George Floyd Controversy

| Hello, everybody. | |
| Dennis Prager here. | |
| Ryan in Atlanta, Georgia. | |
| Hello. | |
| Hi, Dennis. | |
| First of all, I do love your show. | |
| Very good show. | |
| Thank you. | |
| I listen to it dance. | |
| Thank you. | |
| But my question is, going back to what you were saying about George Floyd, are you saying that he didn't die from the officer's knee being on his neck? | |
| Apparently, there were two autopsy reports, and one says he didn't, and one says he did. | |
| I haven't heard of the two autopsy reports. | |
| I've only heard of one that said that he died. | |
| Right. | |
| Well, let me say, listen, I have zero vested interest except truth. | |
| I've been broadcasting 35 years. | |
| I am committed to the truth more than any other single thing. | |
| It does not appear that that common use of a way of subduing a suspect who won't enter the police car, this commonly used tactic has ever killed anybody. | |
| It might have. | |
| I don't know. | |
| It'll be interesting to see what the jury recommends, but I don't believe the Minneapolis Police Department would have something that is likely to kill somebody. | |
| Okay. | |
| I'm not going to say that it didn't kill them. | |
| I'm not going to say it didn't either. | |
| I don't know. | |
| Look, I said, because I'm committed to telling you the truth, people were saying he can't breathe, he can't breathe. | |
| And that is a charge against the policeman. | |
| But it is also a charge against the charge that he was killed, which is the mainstream press's charge. | |
| I don't know if he was killed by the policeman. | |
| And I don't know if he was killed by the policeman that it was racist. | |
| These are two huge leaps that the country has taken, causing untold anger and damage. | |
| Okay? | |
| I absolutely believe that. | |
| I can agree with the fact that the media has definitely turned America into something that I don't think it's been in quite some time. | |
| I think it's been... | |
| Elevated. | |
| Of course, social media has completely reformed the entire world and the way that we operate. | |
| That's right. | |
| I will say, with regards to this police brutality that everyone's talking about, and more specifically with George Floyd's scenario, since that's what you're talking about this morning or this afternoon. | |
| I do think that looking at that video, that there should be some type of reforms done to the police department. | |
| The police department shouldn't hurt people, shouldn't kill people. | |
| That's not their goal. | |
| Their goal is to protect. | |
| I am with you. | |
| You're a good man. | |
| I'm honored to have you as a listener. | |
| I just want to say, I don't know. | |
| I admit, I don't know if this thing has ever killed anybody. | |
| I would allow myself, let me put it to you this way. | |
| I would allow myself to have a knee on the side of my neck and see what happens. | |
| That is how skeptical I am that that is a direct killer of human beings. | |
|
Thank You Again

|
| It's hard for me to believe the Minneapolis Police Department would have something routine that has a likelihood of killing. | |
| Okay. | |
| Anyway, I'm going to continue with Thank You Again, and I'm going to continue with Professor Hilarious. | |
