The Matt Walsh Show - Ep. 563 - BLM Riots Over Death Of Knife Wielding Maniac

00:00:00.000 Today on the Matt Wall Show, riots have made their way to Amish country now. This time,

00:00:04.500 BLM and Antifa are tearing the city of Lancaster apart because a knife-wielding maniac got shot

00:00:10.320 while trying to stab a police officer to death. This somehow is racism, we're told. Also,

00:00:15.460 two police officers in LA fall victim to an attempted assassination.

00:00:19.140 How much responsibility do Joe Biden and the Democrats bear for that?

00:00:23.920 And in our daily cancellation, I will be canceling the Black National Anthem.

00:00:28.400 Black National Anthem is canceled. And that was played before every NFL game this weekend,

00:00:34.500 but it is canceled. All of that on the way. But first, a couple of brief notes. First of all,

00:02:34.780 All right. Now, most people, I think, probably have never heard of Lancaster. Those who are

00:02:42.240 familiar with it know that it is Amish country. Nestled in the rural part of southern Pennsylvania,

00:02:47.440 Lancaster is home to one of the largest Amish communities in America. That was its claim to

00:02:52.960 fame. But even Amish Lancaster, about as far geographically and culturally from Portland or

00:03:00.000 Seattle as you can get, is not safe from the morally deranged thugs of Antifa and BLM.

00:03:09.100 Rioters descended on the city last night, ostensibly in protest of the death of a man named Ricardo

00:03:14.680 Munoz. We'll talk about the specifics of that case in just a moment. But first,

00:03:19.560 let's take a look at some of the action in Amish land from last night. Watch this.

00:03:30.000 they're masking up.

00:03:40.800 They're masking up.

00:04:00.120 And she's funny, you digamos?

00:04:03.560 Oh, my God.

00:04:33.560 Yes, that is what collective madness looks like.

00:04:55.440 There's nothing coherent being said here.

00:04:57.340 No message, no reason, no point.

00:04:59.520 Just hate, aggression, and anger directed outwards at everyone and everything.

00:05:05.120 These are people with the emotional intelligence of infants and the intellectual intelligence

00:05:10.380 of sea sponges.

00:05:12.260 And that becomes even clearer when you see the supposed reason for this latest bout of

00:05:17.600 lunacy and chaos.

00:05:19.140 The 27-year-old Munoz was confronted by police after his sister called 911 to report that

00:05:23.780 her brother was getting aggressive with their mother and trying to break into her house.

00:05:27.340 In the body cam, you can see a woman flee terrified from the house as the police arrive,

00:05:33.180 and then Munoz comes charging out with a knife.

00:05:36.580 Watch.

00:05:36.860 As you can see there, Munoz is chasing the officer, literally waving a butcher's knife

00:06:01.360 in the air like some kind of horror movie villain.

00:06:04.620 He was mere moments from getting close enough to sink the blade into the officer when he

00:06:08.860 was shot.

00:06:10.040 This is about as justified as a police shooting can possibly get.

00:06:15.020 Yet BLM still protests, weeping and wailing and gnashing their teeth, pretending to be distraught

00:06:20.880 that this noble gentleman is no longer with us.

00:06:23.560 As it happens, Ricardo Munoz is the second BLM martyr in a row after Jacob Blake to be

00:06:29.280 shot after getting the cops called on him by a woman that he was harassing and threatening.

00:06:34.020 The other two BLM martyrs from this summer, George Floyd and Rayshard Brooks, also had

00:06:37.800 histories of abusing and tormenting women.

00:06:41.140 These are the men that BLM wants us to honor and celebrate.

00:06:45.000 Abusers, criminals, sociopaths, appropriate mascots, I suppose, for one of the most morally

00:06:50.540 degenerate political movements in American history. 0.94

00:06:54.280 Rarely in this country have we ever seen a group that is so cartoonishly and absolutely

00:07:00.100 evil with no redeeming qualities and nothing to be said in its favor at all.

00:07:05.260 We should be very clear about this.

00:07:07.200 BLM has no valid points, nothing to offer, nothing to say, no reason to take them seriously. 1.00

00:07:14.280 They should not be listened to or respected.

00:07:16.520 They deserve scorn and only scorn. 0.68

00:07:20.480 Even now, I still hear people who know better claim that BLM is at least calling attention

00:07:25.240 to important issues.

00:07:26.640 No, they aren't.

00:07:27.560 The only issue that BLM is calling attention to is its own moral vacuousness.

