Joe Jecker summing up how I feel 5 00:00:33.840 --> 00:00:37.960 this morning. Brian Thomas fishing, everybody got happy Tuesdays. I 6 00:00:38.000 --> 00:00:40.600 typically start the program with got to try to make 7 00:00:40.640 --> 00:00:42.280 it one anyway, it's gonna be interesting day to day 8 00:00:42.320 --> 00:00:44.159 here in the fifty five KRC Morning show, Joe Warming, 9 00:00:44.200 --> 00:00:46.320 he said, you got a full schedule tomorrow, which I 10 00:00:46.320 --> 00:00:48.479 always like hearing, and then I come in and find out, Yeah, 11 00:00:48.479 --> 00:00:50.679 I got a full schedule. It's some great guests lined up. 12 00:00:51.159 --> 00:00:55.799 Christopher Smithman Volume two this morning, felt the need to 13 00:00:55.880 --> 00:00:59.119 respond to some online attack he's been receiving, calling him 14 00:00:59.159 --> 00:01:05.400 a Maga Republican, which based upon my exchange with Christopher yesterday, 15 00:01:05.400 --> 00:01:06.959 this was after the show. Of course he does the 16 00:01:07.159 --> 00:01:13.879 Monday Morning Spleen. Then is I guess in some way, 17 00:01:13.879 --> 00:01:18.040 shape or form within the black community basically calling him 18 00:01:18.040 --> 00:01:21.840 an uncle Tom. Christopher doesn't take real well to being 19 00:01:21.879 --> 00:01:26.640 attacked in that light, and it's an undeserved attack anyway. 20 00:01:26.799 --> 00:01:29.239 So Christopher, come on at six thirty in Ventis Spleen 21 00:01:29.480 --> 00:01:31.120 Round two. I always look forward to having him on 22 00:01:31.120 --> 00:01:32.959 the program, regardless of what day of the week it is. 23 00:01:33.079 --> 00:01:37.359 Ken Blackwell Love Ken Blackwell seven oh five With Ken, 24 00:01:37.879 --> 00:01:40.280 He's going to give a response. Mayor Aftab provols a 25 00:01:40.359 --> 00:01:45.000 response sort of. Finally, Mayor Aftab Parvoll came out and 26 00:01:45.079 --> 00:01:50.159 spoke or issued a statement about the brutal attacks in 27 00:01:50.239 --> 00:01:55.879 downtown Cincinnati three am Saturday morning. It came out yesterday. 28 00:01:57.599 --> 00:02:02.200 H how long does it take to issue a statement 29 00:02:03.560 --> 00:02:06.159 condemning the attacks, which is really all he said. I mean, 30 00:02:07.079 --> 00:02:09.560 you were going out on a limb to condemn the attacks. 31 00:02:09.560 --> 00:02:12.439 It's like, oh my god. Well, you didn't expect him 32 00:02:12.439 --> 00:02:14.520 to come out and like applaud the attacks, did you. 33 00:02:15.400 --> 00:02:17.439 That's a question why you hung around and didn't do 34 00:02:17.479 --> 00:02:20.479 anything until yesterday late. Anyway, we'll hear what Ken Blackwell 35 00:02:20.520 --> 00:02:25.680 has to say about that. Vv Ramaswamy the establishment's worst 36 00:02:26.000 --> 00:02:30.919 nightmare topic too. With Ken Blackwell wants to discuss briefly 37 00:02:31.000 --> 00:02:35.319 the largest sex abuse website Bust. Apparently Feds were a 38 00:02:35.400 --> 00:02:37.879 heart at work going out on the dark web and 39 00:02:38.439 --> 00:02:41.319 they rounded up some of the most horrific child abusers 40 00:02:41.360 --> 00:02:44.960 and child pornographers out there, which is just a great, 41 00:02:45.159 --> 00:02:48.439 great thing for law enforcement, which I applaud. May they 42 00:02:48.520 --> 00:02:57.520 all suffer miserably in prison, regularly suffer miserably in prison, 43 00:02:59.080 --> 00:03:03.680 and then in the afterlife. Maybe I was above have 44 00:03:03.759 --> 00:03:07.159 a double put aside for each and every one of them. Yeah, 45 00:03:07.479 --> 00:03:10.240 it'll continue in the afterlife to the extent you believe 46 00:03:10.280 --> 00:03:12.159 in one. If there is a hell, that's where they're going. 47 00:03:15.800 --> 00:03:18.879 And he'll also comment to why Hillary Clinton should be 48 00:03:19.000 --> 00:03:22.800 in jail. That should be fun Ken Blackwell seven oh 49 00:03:22.919 --> 00:03:25.439 five follow by Andre Ewing. I am blown away by 50 00:03:25.479 --> 00:03:28.719 this guy, former police officer, retired police officer, Andre Ewing. 51 00:03:29.080 --> 00:03:31.759 If you know who I'm talking about. When I mentioned 52 00:03:31.800 --> 00:03:34.199 his name, you know how fired up this guy is. 53 00:03:35.439 --> 00:03:39.280 He is like the most passionate Baptist minister at the 54 00:03:39.360 --> 00:03:42.159 front of a fired up congregation when it comes to 55 00:03:42.240 --> 00:03:46.039 his topics. And I had an eye full yesterday. Joe 56 00:03:46.080 --> 00:03:47.919 Strecker just told me about he was going to be 57 00:03:47.960 --> 00:03:50.680 on the program, so I went over to Andre Ewing 58 00:03:50.800 --> 00:03:55.000 e Wig. You search for them on Facebook, you'll know 59 00:03:55.080 --> 00:03:58.560 exactly what I'm talking about. Just watch some of his videos. Boy, 60 00:03:58.680 --> 00:04:02.800 he is absent, absolutely on fire about what's happening downtown. 61 00:04:02.919 --> 00:04:06.240 He thinks city manager Long should be fired. He thinks 62 00:04:06.319 --> 00:04:07.840 Mary I have to have fur a ball should be 63 00:04:07.919 --> 00:04:11.759 voted out of office. He demands a change in administration. 64 00:04:12.000 --> 00:04:14.560 He wants some reforms in the police department. He is 65 00:04:14.639 --> 00:04:19.319 a profound critic of Police Chief Teresa Thiji. Says she 66 00:04:19.519 --> 00:04:21.000 never should have been a point of the job, which 67 00:04:21.040 --> 00:04:23.000 is why he points the city Manager Cheryl Long and 68 00:04:23.079 --> 00:04:25.879 says that she never should have appointed police Chief Thiji 69 00:04:26.000 --> 00:04:29.480 because nobody in the police department apparently wanted her. Not 70 00:04:29.639 --> 00:04:32.120 my words, I'm just boiling down the summon substance. What 71 00:04:32.279 --> 00:04:35.160 andre Ewing's one of his brants anyway, and it was 72 00:04:35.240 --> 00:04:38.439 kind of wild because he posts this rant about the 73 00:04:38.560 --> 00:04:42.079 change in administration on the twenty fourth, and then the 74 00:04:42.199 --> 00:04:44.639 day later is when we had this brutal attack in 75 00:04:44.720 --> 00:04:47.160 downtown Cincinnati. So of course he went up with a 76 00:04:47.240 --> 00:04:52.079 follow up basically, see I told you so. So he's 77 00:04:52.120 --> 00:04:54.519 going to be on fire this morning at seven point thirty, 78 00:04:54.600 --> 00:05:03.000 maybe out doing Christopher Smitheman yesterday's Smither event. We'll see 79 00:05:03.879 --> 00:05:07.879 impressive guy andre Ewing inside scoop of bride Bart News. 80 00:05:07.920 --> 00:05:08.439 It is Tuesday. 81 00:05:08.480 --> 00:05:08.800 We do that. 82 00:05:09.000 --> 00:05:11.720 So this Tuesday we're gonna get Colin Maida and the 83 00:05:11.759 --> 00:05:14.639 Tech editor he's been on multiple times. He will comment 84 00:05:14.720 --> 00:05:17.319 on the brawl in Cincinnati that people found out via 85 00:05:17.399 --> 00:05:21.959 social media, something that I thought rather interesting. Dan Horne 86 00:05:22.000 --> 00:05:25.519 and Aaron Glenn from the Cincinnai Inquirer did kind of 87 00:05:25.600 --> 00:05:28.800 what it appears to be an opinion piece about people 88 00:05:28.920 --> 00:05:33.120 jumping to conclusions on social media. How the conservative outlets 89 00:05:33.160 --> 00:05:36.480 posted the videos of that brawl the beat down I 90 00:05:36.480 --> 00:05:39.920 should more properly call it in downtown Cincinnati and immediately 91 00:05:40.040 --> 00:05:44.519 leapt to conclusions, Joe, is it unusual for people to 92 00:05:44.680 --> 00:05:53.040 leap to conclusions online? Is that a shocking phenomenon? I 93 00:05:53.160 --> 00:05:55.439 know it wasn't just conservative media, but that's the spin 94 00:05:55.519 --> 00:05:59.240 that they put on it in the Cincinnati Enquirer. I 95 00:05:59.360 --> 00:06:01.879 know it's shocked, shocking that they would put a spin 96 00:06:01.959 --> 00:06:04.480 on an anti conservative spin on it, and shocking that 97 00:06:04.600 --> 00:06:07.839 anyone would draw a jump to conclusions about anything they 98 00:06:07.920 --> 00:06:12.439 see online. God, anyway, have more comments on that, maybe 99 00:06:12.480 --> 00:06:16.360 a little bit. He'll talk about going back to Colin 100 00:06:16.439 --> 00:06:20.240 may Dine at eight five Man in New York using 101 00:06:20.360 --> 00:06:26.000 artificial intelligence to build bombs, and finally Teachers Union teaming 102 00:06:26.120 --> 00:06:30.839 up with chat GPT and it being Tuesday that Daniel 103 00:06:30.920 --> 00:06:33.759 Davis Deep Dive with the latest on Russia, Ukraine as 104 00:06:33.800 --> 00:06:37.639 well as Israel and Gaza. It's interesting. It was on 105 00:06:37.800 --> 00:06:44.480 Daniel Davis Deep Dive, his online podcast. He had me 106 00:06:44.519 --> 00:06:46.639 as a guest. We talked for about forty five minutes. 107 00:06:47.600 --> 00:06:51.439 We went through about five different topics, and it's amazing 108 00:06:51.519 --> 00:06:55.560 when you have any comment whatsoever about Israel and Gaza, 109 00:06:56.600 --> 00:07:00.360 how the speaking of drawing conclusions and come up with 110 00:07:00.399 --> 00:07:03.160 accusations and things. It's amazing how many people on social 111 00:07:03.240 --> 00:07:08.319 media will just immediately ignite almost like spontaneous human combustion 112 00:07:08.560 --> 00:07:11.439 over the subject matter of Israel and Gaza and immediately 113 00:07:11.480 --> 00:07:16.000 attack anybody who has a pro a leaning pro Israel 114 00:07:16.079 --> 00:07:19.399 bent on anything. I guess I'm a Zionist or something. 115 00:07:19.519 --> 00:07:23.040 I don't know, but several hundred comments and I doubt 116 00:07:23.079 --> 00:07:25.480 he'll ever have me back on the Daniel Davis Deep 117 00:07:25.560 --> 00:07:28.279 Time podcast. I'm gonna ask him about that when he 118 00:07:28.360 --> 00:07:34.560 comes on. I alienate some of your followers there, Daniel. Anyway, 119 00:07:34.720 --> 00:07:37.279 Rabbi ari Jin was on yesterday and he actually was 120 00:07:37.319 --> 00:07:39.120 first on the fifty five case in the morning show 121 00:07:39.560 --> 00:07:42.000 after I had Daniel Davis on for the deep dive 122 00:07:42.079 --> 00:07:44.879 and Daniel Davis said some things that many of my 123 00:07:44.959 --> 00:07:48.639 friends in the israel community, in the Jewish community found 124 00:07:48.800 --> 00:07:54.560 not a necessarily offensive, but objectionable. Wow, a lightning rod 125 00:07:54.800 --> 00:07:57.759 that subject is. So if you didn't hear Rabbi jun yesterday, 126 00:07:57.800 --> 00:08:00.319 he talked about the protests on the Robling Bridge, how 127 00:08:00.759 --> 00:08:04.000 the ultimate police involvement and arrest ended up taking away 128 00:08:04.120 --> 00:08:08.560 from the point of the protest that wasn't supposed to 129 00:08:08.680 --> 00:08:12.879 shut down the bridge. No one got the message ultimately 130 00:08:12.959 --> 00:08:18.160 because well the protesters ended up invading the bridge and 131 00:08:18.240 --> 00:08:21.519 shutting it down. That is a crime. Ergo, the law 132 00:08:21.600 --> 00:08:24.600 enforcement officials came in. He just subjected to the Covington 133 00:08:24.639 --> 00:08:28.240 police departments what he proceeded to be over zealous response. 134 00:08:28.839 --> 00:08:30.920 So anyway, that's what the podcast page is for if 135 00:08:30.920 --> 00:08:36.399 you can't listen live all right, back over to the 136 00:08:36.440 --> 00:08:39.759 developments from the riot in the street or the beatdown 137 00:08:39.840 --> 00:08:47.200 in the street. Hamilin County Prosecutor County Pillach came out 138 00:08:47.320 --> 00:08:51.159 yesterday talking about the brawl downtown, said her office is 139 00:08:51.159 --> 00:08:53.399 going to prosecute the attackers and pursue the case, in 140 00:08:53.519 --> 00:08:59.000 her word, aggressively. She did condemn the behavior called the 141 00:08:59.120 --> 00:09:02.919 actions of those disgusting and deplorable. Quote on background, I 142 00:09:03.000 --> 00:09:05.879 don't know people think about I don't know if people 143 00:09:05.919 --> 00:09:08.399 think about punishment when they do most of these crimes. 144 00:09:08.440 --> 00:09:13.279 But on the record, the behavior we witness is not 145 00:09:14.039 --> 00:09:19.480 that of rational human beings. It was disgusting and deplorable, 146 00:09:19.559 --> 00:09:21.320 and we as a community need to speak up and 147 00:09:21.399 --> 00:09:24.519 say this is not acceptable. This is not who Cincinnati is. 148 00:09:24.600 --> 00:09:27.080 We are better than this. If there are other issues 149 00:09:27.200 --> 00:09:28.960 in the community that led to this, I'm all for 150 00:09:29.039 --> 00:09:32.960 being part of the solution. And I pause and I 151 00:09:33.039 --> 00:09:35.279 think about that. If there are other issues in the 152 00:09:35.399 --> 00:09:38.759 community that led to this, I'm all for being part 153 00:09:38.799 --> 00:09:42.440 of the solution. Now step back and analyze that just briefly, 154 00:09:45.600 --> 00:09:48.000 And I've made this point with regard to people randomly 155 00:09:48.200 --> 00:09:51.879 driving by and unloading a firearm into a group of people, 156 00:09:53.320 --> 00:09:55.799 not knowing or intending to hit anybody. I don't think 157 00:09:55.879 --> 00:09:57.799 how could you do a drive by into a group 158 00:09:57.879 --> 00:10:01.399 of people and really anticipate hitting one specific target. You're 159 00:10:01.440 --> 00:10:05.120 just shooting and spraying into the group. Are there issues 160 00:10:05.200 --> 00:10:07.679 in the community that justify that, No, of course not. 161 00:10:07.879 --> 00:10:11.440 How could you possibly say that someone spraying gunfire into 162 00:10:11.519 --> 00:10:13.960 a random group of people could be connected with any 163 00:10:14.039 --> 00:10:20.840 societal problem other than maybe a poor upbringing or something. 164 00:10:20.960 --> 00:10:23.240 But how do you I mean, if you're the person 165 00:10:23.360 --> 00:10:26.159 with the gun in their hand, what is your motivation 166 00:10:26.440 --> 00:10:30.159 for this? How are you drawing a line between your 167 00:10:30.320 --> 00:10:36.240 anger or some societal problem in the community with shooting 168 00:10:36.320 --> 00:10:40.919 guns into a random group of people. There is no 169 00:10:41.159 --> 00:10:44.559 logical connection with that. There's no way you can rationalize 170 00:10:44.720 --> 00:10:50.200 or justify the attempted murder with whatever problems you face 171 00:10:50.320 --> 00:10:54.000 growing up. And I would say the same thing about 172 00:10:54.000 --> 00:10:56.519 the people who beat the crap out of the folks 173 00:10:56.600 --> 00:10:59.440 in downtown Cincinnati the other day, even if there was 174 00:10:59.559 --> 00:11:03.360 a verbal altercation, which there apparently was, and apparently I 175 00:11:03.679 --> 00:11:05.639 guess there's one video of the guy that got the 176 00:11:05.759 --> 00:11:09.679 ultimate beatdown slapping. This is what started the altercation. It 177 00:11:09.840 --> 00:11:18.080 was a slap or something, probably a bad idea. But 178 00:11:18.279 --> 00:11:24.080 you're the guy next to the two people arguing, they 179 00:11:24.240 --> 00:11:27.240 start a fight, and then you jump in and start 180 00:11:27.440 --> 00:11:30.759 kicking the hell out of someone who's already on the ground, 181 00:11:31.279 --> 00:11:33.600 and going back for a second and third slice of 182 00:11:33.639 --> 00:11:37.879 the action. More violence, more kicking, more head stomping. The 183 00:11:38.000 --> 00:11:43.240 man's down. Is that are you doing that as a 184 00:11:43.320 --> 00:11:47.159 consequence of some issue in the community, Using the words 185 00:11:47.200 --> 00:11:50.840 of Hamilton County prosecutor, kind of village, What the hell 186 00:11:50.919 --> 00:11:56.320 is that all about? Did that man create an issue 187 00:11:56.399 --> 00:11:59.600 in your community that justifies you beating him almost to death? 188 00:12:01.679 --> 00:12:03.600 Not even considering the woman who got punched in the 189 00:12:03.679 --> 00:12:08.480 face and not cold. Is she something? Is something going 190 00:12:08.559 --> 00:12:13.240 on in the community that she's responsible for? No, of 191 00:12:13.320 --> 00:12:17.039 course not. I mean, I can't say that definitively because 192 00:12:17.039 --> 00:12:18.679 I don't know that woman or the guy that got 193 00:12:18.919 --> 00:12:19.879 the crap beat out of him. 194 00:12:21.399 --> 00:12:21.720 I don't know. 195 00:12:22.360 --> 00:12:24.320 Maybe they're part of this, Maybe they are the root 196 00:12:24.360 --> 00:12:27.519 of society's problems. Maybe the folks in downtown Sin Sin 197 00:12:27.519 --> 00:12:31.320 I at three o'clock in the morning Saturday knew full 198 00:12:31.399 --> 00:12:34.919 well that those two were responsible for these society's problems, 199 00:12:35.000 --> 00:12:38.159 and therefore we're justificab we're worthy of the beatdown that 200 00:12:38.240 --> 00:12:48.799 they received. I know it's preposterous anyway, the prosecutor urged them. 201 00:12:49.120 --> 00:12:52.799 I'm just reading the words of Ali Hannard over at 202 00:12:52.840 --> 00:12:56.200 Fox nineteen. Prosecutor also urged the community to speak up 203 00:12:56.279 --> 00:12:59.919 and make it clear that such behavior will not be tolerated, 204 00:13:00.240 --> 00:13:03.440 and that is really fundamentally what Andrea Ewing was all about. 205 00:13:03.759 --> 00:13:07.720 He was screaming at his fellow African American black people. 206 00:13:08.240 --> 00:13:12.919 You are embarrassing. That's what I asked Christopher about the 207 00:13:13.000 --> 00:13:14.279 other day. I said, you know, if I was a 208 00:13:14.440 --> 00:13:16.679 black person in the city of Cincinnati, I would be 209 00:13:16.799 --> 00:13:21.159 horrified to lay witness that my fellow black brothers are 210 00:13:21.279 --> 00:13:24.360 out there doing something like this. It's given me a 211 00:13:24.480 --> 00:13:27.360 bad name. People are drawing conclusions about it, which was 212 00:13:27.399 --> 00:13:29.519 the point of that op ed piece over in the 213 00:13:29.600 --> 00:13:33.919 enquire by Dan Hornan Aaron Glenn. People immediately leapt to conclusions. 214 00:13:34.000 --> 00:13:36.159 Now do we know it was racially motivated? No, I'm 215 00:13:36.200 --> 00:13:37.679 sitting here this morning and I don't know if it 216 00:13:37.720 --> 00:13:42.600 has any do with race nothing, but it certainly invites 217 00:13:42.679 --> 00:13:47.960 the discussion. And we do see that the majority of 218 00:13:47.960 --> 00:13:50.480 the folks that were issuing the beat down were African 219 00:13:50.519 --> 00:13:53.600 American or black people, and the victims in this particular 220 00:13:53.679 --> 00:13:57.440 case were white people. So yeah, it's bad optics. And 221 00:13:57.559 --> 00:13:59.799 going back to my point, it doesn't make any sense 222 00:14:00.120 --> 00:14:03.960 issue that kind of beat down under any circumstances whatsoever, 223 00:14:04.120 --> 00:14:06.799 with the notable exception that the person that's getting the 224 00:14:06.840 --> 00:14:10.480 beat down molested your child or your daughter or your wife, 225 00:14:11.720 --> 00:14:13.840 that kind of thing, then I might be able to 226 00:14:13.879 --> 00:14:16.879 applaud the beat down. There's no evidence of that and 227 00:14:17.039 --> 00:14:20.240 those people having any connection with the people issuing the beatdown. 228 00:14:21.120 --> 00:14:27.799 Saturday morning, anyway, can't wait for Andre to join the 229 00:14:27.840 --> 00:14:31.759 program to talk about that, and onload five one, three, seven, 230 00:14:31.799 --> 00:14:33.840 four nine fifty five hundred, eight hundred and eighty two 231 00:14:33.840 --> 00:14:35.600 to three talk pound five fifty on AT and t F. 232 00:14:35.720 --> 00:14:38.480 I'm feel free to chime in.

Oh wow, cooling down, 248 00:15:29.039 --> 00:15:34.480 mostly cloudy as the cold front slowly comes through seventy 249 00:15:34.480 --> 00:15:36.559 five degrees right now. If it's about ker City talk station, 250 00:15:40.159 --> 00:15:47.000 interesting observation. Dress Strecker obviously a very astute observer of things, 251 00:15:47.279 --> 00:15:49.279 since a mayor did come out with a statement as 252 00:15:49.360 --> 00:15:54.120 brief as it was issued it yesterday. I am outraged 253 00:15:54.120 --> 00:15:56.480 by the vicious fight that occurred downtown. It is horrifying 254 00:15:56.559 --> 00:16:00.240 to watch, and this is unacceptable and disgusting behavior here 255 00:16:00.759 --> 00:16:03.159 is intolerable in any part of our community. That's not 256 00:16:03.240 --> 00:16:07.120 who we are as a city. Let me be clear, 257 00:16:07.320 --> 00:16:10.200 Cincinnati is an inclusive city where all can come together 258 00:16:10.240 --> 00:16:12.799 to enjoy major events in our urban core. I want 259 00:16:12.840 --> 00:16:15.759 to thank our law enforcement for their thorough work both 260 00:16:15.840 --> 00:16:18.399 to investigate this incident and to keep folks safe throughout 261 00:16:18.440 --> 00:16:26.240 our city in this weekend. Jobs are that while Police 262 00:16:26.360 --> 00:16:33.159 Chief Teresa Fiji and other some anyway other officials did 263 00:16:33.240 --> 00:16:36.600 actually have a press statement, they invited people to be 264 00:16:36.759 --> 00:16:41.639 there live in person. I have to have pervol issued 265 00:16:41.679 --> 00:16:44.639 his statement on zoom. There was no Q and A 266 00:16:45.960 --> 00:16:47.840 and he said it was kind of a blurred background. 267 00:16:47.879 --> 00:16:49.679 You know when you do a zoom or a video 268 00:16:49.759 --> 00:16:52.480 conference and you can blur the background so people don't 269 00:16:52.480 --> 00:16:55.279 see your wife walking through or your dog or whatever. 270 00:16:55.440 --> 00:16:59.639 I mean, we've all been down that road. So Joe 271 00:16:59.720 --> 00:17:01.720 is kind of questioning out loud, do you think he's 272 00:17:01.799 --> 00:17:06.880 even in town. I don't know that matters. I mean, 273 00:17:06.960 --> 00:17:09.720 we you know, he's got the right to go out 274 00:17:09.759 --> 00:17:14.160 of town. But just looking at that, and when he 275 00:17:14.319 --> 00:17:18.000 made that statement, I was looking at the v Ramaswamy statement, 276 00:17:18.039 --> 00:17:20.160 he said. I spoke to Holly earlier. The woman tragedy 277 00:17:20.200 --> 00:17:23.920 was Sultans Cincinnati this week, single work of mom who 278 00:17:24.000 --> 00:17:26.200 went to a friend's birthday party. It's unconsortable that we're 279 00:17:26.200 --> 00:17:28.359 no police president in the area of Cincinnati on Friday night, 280 00:17:28.480 --> 00:17:30.200 or even an ambulance to take her to the hospital. 281 00:17:30.279 --> 00:17:33.039 Hard working Americans shouldn't have to worry about or worry 282 00:17:33.119 --> 00:17:34.920 for their safety when they have a good time in 283 00:17:35.000 --> 00:17:40.559 our cities. Holly said. Not a single local or state 284 00:17:40.759 --> 00:17:46.680 official had yet reached out as of early afternoon. This 285 00:17:46.920 --> 00:17:51.279 was yesterday, wasn't it, Joe when he issued this statement? Yeah, huh, 286 00:17:53.640 --> 00:18:03.519 And yet Viva Ramaswamy did reach out. He's a good man. 287 00:18:03.680 --> 00:18:05.960 He's gonna make a great governor. Five twenty five fifty 288 00:18:06.000 --> 00:18:08.359 five KR see the talk stations five and three seven 289 00:18:08.359 --> 00:18:11.000 four fifty five hundred eight hundred two three talk.

