Glorious Friday afternoon 6 00:00:16.280 --> 00:00:18.760 for early December. Only thing better. It could be just 7 00:00:18.800 --> 00:00:21.960 a real nice snow at some point, right, a good 8 00:00:22.160 --> 00:00:25.359 safe snow. Maybe you know, when nobody's on the roads. 9 00:00:26.000 --> 00:00:28.160 Is there such a time just to get in the 10 00:00:28.239 --> 00:00:30.719 Christmas sphere? But glad you're here. I treat it as 11 00:00:30.760 --> 00:00:34.640 an open line Friday. Obviously it's Friday, but pretty much 12 00:00:34.640 --> 00:00:37.240 every day now is open lines, open topic because the 13 00:00:37.240 --> 00:00:40.359 world's just moving that quickly. I think the days of 14 00:00:40.479 --> 00:00:42.479 just okay, you got this one topic and you're banging 15 00:00:42.520 --> 00:00:44.719 out for half an hour an hour, I think those 16 00:00:44.759 --> 00:00:47.520 are long long gone. It's just the speed of sound 17 00:00:47.600 --> 00:00:49.719 right now. A lot of ground to cover. Of course, 18 00:00:49.719 --> 00:00:53.960 we've been talking about the Daniel Penny persecution in New York, 19 00:00:54.000 --> 00:00:56.439 a case that never should have been brought. It's the 20 00:00:56.520 --> 00:01:00.359 kind of case that really undermines confidence in the justice system, 21 00:01:00.399 --> 00:01:03.039 and this is a second such case out of New York. 22 00:01:03.079 --> 00:01:05.439 Obviously we've talked about in a short period of time, 23 00:01:05.480 --> 00:01:08.239 which heightens that concern, but also the lesson for all 24 00:01:08.280 --> 00:01:10.120 of us that I want to get to, and it's 25 00:01:10.120 --> 00:01:12.120 sad we've reached the point in America where we have 26 00:01:12.200 --> 00:01:15.439 to talk about this kind of reality. Get to that 27 00:01:15.480 --> 00:01:17.159 in a second. The latest on the Penny case, I'm 28 00:01:17.200 --> 00:01:20.719 sure you know from the headlines by now, is that, yeah, 29 00:01:20.799 --> 00:01:24.480 the jurors deadlocked. But at this point, unless there's been 30 00:01:24.760 --> 00:01:27.599 something new on my drive over here, we don't know 31 00:01:27.719 --> 00:01:30.319 the number of that deadlock, nor would I expect that 32 00:01:30.359 --> 00:01:32.760 we know how many jurors had voted in favor of 33 00:01:32.840 --> 00:01:37.840 conviction versus acquittal on the primary manslaughter charge, and we 34 00:01:38.079 --> 00:01:41.120 don't know that at this point because they're still deliberating. 35 00:01:41.159 --> 00:01:45.599 And now they're deliberating a lesser charge of criminally negligent homicides, 36 00:01:45.680 --> 00:01:49.319 so we'll see what the jury does with that. Anything 37 00:01:49.359 --> 00:01:53.079 short of an acquittal I think, would again just undermine 38 00:01:53.120 --> 00:01:55.239 confidence in the system, and the starting point is be 39 00:01:55.359 --> 00:01:59.640 so fundamentally unfair to mister Penny, and would also just 40 00:01:59.719 --> 00:02:03.040 under public safety further, because you know, at least in 41 00:02:03.079 --> 00:02:05.200 New York, and I think beyond how many people are 42 00:02:05.200 --> 00:02:07.560 going to be willing to help out and protect others 43 00:02:08.039 --> 00:02:11.360 if all of the sudden, if you have a lefty prosecutor, 44 00:02:11.960 --> 00:02:14.680 you could be facing years in prison and the destruction 45 00:02:14.960 --> 00:02:18.039 of your life. So just added to all the damage 46 00:02:18.080 --> 00:02:21.400 that's done to everyday life by these far lefties who've 47 00:02:21.479 --> 00:02:24.639 taken over the Democratic Party and just cause an awful 48 00:02:24.680 --> 00:02:28.560 lot of misery, it's also a reminder that other than 49 00:02:29.080 --> 00:02:32.400 the vote for president, I think the most important vote 50 00:02:32.479 --> 00:02:36.199 people cast is the vote for their local district attorney, 51 00:02:36.680 --> 00:02:40.479 because that woman or man has the ability to destroy people, 52 00:02:40.479 --> 00:02:42.800 as Kamala Harris loved to brag, with just the stroke 53 00:02:42.840 --> 00:02:45.240 of a pen, and at the same time, a good 54 00:02:45.360 --> 00:02:49.280 DA you know, can just be that rock in a community. 