Starting point is 00:00:00 Be advised that this show is not for children, the faint of heart, or the easily offended. The explicit tag is there for a reason. Recording live from Glory Hole Studios in Chicago, this is Cognitive Dissonance. Every episode we blast anyone who gets in our way. We bring critical thinking, skepticism, and irreverence to any topic that makes the news, makes it big, or makes us mad. It's skeptical. It's political.
Starting point is 00:00:54 And there is no welcome at. This is episode 305 of Cognitive Dissonance, Cecil. Here we go. 305. 305. That's my weight class. That was. That's your fighting weight, buddy.
Starting point is 00:01:12 I know, I know. I'm trying to trim down to a nice 305. I haven't been that size since eighth grade. Back when I could buy clothes at stores. Oh, man. Those were the days, man. Oh my God. A nice, you know, 305 is a, that's a, that's a slim fit, right?
Starting point is 00:01:36 They have to like, you have to like tape, you have to like take one belt and then like in one of the holes, put another belt. You like go to a – you go to the – Oh, yeah. That's my belt's belt. Yeah, I need that. I need that. That's my double belt.
Starting point is 00:01:50 I'm good with those. Do a little traveling. I'll have two of your finest rows, please. Sir, that's six seats. Yes, I know. I'm traveling light. I'm not bringing luggage. I'm bringing my chihuahua along.
Starting point is 00:02:04 It needs one of those seats. That's it. Yeah. Oh'm bringing luggage. I'm bringing my chihuahua along. It needs one of those seats. That's it. Oh my god. I will say I recently traveled. I took a little vacation with my boys. We went out to California. We're in Illinois. We went out to California. Hopped on an airplane. I will say for fellow
Starting point is 00:02:20 travelers out there who have an opportunity to do the lap child or the child gets yeah or the seat child child gets his own fucking seat yeah buy your kid a seat or it's like tipping at a restaurant if you can't buy your kid a seat you cannot afford it can't afford to go it's it would be fucking like i had the whole row like it's three of us like it's my it's my son my other son and me right the two-year-old was pretty much on my body the whole time but you have a place to put him when he falls asleep yeah you can throw him generally in the direction of the
Starting point is 00:02:51 window or aisle or whatever they'll give you enough pillows to make it a soft landing i don't even care i you know i don't even care it's soft landing hard landing fucking i'll tuck him up in the overhead compartment like on a four-hour journey you're just like get off my body get off of it i got sunburned to shit because i'm a fucking midwestern i go out to california you're basically a chud i've never seen the sunlight before right yeah i'm fucking straight lobster the glowing ball in the sky yeah it burns it burns and the best part is is you only spent about 45 seconds outside yeah i know i just opened a window like that's all it was i just i opened a window it's like the end of terminator when like you know the fucking yeah you go away and like a freaking body turns to ash
Starting point is 00:03:38 instantly just poof i get sunburned standing next to somebody bright. That's how bad it is. Like Thomas Smith comes in the room. No, I said somebody bright. Oh, my God. But like that little fucker was on my body and it's fucking sunburned. He's got those little fucking two-year-old claws. You know, he's just like he's's like this little fucking Velociraptor fingers.
Starting point is 00:04:06 And I'm just like, please stop touching me. And generally throughout most of my life, I'm like, please somebody touch me. Small humans are genetically engineered to be annoying. Oh my God. They make the worst sounds. They're sharp. They bite things.
Starting point is 00:04:21 They slobber everywhere. They smell weird. Like seriously, they are genetically engineered i'm surprised there are not more baby deaths like where you just drown your own kid i just don't get it if they if if you were not programmed and this is true like the world's worst alarm clock is what it is and it goes off all the time it goes off it's like it's like it's fucking self-setting garbage it's like getting an alarm clock that pukes on you and smells always like shit you can take the baby out of the bathtub
Starting point is 00:04:56 and it's like i shat you're just like are you fucking kidding me why would you do that i put you in here because you just shat how How could you have that much shit in you? It's because you shake them all the time and it just falls out. Dude, I was watching this stand-up comedy with Jim Jefferies the other night. And he's talking about like he impregnated his girl and they had to go through all these child classes, right? And one of the videos they had to watch was a 40-minute video called Don't Shake the Baby. And he's like, it's 40 minutes long. It's great. I hate to and he's like he's like it's 40 minutes long it's great i hate to do it he's like it's 40 minutes long he's like but it's all there in the title it's like what else is there he's like he's like there's not going to be like
Starting point is 00:05:34 a section in the middle but what if i'm really angry so cecil we would be uh how do you transition I don't know from dead babies I don't know dead dead adults let's go to dead adults so many yeah so uh we just got to start we just got it we just got to have the conversation let's start talking about um you know what's kind of been blowing up everybody's uh world lately is all of the fucking crazy shootings that have been all over the internet. The two, the Castile one and the Sterling one, and then also
Starting point is 00:06:11 specifically the five police officers that were shot dead in Dallas. And I want to talk about the Dallas one a little bit to sort of work into the Alex Jones story that we're going to be covering jesus christ we're going to transition yeah we're going to transition to alex jones from this um and because
Starting point is 00:06:30 uh because you know the two the two that's like going ass to mouth i'm just saying like it's just it's so ill-advised it's like going it's like going ass to pussy and then she gets an infection. You know what I mean? That's what it is. No, but seriously, the two shootings that happened, there was the one that happened with Sterling where they were struggling with the man on the ground. There was a gun in his pocket. One of the officers, while he was on top of him, just shoots him.
Starting point is 00:07:00 Just point blank shoots him. Puts the gun on his chest. And just shoots him. Iuts the gun like on his chest. And just shoots him. Just like purr-tunk, purr-tunk. I mean, that's fucked up. And they had already tased him, I think, at a certain point. I thought I saw it. And they had fucking pinned his arms to the ground.
Starting point is 00:07:13 It was pinned to the ground. And then the other shooting was a man in his car. And he was a concealed carry or a carry. He had some permit for the gun. And the officer, when he reached for the permit or reached for his license, shot him. And the officer, while screaming in the window, says, why did he reach for the gun? And the woman who's taking the Facebook video is saying he wasn't reaching for it. He's reaching for the ID, which you told him to do. I don't, you know, clearly there's still some things going on there that you don't know.
Starting point is 00:07:47 But another man shot dead, another black guy shot dead by the police. And then. Still buckled in, right? Yeah. Like, you know, you don't get to see the video of the event. Yeah. So let's be very, very clear about that. You don't get to see the video of the actual event.
Starting point is 00:08:02 You see this man dying yeah and it is troubling to watch somebody die yeah like you see him actively dying and then die yeah and it looks like it looked like he was buckled into me i thought i saw the buckle so and he appears to still be buckled into his fucking car his car at the time um and so that happened and then right afterwards there was a black lives matter protest that happened down in dallas terrible and then uh shooters just started shooting cops just started shooting into the into the crowd of cops that were sort of ten of them kills five kills five of them yeah and tom you don't know how they got rid of him i don't but so he holed himself up in in an area and was uh there was some negotiations going on but but they didn't wind up negotiating.
Starting point is 00:08:46 What they did was they ran a robot in there with explosives, and they blew him up. They essentially sent a boomba. They did not! They did, I swear. They did not! That's amazing! They just rolled in, and they blew his ass up. No, they did not!
Starting point is 00:09:00 Yeah, and they did because I had heard. Wait a minute, wait a minute. Hold on. Are you fucking with me? No, it's not a real. It's essentially a drone killing. They suicide struck him? They essentially drone killed him.
Starting point is 00:09:10 What? Yeah. Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Hold on. What was he holed up in? Like, was he holed up? Now, I had heard, and I have not looked into this since the day of.
Starting point is 00:09:19 So, again, this may change. And this is one of the things I want to talk about with Alex Jones is the media coverage of this. They change, and this is one of the things I want to talk about with Alex Jones is the media coverage of this. But one of the things that I heard was he was inside of a parking garage where they just had no way to send people in to get him. There was no way you could get in there and get him, and he was essentially just going to be there. It was a siege-type situation. Wait a minute, but wouldn't he run out of food and water eventually? I would imagine that he would.
Starting point is 00:09:47 But I also wonder, you know, how many people, you know, what are you going to do? How long do you expect that guy to go and what danger is he to the general population while he's there? You know what I mean? Like there's, you know, eventually he'll run out of bullets too, right? But are you willing to...
Starting point is 00:10:03 But had they not evacuated? Were there other people in the building? I know, but how long are you willing to. But had they not evacuated? Were there other people in the building? How long are you going to keep the area evacuated for? 21 days, 30 days until he runs out of food if he brought water with him? You know what I mean? I don't know. How long did they wait? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:10:17 Maybe 15 minutes. I don't know. It's as long as you have to wait for a Roomba to clean a room. They really blew him up? They blew him up with a Boomba, yeah. That's fucking amazing. They blew him up? They blew him up.
