The question that's on everybody's mind is this: The shooting in Las Vegas, is this some kind of conspiracy or what's going on out there?
We're talking with Cheryl in Flowers.
Cheryl, how are you?
I am great.
Nice to be here.
You're in Barnes& Noble.
Yes, I am, as you can probably see books behind me.
I tried to set up some Trump books, since I don't have my Trump picture with me.
Yep, and we get a little background music that never hurts.
Okay, I'm going to go over to my website for just a second.
You can't see this, but the folks at home can see it.
I've got a page that's called Ken's Laws.
Every time I think of something, I put it in here and call it a law.
And Kinzhal number three is this.
Every major news story will be accompanied by at least one major conspiracy theory.
So the conspiracy theory is the shooter in Las Vegas is a Muslim and he was there to shoot white people.
What are your thoughts on that?
I think it could be true.
I mean, seriously.
What do you think?
Well, seriously, I think it could be.
I also think there's a lot of Antifa going on, and from different people that I've talked to and converse with, it could be any of those, because we know basically they have the same agenda.
Which is the story of the country, right?
Right, exactly.
Antifa are definitely against Trump supporters, and there were quite a few there.
Also, Islam, as we know, in my opinion, is behind a lot of this.
And if you just look up every section that it goes by of what they do in order, this would be on an agenda.
Not so much shooting people.
At that particular thing, but it's to cause chaos, because chaos is where they thrive.
Yeah, they wanted to disrupt culture.
There was a post on Twitter, I think it's been since discredited, but allegedly from David Letterman...
Chicken this good deserves a fancier kind of cheese.
So we got whole...
Well, you'll have to tell me about that, because I am unsure about it.
Okay, I don't think this is actually from Letterman.
I think it's a hoax, but it doesn't matter because it's what people are thinking.
Las Vegas shooter Stephen Paddock was not a lone wolf.
He was not mentally ill.
He was a terrorist.
And white privilege.
That doesn't sound like Letterman, does it?
No, it doesn't.
I don't think he'd post something like that.
But, anyhow, people are just trying to spread all kinds of rumors.
So, my understanding is, what is it, 50-some people being killed?
And this guy was some kind of a nutcase.
But the point of the matter is, this is the culture, this is the society in which we live.
And it seems to be getting worse.
I mean, this is, what, the deadliest shooting in American history ever?
And before that, it was a shooting in, um...
Florida, so, you know, what should we do about this?
What do you think?
Just ignore it, or is there a fix?
I don't think at this point, in my opinion, that anything should be ignored.
There are too many factors out there that could apply to any of them, and it needs to be investigated in the correct way so that nothing is left out.
And nothing to hear say.
I know that I've been talking to several people and there was more than one shooter, possibly even three.
So we have to keep this into account and realize that there are cells of people out there.
And all they want to do is to do what happened here and in Florida.
I mean, they just really do.
And it's something that we need to realize that this is reality today.
This is not a long time ago where maybe our fathers grew up or wherever.
But what I'm saying is this.
This is today.
And so we have to take all these factors into account.
Yeah, it's a different world.
But you know what I think, Jennifer?
I think the media.
Cheryl.
What did I say?
Cheryl.
Jennifer.
Jennifer Flowers.
Do you get that a lot?
No, you do it a lot.
I do it a lot.
Okay, Cheryl, if I do it again, reach out and smack me.
I will.
Stuffed in my head.
Cheryl.
Okay, now I forgot what I was going to say.
Okay, anyhow, let's go over to this.
It'll come back to me in just a second.
See what happens when you get old.
Okay.
Okay, now I know what I was talking about.
It seems to me that the media, because it hypes these types of stories, it almost glorifies them.
It's like they love this kind of gore because they have a political agenda.
The more they can disrupt society, the more they can blame it on what they don't like.
So my conclusion is, it seems to me that maybe the media should be held responsible, that they are complicit.
When we see these kinds of acts of violence, now not just a shooting from some guy who apparently is some kind of a nutcase, you know, I guess he was, you know, high in a hotel and shooting the crowd below, but also, you know, the riots that we saw in Ferguson and then later in Baltimore, the media takes this stuff and it just explodes it, encouraging people to go out there and do this type of stuff.
So, you know, the media, I think, is responsible for it.
Maybe not directly, but I think they're responsible.
I feel that way, too.
