Welcome back to Shots Fired.
Well, we're almost at the end of May, which means that we're slowly, actually pretty quickly, approaching Pride Month.
I can't even say those words, sadly, because, you know, it's sort of Taken this word pride and inverted it and corrupted it.
And now I think of pride, I just automatically think of LGBTQIA Nazis.
But yes, we're quickly approaching Pride Month.
The entire month they get the whole month of June.
And they also get other weeks throughout the year too, but they at least get this whole month of June.
And people are up in arms about it.
Some are going crazy because they want further restrictions on Pride Week or Pride Month at schools.
And other teachers and parents and students who are full LGBTQIA want to push it even further and have Pride Month spill into Pride three months and then Pride year.
Well, we're going to talk about some of these issues that are happening in Pride Month this week with our next guest, Kaylee Layton.
Kaylee Layton is the host of What's Your Point?
She's a political commentator and reporter, and it's good to have her here.
And she's pretty fired up about Pride Month.
Welcome to Shots Fired.
How are you?
I'm great.
How are you doing?
I'm doing good, but it's just unfortunate that, you know, I love the month of May and I love summer, but, you know, I hate this sort of this oncoming doom that we have that's Pride Month.
And you know what's also interesting is that I found out I don't have school-age kids right now, but what I found out is that the week after spring break is also a pride week in most schools around the country, which I find really interesting because during that whole week of spring break, usually kids are with their families, they're spending time with their parents, probably doing more family-oriented and wholesome things.
And then immediately after they get back from spring break, they get hit with this Pride Week.
It's like, let's take out all that good family value programming and erase it and dump on some extra Pride LGBTQ grooming programming right after that.
It's a shame that school and Pride are even in the same sentence.
And I think...
It's it's gross to think about.
I mean, you know, they started off with just wanting like to be recognized and then nothing is ever good enough.
And so with this constantly being pushed more and more and more and it being in schools.
And it's just, you can't put your kids in public school these days.
The fact that they feel the need to do that instead of teaching us life skills in school to begin with.
I mean, this was not happening to me when I was in elementary school about 15 years ago.
And to watch this all play out, having a 10-month-old daughter of my own, I can't put her in school.
I'm already, of course, planning to homeschool.
Yeah, you're planning on homeschooling, right?
I mean, I think anyone would be pretty crazy to literally put their children in a school now, knowing what they know is being taught to them.
It's all just a grooming and sexualization agenda.
They're really, it's almost like arithmetic, reading, etc., is an afterthought at this point.
And the main curriculum is indoctrinating them into be sexualized, radical leftist activists.
Yeah.
And even within the, you know, core curriculums, like you said, reading and math and all of that, all of that, if they're even learning that, has to also have the LGBTQ agenda moved into it, which is why we have the books that are being read to them in schools and the math problems that are asking them the silliest and just dumbest stuff.
How many genders are there?
5,600.
Exactly.
And I mean, there's not even a right answer to that, except two.
And they just, they can't stick to their story.
So even when they're trying to indoctrinate these kids, it's like they can't even get their story straight.
And that's why it's all getting jumbled up.
And it's just, it's a mess.
It's truly a mess.
Yeah.
Not to mention, you know, we've never been more behind Statistically, kids have never been more behind in their math, in their reading level.
I mean, they're like years behind what they should be right now, which never was the case before.
That's pretty sad in the U.S. So, right.
So in Encinitas, California, there was a board meeting this week, a school board meeting, that thankfully was really packed by parents, furious parents, Because they found out that sixth graders, I believe fifth or sixth graders, were instructed and tasked to read a book to kindergartners.
And the title of the book was My Shadow is Pink.
My Shadow is Pink.
And it was all about a toddler basically encouraging a toddler to try on different genders and explore his sexuality, explore transgenderism, etc., And so, of course, parents at this board meeting were furious.
Have you looked into this book at all?
What is it?
My Shadow is Pink?
My Shadow is Purple?
Anything but what they were born to be.
And it's just one of the many books that are teaching kids, like, to be...
