a woman talk about routes.
00:53:04.040 And what I did was extremely unacceptable.
00:53:08.340 And it goes on and on and on.
00:53:09.640 He's trying to cover it.
00:53:10.420 And they still pull the plug.
00:53:11.580 Yeah.
00:53:11.840 He apologized.
00:53:13.020 Yes.
00:53:13.300 And they're still going to cut his head off.
00:53:14.620 Uh-huh.
00:53:15.520 Unbelievable.
00:53:16.240 I mean.
00:53:18.060 It's pretty amazing.
00:53:19.160 It's pretty amazing how ultra sensitive we are.
00:53:21.920 That is for sure.
00:53:23.440 Wow.
00:53:24.060 But it's kind of nice.
00:53:25.020 I mean, this cam is, I think, left of center.
00:53:29.560 So, this is liberals eating their own here?
00:53:32.140 So, it's kind of good?
00:53:32.960 No.
00:53:33.240 Maybe it's a good thing.
00:53:35.180 But I just think it's so ridiculous that we've taken things this far.
00:53:40.060 It sure has.
00:53:41.500 When people are-
00:53:42.420 When it's just not that big a deal.
00:53:43.920 No.
00:53:44.860 Right?
00:53:45.400 Not that big a deal.
00:53:46.040 How can that be a big deal?
00:53:47.080 I mean, it obviously is.
00:53:48.960 Mm-hmm.
00:53:49.320 Because they've turned it into one.
00:53:50.980 Yes.
00:53:51.340 For sure.
00:53:52.020 But-
00:53:52.200 Because he said it was-
00:53:53.420 20 years ago, would that have been a huge issue?
00:53:55.660 No.
00:53:56.260 First of all, 20 years ago, women weren't allowed in the locker room or the press corps.
00:54:00.900 Okay?
00:54:02.020 Well, they could maybe be at the press conference.
00:54:03.820 So, be happy with that.
00:54:06.160 They could maybe be in the press conference if they made some cookies and brought them.
00:54:10.980 Thank you.
00:54:11.540 Right?
00:54:11.860 Thank you.
00:54:13.120 They were there serving tea in the back.
00:54:14.900 We're going to lose our Dannon contract now.
00:54:17.160 Dang it.
00:54:18.600 Ah!
00:54:19.660 Oh, no.
00:54:20.260 888-727-BECK.
00:54:22.660 888-727-BECK.
00:54:45.560 Glenn Beck.
00:54:50.260 This is the Glenn Beck Program.
00:54:58.000 With Pat Gray and Jeffy, we've been trying to get our heads around the shooting, of course,
00:55:03.240 from Sunday.
00:55:05.480 58 people murdered.
00:55:07.380 You know, close to 500 in the hospital.
00:55:10.300 I think several hundred of those have already been released.
00:55:13.440 Something like 350 of them are apparently okay now and been released from the hospital.
00:55:20.000 Good.
00:55:20.260 So, your calls on the, and then the resulting gun control, which was inevitable, but also
00:55:26.760 Cam Newton got fired from Dannon Yogurt yesterday.
00:55:29.320 Been talking about that a little bit.
00:55:30.480 And whether or not it's deserved.
00:55:33.340 He kind of laughed at a female reporter's knowledge of, and it was extensive, and I think
00:55:38.800 it surprised him.
00:55:40.120 And so then he just, he noted that it was funny to hear a female talk about wide receiver routes.
00:55:47.060 Right.
00:55:47.260 And, you know, look, Dannon can do what they want.
00:55:49.900 Right?
00:55:50.140 I mean, it's a privately held kind of thing to do whatever they want.
00:55:51.960 That's fine.
00:55:52.600 Good for them.
00:55:53.320 But, to pull the plug, and their press release made it seem like Cam Newton was friends with
00:56:01.960 the Las Vegas shooter.
00:56:03.700 Really did.
00:56:04.300 Yeah.
00:56:04.440 They, their statement is, we are shocked and disheartened at the behavior and comments
00:56:09.260 of Cam Newton toward the Jordan, is it Rodrigue, Rodrigue, Rodrigue, which we perceive as sexist
00:56:17.560 and disparaging to all women.
00:56:19.580 It is entirely inconsistent with our commitment to fostering equality and inclusion in every workplace.
00:56:26.640 Is it?
00:56:27.080 It's simply not okay to belittle anyone based on gender.
00:56:31.240 We have shared our concerns with Cam and will no longer work with him.
00:56:34.280 I guess it was okay in the Dannon commercial that we just aired.
00:56:38.160 Which is such a good point.
00:56:39.380 Listen to the end of this commercial where the wimpy guy comes up to Cam.
00:56:43.420 Snacks.
00:56:43.960 It has zero added sugar, zero artificial sweeteners, and zero fat.
00:56:47.460 And will it up my game?
00:56:50.620 Nah, man.
00:56:51.620 Nah, man.
00:56:52.480 You're beyond hope.
00:56:53.100 Oh, what?
00:56:53.620 Isn't that belittling?
00:56:55.400 Is that fostering equality with that young man?
00:56:57.380 An inclusion?
00:56:58.740 No.
00:56:59.520 Nah, man.
00:57:00.060 Not one little bit.
00:57:01.420 Nah, man.
00:57:02.180 But that was okay, right?
00:57:03.560 Yeah.
00:57:03.920 That was okay.
00:57:04.480 Because that wasn't a female reporter.
00:57:07.520 It's really, I mean, it's silly.
00:57:09.240 That's agonizing.
00:57:09.420 It's just silly where we are.
00:57:11.820 It is not a good place.
00:57:12.980 No.
00:57:13.460 I'm sorry, this is not a good place to be.
00:57:15.600 No, it's not.
00:57:16.500 It's really not.
00:57:17.700 Chris in Pennsylvania.
00:57:19.100 Hi, you're on the Glenn Beck program.
00:57:22.180 Hey, it's a pleasure to finally speak to you guys.
00:57:25.240 You too.
00:57:25.600 How's everything going today?
00:57:26.700 Good.
00:57:27.880 You're really concerned or you're just making small talk?
00:57:31.040 Yeah, just making small talk.
00:57:32.260 Okay.
00:57:32.800 All right.
00:57:32.960 So one thing I wanted to get on is the whole bump fire butt stock thing.
00:57:39.740 I own one.
00:57:40.760 And honestly, you know, of course, all the politicians are saying, oh, it's a fully, it makes it fully automatic.
00:57:48.480 It actually does not.
00:57:49.900 It's a simulation full auto.
00:57:51.500 So it can fire almost as fast.
00:57:53.680 But basically, the only way to actually turn into a real true full auto is to replace the trigger and put it, you know, adjust the seer on it and everything like that.
00:58:03.540 So the trigger itself is full auto.
00:58:06.240 And the thing is, I mean, there's multiple trigger systems out there.
00:58:09.760 There's one where you pull the trigger, it fires, and then you release the trigger and it fires.
00:58:13.880 And, of course, you know, there's a special safety for that as well.
00:58:18.700 So, you know, it's operator friendly.
00:58:22.440 So, and then on top of that, you know, of course, they want to ban and everything like that.
00:58:26.720 I mean, they're talking about all these gun control.
00:58:30.200 We need to up it.
00:58:31.660 There's not, I mean, honestly, I don't think you can up it any more than what it already is.
00:58:35.420 I mean, there's already gun control out there.
00:58:37.280 There's background checks already out.
00:58:38.780 I hope that statement is true.
00:58:41.040 Because I think they think they can.
00:58:42.760 Obviously, I mean, unless it's the black market or, you know, obviously some fuck down the road that's selling them on the streets.
00:58:48.720 You know, otherwise, everything's regulated.
00:58:51.820 And they always say, oh, well, there's that gun show loophole.
00:58:56.440 Guess what?
00:58:57.760 They're wrong once again.
00:58:59.040 There's still a background check at the gun show.
00:59:00.600 Well, that's not their name.
00:59:01.560 It's the private seller loophole if they really want to, you know, if you want to talk about a loophole,
00:59:05.680 if I said, like we were talking about earlier, if I sold a gun to Jeffy, he doesn't go through a background check then.
00:59:14.260 Which would, of course, preempt Jeffy from owning a weapon.
00:59:18.680 Clearly.
00:59:19.560 There's no background check.
00:59:20.960 It depends on state to state as well, I think, because they weren't doing something.
00:59:24.500 It very well may.
00:59:25.600 Yeah, it may.
00:59:26.040 I think if it's family, I think you can, but if it's not family or out of the family, I think some states were requiring they actually had to go to the shop and actually have them do the background check and transfer paperwork.
00:59:39.300 Yeah.
00:59:40.840 That's probably true.
00:59:42.060 Thanks, Chris.
00:59:42.760 Let's go to Dan in Michigan.
