WEBVTT 1 00:00:23.800 --> 00:00:26.600 Six forty yes later with Mo Kelly. We're live everywhere 2 00:00:26.600 --> 00:00:29.239 on the iHeartRadio app. I tell you, rainy days and 3 00:00:29.280 --> 00:00:33.359 Mondays always get me down. Something about this particular Monday. 4 00:00:33.399 --> 00:00:36.359 I'm a little bit slower than usual. I'm a little 5 00:00:36.399 --> 00:00:40.679 bit more sluggish. I'm a little bit more antsy. Some 6 00:00:40.840 --> 00:00:43.640 Mondays are more difficult than others. I hope you had 7 00:00:43.640 --> 00:00:45.799 a great weekend. I had a great weekend. It was full, 8 00:00:45.880 --> 00:00:47.880 though it felt like I didn't have a weekend. I 9 00:00:47.920 --> 00:00:51.399 was doing something all day each day of the weekend. 10 00:00:51.439 --> 00:00:54.640 But I'm glad to be back here with you. So 11 00:00:54.799 --> 00:00:57.280 much to talk about given the events of the past 12 00:00:57.320 --> 00:01:00.799 two three days. You know that violent mind which assaulted 13 00:01:00.840 --> 00:01:03.560 the seven eleven clerk. They've been showing that video on 14 00:01:03.679 --> 00:01:08.040 loop all day long. They ransacked that seven eleven. Well, 15 00:01:08.079 --> 00:01:10.079 I have some thoughts about that, and I think I've 16 00:01:10.120 --> 00:01:17.159 figured it out as to why seven eleven not AMPM, 17 00:01:17.239 --> 00:01:23.239 not Circle K, not Joe's Convenience Store. Why seven eleven. 18 00:01:23.280 --> 00:01:26.640 I'll give you those thoughts next segment. And we have 19 00:01:26.719 --> 00:01:30.159 a list of the cities with the worst drivers in 20 00:01:30.200 --> 00:01:33.359 the United States. Mark Ronner is going to be listening 21 00:01:33.400 --> 00:01:36.560 intently because these are the cities for him to avoid 22 00:01:36.640 --> 00:01:38.920 if he does not want to give people the double 23 00:01:38.959 --> 00:01:40.400 bird or even the single bird. 24 00:01:40.519 --> 00:01:43.120 I only do it when it's an absolute necessity and 25 00:01:43.159 --> 00:01:45.040 it's a public service and a courtesy. 26 00:01:45.120 --> 00:01:47.519 I do not doubt you at all. But if we're 27 00:01:47.599 --> 00:01:50.799 doing the list, you know it's connected to southern California 28 00:01:50.879 --> 00:01:53.760 somewhere along the way. And of course we all know 29 00:01:53.840 --> 00:01:56.280 that there is a presidential election coming up, but that's 30 00:01:56.359 --> 00:01:59.840 not the only election that people are talking about. And 31 00:02:00.079 --> 00:02:02.840 if you're like me, hopefully you're not, but if you're 32 00:02:02.879 --> 00:02:08.439 like me, you're getting campaign calls, these robo calls, these 33 00:02:08.520 --> 00:02:14.919 text messages, emails every single day. I'm talking about from 34 00:02:14.919 --> 00:02:18.199 both parties. They just somehow figured out how to find me, 35 00:02:18.560 --> 00:02:20.759 and they probably found you as well, and you just 36 00:02:20.840 --> 00:02:25.199 get bombarded with all these messages. Well, the question is, 37 00:02:25.240 --> 00:02:28.280 can you stop at least the phone calls and texts. 38 00:02:28.439 --> 00:02:31.159 We'll talk about that before the hour's up. And we 39 00:02:31.280 --> 00:02:34.240 have a pair of Circus Vargas tickets to give away 40 00:02:34.759 --> 00:02:38.479 for October eighteenth at the Delamo Fashion Center. So we've 41 00:02:38.479 --> 00:02:42.039 got a pair of Circus Vargus tickets for October eighteenth, 42 00:02:42.039 --> 00:02:45.240 that's coming up soon at Delamo Fashion Center. They could 43 00:02:45.240 --> 00:02:47.400 be yours, but you're going to have to listen in 44 00:02:47.599 --> 00:02:50.680 as to when we're going to give them away. So, Stephan, 45 00:02:50.719 --> 00:02:52.520 I didn't getting to get a chance to say hello 46 00:02:52.560 --> 00:02:53.919 to you this evening. How you doing, brother? 47 00:02:54.080 --> 00:02:54.240 Good? 48 00:02:54.319 --> 00:02:56.400 Hear you, sir? I'm doing all right. Did you drive 49 00:02:56.439 --> 00:02:59.039 for anyone this weekend? No? Not this weekend. I had 50 00:02:59.039 --> 00:03:01.960 a lot of stuff take care with the pops. But yeah, 51 00:03:02.080 --> 00:03:04.719 otherwise it's pretty relaxing. Okay, what about you, Mark Ronner. 