You know, I just got it a real 313 00:19:15.079 --> 00:19:16.480 quick here. Before I jumped to the phones, I got 314 00:19:16.519 --> 00:19:20.000 tom online. I'm glad to see that. As is tradition 315 00:19:25.400 --> 00:19:34.319 is is thug a bad word? It's though it's not 316 00:19:34.440 --> 00:19:39.799 on George Carlin's seven Dirty Words list. Your reason I ask, 317 00:19:46.920 --> 00:19:53.119 I was look at it CPS reporting on it headlines. 318 00:19:53.240 --> 00:19:55.519 JD Van says video of violent fight and said it 319 00:19:55.599 --> 00:19:59.519 Cincinnati shows mob of lawless thugs headline, and that is 320 00:19:59.559 --> 00:20:03.160 part of what said. But if you look over I 321 00:20:03.359 --> 00:20:10.279 think is Fox nineteen Fox nineteen's reporting on it. Let 322 00:20:10.319 --> 00:20:11.880 me see here, I think it was. I was trying 323 00:20:11.880 --> 00:20:14.240 to find I've got so many articles related to this subject. 324 00:20:14.319 --> 00:20:17.079 But yeah, so over at Fox nineteen's reporting they do 325 00:20:17.200 --> 00:20:19.720 the full Jdvans quote as well. I have seen the 326 00:20:19.759 --> 00:20:21.839 full context. But what I saw as a mob of 327 00:20:22.000 --> 00:20:26.640 lawless tea and then astisk they don't spell the word 328 00:20:26.799 --> 00:20:33.160 thugs out. I didn't realize thug was something that needed 329 00:20:33.160 --> 00:20:35.359 to be deleted by way of actually like like an 330 00:20:35.440 --> 00:20:38.279 FCC non compliant word, which is my perception of Fox 331 00:20:38.400 --> 00:20:41.559 nineteen's reporting on this. Kind of weird, isn't it anyway? 332 00:20:41.759 --> 00:20:45.480 Just an observation. Let's see what Tom's got to say. Tom, 333 00:20:45.640 --> 00:20:49.400 thank you for bearing with me there as I was 334 00:20:49.440 --> 00:20:52.240 trying to struggle with the reality of thug being something 335 00:20:52.279 --> 00:20:54.279 that was worthy of being deleted. 336 00:20:54.359 --> 00:20:57.400 Go ahead, Well, it depends on whose subject. 337 00:20:58.559 --> 00:21:04.559 You know, Republicans saying it and they're referring to possibly 338 00:21:05.359 --> 00:21:07.759 black people, then oh, it's a terrible word to use. 339 00:21:09.079 --> 00:21:12.400 If it's uh, if it's a liberal and they're calling 340 00:21:12.559 --> 00:21:16.880 Republicans jack booted thugs, oh it's perfectly funky. It's spell 341 00:21:17.000 --> 00:21:20.359 out with all caps. So it's it's all relevant, Brian, 342 00:21:20.519 --> 00:21:22.440 to who's saying it and who they're saying it about. 343 00:21:22.519 --> 00:21:26.359 All right, And in the observation, I must interject, though, 344 00:21:26.400 --> 00:21:30.119 there's been some suggestion some of the local news reporting 345 00:21:30.160 --> 00:21:33.319 on this. Now, well, you know, the group of people 346 00:21:33.480 --> 00:21:37.200 that were around the beat down and those involved in 347 00:21:37.319 --> 00:21:42.519 the beatdown apparently were of mixed ethnicity, So we're not 348 00:21:42.640 --> 00:21:46.039 dealing with one specific group of ethnic people here. So 349 00:21:46.359 --> 00:21:48.119 thugs in this particular case. 350 00:21:48.519 --> 00:21:48.759 We're not. 351 00:21:49.039 --> 00:21:52.240 But they obviously there are some black people included in 352 00:21:52.319 --> 00:21:57.359 that group. So and since JAV did not take them 353 00:21:57.440 --> 00:22:00.119 out and sort them out according to race, they have 354 00:22:00.200 --> 00:22:00.559 to make. 355 00:22:00.440 --> 00:22:01.079 Sure they do that. 356 00:22:01.240 --> 00:22:04.799 So Uh anyway, Uh yeah, again, it depends on who 357 00:22:04.839 --> 00:22:07.720 says that, who they're talking about. And because we don't 358 00:22:07.720 --> 00:22:11.400 want to offend anybody, and clearly our our astudent uh 359 00:22:12.000 --> 00:22:15.119 prosecutor is his wanting to make sure she covers her 360 00:22:15.160 --> 00:22:18.519 rear in and her statement about maybe there's some problem 361 00:22:18.599 --> 00:22:19.240 in society. 362 00:22:19.720 --> 00:22:20.759 Uh, you nailed it. 363 00:22:20.920 --> 00:22:25.039 What there's no problem in society that wards that that's 364 00:22:25.200 --> 00:22:28.400 just I got to finally watch it yesterday, Uh, sit 365 00:22:28.480 --> 00:22:30.799 down and watch the and and the extra clips that 366 00:22:30.839 --> 00:22:33.000 have been at and said that there's no there's no 367 00:22:33.119 --> 00:22:36.680 excuse for that. That's but and and these people who 368 00:22:36.720 --> 00:22:39.519 are saying that's not who we are, Uh, well maybe 369 00:22:39.680 --> 00:22:42.039 maybe it's turning into who we are and why are 370 00:22:42.119 --> 00:22:45.680 we turning into this? Why is this happening? And but 371 00:22:45.920 --> 00:22:49.000 you know, I feel so much better now because the 372 00:22:49.119 --> 00:22:51.960 mayor has released the statement, So it's all safe to 373 00:22:52.000 --> 00:22:52.799 go back downtown. 374 00:22:52.880 --> 00:22:56.839 People, don't worry. Your mayor is on the job and he. 375 00:22:56.920 --> 00:23:00.079 Has released a statement and so you know, I have 376 00:23:00.200 --> 00:23:03.960 no fear. Everything's fine. Nobody will be messing around anymore. 377 00:23:04.000 --> 00:23:07.279 Because the mayor released a statement. I just feel so 378 00:23:07.400 --> 00:23:09.599 much better about it. And and the thing in the 379 00:23:09.680 --> 00:23:12.079 statement that got me. I don't know why this stood 380 00:23:12.079 --> 00:23:16.519 out the most. They'll let me be clear. Comment Barack Obama. 381 00:23:16.799 --> 00:23:21.039 Isn't that what he's famous for? These Democrats are absolutely ridiculous. 382 00:23:21.319 --> 00:23:23.519 Please people don't vote Democrats. 383 00:23:23.599 --> 00:23:25.279 Have a great day, Brian, you too. 384 00:23:25.400 --> 00:23:33.000 Tom Thug definition a violent aggressive person, especially one who 385 00:23:33.119 --> 00:23:43.440 is a criminal. Oxford Dictionary thug a violent aggressive person. 386 00:23:43.799 --> 00:23:44.079 I think. 387 00:23:44.200 --> 00:23:47.160 Isn't that definition? I mean, the literal definition of what 388 00:23:47.240 --> 00:23:53.240 we were witnessing. No, we can't use that word. Someone 389 00:23:53.359 --> 00:23:54.119 might be offended. 390 00:23:56.279 --> 00:23:56.559 Okay. 391 00:23:57.440 --> 00:24:01.160 Anyway, they do get five people charged in in the 392 00:24:01.240 --> 00:24:06.079 altercation so far. While investigating witnesses account videos posted online, 393 00:24:06.319 --> 00:24:09.799 Police Chief Teresa Thiji said they were able to identify 394 00:24:09.880 --> 00:24:13.680 I'm just account from WCPO props to Tailor Wheder, Molly 395 00:24:13.799 --> 00:24:18.680 Shram and Sean Delancey, reporting five people so far been 396 00:24:18.799 --> 00:24:22.200 charged these you said, police anticipate more charges, calling for 397 00:24:22.279 --> 00:24:25.039 people involved to turn themselves in. Quote it would be 398 00:24:25.200 --> 00:24:28.599 in their best interest to come turn themselves in at 399 00:24:28.839 --> 00:24:32.079 one of our police districts, at least any of the 400 00:24:32.160 --> 00:24:37.440 ones that are remaining. She said the videos online do 401 00:24:37.559 --> 00:24:40.559 not provide the full story. Didn't say what police believe 402 00:24:40.720 --> 00:24:43.759 led to the fight. She said anyone who placed their 403 00:24:43.880 --> 00:24:46.960 hands on somebody in an attempt to cause harm will 404 00:24:47.039 --> 00:24:50.640 face consequences. Shelsa said officers are looking into whether some 405 00:24:50.720 --> 00:24:53.839 of the people involved were over served at local bars 406 00:24:53.960 --> 00:24:56.799 or restaurants, saying it's clear alcohol played a part in 407 00:24:56.880 --> 00:25:02.799 the fight. What hey, Joe, the music festival had nothing 408 00:25:02.880 --> 00:25:06.920 to do with the incident and alcohol may have been involved. 409 00:25:07.640 --> 00:25:12.200 Now they're checking into seeing if some of the people 410 00:25:12.279 --> 00:25:16.039 involved were overserved. How can you do that several days 411 00:25:16.119 --> 00:25:18.160 after the incident. You're not going to know whether they 412 00:25:18.200 --> 00:25:20.440 were drunk or not at the time of the beat down. 413 00:25:20.519 --> 00:25:28.039 It's a little late. Blood alcohol content probably dropped. And 414 00:25:28.200 --> 00:25:30.680 how can you know it's clear that alcohol played a 415 00:25:30.720 --> 00:25:36.000 part in the fight if you have not determined whether 416 00:25:36.200 --> 00:25:38.759 some of the people involved were overserved or not. I mean, 417 00:25:38.799 --> 00:25:45.440 that's just I mean, I'm just reading what's written. No, 418 00:25:45.559 --> 00:25:48.079 there's no report of a toxicology being done, Joe, there's 419 00:25:48.119 --> 00:25:51.359 no breathalyzer tests that have been reported. Nobody knows. I mean, 420 00:25:52.880 --> 00:25:58.839 the reporters point out that they're looking into whether some 421 00:25:59.000 --> 00:26:02.400 were overserved. They had a determinative concluded, they had concluded 422 00:26:02.400 --> 00:26:05.279 definitively that some of the people involved in this were drunk. 423 00:26:05.599 --> 00:26:08.559 I imagine it would have said that police have determined 424 00:26:08.599 --> 00:26:11.240 that alcohol was in fact involved because some of the 425 00:26:11.279 --> 00:26:14.680 people's toxicology reports indicate that they had a blood alcohol 426 00:26:14.759 --> 00:26:18.359 content exceeding point zero eight or something to that effect. 427 00:26:20.920 --> 00:26:22.799 So how can you say it's clear alcohol played a 428 00:26:22.839 --> 00:26:25.039 part and fight if you have not yet determined whether 429 00:26:25.119 --> 00:26:33.599 anybody was overserved yet? Five point thirty seven, Fred, I 430 00:26:33.640 --> 00:26:35.480 will take your call. I promise if you don't mind 431 00:26:35.480 --> 00:26:37.119 holding just for a moment, I'll be right back. 432 00:26:37.640 --> 00:26:42.319 This is fifty five karc an iHeartRadio station to towns. 433 00:26:43.640 --> 00:26:43.880 JOHNA. 434 00:26:43.920 --> 00:26:44.079 Nine. 435 00:26:44.119 --> 00:26:47.160 We the poecasts mostly cloudy two, partly sunny, hot, and 436 00:26:47.240 --> 00:26:49.319 of course very humid today ninety one with the heat 437 00:26:49.319 --> 00:26:53.960 index lowe hundreds so nine seventy three, clear, very muggy tomorrow, hot, 438 00:26:54.119 --> 00:26:57.839 humid ninety two and a lowe hundred heat index.

Another attack downtown an isolated incident, but one 456 00:28:01.799 --> 00:28:08.160 bad police reaction is an epidemic bias. Fred, thank you 457 00:28:08.279 --> 00:28:10.319 for holding. Welcome to the fifty five k morning show. 458 00:28:11.400 --> 00:28:15.000 Heay, good morning. First of all, I have to give 459 00:28:15.039 --> 00:28:18.000 you praise. Could you saved me over like six thousand 460 00:28:18.079 --> 00:28:20.319 dollars on my imaging all time. I have to give 461 00:28:20.359 --> 00:28:21.440 you praise on that first. 462 00:28:21.920 --> 00:28:24.240 See you went to affordable imaging and you save that 463 00:28:24.359 --> 00:28:24.880 kind of money. 464 00:28:25.720 --> 00:28:26.839 I say, that kind of money. 465 00:28:27.039 --> 00:28:27.680 That's awesome. 466 00:28:27.880 --> 00:28:30.400 Actually, yeah it was. It was great. I was like, 467 00:28:30.480 --> 00:28:33.119 I've been trying to get in to talk to you, 468 00:28:33.200 --> 00:28:35.319 but anyway, real quick. 469 00:28:35.400 --> 00:28:37.759 Fred, real quick, man, I'm sorry to interrupt you your 470 00:28:37.880 --> 00:28:40.200 train of thought. Go ahead to tell what it does. 471 00:28:40.599 --> 00:28:47.400 If affordable imaging also fixed your road. Oh yes, I know, 472 00:28:47.599 --> 00:28:49.200 I know, I know, I know we go way back 473 00:28:49.279 --> 00:28:52.720 on that one, and I know your road could repaved anyway, Fred, 474 00:28:53.680 --> 00:28:54.519 go ahead. 475 00:28:54.279 --> 00:28:58.519 Man, okay, on your last caller and I got to do. 476 00:28:58.759 --> 00:29:00.759 That's why I love listening to you in the morning, 477 00:29:01.000 --> 00:29:04.160 because you try to correct people when they're when they 478 00:29:04.240 --> 00:29:06.759 go off a little bit. And your last call I 479 00:29:06.960 --> 00:29:09.920 like listening to him. He makes me laugh. But you know, 480 00:29:10.000 --> 00:29:12.920 when he's talking about the thugs and not understanding what's 481 00:29:12.960 --> 00:29:16.440 going on and he don't have the whole story, he 482 00:29:16.759 --> 00:29:20.400 need to check what he's talking about first before he speaks, 483 00:29:20.880 --> 00:29:23.119 because when he speaks, it makes him seem like he 484 00:29:23.160 --> 00:29:26.920 don't understand what he's talking about, and you corrected him, 485 00:29:27.000 --> 00:29:30.799 and I appreciate that very much. And listen, I'm not 486 00:29:31.359 --> 00:29:33.799 a spokesman for the black communities, but the community that 487 00:29:33.880 --> 00:29:39.279 I am, we dispute that violence for young people. We 488 00:29:39.440 --> 00:29:41.799 believe the police get do a lot more. We want 489 00:29:41.920 --> 00:29:46.039 more police. I want more police. You know, we're not 490 00:29:46.400 --> 00:29:50.039 anti police. We want more police. We want our kids 491 00:29:50.119 --> 00:29:53.160 to be home. We don't want our kids running the streets. 492 00:29:53.799 --> 00:29:57.480 You don't listen all the stuff that's being talked about. 493 00:29:57.920 --> 00:30:00.200 We already agree with one hundred percent with it. So 494 00:30:00.240 --> 00:30:02.519 I don't want people to think that like it's because 495 00:30:02.559 --> 00:30:04.839 I'm black man. I'm not speaking for the black community. 496 00:30:05.359 --> 00:30:08.400 For the community that I'm in, we do want the 497 00:30:08.440 --> 00:30:09.480 same thing you want. 498 00:30:09.599 --> 00:30:12.519 You know, And I asked Christopher Smithman the very same question. 499 00:30:12.640 --> 00:30:14.599 You know, if you pull people in the black community, 500 00:30:14.720 --> 00:30:17.200 what is their perception of police elect Well, we would 501 00:30:17.319 --> 00:30:20.680 like more, you know, we generally speaking, we want a 502 00:30:20.920 --> 00:30:24.960 safe neighborhood. And we all understand some police or bad people. 503 00:30:25.119 --> 00:30:27.720 And you pick any category of people, put them all 504 00:30:27.720 --> 00:30:30.359 in one room. Some of the people in that room, 505 00:30:30.440 --> 00:30:32.799 regardless of who they are, are going to be jerks. 506 00:30:32.799 --> 00:30:35.160 And I could use an FCC non compliant word to 507 00:30:35.200 --> 00:30:38.519 describe them. But there's a percentage of every population that's 508 00:30:38.559 --> 00:30:40.920 going to fall into the category of a bad egg. 509 00:30:41.599 --> 00:30:45.119 But because the police provides safety in the community, generally speaking, 510 00:30:45.200 --> 00:30:47.839 it's their task, it's their job. Most people want them, 511 00:30:48.200 --> 00:30:50.759 especially if you're in a violent community. And I appreciate 512 00:30:50.880 --> 00:30:53.119 Fred you saying that out loud because more people should 513 00:30:53.119 --> 00:30:55.400 step up and say it, and maybe then our elected 514 00:30:55.440 --> 00:30:59.160 officials will make similar pronouncements and encourage and engage the 515 00:30:59.200 --> 00:31:03.039 community to regularly repeat that mantra. No, we are not 516 00:31:03.359 --> 00:31:07.680 against the police. We want law and order. Period. 517 00:31:08.799 --> 00:31:10.880 Let me tell you one more thing. I'll stay in 518 00:31:10.960 --> 00:31:14.680 Westwood and I've been staying. I think I'm bought this 519 00:31:14.759 --> 00:31:18.559 house seven years ago, and I know at least four 520 00:31:18.640 --> 00:31:20.759 to five people have been shot and killed in front 521 00:31:20.759 --> 00:31:21.200 of my house. 522 00:31:21.319 --> 00:31:21.960 Oh my god. 523 00:31:22.519 --> 00:31:25.559 And I called the police. I call the police, I 524 00:31:25.640 --> 00:31:29.440 call the police. They do nothing. The same people that's 525 00:31:29.440 --> 00:31:31.799 standing outside the standing out there for the last six 526 00:31:31.880 --> 00:31:34.119 seven years. They don't stay on the neighborhood, they don't 527 00:31:34.160 --> 00:31:37.319 stay in one of the houses. They bring crates there, 528 00:31:37.559 --> 00:31:41.000 sit down on crates, they sit there all day. But 529 00:31:42.440 --> 00:31:47.480 my tax paying money is not working clearly anyway. I 530 00:31:47.599 --> 00:31:49.279 just wanted to call and say thank you again for 531 00:31:49.359 --> 00:31:51.880 correcting the people that's wrong when they say something wrong, 532 00:31:52.039 --> 00:31:53.440 and I will keep on following you. 533 00:31:53.640 --> 00:31:56.279 Thank you, Fred. I appreciate your calls, and I appreciate 534 00:31:56.319 --> 00:31:58.799 you listening to the morning show, and I do my best. Man, 535 00:31:59.200 --> 00:32:01.839 I catch myself paint with a broad brush occasionally, and 536 00:32:01.920 --> 00:32:05.039 I stop myself when I catch myself and I acknowledge it. 537 00:32:05.640 --> 00:32:08.640 Don't paint with a broad brush. You can't just say 538 00:32:09.079 --> 00:32:12.079 this is the way it is without acknowledging the reality 539 00:32:12.119 --> 00:32:15.880 of the situation, especially before all the facts aren't in. 540 00:32:16.759 --> 00:32:20.400 I mean, maybe it's the lawyer in me. I don't 541 00:32:20.440 --> 00:32:24.000 want to ever jump to a conclusion before I have 542 00:32:24.279 --> 00:32:28.359 information that allows me to even reach a conclusion. God 543 00:32:28.440 --> 00:32:30.559 bless you, Fred, and I'm glad you save the money. 544 00:32:30.599 --> 00:32:32.680 See this is I love the fact that I can 545 00:32:32.720 --> 00:32:34.400 save my listeners money. It's one of the reasons why 546 00:32:34.440 --> 00:32:36.880 I'm happy to support affordable imaging services. And I'm glad 547 00:32:36.920 --> 00:32:40.359 they support the program by advertising, because I want you 548 00:32:40.440 --> 00:32:44.119 to save money. I don't want people spending money they 549 00:32:44.160 --> 00:32:45.880 don't have to spend on anything. 550 00:32:46.920 --> 00:32:47.279 Anyway. 551 00:32:47.279 --> 00:32:48.799 I got a couple of the callers online. I'm gonna 552 00:32:48.799 --> 00:32:52.839 get to those right away. But first look on the 553 00:32:52.920 --> 00:32:56.759 spot list affordable imaging services. Timing could have been better, Fred, 554 00:32:56.839 --> 00:32:58.680 I didn't even plan this. I just looked up now 555 00:32:58.720 --> 00:32:59.960 and saw that I was supposed to a spot for 556 00:33:00.119 --> 00:33:03.279 affordable and why not. You two can save thousands. Fred 557 00:33:03.440 --> 00:33:06.200 just saved six thousand dollars. And over the times that 558 00:33:06.240 --> 00:33:08.480 I've been to affordable imaging services, since I've gotten like 559 00:33:08.559 --> 00:33:11.440 three CT scans there, I think I've probably saved like 560 00:33:12.039 --> 00:33:17.200 maybe fifteen thousand dollars. Because the CT scan will cost 561 00:33:17.240 --> 00:33:20.400 you maybe five grand at a hospital, it's four hundred 562 00:33:20.400 --> 00:33:22.839 and fifty dollars without a contrast six hundred with the 563 00:33:22.880 --> 00:33:28.880 contrast that affordable imaging services. I mean, that's massive, massive savings. Jeff, 564 00:33:28.920 --> 00:33:31.079 you're out there. I know you save thirty one hundred bucks. 565 00:33:31.119 --> 00:33:33.000 I love using him as an illustration. I can now 566 00:33:33.119 --> 00:33:36.079 use Fred as an illustration. Matt, this is serious money. 567 00:33:36.880 --> 00:33:40.039 Ultrasound maybe two grand at a hospital, No, two hundred 568 00:33:40.079 --> 00:33:44.039 and fifty bucks. Every one of the images that affordable 569 00:33:44.039 --> 00:33:47.559 imaging services, whether it's an echo cardigrand MRI, CT scan, ultrasound, 570 00:33:47.640 --> 00:33:49.839 X ray, all come of the board. Certified radiology support 571 00:33:49.880 --> 00:33:53.319 included in the price, and they now have a new 572 00:33:53.400 --> 00:33:57.640 location New Richmond, right there off I seventy at the 573 00:33:57.680 --> 00:33:59.799 Ohio Indiana border. Other than than the other one is 574 00:33:59.839 --> 00:34:01.839 in I Colts Road, which is real close to thirty 575 00:34:01.920 --> 00:34:06.920 Route thirty two. So two locations that X ray seventy 576 00:34:06.920 --> 00:34:10.559 five bucks. So save massive amounts of money. Be like Fred, 577 00:34:10.639 --> 00:34:12.840 do the right thing.