The media is trying to find stuff to make news from, and they don't care what it is.
They want the hype to get larger so their ratings will go up because they have been plummeting, as we all know.
So people are curious and want to find out what's going on.
The thing is...
They are an instigator.
Besides being a propaganda machine, they are instigators.
And that encourages anyone that has any inclination to do something like this.
It gives them a real high to do it.
If they're basically that type of person and they hear...
All this encouragement or what happened and they want to make a name for themselves, they're going to do something like this.
And the media should be held accountable.
Okay, on the screen I've got the story from Breitbart.
It says, with no evidence, Islamic State claims responsibility for Las Vegas shooting.
So that is conceivably, possibly...
Well, they might be lying, but then again, maybe they did.
One of the things I've noticed...
Cheryl, notice I didn't say Jennifer, Cheryl.
One of the things I've noticed is that when Muslims attack in the West, talking about Europe and the United States and Australia, wherever, Western countries, they almost always select white people.
Now, the reason I say that is this is a country music concert.
By the way, are you into country music?
You gotta be.
You're from Texas.
I love country music.
In fact, I love most every kind of music.
But I do love it because it's part of my roots.
You like hip-hop?
I like hip-hop.
No, you can't like hip-hop.
Do you?
Seriously?
I am serious.
I like classical.
I like just about everything you can think of.
Toby Mac!
You know, he's a rapper.
I like his things.
There's lots of music that I like.
I got no idea who he is.
Who's your favorite country singer?
We're way off topic here, but your favorite country musicians.
Do not say Dixie Chicks.
Do not say Dixie Chicks.
Your favorite country performers, I should say.
Jason Aldean, and let's see, he's a big one to me because I like the way he does, and also Blake Shelton.
I like him too.
So those are my two favorites.
Okay, you can shoot me because I've never heard of them.
Seriously, I am so out of touch.
I mean, this guy who was doing the concert in Las Vegas, I never heard of him.
Really?
Oh, well.
Well, you know a lot of other things, though, so I'll give you a pass on that.
My idea of good country music, do you remember Larry Gatlin?
No.
Gatlin Brothers.
My sister probably would.
Yeah, the Gatlin Brothers.
Alabama, you've heard of them.
Say yes.
Somewhat.
Okay, somewhat.
I mean, that's back in the 80s, I guess.
I mean, that's 30-something years ago.
That is my style of country music.
The harmony, you know, but we're off topic.
Well, the reason we brought that up is because this was a country concert, country music.
By the way, Glen Campbell, you know him?
He died not too long ago.
He did die.
He was good, yeah.
The story is that because this was a country music concert, virtually everybody there was white.
It's kind of like NASCAR. So virtually all the attendees were white.
And people who like country music tend to be Republicans, white Republicans.
So the conspiracy theory is that this guy fired on this crowd because They were white Trump supporters, the ultimate evil.
You got a take on that?
That is a very good take, in my opinion, on it.
Because where else?
I mean, there's lots of places in Las Vegas they could have chosen to go to if they weren't looking for that particular type of group of people.
So, yes, I tend to think that that is a main factor in it.
It seems crazy to me that even many white people are so apt on destroying other white people, and I don't know why, because, you know, actually, we are getting to be in a minority situation.
People in Texas are a little different, maybe in some other parts, because I know before all of this, Black Lives Matter and the other things, We got along together.
We all have our differences and that was fine because there's no two trees alike.
There's no grass alike, flowers alike.
And we all got along.
We grew together.
We loved each other.
My church has six different congregations in it and they're all different.
That's a big church.
The groups are not huge, but they are large.
And we all love each other.
We do anything for each other.
And that's the thing, I think, if you're going to think in those terms, even when I decided, well, I'd just wear my Trump pants shirt and go out and see what happens, I may have gotten some looks.
Nobody said anything.
Because we realize that there are differences.
Now, these people who went and did this at Las Vegas, different type of people.
I found that, in my opinion, there are so many people who are predisposed to letting their peers or media or whoever influenced them that they take everything into account and they do what they want to do.
That's how I feel about it.
Yep.
Well, the fact is we tend to act out whatever we believe.
And we don't know.
I guess the answer to the question is we don't know what this guy was thinking because we haven't gotten inside his head.
And even after the police investigate and the FBI investigates, can we trust the media to tell us?
No.
