♪♪ you.
Hey.
There it is.
Got a good slurp of that.
And I do it because it's a palate cleanser for the coffee.
I like coffee.
It's also delicious.
Not a big fan of the coffee breath.
I had a bad morning this morning because I mistimed the shower.
You ever do that where you're sweating, you're either working out, or you're in a hot car, or you leave your dog in a hot car, and then you get into the shower, but you get out of the shower.
I don't have dog mode.
I don't own a Tesla.
What am I going to do?
Take him into Tom Thumb?
You can stand the heat.
And so then I got out and I was still sweaty and so now my hair looks like Willard.
We have Anne Dorn on the show today.
Mrs. Officer David Dorn.
We're going to be talking about Kamala Harris.
We're going to be talking about A whole lot of things, folks.
My half-Asian lawyer, Bill Richman, is here.
How are you?
Reg the Bandit, our wonderful researcher here.
He scares me.
Good to be here.
How are you, sir?
And Audio Wade is there, and Token Alan, but he's not talking to us.
So please do subscribe on The Crowder Bits on YouTube.
Hit the notification bell.
And Apple Podcasts, Android, we're available wherever you want to listen on audio.
Of course, we go to WebExtended for those who are members of Mug Club after we tell YouTube to piss off.
Then you get more content, and that'll be with Mrs. David Dorn.
Something else, too.
Next week, we'll be livestreaming Wednesday and Thursday night, the DNC there.
We were going to do it every night of the week, but that would be three or four hours.
And you would just see an actual news, not like a fake NASCAR news.
Not a garage pull like a regular one.
You'd just see my legs hanging and also gasoline dripping with a lit match for safety because it wouldn't be one of those cries for help.
It would be, end me.
Nobody wants that.
I could.
Question, let me ask you.
This is obviously what everyone is talking about.
Kamala Harris, Joe Biden's VP choice.
Do you think it helps or hurts Joe Biden's chances?
And then as far as it relates to Kamala Harris, of all of her sins, what do you think is the most egregious?
Let us know.
I want to know your opinions.
And you know what?
The comment section has become pretty good after the change of mind.
Yeah.
A lot of discussion there.
What did you say?
You had a bad morning.
I had a bad morning.
Yeah.
What happened?
Well, my mom saw the news about Kamala.
Oh, really?
And she was like, not a doctor, went to a public school, and you weren't even the first half-Asian to make it onto a national presidency or vice president.
I mean, hey, you know what?
She's South Asian, she is half-Asian.
I'd say giving a bad name to half-Asians, but we'll see how it bears out.
You know, it's funny, but when you think Harris, you don't think half-Asian.
Yeah, that's true.
But neither do I with Richmond.
Yeah, I was gonna say, you know, Richmond.
Is that just bringing noodles and lo mein to mind?
I had no idea you were half-Asian until I first met you.
Oh!
And I know, looking back, I know that he knew what was going on.
He's like, what's that?
And I'm like, I don't know!
Bill?
William Richney?
All the time.
All the time.
Okay, well first we actually have to, we have a lot of sponsors.
We have to go to our sponsor before we talk about Kamala Harris, I believe today.
We have a special sponsor.
Thank you very much to Toast.
Tired of spreading butter on a regular piece of normal colored bread?
Sick of sopping up your plate of eggs with a second plate of eggs?
Well, now you don't have to.
With toast!
Toast is similar to bread, but worlds apart.
Because toast is the result of your bread being heated in a device.
After which, it emerges slightly darker.
You can then use the toast as a side, accompaniment, or a meal all its own, enjoying its subtle, but noticeably crunchier flavor that satisfies even Plain Bread's greatest critics.
Go to toast.toast and enter promo code toast for 7% off your first order.
That's toast.toast, promo code toast.
If you order in the next 10 minutes, we'll include a discount on the Ladder with Crowder proprietary browning bread box to help make your own toast at home.
That's toast.toast, promo code toast, to try it for yourself today.
I don't want that sponsor anymore.
I'm glad to have him on.
What I particularly don't like is the hipster with his ID card.
You know what's always bothered me about toast?
What?
If you leave toast out, it turns back into squishy bread.
It does, but if you're your squishy bread.
But if you leave bread out, it turns into toast.
It gets hard.
Yeah.
But that's for the birds, ladies and gentlemen.
You just let it stale.
Apparently, birds like stale bread.
Do you think birds all this time have been preferring moist bread?
And they get stale bread?
And every time they show up, they're like, what the hell?
We should have a bird on to talk about that.
You leave your dog in the car, you give me this stale bread.
We don't have the digestive tract for biscotti.
But first, before we talk about Kamala Harris, of course the man who picked Kamala Harris, former vice president, that's a scary phrase, Joseph Biden, this weekend Biden.
You know the thing.
Poor kids are just as bright and just as talented as white kids.
If you have a problem, figure it out whether you're for me or Trump, and you ain't black.
So this is the guy who picked the half-Asian lady as his vice presidential candidate.
And I don't know if you noticed this, but when I tune in, the half-Asian bill looks very cross.
Let's give him a chance to reset his mood.
Let's see what's going on on CNN.
Look at Sanjay.
Is that Sanjay Gupta?
Look at him.
He has the early 90s hockey cut.
I was going to say he is hockey kid.
He has the Marty McSorley.
He has the enforcer for Los Angeles Kings Wayne Gretzky haircut.
You know that's a virtue signaling haircut because he won't go get his hair cut.
Social distancing.
Like, come on.
He could get his dame to grab a pair of clippers, and I recommend you do, Gupta.
But instead, he said, you know what, I'm going to let everyone, the whole world will see my neck hair mullet.
And it's not even a good mullet.
It's just a lazy mullet.
And you're a doctor?
You're a doctor, Sanjay Gupta?
It's probably unhygienic.
It is unhygienic.
Do you have any idea what's growing in that thing?
I don't know if he's... I assume he's not actually practicing as most of these doctors on CNN, so he's probably avoided most of the microbes.
But a doctor should have his hair.
Sure, and if they have to do it at Shake Shack, they have to wear a hairnet.
I'm not having that guy perform an operation on me.
I wouldn't trust him.
Alright, let's see what they're talking about.
Hand hygiene stations, trying to create the physical distancing as much as possible, which is probably the biggest challenge.
They've even gone through the process of getting kids and faculty tested.
The real problem is where we live at this point.
We live in an area where there is considerable viral spread.
As I've looked at the data from around the world in terms of how kids transmit the virus, I've become increasingly convinced that kids really of any age can spread this virus.
Okay, alright, that's enough.
This is the problem that they're talking about.
Notice they focus now on kids can spread the virus.
Well, yeah.
Initially, they talked about a crazy death rate.
And we said, well, actually, it's probably a lot lower because a lot of people are asymptomatic.
More people have the virus than we realize.
And now they're going, oh my god, more people!
More people have the virus than we realize!
But if kid A spreads it to kid B and neither one of them have any symptoms or a problem, and in the state I believe, was it in New York, Donald Trump spoke about this, only one person under the age of 18 died and they had diabetes, if none of them or very few of them have ill effects, that is something that you take into consideration when shutting down the economy for their entire generation to come.