So what's on your mind today, Mike? 614 00:36:08.440 --> 00:36:09.000 Yeah, I don't know. 615 00:36:09.239 --> 00:36:13.079 CPD has an official spokesperson that could deal with the 616 00:36:13.199 --> 00:36:16.360 media a lot better than our current police chief has 617 00:36:16.400 --> 00:36:19.079 been doing. You and the callers have done a great 618 00:36:19.159 --> 00:36:24.159 job dissecting her comments about the fight and the ridiculous 619 00:36:24.280 --> 00:36:28.960 of her statement where she quickly exonerated the jazz festival. 620 00:36:29.760 --> 00:36:31.880 I guess I am part of the problem then, because 621 00:36:32.159 --> 00:36:34.320 my grandson Parker and I were at the Reds game 622 00:36:34.440 --> 00:36:37.280 on over this past weekend. So I guess we are 623 00:36:37.880 --> 00:36:40.920 part because we were not exonerated by that idiotic statement 624 00:36:41.000 --> 00:36:43.400 that she made so quickly with twenty four hours? 625 00:36:43.679 --> 00:36:45.800 Was Parker overserved in the Dora? 626 00:36:48.880 --> 00:36:49.400 How old is that? 627 00:36:49.480 --> 00:36:49.719 You do? 628 00:36:50.440 --> 00:36:52.199 We sweated all out, that's for sure. 629 00:36:52.480 --> 00:36:53.639 He's like eight, isn't he? 630 00:36:55.199 --> 00:36:56.320 He's actually going to be ten. 631 00:36:57.000 --> 00:37:00.840 I'm sorry to Parker. I apologize Parker for understanding your anyway. 632 00:37:01.760 --> 00:37:04.880 But prior to that on Friday, which obviously after what 633 00:37:05.000 --> 00:37:09.000 we've just experienced, definitely you know, has gotten buried in 634 00:37:09.039 --> 00:37:13.159 the weeds. Her and our dubious mayor, we're having a 635 00:37:13.320 --> 00:37:18.360 press conference concerning the youth crime and all the guns 636 00:37:18.400 --> 00:37:20.719 and stuff like that, and like anything else, if you 637 00:37:20.840 --> 00:37:23.719 can't solve the problem, it's better to deflect it. So 638 00:37:24.079 --> 00:37:27.559 they made the statement that it's because of those wascally 639 00:37:27.679 --> 00:37:31.480 Republicans up in Columbus. Because of the relaxation of the 640 00:37:31.559 --> 00:37:34.320 requirement to get concealed Carrie, to go to the training 641 00:37:34.360 --> 00:37:36.840 and to get a permit, that's why so many more 642 00:37:36.960 --> 00:37:40.079 teens or I'll say the words, so many thugs. 643 00:37:39.800 --> 00:37:43.320 Have guns now, okay, and last they. 644 00:37:43.360 --> 00:37:45.320 Never had them before, like they always went to the 645 00:37:45.400 --> 00:37:47.800 training or as soon as they relaxed it, that's when 646 00:37:47.840 --> 00:37:48.920 they started to get guns. 647 00:37:49.360 --> 00:37:53.000 Yeah, And if a teenager went into a store to 648 00:37:53.079 --> 00:37:55.199 buy a firearm, I don't think they'd be able to 649 00:37:55.239 --> 00:37:57.800 get through the process because they're teenagers. 650 00:37:58.840 --> 00:37:59.639 He exactly. 651 00:38:00.639 --> 00:38:02.239 There is still a law in the book for that, right. 652 00:38:03.639 --> 00:38:04.960 I believe it's twenty one for him. 653 00:38:05.320 --> 00:38:10.039 Yeah, it happens to be. Yeah, Yeah, I appreciate it, Mike. 654 00:38:10.639 --> 00:38:13.159 Next Wednesday, brother, we'll see if I can make it. 655 00:38:13.320 --> 00:38:15.679 Five Jay, Welcome to the Morning Show. Always good to 656 00:38:15.719 --> 00:38:16.159 hear from you. 657 00:38:17.079 --> 00:38:18.039 Hey, good morning, Brian. 658 00:38:18.679 --> 00:38:18.840 Hey. 659 00:38:18.920 --> 00:38:23.760 The comment about you know, overserved and alcoholics clearly involved. 660 00:38:24.920 --> 00:38:28.280 What that means is that the people in the video, 661 00:38:28.920 --> 00:38:33.440 it's not their fault. Overserved means implies their victims. So 662 00:38:33.559 --> 00:38:36.719 the real problem, the root cause. Don't worry about the video. 663 00:38:37.119 --> 00:38:40.679 It's probably going to be the bartenders and the establishments 664 00:38:40.719 --> 00:38:45.480 down there. Anything along with the statement and wherever came 665 00:38:45.519 --> 00:38:47.960 out of the media that said no, no, no, no, 666 00:38:48.480 --> 00:38:51.639 there was a it's a big mixed race group, not 667 00:38:51.960 --> 00:38:55.800 just one. Just because somebody says it doesn't change what's 668 00:38:55.840 --> 00:39:00.920 on that video. And I applied Christopher Smitherman yesterday for 669 00:39:01.039 --> 00:39:05.599 stepping up and saying, yes, the NAACP could be the 670 00:39:05.679 --> 00:39:09.639 bridge should step up. Are we to believe that the 671 00:39:10.000 --> 00:39:13.320 gangs of teens in town is that also a mixed race? 672 00:39:13.480 --> 00:39:16.039 If there's Asians and mix with white kids, mixed with 673 00:39:16.159 --> 00:39:20.280 Black kids, mixed with Indian kids, and maybe Native Americans, 674 00:39:20.320 --> 00:39:23.199 they're all running around as one big group until we 675 00:39:23.440 --> 00:39:27.000 get to the truth and say something's going on and 676 00:39:27.239 --> 00:39:30.280 there needs to be some help or some intervention, or 677 00:39:30.360 --> 00:39:32.519 the people of that community need to step up, or 678 00:39:32.559 --> 00:39:35.480 they needs to be law enforcement. Then we can continue 679 00:39:35.480 --> 00:39:38.559 to do what liberals do, which is don't look here, 680 00:39:38.679 --> 00:39:42.480 this isn't the problem. Or we could say, hey, let's 681 00:39:42.519 --> 00:39:44.800 take another look at that thing. But right now they're 682 00:39:44.840 --> 00:39:48.079 short on facts. So what do they always do? It's 683 00:39:48.119 --> 00:39:50.360 not this isn't the problem. It's not a racial thing. 684 00:39:50.480 --> 00:39:53.559 But if that was a black person and a black woman, 685 00:39:53.960 --> 00:39:56.719 black men and black women that got beat down, they 686 00:39:56.719 --> 00:39:59.320 would own, like I said yesterday, they would own the 687 00:39:59.440 --> 00:40:02.519 victimhood and the NAACP and al Sharkon would already be 688 00:40:02.599 --> 00:40:07.639 marching in the streets demanding justice and probably getting it. Well, yeah, 689 00:40:08.800 --> 00:40:11.239 just because the media says that it's you know, hey, 690 00:40:11.320 --> 00:40:14.360 it's it's there was a mixed I would love to 691 00:40:14.400 --> 00:40:16.519 hear what Dad says again, did say there was a 692 00:40:16.599 --> 00:40:19.119 mixed group of people in the crowd? Oh buy that 693 00:40:19.599 --> 00:40:21.320 there's a mixed group of people in the city. 694 00:40:22.239 --> 00:40:23.320 Take a look at the video. 695 00:40:23.440 --> 00:40:24.480 The video doesn't lie. 696 00:40:25.360 --> 00:40:28.840 And for Teresa theeg you know, she sounded like a schoolmarm. 697 00:40:28.920 --> 00:40:31.280 She sounded like a substitute teacher that would sit there 698 00:40:31.320 --> 00:40:34.320 and wag her chubby finger at us kids in the class. 699 00:40:35.079 --> 00:40:37.239 She didn't have one solution about what she was going 700 00:40:37.320 --> 00:40:39.360 to do different. With the power given to her, with 701 00:40:39.960 --> 00:40:43.320 with her her position of authority, all she can do 702 00:40:43.440 --> 00:40:46.159 is wag her finger and say that this is unacceptable 703 00:40:46.239 --> 00:40:48.639 and somehow bitch at the people of Cincinnati that it's 704 00:40:48.679 --> 00:40:51.679 unacceptable that there was only one nine one one call. 705 00:40:52.119 --> 00:40:54.159 You know what's unacceptable is there was no cops in 706 00:40:54.239 --> 00:40:56.639 the area, and that's at her feet. 707 00:40:57.519 --> 00:40:59.039 Yeah, that's her responsibility. 708 00:40:59.199 --> 00:41:02.079 The extra troll shift ended at two am, and of 709 00:41:02.159 --> 00:41:05.400 course this unfolded shortly after three am, so I guess 710 00:41:05.480 --> 00:41:07.599 the cops have been pulled from the streets by that time. 711 00:41:07.920 --> 00:41:10.559 But maybe we have. She stumbled upon a solution, Jay, 712 00:41:11.000 --> 00:41:13.920 after we've already banned the red bikes and the motorized 713 00:41:13.920 --> 00:41:16.239 scooters during certain hours of the night, maybe we just 714 00:41:16.320 --> 00:41:18.719 need to get rid of the service of alcohol. Let's 715 00:41:18.760 --> 00:41:21.199 just shut the bars down. Then we won't have any 716 00:41:21.280 --> 00:41:26.239 alcohol related incidents happening, assuming alcohol was related, and that's 717 00:41:26.280 --> 00:41:30.400 an assumption they haven't looked into yet. I appreciate it, Jay, 718 00:41:30.639 --> 00:41:32.639 Mississippi James, no time for you right now, but if 719 00:41:32.639 --> 00:41:34.199 you don't mind holding I'll be happy to get your 720 00:41:34.239 --> 00:41:35.719 call right after the top of the hour news. 721 00:41:35.760 --> 00:41:40.280 I'll be right back Today's top stories.

According to Christopher Smithman, that is 730 00:42:08.679 --> 00:42:13.599 parlance for uncle Tom. So it irked him. And he's 731 00:42:13.599 --> 00:42:15.880 been called Uncle Tom many times.

He said they 786 00:45:04.880 --> 00:45:08.760 had a festival and a similar incident happened in Davenport, Iowa. 787 00:45:09.239 --> 00:45:11.960 It's like peaceful Davenport, Iowa. Yeah, it can hit the 788 00:45:12.039 --> 00:45:12.960 fan there as well. 789 00:45:13.239 --> 00:45:18.400 So I don't seem like what I can piece that 790 00:45:18.920 --> 00:45:23.039 was almost an isolated accident. Seemed like a festival went 791 00:45:23.119 --> 00:45:27.559 off decent and then whatever happened in that moment of 792 00:45:27.880 --> 00:45:31.960 whatever is not clear yet, but uh, you know, people's 793 00:45:32.320 --> 00:45:36.119 spread it up and winding it out and make it 794 00:45:36.239 --> 00:45:39.760 cover so much so you have to be careful how 795 00:45:39.880 --> 00:45:40.719 you describe it. 796 00:45:41.000 --> 00:45:48.239 Yes, sir, absolutely, Let cooler heads prevail, James, let cooler 797 00:45:48.280 --> 00:45:50.719 heads prevail.

Former Anderson 800 00:45:54.760 --> 00:45:57.800 Township trustee Drew Pappas. Always a pleasure to hear from you, sir. 801 00:45:57.920 --> 00:46:00.280 Welcome to the morning show, Ryan. 802 00:46:00.400 --> 00:46:02.480 What a show you have lined up to they I 803 00:46:02.519 --> 00:46:04.800 mean you you're probably going to stretch it to six hours. 804 00:46:04.840 --> 00:46:09.920 You have so much information post out there today, listen, 805 00:46:10.320 --> 00:46:12.559 so many ways to go on this story. 806 00:46:12.360 --> 00:46:16.360 Out of Cincinnati is people are contacting me from all 807 00:46:16.440 --> 00:46:19.039 over the country. Hey, Cincinnati's in the news, and you 808 00:46:19.119 --> 00:46:25.719 know it's it's national news. Things pop out, I guess 809 00:46:25.800 --> 00:46:27.320 the direction I want to go in, And a lot 810 00:46:27.360 --> 00:46:31.119 of people lamant. They're saying, oh my god, everything's politics. 811 00:46:31.480 --> 00:46:35.119 Why is this political? Why is this politics? You could 812 00:46:35.159 --> 00:46:37.199 have seen this coming in a way. 813 00:46:37.639 --> 00:46:40.079 The incident, yes occur, you mentioned it yourself. 814 00:46:40.199 --> 00:46:44.920 Bad things happen in every community, right What what we 815 00:46:45.079 --> 00:46:50.159 are questioning and what needs to be questioned is the 816 00:46:50.760 --> 00:46:53.920 not necessarily the police response. 817 00:46:53.519 --> 00:46:55.559 Because the police can only do as they're directed by 818 00:46:55.599 --> 00:46:59.320 their leadership, but the where how are they directed? How 819 00:46:59.400 --> 00:47:03.519 many authors ron duty? You had three major events going 820 00:47:03.559 --> 00:47:05.800 on downtown Cincinnati. What was the coverage? 821 00:47:06.360 --> 00:47:09.400 Single ninety signal ninety nine on Facebook has done a 822 00:47:09.480 --> 00:47:13.760 remarkable job doing some digging. Unlike our local press, which 823 00:47:13.920 --> 00:47:16.960 describes do you ever wonder why when there is a 824 00:47:18.199 --> 00:47:18.960 incident like this? 825 00:47:19.159 --> 00:47:19.840 They describe it. 826 00:47:19.960 --> 00:47:23.000 The local press and national media say it's an isolated incident. 827 00:47:23.199 --> 00:47:23.800 Yes it is. 828 00:47:24.320 --> 00:47:27.840 But when one police officer has a either a bad. 829 00:47:27.760 --> 00:47:32.519 Reaction to a incident, a traffic stop, whatever, much like 830 00:47:32.800 --> 00:47:36.760 might have happened in the Covington Bridge. That's that's an epidemic. 831 00:47:36.960 --> 00:47:39.920 That's a police epidemic. We have an epidemic of police violence, 832 00:47:40.000 --> 00:47:43.079 but not an isolated incident. Think of the millions of 833 00:47:43.159 --> 00:47:46.039 police interactions every day in this country and one of 834 00:47:46.119 --> 00:47:49.760 them is not described as an isolated incident. It just 835 00:47:49.840 --> 00:47:54.239 yet another reason why the let starts crowing about defunding 836 00:47:54.400 --> 00:47:55.800 or reimagining police. 837 00:47:56.000 --> 00:47:58.800 Do you ever wonder about that? Maybe that's political bias, 838 00:47:58.960 --> 00:48:01.079 media bias. Yes, they think it is. 839 00:48:01.800 --> 00:48:02.519 They think it is. 840 00:48:03.519 --> 00:48:07.480 And you know, I'd like to say something else. You 841 00:48:07.679 --> 00:48:10.000 mentioned mayor Aftab? 842 00:48:10.440 --> 00:48:14.199 Okay, how long did he wait before he issued some 843 00:48:15.400 --> 00:48:20.079 well crafted probably I would say, uh, screened or at 844 00:48:20.159 --> 00:48:22.760 least checked for results. 845 00:48:22.880 --> 00:48:24.440 You know, what is that poll checked? 846 00:48:25.039 --> 00:48:25.159 Uh? 847 00:48:25.440 --> 00:48:26.400 Statement out there? 848 00:48:26.639 --> 00:48:31.920 He read it through legal correct And I'd like to ask. 849 00:48:31.760 --> 00:48:34.079 One other question. You mentioned it as well, but I'm 850 00:48:34.119 --> 00:48:35.320 going to ask it as well. 851 00:48:36.119 --> 00:48:39.159 Where is Aftab? I noticed I noticed you did a 852 00:48:39.280 --> 00:48:42.360 zoom thing. Was is he is he on a you know, 853 00:48:42.519 --> 00:48:44.719 a political junket? 854 00:48:45.199 --> 00:48:46.119 Is he is he lying? 855 00:48:46.239 --> 00:48:46.360 You know? 856 00:48:46.440 --> 00:48:48.840 It is the political season coming up? Is he meeting 857 00:48:48.960 --> 00:48:51.320 somewhere with the power of the Democrat powers that be 858 00:48:51.480 --> 00:48:51.960 that might. 859 00:48:51.880 --> 00:48:54.039 Be grooming him for the seems to be. 860 00:48:54.119 --> 00:48:55.960 Always has the eye on the next rung of the 861 00:48:56.039 --> 00:48:58.920 ladder rather than the current step of the ladder that 862 00:48:59.000 --> 00:49:02.559 he occupies. I so many questions, and as far as 863 00:49:02.599 --> 00:49:06.239 it being political, this is what happens. 864 00:49:07.199 --> 00:49:09.280 Elections have consequences. 865 00:49:09.440 --> 00:49:14.840 You elect people that don't put police at the priority, 866 00:49:15.039 --> 00:49:18.639 public safety as the priority. You could see this coming 867 00:49:18.719 --> 00:49:22.039 down the road because what do we have. We have 868 00:49:23.239 --> 00:49:28.760 week leadership, we have weak prosecutor. I'm not going to 869 00:49:28.800 --> 00:49:31.880 say necessarily prosecute that remains to be seen, but seems 870 00:49:31.920 --> 00:49:34.800 to be weak prosecutor that would rather be out protesting 871 00:49:34.880 --> 00:49:38.280 than standing with police, protesting tesla dealerships. 872 00:49:38.320 --> 00:49:38.719 Remember that. 873 00:49:39.480 --> 00:49:42.639 And I would say also that you have judges, a 874 00:49:42.880 --> 00:49:48.079 history now of judges doing just remarkably weak bonds, having 875 00:49:48.239 --> 00:49:49.559 weak sentences, and not. 876 00:49:49.719 --> 00:49:51.920 Putting a priority on supporting the police. 877 00:49:52.039 --> 00:49:54.280 Did dare I mentioned how the police are treated in 878 00:49:54.360 --> 00:50:00.400 some courtrooms here in Cincinnati. Yeah, I mean this is predictable, folks. 879 00:50:00.960 --> 00:50:03.880 Elections have consequences. You might not like the fact that 880 00:50:04.039 --> 00:50:07.920 this has gone political because it's a terrible incident. 881 00:50:08.039 --> 00:50:11.440 I saw they arrested five people. Would my question was 882 00:50:11.519 --> 00:50:13.000 that five or five dozen. 883 00:50:13.679 --> 00:50:18.760 I just don't understand how you cannot make the very 884 00:50:19.000 --> 00:50:24.679 clear connection. Sadly, this is political because elections have consequences, 885 00:50:24.800 --> 00:50:28.679 and you know what, That's why many people don't want 886 00:50:28.719 --> 00:50:29.480 to go downtown. 887 00:50:29.880 --> 00:50:30.679 That's why many. 888 00:50:30.519 --> 00:50:34.199 People have left downtown and moved out to the conservative run, 889 00:50:34.519 --> 00:50:40.000 conservative led, largely Republican suburbs of Cincinnati where they were 890 00:50:40.119 --> 00:50:44.440 where the local leadership puts public safety as the number 891 00:50:44.519 --> 00:50:48.960 one priority and responsibility of any government. Like there you go, 892 00:50:49.199 --> 00:50:55.920 like Anderson, like Anderson Township, like Anderson Township, like Green Township, 893 00:50:56.239 --> 00:50:59.039 like Sycamore town I can mention you know all the 894 00:50:59.159 --> 00:51:00.880 townships around Cincinnati that. 895 00:51:00.960 --> 00:51:06.360 Are largely largely conservative run, Republican run, where the number 896 00:51:06.400 --> 00:51:11.000 one priority of any government, anytime you have anyone in office, 897 00:51:11.280 --> 00:51:14.440 the first priority, the main priority is public safety. 898 00:51:14.559 --> 00:51:16.039 Everything else flows from that. 899 00:51:16.360 --> 00:51:16.639 It does. 900 00:51:16.719 --> 00:51:20.880 Shiny toys are great, Okay, street cars are great if 901 00:51:20.920 --> 00:51:21.800 you can afford them. 902 00:51:22.039 --> 00:51:23.599 That stuff comes after the fact. 903 00:51:24.199 --> 00:51:26.519 Got to have public safety first. You've got to support 904 00:51:26.559 --> 00:51:27.000 the police. 905 00:51:27.039 --> 00:51:30.079 The police have to know that they are supported by 906 00:51:30.119 --> 00:51:30.920 their administration. 907 00:51:31.000 --> 00:51:32.719 They're not going to be second guests. You're not gonna 908 00:51:32.719 --> 00:51:35.239 be micromanaged, You're not going to have someone looking over 909 00:51:35.320 --> 00:51:37.119 their shoulder every second. 910 00:51:36.880 --> 00:51:37.239 Of the day. 911 00:51:37.760 --> 00:51:42.119 We need proactive rather than reactive policing. Need to get 912 00:51:42.159 --> 00:51:45.079 back to that the broken window theory. And I mean, 913 00:51:45.119 --> 00:51:48.480 I tell you this is predictable as the day is long. 914 00:51:48.639 --> 00:51:50.239 Well you know what drew as you say that it 915 00:51:50.320 --> 00:51:53.280 is predictable. Now what do we have as a guide Now? 916 00:51:53.320 --> 00:51:55.199 I always make this argument when it comes to people 917 00:51:55.239 --> 00:51:58.480 who embrace socialism. Every time it's been tried, it has 918 00:51:58.559 --> 00:52:01.880 resulted in a catastrope topic failure of economies across this 919 00:52:02.000 --> 00:52:04.840 great planet of ours. Every country has gone down that road. 920 00:52:05.079 --> 00:52:08.119 Look see what happened over there. We shouldn't do that 921 00:52:08.280 --> 00:52:11.000 because it doesn't work. We could do that with this 922 00:52:11.519 --> 00:52:14.400 no defund the police. Look at Portland, look at Los Angeles, 923 00:52:14.480 --> 00:52:16.519 look at San Francisco, look a look at all the 924 00:52:16.559 --> 00:52:20.159 places where they pursued this sort of you know idea 925 00:52:20.360 --> 00:52:22.920 that we need to rethink or reimagine police. In the 926 00:52:22.960 --> 00:52:25.679 anthemath that aftermath that George Floyd and all the protests 927 00:52:25.679 --> 00:52:28.639 about police departments being so racist, well okay, let's get 928 00:52:28.719 --> 00:52:30.559 rid of the racist. But you know the idea of 929 00:52:30.639 --> 00:52:34.440 getting rid of police is stupid, and we knew it 930 00:52:34.599 --> 00:52:36.199 was stupid, and you know it's going to end up 931 00:52:36.199 --> 00:52:38.159 in a bad way because we got all these cities 932 00:52:38.199 --> 00:52:40.199 out there that have done this in advance of our 933 00:52:40.239 --> 00:52:43.440 embracing the concept, and their cities have gone gone into 934 00:52:43.480 --> 00:52:44.039 the toilet. 935 00:52:45.400 --> 00:52:46.960 I'd like to mention something else. 936 00:52:47.039 --> 00:52:48.079 I saw some I saw. 937 00:52:48.320 --> 00:52:51.519 I saw that Bernie Marino released a statement.

