	this week.
	I'm your host, Michael McCrudden.
	you Head over to the shop, support the fight, and buy some cool threads.
	It's the Tits Pajamas!
	dot-com.
	as a
	Mmmmm!
	Delicious.
	It's a good long sip.
	It's a great, uh, I have some fizzy water today.
	How do you not choke with the sipping then?
	What do you mean?
	It's fizzy water.
	It's like it's bubbles and you see it.
	Yeah, you can.
	Did your parents never teach you how to drink?
	They didn't get around to it.
	Fizzy water?
	What's the first thing when you're sick you have a sore throat?
	They have you drink like 7-Up or Sprite because it's easier.
	You don't like turl it.
	You don't like sip it in like that.
	Don't use your silly wine tasting terms.
	Turl and toil and trouble.
	Let's see if he weighs as much as a duck.
	We're going to be talking about a lot.
	Look, yesterday we were live on air and there was a shooting happening in Arlington and my general policy is Don't talk about those things until you get more information.
	Statistically, the early reports are usually wrong, and they were.
	Way off.
	And now, of course, for a lot of reasons, the media wants to memory hole a mass shooting at a school.
	Four people were shot.
	Why?
	And usually they, of course, well, of course, they wrote it.
	Moms demand action.
	We're politicizing this before the bodies had even assumed room temperature.
	And as part of, of course, the mission statement with the show, we want to talk With you about what you can do to protect yourself and what solutions there possibly are.
	It's always tragic when it happens.
	Thank God nobody died.
	But it is important to understand why the media is saying nothingness.
	Yeah.
	It's a figment of your imagination.
	We'll also be talking about the new James Bond film.
	Yeah!
	I'm excited about that.
	The Dead Sea.
	Come on!
	We'll do it very, very shortly.
	And of course, the new Dave Chappelle.
	Dave Chappelle's been sparking controversy again.
	Oh, well, good.
	Yeah, good for him.
	You mean for telling jokes?
	Yeah.
	I think it's correct.
	Comedy.
	Yes.
	Once upon a time.
	Well, it used to be allowed.
	Back in a simpler day, we were allowed to have involuntary emotions like laughter.
	So my question to you is, what do you think we're going to see as far as the media coverage?
	On Arlington.
	They haven't been covering it at all this morning.
	Now they're going back to Donald Trump and the attempted coup, which also, by the way, is pretty interesting when you compare the bail set for this guy who shot four people on school grounds versus the bail set for Kyle Rittenhouse, or versus people held for indefinite amounts of time for trespassing.
	Yes, trespassing.
	A very serious crime.
	No, it's the greatest insurrection in American history.
	Well what happened?
	Get it right.
	It was the most violent day in American history.
	Don't ask questions.
	other than the bombings.
	By the way, before I get there, Dave A.
	Sorry, Dave A.
	Whoa, whoa.
	Gerald A.
	I'll explain to you on Monday.
	I had a long day yesterday, but I just don't want to be a downer.
	Gerald Leigh, how are you?
	I am well, sir.
	I'm feeling better.
	Good for you.
	You don't have the COVID either.
	That's great.
	I was disappointed.
	I thought I was paying my dues.
	That's probably why you feel like such crap.
	We have Quarterback Garrett.
	How are you?
	What's going on?
	No COVID?
	No.
	So far.
	Good for you.
	I'm hesitant about the vaccine and everything.
	He's dodging all that stuff.
	He is three quarters hesitant.
	Also looks like the mugshot of the next mass shooter, so let's be careful.
	Keep an eye on him.
	We love you.
	Walther, don't send anything to Carter Black Garrett.
	I don't believe you!
	And Dave Landau is here, you can follow him on the Twitter, and he has a show coming up, actually a weekend at the Orlando Improv, October 15th through 16th.
	How are you, sir?
	Good, ahoy, ahoy.
	Yes, October 15th, 16th, Orlando Improv.
	That's where the Disney place is.
	Oh, really?
	Okay.
	Today's going with the Run Dave MC look.
	That's correct.
	And I even have the matching shoes.
	Oh.
	My, my, my Adidas.
	See that?
	My, my, my Adidas.
	Nice.
	I'd go all out.
	I like it.
	Before we move on to anything else, I figured why not start off the day with a little bit of racism.
	Now, not from us, right?
	No, that would never happen.
	But from someone here who may surprise you, a father yelling at the A person of color.
	Boyfriend.
	Grammatically, person of color makes it so hard.
	Black boyfriend, okay?
	Yes, it does.
	That's really racist to say person of color.
	The POC is right next to POS where it just doesn't make sense.
	Yes, no, absolutely right.
	It's not a good acronym.
	Aren't we all people of color?
	No.
	We are all POSs because we're all people of shades.
	Oh my god, or the other meaning of that.
	Yeah, well, all of it.
	We are all, look, what I am saying, here's my point.
	Genetically superior.
	Yes, and that means all of us.
	Genetically superior, therefore no one is genetically superior.
	We are all equally people of shades and shit.
	Just to be clear.
	So just when people say, you're making right, no, no, I believe that people Black, white, yellow, red, right?
	We can do the Johnny Mathis.
	Black, white, yellow, red, no matter.
	That's what he sings about when a child is born, about Jesus Christ being born.
	By the way, I was also gay, Johnny Mathis.
	Oh, really?
	Didn't know that at all.
	Gay and set like a track record, I think, in college for 100 meter dash, so.
	Running after just other men.
	I mean, if he wants you, you're not getting away.
	They tied a penis to a stick like they used to do with a carrot.
	Very effective.
	Instead of a rabbit, it's just a cardboard cutout of Carlo Montalban.
	Whatever he gets to the end, he's like, Montalban, I thought it was a strata.
	So, Asian Dad.
	I just ruined the lead.
	You did, you did.
	Yelled at a black boyfriend of his daughter's roommate for not wearing a mask in the dorm.
	Just watch this video.
	Okay, you didn't wash your mask.
	Yeah, I ain't got a haircut.
	Okay, close your mouth.
	Where's the mask?
	Did you read English?
	Did you read English?
	You don't read English?
	Okay, you don't read English.
	Then you should go back to your country, man.
	I don't know where you from.
	Is this a joke, man?
	That's a lousy statement.
	She looks away.
	You're gonna let your dad say this to me?
	She looks away.
	What do you want her to say?
	I'm not talking to you guys.
	This has like 15 million plays.
	I don't know!
	You see, you don't know English!
	I'm from Hong Kong!
	I know English!
	English!
	Well, sort of.
	Watch this.
	You don't know who I am.
	Some English.
	Come on!
	Watch this.
	Show me!
	Show me who you are!
	I'm nervous!
	Are you going to beat me, ma'am?
	Because he's yelling at me, trying to get me.
	Yeah, beat me!
	Come on!
	I'm scared!
	I'm scared!
	It's like he's auditioning for a movie he's just not going to get the role in.
	take it down a notch buddy. Well you say that because obviously look there's been a spat that
	of course now that they're no longer the useful POC's the Asians there's been a spat of anti-asian
	hate crimes committed and some suspect that this was actually just an elaborate leak for
	the upcoming remake of Falling Down which makes oh no.
	We actually have an alternate poster.
	Oh, do we?
	Oh, there he is.
	I'm a nothing like you!
	Falling Down!
	I just so want a breakfast.
	Take us on shooting rations, asshole!
	I love how this guy's making fun of his English in poor English.
	You know what, though?
	You know what about the breakfast scene in that movie where he's in the fast food?
	I understand wanting McDonald's breakfast so bad you pull out a gun.
	I get it.
	But rules are rules.
	Rules are rules.
	That's when it was shut down.
	Five minutes over.
	Yeah, you could have come in ten minutes earlier, but unfortunately you were waving a gun in traffic.
	That being said, if they don't make your sundae look like the picture, well it's out of my hands.
	Yeah, that's true.
	Nothing I can do.
	What happened to the Uzi?
	You know, it was a good 80s gun.
	Yeah, it was.
	They don't use it anymore.
	It's incredibly ineffective.
	What?
	There's a reason.
	Yeah, but it looks so cool.
	Keanu Reeves used it in the Matrix.
	He brought it back.
	Did he?
	Yeah.
	Oh, okay.
	In the buildings.
	Well, it turns out all you need to dodge it is a little bit of wire, just like Julie Andrews and Peter Pan.
	What a great film!
	It's like we're in a simulation.
	Okay, you've really thought this through.
	I like that people quote it now to compare it to life.
	Yes!
	That's my favorite part.
	It's like a glitch in the Matrix, right?
	Oh my god, it's such an original thought, please leave my house.
	Like I haven't heard it for 20 years straight.
	Oh yeah, no, we are in philosophy first semester at Schenectady College.
	Yeah, you're right, this is great.
	Where's my Uzi?
	I'd like to point it in my mouth because it's ineffective.
	Yes.
	That's why I have a tow trigger on my shotgun.
	So, let's move on to... Are you Kurt Cobain?
	I'm kidding, his wife killed him.
	Go on!
	Go on!
	And banned.
	Okay, we're already demonetized.
	What are we going to do?
	Well, I think we've all heard that theory.
	Did I ever tell you this story?
	You know, when they called me, can I just, I don't want to go rogue right here, but the Vox Apocalypse happened, you know, before they created, we talked about this yesterday, the industry, sometimes known as the Crowder Rule.
	Sorry!
	Oops!
	When they called me, YouTube, after the Vox Apocalypse, and they were, it was me on the phone, they were reading from a sheet of paper, right?
	So I see me being talked about everywhere, and senators saying, I need a ban, blah blah blah, and I'm going like, oh my gosh, this is getting out of control.
	Their stock, you know, Alphabet, Google, their stock price takes a nosedive, they release these new guidelines, and they call, and they start reading off of a sheet of paper, you know, after having reviewed your content, we believe here at the, you know, reading this whole stock letter, and I, this is when I had, I thought I might be having a heart attack.
	I think it was an actual panic attack, just because I thought, oh my gosh, they're going to remove the channel, everything, and create a new rule, even though we've already been told that we haven't broken any rules.
	So the room started spinning, and I swear to you, and I lay down, and I'm like, oh gosh.
	OK.