55 00:02:49.360 --> 00:02:52.520 You know, law enforcement has confidence, criminals know if they 56 00:02:52.520 --> 00:02:56.520 go there, they're going to be prosecuted. So unless you're 57 00:02:56.560 --> 00:02:58.639 in a swing state, it is the most important vote 58 00:02:58.680 --> 00:03:01.599 you'll cast. Normally, if you're in a swing state, yeah, 59 00:03:01.879 --> 00:03:04.800 then it's probably president eight four zero five A two 60 00:03:04.879 --> 00:03:05.520 five to five. 61 00:03:05.599 --> 00:03:07.919 Question Dan on the legal aspect of what happened with 62 00:03:08.039 --> 00:03:11.520 Daniel Penny here and the jurors being stuck on the 63 00:03:11.560 --> 00:03:14.840 greater manslaughter charge and the second degree the judge dismissed 64 00:03:14.879 --> 00:03:17.759 that does mean does that mean that Daniel Penny cannot 65 00:03:17.800 --> 00:03:18.919 be charged with that again? 66 00:03:19.039 --> 00:03:19.280 Yes? 67 00:03:19.560 --> 00:03:23.680 Yeah, because what happened was the DA dismissed it. And 68 00:03:23.840 --> 00:03:26.680 what the DA did because listen, obviously there's been so 69 00:03:26.759 --> 00:03:29.520 much outrage in America that that charge was even brought, 70 00:03:30.199 --> 00:03:32.719 and when they couldn't get a jury to convict on it, 71 00:03:33.560 --> 00:03:36.960 you know, the DA went ahead and dismissed it, not magnanimously. 72 00:03:37.280 --> 00:03:38.439 Was that Alvin Bragg who did that. 73 00:03:38.719 --> 00:03:40.680 It's his office and it would have been whatever deputy 74 00:03:40.759 --> 00:03:43.159 was handling that. But the reason the DA did it 75 00:03:43.840 --> 00:03:48.039 was was hoping that could then facilitate a conviction of 76 00:03:48.199 --> 00:03:52.759 Penny on the lesser criminally negligent homicide, So that that 77 00:03:53.000 --> 00:03:58.159 was their strategy there. But and you know, listen, unless 78 00:03:58.159 --> 00:04:00.000 you're in the courtroom, and I've covered some really big 79 00:04:00.120 --> 00:04:02.199 trials in the court and for media, and I try 80 00:04:02.280 --> 00:04:03.680 a lot of my own cases. I'll be in a 81 00:04:03.719 --> 00:04:05.800 jury trial next week and we'll have just an all 82 00:04:05.840 --> 00:04:09.960 star lineup in here doing the show while I'm in trial. 83 00:04:10.479 --> 00:04:12.719 In fact, I think the over under on my key 84 00:04:12.759 --> 00:04:14.800 card working. When I get back I think it's an 85 00:04:14.879 --> 00:04:17.319 under right now. I think the bet is my key 86 00:04:17.319 --> 00:04:19.360 card will not be active when I get back here, 87 00:04:19.399 --> 00:04:21.920 because we've got some really good folks sown in, which 88 00:04:21.959 --> 00:04:24.360 is a point of pride for me, Ryan because over 89 00:04:24.399 --> 00:04:27.199 the years, you know, you watch it on late night 90 00:04:27.199 --> 00:04:29.920 TV and other places. You see at some places in radio, 91 00:04:30.519 --> 00:04:33.000 some places, not all, but when people are going to 92 00:04:33.040 --> 00:04:35.160 have a sub, the last thing they want is a 93 00:04:35.160 --> 00:04:38.439 great sub. Last thing they want is somebody who people say, 94 00:04:38.480 --> 00:04:40.920 oh yeah, no, I like that backup quarterback. Yeah yeah, 95 00:04:41.000 --> 00:04:44.879 trade the quarterback. Nobody wants that. I've always gone out 96 00:04:44.920 --> 00:04:48.319 of my way to get great subs, respect for the audience, 97 00:04:48.360 --> 00:04:51.480 and you know, you want to add value to people's lives. 98 00:04:51.480 --> 00:04:53.639 So yeah, we've got a great crew coming in next week, 99 00:04:53.959 --> 00:04:57.879 George Brockler, Christy Burton, Brown, Heidi Ganall, de Braah Flora. 100 00:04:58.519 --> 00:05:01.120 So it'll be a great group. While I am off 101 00:05:01.160 --> 00:05:04.920 in the courtroom d N five seven, seven thirty nine. 102 00:05:05.079 --> 00:05:07.879 So let's hope the jury does the right thing and acquits. 