00:07:32.840 So don't try to find something salvageable in this heap.

00:07:35.800 There is nothing to find.

00:07:37.300 These are bad people doing bad things for bad reasons.

00:07:41.060 And if rioting in Amish country because a cop shot a man who was moments away from stabbing

00:07:45.900 him with a butcher's knife is not enough to convince you of that fact, then I don't know

00:07:50.140 what will.

00:07:51.440 Meanwhile, also this weekend, two Los Angeles County Sheriff's deputies were critically injured

00:07:55.640 in an assassination attempt.

00:07:57.440 A video, which you can see here, shows someone walk up to the two officers as they're sitting

00:08:01.780 in their police cruiser and open fire through the window.

00:08:04.640 The victims are both new to the force, sworn in just over a year ago.

00:08:08.420 One is a 31-year-old mother, the other a 24-year-old man.

00:08:12.360 In a screenshot from the video, you can see the female officer who had been shot in the

00:08:16.120 jaw helping to apply a tourniquet to her partner.

00:08:19.480 Now, this is what heroism looks like.

00:08:21.260 It doesn't look like Jacob Blake or Ricardo Munoz.

00:08:24.540 These are real heroes.

00:08:26.860 Fortunately, though, they're not martyrs because they are both expected to survive, thank

00:08:30.840 God.

00:08:31.560 Now, Democrats like Joe Biden came out to offer their weak condemnations of the attack.

00:08:38.260 Here's Biden.

00:08:39.120 He says,

00:08:39.560 This cold-blooded shooting is unconscionable, and the perpetrator must be brought to justice.

00:08:43.760 Violence of any kind is wrong.

00:08:45.660 Those who commit it should be caught and punished.

00:08:48.060 Jill and I are keeping the deputies and their loved ones in our prayers and in our hearts,

00:08:51.620 praying for their full recovery.

00:08:54.060 Then Kamala Harris said, 1.00

00:08:55.240 Doug and I are keeping the two Los Angeles County Sheriff's deputies in our hearts as they

00:08:59.060 currently fight for their lives after a horrific attack.

00:09:01.660 The perpetrator must be brought to justice.

00:09:03.560 Adam Schiff chimed in, saying,

00:09:06.240 Praying for the two deputies who were shot in an apparent ambush and thinking of their

00:09:10.720 loved ones tonight.

00:09:11.840 Everyday law enforcement officers put themselves at risk to protect our community.

00:09:16.220 I hope the perpetrator of this cowardly attack can be quickly brought to justice.

00:09:21.540 Yeah.

00:09:22.520 Okay.

00:09:22.860 Now, I hope this doesn't sound ungracious, but let me just say to the Democrats issuing 1.00

00:09:29.400 their thoughts and prayers and condemnations, shut up, you gutless snakes, you damned hypocrites, 1.00

00:09:37.760 you disgusting frauds, you repulsive phonies. 1.00

00:09:40.540 You're not fooling anyone. 1.00

00:09:43.440 You Democrats, along with your servants in the media and your BLM constituency, you are 0.99

00:09:49.040 all directly responsible for this.

00:09:51.200 You are responsible for those cops being shot.

00:09:54.240 Just as you're responsible for so much of the violence against police that we've seen

00:09:57.340 over the summer and over the past several years.

00:09:59.520 Let's not forget about the five cops that were executed in Dallas during a BLM rally a

00:10:03.280 few years ago.

00:10:04.440 And you will be responsible for the cops that are attacked and assassinated in the future.

00:10:08.140 And there will be more.

00:10:09.060 However, you may not pull the trigger, but you carry an equal moral guilt.

00:10:13.640 You cannot distance yourself from this.

00:10:15.860 When cops start dying, you cannot pretend to be shocked or surprised or horrified.

00:10:21.460 They are reaping what you have sowed.

00:10:24.640 This is your fault.

00:10:25.780 This is on you.

00:10:27.060 When you, in a position of power and authority, however unearned that power and authority may

00:10:31.880 be, go around telling wild fables about racist police hunting and killing innocent 0.98

00:10:37.520 black people, and then those racist hunters wind up dead or in the hospital with a bullet 0.99

00:10:43.680 wound to the jaw, you cannot pretend that you're innocent. 0.99

00:10:47.460 You know exactly what you're doing.

00:10:49.660 There is a direct correlation here.

00:10:52.120 So let's not, let's not, let's not, uh, let's not dance around this at all.

00:10:59.560 But, you know, of course, whoever pulls the trigger, they're a hundred percent responsible.