Pretty much just explore whatever you want, not just be comfortable in your own skin.
I remember being in school and them teaching us, you know, be happy with who you are, but now that's not the case in schools.
And you mentioned that they had fifth graders reading this to kindergartners and For some reason, it makes my stomach turn, of course, anyways, but that makes my stomach turn more because they're having the kids participate in indoctrinating the other kids.
That's a big issue that I think we're gonna start seeing more.
It's like, they're getting called out, the teachers are getting called out for the behavior that they're exhibiting on kids, but now they've pushed it to a point where they're convincing the kids to push it on younger kids, and that is disgusting.
Yeah, it kind of reminds me of predators, sexual predators, how they often, they try to make like child porn and they have the kids with each other, right?
And they videotape it and they try to have the kids complicit in these criminal acts.
And same with them.
It's like they're teaching kids to be groomers themselves, to sexually groom younger children and be complicit in this criminal activity.
It's just so disgusting and egregious.
Absolutely.
And it started with them creating, like, those Pride kid clothes.
You know, I found some in Target.
And I thought that 2023 was going to be kind of like the turnaround because that was when Target blew up and got called out for their kids' clothes that were in the Pride section.
And a lot of people got so angry about that because they were saying, oh, those weren't kids' clothes.
But, you know, in one of the videos that I made, I held up a baby onesie that had Pride, like...
Logos and stuff on it and this wasn't happening even when Pride Month was first introduced and your everyday average person needs to start noticing that the limit is going to keep getting pushed more and more because they constantly get away with like a little bit more every single year.
And like you said in the beginning, this isn't a pride month anymore.
It's pride year all around.
And it's gross to think about because, you know, mothers aren't getting mother year.
Of course, mothers shouldn't be just appreciated for one day out of the year.
It should be 365 days.
But pride month is an abomination and it should not be, it shouldn't even have a month in my opinion.
Exactly.
And the fact that it's in schools and you really can't avoid it, you know, kids can't really opt out of that because if you do, on some level, you'd probably be considered an outsider or, you know, homophobe or transphobe or something.
But most of the time, too, it's not even being told to the parents to give them an opportunity to opt out their children.
I mean, it's just so widespread.
They're going to hear about this one way or the other, really being stuck down their throat.
Yeah, parents need to really wake up and realize that when they start losing the control, honestly, that's when it gets to a point where we're too late.
It's teachers and the superintendents and just the school boards in general who are taking away these, like...
have control over their kids and make sure that they're in the middle of what their kids are learning.
And if a parent doesn't see that they can't go to their kid's school and be like, I don't want my kid to learn this stuff.
And the school board has a problem with it.
That should raise one of the biggest red flags as a mom or a dad.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, every one of these books are so sick in the head.
And I've even I've discovered that some some schools, some public schools are even administering gender transition hormones to kids outside of their parents permission whatsoever.
I mean, The fact that they're now being used to give their children hormones without their parents knowing to start the process of transitioning is just so satanic and disgusting.
That's heartbreaking to hear.
I heard rumors about that, and that's just, you know, nurses in schools these days, we used to laugh about how, you know, they'd give you ibuprofen for everything.
Right.
Now they're kind of stepping into a red zone where they're just doing a little bit too much, and that's honestly heartbreaking because I feel like there are parents out there who don't even know this is going on within some schools.
Yeah, yeah.
In fact, so this is Seattle for Seattle.
Seattle Public Schools now offering hormone therapy to children in their school.
This is just so sad.
It's just like the parents don't even have a chance.
That's why if you're a parent, Who is in the know?
And you think, well, I'm still going to send them to public school because I can make a difference at home.
I will be on the lookout.
I'll have my head on a swivel for all these things.
You won't really have your head on a swivel because there's no opportunity to.
They will do things behind your back without you even knowing and having an opportunity to opt out or, you know, not have your child read this or that book, etc.
And most of the stuff is hidden from parents' purview.
And it's on purpose.
I mean, it's intentionally hidden from parents.
So they can't intervene.
Absolutely.
And kids are one of the most vulnerable in our society.