He's always insightful and thoughtful. Former 1084 00:59:50.960 --> 00:59:52.679 Vice Mayor of the City of Cincinnati. Coming off the 1085 00:59:52.719 --> 00:59:55.719 heels of yesterday's Spleen event where you were on fire, 1086 00:59:55.840 --> 00:59:58.039 Welcome back, Christopher. Good to have you on the show today. 1087 00:59:58.880 --> 01:00:01.519 Oh thank you Brian for giving me a little bit 1088 01:00:01.599 --> 01:00:04.119 more time. And I've been listening to the show and 1089 01:00:04.239 --> 01:00:10.559 one of the things that always inspires me is, you know, 1090 01:00:10.920 --> 01:00:16.719 really the your listening audience being so dialed in and 1091 01:00:16.920 --> 01:00:20.719 on point, and I mean that, and so, like, first 1092 01:00:20.760 --> 01:00:23.519 of all, I agree that I've been listening to a 1093 01:00:23.599 --> 01:00:27.800 lot of excuses over the last twenty four hours, like 1094 01:00:27.960 --> 01:00:33.199 this notion that people were overserved and therefore we're going 1095 01:00:33.280 --> 01:00:36.840 to go after bars and restaurants, and that then is 1096 01:00:36.920 --> 01:00:42.079 what caused the mayhem in downtown Cincinnati. We've been watching 1097 01:00:42.159 --> 01:00:49.119 this kind of behavior, despicable behavior where young people and 1098 01:00:49.199 --> 01:00:55.039 young adults have been surrounding citizens that they've been walking 1099 01:00:55.119 --> 01:00:58.960 downtown and jumping them indiscriminately and knocking them out. And 1100 01:00:59.079 --> 01:01:02.639 so first the mayor knew this before he went to Cleveland, 1101 01:01:02.719 --> 01:01:07.599 that this was happening. And then yeah, he's in Cleveland. 1102 01:01:07.679 --> 01:01:12.639 He was at a mayor's conference, hob nobby out of town, 1103 01:01:13.360 --> 01:01:16.960 and so he's been making phone calls and conference call Again, 1104 01:01:17.000 --> 01:01:20.639 it reminds me of the La mayor during the fires 1105 01:01:21.159 --> 01:01:25.320 where she went to Africa, right, and then she wondering, 1106 01:01:25.639 --> 01:01:29.239 why are you leaving the city in a time where 1107 01:01:29.400 --> 01:01:32.280 things are on fire. What I'm trying to continue to 1108 01:01:32.440 --> 01:01:35.920 articulate is the mayor knew that we were having problems 1109 01:01:36.039 --> 01:01:39.639 in downtown. This was one This was a weekend where 1110 01:01:40.119 --> 01:01:43.000 three or four events were happening at the same time. 1111 01:01:43.960 --> 01:01:45.840 He would think he would put. 1112 01:01:45.760 --> 01:01:50.239 His political meeting on hold and stay here and do 1113 01:01:50.360 --> 01:01:52.840 his job. He didn't. He was out of town and 1114 01:01:53.000 --> 01:01:56.840 that's why he was disconnected and had continued to be 1115 01:01:56.920 --> 01:01:59.000 disconnected on what is going. 1116 01:01:58.920 --> 01:02:01.119 On in the in the city of Cincinnati. 1117 01:02:01.760 --> 01:02:05.719 But then, but then you have political figures downtown saying 1118 01:02:06.280 --> 01:02:09.880 that the white male used the in words that's what 1119 01:02:10.159 --> 01:02:14.880 caused the mayhem. And so they're floating these these speculative 1120 01:02:15.079 --> 01:02:18.079 comments going, well, did you have you have that on video? 1121 01:02:18.159 --> 01:02:19.360 There's a lot of stuff on video. 1122 01:02:19.440 --> 01:02:21.480 Do you have any of that on audio? No, I 1123 01:02:21.519 --> 01:02:24.199 don't have an artist. That's just what somebody told me. 1124 01:02:24.679 --> 01:02:27.639 I said, Now, why would you go out publicly as 1125 01:02:27.639 --> 01:02:32.320 an elected official and say something that outrageous. Here's most 1126 01:02:32.480 --> 01:02:37.119 likely what happened that there was an altercation between two men. 1127 01:02:37.840 --> 01:02:41.519 We don't know what that altercation was about, right, and 1128 01:02:41.639 --> 01:02:44.800 you would think mono to mono they would be a fight, 1129 01:02:45.000 --> 01:02:50.760 maybe people could disagree, but not fifty people jumping on 1130 01:02:50.920 --> 01:02:53.800 one person, right, And to see the women that were 1131 01:02:53.920 --> 01:02:56.159 kicking that man in the head, not just the men, 1132 01:02:56.440 --> 01:02:58.360 but the women that were kicking that man in the 1133 01:02:58.440 --> 01:03:02.239 head that was attempting murder, right, And then when they 1134 01:03:02.400 --> 01:03:04.719 punch the woman in the face, the grown man who 1135 01:03:04.840 --> 01:03:06.639 punched the woman in the face. And you've heard the 1136 01:03:06.719 --> 01:03:11.159 Vice President of the United States now bring comment about that. Right, 1137 01:03:11.679 --> 01:03:15.760 How can anybody in their right mind, Brian Thomas, justify that, 1138 01:03:16.599 --> 01:03:19.400 Like there are people out here trying to make right 1139 01:03:19.639 --> 01:03:22.199 of something that is wrong. If I could call out 1140 01:03:22.320 --> 01:03:25.840 any African American leader in this town, and I would say, 1141 01:03:26.239 --> 01:03:30.679 we must do a better job of policing ourselves. We 1142 01:03:30.960 --> 01:03:33.880 have to be able to as leaders say that was 1143 01:03:34.280 --> 01:03:38.760 just wrong and not leave this space out here in 1144 01:03:38.840 --> 01:03:42.480 the universe that in some way we can justify that 1145 01:03:42.760 --> 01:03:46.039 really bad behavior that we witnessed on the videotape. And 1146 01:03:46.079 --> 01:03:48.719 I think one of your callers said that we're watching 1147 01:03:48.800 --> 01:03:52.079 the video tape, we see what's happening. Why do people 1148 01:03:52.199 --> 01:03:54.559 keep trying to tell us to not believe our eyes 1149 01:03:54.639 --> 01:03:55.239 and our ears. 1150 01:03:56.519 --> 01:04:02.880 Yeah, it's all legitimate points. Christopher mean everybody's looking for 1151 01:04:02.920 --> 01:04:05.599 an excuse. And that's that's going back to the point 1152 01:04:05.639 --> 01:04:08.360 that I've made, and I've made many times. If okay, 1153 01:04:08.639 --> 01:04:11.039 let's just say for the sake of discussion that you know, 1154 01:04:11.119 --> 01:04:13.079 you've got a lot of problems in your neighborhood, and 1155 01:04:13.119 --> 01:04:15.800 it's brought about because the white man's oppression or whatever. 1156 01:04:16.639 --> 01:04:19.840 How does going out into the world and beating the 1157 01:04:19.960 --> 01:04:22.719 living crap out of another human being that has no 1158 01:04:22.880 --> 01:04:26.079 connection with your world or your environment or your situation 1159 01:04:26.920 --> 01:04:30.679 do anything to better the situation. It's just only going 1160 01:04:30.760 --> 01:04:33.239 to bring about worse conditions, because you know, the ripple 1161 01:04:33.280 --> 01:04:35.400 effect of something like this is like it's happened in 1162 01:04:35.440 --> 01:04:41.000 other major cities with major crime problems, people leave, businesses 1163 01:04:41.440 --> 01:04:47.440 shut down, tax revenue dries up, exacerbating perhaps an already 1164 01:04:47.519 --> 01:04:51.760 bad situation brought about by whatever reason existed or exists. 1165 01:04:52.280 --> 01:04:58.159 It just makes matters worse. I mean absolutely, Sex thirty nine. 1166 01:04:58.159 --> 01:05:00.960 Ifift you have KCD talk station, I always enjoy talking 1167 01:05:01.000 --> 01:05:04.039 with Christopher Smithman and a second opportunity during st there 1168 01:05:04.119 --> 01:05:07.559 this morning right now, Christopher, I didn't mean to cut 1169 01:05:07.639 --> 01:05:09.320 you off. We had to take a quick break there, 1170 01:05:09.440 --> 01:05:11.920 so you had the floor. My friend. 1171 01:05:13.400 --> 01:05:13.639 Brother. 1172 01:05:13.800 --> 01:05:16.400 This was a hate crime, and I want to be 1173 01:05:16.599 --> 01:05:17.559 very clear about that. 1174 01:05:17.840 --> 01:05:19.320 I'm an African American man. 1175 01:05:19.559 --> 01:05:22.920 People who are listening to this station who don't know 1176 01:05:23.079 --> 01:05:29.039 that this was a hate crime. These were African Americans 1177 01:05:29.320 --> 01:05:35.480 downtown who targeted white people. I have a video that 1178 01:05:35.559 --> 01:05:40.559 I just put up yesterday on my ex page where 1179 01:05:41.719 --> 01:05:45.280 a white man looks like he's kind of walking over 1180 01:05:45.400 --> 01:05:50.360 to have a conversation. The person video taping says, oh, oh, oh, oh, 1181 01:05:50.519 --> 01:05:53.559 put him to sleep. Put him the sleep. They punched 1182 01:05:53.639 --> 01:05:56.119 him in the face. We're not even talking about that video. 1183 01:05:56.400 --> 01:06:00.320 Yeah, I know the one you're talking about. You know 1184 01:06:00.559 --> 01:06:03.880 that was racially motivated at least presumably so, because the 1185 01:06:04.079 --> 01:06:07.199 video camera is already rolling and then you got that 1186 01:06:07.400 --> 01:06:10.320 verbal cue. They it was a setup. I'm going to 1187 01:06:10.480 --> 01:06:13.239 record you engaging in. I think they call that the 1188 01:06:13.360 --> 01:06:16.039 knockout game, where you just walk up and randomly punch 1189 01:06:16.119 --> 01:06:18.440 a stranger and knock him out to the ground. 1190 01:06:19.559 --> 01:06:21.960 That's right. And then the person is a person on 1191 01:06:22.039 --> 01:06:25.679 the video that says, karma, karma, this is karma. And 1192 01:06:25.840 --> 01:06:28.119 then they say, don't come out at night. You shouldn't 1193 01:06:28.159 --> 01:06:31.119 be out here at night, right, And then and then 1194 01:06:31.159 --> 01:06:34.960 you see a black man dragging him. First of all, 1195 01:06:35.079 --> 01:06:38.079 a black woman kind of steps over him and kind 1196 01:06:38.119 --> 01:06:40.800 of brushes him with her feet. That was her way 1197 01:06:40.840 --> 01:06:45.679 of saying, you're insignificant, you're nothing but trash. So then 1198 01:06:45.760 --> 01:06:48.519 a man then grabs the white man by his feet 1199 01:06:48.599 --> 01:06:50.480 and they drag him in the middle of the street. 1200 01:06:50.800 --> 01:06:53.920 And he's still he's still knocked out, and he doesn't 1201 01:06:53.920 --> 01:06:56.400 even know what the hell happened. Right then you see 1202 01:06:56.639 --> 01:06:58.599 then you see an African American man come to his 1203 01:06:58.760 --> 01:07:02.440 aid up. He helps them up, and you see him 1204 01:07:02.480 --> 01:07:05.760 trying to provide some protection for him. That was a 1205 01:07:06.079 --> 01:07:11.920 absolute target by those African American citizens against that white 1206 01:07:11.960 --> 01:07:15.480 man because of his race. And so this this notion 1207 01:07:15.719 --> 01:07:18.039 that this wasn't a hate crime. And let me tell 1208 01:07:18.039 --> 01:07:21.920 you something, if this was reversed and I saw a 1209 01:07:22.000 --> 01:07:25.800 group of white people doing the same thing to black people, 1210 01:07:25.960 --> 01:07:28.559 I would be on this station saying that was a 1211 01:07:28.599 --> 01:07:32.760 hate crime, meaning I would say I would be calling 1212 01:07:32.840 --> 01:07:35.960 a ball a ball and a striker strike. What is 1213 01:07:36.000 --> 01:07:39.280 so frustrating for me is that you have the Democrats 1214 01:07:39.360 --> 01:07:41.719 down there at City Hall, the nine of them, the 1215 01:07:41.800 --> 01:07:44.679 nine of his a council, and the mayor that keep 1216 01:07:44.840 --> 01:07:48.199 trying to make excuses for this bad behavior. They're talking 1217 01:07:48.280 --> 01:07:52.519 about Now it was alcohol, or somebody used the N word, 1218 01:07:52.880 --> 01:07:56.960 which now you know triggers like this was okay, this 1219 01:07:57.159 --> 01:08:00.639 was okay behavior, or this had nothing to do with 1220 01:08:00.760 --> 01:08:04.800 the music festival, all of these things that they keep 1221 01:08:04.880 --> 01:08:08.039 asserting that are not at the route that they do 1222 01:08:08.239 --> 01:08:10.920 not have control of crime in our city. Number one. 1223 01:08:11.039 --> 01:08:14.960 Number two, that this absolutely should be investigated as a 1224 01:08:15.000 --> 01:08:18.479 hate crime, and that there should be federal charges in 1225 01:08:18.680 --> 01:08:22.439 federal court, just like if this was reverse and there 1226 01:08:22.479 --> 01:08:25.520 were a group of white people that have surrounded black 1227 01:08:25.600 --> 01:08:28.920 people and beat the hell out of them in downtown Cincinnati. 1228 01:08:29.479 --> 01:08:32.079 And so that's why I liked that the Vice president 1229 01:08:32.159 --> 01:08:35.239 spoke out about it. We've got to be equal handed 1230 01:08:35.319 --> 01:08:38.560 with these things, and those people who engaged in the 1231 01:08:38.680 --> 01:08:42.600 most hateous part of this crime should be charged with 1232 01:08:43.279 --> 01:08:46.840 a hate crime and should be facing twenty years to 1233 01:08:47.079 --> 01:08:50.399 life in prison in federal court. Period. 1234 01:08:51.840 --> 01:08:52.039 Yeah. 1235 01:08:52.600 --> 01:08:55.720 Well, and I am on record, I'm not the guy 1236 01:08:55.760 --> 01:08:58.039 who believes there even should be a law for hate crime. 1237 01:08:58.079 --> 01:08:59.880 To me, if you commit an act of violence like this, 1238 01:09:00.319 --> 01:09:04.560 clearly there is hatred there. I mean it transcends race 1239 01:09:04.640 --> 01:09:09.079 and everything else. We've added on additional charges for actions 1240 01:09:09.279 --> 01:09:15.159 of violence which are already criminal, right because they involve race. 1241 01:09:15.760 --> 01:09:18.680 I mean, I you know, say what you want about it. 1242 01:09:18.760 --> 01:09:20.600 That's my take. That's just my take on it. 1243 01:09:21.239 --> 01:09:21.600 The law. 1244 01:09:22.600 --> 01:09:25.319 You're a lawyer, Brian, I'm not a lawyer. You're a lawyer, 1245 01:09:25.439 --> 01:09:27.920 so I understand what you're saying. You're saying. Listen, this 1246 01:09:28.159 --> 01:09:32.439 was a violent crime. It stands alone. Layered on top 1247 01:09:32.560 --> 01:09:35.600 of it, there could be a racial component to it 1248 01:09:35.760 --> 01:09:40.000 that could add more severity to the charges than the crimes. 1249 01:09:40.039 --> 01:09:42.239 And those laws are on the books. I'm not denying 1250 01:09:42.239 --> 01:09:44.079 they're not on the books. I just I always feel 1251 01:09:44.079 --> 01:09:46.560 like I need to interject my personal feelings about that. 1252 01:09:47.239 --> 01:09:50.640 No, No, I understand it. I'm saying, if if it's 1253 01:09:50.800 --> 01:09:53.720 good for the goose, is good for the gamers. We've 1254 01:09:53.800 --> 01:09:56.680 got to be able to call this stuff out because 1255 01:09:56.720 --> 01:09:59.960 if we don't, this is what is frustrating me about 1256 01:10:00.119 --> 01:10:04.199 African American leaders that are on city Council. I know, 1257 01:10:04.439 --> 01:10:07.239 if this was reversed, I know, if there were a 1258 01:10:07.319 --> 01:10:11.199 group of white people who had surrounded some black people 1259 01:10:11.319 --> 01:10:13.760 downtown and beat the hell out of them, that we 1260 01:10:13.840 --> 01:10:18.039 would have people at the county level, the county commission level, 1261 01:10:18.479 --> 01:10:21.359 at the city council level, and the mayor's office would 1262 01:10:21.439 --> 01:10:24.680 all be demanding that the federal government coming here and 1263 01:10:24.880 --> 01:10:29.239 file all the criminal charges of assault that you're talking about. 1264 01:10:29.640 --> 01:10:32.359 But they would say, I want to add in on 1265 01:10:32.560 --> 01:10:35.159 the books that this was a hate crime. That's what 1266 01:10:35.319 --> 01:10:37.760 I want to be on the record saying, as one 1267 01:10:37.880 --> 01:10:41.560 leader who doesn't speak for the African American community, I 1268 01:10:41.760 --> 01:10:45.680 speak for myself who happens to be African American, that 1269 01:10:45.880 --> 01:10:49.600 this was a hate crime my eyes, what I heard, 1270 01:10:49.760 --> 01:10:55.000 what I saw, the severity of the injuries of the 1271 01:10:55.119 --> 01:10:57.279 people that were attacked, we don't even know if they're 1272 01:10:57.279 --> 01:10:59.640 going to live, meaning, we don't know what the long 1273 01:10:59.800 --> 01:11:04.079 term implications are of what happened to the young lady Holly. 1274 01:11:04.399 --> 01:11:08.239 We now know her first name because the VEK spoke 1275 01:11:08.319 --> 01:11:11.600 to her and extended his support to her, But we 1276 01:11:11.720 --> 01:11:14.359 don't know what her long term health impact is going 1277 01:11:14.439 --> 01:11:16.800 to be from being punched in the face and knocked 1278 01:11:16.800 --> 01:11:19.159 out and hitting the concrete the way she did. We 1279 01:11:19.239 --> 01:11:21.079 don't know what's going to happen to that white man 1280 01:11:21.279 --> 01:11:23.600 who is being kicked in the head his head was 1281 01:11:23.640 --> 01:11:27.399 a football that night, stumped down like that. I haven't 1282 01:11:27.479 --> 01:11:30.319 heard the leaders I'm talking about, whoever is held a 1283 01:11:30.359 --> 01:11:34.000 press conference really bring light to those human beings that 1284 01:11:34.119 --> 01:11:37.560 were being dehumanized in the middle of the street like 1285 01:11:37.720 --> 01:11:41.520 they were animals. They were treated worse than dogs, the 1286 01:11:41.640 --> 01:11:44.520 way they were stumped down in the street. We've got 1287 01:11:44.680 --> 01:11:48.479 to have leadership that caused this craziness out. I wish 1288 01:11:48.600 --> 01:11:51.439 there were other African American leaders in this town that 1289 01:11:51.520 --> 01:11:54.359 would just stand up and say, not only was it 1290 01:11:54.560 --> 01:11:58.279 wrong right and call out the bad behavior, but say 1291 01:11:58.319 --> 01:12:00.960 it was a hate crime. And man that the federal 1292 01:12:01.039 --> 01:12:04.520 government coming here and press charges against everybody who people 1293 01:12:04.560 --> 01:12:07.760 who are videotaping it, I think that they are a 1294 01:12:07.880 --> 01:12:10.000 part of it. The people who are doing the kicking, 1295 01:12:10.359 --> 01:12:12.760 I think they were a part of it. And I 1296 01:12:12.840 --> 01:12:15.800 think we should confiscate all of their cell phones and 1297 01:12:15.960 --> 01:12:19.840 figure out who said what when and continue to charge everybody. 1298 01:12:20.319 --> 01:12:22.520 And I think, Brian, if we don't do that, this 1299 01:12:22.680 --> 01:12:25.920 is gonna happen again, Brian Talmins, and this time, and 1300 01:12:26.039 --> 01:12:28.079 this time it's gonna be me and you. We're just 1301 01:12:28.199 --> 01:12:32.920 walking downtown having dinner. We're gonna be surrounded and a 1302 01:12:32.960 --> 01:12:34.840 group of people are gonna think they could just take 1303 01:12:34.840 --> 01:12:36.880 away our rights and beat the hell out of us 1304 01:12:37.239 --> 01:12:38.840 in the middle of the street. And by the way, 1305 01:12:39.319 --> 01:12:41.720 I'm on record telling you I'm not gonna take it. 1306 01:12:42.319 --> 01:12:45.760 I'm not that guy that you're gonna just surround and 1307 01:12:45.960 --> 01:12:49.199 beat and take. I'm gonna concealed carry I'm not gonna 1308 01:12:49.239 --> 01:12:52.760 take this kind of beatdown. Those people did not deserve it. 1309 01:12:52.880 --> 01:12:56.039 Those human beings did not deserve what was dished out 1310 01:12:56.159 --> 01:12:59.560 in downtown Cincinnati. And I'm tired of the mayor. I'm 1311 01:12:59.600 --> 01:13:02.239 tired of even I like Beiji. I'm tired of the 1312 01:13:02.319 --> 01:13:05.399 police chief. I'm tired of the city council worried about 1313 01:13:05.439 --> 01:13:09.079 the economics. They're worried about people coming downtown to the 1314 01:13:09.199 --> 01:13:13.279 music festival, coming to the restaurant. We've already determined we're 1315 01:13:13.359 --> 01:13:16.920 not going downtown. City leaders, you cannot keep us safe. 1316 01:13:17.000 --> 01:13:19.279 We're not coming down to any restaurants. I'm not going 1317 01:13:19.359 --> 01:13:21.319 to a ball gay. I'm not going to send my 1318 01:13:21.439 --> 01:13:24.600 precious daughter down there with her friends. I'm worried about 1319 01:13:24.640 --> 01:13:28.199 her being attacked. We've already established that what they should 1320 01:13:28.199 --> 01:13:30.840 be doing right now. Brian Thomas is saying, we're going 1321 01:13:30.920 --> 01:13:34.079 to make sure this never happens again by holding everybody 1322 01:13:34.159 --> 01:13:35.840 accountable to the fullest extent. 1323 01:13:35.680 --> 01:13:36.079 Of the law. 1324 01:13:36.279 --> 01:13:39.000 Yeah, and you know, talk about reimagining the police. How 1325 01:13:39.039 --> 01:13:42.399 about reimagining police? Am I putting them on the streets 1326 01:13:42.800 --> 01:13:45.319 in critical times when lots and lots and lots of 1327 01:13:45.439 --> 01:13:49.279 people are enjoying multiple activities going on and enjoying the 1328 01:13:49.439 --> 01:13:52.920 Dora District late at night and congregating right there. We 1329 01:13:53.000 --> 01:13:54.760 all know where the folks are going to be gathered. 1330 01:13:54.840 --> 01:13:58.039 Let's put some cops on the streets there. And yet 1331 01:13:58.119 --> 01:13:59.760 you know you wait, wait till you. 1332 01:13:59.760 --> 01:14:02.760 Hear nothing takes from that what you just said that 1333 01:14:02.920 --> 01:14:06.239 is so critical as a solution. Well, there was a 1334 01:14:06.319 --> 01:14:10.960 woman that came on. I gave Lincoln Ware an interview yesterday, 1335 01:14:11.880 --> 01:14:13.800 which has been very rare, but I gave him an 1336 01:14:13.840 --> 01:14:17.199 interview yesterday to talk about this that we got to 1337 01:14:17.359 --> 01:14:20.079 as our community called this out call a ball a 1338 01:14:20.159 --> 01:14:23.680 ball and a strike a strike. One of the city employees, 1339 01:14:23.720 --> 01:14:26.520 her name is Irish Rowley, somebody who's done some good 1340 01:14:26.560 --> 01:14:30.680 work around the collaborative agreement, but clearly does not like 1341 01:14:30.800 --> 01:14:34.319 the police department. If you ask the command staff if 1342 01:14:34.399 --> 01:14:37.359 you ask the everyday police officer out there, do you 1343 01:14:37.479 --> 01:14:40.800 think Irish Roly supports you? Right now, we're not talking 1344 01:14:40.840 --> 01:14:44.199 about her calling out bad behavior. We're talking broadly. Well, 1345 01:14:44.239 --> 01:14:47.960 the mayor has hired her, the city manager has hired her. 1346 01:14:48.720 --> 01:14:51.119 I don't believe she should be on the air ever 1347 01:14:51.520 --> 01:14:56.079 talking about these matters without disclosing that she's being compensated 1348 01:14:56.159 --> 01:14:58.760 by the City of Cincinnati. But this is not a 1349 01:14:58.880 --> 01:15:02.680 person who has had a most recent history. If you 1350 01:15:02.840 --> 01:15:05.960 ask the FOP president, if you ask a police officer 1351 01:15:06.279 --> 01:15:09.039 officer out there, is this somebody that supports the police. 1352 01:15:09.399 --> 01:15:12.479 It's not somebody that does that. This is somebody that's 1353 01:15:12.560 --> 01:15:16.119 out here who is from what I heard yesterday, and 1354 01:15:16.199 --> 01:15:21.720 her commentary is justifying the behavior, the bad behavior as 1355 01:15:21.800 --> 01:15:25.399 a city employee. So such a bad look for the mayor, 1356 01:15:25.840 --> 01:15:28.319 such a bad look for the city manager to have 1357 01:15:28.520 --> 01:15:31.880 her out there being paid and really basically saying that 1358 01:15:32.039 --> 01:15:34.359 what happened to those white people is okay. 1359 01:15:35.119 --> 01:15:37.479 They in other words, they deserve what they got. 1360 01:15:38.800 --> 01:15:41.760 Correct. That's from the mayor's office, that's from the city 1361 01:15:41.840 --> 01:15:45.359 manager's office. That's who they're hiring down there, and they 1362 01:15:45.399 --> 01:15:48.159 should be very cautious about keeping her off the radio 1363 01:15:48.760 --> 01:15:51.039 while we're trying to sort this thing out. Well, I 1364 01:15:51.319 --> 01:15:54.039 want people to know that her name is Irish Rollie, 1365 01:15:54.239 --> 01:15:55.920 and I just don't think she should be on the 1366 01:15:56.000 --> 01:15:59.279 air representing the mayor and the city manager acting as 1367 01:15:59.359 --> 01:16:02.159 if what happened to those white people in the middle 1368 01:16:02.199 --> 01:16:05.600 of our downtown was okay. Actually, also know that she 1369 01:16:05.680 --> 01:16:07.439 has a history of not supporting the police. 1370 01:16:07.760 --> 01:16:10.199 That is well demonstrated. I know who you're talking about, 1371 01:16:10.239 --> 01:16:12.439 but let's face it, we have a free speech in 1372 01:16:12.479 --> 01:16:15.119 this world. And quite honestly, Christopher, I'm glad she came 1373 01:16:15.199 --> 01:16:18.079 out and was so brutally honest and saying she thinks 1374 01:16:18.239 --> 01:16:20.880 they deserve it, and that we know she is on 1375 01:16:21.279 --> 01:16:24.640 the mayor's staff. That's good. Now we have a perspective 1376 01:16:24.680 --> 01:16:26.840 on what the mayor's office perspective is and who he 1377 01:16:26.960 --> 01:16:29.800 surrounds him with. So that's good information to know, Christopher. 1378 01:16:29.880 --> 01:16:31.960 So thank you Lincoln Ware for having her on the show. 1379 01:16:33.000 --> 01:16:35.880 Yes, let me and let me say, Brian, those weren't 1380 01:16:35.960 --> 01:16:40.279 her exact words, but it was the implication that in 1381 01:16:40.479 --> 01:16:45.079 some way, let's justify what has happened. I appreciate the time, 1382 01:16:45.520 --> 01:16:47.760 I appreciate the time. Brother, We're going to get to 1383 01:16:47.840 --> 01:16:51.319 the bottom of it, and let's look for charges federal crime, 1384 01:16:51.479 --> 01:16:52.119 federal court. 1385 01:16:52.520 --> 01:16:54.359 Always love him and you on, Christopher, God bless you. 1386 01:16:54.399 --> 01:16:59.960 We'll talk again, God bless you. Check often for what's developing. 1387 01:17:00.119 --> 01:17:03.640 Developing out of the Middle East now right now it's developing. 1388 01:17:03.800 --> 01:17:24.960 Fifty five JRC the Talk station to shy seven six 1389 01:17:25.039 --> 01:17:28.039 Here fifty five KR City Talk Station. Looking forward to 1390 01:17:28.079 --> 01:17:32.039 this segment all morning. Always enjoy hearing from our favorite 1391 01:17:32.159 --> 01:17:34.960 Ken Blackwell. And he really needs no introduction from my 1392 01:17:35.079 --> 01:17:37.319 listening audience. Bye bye. Way of background, former mayor of 1393 01:17:37.359 --> 01:17:39.720 the City of Cincinnati, Ohio State Treasurer and High Secretary 1394 01:17:39.760 --> 01:17:42.479 of State. He's an activist, he's an author, and he's 1395 01:17:42.760 --> 01:17:45.199 with the American First Policy Institute as the chair of 1396 01:17:45.239 --> 01:17:48.560 the Center for Election Integrity. He is Ken Blackwell. Ken, 1397 01:17:48.680 --> 01:17:51.000 thank you so much for green to spend some time 1398 01:17:51.039 --> 01:17:51.920 with my listeners. 1399 01:17:51.640 --> 01:17:52.279 And me this morning. 1400 01:17:53.600 --> 01:17:54.920 Brian, it's always good to be with. 1401 01:17:55.039 --> 01:17:58.039 You, always a pleasure having you on and right out 1402 01:17:58.079 --> 01:17:59.560 of the gate. Of course, you know what happened on 1403 01:17:59.640 --> 01:18:02.439 early Saturday morning here in the city of Cincinnati. The 1404 01:18:02.560 --> 01:18:05.399 beatdown experienced by two people we don't know what led 1405 01:18:05.439 --> 01:18:07.880 to the beatdown, But no one can justify it, and 1406 01:18:07.880 --> 01:18:09.920 it doesn't seem to be that many people are trying 1407 01:18:09.960 --> 01:18:14.000 to justify it, although some are how it could be justified. 1408 01:18:14.039 --> 01:18:16.239 I have no idea. No one is deserving of that 1409 01:18:16.399 --> 01:18:18.840 kind of treatment, most notably the woman who got punched 1410 01:18:19.159 --> 01:18:22.800 Kolcock right in the face by some guy. Your response, 1411 01:18:22.840 --> 01:18:26.319 your reaction, and I know you've digested mayor aftab provols 1412 01:18:26.439 --> 01:18:28.880 very late in the game, reaction to the incident. What's 1413 01:18:28.920 --> 01:18:32.159 your take on this, Ken Blackwell, what my take is 1414 01:18:32.239 --> 01:18:32.520 that the. 1415 01:18:32.520 --> 01:18:39.880 First obligation of local governments is to provide safe neighborhoods 1416 01:18:40.640 --> 01:18:47.359 and safe streets. And it doesn't take a rocket scientist 1417 01:18:47.479 --> 01:18:54.479 to know that Cincinnati is experiencing arise in street crime. 1418 01:18:55.079 --> 01:18:57.680 Now there are those who would say, well, it's not 1419 01:18:57.960 --> 01:19:01.079 valent crime, but one o the things that you, you know, 1420 01:19:01.560 --> 01:19:03.520 if you've been around on the basis a little bit, 1421 01:19:04.520 --> 01:19:08.920 is that if you reward or ignore bad behavior, or 1422 01:19:09.000 --> 01:19:12.119 you're going to get this more bad behavior and the escalation. 1423 01:19:12.800 --> 01:19:15.840 So the first thing is that we we have to 1424 01:19:15.880 --> 01:19:19.960 admit that we have a problem in terms of the 1425 01:19:20.960 --> 01:19:25.199 situation itself. You know, no matter how you explain if 1426 01:19:25.239 --> 01:19:30.239 it started out as a fight between two people, that 1427 01:19:30.439 --> 01:19:33.720 to fight between two people. But you know, unless you're 1428 01:19:33.720 --> 01:19:36.920 going to us not to believe our lie in eyes, 1429 01:19:37.479 --> 01:19:39.920 what we what we saw was that what might have 1430 01:19:40.000 --> 01:19:44.920 started us a fight between two people escalated into a mob. 1431 01:19:45.119 --> 01:19:48.760 I can't a beatdown which can never be which can 1432 01:19:48.840 --> 01:19:52.680 never be justified. And the and the and the reality 1433 01:19:52.880 --> 01:19:56.279 is is that if you start to excuse this, uh, 1434 01:19:56.720 --> 01:20:00.079 it means that you you ignore the fact, uh that 1435 01:20:00.239 --> 01:20:06.039 Cincinnati has a problem. And the first I mean local 1436 01:20:06.279 --> 01:20:11.880 leaders should inspire, hope, create the opportunity and bring people together. 1437 01:20:12.479 --> 01:20:18.279 And there's been a failure in bringing people together in 1438 01:20:18.520 --> 01:20:23.840 terms of respecting each other's human human dignity. We have 1439 01:20:24.199 --> 01:20:30.079 a challenge, and if we try to downsize it in 1440 01:20:30.279 --> 01:20:34.199 terms of how we define it and this define it, 1441 01:20:35.119 --> 01:20:41.239 the problem is just going to get worse. Well, as 1442 01:20:41.239 --> 01:20:44.640 I've told you on a number of casions, Brian, great 1443 01:20:44.800 --> 01:20:48.680 cities are not the products of great governments, but rather 1444 01:20:49.800 --> 01:20:54.359 the products of good people doing great things together. And 1445 01:20:54.560 --> 01:20:56.920 that's a challenge in Cincinnati right now. 1446 01:20:57.119 --> 01:20:59.439 Well, and it seems to be driven at least over 1447 01:20:59.479 --> 01:21:02.239 the last i'd say maybe ten years or so the 1448 01:21:02.399 --> 01:21:07.479 politics of division. Everyone, you're divided. You're divided. You're not 1449 01:21:07.560 --> 01:21:09.199 in this group, you're not part of my group. 1450 01:21:09.279 --> 01:21:09.760 I hate you. 1451 01:21:09.960 --> 01:21:12.000 You you must agree with me or you're not. I 1452 01:21:12.079 --> 01:21:16.000 mean that it's it's as if there is this concerted 1453 01:21:16.039 --> 01:21:17.720 effort and I'm going to point to the left hand 1454 01:21:17.760 --> 01:21:19.920 side of the ledger for stirring the pot of division. 1455 01:21:20.000 --> 01:21:24.680 It doesn't matter on what subject matter. LGBTQ plus division, division, 1456 01:21:25.359 --> 01:21:29.039 Donald Trump, evil Orange Man division, division, it's just division. 1457 01:21:29.119 --> 01:21:31.199 And then of course there's this racial element that it 1458 01:21:31.239 --> 01:21:34.720 stirred in there. Police are inherently racist. Division. You like 1459 01:21:34.800 --> 01:21:37.159 the police, then you're a racist. I mean, that's the 1460 01:21:37.239 --> 01:21:39.079 mantra we've been hearing now for a long time. 1461 01:21:39.239 --> 01:21:43.760 Ken It's it's it's it's a real problem, and it 1462 01:21:43.960 --> 01:21:46.359 starts to reveal itself. 1463 01:21:46.640 --> 01:21:48.399 And in numbers. 1464 01:21:48.840 --> 01:21:53.640 I mean, there is a decline in our recruits of 1465 01:21:54.600 --> 01:21:58.000 folks to serve as officers or the piece of of 1466 01:21:58.720 --> 01:22:02.920 police officers on on our on our street. Uh, there 1467 01:22:03.079 --> 01:22:06.960 is a real declinent in the morale of those. 1468 01:22:06.760 --> 01:22:08.039 Who are on board. 1469 01:22:08.560 --> 01:22:08.680 Uh. 1470 01:22:09.039 --> 01:22:12.439 How how many times can you here, you know, uh, 1471 01:22:13.159 --> 01:22:17.399 kill the pigs, you know, defund the police. Uh And 1472 01:22:18.039 --> 01:22:23.479 and time after time, you you watch a judicial system 1473 01:22:23.640 --> 01:22:27.079 that is divided. Half of the judges, you know, use 1474 01:22:27.600 --> 01:22:31.960 our apprehensions of criminals and our criminal justice system as 1475 01:22:32.039 --> 01:22:37.359 a revolving door uh mechanism. And and so folks are 1476 01:22:37.399 --> 01:22:39.960 arrested and put right back on a street, cause problems, 1477 01:22:40.359 --> 01:22:44.079 human misery, uh. And you and you only have half 1478 01:22:44.159 --> 01:22:48.359 of our judges that understand that it is in the 1479 01:22:49.199 --> 01:22:56.640 in keeping with their responsibility to provide safe streets and 1480 01:22:56.800 --> 01:22:57.880 safe neighborhoods. 1481 01:22:58.840 --> 01:23:02.279 And that seems to be where the biggest breakdown is 1482 01:23:02.479 --> 01:23:04.920 and that results, you know, going back to law enforcement. 1483 01:23:05.000 --> 01:23:06.680 If the police on the streets are the ones that 1484 01:23:07.039 --> 01:23:09.319 you know, pick up the bad guys, whether they witness 1485 01:23:09.359 --> 01:23:11.399 the crime or not. They're there to find the suspects. 1486 01:23:11.439 --> 01:23:13.960 They present them to the prosecutor's office. And if you 1487 01:23:14.039 --> 01:23:17.279 have a zealous prosecutor, that only goes so far. If 1488 01:23:17.319 --> 01:23:19.279 they end up in front of a liberal judge, they're 1489 01:23:19.319 --> 01:23:21.640 out on no bond. And then of course if they 1490 01:23:21.680 --> 01:23:24.079 get sentenced because they're convicted or and are a plea deal, 1491 01:23:24.359 --> 01:23:26.199 they're let out on the streets with little or no 1492 01:23:26.319 --> 01:23:29.960 penalty to pay. There's the bottom line. It's the judicial system. 1493 01:23:30.720 --> 01:23:36.720 Right, and and and it has a compounding effect. You know, 1494 01:23:36.840 --> 01:23:42.000 I've worked with some of the nation's leading economic thinkers, 1495 01:23:42.760 --> 01:23:47.600 and one of the simple things that you understand as 1496 01:23:47.800 --> 01:23:54.640 a local leader that's concerned with the economic prosperity uh 1497 01:23:54.800 --> 01:23:58.600 and the safety of your community is that capital seeks 1498 01:23:58.720 --> 01:24:03.640 the path of least distance and greatest opportunity. And capital 1499 01:24:04.159 --> 01:24:08.520 hates crime, yes, and so so what what happens is 1500 01:24:09.199 --> 01:24:12.840 that when you have lots of days ago left leaning, 1501 01:24:13.680 --> 01:24:18.680 stupid approach to crime fighting and and the creation of 1502 01:24:19.079 --> 01:24:22.600 safe communities, there's no way that you're going to get 1503 01:24:23.119 --> 01:24:28.279 the uh investment of capital uh to expand your economy, 1504 01:24:28.479 --> 01:24:33.520 create jobs, put your people uh to work uh. And 1505 01:24:33.880 --> 01:24:38.159 and as a consequence, you just see things, you know, 1506 01:24:38.319 --> 01:24:42.680 getting worse and worse, and populations. You know, when you 1507 01:24:43.079 --> 01:24:45.079 when you are at a time when you want to 1508 01:24:45.159 --> 01:24:50.439 just arrest the client and and and uh outward flow 1509 01:24:50.640 --> 01:24:57.079 of population, UH, you find yourself being uh stuck with 1510 01:24:57.239 --> 01:24:59.840 that that that sort of that sort of the client 1511 01:25:00.119 --> 01:25:05.079 that's you know, that's what's so distressing about people who 1512 01:25:05.199 --> 01:25:11.680 want to put on blinders and and not tell people 1513 01:25:12.039 --> 01:25:15.880 the challenge that we face when we see this sort 1514 01:25:15.920 --> 01:25:25.720 of the vision and destructive, destructive attitudes in play, you know, 1515 01:25:26.359 --> 01:25:33.880 bring inspire, hope, create opportunity, bring people together, and understand 1516 01:25:34.000 --> 01:25:39.119 the first responsibility of local government is to make sure 1517 01:25:39.439 --> 01:25:41.039 that the people are safe. 1518 01:25:41.159 --> 01:25:44.159 Amen, Ken Blackwell, you know, and I've been struggling to 1519 01:25:44.279 --> 01:25:46.520 understand why it is the city leaders. And this is 1520 01:25:46.560 --> 01:25:49.000 something that Christopher smithm brings up regularly when he comes 1521 01:25:49.079 --> 01:25:52.439 up my program, which is the deafening silence from the 1522 01:25:52.479 --> 01:25:56.000 council members as well as the mayor about supporting out 1523 01:25:56.119 --> 01:25:59.479 loud and advocating working with the police, not against them. 1524 01:25:59.800 --> 01:26:02.279 That flies in the face of the whole police are terrible, 1525 01:26:02.359 --> 01:26:05.199 defund the police movement. So that's a very far left attitude. 1526 01:26:05.439 --> 01:26:07.800 But they don't say anything. And I think one of 1527 01:26:07.800 --> 01:26:10.479 the reasons is because they're trying to downplay the reality 1528 01:26:10.560 --> 01:26:13.199 of crime in downtown Cincinnati for the reasons you point out. 1529 01:26:13.399 --> 01:26:15.279 If you talk about crime, then people are going to 1530 01:26:15.319 --> 01:26:17.439 get the perception of there's crime, and people are not 1531 01:26:17.520 --> 01:26:19.520 going to want to move into or otherwise invest in 1532 01:26:19.560 --> 01:26:22.239 the city of Cincinnati. But that just ignores the fact 1533 01:26:22.279 --> 01:26:23.159 that the crime is there. 1534 01:26:23.640 --> 01:26:28.760 So stands yeah, and and and you make you try 1535 01:26:28.880 --> 01:26:29.880 to spin. 1536 01:26:31.279 --> 01:26:34.479 When when people can see the sort of division and 1537 01:26:34.640 --> 01:26:39.520 sort of mob action that we experienced this past weekend. Yeah, 1538 01:26:40.159 --> 01:26:46.399 that that just creates a frustration of people who have 1539 01:26:46.600 --> 01:26:48.439 a capability. 1540 01:26:47.880 --> 01:26:53.640 A movie, yes, sir, movie, movie or not considering. I 1541 01:26:53.720 --> 01:26:56.880 mean we've made national Actually, we had global headlines with this. 1542 01:26:57.000 --> 01:26:59.680 I mean I saw there's an article on there's violence 1543 01:27:00.000 --> 01:27:03.560 and the Hindu Times of all places, so Fox News headlines, 1544 01:27:03.600 --> 01:27:06.279 it's on CNN. Everybody's talking about it. You know, Dan Well, 1545 01:27:06.319 --> 01:27:08.680 Ken Blackwell that there's maybe a business or some person 1546 01:27:08.760 --> 01:27:11.520 out there that might have been considering Cincinnati as an 1547 01:27:11.560 --> 01:27:14.439 option for investment or to move and they looked at 1548 01:27:14.479 --> 01:27:17.039 that and it's like, no, I'm taking them off my list. 1549 01:27:18.119 --> 01:27:18.319 Yeah. 1550 01:27:19.359 --> 01:27:22.960 And right, I'm seventy seven years old. I've lived in 1551 01:27:23.119 --> 01:27:27.399 Cincinnati all my life. I've just I've been a homeowner, 1552 01:27:27.600 --> 01:27:32.520 a political leader, you know, you name it. But I 1553 01:27:32.960 --> 01:27:39.720 realize that people vote with their feet. We are highly mobile, 1554 01:27:40.239 --> 01:27:46.319 and what happens is that your city becomes poor and poor, 1555 01:27:46.560 --> 01:27:51.199 smaller and smaller, you know, And that's the challenge of 1556 01:27:51.359 --> 01:27:56.000 local leadership. And they cannot forget the capital seeks the 1557 01:27:56.159 --> 01:28:02.079 path of least resistance and greatest opportunity and capital. Who 1558 01:28:02.600 --> 01:28:03.880 hates crime? 1559 01:28:04.359 --> 01:28:07.000 Well, it's pause.