00:11:03.660 But you in a position of authority, by encouraging that, you are also 100 percent responsible for that.

00:11:10.820 And they know what they're doing.

00:11:13.840 What do you think is going to happen?

00:11:16.040 When you go around saying that there are, that the cops are a danger, they need to be potentially

00:11:21.640 defunded or whatever, they're a danger, they're, they're, they're hunting and they're killing 1.00

00:11:25.540 black people. 0.99

00:11:26.560 Um, there's a, you know, there's an epidemic, there's a crisis of this happening in the country. 0.98

00:11:30.980 There isn't, it's a lie and you know it. 1.00

00:11:33.980 Now, if you're just one of these morons on the street, you might not know it because you're so damn stupid. 1.00

00:11:40.960 Um, and you haven't thought critically about any of the issues that you're currently, you know, burning police cars over. 1.00

00:11:47.480 You haven't thought critically about any of them.

00:11:49.840 But these Democrats, Joe Biden, the rest, he knows, he knows.

00:11:55.500 Well, maybe not Joe Biden.

00:11:56.420 I don't know what he knows anymore.

00:11:57.480 I'm not even sure what he's conscious of.

00:11:58.900 But Kamala Harris, let's just say her.

00:12:00.860 She knows, okay?

00:12:02.040 This is somebody who is in law enforcement on some level.

00:12:06.560 So she knows it's not true.

00:12:08.920 There's an epidemic of, of police officers killing innocent people.

00:12:12.080 No, there isn't.

00:12:13.400 Not even close.

00:12:14.900 This is completely and totally made up.

00:12:18.000 It's not happening.

00:12:19.960 So when you tell a made up story about police officers doing this and then, and then next thing you know,

00:12:26.240 they're getting shot randomly as they sit and apparently not so randomly actually,

00:12:30.060 as they sit in their police cruisers, yes, your response.

00:12:32.760 It would be just like if I decided, you know, that, um, I really don't like plumbers.

00:12:38.520 And so I'm going to dedicate many of my shows to telling you how evil plumbers are.

00:12:43.340 And I'm going to make up stories about plumbers and tell you that, you know, when plumbers,

00:12:47.140 when they come to your house, uh, they're, they're not really fixing the toilet.

00:12:50.500 They're, you know, they're installing cameras in your, in your, in your bathroom. 0.98

00:12:54.400 Cause they're a bunch of perverts. 0.92

00:12:55.600 I start making up all these wild, just out of whole cloth. 0.98

00:12:58.920 I'm just making up stories about plumbers because I have a, I have a problem with them.

00:13:02.860 And if I do that for weeks on end, and then next thing, you know, um, there's a rash of plumbers

00:13:10.000 getting killed or beat up.

00:13:13.740 Can I really sit here and say, well, I had no idea.

00:13:16.300 Don't look at me.

00:13:17.840 Well, I mean, I'm just sharing my opinion.

00:13:19.780 It's not my fault.

00:13:22.220 No, either my intention was to get the plumbers beat up or I had some other intention and I

00:13:30.220 didn't give a damn whether they were attacked or not.

00:13:33.660 Now, when it comes to these Democrats like Biden and Harris and the rest of them, they

00:13:37.820 have other intentions.

00:13:39.260 Okay.

00:13:39.820 They, they had, they have a political goal and they just don't care if it gets police

00:13:44.180 officers shot.

00:13:44.880 It doesn't make a difference to them. 0.91

00:13:47.240 Because they're soulless. 0.97

00:13:49.780 But it's, it's politically useful for them to go with this made up ridiculous fable about 0.99

00:13:54.900 police officers shooting innocent black people. 0.99

00:13:58.040 So yes, a hundred percent responsible. 0.97

00:14:01.220 And I think we have to be totally clear about that.

00:14:03.380 Let's go to our, um, five headlines.

00:14:06.940 You know, winter is a fast approaching, I hate to say, and that's why you want to get

00:14:17.880 outside, spend as much time outdoors as you possibly can, especially as we get into the

00:14:21.520 fall.

00:14:21.840 Okay.

00:14:21.980 This is when fall is objectively the best season.

00:14:25.440 There's no discussion to be had about that.

00:14:27.220 So that's what you need rad power bikes for.

00:14:28.920 Whether you want a new way to get around town or out in nature, even with the kids in tow,

00:14:33.180 you've got to try rad power bikes.

00:14:34.880 It's a cross between a traditional bike and a moped, but it doesn't require a special driver's

00:14:38.280 license like a moped would.

