It's not me, Duval is Florida. Okay, donkey today for Wednesday, May 6 goes to a 33-year-old Florida man named Andre Brown Jr. What does your uncle Shala always say about the great state of Florida? Say it with me.

They're craziest people in America come from the Bronx and all of Florida, and today is no exception. Now, Andre is in jail For doing something that I don't do And that's beat his kids Okay, now I was born in 1978 So weapons, beatings, that was just the way of life, okay? I'm from the era where we had to go pick a switch Off the tree.

Y'all haven't had to go pick a switch? Y'all ain't had no trees in New York. No. Dang, we have trees in New York, but we ain't picked no switch. For all of those who had to go pick a switch, you know how sadistic that was in hindsight? Okay. Go pick the weapon that is going to be used

against you. That is pure and sense. sanity. Okay. If you tell a kid to go pick a switch right now, though, he'll probably say for what, the pistol or the rifle. Okay, but I want adults to know that beating your kids is stupid. All right, doing any kind of physical harm to your child hurts you just as much, if not more than it does the kid. We all remember the saying, this will hurt me more than it hurts you. That's debatable, but it does hurt when you have to physically discipline your kids, which is why I won't do it, because you always end up feeling dumb, disciplining kids, physically

disciplining kids because they are just kids. Okay, if you physically disciplining a kid for something they did wrong, you're an idiot because the reality is, they're just kids. And kids don't know what they don't know. Okay, you ever got mad at a kid because you can't believe they did some foolishness? Well, they can't believe it either, okay?

And you say to them, what's the matter with you? The answer is nothing. They're kids. They just got here two seconds ago. They're learning as they grow just like you did. I spanked my oldest daughter one time. Okay, gave her a couple pops when she, was young because she cursed.

I felt so damn stupid afterwards. Number one, she don't even know what those words mean. Okay, number two, she probably heard us saying them. All right? So spanking her for that is dumb. She didn't know any better. And your kids don't know any better either. So give them grace.

All right. Now, that brings me back to Andre Brown Jr. Andre Brown, Jr. I can't even talk to y'all about Andre Brown Jr. Until I let you know what he's getting donkey of the day four. Let's go to CBS News, Miami for the report, please. A shocking hate crime. arrest out of Polk County. Deputies say a man targeted a five-year-old boy because he believed the

child was gay. Police say 33-year-old Andre Brown Jr. was arrested on Sunday. Officials say he allegedly beat the boy and two other children. They say the youngest suffered from serious injuries. Ron reportedly told deputies that he abused the child because of his sexual orientation, claiming he would, quote, beat the gay out of him if possible. Investigators say the attack was intentional and hate driven, elevating the charges to a life felony. What in the Lee Daniels Empire script? Andre Brown Jr. beat a five-year-old boy so bad

that he had moths and bruises covering his legs, arms, back, and stomach along with a fractured right wrist and a contusion on his forehead. Beat this five-year-old boy so bad to other children in the house, who he also had beat. They were traumatized. There was a nine-year-old in the house

who contacted her mother to report that the five-year-old was being abused. the text message that read and I quote, I'm scared. He's whooping him so hard. I'm scared. Andre Brown Jr. told deputies that he decided to whoop the little boy because the little boy was gay. He advised he would beat the gay out of him if possible, but since it wasn't possible, he would beat him more. That's an exact quote he told deputies, okay? Well, who going to beat the dumb out of Andre if possible? Okay, I know it's not possible. So maybe they should just beat Andre more. Andre Brown Jr.

Question for you. This little boy was five. Now, homosexuality is defined as romantic, emotional, or sexual attraction between members of the same sex or gender. Who was this five-year-old being romantic with that five? What could this little boy have been possibly doing that you would think he was gay? Even if the little boy had some Dixie crystals in his tank, make him do some push-ups or something. Okay? Maybe he was just five and is always around women, so he picked up their mannerisms.

And maybe just maybe you're correct. He's gay. So what? Okay, beating him will change nothing. All right, you actually admit that you know beating the gay out of him isn't possible. And since it wasn't possible, you just decided to beat him some more.

So therefore, you confess to a hate crime. Okay, you absolutely positively committed a hate crime. You simply beat all over this little boy because he was gay. That says more about you than it does this little boy, okay, because he can't help what he's born at. You, on the other hand, made a choice to be evil. Okay, you made a choice to administer harm to this little boy simply because you can.

And where was this young man's parents? Where's his daddy at that he's letting you beat all over him like this? And what do you think will happen to you in prison? Okay. There's going to be gay men in prison daring you to try to beat the gay out of them, and you're going to have to fight to keep the gay out of you. Who you give Andre Brown, Jr., the biggest he-ho? I don't know what's wrong people, man.

Yeah, that's crazy. I really don't. I was looking at this story earlier about how a bunch of religious leaders claimed they were called to secret meetings to prepare for UFO disclosure. It's time. It's time.

Because I feel like we're just all a bunch of defective humans and it's about time for us to be recalled. That's all. We're just a bunch of defective product in this universe. What should be recalled? Not all of us. Not all of us Yeah