52 00:03:05.759 --> 00:03:08.360 You don't even want to know the depths of nerdism 53 00:03:08.400 --> 00:03:10.439 I sunk to this weekend. But I'll just give it 54 00:03:10.719 --> 00:03:13.400 teeny tiny little adam of it. You know. I'm a 55 00:03:13.479 --> 00:03:17.280 James Bond fan, love the old ones. There were some 56 00:03:17.360 --> 00:03:21.000 commentaries on Criterion collection editions of the first three James 57 00:03:21.080 --> 00:03:23.639 Bond movies that were banned in the early nineties. 58 00:03:24.360 --> 00:03:29.240 I found them, Did you pay for Him? I found them? 59 00:03:29.639 --> 00:03:32.560 I found okay, and I also found like a summary 60 00:03:32.599 --> 00:03:35.479 of the best dirtiest bits from him. They were banned because, 61 00:03:35.479 --> 00:03:38.919 like Kubby Broccoli, who you recall is the hauncho behind 62 00:03:38.919 --> 00:03:41.960 those earlier Bond movies, he was offended by them, and 63 00:03:42.000 --> 00:03:44.879 there was some kind of salty language and some insults 64 00:03:44.919 --> 00:03:48.479 and some unflattering remarks made about assorted people in the 65 00:03:48.520 --> 00:03:50.759 cast and crew, very entertaining. 66 00:03:50.879 --> 00:03:53.159 All right, all right, and what about you, twall? What 67 00:03:53.199 --> 00:03:57.199 did you get into? I did not do much. There's 68 00:03:57.240 --> 00:03:57.840 this g I. 69 00:03:58.039 --> 00:04:02.400 Joe comic relaunch coming in November, and it looks very, 70 00:04:02.479 --> 00:04:04.919 very exciting. So I went around to a bunch of 71 00:04:04.960 --> 00:04:08.199 different comic shops to get a hold of some of 72 00:04:08.240 --> 00:04:13.039 the prequel series from four of the main characters in 73 00:04:13.120 --> 00:04:15.680 the Giagro commic. They have like prequel series that are 74 00:04:15.719 --> 00:04:18.000 coming before this major relaunch. I just went around to 75 00:04:18.040 --> 00:04:21.399 a bunch of shops to stock up. All right, Yeah, Well, 76 00:04:21.439 --> 00:04:23.360 my weekend was just full. It was just full. 77 00:04:23.399 --> 00:04:27.120 I was doing something all hours of both days of 78 00:04:27.160 --> 00:04:30.360 the weekend. How was the Blue Door Bat. It was fantastic. 79 00:04:30.480 --> 00:04:33.519 They raised a lot of money. I'm not at liberty 80 00:04:33.560 --> 00:04:35.759 to say how much they raised, but they raised a 81 00:04:35.759 --> 00:04:37.240 lot of money. We were going to help out a 82 00:04:37.240 --> 00:04:40.279 lot of kids across southern California, more specifically in the 83 00:04:40.319 --> 00:04:43.600 Carson area, and it was just a well received event. 84 00:04:43.639 --> 00:04:46.360 I heard a lot of great feedback from the multiple 85 00:04:46.399 --> 00:04:50.360 interviews we had with participants here on later with Mo Kelly, 86 00:04:50.360 --> 00:04:52.800 and I look forward to doing it in future years. 87 00:04:53.000 --> 00:04:55.480 It feels really good. And I try to say this 88 00:04:55.639 --> 00:04:59.160 not to gloat, but to be clear, I don't get 89 00:04:59.199 --> 00:05:01.959 paid for that. I'm doing it because I feel that 90 00:05:02.040 --> 00:05:06.319 it's important to do and I would rather give my time. 91 00:05:07.120 --> 00:05:09.399 And it's a fundraiser. I'm not trying to get money 92 00:05:09.399 --> 00:05:11.759 from a fundraiser. It's just weird to me. Other people do. 93 00:05:12.399 --> 00:05:15.319 I'm saying I don't. That's one of the things that 94 00:05:15.360 --> 00:05:18.160 I look forward to every single year because I like 95 00:05:18.240 --> 00:05:20.199 to be able to say I had a hand in 96 00:05:20.319 --> 00:05:23.720 helping raise money a lot of money to help a 97 00:05:23.759 --> 00:05:26.839 lot of children. I'm all about children and I'm all 98 00:05:26.879 --> 00:05:30.000 about education. Kind of works together, so it's a It's 99 00:05:30.040 --> 00:05:32.800 a perfect fit for me. Shout out to Kim Richards, 100 00:05:32.800 --> 00:05:35.439 who is the CEO for the Boys and Girls Club 101 00:05:35.839 --> 00:05:39.680 of Carson putting on a phenomenal event. Nina Patel as well, 102 00:05:39.720 --> 00:05:42.560 the vice president of development. Can't wait to do it 103 00:05:42.680 --> 00:05:45.120 next year. And they always have a great I want 104 00:05:45.160 --> 00:05:47.680 to take a moment here. They always have a great venue. 