	And then they finally get to, we have decided to officially demonetize your channel.
	Sure!
	Okay, I'll take it.
	Oh, sure, yeah!
	Oh, yeah!
	Oh, no!
	I'm from Hong Kong!
	I'm scammed!
	You scammed me!
	You speak English?
	That's the only time I've ever heard that voice say, go back to your country.
	While in America.
	Yeah, it's like only a redneck has said that, and that guy.
	Go to my country, they shove woodchips up your thumb!
	That's Cambodia, right?
	No, that's Japanese and Chinese.
	They shove woodchips up your thumbs, which is a very creative form of torture and tells you that their militaries have too much time on their hands.
	Should have been like, I was wearing a mask, but until you walked in, I was pleasing your daughter.
	Now you have potty mouth!
	I'm scared!
	Now you praise me!
	Oh yeah, now you have potty mouth!
	Nothing like a perpetuating original stereotype!
	See, there's no proof that this is how we really talk.
	No proof at all.
	If I was that kid, I'd be like, say an L. Say a word with an L correctly and I will put on my mask.
	How about when you use verb correctly, okay?
	Conjunction, junction, what's your funk?
	I speak a king of English!
	I'm only bringing it up because he brought it up.
	I'm sorry, he made fun of his English.
	Say Little League and I'll wear a mask for the next five years.
	Better yet, read this live ad for colloidal silver.
	He started it.
	I'm sorry.
	No, but it's funny because it's like you get called racist where it's like all these things are based on something that's real.
	It's racist to suggest that people from Hong Kong pronounce their L's and R's differently.
	My mom's French-Canadian.
	She never uses plurals properly.
	I don't understand it.
	Everyone here knows it.
	She will never include an S where it's required, and then she'll add it where she doesn't need to.
	She'll be like, well, I have Toussaint.
	Okay, but then she'll say, oh, but tonight I'm going to order shrimps.
	Oh my god, stop!
	Well, technically it's multiple shrimp, I guess.
	I went and got tacos with her one time, and she took the tortilla off, and she was like, I don't like to eat the skins.
	I love Francine.
	Well, Michigan's the same way where they add S to everything.
	It's like, I work at Ford's.
	I went down to Walmart's.
	Used to be Kmart's.
	You know, I committed some arsons.
	No, that was correct.
	It was multiples.
	That is true.
	In Detroit, I mean, look.
	In for a penny?
	Yeah.
	It's really one arson.
	So here's something else.
	Dave Chappelle.
	Let's talk about this.
	I think we missed it.
	Dave Chappelle is in hot water.
	And of course, I haven't had time to watch it.
	I wanted to watch it last night.
	But he's catching a lot of flack for going after the people.
	Or just really making jokes about, of course, the taboo topics.
	And this is how you know something is actually risky.
	There's even discussion potentially of Netflix maybe pulling it.
	What?
	I don't know how true it is.
	Hope not.
	I think what would likely happen is they just won't renew.
	Come on, it's the closing, I think it's the end.
	Because they have to pay him anyway.
	After the Comedy Central thing, Dave Chappelle, people don't know this, Dave Chappelle was not paid and they owned his likeness.
	A lot of people don't know this, but Comedy Central was a really raw deal.
	Wow.
	So he was very meticulous with his Netflix deal, so even if they decide to pull it, they have to pay him anyway.
	So it's in their best interest to run it.
	We'll get to some of the jokes that of course have caused some pearl clutching.
	Here's a clip.
	Comedians have a responsibility to speak recklessly.
	Sometimes the funniest thing to say is mean.
	Remember, I'm not saying it to be mean.
	I'm saying it because it's funny.
	Let's play.
	5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
	Are you ready?
	Yeah.
	Right now some guys at home watching are going, HE'S NOT EVEN WEARING A MASK!
	GO BACK!
	What country are you from?
	I'm worried!
	I actually opened for him at that theater before.
	At that same theater?
	Yeah, he shot it in Detroit.
	Well for people who don't know, Dave told a wonderful story about that on Mug Club.
	That was an arena.
	That was the first time I opened for him.
	That was like 05.
	Yeah, that was when the first time I've been for him. Yeah when he was there's like oh five
	Congratulations right after the crowd of yourself Actually, I'd say it's pretty hard.
	No, absolutely.
	Oh yeah, I mean, I don't really know.
	Like, Norm Macdonald said that Dave Chappelle was, you know, I think he called him, like, the god of comedy.
	He's the god, man.
	And Dave Chappelle did this in tribute to Norm Macdonald.
	So you have a guy who people are trying to cancel right now, Dave Chappelle, a pock, of course, honoring a guy who was cancelled for the last three years of his life.
	And then extra cancelled once he died.
	Yeah.
	Apparently, you know, he sexually assaulted people by saying folksy things.
	Yeah.
	So Dave came out, Dave Chappelle came out, I say Dave like we're on the first name basis.
	One of the things that got him in trouble was he said he got diagnosed with COVID but didn't even get the sniffles.
	And people got really mad about that.
	That happens.
	Well, yeah.
	Well, yeah, he was he talks about in the video where he was in a room, you know, for days.
	Yeah.
	Just watching on the TV.
	And he said he kept seeing videos of black people running up and just like punching Asians in the face and hurting them.
	And he and he just kept thinking, like, you know, that's exactly what's happening in my body right now.
	Dude, that is a perfect joke.
	He's acknowledging what's going on.
	He's comparing it to his own blood.
	It's a perfect joke.
	And of course, instantly people are mad.
	I'm not saying it's right!
	That's the kind of thing he'll say.
	Hilarious.
	What'd he say?
	He said he also asked us, so I have these because again I did not get to watch it last night.
	Usually I try, we might do a live watch along here this week or next week with you guys.
	He asked this female friend who I guess is a comedy writer.
	Really?
	There you go.
	If she was going to the Women's March and she replied, I hope those white bitches get tear gas.
	I guess he makes a joke about beating up a lesbian in a bar, but it was self-defense because he thought it was a guy.
	He said, I tenderize them titties like chicken cutlets!
	I wolfed the toxic masculinity out that bitch.
	But he talks about how he's there, and this girl he's just talking to, being polite, and this dude steps between them, and at some point in the conversation realizes she's a woman, and he's like, you're a woman?
	Yeah!
	And he's just, it's so honest.
	And anyone who acts like that has not happened.
	I know, when you're like, oh that's a- That happens daily.
	And I have very few human social interactions on a daily basis outside of this studio.
	If you're being honest, there are lesbian couples you see where you're like, how's that not a guy?
	There's just no penis.
	I just don't understand it.
	It's like, I am repulsed by men, okay.
	I'm attracted to women, okay.
	So I want a chick who ratchets down her tits and shops at Orvis.
	I don't understand it.
	If I were gay, if I were gay, I wouldn't be picking the Boy Georgias of the world.
	I would be picking the most masculine.
	Look, I get you, but I'm just saying, this is why it's funny to people who are not lesbians or gay.
	It's weird.
	It's confusing.
	Yeah, because you're dating a girl who looks like John Goodman playing Dan Conner.
	Or Linda Tripp.
	It's like, that's not a woman, that's a lady in a hard hat smoking a cigarette and a flannel, and it's like, that's my lady.
	Yeah, that's my lady.
	Girlfriend.
	I'm sure when you go back to the original Isle of Lesbos, that's what they looked like.
	No.
	They're all sitting down, sucking down Marlboros and wearing painter's pants.
	Yeah, nobody's ever looked up in, you know, the naughty sites of real lesbians.
	We get in trouble for that, aren't we?
	No, you're not gonna get in trouble for that!
	It's like, let me see a essentially heterosexual site.
	And of course, he's gotten in a lot of trouble for, again, the LGBTQ, the Alphabet Community, as he calls them.
	I guess they didn't take kindly to his sorry not sorry apology, but he made a point wrapped in a joke saying that empathy is not gay, empathy is not black, empathy is bisexual, it must go both ways.
	That's nice.
	That was good!
	And he's saying that the whole thing with punching down he's like well sometimes you do punch down in comedy you punch up and everything but he's talking about how he's jealous of the LGBTQ community because like you guys have made these enormous strides in this short amount of time he's like I couldn't help just think that if Martin Luther King was like now just put on some booty shorts and rub yourself with baby oil and get up on a float he's like we could have It's like if they just had some booty shorts back then we could have ended slavery a hundred years earlier.
	And he's just making the point of like how there's this massive progress in this community in such a short amount of time.
	Yeah.
	And of course, yeah, he's being attacked for it and it's like, can we just leave jokes at jokes at some point?
	Like, not everything's going to be to your taste.
	It's not going to be punching up, punching down.
	Stop!
	I think Dennis Miller said once, he said, like, nothing is off limits in comedy except the helpless.
	So in other words, if you take an aim at, let's say, like a Down Syndrome baby, that's not going to go over well.
	No, it's not quite.
	For the same reason people are mad that, you know, the institute under Fauci, you know, killed dozens of puppies.
	People are like, ahhh!
	Ah, you know, we're not big fans.
	It's off-putting.
	That being said, I certainly wouldn't say that the LGBTQ community is helpless at this point.
	It's like Super Mario on the flower.
	There's nothing you can do to star.
	They're just completely invincible.
	You're not allowed to criticize them whatsoever.
	This is not a community right now where they're acting as though people insult them consequence-free.
	And he had a story, I remember, Dave Chappelle, it was back when he was, he kind of wasn't really doing stand-up, but talking about, you know, his specials, and it almost kind of got sort of Lenny Bruce-ish.
	And he talked about a guy playing this card game when he was a kid on the street to find the red card.
	Oh, yeah, yeah.
	Three-card Monty.
	Three-card Monty, that's it.
	He said he noticed the red card was bent, and so he thought, okay, I'm going to be able to get this guy.
	He only had $60 to his name.
	He said, Put me down for $60.
	That is the card.
	And it wasn't the right card.
	And he realized that everybody else in the street was in on this game.
	They were all being tricked, right?
	It was a double-cross.
	And he started bitching about it, like, the game is rigged!
	You know, he was talking about it, he was screaming about it.
	And the guy got up, grabbed him.
	Dave Chappelle tells the story.