So I'm not sure we'll ever know what his motive was, what was inside his head.
I know the media will spin it.
But what I do know is this, is that we tend to act out what we believe.
Something that I talk about all the time.
So, for example, if I believed my office here was on fire, I would act out on that belief.
I'd get up and leave.
Okay, now it may not be on fire, but if I believed it was, I'd leave because that's what I believe.
Right now I believe it's not, so I'm going to sit here and talk to you.
The point being, we...
Act out what we believe.
Now, there's a biblical principle that says faith comes by hearing.
The question is, what have we been listening to?
So whatever we hear...
Why do I feel like I'm preaching a sermon?
But whatever we hear, that's what we believe.
So the question is, what are we listening to?
What are we letting to come inside our head?
So, Cheryl, is anybody...
I think this is true of probably everybody, but has anybody ever said something bad about you that wasn't true?
But people believed it?
You know what I'm talking about?
People do tend to do that, especially if they don't understand you or if they don't like where you were coming from.
They'll do that because everyone is different.
We look at things differently.
It's like anything else in life.
Some people like a certain type of vehicle and other ones like that.
If you have someone that comes on television or radio or whatever you're listening to and they give an advertisement of something, you're more apt to go out and get that product.
And it's the same thing when we hear media day after day tell us things.
And we say, well, maybe...
Maybe they're right.
Even if we hadn't made up our minds, lots of people are like that.
I'm not like that.
I like to get all the facts, and I like to see the different sides.
And that's what I go to, and I rule it out to see what the truth is.
But a lot of people don't do that or don't know how to do that.
So that's what I feel and what I think.
If they say something against me...
Sure, it hurts.
It hurts anyone, but that doesn't mean it's true.
The thing is, is that these people are going on something that they think is the truth, and so they act upon it.
Yeah, the point is, there's something about human nature that we hear something, and we believe it.
That's what happens with children in school.
They're told something like...
Well, we might talk about another subject in a little bit.
But the children are very susceptible to what they hear.
And all we have to do is go and see some things on that.
But that's the way so many minds are.
We're like sponges, and we pick those things up.
Yeah, we're like sponges.
When you were little, did you believe in Santa Claus?
I did.
I sure did.
Okay, you had this faith in Santa Claus.
You had this belief that Santa Claus was real.
How did you lose your faith?
Well, let's see.
That's an unusual child.
Well, I'm making a point here is what I asked.
I figured it out pretty soon because I thought, well, Santa, if this is real, they're going to be making those toys.
And I've seen too many advertisements.
So I knew, well, Santa didn't do that, so I would kind of sneak around and look, and so, yeah, I was one of those kids that did that.
But I pretended I didn't know, just so I could keep getting more presents, I might say.
Yeah, the point of that is, we all believe things that aren't true, and when you're dealing with people like liberals and left-wingers, and I'm kind of talking to the whole audience here, and you're wondering, Why is it that these people shout so much?
Why don't they want to have a conversation?
Why do they chant?
Why is it it's virtually impossible to have a one-on-one, rational, logical conversation with them?
It's because they don't want to hear the truth.
They don't want to hear the truth, and they don't know the truth.
They haven't gone to the trouble of finding out the facts.
So they yell, and you can ask them questions, but they don't have the answers.
The analogy is they want to believe in Santa Claus.
They want to believe in cultural Marxism.
They want to believe white people are innately evil.
They want to believe that Marxism is the solution to everything.
They want to believe in Santa Claus.
But the only way, you know, and again, I'm kind of preaching a sermon to everybody here, but the only way that you can...
Convince them that there is no Santa Claus, that cultural Marxism isn't true, that white people are not innately evil, that everything can't be attributed to white privilege.
The only way you can convince people is to show them that there is no Santa Claus.
When you and I were little, we believed there was Santa Claus, but when we started looking at the evidence, it became obvious.
You know, so I think the way to convince liberals that they're nuts is to get the truth in front of them.
That, by the way, is why I'm doing this stream.
That's why I do have my YouTube channel.
That's why liberals hate the internet, is because, you know, we're telling people, look, there really is no Santa Claus, you liberals out there.
You know, it doesn't exist.
And once you get all the facts on the table, that's why they hate Milo.
It's why they don't like, what's...
I forgot her name, that writer that they hate so much, the woman Ann Coulter.