00:59:44.100 Hey, Dan.
00:59:46.300 Hey, guys.
00:59:47.000 Hey.
00:59:47.540 Hey, guys.
00:59:49.640 I just kind of want to echo what your last caller said.
00:59:52.220 I'm a gun manufacturer.
00:59:53.640 Glenn's got one of my guns that I've made.
00:59:56.040 And the whole trigger system, I think there's a lot of misconceptions out there.
01:00:00.400 And even conservative media, television, radio, everybody's kind of getting it wrong on the bump stock.
01:00:06.000 With the triggers we put in our guns, we use hyperfire triggers.
01:00:09.280 They're competition three-gun triggers.
01:00:11.880 You can put it in any standard mil-spec, aftermarket, AR.
01:00:16.560 And with that, a trained shooter can get north of 400 to 500 rounds a minute easily.
01:00:22.880 Wow.
01:00:23.640 Wow.
01:00:23.840 So the whole bump stock debate, the problem with it is you get people, like even Paul Ryan, saying, I don't know what this is.
01:00:29.180 So it makes it a very easy scapegoat to get that proverbial camel nose into the tent.
01:00:34.600 You might want to keep this information to yourself, though, Dan, because if that's the case, they'll go after anything that makes it faster.
01:00:43.840 So the point isn't necessarily, well, is it automatic fire then?
01:00:48.260 Even if it's not as fast, they're still going to attack it.
01:00:52.440 And if it goes up to 400 rounds a minute, they'll say there's no reason to do that except to kill mass.
01:00:58.120 And then they'll try to get limitation on magazines.
01:01:00.900 Yes, they will.
01:01:02.120 Oh, that's already...
01:01:02.860 I mean, haven't they already done that?
01:01:04.100 That's already being done.
01:01:05.280 Yes.
01:01:05.860 They will try to limit.
01:01:06.600 And then you're back to the Brady belt.
01:01:08.480 Yeah.
01:01:09.340 Yes.
01:01:09.720 Oh, you'll be beyond that.
01:01:10.620 So, yeah, keep some of that information on your inside voice.
01:01:14.520 I appreciate the call and the information and everything, but, you know, I mean, I appreciate
01:01:18.500 that Glenn has one of your weapons, but what are we, chopped liver?
01:01:22.700 Hey, you didn't DM me, Jeff.
01:01:24.760 I didn't DM you, I did you one.
01:01:27.640 Thanks, Dan.
01:01:28.300 I'll fill up the fat boy for you.
01:01:29.840 Thank you.
01:01:30.500 I appreciate it.
01:01:31.280 Mike in New York.
01:01:32.380 Hi, you're on the Glenn Beck Program.
01:01:34.680 How's it going?
01:01:35.580 Good.
01:01:35.860 Yeah, I just wanted to say that, you know, the liberals wanted to take away the guns
01:01:41.460 from everybody, but in reality, the only ones they need to take the guns away from are
01:01:46.360 the liberals, because they're the ones seemingly to be doing all the shooting.
01:01:50.560 No kidding.
01:01:51.420 Yeah, and that's, I mean, I don't know if this guy is going to turn out to be a liberal.
01:01:55.820 I don't know.
01:01:56.640 Some people are speculating, thanks for the call, Mike, that he chose this particular
01:02:01.360 venue, because they were quite possibly Trump supporters, quite possibly Republicans.
01:02:07.960 Right.
01:02:08.340 It was mostly white, and country music fans tend to be more conservative.
01:02:11.880 So, maybe it'll turn out that way.
01:02:14.060 I don't know.
01:02:14.720 And again, we may never know.
01:02:16.720 James in Indiana.
01:02:17.880 Hi.
01:02:18.060 Yeah, I was calling about the numbers situation.
01:02:23.480 You quoted some numbers they used about people that died in recent war.
01:02:28.540 Yeah.
01:02:28.860 And then you quoted numbers about people.
01:02:31.260 Yeah, NBC's numbers were that 1.2 million soldiers have died in war.
01:02:37.820 1.53 million people have died from gun-related deaths since 1968.
01:02:42.580 Exactly.
01:02:44.700 That's my point.
01:02:46.760 I really, it really irritates me when media describes a piece of time and says, where can
01:02:54.220 we go with this to make guns look the worst?
01:02:57.280 More people have died in car accidents since that same time period.
01:03:01.960 Yes.
01:03:02.420 As with guns.
01:03:04.320 Definitely.
01:03:04.620 Look at the real, how many law-abiding citizens that own guns have committed anything like
01:03:11.460 this since guns were, background checks were introduced, and people that go out and get
01:03:18.580 guns illegally.
01:03:19.960 Let's look at the numbers of how many people have actually committed something similar to
01:03:24.720 this that are law-abiding citizens and put that kind of math out there, and not just
01:03:29.240 trying to make guns look bad.
01:03:31.660 Oh, absolutely.
01:03:32.560 I mean, that's something I wanted to touch on.
01:03:35.380 Then the other thing, let's close the loopholes.
01:03:38.540 Look, I am a, I have a gun owner, but I can't stand all these loopholes either.
01:03:44.240 If it's, let's just, let's just get rid of it.
01:03:46.860 You don't need anything that stimulates.
01:03:49.380 You don't need anything that is.
01:03:51.260 You don't need anything that's close to.
01:03:53.360 If it's not semi-auto, it's not semi-auto.
01:03:56.580 If it's auto or close to auto or near auto, it should not be allowed, period.
01:04:01.820 What do you need that for?
01:04:03.100 You don't need that for anything.
01:04:04.680 And I love guns, and I'm an NRA member, but you don't need bull auto for anything in the
01:04:09.540 United States, except for fun at a range, and you can rent that, and you can go try it out,
01:04:15.220 and that should be the end of it.
01:04:16.300 Well, it's, that seems to sort of be the NRA's position, which is kind of surprising as well.
01:04:23.580 They seem to be supporting, at least looking into it.
01:04:25.800 So we'll see on that.
01:04:27.300 Appreciate the call, James.
01:04:28.140 And the other thing is, if NBC and the left is so concerned about human life.
01:04:33.320 Thank you.
01:04:33.740 Uh, let's take a look at the other number that they never care about.
01:04:38.320 The 53 million babies that have been murdered since 1973 in Roe v. Wade.
01:04:44.860 53 million.
01:04:46.280 Look at that.
01:04:47.100 That's 25 times the number combined that they used in gun-related deaths and in war.
01:04:54.280 That's 25 times the combined number.
01:04:58.200 53 million.
01:04:59.480 And if you're so concerned about human life, let's do something about that.
01:05:03.980 Uh, Jay in Florida.
01:05:04.940 Hi.
01:05:06.540 Uh, good morning.
01:05:07.520 Uh, good morning.
01:05:08.460 Uh, Glenn, it's really honored to talk to you.
01:05:10.540 Thank you.
01:05:11.080 Thanks for taking my phone.
01:05:11.660 It's probably less of an honor because this isn't Glenn, but, uh.
01:05:14.120 Good morning anyway.
01:05:15.120 But, yeah, good morning anyway.
01:05:17.740 Thank you.
01:05:19.060 That's good.
01:05:20.100 Listen, I'm a retired U.S. Army colonel.
01:05:22.500 I'm also a trauma surgeon and director of a trauma center here in Florida.
01:05:25.840 I do the same, what these guys did in Vegas.
01:05:27.660 And I just want to say a few words about the Second Amendment.
01:05:32.100 I came from communism.
01:05:34.060 Came to this country as an illegal alien essentially 34 years ago.
01:05:39.040 And having said that, look, the beauty of this country is not the Constitution.
01:05:44.120 The Constitution could have been written nicer.
01:05:46.580 There are some constitutions in the world that are written nicer.
01:05:49.200 But they're meaningless.
01:05:50.740 The meaningful part of this Constitution is three branches of government that are co-equal.
01:05:55.260 That was the genius.
01:05:57.300 And the only thing that keeps that going are the amendments of the Constitution.
01:06:02.240 And if Second Amendment falls, they all collapse.
01:06:05.860 Second Amendment is the one that holds up the rest of the amendment.
01:06:09.640 And us that have come from communism and countries where the weapons are outlawed for the common citizenry, we understand this better than anybody else.
01:06:21.320 Because we have seen what happens when federal governments grab power and then appoint another class of people called the elite or the avant-garde of the proletarian class, as Marx called it.
01:06:36.960 And they run the government where those rules don't apply to them.
01:06:41.960 And that's exactly what Democrats are here.
01:06:45.860 They're the avant-garde of the class.
01:06:49.160 You guys will have no weapons, but I'm going to have armed guards.
01:06:53.020 You guys will have a small carbon footprint and ride a bicycle, but I'm going to have my own airplane.