	You can find it on YouTube.
	grabbed him, was about to maul him, and saw the fear in his eyes and he said he felt his
	kind of glaze, his stare glaze over and turn soft and he said never get between a man and
	his meal.
	And he made the point, he said, because to remove a man's ability to provide his effect,
	his livelihood is to remove his, it's the same as killing him.
	And that is something that I've talked about.
	He understands that, and that's why this guy, especially as someone who has had his livelihood removed from higher-ups, progressives at Viacom and Comedy Central, people who tell you that we need more diversity hiring, who told him at HBO, why do we need you, right?
	They see people, whether you're a minority or not, whether you're LGBTQ or not, as useful tools for them.
	Of which they'll dispose.
	He said he had his livelihood removed, and it is the same as killing someone.
	That's what modern cancel culture is.
	If you remove someone's ability to make a living, that's a serious problem, especially for something that is absolutely not only under protective speech, at least in this country, it's not in Canada, it's not in Australia, but certainly defensible under the guise of comedy.
	And I think you're going to see more of this from Dave Chappelle.
	I get it.
	I get that Dave Chappelle went after Candace Owens.
	I get that Dave Chappelle was honoring St.
	George Floyd.
	And I get that he's not right about everything.
	It doesn't matter.
	The fact is, if you let the mob come for this guy, they will come for you.
	Right.
	And we've talked about comedy being kind of the last bastion of free speech, like the last hope to maintain free speech and the role that comics play in the society.
	And if you think that that's just being a little bit kind of exaggerating, being a little over the top, just look at what they're doing with the vaccine mandates now about taking people's ability to make money away.
	Right.
	You have to have this vaccine, or you no longer have a job.
	What do you think that's going to do to thousands—not tens, twenties, hundreds of comics that can't say this stuff—but thousands and thousands and thousands of people who can no longer make a living for their family?
	People don't understand this when they say, well, really, what's your line on this end?
	Really, is it a vaccine mandate where you can't work?
	Or really, it's where someone says that you can't tell an offensive joke?
	Just so you understand, we are talking about, with a vaccine mandate, removing someone's ability to work, to provide for their family.
	We are talking about when you demand a special be removed and you call up every club, and this happens all the time, and you say, hey, don't book this person.
	You are removing their ability to make a living for their family.
	Do you understand that as far as every war waged, ever, up until maybe the 19th century, that was enough?
	Do you realize people just fought for land so that they could actually work really hard and till the soil, and hopefully, if they became a sedentary agrarian society, provide enough to get their family through the renter, and they would kill you if you stood between them and their turnip crops?
	Do you understand that taking away someone's livelihood was enough to go to war?
	That's why people warred, and we're so far removed from it because we live in this life of convenience that we go, oh, well, you know what?
	If we just take away his ability to provide for his family, it's not like we're not killing him.
	No, it's enough.
	Yeah.
	Well, and in this story, too, he tells it tells a story about a transgender friend of his that commits suicide.
	And it's not to ruin the special for anything, but it gets a little heavy, obviously.
	But when you look at that, it also shows that everybody is an individual.
	Just because you feel strongly about something or you don't like anything or you don't like what somebody says, that person was a huge fan of his comedy, regardless of what he said.
	People don't have to fit into a box of what they're told to be, and that's the problem now.
	Everybody thinks they have to fit into this certain area and be angry at these other things.
	You don't.
	Be an individual.
	Calling a place and trying to get somebody- like, I don't call everywhere Kathy Griffin works and go, look, I just think she's terrible and no one should see it.
	Like, there's no- you have every right to.
	Sir, you're the 140th call today.
	Sir, I've been telling the manager all day.
	But it's just, you have no right to take that away from people in this country.
	And it's just getting exhausting as a comic, because if you write comedy around the idea that you're not going to offend somebody, you're not writing comedy.
	Well, you end up writing The Daily Show with Trevor Noah.
	Yeah, that's true.
	Or Stephen Colbert.
	Dancing with, no, it's Dancing with Vaccine Needles.
	That's hilarious.
	Oh, I understand it.
	Do you think we could maybe do something about Big Pharma?
	No, no, no, no.
	They're our sponsors.
	It's your Pfizer suit.
	You guys brought Pfizer suits?
	I brought my Moderna.
	We're supposed to have a meeting about this.
	You have to let me know.
	That's just a black janitor in a Johnson & Johnson suit.
	Leans in off camera.
	It's just like, where do you guys get the good stuff?
	Yeah, where'd you get that?
	Oh, I see the irony.
	I just wear this every day.
	I'm a fan.
	You tried the baby oil?
	My name's just Johnson and Johnson.
	Rashida Tlaib.
	Let's rewind to this.
	Rashida Tlaib, by the way.
	And the point here is not the hypocrisy, like I've said in the past.
	Hey, look, no coverage of the mass shooting.
	We're going to get to that in a little bit.
	This is not the hypocrisy.
	It's that.
	Watch these clips.
	You know Rashida Tlaib, who was out there fear-mongering about COVID, and certainly, if you look at Michigan and the governor and the shutdowns, where you weren't allowed to go to a nursery.
	You know, plants.
	It's always confusing when you use the same term.
	Like, what are you talking about?
	You talking about the place where I entrust complete strangers with my infant offspring?
	Or that section in Lowe's that I never go to?
	The one place I don't want to go to, or the one place I have to stay 100 feet away from.
	Yes, exactly.
	For crying out loud, the aboriginals have 50 words for snow.
	You can't give us something else for nursery?
	I speak English!
	People who say every snowflake is different is a liar.
	It's impossible.
	Go on.
	It's ridiculous.
	They're all different.
	Look how many there are.
	You don't know that.
	Have you seen every single snowflake ever?
	There's no proof.
	Why don't you take those videos off YouTube?
	That's a good point, and we will review the information.
	Thanks, lady at Twitter whose name sounds like vagina.
	I can't remember her name.
	I'm horrible with names, I just remember it sounds like, I don't know.
	Dolores!
	Yeah, it's Mulva.
	Okay, so Rashida Tlaib explained on camera The only reason as to why she actually wears a mask is she doesn't usually wear a mask.
	She takes it off until she thinks the camera's on.
	Here you go.
	Did she say Cracker or Tracker?
	I heard Cracker.
	I heard Cracker.
	You heard what she wanted to.
	What do you think?
	She said Tracker or Cracker?
	Tracker.
	What does that even mean?
	Is there a Republican following her stumps going like...
	She was here recently.
	I don't know, you're not really tracking somebody if you're standing three feet from them.
	You've found them.
	You're not having to track them down anymore.
	I think she said dead honky.
	That being said, Republican tracker, in case you're, it's not really hard, just stuff some, toss some baba ghanoush in a bear trap.
	You'll be just overflowing with Rashida Tlaib.
	It's a trap!
	She got me without a mask.
	She's running through like, ah, hold on, I need to go back and have a meeting with the squad.
	Palm Palace!
	ow!
	shake their hands that's an actual restaurant that was renamed after they
	were funneling money to Hezbollah Oh yeah, that was La Chiche.
	Yeah, yeah.
	Where they were like, turns out they're terrorists, and I'm like, well, I still enjoy the chicken and rice.
	But it's so tasty.
	I'd eat my own hand if it was covered in that garlic sauce.
	Who cares if they blow up a 747 and it got good chicken?
	They're not sending that much money back.
	No, not enough to kill a couple people.
	They're choosing themselves.
	It's suicide-bombing good.
	That's not a good tagline.
	Well, they need to work on it.
	Welcome to Lachiche, suicide-bombing good.
	Today our specials.
	We'll polish that up.
	Our chicken slathered in our 52 virgins and spices.
	I can imagine what they do to the food there.
	I'm still eating it.
	It's delicious.
	By the way, this is something, so it's not that she's a hypocrite.
	She's clearly not afraid, just like Nancy Pelosi, just like Governor Whitmer.
	That's the point that matters here.
	Anyone out there who is more terrified than Rashida Tlaib and Nancy Pelosi and Gavin Newsom and Governor Whitmer and every single Democrat who tells you to be afraid is an idiot.
	You're a stupid person.
	That's the point here, especially because this member of The Squad has a long history of this.
	Remember a couple months ago, I believe, we have the clip.
	She was caught dancing at a wedding, doing a very Xenophobic warrior princess, uh, calling sound.
	Here you go.
	Super spreader.
	He's spraying out that vapor.
	Can you please just shut up?
	Can you stop?
	That's pretty good.
	I don't like that noise.
	No, nobody likes that noise.
	Well, that was in early August.
	That's when we were seeing the spikes all over the country.
	I mean, that was so reckless.
	Yeah.
	Yeah.
	I can't, I mean, I can't believe that.
	Okay, I see what you're doing there.
	Yeah.
	Opposite day.
	But yeah, that was, that was, you're right.
	That was in Wayne County was a COVID orange zone.
	I lived there.
	At that time.
	Yeah.
	That's insane.
	Went for Biden.
	Even though it was called for Trump Live while we were on the election stream from all local outlets.
	I'm not saying we did.
	I'm saying remember all the local stations.
	Yeah.
	Or at least a good amount of them.
	You were covering it too in Detroit.
	Oh yeah, Wayne County for Trump.
	Makes sense.
	Oh yeah, I was covering it that night.
	Well they called it.
	CNN called it.
	I mean so many places called it.
	And then afterwards they say, well, the mail-in ballots, and you're like, well, come on, you're an entire news agency, you already were saying in the lead-up, you know, the mail-in ballots obviously, but then you said, uh, there's no, the mail-in ballots won't make up for this gap.
	Right.
	And then like, well, call it for, point is, we don't know anything.
	Yeah, the point is I think it's all legit.
	Safest election.
	Most secure election in history.
	All those Democrats were wrong in 2017.
	They were wrong about the election security stuff.
	I think it's just important to say.
	I think that all future elections should transport the ballots in real red wagons and Coleman coolers.
	It's very simple, I think it's very simple.
	Oh no wait, sorry, remember they said that, remember when we were live, Cordoblaker and Gerald were like, what's in the Coleman coolers?
	And the excuse afterwards was like, it's camera equipment.
	Like, hey, we travel with tens of thousands of dollars in camera equipment every week.
