You're listening to the Downbeat on ninety seven to one, The Freak Lucy.
Oh yeah, there's plots of the Southern Sunrise. The downbeat on ninety seven

here, legend man stars, got JJ Jackson sitting right there? Morning,
JJ, How are we doing? Good morning? You watch a movie yesterday?
No? No movie? No movie? You could think about it.
She watched so many movies. Think she loves movies. I watched The Bunch
this weekend. Do you remember the first movie you ever fell in love with?
It led to this mission to tell the world about what movies are quigh
quality in which they aren't. I don't know a specific movie. It was
definitely my daycare days. I'm telling you my daycare days were great, like
when you were in daycare, Muney, like it was like a lot of
these Disney movies. That Lion King Aladin. I think that's where it really
was for me, and then I got older. I think really it was
in college because it was a summer where I was staying. I was in
college by like the summer. I was second summer school and I was there
by myself while my teammates everybody was gone, So I would just go to
the movies by myself, screw it, like I'm gonna go, and then
I love it. I think it was Herbie the love Bug for me with
that VHS player you knows about a thousand dollars. That's one of the weird
that Mary Poppins. Boy, I crushed Mary Poppins. That's a great movie.
Some sink song and dance sick Van Dyke. Yeah, I bet that
holds up the original Mary Poppins. Did you see the one Emily Blunt came
out with me? It's actually really good too. Two they're great. We
talk movies on this show in the station, and we talk sports, we
talk life. It's live local laughs here on the Downbeat on ninety seven,
one of the Freak six to ten each and every morning, we talk news
as well, and we talk news right now in the scuttle butt like you
can say. And now it's toime for the butt. I just had a
few days in a row. I wanted to mix it up, go traditional,
mix it up? In here. What's in the butt? Kevin?
Well, what's brought to you by our new sponsor, Advanced Hair Restoration?
Thank you? Who's it brought to you by Advanced Air Restoration? All right?
Thank you? Might get past it, past the tough one that we'll
have fun, all right. Three officers fired at a sixteen year old student
yesterday because he brought a gun inside a Mesquite school. This is nine am
yesterday morning, Pioneer Technology and Arts Academy in Mesquite. I don't know much
about that, but so student was supported to be holding the firearm in the
school's office and refusing to put it down. Officers arrived. He was alone
in the office, and I guess, just like shaking their holding the guns.
I'll do it, scary, I'll do it, you know, while
trying to negotiate with the student police. Okay, first of all, the
way this article is written, it's from the Dallas Morning News. When I
read it, I went, well, that just kind of skipped a few
details. But obviously they can't get into details like his name. It's underage
kid or whatever. Pioneer Tech and Arts Academy. Yeah, damn, that's
right near my house. Yeah yeah, so while trying to negotiate, I
live in almost Mesquite. That's what I put on my letters. Really your
correspondence, Yeah so you uh, I mean, well, does it say
if that's a it looks like it's a small high school. Probably it looks
like it's a tech school. That is the facade of the school appears to
be attached to some type of strip mall. Okay, So I'll trying to
negotiate with the student. Police said, three officers fired at him. So
negotiating, three officers fired at him. The student then complied, taking into
custody. Police did not say if he was shot, but we do know
that he was in stable condition at the hospital, so it sounds that they
shot him. So one guy is he's all his names Jose Martinez. He's
a parent and his fifteen year old son, Aidan, is a student at
the school, and he said he's driving to work and he got the notification
that the school is on lockdown, so he starts texting his son Aiden.
He said Aiden was there texting his friends because they were all freaking out.
But he said this kid who had the gun was one of Aiden's best friends.
He's just like sitting there going, Okay, one of my son's best
friends is about to shoot up the school. Likes which you're thinking. Yeah,
they didn't give the names of the officers who fired, but one was
an eight year veteran when was a five year veteran, and one was an
officer in training but had multiple years of service and another agency. But the
kid never shot. The kid never shot anyone, but the officers fired at
him three times, So maybe he was about to. Maybe we need that
detective that we had last week to call in. He was incredibly helpful,
very interesting detective man. Yeah, because I don't know where we're at on
the non lethal options. I mean knee kapham Well, no, no,
just non leath, you know, zap him or did we have that foam
foam so then they stick? Yeah, that's our thing. It's very ghostbusters.