01:06:59.960 You guys, yeah, you guys will do this, but I will do that.
01:07:03.640 You guys will go into the wars, but I won't send my children to the wars, not because they don't want to go, but I'm so against the wars.
01:07:12.560 And you see this elite in Hollywood.
01:07:15.820 So when you have people, I came from Yugoslavia personally and served in the U.S. Army and retired, and I see this every day.
01:07:24.040 I'm going, guys, if you saw what I saw and how communist, elite, socialist ideology that is, how smug, dishonest, deceitful ideology and demagoguery that is, you would, and you know what?
01:07:45.060 And that was way before Obama, but Obama took it to another level in the whole thing.
01:07:51.880 So I'm glad to have Trump.
01:07:53.740 I love Trump.
01:07:56.640 You know, his wife grew up maybe 40 miles away from where I grew up, 40 kilometers actually away.
01:08:02.880 And we are really looking at this going, do not let it go.
01:08:09.040 Do not let it go.
01:08:10.560 Don't let a second amendment go, because Reston will go with it.
01:08:13.760 He was put there so the states could protect themselves from the government.
01:08:19.040 Not individuals, but states.
01:08:20.760 And states can't protect themselves from the intrusive government only by having every individual be armed.
01:08:28.020 That's the only way you can do it.
01:08:31.460 Tremendous.
01:08:32.360 Tremendously put, Jay.
01:08:33.760 Thank you for calling.
01:08:35.000 And that's why I love hearing from people who have come from communist countries, because they understand.
01:08:42.840 They get it.
01:08:43.940 They've seen this before.
01:08:45.300 And the left doesn't listen to us, because I guess we don't know anything.
01:08:51.400 But they've actually been subjected to all of this nonsense.
01:08:55.320 They see the warning signs.
01:08:57.800 Thanks for the call.
01:08:58.740 Appreciate it.
01:08:59.320 888-727-BECK.
01:09:04.300 Glenn Beck.
01:09:05.500 Glenn Beck.
01:09:13.140 Pat Gray.
01:09:14.900 And Jeffy for Glenn on the Glenn Beck program.
01:09:17.340 I ask you, Pat.
01:09:18.920 When you're scrolling through, let's say, oh, I don't know, Facebook, for example.
01:09:22.500 And you see a headline, Hubble just spotted something massive coming out of Uranus.
01:09:27.360 How is it possible that I cannot click on that?
01:09:30.380 You can't.
01:09:30.940 I mean, you have to click on that.
01:09:32.540 You have to.
01:09:32.780 I mean, you have to, right?
01:09:34.200 Yeah.
01:09:34.720 You can't see a headline like that and then say, no, I can't click on that.
01:09:39.360 You can't.
01:09:40.300 That's a great headline.
01:09:42.760 So the Hubble spotted something massive coming out of Uranus.
01:09:46.880 Yeah.
01:09:47.240 And I mean, I've clicked on it.
01:09:49.400 I'm waiting for the story to load.
01:09:51.460 I mean, you have to click it.
01:09:52.640 You have to.
01:09:53.700 It's impossible not to.
01:09:55.360 I just can't help it.
01:09:57.540 Do we know what it was that came out?
01:09:59.380 Some sort of massive burst of atmospheric, powerful stuff.
01:10:09.260 Yeah.
01:10:09.780 All right.
01:10:10.060 With gas particles.
01:10:11.120 Something else I wanted to kind of understand is, how do we lose 33,000 jobs in September,
01:10:19.720 but the unemployment rate went down to 4.2%?
01:10:24.620 So we have less jobs, but the unemployment rate went down.
01:10:29.900 Interesting.
01:10:30.460 That is interesting.
01:10:31.880 It's bizarre how that works.
01:10:34.060 It's almost like a tax reform.
01:10:36.240 Almost.
01:10:36.840 Which we got to get into as well.
01:10:38.040 GOP tax reform showing early signs of trouble.
01:10:40.920 What?
01:10:41.460 What a stunning surprise.
01:10:43.460 Glenn back.
01:10:48.600 Love.
01:10:50.180 Courage.
01:10:51.680 Truth.
01:10:52.980 Glenn back.
01:10:53.820 Pat Gray and Jeffy for Glenn, who's back on Monday.
01:10:57.060 You can also be listening for my new show, Pat Gray Unleashed, on the Blaze Radio and TV
01:11:01.700 Network immediately following this program.
01:11:05.300 Uh, we've been talking about, uh, obviously the gun control nonsense, which is being hammered
01:11:12.640 again, uh, as it is after every tragedy, because they try to take advantage of, they never let
01:11:18.240 a good tragedy go to waste.
01:11:20.040 They never let a crisis go to waste.
01:11:22.220 And they're, uh, they're going, they're going through with that again this time, uh, as they
01:11:27.640 always do.
01:11:28.040 Also, the NFL, some, some interesting developments in the Cam Newton story yesterday.
01:11:33.840 Now he's, he kind of made fun of a reporter.
01:11:37.400 I don't even know that that's, it's actually not even the way I took it, but maybe she did,
01:11:41.680 maybe others did.
01:11:42.920 She was describing some of the routes his wide receivers were running and, and said how aggressive
01:11:48.320 they were.
01:11:48.860 And he said it was funny to hear a female talk about routes.
01:11:52.800 Standing up here talking with a female about routes.
01:11:54.540 So anyway, Dan and yogurt dropped him.
01:11:57.540 Uh, his coach is disappointed in him.
01:12:00.680 Everybody's, uh, coming down on, and he, he apologized profusely and it looked like pretty
01:12:05.240 sincerely.
01:12:06.180 Of course he has to, because he's going to lose, he's lost money from this already.
01:12:10.900 He made, he made $11 million last year in endorsements.
01:12:14.480 And some of that, probably a decent portion of that, probably a 10th of it came from Dan and
01:12:19.000 uh, but the NFL's got some other issues to deal with.
01:12:23.680 They do like this weekend.
01:12:25.540 How many people, how many of their players are going to take a knee?
01:12:28.600 How many of them are going to, uh, engage in some sort of protest?
01:12:32.420 They're, they're starting to take this into the game situations now too, and do some form
01:12:38.660 of protest after they score touchdowns or, you know, make a sack or, or whatever.
01:12:44.820 Well, this is what they get.
01:12:45.800 You know what?
01:12:46.460 The NFL is, I'm almost, I'm almost prepared to just say tough.
01:12:49.700 And the NFL is, is hurting ratings wise.
01:12:53.300 Monday night football was down 13% from the week before.
01:12:56.840 And actually, and 16% in the demo, right?
01:12:59.460 In the money demo.
01:13:00.020 Oh yeah.
01:13:00.460 The 25, 54.
01:13:01.560 So yeah, you know, that can't last and make people happy.
01:13:06.480 Also now the NFL players association is kind of teaming up with George Soros, which is not
01:13:13.980 a good move.
01:13:14.760 Oh man.
01:13:15.220 Yeah.
01:13:15.380 That's not a good move.
01:13:16.220 No, no honey.
01:13:17.980 You know, if you, if the fans hate the political nature of the protests, they're really going
01:13:23.360 to hate this.
01:13:24.120 Yes.
01:13:25.260 Tax documents released, uh, show the NFL PA, the national football league players association
01:13:31.760 donated $5,000 to the center for community change action, a group active in anti-Trump resistance
01:13:39.020 bankrolled by a bunch of liberal foundations, including George Soros's open society.
01:13:48.240 A member of course, member of the AFL CIO, the NFL PA also contributed in 2013 and 2015
01:13:58.920 to working America, the AFL CIO's community affiliate, which open secrets said spent a million dollars
01:14:07.480 in 2016 to defeat Trump.
01:14:10.700 Yeah.
01:14:11.240 I think, why do you, you just don't want to go down that road.
01:14:14.300 Why would you go down that road?
01:14:16.560 I don't know, but they're doing it.
01:14:18.460 So it'll be interesting to see how if the, and then the NFL's got the CTE problem to deal
01:14:24.820 with too, because it was, it was discovered that Aaron Hernandez, who was convicted of
01:14:32.200 murder and then found innocent while he was, uh, in prison for the other murder, he was found
01:14:40.280 not guilty of a second and third, because I think that was a double murder, right?
01:14:44.800 Yeah.
01:14:44.940 Anyway, his, uh, they, they did an autopsy.
01:14:49.020 Turned out he did have CTE.
01:14:50.840 He was in the stage three of that, uh, concussion disease that changes personalities, makes you
01:14:56.620 more aggressive and, uh, makes people suicidal.
01:15:01.640 111 out of 112 people who have been tested after death have been discovered to have CTE.
01:15:08.440 So the NFL has that looming.
01:15:10.680 And really that's, I mean, that's looming big and we don't even have close to all the
01:15:15.620 information to that.