I don't know, but I like Tony, too.
Tony tells it like it is.
Who's Tony?
You don't know Tony?
You've got a lot of homework to do.
Yeah, I do.
I'm in touch.
Yeah, she's kind of like the voice of now.
She tells it just like it is, just like Milo does.
Milo gets in there to the heart.
And she does too, except she's got a little more fire in her.
What is Toni's last name?
I'm not sure what it is.
Look it up on Facebook.
She's got her own little thing, and I'm in a group with her.
But she just goes by Toni.
T-O-N-I-E or T-O-N-Y? T-O-N-I. T-O-N-I. You'll have to look it up.
Is she a big deal, or is she somebody we can get on the stream sometime?
Well, she's pretty famous, so I don't know.
She may be on Fox by now.
I think they were thinking about hiring her.
Oh, I know who it is, yeah.
Okay, long blonde hair.
Yep, yep.
Yeah, she's too big.
She'll never come on until we get huge.
So who knows?
But I don't really like Milo's lifestyle.
I don't quote him too much because of that.
I don't like his lifestyle, but he does get down to brass tacks, and he goes to colleges, and that's a good thing.
The point is, the whole point of all that is, the reason they hate those guys, want to shut them up, isn't because they're saying something that is wrong, it's because something that dispels their nonsense.
They're exposing Santa Claus.
He doesn't exist.
Sorry, liberals.
There is no Santa Claus or, you know, Virginia or whatever.
So, what are they gonna do?
They're gonna try to shut us down every opportunity they can.
I don't know if you've ever been kicked off Facebook, but I've been kicked off Facebook so many times.
They just don't like what I'm saying.
I've been kicked off YouTube five times, I think.
But, fortunately, they put me back up last time.
So anyhow, the story is, there really is no evidence, but the Muslims are taking claim for it.
And by the way, this is a little bit off topic, but I don't like talking about militant Muslims versus Muslims, because in my opinion, they're all militants.
They are.
Think about it.
Okay, in their Quran, if they are practicing Muslims, what does it tell them to do?
Everything.
I mean, I have a friend that's a Marine that goes to my church, and he actually said to me yesterday that he had actually read some of it just to see what it's about, kind of like know your enemy.
And so he said everything on there, everything that he turned to was violent and horrible.
That's what it is.
If you're any kind of Muslim at all, which it says that if you leave it, they're supposed to kill you, or anything else, you have to go by their rules.
Now, if push comes down to shove, who are they going to follow?
See, it's like that.
I don't think you can just judge it by saying radical versus moderate or anything else.
It just isn't.
Okay, I've got a website on the screen now.
You can't see it, Cheryl, but folks at home can see it.
This is a website I refer to often.
It's called TheReligionOfPeace.com.
You're probably familiar with it, Cheryl.
I am.
I'm going to keep saying your name so I get Jennifer out of my mouth.
I know.
Good deal.
Okay, today is the 2nd of October, 2017. 18 people were killed by Muslims so far today.
Have you seen that on the news?
I haven't.
No. Pakistan, one person was killed.
A bomb was planted by religious radicals.
And in Syria and Damascus, two suicide bombers killed 17 people.
No news story.
Now, if that had happened in, say, France or Britain, or the United States or Australia, it would be headline news.
But it happened in Syria, so they were not talking about it.
However, in France, a man shouting praise to Allah slits the throat of one woman and stabs another to death.
I didn't hear about that on the news.
That happened yesterday.
You didn't hear about Canada either.
They had one there that stabbed a policeman, done some terrible things.
They found flags in his vehicle.
There is a lot and I have friends in Canada that are really having good people that are really having an awful time because of the Muslim situation and so many of them are even coming from our borders and passing over into Canada and that makes it difficult because Canada's had an open border and they're finding out many of them that They've made the wrong choice,
and now they're kind of stuck in it.
Plus, a lot of their people in the political realm are for them.
But, I mean, this is a worldwide situation.
It's not just a small portion of Europe.
I mean, even in Burma, I mean, there are so many people that are affected.
by Islam and it's not in a good way because they take over they change everything they don't go into a culture and accept that culture what they do is eradicate it and that's what we would be looking at if it had not been for Trump getting into office because it was all set up and basically back to the new world order it all goes back to that My concern,
Cheryl, is that Trump is just a small detour.
