The Glenn Beck Program - Best of the Program ｜ Guest： Graham Allen

00:00:00.000 Hello, podcasters. It's Monday, and holy cow, it was like a crap storm over the weekend.

00:00:08.200 The media was just throwing crap at everything. First of all, we talk a little bit about Ben

00:00:14.080 Shapiro. I don't know if you know this, he's pro-Hitler. Unbelievable stuff. We'll talk about

00:00:20.300 that, give you the audio that caused the stir. Also, Graham Allen joins us. He was in a crap

00:00:25.500 storm. Did you know Graham Allen, who is a host here at Blaze TV, how racist he is? Oh, I sure do.

00:00:33.800 And hates little girls, too. Apparently. Yeah. So he's a misogynist racist who just is furthering

00:00:39.740 the Southern gun culture. Unbelievable, that story. And of course, we have the Women's March,

00:00:46.660 which was out of control, anti-Semitic. Of course, you never really heard much about that.

00:00:50.280 And the big story, we have a woman, I don't even feel comfortable even giving her name anymore.

00:00:58.680 We have a woman who was a chaperone from Covington High School. She tells us what really happened

00:01:06.700 with that Catholic school trip in Washington, D.C. It's an amazing story. Just a side note,

00:01:13.760 after the interview, I asked her to stay on. We spoke for about 15 minutes.

00:01:18.080 People were coming to her door, and she is, they all are, a little afraid for what is happening next.

00:01:28.640 We follow that story. You don't want to miss a second of today's episode,

00:01:33.740 and you can find it right now, today's podcast.

00:01:36.520 You're listening to The Best of the Glenn Beck Program.

00:01:47.760 By the way, our sponsor is Home Title Lock.

00:01:54.800 Home Title Lock is a great company because they are the only ones who can do something.

00:01:58.540 I think when you find a company that is the only one that can solve a problem,

00:02:01.800 this is a good company to be in business with. It's a good company to sign up for.

00:02:05.900 This is one that we didn't even know this thing existed.

00:02:09.100 FBI says it's the fastest growing crime, you know, and cybercrime is big.

00:02:13.520 But this is not cybercrime. This is old-fashioned crime.

00:02:17.960 They're actually not stealing the stuff in your house.

00:02:20.400 They're stealing your house, and they have to do it with paper.

00:02:24.040 Yeah.

00:02:24.220 And they go down, and they file the paperwork, and it's like 40 bucks.

00:02:28.540 You forge a signature, and you're done, and you have the house.

00:02:33.040 Please check and see if your parents have been crimes of this.

00:02:37.060 If you are a crime of this, only one company can stop it.

00:02:40.900 It's HomeTitleLock.com.

00:02:42.620 $100 search for free to make sure you haven't already been victimized.

00:02:47.100 HomeTitleLock.com. Do it now.

00:02:49.120 Seems like a difficult thing to get into is what I'm saying.

00:02:52.740 I mean, I just be...

00:02:55.100 Maybe it's a...

00:02:56.040 I'll give it a day. I'll give it a day.

00:02:57.820 I want you to hear the whole argument.

00:02:59.460 I think I can make the whole argument.

00:03:02.120 I think I can make the whole argument.

00:03:03.660 I would like to hear it in more than 10 seconds.

00:03:05.820 Do you want to do it now?

00:03:06.640 Well, no. You said you were going to take a day.

00:03:09.040 I would like to hear a more than 10 second thought out version of that argument.

00:03:13.460 All right.

00:03:14.220 All right.

00:03:14.780 I won't say it today.

00:03:17.080 I will say it tomorrow.

00:03:22.040 Here's the...

00:03:22.920 I'm going to say it anyway.

00:03:23.920 I just know what I can feel it in me.

00:03:25.860 All right.

00:03:27.200 Let's just look at the weekend.

00:03:29.000 Let's just look at the weekend.

00:03:31.980 What happened?

00:03:32.660 We had Ben Shapiro, a good friend of ours, say something about pro-life and pro-life people.

00:03:43.440 It was taken out of context.

00:03:45.960 It was run up every flagpole.

00:03:49.040 And he actually lost sponsors because of a statement that he made.

00:03:55.100 And here it is.

00:03:56.020 He made the statement, the pro-life statement, that, you know, the guys who are standing up for pro-life, they believe in life.

00:04:05.340 They wouldn't have even killed Hitler as a baby.

00:04:08.880 Oh, my gosh.

00:04:12.760 That's horrible.

00:04:14.740 They wouldn't have even killed Hitler.

00:04:17.060 No, they, as he went on to say, they would have said, let's put him in a good home.

00:04:22.640 Give him good parents.

00:04:24.420 You know, if you could go back in a time machine, would you kill Hitler?

00:04:27.180 No, we don't kill innocent babies.

00:04:30.280 And we don't kill people who have not yet committed crimes either.

00:04:33.260 Right.

00:04:33.480 Whatever.

00:04:33.700 We minority report.

00:04:35.260 How is this controversial?

00:04:37.360 First of all, he's Jewish.

00:04:39.660 He's also the victim of the most anti-Semitic attacks in the entire media.

00:04:44.800 The argument is what?

00:04:45.780 He's pro-Hitler?

00:04:47.400 I mean, how stupid do you have to be to believe these things?

00:04:51.140 So there's strike one.

00:04:52.660 There's strike one.

00:04:54.580 Strike two.

00:04:59.040 Actually, that should be strike three.

00:05:00.440 Strike two, because I want to count up.

00:05:01.780 Counting them up to the biggest outrage of the weekend.

00:05:05.180 Strike two is the Women's March.

00:05:09.640 So the Women's March happens this weekend.

00:05:14.000 And they actually get on stage.

00:05:17.340 And they are actually saying anti-Semitic things.

00:05:22.440 Now, we have said long ago, you don't know who these people are.

00:05:28.340 You don't know who these people are.

00:05:29.560 Look at who they are.

00:05:30.580 We've been saying this from the beginning.

00:05:32.540 You have a women's march led by these people?

00:05:36.720 You don't want to be in bed with those people.

00:05:38.900 Oh, we were crazy.

00:05:40.220 They were the greatest leaders, literally, the greatest leaders in the world.

00:05:45.800 Named by Fortune magazine.

00:05:47.580 The greatest leaders in the world.

00:05:51.000 Well, now the left has decided.

00:05:55.280 I shouldn't say the left.

00:05:56.140 Now, the Democrats are starting to say, these guys are really anti-Semites.

00:06:00.780 They're really, really bad.

00:06:02.280 And why are they saying that?

00:06:03.840 Not because we're saying it.

00:06:05.100 Because we have them on tape saying it, sitting while it's being said, and then defending what was said while they were sitting.

00:06:13.560 It's crazy.

00:06:14.440 It's crazy.

00:06:15.680 So, the whole thing starts to shimmy apart.

00:06:19.420 The Democrats start to run for their lives.

00:06:21.600 And what do the women's march do?

00:06:23.240 They get up and they say more anti-Semitic things.

00:06:27.140 And the media says nothing.

00:06:32.240 Okay, wait a minute.

00:06:34.140 Ben Shapiro saying that the pro-life people have such ethics that they believe that innocence is at birth.

00:06:45.080 That babies are innocent and they shouldn't be killed.

00:06:49.540 And they believe that so much, they wouldn't even kill baby Hitler.

00:06:53.800 That is a normal human being thing to say.

00:06:58.720 That is like how many, you know, crappy sci-fi shows, you know, are on, you know, like, didn't, it's almost like it could be a Star Trek where we've got, oh, my gosh, we found ourselves in a time tunnel.

00:07:14.240 And all of a sudden, we're back in 1939.

00:07:16.640 Doctor Who has done this.

00:07:18.340 Everybody has done this.

00:07:20.120 We don't kill innocent children is always the conclusion.

00:07:28.540 So, the anti-Semites saying anti-Semitic things gets nothing.

00:07:34.520 Ben Shapiro saying non-anti-Semitic things is basically called an anti-Semite for sticking up for babies.

00:07:47.620 Baby Hitler.

00:07:48.340 Un-frickin'-believable.

00:07:52.020 And now, to the number one outrage of the weekend.

00:07:56.480 Oh, yeah.

00:07:59.700 The number one outrage of the weekend has to be the kids from just across the water of Cincinnati.

00:08:10.400 From the Catholic school who are, in my opinion, Martin-frickin'-Luther-King.

00:08:21.980 These kids are amazing kids.

00:08:30.340 What?

00:08:32.080 They were mocking a Native American.

00:08:34.400 No, they weren't.

00:08:35.820 No, they weren't.

00:08:36.900 First of all, this particular Native American has a history of doing these things.

00:08:45.240 These were professionals going up a bunch of kids.

00:08:49.880 And the kids acted admirably.

00:08:54.220 Okay, so let me just give you this.

00:08:55.880 I'm going to give you all of the tape to prove all of these things.

00:08:59.080 First of all, what we have is the picture of the kid looking defiant, sneering at the poor old Vietnam veteran Native American with his drum.

00:09:15.140 All he was doing was playing his drum.

00:09:19.520 And look at the sneer on this face.

00:09:23.500 Well, if you happen to watch all of the videotape, and you could spend about two hours.

00:09:28.800 I spent about 45 minutes watching it.

00:09:32.560 You kind of come back with a different impression.

00:09:35.720 First of all, the Native American walked up to the kid.

00:09:41.480 Okay?

00:09:41.940 The kid wasn't blocking his way.

00:09:44.280 The group of Native Americans walked up to the group of kids, intentionally trying to antagonize them.

00:09:55.260 You don't believe me?

00:09:59.180 Well, let me just give you a couple of things.

00:10:05.720 They were yelling, these are babies made out of incest.

00:10:13.800 The boy ran down the steps.

00:10:18.420 You can't see the angels around us.

00:10:22.900 A black man said, you all have one N-word in the crowd.

00:10:29.600 You're president, homosexuals.

00:10:32.300 These kids, as I will show you with the audio, these kids held their ground.

00:10:41.220 This kid, I watched the entire confrontation with the kid that is now famous, his face.

00:10:46.300 This kid stood there just to say, you don't intimidate me.

00:10:53.280 Because that's what the Native American group was trying to do.

00:10:56.840 They were saying, you don't belong here.

00:10:59.560 Go back to Europe.

00:11:00.960 All of these things.

00:11:02.420 Can you imagine?

00:11:03.420 Go back to Mexico.

00:11:04.980 That's what you were supposed to hear.

00:11:07.040 Gee, build that wall.

00:11:08.580 That wall never happened.

00:11:10.840 Never happened.

00:11:12.500 They weren't chanting that.

00:11:13.880 Instead, the Native Americans were saying to the white kids, go back to Europe.

00:11:20.080 They didn't report that.

00:11:22.160 So, what happened?

00:11:24.520 They marched up.

00:11:26.080 They were trying to get them to swing.

00:11:28.540 And that kid would not swing.

00:11:32.220 He smiled once.

00:11:34.780 Probably because he was in a stare down with an old Native American who was beating a drum.

00:11:40.380 And he had to have thought to himself at one point, this guy's an adult.

00:11:44.100 This is ridiculous.

00:11:45.300 I'm standing on the stand.

00:11:46.320 I'm just here in Washington.

00:11:48.040 I'm just, we're getting ready to go home.

00:11:50.560 And I'm standing here with this guy and all of these people screaming at us.

00:11:56.100 This is crazy.

00:11:57.740 And you hear many on many of the videotapes, people in the crowd going, what the hell is going on?

00:12:03.680 The boys, the Catholic boys going, what is going on?

00:12:08.280 Because they were all of a sudden under attack.

00:12:11.980 I'm going to play the audio when we come back of one of the kids.

00:12:14.980 One of the kids actually engaging because another Native American starts calling him names.

00:12:20.920 And so, he starts using reason.

00:12:24.500 And that's when the boy in the photo breaks.

00:12:29.480 Oh, my gosh.

00:12:30.480 All you had to do was watch about two minutes of tape.

00:12:32.940 But that was too much.

00:12:34.480 Too much for the mainstream media to do.