Starting point is 00:10:31 I had no idea. I know. Is that even a thing? It's simultaneously the best and scariest thing that happened all week. I didn't. I had no idea. Is that the first instance of this? It's like Junkyard Wars.
Starting point is 00:10:43 Right? It's like some dude is like, oh, he's really hard to get to. But we really super want to kill him. I don't know. I actually didn't even think that the regular police had anti-personnel bombs. I knew they had like flashbang grenades and shit. But I didn't know that they had like I'm-a-explode-you bombs. Yeah. I don't know how they had like, I'm gonna explode you bombs. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:07 I don't know how I feel about that. I know it leads to some ethical questions because police are allowed to use deadly force. There's like rules of engagement on when they're allowed to use deadly force. Sure. Notwithstanding that this guy just shot 10 people. 13, I thought it was. Was that an inflated number from earlier
Starting point is 00:11:24 on? I don't know. Okay, 10 to 13. Like, it just shot a fucking... It shot a lot of them. Look, one is too many. Like, stop shooting. The Atlantic article that I'm looking at, 12 officers were shot by one gunman.
Starting point is 00:11:36 That's fucking nuts, right? Like, okay, so... Five dead, though. Right. We know that. Clearly a man with the ability and intent to carry out just tremendous and heinous acts of violence, right? So if he ends up getting killed in an exchange, like I don't feel bad about that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:55 But there is something deeply unsettling about somebody holed up in some location and just sending in a bomb to blow them up. I feel like I don't, and I can't, I cannot, I'm just going to be honest with you. Like I'm having a difficult time putting words to it or putting my finger on exactly what I find so unsettling about that. Is it objectively that much different than a man pointing a gun at him? It's, it's, it's one step removed, right? Part of me, part of me wonders, would I feel okay if a guy was in a house and they didn't feel like they could safely enter the house? Would I feel okay with them setting fire to the house? Yeah, I wouldn't, you know, I don't know that I would
Starting point is 00:12:32 feel comfortable. Yeah. Right. No. Uh, but what if they were to enter that house and he were to, he were to have a gun and they think he was threatening and they shot him. Would I feel okay with that? And I, I mean, I, I guess I would say if he already killed or shot 12 people and then killed five of them and was holed up in a place and he had a gun and they pussed it in and they shot him, I don't know that I would say that's, yeah, okay. Yeah, I know. And he still died both ways.
Starting point is 00:12:56 You know, but I don't know what the, there's part of me too that wonders what the difference is. But like, look at the Boston bomber. Right? Like, that guy was holed up in that boat. Do you remember that? You know, they basically shut down Boston. They turned off.
Starting point is 00:13:09 They flipped the switch and turned Boston off. They're like, no more Boston. No more cars in Harvard Yard. It's just the car talk, guys. Oh, they're just as dead. They got to take one of them. One of them's in a vase. Oh, they're just as dead.
Starting point is 00:13:22 They got to take one of them. One of them's in a vase. But that dude was holed up in a boat, right? And the guys in Oregon were holed up in their fucking wildlife refuge. Sure, yeah. And the guys in Waco were holed up. Now, granted, they eventually set a fire. That's like, would you set a fire? Well, in fucking Waco, sure, absolutely.
Starting point is 00:13:44 Maybe. I mean, it's kind of unclear what happened. But nonetheless. There was a fire there,'s like would you set a fire well even fucking waco sure absolutely maybe i mean it's kind of unclear what happened yeah nonetheless there was a fire there though for sure there was a fire fight little boondock saints for you boondock states anyway i just i just it's like at what point do you have tools that are so risk-free to you i guess this is what bothers me i'm not saying this is necessarily the case here but just generally speaking when you have lethal tools that are of no risk to you that's the thing and then and you can deploy them your your i have to think that that colors your decision making in terms of how long do we negotiate? How do we try to come to, because the, I mean, the ultimate goal should be to not kill even killers, right? Look at the Aurora suspect,
Starting point is 00:14:32 Larry. The guy goes into that fucking theater and kills all those people and shoots all those people and he gets captured alive, right? The Boston bomber, he gets captured alive. We have an ability to bring a force to bear. The bad guys, so to speak, and I hate using the term bad guys. It's fucking essentializing and reductionist and fucking ridiculous, but we'll use it anyway for this case. The bad guys are generally one or two guys, right? And they don't have an infinite or nearly infinite amount of resources. So their advantage is the advantage of surprise. I can create a heinous act before you know where it's going to happen and it's ongoing. As it's occurring, you have to react to it. But there's a time. Time is not on the side of the bad guy, right? Time is always on the side of the authorities because they can bring more people,
Starting point is 00:15:21 they can surround an area, they can establish perimeters. They can cordon off a region. They have so many more resources. So the more time goes on, the bad guy, so to speak, is at a greater and greater disadvantage. And I think what's unsettling to me about just being like, oh, no, man, send in a robot. I'm not saying it was that casual, but there's something about that that's too easy that suggests that a response may be a
Starting point is 00:15:46 less considered response, a more lethal, less considered response. I don't know. I think where I'm drawing the distinction is that they use deadly force when they are in danger, right? That's what we think. We think you're in danger in danger your life's in danger we will use deadly force now and in this situation there's no more danger because the guy's held up the guy's hold up he's not able to come out right and now you're standing on the outside saying well i'll just throw i'll just chuck a grenade in there essentially yeah because that's because like why not just do that you know what i mean like why not just feel it's like it's like in russia remember that that situation in russia where the Chechen terrorists had that theater? And then the Russian response was like, well, just flood it with poison gas.
Starting point is 00:16:30 Yeah. And they flooded it with poison gas and, like, fucking killed a whole bunch of people that they weren't even trying to kill. They just fucking, oh, I'm going to use too much of that gas. Whoops. But it's kind of the same thing. It's like, oh, hey, he's fucking held up in that house. It's like your example. Like, well, set it on fire and walk away.
Starting point is 00:16:45 Whatever runs out, set it on fire and walk away. Exactly. Whatever runs out, shoot it. Like there's a, there's a, there's something about that that makes me very uncomfortable. It feels like an act of war rather than like defending the public. You know? Yeah. It's not like we're, it's not an act of justice anymore. Right?
Starting point is 00:16:57 Like we're not trying to get this guy into custody. Yeah. It definitely feels weird. I don't know. I don't know how, I don't know where I stand on it. I don't know what their judgment call was. I don't even know how long they are. They negotiated with this guy because clearly the chief of police was saying that he knew that they'd like to touch on before we move on. One of them is there seems to be an either or. Like you either have to be against the killings of these two black men who were carrying guns and were shot, or you have to be against the killing of these particular five cops from a guy who said that he was mad that cops were killing black guys.
Starting point is 00:17:48 And I think that, one, they are pretty separate incidents. They're very separate incidents. One of them does bleed into the other a little because that's what the guy said his justification was. But you can be outraged at death. You can just be outraged at death. And there seems to be this – as soon as the cops were killed, one of my Facebook feed had this person who posted on it right away like, this is what you guys wanted. All you Black Lives Matter people, this is what you wanted. This is what you want.
Starting point is 00:18:17 You want it. Yeah. And I was just like, wait a minute. I don't know anybody that was like, yeah, now that cops have killed someone, they need to be, you know, they need to see blood. Like, I would never say that. Like, I don't even think the cops that kill these guys should be put to death, right? Like, I don't think that that's a thing. Like, so, you know, but I think that they misconstrue arguments all the time and then they go to the, you know, they wind up putting it, you know, it's always pedal to the metal, you know what I mean? It's always this, you know this full stop sort of thing.
Starting point is 00:18:52 And we run into some real problems, I think, with the rhetoric that follows these killings. The only thing that matters in terms of whether or not the proper application of force was used in an exchange between an officer and a civilian is whether or not the rules of engagement were followed by that officer. I may be I may be using rules of engagement improperly, so forgive me if I am, but like, that's all that matters. Like what was, was this altercation, everything that happened before that altercation is not, is not germane to the conversation, right? Yeah. Okay. Was this guy, you know, maybe he was a terrible person. Maybe he was a wonderful person. None of that makes any difference as to whether or not you get to shoot him during this altercation, that altercation. But there's an attempt on both sides, first of all, to have sides. This is not a sides conversation. We need to take that out of
Starting point is 00:19:37 that. We need to understand that human beings are deeply fallible, and we don't need to position ourselves in these sort of like polar opposite extremes and say, you know, I have to believe in A or B. Blue lives matter. Black lives matter. All lives matter. Black lives matter. That's like if that's the only way that you can conceptualize a complex issue that surrounds things like race and power and authority, you're doing a terrible injustice to the issues that we're really facing. We're never going to arrive at solutions by doing that. We're never going to arrive at solutions. All we're going to do is just, you know, that's actually how you end up with something like the Dallas shooting, right? That's actually how you end up in a worldview like that, when you have these polar opposites, these dichotomous extremes that refuse to bridge gaps and see gray area.
