Frankly, where we tried to do one shot of beer per minute for an hour, it was all tat was very messy. It was a very messy time in our lives, but it was a lot of fun agreed. We can distraction Youtube COM, slashed stiff. Does America here's the past? I don't even know.
I don't even know where to begin Ebay MAX candy. Let's start there with the odd oh from this, Guy who you know, wrote the anti racist baby books and how to be an anti racist, he's definite not racist at all. Abraham exe. Candy here is so and when I look at their video Myself, If that would have been two year old white girl the suburban neighbourhood with The police officer saw too this girl when the police offers sought to talk her down. We're running saucer. You would have used legal lethal force and hard for me to believe that happened. It's hard to me too, to believe that that officer would not have responded differently for different girl derive because you're nuts, and so can I a he. Can I ask you a question: why are we
reviewing this guy, it's difficult for him to believe that cop wouldn't shoot a white girl. Well, ok, will you find it difficult to, but in fact you find it impossible to believe that white people aren't racist. So why are you where why we got these genetic, we're going to interview Ebro Ex Candy, but we can just tell you he thanks. It was a racist move. You do that on everything in sugar pops have gone up in price wheeze way, we're gonna have Ebro MAX Candy on, but
We just wanted to let you know. He probably thought that was because of racism, your hey, if your answer to every single case, no matter how different the circumstances is exactly the same, your valor not interesting value your commentaries, zero right now I can't write and that's why I as life, that's a great points like more white people get shot by police, but he can't imagine a white person being shot by police or what the hell is. The point of view, I know we got it, we gotta get out of the card up Ebro, MAX Candy thinks it was racist, ok rain today either of candy, believes its races. Are. I now here's MSNBC. Now guess for MSNBC Joy, Reed Cooper. Rutgers University professor said this:
argument for our movements has never been that black people have to be perfect. In order for them to deserve dignity for us to have a policing for us to be viewed with humanity, forecasts to take a breath before they literally shouted the car guns blazing. So that's the first rate this is never what the argument for the movement for black lives has been. Is that you just get the keel black people, particularly when they are not being perfect? I think about whether the prosecution to be in order to get the conviction for George Bush it had to be impeccable. They had to leave no stone unturned in Iraq and start by getting it you're watching the blaze, val sharp in this regard. Curs professor enjoy Red Neuro like yeah yeah up I mean, I think we could just put a card up on MSNBC, it just says I think this was raised.
and my order or they can have to cards trumps fault. Mozilla two things that could be an you could have a debit card where it says both of those things it's too far because its rate, because tromp is race in writing. My favorite part of that has to be, though, when she describes the woman stabbing, Sir another woman as black people being perfect. That is a hell of a sudden. I never think day. I didn't have a perfect day. I killed somebody, I stabbed them. Don't you haven't had a bad day. Do we not remember not more than a couple of weeks ago, where, in the officer in more than one of the recent mass shootings came and said look and he was just just quoting the guy who did the mass shootings anyways. I look. You know he said he had a bad day and I did, and everyone said, poor ass did the cop for just quoting the person to be me.