And, you know, the fact that they're being targeted, it creates this issue where, you know, we're targeting them.
Not we.
They're targeting them when they're little.
And then by the time they've grown up with all of this going on around them, then it's almost like they're just set in stone and they can't be changed.
And that's what they grew up with their entire life.
And it's scary because we know how much...
You know, evil can, like, grasp onto you.
And it's just...
Sometimes I just have no words because of how sad and scary it is to be a mom, watch this play out as just an American citizen, and it breaks my heart.
Yeah, it does.
Luckily, some individuals and governors are doing something about this.
It's pretty cool, actually.
Governor Ron DeSantis of Florida decided this week that he's actually going to be banning rainbow flags in many parts of Florida.
So that's pretty cool.
He's going to be banning rainbow flags on Florida bridges ahead of Pride Month.
Sunshine Skyway Bridge, especially, will instead be lit up with red, white and blue to mark the governor's latest policy, Freedom Summer.
So no more no more rainbow colors on Florida bridges.
That's pretty cool, right?
That's awesome.
And that's one of the reasons I love Florida.
I think we need to see that in, you know, at least half the states.
All the states that are red should be pushing to do that.
Yes.
And kind of fight back.
Because if you're not fighting back and doing things like blocking out the colors, making sure this stuff isn't advertised in Windows, all of that, then you're kind of just sitting by and letting it go.
Even if you say you don't agree with it, there's nothing you can, like, well, there's a lot you can do that you just have to act on.
You can't just sit back and be compliant with this type of behavior, and I think DeSantis is doing a good job with blocking those.
I think so, too.
And it's just those are the kinds of things that symbolically that, you know, show that you are somebody you are a representative that cares about this, that realizes it's a big deal for a lot of people.
I don't really want to be driving and seeing this rainbow bridge and have to explain that to my children.
Or just see it flaunted in my face.
So if you're a representative in any state, but especially a red state, you know, really you should follow suit.
This should be a no-brainer.
And it's always DeSantis that's leading the charge with these things.
It really is, to be honest.
And, you know, I grew up in Texas.
Right now I'm in California, but I grew up in Texas for the last 24 years of my life.
And we need to see people like Abbott do this, people like, you know, Tennessee.
Tennessee has been really good recently about passing anti-LGBTQ legislation a lot.
And so if they can really reflect on what DeSantis is going to do in this next month to You know, kind of cancel Pride Month, then the more states that get involved, the more I think they'll band together and feel powerful.
Because I know that, unfortunately, sometimes the Republican Party is too afraid of making the first move because they don't want to have the back.
Well, the backlash is going to come.
Yeah, literally.
And so they really need to wake up because, you know, I want to see the good in 2023 with the backlash that Target got.
And really use that in 2024 and beyond to, you know, basically tell the LGBTQ community that we're not going to put up with their crap.
Yeah, exactly.
Because they are a mafia.
I mean, they act in lockstep.
They're very heavily funded, very heavily organized.
They act exactly as a mafia.
And so we need to be more powerful.
Yeah, so now this is interesting to pivot a little bit.
Poisoning pregnant women with abortion-inducing drugs could soon be a felony under a new red state bill.
Now this is interesting.
Louisiana House of Representatives advanced a bill on Tuesday night that criminalizes abortion coerced by means and fraud and also makes it illegal to possess two abortion drugs without a valid prescription.
I think this is really cool.
This bill, which now heads to the state Senate, would penalize coercers with fines between 50,000 to 100,000, 10 to 20 years imprisonment, who prey on an unsuspecting pregnant mother without her knowledge or consent, but also amends various abortion criminal laws to add to the crime of attempted abortion.
And of course, this bill has drawn the anger of pro-abortion groups Like Vice President Kamala Harris, who said the legislation was absolutely unconscionable.
Why?
Why would that be absolutely unconscionable?
Why?
This should be like a no-brainer.
What do you think about that?
So both sides should be on the same page on this issue, because when I was reading about this bill, it was named after a lady whose estranged husband basically slipped abortion pills in her drink for seven days, and thankfully she had her daughter, her daughter, safe.
