your support. What have I told you for years? Rule

10
00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:38,159
number two in journalisming, When the scandal is about a Republican,

11
00:00:39,359 --> 00:00:43,000
then the story is the scandal. When a scandal is

12
00:00:43,039 --> 00:00:49,079
about a Democrat, then the story becomes the Republican reaction

13
00:00:49,399 --> 00:00:55,039
to the scandal, not the scandal. And you are seeing

14
00:00:55,079 --> 00:00:59,000
this very same dynamic play out in the wake of

15
00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:04,560
the Minneapolis Catholic School shooting. It's the same it's the

16
00:01:04,599 --> 00:01:11,840
same mechanic applied in this case. The scandal is the

17
00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:19,480
the ideology that animated this deranged shooter, right like, that's

18
00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:24,239
the that's the scandal. You know, You're you're seeing media

19
00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:29,079
reports that we don't know what the motive may be. Well, no,

20
00:01:29,200 --> 00:01:35,879
we do, actually because unlike with the Tennessee, UH Christian

21
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:42,760
school shooting. I think that was Covenant. They weren't able

22
00:01:42,799 --> 00:01:46,760
to bury the manifesto they were the media was not able,

23
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:51,480
and law enforcement was not able to hide it because

24
00:01:51,959 --> 00:01:57,920
this deranged maniac up in Minnesota posted it all on

25
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:02,760
YouTube and then you YouTube did take it down shortly

26
00:02:02,799 --> 00:02:06,760
after the shootings or the shooting, but people had gotten

27
00:02:06,799 --> 00:02:13,319
it before YouTube wiped it, so we know now. I'm

28
00:02:13,319 --> 00:02:16,719
not saying that this person was a you know, a

29
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:21,560
sane Democrat kind of a person that I'm not saying that.

30
00:02:21,639 --> 00:02:24,800
What I am saying is that he was animated by

31
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:30,199
the catastrophism that is preached by the Democrats and the media.

32
00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:34,719
But I repeat myself, and had this person been, say,

33
00:02:34,759 --> 00:02:41,680
a Tea partier, a Trump supporter, a proud boy trying

34
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:45,639
to think of a J sixer, right, like any any

35
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:53,520
affiliation that this deranged maniac had to the right, that

36
00:02:53,560 --> 00:03:00,360
would then prompt the focus on the ideology that animated him. Right,

37
00:03:00,439 --> 00:03:05,400
He's obviously insane. He was insane, and then he just

38
00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:10,560
layers in all of this, uh, these the ideology, but

39
00:03:10,639 --> 00:03:14,840
also like these narratives and this feeling that he has

40
00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:18,800
no other choice. He's filled with regret as well for

41
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:25,039
previous choices. But he's also deranged, right he he obviously

42
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:31,199
is insane. And I'm not saying that all people who

43
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:34,479
agree with different components of what he was talking about

44
00:03:34,719 --> 00:03:37,560
that somehow or another, like they're all homicidal maniacs. I'm

45
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:40,960
not saying that. However, just like the shooting of the

46
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:45,199
Republicans on the ball field years ago that uh, you know,

47
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:47,599
the shooter was screaming, this is for healthcare. He was

48
00:03:47,599 --> 00:03:51,240
a Bernie bro and he too was animated by this

49
00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:57,080
political ideology. Ben Shapiro calls it the omni cause, right

50
00:03:57,120 --> 00:04:05,080
where all of these different uh oppressed, self identified oppressed constituencies, right,

51
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:10,080
they all rally under the Democrat banner, and hey, you're oppressed.

52
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:13,919
I'm oppressed. We're intersectionally oppressed. And the answer to the

53
00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:17,560
oppression is to tear down all of the institutions in

54
00:04:17,879 --> 00:04:24,199
Western society and you know, institute Marxism of some brand,

55
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:28,399
and that will solve all of the problems. Because as

56
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:32,000
James Lindsay frequently says, and I do as well now

57
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:34,720
because he said it, and I thought that's exactly right,

58
00:04:34,759 --> 00:04:37,120
which is the issue is never the issue. The issue

59
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:40,480
is always the revolution, So you just layer on all

60
00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:45,480
of these different causes. And when you see the videos

61
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:50,639
that this maniac produced, you see the journals that the

62
00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:54,720
maniac wrote, you listen to the things that the maniac

63
00:04:54,920 --> 00:05:00,839
says in his videos, it is a check let of

64
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:06,959
every one of the leftist talking points and positions. All

65
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:12,079
of them are in there. You've got obviously, the threat

66
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:20,319
to kill the president multiple times. Where is your God?