Starting point is 00:20:30 You know, it's interesting, though, and I and I will say this, you know, I do think our police are police. There is something about our police force and about their use of force that is that is certainly heightened. Right. You know, people will say, oh, look, the guy was struggling on the ground. We can't be in the police officer's skin. We don't know what's happening, yada, yada, yada. But you look at list of killings by law enforcement in Canada. How many people do you think they killed this year, Tom? How many people do you think in Canada were killed this year? All right. Well, let me think. There's 36 people in Canada. Right. I'm going to go 1%. No, I'm going to guess 40? By cops. By cops. 40? One. That's a lot less. That's 39 less.
Starting point is 00:21:15 And so let's look up in our country how many that is. And then we got to extrapolate that down by population. By population, right. population. Do moose count? Is there like a three-fifths clause for moose up there? It does count. Actually, when a moose dies, though, you do have to pour a liter of syrup on the ground for your fallen homies. Fallen hoofies? Fallen hoofies. What is it in the States?
Starting point is 00:21:40 Thus far in 2016. Now, if the math worked at one-to-one, it would be 10 because it's about 10 times as many people thus far in 2016 it's 504 fuck off 54 times as many people are killed breakdown of citizens killed by police in the United States
Starting point is 00:21:58 484 of them were male 25 were female 282 I guess had a gun, 88 had a knife. 500 people killed by the police. 509 citizens have been killed this year alone by police.
Starting point is 00:22:13 The body count from the previous year stands at a grand total of 990 people shot dead, according to the Washington Post. Almost a thousand a year. Holy fuck, man. So, you know, I don't want to hear the bullshit of, you know, because if you're looking at Canada, look at us, it's 1 versus 500. If they get to 2 this year.
Starting point is 00:22:35 Right. They doubled. You know what I mean? What they did earlier. Six months in. Six months in. We got another one coming, Jim. We got two.
Starting point is 00:22:41 Yeah. The difference is fucking striking, man. It's striking. Give me a second, though, because this is very? Yeah. The difference is fucking striking, man. It's striking. Give me a second, though, because this is very different. I want to double check something real quick. See, they only have 69 on Wikipedia. Police? Yeah, so I'm wondering where the people are getting their stats from, you know?
Starting point is 00:22:57 All right. Oh, it's just different numbers. People just get different numbers. U.S. police killed more people in 2015 than 14. While the numbers vary from source to source police killed more people in 2015 than 14. While the numbers vary from source to source, the Washington Post cites 975, while The Guardian puts the tally at 1125. The website killedbypolice.net puts police have killed 1,186 people in 2015. The U.S. government currently does not track how many people are killed in police encounters.
Starting point is 00:23:27 Oh, so there's no one central database. The data from killedbypolice.net show, and this is talking about different groups. Clearly, killedbypolice.net sounds like an agenda-based website. It certainly does. But, you know, The Guardian and the other places, you know, they're newspapers. Right. Potentially less so. I mean, these numbers, and they vary differently from other places. Like Wikipedia lists something like 65 so far this year.
Starting point is 00:23:50 Well, where's the difference between their numbers and the other? And I don't know what the difference is. Yeah, that number is massively, massively different. Yeah. But even so, compared against Canada on a population-by-population basis. Yeah, well, let me see something real quick, though. We've got roughly 10 times the population of Canada. They've got one.
Starting point is 00:24:09 We should be at 10. All things remaining equal, right? Canada, 25. How does this compare to other countries? In Canada, 25 people a year die. Thereabouts in the United States, 930 die. Germany, 8. Austria, 5. UK, 8. Austria, 5.
Starting point is 00:24:25 UK, 2. Japan, 0. That's not very many. There's a lot of numbers. You know, the thing is there's just a lot of numbers that you can find and you can pick and you can throw out. And, you know, clearly there's going to be corrections to the numbers that you find, statistics. And, you know, especially if people aren't officially collecting certain numbers, you know, you have to go off what other people have. But, you know, the number difference is startling between the two countries.
Starting point is 00:24:48 And they both have armed police officers. I wonder, too, how much of our gun culture plays into this. Yeah. Because as you mentioned, Japan's at zero. Well, the guns aren't. The assumption, if you're the police in the States, could be a gun is here. There's going to be a gun. There is a reasonable suspicion that anybody could be a gun is here. There is a reasonable suspicion
Starting point is 00:25:06 that anybody could be armed at any time. If you're in Japan, there would not be that same reasonable suspicion that somebody could be armed at any time. So the level of potential violence in any interaction is ratcheted so high up because of our gun culture. I think that may be a problem.
Starting point is 00:25:24 So if I'm a cop, and I know that I pull you over, I have no way to know if you're packing or not. I have no way to know. And so maybe I'm going to have to say, look, I want to go home tonight. I'm going to have to assume everybody. And I don't have to make that same assumption in a culture that is not a gun culture. So I can make an assumption. I can make the exact opposite assumption. I pull you over.
Starting point is 00:25:47 I know you're not packing. I can bring a level of force to bear against you that is greater than you can bring against me. The leveling factor of firearms in the hands of civilians strikes me as a factor that ratchets the potential level of violence up. One of the things I want to talk about, again, this is sort of piggybacking off of that shooting, and this is specifically the Dallas shooting,
Starting point is 00:26:15 is that when things happen in this country that happen to be, you know, like let's call this a terrorist act, right? Because it's what it is. It's a terrorist act. And why are we reluctant to call this a terrorist act? Yeah, it's a terrorist's call this a terrorist act, right? Because it's what it is. It's a terrorist act. And why are we reluctant to call this a terrorist act? Yeah, it's a terrorist act. Absolutely a terrorist act. And I don't want to pass off to people. I saw a page of a bunch of people on Twitter that were like,
Starting point is 00:26:33 yeah, kill the cops, fuck the cops, fuck the pigs, whatever. There's a bunch of fucking degenerates out there that'll post garbage about, like, killing cops is fucking amazing or whatever. And they're just degenerates, right? So, like, I don't even want to talk about people like that because there's there's nothing to say you know what i mean you're just like okay that's stupid they're awful people espousing an awful view they're stupid people like what who cares right um and they're a single moron you know what i mean uh i know that there was one republican who tweeted
Starting point is 00:27:01 something about like this is a race war, Black Lives Matter or something like that. And you're just like, yeah. And they're like, Obama better watch out. Yeah. It's like, that's like, what the what? Yeah, I know. Like there's some and there are some crazy people on the other side. Right. We were just like those.
Starting point is 00:27:13 There are some crazy people. That guy's clearly an insane human being. You know, I have no idea how that guy even fucking can operate a keyboard on his fucking phone. You like look at him. You're like, he's put on his own pants. Yeah. Way to go, buddy. Way to go. Like, oh, to go like oh they're backwards but still you would be surprised if
Starting point is 00:27:29 that guy bagged your groceries exactly right you don't even you'd be like this is the kind of guy who puts the fucking grapes on the bottom and you're just like you asshole you i didn't want wine i want fucking grapes that's a guy who has dress sweatpants yeah right but one of the things that bothers me about whenever there's a terrorist attack is that we live in a – they used to call it the 24-hour news cycle, which means that there's always news coming at us all the time. But right now with the internet and the advances in the way we receive information, it's – we need updates on everything all the time whenever it's happening, right? And it's this idea that no matter what, I should be able to turn on my computer and find out something new about this situation. I should be able to tune in and watch another thing about this thing, and there should be – and the problem with that is you get tons of misinformation with that, right? So what happens is they initially think
Starting point is 00:28:25 there's five people shooting, and then they pronounce it as 12 dead or something. You know what I mean? So the cops will leak information to the media, and the media irresponsibly posts things because they know that there's a need for it. And if they have a break, there will be traffic to our website,
Starting point is 00:28:43 and we'll be able to sell ad space more and blah, blah, blah. And we're the breaking source on this, right? People, I think, are irresponsibly not vetting things as well as they can. And the problem is, is that the first hour, two hours, three hours of one of these things that's happening, we get tons of misinformation. And while it doesn't hurt us, what it does is it spawns this shit like alex jones right so what alex jones i called this yesterday when i was i was talking to a friend in the morning i called this garbage yesterday um i said guaranteed alex jones is going to call this dallas shooting a false flag garbage psyop thing right's made up by the population or something,
Starting point is 00:29:27 where he's going to somehow say it's a planned attack of some sort. And he does. Fucking Alex Jones, George Soros engineered Dallas attack to launch a race war. I called it yesterday morning before because it's so easy. There's nothing more predictable. There's nothing more predictable than Alex Jones. This guy is like the fucking tides. You know what I mean? You know exactly what he's gonna say faithful he's the old
Starting point is 00:29:48 faithful of bullshit good lord and it's just one of the problems is is that this sort of thing feeds into what alex jones's misinformation is going to be after the fact because now that shit changed from the original story beforehand that is used to seed and fertilize all the garbage that these people point out later and be like, well, they said it was 25 people and it's not 25 people. You know what I mean? That's an amazing impression of Alex Jones. It's not as deep. That is an amazing impression of Alex Jones.