I understand you were as much of 1614 01:30:30.560 --> 01:30:33.560 a fan, perhaps as I am, of V. V. Ramaswami, 1615 01:30:35.159 --> 01:30:38.159 according to polling and everything else I can see. I've 1616 01:30:38.239 --> 01:30:40.640 talked to him many times. I've been impressed with him 1617 01:30:40.720 --> 01:30:43.920 since I interviewed him after he wrote Woke Incorporated. A 1618 01:30:44.159 --> 01:30:46.600 brilliant man he is. I think he's going to make 1619 01:30:46.600 --> 01:30:50.239 an outstanding governor. He seems to have great ideas your 1620 01:30:50.279 --> 01:30:51.359 comments on VV. 1621 01:30:53.119 --> 01:30:56.640 Let me tell you, I've watched since he was a 1622 01:30:56.800 --> 01:31:00.560 high schooler at Saint Xavier only at it that we 1623 01:31:00.640 --> 01:31:02.680 couldn't get him over to a university. 1624 01:31:03.319 --> 01:31:03.439 Uh. 1625 01:31:06.520 --> 01:31:10.760 Yeah, Uh, he will make a great governor. And his 1626 01:31:11.079 --> 01:31:14.279 his his not only his worldview, but his understanding of 1627 01:31:14.359 --> 01:31:18.800 the basics is is phenomenal. You know, he and I 1628 01:31:19.159 --> 01:31:23.119 have talked on occasion in the past. Uh, a basic 1629 01:31:23.359 --> 01:31:27.720 understanding about the economic situation uh in Ohio. 1630 01:31:28.279 --> 01:31:29.920 He he understands us. 1631 01:31:30.000 --> 01:31:32.600 I've preached for a long time that if you tax something, 1632 01:31:32.960 --> 01:31:36.760 you get less of it. If you, you know, subsidize something. 1633 01:31:36.560 --> 01:31:37.399 You get more of it. 1634 01:31:37.840 --> 01:31:41.560 The problem in America and and and the challenge in 1635 01:31:41.600 --> 01:31:46.319 Ohio today is that we're taxing work savings investment. Uh 1636 01:31:46.479 --> 01:31:50.479 and and as a consequence, Uh, he understands the challenge. 1637 01:31:50.640 --> 01:31:53.399 And I think he has a set of proposals that 1638 01:31:53.680 --> 01:31:58.640 we will unleash uh the talent in Ohio get us 1639 01:31:58.840 --> 01:32:02.199 back on a on a path for rapid growth. And 1640 01:32:02.399 --> 01:32:06.960 I've been up on his response, uh and his comments 1641 01:32:07.079 --> 01:32:11.439 on this sort of division and the sort of the 1642 01:32:11.640 --> 01:32:15.920 crime that he saw on the streets of Cincinnati and uh. 1643 01:32:16.359 --> 01:32:20.399 I think he's he's well positioned as a fundamental understanding 1644 01:32:21.359 --> 01:32:25.720 of how to put us on a accelerate track of 1645 01:32:26.600 --> 01:32:30.840 economic growth, prosperity, safety, uh and and and he has 1646 01:32:30.880 --> 01:32:35.239 a vision to to to make Ohio not just one 1647 01:32:35.279 --> 01:32:39.119 of the best states in the United States, but the 1648 01:32:39.319 --> 01:32:43.800 premier state. Uh and And I tell our buddy down 1649 01:32:43.880 --> 01:32:47.720 in Florida, my job, you know that's coming. 1650 01:32:48.760 --> 01:32:49.399 That's great. 1651 01:32:50.600 --> 01:32:53.640 One of the things I'm really excited about as a 1652 01:32:53.960 --> 01:32:57.600 magnet for business and industry from the four corners of 1653 01:32:57.640 --> 01:33:01.079 the world. We can make Ohio the lead power generator 1654 01:33:01.119 --> 01:33:04.119 by greasing the skids and moving forward with the concept 1655 01:33:04.159 --> 01:33:07.159 that I've been pushing for now for years, embracing the 1656 01:33:07.600 --> 01:33:12.520 small modular nuclear reactors. They're small, tiny footprint, don't generate 1657 01:33:12.600 --> 01:33:16.000 the ways they can power make create massive amounts of power. 1658 01:33:16.079 --> 01:33:18.319 If you build it, they will come. And he is 1659 01:33:18.560 --> 01:33:19.520 all about that. 1660 01:33:21.159 --> 01:33:23.880 Oh, he he really is. 1661 01:33:24.279 --> 01:33:28.600 And one of the things I just I shad again. 1662 01:33:28.720 --> 01:33:32.359 He has to he has to inspire hope uh and 1663 01:33:32.560 --> 01:33:34.840 and and and he's and he's good that, you know. 1664 01:33:34.960 --> 01:33:39.199 He he has to make people feel that no one 1665 01:33:39.600 --> 01:33:41.960 is too small of an entity. 1666 01:33:42.079 --> 01:33:46.199 To be part, not to be part of of of 1667 01:33:46.439 --> 01:33:52.319 this ohiw uh boom. Yeah, and and and so I. 1668 01:33:52.920 --> 01:33:55.880 Tell people you know who who might think, you know, 1669 01:33:56.199 --> 01:34:01.199 that they're too small or uh they can't have impact 1670 01:34:01.600 --> 01:34:04.479 because they are individual. I tell them all the time, Brian, 1671 01:34:04.680 --> 01:34:07.640 you know, if you think you're too small to be effective, 1672 01:34:07.880 --> 01:34:10.399 you've never been in the dark and dark room with 1673 01:34:10.479 --> 01:34:11.159 a mosquito. 1674 01:34:15.840 --> 01:34:16.279 That's good. 1675 01:34:17.560 --> 01:34:24.640 Yeah, that that sort of inspiration I think is important. 1676 01:34:25.119 --> 01:34:29.760 But again, it starts with having a vision of Ohio 1677 01:34:30.039 --> 01:34:33.439 being not one of the best, but the best. 1678 01:34:33.399 --> 01:34:36.159 The best, and that's what he is aspiring to bring 1679 01:34:36.319 --> 01:34:38.359 about for the state of Ohio. And you know, you 1680 01:34:38.479 --> 01:34:40.479 can't say enough about that man, at least as far 1681 01:34:40.520 --> 01:34:44.159 as you can't. You can't hear VVA speak and not 1682 01:34:44.319 --> 01:34:46.960 be enthused.

I'm so glad 1765 01:38:17.319 --> 01:38:20.520 to be here. And I'm on fire. You are on fire, yes, sir. 1766 01:38:20.640 --> 01:38:22.880 And that's what was so cool about what you were saying, 1767 01:38:23.000 --> 01:38:27.279 speaking truth to power, passionate and your reaction to the 1768 01:38:27.359 --> 01:38:29.359 violence in the city of Cincinnati, which it sounds, I mean, 1769 01:38:29.600 --> 01:38:32.039 it's almost as if you knew it was coming because 1770 01:38:32.079 --> 01:38:36.560 you posted a video on the twenty fourth criticizing the administration. 1771 01:38:36.880 --> 01:38:39.119 You were at Police Chief threes of Thigi and you 1772 01:38:39.239 --> 01:38:41.000 know all about it because you're a police officer for 1773 01:38:41.119 --> 01:38:44.039 that period of time. Share along you went after the 1774 01:38:44.119 --> 01:38:48.560 mayor elected officials demanding a change in administration because clearly 1775 01:38:48.640 --> 01:38:51.680 we're on the wrong path. And then one day later, 1776 01:38:52.239 --> 01:38:54.520 look what happens in downtown Cincinnati. So you had a 1777 01:38:54.600 --> 01:38:56.720 nice follow up to that one. So let my listeners 1778 01:38:56.760 --> 01:38:58.399 know where you are on all this andre. 1779 01:38:58.279 --> 01:39:05.640 Absolutely is discussed disgusting. Just listening to Chief Thiji's interview yesterday, 1780 01:39:06.039 --> 01:39:11.079 it was absolutely ridiculous. We are a nationwide joke right 1781 01:39:11.159 --> 01:39:15.479 now in Cincinnati, the issues of talking about you only 1782 01:39:15.680 --> 01:39:20.479 had two officers respond that was dispatched, that was in 1783 01:39:20.600 --> 01:39:23.800 the central business section. And she even said, over one 1784 01:39:23.880 --> 01:39:28.479 hundred thousand people and you're dispatching cars to a scene 1785 01:39:28.840 --> 01:39:32.279 where there's so many people and vehicles. But here here 1786 01:39:32.520 --> 01:39:36.279 we have around the country where people are getting ran over. 1787 01:39:36.640 --> 01:39:40.359 Why wasn't those streets just completely blocked off that there 1788 01:39:40.399 --> 01:39:44.319 were no vehicle traffic number one so the officers can 1789 01:39:44.359 --> 01:39:47.960 get there, and there was no officers on foot in 1790 01:39:48.079 --> 01:39:50.880 the area. Absolutely unacceptable. 1791 01:39:50.920 --> 01:39:53.600 It took us six minutes to get there, which you know, 1792 01:39:53.920 --> 01:39:55.600 in terms of response time, I don't know if that's 1793 01:39:55.640 --> 01:39:58.880 good or bad, but you're talking about a downtown CINCINNY 1794 01:39:58.960 --> 01:40:01.880 that's got three major events going on, and people don't 1795 01:40:01.920 --> 01:40:03.680 just pack up and go home at eleven pm when 1796 01:40:03.680 --> 01:40:05.600 the rock when the music stops, they head over the 1797 01:40:05.680 --> 01:40:07.600 door district and go into the bars. And so they're 1798 01:40:07.600 --> 01:40:09.000 going to be into the bars until the bars are 1799 01:40:09.000 --> 01:40:12.119 going to close. So you have obviously a lot of 1800 01:40:12.279 --> 01:40:14.920 people that are going to be pouring into that neighborhood. 1801 01:40:14.960 --> 01:40:16.720 You would expect it to be police all over, and 1802 01:40:16.800 --> 01:40:18.840 that's what you were advocating for on your on your 1803 01:40:18.840 --> 01:40:21.039 Facebook posts. How come there were police on the on 1804 01:40:21.119 --> 01:40:23.079 the corners of the street in an area where you knew, 1805 01:40:23.119 --> 01:40:24.760 damn well, there's going to be a whole bunch of people. 1806 01:40:25.439 --> 01:40:31.359 My point exactly, why didn't you have police on every corner, 1807 01:40:31.840 --> 01:40:36.800 saturated to tell people welcome to Cincinnati, wave at people. 1808 01:40:37.239 --> 01:40:42.319 But no, why because administration did not allocate the proper 1809 01:40:42.840 --> 01:40:47.119 units downtown to deactivate things. 1810 01:40:47.000 --> 01:40:49.640 Like this or just to prevent them from happening by 1811 01:40:49.640 --> 01:40:52.479 their mere presence. Absolutely, yeah, and that you know the 1812 01:40:52.720 --> 01:40:55.640 police presence is so critical. Now, respond to this, and 1813 01:40:55.680 --> 01:40:57.880 I'm not really playing devil's advocate because I'm in full 1814 01:40:57.920 --> 01:41:00.279 agreement with your perception at what should have gone down. 1815 01:41:00.560 --> 01:41:03.800 But her response, Police Chief Fiji's response might be, well, 1816 01:41:04.520 --> 01:41:08.439 we're understaffed. They only had three officers at that moment 1817 01:41:08.600 --> 01:41:10.479 in time, at three o'clock in the morning that were 1818 01:41:10.560 --> 01:41:14.800 even available to respond. That's a pretty sizable area. And 1819 01:41:15.000 --> 01:41:18.479 of course with all those people there, clearly three officers 1820 01:41:18.840 --> 01:41:21.000 ain't gonna cut it exactly. 1821 01:41:21.159 --> 01:41:24.000 So if you know you're gonna be understaffed prior to 1822 01:41:24.840 --> 01:41:29.279 then wouldn't you make the proper adjustments beforehand? We knew 1823 01:41:29.319 --> 01:41:32.279 a year out this event is coming to town, and 1824 01:41:32.399 --> 01:41:35.239 you see the things that are curring. But yet you 1825 01:41:35.520 --> 01:41:41.039 did not plan effectively and had no type of strategy. 1826 01:41:41.319 --> 01:41:45.600 So that should tell you once again leadership matters, and 1827 01:41:45.720 --> 01:41:47.880 in this case, leadership failed. 1828 01:41:48.079 --> 01:41:48.920 And what do you have? 1829 01:41:49.760 --> 01:41:52.920 Total chaos in the city of Cincinnati. I told them 1830 01:41:52.960 --> 01:41:56.399 before you must want got them city, And I've always 1831 01:41:56.439 --> 01:41:58.640 said on my post, who's next? 1832 01:41:59.319 --> 01:41:59.840 Who's next? 1833 01:42:00.760 --> 01:42:00.920 There? 1834 01:42:01.000 --> 01:42:03.079 But for the grace of God, go anybody that goes downtown. 1835 01:42:03.119 --> 01:42:06.279 And I know you had some really pointed comments and 1836 01:42:06.479 --> 01:42:10.079 warnings to my white friends out in the listening audience 1837 01:42:10.239 --> 01:42:13.479 about what they should prepare for and maybe shouldn't even 1838 01:42:13.520 --> 01:42:16.359 bother going downtown, because I think that's your choice as well. 1839 01:42:16.920 --> 01:42:17.319 He said. 1840 01:42:17.880 --> 01:42:19.880 Major events like that, You're not going to get anywhere 1841 01:42:19.920 --> 01:42:20.399 near them. 1842 01:42:20.720 --> 01:42:24.640 Absolutely not, absolutely not. We see what's going on even 1843 01:42:25.840 --> 01:42:30.039 locally and abroad nationwide, and if the police are not 1844 01:42:30.199 --> 01:42:33.920 setting things up for us to feel safe and secure, 1845 01:42:34.279 --> 01:42:37.880 and I walk into a situation and I see angry people, 1846 01:42:38.279 --> 01:42:41.000 I see situations happening, and I just want to come 1847 01:42:41.039 --> 01:42:43.960 out of an establishment and just walk down the street, 1848 01:42:44.079 --> 01:42:46.520 and I may have an altercation and the next thing 1849 01:42:46.560 --> 01:42:50.600 you know, me and my friends may get completely beat down. 1850 01:42:51.119 --> 01:42:54.479 And the narrative of being twisted, which is very interesting 1851 01:42:54.600 --> 01:42:58.079 that I've seen. If this was an entire all white 1852 01:42:58.199 --> 01:43:03.079 mob on a black person, it would be considered a hate. 1853 01:43:02.960 --> 01:43:05.760 Crime from the get go, from the get go. 1854 01:43:06.079 --> 01:43:09.600 But even Chief Thiji set there and said, this fight, 1855 01:43:10.680 --> 01:43:14.640 this fight, We do know who it is. Turn yourself in, no, 1856 01:43:15.119 --> 01:43:20.319 put these individuals on blast, name them by name, Let 1857 01:43:20.439 --> 01:43:24.239 the people in the community know this behavior is unacceptable. 1858 01:43:24.399 --> 01:43:27.680 So if it was actually disgusting to her, why are 1859 01:43:27.760 --> 01:43:31.960 you requesting they turn themselves in versus putting their picture 1860 01:43:32.479 --> 01:43:35.680 on TV and saying this is who it is and 1861 01:43:35.720 --> 01:43:36.600 we're coming to get you. 1862 01:43:37.199 --> 01:43:40.119 We'll bring back Andre Outstanding seven thirty six right now, 1863 01:43:40.119 --> 01:43:42.119 If you've got cares to these auxiations.