No one's saying that kids can't get it.
We're saying that kids, by and large, and I know this could be removed from Facebook and Twitter like the present, most of the time, virtually almost all, are asymptomatic and they're fine.
Now, if you want to say that those kids shouldn't come home because they might give Mr. Mullet, Doctor, the virus himself, and it could, then fine, fine, just say it's about you.
It's not about the kids, it's about you.
This is about you.
You don't want to send your kids to school because you don't want the stiffles.
Dr. Sanjay Gupta, you want to continue on down the mullet trail so you can show everyone how good of a non-practicing doctor you are looking at the data.
By the way, was this the same guy who looked at the data from the Imperial College of London?
I think he vetted it and then brought it onto the show and he told Poppy and all his friends about it.
I mean, hey Poppy, here's the problem.
Ask the question.
You go from the next part, right?
Okay, kids are gonna get it.
Okay, so if kids can spread it, ooh, well first of all, you're five months behind on understanding that people can spread the disease.
Alright, fine.
Okay, so then what?
Is that the end of the clue?
Okay, kids can spread it, so we should never go back to school.
Right.
Because kids can spread, oh wow, there's also this new thing, it's called the flu.
And kids can also spread it.
I don't know if you've heard of it.
And kids can die from that.
Right.
And so that's where you get through the arguments, you just get to a certain point and then they're like, And if you say anything bad, you're a terrible person, you want to kill grandma.
No, what is the actual reality?
Okay, if you are living at home with your grandparents, maybe you need to figure out a way to isolate.
Unless your grandma's a bitch.
Well then, maybe that's a different consideration.
Ah, grandma, look at this!
Wet socks!
Oh, smell them!
Get a good inhale.
Sweat socks?
I think that's probably the most- I'm not a doctor, I would imagine it would be an effective spread of bacteria.
That's true, Dr. Mullet.
I'm going back to the after the shower.
My socks were sweating.
It's a traumatic experience.
No, this is true.
There really are only two options at this point, okay?
And this is based on the data, and this is based on the opinions of everyone at CNN and everyone on the left, including Dr. Fauci.
The only point of view that you can have is this is a virus right now, disease that will be among us and we have to learn how to deal with it and move forward or shut everything down forever.
Because a temporary shutdown isn't going to stop once you open back up.
It's still there.
It's not entirely gone.
You look at Sweden, they're mostly passed at this point.
Who knows, they could have another blip.
Seems that they may have reached some kind of immunity.
We don't know.
We thought herd immunity would be 70%.
Seems it may be lower for this virus right now.
It's a novel virus.
We don't know a whole lot about it, but we do know the irreparable damage that we've done to the economy.
So why are we not talking about this a bunch?
Because what is there left to say?
Okay, open up and let people live their lives, let people make a living, or shut down forever.
I don't think you're a Nazi if you believe either.
I just think that you're misinformed on the data, and you should probably shave your neck hairs!
Yeah, and there is no standard.
Yeah, so it's like, if the standard is nobody else is getting it, there are zero cases, there are zero deaths, is that when school can start back up, when life can start back up?
Yeah, they don't have a standard.
Or when public school teachers stop being lazy pricks while claiming to be heroes.
I'm sorry, I'm so tired of this.
The New York teachers unions, they're dragging out caskets.
You're killing us!
They're dragging out caskets like they're the Undertaker in a coffin match in the mid-1990s with Jean-Pierre Lafitte.
This is ridiculous.
They're going out there saying, we don't want to go back in unsafe conditions and die.
Three months off isn't enough yet?
Listen, okay, how about this?
We're all in this together?
Are you guys taking a pay cut?
Are teachers going to not be paid?
Because this is something, if we're going to play identity politics, we're going to separate everyone by race, gender, okay, well, gender, sex, I have to separate the two now even though apparently it means the same thing on a government ID.
They screwed that one up.
But if we're going to separate everyone that way, there is a group of people here who are more harmed.
than other groups and that is business owners. That is people who don't receive a paycheck as
an employee, that is independent contractors. Teachers aren't affected by that, most union
members aren't affected by that, most employees aren't affected by that. So if we're all in this
together and we see all of these signs, well, no. Does it affect everybody equally just like
the virus itself? Does it affect children the same way it affects grandma? No, that's statistically,
verifiably false. Does this pandemic, shutting down of businesses affect everyone equally?
What are you giving up, public school teachers? My sanity because my students are my life.
Well then go back to them!
No, Nazi!
Nazi!
I'm confused.
Peanuts!
Most of the time, if people are losing their jobs, they're also losing their health plans.
They're losing their only means of actually paying for any kind of treatment.
So people are worse off with no jobs and the coronavirus.
I can hear leftists right now going, see, you just made an argument for socialized health care.
No, you dick!
We're talking about people being allowed to live their lives and be autonomous at this point.
So the solution, right?
If it's a total shutdown, people lost their health care plan.
Let's give people more health care plans.
Let's give them universal basic income.
Teachers don't want to go back?
Let's give them an extra stipend because three months off isn't enough with an average salary of 70-something thousand dollars a year plus bennies.
It's just more money, more money, more money, more money.
We've spent trillions of dollars.
We don't have the money, and we're going to have less money because people aren't going to be able to pay taxes!
So that's why we don't talk about it anymore.
And you know what you never hear about are the number of teachers.
You have to really dig, or you have to go actually talk to individuals, which is hard right now under the restrictions.
When you talk to teachers who go, look, I've always known, everyone knows that it's a Petri dish.
Certainly, there's more of a risk, and certain teachers may have a particular problem if they live with someone or if they themselves are particularly susceptible because they have a pre-existing condition.
Those are case-by-case basis, and these teachers are going, yeah, I absolutely want to go back to work.
And you know what a lot of them say?
The reason why they want to do it, these teachers who are not getting a voice right now, is because they want their students to learn.
Because they know that the socialization, They know that the in-person teaching is what's needed, and they know that how are mom and dad going to go back to work?
Listen, if it's about the children, if it's about the children, if it really is, and I'm not saying that no teachers, of course, go in because they want to serve children.
Of course, plenty of them do, but not everyone.
And I would be willing to bet not the teachers who are out there dragging coffins down Fifth Avenue and aren't supporting a robust homeschooling system.
If it's about the children, say, okay, shut down and let's help support parents so that they can homeschool their children.
And then let's find out what, no, instead of just going, I don't want to go back!
I don't want to work any sooner than I play all day.
I don't give a shit, OK?
This is your job.
You have to go back to your job.
And if you're doing it for the children, then right now, do it for the children.
If not, don't consider yourself a frontline hero.
We had people getting into the trenches in D-Day, and you won't go back to teach children right now at a point where, again, we're talking about a 0.3% death rate.
Which, if I said this only a few months ago, banned.
I understand because we're hearing a death rate that is now accurate, but Dr. Sanjay
Gupta was citing the Imperial College study, which he's a doctor.
This is the thing.
Trust the experts.
All right.
Well, I don't know.
Who's an expert?
Dr. Mullet.
He seems like an expert.
Oh, he's citing that study.
Two million people dead.
Seems to check out.