103 00:05:08.279 --> 00:05:10.959 But the point I was making before that was, Okay, 104 00:05:11.000 --> 00:05:13.920 how many people do you think we're really voting for 105 00:05:14.160 --> 00:05:17.439 conviction on that manslaughter charge? In the pennycase. And I'm 106 00:05:17.480 --> 00:05:19.639 sure you remember the Penny Caase the New York subway 107 00:05:19.680 --> 00:05:23.360 where this former marine hero Daniel Penny save the people 108 00:05:23.399 --> 00:05:27.680 on the subway from a drugged up psycho guy threatening 109 00:05:27.680 --> 00:05:30.879 to kill and doing all sorts of wild things. So, 110 00:05:32.560 --> 00:05:35.079 you know, we can't possibly know from a radio studio, 111 00:05:35.399 --> 00:05:37.439 but if you're in the courtroom all the time and 112 00:05:37.480 --> 00:05:41.920 you're watching the jury, then my guess is that the 113 00:05:42.000 --> 00:05:44.600 attorneys in the courtroom probably have a pretty good feel 114 00:05:45.120 --> 00:05:47.759 for whether this was an eleven to one deal with 115 00:05:47.879 --> 00:05:51.600 one person holding up the acquittal, and from a distance, 116 00:05:51.639 --> 00:05:53.959 that would be my guess that it was one or 117 00:05:53.959 --> 00:05:57.040 two or some small number holding up the acquittal, and 118 00:05:57.160 --> 00:05:59.040 just based on the state of the evidence, that the 119 00:05:59.160 --> 00:06:02.600 vast majority wanted to acquit find not guilty. And that's 120 00:06:02.959 --> 00:06:07.000 probably also what contributed to the dismissal of that charge 121 00:06:07.079 --> 00:06:11.160 rather than trying to retry him on that. But Penny 122 00:06:11.199 --> 00:06:14.120 is still in jeopardy because the jury continues to deliberate 123 00:06:14.199 --> 00:06:18.199 and on Monday they'll resume with that criminally negligent homicide charge. 124 00:06:18.600 --> 00:06:21.680 The bigger lesson from that is something that I would 125 00:06:21.720 --> 00:06:25.199 have never imagined even thinking about when I first started 126 00:06:25.240 --> 00:06:28.519 on air almost thirty years ago, and that is I 127 00:06:28.560 --> 00:06:31.360 can just tell you for myself, but you got to 128 00:06:31.360 --> 00:06:37.000 make your own decisions. It makes an enormous amount of 129 00:06:37.399 --> 00:06:44.879 difference what county you are in if something bad happens, 130 00:06:45.480 --> 00:06:50.120 because if you've got a politically motivated sorrows type lefty 131 00:06:50.240 --> 00:06:55.720 DA who is willing to pervert justice, ignore justice, have 132 00:06:55.800 --> 00:07:00.720 two standards of justice, then all of a sudden, you're 133 00:07:00.720 --> 00:07:03.959 not in America anymore because guess what, those normally aren't 134 00:07:04.000 --> 00:07:06.319 federal charges. Let's say you decide you're going to New 135 00:07:06.399 --> 00:07:12.240 York or in my constitutionally protected opinion of Beth McCann 136 00:07:12.360 --> 00:07:14.560 Denver with Beth McCann as DA, and I like Beth, 137 00:07:14.639 --> 00:07:16.040 we've had her on the show, but as a DA, 138 00:07:17.120 --> 00:07:20.279 my protected opinion as yeah, I think politics gets in 139 00:07:20.279 --> 00:07:23.480 the way there. So if you happen to be in 140 00:07:23.519 --> 00:07:28.040 some jurisdiction with the politically motivated lefty DA, then all 141 00:07:28.079 --> 00:07:31.759 of a sudden, you can't depend on the law being 142 00:07:31.879 --> 00:07:35.079 enforced properly. In my opinion, you can't depend on the 143 00:07:35.160 --> 00:07:39.040 law being enforced fairly, whether we're talking about you're the 144 00:07:39.120 --> 00:07:41.120 victim of some kind of attacked or a loved one 145 00:07:41.199 --> 00:07:43.959 is and is are you going to get justice? Is 146 00:07:44.040 --> 00:07:46.920 the attacker? Is the criminal going to be prosecuted? You 147 00:07:46.920 --> 00:07:50.399 can't count on the law being applied fairly in my opinion, 148 00:07:50.560 --> 00:07:54.839 in those lefty sorrols type DA jurisdictions. And at the 149 00:07:54.879 --> 00:07:58.560 same time, if you have to defend yourself or defend 150 00:07:58.639 --> 00:08:04.439 others in a situation in a jurisdiction like that, my opinion, yeah, 151 00:08:04.480 --> 00:08:07.199 you can't depend on the law being applied fairly. And 152 00:08:07.240 --> 00:08:10.839 that's not a reflection on law enforcement. I think there's 153 00:08:11.120 --> 00:08:15.040 enormous consistency in law enforcement all over the country, and 154 00:08:15.360 --> 00:08:17.360 with the dad as a thirty year cop in Chicago 155 00:08:17.519 --> 00:08:20.000 represent a lot of cops, etc. In their injury cases. 