105 00:05:48.120 --> 00:05:51.560 One year they did it at Dignity Health where what 106 00:05:51.720 --> 00:05:55.240 used to be what do they call it wherever the 107 00:05:55.319 --> 00:05:58.920 Chargers used to play in Carson? Yes, thank you, I'm 108 00:05:58.920 --> 00:06:02.079 come to Depot Center. It's now Dignity Health. They did 109 00:06:02.079 --> 00:06:06.199 it one year at Bemo Stadium, which is where the 110 00:06:06.319 --> 00:06:09.120 LA Football Club plays right off the one ten Freeway. 111 00:06:09.319 --> 00:06:13.560 They did it at the Porsche Carson Carson Porsche Experience 112 00:06:13.959 --> 00:06:16.279 a couple of years there. They always have these fantastic 113 00:06:16.920 --> 00:06:21.199 venues and this year it was you know, it was 114 00:06:21.240 --> 00:06:23.920 one of the same at Sofi Stadium. It was just great. 115 00:06:24.439 --> 00:06:27.360 Great for the venue, a loan saying nothing of the cause, 116 00:06:27.759 --> 00:06:31.199 and also the contributions, A great turnout. It's a great turnout. 117 00:06:31.199 --> 00:06:35.839 It's about maybe three hundred attendees. Wow, because it's maxed 118 00:06:35.839 --> 00:06:37.839 out at a certain point because they have tables and 119 00:06:38.160 --> 00:06:41.439 seats and dinners off Saturdays. Oh yeah, good cause that 120 00:06:41.560 --> 00:06:44.199 is a great turnout. But it wasn't a long evening. 121 00:06:44.240 --> 00:06:47.000 You know, the evening starts at seven o'clock. We were 122 00:06:47.040 --> 00:06:50.720 done by nine oh five. Wow, now was there since three? 123 00:06:50.720 --> 00:06:52.879 Because they had like a run through and rehearsal everything, 124 00:06:52.879 --> 00:06:56.399 But the event itself it flows so oh. I will 125 00:06:56.439 --> 00:07:00.680 say this shout out to Marathon Patrol who donated one 126 00:07:00.720 --> 00:07:02.560 hundred and fifty thousand dollars. Let me just say that, 127 00:07:03.000 --> 00:07:07.160 one hundred and fifty thousand dollars one donor. That's how 128 00:07:07.160 --> 00:07:09.120 we got down. So it was a great weekend in 129 00:07:09.120 --> 00:07:12.360 that regard. Busy but great. It's Later with Mokelly. We're 130 00:07:12.360 --> 00:07:15.160 going to talk about seven to eleven and that latest 131 00:07:15.399 --> 00:07:17.480 ransacking and mobbing when we come back. 132 00:07:18.079 --> 00:07:21.639 You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from 133 00:07:21.759 --> 00:07:23.319 KFI AM six forty. 134 00:07:23.720 --> 00:07:26.680 By now you've probably seen. If you haven't seen, just 135 00:07:26.680 --> 00:07:30.199 turn on your TV. It's on loop. You've seen the 136 00:07:30.360 --> 00:07:34.040 footage of the mob which attacked a seven eleven store 137 00:07:34.240 --> 00:07:37.959 in Orange County yesterday. It left the store clerk with 138 00:07:38.000 --> 00:07:41.920 a bloody nose. That goodness, he wasn't more seriously injured. 139 00:07:42.759 --> 00:07:47.360 And you could tell there was footage by the surveillance cameras. 140 00:07:47.480 --> 00:07:51.519 There was footage obviously by people who were there and 141 00:07:51.759 --> 00:07:56.160 were stupid enough to upload it to social media. They 142 00:07:56.199 --> 00:07:59.439 will be caught. So I don't think that is an issue. 143 00:08:00.120 --> 00:08:03.000 But I did come to some realization and I'm not 144 00:08:03.040 --> 00:08:04.959 saying that I'm the only one who started this. I'm 145 00:08:05.000 --> 00:08:07.439 not saying this at all. I'm saying that I think 146 00:08:07.480 --> 00:08:10.680 if there is a common thread woven through all these 147 00:08:11.279 --> 00:08:16.279 flash mob ransackings and seven elevens, it's this and Tuala 148 00:08:16.319 --> 00:08:17.920 and I did not tell you this before the show, 149 00:08:17.959 --> 00:08:20.639 so tell me what you think of it. We were 150 00:08:20.680 --> 00:08:24.639 always theorizing out loud why was it always seven to eleven? 