I understand that there are people who are more knowledgeable, and you need to trust
experts, but at what point do you say, okay, all of the experts who we trusted got these
predictions verifiably wrong, and the crazy militiamen hooligans who said it would be
more comparable to the flu than the 4, 3 to 7% death rate, they were right.
So at a certain point when experts cease to give expert advice, they cease to be valuable.
Dr. Fauci, AIDS.
When you look back at that and how many people were going to get that in that pandemic.
I'm not saying AIDS didn't exist.
Just like I'm not saying the coronavirus doesn't exist.
The AIDS epidemic as it would affect all demographics was absolutely a hoax.
Was it Oprah Winfrey said one in three heterosexual couples?
One in five?
Let's say one in ten.
Let's say more than zero percent would have been an exaggeration, Winfrey.
And I use Winfrey because I'm not going to use your first name because you put that stupid little O in all your magazines.
And guess who's going to be on the cover this month?
Who, who, who?
It's going to be Oprah.
That's exciting.
I've got to get that.
But what pose, though?
Got to find her pics.
What is the pose?
If only I could understand her plight.
Okay.
Speaking of plight, let's go to the Biracial.
I always have to check my notes.
Just like Joe Biden had to check his notes, you found this when he was announcing—I think we have an overlay—announced Senator Kamala Harris for vice president.
He had to have a script and a giant picture of her face.
Can you see that?
The only thing missing is a giant yellow—bring that back up—is a giant yellow arrow that says, Don't Say Tulsi.
There's so much going on in that picture, you know.
I can't quite make out.
He's holding the phone upside down.
He's talking to her on the phone.
Is he talking to her on the phone and Zoom?
I'm not exactly sure.
He has a transcript.
Even if you look at the little comic he has on his desk.
I don't know if we have this.
I think I sent it earlier.
A zoomed in example of it.
But whether or not you can see it, it's a Hagar the Horrible.
Okay.
And it's him saying, yelling at the heavens, why me?
And then this voice comes back and says, why not you?
Right.
And so I really feel like that's a cry for help.
Like, why me?
Please not.
It's subtle.
He's like, I don't know what to do.
I can't really say that I have a problem because I can't speak right.
Right.
I'll just let Hagar the Horrible say it.
Because of all the facelifts, he can't blink more.
So he's just like.
I can't do it.
Ah, poor guy.
It's unfortunate.
It's kind of like the plot of Memento at this point, almost, you know?
He's just trying to escape.
Which, by the way, there's a special feature on that DVD of Memento where you can watch it backwards.
It plays incredibly well.
Nolan, you minx.
Alright, so let's get some facts as to why Kamala Harris is just the worst vice presidential candidate.
No, Stephen.
We're not going to talk about the facts because all that matters is that she is a POC.
That's right.
That's all we're hearing!
That is a fact.
Literally.
Identity, identity, identity.
Merits.
Yes.
No, absolutely.
Let's go through the merits, because here's the thing.
When we talk about common ground, and I don't believe that you need to find common ground on a lie, I think that there's right and there's wrong, and very often it's found maybe somewhere in the middle, but sometimes it's not found in the middle at all.
However, today we can find common ground, to use my half-Asian letters terms, on this POS Kamala Harris, because Everyone should unilaterally dislike her.
I will give you reason as to why the left will despise her, or at least they should if they're being consistent right now with these riots slash peaceful protests.
And of course the right should not be happy, or I don't think will be very happy.
So the New York Times wrote that she was a pragmatic moderate.
So that would seem like, oh, okay.
Oh, all right.
Kamala Harris, she's a pragmatic moderate, and we'll get to her criminal justice history, which is really to the right of Rudy Giuliani, and maybe that's what they were doing to tip the scales, but on everything else, what do we have here?
Obviously universal health care.
She supported after-birth abortion.
I know you might think, well, that's actually some... we're exaggerating.
No, no, no.
It's not just Northam and Blackface.
It, too, is Kamala Harris.
Sports after birth abortion.
The Green New Deal she supported.
Keep in mind that was a five page bill with sweeping legislation and also the justice for all people.
Against fracking, of course.
And she co-sponsored a bill to force schools to let transgender athletes compete in women's sports.
She was actually ranked from GovTrack the furthest left Democrat candidate that there is.
So that's one thing.
They're going to try and say that she's moderate, which, well, this is the beauty of the left today.
They are stuck between a rock and a hard place, right?
If someone says, well, actually, she's pretty moderate, they go, we don't want it!
So they were saying yesterday, right before Joe Biden announced it, they said, if you do not bring in a POS candidate, then you are going to lose the POS.
For a second I thought I wasn't sure what I said, but I think what you were getting to is what I meant to say.
What you did say.
We can rewind the tape.
They said that he would lose the ethnic vote, the minority vote.
They didn't just say black vote.
They said he would lose the person of color vote.
Keep in mind, that's what they were saying about Joe Biden.
So if he picked a woman, it wouldn't be enough.
Then he picked Kamala Harris.
And then when you see the media going, actually she's a pragmatic moderate, the left goes, we don't want moderate!
We want radical change!
For reference, tune into the Young Turks at any single point in their channel or John Oliver.
And then the problem is now when we understand what she's actually about, Uh, everyone else in the country is going to say, we don't, we don't want it.
So there's no winning right now at this point.
I'm just wondering if Joe Biden will even make it to November.
Speaking of whom, let's actually kind of the only highlights people forget this during the debates.
Kamala Harris, when we watched those debates, I said, oh, she drank her milk tonight.
She came in ready to fight.
She only really went after Tulsi Gabbard a little bit, but it didn't work.
But one night she came out and went after Joe Biden hard.
So, the vice presidential candidate, let's see her thoughts on the guy at the top of the ticket.
But I also believe, and it's personal, and it was actually very, it was hurtful.
To hear you talk about the reputations of two United States Senators who built their reputations and career on the segregation of race in this country.
He's like, how sad should I look?
You also worked with them to oppose busing.
And, you know, there was a little girl in California who was part of the second class to integrate her public schools, and she was bused to school every day.
And that little girl was me.
It was me!
I believe them, and I respect them being able to tell their story and having the courage to do it.
Do you believe that the vice president should enter this race?
Oh, he's going to have to make that decision for himself.
I wouldn't tell him what to do.
Well, you might want to think about trying.
At this point, you might want to stick your oar in there, sweetheart.
Just pull one from the Jamaican plantation where your ancestors owned slaves.
We'll get to that in a second.
They tried to robo it.
Oh, son of a bitch!
It's the Harris's!
Go!
Go!
Jump in the sled!
So basically, there's a difference between just saying, I don't agree with this person's policies, and now running on the ticket with someone who you've basically said, I believe the women who've accused him of sexual assault, and he's supported segregation.
This is my guy.
Yeah.
It's like, you know what?
I'm going to bid the ticket with a rapist Jim Crow.
That's my guy.
By her own words.
How does she do this?
At least Donald Trump had the foresight at this point, even though he needed to kind of unify the party.
It was just him and Ted Cruz left.
You know that was an option for Vice President, right?
You thought about it?
You know, I think it might be a sore spot that I said his dad killed JFK and called his wife a pig.