00:12:38.680 These kids are Martin Luther King.

00:12:40.220 And do we need to remind you who he was?

00:12:44.980 The best of the Glenn Beck Program.

00:12:53.380 Yeah, you know it's Martin Luther King Day today.

00:12:56.060 Yeah.

00:12:57.340 You know that the press is going to just twist what you say.

00:13:02.000 And, nah, I don't think they care anymore.

00:13:04.600 I really don't.

00:13:06.520 I think they like the idea of these kids who have been vilified by the country as essentially white supremacists with no evidence of it.

00:13:14.500 No evidence whatsoever.

00:13:15.600 The idea that you're going to say that they had similar characteristics in some ways to Martin Luther King is on Martin Luther King Day.

00:13:23.520 Well, I don't even think the press even knows who Martin Luther King is anymore.

00:13:27.000 I mean, he's not radical enough for people now.

00:13:29.360 Martin Luther King is being distanced from all of the, you know, the big civil rights groups.

00:13:35.320 Now, only when it's convenient for them do they use it.

00:13:38.840 Martin Luther King wouldn't be a part of Antifa.

00:13:41.160 No way.

00:13:41.660 No.

00:13:42.380 Martin Luther King wouldn't be a part of really, he wouldn't be a part of the Women's March.

00:13:47.060 Maybe at the beginning he would have been, okay, let's, you know, gather together.

00:13:52.280 It seemed like a peaceful march.

00:13:54.220 But he probably would have done his homework and saw who was involved and went, ah, no, they seem to be racists.

00:14:00.880 And I don't think we want to stand with racists.

00:14:03.820 He wouldn't be standing with them now.

00:14:05.640 Would he be at the March for Life?

00:14:07.120 We don't know.

00:14:07.660 But I know Alveda King says that he actually was pro-life, right?

00:14:11.000 I mean, didn't, isn't that?

00:14:11.860 He was also, dare I say it, oh, dare I say it, on Martin Luther King Day?

00:14:15.180 Yes, I dare.

00:14:16.280 Also pro-gun.

00:14:17.580 Oh, my gosh.

00:14:18.240 Yeah.

00:14:18.720 Yeah.

00:14:19.060 You know what?

00:14:19.720 You know what's crazy?

00:14:21.480 Because gun laws for African Americans and Native Americans.

00:14:25.380 Common sense gun control laws.

00:14:27.040 Common sense gun control laws.

00:14:28.660 They were always in effect in the South for African Americans.

00:14:33.880 Yeah, common sense.

00:14:34.360 We don't want African Americans to have guns.

00:14:36.180 Of course not.

00:14:36.500 Of course not.

00:14:37.160 You know why?

00:14:37.920 You know why?

00:14:38.400 This is why they told Martin Luther King you couldn't have a gun.

00:14:40.400 Because he went in and he said, hey, I need to get a permit to carry a gun.

00:14:44.000 And they said, no, no, no.

00:14:45.460 That'll make it more dangerous for you.

00:14:47.280 For you.

00:14:47.720 We're doing it for you.

00:14:49.820 Just like they're protecting us with their gun control measures of today.

00:14:52.920 We can't understand how to handle these big, black, metal, scary things that we hold

00:14:57.400 and make loud booms.

00:14:58.360 We can't do that ourselves.

00:14:59.560 We're doing this for your own good.

00:15:02.080 You can't carry a gun, Mr. King.

00:15:05.180 So, you know, he's not exactly the guy that everybody portrays him.

00:15:08.460 And he wasn't a saint either.

00:15:09.680 I mean, he was a normal guy.

00:15:11.880 None of our heroes of the past are perfect.

00:15:15.840 He wasn't a saint.

00:15:17.940 Towards the end, he was hanging around a lot of communists.

00:15:22.060 You know, whether that's where he would have ended up or not, I don't know.

00:15:26.320 But here's why we know him.

00:15:29.400 Not because we're like, you know, I support Martin Luther King because he was for philandering.

00:15:35.480 No, we like him because of his idea that you peacefully protest.

00:15:44.520 Oh, I like Martin Luther King because he was a communist.

00:15:47.920 No, no.

00:15:49.280 We like Martin Luther King and he has a day because he taught America how to protest peacefully.

00:15:56.340 And that's exactly what happened this weekend.

00:15:59.940 But maybe we should look back and have a refresher on Martin Luther King.

00:16:05.740 We will be able to speed up that day when all of God's children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics,

00:16:28.280 will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual, free at last, free at last.

00:16:36.780 Thank God Almighty, we are free at last.

00:16:39.360 Now is the time to rise from the dark and desolate valley of segregation to the sunlit path of racial justice.

00:16:49.460 Now is the time to lift our nation from the quicksands of racial injustice to the solid rock of brotherhood.

00:17:00.900 Now is the time to make justice a reality for all of God's children.

00:17:05.960 Dr. Martin Luther King has been shot and wounded, possibly critically wounded, in Memphis, Tennessee this evening.

00:17:33.740 Dr. Martin Luther King, the apostle of nonviolence in the civil rights movement, has been shot to death in Memphis, Tennessee.

00:17:41.160 ...all points bulletin for a well-dressed young white man seen running from the scene.

00:17:47.240 For centuries, man's freedom has been crushed, contained, or at best discouraged, and sometimes in subtle ways.

00:17:58.500 In the days of Solomon, he decried that man could learn too much,

00:18:04.820 that one shouldn't dig too deeply nor read too often,

00:18:08.380 saying that too much reading led to the weariness of the flesh,

00:18:12.760 that the search for knowledge is where Adam and Eve went wrong,

00:18:16.960 thus proving that learning leads to man's downfall or his sin.

00:18:21.620 St. Paul, centuries later, said basically the same thing.

00:18:28.640 In 1500, Francis Bacon wrote to the king trying to convince him that man could never learn too much,

00:18:35.520 that knowledge could not somehow also contain the serpent.

00:18:39.580 Yet free thought continued to be squashed.

00:18:42.540 Immanuel Kant, the man who first described the Milky Way as a collection of suns in the fashion that we now know it,

00:18:51.200 wrote in 1760,

00:18:53.360 There are many things that I believe that I shall never say,

00:18:56.940 but I shall never say the things that I do not believe.

00:19:02.040 The Courage to Speak One's Mind

00:19:04.760 In 1760, our most precious freedom, the freedom of thought, had not yet been born.

00:19:14.680 Yet, just a few years later, on the other side of the globe,

00:19:19.120 sat a man alone in a hotel room,

00:19:22.080 his wife dying in bed hundreds of miles away from him.

00:19:25.460 As he scratched words on paper,

00:19:27.900 I'm not sure if we really understand the impact of those words.

00:19:57.900 Man has never been as free to think as man is now.

00:20:03.160 The Chinese dissidents didn't make a Statue of Liberty in Tiananmen Square out of happenstance.

00:20:09.400 Americans changed the world.

00:20:12.500 Our freedom of thought allowed men to discover electricity,

00:20:15.900 the light bulb, the car, the phone, the motion picture, the radio, the television, the computer,

00:20:21.040 to put a man on the moon.

00:20:22.360 Which of these men will be first to orbit the Earth?

00:20:26.100 I cannot tell you.

00:20:27.200 And a spacecraft on Mars.

00:20:29.140 Touchdown confirmed.

00:20:30.100 We're safe on Mars.

00:20:31.860 It was in the American century that the theory of relativity was conceived,

00:20:36.900 leading Einstein to say,

00:20:38.600 The thing that strikes me about America is the joyous, positive attitude to life.

00:20:45.560 The smile on the faces of the people is one of the greatest assets of the American.

00:20:50.500 He's friendly, self-confident, optimistic, and without envy.

00:20:55.500 The American lives more for his goals, for the future.

00:20:59.080 Life for him is always becoming, never being.

00:21:06.540 His emphasis is laid on the we and never the I.

00:21:11.120 So today, as we are free to celebrate, relax, think, read, say anything,

00:21:20.120 ask yourself this, are we still more about the goals for the future?

00:21:25.180 Is life for us always about becoming and never being?

00:21:31.000 And are we still part of the we and not the I?

00:21:35.120 You know, when Jefferson first wrote those words,

00:21:40.220 they were words of treason and certain execution.

00:21:43.540 But today, they are free to echo throughout the land

00:21:48.000 as words of the American spirit and our hope

00:21:51.320 that we do hold these truths to be self-evident,

00:21:55.720 that all men are created equal

00:21:58.220 and endowed by their creator with certain inalienable rights,

00:22:02.520 and among them life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

00:22:07.380 And in support of this declaration,

00:22:09.720 with firm reliance on the protection of divine providence,

00:22:15.020 we mutually pledge to each other our lives,

00:22:19.240 our fortunes, and our sacred honor.

00:22:23.640 Our founders changed the world with those few words.

00:22:28.880 And over 200 years later,

00:22:31.000 a black preacher from the South,

00:22:34.180 Dr. Martin Luther King,

00:22:36.100 helped make sure that the promise of liberty

00:22:38.640 was real for all Americans.

00:22:43.120 Free at last.

00:22:44.380 Free at last.

00:22:45.720 Free at last.

00:22:47.060 Free at last.

00:22:53.820 We are free at last.

00:24:24.300 We were just talking about Abraham Lincoln,

00:24:25.600 and I sent some guys up to the vault

00:24:27.780 to get this really rare

00:24:30.700 and controversial photograph

00:24:33.160 of Abraham Lincoln.

00:24:36.300 And I think that it looks,

00:24:39.360 Abraham Lincoln looks like Kramer on Seinfeld.

00:24:43.320 That's not why it's controversial,

00:24:44.860 but doesn't he?

00:24:46.500 It totally does, yeah.

00:24:47.780 And you do have a picture of it

00:24:48.780 side by side by any chance?

00:24:50.160 Grab a picture of Kramer

00:24:52.820 and grab this picture of Abraham Lincoln.

00:24:55.600 This picture was taken on July 4th, 1856.

00:25:02.280 Any idea why that is an important date?

00:25:09.700 I don't know.

00:25:11.780 They grabbed him just before he walked up

00:25:16.580 onto the podium for the Lincoln-Douglas debates.

00:25:21.000 Oh, wow.

00:25:21.660 This is the Abraham Lincoln

00:25:23.220 that gave that debate.

00:25:25.600 And he won.

00:25:27.300 I mean, looking like this,

00:25:29.020 he won.

00:25:30.620 A little different than the classic photos

00:25:32.840 you'd think of when you think of Abraham Lincoln.

00:25:35.040 Yeah, isn't that nuts?

00:25:36.000 That one's not going on the $5 bill.

00:25:38.100 No, that's not even going on the $3 bill.

00:25:40.720 That's just a bad-looking picture of Abraham Lincoln.

00:25:42.900 You know Abraham Lincoln was in a bad mood

00:25:49.580 if you ever see him with his hair combed.

00:25:54.700 Any picture where his hair is in place,

00:25:57.720 it's because he was pissed off.

00:26:00.100 Really?

00:26:00.580 Yes.

00:26:01.020 His way of taking out his anger was on his hair?

00:26:03.920 No.

00:26:05.160 He would sit for a photo,

00:26:07.940 and they would say,

00:26:09.060 Mr. President, we'd just like to comb your hair.

00:26:12.220 Mr. Lincoln, could we just comb your hair?

00:26:14.020 And he'd say,

00:26:15.220 no, no, I like it this way.

00:26:17.200 And they would say,

00:26:18.020 no, Mr. Lincoln,

00:26:18.860 we really need you to comb your hair.

00:26:21.300 No, I like it this way.

00:26:23.020 Mr. Lincoln, please.

00:26:24.620 Okay, go ahead, comb it.

00:26:26.120 And as they'd finish,

00:26:27.380 and they'd get right to the camera,

00:26:29.320 ready to take the shot,

00:26:30.580 he'd run his hands through his hair

00:26:32.120 and mess it up again and do it right.

00:26:33.620 And he's like,

00:26:34.040 go ahead, take the picture now.

00:26:35.960 And they would all laugh,

00:26:36.960 and they would take the picture.