I can't believe she survived that.
Honestly, honestly, how did he get a hold of these to begin with?
Two, why...
I mean, obviously he was crazy, and they didn't really deep dive into that, but, I mean, it is scary to be a pregnant woman in America, because you would think that the left would see this as kind of like a roofie situation.
You know, women shouldn't be having stuff put in their drinks to begin with, so why are they drawing the line at abortion pills?
And...
They're not really seeing that, like, type of comparison, and that was one of the things that really resonated me when I was first reading that.
And they should be viewing it as that same type of issue, and just how they could think that, or how specifically Kamala Harris, the Vice President of the United States, Just pass that by and think that, you know, oh, it's okay because it's an abortion issue.
You know, let's just allow women to continue to be drugged and unknowingly taking these medications that not only cause abortions, but we all know that abortion medication or any type of abortion has long-term physical and mental side effects, short-term mental and physical side effects, and It's one of those issues that you see the left and you're like, how do you not see what they're trying to do?
And you're ignoring all of the serious implications of that.
It blows my mind.
It blows my mind, too.
And what's crazy is I did a little research recently, and I discovered that Planned Parenthood and their websites, they offer the abortion pill, kind of like almost a drive-through, but even worse, it's a mail-in.
So they give you an abortion pill.
All you have to do is like a little phone call or a video session, a video phone call with a doctor over at Planned Parenthood.
To get approved.
And then they will send you these abortion pills in the mail because, of course, this is in response to certain states banning abortion after the heartbeat, after six weeks.
So they said, well, how do we have a solution that's going to help all these women who are pregnant and want to end their pregnancy in other states?
Well, they'll just do mail-in abortion pills.
And I ended up talking to a woman that works at a clinic that's a pro-life clinic to help women through deciding Abortion versus, you know, carrying their baby to term.
And she said that it's that is so it's so dangerous.
First of all, that pill in general, the abortion pill, is really, really dangerous for women.
They should be very closely monitored the whole time if they take it at all.
But the fact that they're just giving them pills and then kind of sending them to the wolves and no one's there to monitor them, they don't know the side effects, they're not even in the same state as them, and they're probably afraid to go to a doctor if anything goes wrong in their state because they're afraid there might be criminalized because it's banned in certain states.
That is just a recipe for a lot of women to have Major issues.
She says that she's seen women before in this state and they've had to have hysterectomies, major bleeding.
Some have died because this is a really, really dangerous pill.
It's not just a pill like a COVID pill or something else that's going to help you with the flu.
This is an abortion pill and it's very, very serious, but they're just sending it through the mail and throwing them to the wolves afterwards.
How crazy is that?
How dangerous is that?
It's so hypocritical because their BS signs that they hold at their protest say free, safe, legal, we want women, we want to protect women.
Protect women.
Yeah, they don't want to address the fact of what happens behind closed doors after these drugs are administered.
Correct me if I'm wrong.
It was Abby Johnson who made the documentary about how she was formerly working at Planned Parenthood.
And there was a scene in that movie where it was either her or somebody who had been administered the pill.
And they go through the process of what happens after that pill is taken.
You know, severe bleeding.
You have to pass the baby.
There are so many, like, physical things that happen to your body.
You're in severe pain.
You're on the ground.
Right.
Even with other women, you know, telling their personal stories online about what it's like to take this pill.
And for the left to be, for just, you know, all the women on the left to just be, well, we care about women and we want to protect them.
This is creating lifelong damage on their bodies, on their minds, that for some reason they don't want to address.
And I would really, really like to see at least one person on the left be faced with this head on and have an answer to like why they're okay with women going through this.
Exactly.
That would be actually a great thing to just put them on the stand like that and ask them that because you cannot be for women and for protecting women if you believe that this is a good thing to just have even more easier access to these very dangerous abortion pills and then they're unsupervised, unattended, in another state when they're taking them and they just kind of wash their hands with them afterwards.
I mean, come on.
It's so dangerous and The hypocrisy is just so on display with things like this.