00:14:39.580 You can go up to 20 miles per hour without pedaling.

00:14:41.900 So you can get out and about without getting all sweaty.

00:14:44.420 They're great for commuting, getting out on the trail, hauling groceries, transporting

00:14:47.920 your kids on the back.

00:14:49.000 Rad power bikes are affordable.

00:14:50.420 Most e-bikes are in the $3,000 range.

00:14:52.640 Rad power bikes though, just $9.99.

00:14:54.160 Um, and, uh, and most are under $1,500.

00:14:57.480 So you're going to get them for a lot cheaper.

00:14:59.220 Great product though.

00:15:00.880 Uh, and this is, you know what?

00:15:02.520 It's practical, but it's also fun.

00:15:04.400 So you've got the practicality and the fun rad power bikes offers flexible financing for

00:15:08.700 as low as 0% APR.

00:15:09.980 And now for a limited time, get a free accessory value of, uh, valued at up to a hundred dollars

00:15:14.480 with the purchase of a bike.

00:15:15.700 That's right.

00:15:16.580 Free accessory, free gift of up to a hundred dollars in value and free shipping to the lower

00:15:21.540 48 states.

00:15:22.280 To get this special offer, text the word bike to 64,000.

00:15:26.280 That's bike to 64,000 text bike to 64,000.

00:15:30.640 Okay.

00:15:32.180 Um, this is why I've always said that the book, if you give a mouse a cookie is one of the

00:15:36.560 most prophetic works of literature, I think in, of our time in American history, certainly.

00:15:42.600 Um, and this is a great example right here.

00:15:44.880 The NFL engaged in, um, all kinds of racially woke pageantry over the weekend as the NFL season

00:15:50.980 started and we'll talk more about that in the daily cancellation.

00:15:54.320 But, uh, you know, you thought Colin Kaepernick, I mean, this is all being done for his benefit

00:15:59.220 and, and for the people that support him, but he was not impressed.

00:16:02.980 He sent out a tweet after all of this.

00:16:04.680 And he said, um, while the NFL runs propaganda about how much they care about black life,

00:16:09.080 they are still actively blackballing Eric Reed for fighting for the black community.

00:16:12.920 Eric set two franchise records last year and is one of the best defensive players in the

00:16:16.800 league.

00:16:17.600 So it's one of his buddies who doesn't have a job yet in the NFL and a free agent.

00:16:21.660 And, um, and he's upset about that.

00:16:23.240 So now, first of all, let me say, I agree with the first few words of what, what Colin

00:16:29.220 Kaepernick said, and that's the most I'll ever agree with him.

00:16:32.080 So we've got the first few words of that statement in common.

00:16:35.660 He says the NFL is running propaganda.

00:16:37.400 You're right.

00:16:37.760 It is propaganda.

00:16:38.800 The rest of it, not so much.

00:16:40.080 Um, but he's not satisfied and the SJWs, they're never satisfied.

00:16:47.440 That's why I say, if you give a mouse a cookie, okay, read, read that, that children's books,

00:16:52.160 one of my favorite books as a kid, but I didn't realize all the depth of meaning in this book.

00:16:57.240 And if you're not familiar with it, and if you give a mouse a cookie, uh, it's all about

00:17:01.420 this kid who's got a mouse in the house and the mouse wants a cookie.

00:17:05.000 And he says, okay, I'll give you the cookie.

00:17:06.660 But next thing you know, what does a mouse want?

00:17:08.280 He wants a napkin and then he wants milk and then he wants, uh, I don't know, carrots.

00:17:12.700 And then he wants, and then every, every last thing.

00:17:15.180 Next thing you know, he's eaten the entire house and everything in it.

00:17:17.940 And the child is left destitute and cold on the street.

00:17:20.980 That's my memory of the book.

00:17:22.480 Anyway, I might be getting that slightly wrong, but the point is you get, you give, you satiate

00:17:27.700 with just one thing and then it's, no, I need something else and something else and something

00:17:32.380 else and something else.

00:17:33.240 And that's the way it works with the left.

00:17:34.840 You give them the one thing they want and now, no, now we need more.

00:17:39.020 And here's the next thing.

00:17:39.860 Here's the next thing.

00:17:40.440 Here's the next thing.

00:17:41.860 Maybe, in fact, instead of making my, my very intelligent literary reference here, uh,

00:17:46.460 maybe a better analogy would be like the mob.

00:17:49.800 Okay.