151 00:08:24.680 --> 00:08:26.120 And I said it had to be something with the 152 00:08:26.160 --> 00:08:29.439 setup of configuration or something, because it's only seven to eleven. 153 00:08:29.519 --> 00:08:33.200 It must be a more attractive target. And then I 154 00:08:33.320 --> 00:08:35.559 kept reading back to the old stories, and then it 155 00:08:35.639 --> 00:08:39.279 hit me. The lottery tickets. If you go into a 156 00:08:39.360 --> 00:08:42.600 seven eleven, the lottery tickets are on the counter more 157 00:08:42.639 --> 00:08:46.080 times than not yet available to the hand. It may 158 00:08:46.080 --> 00:08:49.159 be behind a little bit of a plastic, but it's still, 159 00:08:49.399 --> 00:08:51.240 you know, available to someone's going to come in the 160 00:08:51.320 --> 00:08:55.720 store with bad intentions. Now, if you go into most ampms, 161 00:08:55.879 --> 00:08:59.279 they have like a lexand wall. Yeah, you're not getting there. 162 00:08:59.440 --> 00:09:02.440 The all all the lottery tickets in seven eleven. I 163 00:09:02.480 --> 00:09:04.559 know this because I go to seven eleven in the morning. 164 00:09:04.559 --> 00:09:06.879 They give them a coffee, grab a little lottery ticket. 165 00:09:07.000 --> 00:09:12.399 All their scratchers are right there under a little glass 166 00:09:12.519 --> 00:09:13.919 like partition on the counter for you. 167 00:09:14.039 --> 00:09:14.519 On the counter. 168 00:09:14.799 --> 00:09:17.200 But if you go behind the counter, you can just 169 00:09:17.279 --> 00:09:18.840 pull all those things off and. 170 00:09:18.799 --> 00:09:20.799 There's nothing keeping you from hopping the counter. 171 00:09:20.960 --> 00:09:26.159 Nothing, no, nothing, absolutely nothing, not even the older individuals 172 00:09:26.159 --> 00:09:28.279 that are there for some reason another. Every time I 173 00:09:28.320 --> 00:09:31.200 go there during a morning shift, it is usually an 174 00:09:31.240 --> 00:09:35.679 older individual working there. Later on the afternoon, maybe it's 175 00:09:35.679 --> 00:09:37.799 the sun, maybe it's the nephew, the brother coming in. 176 00:09:38.200 --> 00:09:42.159 It's typically an younger gentleman. 177 00:09:42.360 --> 00:09:45.039 But still it's those either one guy. There's usually one 178 00:09:45.080 --> 00:09:47.600 guy in there. But see, there are two things I 179 00:09:47.600 --> 00:09:49.759 would say to that. One. We always say like, hey, 180 00:09:49.840 --> 00:09:53.000 it's seven to eleven, you know, it's not worth your life. 181 00:09:53.240 --> 00:09:56.120 And I would say like, it's probably a family operation. 182 00:09:56.240 --> 00:09:58.480 So the people working in there, they feel much more 183 00:09:58.480 --> 00:10:01.200 connected to it than the average employer, you know, working 184 00:10:01.240 --> 00:10:04.440 at any convenience store. That's the first thing. Second, when 185 00:10:04.440 --> 00:10:06.799 I was watching this video again, it's been on loop 186 00:10:06.879 --> 00:10:09.440 all day long, and you see a guy. All of 187 00:10:09.480 --> 00:10:12.519 them are like hoodies and sweatshts. They're very conscious to 188 00:10:12.600 --> 00:10:15.120 cover even their arms. They don't want you to know 189 00:10:15.159 --> 00:10:19.159 even their ethnicity or anything which might be identifiable. Going 190 00:10:19.200 --> 00:10:21.399 back to the kids who are identified by their parents, 191 00:10:22.919 --> 00:10:26.720 there's an escalation. Now, before it was just a ransacking, 192 00:10:27.120 --> 00:10:30.080 they would leave the clerk alone. This time they engage 193 00:10:30.080 --> 00:10:32.720 the clerk. They threatened him with a big rock and 194 00:10:32.840 --> 00:10:36.360 he ended up with a bloody nose. I'm not asking 195 00:10:36.399 --> 00:10:39.840 for this to happen, but i do know how things escalate. 