Starting point is 00:30:17 But in any case, that's what he's going to say, right? He's going to be like, you know, initially they said it was this and now it's not this. And he's going to point to that misinformation as proof that there has been some sort of cover up. The government's changing their story. That's exactly it. They're changing their story. What's going on here? I want the life extension technology.
Starting point is 00:30:39 It's not accurate information. If you like Alex Jones, you're going gonna love our patron only show which we're doing right after this show today pretty much we're gonna eat tacos i can't do that i can't wait until we do that by the way but before we get to alex jones uh uh why don't we before we get to the alex jones show fully alex jones show let's play a little bit of this now this is very long right wing this is like alex jones four plus yeah it is it is we're kind of tickling alex jones balls right now uh what what i want to do though is mention that even right wing watch will not will not cut him up because either there's a too much gold or b there is no intern that would sit through this there's somebody trying to edit it and they're just like there's
Starting point is 00:31:20 no place to yeah there's no cuts there's no place to stop i am gonna start this at about 11 minutes in but uh but i just want to let you know that uh that uh that this whole thing is awesome but it's like 25 minutes long we're not gonna listen the whole thing okay so this is not 11 minutes in pardon me i just did a double check this is 8 19 i'm going in so this is uh alex jones uh talking about uh the this this is all spurned on by the attack uh in dallas so let's look at some of these numbers as we do this facebook mentions we're Jones talking about the, this is all spurned on by the attack in Dallas. So let's look at some of these numbers as we do this. Facebook mentions. We're also going to put this on YouTube.
Starting point is 00:31:49 I'm going to shoot some other videos that have all the video clips showing it. Look right here. Come on over here. 990 people, the FBI's own numbers, shot dead by police in 2015. Latest numbers we have. Takes a year for these to come out. White people, 494. Now, blacks, only 13% of the population.
Starting point is 00:32:08 They're 258, so that is disproportionate. Okay, but see, 258 total. Let's just say all of those were illegitimate shootings. We know almost all of them were legitimate, but let's just say all 256 were not justified. 258 people dead. Hispanic 172, other 38.
Starting point is 00:32:29 That's a really interesting recipe so far, right? You know what I mean? So far, no exotic ingredients. You know what I mean? No exotic ingredients really at all. Really? Yeah, no, I mean, this isn't one of those Bon Appetit recipes
Starting point is 00:32:42 where you go and you're like, where am I going to find fucking shelled by a gay guy fucking hazelnuts? Where am I going to find those? As an aside, fucking A-right, man. It's like that magazine is a fucking useless as tits on a bull. You look at that thing and it's like, oh, it looks delicious. No store in a fucking 50 mile radius carries. You'd have to go on like a fucking scavenger hunt from store to store.
Starting point is 00:33:07 You get all the ingredients are spoiled by the time you get home. It's funny. They actually like several of the recipes do call for tits on a board. It's just like, well, how do I find that? Unknown 28. And then it goes through the fact that most people killed were mentally ill. You could hear him put his hand on his face and wipe their... I don't know if you heard that, but you can hear that sort of like that.
Starting point is 00:33:30 Right. I know, right? Yeah. Now, those are the facts. Is this the biggest thing in the world? 200 and something black people killed by police? When you can go look at the numbers in Chicago, and it's way above that every summer alone of African-Americans being killed by other African-Americans. It is again that, well, you shouldn't bitch about black guys getting killed by police officers if African-Americans kill more African-Americans. What he's saying is black people are just more violent.
Starting point is 00:34:11 Yeah. Right? Sure. That's what he's saying. He's not going to say that out loud. Yeah. But he is going to directly insinuate that black people or black culture is a violent culture. So if they exterminate themselves, we can exterminate them, too.
Starting point is 00:34:23 Yeah. That's a fucking awful, monstrous, racist way of thinking. If they have less regard for their own lives in their own neighborhoods, then why should we care? I mean, that's what he's saying, right? That's exactly what he's saying. That's exactly what he's saying.
Starting point is 00:34:36 And the problem that he doesn't understand is that those numbers, those numbers of crime with the gang crime that happens, right? That's a small community of people that kill a lot of people, right? And there's a lot of bystanders, bystanders in there, right? So there's these bystander people, they, they don't have anything to do with the, with the, with the, the gang violence that is happening. They just happen to live in a very unfortunate area because they cannot afford anything else. Sure. Right. So you suddenly have death sentence by being poor.
Starting point is 00:35:07 Oh, I'm poor. But the only place I can live is in this Section 8 housing in the worst part of the fucking Chicago where it happens to be tons of gang crime and tons of drug culture. And all of the black market drug stuff that happens happens to the disputes happen to end with gunfire. Sure. And I'm just happen to be a guy here, and just because of the fucking postal code, I have a much better chance of dying than Alex Jones who lives in a big house somewhere. And it's your fault. It's your fault you live there. It totally takes out of context all of this stuff and puts it squarely on the shoulders of the entire race of people.
Starting point is 00:35:45 Well, and I also am appalled at the way that he just blows off like 13 percent of the population. So it's disproportionate. Yeah. Yeah. Pause. Don't blow that off. Yeah. Why is it this proportionate? 258 out of 990 is vastly more than 13 percent of the population. So if this community of people is dying at that high of that that disproportionate a number that that's worth taking a look at yeah right it's at the it's like let's let's at least not blow that off sure can we not do that but then he just like you said he just goes on he's just like i'm just gonna fucking victim i'm just gonna blame you like your lives are less meaningful yeah to use the politically correct term, in Chicago alone,
Starting point is 00:36:26 you've got 52% of blacks never being born since Roe v. Wade. Millions. Not a word out of Reverend Jackson or Reverend Wright and all these Ford Foundation-controlled globalists. Ford Foundation-controlled globalists. Controlled globalists. Four foundation-controlled globalists. Yes, because the African-American community has been so helped by globalization, right?
Starting point is 00:36:53 Globalization. There's a bunch of people on the fucking west side or south side like, man, globalization really hooked us up. Thank goodness for that trade deal. Right? Oh, man, you guys. Hey, how's TPP affected you? Oh, it hasn't. We're still fucking born into fucking poverty in like a school system that's fucking dangerous
Starting point is 00:37:11 to get to, dangerous to come home to, dangerous to be at the whole time. No kidding, right? Close down a school in one neighborhood and kids are crying afraid to walk to the other neighborhood because they're afraid to die in another neighborhood. Because they have to cross gang lines in order to get to class. Oh, why don't they value education? Maybe because you make it fucking impossible for people to get an education. Maybe because you fund education through property taxes,
Starting point is 00:37:33 so poor neighborhoods stay poor. Get fucked. Right. So there's the facts. And they've done this all over the world, and they're doing this here right now, starting a race war. I talked to a friend yesterday who was going to go to a meeting a business meeting with a lady she's known for years
Starting point is 00:37:49 and the woman is caucasian she had a boyfriend she got pregnant by uh from india and she was too depressed to come out yesterday, last night, for the business meeting because her son is part Indian and she's afraid he's going to get killed by the police. Indians have one of the lowest crime rates out there, other than white collar crime, statistically. You can't even find the statistics Indians being shot. He's arguing with a woman who wouldn't come. What are you doing? I don't even know what's happening. He went off the deep end.
Starting point is 00:38:27 This is amazing. I love how aggressively he misses the point. Like, right? He misses the point so perfectly. The point, like, they're fucking parallel lines that will never
Starting point is 00:38:43 cross. Like, the point's over here. You know what it is? It's just two brain cells lines that will never cross. Like the points over here. It's just two brain cells. They'll never meet. They're never going to clunk together to make a thought, you know? A fucking cogent one anyway. Jesus Christ. She thinks there are cops everywhere wanting to kill her son, who's five years old. Like a gang leader?