He pulls 1885 01:44:51.479 --> 01:44:52.920 literally no punches at all. 1886 01:44:53.279 --> 01:44:53.560 Andre. 1887 01:44:53.720 --> 01:44:55.600 You know, I apologize I didn't get a chance to 1888 01:44:55.640 --> 01:44:58.800 see your most recent post, but caption all in caps. 1889 01:44:58.960 --> 01:45:02.000 This makes me. City leaders calling in the Lincoln Ware 1890 01:45:02.079 --> 01:45:04.800 shows saying the white man got the action he deserved. Now, 1891 01:45:04.840 --> 01:45:07.439 I had heard that that some people said that this 1892 01:45:07.680 --> 01:45:11.600 was totally justifiable. And I don't know what led to 1893 01:45:11.720 --> 01:45:14.920 the ultimate melee and beat down of these people, but 1894 01:45:15.119 --> 01:45:17.000 I can't come up with a single action that could 1895 01:45:17.119 --> 01:45:21.520 justify that mob behavior. How could anybody suggest that that 1896 01:45:21.720 --> 01:45:23.680 man or the woman who got punched square in the 1897 01:45:23.720 --> 01:45:25.359 face deserved what they got. 1898 01:45:26.159 --> 01:45:32.720 Exactly, There is no justification, period, zero justification. And when 1899 01:45:32.760 --> 01:45:35.800 you look at that and the comments that were called 1900 01:45:35.840 --> 01:45:38.159 in into the lincoln Ware Show, and you can read 1901 01:45:38.239 --> 01:45:41.560 the comments and people saying, yeah, that's what he get. 1902 01:45:42.279 --> 01:45:44.319 You bring the action, you get the action. And we 1903 01:45:44.520 --> 01:45:50.359 had literally leaders like David Whitehead, the leader of the NAACP, 1904 01:45:50.640 --> 01:45:53.479 call in and it seemed as if he was being 1905 01:45:53.720 --> 01:45:59.039 motivated by the comments that were constantly going against Smitherman, 1906 01:45:59.279 --> 01:46:02.279 Colin Smith in a coon a sellout, and I'm sitting 1907 01:46:02.359 --> 01:46:06.279 there watching and I'm listening and I'm reading. I said, 1908 01:46:06.319 --> 01:46:10.800 this is disgusting that we have blacks that are saying 1909 01:46:11.079 --> 01:46:14.479 this is what you get. So that's why I also stated, 1910 01:46:14.920 --> 01:46:19.279 no wonder our young people are following suit, because if 1911 01:46:19.359 --> 01:46:23.960 our own leaders are saying this is how you handle business, 1912 01:46:24.319 --> 01:46:28.279 then don't say absolutely nothing to our children. 1913 01:46:28.880 --> 01:46:31.960 You know, that's a really, really good point. And Christopher's 1914 01:46:31.960 --> 01:46:33.880 been on that theme for a long time. It's where 1915 01:46:33.960 --> 01:46:38.760 are our city leaders advocating to support the police, to 1916 01:46:38.880 --> 01:46:43.680 support nonviolence, to you know, engage in a positive relationship 1917 01:46:43.720 --> 01:46:46.279 with the police for the betterment of the communities. And 1918 01:46:46.439 --> 01:46:49.680 I've heard time and time again the vast majority of blacks, 1919 01:46:49.720 --> 01:46:52.760 if you talk to them individually, they want safe streets. 1920 01:46:52.960 --> 01:46:55.119 They don't have a problem with the police. In fact, 1921 01:46:55.279 --> 01:46:58.000 as illustrated by over the weekend, there aren't enough around. 1922 01:46:58.159 --> 01:46:59.319 We need more. 1923 01:47:00.079 --> 01:47:04.039 But the loud voice gets the attention, the squeaky wheel 1924 01:47:04.079 --> 01:47:06.880 gets the grease, and sadly, you know, the squeaky wheels. 1925 01:47:06.880 --> 01:47:09.319 Perhaps the president, current president of the NAACP's part of 1926 01:47:09.319 --> 01:47:11.359 the problem. I don't know, but they're the ones that 1927 01:47:11.439 --> 01:47:14.600 people tend to listen to. And that sounds like what 1928 01:47:15.600 --> 01:47:19.640 representatives of the black community are advocating for. And yeah, 1929 01:47:19.680 --> 01:47:21.039 that's going to rub off on children. 1930 01:47:21.359 --> 01:47:28.239 Absolutely, absolutely think about this. Cheryl Long literally removed District five, 1931 01:47:28.680 --> 01:47:30.399 took it completely out of a community. 1932 01:47:30.880 --> 01:47:31.680 But yet the. 1933 01:47:31.800 --> 01:47:36.520 Mayor and the chief stand by and say safety is 1934 01:47:36.640 --> 01:47:41.199 our number one priority. And we see that Sarah Herringer, 1935 01:47:41.560 --> 01:47:44.760 she blew the rooftop off of a lot of issues 1936 01:47:45.199 --> 01:47:49.680 that the city was portraying and tested her own numbers 1937 01:47:49.760 --> 01:47:53.600 against theirs. And so if it's your top priority, and 1938 01:47:53.800 --> 01:47:55.960 now all of a sudden, you're saying, oh, we need 1939 01:47:56.159 --> 01:47:59.279 more police, but you took a police district out of 1940 01:47:59.359 --> 01:48:03.439 a community. Make it make sense, brother, Brian, please, I can't. 1941 01:48:04.039 --> 01:48:04.199 Yeah. 1942 01:48:04.239 --> 01:48:06.199 The only thing I can come up with, Andie is 1943 01:48:06.600 --> 01:48:10.319 they are so afraid of acknowledging that there's a crime 1944 01:48:10.439 --> 01:48:15.279 problem because it's bad press. It's gonna maybe make people considered. 1945 01:48:15.399 --> 01:48:18.000 I don't want to move to Cincinnati. But you, I mean, 1946 01:48:18.039 --> 01:48:20.119 you can't deny your I mean it's like, don't believe 1947 01:48:20.159 --> 01:48:22.520 you're lying eyes. People who live in the city know 1948 01:48:22.600 --> 01:48:26.199 there's a problem. I mean, the police know their problem 1949 01:48:26.520 --> 01:48:29.960 and the ignoring the problem, and I think it's really 1950 01:48:30.039 --> 01:48:32.279 probably driven by just the fact that we just don't 1951 01:48:32.279 --> 01:48:34.279 want to acknowledge it, to talk about it because it 1952 01:48:34.479 --> 01:48:37.159 just looks bad. Well, welcome to front page news across 1953 01:48:37.199 --> 01:48:40.239 the United States of America with what happened on Saturday morning. 1954 01:48:40.680 --> 01:48:46.960 Absolutely one thousand percent. And police officers are frustrated. Oh yeah, 1955 01:48:47.159 --> 01:48:50.119 they are extremely frustrated because I know for a fact 1956 01:48:50.199 --> 01:48:52.760 that they do go out here and do their job 1957 01:48:52.920 --> 01:48:57.319 and deal with a lot of issues and a deactivate 1958 01:48:57.399 --> 01:49:00.520 as much as they can. They really do. But I've 1959 01:49:00.560 --> 01:49:03.159 been an advocate to always say I'm not here to 1960 01:49:03.279 --> 01:49:06.359 take sides. I'm here to save lives, and if my 1961 01:49:06.479 --> 01:49:10.399 fellow officers are doing something they shouldn't be doing, I've 1962 01:49:10.520 --> 01:49:13.079 always wanted to be an advocate to say, look, this 1963 01:49:13.239 --> 01:49:15.760 is what's right, and this is what's wrong. But when 1964 01:49:15.800 --> 01:49:19.800 I see it wrong and I see a community constantly 1965 01:49:19.920 --> 01:49:23.000 going against his self, murders on the ride, black on 1966 01:49:23.239 --> 01:49:28.279 black crimes, and these same civil leaders have nothing to say, 1967 01:49:29.279 --> 01:49:34.479 absolutely nothing. That's disgusting because we both know that the 1968 01:49:34.720 --> 01:49:37.960 multiple murders that occur are with on our black youth 1969 01:49:38.399 --> 01:49:43.039 and the murders in Cincinnati and no one is taking accountability. 1970 01:49:43.479 --> 01:49:46.359 We'll bring back Andre for one more segment.

Chuck ingramon 1996 01:50:51.279 --> 01:50:53.880 fifty five kr Sea Deep Talk Station. 1997 01:50:55.239 --> 01:50:57.880 Seven forty seven. Here fifty five Parasevcalk Station, Bryan Towns 1998 01:50:57.880 --> 01:51:00.960 with Andre Ewing, retired police officer. Sure, and you're you're 1999 01:51:01.079 --> 01:51:03.800 like a community activist. You speak to the youth groups 2000 01:51:03.880 --> 01:51:06.800 and and and you know, I guess I'm just kind 2001 01:51:06.800 --> 01:51:09.880 of curious what you're doing in your your your in 2002 01:51:10.000 --> 01:51:11.800 the time you're not here in my studio talking to 2003 01:51:11.880 --> 01:51:12.520 my listeners. 2004 01:51:13.119 --> 01:51:13.279 Right. 2005 01:51:14.560 --> 01:51:17.079 Just did something with the Urban League. It was powerful. 2006 01:51:17.199 --> 01:51:21.079 Oh yeah, the Urban Champions, and just had a great 2007 01:51:22.439 --> 01:51:25.760 encounter with some young youth and trying to promote and 2008 01:51:25.920 --> 01:51:29.800 show them there's a different way to go about situations. 2009 01:51:29.840 --> 01:51:33.199 And it's interesting everything that we told them to do. 2010 01:51:34.119 --> 01:51:37.000 What they saw downtown was exactly the example. We said, 2011 01:51:37.119 --> 01:51:39.720 this is what happens if you run to a fight, 2012 01:51:40.159 --> 01:51:43.399 If you go to a fight, if you present yourself 2013 01:51:43.840 --> 01:51:47.720 and had speakers there telling them to turn the other 2014 01:51:47.800 --> 01:51:52.119 way and to make sure that everyone is safe, everyone, 2015 01:51:52.439 --> 01:51:52.880 not just some. 2016 01:51:53.159 --> 01:51:55.039 Well, I appreciate your speaking to the young people. They 2017 01:51:55.079 --> 01:51:59.479 certainly need a clear and convincing voice like yours. But 2018 01:52:00.039 --> 01:52:02.760 speaking of change, and I said to you off air, 2019 01:52:02.880 --> 01:52:05.159 I said, you know what, Andre, You and I both 2020 01:52:05.239 --> 01:52:07.479 know it. Come November, the residents of the city of 2021 01:52:07.560 --> 01:52:10.560 Cincinnati have an opportunity to vote. And you know, the 2022 01:52:10.640 --> 01:52:13.199 definition of stupidity is doing the same thing over and 2023 01:52:13.359 --> 01:52:15.960 over again and expecting a different result. But they're still 2024 01:52:16.000 --> 01:52:17.800 going to vote for the same clowns in office. And 2025 01:52:17.920 --> 01:52:20.239 you had advocated for a change in administration on your 2026 01:52:20.239 --> 01:52:22.119 one of your recent videos. What's your take on the 2027 01:52:22.199 --> 01:52:24.960 upcoming election in November? And do you think this is 2028 01:52:25.039 --> 01:52:27.159 an opportunity for change in the city of Cincinnati. 2029 01:52:27.560 --> 01:52:31.039 It's a perfect opportunity for change. It's interesting because if 2030 01:52:31.079 --> 01:52:34.399 this was a professional team and they went oh for twelve, 2031 01:52:34.760 --> 01:52:37.840 what do you do we want to go oh and 2032 01:52:37.880 --> 01:52:41.560 twelve again? We talk about the Bengals. If they would 2033 01:52:41.560 --> 01:52:45.439 have had the proper defense in place, guess what might 2034 01:52:45.520 --> 01:52:48.159 be talking about Super Bowl champs with the offense that 2035 01:52:48.279 --> 01:52:51.600 they had. But guess what they decided to get more 2036 01:52:52.199 --> 01:52:55.800 power impactful people on defense. So let's deal with the 2037 01:52:55.880 --> 01:52:59.680 truth of the matter. We are in a position to 2038 01:52:59.800 --> 01:53:03.439 make change. I would love to see the debate. Let 2039 01:53:03.520 --> 01:53:07.119 them go at it one on one, debate this thing 2040 01:53:07.520 --> 01:53:11.840 go right at the situation, and let's see who exactly 2041 01:53:12.199 --> 01:53:16.520 would be best for the position of mayor. Because at 2042 01:53:16.640 --> 01:53:20.239 this point, what we have seen and if you want 2043 01:53:20.399 --> 01:53:25.079 this to continue at this state, we are going to 2044 01:53:25.239 --> 01:53:29.279 be in a world of mess. And this is exactly 2045 01:53:29.359 --> 01:53:32.439 what we see and it should start from the top down. 2046 01:53:32.800 --> 01:53:36.840 And I've said it before, Teresa Thiji needs to go Yeah, 2047 01:53:37.640 --> 01:53:41.399 just go out. There's so many powerful candidates out there, 2048 01:53:41.960 --> 01:53:45.199 so many powerful candidates out there. She needs to resign, 2049 01:53:45.960 --> 01:53:50.439 leave at this moment and allow us to go out 2050 01:53:50.680 --> 01:53:54.239 and see if there are other individuals more qualified, more 2051 01:53:54.319 --> 01:53:59.720 experienced and understand city dynamics and are willing to work 2052 01:53:59.760 --> 01:54:01.000 with thee. 2053 01:54:00.680 --> 01:54:03.600 Well this police chief, Thesi, and I don't presume it, 2054 01:54:03.680 --> 01:54:06.920 but I presume that you do regularly speak with members 2055 01:54:06.960 --> 01:54:09.720 of law enforcement who are still actively with the police department. 2056 01:54:09.760 --> 01:54:11.760 I mean you got friends, right, you hear you talk 2057 01:54:11.840 --> 01:54:14.840 to them? How's it is there a sense that they 2058 01:54:14.880 --> 01:54:17.600 have any respect for leadership within the department. 2059 01:54:18.119 --> 01:54:20.840 Zero leadership and that's a shame. And I had this 2060 01:54:21.000 --> 01:54:25.039 on one of my posts is where Sheryl Long was 2061 01:54:25.159 --> 01:54:31.960 going into uh several police districts with actually Scottie Johnson 2062 01:54:32.079 --> 01:54:36.039 and asked the police officers, who would you like to 2063 01:54:36.159 --> 01:54:41.159 see a chief? And at the time, the majority had 2064 01:54:41.239 --> 01:54:44.760 set back and said, well, Lisa Davis. Colonel Lisa Davis 2065 01:54:45.079 --> 01:54:47.960 said we would. We think she would be a great advocate. 2066 01:54:48.039 --> 01:54:52.319 She's a community person, she understands. And guess what, she 2067 01:54:52.640 --> 01:54:58.039 still picked Teresa Thiji. Now that's interesting because people did 2068 01:54:58.359 --> 01:55:02.600 not officers did not want her in the morale and 2069 01:55:02.720 --> 01:55:06.399 what you see and people being motivated started from the 2070 01:55:06.560 --> 01:55:10.720 top down and what Chryl Long decided to do without 2071 01:55:11.119 --> 01:55:15.920 listening to officers and the proper way to select the 2072 01:55:16.079 --> 01:55:19.039 chief of our city. And from these results, you are 2073 01:55:19.159 --> 01:55:25.000 seeing us getting blasted by individuals on podcasts across the 2074 01:55:25.199 --> 01:55:28.319 country talking about our city and how terrible it. 2075 01:55:28.439 --> 01:55:31.239 Is, so low morale. And then I'm sure we of 2076 01:55:31.319 --> 01:55:33.399 course know about the low morale within the police department 2077 01:55:33.439 --> 01:55:37.159 because of the criminal justice system generally speaking, why bother 2078 01:55:37.439 --> 01:55:40.279 arresting the kid for breaking curfew when there is going 2079 01:55:40.359 --> 01:55:42.399 to be nothing at all, zero done to. 2080 01:55:42.399 --> 01:55:47.359 Them, Absolutely zero, nothing will happen. Usually, if we even 2081 01:55:47.439 --> 01:55:51.319 take someone to twenty twenty at juvenile, we're calling their 2082 01:55:51.399 --> 01:55:54.920 parents on the way, make sure you come get your child. 2083 01:55:55.319 --> 01:55:57.319 As soon as they come in, they're walking straight out. 2084 01:55:57.439 --> 01:56:00.960 And these kids understand the system that they can take 2085 01:56:01.039 --> 01:56:03.800 it to the whole next level and then say, well, 2086 01:56:03.840 --> 01:56:06.279 when I turn eighteen, I'll just get my record expongs. 2087 01:56:06.920 --> 01:56:12.199 Absolutely ridiculous. Gun laws need to be increased, that we're 2088 01:56:12.239 --> 01:56:14.159 not playing if you get caught with a gun, we're 2089 01:56:14.199 --> 01:56:17.439 not playing games with you. We're gonna hold you accountable. 2090 01:56:17.600 --> 01:56:21.039 You will do some time, You will do some time. 2091 01:56:21.119 --> 01:56:24.079 So these judges need to step it up and stop 2092 01:56:24.159 --> 01:56:24.760 playing games. 2093 01:56:24.800 --> 01:56:27.439 Yeah, that's always very puzzling to me, because you know, 2094 01:56:27.600 --> 01:56:30.640 if after Purvol had his way, he would take away 2095 01:56:30.800 --> 01:56:33.600 everyone's guns. And that's not your position, because you had 2096 01:56:33.680 --> 01:56:37.880 advocated on one of your posts that we should be armed. 2097 01:56:37.960 --> 01:56:41.279 You know, you go to the rains train, learn how 2098 01:56:41.319 --> 01:56:43.000 to properly use it. You know, you know, if you 2099 01:56:43.000 --> 01:56:46.479 as long as you're lawfully able to carry a firearm, 2100 01:56:46.920 --> 01:56:49.359 you probably should because that way you can defend yourself. 2101 01:56:50.319 --> 01:56:54.319 And that's just the society we live in today. But 2102 01:56:54.560 --> 01:56:57.600 now what is the perception of defending yourself. That's why 2103 01:56:57.680 --> 01:57:02.399 I said, when you were downtown in this circumstance, and 2104 01:57:02.520 --> 01:57:07.600 if somebody had a firearm and started to just let off, 2105 01:57:08.039 --> 01:57:11.399 we would have at least twenty to twenty five people 2106 01:57:11.960 --> 01:57:18.119 dead and more critically injured based on this situation while 2107 01:57:18.199 --> 01:57:20.359 people were armed, and I bet you there were people 2108 01:57:20.439 --> 01:57:22.800 that were armed that maybe just didn't pull their weapon 2109 01:57:22.880 --> 01:57:26.439 at the time. But during that beat down, would someone 2110 01:57:26.520 --> 01:57:29.640 had been justified to pull in and try to save 2111 01:57:30.399 --> 01:57:33.399 the gentleman who was getting mobbed against, who was getting 2112 01:57:33.479 --> 01:57:38.039 attacked and kicked brutally and savagely. He could be a 2113 01:57:38.199 --> 01:57:41.600 damage for life, brain damage he was in. The woman 2114 01:57:42.399 --> 01:57:45.840 savagely was struck. So if somebody would have put out 2115 01:57:45.880 --> 01:57:48.119 a gun and started firing, would they have been wrong? 2116 01:57:48.680 --> 01:57:50.319 No, they wouldn't you know what I'm thinking of? The 2117 01:57:50.359 --> 01:57:53.760 guy who saved maybe multiple lives a that Walmart up 2118 01:57:53.880 --> 01:57:56.920 was Milwaukee. The guy who was stabbing, he stabbed a 2119 01:57:56.960 --> 01:57:59.960 loving people and long comes a marine with a fire 2120 01:58:00.880 --> 01:58:03.399 that didn't put the guy down, but stopped the violence 2121 01:58:03.439 --> 01:58:07.159 from happening. If you have reasonable and eminent apprehension of 2122 01:58:07.319 --> 01:58:10.840 grievous bodily harm that guy was suffering from grievous bodily 2123 01:58:10.880 --> 01:58:13.640 harm at the time, or you have a legitimate, reasonable 2124 01:58:13.680 --> 01:58:16.960 fear for your own life, you're allowed to use deadly force. 2125 01:58:17.079 --> 01:58:19.800 So and I talked with the FOP president just the 2126 01:58:19.840 --> 01:58:22.359 other day about that. He agreed with me completely. Absolutely 2127 01:58:22.520 --> 01:58:25.279 use of a firearm order those circumstances would have been justified. 2128 01:58:25.640 --> 01:58:26.159 Absolutely. 2129 01:58:26.159 --> 01:58:28.359 When people are freaked out, they think some left wing 2130 01:58:28.560 --> 01:58:31.479 prosecutor is going to go after them for defending their 2131 01:58:31.520 --> 01:58:33.720 lives or defending the lives of others. So there creates 2132 01:58:33.800 --> 01:58:37.000 that reluctance in society because they think they're going to 2133 01:58:37.000 --> 01:58:39.920 be the ones prosecuted, not the person given the beatdown. 2134 01:58:40.680 --> 01:58:43.720 Now, this is interesting. I want to ask you some brother, Brian. 2135 01:58:44.560 --> 01:58:48.479 When there's a UFC cage fight, they have a ref 2136 01:58:49.000 --> 01:58:52.319 right there in the middle. Once this ref sees it's 2137 01:58:52.399 --> 01:58:56.800 out of control and that person may even remotely lose consciously, 2138 01:58:56.960 --> 01:58:57.520 they step in. 2139 01:58:58.119 --> 01:58:58.399 That's it. 2140 01:58:58.760 --> 01:59:02.800 It's over. You don't continue to go because why they 2141 01:59:03.039 --> 01:59:06.880 understand the issues that continue to happen. Well, guess what, 2142 01:59:07.039 --> 01:59:10.119 there was no referee down here, and we continue to 2143 01:59:10.199 --> 01:59:14.039 see beat down, another's hiding a face, another kicking a face, 2144 01:59:14.279 --> 01:59:19.960 another jab in a faith. It was consistent with beyond 2145 01:59:20.119 --> 01:59:24.039 almost aggravated assault, and they should be prosecuted to the 2146 01:59:24.159 --> 01:59:24.840 highest level. 2147 01:59:25.479 --> 01:59:28.760 Andre Ewing, you know what, someday I want to be 2148 01:59:28.920 --> 01:59:32.319 interviewing you as candidate for office. You run for council 2149 01:59:32.560 --> 01:59:35.640 or maybe run for mayor or something like that.