196 00:10:40.399 --> 00:10:43.639 If the violence from the would be criminals escalate, those 197 00:10:43.720 --> 00:10:46.559 who are running the businesses are going to respond in kind. 198 00:10:46.840 --> 00:10:50.399 They're going to protect themselves. They're going to protect their property. 199 00:10:51.039 --> 00:10:54.399 And if I were an owner of a seven eleven, 200 00:10:54.919 --> 00:10:57.320 if I were an employee at a seven to eleven, 201 00:10:58.120 --> 00:11:02.200 each time I walk into that place, I have to assume, 202 00:11:02.399 --> 00:11:06.279 especially in southern California, I would have to assume that 203 00:11:06.399 --> 00:11:09.960 I'm a potential target, a likely target, and there may 204 00:11:10.000 --> 00:11:14.559 be some fifty individuals now who don't have any reservations 205 00:11:14.600 --> 00:11:17.960 about harming me as well as ransacking the store. So 206 00:11:18.120 --> 00:11:21.399 having nothing to do with trying to protect the store 207 00:11:22.159 --> 00:11:27.600 and protect the property and protect the product, I have 208 00:11:27.759 --> 00:11:33.440 to protect myself. I think this escalates even more because 209 00:11:33.600 --> 00:11:36.639 even though in credit to the police and law enforcement 210 00:11:36.679 --> 00:11:39.559 by arresting a lot of these individuals who are involved, 211 00:11:39.679 --> 00:11:43.840 it's not dissuading other groups because they said, it's like 212 00:11:43.919 --> 00:11:46.200 fifty people that it's not dissuading them. These are now 213 00:11:46.240 --> 00:11:48.440 the copycats. I don't believe it's the same group. When 214 00:11:48.480 --> 00:11:51.720 you're talking about Orange County and you're talking about in 215 00:11:51.840 --> 00:11:55.759 the Wiltshire area, these are not the same kids. It 216 00:11:55.960 --> 00:11:58.799 just not. So these are copycats and it can happen 217 00:11:58.840 --> 00:12:03.679 then anywhere any neighborhood, presumably because I don't think that 218 00:12:03.720 --> 00:12:08.200 Orange County neighborhood was the same demographic, economic demographic as 219 00:12:08.200 --> 00:12:10.240 the Wilshire area. I might be wrong, but I don't 220 00:12:10.240 --> 00:12:14.240 think it was. You're going to see most likely an escalation, 221 00:12:14.879 --> 00:12:16.519 and God help us when it does. 222 00:12:17.039 --> 00:12:20.200 I am going to put out a theory only because 223 00:12:20.360 --> 00:12:23.279 at one point in time, I was one of those 224 00:12:23.399 --> 00:12:26.080 kids that are out in front of you know, supermarket, 225 00:12:27.200 --> 00:12:31.159 selling candy right with the fake story of made up 226 00:12:31.200 --> 00:12:33.120 this that or the other. I'm out here raising money 227 00:12:33.159 --> 00:12:37.000 for whatever team, whatever, whatever whatever, selling chocolate bars that 228 00:12:37.039 --> 00:12:38.720 we go get at the nine to nine cents store 229 00:12:38.879 --> 00:12:40.080 and go out and try to sell them to you 230 00:12:40.120 --> 00:12:42.559 for like five dollars. That was me, right, And I 231 00:12:42.600 --> 00:12:49.039 know there was an individual in Pasadena who would organize 232 00:12:49.639 --> 00:12:51.960 all of us put like nine ten kids in the 233 00:12:52.039 --> 00:12:54.240 van and we and drop us off in front of stores. 234 00:12:54.559 --> 00:12:54.759 Right. 235 00:12:55.399 --> 00:13:01.000 I don't believe that these attacks are as rand as 236 00:13:01.120 --> 00:13:04.360 we are made to believe because it's kids. I believe, 237 00:13:04.600 --> 00:13:09.000 just like with the ransacking in Nortrum's Mall this same 238 00:13:09.080 --> 00:13:12.399 past weekend, that was organized and they've caught damn near 239 00:13:12.519 --> 00:13:15.440 all of them, I believe that there is some level 240 00:13:15.440 --> 00:13:19.399 of organization where there is someone who is gathering these 241 00:13:19.480 --> 00:13:21.600 kids together. I don't care if it's two or three 242 00:13:21.600 --> 00:13:24.840 individuals gathering together and saying we're gonna hit this one today, 243 00:13:25.159 --> 00:13:28.559 because it is too similar for it to be just 244 00:13:28.639 --> 00:13:31.240 some kids texting and saying, hey, we're going to do this, 245 00:13:31.320 --> 00:13:36.960 let's go. I don't believe it's that that loose in planning. 