This is why, you know, the left, if people actually had a brain, if women had a brain, they would realize that nothing that the left says is honest, nothing that they say is true.
They don't.
Everything that they say when they say they protect women or they protect black people or minorities, But then they have pushed these policies and ideologies.
It's exactly the opposite of protecting.
It's throwing them to the wolves.
It's corrupting them.
It's giving them an early death.
It seems as if, you know, they're making them out to be a victim so much mentally, just manipulating them so that they feel like they need to rely on these people.
I mean, that's what the government's doing to us.
They're giving us problems and then giving us the solutions to the problems.
Right.
And convincing us that we need to rely on them when that's not the case.
And making, you know, minorities and even blacks feel like they're just victims in this entire society.
Scenario that is the government, it blows my mind.
And we can deep dive into the whole...
I don't remember if it was the governor or mayor or somebody who was saying that blacks don't know how to use computers.
And it's like, how do they see this?
And then they call us racist.
We're trying to help them escape this oppression that the left is convincing them they have.
Yeah, it does to me too.
Well, it's been great going down these rabbit holes with you.
Anything, any last final thoughts on the abortion issue or Pride Month coming up before we close out?
With Pride Month coming up, I'm very interested.
I put out a little statement maybe last week about how I'm interested to see.
Unfortunately, I won't be in California this time for Pride Month.
Unfortunately or fortunately?
Fortunately, to be honest.
Probably a good idea, yeah.
Unfortunately for content making.
Yeah, true.
How, you know, a red state addresses this situation, not just in Target, but pretty much every other store I saw that PetSmart already came out with a pride section for dogs.
So that's a whole deep dive we could take another day.
Yeah, let's get these dogs to try on a different gender and, you know, start chest feeding.
Exactly.
Oh gosh.
Oh man, that's crazy.
But I am interested to see overall what happens this next month.
Yeah, me too.
Probably riots everywhere.

*BOOM* Welcome back to Shots Fired.
Well, in this day and age that we live in, and especially amongst more liberal people and parents, and if you're living in a more liberal district or city, a lot of people have sort of come to the conclusion that they think at this point that weed, marijuana, whether it's medical or not, but marijuana is kind of harmless, especially for teenagers or young adults.
It's innocuous.
It's not a big major drug anymore.
And I think a lot of people have been sort of desensitized to marijuana in general.
But there's a new study that just came out, which is pretty eye-opening.
And it talks about that kids who use marijuana are evidently 11 times more likely to develop a psychotic disorder versus kids and young adults who have not smoked marijuana.
And that's pretty scary for...
Kids and parents who believe that marijuana is just a harmless drug.
So here to talk about this and delve into this study and the ramifications of it even more is our favorite doctor, Dr.
Mark Sherwood, Sherwood.tv.
Always great to have you on.
You're such a wealth of knowledge in so many different areas.
But this is a real big concern, especially for kids and for teens who think that marijuana is kind of no big deal at this point in this day and age that we live in.
Yeah, Dan, it's huge because I think we've set the tone, haven't we, as a nation by legalizing it?
Legalizing it.
Merit severity.
I mean, you look around, even in my own home state, marijuana is legalized.
I remember the first time I ever saw that was in California.
I was on Malibu Beach or wherever that was, or whatever the beach is with the big workout facility.
I was right there, and I looked over and I saw a sign that said, the doctor is in, and the sign was green.
A person with a green jumpsuit on.
And I didn't know what that was.
And it was shocking.
I thought, we are in a nation that's legalizing this.
So we made it normal.
And now, many, many young people using this.
And that same study showed an 11-fold increase in these psychotic sort of episodes.
But getting down to that still deeper, they found that it was a 27-fold increase of those that actually had visited the ER. So you're talking one in four.
So 27-fold increase in kids or youth or whatever who had consistently used marijuana in psychotic episodes in general?
Yeah, and ended up in the ER. Wow.
This is a bad deal because kids today, it's so available.
Again, we minimize the severity of it.
We've made it available all the time, and we've kind of put this...