01:15:16.740 No.
01:15:17.000 I mean, from, I mean, you may come out of the womb with that.
01:15:20.760 I mean, we don't know, right?
01:15:21.840 I mean, seriously with the, yeah, they really don't know for sure.
01:15:24.660 They really don't know.
01:15:25.400 And there's a lot more to discover.
01:15:26.500 I'm not fighting for the NFL and I'm not fighting for the CTEs.
01:15:28.900 I mean, Aaron Hernandez was a, a, a, a, a lot of his life.
01:15:32.180 Yeah.
01:15:32.480 So it might not necessarily have been the CTE that caused the issue.
01:15:37.060 Yeah.
01:15:37.360 I mean, in fact, it probably, it probably wasn't.
01:15:39.300 Right.
01:15:40.100 And, and, and, and it's, and it is interesting how, since we don't know, I mean, anybody
01:15:44.660 that's diagnosed with CTE, it, nobody goes the other way.
01:15:48.680 Nobody becomes, he was so nice before he got it.
01:15:51.740 No.
01:15:52.460 Nobody goes the other way.
01:15:53.440 Everybody goes to the violent side.
01:15:55.080 Nobody's, he brought me flowers every day.
01:15:57.900 Nobody does that.
01:15:59.000 At least not that we've heard.
01:16:00.020 Right.
01:16:00.660 Not that we've heard.
01:16:02.100 And then of course the big, the big news of the weekend that everybody's waiting for
01:16:05.440 is, is the BYU Boise State game tonight.
01:16:09.200 The one and four.
01:16:10.180 So.
01:16:10.800 BYU Cougars.
01:16:11.420 Let me ask you a question.
01:16:11.920 Versus the two and two Boise State Broncos.
01:16:13.600 Let me ask you a question.
01:16:14.420 That's a big one.
01:16:15.220 It's a big one.
01:16:15.400 Will BYU score a touchdown tonight?
01:16:18.720 I have my doubts.
01:16:20.280 I have my doubts.
01:16:21.800 I know.
01:16:22.140 Boise State's not maybe as good as.
01:16:25.200 Past.
01:16:25.800 As in the past, just like us.
01:16:27.760 But they, well, not just like us, because I think this is the worst BYU team of all
01:16:32.140 time.
01:16:33.220 Since the 60s, anyway.
01:16:34.740 Since the 60s.
01:16:35.760 Since before LaBelle Edwards.
01:16:37.940 And Missouri's has really, really struggling.
01:16:41.300 Yeah.
01:16:42.480 You hate to see it.
01:16:43.860 I know.
01:16:44.720 I mean, I don't mind it with BYU so much, but.
01:16:47.860 As I don't mind it with Missouri.
01:16:51.520 And in high school, in high school, the numbers are starting to decrease now to the point where
01:16:56.580 some programs are actually dropping the sport because they don't have enough people going
01:17:00.200 out for football.
01:17:01.200 See?
01:17:01.640 It's, you know, the CTE thing.
01:17:03.520 The CTE thing is scaring the hell out of parents.
01:17:06.020 And they're like, no, you're not playing football.
01:17:07.640 No, let's do something else.
01:17:09.000 We'll play soccer.
01:17:10.140 Go play lacrosse.
01:17:12.060 You'll direct him somewhere else.
01:17:13.560 I was always a believer that, you know, here in Texas, I mean, they start putting kids
01:17:17.900 in pads and helmets when they're three.
01:17:19.680 They do, yeah.
01:17:20.300 Pretty much.
01:17:20.780 I mean, that's not too much of a stretch.
01:17:22.760 And, you know, I always figured that you should at least wait until you're, you know, in your
01:17:28.240 teen years anyway.
01:17:29.080 How old was Elvis when he started playing football?
01:17:30.680 I wouldn't let him start playing until he was 15.
01:17:33.720 15?
01:17:34.800 14 or 15, yeah.
01:17:36.360 Wow.
01:17:37.220 That's pretty late.
01:17:37.740 I made him play the game you hate.
01:17:39.600 I made him play soccer.
01:17:40.600 Yeah, that's.
01:17:41.300 I made him run.
01:17:41.680 Why would you have him in a communist sport?
01:17:43.140 Because I wanted him to run.
01:17:45.300 I wanted him to run, run, run.
01:17:47.100 And he did.
01:17:47.560 And he did.
01:17:48.200 Yeah.
01:17:48.500 And it paid off.
01:17:49.380 Yeah.
01:17:49.600 Because in the end, because then he came to me, come on, just let me play football.
01:17:53.680 I just want to play football.
01:17:54.460 I just want to play football.
01:17:55.400 Okay.
01:17:56.180 And then he became a Division I talent, which is pretty cool.
01:17:58.500 There you go.
01:17:59.200 Yeah.
01:17:59.960 888-727-BECK.
01:18:01.500 We're also talking about, of course, the fallout from the Las Vegas event with all of the talk
01:18:09.020 of gun control.
01:18:10.320 And this is going to be agonizing.
01:18:11.740 This is going to be a big fight.
01:18:12.780 It sure is.
01:18:13.240 With the largest of all time, this is going to be a big fight.
01:18:17.020 Mike in Florida.
01:18:17.840 Hi, you're on the Glenn Beck program.
01:18:21.920 Hey, Mike.
01:18:24.240 Did we lose him?
01:18:26.140 All right.
01:18:26.380 Let's go to Travis.
01:18:28.140 He's on.
01:18:29.860 Mike, you there?
01:18:31.440 Okay.
01:18:32.140 Let's go to Travis in Tennessee.
01:18:33.780 Hey, Travis.
01:18:34.520 Welcome.
01:18:36.540 Hey, how we doing?
01:18:37.780 Good.
01:18:38.620 You really concerned?
01:18:39.460 Or, again, are you just making small talk?
01:18:40.980 No, I'm just making small talk.
01:18:42.560 Okay.
01:18:43.160 All right.
01:18:43.640 Nobody's really concerned.
01:18:44.760 They don't really want to know.
01:18:46.220 No, they don't.
01:18:47.080 No, they don't.
01:18:47.560 It's the cashier disease.
01:18:48.700 Yeah, it is.
01:18:49.040 How are you doing today?
01:18:50.040 Yeah, fine.
01:18:50.880 Don't worry about it.
01:18:52.060 Go ahead, Travis.
01:18:53.380 If you're going to play Cam Newton's apology, you need to play the reporter's apology, the
01:18:58.100 one he belittled for her racist jokes.
01:19:03.720 Right.
01:19:04.220 Yeah.
01:19:05.060 Which is interesting because as soon as she was offended by Cam's comments, everybody
01:19:10.240 started looking for her old Twitter comments, and they happened to find some.
01:19:12.640 Yeah, welcome to the new world.
01:19:14.540 Yeah, welcome to the new world.
01:19:15.700 If we're going to start being where everything is sacred, then let's go.
01:19:20.380 Yeah, and everything is dug up from your past.
01:19:23.940 And so has she actually done a video apology like Cam did?
01:19:30.280 Yeah, I reckon she did.
01:19:31.840 She actually seen something on it last night.
01:19:35.360 That's amazing.
01:19:36.420 Not good.
01:19:37.060 That's amazing.
01:19:37.980 That's what you get.
01:19:39.800 Thanks, Travis.
01:19:40.560 Yes.
01:19:40.920 That's what you get.
01:19:42.020 This is the world the left has created.
01:19:44.580 It honestly is.
01:19:45.320 It's just as agonizing.
01:19:47.120 It's tough because, you know, again, they're getting eaten by their own now.
01:19:54.780 They created this problem.
01:19:56.500 Cam Newton is, I think, from my estimation, left of center.
01:20:01.360 And so he got caught up in the problem that was created by the left.
01:20:06.000 So, you know, they're eating their own.
01:20:08.300 And here I am defending him.
01:20:09.820 I'm not even a Cam Newton fan.
01:20:11.560 I know.
01:20:12.100 I think he's kind of obnoxious.
01:20:13.640 And had he actually done something to belittle the reporter?
01:20:18.140 Yeah, no, no.
01:20:18.660 It's just not belittling her.
01:20:20.700 No.
01:20:21.000 He's just joking around.
01:20:22.960 But you can't do that anymore.
01:20:24.860 Tim in Ohio.
01:20:26.260 Hi.
01:20:26.580 You're on the Glenn Beck program.
01:20:28.640 Hey, good afternoon.
01:20:29.980 Hey.
01:20:30.220 Hey, I have a question.
01:20:31.860 I keep hearing the argument about why do we need to have this weapon or that weapon.
01:20:37.560 Now, I do not own a full automatic.
01:20:41.160 I do not own an AR-15.
01:20:42.760 I think we own a gun in the house because my wife had bullets somewhere that hit me in the head one time.