Starting point is 00:39:03 What? He's like, hey man, get off my swing. I saw the rock around here, boy. Just like my daughters saw an ad on TV for this new shark movie coming out. They've always gotten in the ocean when they were little. I went to the beach a few days after they saw the ad on TV and I couldn't get either one of them in the water. Oh my fucking God. Oh my fucking God.
Starting point is 00:39:30 What is your point? What are you saying? He's going to tell you right now. I'm going to kill myself. I'm going to kill myself. Here we go. I can't argue with the brainwashing. You got brainwashed by one commercial?
Starting point is 00:39:46 You have the stupidest daughters in the world. Look, man, it's the Jaws effect, right? It's the Jaws effect. It's not new. This has been part of the world. Yeah, people are scared of the fucking unknown. But fucking police shootings for brown people? That's not an unknown.
Starting point is 00:40:01 That's a statistics you actually just cited a few moments ago where brown people are disproportionately killed right it's 13 you actually pointed out the disproportion i can't get through to them now they've been in the ocean since they were three years old jesus they saw one ad what's this new shark movie coming out the shallows one ad. What's this new shark movie coming out? The Shallows. The Shallows. One ad. I'm going to kill myself. I don't have a choice. I don't have a choice. This business lady couldn't come out because she's so liberal and so brainwashed.
Starting point is 00:40:37 She's so liberal. She's so liberal. She's super liberal, man. That, oh my God, her Indian son's going to be killed by the police or by racist white people. She's a grown adult. It's the exact same crap. So no, I don't just, people say, you used to really criticize the police. What are you doing kissing their ass?
Starting point is 00:40:57 I'm not kissing anybody's ass. I follow the truth. I follow reality. We fight warrantless searches. We fight the police state. We fight the phony drug war. We fight all the things that have screwed this country up. You've never fought anything, you punchy little fucking half-man.
Starting point is 00:41:13 What would you fight? He actually has gotten more buff lately. I don't know if you know this. Alex Jones? Yeah, yeah. Really? He's bulking up. He tears his shirt off.
Starting point is 00:41:24 He's hulked out. He plays that Hulkamania song. He's got the strings tied around his biceps so his arms look bigger when he comes out. Here I come. The average police officer that I talk to is awake and is involved and knows what's going on. The general public is not awake. The military is awake. The police are awake.
Starting point is 00:41:51 It's time to awaken the public and realize we're all being manipulated massively. Wait a second. Wait a second. So like fucking the police and the military, there's some conspiracy out there that includes both police and military that the public doesn't know about oh my god is that a lot of people if if it was everybody nobody told their wife right that's what i was about to say like so it's the police and then their spouses and then the military and that's that's like so many people who are not currently in but have served right
Starting point is 00:42:22 and then there's let's say their spouses and then they probably tell their kid it's no fucking i think it's a conspiracy that involves like 40 of the population it's not a conspiracy that's just stuff people know now right it's not a conspiracy at all donald trump often appears on fox which is ironic because a fox often appears on Donald Trump's head. So this next story comes from the Washington Post. And this is actually just a political story. We want to talk about Trump. Pretty much the best story.
Starting point is 00:42:55 He's pretty much. It's pretty much. He's got the best stories. He's pretty great. It's incredible. He's got the hottest AIDS. Cutest campaign girls. That's it.
Starting point is 00:43:08 Hey, why don't we get that campaign girl out here with the bikini on, huh? Every time they raise a dollar, she has to come out like a ring girl holding up. She holds up a giant image of the dollar. Just do that shimmy shake with the hips. The hip walk. Yeah. I love that walk. It's one foot crosses over the other as she goes. Walk like a Siamese cat.
Starting point is 00:43:25 You walk like you're begging to twist your ankle at any moment, right? So this is from the Washington Post. GOP leaders alarmed by Trump's devastating fundraising start. And this is kind of an interesting article. There were a number of articles that dovetail or were similar that we found. Basically, Trump's not raising enough money. Yeah. And his attitude is like, look, I've got plenty of money.
Starting point is 00:43:47 I have unlimited resources. I could just throw a look. I sell a couple two-tree buildings. I don't care. Whatever. Here's the thing. I'll just reach in a Monopoly board. I'll grab a couple of those hotels, and I'll put them up.
Starting point is 00:43:57 Hey, I'll be able to get great. When they land on fucking Park Place, I got them by the balls. You know what I mean? Seriously, this guy thinks he can just walk up to one of his buildings with a fucking potato peeler and shave off money. You know what I mean? That's what he thinks he can do. He's treating his buildings like a fucking gingerbread house. He's like, I'm hungry.
Starting point is 00:44:18 I just go. I take a bite out of one of these buildings here. Doesn't matter. Throw a man out of candy canes and hookers. There's not a lot of carbs in that. I like it. It keeps Trump's fucking figure nice. You know what I mean? I look incredible. What do you want?
Starting point is 00:44:30 Pretty much the best penis. I'm saying it's tiny like my fingers, but it's very regal. It's regal. That's how I'm going to describe my dick. I'm going to give you like a little fucking, like a purple cape to put on my cock. I only wear purple condoms with a crown.
Starting point is 00:44:47 I'm going to drop my dreagle. I'm going to drop my dreagle and be like a little fur-lined cape on my dick. A little, like a little, very little, like a little crown on that thing. It looks like how Randy Macho Man Savage did when he was Randy the King for a while. Comes out in his big ass cape with a crown. There you go. It looks like fucking, it looks like Burger King. I'll do some sounding. I'll put a little scepter in the fucking
Starting point is 00:45:07 head of that thing. Like the Burger King. Every time I drop my pants, I'm going to blow the... It's a very small sound. It's more like... It's the world's saddest trombone. It's the world's saddest king. No, but so Trump – one of the things that Trump is doing, which I think is – it's amazing.
Starting point is 00:45:38 I just found this out yesterday listening to a show Jamie and I were talking. And we had this long conversation about Trump and what we thought he was trying to accomplish because we're not convinced that the presidency is it. We're not convinced that that's it. Trump has been taking – like raising some funds, but some red flags have gone up in the Republican Party because he is – Guys, I don't think he's serious about this. He's not only not raising enough money to – for his – for the local branches of the RNC to then piggyback off of the large amounts of money that are normally generated by the president. The president normally generates a ton of money. The presidential candidate generates a ton of money. The presidential candidate generates a ton of money. That money then is distributed to the RNC's local areas so they can do grassroots efforts to try to dig up voters through knocking on doors and calling people, call banks, and then building signs and fucking, I don't know, like giving free hand jobs at fucking massage parlors.
Starting point is 00:46:40 It's elephants for everybody. Whatever you have to do. An elephant in every pot. Whatever you have to do to get votes, they do it in these small little centers. And what happens is the gubernatorial candidates and the local Senate candidates and then like fucking dog catcher candidates, they all use that center to then go out and they use the facilities that the RNC provides to help spread the word about all the RNC candidates that are – and then also Trump, right? So Trump as well. But Trump's the main guy who gets it because fucking nobody is writing checks for dog catcher. They're writing checks for Trump to get in office because they think it's the more
Starting point is 00:47:13 important position. But he's not raising enough money for those people. Like buy a whole lot of money. Buy like millions and millions of dollars. Hundreds of millions. Lots of money. Lots and lots of money. And he doesn't give a shit. And he doesn't care.
Starting point is 00:47:26 This guy couldn't fucking care less if he put a gun to his head and was like, I pretty much got the best not caring. When they call him on a time, he even says, yeah, it's amazing, isn't it? It's wonderful. It's wonderful how much money I'm raising. And they're like, no, no. What I just said was that you're not raising money. He's like, it's wonderful, isn't it? Yeah, I love it.
Starting point is 00:47:42 I just gold-plated this person over here. This is my gold-plated this person over here. This is my gold-plated person. I have this person follow around me to show how quality Trump is. That's what I do. You killed him. He doesn't even care. Pretty much the best corpse.
Starting point is 00:47:58 He says he's pretty much the best gilded corpse I've ever seen. We bronze our aides. I don't care. It doesn't matter. We start with the shoes. We dip them the whole way in. Kills 100% of them. Doesn't matter. Get more. I'm like, I don't care. It doesn't matter. We start with the shoes. We dip them the whole way in. Kills 100% of them. It doesn't matter.
Starting point is 00:48:07 I get more. I'm like, I don't care. Who wants to be my aide? Get in the fucking vat of bronze. He says, the billionaire developer increased his line of credit to the campaign by an additional $2.2 million.
Starting point is 00:48:16 That was nothing. The smallest money he's shell out so far. But he said in a statement Tuesday, and this is a quote, if need be, there could be unlimited cash on hand as I could put up my own money. That's not true. It's not unlimited. Of all could put up my own money. That's not true.