156 00:08:21.399 --> 00:08:24.319 I think there's consistency all over America because you normally 157 00:08:24.360 --> 00:08:27.000 get the same kind of person who wants to be 158 00:08:27.079 --> 00:08:30.199 a cop. And other than in every walk of life, 159 00:08:30.240 --> 00:08:32.320 every profession has a few bad apples, other than the 160 00:08:32.320 --> 00:08:37.399 bad apples, it's normally good, smart, strong, courageous people who 161 00:08:37.440 --> 00:08:42.080 want to protect and serve, And so you get this consistency. 162 00:08:42.120 --> 00:08:46.440 Where you get the wild variance is with these elected 163 00:08:46.519 --> 00:08:52.039 das and the politically motivated lefties. Then at that point. Yeah, 164 00:08:52.320 --> 00:08:55.200 it's like you're in America anymore. With the good das 165 00:08:55.240 --> 00:08:58.159 whether they're Democrat, Republican, etc. The ones who just view 166 00:08:58.200 --> 00:09:00.200 it as a sacred trust to enforce the law law, 167 00:09:00.919 --> 00:09:04.279 then you're in America. And that is a very very 168 00:09:04.320 --> 00:09:08.799 sad point we've come to. But Daniel Penny is exhibit 169 00:09:08.919 --> 00:09:13.279 A or A one. Donald Trump, that persecution in New 170 00:09:13.360 --> 00:09:16.600 York exhibit A or A one. But you can point 171 00:09:16.639 --> 00:09:19.240 to stuff locally as well. I mean, look at what 172 00:09:19.360 --> 00:09:24.720 happened after the the mob crimes in Denver, you know, 173 00:09:24.799 --> 00:09:27.960 following the death of George Floyd. Did we see the 174 00:09:28.039 --> 00:09:31.840 law enforced equally there against large numbers of people who 175 00:09:31.919 --> 00:09:34.799 violated the law, desecrated the capital, etc. No, I don't 176 00:09:34.799 --> 00:09:37.240 think we did. And then you see some of the 177 00:09:37.279 --> 00:09:40.320 stuff done to conservatives. Well eight five five for zero 178 00:09:40.399 --> 00:09:42.480 five A two five five the number d A N 179 00:09:42.639 --> 00:09:45.960 five seven seven three nine lines in Fuego. Great guest today, 180 00:09:45.960 --> 00:09:49.039 by the way, John Castillo, father of hero Kendrick, at 181 00:09:49.120 --> 00:09:52.840 four thirty six, and another John Caldera, joins us at 182 00:09:52.879 --> 00:09:56.840 five oh six. Fascinating story he has on gang activity 183 00:09:57.360 --> 00:10:01.279 in Colorado and many more. You're on the DAN Capla. 184 00:10:01.080 --> 00:10:07.200 Show and now back to the Dan Taplas Show podcast ABC. 185 00:10:07.960 --> 00:10:11.360 The view did this and I was looking at some 186 00:10:11.399 --> 00:10:13.159 of the social media comments, and I try to stay 187 00:10:13.159 --> 00:10:16.039 away from social media, but it said some of the 188 00:10:16.039 --> 00:10:19.360 comments were thoughts and deductibles to the family. One of 189 00:10:19.399 --> 00:10:22.679 the comments was, unfortunately, my condolences are out of network, 190 00:10:23.039 --> 00:10:25.480 and so I think it really isn't that something. I 191 00:10:25.480 --> 00:10:28.080 really think it's reflective about how people are feeling about 192 00:10:28.080 --> 00:10:30.840 their healthcare. And if you look at this particular ceo, 193 00:10:31.320 --> 00:10:33.440 while he made about ten million dollars a year, which 194 00:10:33.440 --> 00:10:36.000 is not actually unusual for CEO of a company this size, 195 00:10:36.080 --> 00:10:40.720 this particular health company, United Healthcare, is the largest company 196 00:10:40.720 --> 00:10:45.639 that responsible for Medicare Medicare programs for people. 