67
00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:24,240
Was another one that he wrote on his weapons on

68
00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:28,199
a or actually on a magazine for the weapon why

69
00:05:28,319 --> 00:05:33,360
so Querious? Apparently a reference to a piece of music.

70
00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:41,000
Several references to Israel, including a smoke bomb where he

71
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:47,040
wrote extra thick jew gas burn Israel was another six million,

72
00:05:47,199 --> 00:05:50,800
wasn't enough? Wrote that on a holster. He also had

73
00:05:51,399 --> 00:05:53,959
a whole bunch of stickers on one page, and it

74
00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:56,560
took me a minute to realize when I was seeing it, like,

75
00:05:57,600 --> 00:05:59,439
what's up with this sticker? I'm not talking about the

76
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:04,199
gay Prize transflag with the assault rifle as part of

77
00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:07,439
the flag. I'm not talking about that. I'm not talking

78
00:06:07,439 --> 00:06:12,040
about the picture of Jesus Christ that he had put

79
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:16,439
on the top of his target practice silhouette. And then

80
00:06:16,519 --> 00:06:20,800
stabbed it with a knife, not talking about that. They

81
00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:25,000
were stickers of a video game character. Do you know

82
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:30,040
what video game Super Mario Brothers? Do you know who

83
00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:36,199
the brother of Mario is? Luigi? It was only Luigi,

84
00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:42,879
like seven eight stickers of Luigi, all in clustered on

85
00:06:42,879 --> 00:06:48,360
one page. What's that about? What do you think that's about? Well,

86
00:06:48,360 --> 00:06:53,000
that's the guy who murdered the healthcare ceo, shot him

87
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:59,800
in the back. Also deranged maniac Luigi Mangoni. See what

88
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:03,560
I mean? All of these things, all of the stuff

89
00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:07,639
that was animating him in his psychosis, These are all

90
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:09,879
things of the left. These are all things that are

91
00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:17,920
celebrated and heralded inside of left wing ideology. So that's

92
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:20,839
why there has to be a deflection. We can't talk

93
00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:25,319
about any of the stuff that may have helped propel

94
00:07:25,399 --> 00:07:29,319
this guy towards his end. No, it's got to be

95
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:32,959
about the reaction to the scandal, and that brings us

96
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:38,639
to the attacks on people of faith and Republicans who

97
00:07:38,759 --> 00:07:43,600
offer up prayers, and then also that leads to the

98
00:07:43,639 --> 00:07:47,839
attack on gun ownership. So when the scandal is about

99
00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:52,279
the left, the story is the Republican reaction, and that's

100
00:07:52,279 --> 00:07:54,519
what we're seeing right now. All right, So you've heard

101
00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:57,079
me talk about Creative Video for almost a year. But

102
00:07:57,199 --> 00:07:59,839
did you know they also offer a game changing app

103
00:08:00,079 --> 00:08:03,399
or businesses that reward their teams with incentive trips. Well

104
00:08:03,399 --> 00:08:06,120
they do. It's called Incentive trip Kit. If you want

105
00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:09,040
a business or work at one that offers these incentive trips,

106
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:12,279
this is a must have. It maximizes the impact and

107
00:08:12,399 --> 00:08:15,439
value of these motivational trips. It's a super easy to

108
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:18,879
use app built just for your group, with private messaging,

109
00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:22,839
shared photos, important trip documents, even a find the group

110
00:08:22,959 --> 00:08:25,759
locator just in case somebody gets separated. And when I

111
00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:28,360
say it's private, I mean it. No personal emails, no

112
00:08:28,519 --> 00:08:32,279
phone numbers, no ads, no account sign ups. Everyone uses

113
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:35,480
one shared login, so it's super easy, no hassles. During

114
00:08:35,519 --> 00:08:38,000
the trip, everybody can post their best photos and short

115
00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:40,240
video clips, and folks back at the office can even

116
00:08:40,279 --> 00:08:43,000
follow along. And then after the trip, Incentive trip Kit

117
00:08:43,159 --> 00:08:46,519
turns those memories into a professional storytelling video you can

118
00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:49,440
use to motivate, inspire, and get people fired up for

119
00:08:49,519 --> 00:08:53,600
next year's trip. More fun, more memories, more ROI check

eric At eight eight, eight, five three three seventy six

122
00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:04,679
thirty Extension two O seven for the details. The maniac

123
00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:12,080
in Minneapolis had said goodbye to his family and friends.

124
00:09:12,159 --> 00:09:15,440
He said, I have waited for this. I've waited this

125
00:09:15,919 --> 00:09:18,840
for so long, Okay, waited for this for so long.