00:26:38.420 A few times,

00:26:40.120 they were like,

00:26:41.440 no, Mr. President,

00:26:42.400 and he was pissed.

00:26:44.120 He did not like pictures

00:26:46.860 making him look all fancy.

00:26:50.220 Fancy in his term was

00:26:52.480 with my hair combed

00:26:53.860 because he never combed his hair.

00:26:55.900 That's not what he looked like.

00:26:57.480 He looked like,

00:26:58.920 more like this,

00:27:00.120 he looked like

00:27:01.100 he was disheveled all the time.

00:27:04.820 Here's the side-by-side.

00:27:06.140 Look at that.

00:27:06.680 That is a Kramer haircut.

00:27:08.780 That is the original Kramer.

00:27:11.320 Look at that.

00:27:11.660 The nose is even the same.

00:27:14.300 Wouldn't it be cool

00:27:14.860 if Abraham Lincoln

00:27:15.560 walked into rooms like Kramer?

00:27:17.320 Just kind of slid into rooms?

00:27:18.800 Whoa.

00:27:19.260 All right, I say we free the slaves.

00:27:21.160 What do you think?

00:27:21.860 Oh, my gosh.

00:27:22.460 Someone should remake

00:27:23.800 in Seinfeld style

00:27:26.100 elements of the Lincoln presidency.

00:27:29.420 That would be incredible.

00:27:30.980 If we just knew somebody

00:27:32.360 who had a movie studio.

00:27:36.100 I would love that.

00:27:37.540 That would be great.

00:27:38.420 Like, you know,

00:27:39.680 the wife could be Elaine

00:27:41.680 coming in.

00:27:43.020 Wouldn't that be funny?

00:27:43.400 Imagine the characters

00:27:44.340 that you could have in that.

00:27:45.340 And he would be like,

00:27:46.480 we should free the slaves.

00:27:47.560 And like Elaine used to always do,

00:27:49.300 she'd come up to him,

00:27:50.160 push him.

00:27:50.660 Yeah.

00:27:51.320 Stop it!

00:27:52.940 That's a great idea.

00:27:57.780 This is Hamilton 2.

00:27:59.720 The money's there.

00:28:01.060 People want to see

00:28:02.080 re-written history.

00:28:03.660 You just do

00:28:04.940 Kramer is Lincoln.

00:28:07.100 And you get the old

00:28:08.360 cast back from Seinfeld.

00:28:09.960 Oh, my gosh.

00:28:10.460 This is brilliant.

00:28:11.620 Lin-Manuel Miranda

00:28:13.200 should be coming in

00:28:14.040 and doing this.

00:28:14.640 That is really good.

00:28:15.580 I don't know what that

00:28:16.220 history would look like.

00:28:16.980 But that is a

00:28:17.680 billion-dollar musical

00:28:19.160 for you right there.

00:28:19.880 That is fantastic.

00:28:21.380 What happened to Kramer?

00:28:22.460 Did anybody know?

00:28:23.320 I mean, I know he went off

00:28:24.260 on like a racist rant

00:28:25.660 at one point.

00:28:26.220 There was an issue

00:28:26.940 at a comedy club.

00:28:28.520 Yes, where he was.

00:28:29.360 I mean, think about that.

00:28:30.320 That was a bad one.

00:28:31.040 One of the earliest

00:28:32.000 sort of YouTube moments

00:28:34.040 that affected somebody's career

00:28:35.360 that I can think of.

00:28:36.500 Yeah, he went in.

00:28:37.140 I mean, it was a

00:28:38.000 very bad moment

00:28:39.160 as he's admitted

00:28:40.000 many times since.

00:28:40.920 He was being taunted

00:28:42.040 by someone in the crowd

00:28:43.240 who happened to be

00:28:44.260 African-American

00:28:44.900 and he was looking for a way

00:28:45.880 to get under his skin

00:28:46.600 and decided to use words

00:28:47.660 you do not use

00:28:48.380 in that fashion.

00:28:50.900 He is...

00:28:51.500 I would say he's made...

00:28:52.640 He's actually recovered

00:28:53.920 from that at some point

00:28:54.820 with a gigantic assist

00:28:57.000 to Jerry Seinfeld

00:28:57.900 who has so much credibility

00:29:00.260 with everybody

00:29:00.840 and he kept going on the air

00:29:02.240 and saying,

00:29:02.600 look, you know,

00:29:03.100 he's put him on

00:29:03.900 as big appearances.

00:29:04.920 He's put him back

00:29:05.440 in shows that he's done.

00:29:07.080 He was on

00:29:07.880 Curb Your Enthusiasm

00:29:08.880 a few times.

00:29:09.400 He's come back

00:29:10.240 at some level

00:29:11.700 from that.

00:29:12.600 He is funny.

00:29:13.200 He is funny.

00:29:13.660 We're watching Seinfeld

00:29:14.640 with the kids

00:29:15.200 now, you know.

00:29:17.280 We finished watching Cosby

00:29:19.540 and so they have their

00:29:21.200 fill of a pedophile.

00:29:23.380 And now you're going

00:29:23.840 into the racists.

00:29:24.520 Yeah, now we're going

00:29:25.060 into the racists.

00:29:25.660 No, so we're watching

00:29:26.820 Seinfeld

00:29:27.780 and it's

00:29:29.880 a lot funnier.

00:29:32.600 I mean,

00:29:32.740 I've always thought

00:29:33.320 it was funny.

00:29:33.840 It's a lot funnier

00:29:34.980 than I remember.

00:29:37.880 They're absolutely

00:29:39.060 dislikable.

00:29:39.800 I mean,

00:29:40.220 you got that

00:29:41.340 the first time around,

00:29:42.520 but they really

00:29:44.500 are all so

00:29:45.560 shallow and dislikable,

00:29:47.120 which is the first

00:29:48.620 time a sitcom

00:29:49.420 was like that.

00:29:51.020 There was no sitcoms

00:29:52.400 before that

00:29:52.920 had the entire cast

00:29:54.880 except for the crazy

00:29:55.620 neighbor unlikable.

00:29:57.500 Right.

00:29:57.780 Kramer is likable.

00:30:00.020 Yeah.

00:30:00.460 In a crazy sort of way.

00:30:01.620 In a crazy way.

00:30:01.920 He's the guy

00:30:02.580 who is always like,

00:30:03.300 no, that's not right.

00:30:04.880 You know?

00:30:05.740 Yeah.

00:30:06.020 He's also, you know,

00:30:06.820 insane.

00:30:07.340 Yeah, he's insane.

00:30:08.140 But yeah, you're right.

00:30:08.980 I saw an episode, though.

00:30:11.300 Do you remember

00:30:11.760 the Indian cigar episode?

00:30:16.080 Yeah.

00:30:16.700 Go back and watch that now.

00:30:20.360 It's un-frickin'-believable.

00:30:22.700 Well, do you remember

00:30:23.320 we did this

00:30:24.020 a couple weeks ago?

00:30:25.780 There's a new list

00:30:26.860 of the 10 Seinfeld episodes

00:30:28.800 that are no longer

00:30:30.200 the worst moments.

00:30:31.600 Oh, I must have been here.

00:30:32.020 Maybe that was when

00:30:33.160 Pat was here.

00:30:33.820 Yeah.

00:30:34.160 And it was,

00:30:34.760 I can't remember

00:30:35.120 what the other controversy was.

00:30:36.340 There was another, like,

00:30:37.380 old TV show controversy.

00:30:38.840 And we went over this list.

00:30:40.360 And these moments,

00:30:41.860 you know,

00:30:42.260 there's a lot of them

00:30:43.540 in that show

00:30:44.020 that couldn't be made today.

00:30:45.500 I mean, even going back

00:30:46.740 to more recent history

00:30:47.640 of The Office,

00:30:48.860 Steve Carell said

00:30:49.740 in an interview,

00:30:50.260 you couldn't make

00:30:51.200 that show today.

00:30:52.440 There was an article out.

00:30:53.300 Unbelievable.

00:30:53.760 There was an article out

00:30:54.560 yesterday or today

00:30:55.360 about how stand-up comedy

00:30:57.520 is dead.

00:30:58.580 And I'm like,

00:30:58.940 no, it's really not.

00:31:00.060 It's not dead.

00:31:00.800 It's just dead

00:31:01.480 for this generation.

00:31:02.620 No, I mean...

00:31:03.340 Because you can't,

00:31:04.160 because nobody can take a joke.

00:31:05.180 Like, it will...

00:31:06.180 With, what was it?

00:31:08.100 With terror and slaughter return?

00:31:10.200 The gods of the copybook headings

00:31:11.540 are coming back.

00:31:12.340 And so stand-up comedy

00:31:13.380 will come back.

00:31:14.340 It's just going to be

00:31:14.960 after a nasty episode here.

00:31:17.080 It's interesting you say that.

00:31:18.380 The Louis C.K. thing

00:31:19.540 recently has had me

00:31:20.920 thinking about this a lot

00:31:21.700 because he had this

00:31:22.780 apparently terrible moment

00:31:25.200 where he was, you know,

00:31:26.780 bashing the Parkland victims.

00:31:28.340 And he was saying that,

00:31:29.840 you know,

00:31:30.840 he was saying that

00:31:32.440 it's almost like

00:31:33.040 they're trying to be treated

00:31:33.780 as royalty,

00:31:34.560 these people who are demanding

00:31:35.700 you call them what they say

00:31:37.020 they want to be called.

00:31:38.000 And he was just kind of

00:31:38.600 mocking culture

00:31:39.460 and everyone was bashing him for it.

00:31:42.380 And I happened to hear

00:31:43.620 Jim Norton,

00:31:44.280 who's a, you know,

00:31:45.040 great Canadian

00:31:45.760 and like a, you know,

00:31:47.460 First Amendment hero.

00:31:48.680 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:31:49.240 You know, who's always

00:31:49.700 speaking out for the First Amendment.

00:31:51.060 And he talked about this

00:31:53.320 and his take was

00:31:54.420 it's never going to change.

00:31:56.640 It is never going back.

00:31:59.060 It's never going to go back

00:32:00.200 to a time

00:32:00.760 where people actually

00:32:02.360 took the joke.

00:32:03.480 It's never going to go back

00:32:04.440 to a time where people

00:32:05.320 weren't offended

00:32:06.120 over every single thing.

00:32:07.380 His take was never.

00:32:09.320 And that's depressing

00:32:10.240 because I will.

00:32:11.140 There's a part of me

00:32:11.660 that was optimistic

00:32:12.460 about the idea of social media

00:32:14.480 and all these things

00:32:15.100 and that when we were

00:32:16.060 one of the first sort of

00:32:17.220 targets in this world, right?

00:32:18.660 Like this show

00:32:19.480 would get targeted by,

00:32:21.060 you know, stupid groups

00:32:21.900 like Media Matters

00:32:22.880 and everything.

00:32:23.320 This show used to be funny.

00:32:25.160 Believe it or not,

00:32:25.640 the show used to be funny.

00:32:27.000 I mean, that was our main goal

00:32:28.960 was to be funny every day.

00:32:30.540 Then our main goal

00:32:31.780 was just stay on the air.

00:32:33.860 Well, whether the weather,

00:32:35.280 the storm

00:32:36.000 and we got so attacked

00:32:38.880 from all sides

00:32:40.200 over and over and over again.

00:32:42.140 It was really hard

00:32:43.720 for a long period of time

00:32:45.120 to still say what I believe.

00:32:47.320 Yeah.

00:32:47.720 I mean, you still did it

00:32:48.760 and we had problems

00:32:49.660 from it right constantly.

00:32:50.920 And my take at the time

00:32:52.040 was this was new to people

00:32:53.020 like these company, right?

00:32:54.860 Used to get 10 complaint letters

00:32:57.160 a year, right?

00:32:58.880 And then all of a sudden

00:32:59.720 they get 100 emails in a day

00:33:01.720 about the same thing

00:33:02.660 and in their minds

00:33:03.880 it would turn into,

00:33:05.480 oh my gosh,

00:33:06.240 everyone's,

00:33:07.040 this is worse

00:33:07.660 than we've ever seen before.