01:20:49.720 But when it comes to a constitutional right, if someone wants to own a full automatic and shoot pumpkins in their backyard and they do it safely, why do I have to explain it to you?
01:21:01.660 Thank you.
01:21:02.320 You shouldn't have to.
01:21:03.340 No, you should not.
01:21:04.300 You shouldn't have to.
01:21:04.920 I mean, people own 10 TVs in a house.
01:21:07.800 Do they need 10 TVs?
01:21:09.920 No.
01:21:10.360 But if they want it, good for them.
01:21:12.700 Yes.
01:21:13.220 Tim, I would disagree with the name of 10 TVs.
01:21:17.180 Yeah.
01:21:17.680 Yeah.
01:21:18.140 It's a frustrating argument.
01:21:19.920 And you're right.
01:21:20.840 That makes me bristle every single time.
01:21:22.860 I know.
01:21:23.420 Why do you need a fully automatic?
01:21:25.980 Well, first of all, it's none of your business.
01:21:27.580 But secondly, let's revisit the reason for the Second Amendment.
01:21:33.200 And if you do that, then you might need it someday.
01:21:36.440 I don't know.
01:21:37.120 Is the government ever going to become tyrannical?
01:21:39.660 Maybe.
01:21:40.720 But that's what the Second Amendment is about.
01:21:42.920 It's protecting the citizens from that.
01:21:43.560 Well, but the founders didn't foresee semi-automatic weapons, Pat.
01:21:48.920 Actually, they probably foresaw a lot more than we think.
01:21:52.140 But they did know technology was going to develop past muskets.
01:21:56.160 Oh, how did they know that back then?
01:21:58.240 They were just kind of smart guys.
01:22:01.300 Just smart.
01:22:03.100 You know?
01:22:03.840 Really?
01:22:03.940 They were just smart people.
01:22:05.840 And as the government developed new weaponry and took advantage of new technology, so then
01:22:12.380 could the citizenry?
01:22:13.860 We should be able to match what they have.
01:22:16.320 Yes.
01:22:17.580 Now, nukes, does that extend to that?
01:22:19.580 I don't know.
01:22:19.920 If you can split an atom in your basement, go ahead and try.
01:22:23.340 Except don't, because you'll be arrested.
01:22:25.860 Right.
01:22:26.520 Right.
01:22:26.660 You can't buy.
01:22:27.260 You'll be arrested.
01:22:27.680 You're not going to be able to buy uranium.
01:22:29.180 You're not going to buy any of that.
01:22:30.140 So there's no way that you're going to be able to do that.
01:22:31.840 Well, Pat Gray said it was okay for me to split an atom in my basement if I could.
01:22:34.920 No.
01:22:35.700 No.
01:22:36.280 I take that back.
01:22:37.200 Don't split an atom if you can.
01:22:39.240 Okay?
01:22:40.100 But if you can, how would you want to do that in your basement?
01:22:43.200 If you can, just don't.
01:22:44.120 Yeah.
01:22:44.340 Just don't.
01:22:45.080 I mean, it's kind of cool that you have that knowledge.
01:22:47.060 That's great.
01:22:48.480 And you have the technology.
01:22:49.760 And you have the equipment to do it.
01:22:51.420 That's really impressive.
01:22:52.640 Don't.
01:22:52.960 But don't.
01:22:53.880 Maybe put that knowledge and that technology to another use, perhaps.
01:23:01.900 Glenn Beck.
01:23:08.720 Glenn Beck.
01:23:09.800 It's Pat Gray, Jeffy, for Glenn on the Glenn Beck program.
01:23:13.760 He's back on Monday.
01:23:14.780 888-727-BECK.
01:23:17.280 You know, in addition to the political correct speech that we are now bound to and is so evident
01:23:25.480 in that Cam Newton, and again, I'm not a big Cam Newton defender normally.
01:23:30.620 I'm not a big fan of his.
01:23:31.700 But, you know, his flippant comment to the female reporter, which is not that big a deal.
01:23:37.940 So, it's interesting.
01:23:38.620 When is it a big deal, Pat, when someone puts you down in front of other people?
01:23:43.240 Well, when it's really insulting.
01:23:44.600 And that really was.
01:23:45.400 No, it was not.
01:23:46.060 It was about football.
01:23:47.220 Who cares?
01:23:48.400 Who cares?
01:23:48.960 Right.
01:23:49.720 Whether women love football or don't love football.
01:23:51.920 Who cares?
01:23:52.400 It's about football.
01:23:53.380 Right?
01:23:54.000 Right.
01:23:54.340 You know, had he said something disparaging about her appearance, or they shouldn't make
01:23:59.680 the same money as the male reporters around her, okay, you can understand that.
01:24:03.520 That's offensive.
01:24:04.540 Normally, women are pretty stupid, but you're not.
01:24:07.940 Yeah, but it's about football.
01:24:10.320 Relax.
01:24:12.180 But not only are we dealing with all of that right now, but we got this cultural appropriation
01:24:17.840 thing, which is completely out of control as well.
01:24:20.740 Now, Jeremy Lin, who's Asian American, he's been in the news before because the ESPN reporter
01:24:27.360 a few years ago, you might remember, said that the chink in the armor of his game was,
01:24:33.380 and then went on to describe whatever the problem was with his game.
01:24:37.160 Well, he was talking about the chink in the armor as the expression that something's wrong
01:24:41.960 with your armor.
01:24:42.660 There's something wrong with your skill set.
01:24:45.200 Not that he was being called a disparaging name for Asian people.
01:24:49.280 Guy got fired.
01:24:50.740 So, that same Jeremy Lin now is being accused by former NBA forward, who also played for
01:24:59.220 the New Jersey Nets, but they're the Brooklyn Nets now.
01:25:02.800 Kenyon Martin tore into him in an Instagram video because Lin has decided to wear dreadlocks.
01:25:10.560 He said, here was what he said in his Instagram video.
01:25:23.040 Do I need to remind this damn boy that his last name is Lin?
01:25:27.920 Like, come on, man.
01:25:29.460 Let's stop with these people.
01:25:30.840 There's no possible way he would have made it on one of our teams with that BS on his head.
01:25:35.120 Come on, man.
01:25:36.500 Somebody need to tell him, like, all right, bro, we get it.
01:25:39.080 You want to be black.
01:25:40.420 Like, we get it, but your last name is Lin.
01:25:43.720 Wow.
01:25:44.160 So, you can't have a certain hairstyle if it resembles a race that normally...
01:25:52.120 I mean, isn't that also stereotyping?
01:25:55.140 Isn't that kind of racist to say that only blacks can have dreadlocks?
01:25:58.920 Yes.
01:26:00.260 I mean, and that's a lot worse than the Cam Newton.
01:26:03.500 I'll tell you that.
01:26:04.560 A lot worse.
01:26:05.380 A lot worse.
01:26:06.100 I wonder if the yogurt company canceled his deal.
01:26:08.460 And check this out.
01:26:11.140 The response from Jeremy Lin.
01:26:13.580 Just so classy.
01:26:15.380 Keep in mind, the guy went to Harvard.
01:26:16.640 He's pretty smart.
01:26:17.400 He knows how to defend himself.
01:26:20.040 He said, hey, man, it's all good.
01:26:21.540 You don't have to like my hair.
01:26:22.560 And definitely entitled to your own opinion.
01:26:25.000 Actually, I'm legit grateful for you sharing it.
01:26:29.060 At the end of the day, I appreciate that I have dreads.
01:26:32.740 And you have Chinese tattoos.
01:26:36.100 So, this cultural appropriation nonsense is coming from a black man with Chinese tattoos up and down his arms.
01:26:46.880 Thank you.
01:26:48.600 He said, but I appreciate the fact that you have Chinese tattoos because I think it's a sign of respect.
01:26:53.760 And I think as minorities, the more we appreciate each other's cultures, the more we influence mainstream society.
01:27:00.260 Thanks for everything you did for the Nets and for Hoops.
01:27:03.940 Had your poster on my wall growing up.
01:27:06.760 Is that a classy, smart, fighting response all at the same time?
01:27:15.500 Tremendous.
01:27:16.100 It's great.
01:27:17.060 I know I like Jeremy Lin.
01:27:19.920 Although.
01:27:20.740 It's just a classy response.
01:27:21.940 I will say, you know.
01:27:23.200 That's why I stopped wearing my hair in dreads a few years ago.
01:27:28.980 Because I, you know, I'm not big on the dreads.
01:27:31.580 So, you'd have them now.
01:27:32.680 Yeah.
01:27:32.960 I mean, I'm not big on the dreads.
01:27:34.260 Okay.
01:27:34.560 All right.
01:27:36.360 Let's go to Jimmy in New York.