Starting point is 00:48:25 It's not unlimited. Of all the things that are not true, that's not true. I love it. Unlimited. I could just have unlimited money. Yeah, pretty much all the money. Part of me wonders, like, do you know how money works and how much you have? Like, you don't have unlimited money.
Starting point is 00:48:38 Well, first off, unlimited is a stupid thing to say. That's number one. Number two, even if you're a billionaire right these these campaigns uh the last time i want to say that uh that the uh what's the fucking robot who ran last hello i am romney i am not made out of parts romney got work he's like something it's like if junkyard Wars was challenged to put together a candidate. They have like the blueprint drawing and somebody sketches out Romney. Look, this isn't going to work unless he's in dad jeans, okay?
Starting point is 00:49:21 No, no. He's too in touch with reality. Push him further to the edge. But anyway, Romney, I want to say there was 500 million plus. It was a lot of money, right? Yeah, right. Trump is a billionaire, supposedly a billionaire. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:49:36 It's hard to tell with these really rich people how much money they actually have. But liquid assets versus just fucking assets is a totally different thing, right? Could Trump sell off some of his assets and get some money? Yes. Could he sell off enough to fund his campaign? Maybe, maybe not. I mean, there's a lot of ifs there. And one of the things that happens is Trump is actually getting money off this campaign.
Starting point is 00:50:00 So what he's doing is he's charging the campaign the money that's coming in from the donors he's charging them money to pay himself money to fly himself around because he's paying his private jet company that he owns to fly himself around. Then he's also paying his facilities places that he's holding these events at
Starting point is 00:50:19 charging money to there so he can make that money. So he's charging into this kitty that he's growing from people's donation dollars. He's just fucking with us. That's amazing. Like, no, at this point, I don't believe this campaign is serious at all. I'm kind of coming around to the idea that this guy is just fucking with us. I am really patiently waiting for the moment that the RNC has their big hootenanny or whatever they call it.
Starting point is 00:50:49 The RNC, the Republican National Hoedown. The Republican National Jamboree or whatever. Jug band jamboree or whatever the fuck they do. They get the guy with the fucking watch board up there playing that thing. I can't wait until they have that. And they finally, you know, they finally have some fucking, you know, the Republican Pope put the fucking like the Republican candidacy crown on fucking Donald Trump's Burger King head. They fucking somehow stuff his hair underneath it and they give it to him. I want to hear his first and second speech. Now, when he's talking to his base, right, the base there, and the people who go to his rallies, he talks
Starting point is 00:51:26 yokel to them. And he does a good job of yokel speech. Sure. You know, he's great at it. He uses short words with one syllable. Tiny, tiny sentences that match his tiny fingers. And he does a really good job of that. But I am really curious what's going to happen one, when he starts arguing
Starting point is 00:51:42 with Hillary on things. Because now, you know, and this was pointed out again, I had another good long conversation. This is Jamie who pointed this out to me. He was like, one, when he starts arguing with Hillary on things, because now, you know, and this was pointed out again, I had another good long conversation. This is Jamie who pointed this out to me. He's like, look, Trump and and Rubio and Cruz and they were all talking about the same stuff and they all kind of had the same idea how this stuff happened. Trump just had a better way of putting it and a better way to reach the audience to make other people feel like those other people were bad at their jobs, right?
Starting point is 00:52:07 Sure. There's going to be a different narrative, though, when he starts arguing with Hillary on things. Now it's a competing narrative. It's not we're all trying to tell the same narrative just different ways. Yeah, who tells it better? Now it's a competing narrative. I'm not convinced that the way he's been talking to these people up until now is going to work on the mass public. Do you think he'll change it? I really do think he,
Starting point is 00:52:31 uh, he can be the most centrist candidate we've ever had because I don't think he has, I think he's like water. He'll just fit in any vessel you give him. And I think. Problematically though, Clinton's the same way in a lot of ways. Yeah. You know, it's going to be interesting because neither one of them seem to be ideologically, you know, tied to one side or the other. They're they're they both just want the same thing, which is to win this election. That's what they want. We have two candidates who don't want to affect any like they don't have. They don't. Neither one of them seems to have a real agenda that they'd like to propose. They both their agenda is to win this election. That's the agenda here.
Starting point is 00:53:08 They're both going to stand up at the debate and be like, but I want it more. Stomp my foot. Well, I think it's going to be really interesting to hear him say his speeches to the public rather than the people he's been talking to thus far. Because I feel like if you're just the middle of the road guy, have you been following every speech that Trump has given? You know, if you're still undecided, right? If you're still undecided right now. I don't even understand how that's possible. Are you listening to all the different speeches you can get your hands on to try to figure
Starting point is 00:53:35 out who exactly your candidate is? Or are you waiting for the debates and just not paying attention to politics until it happens? That's almost everybody. And I kind of think, you know, look, you don't have that much time to invest in one a single vote. And especially if you're in an electoral state, that doesn't matter. Right. So you don't have enough time to devote to that. So like the rest of everybody else, you're going to wait until the actual debates happen.
Starting point is 00:53:57 So while you're while these people are drumming up their base, what Trump is doing is he's he's fundraising essentially still. That's what he's doing. He he's not even doing much fundraising. He's not doing a good job of it either. Like, that's the crazy part. He's just walking around with his cock out, being like, everybody take a look at me. Look what I got. I got my cock out. I can do what I want.
Starting point is 00:54:13 I can kill that hooker. No one even cares. I bronzed this thing. Small amount of bronze on it, though. One thimble full of bronze. I got some leftover bronze. In the name of Jesus, we speak that. I got some leftover broads. In the name of Jesus, we speak that.
Starting point is 00:54:30 So this story comes from Cincinnati.com. What kind of feeling? I'm high on believing. So this story comes from Cincinnati.com. Secular and Christian worlds collide at the Ark. Collide. Collide. Are you kidding me? Well, the secular world is a little cushy. That's all I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:54:58 So the collision couldn't have hurt that much. It's fine. It's fine. No one even noticed. Secular world has a few pounds to lose, if you know what I mean. So, in Kentucky,
Starting point is 00:55:12 which, for those of you keeping count, is still a state, but it's one no one cares about. It is still part of the union by default, right? Because it's kind of in the middle, and to just give it away would be just... The thing is, is I basically want to get rid of all the y'all states.
Starting point is 00:55:29 And this is a y'all state. I like that. I like that. But if it's just like a regular person, like Bobby Carey. Yeah. Y'all is fine. Yeah. I can let a couple y'alls go by Bobby Carey.
Starting point is 00:55:39 But if you're in a position of authority and you y'all at us, like somebody's like... Don't you be y'alling at me. Right? If you're in a position of authority and you y'all at us, like, right. Like, don't you be y'all in a me. If you're like a senator, for example, from the great state of Kentucky. Why can you use those words in that order? No, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:55:54 That's allowed. You can't do it. Honestly, this is a place where fucking people make bats for a living. This is a place. This is a place where meth is considered a food group, right? It's the top of the food chain, motherfucker. I don't know. It's fucking cereal.
Starting point is 00:56:11 It's how we keep our coal miners mining. You get it at the Starbucks. That's all I'm saying. As if a Starbucks could stay open now. They've always got $4. That's ridiculous. I mean, not all at the same time. Not four at the same time.
Starting point is 00:56:24 No, no. You have to group a whole lot of them together. Right. That's like four checks. And then you have to pawn some of their teeth. We've got to sell the family estate. We're getting a fucking double latte. Do you want whipped cream?
Starting point is 00:56:37 What do you think? I'm fancy. I want 12 straws, though. I guess what we're saying is Kentucky's poor. And horrible. But it's reasonably even more horrible. The best part is that they've already built the ark just in case the flood comes. The thing is, so we've got to get to the meat of the story here.
Starting point is 00:57:03 Ken Ham and his Hamburglars or whatever they built. They robbled up some money. They got $118 million or something. They really did. They got $18 million. But it's a $100 million exhibit. Yeah, but they got $18 million in tax credits, and they got them by sending a guy in striped pajamas with a mask to hold people up and steal their burgers and or large amounts of cash.
Starting point is 00:57:25 Well, you know, he built this ark. You know, it's a life-size ark, I guess. I don't know what that even means. Life-size ark? What does that even mean? I built a life-size god. Okay. Great.
Starting point is 00:57:35 Phenomenal. It's dumb as shit I've ever seen. But I got to say. My life-size dragon. I am not on the side of the American atheist or any of the other cities. I don't blame him for building it. If I lived in Kentucky, I'd want an escape hatch of some kind, too. Like, I would build anything that I thought would get me the fuck out of Kentucky.