00:33:08.960 We have to bail

00:33:10.720 from the sponsor

00:33:11.440 or we have to,

00:33:12.400 you know,

00:33:13.660 we have to,

00:33:14.820 you know,

00:33:15.040 stop advertising on that show

00:33:16.220 or whatever the change was.

00:33:17.560 We have to make a statement

00:33:18.520 to show that we are not

00:33:19.520 on the side of these hateful things,

00:33:20.740 whatever they were.

00:33:21.200 I'm not going to check.

00:33:22.580 And my initial thought on that

00:33:25.420 was people would eventually

00:33:27.300 realize that these are mailing lists,

00:33:30.320 right?

00:33:30.440 This is before social media really.

00:33:31.760 It was more like

00:33:32.140 the mailing lists and emails.

00:33:33.640 And it was like,

00:33:33.960 these are mailing lists.

00:33:34.640 This is just like,

00:33:35.200 it's a dumb activism group

00:33:36.620 that's just,

00:33:37.360 it's,

00:33:37.880 they're fraudulently showing outrage

00:33:40.200 to try to get you

00:33:41.100 to hurt their enemy politically.

00:33:43.360 And I thought eventually

00:33:44.720 companies would be like,

00:33:45.760 oh, I mean,

00:33:46.240 we've seen this a thousand times.

00:33:47.480 This is idiotic.

00:33:48.260 I'm not getting involved in this.

00:33:49.140 You know what?

00:33:49.420 We don't back anybody's show

00:33:51.900 that we advertise on.

00:33:53.400 It's not what we do here.

00:33:54.420 We make pancakes

00:33:55.380 or whatever it is, right?

00:33:57.180 And really it's been the opposite.

00:33:59.260 It's just now everyone

00:34:00.220 folds over everything.

00:34:01.300 The second,

00:34:01.680 and this happens on the left and right.

00:34:03.160 And people just,

00:34:03.700 as soon as there's a complaint

00:34:04.520 about something,

00:34:05.140 look at the school yesterday

00:34:06.140 with the MAGA hat kid.

00:34:07.600 The school that knows

00:34:09.780 these particular children.

00:34:11.900 Their immediate reaction was,

00:34:13.560 we denounce everything

00:34:15.420 they've ever done in their lives.

00:34:17.200 And of course now

00:34:18.180 they're having to back off of this

00:34:19.300 because the video clearly shows

00:34:21.640 that there was no evidence

00:34:23.520 to the claims

00:34:24.020 that they were back kids.

00:34:24.700 No, no, no, let me say it.

00:34:24.880 Let me say it.

00:34:25.360 Just because it's just,

00:34:26.400 it's like lemon juice

00:34:28.520 in an open wound on a leftist.

00:34:31.040 No, Stu.

00:34:31.640 They acted like Martin Luther King.

00:34:34.100 They stood there

00:34:35.380 and they did not yell at them.

00:34:39.340 They did not fire back.

00:34:40.300 They stood there silently

00:34:41.280 and they protested

00:34:44.120 in a restrained way

00:34:46.220 by all the video evidence

00:34:47.760 we have right now.

00:34:48.760 They weren't even protesting.

00:34:50.120 They were standing there.

00:34:51.000 They were standing,

00:34:51.660 waiting for the bus.

00:34:53.440 They were targeted

00:34:54.360 by two professional groups

00:34:56.480 of protesters.

00:34:57.760 Yeah.

00:34:58.080 They were targeted.

00:34:59.660 Those guys on both of those groups,

00:35:02.020 the, what is it,

00:35:03.360 African-American Jews

00:35:04.440 or whatever it is,

00:35:05.760 and the Native American protest group,

00:35:08.520 they've never had

00:35:09.900 this much publicity before.

00:35:12.060 They've never had this,

00:35:12.960 but they were targeted.

00:35:14.060 That group was targeted

00:35:15.220 to do exactly,

00:35:16.800 because they knew

00:35:17.420 what the press would do.

00:35:18.640 And they milked it

00:35:19.240 for everything that it was worth.

00:35:20.600 Absolutely.

00:35:20.780 Lied to the press,

00:35:21.660 said things that happened.

00:35:22.660 And the press doesn't care

00:35:23.660 that they were lied to.

00:35:24.700 They don't seem to be pissed off

00:35:25.600 about it at all.

00:35:26.520 No.

00:35:26.800 And that's the thing,

00:35:27.380 like I have,

00:35:28.900 over this time

00:35:29.560 and going through this,

00:35:30.400 firsthand,

00:35:30.880 we've dealt with this,

00:35:31.580 you know,

00:35:31.780 for now 15, 20 years,

00:35:33.820 and it's like,

00:35:34.360 you get the sense

00:35:35.380 that maybe it is

00:35:36.080 never going to change.

00:35:37.020 Maybe we're at this point

00:35:37.600 where we just won't joke anymore.

00:35:39.000 With terror and slaughter,

00:35:41.080 the gods of the copybook headings

00:35:42.740 will return.

00:35:43.720 Read that poem again.

00:35:44.980 It's going to happen.

00:35:46.420 It's just going to be horrible

00:35:48.020 to get back to it.

00:35:49.840 Let me just finish

00:35:50.740 with telling you the story.

00:35:51.980 In fact,

00:35:52.560 would you write this down?

00:35:54.280 I'm going to the prop storehouse today,

00:35:58.320 or the prop storeroom that I have,

00:35:59.940 and I am picking up

00:36:02.800 the cigar store Indian

00:36:05.060 that I have in storage,

00:36:07.980 and I'm going to put it

00:36:09.760 right there,

00:36:11.880 right behind me,

00:36:12.900 so every day it's sitting there.

00:36:15.820 Anyway,

00:36:18.060 so this episode

00:36:19.760 is so telling

00:36:21.580 and shows where we are

00:36:23.580 and shows the right thing.

00:36:25.980 America was laughing at this,

00:36:28.340 but America was laughing at it

00:36:29.940 because it tells the truth

00:36:31.380 about America.

00:36:32.960 He picks up,

00:36:34.340 remember,

00:36:34.780 he's offended Elaine,

00:36:37.600 I think,

00:36:38.620 and so he's standing,

00:36:40.040 he's trying to get her,

00:36:40.880 he wants to get her something,

00:36:42.000 and he's standing

00:36:42.620 in the cigar store,

00:36:43.940 and he's like,

00:36:44.820 oh, that's great.

00:36:45.720 That's so kitschy.

00:36:46.640 That's cool

00:36:47.220 because it's so kitschy.

00:36:48.660 He's like,

00:36:49.120 I get that.

00:36:49.880 How much is that?

00:36:50.720 And it was like $1,200,

00:36:52.040 which is no way

00:36:53.620 you could buy one now

00:36:54.620 for that,

00:36:55.460 and it's $1,200

00:36:57.160 or something like that,

00:36:58.180 $700,

00:36:58.880 and he picks it up,

00:36:59.660 he wraps it up,

00:37:00.320 and he goes to Ellen's house.

00:37:01.960 They're playing a card game

00:37:04.020 or something.

00:37:04.680 They're doing something

00:37:05.200 as women.

00:37:06.400 One of the women

00:37:07.320 is a Native American,

00:37:09.440 and Seinfeld walks in,

00:37:12.580 and he's like,

00:37:13.780 hello, Judy,

00:37:14.840 or whatever her name is,

00:37:16.420 and there's obviously

00:37:17.200 some chemistry

00:37:18.020 between the two,

00:37:19.900 which you couldn't do now,

00:37:21.760 God forbid,

00:37:22.380 and he says,

00:37:24.980 Ellen,

00:37:25.220 I got you something.

00:37:26.460 I've got you something.

00:37:27.560 Look,

00:37:28.080 and he starts to pull it off

00:37:29.700 and pull off the cloth

00:37:32.500 off the cigar store Indian,

00:37:34.460 and she's like,

00:37:35.660 no, Jerry, don't.

00:37:36.300 No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

00:37:37.660 And he's like,

00:37:38.000 what?

00:37:38.240 This is kitschy.

00:37:38.920 This is fun.

00:37:39.700 Look at this.

00:37:40.260 This is great.

00:37:41.620 He's doing it

00:37:42.320 because it's kitschy

00:37:42.940 and it's fun,

00:37:43.500 and it is.

00:37:44.360 It is.

00:37:44.940 It's a part of history,

00:37:46.040 and so he pulls it off,

00:37:49.140 and he's doing it

00:37:50.040 as a joke for her, okay?

00:37:52.880 It's immediately turned

00:37:53.980 into a racist thing.

00:37:55.940 The Native American gets up,

00:37:57.980 and he tries to apologize

00:37:59.780 and says,

00:38:00.280 I'm sorry.

00:38:00.800 I didn't know,

00:38:02.160 and if that was offensive,

00:38:03.260 I'm really sorry,

00:38:04.220 and then he says,

00:38:06.620 you know,

00:38:07.020 they get back together,

00:38:08.080 and he gives,

00:38:09.100 she gives her something,

00:38:10.700 gives him something,

00:38:11.860 the Native American,

00:38:13.360 and it's the Indian giver thing,

00:38:14.960 and then at the end,

00:38:17.060 there's dating,

00:38:17.780 and he's like,

00:38:18.300 hey, let's just,

00:38:19.440 I made an appointment

00:38:22.880 at a great restaurant,

00:38:24.080 so it shows how he's trying

00:38:26.580 and taking it so far.

00:38:32.380 What's her name?

00:38:33.380 I want to say Ellen,

00:38:34.080 but it's not.

00:38:34.540 Elaine.

00:38:34.840 Elaine.

00:38:34.940 Elaine then says to Kramer,

00:38:38.200 get this out of here.

00:38:39.460 I don't want this.

00:38:40.280 He's like,

00:38:40.600 oh, this is great.

00:38:41.620 This is kitschy.

00:38:42.900 This is great.

00:38:44.060 So he puts it in a cab.

00:38:45.760 As he's trying to find a restaurant

00:38:49.480 that the two of them can go to,

00:38:51.640 Jerry is,

00:38:52.680 he says to a guy

00:38:53.700 who's got his back to him,

00:38:55.320 hey, do you know

00:38:55.940 where a Chinese restaurant is?

00:38:57.520 Postman, Chinese.

00:38:58.820 Why?

00:38:59.060 You think all Chinese people?

00:39:00.360 No.

00:39:01.420 Kramer drives by in the car

00:39:02.980 going,

00:39:03.740 look, Jerry.

00:39:05.560 Right, right.

00:39:06.460 None of it was racist.

00:39:08.200 None of it was racist.

00:39:09.520 But it shows

00:39:10.860 exactly the world

00:39:12.440 we live in now

00:39:13.460 where everything is interpreted

00:39:15.300 protected the future

00:39:16.460 for the worst.

00:39:17.260 Yeah, it did.

00:39:22.660 You're listening to

00:39:23.840 the best of the Glenn Beck program.

00:39:28.200 Okay, so Graham Allen,

00:39:29.700 who has got his own show

00:39:32.180 here on Blaze TV.

00:39:34.020 It's called Rant Nation.

00:39:35.800 He's a former military guy.

00:39:39.520 And he poses with his kids

00:39:41.140 with guns.

00:39:43.000 Oh, my gosh.

00:39:44.160 You would think

00:39:44.940 that he had set the world on fire

00:39:47.360 and poked the eyes out of babies.

00:39:50.940 He got a lot of heat for it

00:39:52.840 this weekend.

00:39:53.580 Graham joins us now.

00:39:54.480 Hello, Graham.

00:39:56.200 Hey, Graham.

00:39:57.000 What's going on, guys?

00:39:58.180 So now,

00:39:58.940 in this picture

00:39:59.820 with you and the kids,

00:40:01.480 were you in the poppy field

00:40:03.180 and you were all

00:40:03.780 trying to go to sleep

00:40:04.800 or where were you exactly?

00:40:08.160 Well,

00:40:08.760 we were,

00:40:09.820 you know,

00:40:10.380 we were in a cotton field

00:40:12.360 that is literally

00:40:13.280 across the street

00:40:14.260 from my house

00:40:15.020 here in rural Mississippi.