because a lot of the news networks edited the part where he said he was quoting the person out here too has an happened. Is their opinion right? This is their right and we just they gotta. Well. Well, black people aren't as being perfect and if they're not perfect, they might a stab equal and now only I'm going to stab the S out of you be with a knife. Above your head ready, a plunge into the jest is different definition of a bad Dave and I've ever heard, you know what Hitler you just had a bad here good now, thirty, nine bad here for him. Yeah Harry LAD Year, not in an appropriate way to describe it. No, I mean he got up. he was having a bad day these jewish, We didn't have the bagel ready for him. He had a bad day
and he's a dictator just not being perfect. That, if we can say is that it is not currently on people that some bad that's more than a bad. No, no, it's not know it's not, and you know here they come out of the car guns, a blazing too think they would a shot a white girl you. yes, they wouldn't negotiated she has a knife above her head, saying: I'm gonna stab the The ESA, you and he's actively moving towards it hang on. Can we talk about that feeling what's happening in your life: let's go. Let's talk you back from the two of you: What are you going to say? There's no, negotiation and they come out of the car blazing yeah do you know how amazing that is that that cop, what that cop did Columbus? That is an amazing I could process that I'm riddled with HIV. I couldn't
have process that seen in fifteen seconds. Could you know absolutely none of those in oh, it was Jack power. Ask is what it looked like because he knows a guy in analyzing, ten different moving parts, Ilium fifteen seconds and doing the right thing with one hundred percent certainty. If he had not shy, that person at that moment and put the knife did play: into the other girl Ibrahim The enjoy red would be on the are saying it was because it was racists, they would have protected a white girl, but they didn't protein her because she was a black girl, that's why they allowed the sapling to happen, percent certainty, that's what they would be saying on their yeah, of course, of course, because the police have to be perfect, perfect in even we have found this week, even when they are perfect, not good enough, just not good enough, but the Good NEWS is. Is the Joy Bay Har as the solution, and here it is a test.
what it looks like to me and I looked at the table. I still can't figure it out I shoot have gun in the air for the morning. Tease her son shoot them in the leg, shoot them in them. Behind no stop them somehow, but if they always somehow is to kill the teenager. There's something wrong with this there's something very very stabbing was wrong. With societies are being conducted, even if the cop had to do it something wrong with it Where did he had to do it, there's something with that yeah. It's called society is out of control. Teenagers shouldn't be stabbing each other in the streets, two of my idea and I don't care who streets, I gotta tell you two of my rich neighbours across the street and Iraq. like white trash, and they are true throwing each other down in the lawn dragging each other by hair and trying to
tat one another I'm good the police and, in fact, if they art our really. You know I'm gonna stab the out of you. good actually call over the fence, shoot them or I will shoot them. I mean If you got, you have absolutely no choice and I love these people love these people who have never touched a gun before in their life. Never, the gun for that guy too, who shoot that girl with somebody behind her. Remember, don't shoot at anything. You ve got to know what's behind your target, because sometimes the bullet we'll go through so this. This girl that was trying to protect was behind the other girl. He shot her four times with out wounding the other girl. You
why they don't shoot your legs because it's a small target. You go, for the body mass. You never shoot a gun to warn I'm sorry, Joe Biden, don't take your shot grown out fitted up under your run, joy. when you do that with a pistol. Let me just stir I put it into an old timey song, because I know you and your cat walk around in your foot. slippers drink it up in a cup, a g in it for in the morning. Don't I used to be somebody. and I know you're listener, although sad song, so both let's keep fall in on my head, you ain't. You shoot gun up into. Thus, guy I'm dead, I mean joy because it goes up. It doesn't go into space and float around is not one of those pieces of space like we kid aren't any satellites anymore, because all these bullets
from all those guys in a wild west there or floating around there in space circle in the earth, come back down and if it came back down and hit some one particular person of color and that community aid, the Ebro MAX Candy enjoy red would be on the air saying it. They would have never do that in a white community. They would have ever care. They would have called that racist. Do I guess could shoot at the ground is the idea. Of course there was till my harsh. Are you putting led in the earth drawn on earth? They too we are. That was only today how they wouldn't do that. No white neighbourhood. We should point out that releasing the water in that minority neighbourhood, their poisoned by shooting, led into the ground right anxiety at that time, was a teenager being kicked in the head by an adult, so we don't want shoot. There was It's just an amazing like there's just
