New York City is known for a lot of things, but one of the things that I know it is known for, and you may not know this, is its stupid laws.
That's right.
We were the one who brought you the 16-ounce or the large soda bands.
Remember this under Bloomberg?
Then there was a law that mandated particular compost preparation.
Then there was a law that was going to ban salt or sodium or have listings of sodium.
Then there was going to be another law that mandated that you showed the calories of various foods.
And then there was something which was really nuts.
This was under, I think it was under Rudy Giuliani.
They stopped, or they tried to stop jaywalking, which cannot be done in New York City.
You have to walk to the end of the block, which could be like three miles, cross the street at the light.
I mean, even though the street is this wide and there's no cars, I mean, he tried that for a while.
Rudy even did something one time where he wanted people to be nice.
That lasted about 20 minutes.
I don't even know how.
How he even planned to enforce that.
But he did this.
This goes to show you.
So there's been all kinds of stuff.
All kinds of crazy stuff that they have promoted and pushed.
But this declaring war on pizza in a town that is known for a style of pizza.
There's New York style, Chicago style, Detroit.
We can go through all that.
For another video, perhaps.
But think about the utter insanity of this.
Well, I've thought about it, and I want to discuss this with you and point out a few things as someone who lives here, and why this is not just a trivial issue, but indicative of the lunacy, the insanity, and the tyranny that is befalling our wonderful republic.

Now, there are things, as I told you, there are things that people can say.
Are contributing to global warming, climate change.
Remember we had plastic straws.
We cared about that for an hour.
And then they're back.
But they were gone for a while, but now they're back.
Well, pizza.
New York City has ordered pizzerias that use coal and wood to crack down on their carbon emissions by 75%.
And the wood and coal stoves are apparently, it is alleged, one of the largest contributors to air pollution, and that is just, as they say, a, quote, common sense rule.
Now, the regulation is going to require pizzeria owners and pizzaiolos to buy incredibly expensive emission control devices.
With one, one in particular, there was a store thing in Brooklyn that said you have to spend $20,000 for an air filter.
Now, let's just stop right now because I'm getting sick just thinking about this.
A while back, we also had this, believe it or not, when barbecue made its way to New York.
New York was not a barbecue place at all.
I'm going to say 20 years ago, May 15th, they started to take off as the excitement of the particular food took off.
And they tried this as well because they said, look, if you have a store in a building that would and whatever could go up and could affect buildings, that kind of sort of maybe made sense.
This is in a city, by the way, that has nothing but furnaces.
Furnaces everywhere.
This is a city that doesn't care about drug addicts, crack addicts, meth addicts, heroin addicts strewn about.
It doesn't care about smash and grab robberies at CVS stores and Sephora's and Walgreens.
It doesn't care about any of that stuff.
It means nothing.
But this, oh yes, this.
And what it does, and the reason for this is very simple.
First, I am convinced, and I have no particular reason to believe this, but I am convinced that in the halls of Congress or city councils or state legislatures, they get together and they think of what can be done that is beyond stupid.
What can they do?
And they won't announce this, but among themselves they say, hey, that was great.
Jerry, did you do that?
Yeah, that was really stupid.
Thanks.
In a town, Again, in a town where pizza is on every corner.
New York pizza is so good and so competitive that for you to even stay in business has got to be supreme.
Supreme.
Now think about what we're talking about here.
Think about this.
This is something that is beyond anything that we need to...
How do I say this?
That we need to...
Even explain.
So what they're doing is they're showing how ridiculous, how draconian, how tyrannical, and to push you into doing one of two things.
Maybe push you into doing something, which never happens, or push you into the area of habituation, becoming used to it, becoming conditioned, becoming...
Worn out and worn down.
You just do this.
You just say, okay, if that's what it is, fine.
All right.
And that's exactly what they want you to do.
Something that makes you think this is insanity.
And the use of the word carbon.
Carbon.
We are organic organisms, and the definition of organic is containing what again?
Carbon.
This word has become synonymous with the death of humanity.
And they sit back and they think, what can we do that will barely pass the laugh test?
They did this with bovine flatulence, flatus.
Erectation and borborygmus?
It's actually cow belching.
Belching.
Not flatus.
Not the flatulence.
We're talking about cow belching, not...
I know what you're thinking.
Because that is the idea.
Now, what are you supposed to do with this?
I have no idea.
What are you supposed to do with bovine borborygmus?
I have no idea.
I don't know.
But they love to do this.
They're thinking of new ways.
They'll say, let them eat bugs.
Lab-grown meat.
Anything to disrupt your sense of normalcy.
And the way they do it is to go through your food.
They want to destroy your food.
They want to take that which you love.
Now in New York, of course, we're known for dirty water dogs.
Nobody ever goes after that.
Have you seen what's in a hot dog?
I don't think so.
We have food carts and halal food and there's all kinds of stuff.
And that's one of the beauties of this area is the absolute diversity of food.
If you do something which basically seeks to destroy pizza, it's indicative of this desire for complete and total tyranny.
And by the way, one more thing.
As I record this right now, our skies are again orange.
Maranja.
By virtue of some mysterious fires coming from some mysterious place that our Governor Kathy Hochul happened to know about earlier this week through ways I do not understand.
But she knew about this.
And what we are seeing right now is the most incredible fog And why do you think, what is the reason for that?
You got it.
Climate change.
And the thing that's interesting about climate change is they never tell you exactly, well, what is it that you want me to do?
If I agree with you, if I say, okay, climate change is the issue, do you think stopping pizza?
Is going to do anything?
Do you think pizza ovens are the cause of climate change?
They're pointing out, it's like if you say obesity is a problem.
Alright, fine.
Well, what do you want to do about it?
Well, I don't want to do anything.
I just want to blame everything on obesity.
Well, do you want to attack obesity?
No, I just want to blame everything on obesity.
That's where we are right now.
Please do not dismiss this as, oh, it's just a pizza story.
No.
This is another example of government ratcheting up Turning up the screws and elevating the volume and the intensity of the insanity to wear you down, wear you out, and habituate you to complete and total control.
This is by design.
This is not a mistake.
And more is coming.
Unless we do something about this now.
What do you think?