00:40:16.580 I had no idea

00:40:17.820 you were so racist.

00:40:19.260 You live across the street

00:40:20.680 from a cotton field?

00:40:23.240 Yeah,

00:40:23.600 I do.

00:40:24.460 And I'm so racist

00:40:25.660 that people

00:40:26.760 obviously don't understand cotton

00:40:28.760 that I miraculously

00:40:29.760 made cotton grow

00:40:30.940 three days ago

00:40:32.260 in the middle of winter.

00:40:33.720 Anyone that knows

00:40:34.680 anything about cotton

00:40:35.600 knows that that picture

00:40:37.060 was obviously taken

00:40:38.500 months ago.

00:40:40.600 Right.

00:40:41.560 So why,

00:40:42.640 why,

00:40:43.560 why the,

00:40:44.820 the controversy here?

00:40:46.640 The guns,

00:40:47.320 the cotton,

00:40:47.960 the children,

00:40:48.760 both,

00:40:49.600 you're all white.

00:40:50.600 I think.

00:40:51.180 The sky is blue.

00:40:52.640 What,

00:40:52.920 what was the problem?

00:40:54.000 I think it was a perfect storm.

00:40:55.020 I think it was a perfect storm.

00:40:56.000 So,

00:40:56.600 so it was in response

00:40:57.720 to the Gillette ad.

00:40:58.760 And,

00:40:59.200 you know,

00:40:59.460 and the left and the right

00:41:00.360 can go back and forth

00:41:01.520 forever on this.

00:41:03.460 You know,

00:41:03.640 it was highly praised

00:41:04.660 by the left.

00:41:05.340 It was highly criticized

00:41:06.220 by the right.

00:41:07.020 I think it's got more dislikes

00:41:08.720 on YouTube

00:41:09.240 than it has likes.

00:41:11.100 And so the left praised it

00:41:12.860 because,

00:41:13.420 you know,

00:41:13.620 it speaks for anti-bullying,

00:41:15.800 anti-sexual predator,

00:41:17.060 et cetera.

00:41:17.660 But the right saw it

00:41:19.480 for what it really was.

00:41:20.600 And what that ad really was,

00:41:22.160 it was this undertone of,

00:41:24.260 it's basically saying

00:41:25.300 that the,

00:41:26.360 that men,

00:41:27.420 current generation men

00:41:29.000 are this problem

00:41:30.580 within our society.

00:41:31.760 And it was aimed

00:41:32.800 towards younger males

00:41:34.900 saying that you basically

00:41:36.220 need to grow up different

00:41:37.580 to save our world

00:41:39.640 from the current generation

00:41:41.320 of men.

00:41:41.760 so I thought

00:41:44.040 what better way to do it

00:41:45.680 than to post

00:41:46.340 with something

00:41:46.820 that I have a very strong feeling.

00:41:48.920 I don't know this for certain,

00:41:50.340 but I have a very strong feeling

00:41:51.440 that the people

00:41:51.940 that made the Gillette ad

00:41:53.000 are probably not pro-gun

00:41:54.820 kind of people.

00:41:56.840 And so I posted the photo

00:41:58.720 and I said,

00:41:59.540 hey, Gillette,

00:42:00.420 does this offend you?

00:42:01.680 If I could go back

00:42:03.240 and change one thing,

00:42:04.740 I would have added

00:42:05.720 just one word

00:42:07.100 and I would have said,

00:42:07.980 does this also offend you?

00:42:10.140 Because the biggest thing

00:42:11.660 was people were like,

00:42:12.680 what in the world

00:42:13.780 does guns have to do

00:42:14.800 with the Gillette ad?

00:42:15.880 Well, technically,

00:42:17.500 nothing.

00:42:18.260 You know,

00:42:18.460 guns didn't have anything,

00:42:19.680 you know,

00:42:19.960 directly to do

00:42:20.920 with the Gillette ad

00:42:21.860 except that gun-loving,

00:42:25.100 Second Amendment-supporting

00:42:26.520 law,

00:42:27.520 gun-law-abiding citizens

00:42:28.900 are frowned upon

00:42:30.340 this day and age

00:42:31.540 by the left

00:42:32.100 as, you know,

00:42:32.840 as the problem.

00:42:34.180 And so that was the,

00:42:35.180 you know,

00:42:35.440 that was the whole reason

00:42:36.460 why I literally

00:42:37.760 just selected,

00:42:38.600 that was one of our

00:42:39.380 family photos.

00:42:40.540 Like,

00:42:40.720 that was part of

00:42:41.520 a whole group of photos

00:42:42.980 that we took months ago,

00:42:44.580 me and my family.

00:42:46.520 Holy cow.

00:42:46.800 And so that's it.

00:42:48.200 You know,

00:42:48.500 people give me

00:42:49.100 a lot more credit

00:42:49.880 for being this racist bigot

00:42:51.700 than I think I deserve

00:42:52.680 because they were like,

00:42:53.640 the racist undertones

00:42:55.080 and the time it took

00:42:56.040 to construct

00:42:56.600 such a subliminal photo,

00:42:59.140 you know,

00:42:59.680 it's staggering.

00:43:00.580 It's amazing how

00:43:02.460 I literally just,

00:43:03.280 yeah.

00:43:03.800 It's amazing how

00:43:04.600 groupthink works.

00:43:06.640 They will,

00:43:07.120 people will do this,

00:43:08.180 people have done this

00:43:09.180 for years

00:43:09.940 and Stu and I

00:43:10.740 always joke about it.

00:43:11.860 They'll come up

00:43:12.460 and they'll say,

00:43:13.640 oh,

00:43:13.880 I was listening

00:43:14.500 to what you were saying

00:43:15.540 in that monologue

00:43:16.380 and I hear what you were saying

00:43:18.300 and you'd be like,

00:43:19.280 oh,

00:43:19.460 thank you very much.

00:43:20.680 No,

00:43:20.880 I get it.

00:43:22.280 Okay,

00:43:22.740 thanks.

00:43:23.420 I mean,

00:43:23.920 I hear what you're saying.

00:43:25.360 What am I,

00:43:25.980 what is it that I'm saying?

00:43:27.800 Yeah,

00:43:28.040 and they will come up

00:43:28.980 with some elaborate thing

00:43:31.200 that,

00:43:31.680 you know,

00:43:31.940 that's what you were really saying

00:43:33.300 and usually we're,

00:43:34.680 by that point,

00:43:35.240 so afraid of that person

00:43:36.260 we just go,

00:43:36.960 right?

00:43:38.000 Yeah,

00:43:38.660 okay.

00:43:39.480 Hey,

00:43:40.020 but let's keep that

00:43:40.900 to ourselves now.

00:43:42.460 Go away.

00:43:43.180 We shouldn't be seen

00:43:44.260 with each other

00:43:45.080 ever again.

00:43:48.180 Well,

00:43:48.720 that,

00:43:49.540 that Glenn

00:43:50.240 and then the other

00:43:51.020 big comment

00:43:51.720 that I saw was,

00:43:52.940 and I wanted to address

00:43:53.980 this just really quick.

00:43:55.020 You know,

00:43:55.180 I do teach my children

00:43:56.880 how to handle

00:43:57.720 and respect firearms

00:43:59.660 because I believe

00:44:00.980 that teaching children

00:44:02.720 at a younger age

00:44:03.780 to understand firearms,

00:44:06.180 you remove the mystique

00:44:07.940 around firearms,

00:44:09.220 you get them comfortable

00:44:10.220 to where they respect it.

00:44:12.600 One of the big things

00:44:13.780 was why is my little girl

00:44:15.280 in the photo

00:44:15.880 not having,

00:44:16.840 why does she not have

00:44:17.840 a weapon?

00:44:19.340 Am I a sexist?

00:44:20.540 You know,

00:44:20.860 is my little girl

00:44:22.500 not allowed to have-

00:44:23.360 Wait,

00:44:23.560 wait,

00:44:23.640 wait,

00:44:23.740 wait,

00:44:23.880 wait,

00:44:24.460 let me look at the,

00:44:25.460 put the picture back up.

00:44:26.880 Because I think I'm right.

00:44:28.600 She's,

00:44:29.120 is she the youngest?

00:44:31.420 Yes,

00:44:31.900 she's the youngest.

00:44:32.380 She's four in this photo.

00:44:33.980 Right.

00:44:34.480 I wouldn't let a four-year-old

00:44:35.900 grab the gun either.

00:44:37.520 How old is your son?

00:44:39.100 How old is his son?

00:44:40.280 Five?

00:44:41.340 Seven and eight.

00:44:42.280 Seven and eight

00:44:42.800 are my two boys.

00:44:44.520 Oh my God.

00:44:44.980 And so,

00:44:45.640 and so the purpose

00:44:46.760 of the photo,

00:44:47.380 one,

00:44:47.940 to just add the reality

00:44:49.060 of it is

00:44:49.540 I only had three guns

00:44:51.100 in the truck

00:44:51.880 when we drove

00:44:53.800 across the street.

00:44:55.300 So,

00:44:55.480 so,

00:44:55.800 and then the,

00:44:56.500 you know,

00:44:56.620 the purpose of the photo

00:44:57.900 was kind of that,

00:44:59.420 you know,

00:44:59.780 that stereotypical Southern,

00:45:01.560 you know,

00:45:01.840 men protecting,

00:45:03.120 you know,

00:45:03.480 you know,

00:45:03.760 the women that they cherish

00:45:04.840 in their,

00:45:05.380 you know,

00:45:05.560 in their life and stuff.

00:45:06.440 But also,

00:45:07.260 my little girl,

00:45:09.280 we don't let her

00:45:10.180 just handle rifles yet

00:45:11.420 because she's just not there.

00:45:12.980 She's just not there yet

00:45:14.080 as far as being

00:45:15.620 truly comfortable

00:45:16.280 with the rifle.

00:45:17.080 By the way,

00:45:17.700 none of those weapons

00:45:18.520 were loaded.

00:45:19.560 Obviously,

00:45:20.140 you know,

00:45:20.320 my kids just don't

00:45:21.120 walk around

00:45:21.860 with rifles,

00:45:23.080 you know,

00:45:23.280 they're all locked up

00:45:24.180 all the time.

00:45:24.960 Graham,

00:45:25.600 Graham,

00:45:25.800 you're on the Glenn Beck show,

00:45:27.480 not like Stephen Colbert.

00:45:29.060 You don't have to say that.

00:45:30.060 I mean,

00:45:30.300 we know that.

00:45:31.860 We know that.

00:45:32.860 You're right.

00:45:33.360 But anyway,

00:45:34.380 so that's the reality of it.

00:45:35.640 My little girl

00:45:36.100 didn't have a rifle

00:45:36.880 because she was four

00:45:38.260 at the time

00:45:39.280 that that picture was taken.

00:45:41.320 That is incredible.

00:45:42.420 Graham,

00:45:42.680 it's interesting to watch this

00:45:43.760 because,

00:45:44.120 you know,

00:45:44.700 you're tired of the Gillette thing

00:45:45.620 I think makes a lot of sense to me

00:45:46.760 because,

00:45:47.100 I mean,

00:45:47.260 toxic masculinity,

00:45:48.560 they would talk about

00:45:49.780 firearm usage

00:45:50.980 as an example of that,

00:45:52.460 right?

00:45:52.880 Yes,

00:45:53.080 I mean,

00:45:53.220 it really does tie in

00:45:54.440 in a roundabout sort of way.

00:45:56.080 Especially Southerners with guns.

00:45:58.260 Yeah,

00:45:58.460 right,

00:45:58.720 right.

00:45:59.580 It's interesting though

00:46:00.460 because I grew up in Connecticut.

00:46:02.320 It was not a gun culture at all.

00:46:04.320 And I think there's a lot of people

00:46:05.680 around the country

00:46:06.200 who look at kids handling guns

00:46:08.320 and think only the worst,

00:46:10.100 right?