I mean, there should be a non lethal options there, or rubber
pellets at least. I don't know why a kid who doesn't shoot. Yes,
I understand if he brings a gun to school, that's a serious threat.
He's holding at least he's holding a lethal option. Yeah, I get
it. You have your lethal option also right there. If you need it,
you can use it. But I would think a non lethal option would
be perfected by now, certainly in a climate that we have with this popping
up so regularly, and there are many times that were the lethal option is
the only option, and yes you should use it, But if he didn't
fire the gun, I would think a non lethal option might be Yeah,
it's just three of them shot. It's so different shot and that tells me
that it was about to go down. It's so different over here in America
as far as the how different the use of lethal forces to compare to other
countries. And I don't know. It's a mindset, it's a culture I
think that we are societally. I bet don't you agree that there's some sense
of bloodlust that we have hunters that I think that by it. There's a
large measure of cops that go through these situations that end up shooting someone and
it probably messes with their brain and affects them for the rest of their lives,
and they have regret. They second guess every decision that they made in
those moments. And probably deal with PTSD and yeah, you know how that
stuff can manifest. But I bet there's a certain faction of people that look
at this as an opportunity to test out their gear on a person. I
do not know why in that scenario with cops, I we will hope they're
not trying to test out any gear. Ever, Well, no, they're
training and they're ready. And the vast majority of police never pull their gun
in their entire career, much less shoot it. So I don't want to
use the word exciting it, but that is the correct word. It's an
exciting moment. You are excited and by this situation because to utilize your training
and what you're you know, I mean, the point is the kids holding
a gun. So if three officers shot at him, he pointed it at
them or at his own heads is probably what happened. They said he was
and when they arrived, he was in the office by himself, And I'm
not saying it wasn't there by himself five minutes before they arrived. I'm not
saying that that mindset applies to this situation, which is something that kind of
I've always thought about in those moments Sore there's some dudes that are like,
hell, yeah, finally, you know, and I'm not shooting a deer
or a goose or a duck. This is the ultimate prize. Just maybe
not even consciously agree but subconsciously subconsciously, but I mean, I play call
of duty. We have flash bangs that can disorient he plays call of duty
well for real, Like, there's a seemingly dozens of non lethal options,
especially if it's a kid, and then you could get a cop on here
that would make an argument that would absolutely silence you in me for even considering
the other options. You know, it's life and death. It's the moment
that guy to move. We are trained to do this, and I don't
disagree with that either. I'm just saying just psychologically, I think that there's
I think maybe we're all capable of it. I'm like, I wonder what
it would feel like to take another human beings, Like I wonder what the
where the line is Cops, if they believe it's imminent, they can use
lethal force. But again, this kid didn't fire around now and they won't
even tell you that if they shot him or not too, but if three
of them fired their gun at him, well, then someone he had his
gun, and who's to say his gun didn't go off and accidentally shoot him.
They're gonna they'll look at the whole thing. And yeah, and if
he's pointing his gun right at them, is that justification? Oh? Hell
yeah, yes, I think Yeah, I'm surprised he didn't get it in
the head. If he did that, Heck, I thought that said.
That makes me think he might have been doing it on himself. If he's
got the gun on himself to stop hi from killing himself. Maybe. Okay,
cops don't wing you either. I've asked a cop that they don't kneecap
you or shoulder shot you. Well, it's that critical mass if they're pulling
their their weapon and shooting. Oh, if three officers shot and he pointed
at them, then he would be dead. I'm surprised the fact that he
him just holding a gun, whether he was posing it in a threatening manner
or not, he wasn't shot before he was. Yeah, I am too.
I mean, you just hear the word. You've seen so many videos
where it's like you just scream the word gun, yeah, and then it's
just like empty the clip. What about the guy that an acorn fell on
his car and he just emptied a clip into his own cruiser. Oh yeah,
well luckily nothing no one heard. He thought it was a gun shot.
So we're good there, I think. I mean, uh, that's
your story. Out of mesquite twenty minutes is going to uh well sports at
seven two about Jerry? Is he gonna have to put his little swimmers in
a cup? Ooh? Six Flags has announced a new family ride. Oh
yes, are you guys ready to ride the Sylvester in tweety Pounce and Bounce.