Starting point is 00:57:54 I'm going to build the world's first tunnel out of Kentucky. Right. I don't care if it's a boat. I mean, they don't have transportation, so you've got to build something. You've got to get dropped in with a parachute somehow. Clearly, there's no infrastructure, right? I mean, you're not even – You don't even have an interstate.
Starting point is 00:58:07 There's all bridges over Kentucky. Nobody goes in. Nobody goes out. Nobody comes out. It's like prison planet. You know what I mean? It's a little worse. No, it's not Australia.
Starting point is 00:58:21 I mean, it's not. Yeah. Although many of the things there will kill you, including the locals. They're ready. They're ready. Yeah. They went down there and there was a ton of people waiting to get in the lines around the block.
Starting point is 00:58:34 Yeah. To get in. It was just super hard to get in. It was so funny because the hashtag on Twitter was, oh, Noah, you didn't. It's just so funny. It's just so funny. It's just the best. It's so funny. And it was David Silverman and a bunch of other people that were posting down there.
Starting point is 00:58:52 And David Silverman's tweets were hilarious. David Silverman is an American atheist president. He's got photos from inside. He's got photos and some video of him talking. And there's nobody at the exhibits. They have these awesome Great America-like line enclosures that no one is standing in. I love it. That's my favorite.
Starting point is 00:59:12 I don't know if you've ever gone to like – you go to like the airport, let's say, and it's like 1 in the morning. You're born in a red eye or something like that. And they have all those – the security is set up for the morning. So like when you walk in, it's like a maze, and there's no one in it. You're like, I have to walk through this thing for 45 minutes just to get up there. Because you're just walking back. You're basically pacing the room until you get up there. And this is how I know that you and I are different.
Starting point is 00:59:35 Because I see that thing, and I just scooch under them. Yeah, of course you do. But you are a rule follower. And you're like, there's a line. There's no one in the line. There's no one in the line. I see that. I'm like, this is no barrier to entry for me one in the line. There's no one in the line. I see that. I'm like, this is no barrier to entry for me, right?
Starting point is 00:59:47 Like, it's fucking, I'm going. You don't even go underneath it. You just pull it with you. It's like all following you around. You have like six straps on your stomach when you walk up there. I went to. One of them your belt. The rest of them are.
Starting point is 01:00:00 I went to one of those like, as an aside, I went to one of those like where you or rooms or whatever it's an escape room like one of those challenge yeah yeah rooms you know and the whole time i'm like and there's all these things that are like locked and you got to find the key and do the thing and solve the puzzle and the whole time i'm like i turned to the person i was with i'm like i could just break that open like yeah like i'm in a room full of puzzles but the answer could just be, I broke it. I was like, we could be out of here and having sex in 10 minutes. Like, I could be fucking inside you in eight minutes. Like, can we just break this?
Starting point is 01:00:37 Like, this portion of the day, we'll just break this thing open. Let's break it open. Right? And then I'll fucking go gentle touch all night. It's fine. Well, and the only thing is, like, you can just break the wall down. Well, you know what? I'm really not locked in here, guys. It's drywall.
Starting point is 01:00:48 Never locked in anyone's house. There's 16 inches between the studs. I only fill 15 and three-quarters of that when I stick myself sideways. And you know what? That is actually pretty... It's pliable. It's pliable. You can stretch it between things.
Starting point is 01:01:04 But there wasn't a lot of people that showed up to this thing. pretty it's pliable yeah it's pliable you can stretch it between yeah yeah um but uh you know there wasn't a lot of people that showed up yeah both of them but they did get an argument with all three of them and uh and uh one of them was uh was uh a famous ken hovind the young hovind hovind the younger was there It's like a biblical name. You know what I mean? I like that. Hovind the Elder and Hovind the Younger. And Hovind the Younger was there who had just, I guess, recently been on Dogma Debate.
Starting point is 01:01:33 He actually had a debate with – Yeah, I listened to that part of it and I fell asleep. Did you fall asleep? Yeah, I figured. But yeah, he was there arguing with Aaron Ra for a little while. There was some video of that. And really, it was just kind of a lackluster showing for the Kentucky arc. Yeah, well, I think we might want to bolster their attendance, Cecil.
Starting point is 01:01:53 If we get an opportunity. Now, we're not saying for sure. Do they charge by weight? That's number one. Because if they charge by weight, we'll have to pay a whole lot of money. The arc appears to be very structurally significant. I think we'll be just fine. But I displace a lot of water when I get in a boat.
Starting point is 01:02:06 I'm just saying. Well, you probably displace water in a better proportion to float than this fucking ark. It's crazy, actually. When I land on land, I displace a lot of water, too. It's like the T-Rex. You just look at your bottle of water. Oh, Cecil's coming.
Starting point is 01:02:20 The atmosphere around other people crushes them. It changes. But we are thinking about making a road trip down to, The atmosphere around other people crushes them. It's just, oh, what? But we are thinking about making a road trip down to, goddammit, dude, we'd have to go to Kentucky. We would. Are there still roads? Like, what do we do? You have to bring your own ATV to get down to the- They trebuchet you in there.
Starting point is 01:02:36 Good God. Yeah, we're thinking about driving down there, actually. What's up? Blackout a couple of our teeth so we fit in. Possibly doing a road show, so we'll see. That may take us in a couple of weeks. We're looking to see if we can plan that up. But that might be fun.
Starting point is 01:02:47 You want answers? I think I'm entitled. You want answers. I want the truth. You can't handle the truth. This story is from Right Wing Watch. J. Christian Adams compares Obama administration to the Dallas police assailant. Okay.
Starting point is 01:03:05 Yeah. This is going to be some fucking nuancedant. Okay. Yeah. This is going to be some fucking nuanced conversation. Here we go. This is from Sandy Rios' shit show. No, not from Sandy Rios. Turning it down. Seriously, like last fucking time I played this shit on our show, like it was, for some reason,
Starting point is 01:03:22 it's the audio from all these right-wing talk shows that it's always fucking boosted to 12. They went right past Spinal Tap's 11 and went right to 12. Well, the only way they can get their argument across is to scream it. And Michelle Bachman's clip on our last show was fucking practically unplayable. I tried to turn it down as much as I could, and it was still louder than our fucking voices. So this is Sandy Rios. So now the DOJ is rushing. This is Sandy Rios.
Starting point is 01:03:43 So now the DOJ is rushing. The Department of Civil Rights is rushing to Minnesota, I believe also to Baton Rouge, to investigate the shooting of these two black men, two more incidents in the last couple of days here. Will they rush to Dallas? You know. Oh, will they rush to Dallas? Because, you know, those were not black people. Yeah. So.
Starting point is 01:04:04 Do you think they'll go to jail? Yeah, they're going to fucking go to jail. Because they seem to only rush to black people's death. Because the president's black. Has anyone else noticed the president's black? Yeah, I don't know, but... You guys, have you seen this? Because I still can't...
Starting point is 01:04:15 Seven years in, I still can't believe this shit. It's kind of what they're saying. Like, you guys, he's still black. No matter what we say, it doesn't change. Now, admittedly, his hair is white. Because he has to listen to this shit. Well, not for anything good. I mean, Obama called the shooting in Dallas today a calculated and despicable attack on law enforcement.
Starting point is 01:04:41 No, he fucking clearly condones it then. Yeah, no, that's actually what it says on his stamp of approval on law enforcement. He fucking clearly condones it then. Yeah. No, that's actually what it says on his stamp of approval on his desk. Calculated and despicable. He's that evil that he's just like, well, let me give my blessing. This appears to be calculated and despicable. I can only give it from inside
Starting point is 01:04:58 my volcano lair. I'm going to get that fucking tattoo on myself just so I fucking know. Like, hmm, how am I doing? Oh, calculated and despicable another five days for tom you should call one gun calculated the other one despicable well i think that's exactly uh the same sort of thing his justice department has been engaged in not using weapons of course but using the power of the federal government to engage in a despicable and calculated attack on law enforcement for the last seven years. Wait, what?
Starting point is 01:05:30 What? Calculated and despicable attacks as the Department of Justice perpetrated against law enforcement over the course of the last seven years. I bet he gives no specifics. That's how many I bet he gives. Well, he only has five seconds left, so I wonder how specific he can get. I can get a lot done in five seconds. I can have a fucking... I have five seconds. Let's not go overboard and call it a lot, okay?
