<v Speaker 3>Absolutely, Parker County. He has no Parker County out there.

14
00:00:28.839 --> 00:00:33.240
<v Speaker 3>live roosters after breaking up an illegal cockfighting operation. Now

15
00:00:33.679 --> 00:00:37.679
<v Speaker 3>the Sheriff of Parker County, Sheriff russ espirshly for us.

16
00:00:38.159 --> 00:00:40.560
<v Speaker 3>He says his department got a crime stoppers tip, So

17
00:00:40.679 --> 00:00:42.560
<v Speaker 3>that's good that crime stoppers are still happening.

18
00:00:42.560 --> 00:00:45.640
<v Speaker 2>That's good. Take a bite out of crime please arrive.

19
00:00:45.880 --> 00:00:50.159
<v Speaker 3>Forty people scatter into the woods, least go investigate. They

20
00:00:50.240 --> 00:00:53.880
<v Speaker 3>go into the barn, they see the cockfighting ring, several

21
00:00:53.960 --> 00:00:57.439
<v Speaker 3>dead and wounded roosters, and the owner of the property's

22
00:00:57.439 --> 00:01:00.840
<v Speaker 3>a guy named Jesus. He told investigation that he owned

23
00:01:00.880 --> 00:01:03.320
<v Speaker 3>six of the birds, and he was hosting the event

24
00:01:03.399 --> 00:01:06.200
<v Speaker 3>for work friends, which like us, we're hosting a big

25
00:01:06.239 --> 00:01:08.599
<v Speaker 3>open house up here for work friends at iHeart today.

26
00:01:08.719 --> 00:01:10.959
<v Speaker 2>I think there's going to be some cockfighting, cockfighting out

27
00:01:11.000 --> 00:01:11.519
<v Speaker 2>in the hallway.

28
00:01:12.359 --> 00:01:16.359
<v Speaker 3>Investigators believe he was charging forty dollars per person spectator feet.

29
00:01:16.480 --> 00:01:20.599
<v Speaker 3>They ended up seizing ninety six live roosters, fifty razor

30
00:01:20.680 --> 00:01:23.400
<v Speaker 3>sharp slashers, which they attached to the talon.

31
00:01:24.079 --> 00:01:26.640
<v Speaker 2>Oh that's how I go kill them? Then they you know,

32
00:01:26.719 --> 00:01:27.480
<v Speaker 2>fight to the death.

33
00:01:27.680 --> 00:01:32.079
<v Speaker 3>They also found fifteen thousand dollars believed to be proceeds

34
00:01:32.079 --> 00:01:33.200
<v Speaker 3>from the gambling operation.

35
00:01:33.439 --> 00:01:34.599
<v Speaker 2>Can I yes?

36
00:01:34.680 --> 00:01:40.239
<v Speaker 1>Then I struggle with understanding this one why it's illegal

37
00:01:40.439 --> 00:01:45.159
<v Speaker 1>and and here's why. Okay, if it's a peda thing,

38
00:01:45.319 --> 00:01:48.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, okay, these animals are it's not fair of

39
00:01:48.400 --> 00:01:51.519
<v Speaker 1>these animals. I get that, But what about when we

40
00:01:51.560 --> 00:01:54.599
<v Speaker 1>eat chicken tenders? Well, like, like, are we are we

41
00:01:55.040 --> 00:01:57.680
<v Speaker 1>that emotional about that? Is someone calling crime stoppers over

42
00:01:57.680 --> 00:01:59.400
<v Speaker 1>that too? I'm just trying to understand. No, I think

43
00:01:59.439 --> 00:02:02.680
<v Speaker 1>it's fair. I think there's two reasons it's illegal. One

44
00:02:03.079 --> 00:02:08.360
<v Speaker 1>is because probably three honestly, One is that it's cultural

45
00:02:08.520 --> 00:02:12.080
<v Speaker 1>and it's not a part of mainstream culture. Number two,

46
00:02:12.719 --> 00:02:16.879
<v Speaker 1>it generates money that is not tax just like gambling

47
00:02:17.000 --> 00:02:18.319
<v Speaker 1>or drugs or anything.

48
00:02:18.080 --> 00:02:19.960
<v Speaker 2>Like that with our bags.

49
00:02:20.800 --> 00:02:24.520
<v Speaker 3>And then number three happens to gambling not being money

50
00:02:24.520 --> 00:02:25.240
<v Speaker 3>not being taxed.

51
00:02:25.439 --> 00:02:28.639
<v Speaker 4>What happens all the time. I'm sorry when this happens

52
00:02:28.639 --> 00:02:30.039
<v Speaker 4>all the time. Yeah, it's illegal.

53
00:02:30.280 --> 00:02:32.039
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, but it happens all the time. No, I agree,

54
00:02:32.080 --> 00:02:34.000
<v Speaker 2>And they try to stop it because it's illegal.