126
00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:21,960
I am not well, I am not right. I am

127
00:09:22,039 --> 00:09:24,720
a sad person, haunted by these thoughts that do not

128
00:09:24,879 --> 00:09:27,440
go away. I know this is wrong, but I can't

129
00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:31,159
seem to stop myself. I am severely depressed, and I've

130
00:09:31,279 --> 00:09:35,919
been suicidal for years. Only recently I have lost all

131
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:39,840
hope and decided to perform my final action against this world.

132
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:43,120
I don't want to kneel down for the injustices of

133
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:45,879
this world. I want to die. I'd rather die on

134
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:48,399
my feet than live on my knees constantly in pain.

135
00:09:48,799 --> 00:09:53,919
See the tendency for interpersonal victimhood. That's what this is.

136
00:09:54,879 --> 00:09:59,279
This is someone trapped inside of his own head and

137
00:10:00,279 --> 00:10:04,000
views himself as a victim and only a victim of

138
00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:08,200
all the world. And that is a message that is

139
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:14,720
constantly hammered home by leftist ideology, that you are being oppressed,

140
00:10:15,279 --> 00:10:18,120
that all the world needs to be seen through this prism.

141
00:10:19,519 --> 00:10:23,159
You are cranking out more and more of these people

142
00:10:23,279 --> 00:10:26,240
with this kind of mentality. Now, I'm not saying everybody

143
00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:29,080
again picks up arms and goes and murders people. I'm

144
00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:36,159
saying this is the victimhood mindset more than seven years.

145
00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:39,320
This is from NBC News. So that's why they're gonna

146
00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:41,840
call the shooter or a she, which I'm not actually

147
00:10:41,919 --> 00:10:44,360
sure that you are respecting his pronouns at this point,

148
00:10:44,399 --> 00:10:48,919
because he said he was no longer trans. Yeah, and

149
00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:50,559
he said he wanted to chop his hair off, but

150
00:10:50,639 --> 00:10:55,559
it was the last little bit left of his femaleness

151
00:10:55,720 --> 00:10:59,840
or something. Right. The guy obviously had serious mental issues

152
00:10:59,879 --> 00:11:04,159
for a long time. The answer was not to juice

153
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:08,879
him up with synthetic hormones. But that's what you do

154
00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:14,480
in Minneapolis, Minnesota, especially right A refuge self declared announced

155
00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:20,840
with great fanfare that they're a refuge for this. More

156
00:11:20,919 --> 00:11:24,320
than seven years before the shooting, police were called to

157
00:11:24,399 --> 00:11:27,039
a townhouse in the Twin City suburb where he lived

158
00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:30,960
with his mother. I'm changing the pronouns back to him

159
00:11:31,120 --> 00:11:34,919
because it's a dude. It was a dude. The heavily

160
00:11:35,039 --> 00:11:39,960
redacted police report obtained by NBC from the police department

161
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:44,480
in Egan, Minnesota, dated January twenty sixth, twenty eighteen, includes

162
00:11:44,519 --> 00:11:47,799
a two word description explaining why an officer was dispatched

163
00:11:47,799 --> 00:11:51,440
to that address and says mental health. It includes a

164
00:11:51,519 --> 00:11:56,320
brief synopsis that reads assisted Mendota Heights with a zech

165
00:11:56,519 --> 00:12:01,320
welfare of a juvenile, Name of that juvenile and what

166
00:12:01,399 --> 00:12:03,840
exactly prompted police to be summoned to the three bedroom

167
00:12:03,879 --> 00:12:06,559
home on Crane Creek Lane were blacked out in the report.

168
00:12:07,159 --> 00:12:10,600
Two years before the mental health call, police responded to

169
00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:13,279
a report of a criminal offense at the residents, but

170
00:12:13,399 --> 00:12:16,519
beyond noting that the case was closed, the report blacks

171
00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:22,799
out all the details describing the event. The shooter, NBC says,

172
00:12:22,919 --> 00:12:26,720
was a trans woman, but was he? He said he

173
00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:32,440
wasn't anymore so, NBC, you're being very I don't know

174
00:12:32,519 --> 00:12:38,399
what the word untransphobic. You're not respecting his pronouns, which

175
00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:40,919
media is falling all over themselves to do in the

176
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:44,320
wake of the of the attack, is for some reason,

177
00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:49,120
to honor the murderer by respecting his pronouns in the

178
00:12:49,159 --> 00:12:52,600
fear that it's going to cause some triggering event for

179
00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:57,840
some other person. Right, the coddling that occurs. This is

180
00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:04,759
why people argue that the radical transgenderism has an ideology

181
00:13:05,759 --> 00:13:11,960
it is by its nature transgressive against everybody. Because it's

182
00:13:12,039 --> 00:13:14,159
not enough for you to just live and let live.