197 00:10:45.440 --> 00:10:46.799 Over the age of sixty five. 198 00:10:47.360 --> 00:10:50.799 And our country is one of the only countries that 199 00:10:50.840 --> 00:10:53.679 doesn't have universal health care, and we don't take care 200 00:10:53.720 --> 00:10:56.279 of our elderly, and people are feeling the pinch, and 201 00:10:56.360 --> 00:10:57.440 we talk about that all the. 202 00:10:57.399 --> 00:10:59.840 Time, and oh my lord, I can't believe they're trying 203 00:10:59.840 --> 00:11:04.279 to use the assassination of this ceo, you know, to 204 00:11:04.679 --> 00:11:08.919 push socialized medicine. And listen, I fight insurance companies every day. 205 00:11:09.679 --> 00:11:12.000 I'll be out on next week in a core room, 206 00:11:12.320 --> 00:11:14.600 you know, in a jury trial. You know where we're 207 00:11:14.720 --> 00:11:18.320 taking on an insurance company. So I get that, and 208 00:11:18.360 --> 00:11:20.679 I get the anger, and I've devoted a big chunk 209 00:11:20.679 --> 00:11:23.799 of my adult life to helping people get fairness from 210 00:11:23.840 --> 00:11:28.320 insurance companies. But every decent, rational American understands that that 211 00:11:29.200 --> 00:11:32.559 there is never an excuse for violence like this, and 212 00:11:33.039 --> 00:11:34.840 so for them to try to use that to push 213 00:11:34.879 --> 00:11:38.159 socialized health, I mean that's just perverted eight five to 214 00:11:38.200 --> 00:11:40.279 five for zero five eight two five five the number. 215 00:11:40.320 --> 00:11:42.679 And you think they would be more careful. You think 216 00:11:42.720 --> 00:11:45.639 they would be more careful with all the threats out 217 00:11:45.639 --> 00:11:47.600 there and all the wackos, and the number of wackos 218 00:11:47.639 --> 00:11:51.879 as we go to the phone lines increasing exponentially as 219 00:11:52.480 --> 00:11:55.519 so called legalized drugs takeover. I mean, you know it, 220 00:11:55.639 --> 00:11:57.759 just look around, look around life. Look around a place 221 00:11:57.840 --> 00:12:01.919 like Colorado. You have so much more nuttiness and craziness 222 00:12:01.960 --> 00:12:05.039 and craziness on the roadways and craziness in everyday life 223 00:12:05.759 --> 00:12:08.519 because you got some more so many more people on drugs. 224 00:12:08.879 --> 00:12:13.120 I mean, there's no doubt about that. So yeah, let's 225 00:12:13.159 --> 00:12:15.919 go to monument Colorado. Will start with Joe. You're on 226 00:12:15.960 --> 00:12:17.360 the Dan Kaplis Show. Welcome. 227 00:12:18.279 --> 00:12:22.919 Hey, Dan. I'm not a big believer in coincidence, So 228 00:12:22.960 --> 00:12:26.039 I'm wondering what you think about the release of the 229 00:12:26.360 --> 00:12:30.440 movie about Alan Berg's killing and white supremacist right in 230 00:12:30.519 --> 00:12:32.759 the lead up to the president's inauguration. 231 00:12:34.720 --> 00:12:37.759 Whoa brother, Take me back to the beginning the ellen 232 00:12:37.799 --> 00:12:40.200 Berg movie. Tell me about that because I'm not familiar 233 00:12:40.200 --> 00:12:44.399 with it. And then what is the tie in that 234 00:12:44.440 --> 00:12:45.279 you're making there? 235 00:12:46.279 --> 00:12:50.120 Well, the movie The Order is coming out right now. 236 00:12:51.080 --> 00:12:55.519 It is about white supremacy, white supremacists and them killing 237 00:12:55.559 --> 00:12:58.360 alan Berg back in what nineteen eighty four, I believe, 238 00:13:00.000 --> 00:13:03.000 And I just feel like, here's the left releasing a 239 00:13:03.039 --> 00:13:06.799 movie about white supremacy. They couldn't get to the president 240 00:13:06.919 --> 00:13:09.240 any other way, and I wonder if they're just trying 241 00:13:09.279 --> 00:13:09.919 to do it now. 242 00:13:11.519 --> 00:13:13.799 Hey, I appreciate the call, my friend. Thank you. I 243 00:13:13.840 --> 00:13:15.720 know we have some sound on that we'll pull it up. 244 00:13:15.720 --> 00:13:19.639 And I certainly remember I never met Elinburg. I think 245 00:13:19.639 --> 00:13:21.840 I was on air with him once, if I remember right. 