As I always start out the segment 2184 02:00:52.279 --> 02:00:54.399 B R E I T B A R T Breitbart 2185 02:00:54.479 --> 02:00:56.760 dot Com. It's time for the inside scoop. Welcome back, 2186 02:00:56.800 --> 02:00:59.079 Colin Madine. It's always a pleasure talker with you, my friend. 2187 02:01:00.319 --> 02:01:01.000 Happy to be here. 2188 02:01:01.439 --> 02:01:03.000 Well, you know, we're in trouble here in the city 2189 02:01:03.039 --> 02:01:05.000 of Cincinnati, and when we make national headlines for what 2190 02:01:05.079 --> 02:01:08.560 happened over the weekend, including the brawl, be the beatdown, 2191 02:01:08.560 --> 02:01:11.239 I should more properly refer to it. It's covered on 2192 02:01:11.319 --> 02:01:14.600 Breitbart as well. I mean, I'm not sure if you 2193 02:01:14.680 --> 02:01:16.520 know a whole lot about Colin, but I did see 2194 02:01:16.520 --> 02:01:20.119 that Breitbart covered the situation as well. What's your take 2195 02:01:20.159 --> 02:01:22.000 on our problem here in the city of Cincinnati. 2196 02:01:23.560 --> 02:01:25.760 Well, I'm absolutely aware of it. You know, first of all, 2197 02:01:25.800 --> 02:01:29.760 I'm a Columbus native, and so I'd be in Cincinnati 2198 02:01:29.840 --> 02:01:32.520 anytime I wanted to see decent sports teams as opposed 2199 02:01:32.520 --> 02:01:32.960 to Cleveland. 2200 02:01:33.079 --> 02:01:34.840 Right, It's great, So. 2201 02:01:35.399 --> 02:01:38.600 You know, I did watch it carefully. My first reaction 2202 02:01:39.199 --> 02:01:41.039 is something you've already touched on. A lot of the 2203 02:01:41.119 --> 02:01:44.000 media is covering this as a brawl or a fight. 2204 02:01:44.199 --> 02:01:47.760 All I saw was a beatdown, you know, people getting 2205 02:01:47.880 --> 02:01:52.640 a mudhole stumped in them. Basically, what I really keyed 2206 02:01:52.680 --> 02:01:56.720 in on as tech editor is your police chief went 2207 02:01:56.760 --> 02:02:02.079 out there blaming social media and the media or this, 2208 02:02:02.399 --> 02:02:06.039 you know, spreading virally and this being the national news 2209 02:02:06.079 --> 02:02:09.600 about Cincinnati as opposed to something good, right, which we 2210 02:02:09.640 --> 02:02:14.560 would all hope for, but usually isn't the case. My 2211 02:02:14.800 --> 02:02:17.880 view is when you look at incidents that go viral, 2212 02:02:19.119 --> 02:02:21.920 it can go two ways. There are incidents that are 2213 02:02:22.079 --> 02:02:26.880 caused by social media and made worse, and then there's influence. 2214 02:02:26.920 --> 02:02:30.439 There's incidents that happen and then go viral because they 2215 02:02:30.520 --> 02:02:33.560 have all the right ingredients to go viral. So I 2216 02:02:33.720 --> 02:02:36.800 don't view this as something caused by social media. When 2217 02:02:36.840 --> 02:02:39.199 I think of things caused by social media, I'm thinking 2218 02:02:39.279 --> 02:02:42.960 of TikTok making teenagers do stupid things, whether it's eating 2219 02:02:43.039 --> 02:02:47.600 tide pods or destroying their schools, yep, to get viral. 2220 02:02:48.359 --> 02:02:49.560 That's not what happened here. 2221 02:02:49.680 --> 02:02:53.640 What happened here is this terrible incident, probably alcohol fuels, 2222 02:02:54.840 --> 02:02:59.359 and it much like the Coldplay concerts CEO that wasn't 2223 02:02:59.399 --> 02:03:02.760 caused by social media, but it had all the ingredients 2224 02:03:03.239 --> 02:03:06.920 to then go viral. You know, there's a lot of 2225 02:03:07.000 --> 02:03:09.039 people and the reason they go to social. 2226 02:03:08.880 --> 02:03:12.520 Media is to see knockouts. And despite whatever you want to. 2227 02:03:12.520 --> 02:03:15.840 Call it, brawl, attack, beat down, you know had these 2228 02:03:15.960 --> 02:03:20.479 brutal knockdowns, right, and yes, you have a crowd at 2229 02:03:20.560 --> 02:03:21.840 last I saw the crowd. 2230 02:03:21.720 --> 02:03:24.239 Is estimated at one hundred people that was standing around 2231 02:03:24.319 --> 02:03:24.760 filming it. 2232 02:03:25.439 --> 02:03:30.119 Many of those people hope to have the video that 2233 02:03:30.239 --> 02:03:33.199 goes viral because they think they're famous. They want that 2234 02:03:33.319 --> 02:03:37.439 attention for one minute or ten minutes or fifteen minutes 2235 02:03:37.479 --> 02:03:39.960 of fame like Americans used to hope for. Yeah, but 2236 02:03:40.399 --> 02:03:43.079 you know, I disagree with your police chief out there 2237 02:03:43.159 --> 02:03:46.479 saying it's the fault of social media and it's the 2238 02:03:46.640 --> 02:03:49.520 fault of the media for covering it. You have a 2239 02:03:49.640 --> 02:03:52.680 much deeper problem that's being portrayed in that video. 2240 02:03:53.520 --> 02:03:56.560 Without question, I think, you know, it becomes a social 2241 02:03:56.600 --> 02:04:00.720 media phenomenon, most notably these these these knockdowns. He's you know, 2242 02:04:00.920 --> 02:04:04.960 random indiscriminate punching of people that really even when there's 2243 02:04:05.000 --> 02:04:07.680 no altercation. We even had one of those that same 2244 02:04:09.039 --> 02:04:12.640 roughly the same period of time on Saturday morning. It's 2245 02:04:12.880 --> 02:04:15.399 you can hear the guy that's recording the video, it's 2246 02:04:15.439 --> 02:04:18.439 sort of just waiting for this knockdown to happen. It 2247 02:04:18.520 --> 02:04:20.319 was a setup. He was ready to record it. When 2248 02:04:20.359 --> 02:04:23.600 it happened, and out of nowhere, this guy just Cole Cox, 2249 02:04:23.680 --> 02:04:26.560 this innocent person who is just standing there and he 2250 02:04:26.600 --> 02:04:28.279 gets knocked to the ground and then the guy drags 2251 02:04:28.359 --> 02:04:30.720 him out in the middle of the street. People can't 2252 02:04:30.840 --> 02:04:33.359 believe their own eyes and they see that, and that's 2253 02:04:33.399 --> 02:04:36.359 why it becomes clickbait. It's like, oh my god, this 2254 02:04:36.560 --> 02:04:39.600 is like societal breakdown kind of stuff. I can't believe 2255 02:04:39.640 --> 02:04:42.079 what I'm watching, and then somebody else wants to do it, 2256 02:04:42.159 --> 02:04:43.920 so they become the next viral sensation. 2257 02:04:46.640 --> 02:04:51.359 Absolutely, and you know there's other people out there saying, 2258 02:04:51.520 --> 02:04:54.079 you know, the race aspect is why this went viral, 2259 02:04:54.960 --> 02:04:58.439 that's not the reality we live in. Either the fight 2260 02:04:58.960 --> 02:05:02.600 and the attack is it really gets people, exactly to 2261 02:05:02.640 --> 02:05:04.960 your point, to just click on things, because you know, 2262 02:05:06.199 --> 02:05:09.159 we see these types of videos going viral all the time, 2263 02:05:09.239 --> 02:05:12.960 and it can be you know, it can be all 2264 02:05:13.319 --> 02:05:15.279 it can be black on black. We see that with 2265 02:05:15.399 --> 02:05:19.159 Carnival Cruises, who had to basically go through a marketing 2266 02:05:19.239 --> 02:05:21.920 crisis because all these videos of fights on cruise ships 2267 02:05:23.319 --> 02:05:26.520 certainly certainly large groups of white people do the same thing. 2268 02:05:26.600 --> 02:05:30.279 It's not, you know, from my perspective, it's that's not why. 2269 02:05:30.199 --> 02:05:30.840 I win viral? 2270 02:05:31.039 --> 02:05:31.920 Whyo win viral? 2271 02:05:32.199 --> 02:05:35.840 Was you had this large group of people. I think 2272 02:05:35.880 --> 02:05:37.920 there was one nine to one one call according to 2273 02:05:38.000 --> 02:05:43.279 what exactly? Because you get that it's essentially a mini riot, 2274 02:05:43.560 --> 02:05:47.640 one might say, right, it's the behavior that humans is 2275 02:05:48.560 --> 02:05:50.880 not I'm going to try to stop this because there'll 2276 02:05:50.880 --> 02:05:54.239 be the next person beat down. Instead, it's I'm going 2277 02:05:54.319 --> 02:05:57.880 to try to get famous off this, because whether you're 2278 02:05:57.880 --> 02:06:00.600 a social media expert or not, every one has some 2279 02:06:00.800 --> 02:06:02.840 concept of what's going to go viral these days. 2280 02:06:03.039 --> 02:06:05.680 Yeah, you're right, and you know it's it's something that 2281 02:06:05.800 --> 02:06:08.239 I just can't get my head around, Colin, because Okay, 2282 02:06:08.279 --> 02:06:10.760 I'm going to be sixty in September. Maybe it's my age, 2283 02:06:11.279 --> 02:06:14.279 but my first reaction is never to grab my phone 2284 02:06:14.479 --> 02:06:16.439 and start taking pictures of something. I mean, even at 2285 02:06:16.520 --> 02:06:20.159 family events, birthday parties. I just don't think about it, 2286 02:06:20.680 --> 02:06:22.840 and so I wouldn't have. I don't think I would 2287 02:06:22.880 --> 02:06:24.439 have pulled my phone out if I was downtown when 2288 02:06:24.479 --> 02:06:27.039 that was going on to record it. It just doesn't 2289 02:06:27.119 --> 02:06:29.920 enter my mind. But that's not modern society, and that's 2290 02:06:29.960 --> 02:06:34.239 certainly not the default position for seemingly most people these days. 2291 02:06:36.079 --> 02:06:38.680 Well, Brian, in your defense, it's not just an age thing. 2292 02:06:38.800 --> 02:06:43.600 Yes, Certainly older people, you know, as you get into 2293 02:06:43.640 --> 02:06:48.800 the boomer generation, they don't have that instinct. I'm a 2294 02:06:48.920 --> 02:06:53.199 tech editor gen X in my forties and I struggle 2295 02:06:53.279 --> 02:06:56.479 with that too. We have a fox who runs around 2296 02:06:56.479 --> 02:06:58.680 our neighborhood all day. I saw them and I had 2297 02:06:58.720 --> 02:07:01.560 to like comically funk with my phone right for the 2298 02:07:01.680 --> 02:07:06.000 right camera. But there's you know, millions upon millions. 2299 02:07:05.640 --> 02:07:08.319 Of people who are like quick draw artists, right, like. 2300 02:07:08.359 --> 02:07:13.479 Gunslingers with their phone and they're filming Hollywood style angles 2301 02:07:13.520 --> 02:07:17.520 and lighting on the fly because that and some of 2302 02:07:17.560 --> 02:07:19.920 that is because you know, we have whole generations that 2303 02:07:19.960 --> 02:07:22.800 are digital natives, people who were born. 2304 02:07:22.880 --> 02:07:24.520 With social media essentially. 2305 02:07:24.560 --> 02:07:27.960 Yeah, or in the you know, in YouTube, and part 2306 02:07:28.000 --> 02:07:33.039 of it is, you know, it's that struggle of we 2307 02:07:33.159 --> 02:07:36.840 have people who just they're not thinking the way we 2308 02:07:36.960 --> 02:07:41.319 would associate with traditional American thinking and values, which is 2309 02:07:41.840 --> 02:07:45.279 if they see something like that and that's not fisticuffs, right, 2310 02:07:45.479 --> 02:07:48.720 you have people getting knocked out, possibly brain damage. I 2311 02:07:48.760 --> 02:07:51.600 don't know the condition of those poor people this morning, 2312 02:07:52.159 --> 02:07:55.159 but you know that's not a fight, that's a that's 2313 02:07:55.159 --> 02:07:57.319 a life threatening situation without question. 2314 02:07:57.439 --> 02:07:59.680 Well, you mentioned thinking and critical thinking I think has 2315 02:07:59.680 --> 02:08:02.359 been important aspect of my life and thank god I 2316 02:08:02.479 --> 02:08:04.720 have critical thinking. It served me well in my practice 2317 02:08:04.760 --> 02:08:07.720 of law. But that's the environment I was raised in, 2318 02:08:07.880 --> 02:08:11.760 you know, the Socratic method. But pivoting over to artificial intelligence, 2319 02:08:11.840 --> 02:08:15.640 I see the Teachers Union are teaming up with Microsoft 2320 02:08:15.880 --> 02:08:18.960 and others thanks to a twenty three million dollar investment 2321 02:08:19.000 --> 02:08:23.479 by Microsoft, Open AI and Anthropic to incorporate artificial intelligence 2322 02:08:23.560 --> 02:08:26.920 into the classroom. And my concern about that is the 2323 02:08:27.000 --> 02:08:29.680 default position for most is I'm not going to engage 2324 02:08:29.720 --> 02:08:32.319 my own thought processes. I'm just going to turn to chat, 2325 02:08:32.439 --> 02:08:36.000 GPT or some other AI inspired to get the answer 2326 02:08:36.079 --> 02:08:38.119 to whatever question that's presented in front of me and 2327 02:08:38.279 --> 02:08:41.520 just regurgitate something without thinking about it. This is a 2328 02:08:41.640 --> 02:08:44.399 dangerous step, I believe, Colin. What's your take on this direction? 2329 02:08:45.880 --> 02:08:48.319 It is a dangerous step because what you just said, Brian, 2330 02:08:48.520 --> 02:08:49.960 once again, you're kind of ahead. 2331 02:08:49.760 --> 02:08:50.239 Of the curve. 2332 02:08:51.359 --> 02:08:54.399 It's not just conjecture, It's not just g These people 2333 02:08:54.439 --> 02:08:58.880 aren't thinking. MIT has done an actual study and in 2334 02:08:59.560 --> 02:09:03.000 the short version of their resulted chet GPT wrotes your brain. 2335 02:09:03.720 --> 02:09:07.359 They do brain studies, and people's brains are not firing 2336 02:09:07.479 --> 02:09:10.159 in the same way when they go to a tool 2337 02:09:10.600 --> 02:09:11.359 and get an answer. 2338 02:09:12.800 --> 02:09:15.159 So, you know, the thing that I. 2339 02:09:15.199 --> 02:09:18.479 Find very curious about that deal where teachers and teachers 2340 02:09:18.560 --> 02:09:21.560 unions want to incorporate the AI into the classroom is 2341 02:09:23.359 --> 02:09:27.399 for you know, decades, you could talk to the most 2342 02:09:27.560 --> 02:09:30.479 ardent leftist teacher and they would have a very similar 2343 02:09:30.520 --> 02:09:34.800 opinion of Wikipedia that I do because Wikipedia is, you know, 2344 02:09:35.000 --> 02:09:38.960 a horror show. It's filled with biased, insane, crazy opinions 2345 02:09:39.000 --> 02:09:42.119 from the furthest left people. But teachers hated it because 2346 02:09:42.359 --> 02:09:45.720 students would go to Wikipedia a copy and paste and 2347 02:09:45.880 --> 02:09:48.359 turn it in as their research homework. They would say, 2348 02:09:48.399 --> 02:09:50.319 you didn't do your work, you know, how dare you 2349 02:09:50.439 --> 02:09:53.920 go to Wikipedia. Those same teachers today are saying, go 2350 02:09:54.039 --> 02:09:56.479 to chech gpt and start, you know, and get some 2351 02:09:56.600 --> 02:09:57.319 answers from them. 2352 02:09:57.800 --> 02:09:59.239 It's the exact same problem. 2353 02:09:59.479 --> 02:10:02.680 You're not learning anything as someone who works day in 2354 02:10:02.800 --> 02:10:06.960 and day out with with writing. The startling thing is 2355 02:10:07.079 --> 02:10:10.720 when people use chet GPT or any AI tool to 2356 02:10:11.000 --> 02:10:15.239 generate some written words, they almost never read them. We 2357 02:10:15.439 --> 02:10:19.560 know that because people will publish things or write letters 2358 02:10:20.039 --> 02:10:22.760 and they have like horrible mistakes in them or it 2359 02:10:22.880 --> 02:10:25.760 does this was written by chat GPT. They don't even 2360 02:10:25.840 --> 02:10:29.520 bother to read it to remove that colin. 2361 02:10:29.800 --> 02:10:32.439 Yeah, this is a topic that is so near and 2362 02:10:32.479 --> 02:10:34.800 dear to my heart because there have been any number 2363 02:10:34.840 --> 02:10:39.079 of articles written about idiot lawyers who rely on chat GPT, 2364 02:10:39.279 --> 02:10:43.079 which whole cloth makes up case law that does not exist. 2365 02:10:43.560 --> 02:10:45.760 They don't go bother and check their work to see 2366 02:10:45.840 --> 02:10:48.319 if there actually is the case there they just recited 2367 02:10:48.359 --> 02:10:52.720 and presented to the court. I mean, talk about malpractice 2368 02:10:53.159 --> 02:10:54.600 that Yeah, I love. 2369 02:10:54.520 --> 02:10:58.279 Covering that at Brighte Bartech. And you know you're a lawyer. 2370 02:10:58.720 --> 02:11:02.439 I'm not a lawyer, but you know, no lawyer. 2371 02:11:02.279 --> 02:11:04.800 Wants to make a judge really angry, right, I mean 2372 02:11:04.880 --> 02:11:07.520 that's rule number one. Can you imagine how angry the 2373 02:11:07.640 --> 02:11:10.439 judges when they realize and this is not one case 2374 02:11:10.520 --> 02:11:14.159 that's happened many times Anthropics, which is an AI giant, 2375 02:11:14.840 --> 02:11:18.000 their own lawyer fell for this where they, you know, 2376 02:11:18.960 --> 02:11:23.239 filed things with a judge full of fake case citations. 2377 02:11:23.520 --> 02:11:26.720 So it's brutal, and but that's that's what's happening. So 2378 02:11:27.319 --> 02:11:29.640 you know, for all the parents and grandparents out there, 2379 02:11:31.079 --> 02:11:34.680 you should punish your kids for using AI because literally 2380 02:11:35.000 --> 02:11:36.920 they're not going to think, they're not going to learn, 2381 02:11:38.359 --> 02:11:41.520 and they're going to publish wrong information. 2382 02:11:41.680 --> 02:11:45.119 Yeah, you talk about and even if the information is accurate, 2383 02:11:45.279 --> 02:11:49.840 the concept of creating a sentence on your own, it's 2384 02:11:49.880 --> 02:11:52.279 going to be a lost art. It's going to be 2385 02:11:52.359 --> 02:11:55.840 done for you, you know, the using verbs correctly, announced 2386 02:11:55.880 --> 02:11:58.520 correctly and understanding how to construct this sentence is just 2387 02:11:59.039 --> 02:12:00.920 that does it for you. I mean there's just no 2388 02:12:01.119 --> 02:12:03.359 thought process involved, and I find that it's frightening. And 2389 02:12:03.399 --> 02:12:05.439 then the other component of this is and a couple 2390 02:12:05.520 --> 02:12:08.640 of corollary stories you have on Breitbart b R E 2391 02:12:08.800 --> 02:12:10.880 I T b A r T dot com, book market, 2392 02:12:11.239 --> 02:12:13.600 we got this guy in New York that used artificial 2393 02:12:13.680 --> 02:12:16.760 intelligence to build bombs and he planned on detonating Manhattan. 2394 02:12:17.159 --> 02:12:20.680 And another article you guys posted about chat GPT gave 2395 02:12:20.760 --> 02:12:26.159 instructions on worshiping molac with blood sacrifices and encouraged somebody 2396 02:12:26.239 --> 02:12:29.920 to cut their wrists with sterile or very clean razor blade. 2397 02:12:30.119 --> 02:12:32.119 This stuff is downright dangerous. 2398 02:12:34.199 --> 02:12:39.119 It's dangerous, Brian, and you know the problem is it 2399 02:12:39.279 --> 02:12:43.920 leads people down rabbit holes. There's a term that's been 2400 02:12:44.000 --> 02:12:48.199 coined called check GPT induced psychosis because people. 2401 02:12:48.720 --> 02:12:50.359 Kind of go crazy. 2402 02:12:51.600 --> 02:12:56.399 AI has this very dangerous trend of always telling you 2403 02:12:56.520 --> 02:13:00.960 you're right, always telling you your a genius, and when 2404 02:13:01.079 --> 02:13:05.079 you start to respond, you know, in an engaged manner 2405 02:13:05.159 --> 02:13:07.600 on a particular topic, it just feeds you more and more. 2406 02:13:08.159 --> 02:13:10.880 So to your point, you know, this guy wanted to 2407 02:13:10.920 --> 02:13:12.039 build bombs. 2408 02:13:12.720 --> 02:13:16.800 And AI tools taught him better bombs to build his quote, 2409 02:13:16.920 --> 02:13:19.199 he told the cops, this is way easier than buying 2410 02:13:19.279 --> 02:13:21.560 gunpowder to make bombs, because it told me just some 2411 02:13:21.680 --> 02:13:25.119 household chemicals. Like he was thrilled because it helped them 2412 02:13:25.359 --> 02:13:30.840 make this plan. Luckily, one accidentally went off and scared him, 2413 02:13:30.960 --> 02:13:32.960 so he ended up turning himself in. But you know, 2414 02:13:33.600 --> 02:13:37.079 whether it's worshiping the devil, which is the other case 2415 02:13:37.119 --> 02:13:40.319 you talked about, or you know, we had an article 2416 02:13:40.359 --> 02:13:44.680 a couple of weeks ago, just some guy. He's autistic, 2417 02:13:44.800 --> 02:13:46.199 you know, so he has some challenges. 2418 02:13:46.800 --> 02:13:48.119 He thought he has. 2419 02:13:49.479 --> 02:13:54.560 Scientific breakthrough on time travel, chats APT contends him. He's correct, 2420 02:13:54.640 --> 02:13:55.640 he's the next Einstein. 2421 02:13:56.159 --> 02:13:56.319 You know. 2422 02:13:56.800 --> 02:13:59.960 It sent him down this whole warm hole. And it's 2423 02:14:00.359 --> 02:14:04.800 the mental health effects are almost as Dad is, like 2424 02:14:04.920 --> 02:14:07.760 the false information that in lack of thinking. 2425 02:14:08.479 --> 02:14:10.600 Everyone wants a pat on the back, and everyone wants 2426 02:14:10.600 --> 02:14:12.560 to be encouraged and told that they're right. And when 2427 02:14:12.600 --> 02:14:15.279 you can steer someone down a dangerous path because they 2428 02:14:15.319 --> 02:14:17.439 happen to be on it already, it's just going to 2429 02:14:17.520 --> 02:14:20.560 make a bad situation worse.