nothing that you can do as an officer, which is why I think, as an officer I would be like. Ok, this is a no win situation. What am I doing in my life I came out here to help easel. I came out here to help people's communities and keep people safe and no matter what happens. I'm always the bad guy, I'm always the races, I'm always the murderer. I'm always ruining my own family because of something that I can't control big, enjoy reading Abraham, candy you're gonna call me erases if, God forbid, I save a black girls life, so Why what s shop to work the next day? I don't. I know how you like. I had one thing and when I left this morning, my wife in family said dead. Stop it why Are you going into work today find another job you're gonna get killed, you're going, thrown into jail for doing something right been say. No, I believe in the system. I'm gonna keep stand, Why would you go to work as a pilot, I'm asking police officers? Why? Why
Are you still going to work, I'm glad they are beginning to rid of, but I am not a damn, not man enough to do it. I would be screw there's some too selfish attitudes, That doesn't mean I would like you know. I would just say I would just like to say look. We should a box on our taxes that say I want to plate. I want to pay for the police force and I'll fully fund them, and then we our tax dollars go locally to fund the police, those who say I dont want to, and if you don't pay taxes, if you just don't pay taxes, you're receiving a large sum of money from the government? We still send you a note. I want police protection in my neighborhood and if I call All I want somebody to come, and not a social service worker somebody with a gun. If there's something going on call greater tie me. To cite tied to tax is just a know. I'd be happy with just a survey
you will send a note to everybody's house and then they can say whether they wanted cop to show up or not when when something goes down here they are they don't want. They all say they any they. When I say they, I don't mean any large swathes of communities. I mean these activists, These activists are all saying. I don't want you in my community, okay, let go door to door and asked them. Would you like police to leave you alone? Good luck with? now we may have some problems with like criminal, saying now, and then I think I've still got the criminals house, they're trying to avoid prosecution? There may be some wholesome this plan. My point, though, is that it just really far better than holes in little girls who were just having a bad day, I think I see how easy it is to win mysterious easy. It is to win. If you just don't care, people go and that's the dumbest. I've ever heard Hugh tv you just like yes, but it's better,
then holes in little children's doom I, like you, enjoy the right back in just a second. Wondering which joy you were talking about. Joy, reader, joy, Bay, Har, who quite possibly thee most ill named child of all time. Series really, I don't even think her parents looked at her and went all joy Just brings me joy. Her dad had to go yeah you give her a few years. She'll make everybody miserable. So I am trying to eat healthier and I am but the thing his I don't like. Healthy food. I don't like any of it. You ve heard of a fact suit. Right I mean there's got to be. When are we getting a skinny suit, something that will make me look skinny because I just want treats all. I grew up in a bakery for the love of peat, the

It satisfies my sweet tooth, but it's a protein bar, but not like you know, that's like eating stuff at the bottom of my chalkboard. Usually this is a hundred percent real chocolate, its low car blow sugar. If I'm eating a protein bar as a treat come on, you gotta know it's good and I am Mint Brownie, cookies and cream. The new flavors that are coming out all the time. They are fantastic, go to build bar dot com and use the promo code back fifteen for fifteen percent off your order. Your mouth is: gonna water, just looking at them. Trust me built bar dotcom, promo code back fifty. Your listening to the best of the Glinda programme must avail Riley. I've got about twenty stories. I want to go through today. It's been a very big we
in the news, but we ve got to spend a few minutes on the Chauvelin case. Tell him your thoughts on a case, The introduction back, no best selling author in the world, perspicacious commentator on radio and tv. None of that just now. I like what you? What is that yeah, that's pretty boy! That's pretty much! Those priorities right! You step back when, in these things, if you're a fair minded person giving the truth? Not your career thought so step back, you don't get emotionally involved. for most people All journalists except me, a new under dont, understand I've been I've been pretty passionate about this, but passionate about. Maybe you don't understand it is this. That is why you have me onwards pointed yeah.