01:27:37.880 Hey, Jimmy.
01:27:39.480 Hey, how are you doing?
01:27:40.240 Good.
01:27:40.460 Doing good.
01:27:40.880 I just wanted to touch base a little bit on some of the gun control stuff if we can.
01:27:45.920 Sure.
01:27:46.520 So, I live in New York, which we have some pretty strict laws, but we're a small town
01:27:50.180 in New York where I'm at, so pretty much everyone has guns.
01:27:53.000 But my biggest issue with the ignorant people that try and push the issue on gun control
01:27:58.800 when situations like this come up is they refer to everything as a weapon.
01:28:02.180 You know, it's an assault rifle or an assault weapon.
01:28:06.360 You know, it's not a weapon until you use it as such.
01:28:09.660 Yes.
01:28:10.080 You know, it's not, if I own a handgun and I never kill anyone, it's not a weapon.
01:28:14.820 It's just a handgun, it's a pistol, it's a shotgun, it's a rifle, whatever you want to
01:28:18.600 call it.
01:28:18.960 It's not an assault until it's used as such.
01:28:22.060 You know, I have a Louisville slugger.
01:28:23.460 If I hit someone over the head with it, is it now an assault bat?
01:28:27.180 Yes.
01:28:27.560 Yes.
01:28:28.480 Yeah, you're right.
01:28:29.080 And they do that.
01:28:30.180 Don't, I mean, don't make any mistake.
01:28:33.160 They do that on purpose.
01:28:35.520 They have labeled these rifles, the AR-15s and whatever, assault weapons because it sounds
01:28:41.900 really mean.
01:28:43.140 It sounds scary.
01:28:45.280 And so, you're right, it is agonizing.
01:28:48.980 Weapon is in that same term.
01:28:50.760 I mean, it's not a weapon unless you use it as such.
01:28:53.360 You know, if you go target shooting, you go deer hunting, well, I guess it could be used
01:28:56.620 as a weapon on, you know, a deer.
01:28:57.940 But, you know, the term weapon is something to assault somebody.
01:29:01.780 So, when they use these terms, they try to make it look worse than what it is.
01:29:05.340 And really, it's just ignorant people that don't know what they're talking about.
01:29:08.100 Exactly right.
01:29:09.160 Thanks, Jimmy.
01:29:09.800 Carl in Florida.
01:29:10.600 Hi.
01:29:13.540 Hey, Carl.
01:29:14.200 You're on the Glenn Beck program.
01:29:15.820 We've got about 45 seconds.
01:29:17.020 Go ahead.
01:29:17.280 Yes, I wanted to make a couple points.
01:29:20.220 I saw you touched on it earlier.
01:29:21.680 I'm just really frustrated with all these people talking about limiting the Second Amendment
01:29:26.120 and changing.
01:29:27.360 You know, it's very clear.
01:29:28.780 The right to bear arms shall not be infringed, which means not to limit in any way.
01:29:34.000 Yeah.
01:29:34.400 And you touched on the point.
01:29:35.880 This was my point.
01:29:36.760 The reason I called is I believe when they wrote the Constitution and the Bill of Rights,
01:29:41.460 they said, we understand that we're overthrowing a government because they're oppressive.
01:29:45.940 This is a good point, and I don't want to shortchange you.
01:29:48.140 So, let me pick it up on the other side.
01:29:49.980 We'll get right back to it.
01:29:50.700 We've got a hard break here.
01:29:51.540 We've got to get to it.
01:29:52.800 888-727-BECK.
01:29:54.900 Pat and Jeffy for Glenn on the Glenn Beck program.
01:30:01.240 Glenn Beck.
01:30:02.240 You're listening to the Glenn Beck program.
01:30:11.800 The discussion on gun control continues.
01:30:14.500 Pat Gray and Jeffy for Glenn on the Glenn Beck program.
01:30:18.160 But some other odds and ends.
01:30:21.420 Still a super desperate situation in Puerto Rico.
01:30:25.680 Apparently, they don't have enough water.
01:30:27.260 They don't have food.
01:30:28.440 And I think the reason for that was explained pretty well by the president.
01:30:34.960 So, this is an island.
01:30:36.880 Yeah.
01:30:38.000 Surrounded by water.
01:30:40.480 Water.
01:30:40.800 Big water.
01:30:41.600 Big.
01:30:41.760 Ocean water.
01:30:42.560 Water, ocean water.
01:30:43.500 They could well understand.
01:30:44.640 Yeah.
01:30:45.060 I didn't realize that up until that point.
01:30:47.600 And so, I was wondering, well, why can't we get things there?
01:30:50.940 Why can't we just drive some trucks over?
01:30:52.640 And it turns out.
01:30:53.840 This is an island.
01:30:54.960 Mm-hmm.
01:30:56.100 Surrounded by.
01:30:57.420 Pudding.
01:30:58.040 Water.
01:30:58.440 No water.
01:30:58.920 Big water.
01:30:59.660 Big.
01:30:59.940 Ocean water.
01:31:00.800 Okay.
01:31:01.320 Right.
01:31:01.760 Wow.
01:31:02.320 So, obviously, it's not easy.
01:31:06.040 It's not easy.
01:31:07.200 We haven't, we've also haven't mentioned this pro-life GOP congressman, Tim Murphy, from
01:31:11.800 Pennsylvania, who is obviously against abortion, but he's resigning because the news broke.
01:31:20.100 He urged his mistress to get an abortion.
01:31:24.300 That's all.
01:31:25.200 I mean, what's she supposed to do?
01:31:26.420 Have a kid?
01:31:26.900 Agonizing.
01:31:27.220 So, that reflects poorly.
01:31:29.280 It sure does.
01:31:29.880 On all of us.
01:31:31.000 Doesn't it?
01:31:31.780 Absolutely does.
01:31:32.760 He's like the poster child of what people think.
01:31:37.140 Of hypocrisy.
01:31:37.380 Yes.
01:31:37.880 Yes.
01:31:38.100 And that's exactly what they think.
01:31:39.780 And, you know, it's bad enough.
01:31:41.520 He cheated on his wife and had a girlfriend on the side.
01:31:44.820 And then you add abortion to that.
01:31:46.520 Oh, jeez.
01:31:47.700 You're a good golly.
01:31:48.460 But he's, you know, he's going to resign.
01:31:50.300 And he's.
01:31:50.860 Yes.
01:31:51.320 With some of the information that's developed between he and his family and his wife, he's
01:31:58.460 decided to resign.
01:32:00.060 Yeah.
01:32:00.880 He's resigning from the Congress.
01:32:03.020 I imagine soon he'll be resigning from his marriage.
01:32:05.700 I would guess that that probably comes with that.
01:32:07.760 Yeah.
01:32:08.060 There may be an issue, you know, because he's had discussions with the family and we've decided
01:32:13.340 to move on.
01:32:14.020 Yeah.
01:32:15.500 Yeah.
01:32:16.740 I'll bet somebody in that relationship decided to move on.
01:32:19.380 You aren't lying.
01:32:19.740 Big time, man.
01:32:20.800 Also, the GOP's push for tax reform, hitting some more snags.
01:32:23.960 What agenda item of the Republicans isn't hitting snags?
01:32:28.600 In fact, they're all slamming into brick walls.
01:32:31.440 Bridge abutments.
01:32:32.400 So there's never going to be a point when, since we have, you know, since we were told
01:32:37.860 that we needed the House and the Senate and then the White House and we've got them
01:32:41.320 all, but there's never going to be a point when we say, here's our deal, take it.
01:32:45.980 For some reason, they can't seem to do that.
01:32:47.520 I don't understand that.
01:32:48.500 Democrats have no problem doing it.
01:32:50.520 Republicans just can't do it.
01:32:51.740 They're so inept.
01:32:52.660 They won't.
01:32:52.920 So inept.
01:32:54.820 I don't know.
01:32:55.420 So they've pivoted already to the tax reform because they couldn't get repeal of Obamacare
01:32:59.660 done.
01:33:00.700 And now they've got the same divisions among the members.
01:33:04.460 Why?
01:33:05.400 Because this new tax plan sucks.
01:33:08.480 That's why.
01:33:10.860 Huh?
01:33:11.360 What?
01:33:11.620 That's why.
01:33:12.600 It's just, it's staggering how inept they are.
01:33:18.360 You know, and I hate to do the call your congressman thing because we've done that so
01:33:23.300 many times and it's just so frustrating.
01:33:25.640 But maybe this is another one of those occasions where it would come in handy if we put some
01:33:31.460 pressure on them and say, look, we don't want just three percentage points and the tax raise
01:33:37.420 for millions of Americans and a little bit lower or about the same for others, just lower
01:33:43.740 taxes.
01:33:45.080 And you don't go into a negotiation saying, I want 3% less.