I mean we talked about four 2532 02:19:14.079 --> 02:19:16.479 or five different subject matters. But boy, I guess I 2533 02:19:16.559 --> 02:19:19.319 really stepped in it when I had comments about Israel 2534 02:19:19.360 --> 02:19:22.840 and no expert on you know, Israel, It's history or 2535 02:19:22.840 --> 02:19:25.079 anything else. Just I'm just aware of what's in the 2536 02:19:25.159 --> 02:19:28.200 news of late. But apparently that that was what hit 2537 02:19:28.280 --> 02:19:30.040 a nerve. But I guess I'm used to that. You 2538 02:19:30.200 --> 02:19:32.440 always hit a nerve with someone when you're talking about 2539 02:19:32.479 --> 02:19:35.799 the deteriorating situation there between Israel, Gaza, and of course 2540 02:19:35.840 --> 02:19:39.120 the terrorist organization. Yeah, and of course I have this 2541 02:19:39.360 --> 02:19:41.040 when you and I talk about Israel. 2542 02:19:41.079 --> 02:19:42.520 I think you've told me You've had some of the 2543 02:19:42.959 --> 02:19:44.959 folks not lacking what I've said either, So I guess 2544 02:19:45.000 --> 02:19:46.360 you just can't win on that. 2545 02:19:46.639 --> 02:19:48.000 You can't. It is what it is. 2546 02:19:48.159 --> 02:19:50.479 That's the fact it really is. And people have some 2547 02:19:50.799 --> 02:19:53.559 very very very deep seated feelings about that. But before 2548 02:19:53.559 --> 02:19:55.680 we talk about that, let's get the latest on rushing 2549 02:19:55.840 --> 02:19:59.559 Ukraine another day. Know the same old, same old, it seems, 2550 02:19:59.559 --> 02:20:01.440 you know. Don Trump it seems like he's pulling the 2551 02:20:01.440 --> 02:20:04.159 plug on even trying anymore. Tries to sit down with 2552 02:20:04.239 --> 02:20:06.760 Vladimir Putin, tries to get Putin to negotiate. But as 2553 02:20:06.799 --> 02:20:09.680 you and I have observed and talked about regularly, Vladimir 2554 02:20:09.719 --> 02:20:12.399 Putin's got his list of demands, he's not wavering from them. 2555 02:20:12.479 --> 02:20:14.920 And so you end a discussion with nobody conceding to 2556 02:20:15.040 --> 02:20:17.639 anything that he wants. You're not going to get a 2557 02:20:17.680 --> 02:20:20.479 settlement and then the bombs and the drone start flying again. 2558 02:20:21.680 --> 02:20:24.120 Well yeah, and you know what, I honestly find the 2559 02:20:24.159 --> 02:20:26.959 whole episode puzzling. I mean, let's go back to when 2560 02:20:27.000 --> 02:20:29.440 the fifty day deadline was set. I thought that was 2561 02:20:29.559 --> 02:20:33.120 kind of odd because I didn't understand what was fifty 2562 02:20:33.200 --> 02:20:35.879 days tied to. Why would you say, all right, we've 2563 02:20:35.920 --> 02:20:39.760 already gone six months to the Trump administration, Why another 2564 02:20:39.799 --> 02:20:41.719 fifty days? And why would that be any different? And 2565 02:20:41.799 --> 02:20:44.319 then why did it go from fifty to now ten 2566 02:20:44.639 --> 02:20:48.280 or a dozen something like that. But still we had 2567 02:20:48.319 --> 02:20:50.120 the same thing lumin out that we did when that 2568 02:20:50.200 --> 02:20:52.680 first fifty day deadline was set. What is going to 2569 02:20:52.719 --> 02:20:55.840 happen if he tries to impose those secondary sanctions on 2570 02:20:56.000 --> 02:20:58.159 Russia and the primer issues, not what they do to Russia, 2571 02:20:58.200 --> 02:21:01.520 because Russia is basically sanctioned proof ready, it's the secondary 2572 02:21:01.559 --> 02:21:04.680 sections that they slap the terrafs on China, India, Brazil 2573 02:21:05.239 --> 02:21:08.479 and anyone else. They say, who does business with Russia 2574 02:21:08.719 --> 02:21:13.600 with uh pydriccarbons, et cetera. I don't know that you're 2575 02:21:13.680 --> 02:21:15.360 going to succeed if you're going to try to get 2576 02:21:15.399 --> 02:21:18.639 our you know, our friend India to say don't buy 2577 02:21:18.760 --> 02:21:20.879 Russian oil or it's gonna you know, get it from 2578 02:21:20.920 --> 02:21:22.799 somewhere else Where else are you going to get it? 2579 02:21:23.680 --> 02:21:25.280 And then, of course we have the issue with China. 2580 02:21:25.319 --> 02:21:28.079 We're we're still in a trade issue with them. And 2581 02:21:28.159 --> 02:21:30.319 if you slap another one hundred percent, I mean that 2582 02:21:30.479 --> 02:21:32.440 it hurt us last time when we had one hundred 2583 02:21:32.440 --> 02:21:35.040 and forty five percent. So I just don't see how 2584 02:21:35.079 --> 02:21:38.040 this is going to help our case much less hurt Russia. 2585 02:21:38.239 --> 02:21:40.600 Yeah, I'm with you on that. As as we enter 2586 02:21:40.760 --> 02:21:44.360 into more thoughtful and I guess deep trade negotiations on 2587 02:21:44.440 --> 02:21:47.959 tariffs with China, in our negotiation process with them process 2588 02:21:48.000 --> 02:21:50.000 with them, these secondary tariffs, I think this is going 2589 02:21:50.040 --> 02:21:52.319 to blow that up. I would imagine China's not going 2590 02:21:52.399 --> 02:21:54.000 to stand for it in a discussion. 2591 02:21:55.120 --> 02:21:58.040 Well, I mean, because you're you've spent so many months 2592 02:21:58.079 --> 02:22:01.440 and so much you know, political capital trying to come 2593 02:22:01.520 --> 02:22:04.920 up to some kind of a mutually acceptable financial deal 2594 02:22:04.959 --> 02:22:08.520 and apparently there are making some progress. Yeah, but you 2595 02:22:08.680 --> 02:22:10.959 task something like this on top, it'll literally blow up 2596 02:22:10.959 --> 02:22:13.600 everything you've been doing and set us back, you know, 2597 02:22:13.760 --> 02:22:15.680 several months, and that's just not going to be good. 2598 02:22:15.719 --> 02:22:18.639 For American consumers or business. Well, let me ask you 2599 02:22:18.680 --> 02:22:21.520 get your reaction to this, because my first reaction was 2600 02:22:22.319 --> 02:22:25.680 this is childish. When we talk about, and we have before, 2601 02:22:25.879 --> 02:22:29.200 when Ukraine wants to strike and strikes targets within Russia, 2602 02:22:29.559 --> 02:22:31.239 you and I both scratch our head and wonder to 2603 02:22:31.399 --> 02:22:33.639 what end. It's not like they're going to make advances 2604 02:22:33.680 --> 02:22:36.000 and take over Russian territory. They don't have enough troops 2605 02:22:36.040 --> 02:22:38.239 to keep the territory if they took it. But when 2606 02:22:38.280 --> 02:22:41.440 they choose targets to bomb, last time I checked, it 2607 02:22:41.559 --> 02:22:45.079 was resort towns. There's not even a military objective. If 2608 02:22:45.120 --> 02:22:47.799 you're bombing a beat where people go to vacation, what 2609 02:22:48.040 --> 02:22:51.120 possible benefit could that be? And of course then the 2610 02:22:51.200 --> 02:22:56.280 Russians retaliate by bombing the Ukraine resort towns not military 2611 02:22:56.319 --> 02:22:59.440 objectives either, those are civilian targets. So what's the point 2612 02:22:59.479 --> 02:23:02.719 of this? Actually, again, it seems like children playing war games. 2613 02:23:03.600 --> 02:23:05.639 Well, and part of the problem for the Ukraine side 2614 02:23:05.760 --> 02:23:09.840 is that they don't have They have limited number of 2615 02:23:09.840 --> 02:23:13.360 offensive missiles and drones, so they have some that can 2616 02:23:13.399 --> 02:23:16.319 get in, but not that many. Russia, on the other hand, 2617 02:23:16.399 --> 02:23:19.639 has more than enough air defense missiles. Unlike the Ukraine 2618 02:23:19.680 --> 02:23:22.719 side and the Western side, who are in a significant 2619 02:23:22.799 --> 02:23:26.120 dearth of those interceptor missiles, Russia has no shortage, but 2620 02:23:26.239 --> 02:23:28.280 they have them. They do have a huge country, so 2621 02:23:28.399 --> 02:23:30.520 they have to pick and chose where they put them. 2622 02:23:30.799 --> 02:23:33.559 So on the militarily important targets they have a lot 2623 02:23:33.600 --> 02:23:35.680 of air defense, so Ukraine doesn't want to waste its 2624 02:23:35.680 --> 02:23:37.719 missiles where they don't even get you know, they don't 2625 02:23:37.719 --> 02:23:40.959 even have video of burning buildings in Russia, so they 2626 02:23:41.000 --> 02:23:44.120 go places where there aren't air defenses or they're not 2627 02:23:44.319 --> 02:23:46.319 very many, and so they can get the video. Because 2628 02:23:46.360 --> 02:23:50.120 this is all about just having impressions and media outlets. 2629 02:23:50.159 --> 02:23:52.520 I mean, that's just the truth of it. They want 2630 02:23:52.559 --> 02:23:55.680 the video footage to show that they're doing something. There 2631 02:23:55.760 --> 02:23:59.000 is no military path, so it's not an issue that well, 2632 02:23:59.040 --> 02:24:02.319 this won't help the front because nothing will, which of 2633 02:24:02.360 --> 02:24:05.559 course exposes the absurdity of continuing to fight a ward. 2634 02:24:05.440 --> 02:24:10.719 You can't win, no question about it. And this week 2635 02:24:10.799 --> 02:24:12.600 after week after week, we keep coming up with the 2636 02:24:12.639 --> 02:24:15.440 same conclusions, Daniel Davis, and we don't have the I 2637 02:24:15.719 --> 02:24:17.479 think one of the things we learned from COVID is 2638 02:24:17.760 --> 02:24:19.840 we need to start making our own stuff and not 2639 02:24:19.959 --> 02:24:23.399 being so reliant on China. This is a moment of 2640 02:24:23.479 --> 02:24:26.719 clarity for our US military because you know the world 2641 02:24:26.840 --> 02:24:29.760 is clamoring for our weapons and asking for patriots and 2642 02:24:29.799 --> 02:24:31.879 wanting this, and that we don't even have enough of 2643 02:24:31.959 --> 02:24:34.319 our own You mentioned many times on this program. We 2644 02:24:34.360 --> 02:24:36.319 talked about it last week. We can only make six 2645 02:24:36.399 --> 02:24:40.559 hundred patriot missiles a year. I mean, I'm sorry. The 2646 02:24:40.920 --> 02:24:43.680 demand is much greater than the supply, and we have 2647 02:24:43.760 --> 02:24:47.239 an obligation to our our own people to protect our 2648 02:24:47.319 --> 02:24:50.559 people from threats abroad and domestically, and for that you 2649 02:24:50.680 --> 02:24:53.600 need a stockpile of weapons, and apparently we don't have enough. 2650 02:24:54.760 --> 02:24:54.959 Yeah. 2651 02:24:55.079 --> 02:24:57.399 I mean that's you said, it's a moment of clarity. 2652 02:24:57.680 --> 02:25:00.319 I would say it should be a moment of carity, 2653 02:25:00.399 --> 02:25:04.440 but it doesn't seem to be because I mean, what 2654 02:25:04.680 --> 02:25:07.120 was it more than a year ago? Is when we 2655 02:25:07.280 --> 02:25:09.719 expanded I got maybe two years ago we expanded our 2656 02:25:09.760 --> 02:25:12.280 capacity because it was five hundred missiles pier at the 2657 02:25:12.360 --> 02:25:14.840 outset of the war. Now is up to around six hundred. 2658 02:25:14.879 --> 02:25:17.319 But I mean, unless I miss something, I haven't seen 2659 02:25:17.440 --> 02:25:21.399 anybody say all right, we have this emergency contract here, 2660 02:25:21.520 --> 02:25:24.040 We're gonna triple it or something to that effect. You know, 2661 02:25:24.280 --> 02:25:26.239 we go way above what it is now that you 2662 02:25:26.360 --> 02:25:29.600 see how many interceptions it takes to sustain combat. 2663 02:25:29.879 --> 02:25:31.280 Clearly we don't have enough. 2664 02:25:31.319 --> 02:25:34.680 And by the way, the last credible information I've forgotten 2665 02:25:34.719 --> 02:25:36.879 from somebody who has access to the inside of the Pentagon, 2666 02:25:37.280 --> 02:25:40.920 it'll take about five years for us to repay replace 2667 02:25:41.319 --> 02:25:44.639 our own stock piles. And that number doesn't even start 2668 02:25:44.719 --> 02:25:47.879 five years until we stop giving everything that comes off 2669 02:25:47.920 --> 02:25:51.040 the Foundation to somebody else right now, to you know, 2670 02:25:51.159 --> 02:25:53.200 to whether it's to Israel or the Ukraine. 2671 02:25:53.559 --> 02:25:56.559 So we need to do something. So you say clarity, 2672 02:25:56.600 --> 02:25:59.959 but I don't see that that clarity has turned into paulicy. 2673 02:26:00.879 --> 02:26:03.600 It's okay, the European Union's gonna buy seven hundred and 2674 02:26:03.639 --> 02:26:06.959 fifty billion dollars worth of military hardware from domestic military 2675 02:26:07.000 --> 02:26:13.920 hardware manufacturers, thus ensuring the longevity of the military industrial complex. Yeah, 2676 02:26:14.159 --> 02:26:15.159 and you know, I see that. 2677 02:26:15.559 --> 02:26:19.120 Certainly from an American perspective, that's a big number. 2678 02:26:19.159 --> 02:26:21.399 And then investing six hundred. 2679 02:26:21.200 --> 02:26:23.600 Billion dollars in our energy all this, I mean, all 2680 02:26:23.680 --> 02:26:26.680 that is really good, but I mean you still have 2681 02:26:26.879 --> 02:26:29.799 that bottleneck there. It matters how much you can produce 2682 02:26:29.920 --> 02:26:32.159 and how fast. So a lot of dollars are being 2683 02:26:32.200 --> 02:26:34.479 thrown around, but you don't have the capacity to do 2684 02:26:34.639 --> 02:26:37.559 anything bigger. You just have the ability for the status 2685 02:26:37.639 --> 02:26:40.719 quo to continue to perpetuate for the military industrial complex. 2686 02:26:40.920 --> 02:26:43.159 But that doesn't do a whole lot for our national security. 2687 02:26:43.280 --> 02:26:45.959 All right, Daniel Davis, let's walk down that dangerous road 2688 02:26:46.000 --> 02:26:49.559 and talk about Israel, Gaza and Iran. Now, obviously you 2689 02:26:49.639 --> 02:26:52.000 and I, I think the whole world can agree there 2690 02:26:52.200 --> 02:26:55.760 is a massive humanitarian crisis going on Gaza. There are 2691 02:26:55.879 --> 02:27:00.360 people literally starving, and I think the one of the 2692 02:27:00.399 --> 02:27:01.879 things I stepped in the other day was about this 2693 02:27:02.040 --> 02:27:04.680 getting aid into gods and getting food to people who 2694 02:27:04.760 --> 02:27:08.319 obviously need it. You know, the two sides every story. 2695 02:27:08.319 --> 02:27:10.399 You got Israel and maybe they're a blamed. You got 2696 02:27:10.479 --> 02:27:13.559 the Hamas terrorists maybe preventing the aid from getting into people. 2697 02:27:13.600 --> 02:27:16.559 But as soon as aide shows up, it's like any 2698 02:27:16.639 --> 02:27:20.479 group of starving people, it just turns absolutely chaotic. I know, 2699 02:27:20.600 --> 02:27:23.719 I saw a massive crowd storming one of the aid trucks, 2700 02:27:24.079 --> 02:27:27.840 and the UN obviously seems to me to be always 2701 02:27:27.879 --> 02:27:31.000 seems to me to be a pointless exercise incapable of 2702 02:27:31.120 --> 02:27:34.159 really providing any benefit anywhere. But they can't even seem 2703 02:27:34.159 --> 02:27:36.520 to resolve the situation. How are we going to How 2704 02:27:36.559 --> 02:27:38.040 can we just get food in there? 2705 02:27:38.959 --> 02:27:42.760 Yeah, that's the central problem right now. The problem with 2706 02:27:42.840 --> 02:27:45.479 the UN is they have no power. They can only 2707 02:27:45.600 --> 02:27:47.399 have influence and they only try to say something. But 2708 02:27:47.520 --> 02:27:51.319 that requires primarily Israel on the ground, because they're the 2709 02:27:51.440 --> 02:27:54.879 only ones that actually have power over the situation. And 2710 02:27:55.159 --> 02:27:57.799 just in a form of context for people to understand 2711 02:27:57.840 --> 02:28:01.319 why we're in this starvation situation. Israel decided they didn't 2712 02:28:01.479 --> 02:28:04.639 like the UN program that was feeding people undraw it's called, 2713 02:28:05.360 --> 02:28:07.040 and so they shut that down and then they formed 2714 02:28:07.079 --> 02:28:08.840 this new one, and of course they had shut it 2715 02:28:08.920 --> 02:28:12.600 all from March up until just very recently. Now then 2716 02:28:12.680 --> 02:28:16.079 they have four food designation points where they can have it. 2717 02:28:16.159 --> 02:28:18.559 That's why you see this chaos here, because the entire 2718 02:28:18.639 --> 02:28:21.719 gauze strip has to swarm, you know, torment on four points. 2719 02:28:21.799 --> 02:28:25.239 They had four hundred before that, and so it's a 2720 02:28:25.319 --> 02:28:29.159 lot easier to distribute food more orderly when you have 2721 02:28:29.360 --> 02:28:30.520 multiple places. 2722 02:28:30.200 --> 02:28:32.440 Where and routine food coming in. 2723 02:28:32.840 --> 02:28:35.719 But unfortunately Israel has restricted it to four and the 2724 02:28:35.840 --> 02:28:39.280 number of trucks is about one, I'm sorry, a fifth 2725 02:28:39.799 --> 02:28:42.879 what is needed for just the basic sustenance airgo. You 2726 02:28:43.000 --> 02:28:45.959 have people starving to death because there's not enough food 2727 02:28:45.959 --> 02:28:49.440 getting into the population. And look, whatever you want to 2728 02:28:49.440 --> 02:28:51.559 say about anything the policies or who's right or wrong, 2729 02:28:51.959 --> 02:28:54.319 Israel has the power over the food. And right now 2730 02:28:54.399 --> 02:28:57.280 they are not releasing, they're not opening the gates, and 2731 02:28:57.319 --> 02:28:59.040 they're not letting the rest of the trucks get in. 2732 02:28:59.239 --> 02:29:00.799 And we see what the result is. 2733 02:29:00.799 --> 02:29:01.280 On the ground. 2734 02:29:01.440 --> 02:29:03.680 And I have not looked for, nor have I read, 2735 02:29:03.719 --> 02:29:06.639 an explanation for why it went for that approach. I 2736 02:29:06.760 --> 02:29:09.760 presume on some measure Israel wants to manage the distribution 2737 02:29:09.879 --> 02:29:11.239 of food to keep it out of the hands of 2738 02:29:11.319 --> 02:29:14.360 Hamas and get it to the people who actually are starving. 2739 02:29:14.600 --> 02:29:17.760 But that Hamas is quite often commandeering the food supplies. 2740 02:29:19.200 --> 02:29:22.879 It's more food supplies, more trucks, more distribution centers. It 2741 02:29:22.959 --> 02:29:26.159 seems to me might still be managed by Israel if 2742 02:29:26.200 --> 02:29:28.360 they broaden the effort. But there is that threat of 2743 02:29:28.399 --> 02:29:32.079 Hamas and that concern about Hamas taking the supplies from 2744 02:29:32.120 --> 02:29:33.600 the people they purport to represent. 2745 02:29:34.399 --> 02:29:37.479 Well, but the reality is you're not doing any of that, 2746 02:29:37.639 --> 02:29:39.879 you're not preventing even the way they're doing it now, 2747 02:29:39.920 --> 02:29:42.239 it's not preventing food forgetting to Hamas. They have no 2748 02:29:42.399 --> 02:29:46.399 idea who's Hamas and who's just Palestinian. So by saying 2749 02:29:46.479 --> 02:29:48.120 that's what they're trying to do, what they're doing is 2750 02:29:48.239 --> 02:29:51.520 starving other people. You're not going to prevent that. You 2751 02:29:51.600 --> 02:29:54.600 can't mean the Hamas is Palestine, I mean they are 2752 02:29:54.719 --> 02:29:57.159 part of it. So you can't distinguish where the food 2753 02:29:57.200 --> 02:30:00.559 goes because you Israel has no control what's where over 2754 02:30:00.760 --> 02:30:03.079 where that food goes in those four distribution points. Once 2755 02:30:03.120 --> 02:30:04.959 it goes in there, they don't know where it goes, 2756 02:30:05.399 --> 02:30:08.399 whether it's four or four hundred. So that's not an 2757 02:30:08.399 --> 02:30:12.559 attainable objective because it can't be met. But this is 2758 02:30:12.680 --> 02:30:15.959 just not a military solvable question. And look, at some 2759 02:30:16.040 --> 02:30:18.799 point you're just gonna have to say either Israel is 2760 02:30:18.840 --> 02:30:22.040 going to literally starve everyone to death or they're going 2761 02:30:22.079 --> 02:30:23.719 to have to open the gates. And they're coming under 2762 02:30:23.719 --> 02:30:28.040 a lot more pressure. And I personally found that reprehensible 2763 02:30:28.159 --> 02:30:30.079 that that's they're using starvation as a tool. 2764 02:30:30.120 --> 02:30:34.440 It's yeah, Well, and the idea of using civilian captives 2765 02:30:34.479 --> 02:30:36.920 as a tool. I find that in humanitary from a 2766 02:30:37.000 --> 02:30:39.879 humanitarian inspective and an ethical perspective, pretty awful too. But 2767 02:30:41.360 --> 02:30:45.239 what's the downside risk of just allowing opening the gates 2768 02:30:45.280 --> 02:30:47.639 and allowing food in. We're not talking about military or 2769 02:30:47.680 --> 02:30:50.239 anything like that, just letting the food in and letting 2770 02:30:50.280 --> 02:30:50.959 it go where it may. 2771 02:30:51.799 --> 02:30:54.239 Listen, Brian, we got to be honest and especially and 2772 02:30:54.319 --> 02:30:57.239 I'm not talking secret stuff here. I'm talking absolute open 2773 02:30:57.479 --> 02:31:01.719 discussion within his senior Israeli position and on Israeli media. 2774 02:31:02.280 --> 02:31:05.639 They want the Palestinians out. They don't want to open 2775 02:31:05.719 --> 02:31:08.600 the gates and let the food in. That would now 2776 02:31:08.719 --> 02:31:11.200 then remove the pressure to get them. I think it's 2777 02:31:11.280 --> 02:31:14.040 pretty clear from evidence that what they want is to 2778 02:31:14.200 --> 02:31:18.319 compel or coerce other regional countries, whether that's in Africa. 2779 02:31:18.360 --> 02:31:21.879 There's been some talk there or in other Arab countries 2780 02:31:22.239 --> 02:31:25.000 that they want them to see how bad this is 2781 02:31:25.079 --> 02:31:25.479 and say. 2782 02:31:25.319 --> 02:31:26.840 Are will just alleviate the suffering. 2783 02:31:26.920 --> 02:31:29.440 Let them come here, Let you know, five hundred thousand 2784 02:31:29.479 --> 02:31:32.360 come here or something like that, or go anywhere, because 2785 02:31:32.399 --> 02:31:35.079 they want them out. So there are many in Israel 2786 02:31:35.239 --> 02:31:38.360 who don't want to solve that problem because they want 2787 02:31:38.399 --> 02:31:40.799 to keep the pressure on that could possibly get them out. 2788 02:31:40.959 --> 02:31:45.000 And that's just the uncomfortable truth. So they wanted to part. 2789 02:31:45.040 --> 02:31:47.200 They wanted to be a big as an empty parking lot. 2790 02:31:48.159 --> 02:31:50.719 That is what they want. They have a plan right now. 2791 02:31:51.000 --> 02:31:52.559 It was out there just last week. 2792 02:31:52.920 --> 02:31:59.399 There's many discussing openly the reoccupation of Gaza to Israeli people, 2793 02:31:59.520 --> 02:32:02.319 meaning they have to first get the current occupants out. 2794 02:32:03.760 --> 02:32:06.360 Complicated world we live in. I always love talking with 2795 02:32:06.520 --> 02:32:08.920 you about it, which we could solve the problems of 2796 02:32:08.959 --> 02:32:10.360 the world. But then again, you and I wouldn't have 2797 02:32:10.399 --> 02:32:13.120 anything to talk about every Tuesday at eight thirty Daniel Davis, 2798 02:32:13.360 --> 02:32:13.920 I would. 2799 02:32:13.760 --> 02:32:15.680 Love it if we didn't have any we could talk 2800 02:32:15.719 --> 02:32:17.840 about sports or ill seasons coming up. 2801 02:32:17.879 --> 02:32:20.680 I'd rather do that and have that problem solved. I 2802 02:32:21.239 --> 02:32:22.840 tell you what, I have said that so many times 2803 02:32:22.879 --> 02:32:24.840 over the years. If all the problems of the world solved, 2804 02:32:24.920 --> 02:32:27.280 I wouldn't have anything to talk about. That's fine. I'll 2805 02:32:27.319 --> 02:32:30.680 find something else to do for a living. Daniel Davis 2806 02:32:30.719 --> 02:32:33.079 Deep Dive find him online. You'll enjoy the podcast and 2807 02:32:33.159 --> 02:32:35.440 the conversations he has throughout the week, and I certainly 2808 02:32:35.440 --> 02:32:37.520 appreciate you let me on your show. Last week was 2809 02:32:37.559 --> 02:32:38.639 a fun conversation, sir. 2810 02:32:39.360 --> 02:32:40.879 It was a pleasure.

That's just before you get 2836 02:33:44.040 --> 02:33:46.959 to the Ragan Highway. Traffic backs to Red Bank for 2837 02:33:47.040 --> 02:33:51.280 an extra fifteen minutes.

Ken Blackwell on that 2846 02:34:17.079 --> 02:34:19.959 same incident, of course, the beatdown that those two people, well, 2847 02:34:19.959 --> 02:34:22.719 actually it's more than two. There are other videos floating 2848 02:34:22.719 --> 02:34:26.319 around about violence and the knockout game appears to be 2849 02:34:26.479 --> 02:34:30.440 what's at play here where you start recording knowing full 2850 02:34:30.520 --> 02:34:32.559 well that your buddy's going to walk up and out 2851 02:34:32.559 --> 02:34:36.000 of nowhere deck somebody and knock them out. Unconscious and then, 2852 02:34:36.040 --> 02:34:39.120 of course in the one illustration, drag them into the street. 2853 02:34:41.159 --> 02:34:45.520 Just brutal, vicious, animal like behavior. Anyway, Ken Blackwell on 2854 02:34:45.680 --> 02:34:48.360 that we also heard his comments about I am so 2855 02:34:48.520 --> 02:34:51.319 excited about the campaign of v Vake Ramas swiming for 2856 02:34:51.360 --> 02:34:53.079 hearing the government over state of Ohio and sounds to 2857 02:34:53.079 --> 02:34:55.520 me like Ken Blackwell's equally excited about him being our 2858 02:34:55.639 --> 02:35:00.959 next governor. Andre Ewing thoroughly impressed by Andre's posting on Facebook. 2859 02:35:01.079 --> 02:35:04.239 I suggest you check him out a n d Ari 2860 02:35:04.479 --> 02:35:08.239 Andre Ewing Ewig. You don't have to be a friend 2861 02:35:08.280 --> 02:35:10.399 with him on Facebook to see his rants, and they 2862 02:35:10.479 --> 02:35:14.559 are well. He just does not pull any punches demanding 2863 02:35:14.600 --> 02:35:17.840 a change in administration. He thinks police chief Thiji should resign. 2864 02:35:18.399 --> 02:35:20.559 Police didn't want her in the first place. He thinks 2865 02:35:20.639 --> 02:35:23.040 Cheryl Lung should resign because she's the one that put 2866 02:35:23.079 --> 02:35:26.159 her in that position over the objections of many of 2867 02:35:26.200 --> 02:35:29.360 the officers. So listen to the podcast at fifty five 2868 02:35:29.399 --> 02:35:31.799 KC dot com and check him out on Facebook. Of course, 2869 02:35:31.840 --> 02:35:34.920 the Inside Scoop with Colin Maydine about artificial intelligence and 2870 02:35:35.760 --> 02:35:38.840 his comments on Bright Bartch reporting on the Brawlin Cincinnati 2871 02:35:38.959 --> 02:35:43.719 and why it went viral. Interesting in the student observations 2872 02:35:43.719 --> 02:35:47.239 from Colin and speaking of Facebook, a Signal ninety nine, 2873 02:35:47.319 --> 02:35:50.479 apparently a retired police officer, kind of remains anonymous but 2874 02:35:50.600 --> 02:35:53.520 has some really interesting posts and is widely followed by 2875 02:35:53.559 --> 02:35:55.319 a lot of people in greater Cincinnati area, so you 2876 02:35:55.440 --> 02:35:58.440 may already aready be familiar. The page describes itself as 2877 02:35:58.479 --> 02:36:02.280 a spicy meme page for ops, firefighters, medics and dispatchers. 2878 02:36:02.920 --> 02:36:05.840 So this person has connections within the Cincinni Police Department 2879 02:36:05.879 --> 02:36:09.600 and put a post up a few hours ago. Spoke 2880 02:36:09.680 --> 02:36:13.200 with a command staff homey CPDS Ivory Tower, who's pretty 2881 02:36:13.200 --> 02:36:15.399 pissed off about what happened on Fourth Street over the weekend. 2882 02:36:15.520 --> 02:36:19.079 Rights this is how the conversation went, and it's a 2883 02:36:19.200 --> 02:36:21.360 me hymn thing, So Signal ninety nine. And then the 2884 02:36:21.600 --> 02:36:25.360 command staff person that he's talking to, so Signal ninety nine. 2885 02:36:25.399 --> 02:36:27.479 Just how many officers were working in the downtown Central 2886 02:36:27.520 --> 02:36:31.239 Business section Friday night? Response? There were only three officers 2887 02:36:31.280 --> 02:36:33.360 assigned to work that Friday night, although there were several 2888 02:36:33.440 --> 02:36:38.000 extra squads and units working. CDRT and Squad ninety nine. 2889 02:36:38.079 --> 02:36:43.159 What about during the events? Response definitely adequately adequate coverage 2890 02:36:43.239 --> 02:36:47.159 until about two o'clock in the morning, Signal ninety nine. 2891 02:36:47.440 --> 02:36:50.680 They were all working third shift or power shift response. 2892 02:36:50.760 --> 02:36:54.319 The three officers were working second shift until two thirty 2893 02:36:55.959 --> 02:37:00.520 and the special units worked until two am. Ninety nine. 2894 02:37:00.559 --> 02:37:03.440 What about the Chief's new groovy task force? Did they 2895 02:37:03.520 --> 02:37:06.360 work past two o'clock in the morning? His response, doubtful, 2896 02:37:06.559 --> 02:37:10.319 I mean no comment. He then went on say Reds 2897 02:37:10.360 --> 02:37:13.040 five one three and jazz Fest were all over before 2898 02:37:13.079 --> 02:37:15.680 two am. The detail officers secured around two am, so 2899 02:37:15.799 --> 02:37:18.600 the CBS had to deal with the aftermath and those 2900 02:37:18.639 --> 02:37:23.799 who didn't leave downtown with only the three officers ninety nine, 2901 02:37:24.239 --> 02:37:26.639 So after two am, how many officers were there to 2902 02:37:26.719 --> 02:37:28.920 handle the after crowds from the Reds game, the five 2903 02:37:28.959 --> 02:37:33.680 one three event in JazzFest response? All event officers left 2904 02:37:33.760 --> 02:37:37.879 at or before two am. That left three third shift 2905 02:37:37.920 --> 02:37:40.840 relief officers and two more PVO that left at four am. 2906 02:37:40.959 --> 02:37:43.559 Those five officers and the three events and the rest 2907 02:37:43.639 --> 02:37:46.520 of the district to respond to, that's a lot of 2908 02:37:46.600 --> 02:37:48.920 square miles, folks, at a lot of people to have 2909 02:37:49.040 --> 02:37:52.920 to contend with. It's just interject that ninety nine says, 2910 02:37:52.959 --> 02:37:55.079 do you feel that there was sufficient coverage for that 2911 02:37:55.200 --> 02:37:57.879 many events going on Friday night into Saturday morning. Response. 2912 02:37:57.920 --> 02:37:59.920 Allow me to steal a quote from the Grand Pooba 2913 02:38:00.559 --> 02:38:05.840 Absolutely not ninety nine concludes, thank you for your time 2914 02:38:05.879 --> 02:38:08.239 in honesty is response, thank you for getting the word out? 2915 02:38:08.280 --> 02:38:10.399 Looks like it really got out this time. Referring to 2916 02:38:10.479 --> 02:38:12.520 his web page, the Signal ninety nine page, which you 2917 02:38:12.559 --> 02:38:16.040 can follow as well. Response, Yeah, I keep waiting for 2918 02:38:16.159 --> 02:38:18.120 Elon to call me, but the only people blowing up 2919 02:38:18.159 --> 02:38:21.239 my phone or reporters response, yeah, I don't miss that. 2920 02:38:22.280 --> 02:38:28.639 Take care, so three count them? And the other component 2921 02:38:28.719 --> 02:38:33.239 of this, which I thought was rather interesting, because police 2922 02:38:33.360 --> 02:38:35.680 Chief Thiji was talking about the response time, which is 2923 02:38:35.719 --> 02:38:40.280 about six minutes according to wlwg's reporting. Chief Thigi said 2924 02:38:40.280 --> 02:38:42.840 Cincinnati officers had a response time of six minutes in 2925 02:38:43.000 --> 02:38:47.200 part due to the heavy traffic in the downtown area 2926 02:38:47.319 --> 02:38:51.959 at the time, which say, we you what about the traffic? 2927 02:38:52.079 --> 02:38:55.879 Three am usually isn't a really packed street kind of time. 2928 02:38:56.799 --> 02:38:58.360 But what that think I also what I think that 2929 02:38:58.440 --> 02:39:01.520 also speaks to is the three officers that were available 2930 02:39:02.399 --> 02:39:07.239 weren't anywhere near the area they had to drive to 2931 02:39:07.360 --> 02:39:11.840 get there. Lee's one to sort of kind of want 2932 02:39:11.840 --> 02:39:15.479 to ask the question, were there enough officers out there 2933 02:39:16.040 --> 02:39:19.440 at the time? Are there enough officers at any given time, 2934 02:39:19.680 --> 02:39:22.239 given the shortage of staff that we were facing right now, 2935 02:39:23.799 --> 02:39:29.159 will the mayor do anything about it? Legitimate questions. You know, 2936 02:39:29.360 --> 02:39:31.799 sometimes good things can come from bad events, and let's 2937 02:39:31.840 --> 02:39:33.600 only hope that we get a change in strategy and 2938 02:39:33.639 --> 02:39:37.319 policing in downtown Cincinnati for the better, because clearly we 2939 02:39:37.399 --> 02:39:40.760 are on the wrong trajectory.
