[00:00:11]  Hello, everybody.
[00:00:12]  Welcome to the Monday show.
[00:00:14]  I hope you had a good weekend.
[00:00:16]  That's my traditional Monday greeting.
[00:00:19]  I even have thoughts on whether people have good weekends, but I will not enter that field right now.
[00:00:25]  Hi, everybody.
[00:00:29]  So the big news has been the Memphis police.
[00:00:32]  I watched the video.
[00:00:35]  I always know that there may be a story that we're not aware of in watching a video, which in any event, in my case at least, I didn't hear any sounds.
[00:00:46]  Did you, in your video, of what happened?
[00:00:49]  I know they reported what the victim said.
[00:00:55]  But anyway, it looked terrible.
[00:00:57]  There's no question about that.
[00:00:59]  It just looked terrible.
[00:01:02]  And if it is as terrible as it looked, one has to figure out how this occurs or why this occurs.
[00:01:10]  Is it simply a complete outlier in the Memphis police force, which I pray it is?
[00:01:19]  Is it indicative of something more serious, whether it is in Memphis or any other city?
[00:01:27]  I'll give you an example.
[00:01:30]  Given the obscene attacks on police, defund the police, police are racist, etc., who wants to become a policeman today?
[00:01:51]  Isn't that a fair question?
[00:01:53]  I mean, in the not-too-distant past, a lot of young men and women desired to become policemen and became a lot of young men and women desired to become policemen

=== Daily Encounters with Society's Worst (01:44) ===

[00:02:14]  And while, of course, there is no field on earth that only has saintly people, a lot of cops...
[00:02:28]  How would you like that?
[00:02:36]  How would you like to meet the worst of society every single day?
[00:02:41]  You think that would affect you?
[00:02:43]  Of course it would affect you.
[00:02:45]  How would you like to go to work every day and know that there is a certain chance that you, unlike an accountant who goes to work, Or a CEO who goes to work, or anybody else who goes to work, you may get killed.
[00:03:02]  That there are people who want to kill you because of your uniform.
[00:03:08]  That's pretty serious stuff.
[00:03:11]  And given all of that, how few cases we have that are comparable to what happened in Memphis, and yet the left, which is as...
[00:03:24]  Vile a world as we have ever produced in America since the Civil War.
[00:03:30]  Yet the left doesn't ask fair questions because it's not interested in fair questions.
[00:03:37]  It is interested in hate.
[00:03:39]  There is no hate group like the left of any size in the United States.
[00:03:45]  The left is a giant hate group, beginning with hatred of the United States.
[00:03:50]  Hatred of Western Civilization.
[00:03:54]  Hatred of a term that they really loathe, law and order.