246 00:13:37.039 --> 00:13:39.120 Let me let me probe that even further, and I 247 00:13:39.120 --> 00:13:42.200 would then ask what is the end game? Because if 248 00:13:42.240 --> 00:13:46.000 I'm not mistaken, if I'm not mistaken, the lottery tickets, 249 00:13:46.120 --> 00:13:49.840 especially the scratch offs, they have serial numbers, I don't 250 00:13:49.879 --> 00:13:51.679 know if you can redeem them, because I'm quite sure 251 00:13:51.720 --> 00:13:54.519 they're gonna catalog that which is stolen in the serial 252 00:13:54.600 --> 00:13:57.279 numbers thereof of the lottery tickets. So I don't know 253 00:13:57.279 --> 00:14:01.519 if they're usable in any real form and outside of 254 00:14:01.559 --> 00:14:04.799 the lottery tickets. I don't know that the financial upside 255 00:14:04.840 --> 00:14:07.279 from the candy bars and you know, the knickknacks which 256 00:14:07.279 --> 00:14:09.559 are being solen. We don't know. 257 00:14:09.799 --> 00:14:12.759 And to me, it's about if it was just one 258 00:14:12.879 --> 00:14:16.759 seven eleven and say an ampn But there's something about 259 00:14:17.320 --> 00:14:21.279 all of the things that they're gathering that by themselves. No, 260 00:14:21.840 --> 00:14:25.200 but in great numbers. Then you start to have something. 261 00:14:25.240 --> 00:14:27.639 Then you start to have a supply where you can 262 00:14:27.679 --> 00:14:28.759 do something else with it. 263 00:14:28.840 --> 00:14:31.240 No, it's not a coincidence. Yeah, it's I just don't 264 00:14:31.279 --> 00:14:33.639 believe it's a coinci. Yeah, I'm thinking, I'm going up 265 00:14:33.679 --> 00:14:35.919 and down the aisles with my mind. Is are there 266 00:14:36.000 --> 00:14:38.279 like pseudo fat tablets in the aisle where they can 267 00:14:38.360 --> 00:14:41.000 use for the creation of other drugs since they've locked 268 00:14:41.000 --> 00:14:45.080 those down in most write aids and drug stores, I 269 00:14:45.080 --> 00:14:47.639 don't know if it's a misdirection for something else. No, 270 00:14:48.360 --> 00:14:51.399 when you're only hitting seven elevens, it's not a coincidence. 271 00:14:51.440 --> 00:14:54.399 It's a pattern. It's just a matter of what's behind 272 00:14:54.519 --> 00:14:57.960 the pattern. And I'm surprised, honestly that seven to eleven 273 00:14:58.440 --> 00:15:02.240 on a corporate level has not stepped in and done 274 00:15:02.279 --> 00:15:07.200 something statewide to better protect them, or at least go 275 00:15:07.320 --> 00:15:11.000 through some sort of motion to increase level of security, 276 00:15:11.120 --> 00:15:13.679 even if they had temporary security members there or something, 277 00:15:13.720 --> 00:15:17.200 because there's city ducks and they're being used as targets 278 00:15:17.279 --> 00:15:20.240 just about every single week. Yeah, Yeah, it's Later with 279 00:15:20.279 --> 00:15:22.480 mo Kelly. Can if I Am six forty live everywhere 280 00:15:22.480 --> 00:15:24.519 on the iHeartRadio app and when we come back, we 281 00:15:24.559 --> 00:15:28.440 will tell you the cities with the worst drivers in 282 00:15:28.480 --> 00:15:32.879 the country, and California is represented somewhere in there, probably 283 00:15:32.919 --> 00:15:34.799 because of Mark Runner and his antics. 284 00:15:35.000 --> 00:15:37.080 Don't quote me on that, but probably you will not 285 00:15:37.200 --> 00:15:38.840 scapegoat me. I forbid it. 286 00:15:39.559 --> 00:15:43.159 You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from 287 00:15:43.240 --> 00:15:45.080 KFI AM six forty. 288 00:15:45.440 --> 00:15:48.639 And maybe your city is on this list, the list 289 00:15:48.679 --> 00:15:52.039 of the cities with the worst drivers in the country. 