00:17:50.240 It's, it's sort of like with the mob where you, you, you know, they, they, you, you, you,

00:17:54.400 you, you, you cut a deal with them.

00:17:55.900 You think it's one thing and then you'll be done.

00:17:58.120 And then, uh, and then they come back and they want more.

00:18:00.540 They don't get out of your life, at least based on the movies.

00:18:02.620 That's how it seems to go.

00:18:04.160 So take that, take whichever analogy you want.

00:18:07.720 If you give a mouse a cookie or a mafia movies, that's as intelligent as it gets on this show.

00:18:13.680 Let's go, uh, to number two, the daily wire reports.

00:18:17.440 Um, it says, even though the backlash against Netflix's cuties was largely bipartisan, a new op-ed in Slate has put the blame squarely on the shoulders of conservatives.

00:18:26.240 According to Sam Adams, uh, conservatives have a creepy obsession with the new French film, which has been accused of indefensibly sexualizing 11-year-old girls in the name of artistry.

00:18:35.100 Uh, Adams wrote, quote,

00:18:37.420 The movie finds itself at the toxic intersection of QAnon delusion and right-wing moral panic with a smattering of leftist outrage on the side. 0.72

00:18:46.440 Breitbart has posted about the movie a half dozen times in the past two days, singling out critics who praise the film, several of whom have received death threats and have been harassed off of social media.

00:18:55.400 And Thursday night, Tucker Carlson made it a centerpiece of his show, accusing a non-specific they behind the movie of wanting to destroy young girls.

00:19:03.060 Uh, then it goes on, the daily wire report, Adams argued that the critics of the movie have not actually seen it, choosing instead to go off of the marketing materials and viral clips online.

00:19:11.540 Addressing those who would say that cuties pushes softcore child pornography, Adams argued that intent matters in this case.

00:19:18.200 By definition, pornography requires intent, and whether or not the director succeeded, uh, at her intent is, is, uh, her, unless, whether or not she succeeded, her intent is clear.

00:19:28.360 The movie's protagonist, Amy, is an 11-year-old bouncing between the repressive culture of her conservative Islamic upbringing, where she is warned that evil shows itself in the scantily clad women,

00:19:37.240 and the hyper-sexualized environment of Western culture, where images of adult women doing strip club gyrations are emulated by tweens on social media.

00:19:44.820 The movie presents those images in order to critique them.

00:19:48.200 Uh, you know, even if all of that was true, the fact that, uh, it tells you everything you need to know, that this guy doesn't even, doesn't even see a problem with that.

00:19:58.640 Okay, so according to him, the movie is presenting a sort of traditional religious culture as equally as evil as pedophilic, uh, sexualization of children.

00:20:12.420 For him, he sees, he sees them as both just as bad.

00:20:15.540 He's putting them on the same moral playing field.

00:20:18.200 So, that, that would be bad enough as it is.

00:20:21.400 But, it's also, I think, uh, just not true.

00:20:24.580 And, this idea that intent doesn't matter.

00:20:26.660 In fact, somebody made an interesting point on Twitter.

00:20:29.600 I don't remember who it was.

00:20:30.440 But, made an interesting point about, you know, on the left, they usually tell us intent doesn't matter at all.

00:20:38.340 So, for example, if somebody says the N-word, even if they're just, and it's a white person, of course, white person says the N-word.

00:20:45.820 Even if they're just quoting someone else, if there's, there's, there's no racial, uh, intent at all.

00:20:53.360 There's, there's no racist intent at all.

00:20:55.200 Even if they're simply quoting or they're singing along to a song where it's used, a rap song or something.

00:21:00.320 Um, we're told that intent makes no difference.

00:21:03.960 That's racist.

00:21:05.080 Even if you didn't mean it in a racist way.

00:21:06.980 It is racist. 0.70

00:21:07.780 It's horrible.

00:21:08.340 It's the worst thing that you can ever do.

00:21:10.320 That's what we're told.

00:21:11.560 And there are many examples of this on the left.

00:21:13.700 Where usually they say intent doesn't matter.

00:21:15.720 And, but they have it exactly backwards.

00:21:19.180 Because in most of the cases where they say intent doesn't matter, in those kinds of cases, of course intent matters.

00:21:25.200 If, if you're just saying something, if you're saying words, then yes, when it comes to the words you say, intent is everything.

00:21:33.640 I can't even begin to be offended by the words you say, if I'm even inclined to be offended by words in the first place, until I know why you said them.

00:21:41.360 Because that's, that's really all that matters, is what you meant when you said it.