183
00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:19,159
You have to affirm, you have to play along, and

184
00:13:19,279 --> 00:13:24,159
if you don't, well, radical transgender ideology says that that

185
00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:26,840
is violence against them, that you're trying to make them

186
00:13:26,919 --> 00:13:30,720
kill themselves, and so therefore I need to fight you back.

187
00:13:30,799 --> 00:13:35,799
And so this is you know, literally life threatening for them.

188
00:13:36,639 --> 00:13:39,559
And if it is life threatening for them, well then

189
00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:43,759
that allows them to do stuff to save their own lives,

190
00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:47,039
to take out those threats. I didn't. This is not

191
00:13:47,200 --> 00:13:50,360
me making this stuff up. This is what they espouse.

192
00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:55,799
In fact, there's some trans magazine that just published front page,

193
00:13:56,480 --> 00:14:01,840
terrible timing, some transgender sitting on the front page with

194
00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:05,679
a whole bunch of weaponry talking about we're bashing back.

195
00:14:06,159 --> 00:14:06,559
Speaker 2: You know, like.

196
00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:15,320
Speaker 1: Remember the Zizians, remember those guys transgender murder cult murdered

197
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:19,360
or yeah, they murdered like eight people or something from California.

198
00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:21,799
Although we up to the border patrol in Vermont or

199
00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:27,799
New Hampshire. Yeah, this is a growing problem and the

200
00:14:27,879 --> 00:14:30,919
left does not want to address it because it involves

201
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:36,120
one of their protected classes and they share ideology and

202
00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:43,840
so must deflect. Now, the NBC report notes that Minnesota

203
00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:48,679
has a red flag law, but nothing ever tripped it.

204
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:51,639
There was never any reason to suspect that this person

205
00:14:51,679 --> 00:14:57,159
who was depressed and suicidal for years, no family member

206
00:14:57,240 --> 00:15:01,480
reported that as a potential red flag. Minneapolis Police Chief

207
00:15:01,519 --> 00:15:06,200
Brian O'Hara said yesterday that authorities do not have information

208
00:15:07,039 --> 00:15:10,039
indicating that he suffered from any mental illness other than

209
00:15:10,159 --> 00:15:13,879
a traffic ticket he didn't have. Besides the traffic ticket,

210
00:15:13,919 --> 00:15:17,879
he had no police record, right, So there's no indication

211
00:15:18,039 --> 00:15:20,600
that he suffered from mental illness except for the you know,

212
00:15:21,519 --> 00:15:27,840
the journals, the YouTube videos, right, the transgenderism like that

213
00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:31,519
right there, your dysmorphia, like that's that's a mental health issue.

214
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:37,480
O'Hara also added that the family has been cooperating with investigators,

215
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:42,320
but they have not yet located his mother, who, by

216
00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:47,120
the way, according to the New York Post, she's ghosting.

217
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:51,080
She went and got a lawyer, and she's ghosting the FBI.

218
00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:54,639
So I don't know what to make of this police

219
00:15:54,759 --> 00:15:59,799
chief here. Brian O'Hara when you tell me that we

220
00:16:00,039 --> 00:16:02,879
don't have any idea, we have no indication, no information

221
00:16:03,679 --> 00:16:06,759
that he suffered from mental illness. When I can look

222
00:16:06,759 --> 00:16:10,360
at the videos and identify within about twenty seconds, oh yeah,

223
00:16:10,399 --> 00:16:13,159
that's a crazy person. That is an evil, deranged person

224
00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:16,759
right there. And then you turn around and say, oh,

225
00:16:16,799 --> 00:16:22,200
the family's cooperating. But mommy got a lawyer. She's in Florida,

226
00:16:23,159 --> 00:16:26,960
and she's not home when the FBI shows up, So

227
00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:29,480
they searched her place by the way, and they took

228
00:16:29,519 --> 00:16:31,919
a bunch of stuff out of her house. Now, look,

229
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:35,480
probably a good idea to get a lawyer, but also

230
00:16:35,519 --> 00:16:38,279
probably a good idea to then cooperate with law enforcement

231
00:16:39,279 --> 00:16:41,360
so it doesn't look like you're trying to hide something,

232
00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:43,519
and you can go through your lawyer to do that.

233
00:16:43,639 --> 00:16:47,639
That's very advisable, actually. But when you get a lawyer,

234
00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:52,639
he puts out he puts out a statement that saying

235
00:16:52,679 --> 00:16:55,799
that she had no culpability in the shooting. And that

236
00:16:55,879 --> 00:16:58,159
may be true legally, don't know about morally. Don't know

237
00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:00,759
if there were signs that she thought she was seeing

238
00:17:00,879 --> 00:17:03,360
but didn't say anything or whatever, or maybe she gave

239
00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:06,000
him money that he used to buy the weapons. I

240
00:17:06,079 --> 00:17:11,119
don't know, but so far her behavior is a little.