Let's put him in a cabinet position and I'll pick someone else.
I don't want the friction.
What you say?
His dad killed JFK.
I didn't say this when people told me.
There's no coming back from that.
So now we have Kamala Harris and Joe Biden.
What is that room going to be like?
I don't think it's a problem.
You really don't?
No, I really don't because Biden doesn't remember any of it.
They literally were like, no, no, no, no, no, no.
That was it.
That was Kenny Harris.
Well, good enough for me.
Yeah, he probably didn't even say that.
He just went back to playing Angry Birds.
Listen, we don't have time for this because we gotta make sure that we win the caucus in Iowa.
Oh.
I I think he's that far off.
That's the thing.
You go back to Dan Quayle and George W. Bush.
He choked on a pretzel which was hilarious.
That can happen to the best of us.
Not forgetting where you are and naming trips that you made with people you never met in places that don't even exist.
It really is a different level.
He's a creative guy.
Good stories, though.
And I have a theory on that.
Yeah, he tells his tall tales.
I have a conspiracy that I'm going to get to in a second.
I want to see if anyone else here agrees.
But first, do hit the notification bell if you're on YouTube, because the subscriptions don't mean a whole lot anymore, and you find out exactly when the stream is, which is, of course, Monday through Thursday, every morning.
And we'll be doing the live streams as we have Democratic Convention town halls, not debate.
So it'll likely be Anderson Cooper talking with a bunch of people who grew up from a school shooting from six years ago, and they'll just somehow tie that into the presidency.
We'll be here to stream it anyway, down with the NRA!
That's the quality of programming you can expect here.
Here's another fast fact.
Well, it's not really a fast fact.
It's just a fact.
She is the descendant of slave owners, Kamala Harris.
Now, here's the thing.
That's awkward.
It is awkward.
Now, I remember asking Reg this morning, I said, can we verify this?
And I went to Snopes, and Snopes, you know they really want to say false, though.
And they said unverified.
Well, do you think they would apply that same standard to someone else if it was, let's say, Donald Trump's father wrote In 2018, an op-ed bragging that he was a slave owner.
I have a quote right here.
here. My roots go back within my lifetime to my paternal grandmother Miss Chrissy,
Christina Brown, descendant of Hamilton Brown, who is on record as plantation and
slave owner and founder of Brownstown. That's almost as bad as White Settlement,
which is an actual city.
He was out there bragging about it, the dad about slavery.
So can we verify it?
Not exactly, but we know that Kamala Harris hasn't denied it.
And even Snopes is like, your guess is as good as mine?
Well, I don't know.
Is your guess as good as her dad's?
I'm willing to bet he did a 23 in me.
Ancestry.com?
He's proud of that.
He's proud of it.
He loves it.
Think about this for a second.
When they accuse people of being tone deaf because you're white, A black man from Jamaica bragging about a town named after his slave owner in a plantation.
I mean, you just think, you just think, like, someone might have told, did anyone proofread this?
Like, ah, you know what, hey, you know what, Mr. Harry, you might want to, I highlighted some portions in red.
That's the best part about this subservience and that, yeah.
I worked so hard on that.
That's what we want.
Also, I did the Tanqueray commercial.
Let's just not do that because they no longer want to be associated with this.
So here is something that is important to me.
While we look at everything through the lens of identity politics.
Kamala Harris, obviously, she's a wealthy person.
She was raised in Jamaica, right?
Slave owner.
That's the ancestry.
So are we going to argue that Kamala Harris, coming here to the United States, has faced the same kind of discrimination or systemic racism that African-Americans are claiming is an experience today?
And here's also the problem with that.
Let's take it a step further, because they say you have white privilege, you have, well, really, Asian privilege now, too.
That's a thing because of Harvard and Brown.
It's just because we're better.
Yeah, that is true.
It's genetics!
Everyone gets uncomfortable when you say genetics and you talk about how Asians are better, but they are!
They do better, right?
I mean, they're taking over a bunch of the economy.
There's like 19 billion of them.
I don't know why, but your people are fertile, Bill.
You look at them wrong, they get pregnant.
So you want to say that a lady who came from Jamaica, the descendant of slave owners, has it worse off than, let's say, someone from West Virginia, who is not the descendant of slave owners, who was raised in poverty?
You know what?
I'll use myself as a very specific example, because we assume that all white Americans are the beneficiaries of slavery.
In my case, I was raised in Montreal, Canada.
some degree or another and that black people today, today in 2020, are somehow still feeling
those systemic effects.
And that may be true in some scenarios.
In my case, I was raised in Montreal, Canada.
So on my dad's lineage, I don't know exactly if there are any slave owners.
Don't think there were because we go all the way back on my dad's side to French people.
Jacques Cartier discovered Canada.
On my mom's side, absolutely not.
So I was raised in French Canada as an English-speaking Canadian.
Look up the language police and the language laws in Quebec.
I couldn't open up a diner, Stephen's Apostrophe Diner, because it would be against the laws because it was written in English.
I had to go to all French schools until the fourth grade.
They thought I might be retarded!
Turns out, after, when they switched me over to an English school, I was still retarded, but the point remains.
But you were with your people.
Well, let's be careful, especially when we bridge genetics and people.
We're talking about French Canadians.
So I was raised in a family where my parents shopped at Goodwill Salvation Army.
None of us benefited from slavery in any way, and I was in a province, in a country, this is the problem with multiculturalism, where there was known systemic legal discrimination against people who were English speakers regardless As to whether they were born in Quebec or not.
You could be born in Quebec, your parents could be English and born in Quebec, yet you still faced systemic discrimination.
Then I moved to the United States, lived in an 82 Datsun, and finally we have this show here.
And you know what?
I wouldn't say dreams come true, but good enough!
And you're still returning!
Yeah, exactly!
You know, I'm on the spectrum and so I want to be an inspiration to people out there who need a weighted blanket in thunderstorms.
Look!
This could all be yours!
So compare my upbringing with Kamala Harris and you want to say that I need to check my white privilege?
You're talking about direct descendants of slavery, and they brag about it!
This is the problem that happens, and this is why you're going to see more racism in the United States, and I'm really scared about it.
I really am genuinely frightened that you're going to see a lot of young Americans in a similar scenario, people who have not seen a leg up, who have been told that they need to be guilted, that they need to be silent, sit down, shut up, and listen, and then they're browbeaten, and then someone like Kamala Harris comes in and talks about how hard she has it, when there is verifiable proof that she benefited from slavery.
And, kind of like the Lolo Jones, Kamala Harris could use it both ways.
Dye her hair blonde?
You're none the wiser.
You'd be like, Indonesian?
I don't know.
Can we bring up Lolo Jones at the Olympics?
She was like the biracial athlete.
Then I just watched a recent documentary.
She was like hair brown.
And people were like, oh, I guess she's biracial.
There you go.
There's Lolo Jones.
Now let's look at Lolo Jones today.
I don't know if we can find a picture of Lolo Jones today.
She looks like she's picking up a pumpkin spice latte.
And my point is, that's, yeah!
Totally different person.
Good for her.
Play both sides of that coin.
Kamala Harris could do the same thing.
Gotta use it.
Alright.
Here's another issue.