00:21:47.140 Now, when it comes to actually, to taking actual children and putting them in these sexually compromised and vulnerable positions, and sexualizing them on camera, and having them simulate sex acts through dance on camera, and the camera zooming in on various body parts and everything, with something like that, intent does not matter.

00:22:09.840 Because the act itself is, by definition, sexualization. 0.51

00:22:17.760 You are, by definition, sexualizing a child.

00:22:21.800 The reason why you're sexualizing a child doesn't matter.

00:22:26.700 I don't see that making any moral difference whatsoever.

00:22:30.520 So on one hand, you have words, just words.

00:22:34.520 Intent there is everything.

00:22:36.400 On the other hand, you have, you are taking actual children.

00:22:39.080 This isn't like a book, where they're telling a story about this happening.

00:22:43.100 That would be totally different.

00:22:44.400 But these are real children, who you have taken and put them in these positions, on camera.

00:22:49.040 And you're profiting off of it.

00:22:52.020 So the left has everything upside down and backwards, as usual.

00:22:56.160 Number three, Donald Trump said that he is willing to do a debate with Joe Biden, moderated by Joe Rogan.

00:23:04.080 So Tim Kennedy tweeted out, said, on my podcast with Joe Rogan, he offered to moderate a debate between Joe Biden and Donald Trump.

00:23:10.860 It would be four hours with no live audience, just the two candidates, cameras, and their vision for how to move the country forward.

00:23:16.840 Who wants this?

00:23:17.920 And Donald Trump responded, I do.

00:23:19.560 Now, this is never going to happen, but I think it's just, there really isn't any argument.

00:23:24.900 There isn't any good argument against this.

00:23:26.780 I think it's very clear that this would be the best, whether it's Joe Rogan or somebody else.

00:23:30.840 You know, something like that, where it's a lengthy discussion, where the moderator is not interfering that much, and just letting the two people have a conversation.

00:23:41.160 I guess what I'm saying is, a debate that's actually a debate, can you imagine that?

00:23:46.880 That would obviously be far superior to the hyper, overly moderated shows that we normally get, and will get, certainly this time, if there is a debate at all.

00:23:59.020 But I think that would be great.

00:23:59.800 Number four, I mentioned earlier that BLM is one of the most morally deranged political movements in American history.

00:24:04.880 Well, here's more evidence if you needed it for that claim.

00:24:07.240 I mean, I didn't have time to play this during the opening, but after those two officers were shot in Los Angeles, a witness recorded a video with his live and honest reaction.

00:24:18.460 And it is, it is something.

00:24:21.380 Watch.

00:24:22.800 Just aired the police out.

00:24:26.340 They just aired the police out.

00:24:29.680 It go up and come.

00:24:32.740 This got aired out.

00:24:34.560 Now, let's remember here, this is a woman and a man, both shot, you know, a woman shot in the face, and lying on the ground.

00:24:57.480 And this guy is, he loves it.

00:25:01.560 Leave aside the fact that this guy apparently only knows about six words, and he just keeps repeating them over and over again.

00:25:07.320 But he thinks it's great.

00:25:08.900 He's laughing hysterically.

00:25:11.440 And there are other people around, too, who seem to be very impressed with this.

00:25:16.540 Just imagine that, really think about it, because we get so desensitized to this sort of thing, for seeing these sorts of videos so often.

00:25:23.300 But think about it, somebody on the scene sees a woman get shot in the face in real time, and she's bleeding on the ground, and you're laughing about it. 0.97

00:25:36.660 You would think, even if you're a horrible person, even the average horrible person would at least be so shocked and surprised by that and disturbed by the blood and everything that they would probably react in a relatively human way.

00:25:53.680 So think about how utterly soulless you have to be to not even have that basic, human, visceral, gut-level reaction to witnessing something like that.

00:26:04.580 And the point is, this is the kind of mentality and attitude that police officers in the city, especially a city like Los Angeles, encounter every day.

00:26:17.040 I mean, they're dealing with criminals who, I don't know if this guy's a criminal or not, certainly wouldn't surprise me, given how he apparently feels about, given the fact that he's a big fan of crime, it seems.

00:26:28.520 He's very impressed with it, but they are dealing with criminals who are just total sociopaths and think that violence is funny.

00:26:41.520 Don't value human life.

00:26:44.980 For all the stuff about Black Lives Matter, yes, it does.

00:26:47.900 All lives matter.

00:26:50.180 But I think you see why some of the BLM activists react to All Lives Matter.