	Have we ever once put it in a Coleman cooler?
	No, we usually put water in there.
	Have I ever once said, rolling pelican, get that the hell out of here.
	Can we get one of those flyer wagons?
	That seems safer.
	I just bought a Canon camera.
	Is there a way I can get some hot ice, dry ice?
	I'd like to rattle around when I transport it.
	Can I get the worst thing as possible to break the lens?
	Yeah, I'd really just like to put my $9,000 lens and a handkerchief at the end of a stick and walk the railway tracks.
	Can we do that?
	It's common practice!
	I'm having beans.
	Don't forget, by the way, while we're talking about the squad, AOC took her mask off.
	She put it back on for a picture and then took it off right after.
	So again, this is the squad, the people who talk about how we need the lockdowns and of course people should have a more significant social safety net so that the lockdowns aren't... It's all self-perpetuating and she's not afraid.
	She doesn't believe what she says.
	She's uh, going to do a hit.
	She's uh, going to do a hit.
	Okay!
	Woo!
	Applause So this is where we
	fly masks.
	Laughter Laughter
	One minute later.
	She should have kept it on to cover that rake.
	I feel like Sideshow Bob's Bob's gonna step on it.
	By the way, one thing that I noticed is right early on in that video, if you freeze frame it, that looks like the triggered lesbian meme.
	Look at that!
	Look at that!
	Is the transition complete?
	Maybe.
	A little goatee there.
	I hate her face.
	Someone needs to study that in the Galapagos.
	I'm not sure that I believe half of America have bought into this at this point.
	I don't know if it's just keeping up with Pitterinton's love.
	I have no idea at this point.
	Are people genuinely terrified?
	Do you believe that, here's the thing, I don't believe that they believe it.
	Right, no.
	I'm not sure that I believe half of America have bought into this at this point.
	I don't know if it's just keeping up with Pitter and Sons love.
	I have no idea at this point.
	Are people genuinely terri- are most 30, 20 year old American males, females genuinely
	terrified for their life right now?
	Were you guys ever?
	I mean, we, for two weeks, we said, like, okay, we'll be careful, and we, at that point when they were saying you shouldn't wear masks, we said, actually, if you're sick, here's how you can make your own mask if you have to go to a place of work.
	Then we just said, oh, they're gonna keep us locked down, we're gonna do an entire month, and we did two-a-days.
	We were never afraid of this.
	Not only you should live your life in fear, and certainly not for something like this, you should be prudent, Whatever, whatever I have to say here.
	But I just don't know anymore if I buy that these people are terrified.
	I don't think so either.
	I mean, you can look at people's actions to determine, you know, really what they believe.
	And honestly, if we see them doing this behind the scenes, and they're like, oh, it's because of Republicans.
	Oh, it's because of a picture.
	Oh, it's because we're on camera right now.
	It's like, okay, I mean, really, really, you want me to believe that this is a problem?
	Nancy Pelosi going for a blowout, come down to Chinatown saying all that stuff.
	You really want me to think that this is something that you are deathly afraid of?
	Oh, and by the way, something that we are going to get to here later today, the COVID vaccine, some new data that's come out.
	And of course, I don't know if you know this, but Vermont is seeing its worst surge ever.
	Really?
	Ever!
	Of fish fans?
	Yes, yes.
	Also, they have the annual Juggalo meeting.
	I don't even know how that works.
	That's the gathering.
	I think they're going to have the gathering.
	Do they have the gathering this year?
	I have no idea.
	Are they getting invaded by Canadians?
	How hilarious would that be if the Juggalos didn't have their... These are Insane Clown Posse, by the way.
	Oh, okay.
	If they didn't have their annual meetup because of COVID, that's what scared them off.
	It is what happened last year.
	No, no way.
	They did not do the gathering.
	I don't believe it.
	What?
	That's wrong.
	We're getting off the beaten path.
	I don't think so, we're talking about Jekyll.
	I almost just shat myself because I thought that I saw Maggie Gyllenhaal out of the corner of my eye in the monitor.
	Thank God it's just an Allegra commercial.
	Off-putting woman.
	Like I told you, every time we've been in a theater and she appears on screen, my dad makes an audible, ugh.
	And then after the third or fourth close-up, people in the theater start catching on, hey, hey, hey!
	Sexist!
	She always has this face.
	Like she's thinking about how much prettier her brother is.
	It must be tough.
	This script smells like shit, so that's a yes.
	I'll say yes.
	I'll do that.
	People have been asking me to cover the debt ceiling.
	I don't want to have to, but former Vice President Joe Biden made this comment yesterday, and I think that we can sum this up in really two phrases.
	I don't think we really need to argue about the state of our country or direction we're going.
	So take it from him.
	Raising the debt limit is paying our old debts.
	There's nothing to do with new spending or what may be coming this year or other years.
	There's nothing to do with my plans on infrastructure or building back better, both of which are paid for, but they're not even in the queue right now.
	Come again, stupid?
	Look.
	It's paid for!
	Just like we were talking about this yesterday, we provide all of our references at louderwithcrowder.com.
	You guys can hit the link in the description.
	We try to be as transparent as possible, but yesterday was good.
	Do I need to really argue?
	Is anyone going to argue with me that Donald Trump was tougher on China than Joe Biden?
	If we're going to talk about common ground, there have to be some basic facts here.
	Does anybody actually believe that increasing our debt limits so we can borrow money to pay previous debts as we incur new debts have nothing to do with each other?
	Do you honestly believe that paying off your previous credit card statement that you can't afford in no way affects your upcoming credit card statement?
	I'm sorry to be reductive, but what the shit?
	You're paying off your credit card with a higher interest credit card.
	It's insanity.
	You can keep doing that forever because eventually you'll get the 0% financing you've been waiting for.
	Oh, I got some points back.
	It's just saying, we're going to acquire more debt and that way we'll have less debt.
	Well, that's not positive.
	We're trying to get to the 1930s.
	If Republicans don't raise the debt ceiling, we'll have our credit rating downgraded.
	Like, oh, why does that matter?
	We won't be able to incur more debt!
	Who has worse credit in this country than our government?
	We're trying out loud.
	We're one step from the Fed being Western Unions.
	The most offensive thing about that is it was shot on a set and they didn't even take the time to make the window shot seasonally correct.
	Doesn't that look amazing?
	That looks like spring with all the flowers behind them.
	Just somebody put dead stuff on it.
	Why isn't he in the Oval Office?
	Is it just too many sharp corners?
	He doesn't know the difference.
	They have Nerf corners.
	President Kamala is in the Oval Office.
	Thank you very much.
	She's just decorating it for herself.
	He's been banished.
	Nerf corners and they have a mesh net six feet around the fireplace.
	First aid kit every three feet.
	What is a five-year-old in here?
	No, it's the president.
	Much worse than a five-year-old.
	Look, I don't know if you want- what else do you want me to say?
	We are so far gone where trillions is a rounding error, and we're acting like it has nothing to do with our ability to spend ourselves into oblivion.
	It's absurd at this point.
	It really is.
	Okay.
	Moving on to this, of course, you know, the last James Bond film.
	Yeah, Jimmy Bond.
	Yes!
	Released, I believe, today.
	Jim.
	And I think we have, like, a shortened teaser for people who don't know, and then, of course, there's a story now demanding a female James Bond, but here we go.
	Name? Bond.
	James Bond.
	So you're not dead.
	Hello Q, I missed you.
	James?
	You don't know what this is?
	You ever flown one of these?
	Nope.
	Oh, he's going with a female pilot?
	Too late.
	Uh, that's a POC.
	Oh, I'm sorry.
	It's a POC.
	I hope she has the stretchy maternity suit.
	That's 007.
	Do you know that?
	That's 007.
	I don't care.
	It is.
	Lashana Lynch.
	And of course now there's been this demand.
	Look, I don't care if James Bond is black or white.
	I mean, we've talked about this.
	There are plenty.
	There's no shortage of black action heroes.
	I mean, black action stars, you have people like Will Smith, Denzel Washington, not to mention characters like Shefflick.
	This is not something where there has not been equal representation, so I think that James Bond should probably be true to the origins, but it's not really a big deal, but there is a demand and outrage that they make James Bond a female character, which of course would never work, for reasons that are obvious, which I won't get into today because I've already covered it, and I want to maintain what small piece of my soul I have left.
	But we actually do have titles now that have been suggested that have been floating around the studio for the next James Bond installment.
	Should it be a female James Bond?
	which brings us to this week's 7 Plus 1.
	You forgot Stefan in the chamber!
	This is 7 Plus 1.
	Female James Bond titles.
	Okay.
	Yeah, and you guys can play along with us in the chat.
	We'll be taking your chat a little bit later at Mug Club.
	Number seven female James Bond titles from William Sonoma with Love.
	Yeah, people are looking forward to that one.
	I think it's a good name.
	She's gonna have some nice tri-clad pots.
	Place you never want to go again.
	I don't even know what it is, and I hope I never find out.
	Female James Bond titles.
	Number six, you only knit twice.
	Well, that seems a little tone deaf.
	But if it's a hobby, I mean, yeah.
	Vagina hats for the parade.
	Yeah, yeah.
	I'm going to give you number five, and I want Dave to take the next two.
	But number five, female James Bond titles.
	The spy who never called me back.
	James Bond is always complaining.
	He is always on the road.
	She.
	She never calls.
	Well, I mean, currently.
	No, she's complaining he doesn't call.
	Well, now she will.
	The whole mission is screwed.
	Yeah.
	Yeah, it's done.
	The mission is fecoccted.
	Female James Bond titles.
	Dave, number four.
	Never say that dress makes me look fat again.
	Yeah, you're taking your life in your hands with that.
	You certainly are.
	It's dangerous.
	It's going to be a slaughter.
	Female James Bond titles.
	Number three.
	License to bake.
	Ooh, license to bake.
	Well, look, it doesn't mean that James Bond James Bond can't be multifaceted.
	It doesn't mean that she doesn't have a license to kill.
	No, no.
	She just also makes scrumptious cookies.
	Two things can be true.
	Exactly.
	Or killer cookies.
	How do you think she seduces the evil mail agents?
	High on a windowsill.
	Yes.