241
00:17:11,279 --> 00:17:14,640
As the kids would say, sus here's a great idea.

242
00:17:14,839 --> 00:17:17,519
How about making an escape to a really special and

243

264
00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:32,720
interesting that even after resolving he was going to die

265
00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:36,240
carrying out his twisted plan, the fear of backlash from

266
00:18:36,279 --> 00:18:38,839
the trans community for cutting his hair still had so

267
00:18:39,119 --> 00:18:41,960
much power over him. That says a lot about the

268
00:18:42,079 --> 00:18:48,119
acceptance and tolerance of the trans community. The New York

269
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:51,359
Times ran an article with basic information on the shooting

270
00:18:53,519 --> 00:18:59,720
with one exception. You want to guess what it was right?

271
00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:04,000
He was trans. He was a he, but they wrote

272
00:19:04,039 --> 00:19:11,000
it as a she. He had hatred for Jews that

273
00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:16,279
was scrawled all over his books and his weaponry. He

274
00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:20,519
hated Elon Musk as well, made references to Elon Musk

275
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:28,920
killing the President. He also lamented his own transition, saying

276
00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:31,880
that he was tired of being trans and that he

277
00:19:32,039 --> 00:19:39,799
was brainwashed into thinking he was a woman. NBC I

278
00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:43,759
was reading from this article. Earlier, NBC reports that the

279
00:19:43,839 --> 00:19:47,440
police are reviewing the online videos in which the shooter

280
00:19:47,599 --> 00:19:53,359
scrawled racial slurs, a homophobic slur, anti Semitic messages, a

281
00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:56,799
call for President Donald Trump's death, and references to the

282
00:19:56,880 --> 00:20:02,359
Holocaust and the Catholic Church references to the Holocaust. Note

283
00:20:02,559 --> 00:20:08,160
the sanitizing nature of this description. References to the Holocaust, Well,

284
00:20:08,200 --> 00:20:10,839
what would that mean? Well, he said six million Jews

285
00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:14,240
wasn't enough, That's what. So in other words, he was

286
00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:20,880
pro Holocaust, wanted more Jews to be murdered. The video

287
00:20:21,079 --> 00:20:23,680
shows the suspect flipping through the pages of a journal

288
00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:28,720
written in English but using the cyrillic alphabet. At times,

289
00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:32,680
he utters the word kashmar, which is the Russian word

290
00:20:32,799 --> 00:20:36,960
for nightmare. He discusses the mechanics of mass school shootings

291
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:41,559
as well as suicide. A person who went to Minneapolis's

292
00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:46,920
Southwest High School with the shooter and described her him

293
00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:50,799
as quote a bit of a strange person with a

294
00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:56,039
dark sense of humor. But she said she never heard

295
00:20:56,519 --> 00:20:59,559
the shooter make any jokes about shootings or guns, but

296
00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:03,359
he often mumbled in what the person believed was Russian.

297
00:21:05,559 --> 00:21:07,960
She said, many people do and say strange things in

298
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:11,200
their teenage years, so many people just saw it as

299
00:21:11,319 --> 00:21:16,680
him just trying to be edgy or funny. In the journal,

300
00:21:19,039 --> 00:21:23,880
the shooter says that he began pondering mass murder in

301
00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:30,119
the seventh grade. He was in his twenties, he was

302
00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:33,839
like twenty three, I believe, So in the seventh grade

303
00:21:34,799 --> 00:21:38,680
he starts pondering this, and in particular, he became fixated

304
00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:43,519
on the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting in Connecticut back

305
00:21:43,559 --> 00:21:47,640
in twenty twelve, which I mentioned yesterday. This is one

306
00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:55,319
of the hallmarks of these types of murderers. They keep score,

307
00:21:56,640 --> 00:22:02,720
They analyze and review and critique these mass murderers, their style,

308
00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:07,079
their plan of attack, and all of this stuff, and

309
00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:09,720
then they start making references that like, this is how

310
00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:14,039
I would have done it right, And this is why

311
00:22:14,279 --> 00:22:17,000
I don't name these people, because I don't want to.