As a prosecutor, while we're talking about Black Lives Matter and the riots, the violent riots, she kept inmates jailed for longer to use them as cheap labor.
She supported the death penalty, which may surprise people, and she incarcerated over 1,500 people for marijuana offenses.
So if we're talking about moving the needle forward for the potheads who just want to get blitzed, she too is not your candidate.
Can you guys explain this to people who may not be up on the nerdiness of the prison sentences?
Yeah, I mean, I think that the basic scenario there was that nonviolent offenders were supposed to be eligible for parole after serving half their sentence, right?
Because you've got crowded prisons, etc.
And she wanted to keep them in to use for cheap labor.
So essentially another form of slavery, right?
You might say.
Yeah, she's continuing the tradition.
She owes two groups of people reparations at this point.
I mean, what's interesting about that is that traditionally you're gonna see, at least even with Trump, you've seen a lot of attacks about him being the law and order president and kind of, you know, doing, not that actually, what's funny is even he doesn't do that, right?
Right.
Well he did the, was it the, what was her name, Alice Marie Johnson?
Yeah.
And then his First Step Act was actually one of the first steps towards changing the laws on harsh sentences for non-violent offenders.
Right, but at that time, you know, the laws were the laws, the judges needed to do what they needed to do.
The only one who really had a lot of discretion, certainly judges had some with regards to evidence or, you know, sentencing, but it came down to the prosecutors.
It came down To the District Attorney for the City of San Francisco and what they were doing and how they decided to not only bring cases, but what sentences they were asking for and what they were doing on the back end when it came time for parole.
You cannot lay this at the feet of anyone other than Kamala Harris.
And I don't know, maybe they just thought, hey, you know, we do actually have to show that we're tough.
I mean, certainly not, you know, push up, punch out McGee over here with Biden.
You know, you've got to actually have someone who's talking about it.
But the problem is, I don't think they realize that A lot of folks really don't want that.
It's clouded their message.
I don't know how that flew in San Francisco.
How she basically extended prisoner sentences to use them as cheap labor and also put in non-violent pot users.
How did that happen at all?
Was it just because she was dating Willie Brown?
Did she just sort of slide in under the radar?
What happened there?
Who was she banging to make non-violent drug offenders end up in prison in San Francisco?
You could smoke a joint In the foyer of the police precinct in San Francisco, and not even, no one would bat an eye.
Now, granted, you'd have to have a little hole in your mask and some kind of a suction so it creates some kind of a positive pressure environment, but the point remains, smoke your weed in San Francisco and shit on the lawn.
Has anyone heard, I haven't seen, I've been trying to look around, but like her explanation for... She said she didn't know.
That was her explanation, but she didn't know.
She's still with that one?
Yeah, she's still with that one.
Whoops!
Whoopsie!
I had no idea!
I had no idea!
Just like I had no idea that I owe reparations to the guy who was locked up for a baggie of weed, as well as the ambassador for Red Stripe.
I didn't know that I had harmed these many people, even though it was written about in national op-eds from my dad.
Hey, by the way, Dad, if you're listening, shut up, please.
Stop talking.
You know, I think we should just go on a track record question.
Right.
And if you don't know what's going on, you know, for keeping people in prison in your small, one-city legal department, what we should definitely do is just let you be in charge of the country.
Yeah, exactly.
Who would have ever thought that the biracial, black, Asian-American, POS to use Bill's terms, Kamala Harris, would be running Right, she would be the lady who was locking up non-violent black offenders and extending their sentences, running against Donald Trump, who actually commuted sentences and introduced legislation that eases penalties on non-violent drug offenders, despite the fact that he's a teetotaler.
Who would have thought that the most moderate Democrat that we have, according to the New York Times, actually is to the right of Attila the Hun when it comes to criminal justice?
Though, of course, she's changed that now because she listened to some Tupac.
At a time before he was born.
I smoked a little weed, don't forget about that.
I smoked a little weed?
Really?
Was it rolled by a slave?
No, no, that's called a prison worker.
That is probably the most, like, the lack of self-awareness for her to talk about, and clearly what was a lie.
But to even lie about doing something that is the same type of offense of the people she was making serve additional time beyond what they were normally serving.
Now again, she didn't create the laws, right?
So the laws were what the laws were.
But she was the one that had a power to make a difference.
And so when, you know, even folks on the left, like you're going, hey, you know, let's, let's think about this.
Let's look past the color rainbow and figure out, oh, what about the merits?
Right.
You know, and I think, I know I'm so pissed about this and I'll shut up after this point.
I don't want you to shut up.
But whenever you get a candidate of color from the right, they never want to talk about it.
They're all, it's just, you know, whether it's Bobby Jindal when he was in Louisiana, or Herman Cain, or any of the, it's, well, it goes from either, you're an Uncle Tom, right, Ben Carson, it's either you're Uncle Tom, or, oh, suddenly everyone's colorblind.
We could look past just the race.
Let's talk about what he actually said.
Right.
And if we're going to, by the way, if we're going to list accomplishments, because I do understand that there obviously can be landmarks, you know, with black people, okay?
When you look at Robinson number 43, you're like, okay, the first black person.
Before that, they were watching all white people.
Do you have any idea how boring it must have been to watch sports when it was all white people?
Think about that.
All of a sudden the world records were just shattered.
It wasn't even close.
Any sport that involved fast twitch muscle fibers was like, I don't know, we thought Babe Ruth was the guy.
Have you seen what happened?
That guy was spitting out beach nut and then going out there and hitting homers and he wouldn't even be able to hit a strike.
Anyway, that's the point.
There are landmarks.
I understand it.
The first black president.
I would agree.
And I even thought when that happened, the one good thing to maybe come from Barack Obama, you know, socialism notwithstanding, is, okay, first black president, maybe we'll have some healing.
So I think there's some validity to saying the first black president.
And the exact opposite happened.
Right, the exact opposite happened.
It was under Barack Obama that we ended up with Black Lives Matter and a more racial divide than ever before.
And that's what actually caused Donald Trump to ascend to office.
But you're still trying the same playbook.
Hope you like 2020.
What is remarkable to me is everything on CNN or the radio, NPR this morning, marking history.
The first person of color to be nominated as a female vice presidential candidate.
No, sorry.
The first female of color nominated for vice president.
We had a black president!
We had a black president, okay?
A half-black VP.
By the way, we've already had female VPs nominated.
We had a female nominated for the presidency.
Half-black female nominee.
Okay.
You're going to put that up as though it's more history-making than the black guy.
And by the way, not kind of black.
We're not playing for the B team.
He wasn't a benchwarmer.
You're talking about the guy who was raised in Detroit to a single mother household, tried to stab her but hit her belt buckle, and was the first man to separate conjoined twins at the brain!
And you can shimmy black in there!
The first black man to separate conjoined twins at the brain!
We just skim past it because she has a vagina and a little more melanin, which, to quote Nick Cannon, gives her a soul.
I don't know if you know this, all of us end up in never-ending purgatory unless we're black, according to Nick Cannon.
My point is, if we're going to talk about historical landmarks, it does need to be applied equally.