290 00:15:52.120 --> 00:15:55.240 And I'm not saying this to be funny. We're talking 291 00:15:55.279 --> 00:16:00.200 about the number of fatalities per one hundred thousand people, 292 00:16:00.279 --> 00:16:05.159 crash fatalities and fatalities involving a driver with a positive 293 00:16:05.159 --> 00:16:10.879 blood alcohol content above the legal limit per one hundred thousand, okay, 294 00:16:10.960 --> 00:16:14.279 And they little it down to a crash score. And 295 00:16:14.320 --> 00:16:18.960 this is a research team of a Consumer Affairs Group 296 00:16:19.039 --> 00:16:23.799 study and these are their findings based on NHTSA, the 297 00:16:23.879 --> 00:16:28.200 National Highway Traffic Safety Administrations latest data, which is twenty 298 00:16:28.240 --> 00:16:31.519 twenty two. Didn't have twenty twenty three. But we can 299 00:16:32.120 --> 00:16:34.759 give you the twenty five worst cities, but we're not. 300 00:16:34.799 --> 00:16:37.399 We'll only give you the top ten of the worst cities, 301 00:16:38.039 --> 00:16:41.679 coming in at number ten. As far as fatalities and 302 00:16:41.840 --> 00:16:52.440 also drunk driving driving under the influence fatalities, Saint Louis 303 00:16:52.840 --> 00:16:56.480 with a crash score of fifty two point three per 304 00:16:57.039 --> 00:17:07.279 one hundred thousand, coming in at number nine, Midland, Texas 305 00:17:07.480 --> 00:17:10.799 with a score of fifty two point eight coming in 306 00:17:10.880 --> 00:17:13.400 at number eight. As far as the worst drivers are 307 00:17:13.480 --> 00:17:25.079 most dangerous drivers actually in the United States backpons number eight, 308 00:17:25.880 --> 00:17:37.599 fifty three point seven, Number seven, Wichita Falls, Texas, not 309 00:17:37.680 --> 00:17:40.920 to be confused with Wichita, Kansas, fifty four point six, 310 00:17:42.480 --> 00:17:45.960 number six of the worst drivers in the United States 311 00:17:46.319 --> 00:17:52.160 with respect to fatalities and also fatalities connected to driving 312 00:17:52.240 --> 00:18:08.000 under the influence. Tucson, arare Zona number five. In any 313 00:18:08.039 --> 00:18:12.960 list of the worst, Mississippi must be represented. Jackson, Mississippi 314 00:18:13.039 --> 00:18:15.240 checks in at number five with fifty six point one 315 00:18:15.480 --> 00:18:24.839 crash score, coming in at number four. California hits the 316 00:18:24.839 --> 00:18:30.079 list with San Bernardissippi. Yeah, sanm Bernissippi. Travel to the 317 00:18:30.119 --> 00:18:31.519 sam Bernissippi? Do you mark? 318 00:18:33.640 --> 00:18:33.799 No? 319 00:18:33.880 --> 00:18:37.599 And I guess I won't be at this rate. Number 320 00:18:38.200 --> 00:18:47.720 that was number four, So number three Macon, Georgia sixty 321 00:18:47.759 --> 00:18:50.839 three point four. If I were to make any type 322 00:18:50.880 --> 00:18:59.200 of grand generalizations, mostly in the South and Southwest, mostly 323 00:19:00.559 --> 00:19:10.160 number two, I said mostly, And here's why not completely Victorville, California, 324 00:19:10.200 --> 00:19:11.759 which is kind of like the South. If you've ever 325 00:19:11.799 --> 00:19:17.920 been to Victorville, it is very South esque South Adjason. Yeah, 326 00:19:18.079 --> 00:19:20.759 it's you could close your eyes and then open it 327 00:19:20.759 --> 00:19:25.599 with like, is this Mississippi? Is this Arkansas? No, it's Victorville. 328 00:19:25.960 --> 00:19:30.000 It's one of the same. I know they do not 329 00:19:30.279 --> 00:19:33.160 like that, but it's true. If you've been to Victorville, 330 00:19:33.799 --> 00:19:41.599 I mean, ooh, it's ooh, love you Victorville not really 331 00:19:41.839 --> 00:19:45.440 coming in in number one of the worst drivers in 332 00:19:45.480 --> 00:20:02.839 these United States with respect to fatalities and drunk driving fatalities. Memphis, 333 00:20:02.839 --> 00:20:07.200 Tennessee must be all on Beal Street. Memphis. I've been 334 00:20:07.200 --> 00:20:09.519 to Memphis, but I haven't really spent a lot of 335 00:20:09.559 --> 00:20:13.920 time to assess it. But you know that I can 336 00:20:14.039 --> 