312
00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:18,680
This is also, by the way, you ever notice this

313
00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:23,799
that media doesn't report suicides, and there's a reason for

314
00:22:23,880 --> 00:22:26,480
that is that the studies show that the more you

315
00:22:27,559 --> 00:22:31,839
publicize this stuff, then it becomes a social contagion and

316
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:38,720
people then begin copycatting. And media determined decades ago not

317
00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:41,759
to participate in that and so if there is a

318
00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:45,440
suicide that occurs, we don't report that unless there's some

319
00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:50,720
sort of larger impact, like a person, you know, jumping

320
00:22:50,799 --> 00:22:53,559
off of a bridge and it stops traffic or something.

321
00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:56,599
But even then you will just hear the media reports

322
00:22:56,720 --> 00:23:00,960
something like police activity. You don't. We don't give any

323
00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:06,559
sunlight to a person's effort at self harm. We don't

324
00:23:06,599 --> 00:23:11,119
do it. And that's what I view these as. So

325
00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:18,359
that's why I don't name the shooters, because they do

326
00:23:19,079 --> 00:23:25,519
participate in a social contagion. Now, it's also interesting to

327
00:23:25,599 --> 00:23:32,960
note this Catholic school did not have any armed security. However,

328
00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:38,000
two years ago, the leaders of independent schools and Catholic

329
00:23:38,079 --> 00:23:42,920
schools in Minnesota went to the Democrat Governor Tim Walls

330
00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:48,079
to try to secure funding for their schools. They wrote

331
00:23:48,079 --> 00:23:51,680
them a letter. They had a meeting. It was dated

332
00:23:51,759 --> 00:23:55,960
April fourteenth, twenty twenty three. The president of Men Dependent

333
00:23:56,319 --> 00:24:01,039
and that guy's name is Tim Bens. Along with Jason Adkins,

334
00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:05,319
the executive director of the Minnesota Catholic Conference, they co

335
00:24:05,519 --> 00:24:08,920
authored this letter to the governor saying there are about

336
00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:15,680
seventy two thousand students that are enrolled in independent Catholic Jewish, Christian,

337
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:21,160
and Muslim non public schools in Minnesota, and they wrote

338
00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:24,039
this letter right after the shooting at a Christian school

339
00:24:24,079 --> 00:24:29,880
in Tennessee, which was also carried out by a transgender person.

340
00:24:30,799 --> 00:24:34,000
The leaders specifically called on the governor for assistance in

341
00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:37,960
making sure not only that the Minnesota legislature enacts his

342
00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:41,680
budget recommendation, which had fifty million dollars in it to

343
00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:47,279
establish the Building and Cybersecurity grant program, but also that

344
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:51,359
this program include all schools as eligible for funding, regardless

345
00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:53,880
of whether these schools are public, charters or non public.

346
00:24:54,000 --> 00:24:57,039
So Walls's budget had fifty million dollars in it for

347
00:24:57,240 --> 00:24:59,880
this grant program, and they were trying to get the

348
00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:04,599
non public schools to also get some funding for security.

349
00:25:04,839 --> 00:25:11,079
In the wake of the Covenant shooting. Atkins told The

350
00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:15,680
Daily Wire after the shooting in Minneapolis that no additional

351
00:25:15,759 --> 00:25:20,319
security was ever funded, even though the money existed. He said, quote,

352
00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:23,079
it's a lack of will to do it by elected officials,

353
00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:27,279
coupled with opposition by some legislators because non public schools

354
00:25:27,319 --> 00:25:30,839
students were included in the funding. In other words, it's

355
00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:37,240
government schools or nothing. We will not help provide security

356
00:25:37,319 --> 00:25:41,359
for kids unless they come to gov CO schools. Right, So,

357
00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:44,200
when you hear the LEFT in the wake of one

358
00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:46,920
of these tragedies, in the wake of one of these shootings,

359
00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:51,359
and they say do something, and then you get a

360
00:25:51,519 --> 00:25:55,799
response of hey, here's something that we could do. Oh

361
00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:58,319
not that we want you to do what we want

362
00:25:58,799 --> 00:26:01,400
to have done. That's what we mean. We don't mean

363
00:26:01,519 --> 00:26:04,880
do something, We mean do my thing. Do the thing

364
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:08,720
that I want done, which is give me your guns,

365
00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:13,480
disarm everybody, go around and collect all the guns or something,

366
00:26:13,599 --> 00:26:17,680
send law enforcement to seize everyone's guns. That's what they

367
00:26:17,759 --> 00:26:21,160
actually mean. The budget had an eighteen billion dollar surplus

368
00:26:21,759 --> 00:26:24,400
and they couldn't scrape together fifty million of it to

369
00:26:24,559 --> 00:26:27,440
help fund security at schools like the one that was

370
00:26:27,559 --> 00:26:30,200
just attacked. All Right, if you're listening to this show,