	That's right.
	Or, and another reason some argue that female James Bond wouldn't work, as opposed to the dance of seduction that's required for a male to make himself attractive to a female mate, which is really sort of the back and forth, the tangle of love, the female James Bond would just need to show her tits briefly and then of course get all the information she needs.
	So it's a little bit Tougher.
	It's true.
	It would be a pretty short movie.
	It would be a pretty short movie.
	I won't give you the codes.
	It would just be like, oh.
	I won't give you the codes.
	It would just be a slurping sound and then credits.
	And then credits.
	Just be, just be her coming up throwing her sweaty hair back going, uh, he's in, uh, he's in the, he's in the bunker.
	There he is over there.
	May I have your gun?
	Yeah.
	Oh yeah, take it.
	I'm not even in the mood.
	7 Plus 1, female James Bond titles.
	Number 2, Her Majesty's Secret Cervix.
	Well that's actually, that was a high school.
	Watchable.
	And the number 1 female James Bond title, Dr. No, means no.
	I said it!
	I said it several times, and of course the plus one is just a working title.
	from Russia with HPV. This has been This Week 7 Plus 1.
	1.
	I was gonna say, can only women get HPV?
	No.
	No, no, men can get it if they marry Catherine Zeta-Jones.
	Man, can we get it.
	Riddled with it, Dave.
	How many times?
	No, yeah, Catherine Zeta-Jones, apparently, cigars, whiskey, and pleasing Catherine Zeta-Jones.
	Yeah, right, yeah.
	It's anyone's guess.
	What a great diagnosis, though.
	It's from your wife's... Also, no one finds stuff out like a woman, though.
	We are very sneaky, so... Sneaky, sneaky.
	Well, that's a negative stereotype.
	Coming from a woman, women are sneaky, which implies dishonest.
	It's better than saying they all have HPV.
	Well, I don't say they all have HPV, just this spy.
	Is she not allowed to confess?
	Promiscuous spy!
	Not in California.
	Thanks for discouraging people from sharing.
	Well, women can keep a secret.
	There's a stigma.
	You can keep an HPV secret if you're a woman.
	If you're a guy, you kind of got to explain yourself, I would assume.
	You would think so.
	Yeah.
	Because they're like, what's that?
	You can't be like, I don't know, let's just find out later.
	I have no idea.
	I like to live dangerously.
	No, it's gross!
	No, it's just looks like cauliflower.
	Yeah, it's disgusting.
	I'd like you to leave.
	Oh, by the way, what am I?
	Are we telling people to subscribe to the podcast?
	Audio podcast?
	Or what are we saying today?
	All of the I was I have no idea.
	All right.
	Well, listen, it's a live show Monday through Thursday.
	So you can tune in at 10 a.m.
	Eastern.
	That's the best way.
	You can hit the notification bell because subscriptions don't really mean a whole lot.
	That's the best way to tune in.
	We're going to do another hour of show on the Mug Club.
	And what's the other thing I was going to say to people?
	Oh, smash that like button if you can.
	Anyone watching live right now, just hit the like button.
	Like that.
	Just hit the like button.
	You don't have to do it, though.
	We're not going to force you.
	It's not going to be a mandate.
	We're not going to show up at your door and say, like the button.
	Love it.
	Also, by the way, I can understand if you're like button hesitant, because that like button...
	It was created using dead fetal tissue.
	I didn't want to be a downer, but my point is I really wish YouTube would stop doing- and there's no need, like, why do you even need fetal tissue for a like button?
	It's on a screen.
	It almost seems, yeah, unnecessary.
	It's really like, you know, it's like a 50-50 chance that you'll get it.
	Yeah.
	Who knows?
	Because there's a dislike.
	Yeah, there is a dislike.
	If we were Joe Biden, former Vice President Joe Biden, giving a speech, there'd be like a 90-10 chance we'd get a dislike.
	And then YouTube disables it.
	Or reverses it.
	Thankfully.
	He's so popular.
	He is the most popular president ever.
	Most votes ever!
	So, Vermont right now, for people who don't know, you know, this is something that's interesting.
	When people talk about the vaccine, people talk about how effectively it's working.
	There are several different things you have to look at, okay?
	You have to look at, okay, the vaccine, the studies in the vaccine itself, right?
	The efficacy ratings, okay?
	What do you have?
	We've talked about these from Mayo Clinic, and we have some studies here that have come from Israel quite recently.
	But you also have to look at the numbers at large.
	Now, Vermont, the most vaccinated state in the United States.
	Also important to note, Vermont, a very rural state.
	They don't have incredible population density.
	69% of them are vaccinated.
	So they're basically at the number that people talked about with herd immunity.
	They now have the highest caseload on record in the state.
	Oh.
	Right now.
	Doesn't seem to mesh.
	70% vaccinated, low population density, more cases right now in a rolling average in Vermont than ever!
	Hmm.
	So we'll get to the point where we're talking about the vaccines and how long the immunity lasts.
	Isn't that, doesn't that raise some eyebrows?
	But this isn't the first time we've seen this.
	Like you said, with Israel and then we had some information that the misspeak, apparently misspeak, out of Australia, even though he was quoting an article that was written.
	I mean, both must have gotten it wrong.
	I have no idea what really happened there.
	You don't have to think about it.
	Well, I try not to.
	And by the way, this is local Vermont news right here.
	Almost, I believe almost, I think it's like 95%, every county has been labeled high transmission in Vermont by the CDC.
	And this is something, look, the reason that this matters is because to this day, still, the CDC blame, and former Vice President Joe Biden, blame the unvaccinated.
	There is a clear message that is coming through.
	This is becoming a pandemic of the unvaccinated.
	It just confirms that this really is a pandemic.
	Oh, right now on CNN, we'll bring it up later.
	The latest data confirms that we're still in a pandemic of the unvaccinated.
	Ah, we just missed it.
	Right there on CNN, they were saying that they were authorizing, Pfizer is authorizing vaccines for I think under 11 years old.
	They're seeking approval from the FDA.
	I actually have a note from our team, they brought that in as well.
	Seeking approval from the FDA for kids age 5 to 11 to get the vaccine.
	And if you live in California, that means it's mandatory.
	As soon as it happens for your kid to go to school, mandatory because of your governor.
	Look behind you, there was your line in the sand.
	This is something else, too.
	When we're talking about Vermont, even CNN, and we've talked about this with the vaccines, and we've talked about the Mayo studies, CNN, I was just reading this, I believe yesterday, or the day before, had to acknowledge, I'm going to read the quotes from CNN, okay?
	From CNN, which they are quoting qualified scientists, the Israeli study, and I believe some medical journals.
	So this is something where if I had said it, BAM!
	Gone.
	Everyone here understand?
	I am quoting CNN.
	The paper being quoted is CNN.
	With CNN being the paper quoted...
	Well, the New England Journal of Medicine should give you some cover as well.
	They're a little-known publication.
	Right, but the point is, if CNN is starting to acknowledge it, it must be really bad.
	So, they acknowledge the waning protection of the vaccine.
	These are direct quotes.
	The waning appears to accelerate after the fourth month to reach a low level of approximately 20% in subsequent months.
	CNN quoting the New England Journal of Medicine, still quoting.
	These findings suggest that a large proportion of the vaccinated population could lose its protection against infection in the coming months, perhaps increasing the potential for new epidemic waves.
	If you, hold on a second, how, how, I don't, In other words, it's like, yeah, well, you have the vaccine to reduce any surges and to reduce any new epidemic waves and to immunize you, you know, against the virus.
	Okay, so that's what we're doing it for.
	Well, yeah, except for the fact that if you take the vaccine, your protection will go down to 20% and that'll lead to more surges of the virus.
	I don't... I can't...
	How long does it take?
	Is it several decades for that to happen?
	Oh, no, no, no, no. Yeah, a couple, a few months. A few, yeah, a few months. Like today's Tuesday. We're talking
	Friday, right?
	Hey, hey, CNN, I got a question. Real fast. How long does natural immunity last? It's a good question.
	I can't answer that. Why? Because you're a stranger. Is it longer than four months? That's all I want to know.
	By the way, so here's the CNN is back to the story.
	I don't know if you wanted to pull them up at all and see if, see what they're saying about the 5 to 11 stuff.
	Oh, let's see what they're saying about authorizing children. Hey look Sanjay Gupta got rid of his asshole
	haircut.
	I'm just gonna say I assume this... Wait, is that Sanjay... That's not Sanjay Gupta, that's Dr. uh... Is it?
	That's Sanjay Gupta.
	Oh, I always... That's the goop!
	King Goopa!
	The FDA sort of weighs in on this and says, we're authorizing it.
	Because they've just heard from the company so far.
	And it's for emergency use.
	Not normal authorization.
	I think the fundamental concern is, I think my kid's fine.
	I don't think my kid's going to get sick.
	Why do they need to get a vaccine?
	It's an argument that we hear over and over again.
	But I think particularly so with young kids.
	It's a good argument.
	And the pediatricians do need to make the point that it is rare for, obviously, young children to get sick.
	But it can happen.
	So stick them!
	It can happen, so stick them!
	Did you hear the inflection?
	Some parents have expressed concerns that their children are highly unlikely to be affected, and that's true, and they've also expressed concern from the New England Journal of Medicine that the protection wanes down to 20% after only a few months, and so I would say that I understand, but BREAK YOURSELF, BITCH!
	They just pull up at the school in an ice cream truck.
	Man.
	I love how they just say rare.
	I'm not going to say numbers here because I know that that could get us in trouble.
	Oh, about the breakthrough cases?
	No, the number of kids under 17 who have died from COVID.
	No, the breakthrough cases.
	Very, very rare, Dave.
	Very, very rare.
	Very rare.
	Just rare, though.
	Just rare.
	And we have a pandemic.
	Rare doesn't mean never.
	No.
	It means you have 20% protection.
	They're saying we want to authorize it.
	No, first off, let me make sure I have this about right.
	So we have a virus, disease, with a death rate, a mortality rate, which I'm not allowed to quote because Big Tech will be furious.
	But we can say, because CNN was allowed to say it, that the hospitalization rate, including everybody, even 90-year-olds, when you include that entire pool, is 2% or less.