00:46:10.220 Like the only thing,

00:46:11.060 the only experience

00:46:11.740 they would ever have

00:46:12.540 with a kid holding a gun

00:46:14.420 is a terrible story in the news

00:46:16.140 where,

00:46:16.580 you know,

00:46:17.160 a parent didn't have their gun

00:46:18.760 put away properly

00:46:19.660 and it was loaded

00:46:20.720 and the kid got a handle of it

00:46:22.040 and that's the terrible news

00:46:23.340 at 11 moment for them.

00:46:25.020 I mean,

00:46:25.320 the gap in understanding

00:46:27.240 gun culture is so wide.

00:46:28.920 How do you,

00:46:29.360 how do you,

00:46:29.820 how do you feel it?

00:46:32.500 Well,

00:46:33.140 I mean,

00:46:33.700 I think that the Southern culture

00:46:35.420 in general

00:46:36.000 is doing a good job.

00:46:37.540 I mean,

00:46:37.680 I can only speak for,

00:46:39.860 people can only truly speak

00:46:41.360 for their own,

00:46:42.380 you know,

00:46:43.080 upbringings

00:46:43.640 and their own personal influences

00:46:46.980 and events in their life.

00:46:48.160 The entire culture of people

00:46:49.860 that I associate with,

00:46:51.400 my family,

00:46:52.660 my children,

00:46:54.080 gun culture

00:46:55.020 is just this way of life.

00:46:56.960 We go hunting

00:46:57.720 literally just about every day

00:46:59.720 during hunting season

00:47:00.640 and it's not for trophy or sport,

00:47:02.380 it's to teach our children,

00:47:03.980 you know,

00:47:04.220 hey,

00:47:04.500 we shot this deer

00:47:05.580 because this deer

00:47:06.780 provides food

00:47:08.860 for our family.

00:47:09.800 That is the reason

00:47:10.420 that we go out

00:47:11.020 and do this.

00:47:11.700 Hey,

00:47:12.400 a gun is for hunting

00:47:14.200 or self-defense purposes.

00:47:15.980 It's not to go out

00:47:16.820 and showboat

00:47:18.140 and everything like that.

00:47:19.100 I think the Southern culture

00:47:20.120 does a good job.

00:47:21.660 We're just,

00:47:22.300 we're just demonized for it.

00:47:24.420 so here's the thing.

00:47:25.580 You know who's not demonized

00:47:27.000 that could very easily

00:47:28.180 be demonized

00:47:29.000 and I tweeted this

00:47:30.080 about you

00:47:30.820 earlier today.

00:47:32.820 Hey,

00:47:33.380 New Yorkers,

00:47:34.960 you let your,

00:47:35.620 you let your 13-year-old

00:47:37.000 get onto a subway

00:47:37.920 by themselves

00:47:38.700 to go to school?

00:47:40.160 Yes,

00:47:40.640 many do.

00:47:41.700 Do you just drop

00:47:42.780 your seven

00:47:44.540 or eight-year-old

00:47:45.440 off on the corner

00:47:46.640 even though your school

00:47:47.780 is like,

00:47:49.340 you know,

00:47:49.860 50 feet away?

00:47:51.460 Are you kidding me?

00:47:52.640 There's a lot of people

00:47:53.900 who live in the center

00:47:55.100 of the country

00:47:55.700 that would go,

00:47:56.520 wait,

00:47:56.780 wait,

00:47:57.040 wait,

00:47:57.400 you let your 13-year-old

00:47:59.120 on the subway

00:47:59.900 of New York?

00:48:00.920 Are you crazy?

00:48:02.100 Oh,

00:48:02.320 yeah.

00:48:02.640 No,

00:48:03.000 it's not crazy.

00:48:04.300 Yeah,

00:48:04.640 yeah,

00:48:04.900 nobody would do that.

00:48:06.300 Right,

00:48:06.420 but if you live

00:48:07.680 in New York

00:48:08.580 and you've raised

00:48:09.840 your kids

00:48:10.500 to be New Yorkers,

00:48:11.780 it's not crazy.

00:48:13.460 It's not,

00:48:14.280 it's very easy

00:48:15.400 to avoid bad things

00:48:17.500 in New York.

00:48:18.440 If you know

00:48:19.420 where you are,

00:48:20.200 you have your wits

00:48:21.040 around you.

00:48:21.580 The easiest way

00:48:22.500 to be victimized

00:48:23.200 in New York,

00:48:24.140 walk around

00:48:24.760 with a map.

00:48:26.260 You walk around

00:48:27.340 with a tourist map,

00:48:28.680 you are a target.

00:48:30.040 A 13-year-old kid

00:48:31.900 who knows exactly

00:48:33.000 what they're doing

00:48:33.680 on the subway,

00:48:34.560 knows exactly

00:48:35.420 what they're doing

00:48:36.100 on the streets,

00:48:36.960 that is not the victim.

00:48:38.900 The tourist is the victim.

00:48:41.880 Yeah,

00:48:42.560 exactly,

00:48:43.600 and I would think

00:48:44.860 that the biggest,

00:48:45.940 to me,

00:48:46.520 the biggest issues

00:48:47.380 that we have now

00:48:48.440 and why gun culture

00:48:49.660 and why the Gillette ad

00:48:50.820 was so controversial

00:48:51.780 is I think

00:48:53.560 that we have,

00:48:54.660 it's not a gun problem,

00:48:57.180 it's not a,

00:48:57.760 we don't really have

00:48:58.940 this,

00:48:59.280 there's not

00:49:00.840 the vast majority

00:49:01.720 of men walking around

00:49:03.080 raping and pillaging

00:49:04.700 through villages

00:49:05.440 that people like

00:49:07.120 to portray

00:49:08.180 that's going on.

00:49:09.760 The vast majority,

00:49:11.680 99% of men

00:49:13.960 are anti-bullying,

00:49:15.820 we're anti-inequality,

00:49:17.560 we're anti-sexual harassment

00:49:19.160 or assault.

00:49:20.440 Who are you really

00:49:21.420 talking to?

00:49:23.040 And I think

00:49:24.020 that's what

00:49:24.620 the vast majority

00:49:25.580 of conservatives

00:49:26.960 and the vast majority

00:49:28.380 of real men

00:49:30.000 took offense

00:49:30.960 to that ad.

00:49:32.020 Nobody is against

00:49:33.440 being kind

00:49:34.800 to people.

00:49:35.400 Nobody is against

00:49:36.120 that.

00:49:36.380 We're against

00:49:36.980 this undertone

00:49:39.080 that people are creating

00:49:40.380 that men

00:49:42.220 are a problem

00:49:43.660 in society.

00:49:44.720 And I think

00:49:45.360 that's why

00:49:46.040 we all got upset.

00:49:46.800 So Graham,

00:49:47.920 by the way,

00:49:48.480 you can catch

00:49:49.480 Graham on

00:49:50.280 Blaze TV.

00:50:02.060 or 10% off.

00:50:03.080 I don't know,

00:50:03.660 it's the same thing,

00:50:04.240 it's 100 bucks a year.

00:50:05.320 You subscribe for a year,

00:50:12.220 slash Beck

00:50:13.360 and see him.

00:50:14.600 Graham,

00:50:14.840 I think this all

00:50:15.620 can be summarized

00:50:16.500 with this.

00:50:17.500 You said,

00:50:18.400 Gillette wanted

00:50:19.000 to make a commercial

00:50:19.820 that said,

00:50:20.880 you guys,

00:50:21.720 men,

00:50:22.240 you got to grow up

00:50:23.340 to be different

00:50:24.740 than blah,

00:50:25.700 blah,

00:50:25.840 blah.

00:50:26.320 I think the message

00:50:27.880 that men will accept

00:50:29.320 is boys,

00:50:31.900 you need to grow up

00:50:33.900 because men

00:50:35.740 are different

00:50:37.040 than boys.

00:50:37.800 All the things

00:50:38.660 that everybody

00:50:39.200 is excusing

00:50:40.680 is boy behavior,

00:50:42.580 not a behavior

00:50:44.460 of a man

00:50:45.360 and men

00:50:47.240 understand that.

00:50:48.640 Thanks.

00:50:51.740 This is the best

00:50:52.920 of the Glenn Beck program.

00:51:04.220 I'm a little disturbed

00:51:05.420 here reading this article

00:51:06.500 about Graham Allen.

00:51:07.460 The last line said,

00:51:08.620 Graham Allen

00:51:09.080 did not return

00:51:10.220 Yahoo Lifestyle's

00:51:11.420 request for comment.

00:51:12.260 Shut up.

00:51:13.380 I mean,

00:51:13.640 if you're not going

00:51:14.040 to respond to

00:51:14.640 Yahoo Lifestyle,

00:51:15.580 I don't want to have

00:51:16.080 any dealings

00:51:17.020 with you whatsoever.

00:51:18.040 If Yahoo Lifestyle

00:51:19.280 asks,

00:51:19.920 you answer,

00:51:20.560 Graham.

00:51:20.840 Oh my gosh.

00:51:21.900 Oh my gosh.

00:51:22.880 And I hope Ben Shapiro

00:51:23.560 knows this too

00:51:24.100 because Yahoo Lifestyle

00:51:24.800 may have reached out

00:51:25.480 for comment from him too.

00:51:26.580 Can we play

00:51:27.120 the Ben Shapiro audio?

00:51:28.720 This is what

00:51:29.440 got Ben Shapiro

00:51:31.200 basically called

00:51:33.620 an anti-Semite.

00:51:34.720 He's Jewish,

00:51:35.360 by the way.

00:51:36.000 Shapiro.

00:51:36.740 Listen.

00:51:37.300 Finally,

00:51:38.040 argument number 10.

00:51:39.140 This one has become

00:51:39.660 popular in recent years

00:51:40.760 after the book

00:51:41.460 Freakonomics

00:51:42.060 came out.

00:51:42.980 That argument

00:51:43.380 is that abortion

00:51:43.980 lowers the crime rate.

00:51:45.780 That what has lowered

00:51:47.620 the crime rate

00:51:48.160 traditionally has been

00:51:49.060 killing all the

00:51:49.640 would-be criminals.

00:51:50.760 First of all,

00:51:52.060 I don't know

00:51:53.260 who's comfortable

00:51:53.760 with the pre-crime

00:51:55.300 version of humanity

00:51:56.480 where we get to decide

00:51:57.300 before you're born

00:51:58.220 whether you're likely

00:51:58.760 to be a criminal

00:51:59.260 and then abort you

00:51:59.960 based on future

00:52:00.620 criminal activity

00:52:01.400 in which you have

00:52:02.180 not participated.

00:52:03.920 The argument,

00:52:06.000 I guess,

00:52:06.380 here is that

00:52:07.040 would you kill

00:52:08.000 baby Hitler?

00:52:08.560 And the truth is

00:52:09.080 that no pro-life person

00:52:09.980 on earth

00:52:10.300 would kill baby Hitler.

00:52:11.680 Because baby Hitler

00:52:12.460 wasn't Hitler.

00:52:13.120 Adult Hitler was Hitler.

00:52:14.260 Baby Hitler was a baby.

00:52:15.760 What you presumably

00:52:16.420 want to do with baby Hitler

00:52:17.440 was take baby Hitler

00:52:18.240 out of baby Hitler's house

00:52:19.280 and move baby Hitler

00:52:20.340 into a better house

00:52:21.160 where he would not

00:52:21.640 grow up to be Hitler.

00:52:23.220 That's the idea.

00:52:25.220 But it is also true

00:52:26.520 that the crime statistics

00:52:27.440 do not even match up.

00:52:28.980 Criminologist Barry Latzer

00:52:30.000 points out that abortions

00:52:31.300 became available in 1973

00:52:32.600 under Roe v. Wade.

00:52:34.280 Those young people

00:52:35.060 would go on to create

00:52:35.880 a massive crime spike

00:52:37.120 and the crack cocaine epidemic.

00:52:39.260 But if you move forward

00:52:40.320 15 to 20 years,

00:52:42.100 that's when you would see

00:52:43.440 the crime drop

00:52:44.220 due to the abortion of babies.

00:52:45.500 But there is no crime drop.