Blank it over.
Like, it's no harm, no foul.
But it is harm, and it is foul.
And I'll tell you one thing else that a lot of people don't know.
We do a lot of genetics testing, and I think this is very, very important for parents and very important people to know.
There's a small percentage of the population, and again, I can't go into the way God made us all, but there's a small percentage that on these opioid receptors that receive that marijuana, There is some of the population that have a hyperreceptivity, which creates psychosis much more easy.
So there's a high level of addiction component there, too.
And I know for a fact, I've seen this happen in patient base here.
There was a person who was an adult.
He was a patient.
He smoked marijuana.
That's what he did to sleep.
Well, he actually ended up smoking with his son.
I mean, I don't question his parenting abilities, but I would question his abilities.
A lot of parents apparently do that, too.
I've heard of that.
Shocking, man.
And let's get high together.
What do you think, son?
I mean, that seems so bizarre to me.
And this particular...
That event led to something that was almost deadly.
The son had a psychosis attack and was out walking in front of moving cars.
And that's a real deal.
Now, they stopped him, caught him, tackled him and all that stuff, but this is a bad situation right now that we have brewing across this country.
It's really bad and scary, again, because of the feeling that it's normal and that it's just, you know, it's not really considered a gateway drug anymore.
Would you, as a doctor, would you consider this still a gateway drug?
I would.
Anything that is neurotoxic or neuroimpediment-wise, I would put it as a gateway drug because, look, Dani, it's escaping reality.
Yeah.
And any time you try to escape reality rather than deal with reality, And that's the big drama point right there.
Escaping reality, we do that through various mechanisms.
And what do we do?
Well, we can escape it through chasing dopamine, which would be like maybe a working out or maybe even food.
That's another drug, right?
We could chase it through addiction to pornography.
We could chase it to addiction to business.
We can chase it with drugs and alcohol.
And it's just, it's pulling us out of the sort of the thing and times we need to look at handling our business, handling the stress, handling life.
Nobody said life's going to be fair, man.
Nobody said it's going to be easy.
And it's not.
I mean, you know that.
It's not easy.
It's a big old bucket of uncertainty every day.
Yep.
But how you deal with that...
Puts in a person the opportunity to become resilient and strength to build that character.
And I'm concerned.
I'm not trying to be over-dramatizing with this, but I'm concerned about this opening the door to the lack of willingness to even try to deal with life.
That's absolutely true because when we've now at this point, we've pushed marijuana on kids and young adults.
We've pushed video games and porn and technology, you know, smartphones and everything.
So, you know, what does that do?
It creates a generation of young people, especially young boys who typically have a drive, you know, a drive to achieve and compete in the world and accomplish in the world, to just stay home and do nothing, play video games, watch porn, be stuck to them and glued to their tablets.
This generation also, the younger generation, is the first generation that's like the highest rate of kids that are still living with their parents past age 30.
And that don't have jobs or that don't own homes.
So you're creating sort of this like impotent generation that aren't really doing things positive in the world.
They're not contributing to the world.
They're just at home stuck in escapism all day long.
I agree.
And you're also seeing the IQ drop for the first time in history.
I mean, that study's been out for a while and it kind of blows my mind.
But you mentioned something very key, a gateway a moment ago, and I think it's relevant to sort of discuss what it might gateway into that we didn't talk about.
We hear a lot about the border crisis, you know, and the fentanyl problem.
Well, that is the next drug up the line.
That's what happens.
You know, you end up taking things like that when you open the door to one, you open the door to another.
It's an area of neurotoxicity.
I call it neuroescape-ism, if you will, that we need to really watch out for because we as Americans, we've been really good at sort of handling problems.
And the more we get, we don't handle problems like this and you don't deal with life and you don't know how to work.
The whole idea of America goes down the toilet.
And you mentioned the kids living at home with their parents.
When it's 18 or when you're out of college, it's time to move on.
And if you don't work, you don't eat.
Or you end up paying rent.
But we've got them hanging around the house and just sitting around all day.
And it's a problem.