	So we have a virus like that that has allowed us to obviously, an emergency authorization of a vaccine that had
	not been approved despite being through several other trials beforehand, right, an
	mRNA vaccine. And of course, this emergency use authorization is only allowed to be used if
	there are no effective available treatments.
	Zero.
	And then we mandate it to people in the expectation, telling them that it will immunize them, and
	then switching that to the word, well, actually protects against, under the guise that it
	will reduce the surges in hospitals and prevent people from being infected.
	This is mandated.
	And now we are looking at the state with the highest vaccination rate, that has their highest caseload, when we have a significant portion of the United States vaccinated, we have more cases this August than last August, and the study says you're down to 20% after a few months!
	Do I have that right?
	Yes.
	Banned.
	And then people say, well your freedom, your freedom, well your freedom, what about my freedom to not die?
	First off, I'm not sure that you should exercise that freedom.
	It's your call.
	I think you should just exercise.
	Might I interest you in my shotgun tow triggers?
	It's just so stupid.
	Well, get the vaccine if you don't want to.
	That's fine.
	Those are great things.
	You don't want to die?
	I think you should vaccinate your children with vaccines that you think are trustworthy.
	I am very, very pro-vaccine.
	We all are.
	I think most people are.
	I think saying, look, it's very, very, very rare, so let's do this.
	The doctor has never, ever said that.
	Think about that.
	Nobody's like, oh, there's like no chance, let's do the surgery.
	That's never happened.
	It's always like, don't worry about it, we'll cross that bridge.
	It's never, just up until now, Well, even here in this CNN article, they say, and one theory is that people who are vaccinated may be engaging in more social activity, which could be the reason that they make up such a high percentage.
	First off, if a vaccine works, that could not be less relevant.
	Have those words ever been written?
	Yeah.
	About the measles vaccine?
	Rubella?
	Polio?
	Have they ever been like, well, you know what, the reason that all the people from the measles vaccines, that category, the reason that they make up 90% of those with current measles is because, well, you know what, they're going out in social situations.
	Of course they wouldn't!
	This is the only time that that's taken into account!
	It doesn't make any sense to me, too, and the argument of the vaccines that you guys just made, basically.
	It's like, oh, you don't question your kids having to be vaccinated to go to school.
	Why would you question this?
	And I'm like, I don't know.
	I mean, I would say it, but maybe just pull up the numbers.
	Yeah.
	Maybe pull up the numbers for this stuff.
	I mean, I can't say these things right now.
	Also, that other vaccine was around while Doc Holiday was still alive.
	Right.
	That's when a doctor was like, you should smoke less.
	Yeah.
	Here's some cocaine.
	That's about it.
	Yeah, exactly.
	Here's some heroin for that cough.
	Yes, exactly.
	It's made by bears!
	Yeah, don't worry.
	So you know you can trust them.
	Whoever has the patent on this is a rich man.
	Listen, I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that I am for vaccinating kids against things that will kill kids.
	Yeah.
	I'm not gonna say anything else because I can't and I'd get you in trouble.
	No, you absolutely would.
	I think kids should get the flu shot.
	The standard flu shot.
	I'm not going to make no comment.
	Look, we had something, I couldn't record the voiceover for today because it ended up getting really complicated, but I spoke with people on the street this last week and people who supported the mask mandate said well this is because it's really dangerous for children.
	Look, we've talked about the numbers, how deadly the flu, the normal flu is for children.
	It's like 0.85% in the last two seasons from the CDC.
	That's almost 1%, the standard flu.
	So when I spoke with people, I said, well, do you support mask mandates every flu season?
	They said, why?
	And I said, well, because the flu is actually surprisingly lethal.
	And I won't say it now because I don't have the numbers in front of me, but you can guess whether they are more or less lethal than other diseases by, oh, I don't know, a 10-time multiple.
	You can guess!
	And they said, hmm.
	Well, that's a good point.
	I hadn't thought of that.
	And then some of them said, well, I guess we need to mandate flu vaccines and masks every season.
	And some other people were actually thoughtful enough in saying, ah, you know what?
	Maybe we do need to actually look at our liberties and freedoms.
	And it's not a... One thing, too, with masks, it's not only a net positive.
	There's nothing in this world that you do that doesn't have any type of unintended or potentially negative consequence.
	Yeah.
	And breathing, even if it just means improper use.
	Breathing through the panties that you stuffed in a glove compartment and double-sided taped around your face.
	is not necessarily going to be protecting you the way that you think.
	A fresh N95 mask in a controlled environment where no one is arguing with the science that they are entirely appropriate.
	Worn properly.
	Let me ask you this.
	People out there who wear cotton masks, or who wear whatever it is, moisture wicking masks, I don't know.
	I wear moist cotton.
	You wear moist cotton.
	Wet masks don't break!
	How many of you washed it on a sanitary heat cycle every single time?
	No.
	Honestly, when people talk about masks, how many of you wear a new mask every single time or wash it on an equivalent to a commercial sanitary heat cycle every single time?
	We have the finest liquids.
	I use gas station bathrooms and public drinking fountains.
	I give them a little bath.
	And then you are protected.
	And then I'm safe.
	Clean as a whistle!
	I thought it was like, you know, getting stung by one of those things in the ocean.
	You just pee on it.
	It's better?
	No?
	Yes.
	Urinate on your mask.
	That's what George Michael said.
	That's how he set them up.
	He put a jellyfish in the port-a-pie.
	Like, what's that, a jellyfish?
	Oh my god, let me fix it!
	What is this, an R. Kelly mask?
	So, okay.
	Let's move on to this before we leave.
	The Arlington shooting yesterday that happened.
	No coverage, by the way.
	Yeah.
	ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, no coverage at all today.
	Thank God nobody died.
	Police arrested Timothy George Simpkins for the high school shooting.
	He wounded four.
	Ah, okay.
	We're wondering why this hasn't been covered.
	And there were people who said this is the first ever black math school shooter.
	That's not true.
	We'll get to some numbers.
	And I will tell you what, I was surprised when I saw the mugshot.
	Why?
	Because I know the neighborhood.
	And the truth is this kind of stuff happens, or something equivalent, in the south side of Chicago.
	South Side of Chicago.
	Days go by.
	Leroy Brown.
	Massive school shooter.
	All the time, and in Detroit, all the time, just not covered.
	The reason the media rushed here with cameras was because they thought, oh, suburban area, school shooting, of course we're going to, before the bodies are even warm, run with a narrative.
	Now, I want to be clear, there's some information out there that we don't know.
	Right.
	Yeah.
	Okay?
	Now, the reason we're talking about it is because the media misreported this yesterday as though they did know.
	Some legitimate outlets reported that there were deaths.
	Some outlets reported falsely on videos that had been circulating.
	And I want to say that we don't have all of the information here, but I'm going to make some inferences, in which I'm not entirely confident, as an exercise in just reading about what the media is not telling you.
	So it'll happen in real time.
	Here's the first thing.
	It's Simpkins family, the kid who shot up the school.
	His family blamed, rather than apologize, it was surprising how they did not apologize when you watch this entire clip.
	They blamed bullying.
	Well, one does.
	He was scared.
	He was afraid.
	There's a video that's all out on social media and it shows that he was being attacked.
	It wasn't just one person that would attack him and bully him, taking his money.
	It takes us all.
	It takes us all to stand together about this bullying.
	It could have been a situation where he took the other turn and decided to commit suicide.
	That would have been way worse than shooting four people.
	We're not justifying that.
	That was not right.
	But he was trying to protect himself.
	It sounds to me like you just justified it.
	A little bit.
	He was trying to protect himself when he went back home, got a gun, came back in, cocked it, loaded it, went through the metal detectors, and shot four people.
	I mean, as a parent, though, I mean, I can understand her stance of defending her child instead of just jumping in and apologizing.
	Yeah, I can understand that.
	Do you think that would be afforded to white parents of Columbine or, you know, people like if they came out and said, ah, my son's right.
	You people are just overreacting.
	There's a couple books on Columbine including one of the mothers that I read and you know they did in some ways like a minister had a secret funeral for Dylan and Eric I think the other ones yeah, I can't remember I forgot their emails but I Know it's crazy.
	I'm like oh I You guys haven't responded since 99.
	What's going on?
	I got ghosted!
	Must be Y2K.
	How was that lunch special?
	I so I thought um I ruined this.
	Sue Klebold wrote a book about it where you do and there's actually a movie too which is from the uh the view of a school shooter's parents which is a really fascinating character study so it's like there is a lot of layers that can cause somebody this is somebody to behave like this I'm wondering what is truly the symptom of this or you know what's causing this?
	I said earlier I watched it and they seem like normal people They don't seem like they're like crazy ghetto people or anything.
	They seem like normal people.
	I guess we have a disagreement in the studio because I do not have a whole lot of sympathy for a guy who walks in and shoots four people.
	No, no, no.
	He's talking about the family.
	No, you're saying the parents are normal.
	The parents, yeah.
	I'm not saying I have sympathy.
	It's gotta be rough.
	It's gotta be a rough situation.
	Well, there's a difference between going to school- For them.
	I don't think for him.
	No, I'm referring specifically to the parents.
	Yes, that makes sense.
	Okay, I agree with that.
	And there's a difference between going to school with the intent to just shoot and kill as many people as possible and going back in.
	So it looks like he shot an adult, a student, another person was grazed with a bullet, and another person was being treated for a fall or something like that.
	Alright, so he's not a great shot.
	No, no, no.
	What I'm saying, though, is that there's a difference between that, like where maybe it looks like you're going after the person.
	You shouldn't do it either way.
	But that's different than walking in and just indiscriminately shooting up the entire school.
	So I definitely understand that this is not Columbine, right?
	No, but it is, though.
	That seems like he has a problem with four different people, and one of these things has no connection to the other.
	It's possible.
	I mean, their argument is he was bullied.
	I think the guy who had a collapsed lung is an adult, like a teacher, right?
	Right, so he was bullying him?
	What was he making him work on the railway tracks?
	What we have here is a failure to communicate!
	What do you think was going to happen?
	The point is, no, of course that's indiscriminate!
	Pregnant lady got hurt!
	A guy got a collapsed lungs and then people... Okay!