00:52:47.060 You'd expect the absent babies,

00:52:48.520 the babies that were killed

00:52:49.420 starting in 1973,

00:52:50.840 not to be around

00:52:51.680 carjacking people.

00:52:52.800 But it turns out

00:52:53.500 that people were still

00:52:54.520 carjacking people

00:52:55.420 15 years after Roe v. Wade,

00:52:57.120 20 years after Roe v. Wade.

00:52:58.520 The crime spike

00:52:59.720 only began to drop

00:53:01.340 in 1994

00:53:02.140 a solid 21 years

00:53:03.840 after Roe v. Wade

00:53:04.820 was actually put in place.

00:53:06.760 That can't be due

00:53:07.960 to abortion.

00:53:09.300 That's really due

00:53:10.080 to additional policing.

00:53:11.600 So it doesn't even

00:53:12.040 match up statistically.

00:53:13.820 Now, in all of this discussion,

00:53:15.260 I've refrained from

00:53:16.000 discussing the Bible

00:53:17.260 and religion.

00:53:18.220 Now, one of the arguments

00:53:18.940 that I've made

00:53:19.380 is based on the Bible

00:53:20.000 or religion.

00:53:20.960 Now, the media will pretend

00:53:21.660 that I didn't make

00:53:22.360 any of these arguments,

00:53:23.160 that it's all about

00:53:23.700 the Bible and religion.

00:53:24.980 Because the left

00:53:25.800 prefers to believe

00:53:26.660 that religion is stupid

00:53:28.060 and people who believe

00:53:28.860 in religion are stupid,

00:53:29.660 people who believe

00:53:30.020 in God are idiots,

00:53:30.800 and that's the reason

00:53:31.440 why we prefer

00:53:32.040 to protect the lives

00:53:33.760 of the unborn.

00:53:34.960 But we do have

00:53:35.720 to recognize

00:53:36.120 one religious root

00:53:36.820 to every argument

00:53:37.440 that I'm making,

00:53:37.900 and that is the innate value

00:53:38.720 of human life.

00:53:39.620 That is a religiously

00:53:40.460 based argument.

00:53:42.240 I mean,

00:53:42.640 that's just a collection

00:53:44.780 of great points

00:53:46.100 on the topic.

00:53:46.540 Tell me how you get

00:53:50.080 a defense of Hitler

00:53:51.260 out of that.

00:53:53.440 I mean,

00:53:54.320 it's implausible,

00:53:55.460 obviously,

00:53:55.960 because Ben Shapiro

00:53:56.580 has been attacked

00:53:57.200 by anti-Semites

00:53:58.220 more than any journalist.

00:53:59.720 This is not like me

00:54:00.360 just saying it.

00:54:01.080 It was a study done

00:54:02.240 by anti-Semitic attacks

00:54:03.340 on journalists in 2016,

00:54:04.840 and he was attacked

00:54:05.560 by more than

00:54:07.300 any other journalist

00:54:09.160 in existence.

00:54:11.160 The idea that he could be

00:54:12.320 some pro-Hitler guy

00:54:13.940 or some,

00:54:14.760 he's so fanatic

00:54:15.640 that he would let

00:54:16.160 the Holocaust happen

00:54:17.160 to not let a woman

00:54:18.160 have an abortion

00:54:18.800 or whatever the accusation is.

00:54:20.120 They're all absurd.

00:54:21.980 So let me tell you

00:54:24.340 what's happening here

00:54:25.960 and why these things

00:54:27.100 are put out,

00:54:28.220 and then they say,

00:54:29.060 oh, I'm really sorry.

00:54:30.500 Because it doesn't matter.

00:54:32.320 The retraction

00:54:32.980 doesn't matter.

00:54:34.580 The image

00:54:35.760 is already in your head.

00:54:37.480 So if you don't know

00:54:38.600 Ben Shapiro,

00:54:39.880 and you hear that

00:54:40.980 Ben Shapiro

00:54:41.800 was defending Hitler

00:54:44.080 by saying nobody

00:54:45.280 should kill baby Hitler

00:54:46.440 because he loves Hitler,

00:54:48.660 and that's the spin

00:54:49.520 you have.

00:54:50.320 Even if you hear

00:54:51.180 a few days later

00:54:52.100 that's not true,

00:54:53.740 that's still,

00:54:54.500 that's still that.

00:54:55.900 That is seared

00:54:57.080 into your head

00:54:57.940 because it's an outrageous

00:54:58.820 statement

00:54:59.260 and an outrageous position.

00:55:00.960 So that's seared

00:55:01.860 in your head.

00:55:02.500 Remember,

00:55:02.920 you don't really know

00:55:03.680 Ben Shapiro.

00:55:04.440 You're not really

00:55:05.000 following Ben Shapiro.

00:55:06.280 You don't really care

00:55:07.000 about this,

00:55:07.640 but you saw someplace.

00:55:08.800 I read someplace

00:55:09.400 that he's like

00:55:10.040 a big anti-Semite.

00:55:11.200 You get enough

00:55:13.140 of those,

00:55:14.520 you all of a sudden

00:55:15.900 start to say,

00:55:17.580 Ben Shapiro is a bad guy.

00:55:19.120 You don't know him.

00:55:21.080 You've never heard of him.

00:55:23.180 You've never met him.

00:55:24.700 You've never seen him.

00:55:25.940 You don't know

00:55:26.620 anything about him

00:55:27.800 except all of the falsehoods

00:55:30.800 that have been put out.

00:55:32.080 Yeah.

00:55:32.420 That's disinformation.

00:55:35.140 Misinformation is a mistake.

00:55:37.680 Misinformation is something,

00:55:38.600 I'm sorry,

00:55:40.000 we made a mistake.

00:55:42.860 Disinformation

00:55:43.340 is intentionally

00:55:44.840 put out there.

00:55:46.320 There's no way

00:55:47.320 any journalist

00:55:48.220 or anyone

00:55:48.940 could possibly

00:55:50.020 make that claim

00:55:50.940 based on that soundbite.

00:55:52.960 Yet they continue

00:55:53.740 to report it.

00:55:54.920 These activist groups

00:55:56.240 went after his sponsors.

00:55:57.440 All the typical crap

00:55:58.520 that goes on

00:55:59.100 knowing that there was

00:56:00.160 absolutely nothing

00:56:01.520 controversial about that.

00:56:02.700 And you have to know

00:56:03.960 the difference

00:56:04.600 between misinformation

00:56:05.860 and disinformation.

00:56:07.780 What happened

00:56:08.380 with the kids

00:56:09.340 from Kentucky?

00:56:10.940 That was disinformation.

00:56:12.940 There were no mistakes

00:56:13.900 made there.

00:56:15.580 Journalists

00:56:16.200 don't make

00:56:17.540 those kinds

00:56:18.520 of easy mistakes.

00:56:25.260 The best

00:56:26.160 of the Glenn Beck program.

00:56:30.220 I have to tell you,

00:56:31.360 I have seen

00:56:32.060 a lot of protesters.

00:56:34.240 I've seen

00:56:34.540 a lot of people

00:56:35.400 act.

00:56:36.000 I've seen

00:56:37.060 crowds of adults

00:56:39.380 act like morons

00:56:40.960 on both sides.

00:56:42.760 I've seen people

00:56:43.980 make stupid mistakes.

00:56:46.020 But I have

00:56:46.800 I have yet to see

00:56:50.120 outside of perhaps

00:56:51.380 the crowd

00:56:51.960 that we had

00:56:52.740 in Washington, D.C.

00:56:54.360 I have yet to see

00:56:56.640 I have yet to see

00:56:56.660 a crowd

00:56:57.900 of kids

00:56:59.580 act

00:57:01.780 as Christ-like

00:57:04.000 as I saw

00:57:05.180 these kids

00:57:05.680 in Covington

00:57:06.280 act.

00:57:07.380 And if you

00:57:08.380 read

00:57:09.040 the letter

00:57:10.380 of the

00:57:11.140 main kid,

00:57:12.500 Nick Sandman,

00:57:13.480 who was the guy

00:57:15.080 who was staring

00:57:16.160 down the Native American,

00:57:17.180 he wasn't.

00:57:18.300 He wasn't.

00:57:19.880 He was acting

00:57:20.820 Christ-like.

00:57:21.820 And you see it

00:57:23.120 if you watch

00:57:23.780 the video.

00:57:24.340 I watched

00:57:24.800 the videos.

00:57:25.800 I didn't watch

00:57:26.380 the clips.

00:57:27.100 I watched

00:57:27.620 the actual

00:57:28.440 whole video.

00:57:30.100 And you see

00:57:31.240 they were targeted.

00:57:32.640 He wasn't

00:57:33.340 blocking anyone.

00:57:34.820 He was not

00:57:35.520 smirking

00:57:36.260 and laughing.

00:57:37.400 I would imagine

00:57:38.440 that for a while

00:57:39.200 there,

00:57:39.660 he either got

00:57:40.480 like the funeral

00:57:41.160 giggles.

00:57:41.700 I was an altar boy.

00:57:43.080 Oh, I remember

00:57:43.780 being taken back

00:57:44.700 because I had

00:57:45.440 my friend and I,

00:57:46.340 we were altar boys

00:57:47.000 at a funeral

00:57:47.500 and we got

00:57:49.640 the giggles

00:57:50.300 and it wasn't

00:57:51.240 because we wanted

00:57:52.000 to.

00:57:52.420 It was because

00:57:52.700 we didn't want

00:57:53.500 to.

00:57:54.340 And man,

00:57:54.840 we got chastised

00:57:55.880 by the priest.

00:57:56.580 It was not

00:57:57.420 pretty.

00:57:58.240 Anyway,

00:58:00.160 he's,

00:58:00.940 and I think

00:58:01.500 he's just

00:58:01.840 because he's

00:58:02.320 smiling because

00:58:02.800 of the absurdity

00:58:03.720 of it.

00:58:04.060 But if you

00:58:04.360 watch the

00:58:04.800 whole video,

00:58:05.660 that's only

00:58:06.420 a fraction

00:58:07.220 of a second.

00:58:08.280 And then

00:58:09.260 he hears

00:58:10.160 one of his

00:58:10.580 classmates

00:58:11.180 intelligently,

00:58:13.060 not confronting,

00:58:14.740 intelligently

00:58:15.460 trying to

00:58:16.640 argue with

00:58:17.620 one of the

00:58:18.220 Native American

00:58:18.860 protesters

00:58:19.440 who's calling

00:58:20.200 them all

00:58:20.580 kinds of

00:58:21.000 names.

00:58:22.080 And,

00:58:22.200 and Nick

00:58:23.120 actually tries

00:58:24.360 to stop

00:58:25.160 the kid.

00:58:25.940 He's like,

00:58:26.580 at one point

00:58:27.180 he's like,

00:58:27.480 hey,

00:58:27.620 don't,

00:58:28.000 don't.

00:58:28.980 When his

00:58:29.680 friend continues,

00:58:30.680 that's when

00:58:31.360 he turns

00:58:31.840 around,

00:58:32.300 grabs him

00:58:32.820 and says,

00:58:33.100 let's go.

00:58:33.540 The kid

00:58:34.380 was doing,

00:58:35.400 on Martin

00:58:36.440 Luther King

00:58:36.980 Day,

00:58:37.640 I am proud

00:58:38.280 to say,

00:58:39.060 this is a

00:58:39.680 group of

00:58:40.160 kids that

00:58:40.680 Martin

00:58:41.140 Luther King

00:58:41.800 would hold

00:58:42.340 up as a

00:58:43.040 great example.

00:58:44.740 And everyone

00:58:45.520 should do

00:58:46.080 that.

00:58:46.420 now we

00:58:48.540 have,

00:58:49.040 we have

00:58:50.160 Jill Hamlin

00:58:50.960 on.

00:58:51.460 She was a

00:58:51.980 chaperone as

00:58:53.520 they were

00:58:53.800 waiting for

00:58:54.500 the bus.

00:58:54.980 They weren't

00:58:55.340 protesting,

00:58:55.900 they were

00:58:56.080 just there

00:58:56.780 waiting for

00:58:57.460 the bus

00:58:57.900 so they

00:58:58.240 could go

00:58:58.560 home.