It's kind of like a speed bump, but they're going to keep going that direction.
Mine too.
I believe that too.
Okay.
Russia.
This is yesterday.
One guy was killed.
A Muslim terrorist murdered a border guard.
Story in England.
14-year-old Shiite is stabbed.
By Sunni, so it's Muslim on Muslim.
He lives.
That's not a fatality.
Nigeria, one person is killed in an attack.
In Afghanistan, two were killed.
Then comes the story in Canada on the 30th.
Sudan, one was killed.
Afghanistan, five.
Somalia, ten.
This is on the 29th.
Afghanistan, nine were killed.
Iraq, ten were killed.
And these are all different attacks.
Let's see if I can do some math here.
Starting, let's go back one, two, three, four.
Let's go back five days.
How many people were killed by Muslims?
Let's add them.
Let's see if I can add this in my head.
There's 16, what's 16 and 7?
23, 24, 34. 43, 53, 58, 59, 61, 62, 63, 65, 66, 76, 80, if I counted right, 83. 83 people killed since the 28th of September.
That we know of.
That we know of.
That we know of, yeah.
So we have this headline story coming out of Las Vegas that over 50 people now were killed by a guy that may have been a Muslim.
Big news.
Hot news.
We have 80-some people that have been slaughtered all over the planet.
Nobody's talking about it but us.
No wonder they hate the Internet.
And the thing about this, Cheryl, is that the overwhelming majority of these victims...
We're not white people.
We're what the Marxists call people of color.
I thought liberals cared about people of color.
Apparently they don't.
At least not here.
I mean, other countries, that is their color, but they don't care here.
They try to make it a racist thing when it's not.
It is not a racist thing, except maybe in this Las Vegas thing, we don't know.
But what we do know is that...
This has happened.
And we have to take all things to account.
They don't count everyone that has been killed in similar situations or the isolated ones.
And it seems like to me, I've learned one thing, and that is that they have these cells.
These cells of people that it's not like one great big thing.
They chip away.
Chip, chip, chip.
Eventually, It will probably get to a really big thing.
But right now, it's chipping away, and people should be warned that this is an ongoing thing.
It is not going to stop.
It's wishing it won't go away.
It's something that is here, and it is going to stay here and probably get much, much worse very quickly because if you roll a stone downhill, at first it goes slowly.
It picks up momentum.
And that's what's going to happen with this, in my opinion.
And if you get in front of that stone and try to stop it, you're going to get scorched.
That's right.
Somebody in the chat group wonders where you are.
Cheryl's in a bookstore, Barnes& Noble, in a shopping center.
And the reason they ask is because there's a guy behind you who was stopping and listening to what you were saying.
So I guess he's in on the conversation.
I think he's got a cross on his shirt.
I don't know if you see him or not.
So I'm hoping he's in agreement with us.
I don't know.
Now here's another story that I found this kind of telling about what I call on the far left.
CBS legal executive says no sympathy for Vegas because country music fans are often Republicans.
That's kind of what we talked about before.
I'd like to bop him in the head.
Pop him upside the head?
That is so cruel and ambitious.
Would he say that with any other group?
No, he probably wouldn't.
Because now the thing is, if you were any color at all, it seems to be that they want to make something out of it.
It's not...
It's not that we're all human beings and we should love one another.
God made us all.
It's not a matter...
I'll tell you one thing that is going on in Texas, and that is reverse discrimination and getting hired for jobs.
That is actually something that happens.
And it's not against just white people only.
It's also against Hispanic people.
I just don't understand what is going on with that situation.
It's something that is so ridiculous, why we should try to dislike one another.
I'm a people person.
I love people, and it doesn't matter to me what color that they are.
What has that got to factor into it?
It's the person themselves that matter, not what color you are.
My gosh, God made all of us, and he made us different because he loves us.
It doesn't matter.
That's just an outside thing.
It matters what's on the inside and the heart.
That's what matters.
Yeah, I say sometimes on Facebook that I'm pro-everybody.
They say, are you pro-white?
Say, yes, I am.
But then again, I'm pro-everybody.
The problem is, somehow people got...
Got this idea, particularly white people, that there's something wrong about being white, or if you're pro-white, you must be anti-everybody else.
I think white people need to stand up for themselves.
Now, that doesn't mean that we should put down anyone else or hate anybody else, but yeah, we should stand up for ourselves as well.