	I'm not saying it's good, I'm just saying it's not Columbine.
	She fell down trying to get out of the way.
	It's Columbine, only he's a worse shot, like Dave said.
	No, it's true.
	I agree, it is Columbine.
	I mean, this has been a huge problem.
	And it wasn't this giant... People talk about how it was this giant thing in black communities where, you know, I'm from the Detroit area.
	It wasn't like this.
	There was a lot of gang warfare, there was a drug... Well, I'll actually get to some stats that might surprise you.
	I would be surprised.
	Honestly, a lot of people are surprised, and that's because of the way the FBI presents a lot of their crime statistics.
	But I do think, though, it is part of the same thing.
	There's something that has happened in the last 22 years.
	I think what has happened is we have a media with a 24-hour news cycle.
	And let me just say one thing.
	That's something I'm incredibly grateful for with this show.
	Your parents, your parents, my parents, your grandparents, their grandparents, guess what?
	They had news three times a day, a half hour.
	That was it.
	You didn't need a 24-hour news cycle.
	And so guess what?
	We have the luxury of today where it's like, well, there's not a lot of news to fabricate.
	Let's do a 7 plus 1!
	Let's make sure it's informative, entertaining, we can have more conversations, we can play some games, because we are not beholden to selling fear.
	We are not beholden to making sure that you panic.
	The truth is, crime has been going down consistently until 2020.
	Wonder what was different about that?
	Which one of these is the anomaly?
	School shootings make up a very, very small percentage of mass shootings.
	Far more of them We're going to get to that in a second.
	And they're just not necessarily covered.
	This is something where a lot of people have a perception that something has really increased.
	Look, this is what happened.
	A column on this said, oh my gosh, these ratings are insane.
	We're going to continue covering mass shootings at any given point.
	They didn't used to cover that, even though they happened before.
	The same thing is, look, the reason that they're talking about Donald Trump still.
	When did they used to discuss an ex-president?
	Ad nauseum, at length.
	They didn't.
	They just realized that it was unbelievable for ratings, and CNN is where ratings go to die.
	And so it's like, cover Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump, cover mass shooting, mass shooting, mass shooting, a car chase.
	That's why the numbers don't reflect that.
	And here's something, again, I'm making an inference.
	They said that this kid was bullied.
	Okay.
	Really quickly, can we bring up the mugshot first?
	So, this is the mugshot.
	Now, The photo that was circulating was the APB picture.
	That's what you asked me about, Dave.
	And I said, hold on a second.
	Yes, the original.
	And there are a lot of websites that are still covering with the APB picture.
	Meaning there's, you know, All Points Bulletin, where they were saying, hey, let's try and get the shooter.
	They're still using that picture even though we have a mugshot now.
	I'm making an inference by the fact that the media is being a little bit tongue-tied, not saying that this kid was actively being bullied, or actually the one who was being beaten up in the video.
	If you look at the mugshot, and keep in mind, he's a senior, we can't show you the video because that's been removed from Facebook or YouTube, but I think we have some images from the fight in question here, and if you do go and watch it, It looks a lot like the guy in the mugshot, and the other guy clearly does not.
	The other guy who's getting beaten up is clearly lighter skinned, clearly doesn't have the same haircut, and look, anyone can change a shirt, but it matches.
	Yeah.
	Not only that, what else?
	It's obviously a senior beating up on a freshman or a junior.
	It's one much bigger male beating up on a smaller male.
	Beating the crap out of him, to be clear.
	It's not a fight.
	It's an absolute beatdown.
	So, I don't know that he's the one administering the beatdown, but because the media initially started covering it with that narrative and then they said, And now they're being quiet, and this has been circulating.
	If I were to bet my bottom dollar, I would say, looks like he's the one administering the beating.
	According to the New York Post, as of about four hours ago, they were saying that the shooting was a result of this fight.
	Right.
	The fight in that video.
	They didn't say it was a result of him being beaten up.
	No, no.
	They just said the result of this fight.
	Really?
	What happened in the fight?
	We don't have a research department.
	And the cousin on Facebook was basically defending him as well, saying, no, it was because of bullying and everything else, and I think posted that fight video as well, right?
	So there's a lot of it that says, yeah, that video is them, one way or the other.
	Right.
	And the point is this.
	The media doesn't want you to know why.
	This story, they're trying to memory hole this story!
	It was being covered.
	We were there yesterday.
	Remember, Dave?
	It was live.
	They were set and ready to have their next 24-hour coverage, and they were still covering it once he was in custody, right?
	Covering it, people shot, covering it incorrectly at some networks and news outlets that there had been casualties at that point.
	Covering it, covering it, covering it.
	Oh, he's in custody, and then more about Donald Trump and the big lie.
	Whoa, whoa, what happened?
	The debt ceiling, because people want to hear about that.
	That's the issue, is they want to memory hold us, and so we have to try and gather as much information as we can that, of course, mainstream outlets don't even want us to have.
	So if anyone out there actually has some more information as to whether that fight did happen that day, New York Times is saying that it did.
	New York Post.
	New York Post is saying that it did.
	I had to go to the second page of Google Research.
	You know the last time I clicked to go to the second page of a Google search?
	Well, you're looking for Hunter Biden's laptop.
	Ah, well that's true.
	Here's something else to keep in mind.
	Does anyone else disagree with this?
	Guy shot up the school.
	Shot four people at school, regardless of why.
	$75,000 bail.
	Kyle Rittenhouse, $2 million.
	Not to mention you had some people, I don't even know if there was any bail set for January 6th.
	Some people there was not.
	Some people there was not, and it's trespassing.
	It was such a giant public thing, and I think they were like, hey, let's stop the burning.
	I'm not calling it right-oriented.
	Kyle Rittenhouse shot a serial pedophile who repeatedly yelled the N-word and was actively trying to shoot him.
	And defended himself against somebody wielding a skateboard and a gun.
	Let's just use January 6th people, some of them set without bail.
	And you can see, I think Brandon Straka just got disorderly conduct.
	I think that's what he just got.
	He's the guy who created the walk-away movement, the gay movement.
	It wasn't even proven.
	First off, it was proven that he didn't even go in.
	And then they said, but it was him on camera.
	You could hear him off camera saying, hey, go in boys.
	That wasn't even proven.
	There were some people who claimed that it wasn't even Brandon Strzoka, and he just said, all right, you know what, I'll take the plea.
	It's a misdemeanor.
	Yeah.
	I mean, how long were these people, so you have a kid now with 70,000, probably will get out, but might be out this afternoon, and then you have people, the charges aren't even felonies, and they don't know when they're getting out, and there's no due process.
	Why doesn't the left care about a mass shooter at a school?
	Well, because, I mean, it doesn't fit that agenda.
	I would argue that's... And that's what it would come to, and I think that it's also... I also do think, on top of that though, that there is a difference between the gun violence that's occurred in low-income, extremely poor neighborhoods, and the ones that are now middle class and above.
	Yeah.
	It's stranger... It's atypical!
	Yes it is.
	It's atypical because most mass shooters Are not white, statistically, to be clear.
	You're right, it's atypical.
	But the media cannot have it both ways and say, anytime it's a mass shooter, it's a white terrorist, and then say, well the only reason it's being covered is because it's a nice white boy.
	You're right, that's abnormal.
	That's not common.
	It's not usual for a primarily, like you said, maybe middle class, upper middle class, white suburban neighborhood to have a mass shooting.
	They happen Almost daily, weekly, in other areas of the country.
	It just isn't covered.
	Well, not anywhere for the same reason.
	Right.
	And that's what I mean, too, is like, drugs, money, whatever it is.
	Oh, not for the same reason.
	Sometimes people, I mean... That's, it's a different, but yeah, it is a different thing.
	And I guess that's even what I was getting at at the beginning is what is the difference between those two?
	The Kyle Rittenhouse thing, I think we all know.
	It's just because it was public.
	It was the, it was such a public thing.
	Yeah.
	That they had to put a huge bail on it because they were trying to keep cities from burning.
	I get that.
	Well, because they want to crucify that kid.
	I mean, he was the one trying to keep cities from burning.
	It was on fire at that time.
	Absolutely.
	But I think it's an important point because here's something that nobody else is talking about right now.
	How many times have we heard this, right?
	Well, we're speaking about the race issue because they divide and conquer and separate everything by race.
	And so the media went with this narrative for a long time saying, oh, Kyle Rittenhouse, Dylann Roof, look, they were taken into custody by police, right?
	Well, so was this guy yesterday.
	They were saying, oh, I guarantee you, if they were black, the police would have shot them on the spot.
	Don't, just remember in case you've forgotten.
	How did Dylann Roof shoot up a church, James Holmes shoot up a movie theater, and both lived to tell about it?
	Why is it that the police decide that some threats must be extinguished immediately while other threats get the privilege of being extinguished?
	Some are active and some are surrendering, dumbass.
	I'm asking these as questions, but I feel like we know the answer.
	You're an idiot.
	The answer is that the gun Active threat versus surrender, you moron!
	Okay, watch this.
	He makes his own counter-argument.
	You moron is the most threatening weapon of war just look at the difference in okay watch it
	He makes his own counter-argument Responded to Rittenhouse alleged gunman Kyle Rittenhouse
	walking away gun in tow as people scream that he just shot protesters
	Do you mean with his hands up and not on the trigger telling the police that he just shot somebody?
	Two incidents two videos with some asking why.
	Oh that's right!
	He was just reaching for a knife in the face.
	Two different responses?
	I think the answer to that is pretty obvious.
	And if you're looking for a better visual illustration of the differences between being black and white in America,
	I don't think you're going to find one.
	Yeah, I think it's the difference between hands up, going to an officer saying,
	Hey, look, these guys attacked me, several of them with a gun,
	I tried to call 911, this is a loaded firearm,
	And the officer saying, thanks, get over here.
	Versus a man, after kidnapping his children from the woman that he raped and filed a restraining order, They're reaching for a knife and a floorboard.
	One's an active threat who wants to be stabby-stabby Mr. Copman, and the other one is saying, hey, what do you want me to do?
	I'll follow orders.