I think anybody out there that's listening right now, as a general rule, that owns a business and has for several years have seen the change in the workforce.
Yes.
Think about this as it goes into the workforce.
There is a lot of things now that are protected.
So if a person comes in and they've been smoking marijuana, can you fire them or not?
Think about this for a moment.
Can you do that?
And it's not just a clear red line anymore.
It's gray.
Yeah, that's true.
You know, I didn't know about that.
If you're sort of, it's a touchy subject that you can't fire somebody that's been smoking marijuana or that smells like marijuana.
But, you know, they're just wanting to give excuses for everybody now.
And it makes them lazy.
It makes them, you know, really kills their ambition.
There's also this new phenomenon.
phrase called time blindness.
I don't know if you've heard of it, time blindness for the younger generation.
And instead of people being late and having there be consequences for people being late to job interviews, late to work, late to important engagements.
No, you're not late or irresponsible.
You just have something called time blindness and it's supposed to be excused.
They're supposed to have a pass given to them by employers, by teachers, etc.
I mean, how is that teaching positive life skills when they get a pass for everything?
It's not.
And, you know, I like the term time blindness.
I have heard of that.
And we've experienced it, too.
You know, in a in a practice like ours, it doesn't happen very much.
But there are times where people might show up 30 minutes late.
I'm thinking to myself, OK, I'll spend about two minutes with you, too.
Yeah.
Pay for it, right?
You know, because it doesn't make any sense.
But the fascinating thing that we have here is we have this generation that's created.
And I think this study is so significant because we're talking about young people here.
Yeah.
Which is our next generation.
This is not the workforce now.
This is the next generation.
And what people don't understand, I've watched a lot of people do this in my time as a naturopathic doctor here at the Functional Medical Institute with my wife, you know.
People that have used marijuana, even under the legalized, I have pain card, or I have anxiety card, or I need to sleep card.
And you can get it really easy now.
It's not hard.
And it's so available in various forms, and it's not the same as it was.
It's been cultivated in a way where the tetrahydrocannabidiol, or the THC, has been elevated to the point where it was, so you can actually have more neurotoxicity now than you forever could have before.
But I have seen this over time flatline a person's neurotransmitters, just like a benzodiazepine would.
And so they become where they can't sleep.
They can't exist without it, and so we're creating not just a usage to deal with pain, and not just even recreational usage.
We're talking an addiction.
And what is that doing to the person?
We're still seeing bouts of crazy, bonkers behavior today, as a general rule.
You add on top of it the neurotoxicity and the tendency of marijuana, as we see in this study, to be associated with more psychosis events.
I mean, there's no telling where this will lead.
I dread to think about the potentials.
Yeah, exactly.
Because these are our supposed future leaders, future representatives, future workforce, those who are supposed to be fighting for our country when there's threats, you know, future military.
I mean, it's really just all on a decline.
And guess what, though?
That's by design.
It was designed to do this to further this agenda of weakening our youth and weakening our country.
Anyone who's addicted to marijuana and to video games and porn, etc., are probably not going to be out on the front lines trying to fight for our country.
They're going to be easily controllable.
Now, you know, I want to make clear that people are listening and saying, well, marijuana is good for pain management.
I am not saying that you cannot use legally prescribed, monitored, doctor-prescribed marijuana for a terminal disease process.
There is There is classic examples of benefit for that, as well as there's classic examples of even children that have seizure disorders.
They've used that before with great effectiveness and great reduction in severity of those seizures.
So there's probably some medicinal usage out there that's okay.
Okay.
A good distinction.
Yeah, it's good.
But usage of this that's surely becoming...
Recreational under the guise of medical need.
That's the problem.
Yeah.
And then, you know, who's to say a person can't go to marijuana shop A who is an adult and end up giving it to a kid B and kid B gives it to kid C. Right.
Because that is like almost the roundabout way of creating drug dealing in our country.
Yeah.
Without having to go through the Mexican cartel.
I mean, it's It's so messed up from the front, back, and the side, top, and bottom.
I don't see a positive behind this story, behind this instance.