00:26:58.340 They get very upset about that, because they really don't think that all lives matter.

00:27:03.240 The people there in that video, they just don't believe it.

00:27:07.700 They don't see that that life matters at all.

00:27:09.300 Then you're a police officer, and you're coming up against this mentality every single day.

00:27:16.680 All right, five.

00:27:17.660 Finally, Joe Biden was speaking over the weekend, gave a speech.

00:27:22.320 And this is part of the speech that I thought was, this part here was pretty riveting.

00:27:25.860 Watch.

00:27:26.760 What makes his wild claims and hopes, he now hopes we don't notice what he said or won't remember.

00:27:33.460 And when he does follow through or doesn't do, when followed through, the exact opposite.

00:27:40.820 What makes his wild claims and hopes, he now hopes we don't notice what he said or won't remember.

00:27:47.700 And when he does follow through or doesn't do, when followed through, the exact opposite.

00:27:52.900 That's what you just heard there.

00:27:53.880 You know, Biden, when he speaks, he has this remarkable ability to make me wonder if maybe I'm the one who had the stroke.

00:28:01.500 But no, I'm pretty sure it was just him.

00:28:03.200 I'm pretty sure he was the one.

00:28:04.540 But still, it does have this disassociative sort of effect where you start to question your own sanity.

00:28:10.480 All right, we're going to get to our daily cancellation in just a second.

00:28:12.700 But before we do, you know, the lockdowns have just been crushing businesses and have been horrible for the economy.

00:28:19.780 Lots of very sad tales of business owners losing their businesses or finding themselves in dire straits.

00:28:25.540 But the god king of the Daily Wire, Jeremy Boring, he has been able to lead the Daily Wire through this environment.

00:28:36.860 And we've been, you know, more successful at the end of it.

00:28:40.280 And so that's why this October, the Daily Wire God King, Jeremy Boring, is going to be presenting alongside an incredibly successful group of business owners at Expert Ownership Live, a virtual conference about leading through crisis.

00:28:51.000 The conference features a lineup of speakers like world-renowned leadership author John Maxwell, the founders of Duck Commander and Otterbox, the Benham Brothers, and many others who can relate to what entrepreneurs and leaders are going through right now.

00:29:02.300 They'll share their stories about their own businesses, their own startup journeys, the tough times that come with any company,

00:29:08.020 and how they were able to come out even stronger on the other side.

00:29:32.900 Today for our daily cancellation, I will be canceling the so-called Black National Anthem.

00:29:38.200 Now, if you watch football mainly to be enlightened by socially conscious symbolism and random gestures to social justice,

00:29:45.060 then you were thrilled by how the NFL season started this weekend.

00:29:48.000 It had already been announced that every stadium would have the words end racism spray-painted onto the field.

00:29:53.340 If that was not enough in itself to heal our collective wounds and bring about global peace and prosperity,

00:29:58.280 then hopefully the players wearing the names of alleged police brutality victims on their helmets would seal the deal.

00:30:03.200 But what if the whole population of the world was still not clasping hands and looking softly into one another's eyes

00:30:10.020 after a bunch of millionaires ran around a football field with names like Jacob Blake, an accused rapist and serial abuser,

00:30:16.700 and Rayshard Brooks, a man who violently assaulted a police officer after passing out drunk behind the wheel of a car, taped to their helmets?

00:30:23.580 You know, what if even that wasn't enough?

00:30:25.520 Well, then surely the players kneeling or sitting or raising their fist or dancing the Macarena

00:30:31.360 or performing whatever other random choreography during the National Anthem would do the job.

00:30:37.500 But if somehow all of those measures still are insufficient in the struggle to establish a new utopia,

00:30:43.600 then the NFL had one more ace up its sleeve, the Black National Anthem.

00:30:49.300 Before each Week 1 game, a song which was penned in 1899 by James Weldon Johnson,

00:30:55.520 it's called Lift Every Voice and Sing, now dubbed the Black National Anthem, this song was performed.

00:31:02.560 Teams had various approaches to the song, but some were not shy at all about paying more reverence to the Black National Anthem

00:31:10.260 than the National National Anthem.

00:31:12.600 My hometown of Baltimore Ravens, I'm afraid to say, mostly knelt or sat during the real anthem,

00:31:19.180 but stood at attention across the goal line for Lift Every Voice.

00:31:23.120 This was an odd choice.

00:31:24.920 Considering what we've been told for years about how the kneeling is a protest against police brutality,

00:31:30.980 not a protest against the anthem or the flag, haven't we been told that?