	Yesterday, we have this kid who happens to be a person of color, turned himself in after maybe beating someone up or not, but we certainly know shot four people, and surprise, police didn't shoot him.
	I'm guessing he turned himself in and said, all right, I don't have my gun with me, and I just watched the cops kick the shit out of a white guy in Minneapolis from security camera footage or body cam last night in Minneapolis during the riots because they were going by in an armed vehicle and the white guy put his gun down and they walked they kicked him in the head while he was face down on the ground with his gun away from my point is it goes both ways if you want to see racism in everything and not
	That there is a loaded weapon.
	Not that someone is actively not only resisting arrest, but attacking police officers versus a passive surrender.
	If you decide that the only thing you see is race, well then you might be as dumb as John Oliver, who just rebutted himself.
	And I love how the reporter said, with gun in tow, yeah, that's because it was slung over his shoulder, facing down and backward.
	That is not a threatening position.
	It's almost as if behavior matters more than anything else.
	It's not that black is the scariest weapon out there, it's that behavior dictates how a situation will go.
	Every.
	Single.
	Time.
	Cops.
	Will.
	Tell.
	You.
	That.
	That.
	Is.
	The.
	Number.
	One.
	Indicator.
	Of.
	How.
	You.
	Will.
	Deal.
	With.
	Cops.
	If.
	You.
	Have.
	A. Gun.
	Pointed.
	At.
	Them.
	Or.
	If.
	You're.
	Trying.
	To.
	Get.
	A. Knife.
	You're.
	Probably.
	Gonna.
	Get.
	Shot.
	Yeah.
	That's.
	Not.
	That.
	Controversial.
	At.
	All.

	White.
	Hispanic.
	Or.
	Even.
	The.
	Hong Kong.
	Guy.
	From.
	Earlier.
	I. Scared!
	Yeah.
	I. Don't.
	Know.
	You.
	Surrender.
	To.
	Me.
	See.
	What.
	Happened.
	So.
	Um.
	This is another myth, right?
	This was tweeted out and it was retweeted a bunch of times, that this is the first black mass school shooter ever.
	Okay, that's not even close to true.
	So Dr. Peter Langham, he's a researcher with the National Threat Assessment Center of the United States Secret Service, found this.
	These are just some examples.
	2014, Myron May shot three people at Florida State University.
	Robert Butler, three people, Millard South High School.
	2015, Chris Harper Mercer, 17 people at Umpqua College.
	2007, Nico Tatum, 6 people, Mojave High School.
	There are a bunch of examples, okay?
	And let's also be clear that only 1% of shootings that take place at schools or gun-related
	incidents are mass shootings at all.
	In other words, 99% of gun-related incidents...
	That's it, right?
	1%.
	This is incredible, because by the way the media covers it, you would think that almost all of the shootings that happen at schools are mass shootings.
	That's all.
	The number one thing is just, it's like, oh yeah, people are getting into fights and shooting each other.
	It's very uncommon, and 64% of all gun-related incidents at schools happen in schools that are, I know this is confusing, a majority-minority.
	Meaning that these schools are where a majority of the student population Schools that you would consider black or brown schools.
	Let's just be real about it.
	64% of those incidents occur at those schools.
	And you know what?
	I've had direct experience with this.
	My aunt at Denby High School in Detroit, look it up, she had to have her diploma mailed to her because someone was shot in the face at school.
	My dad, my uncle, sorry again, at Denby High School, there was a lady who was stabbed in the bathroom for being, back then they used the term mulatto, now they say biracial.
	So they live it.
	This was a common occurrence in Detroit.
	It's so common that it doesn't get coverage.
	Yeah, and the reason that you need to know about this is because they're saying that this is an angry white man problem.
	They're saying that angry white men will take a gun and they will go out and they will try and get justice on their own, whether it's a school shooting, a mass shooting, whatever it may be.
	You're going after whoever it may be.
	That clearly is not what's happening here.
	But you know, it's not just that.
	It's that they're not telling you that at all.
	Right.
	They're not telling you that 64% of these things happen.
	Do you know what is an angry white man problem?
	Statistically?
	Angry white middle-aged problem?
	Suicide.
	It's not even close.
	Yeah.
	And your coffee messed up at Starbucks?
	He just went to the bathroom and he came in and he's just talking.
	Boom!
	We're back in.
	Oh, I'm sorry.
	It was almost perfect.
	Middle-aged white males commit suicide at an astronomical rate.
	Yeah.
	It is one of the most common causes for male, I think it's, I don't have the numbers in front of me, like ages 30 to 50.
	And then for teenage black males, I believe homicide is like the number one cause of death.
	It might be number two, because at that point they're not getting the heart disease brackets.
	It's staggeringly high.
	My point is, there is a typical white male problem.
	It's usually middle-class, working, white, middle-aged males.
	And it's not even close.
	We don't talk about that.
	Here's something else.
	People have been going with this right now that it's a myth.
	So if they say it, again, it's just like waving their wand, right?
	There is nothing here.
	It's a myth that a good guy with a gun is what stops a bad guy with a gun.
	Because at first people would say, well, you know what stops a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun.
	Yeah.
	And, uh, first off, before I even go on with this, there was someone saying, yeah, where was that good guy with a gun?
	This was being tweeted out, they were talking about it on CNN.
	I go, oh, okay, yeah, let me ask you, how'd he get taken into custody, stupid?
	The cops are up with Silly String?
	So, do you want more good guys with guns, or just those racist, oppressive police officers?
	I just want to make sure I understand the rule book, because I'm a little murky.
	Okay?
	How were they taken into custody?
	Every single mass shooter you can name at some point was taken in by a good guy with a gun.
	I just believe that we need to give a fighting chance to people who are not police officers.
	And statistically, I'll make this argument, but now they're saying good guy with a gun is a myth.
	You know how I know that's not true?
	First off, probably because of the people who are saying it.
	But the FBI crime data suggests that felons killed justifiably by civilians is 15% higher than law enforcement.
	So this is what I was talking about yesterday on air.
	It was like $2.2 million from the CDC, but these were grants given to people.
	And so some people dove into the crime data.
	I think this is from the FBI Unified Crime Report.
	So, last year, I believe it was 2020, it might be 2020 or 2019, civilians killed 304 people
	who were in the act of committing a felony.
	Okay?
	304.
	Did I say 304?
	343.
	Sorry, I forgot to say the 3.
	343 civilians were killed people who were in the act of a felony.
	Armed.
	Or mostly armed.
	I don't know.
	There are two different numbers.
	I think one is whether they were armed, one is whether they were not.
	They were in the act of committing a violent felony.
	Law enforcement, 298.
	Civilians killed more violent felons in the act of committing a violent felony than the cops.
	That's a good thing.
	Here's something else.
	Let me give this to you.
	I've talked about this before.
	People always throw out the numbers, and it depends on a given year, you know.
	40,000 gun deaths.
	30-something thousand gun deaths.
	Well, a huge portion of those, right, of course, are suicide.
	Over 58%.
	So it's usually about 60%.
	So now you lower it, and you're literally looking at 15 to 20,000 gun deaths per year.
	But let's even be generous here and use a number that they never use.
	480,000 criminal uses of firearms per year.
	Okay.
	And this is according to the National Crime Victimization Survey.
	You know how many defensive uses of firearms?
	2.1 million is the annual estimate.
	So 400,000, only 15,000 murders, homicides, deaths, right?
	Versus 2.1 million defensive uses of firearms each year.
	And the thing is, a lot of those uses of firearms never require a shot.
	No.
	They require simply having a firearm and the bad guy knowing that you have it.
	But even when shots are fired, civilians do it at a higher rate than police officers.
	You know when people go, oh, so you think some guy with his firearm who hasn't gone through police training is going to stop some bad guy with a gun?
	Pretty much!
	Well, and this is the whole crux of the argument.
	Well, this is the argument, right?
	If you're going to stop gun violence in America, the policies that they are putting in place will stop the 2.1 million.
	They'll stop people from defending themselves, for sure.
	But they will not stop criminals from continuing to break the law.
	That's been the argument the entire time.
	You can't get rid of guns.
	Criminals have them.
	I want the 2.1 million people that did that, or 2.1 million instances, to have a shot.
	That's it.
	And you're not hearing that from CNN.
	No one's saying it's a guarantee, but it is a guarantee that they don't even have a fighting chance if you strip them of their right.
	Of course.
	It's their right to basic self-preservation.
	Look, let me give you two scenarios, and then we're going to go to Muggleb here and take your chat, and I think play—oh, God.
	We're going to play Stephen Knows Sports, apparently something with Tom Brady, who I guess is a quarterback.
	Let me give you two scenarios.
	I don't think— I guess?
	I don't think that it has happened, or I think it happens very rarely, That a woman is in the process of being raped, going, thank God I don't have a gun right now, otherwise this might have gotten out of control.
	I think it happens quite often that someone finds themselves in a scenario where they realize, and it clicks, oh, if I only had a firearm right now, this entire scenario could have been neutralized, only it's too late.
	That is true.
	It is a lot, but when people say, oh, the risk doesn't outweigh the rewards, That's not true.
	When people say, your gun is more likely to be used on you, that's not true.
	The truth is that the risks, if you don't have a firearm, you get raped, you get killed, you get tortured, defenseless, you're a victim.
	The reward, if you have a firearm, and of course are responsible with it, and there are more resources available right now than ever, In American history, to learn responsible use of firearms and storing of firearms is, oh, you might be able to have a fighting chance against a rapist murderer.
	You might actually be able to exercise your God-given ability to self-preservation.
	That's what it comes down to.
	I know you wish that there weren't any guns.
	I know that you wish that the people weren't violent.
	I know you wish there were no mass shootings.
	I know you wish you could wave your magic wand, but you can't.
	And so right now there are people out there who have to deal with other folks who have no problem infringing upon their rights and they have one of the hundreds of millions of firearms wherever they are here in the United States or across the world.
	What do you do?
	Do you allow the general population the God-given right to protect themselves?
	Ooh, this rape hurts.
	Thank God I don't have a mouse gun on me, otherwise I really might have been another statistic.
	Don't think it happens a whole lot.
	You can let me know.
	Just making an inference here.
	YouTube, you know what?
	I know you don't like this, and I don't like you.