246 00:13:21.879 --> 00:13:24.799 I think I was on air with Allan once, but 247 00:13:25.200 --> 00:13:27.919 never met him. Wasn't a friend, but certainly remember the 248 00:13:28.000 --> 00:13:30.679 horrific killing. Remember the night it happened, and then the 249 00:13:30.759 --> 00:13:33.279 trials and everything to follow. Ryan, you say, we have 250 00:13:33.320 --> 00:13:38.840 some sound on that on the trailer. Oh okay, okay, 251 00:13:38.879 --> 00:13:41.879 so let's fire that on this movie that's coming out. 252 00:13:42.480 --> 00:13:46.759 In terms of whether there's some motive behind that relating 253 00:13:46.759 --> 00:13:52.759 to the President, I not that I can immediately think of. 254 00:13:53.080 --> 00:13:55.159 And listen, we've talked about it for a long time. 255 00:13:55.600 --> 00:13:58.360 You know, Donald Trump has been in extreme peril for 256 00:13:58.639 --> 00:14:03.399 a long time, and that peril went up exponentially when 257 00:14:03.440 --> 00:14:06.240 he made the courageous decision to protect American troops in 258 00:14:06.360 --> 00:14:09.559 America by taking out Sola money. You know that that 259 00:14:09.639 --> 00:14:13.799 evil terrorist general in Iran, and so the danger level 260 00:14:13.840 --> 00:14:16.600 went way way up. Then. Obviously Iran's been trying to 261 00:14:16.679 --> 00:14:19.120 kill him ever since. The US has admitted that, you 262 00:14:19.120 --> 00:14:21.679 have others trying to kill him, and then the Biden 263 00:14:21.720 --> 00:14:27.840 administration doing an unimaginably bad job, way beyond negligence in 264 00:14:27.960 --> 00:14:31.240 protecting them. So there's no doubt he's under constant threats. 265 00:14:31.279 --> 00:14:33.279 But I'm not at the point where I'm saying releasing 266 00:14:33.440 --> 00:14:35.600 a movie at a certain time is meant to increase 267 00:14:35.639 --> 00:14:39.000 that danger. But here's a shorter version of the trailer. 268 00:14:41.320 --> 00:14:50.039 Come on taking down your damn never say yet? Yo, 269 00:14:50.720 --> 00:14:53.600 how are you please? Ex million? What is that by 270 00:14:53.720 --> 00:15:01.960 an army? It's happening? War drawn too much tension. FBI, 271 00:15:02.519 --> 00:15:07.159 I've wandered car who I'm playing with her? You're not 272 00:15:07.240 --> 00:15:09.399 from here? Huh you're following me? 273 00:15:13.919 --> 00:15:14.120 You know. 274 00:15:14.159 --> 00:15:17.320 We'll get Pete boils on on this. Pete is very 275 00:15:17.399 --> 00:15:20.600 very close to Alan And and as this movie comes 276 00:15:20.639 --> 00:15:23.080 more into the public consciousness, we'll do that. Let's go 277 00:15:23.080 --> 00:15:25.720 to Robin Denver. You're on the Dan Capitalist. You'll welcome. 278 00:15:27.639 --> 00:15:32.240 Thank you, Dan. I always enjoy your program. Yeah, you 279 00:15:33.320 --> 00:15:34.559 are always very thoughtful. 280 00:15:34.919 --> 00:15:35.360 Thank you. 281 00:15:35.799 --> 00:15:40.720 So I've been yeah, so I've been out of the 282 00:15:40.799 --> 00:15:46.759 area for about maybe about a year, overseas in Hawaii, 283 00:15:46.919 --> 00:15:53.799 different places. And uh, I guess, putting aside your obvious 284 00:15:53.840 --> 00:15:56.559 obvious love for Polish and as well as the mayor 285 00:15:56.559 --> 00:16:01.320 of Denver, I'm just kidding, but what what do you 286 00:16:01.519 --> 00:16:05.360 think the city of Denver is going to look like? 287 00:16:05.559 --> 00:16:07.559 This area is going to look like at this time 288 00:16:07.639 --> 00:16:10.519 next year, you know, with all the different forces on it. 289 00:16:10.960 --> 00:16:12.799 You know, I know it's hard for anybody to have 290 00:16:12.840 --> 00:16:19.480 a true crystal ball but what a great questions. You know, safety, 291 00:16:19.600 --> 00:16:21.279 every whatever you think is good. 292 00:16:21.360 --> 00:16:24.000 There no thank you for the question. What a great question. 293 00:16:24.440 --> 00:16:26.679 And by the way, when I set a second ago 294 00:16:27.440 --> 00:16:30.240 tell my wife that about being thoughtful, I meant politically. 295 00:16:31.559 --> 00:16:34.080 You know, my wife knows I'm a very thoughtful guy, 296 00:16:34.159 --> 00:16:36.519 but politically she doesn't always agree with what I have 297 00:16:36.600 --> 00:16:39.159 to say. Now to your great question, what is Denver 298 00:16:39.240 --> 00:16:42.519 going to look Thank you appreciate that. What is Denver 299 00:16:42.559 --> 00:16:46.000 going to look like in a year? I don't see 300 00:16:46.120 --> 00:16:49.639 any big significant change in the next year. And the 301 00:16:49.679 --> 00:16:52.440 reason I say that, my friend, is we're in an 302 00:16:52.519 --> 00:16:55.399 election cycle in Denver, now right, I mean in Colorado. 