I think the biblical precept is, you know, that you do need to love yourself as well as others, not just love others.
And I think there's a reason for that.
So here's what the story says.
A top legal executive at CBS, Haley Geftman Gold, said she is not even sympathetic for the victims of the shooting at a country music festival in Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas Sunday night.
Okay, now, to put this in context, we all remember the shooting in Charleston, South Carolina, where that case goes into a black church and shoots people up and kills nine of them.
There was an executive at CBS or Fox News, or anywhere, who said, I have no sympathy whatsoever for those victims in Charleston, South Carolina, because they're Democrats.
There would be a media firestorm.
You never hear the end of it.
Oh, you better believe it.
So where is the media firestorm?
Yeah, where is it?
Where is it on a lot of things is what I want to know.
Where is it on Hillary Clinton?
Where is it on Benghazi?
I mean, I could make a long, long list.
And it would just, I mean, my gosh, where are they?
They are supposed to be a fair, a fair group of people that report exact news.
But you know what they are?
They're no different, these tabloids.
I really, truly believe that.
They're like big, giant, mainstream tabloids.
Or worse.
Or worse.
They take fictitious things, they put it out there for the public, they don't recount and they don't try to make up amends when they do false things.
And people are naive enough to believe them.
That's the sad, sad part.
So many people don't look for things to find out the true facts.
And they go just by what they hear.
Faith comes by hearing.
Very sad.
The story says, here's a quote.
If they wouldn't do anything when children were murdered, I have no hope that repugs.
Speaking of Republicans, I guess.
We'll ever do the right thing.
I'm actually not even sympathetic because country music fans are often Republican gun-toters.
They better be glad that everybody doesn't tote a gun and everybody doesn't lose control of themselves like this person did.
Because there would be a lot of trouble.
The only thing is we have to think of the future.
We have to think of other people and also realize that that would be just down the UN's critique to step in here with NATO and all of their troops and make martial law.
I'm telling you, this is really, really something that they want to do is cause some type of civil war so that these things can happen.
It's just ridiculous of how...
So many people don't realize some of these things.
They get sucked into a make-believe world that the media has brought up, and they believe it and act on it.
It's sad.
It really upsets me to an extent that so many people are just blinded by the media.
Faith comes by hearing, and we believe it, and then we act out on it.
Correct.
Now, about CNN, MSNBC being worse than tabloids, the thing about tabloids is a lot of people know it's fake news.
They don't take it seriously.
And it's not just the news media.
It's the educational system, the way they present history.
It's fake.
It just isn't true.
I mean, they tell truth, but they leave out so many things that it's lying by omission.
Correct.
Let's change gears.
You were right smack in the middle of the flood down in Texas.
How'd that go?
Give us your account of that.
Oh my gosh.
Well, let's just say it was quite unusual.
Still is.
There are so many places that you don't hear now that were absolutely devastated.
Smaller places like Port Aransas and different ones that If you didn't know better, you'd think it was Puerto Rico.
Well, the video you put on Facebook, did you take that video?
Was that your video?
I sent some videos.
Okay, I just got the one where people dump furniture out by the curb.
I did another one, too, of the water coming down, and it hadn't even gotten as high as what it was.
By the time I tried to take my truck out, A small truck.
By the time I had and tried to get back to the house, the water was so high that then we had to be taken out by boat.
And some of it, I mean, we did have 50 inches of rain, but also from the dam being let out like it did.
Were you taken out by boat?
Sir?
Were you taken out by boat?
Yes.
Wow.
My sister's house, thinking I'd be safe because the water had been coming up where I live, took what I had down there, and then most of all that got ruined, too.
So, yes, we had to be taken out by boat.
And it was, I think, besides watching everything be ruined, it had some positive things, though.
I always looked at the positive.
The positive was that it didn't matter if you were Republicans, Democrats, liberals, conservatives, that everyone helped one another, and so many people, even from other states, came.
But even in this state, we just pulled together.
There was no difference in it, and that's the way it should be.
No difference of color.
No difference of what a political party you can agree or disagree.
There's some things you need to stand solid on.
And this was one of those things.
You need to stay solid and grounded and know to care for one another.
That's what it comes down to.
Showing that you care about each other.
So whether it was a flood situation, an ISIS situation.
A Antifa situation, no matter what, you pull together.