01:33:49.920 You go into a negotiation saying, I want zero taxes.
01:33:55.260 How about that?
01:33:55.600 We're going to repeal the 16th amendment and you start from that vantage point.
01:34:00.620 Then you wind up with a 15% across the board flat tax.
01:34:04.220 There's an idea.
01:34:05.180 Yeah, I know.
01:34:06.040 I mean, that whole negotiation thing.
01:34:09.100 Yes.
01:34:09.640 So this is what we want.
01:34:11.440 Here's what you want.
01:34:12.700 Let's meet somewhere in the middle.
01:34:14.380 Someone in office who told us during the campaign he was a really good negotiator.
01:34:18.340 Hmm.
01:34:19.280 Well, I mean, he's the same person that told us why Puerto Rico gets.
01:34:24.080 So, and that was important information, important information, an island surrounded by spoons,
01:34:31.980 water, water, big water, big ocean water.
01:34:34.560 Oh, okay.
01:34:36.320 888-727-BECK.
01:34:38.560 Carl in Florida.
01:34:40.040 Hi, we were, I think we were discussing the second amendment with you when last we spoke.
01:34:45.600 Yes.
01:34:46.060 So what was your second point on that?
01:34:47.880 Well, my second point was that, you know, the idea was when the founding fathers wrote
01:34:54.360 the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, they understood that they had just done, overthrown
01:35:00.860 an oppressive government.
01:35:02.240 Exactly.
01:35:02.440 And at some point, our government might in the future become oppressive.
01:35:06.080 And the populace would need to be able to do the same thing because they derived their
01:35:10.800 power from the consent of the governed.
01:35:12.080 You know, if we decide not to consent anymore, we would need to do that.
01:35:16.160 Well, in order to do that, you can't overthrow a government that has M1A1 tanks and missiles
01:35:21.980 with a pistol that can't shoot more than one bullet at a time.
01:35:25.940 Exactly.
01:35:26.240 You know, and you've touched on it.
01:35:27.180 It's the first time I've heard anybody other than me think that.
01:35:29.540 I should have the right to own a tank.
01:35:31.180 I should have the right to own an F-16 if I want, if I can afford it.
01:35:34.420 I should be able to order whatever weapon, whatever arms, the right to bear arms would
01:35:40.860 be, you know, it's talking about the military, it's talking about the militia, it's talking
01:35:45.260 about military-grade arms.
01:35:47.000 And you should not infringe on the right of the people to own whatever they want.
01:35:51.060 And it's none of their business what we own.
01:35:52.720 Yeah, right.
01:35:53.220 It's really refreshing to hear you guys say that.
01:35:55.240 Yes, and it's because it sounds mean to say it, Carl.
01:35:58.080 It sounds, I guess, too nasty to say that we should have the weaponry we need to defend
01:36:06.440 ourselves.
01:36:07.300 And the thing is, nobody's going to, if it were illegal to own an F-15, nobody would.
01:36:12.840 It's cost prohibitive.
01:36:13.960 Where are you going to put it?
01:36:16.620 I'm pretty sure it doesn't fit in my garage.
01:36:19.660 If everybody in America had an M1A1 tank in their garage, they wouldn't think about coming
01:36:25.020 here because, good Lord.
01:36:26.060 That's very true.
01:36:27.580 Yes.
01:36:28.560 Thanks for the call, Carl.
01:36:30.060 And you get so tired of hearing them.
01:36:32.560 Well, what's next, a tank?
01:36:34.160 Well.
01:36:35.060 Okay.
01:36:35.660 Yes.
01:36:36.300 I mean, it's not next.
01:36:37.320 It's already assumed we could own one if we wanted to.
01:36:39.940 And by saying that we're preparing for the possibility of.
01:36:45.440 That doesn't mean you're calling for it.
01:36:47.100 Thank you.
01:36:47.580 That doesn't mean you want it.
01:36:48.800 That doesn't mean you're inciting it.
01:36:51.580 That just means that that's what the original intent was.
01:36:55.620 And I think we can all noodle that out as adults.
01:36:57.660 Right?
01:36:58.400 I would hope so.
01:36:59.540 David in Ohio.
01:37:01.200 Hi.
01:37:01.420 Hi.
01:37:02.480 Hi.
01:37:03.020 How you doing?
01:37:03.580 Good.
01:37:03.800 My comment is, how do you think the left would feel instead of focusing on the Second Amendment,
01:37:10.520 we focused a little bit on the First Amendment and had some common sense biblical morality
01:37:16.400 in school, teaching these kids about right and wrong.
01:37:21.080 David, you are talking crazy.
01:37:23.240 I think we need to start doing that.
01:37:25.160 I don't disagree.
01:37:27.160 I think that's probably an excellent idea to do.
01:37:29.880 And you know, I think Glenn's kind of getting to that point, too, because he's talked about
01:37:33.760 boycotts and things, which is something that's not usually, it's not a condition of the right.
01:37:38.880 It's just not.
01:37:39.580 We don't like doing that.
01:37:40.520 We like the free market to work.
01:37:42.320 But wow, is it effective for them.
01:37:44.760 Sure is.
01:37:45.220 So giving them a little bit of their own medicine never hurt a thing.
01:37:48.580 Thanks, David.
01:37:49.500 Glenn in Tennessee.
01:37:51.780 Welcome.
01:37:53.140 Have me on.
01:37:54.160 You bet.
01:37:55.820 Hey, so I, you know, all this news I hear about North Korea, it seems inconceivable that
01:38:02.080 they could even ever get a missile off the ground.
01:38:03.940 And, you know, our president seems to mock that idea.
01:38:09.000 But I haven't heard a single news outlet pose the question about what if this shooting
01:38:13.560 is somehow connected to them.
01:38:15.140 To North Korea?
01:38:16.660 No, I haven't heard anybody broach up possibility.
01:38:19.220 The Las Vegas Sheriff's Department and the Police Department and the FBI have not told
01:38:23.200 us all of their lines of questions.
01:38:24.980 So it's possible.
01:38:25.920 Yeah, maybe something is possible.
01:38:28.500 I mean, Kim Jong says he wants to rain down fire on us.
01:38:31.900 Yeah.
01:38:32.280 And it fits the description.
01:38:33.440 Yeah, it does.
01:38:34.260 Yes, it does.
01:38:35.380 Thanks, Glenn.
01:38:36.580 Just throwing it out there.
01:38:37.480 All right.
01:38:37.920 Yeah, I hadn't considered that.
01:38:39.360 That's for sure.
01:38:40.520 Ellen in Florida.
01:38:41.820 Welcome.
01:38:42.700 Hey, Jesse.
01:38:44.640 Hi.
01:38:46.720 Is this my buddy, Jesse?
01:38:49.220 Well, it is Jeffy, yes.
01:38:50.960 If we're buddies, then yes, this is him.
01:38:54.060 Okay.
01:38:54.960 Okay.
01:38:55.440 Okay.
01:38:56.000 Personal question.
01:38:57.380 Oh, boy.
01:38:57.760 We're married.
01:38:59.560 Jeffy is married.
01:39:00.780 Jeffy is married.
01:39:01.820 I mean.
01:39:02.620 Getting a divorce?
01:39:04.760 Are you hitting on Jeffy?
01:39:06.320 Are you friends with my wife?
01:39:09.320 Do you know something I don't?
01:39:11.620 Yes or no?
01:39:12.720 Then we can continue the conversation.
01:39:18.300 Yes or no?
01:39:19.760 Well.
01:39:20.180 You're planning a divorce?
01:39:21.340 Not right now.
01:39:23.140 A little premature, apparently, Ellen.
01:39:24.900 Not right now.
01:39:25.680 Yeah.
01:39:26.820 Well, the number is on the board.
01:39:28.860 Call me if you do.
01:39:30.220 Okay?
01:39:32.200 Okay.
01:39:32.780 Wow.
01:39:33.180 All right.
01:39:33.980 It's always good.
01:39:34.600 Thank you.
01:39:34.720 This is a first in human history.
01:39:37.440 A female has actually hit on Jeffy.
01:39:39.640 Well, do you identify as a female, Ellen?
01:39:43.360 Yeah.
01:39:43.780 I don't want to be presumptuous.
01:39:45.660 So, what's on your mind?
01:39:47.200 What do you have?
01:39:47.340 I'm just going to go back.
01:39:48.560 I listened for you now.
01:39:50.260 I don't have a computer, and you're going with Pat, so I'm going to have to listen and
01:39:55.380 see every day if you're there.
01:39:57.160 There you go.
01:39:58.600 It's a tough chore, but.
01:39:59.540 Okay.
01:39:59.960 Getting back to it.
01:40:00.060 Yeah.
01:40:00.080 I know.
01:40:00.340 Somebody's got to do it.