303 00:16:55.440 --> 00:16:58.679 But Mike Johnston wants to be governor of the state, 304 00:16:59.360 --> 00:17:01.519 and so he's going to be doing a lot of 305 00:17:01.559 --> 00:17:05.119 things in Denver to try to increase his chance of 306 00:17:05.279 --> 00:17:09.599 winning that office. So I don't at this point see 307 00:17:09.640 --> 00:17:12.559 any dramatic change in Denver in the next year. I 308 00:17:12.640 --> 00:17:16.960 think that Donald Trump now clearly is going to start, 309 00:17:17.440 --> 00:17:20.119 if if not start in Colorado. Colorado will be very 310 00:17:20.160 --> 00:17:25.200 high on his list for the deportation of criminal illegals 311 00:17:25.240 --> 00:17:28.359 and those who've been adjudicated in order to leave. So 312 00:17:28.519 --> 00:17:30.079 I think you're going to see a lot of that 313 00:17:30.240 --> 00:17:35.000 activity in and around Denver in the next year. I 314 00:17:35.079 --> 00:17:39.440 do not expect to see lawless Mike follow through on 315 00:17:39.480 --> 00:17:43.039 his threat to Mountain Insurrection to try to physically stop 316 00:17:43.119 --> 00:17:46.279 federal law enforcement from carrying out the law. I think 317 00:17:46.319 --> 00:17:49.839 you'll see a lot of jabbering, maybe a lawsuit or two, 318 00:17:50.559 --> 00:17:54.759 but I think that'll probably be the biggest type of 319 00:17:54.799 --> 00:17:56.759 activity we see in Denver in the next year. Now, 320 00:17:56.759 --> 00:17:59.720 if you want to talk sports, I could spoil your 321 00:17:59.799 --> 00:18:01.680 year by telling you how each and every team is 322 00:18:01.720 --> 00:18:03.160 going to do over the next year. But I know 323 00:18:03.200 --> 00:18:03.920 you don't want that. 324 00:18:06.519 --> 00:18:11.920 No, it sounds like, yeah, I mean nobody has a 325 00:18:11.920 --> 00:18:14.680 crystal ball, but I mean you know more about it 326 00:18:14.680 --> 00:18:15.119 than I do. 327 00:18:15.559 --> 00:18:19.799 Really interested here, Well, you're kind to ask, but that 328 00:18:19.960 --> 00:18:21.759 is my take. I think that's going to be the 329 00:18:21.799 --> 00:18:24.480 biggest visible change in Denver in the next year is 330 00:18:24.599 --> 00:18:29.240 all of this activity with the deportations, because again Johnston, 331 00:18:29.319 --> 00:18:31.319 Polus the rest have gone out of their way to 332 00:18:31.400 --> 00:18:35.400 attract illegals here, including criminal illegal So there's going to 333 00:18:35.400 --> 00:18:37.279 be a lot of activity. 334 00:18:38.279 --> 00:18:41.680 You're listening to the Dan Kaplis Show podcast, I'm so. 335 00:18:41.799 --> 00:18:44.559 Privileged to go to the VIP line and welcome John 336 00:18:44.640 --> 00:18:47.640 Castillo to the show. I'm sure you know John, and 337 00:18:48.079 --> 00:18:52.279 certainly you know of Kendrick's, son of John and Maria Kistio, 338 00:18:52.519 --> 00:18:55.559 one of the greatest heroes in Colorado history if you're 339 00:18:55.599 --> 00:18:59.039 new to the planet. Kendrick gave up his life to 340 00:18:59.119 --> 00:19:04.079 save his entire classroom from being methodically executed by demonic 341 00:19:04.160 --> 00:19:07.039 killers who had a very concrete plan to do just that, 342 00:19:07.839 --> 00:19:11.480 to execute each and every person individually. But Kendrick stood up, 343 00:19:12.000 --> 00:19:14.440 took on the shooter, gave his life where it saved 344 00:19:14.640 --> 00:19:18.160 his class, and some other students acted heroically as well. 345 00:19:18.200 --> 00:19:23.759 But John and Maria have just been very determined, through 346 00:19:23.880 --> 00:19:27.920 all of their unimaginable grief to help protect other students 347 00:19:27.920 --> 00:19:31.000 and faculty and staff. So they have pursued things. I've 348 00:19:31.000 --> 00:19:33.880 had the privilege of representing them to try to get 349 00:19:33.920 --> 00:19:36.480 the full truth about what happened at school that day 350 00:19:36.559 --> 00:19:40.400 to the public so the lessons could be learned and 351 00:19:40.920 --> 00:19:43.559 students would be better protected in the future. So I've 352 00:19:43.599 --> 00:19:46.920 had