00:20:18.039 see it, but it doesn't seem more dangerous. Maybe they're 337 00:20:18.119 --> 00:20:21.880 just much more permissive. Everyone's loaded. I actually thought LA 338 00:20:21.960 --> 00:20:24.319 would have been on this list. I really did. Sam 339 00:20:24.319 --> 00:20:27.920 Bernardino is not LA, but close enough to LA where 340 00:20:27.960 --> 00:20:29.680 I thought LA would also be on it. 341 00:20:29.960 --> 00:20:33.440 The only reason LA's not on it is because of 342 00:20:33.559 --> 00:20:38.599 the fatalities and the fatalities due to impair driving. We 343 00:20:38.680 --> 00:20:41.119 do have some of the worst driver's hands down. So 344 00:20:41.119 --> 00:20:44.039 if this was just worst drivers that cause like road 345 00:20:44.119 --> 00:20:48.079 rage or double mark Ronners, then yes, this is absolutely 346 00:20:48.480 --> 00:20:52.279 on the list. But our drivers they drive really bad 347 00:20:52.319 --> 00:20:53.400 and they try to kill you. 348 00:20:54.039 --> 00:20:56.720 They're not but they're not. You know, They're kill rader 349 00:20:56.799 --> 00:21:01.599 is not very high. They deserve a round double Mark Ronners. 350 00:21:01.960 --> 00:21:03.759 I'm not sure how I feel about that. You should 351 00:21:03.759 --> 00:21:07.880 be proud. No, let's let's make this one still born. Okay, 352 00:21:08.119 --> 00:21:11.240 cool golle. No, Let's give it a double runner. I 353 00:21:11.400 --> 00:21:13.880 like it. I don't like the bird anymore. I love 354 00:21:13.880 --> 00:21:16.440 a double runner. That's what you're getting. Let's fill in 355 00:21:16.440 --> 00:21:18.680 the list only Monday. What's wrong with you too? 356 00:21:18.720 --> 00:21:18.839 Oh? 357 00:21:18.880 --> 00:21:20.720 We got a long way to go. A long week 358 00:21:20.759 --> 00:21:23.000 for you. Let's fill in the list. Number twenty five 359 00:21:23.039 --> 00:21:27.079 on the list was Knoxville, Tennessee. Twenty four was Dallas. 360 00:21:27.440 --> 00:21:29.680 Here you go, Mark, tell me where this is.

I really 375 00:22:41.440 --> 00:22:44.880 am surprised that they were anywhere that weren't anywhere near 376 00:22:44.920 --> 00:22:45.359 this list. 377 00:22:46.039 --> 00:22:51.400 Nah, not surprising a lot again, bad drivers versus uh 378 00:22:51.720 --> 00:22:55.799 driver fatalities and people drinking and driving California, I. 379 00:22:55.799 --> 00:22:58.920 Mean bad and death or not too far apart. When 380 00:22:58.920 --> 00:23:02.000 I see the people just driving recklessly down the five 381 00:23:02.079 --> 00:23:04.920 Freeway we even in and out, assuming that I see 382 00:23:04.960 --> 00:23:09.400 them motorcycles and actual cars, I'm thinking like, oh, we 383 00:23:09.519 --> 00:23:12.079 have to be racking up the fatalities, if only because 384 00:23:12.559 --> 00:23:17.480 southern California, especially in LA, we have so many freeways. 385 00:23:18.079 --> 00:23:21.240 I'm thinking that there are more fatalities per day than 386 00:23:21.279 --> 00:23:24.839 other big cities, but the data doesn't support that. I 387 00:23:25.000 --> 00:23:26.079 passed by this morning. 388 00:23:26.119 --> 00:23:28.519 I was running late to work because there was a 389 00:23:28.559 --> 00:23:32.680 three car pile up at two ten one to eighteen 390 00:23:33.279 --> 00:23:35.720 five four or five entertains right around there, and it 391 00:23:35.799 --> 00:23:39.400 was horrible. But all three passengers are outside their car 392 00:23:39.519 --> 00:23:40.480 yelling at each other. 393 00:23:40.680 --> 00:23:43.559 Look, I count my lucky stars every day I make 394 00:23:43.599 --> 00:23:46.559 it to work, make it home from work. I do 395 00:23:46.680 --> 00:23:50.640 not take it for granted. There's more distracted driving than ever. 396 00:23:50.680 --> 00:23:54.640 They're more a holes than ever, they're more impatient a 397 00:23:54.759 --> 00:23:57.960 holes than ever. People are just angry all the damn 398 00:23:58.079 --> 00:24:00.880 time on the road and it's like, I don't want 399 00:24:00.880 --> 00:24:03.559 to make eye contact with you. I don't.