And yes, Herman Cain, of course, Condoleezza Rice, Colin Powell, but to me, Dr. Ben Carson is really the perfect example.
And of course, Officer David Dorn, when we talk about him.
He's not the first, but I think he's a great example of what people should look to during these times.
When we talk about examples for people, and if we're going to be looking at everyone through the prism of race, which is what we're doing with Kamala Harris, we're seeing this right now.
It's vagina and race.
It's vagina and racial genetics.
It's vagina and ethnic makeup.
That's all that matters right now in the vice presidential pick.
She didn't make it far in the primaries.
It's not like he picked the most capable here.
She proved verifiably that no one liked her.
But as soon as you look past the woman of color thing, you have to start finding all the horrible, horrible things about her.
They don't want you to see past that.
No, exactly.
The man behind the curtain, Wizard of Oz, in her case it would just be a slave.
Like, I work harder!
I'll make faster!
I'm sorry, Kamala.
Free me?
That's what they did, they muttered to themselves, free me, free you.
Oh my god, I cannot believe that her dad bragged about owning slaves and Snopes is like, I don't know, this one's up in the air.
I don't know, did you ask him?
Snopes, did you make a phone call?
Okay, here's another one.
We're talking about criminal justice.
It's just the attitude that she has, in case you're thinking, well, this could be taken out of context.
Maybe she actually really is about criminal justice reform and about being more lenient, about being more compassionate.
Here we have a clip, thank you Rich for finding this, where she laughed about prosecuting the parents of children who committed truancy violations, meaning they were skipping class.
So I decided I was going to start prosecuting parents for truancy.
She's so happy with herself.
Like she invented the light bulb.
And frankly, my staff went bananas.
They were very concerned.
We sent it out.
Because it's a horrible idea.
A friend of mine actually called me and said, Kamala, my wife got the letter.
She freaked out.
She brought all the kids into the living room, held up the letter, said, if you don't go to school, Kamala's going to put you and me in jail.
Yes, we achieved an intended effect.
Yeah, you did.
You scared people with the arm of the law that you had no authority to wield.
You crazy wench.
And she's talking like it's a pop-up book.
Like, hmm, we were saying that if the kids didn't listen to their parents, we were gonna put them in the clink as though it was on par with grand larceny.
Can someone get me more sherry?
No, you crazy bitch!
Whoa!
So I had this wacky idea.
Let's jail the parent!
If I was that parent, I'd be like, gather around kids, look at this, we're not going to school anymore.
And by the way, this is something, too, because if we're talking about how laws disproportionately affect people of color, well, let's talk about the idea that, of course, disproportionately, you have a kid in Detroit, for example.
A black child in Detroit, black teenager in Detroit, has more chance of ending up in prison than graduating high school, once they enter into school.
And a big part of this is, yeah, they just don't show up to class.
This happens.
As a demographic, black activists have talked about this and how we need to fix this.
They believe that fixing it is pouring more money into schools.
The point is, this would disproportionately affect black parents, Kamala Harris!
Again, I know you have a blind spot because slavery, I get it, so maybe you're not necessarily super empathetic, but even as just a basic white guy, I'm like, that's pretty screwed up!
Think about that for a second, the parents, and how many inadvertent ass-beatings do you think that this led to?
From black mothers with kids who they found skipping class just because, you know, they didn't want to get hit on a three-strike policy.
Don't.
You.
Ever.
Mom, I just, it was, it was a science fair.
I didn't think I needed to go.
A kid makes a volcano, tosses together some vinegar and baking soda.
I get it.
I went to go to Mickey D's for a coffee.
Don't.
You.
Ever.
Kamala.
Shh.
Kamala ruins everything!
That's the point here!
So I think this, it is inconsistent in a way, right?
That she's doing this.
But I also think it reveals something that we all know deep down to be true, that leftists, when they are in power, they don't mind using that power to make people do stuff.
And so in that way, it does make perfect sense that, you know, she also had the record of going after David DeLayton, remember?
With Planned Parenthood and selling the baby parts.
She went after him, just threw the book at him, or her administration, or whatever.
And obviously, who knows how much money Planned Parenthood is giving to her campaign, right?
And so I think it's naive to think that once these people are in power, they won't use the police force or whatever they have at that point, social workers, to come cart you off and make you do whatever they want to do.
Of course.
So I think it is inconsistent in a way, but it also just sort of shows their hand, that they're not really against using their political power. She wanted to charge parents for the
same reason that in New York they wanted to ban big ups. They think that's a legitimate
role of government. And listen I think yeah I mean I don't even know has anyone seen a truancy
officer? I haven't seen a truancy officer since the untouchables. Are those still things? Yeah I don't
know. I mean probably somewhere.
I mean, but maybe schools have them, you know?
Or, you know, certainly there's officers that maybe, like, their job, the lowest, lowest... You didn't even get traffic duty, right?
You can't even get a car.
You gotta walk around and find kids behind the 7-Eleven.
Feels like a very Mayberry thing to be checking up on.
Right, right.
Do you go to school?
Absolutely.
Which, by the way, I mean, yeah, go ahead, Bill.
No, I was gonna say, I mean, that is the question, though, is, is this indicative of how she intends to use her power?
When given a power, when given a little bit of power, She chooses to create her own definition of what can be punished.
She decides to start inflicting that punishment on parents who would... I think it's pretty hard to make your kid go to school when you're in jail, right?
Or you're in court, or you're having to work extra shifts because you have to pay for the fine that you got from Laffy Taffy, you know, freaking Kamala.
I think he was looking for an insult, and I was like, whatever I say is going to get me in trouble.
Let's write that one down.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Could you see me pulling that?
That's snappy, bro.
Payday O'Henry Snickers Bitch.
Snarkdoodles.
Mars Bar P.O.S.
VP candidate!
You got me thinking Mayberry, that's why.
But then the idea of extending the nonviolent offenders and how they're doing it for marijuana charges, again, that is the idea of, okay, now she's in power, let's multiply that by a thousandfold and what are the types of policies that she will put on individuals when she's allowed to.
And again, based on her own warped view of what's right or wrong.
And that view was shaped by a family that owned slaves in Jamaica.
But here's one thing, I will say, this is something that you may have seen a while ago.
We're just going to have to scrap the second story today because we'll have Ann Dorn on in a little bit.
But first, to introduce you, we don't have these problems.
I recognize this as young white truancy.
Of course, people talk about the police statistics.
And for those who don't know, we hope that you enjoy this installment, accurate to reality, of White Privilege Boys.
And now for the adventures of the White Privilege Boys!
All right there now, Timmy, I know you're a teenager, but if I've told you once, I've told you a thousand times.
You can't park your vehicle faced into oncoming traffic.
Come on, let's move.
Well, gee, officer, I'm sure sorry.
Can I just go back to my car?
No, no, I want you to follow my instructions.
Either get down on the ground or follow me away from the vehicle.
But officer, can't I just get my PCP?
No, well, you know, usually I'd say no, but you can make it quick.
Come on, get on out of here, you white rascal.
Oh, those boys!
What picture will they find themselves in next?
Stay tuned for next week's installment of Adventures of the White Privilege Boys!
Retired St.
Louis Police Captain David Dorn.