so the underlying conviction, the former police Officer- was based on a concept. A legal concept called depraved indifference that's why he was convicted. It really doesn't matter what Minnesota LAW defined as second degree murder. Third degree, murder, manhood. It doesn't really matter what the prosecutor was able to do what is it Hence the jury and me and me: the officer who took George Long live eroded, depraved indifference. and it really was the because I agree with you. It was the last ninety seconds that and answering his turn. This was all about you about the things I mean his own guys were drawn on the rise and all at shop. So if you're gonna, make a case that this verdict was, upon fear,
the jury was afraid for themselves and Allah, that's not true, So if you delude yourself go ahead that during my women we have had fears, I mean if you walk into a court room every day and you see the National Guard out there. You remember what happened last hour that you're gonna process that I think I were adjure if I were a jerk as I agree with you knowing the way Minnesota way right, second degree, murder and everything else. It is intentional its manslaughter, depraved indifference, and that, for this and if I were in the jury room I have when I started, I would have been like. Oh crap man. This is going to be bad for my family, but I think what, by the time the trial was over and I got to the jury room I might have looked at everybody went right, we dodged the bullet here. This is pretty as it was in any decision on the jury, but remember you didn't have to serve on that jury. All
you gotta be added in the jury, lacking in I'm afraid, aid, and I can't make a fair verdict because I'm afraid for my personal, safety, my family and you would have been dismissed discharge. so anyway, that's the point out. The overarching I want to make is in life. there are certain situations. are beyond reasonable doubt, and here is one of them, and so every American should accept that fact and many don't. So that's number one on Shovin now he'll be sentence, Why and here's a cautionary based asked he knew and so did his attorneys that they were gonna get convict the only ass he had was take the stand, look the jurors in the eye and say this is what I did and why I did it. making excuses book an explanation of what was going through his mind, I was the only chance the man had, but he chose not to do it. Well,
If you were the attorney for his defence, would you have had a hot ass many? I would if I would have dragged him up and put him in the in the box. If our the journey and I cared about em our aid, because it your gear, the ad, and that was a hundred to one yeah, that's a hail Marian could have made it. I couldn't make it work as the alternative. The only right, you're right, you're right, you're right, he's gonna hit Solana country for fifteen years. that's the alternative. So Your shot in the eye in an explanation, but anyway, that's over he's going to the penitentiary. George Floyd is dead. That's it. What else ah well of Google the to the other police officers, will be going to trial this summer they'll player, then I gotta go to trial dubbed omega, with the prosecution
nl all serve a little jail down. That's what's gonna happen well, and you think that's right thing to do I would like to say out if I got a decent deal, I would because If you don't play out, then that you he's gonna, give you two or three times more jail time Gazelle voting this the system through it got so I remember Jeffrey Dahmer went to prison and he was shift. I can't imagine being Chauvelin. I don't I mean, what's good outcome how do you do you protect him Xyz going to stay and isolate he'll get an hour to walk around by himself has not at what a terrible life. You know, and you know No one feel sorry for him and the traditional says. I don't feel sorry for him, but I have compassion for him undertook if, if I could- and I probably will do- that I'll, send em all kind of my books
no no I'm talking to an uneven playing field and at least I, have nothing to do with what I have heard a lot of good, but I'm trying to say that compassion is a lot. Where's Americans are lacking it didn't matter. I said you know what I did, but its input now he's he's isolated by God. It's amazing to me. I said Tucker Show on what. When did this happen? Tuesday I said I came out said: look I mean there's two July. I've completely destroyed the law of of of George Floyd and his family destroyed destroyer the sea. The thing was: Chauvelin Chauvelin is in jail, but his family is destroyed and its we have compassion for all of that this week I have been
seeing story after story, it's almost like it was written by media matters, were they say the anything about me saying about compassion for George Floyd or that I thought the verdict was right there, just saying back, says compassion and trying to make it look like I'm fine for him near your ship and activity, Ireland. What he did was but can action? We should be sympathetic for everyone. But this is not a good lesson for people. So we live in the United States of vengeance, that's where where we're living now, not the United States of compassion, the United States of vengeance and because you put forward point of view and you I have lived this together for why twenty five years we lived it together. These people,
mostly on the laugh, but not exclusively. Wanna hurt us and I put forth it, kill us Tonia. Oh yeah, the oh yeah, they would talk to talk to me a little bit about bread far, because this is something that I think Americans need to understand. He getting heat because he said I not defending shoving, but I I can't imagine that he intentionally murdered George Floyd and I had to present agree with that. I don't think he got up in the mornings like I'm going to kill me a black man that not all right and not a level of responsibility. paying it he's paying the but the second degree murder means on intentionally manslaughter back, listen to me I don't want- I don't want it. The ever happen again, and so every
law enforcement officers in the United States or eighty thousand two hundred of them that are working. right now need to understand that their responsibility is much higher. then the ordinary citizen They are armed and the powers of a rest, you, but we are living in unreasonable times what happened, lumber so high old that got that the police officer. It did everything, or I advised I'm gonna- be charged with anything and he's having through this because of low Braun James and others and presented by and who, I hope, will get you in this segment. We are going to die because of that is now dump the shark, if you remember happy days but it'll be getting back to farm and and getting back to his statement, it's true there.