JJ's pumped in there. Yeah. It's the new park enhancements they're looking
for. And this is a big year for six Flags because we know what
they're building up in Frisco with the new uh marvel Land or whatever what is
that universal it's their building instead of want of Frisco. Yeah, yeah,
so family, it's a big year versus six Flags. Six Flags needs to
be on the comeback trail, Okay, they need to get it back together.
They're adding one new ride, the Sylvester and tweety Pounds and Bounce.
It's a family drop tower that lives riders forty one feet in the air before
beginning a sequence of downward pounces and upward bounces. I cannot wait. You're
not going to be allowed to ride it? Why because it's a little kids
ride? Forty one feet in the airs. Not for little kids? Yeah
it is, Come on, you think this. No, it's called pounts
and bounce and whoever Sylvester, Sylvester and Tweety pounce and bounce. You really
think that's for you? Maybe? All right? You know what, that's
your mission. That's fine, does it sound? I want you to go
to six Flags on the grand opening of the Sylvester and Tweety's Pounce and Bounce,
and I want you to get your your whatever that thing is super speed
pass ten times in a row. I'm telling you they won't let you on
it. No for kids. You're gonna be a big boy. You're barely
gonna exceed the height the height requirement. I'm sorry, little Kevin, but
you're just a big boy. You're dressed up like Cavio, I know.
Yeah, we're more Looney Tune centered around here. Warner Brothers, Nintendo.
They're also adding Mike what daffy duck bucket blasters? Stop clapping, JJ,
she's fired up by all the Daffy Duck Bucket. That sounds like something the
fake Bill Clinton was trying to schlock yesterday. It's a spinning ride that features
water blasters. You realize this isn't all in the little kid's land that you
don't even walk through. Well, this ride was removed in twenty twenty one
during the construction of Aquaman Power Wave. Okay, now that now making its
triumph it return, So welcome back Daffy Duck bucket, blasters and then ah
Dina off Road Adventures. Christina, that'll be good. That's coming back.
Good news. She will probably make the weight limit unlike any of us to
ride the Dino Mobiles. Sticky. In Arlington, there's a sign a Globalize
Field that's announcing the arrival of water Burger. It's been hung in an open
area on the third base side of the ballpark. Construction is not begun yet,
but the Rangers, or a Rangers official did say, yeah, there's
a sign there, but they wouldn't announce anything. They think they're gonna announce
it later in March to be ready for opening day. You bet we're gonna
announce it. I'll be there to serve the first inaugural Hamburger at Globe Life
Park. Wow, what a burger man a water Burger, A juicy,
tasty water burger. Seven old beef patties, who fourteen slices of real American
cheese, an entire onion, four tomatoes sliced hellapenias, mustard, and pickies.
Wa Burger, damn it? Okay the water Burger got it, and
say kickies, damn whole onions for one hundred ninety dollars. Ranger Cruz,
badass burger. Another reason to get that app, the Waterberger app side Bam,
the water Burger app gonna work at the Globe Life Field kuriosk. Of
course you don't know that, I know. I bet it doesn't know.
I bet it doesn't. That's gonna be popular even a Ranger game bat water
Burger. People like baseball, like water Burger. And no doubt the thing
about Waterburger, it's made to order, allegedly, I think it is absolutely
yeah. Okay, so they're gonna have to assemble every order because everybody's gonna
want it different. That's the thing about Like Mickey D's is a big Mac,
is a big Mac, and it's right there. They're not gonna take
that app. You know what if you're a Waterburger operative and you know the
answer to this question, I say that there's no way they're gonna be dealing
with apps at a ballpark restaurant. I think Dandy's wrong here. I think
Danny's wrong as well. Really, yeah, it's twenty twenty four, dude,
to wake up man, because what you just said would lead you to
massive lines. And it's probably gonna be a big Probably a big water Burger.
I don't know, but yeah, they don't want to deal with lines
all his custom orders. They're going to encourage people to use the app.
Use the app, Use the app. Danny Waburger too has gotten the app.
Waterburger's not like the old days or like some people like you have branded
it as like food for old people. It's not. It's a young people.