the privilege of getting to know John and Maria well, 353 00:19:47.240 --> 00:19:50.839 and their work continues. And what happened today in Highlands Ranch, 354 00:19:51.440 --> 00:19:54.720 you know, we all wished to God that it had 355 00:19:54.759 --> 00:19:57.160 never been necessary that Kendrick was still with us, but 356 00:19:57.480 --> 00:20:01.000 with Kendrick taken, what happened today is such a beautiful 357 00:20:01.000 --> 00:20:04.079 thing and a thing that will I think inspire just 358 00:20:04.160 --> 00:20:06.079 the best in people for a long time to come. 359 00:20:06.119 --> 00:20:08.000 So I wanted to talk with John about that. John, 360 00:20:08.000 --> 00:20:09.200 appreciate you being here. 361 00:20:10.759 --> 00:20:11.480 Yeah, thank you. Dan. 362 00:20:12.039 --> 00:20:14.720 Yeah, excuse me, I'm just fighting some little bug here. 363 00:20:14.720 --> 00:20:18.839 But can you maybe describe for us a little bit 364 00:20:18.839 --> 00:20:22.519 about this ceremony that occurred today as Kendrick Castile Way 365 00:20:22.799 --> 00:20:26.839 was dedicated out in Highland's Ranch. And this is, as 366 00:20:26.880 --> 00:20:30.519 I understand it, replacing Lucent Boulevard, which is a major 367 00:20:31.160 --> 00:20:35.000 major street in the Highlands Ranch. So so many, many, 368 00:20:35.039 --> 00:20:39.400 many motorists will be reminded of Kendrick and heroism and 369 00:20:39.480 --> 00:20:43.200 bravery and our very very best virtues. So please just 370 00:20:43.279 --> 00:20:45.400 take it and run and explain what happened today. 371 00:20:47.000 --> 00:20:50.240 Yeah, Well, thank you, Marie and I you know, it's 372 00:20:50.319 --> 00:20:53.759 end of the ceremony that you know, Governor Pola showed 373 00:20:53.839 --> 00:20:57.160 up for in many of our county commissioners, the sheriff 374 00:20:57.240 --> 00:20:59.680 from Douglas County, and there were so many other people 375 00:20:59.720 --> 00:21:04.880 and citizens and supporters and uh you know owners of 376 00:21:04.920 --> 00:21:09.759 business owners as well. The road renaming is for loosen 377 00:21:09.880 --> 00:21:14.000 To Boulevard that you know was for those who been 378 00:21:14.000 --> 00:21:16.759 it for a long time, was a technological company that 379 00:21:16.839 --> 00:21:22.319 no longer exists. So he had been working for some 380 00:21:22.519 --> 00:21:26.759 time unless renaming and everything was approved by the county 381 00:21:26.799 --> 00:21:31.680 and Governor of Paul Is assisted with you know, some 382 00:21:31.799 --> 00:21:34.160 work from the state and Sea Dot to make sure 383 00:21:34.200 --> 00:21:37.119 that we can get these signs put up and replaced 384 00:21:37.359 --> 00:21:42.160 and renamed Loucid to Kindercasty Away. And it will begin 385 00:21:42.880 --> 00:21:47.960 at County Line Road and Sea Force seventy roughly, and 386 00:21:48.000 --> 00:21:52.599 then it goes all the way down and stops at Broadway. 387 00:21:52.720 --> 00:21:55.480 So the whole section road that goes through Highlands Ranch 388 00:21:56.880 --> 00:22:02.599 and being renamed Magnificence pretty powerful. Yeah, that's really powerful. 389 00:22:02.640 --> 00:22:05.640 You know Marie and I as we were there and 390 00:22:06.880 --> 00:22:08.440 you know, I spoke a little bit about it and 391 00:22:08.440 --> 00:22:13.680 what it means to us. I mean that will create 392 00:22:13.720 --> 00:22:18.200 an avenue of conversation around the devastation that took Kendrick 393 00:22:18.240 --> 00:22:21.000 from Is on May seventh and twenty nineteen to Stem 394 00:22:21.039 --> 00:22:23.880 school shooting where he lost his life. I think it's 395 00:22:23.920 --> 00:22:27.519 an opportunity for families to discuss with maybe some of 396 00:22:27.559 --> 00:22:30.599 the children who weren't born at the time, who Kendrick 397 00:22:30.839 --> 00:22:35.160 was when they see that sign and his heroic actions, 398 00:22:35.319 --> 00:22:41.279 and you know, solutions to problems that plague our society 399 00:22:41.359 --> 00:22:45.200 with school shootings and what they might look like, and 400 00:22:45.359 --> 00:22:48.559 things about mental health with students that would go off 401 00:22:48.559 --> 00:22:53.279
