Last week, it could have been last week or a week ago.
00:00:04.020
So, Vinny, matter of fact, I'll just let you tell the story of this,
00:00:06.380
of a great story of Kirk Moore and what happened to him when he showed up to,
00:00:23.400
We always hear bad news, bad news, bad news, fighting, killing,
00:00:27.940
you know, the mother that's doing what she's doing.
00:00:29.880
This is a principal, Kirk Moore, from Pauls Valley High School.
00:00:34.740
So a 20-year-old former student named Victor Hawkins,
00:00:37.700
he walks in and he's saying he wanted to shoot up the school
00:00:47.280
If you guys look towards the back, he comes out of nowhere,
00:00:50.000
tackles the guy, gets shot in the leg, and saves this guy from going.
00:00:55.840
He didn't do what we saw in Uvalde where those security or cops
00:01:04.140
And I want, I want, I don't know how this was in the top story, but Rob, go ahead and play
00:01:10.920
Well, there's a kid right there on the, on the right, our left.
00:01:47.300
And by the way, show what happened when he showed up to prom.
00:01:49.400
This is what happened when he showed up to prom.
00:01:51.780
They crown him the prom king at the freaking high school.

00:02:26.020
You're getting emotional just watching it like that.
00:02:29.840
No, it's just such a polar opposite of this is what masculinity should be.
00:02:39.160
As someone who has worked with people in stress responses, training people, all this stuff,
00:02:43.480
you never know how you will react in a high-stress situation.
00:02:46.900
To see someone take action, it's easy to watch it and say, I would do the same thing.
00:02:56.020
So for him to go do that, put his life on the line, the guy's a hero.
00:02:59.640
I think people like this should be nationally celebrated.
00:03:02.320
By the way, if anybody's watching this, if you're from that area
00:03:05.400
or if you know the family or if you know anything about Kirk Moore,
00:03:08.860
what he's like, what he's interested in, what his passions are,
00:03:13.680
Let's find a way collectively, you and I, to do something special for him
00:03:18.580
Let's do something very, very, very special for him
00:03:37.640
This is exactly, you know, we're celebrating this.
00:03:43.440
We're celebrating him, and we should, but it's just sad and it worries me.
00:03:48.960
I mean, Kim is a teacher at a really good school,
00:03:54.160
It only takes one person to kind of flip the bit.
00:04:01.400
I thank you for all the training and everything that law enforcement does to schools now.
00:04:06.540
We have so many ways to protect our schools and more techniques and more devices that are on doors and procedures.
00:04:15.220
But really what it gets back to, man, we need big brothers and big sisters.
00:04:20.080
And we need Sunday school that brings faith to these people so that we can catch it early, so that they can be valuable members of society.
00:04:29.500
All the protections and everything that I'm praising protects.
00:04:35.140
We've got to go all the way upstream, as I'm very fond of saying when I talk about don't build a $1 trillion filter in the pond.
00:04:43.040
Go upstream and find out what's getting into the pond and stop that.
00:04:47.720
and it's and let me tell you folks it's faith and it's and it's being willing to reach out
00:04:53.480
your community and to be a big a big brother or a big sister or to help a single mom and it did
00:04:59.980
that we need that spirit of community back in the u.s to reach out and help because you're gonna
00:05:06.540
you're gonna prevent this and not even know it yeah you'll never know the person you stopped
00:05:11.440
from doing the terrible and tell me and you make it i love that you you took it there we spend
00:05:15.660
billions besides all the fraud we spend billions of dollars protecting other countries yet our
00:05:21.280
schools and our children aren't safe every seems like every month there's a mass shooting and the
00:05:26.020
fact that heroism is the last line of defense tells you that there's something wrong with the
00:05:31.540
people in charge and their priorities are not straight bro these are the most vulnerable we
00:05:36.300
just heard how many stories about these children and they're the most not looked after like
00:05:40.560
neglected it's like bro if we could spend billions everywhere put a freaking cop put a metal detector
00:05:46.780
in the front that kid just strolled in pat if that gun was active okay and he walked into a
0.54
00:05:51.580
classroom it's a whole different story that we're hearing kirk moore god bless his soul
00:05:55.840
it's a whole different situation because he's shooting shooting shooting clip and then it's you
00:05:59.580
there is so there's something weird going on in society i saw a video i opened instagram and this
00:06:04.120
is what i'm exposed to i see a kid playing in a school yard he gets in a fight with some other
00:06:07.460
kids it's like a basketball court and the kids start punching him in the face he's 15 years old
00:06:12.060
and then one hits him in the face as he's trying to go away the other one pulls out a firearm
00:06:15.720
shoots him in the chest kills him and this is on instagram and i'm exposed to something i'm
00:06:21.600
a 44 year old man exposed there's young kids seeing this the amount of nihilism and dehumanization
0.98
00:06:26.740
that's taking place online is very scary and you talk about going upstream i think it all leads to
00:06:31.620
nihilism it leads to sorry go ahead great point and you remember the whole conversation that we
00:06:36.360
had if it bleeds it leads that was on the general news but there was a a a corridor where the
00:06:43.800
producer said listen we can't go that far now with the dissemination of social media anything can be
00:06:49.580
put out there and there's no uh selectivity to what you see out there look i'll continue to
00:06:55.460
harp on this the only way america could lose in the global stage is if we're divisive and if we're
00:07:02.720
dividing each other and we have internal decay so the whole if it bleeds it leaves there's two
00:07:07.160
stories that we just covered one this heroic teacher that's saving lives the other one i
00:07:11.520
learned a new word family side yeah not a homicide no suicide you're taking out your own family bro
00:07:18.460
so i know we're talking we shouldn't know that that we shouldn't know that word that word should
00:07:23.360
not exist that should not exist we talk about have more kids have more kids have more kids
00:07:27.240
this guy had a lot of kids so what happens when you're bringing all these kids in this world
00:07:53.820
You know, you got to talk about the good, the bad and the ugly
00:07:56.660
Again, if you know Kirk more and stuff about him
00:07:59.380
I want to do something very, very, very special
00:08:02.080

00:08:08.780
students, that involves the school, that involves the kids there. I want to do something really