Dorn was shot and killed by a looter earlier this week in North St.
Louis.
This was a great cop.
Great cops do exist.
And this is one of them.
Black lives have to matter to us first.
So until then, we're gonna keep on having these instances of Stupid killings and stuff like that.
did. All of them deserve to die like that.
All right, we are back.
Of course, for people who want to go to thelaboclashshop.com and you can purchase this shirt.
I want to let you guys know, though, this shirt is actually, this is the beta form.
This is not the real shirt, which is like inkjet on blue.
So you will get a better shirt.
You'll get the alpha form.
It is a real shirt.
This is a real shirt.
It's not an illusion.
In contrast with my pants, which are today non-existent.
If I couldn't find my pajama pants.
But a robe, good enough.
And we'll be having on here in a couple of moments, we're trying to connect with Miss Anne Dorn, of course.
She is the wife of the officer David Dorn.
Do you say widow?
I don't know the term to use that is non-offensive here, but obviously we say so in the greatest respects.
Listen, one of those things, we have a platform where we can bring attention.
To these kinds of stories, and I will say this, when we were on air with the David Dorn story, for people who don't remember, and by the way, we'll be reading some of your chat behind the paywall in a little bit here, it was the hardest thing I think I had to watch live.
Yeah, that was rough.
It was really tough to watch.
And the reason I think it was so tough to watch when people try and say, well, you don't have the same kind of empathy, for example, George Floyd, we were all really upset about George Floyd.
Everyone here was.
But we all knew that we weren't seeing the full context of that tape.
You see a beginning, middle, and end with the David Dorn tape.
There was a lot that came out right away with that story, and I think the reason it was so gut-wrenching, too, was because no one in the media was really talking about it.
This was a guy who really was a pillar of the community, where he served as an officer for many years.
He was an example that should have and could have been followed, and he was killed, his life was taken, doing exactly what it was that he had done his whole life to try and improve the lives of those in the black community.
He was never a net drain, he was never a net burden, he was always a net positive, and this is someone we could look to if we're talking about finding common ground, and instead, very little coverage.
Very little coverage.
Video silence, it pisses you off.
It really makes you mad that they talk about these other people, but not this hero.
It was King, too, at Change My Mind, who was just on yesterday.
And we'll have more, by the way, with Antifa, I believe, next Tuesday on the Change My Mind and how that escalated.
Where he said, well, I only have so much time in the day.
That was his answer.
I only have so much time in the day.
He didn't know about him.
Didn't really know about him.
He said, was that some kind of a black cop?
As far as he knew, this was Carl Winslow.
He had absolutely no idea.
Who, by the way, I also support.
I back the blue.
Also a hero.
Both real and fictional.
Yeah, not all heroes have a below 48 inch waist.
That's true.
With Carl Winslow.
I don't know, do we have Miss Dorn?
Are we looking to get her here?
It doesn't look like we do.
She's still trying to connect.
We have audio, but it's not letting her do video.
Oh, we have audio, but it's not letting us do video.
It's not letting her do video, but she can hear me right now.
And can we, do we have like a lower third we can bring up?
So people can, if we can't get her to do video, good enough.
I think that her voice being heard is important enough as is.
Miss Anne Dorn, are you there?
Can you hear me?
Just make sure miss and and Dorn are you there? Can you hear me? Oh
I don't believe she can see you guys. We're not seeing any indication there. No
She can hear us, but we can't hear her All right, let's grab Bill and Reg.
Let's bring them back in here because right now I don't want to go to story number two and then go back to Ann Dorn.
But I'm really looking forward to having her on.
So I do want to have her on a little bit.
Just let me know when we have the connection.
I don't know what's going on with this damn Apple TV.
Bill, Reg, get back in here!
Somebody help me!
Here's another story that we have before we bring on Jordan.
Just let me know when we do.
Yeah, we'll do.
There was another murder that happened that you may not have heard about yesterday.
This one makes me mad.
Yeah, this one is a piss-off.
Since everything is being seen through the prism of race and through the prism of guilt and vilification with officers out there and the idea, of course, that they're out hunting young black males and that there are no ramifications for people There are no ramifications for white people, right, who kill black people.
That's what we're often hearing right now, particularly white officers.
We do know, and we'll talk about this a little bit more, obviously, the interracial crime is something that needs to be discussed.
And it needs to be discussed honestly and accurately, and that means looking at the data.
And the data is pretty clear that black Americans right now are 10 times more likely to commit violence against white Americans than vice versa.
You just don't know the names of those victims.
Well, here's another one that you may be surprised to learn about, and there's nothing graphic here, so I don't need to warn you, but I believe his name was, was it Cannon Hinnant?
Hinnant?
How is the last name pronounced?
It says it in the video.
A five-year-old in North Carolina who was shot riding his bike in his front yard, and then his neighbor, Darius Sessoms, shot this kid in the head.
I believe we have a clip from the local news affiliate.
Five-year-old Cannon Hinnant loved to ride his bike and loved animals.
His mother tells us he was always smiling and loved his family.
Now the family is preparing for his funeral.
Police say 25-year-old Darius Sessoms, a neighbor, shot the child and it was not an accident.
The reason is still unclear.
Police believe the suspect took off in this black Toyota Corolla without a front bumper.
Cannon's family was too distraught to talk on camera.
They just hope the killer is brought to justice.
So I want to be clear.
The motive from the killer right now is still not necessarily entirely clear.
There's a GoFundMe that was started by, I believe, a family member.
Have we confirmed that?
I think it is confirmed.
Who says that the boy did ride into this man's yard.
Not really.
They said that the killer came over to their house the day before.
So they knew each other.
Did he come over to complain about the kid riding his bicycle?
They said for dinner.
They said for dinner.
Yeah.
For dinner.
Yeah.
So do we have any, was this just a case of mistaken identity where he thought it was someone else riding a bicycle on his lawn who he had the right to shoot?
I don't know.
And by the way, I'm all for property rights and I understand that sometimes mistakes are made if there's a threat, but this is a scenario where, again, we have to wait for some context.
A five-year-old on a bicycle, I don't know how you make that mistake.
I can't think of a context where that makes sense.
No, I can't think of a context where it makes sense, and the police right now haven't thought of a context where that makes sense, because at this point I believe that actually there are charges that have been brought.
And you were the one who found this story, Reg, right?
Yeah, no, I just, you know, saw it floating around Twitter, and you just think... The bizarre thing about it is, it's not being reported on by any major outlets.
Right.
You know, MSNBC, ABC, etc.
I think we actually have an overlay there for people to see.
We have MSNBC, CNN, NBC, Washington Post, ABC, when this story had happened, and not a single one covered it.
Yeah, we went through and just, I checked them this morning just to see if anyone had covered it and just, nothing.
Right.
So, I mean, you just think if the races were reversed, the headline, you know, five-year-old black boy riding his bike, playing with his sisters, and his white neighbor comes out and shoots him in the head, it would be all we would hear about for months.
Right.
And there would be no wait for a context or anything.
Right, no, exactly.
Even if charges were brought, by the way.
That's what I'm saying.
It doesn't really matter because there were charges brought against Officer Chauvin pretty damn quickly.