371
00:26:30,279 --> 00:26:31,839
you know I try to keep up with all sorts

372
00:26:31,839 --> 00:26:33,759
of current events, and I know you do too, And

373
00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:38,680
you've probably heard me say get your news from multiple sources. Why, Well,

374
00:26:38,759 --> 00:26:41,440
because it's how you detect media bias, which is why

375
00:26:41,519 --> 00:26:44,680
I've been so impressed with ground News. It's an app

376
00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:48,119
and it's a website, and it combines news from around

377
00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:50,559
the world in one place so you can compare coverage

378
00:26:50,839 --> 00:26:53,519
and verify information. You could check it out at check

379
00:26:53,759 --> 00:26:57,960

381
00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:03,880
a few months ago and more recently chose to work

382
00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:05,839
with them as an affiliate because it lets me see

383
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:09,799
clearly how stories get covered and by whom. The blind

00:27:09,839 --> 00:27:12,599

391
00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:38,000
Let's jump over to the phones, shall we. Dean, Welcome

392
00:27:38,079 --> 00:27:41,079
to the program. Hello Dean, Hi Pete.

393
00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:44,079
Speaker 2: Hope you have a nice holiday this week.

394
00:27:44,039 --> 00:27:47,640
Speaker 1: And you as well. May your labor be minimal, okay,

395
00:27:47,839 --> 00:27:48,920
and may.

396
00:27:48,839 --> 00:27:55,279
Speaker 2: Your confrontations be zero? Oh okay, sure, I was just

397
00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:59,000
listening to all of this and I don't know, I've

398
00:27:59,079 --> 00:28:01,960
heard this call on about you know, with people and

399
00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:05,519
and the shootings and everything forever and I and I

400
00:28:05,599 --> 00:28:09,359
don't think it's like a legislative or a positioning. I

401
00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:12,640
think it's in I think it's a condition of people.

402
00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:17,799
I think it's in their DNA. There's good and there's evil.

403
00:28:18,279 --> 00:28:22,480
But I think what influences them is there were all

404
00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:26,680
products of our environment to a certain extent or to

405
00:28:26,759 --> 00:28:31,000
a great extent, I feel, and our environment is changing

406
00:28:31,559 --> 00:28:36,119
and as long as we uh, the environment encourages this

407
00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:40,839
kind of activity through the media, through the discussions, through

408
00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:45,920
the uh, the you know, uh an ability to act

409
00:28:46,039 --> 00:28:48,640
on any of this by you know, the government, you know,

410
00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:51,039
uh focused kind of action.

411
00:28:51,359 --> 00:28:55,400
Speaker 1: So right, So if I agree you're I mean, you've

412
00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:59,759
hit both of the nature and nurture components and that yes,

413
00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:03,680
because it's not either or. So what would be the

414
00:29:03,759 --> 00:29:11,519
way to combat this natural instinctive kind of urge that

415
00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:14,359
you say people have, Like, what, what's the way to

416
00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:17,000
deal with that at a personal level?

417
00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:24,519
Speaker 2: I don't know, you know, I hate to be negative

418
00:29:24,559 --> 00:29:27,400
about this thing, but you know, sometimes the easiest course

419
00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:29,920
of action is not always the best course of action.

420
00:29:30,599 --> 00:29:35,240
And it's a lot easier to dislike someone or you know,

421
00:29:37,200 --> 00:29:40,319
not like their views, not like them for their views.

422
00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:44,319
Then there is this show compassion or understanding or listening.

423
00:29:45,839 --> 00:29:48,359
I don't know, I really sincerely don't know.

424
00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:50,359
Speaker 1: Well, I think you do because I think you use

425
00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:54,519
the language right at the very beginning of your comments. Yeah,

426
00:29:54,920 --> 00:29:58,880
you said evil, And if you're going to say evil,

427
00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:01,759
if you were, if you had knowledge that evil exists,

428
00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:05,039
what does that mean? What is evil?

429
00:30:06,839 --> 00:30:13,279
Speaker 2: Ah? Well, to me, it's it's like doing doing something

430
00:30:13,319 --> 00:30:15,480
to someone else that you wouldn't want done to you.

431
00:30:16,720 --> 00:30:20,359
Speaker 1: That's what you're that's what you think. So okay, well

432
00:30:20,599 --> 00:30:22,039
you are not in everyday.

433
00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:24,759
Speaker 2: Little things, not like just in greetings or something, but

434
00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:27,359
you know things that that make that make a difference,

435
00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:29,680
that are of the magnitude of.

436
00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:34,000
Speaker 1: You know, right, So where right? What's the right?

437
00:30:34,079 --> 00:30:34,119
Speaker 2: So?

