glenn beck
So, Elijah, first of all, I saw you on with Steven Crowder yesterday on the Blaze, and again, terrifying for me, at least, watching you.
I wish you would come home.
Can you tell me the names of the reporters that are with you, not just with the Blaze?
Who's with you every night?
elijah schaffer
Yeah, okay, so I would like to say this too.
These are the people who are with America, considering the fact that in these event, Twitter likes to curate this event as breaking news, but the people they referenced and the articles they used happen to be the people who were not actually on the ground.
It's a disinformation campaign.
But the people who are there, I always say this, even if you don't like their commentary, video evidence does not lie.
And we have amazing journalists.
There is George Ventura from the Daily Caller doing great work.
There's also Shelby Talcott and Richie McGinnis.
They're all from Daily Caller, and there's a couple more.
There's Kalen Dalmeida.
He is from Scriber News, their independent think tank and news source.
And then we also have, on top of that, Julio Rosas from Town Hall, and then Drew from his Independent, from the Lives Matter show.
And there's this group of people not directly connected, just eager to show America what is actually happening because I think America is desperate to know and they deserve and have the right to know what's going on there.
glenn beck
All right.
Elijah, I don't know if I can get my hands on eight.
I think I counted eight.
But I am going to send up bulletproof vests for you and all of these reporters.
I don't care if they work for the Blaze or not.
You guys need vests.
So I'm going to see if I can raid even my family's vests and get them up to you right away.
And I please wear them.
Please wear them.
Will you?
elijah schaffer
Yeah, I absolutely will.
I think like probably the person who's sitting there listening to this, you think, why would I need to wear a bulletproof vest on the public streets in the neighborhoods of the United States of America?
Because I know, we all know, America is a great place, but it's got its wild, it's got its wild characteristics.
And there are certain areas and certain jobs that maybe would require them.
But using a camera and just filming what are constitutional rights, should that put you in the path of bullets?
glenn beck
Tell America what you think though.
Tell America what you witnessed last night.
What happened last night?
elijah schaffer
Okay.
I need to give a precursor, which is something that at least we do at Blaze, but they don't do everywhere else.
And just let you know that all this is alleged, that people are innocent until proven guilty.
And so all of these details should be scrutinized, and we're still putting some of the story together, and we don't know everything.
But I will tell you this, that I was following some black block, what appeared to be Antifa-inspired individuals, as well as Black Lives Matter rioters.
This is during a state of emergency violating a curfew and in an unlawful and illegal assembly declared by the sheriffs and local law enforcement.
We were pushed back outside of the uptown Kenosha, Wisconsin area.
Now.
glenn beck
You were pushed back by who?
elijah schaffer
We are pushed back by the law enforcement who the mayor was given emergency powers to handle and to disperse rioters.
Now, Washington Post, I will say, called the victims in this shooting protesters, and I'll tell you why they're wrong.
This group I was following was armed with metal banks, with hammers, and in some cases, bricks, or in finding large stones.
We came upon a car lot, sort of like a car shop, and immediately, like any peaceful protester would do, fighting for equality and against police brutality, they decided to completely destroy every single vehicle that they could lay their eyes on.
And not just through minor, you know, kicks and bumps.
I mean, throwing boulders through the front window till glass shattered, one by one, taking hammers and knocking out windows and lights, and even to the point, brand new-looking Infiniti SUV, something that a family probably used, somebody loves.
You know, cars are a part of our lives, lighting it on, lighting it on fire.
I mean, just straight up being arsons.
They were taking apart every car piece by piece.
And the worst part is, is, according to one of the rioters who was with the group, he's going, that's my lot.
That's my place.
So the tables have turned.
The rioters can't even tell who's their own, destroying their own city right before this happened.
This was chaos.
This was anarchy.
This wasn't just rioting.
This was felony, criminal targeting of private property.
glenn beck
Okay, so then you do an interview with somebody and they're being labeled today as white supremacists.
elijah schaffer
Yeah, you know, unfortunately for us that seek the truth, everybody who does something that is advantageous to the radical and far-left agenda will be labeled a white supremacist.
Even if you're black, you'll be labeled that.
If you're a Jew, you'll be labeled that, even if it doesn't make sense.
But these groups of individuals, I did something that's lost, and you know this.
We actually interviewed people instead of speculating to find out who they were and what they're there for.
There were a couple groups, and I don't know if they're connected.
There were people wearing Hawaiian shirts, maybe inspired by certain movements, like Google movements.
I don't know if they're directly affiliated.
I don't think they were.
There were also libertarian militia style, multi-ethnic, by the way, multi-racial.
And then there were some other individuals in similar fatigues that were defending businesses using CS gas.