55
00:02:34.120 --> 00:02:37.479
<v Speaker 3>It's an unstoppable force. Okay, you want to go have

56
00:02:37.759 --> 00:02:39.759
<v Speaker 3>side bets with your friends, that's untaxed money.

57
00:02:39.800 --> 00:02:43.560
<v Speaker 4>Agreed, But it's illegal. Yeah okay uh. And then number

58
00:02:43.639 --> 00:02:49.759
<v Speaker 4>three I forgot number three animal cruelty. Oh, number three,

59
00:02:49.960 --> 00:02:53.919
<v Speaker 4>animal animal cruelty. Yeah, it is because the idea is

60
00:02:53.960 --> 00:02:57.479
<v Speaker 4>that it again, you are going to kill them to

61
00:02:57.560 --> 00:03:01.280
<v Speaker 4>eat them, but you don't tape blades to their talents

62
00:03:01.280 --> 00:03:02.199
<v Speaker 4>and make them kill each other.

63
00:03:02.280 --> 00:03:04.439
<v Speaker 1>Right, But while they're standing in line waiting to go

64
00:03:04.479 --> 00:03:07.520
<v Speaker 1>get slaughtered so you can eat them there Still it's not.

65
00:03:07.479 --> 00:03:10.280
<v Speaker 2>A great situation for them. I would say, Yeah, slattering

66
00:03:10.319 --> 00:03:13.960
<v Speaker 2>cows is animal cruelty. What's that? Then slaughtering cows animal cruelty?

67
00:03:14.159 --> 00:03:16.159
<v Speaker 2>It's all it's all to me, it's all that's all

68
00:03:16.199 --> 00:03:16.800
<v Speaker 2>animal cruel.

69
00:03:16.840 --> 00:03:18.879
<v Speaker 1>I get it, this is more cruel, but let's not

70
00:03:18.960 --> 00:03:20.800
<v Speaker 1>act like all of it isn't cruel.

71
00:03:20.879 --> 00:03:22.960
<v Speaker 4>No, no, no, I don't disagree with that at all.

72
00:03:23.039 --> 00:03:25.280
<v Speaker 4>But I think there is something too, like, Hey, but

73
00:03:25.439 --> 00:03:29.360
<v Speaker 4>and there's actually some people that are vegetarians that believe

74
00:03:29.479 --> 00:03:33.039
<v Speaker 4>this is that when you are eating the meat that

75
00:03:33.120 --> 00:03:36.919
<v Speaker 4>you eat, you're inhaling the stress of another creature, right, yeah,

76
00:03:36.960 --> 00:03:39.840
<v Speaker 4>And so if you're the very final moments of that creature,

77
00:03:39.960 --> 00:03:41.639
<v Speaker 4>is they have a blade tape to them and they

78
00:03:41.719 --> 00:03:43.599
<v Speaker 4>got to fight for their life.

79
00:03:43.479 --> 00:03:45.599
<v Speaker 1>Or they're in line to be slaughtered while their friends

80
00:03:45.639 --> 00:03:48.240
<v Speaker 1>around them are all slaughtered in that line, you're next,

81
00:03:48.599 --> 00:03:50.360
<v Speaker 1>you know, or the bull fighting you know.

82
00:03:50.599 --> 00:03:54.159
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, So it does beg the question, how much chicken

83
00:03:54.240 --> 00:03:55.639
<v Speaker 2>do you think you've had in your life that was

84
00:03:55.639 --> 00:04:01.159
<v Speaker 2>a direct result of cock fighting. That's surely a small percentage, surely, surely.

85
00:04:02.159 --> 00:04:04.639
<v Speaker 1>But if you're if you're at someone's house and they're

86
00:04:04.719 --> 00:04:06.840
<v Speaker 1>like a world renowned chef and they're like, hey, look

87
00:04:06.879 --> 00:04:10.240
<v Speaker 1>we made some chicken betas, these are actually fighting roosters,

88
00:04:10.280 --> 00:04:13.360
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna say, oh my god, I cannot eat these

89
00:04:13.879 --> 00:04:16.000
<v Speaker 1>these animals died in a cruel.

90
00:04:15.759 --> 00:04:19.720
<v Speaker 2>Way in battle. Oh, I can't eat these, No, it's

91
00:04:19.759 --> 00:04:22.720
<v Speaker 2>gonna say that. No, I just I don't even think

92
00:04:22.759 --> 00:04:27.720
<v Speaker 2>about that part of the meat, the rescue chicken. Do

93

<v Speaker 2>last night? Those are the names the actual roosters that

105
00:05:26.879 --> 00:05:30.240
<v Speaker 2>have suffered. They put a lot of hens in there

106
00:05:30.279 --> 00:05:32.600
<v Speaker 2>and like eggs, like they need to get there, you know,

107
00:05:32.720 --> 00:05:34.560
<v Speaker 2>they need to figure out what the difference between rooster

108
00:05:34.639 --> 00:05:37.199
<v Speaker 2>and it is. So yeah, so is there hen fighting

109
00:05:37.279 --> 00:05:40.399