Java didn't wake up in the mornings and say to himself Go out and heard a black person today that didn't happen, but job and apparently didn understand his response. billowy that he has to be possible. And enforce the law, but it also has to be compassionate. I think that is wrong with the job and the verdict the he was charged with and they found him guilty, and I think this is exactly right with reckless endangerment yeah me he was reckless at his job. That doesn't mean he was intentionally doing. It knows what reckless the people who leave and there are millions of them, tens of millions, people who believe that law. enforcement in America, an animal ward, black people- you
these situations to re enforce that belief, and you never gonna reason them out of it In writing. While I'm not gonna play the game, I play the game by reinforcing it by he did intentionally kill, no, we didn't, but if our bread farms, visor. I say before you weighed in to this you I have to acknowledge certain things, so you don't leave yourself open for unfair attacks. You know if you watch a nose, bananas we get em area did back we again produced the statistics from thousand nineteen and two thousand and twenty on unarmed black people being shot by police it's over a thousand a year. Well, or a thousand a year which that's what the average that's. What the average person believes thousand people already and in that thirty, for two years.
Many perhaps most of the unarmed black people, who by police. Had a knife. for a baseball bat or a vehicle where they were trying to run over the cops. So this is the fact Those facts were compiled by the Washington Post I didn't even use FBI facts because I knew what the counter would be on that, but Washington, post, you can look it up YO, Ribera one set out right now. With Mr Bill Orient Riley from Bill, O Reilly, dot com. His latest best seller is killing crazy horse and he comes out with a new one. Actually, I think this is more of his current best seller cause it's already making the lists, and it's not even out until next month, and that
is killing the mob, probably less, but this is the best one, the programme we welcome. I believe, for the first time to the programme author of the devil's hand and the terminal list, which show the terminal list is being adapted into an Amazon prime Series with Chris Pratt, which I mean bad, it's kind of a good CAS call their jack as the author and welcome to the programme jack area, do a great just a mushroom beyond its not a beer. Thank you. When you word, when you were writing terminal list, did you who did you know that you thought this is going to be a big big deal and when you got Grass Pravda, be that's fantastic
I'm a child of the eighty. So as I was, writing the character its hard, not to think of someone playing that character in the movie because, as you grow up greeting alleys novels and expecting the one day right, novel I got yourself. You just picture going to the big screen accords out leaving services. Didn't exist back then in that's an option now. But, as I was writing I thought of crisscross playing the role and did you really surreal that now it does? I started writing in December twenty fourteen and then the optional, not January twenty eight game before even it shelves. So I was the real to me, I have I've seen him do a couple of post where he's just knowing his carnies like this is the amazing gonna be amazing. It's really ill it, but it's cool. I really like in the eye is great need of such a night. And anyone who goes directly to twenty dangers. The signing of the seven equalizer I wasn't there last week and there are three hundred and fifty people out there working on the same sex,
military operation with Gratitude services, the logistics feeding the army, the advanced one up there, the commanding officer, curses Lendal doomed commander, setting the tone, the weapon, the guy, the explosive guy transportation. It's just like a military operation in, and I I couldn't be more thrilled. About the devil's hand, those just come out. The acid support one and the same Greece, and for this one I really want to take a breath at put myself in the enemy shoes, because I thought that alot. While I was in this you'll teams, I continue to think about it today as an author and citizen, the enemy is had twenty years almost to look at our cards for play, poker, look at our playing those cards and then take those lesson and apply them to a future game. So, while I asked my What if I was a ran China, North Korea, Russia? but you burned out individual a terrorist organisation. What would I have, from the last twenty years, and what what apply going forward, so that form the basis, but then one outlines