And I asked them, you know, what are you doing?
And this is what I want to point out.
I don't know if all the groups were connected organizationally, but everybody I talked to who clearly was in military fatigues of some sort had two common factors.
Number one, they said that they supported the riots, I mean, and the protests.
In fact, they believed the insurrection against the government in some ways as part of the protected right of the people.
But they also, number two, continually said that they didn't believe that we had the right to attack each other's private property.
And I watched as this man who we're going to find out is the alleged shooter, innocent until proven guilty.
And we don't even know if he's in the wrong once investigations happen.
We're not sure yet what the full situation is.
He is an EMT, from his own words, and he was offering medical help to injured Black Lives Matter protesters.
So I don't know about you, but that's a pretty bad white supremacist.
Not only he verbally supports the Black Lives Matter movement, but also offers medical help for people who are hurt.
glenn beck
Okay, so but he was carrying a long rifle, was he not?
elijah schaffer
Yeah, and he told me that he was he himself was only carrying lethal rounds, so that is confirmed.
And he was capable and willing to use lethal force if he had to to defend the property of his city.
glenn beck
Can you set up this interview quickly for me?
elijah schaffer
Yeah, so there is a pretty interesting, interesting moment here.
And are you referring by interview to just what actually happened or what?
glenn beck
No, the interview.
The interview with the alleged shooter.
elijah schaffer
Okay, perfect.
unidentified
Yeah.
elijah schaffer
So approximately an hour before the shooting, there was a business that was previously targeted by rioters in the first two nights that was completely boarded up, that was surrounded by what appeared to be militia-like, or nothing criminal.
There's nothing wrong with Americans holding guns.
glenn beck
No, especially if you don't think the police are coming.
But you're protecting property.
God bless you.
elijah schaffer
Yeah, and if you want to defund the police, well, someone's going to have to step in and to protect their own property.
So, you know, I approached them because something in me actually enjoys seeing people step up to have pride in what they own.
And so I asked these people protecting this place, you know, do you guys own this property?
And the individuals told me, you know, this belonged to a friend.
I can't confirm that, but they said that.
And so then I noticed that they had used tear gas or CS gas on the rioters who were approaching and successfully got them away from the building.
And so I thought that was very interesting thing.
I was like, wow, they actually properly defended a piece of private property without using lethal force, but also successfully were able to do in what appeared to be a better job than local law enforcement, who seemed to have their hands tied protecting the government property.
So I asked this young man, you know, who was down there, just do you, do you, are these guns basically loaded or do you have lethal rounds?
And are you prepared to use lethal force to protect property?
glenn beck
Okay, let me play this.
Let me play the interview.
Here it is.
unidentified
We're protecting from the citizens, and I just got pepper sprayed by a person in the crowd.
So you had non-lethals, but you didn't respond.
We don't have non-lethal.
elijah schaffer
So you guys are full on ready to defend the property.
unidentified
Yes, we are.
Now, if I can ask, can you guys step back?
elijah schaffer
Medical, EMF right here.
unidentified
I'm an EMP.
glenn beck
So it shows that they were there to protect that particular building, but also it shows that they were providing medical, and it didn't matter who was hurt.
Then about an hour later, I'm going to play the video and describe the scene, what's happening here.
This is a guy laying down in the street.
I think that's the guy you interviewed, and he had a long rifle, and he was shooting at people.
Tell me what happened.
elijah schaffer
Right.
So while we were at the car lot, I do not know what started the initial altercation, and the reports are still not clear.
And it's okay as a reporter to just say, we need more video evidence.
But at a certain point, there was an altercation between this man and another man at the car lot.
He did open fire, multiple shots, several.
So at least more than three or four in a very quick burst, which sent a lot of us running because they, you know, appeared to go through the car.
I was standing right there.
And when you see someone raise their rifle and start shooting, usually that's a good time to not be there anymore.
But the moment within seconds, somebody screamed, you know, I shot someone.
Oh, my gosh.
And people were going, it was just chaos for a second.
I'm going, oh, man, someone got shot.
And I went ahead and ran over as fast as possible right back to the situation.
And a man had been what appeared to have been shot in the head.
I'm not going to get into everything else, but I know that the guy who allegedly shot him did take off running.
And good for him, because I'm pretty sure they probably would have tried to kill him.
I've seen this happen before, like in Dallas.
Whether it was justified or not, I can't speculate.
However, when he was running, there was an altercation to try to disarm him, it appears.
And there was a disagreement over the rifle.
And as the guy who jumped on him to try to disarm him, got his arm badly, badly shot.
glenn beck
Okay.
Elijah Schaefer, please tell all of the reporters with you, please, please listen to promptings and do everything you can to stay safe.
