When disaster hits, security isn't optional.
You know what people hate?
You know what the bravest thing in the world you can do is speak the truth?
Even address the truth?
You see, we live in a world of sitting of landmines.
Things in areas we can't go.
Things in areas we can't talk about.
Things in areas and stuff that we are told, stay away from it.
Stay away from it.
And that's the problem.
Stay away.
Don't go there.
And the best way to know you're exactly over the target is when you take flack, but also when something is called misinformation or disinformation.
That means it's true.
If you ever said something which was truly a lie, something that was so specious, so beyond the realm of anything even remotely recognizable as truth, nobody would care about it.
Nobody would care about it.
But, but, if you say something which is true, but hurtful, forget it.
Forget it.
That's why, by the way, we've always stood by One of our favorite sponsors, MyPillow.
And they've been with us.
And the more people, the more that name comes up.
It's a great product.
The pillows are incredible.
The toppers are great.
The blankets and the towels and the slippers.
Everything.
But whenever it takes on a kind of a degree of...

All I'm saying, MyPillow.com, they are great.
Support them.
MyPillow.com, promo code Lionel.
Okay.
Do you know what the worst thing is?
Just the worst.
Let me give you an example.
One of my favorite topics is the idea of should people who are overweight, morbidly obese, I'm sorry, morbidly being maybe that which could affect their health, should they be forced to or made to buy different accommodations because of their height and because of their size and because of whatever?
Now the question is, well, here's the deal.
Do you want to talk about that?
No.
Because you're called fat shaming.
It's called fat shaming.
Fat shaming to me is when you just make fun of somebody.
And you say, wait a minute.
Hey, fatty!
You know, that's not nice.
But if somebody says, excuse me, your particular situation affects my ability to enjoy this thing.
I'm sorry.
I'll give you an example.
Are neurological disorders funny?
No.
Do you think somebody who has them is funny?
No.
Do you think we as a society should open our hearts and minds to those individuals?
Of course.
Yes, yes, yes.
Good.
Now here's my question.
What if somebody has something a la Tourette's, but not really, but somebody who is unable to control their vocalizations?
Should they be allowed to attend Broadway musicals?
Or, excuse me, plays.
Very serious plays.
Very serious.
The Diary of Anne Frank where somebody's yelling from the rafters.
I'm trying to make a joke.
Do you think my ability to enjoy this, my ability to enjoy this should be in any way impeded or interrupted by somebody who cannot control their ability to...
Okay.
So what do I do?
What, shut down the production?
Or do we say, sorry, we have a special Tourette's Day?
Or...
I'm not trying to mock this.
I mean this.
What are you supposed to do?
Now, it's a rarity.
It doesn't happen that often.
And in the cases of airline flights, most people are not so obese that they are not able to enjoy a regular seat.
But what happens if you were, let's say, seven foot tall?
Let's say you were Andre the Giant.
Andre the Giant had incredibly horrible instances flying on planes to Japan.
You know how he went to the bathroom?
I'm not even going to get into that.
It's not pretty.
But, that was an accommodation he had to make because in our society, the level of transportation that we use, called airlines, do not allow for bench seats.
But what today is, somebody will say, this is my right.
You're shaming me.
There's some type of particular right.
I was just reading this.
People are demanding, demanding, demanding that planes be bigger and that people are...
Now listen.
Do you want to talk about the truth?
No.
Do you want to talk about why people are like that?
No.
Can I ask questions about this?
No.
Can I ask whether this woman has a glandular pituitary or some type of hormonal disorder?
No.
May I find out, may I determine if her weight gain, is this something that she can even control?
That makes a big difference.
There's a big difference.
If you don't think that's true, the person who's yelling, the person who yells because he can't help it, versus somebody who, whenever he gets bored, he just yells to pick up the action.
Is that it?
There's a big difference between somebody who cannot help doing that which they do.
So may I bring up the fact?
May I bring this up?
In fact, in New York City, they're talking about new legislation to prevent obese discrimination.
What does that even mean?
What does that even mean?
I don't understand this.
Please tell me.
What we need is brutal truth.
And we can't do it.
And especially when you're on social media platforms where somebody could say, this is hate.
Hate?
I'm just asking.
And you can tell when there's hate or somebody really hates somebody.
This is where we are right now.
If I have something, if I do something where I, by virtue of a disease, I have.
Let's say, for example, alcoholism.
Terrible.
Drunk.
Being drunk in public.
Being inebriated.
Being...
A dipsomaniac.
Do you think that society would be able to reasonably curtail my behavior based upon my...
the stuff that I'm doing?
Do you think?
Do you think that I, being an alcoholic, should not be allowed to...
Let's say drive buses or trains?
Of course.
What about be in daycare?
Of course.
What about handle-sharp objects?
Of course.
See?
Nobody's mocking my alcoholism, but they're saying your degree of interbriety may make you and other people unsafe.
But that's not it.
Let's also talk about some things.
Let's say...
I want to get a job.
For 50 years, 40 years, I've worked at Brooks Brothers.
Let's say Brooks Brothers or Paul Stewart or whatever.
And I'm a great tailor.
And there's a place that is opening up down the street and it's designed to cater to hip-hop crews, African-American, urban, young people.
And I go to apply for a job in my suit and I'm white and I'm 65 years old.
I love saying that.
And somebody says, no, why?
Well, because you're white.
What?
You're white.
The clientele is black.
You don't relate.
How dare you?
Now, is that true?
Yes, it's true.
Yes, it's true.
What about if you had a gay bar with a gay clientele and somebody who walks in, he's a cowboy, looks like somebody who's from the movie Yosemite or something, and this guy comes in and...
Makes the gay clientele seem a little uncomfortable.
Should that person be given a job?
No!
Is that unfair?
No!
It's called preference.
It's also called the brutal truth.
Do you think a woman who is 75 years old should be able to get a job at Hooters?
No!
This is reality!
Do you want to talk about demographics of crime?
Oh, God no.
God no.
Do you know?
We're looking at reparations.
People are talking about that, but African Americans.
You know that the African American community in this country represents about 13.6% of the population.
13.6% population.
It differs like 60 million or whatever it is.
So, this is a very different figure, I think, compared to most.
Do you know that if I were to compare that number with, let's say, Jews?
People who identify as Jewish.
About 2%.
2%.
Can I compare criminal statistics of the 2% with the 13.6%?
Or, let's say there are other people who are similarly situated, whatever that particularly means.
Am I able to look at, for example, the violent assault rate of Chinese-born citizens versus African Americans?
No!
Do you see what happens?
When you get too close to an area that may or may not describe a situation which is not commensurate with the usual narrative, the usual narrative that is provided, or where it might be, you may not like the results.
For example, why are there so many Sicilians in the mob?
Well, one reason is you've got to be Sicilian to be in the mob, theoretically, the LCN.
Sort of.
At least, the old rules.
Does that say anything about the propensity, the proclivity of Sicilians to be criminals?
Not really.
What does it mean then?
Well, it means a lot of things.
Do you want to go there?
Italians?
The mob?
Yeah, we can talk about that.
Okay.
Do you want to make certain corollaries with other races?
No.
Why?
Can't do that.
Third rail.
Why?
Brutal talk doesn't work that way.
Don't do that.
You can talk about him, but not him.
You can talk about this condition, but not that one.
Don't mention weight.
You can do it to an extent, but don't push it.
Why?
Because there are these, talk about an Overton window, there are these levels of discussion that we can have, and I don't know where you go for the actual official rating this week, but I know when you have to stay away from it.
