Listen to If You knew better with Amber Grimes. on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I just wanted to know how you came up with the donkey of a day. Because you're mean.

I am not. What did I do? I made donkey a day. There's a bunch of donkeys out in the streets. If we live a life where we bite our tongue based off who we may offend, we never would say anything. We don't give a damn.

Hey, give it to him. Give it to him. On the breakfast club. In the words of Charlemagne, the guy, he's a donkey. He's a fucking all. A man, Charlemaine, you giving Donkier the day to who now?

Well, Buster Rhyams, donkey at a day for Tuesday, March 10th goes to Charles Montgomery Allen. He's 40 years old, and he's from my beautiful home state of South Carolina. But he is not a beautiful person, okay? In fact, he represents the worst of us because I have no idea what the hell is wrong with humans anymore. Every day I wake up and I read a story that reminds me of why Jesus is not coming back. Okay, he's not. I wouldn't.

Okay, all y'all going to do is make ridiculous memes about him anyway. Can you imagine to think pieces? with no thought about Jesus if he came back. It would be so many ridiculous YouTube videos calling Jesus a fraud. Okay, Jesus, don't even waste your time, OG. Just keep watching over us from afar. Okay, I have read all the stories about U.S. service members who were told the war with Iran is meant to cause Armageddon

or the end of biblical times. That right there is yet another reason Jesus is not coming back. Okay, y'all always attaching his name to foolishness. But I'm saying all of this because my grandmother used to always say, Lord, I ain't never. seen a time like this and this was the 80s and 90s here we are in 2026 here I am in 2006 at the big old age of 47 saying Lord I ain't never seen a time like this okay there's so much evil in the world but there's also so much untreated mental illness in the world

and untreated mental illness mental health disorders can absolutely drive criminal behavior and in the case of Charles Allen I don't know if he had any mental health issues maybe I'm just hoping he did because it would help me understand why he committed such a heinous act of violence. Would you like to know what Charles Allen Montgomery did? Well, let's go to 9 ABC for the report, please. A man in South Carolina will spend the rest of his life in prison after he admitted to shooting and killing an eight-year-old from Portsmouth. Quarius Dunham was just vacationing with his family and floor in South Carolina back in

22 when he was hit in the neck by a bullet. Dunham's father was also shot but survived. say Charles Montgomery Allen was randomly firing a gun at passing vehicles when it hit the Dunham's and some other people. Yesterday, he pleaded guilty to one count of murder and five counts of attempted murder. First thing first, rest in peace, the eight-year-old query is Dunham. As you just heard, vacationing with his family in Florence, South Carolina and was shot and killed by Charles Montgomery Allen because Charles was randomly, randomly firing a gun at passing vehicles. Why? Why?

Why? Why? Charles, if you wanted to be a first-person shooter, there's so many video games for that. Call of Duty isn't enough. Battlefield 6, Dead Space. You couldn't go to the gun range. You couldn't wait until it was deer hunting season. Like, there's so many different ways you could choose to bust your gun.

There's so many different ways you could exercise your Second Amendment rights, but you decided to randomly shoot at passing vehicles? I really wish people like this would turn the gun on themselves first before they decided to shoot at random people. I would much rather you take yourself out than be shooting at random passing vehicles and end up doing what you did, which was killed an 8-year-old boy for no reason. As you heard in the news report, the young man's father was also shot, but he survived. And I am sending that brother healing energy because some things are just out of the realm of my understanding. And I couldn't possibly understand what that father has been going through the past few years. And I pray to God that I never have to feel anything remotely to what he's felt.

Okay. Now, the Justice Department got it right. It's great that this man got sinister forever in prison, but that's not bringing Quarius back. And it still doesn't make us understand why Charles did this in the first place. I'm from South Carolina born and raised. There's a lot of things I grew up loving to do. Okay, shooting that random cause was never one of them, okay?

All right? The fact that we are forced to have to deal with each other's crazy on a regular. The problem is back in the day, we were all segregated, okay? Kids like Charles ate lunch before everyone else. They was in those trailers in the back. They rode the bus that was shaped like Drusky. Now we all in the real world together. And nobody knows who's who.

And some of those people have grown up and those untreated mental health disorders are driving criminal behavior. I have nothing else to offer, okay, this conversation because this defies human logic. And it's times like this that I just have to remember, Proverbs 3, 5. lean not on your own understanding okay I have to trust in God's wisdom rather than relying on my human logic because my human logic can't even understand can't even comprehend why the hell Charles was just shooting at random passing vehicles okay this is a time that calls for full surrender because nothing about this situation makes sense to me all right please give Charles Montgomery Allen the biggest he-ho health disorder. You got to tell me that there was cocaine involved. You got to tell me that there was some alcohol

something. Still don't matter. Like, what caused him to just want to randomly shoot that passing vehicle? It's still a man. I don't get it, man. Rest and peace, the Quarry has done. Sending healing energy to his family. Eight years old, man.

Horrible. All right. Well, thank you for that donkey of the day. Yes, indeed. Now, when we come back, Nicole Curtis just joined us. You know, she's the young lady from HGTV. She has a show. She'll had a show. called Rehab Attic, and she was the one that said fart and word. That's right. I know it's not like envy having a stroke every time he said that,

but he's saying fart and word. Right. Yes, she was a white woman who said fart and words. So we just talked to her last hour. And we want to hear your thoughts. The phone line's already lit up. It's kind of crazy. She reached out to Lauren LaRosa after I gave her donkey of the day.

And for whatever reason, she decided she wanted to come on Breakfast Club to explain herself. She says she wanted to clear it up and... I don't know what she expected. I mean, well, we'll take your calls when. come back. It's the breakfast club. Good morning. Donkey today is sponsored by renowned personal injury attorney Michael the Bull Lamensoff.