00:58:59.960 Jill,

00:59:00.640 welcome to

00:59:01.060 the program.

00:59:02.660 Hi,

00:59:02.920 Glenn,

00:59:03.220 thank you.

00:59:04.380 I am,

00:59:05.160 I can't even

00:59:05.780 imagine what

00:59:06.800 you feel like.

00:59:07.600 I am so

00:59:08.180 upset and I

00:59:08.860 don't know

00:59:09.160 any of the

00:59:09.580 kids and I

00:59:10.040 wasn't there.

00:59:10.560 um,

00:59:12.680 yeah,

00:59:13.300 I,

00:59:13.920 uh,

00:59:14.740 it is,

00:59:15.340 and it

00:59:16.020 was upsetting

00:59:16.660 when it

00:59:17.400 happened and

00:59:18.780 it's been

00:59:19.300 even more

00:59:19.760 upsetting to

00:59:21.100 see the

00:59:21.600 aftermath and,

00:59:23.000 um,

00:59:24.540 just the

00:59:25.360 torment these

00:59:27.220 kids are going

00:59:27.920 through and

00:59:28.440 being so

00:59:29.000 wrongly accused

00:59:30.100 of something

00:59:30.760 they did not

00:59:31.580 do.

00:59:33.860 Tell me what

00:59:34.900 the scene

00:59:35.320 was,

00:59:35.780 Jill.

00:59:37.440 Um,

00:59:38.200 as I know

00:59:39.100 everybody's

00:59:39.800 heard,

00:59:40.100 this has

00:59:40.740 been the

00:59:41.140 meeting place

00:59:41.860 at the

00:59:42.200 Lincoln Memorial

00:59:42.920 for the

00:59:44.160 boys to

00:59:44.820 meet and

00:59:45.340 get their

00:59:45.700 buses.

00:59:46.300 That is

00:59:46.780 what we

00:59:47.140 do every

00:59:47.700 year.

00:59:48.560 And every

00:59:48.860 year,

00:59:49.140 everybody does

00:59:50.060 that because

00:59:50.560 that's where

00:59:51.100 the buses

00:59:51.600 can make a

00:59:52.280 circle.

00:59:53.160 It's the

00:59:53.480 only place

00:59:54.480 where the

00:59:54.840 buses can

00:59:55.640 wait and

00:59:56.280 pick people

00:59:57.140 up from

00:59:57.920 all over

00:59:58.460 the country.

00:59:59.300 That's where

00:59:59.700 you meet.

01:00:00.360 But go

01:00:00.620 ahead.

01:00:01.120 Exactly.

01:00:01.920 We had no

01:00:02.560 idea that

01:00:03.300 there was an

01:00:03.840 indigenous

01:00:04.260 march that

01:00:05.140 day.

01:00:05.860 We were

01:00:06.400 there for

01:00:06.760 the March

01:00:07.120 for Life,

01:00:07.680 a peaceful

01:00:08.180 march that

01:00:09.340 we did.

01:00:10.100 We met,

01:00:11.440 we gathered

01:00:12.300 on the

01:00:12.700 steps because

01:00:13.460 as has

01:00:14.360 been done

01:00:14.800 in past

01:00:15.300 years,

01:00:15.820 the boys

01:00:16.200 typically do

01:00:17.040 their school

01:00:17.600 cheer on

01:00:18.300 the steps

01:00:18.820 down below

01:00:20.020 by the

01:00:20.460 Lincoln Memorial.

01:00:21.240 Once they

01:00:23.580 were gathering,

01:00:24.840 there were

01:00:25.660 other people

01:00:26.280 milling around.

01:00:28.180 There were

01:00:29.060 the black

01:00:31.620 Hebrew

01:00:32.100 Israelites.

01:00:33.120 I think

01:00:33.400 that's what

01:00:33.820 they call

01:00:34.280 themselves.

01:00:34.940 I lived in

01:00:37.620 New York for

01:00:38.240 about six

01:00:38.960 years, so I

01:00:39.540 can tell you

01:00:40.320 they're crazy.

01:00:42.160 That's what we

01:00:42.620 call them when

01:00:43.140 you live in

01:00:43.540 New York and

01:00:44.020 you pass them

01:00:44.460 every day.

01:00:44.960 You're like,

01:00:45.500 oh, those crazy

01:00:46.020 people are across

01:00:46.740 the street.

01:00:47.180 We better cross

01:00:47.700 the street.

01:00:48.300 Go ahead.

01:00:48.620 Yes, they

01:00:49.820 immediately,

01:00:51.180 their eyes

01:00:53.080 just darted

01:00:53.840 over to the

01:00:54.600 crowd of boys

01:00:55.440 and boom,

01:00:57.120 they were the

01:00:57.740 target immediately

01:00:58.880 from the get-go.

01:01:01.460 People from

01:01:02.780 their group

01:01:03.660 started running

01:01:04.700 around with

01:01:05.420 cameras,

01:01:06.260 jumping up on

01:01:07.180 columns and

01:01:08.220 just filming

01:01:09.020 everything.

01:01:10.400 The boys just

01:01:11.460 looked at each

01:01:12.240 other like,

01:01:12.960 why are they

01:01:13.900 saying this to

01:01:14.640 us?

01:01:14.880 We've done

01:01:15.360 nothing wrong.

01:01:16.340 We haven't said

01:01:17.080 anything.

01:01:17.700 We haven't

01:01:18.120 instigated

01:01:18.760 anything and

01:01:19.980 the insult and

01:01:21.440 the hatred that

01:01:22.720 came out of

01:01:23.740 the mouth of

01:01:24.980 these people

01:01:25.660 holding Bibles

01:01:26.480 in their hands

01:01:27.320 was disgusting.

01:01:28.740 Everybody,

01:01:29.460 every journalist

01:01:30.620 at every

01:01:31.780 network has

01:01:32.980 passed those

01:01:34.000 guys on the

01:01:34.800 streets of

01:01:35.260 New York.

01:01:35.980 They know

01:01:36.280 exactly who

01:01:37.460 they are.

01:01:38.340 They know

01:01:38.620 exactly the

01:01:39.620 hateful racist

01:01:40.360 things that they

01:01:41.300 say.

01:01:42.120 And for the

01:01:42.800 journalists in

01:01:43.620 America to

01:01:44.860 actually not

01:01:46.000 give someone

01:01:46.900 else the

01:01:47.500 benefit of

01:01:48.000 the doubt

01:01:48.280 when they

01:01:48.600 have

01:01:48.780 first-hand

01:01:49.500 experience on

01:01:50.880 the streets

01:01:51.420 of New York

01:01:51.940 of those

01:01:52.340 people,

01:01:52.780 it's despicable.

01:01:54.500 But go

01:01:54.760 ahead.

01:01:55.360 Yes.

01:01:56.360 Yes.

01:01:56.940 And, you

01:01:58.180 know, they

01:01:59.020 just were in

01:02:02.120 shock, as we

01:02:03.040 all were.

01:02:03.760 And so we

01:02:04.480 just thought,

01:02:05.180 you know, we're

01:02:05.640 just going to

01:02:06.040 stay together as

01:02:06.880 our group on

01:02:07.600 the steps and

01:02:08.640 we're going to

01:02:09.480 ignore the

01:02:10.020 insults.

01:02:10.760 And then you

01:02:12.340 have Nathan

01:02:12.900 Phillips with

01:02:13.680 his four or

01:02:14.680 five people.

01:02:16.440 He started, you

01:02:18.220 know, he had

01:02:18.620 been beating his

01:02:19.420 drum and the

01:02:21.980 boys were all

01:02:22.620 crowded around.

01:02:23.580 I mean, we were

01:02:24.080 all standing

01:02:24.800 there.

01:02:25.080 The chaperones

01:02:25.820 were all around.

01:02:27.700 It's unfortunate

01:02:28.460 that people think

01:02:29.500 we were nowhere

01:02:30.140 to be found.

01:02:31.920 But Nathan

01:02:33.500 Phillips inserted

01:02:34.720 himself into our

01:02:36.420 group of boys.

01:02:37.440 Have you watched

01:02:38.020 the video from

01:02:38.760 them?

01:02:39.000 Because I

01:02:40.160 watched several

01:02:40.840 videos from

01:02:41.400 several different

01:02:42.240 people on all

01:02:43.300 sides.

01:02:43.920 If you watch the

01:02:45.120 video from the

01:02:46.120 Native American

01:02:46.800 point of view,

01:02:47.560 they specifically

01:02:48.920 target your

01:02:50.640 group.

01:02:51.120 They specifically

01:02:52.600 approach your

01:02:53.580 group because

01:02:54.480 they say, look

01:02:55.540 at all of those

01:02:56.560 white, white

01:02:57.800 Europeans.

01:02:58.740 And they

01:02:59.580 specifically know

01:03:01.300 what they're

01:03:02.360 walking into.

01:03:03.980 Yes, they did.

01:03:05.320 And he was not

01:03:06.360 trying to defuse

01:03:07.440 the situation.

01:03:08.300 He made it

01:03:09.460 worse.

01:03:10.660 He made it

01:03:11.740 worse because he

01:03:12.740 wants the

01:03:13.240 attention and he

01:03:14.800 has drug this

01:03:16.240 school and these

01:03:17.580 boys and their

01:03:18.540 reputations through

01:03:20.260 the worst possible

01:03:21.580 way that he

01:03:22.320 could.

01:03:23.580 And he did not

01:03:25.200 defuse the

01:03:25.820 situation.

01:03:26.400 And everyone

01:03:27.120 says, why

01:03:27.940 didn't the boy

01:03:29.260 move away?

01:03:30.460 He couldn't.

01:03:31.340 He was surrounded

01:03:32.140 by his classmates.

01:03:34.040 They were all

01:03:34.780 standing there.

01:03:35.480 And to your

01:03:36.040 point earlier,

01:03:37.220 he was afraid.

01:03:39.040 He is a young

01:03:40.120 man.

01:03:40.960 He's not an

01:03:41.820 adult.

01:03:43.320 Most of these

01:03:44.060 kids have never

01:03:45.240 been confronted

01:03:45.880 with this type of

01:03:46.840 situation.

01:03:47.420 And they

01:03:48.040 shouldn't have

01:03:48.600 been done

01:03:49.820 that either by

01:03:51.800 Nathan Phillips.

01:03:52.640 He said that

01:03:55.240 all these people

01:03:55.920 were calling

01:03:57.180 names, blah,

01:03:58.040 blah, blah.

01:03:58.520 He was trying

01:03:59.160 to defuse.

01:03:59.800 This is your

01:04:01.800 Catholic student

01:04:02.660 trying to

01:04:04.720 defuse.

01:04:05.800 At one point,

01:04:07.080 he said,

01:04:07.800 I just felt

01:04:09.180 that these

01:04:11.200 adults were

01:04:12.420 trying to

01:04:13.700 use the

01:04:16.620 kids, us

01:04:17.580 kids, as a

01:04:19.200 prop or something.

01:04:19.760 I can't remember.

01:04:20.320 He said it

01:04:20.760 beautifully, and I

01:04:22.280 can't find it.

01:04:23.020 But he knew

01:04:23.880 these kids, I

01:04:26.100 repeat, kids,

01:04:27.420 are being persecuted

01:04:28.380 for actions they

01:04:29.140 did not commit.

01:04:30.080 It's truly

01:04:30.700 horrifying.

01:04:31.940 And he talks

01:04:32.660 about how he

01:04:34.120 was standing

01:04:34.640 there with

01:04:35.280 adults trying to

01:04:36.600 provoke them.

01:04:37.800 And he knew

01:04:38.900 that's what was

01:04:39.660 happening.

01:04:41.000 Yes.

01:04:41.500 Jill, can you

01:04:42.120 hold on?

01:04:42.520 I want to take

01:04:42.940 a quick break,

01:04:43.440 and then I

01:04:43.680 want to come

01:04:43.980 back and

01:04:44.380 continue our

01:04:45.180 conversation.