Starting point is 01:05:52 Five seconds, I'm halfway through my refractory period. And so, no, I don't think he's going to rush to Dallas not to do anything good, at least. Oh, you said that already. He's going to go and he'll say words like, I hate this, and it shouldn't have happened,
Starting point is 01:06:07 and then I won't believe it, and I'll still somehow... I'll still somehow blame this on him and his administration. What could he have done or said? It seriously is, though, like, you know, when you look at the way, even if people are angry, and there's no justifying, period, no justifying the killing of officers. No, no. There's no justifying, period, no justifying the killing of officers. There's no justifying of that.
Starting point is 01:06:27 No. Because we know that, yes, there are bad officers. Yes, there are bad. Yes, there are bad. I mean, in some ways, you could probably look at a lot of law enforcement as ill-trained in some ways, especially when it comes to – I mean, when you look at the numbers that we talked about earlier, the numbers of how many people get shot in the United States versus – by police officers versus any other country in the globe. It's just – it's a tiny amount. And I don't know about North Korea.
Starting point is 01:06:54 But in any case – They get shot with surface-to-air missiles. It covers a lot of ground. I didn't get their numbers from their Department of Civil Rights or whatever. They don't have any civil rights. I don't think police officers are inherently bad people, right? I think that's a silly thing to think, right?
Starting point is 01:07:11 I think that there could be some different ways in which we handle things. There could be different ways in which the police perceive danger. We talked about guns in particular, right? Being one of those reasons why there might be more perceived danger in the United States.
Starting point is 01:07:29 So there's all these other factors that play into it. But to blame police officers as being bad people or out to get you, all of them, you know, as a collective is a silly thing to do. But I don't think anybody out there that's sane is saying that sort of thing. I'm going to play a little more of this clip. Now, this is five minutes long. I don't want to get all the way through this, but I do want to play a little more of this. This is, again, more Sandy Rios with this Jay Christian Adams. Find this. Well, unfortunately, I don't have anything to add to the details, you know, other than it's like so many of us probably experienced waking up today. Well, there's a lot being said now in speculation.
Starting point is 01:08:05 In fact, well, let me just say this. The Dallas police are saying, reporting, that they have three in custody, three shooters in custody, one of them killed himself, and they're saying that they're being very quiet. They're not really talking much. What do you think's going on?
Starting point is 01:08:20 There's no way of knowing until we hear from them, but what are the possibilities, Christian, of who's behind this? How about some irresponsible speculation then? Like, how about, look, I love when you start off and you're just like, look, I don't have any facts. It's so awesome. I don't know what's going on. It really is.
Starting point is 01:08:35 It's great. But do you just want to wildly speculate? Do you just want to wing this a little bit? Is there any way that you can wing this? Holy shit. Look, hey, can we just put words in their mouth? Our audience is too stupid to understand. You're basically saying it. Our audience is
Starting point is 01:08:47 too stupid to understand the difference between what they said and what we said. Maybe they think that we think that they might someday say. Exactly. Right. So let's just fucking let's get on our fucking speculation train. Here's the thing. The best part is we get to put words in their mouth right now. So like, is there any way that you could do
Starting point is 01:09:03 that for us? Look, I mean... What happened to him? I think he swallowed a robin. There's a robin nested in his beard. He's got an orderly in his mouth. It's like actually, he's got to open his mouth and the baby birds are in there and they're feeding it like mama's regurgitating for baby birds.
Starting point is 01:09:22 I think that's what happened. What we do know is it was coordinated so it takes a level of planning uh that doesn't tell you necessarily who it was but i can tell you that and you may have seen some of this this morning that organizations like the new black panthers have been calling for the assassination of police officers. And there's a video that I've wrote about in my book and I, it's online.
Starting point is 01:09:52 You can watch it called training day where they actually, that's a movie. Yeah. Denzel Washington. Hey, but the black guy's evil in it. It is true. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:10:00 Right. Yeah. Way to go. Fucking not smashing stereotypes. Pick your roles., Denzel. Pick your roles better, Denzel Washington. I blame this whole thing on Denzel Washington. What is wrong with you, Denzel Washington? We should just arrest him.
Starting point is 01:10:12 Jesus. Hashtag arrest Denzel. Do a lecture on how to do it. Hiding in concealed locations to murder police officers with AK-47s. Now, do the new Black Panthers do this in Dallas? I don't know. But I'm sure willing to speculate. I'll tell you what I'm willing to do.
Starting point is 01:10:32 Here's the thing, though. I'm willing to pin it on somebody that's like that. Pretty sure it was black militants. The thing is, I don't know exactly it's black militants, but it's probably black militants. So does that help? It might not be black militants, but they're probably black militants. So does that help? It might not be black militants, but they're probably militants who are black.
Starting point is 01:10:48 Militants. I do know they're very active in Dallas, but we'll find out eventually who did this. Actually, I'm just sending I'm going to have Adam, I just got this from you, this video, and we're going to put that on our Facebook page so people
Starting point is 01:11:03 can watch it. The other thing that I'm reading Christian, of course, I don't think I've even talked about this yet on the air, but the Soros Foundation, Open Society, we know that George Soros, the Hungarian atheist billionaire, has been funding many, most of the leftist causes in this country, including Black Lives Matter. So that's where some of this funding is likely coming from also. Funding for what? It doesn't take a lot of funding to kill police officers.
Starting point is 01:11:32 It takes very little funding. It takes about $1,000, maybe less, to kill five police officers. All I need to do is go buy a rifle, high-powered ammunition, and I could go to any parking garage and not even pay. Okay?
Starting point is 01:11:47 So that's not even going to the budget. Because you pay on your way out. Yeah, exactly. And if they roll the boomba in there, they have to pay to get in, but I don't pay to get out. It's like my own little roach motel. The problem is getting your boomba back has severe tire damage. The suckiest thing is emptying out the boomba chute because it's just full of people. It's just terrible.
Starting point is 01:12:15 No, but seriously, funding for what? I fucking calculated. First off, it doesn't take a lot of planning to kill police officers, especially during protests. There could there could have been someone who killed a lot of police officers at Chicago's fucking Taste of Chicago. Sure. You know, the B Festival that it is. Right. I fucking hate it, too. But the thing is, is like fucking, you know, I haven't been down there in five or six years, but I know fucking have some brains in your head. And now the only time I went down the last time I went down there was by mistake. I accidentally I left. I was like was like oh I should go for a walk
Starting point is 01:12:46 during lunch. I'm like why are they why is this because I don't know what happens at Grant Park. I normally don't go that far that far east. So when I walk by my work over to get to the lake if I'm going to go for a walk I'll be like oh why is this closed off and I'll think oh is it Jazz Fest? Is it Blues Fest? Is it fucking Hickory Smoke Fest or whatever the fuck
Starting point is 01:13:02 it is and I'll walk across and be like wait what's going on over here? And then you realize it's like it's like a fucking horror movie where you're like i'm in the middle of taste chicago and you're expecting to hear the psycho music you're like oh god i gotta go it's like fucking you feel like you've been you've been fucking parachuted into the middle kentucky or something but but uh but when you go look at all the people there's fucking cops on horses there's cops all over the place man if you if you had one of those buildings and there's a lot of large buildings that that you could have like a sniper rifle on top of sure you could fuck up a bunch of
Starting point is 01:13:37 people man and the bullet you wouldn't hear the shots boom boom people start falling you know what i mean like in the middle of chicago are you to hear a gunshot from a block or two away? No. You can start fucking laying people down like crazy. So the fact of the matter is this fucking doesn't take a lot of planning. All you need to know, all you need is like an app that has the local calendar on it. The amount of planning is fucking ridiculous. The local patch.
Starting point is 01:13:58 Exactly. That's it. That's all you need. They make it sound like there's this tremendous amount of organizational skills. Like the organizational skills has to be somebody who's like, I guess I got nothing else to do. That's it. Yeah. That's fucking it.
Starting point is 01:14:11 Yeah. They go to a place that's higher up than the people. And that's the whole fucking thing. They make it sound like, oh, it's like terrorist. Right. Like Megamind had to do this. They have some camp where they go and learn how to fucking make IEDs or something. It would be the shortest conversation ever if you were going to have a conversation called,
Starting point is 01:14:29 let's get a gun, find a high place, and shoot people. Yeah, I know. Because that's literally the whole conversation. Exactly. So, wow, I don't know. Maybe this is a little more heavier than we thought it was going to be, especially when maybe not as much, I guess. Now that I think about some of the bad jokes we told.
Starting point is 01:14:49 Everywhere we go is heavy. I'm just saying. There's nowhere we're going where it's light. Well, this week, this midweek show is coming out, and also for patrons this week, we released an Alex Jones show. We hope that the patrons enjoyed both of those. And we're going to be back Monday. We are also today, it's Sunday, and we're recording later on today with Wayward Atheists.
Starting point is 01:15:14 So we'll let you know when that show releases as well. But we're going to be back with another full show on Monday.