438
00:30:34,319 --> 00:30:37,559
Speaker 1: But what what makes it evil? Evil is a degree

439
00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:41,640
of bad. It is the worst degree of bad. And

440
00:30:41,799 --> 00:30:44,319
so where so, so where do you draw that line?

441
00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:45,680
Where does that come from?

442
00:30:49,599 --> 00:30:52,440
Speaker 2: It comes from? To me, it comes from from all

443
00:30:52,519 --> 00:30:53,319
different areas.

444
00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:55,880
Speaker 1: And that so do you believe much as do you

445
00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:56,559
believe in God?

446
00:30:57,799 --> 00:30:58,000
Speaker 2: Yes?

447
00:30:58,279 --> 00:31:03,440
Speaker 1: Do you believe in Satan? You can't believe in one

448
00:31:03,519 --> 00:31:06,599
without the other, I suspect, Well, no, no, it's like.

449
00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:08,799
Speaker 2: A default thing. You know, you can't believe that light

450
00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:10,559
is on unless you can believe it's off.

451
00:31:11,279 --> 00:31:14,920
Speaker 1: So I would submit that evil is from Satan.

452
00:31:16,119 --> 00:31:18,559
Speaker 2: Well you know, yeah, But and I don't want to

453
00:31:18,599 --> 00:31:23,599
get into theological thing. I'm not but God doesn't really,

454
00:31:24,119 --> 00:31:27,960
you know. I mean, he's there and Satan's there and

455
00:31:28,039 --> 00:31:31,759
their entities, but it's it's not they're not making decisions

456
00:31:31,839 --> 00:31:32,200
for us.

457
00:31:32,359 --> 00:31:35,160
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that. I'm not saying that either. But

458
00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:39,680
if you believe that that this is part of who

459
00:31:39,799 --> 00:31:44,279
we are as human beings, right, and that evil exists

460
00:31:44,359 --> 00:31:48,799
and Satan exists, then do you rule out the idea

461
00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:54,000
that Satan works through people in different ways. Yes, Satan

462
00:31:54,079 --> 00:31:59,440
can influence people, yes, right, So so.

463
00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:01,880
Speaker 2: I gotta believe God can influence people for the good.

464
00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:07,039
Speaker 1: Do you I don't think do you think God can

465
00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:07,880
change your life?

466
00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:12,640
Speaker 2: I think you can embrace God and change your life,

467
00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:16,519
just as people, these people that do these mass murders

468
00:32:16,559 --> 00:32:19,640
embrace evil and it changes their lives. I don't think

469
00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:22,839
this kid at two years old started out like that.

470
00:32:24,599 --> 00:32:27,799
Speaker 1: Well no, I've seen no evidence that says he started out.

471
00:32:27,960 --> 00:32:30,599
I mean, he says in seventh grade he started plotting

472
00:32:31,319 --> 00:32:33,559
the mass murders so, I mean, we've got in.

473
00:32:33,599 --> 00:32:38,960
Speaker 2: The environment now nowadays encourages that. I mean, it's you know,

474
00:32:39,799 --> 00:32:42,400
I can't you can't turn time back. I agree with you.

475
00:32:42,599 --> 00:32:46,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I mean, but you're also ignoring millennia where

476
00:32:47,079 --> 00:32:51,039
people slaughtered each other. In Earlier this week, I did

477
00:32:51,079 --> 00:32:55,000
this very topic talking about the slaughtering of Christians and

478
00:32:55,119 --> 00:32:59,960
Jews all across two thirds of Christendom by the Muslim

479
00:33:00,839 --> 00:33:04,599
and the stories of those battles and the way and

480
00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:07,960
the things that they did to people are horrific. I

481
00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:13,799
would submit evil, yes, right, So I would submit also

482
00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:18,079
then that the remedy is to, as you called it,

483
00:33:18,240 --> 00:33:23,119
embrace God and then let God help you, let God

484
00:33:23,319 --> 00:33:26,240
into your life, and then you would probably be less

485
00:33:26,359 --> 00:33:28,559
likely to pal around with Satan so much.

486
00:33:30,039 --> 00:33:30,240
Speaker 2: Yeah.

487
00:33:30,480 --> 00:33:35,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, so I think then as individuals may be more

488
00:33:35,559 --> 00:33:39,680
embracing of God and the good and that might help

489
00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:42,079
tamp some of this down. Not all cases, I mean,

490
00:33:42,119 --> 00:33:44,039
evil will always be here, so it's not going to

491
00:33:44,079 --> 00:33:46,119
get rid of all of it, but that might be helpful. Dean,

492
00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:49,920
I appreciate the call. All right, that'll do it for

493
00:33:50,079 --> 00:33:52,720

494
00:33:52,759 --> 00:33:55,000