One more little tidbit to throw in there.
Our land across our country is being purchased up by Chinese nationals and their affiliates under the idea of purchasing enough to use for farmland for marijuana.
So not only are we losing land, but we're getting this cultivation of marijuana that's becoming massive business across our country.
And now we see for the first time that, you know, I've been on a program that's highlighted this problem, and I thank you for that, is the problem with children and psychosis.
I mean, it is a Pandora's box of problems.
Absolutely.
And, you know, psychotic children who are psychotic are not a positive benefit to our country.
And we need our children strong.
We need our children strong, healthy, alert, awake, not asleep, not addicted to things.
And this is all just part of the design.
So wake up, parents.
Wake up, parents.
And, you know, take heed to studies like this.
Understand what your child is being exposed to at schools, through friends, through the media, and know that, you know, if you want a warrior, you want someone who you want to change this country for the better, it starts with our kids.
Dr.
Mark Sherwood, always so great to have you.
Tell everybody again where they can find you and follow you.
Well, they can go to sherwood.tv forward slash shots fired.
I wanted to go there because I like to know where they come from.
You know, you do such a great job of allowing me to bring forth information like this.
And it's important.
And I want parents to know and people to know that there's ways around We want happy kids.
We want healthy kids.
Happy, healthy family, then the solution rarely is just a drug given by a doctor.
You know, antidepressants, etc.
Usually that's just the band-aid solution.
We want to be naturally, from the inside out, holistically healthy and happy.
So, Dr.
Sherwood, yeah.
All right.
Well, thank you so much for joining us.
As usual, go to his website, sherwood.tv and sherwood.tv slash shots to see all of his incredible products and coaching services.
All right, guys, we'll be right back right after these messages.
Don't go anywhere.
Second thing we can do is drink water.
I mean, you hear me talk about hydrogen water all the time with our little bottles.
Yes.
We have to have water to live.
Our bodies are 65% water, just like the Earth is.
Go figure.
Right.
Wow, does that not give you chills right there to think about that?
Totally, yeah.
When we drink that water, if we can bring hydrogen in there, it can reduce inflammation, it can reduce free radicals, and it can be calm.
Calm and peace to the cells.
So, I don't know how better we can get than those two tips, and we need that more today.
Dan, if we're stuck and just locked into what's next in the news, it's gonna lock us in all right.
It's like locking into a self-imposed prison.
Uh, 100%.
And you have an incredible water, uh, hydration device as well that we can talk about real quick.
I know that you probably have it on your desk right now.
I drink this every day.
This is, you know, forgive me for sounding like an infomercial, but this is the truth, man.
It's on my desk, you know, even before it came alive.
I put water in here about five minutes ago, pushed the button, and this little chamber that's via electrolysis creates hydrogen in here.
And I'll push the button one more time so people can see that.
Really cool.
So cool.
You can see that it puts little bubbles in there.
Really neat like that.
And when I, I'll turn it off and show you, when I pull the lid off, you can hear a little pressure, and I just drink the water.
Yeah, you don't want to be just drinking tap water.
I mean, you want to be, not all water is created equal, right?
I mean, of course we want to be, we want to be hydrating with lots and lots of water as one of your tips, but not all water is necessarily created equal.
No.
Get your water filtered.
You know, Reverse Hot Smokes is my favorite.
There's a lot of little portable filters.
One can do this from a hardware store to put on your fountain or on your pitchers in your house.
You can get an indoor filter system.
Works pretty good.
We have one.
Or you can buy filtered water, too.
But the cool thing about this is when I drink this, it reduces not just the inflammation of the radicals, but it can make myself respond in a younger manner.
That's cool.
Cheers to being younger, older, I guess, I suppose.
But it's really important.
You've got yours, too.
It's important to do the right things that are simple.
I'm a big believer in the KISS principle, keep it simple, silly, you know?
And what we talked about is learning to redefine stress, understand the addiction and stress, getting outside and getting away from it all, and then filling your body with the water, which is life.
All right, guys, that's all the time we've got for today.