01:40:01.180 She'll do it.
01:40:02.540 All right.
01:40:02.840 Go ahead.
01:40:03.180 What's your comment?
01:40:04.700 My comment is they had to drop him.
01:40:09.240 Okay?
01:40:09.860 They had to drop who?
01:40:10.800 Oh, they had to drop Cam Newton?
01:40:13.040 Yeah.
01:40:13.520 Okay.
01:40:13.860 Okay.
01:40:14.380 I know nothing about sports.
01:40:16.700 Okay?
01:40:18.140 I thought it was a cute line.
01:40:20.660 They have to drop him because all the fat women that buy yogurt thinking that they're
01:40:26.680 going to lose weight when they eat six of them at lunch.
01:40:32.400 I'm glad you're saying this and not us.
01:40:34.040 Yes, this is not us.
01:40:35.360 Because they're going to lose a lot of business.
01:40:40.680 Yeah.
01:40:40.940 Yeah, that's true.
01:40:41.980 Yeah.
01:40:43.180 Okay.
01:40:43.780 Now, I was brought up in a house with no sports.
01:40:47.580 Mm-hmm.
01:40:47.940 My grandfather, he died in 1968.
01:40:52.260 Okay?
01:40:52.860 So this is, and he was a coal miner.
01:40:55.160 He had black lung.
01:40:56.700 Okay?
01:40:57.120 Oh, wow.
01:40:57.700 He would go down to the bar.
01:41:00.540 We lived in Brooklyn.
01:41:01.800 Okay?
01:41:02.540 Mm-hmm.
01:41:03.560 And he's, the guy that got the first million dollar paycheck, he said,
01:41:11.660 nobody is worth a million dollars.
01:41:14.660 I will never watch baseball again.
01:41:17.180 And he would go drink.
01:41:18.580 Mm-hmm.
01:41:19.480 But he would have his back to the thing.
01:41:22.020 Nobody is worth it.
01:41:23.340 Wow.
01:41:23.740 Yeah.
01:41:24.040 Okay?
01:41:24.660 But they had no choice.
01:41:27.460 They had to fire him.
01:41:29.040 I don't know what she was talking about.
01:41:31.880 Mm-hmm.
01:41:32.320 Okay?
01:41:32.860 Mm-hmm.
01:41:33.280 So, no, I'm not offended, but it's all, it's all the, I'm sure not in your place,
01:41:41.600 but look, look at, in, like, different places, and all the women eating the yogurt
01:41:46.780 thinking they're going to lose, you know, 100 pounds.
01:41:52.100 And it most definitely isn't here.
01:41:53.880 Yeah.
01:41:54.160 In this place.
01:41:54.780 No, not even close to here.
01:41:56.920 I want to make that clear.
01:41:57.880 And all that, and they think they're going to lose.
01:42:00.660 All right.
01:42:00.980 Okay?
01:42:01.400 So.
01:42:01.740 Okay.
01:42:02.040 They had no choice on that.
01:42:03.900 Yeah, I'd like to thank you for your call, Ellen, but I don't know if that means that
01:42:07.420 we agree with what you said.
01:42:09.060 Holy cow.
01:42:09.740 I can't say thank you, though.
01:42:10.860 Oh, that was, that was terrible.
01:42:12.040 Oof.
01:42:12.480 We don't agree.
01:42:16.300 Glenn, back.
01:42:24.160 Glenn, back.
01:42:25.460 Back, great.
01:42:26.420 You can hear my new show, Pat Gray Unleashed, every weekday, immediately following this show
01:42:30.800 on the Blaze Radio and TV network.
01:42:34.360 888-727-BECK.
01:42:36.180 Glenn is back on Monday, by the way.
01:42:37.780 Let's go to Cecil in New York.
01:42:41.620 Hello.
01:42:42.500 Hi.
01:42:43.180 Hi.
01:42:43.540 Or is this Cecile?
01:42:45.540 Cecil.
01:42:46.120 Cecil.
01:42:46.580 Okay.
01:42:46.920 Okay.
01:42:47.160 I would just like to say that in light of all of the issues that are going on around
01:42:56.880 the globe, around the world, I would just like to say that I appreciate so greatly the
01:43:03.100 humor that you guys put out there.
01:43:04.760 The humor, the humor, the humor.
01:43:07.760 I appreciate it.
01:43:08.300 Thank you.
01:43:08.640 Thank you.
01:43:09.540 Yeah.
01:43:09.820 I think it makes the medicine go down a little bit easier.
01:43:13.520 I've always believed it.
01:43:15.100 And the coffee.
01:43:16.400 Yeah.
01:43:16.740 Yeah.
01:43:16.920 Right.
01:43:17.620 Thanks, Cecil.
01:43:18.600 Appreciate it.
01:43:19.300 Well, a spoonful of sugar helps with the coffee.
01:43:20.380 It does.
01:43:21.100 Yes, it does.
01:43:22.360 Douglas in Texas.
01:43:23.960 Hi.
01:43:24.200 You're on the Glenn Beck program.
01:43:25.920 Yeah.
01:43:26.200 Good morning, guys.
01:43:26.920 Thanks for taking the call.
01:43:28.100 Actually, Friendswood, Texas.
01:43:29.840 I know Glenn was visiting Friendswood after Harvey.
01:43:33.680 Yeah.
01:43:34.180 Right around the corner from my mother-in-law's home.
01:43:36.860 Mm-hmm.
01:43:37.800 And the Texas delegation had visited us when they came down.
01:43:43.180 Just a quick take on Cam Newton's story.
01:43:46.760 I think they look for an excuse to dump him.
01:43:49.500 It's probably more of taking a knee than it is.
01:43:52.340 Might be.
01:43:53.300 I think it's coming.
01:43:54.160 Yeah, that's a good point.
01:43:54.740 Has he been one to take a knee?
01:43:56.800 I don't know that.
01:43:58.060 Yeah, I don't either.
01:43:58.960 No, just the whole protest thing.
01:44:00.560 Just in general, you think?
01:44:01.720 Oh, okay, yeah.
01:44:01.980 Get out of the NFL.
01:44:02.320 It's kind of a way to get out.
01:44:03.360 It's possible.
01:44:04.440 Yeah.
01:44:05.240 I hadn't even considered that.
01:44:06.680 I had not either.
01:44:07.680 Thanks, Douglas.
01:44:08.760 Hope things are drying out there in your neighborhood.
01:44:12.380 Steve in Georgia.
01:44:13.760 You're on the Glenn Beck program.
01:44:15.360 Hi.
01:44:16.320 Hey, guys.
01:44:17.020 Hey.
01:44:17.300 Thanks for taking the call.
01:44:18.560 Yeah, I'm a 53-year-old male, born and raised in the southeastern United States.
01:44:23.700 I have many guns, concealed carry permit, and all that.
01:44:28.080 But probably two of the most highly debated issues in my lifetime have been either race
01:44:33.060 relations or gun control.
01:44:35.500 Absolutely.
01:44:36.680 I was thinking, nobody ever seems to get to a resolution.
01:44:40.260 We all feel real strongly about our opinions and what direction we're coming from.
01:44:44.440 And what would be wrong with having a national televised debate?
01:44:48.060 Let's pick four people, intelligent people, from each side to present the facts and sit
01:44:54.340 there and discuss this and put it on national television.
01:44:58.400 I mean, when you think of how many people tune into that circus of a presidential debate
01:45:02.300 and watch that.
01:45:03.480 Well, that's the first problem with that is talking about facts, because what happens
01:45:08.700 with that, you'll never get anywhere.
01:45:10.580 We'll get on TV and we'll start talking about, we'll hear the lies, and then you'll get bogged
01:45:15.860 down in trying to cover up, well, that's not a fact.
01:45:18.560 That's a lie.
01:45:19.420 No, it's not.
01:45:20.580 And you'll never get anywhere.
01:45:21.700 The other problem is finding four intelligent people from the left.
01:45:24.780 That's another problem.
01:45:31.080 I'd actually love to do that.
01:45:32.400 You could probably do three, right?
01:45:33.240 Maybe two or three?
01:45:34.060 I don't know.
01:45:35.780 No.
01:45:37.000 Probably not.
01:45:38.000 No?
01:45:38.380 I don't think so.
01:45:40.980 Have a great weekend.
01:45:42.500 Glenn is back Monday, which is Columbus Day, so that's the day we celebrate the genocidal
01:45:47.160 maniac, I guess, that was Columbus Day.
01:45:49.160 On my show, Pat Gray Unleashed, on Monday, we're going to have David Barton in to tell you
01:45:52.920 the real story of Christopher Columbus.
01:45:57.000 So join me for that.
01:45:58.480 That'll be at noon Eastern, immediately following the Glenn Beck program.
01:46:06.180 Glenn Beck.