Because that's what makes us strong.
I know I always say we're stronger together, and I really mean that.
A cord can't be broken easily if it's a lot of us together.
Because then you have strength.
But when it's not...
You can be taken apart.
Right now, we're being fractured in so many ways.
So we can be taken apart.
What we need to realize is that even with the flood, it doesn't really matter.
That stuff is just things you can replace.
But people and people helping people, that is something that is pure gold.
And that's what we had, this gold, pure gold.
And it's still pretty good.
It feels nice.
Yeah, and you don't know, you truly don't know somebody's character until they get the pressure put on them.
True.
And it's a natural disaster like that that you find out what people really think.
Now, my understanding was that there was some, we're down to five minutes, by the way, that there was some looting.
Did you see any of that?
I heard about it.
I saw pictures of it.
As far as that, there were some places over near, at a different mall, that people were going to collect other ones and take them out by boat, and when they got on there, they would take what they had.
They'd take what they had, and that says a lot for their character, too.
That is a horrible position to put people in.
That's more than even looting.
That is taking what little someone has when they're trying to be rescued and taking that from them.
So that hurts even worse than losing everything.
So they were stealing from the victims.
Who was doing the stealing?
They never caught them.
They would just go with their boat, supposed to be in a rescue situation, and take what money or whatever they had.
Pretending that they were going to help them, but instead they stole their stuff.
Correct.
That story I've never heard.
But they did that, and they would loot.
But because this is Texas, there were people out there with their rifles.
So, you know, if you steal from Texas, you better be willing to pay the penalty.
That's all I can say.
Yeah, you know, if the Texans weren't armed, things would have been much worse.
People say, well, look at this thing in Las Vegas, that's why we need to take away guns.
But they don't look at Texas and say, you know, there could have been far more than 50 people killed, but they weren't because decent citizens have firearms.
Well, here's another point, too.
Bad people are always going to find a firearm.
Bad people will.
So what does that leave the good people who could protect themselves?
Without anything.
That's where it leaves them.
So as far as, and besides that, it's not the rifle or the handgun or anything that does this.
It's a person that is holding it.
That piece of metal does not have a life of its own.
The person that handles it is the one.
So just remember.
Anyone who tries to take your gun, remember, that is our Second Amendment.
And we have the right to bear arms and protect ourselves.
Now, like I said, bad people are going to find those weapons.
And where would that leave us if we didn't have any?
Just like Australia.
That's where.
Yeah, and like we saw earlier, there were several Muslim attacks all over the planet.
In France, in England, those people aren't armed.
They can't defend themselves.
That's right.
So what do they do?
Well, some of them, they die.
And some of them, you know, they're maimed for life.
But those bad guys know that they're not armed.
They know that.
But if they thought, you know, this guy's got a gun, I think maybe I'm not going to shoot him.
I guarantee if that guy in Las Vegas knew there was any possibility he could be taken out, he probably wouldn't have done that.
So there's that check and balance that always has to be in place.
And think of France.
I mean, have you watched their videos where they're telling people when they hear shots to go run and hide?
I mean, that's everybody.
They don't have their weapons, so all they have is an alternative of running and hiding.
Well, you know, that's not right.
It's not right for any place to have to run and hide.
You should be able to defend yourself and your property.
Okay.
Cheryl Lynn Fowers, thanks so much.
Anthony Johnson was going to be here, but because he's a chairman of the Republican Party in his county down in Tennessee, Anderson County, He had some kind of party obligation that came up, and he apologized profusely for not being here, but he will be back in his spot next Monday.
And I thank you so much for coming in at the very last minute and standing in for him.
I appreciate that very much.
I loved it.
Anything else before we go?
Just to say, be kind to one another.
Think about those kind of things.
Life is too short.
It's just too, too short.
And tell people that you love them when you have the chance to.
Because like those people, they didn't get a chance.
And they didn't have it at 9-11 either.
Our fallen warriors, they don't have a chance to say goodbye or they love someone.
So always tell people how much you care for them.
Okay, well, thanks so much.
Now, to the folks who are watching by stream, we're going to leave the stream on for at least another two hours because after Cheryl's gone at the top of the hour, 7 o'clock, I'm going to be interviewed by somebody for two hours.
So I'll be here until 9 o'clock.
So if you're watching the stream, you're going to have to look at me for another two hours.