August a point. Nineteen, the catalyst that moves. The plot forward is a buyer weapon attack When covert head, I was deep in the research on infectious diseases the weapon as action of infectious diseases that history as well as I do. Answer that when it hit and it became more timely novel. Then I initialling bought at the outset Have they learning it all started? Reading this last night's, I'm gone very far. Apologise for that. Started reading it last night and I was so intrigue because I think you're in this is why I love action of fiction writers. You you have to take things that are real and up until recently, you no fixed, Hasta, make sense and has to feel like it actually could. And but in today's world absolutely Think good at elephants. It could rain elephants today and I'd. Go ha, didn't that coming but ok
what did they learn from us, but are we actually it right there? You sure, Please lot harder today, because you are right some of the things that happened over the last year and a half do you never can tell people what they gave its science fiction Nanjing fiction, but so, when looking at all wants to go ahead with the basis of the novel being what the unease learning from us an hour. They are adapting, went over it once again, there are learning from our response to go with a summer of civil unrest the continues today their learning from that a very contentious cathedral and election cycle. They are certainly learning from that, but specifically to the boy weapons out of the house when they look at infection rich and mortality rates, as they pretend to curb it and see what we did? ourselves with something that has one zero zero. Three issues idle mortality rate. Well, what? If something has at which just out there by weapons, women.
eighty five percent, ninety percent mortality rate. Just imagine what we would do so that really that really form the basis of this novel and now People are more in tune with that. I can see we shut down the country for something yet the number of people. What will we do if it There was a wide number of people I followed, so we only we taking notes here, when you, when you look it it's going on, I feel like living in in an act in thriller right now with the intrigue that is happening with the deep state and the the game, Is it or played in Washington and not really knowing who's in charge. You know at times on the right articles that are happening in the protests in the street, and it's not, a coincidence, and then you know with the great reset these corporations coming an colluding with one another to you. No help move things along it
is like we're. Living in a I don't even know a bit a combination of one year works in some awful day. Dopey in Huxley book. It really is and it is certainly give me a lot to work with India and the trailer genre. That's for sure, and the military we talk about walking into an l ambush. Let you watch online or elbows on the two types of basic ambushes from beginning of time, and essentially what walking right into an l ambush with big lesson outside it but on the other side show an ambush would be something like right across the street from each other shooting at someone in the middle or Yahoo ill each other in Algeria, your field, the fire, don't don't you know the people? You don't want you, but put this mass of.
a fire down on whoever walk into that L. Il that's what we're doing right now, we're walking right into this l and there's almost there's hard, there's not much that we can do about it as those whose big big government has so much control, and There are other right their hand in hand with big tat. You can old all that information, and we just continue to walk right into it problem I ran into when I got about October November last year being in the enemy shoes for over a year? I thought, oh, my goodness. I look I will hear if I was the enemy I might just watch from the outside? Our need. Did I because we're doing a pretty good job of care and ourselves, apart from the inside out yourself at a figure, which I which I did, but In reality, we are doing illegal job doing enemies, job for the right? Now I I will tell you that I've I've said for a long time. There's gonna come a time when all of our enemies will see the same moment and they'll all say now, go go. Go go: go
because we are we're doing all of the work in there just waiting for that moment do do you think we're close to that moment? Check That's exactly right here in the real question is one that moment: that's what they're asking themselves to this is this is new territory, but they tend to think obviously in terms of the e, and almost at least what say, central Asia? I will. We think in terms of these, for your election cycles, maybe eight for the real, deep thinkers among us, but they, by their time they can be patient. They study their history, which is something we do not who is something our elected officials and our senior military leaders do not do. For some reason they don't put the time, energy and effort into studying the paths to make good decisions going forward based on wisdom, so the enemy has has advantage in that respect.