I'm doing it. I'm doing an impression of the voiceover guy they hired
for their campaign. I didn't make the decision to get a ninety year old
guy that smoked cigarettes to talk about burgers. I'm just saying they're past that.
Gen Z loves water Burger. Get ready, Hey, I'm water Burger
Kidload the app. Bro the app. I like that, get water points,
wat of points and order the extreme fries. I'm gonna do a quick
one here. Let's go to Lewisville. There's a teacher by the name of
at Hebert High School, Rockmandjati. Yeah weird, I say, But he's
been placed on leave after a social media account posted a video of him wearing
a pink dress with matching boots and a hat. Video had nearly five million
views by last Friday. So he's placed on leave because he was wearing a
pink dress for what he called spirit Day at the high school. Some students
have spoken up and have got a petition going. Not the petitions really do
anything, A spokesperson from Louisville ISD said, standard procedure. We're gonna put
you on leave, and then, you know, we got concerns. Here's
the problem if he says or on the petition, it says that students encouraged
him to wear the dress in honor of school spirit Day. So what do
you do here? It's your teachers wearing a dress. I glance, I
smile, and I move on with my day. Okay, that's not what
happens. There's five million views on Twitter. Have the teacher, the male
teacher wearing the pink dress and matching boots to class in Texas. So what
do we want him to be? I don't want anything driven to the state
lines and dumped out of Texas? Who cares? Who cares? Who cares?
A lot of people that a lot of people really care. They yell
that they care. They don't want that on school spirit day. I mean,
I get if it's every day and then I don't really get it.
But fine, that's something I guess you can say is impacting our children.
But one day, hell, we had people wear dresses to school. Losing
bets? Is that it's just not a big deal. Well you had people
wearing dresses to school? Yes, yeah, we had a day where yeah,
well you dressed up like cheer I didn't get cross dressed, as I
did a bit as a cheerleader in just seventh grade. Yeah, put the
wig on right? Eighth grade was what's the context of this though? Was
the guy trying to do comedy? The state, he says, was he
was the dress of provocative dress? I mean, there's not. The petition
says that the students encouraged him to wear the dress for school spirit. All
right, So they're doing bits. Yeah, this sounds like a bit.
Doesn't sound like this guy was showing up, you know, cross dresses or
is transitioning or something like that. We don't know any of that. We
don't. We don't. But if he only did it once on school Spirit
Day and he says the students encouraged it, it's probably just a bit.
Probably, Yeah, okay, but this is nothing until it gets online and
there's five million views on it, and then the outrage comes from outrage.
Huh do you have outrage? Yeah? I mean written outrage. No,
this is not safe for our children. Like, uh, no, I
see any of that. But I think there's outrage from all these people that
he was put on leave too. Yeah, but there should be a lot
of people are going, I don't want my student. I don't want my
kid going there, all right. I bet there's outrage on the next door
app. Oh, the next door app is awesome. Guys, Holy,
we gotta do a neighborhood watch this week. You want to do a neighborhood
watch this week? I got a whole HIV thing going around in my neighborhood.
Hey, now it's weird. You don't want a grown man that is
in charge of kids wearing a pink dress in front of kids. It's a
big deal. Mike. Yeah, Mike, the lines are blurred, man,
Not everything's going to be exactly how everyone wants it. It's okay,
that's true. Just take care of your own place. I think we have
a basic problem with humans forgetting that humans should all be on the same team
like this goes into way deeper waters. Of course, with war, we
won't get the dumbest thing ever that humans fight. We won't get there until
the aliens come. No, we won't know. But like us, humans
should always realize that we're all together and we are on the same team,
and we just can't well, who are we fighting? Then? If we're
all on one team, who are we fighting? The elk? I think,
like fire and water, this is the two most dangerous things that you
should respect that are around you at all times. Turns out it's other people
to fight each other. Kevin, Well, there's that, thanks Kevin.
Coming up in sports and seven this Dallas Cowboys player who a lot of people
thought would be gone and said no, I want to come back. And
is Jerry Jones gonna have to go into a side room, look at some
old Cagney Carter magazines and tapes, and dump it all into a cup.
Yuck. Next to ninety seven won the Freak