00:31:35.260 If that's the case, why didn't they kneel during the so-called Black National Anthem, too?

00:31:40.200 Does their concern for police brutality magically dissipate as soon as the words

00:31:44.200 the land of the free and home of the brave are sung? 0.95

00:31:47.000 Are they less worried about the imaginary scourge of racist police hunting Black men

00:31:51.500 while Lift Every Voice is playing? 0.87

00:31:53.820 I mean, I just don't understand.

00:31:55.120 If that's what you're protesting, why wouldn't you still be doing the protest during that song?

00:31:59.160 If the National Anthem was officially abolished and replaced by this other song,

00:32:03.780 would the players decide that racial injustice is no longer a problem?

00:32:07.100 Do they actually think that racial injustice is caused by the National Anthem?

00:32:12.300 These are the questions that inevitably arise,

00:32:14.620 and I suspect we will never be given any sort of coherent answer to them.

00:32:18.540 Here's another question.

00:32:21.480 What the hell does the Black National Anthem even mean? 0.91

00:32:25.880 National anthems are, you may have guessed this from the name, 0.93

00:32:29.400 anthems for the nation.

00:32:31.000 Again, they are supposed to be uplifting and inspiriting songs for, about, and to a whole

00:32:38.620 nation of people.

00:32:40.480 Until recently, we always stood together, when it was played, as a symbol of our national unity.

00:32:46.400 This is the point that's been entirely lost in all the debate over the anthem protests.

00:32:50.480 Standing for the anthem is actually not primarily a show of respect for the military,

00:32:55.280 or the founding fathers, or the constitution, or whatever else.

00:32:59.220 But it's a sign of unity and commonality among the people of America.

00:33:03.940 It's something we do, or used to do, for each other.

00:33:07.620 Not for the government, or even the flag.

00:33:10.380 And that's why it never made sense to kneel during the anthem as a statement against police brutality.

00:33:15.040 The anthem has nothing to do with the police, except that police officers are Americans too.

00:33:18.520 And that's what we're all supposed to be when the anthem plays.

00:33:23.280 Americans.

00:33:24.220 Together.

00:33:25.540 What about the black national anthem?

00:33:27.280 What purpose does it serve?

00:33:28.760 What country is it an anthem to? 0.60

00:33:31.340 There is no black nation, no blacklandia, or blacktopia. 0.66

00:33:35.200 There is no whitelandia, or whitetopia either. 0.82

00:33:38.340 There are countries populated mainly by white people, and countries populated mainly by black people.

00:33:43.420 But black itself is not a nation, and neither is white. 0.95

00:33:47.240 To have a national anthem to, or about, or for a particular skin pigmentation, is, to begin with, completely nonsensical.

00:33:56.460 National anthems, by definition, are for everyone in the nation.

00:34:00.360 A national anthem for 13% of the population is not a national anthem at all.

00:34:04.980 It's as if the NPAA combined its G and R movie ratings to come up with GR, general restricted.

00:34:11.300 If it's for general audiences, it's not restricted.

00:34:13.620 If it's restricted, it's not for general audiences.

00:34:15.360 In the same way, if the black national anthem is a national anthem, it isn't just for black people.

00:34:19.920 If it is just for black people, then it's not a national anthem.

00:34:22.160 It cannot be both.

00:34:23.560 It cannot be for one race and also be national.

00:34:28.120 Aside from the logical problems, the whole idea of playing an anthem for or to a certain race is morally grotesque.

00:34:36.220 It's just more segregation and division in a time when exactly the opposite is required.

00:34:44.160 Our country does not need more singling out of certain races, more lines drawn, more attention called to our differences.

00:34:52.900 There is quite enough of that already.

00:34:54.620 What we need is unity, national unity under a national flag and anthem.

00:34:59.820 Now, I don't know if we can actually have that sort of unity now, but I do know that the kind of segregated and racialized pageantry we saw from the NFL this weekend certainly is not helping matters.

00:35:11.020 And something tells me it isn't supposed to.

00:35:17.040 So, the black national anthem is canceled.

00:35:20.340 But the good thing is, we still have the national anthem.

00:35:23.840 It's for everybody.

00:35:25.980 It's not the white national anthem.

00:35:27.360 It's for everyone who's an American.

00:35:29.760 And that's the point.

00:35:32.200 And that's why we stand.

00:35:33.800 It is an act of unity together.

00:35:36.020 And we'll leave it there for the day.

00:35:42.380 Thanks for watching, everybody.