And then they upped the charges and it still wasn't enough.
And in this case, we're just seeing it reversed.
And it really is remarkable that you're not seeing this story anywhere.
I'm not saying it's indicative of all crime going on in this country, but when you look at this and you say, okay, the media is not covering this.
Let me ask you, have you ever heard the media when they talk about Officers, right?
Police officers and police brutality.
Have they ever told you that you're actually more likely to be shot by a cop if you're white?
Have they ever told you that there's a higher percentage of police officers who are minority than the general population?
Have they ever told you that more likely to use force against a minority perpetrator is a minority officer?
Have they ever told you that there's a ten times the rate of black-on-white crime versus white-on-black crime?
Have they ever told you that the number one cause of death for young black men under the age of 44 is homicide?
Have they ever told you that an officer is 18 times more likely to be shot by a young black male than vice versa?
Now, you can look at this through the prism of race, and melanin, as someone like Nick Cannon does, which basically is just a form of genetic supremacy, or you can look at this and say, there is something very broken right now in our culture with broken people, black and white.
Now, it is black and white.
People are broken, but people are broken in different ways in different communities.
And we've talked about that with a 70% fatherless household right now in black American households.
That's a real problem.
And it manifests itself in ways that, unfortunately, there are real consequences.
And we're not focusing on the real consequences because people are shouting the loudest.
How do we know that they're shouting the loudest?
Because they're robbing Tesla dealerships and burning down police precincts.
It doesn't mean that what they are saying is right.
Now, it doesn't mean that this story is something that should inspire you to go out and only care about this story.
That's not what I'm saying at all.
But what I am saying is this is a story that wasn't covered because of political expediency from the media, and statistically you need to understand that this is far more likely than happening when the roles are reversed.
But when the roles are reversed, that's all you hear about.
And that's why I think it's important for every American out there to assume that there is no unbiased journalism.
To assume that you're getting a spin and you have to do your due diligence.
Because no one, how does no one, I mean this is freaking catnip for fear-mongering media.
Well yeah, and I think that's the thing that's so disturbing is you think there's no argument that this isn't newsworthy.
I mean, I have not heard any story like this in recent memory of a child being shot in their front yard, you know, in front of their siblings.
But, you know, and again, we don't know the motive.
The guy could be schizophrenic.
He could have mental problems or have some problem that has nothing to do with race.
I certainly don't think it's racially motivated.
I think it's a tragedy.
It's just a tragedy that's not covered equally.
But where the race comes in is that There was conversations apparently at these news outlets that said don't cover this because of the race, right?
That's the only explanation is that there were some conversations had at ABC, MSNBC, CNN, NBC, so on and so forth that there was for some reason don't cover this story because it doesn't And I think there were similar conversations, or certainly it would seem that way if you run those searches in those same major outlets.
With our next guest in the story, of course, Officer David Dorn.
You can go to ladderwithcrowdershop.com and purchase this shirt.
All proceeds will go to the family affected.
I believe we have her on.
Miss Anne Dorn, can you hear me?
I can.
Well, thank you so much for being here.
I appreciate you making the time.
And what do you, for Mrs. Ann Dorn, Miss Dorn, Ann, I, you know, it's one of, obviously this is a sensitive subject, and you're on under circumstances that I wish were different, and I get intensely uncomfortable.
I'm sorry, I had an echo.
I couldn't hear you very well.
That's okay.
It was just me making nonsensical statements.
I'll go with Mrs. Dorn.
Listen, for people who may not know this story, we were just talking about the media, what they cover, what they don't cover, and for people who watch this stream, we did show a portion of the video of your husband, your late husband, an American hero, and it was one of the hardest things that I ever had watched on air.
We actually had to cut to someone else.
I had to kind of gather myself, but Unfortunately, a lot of people out there, and we just found this out last week by the Black Lives Matter activists with whom we spoke on the street in Austin, they weren't familiar with this story at all.
Could you sort of brief people, for those who aren't in the know, which unfortunately is too many?
The night of June 2nd, my husband was helping a friend, as he always does, and he was answering an alarm call.
Which he's done numerous times before without any problems.
And during that call, he was shot by a looter.
Unfortunately, he was killed.
Yeah, and that's the short end of it.
I think people should know that your husband, Officer David Dorn, he was part of the St.
Louis PD for how many, was it 30-something years?
He spent 38 years with the St.
Louis Metropolitan Police Department.
He retired as a captain.
Right.
And you yourself as well, if I'm not mistaken, you were your sergeant?
I'm a sergeant, yes.
Okay.
27 years.
27 years.
So both police officers and you, we'll get into kind of the Explorers program, which you did with young people interested in law enforcement.
And I know I want to make sure that people know there is going to be, before we move on, a Peace March on August 29th in downtown St.
Louis that I believe you're a part of, correct?
Correct.
Yes.
Yes, correct.
29th at 10am.
And what do you intend to accomplish with this peace march right now?
Because obviously there are plenty of marches, or as people in the media would say, peaceful protests going on across the country.
It almost sounds like, well, why do we need another peaceful march?
It's almost as though there's a contrast with what's actually going on right now.
I'm trying to bring all walks of life together.
Everyone on both sides of the debate, the good and the bad, the right and the wrong, you know, everybody has their own opinions.
But I want to start the conversation.
I want to start the healing process.
I've worked with kids.
I've worked with youth for 27 years.
And I want us to reach out to them.
And I want to figure out how do we heal the community?
How do we start?
We have to start at home first and figure out what's broken.
And I want to figure out, like I said, I want to figure out what's broken so we can try and heal.
Yeah.
And try and bring some peace back to the community.
Well, I think some...
Sir, I know there is a little bit of an echo, so I apologize if I interrupt.
I'm also interrupting myself right now, so we're both the victim of my labour mouth.
Let me ask you this, because right now obviously the narrative is that what is broken is the police force, and that they are targeting young black Americans in record numbers right now.
That's why we have the Black Lives Matter protest.
That's what people believe, true or not.
I think a lot of people aren't aware that there's a higher percentage of police officers who are minorities in the general population, and unfortunately they often get the worst They get the brunt of it because sometimes they're seen as traitors or they're seen as Uncle Tom.
This has happened a lot.
My dad was raised in Detroit.
He was there during the Detroit riots.
He had a friend who had a father who was a black officer.
He had to go home in unmarked cars back then.
Considering how it's almost there's they are unsung heroes and often black officers aren't given the credit that they deserve.
Why would someone like your husband David Dorn go into what inspired me to go into what is unfortunately often a thankless role?
He just loved helping the community.
He's always been a giving spirit.
He's always been a godly man.
Whatever he could do to help somebody is, I guess, is what led him in that direction.
His father was a reserve officer years and years ago, when very few blacks were even on the department and allowed to be on the department.
So I think having his father as a reserve officer really inspired him to follow in his footsteps.
Well, yeah, and that's interesting that he wanted to serve his community.
He wanted to help people.
And he saw becoming a police officer as a way to do that.
And I'd like to continue on that.
Andorn, if you can hold for one second.
Right now we are going to cut this feed on YouTube because for some reason they gave us problems.
So YouTube, you can take a hike.
