I'm going to give you a quote here 10 00:00:31,679 --> 00:00:36,159 from Walter Kern. He is the editor of County Highway 11 00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:42,719 to Publication and the co host of America Week. His 12 00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:45,880 co host, Walter Kern's co host is Matt Tayebi for 13 00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:52,240 that podcast or YouTube show or whatever it is. Anyway, 14 00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:59,840 Walter Kern quote, the anti prayer refrain is a talking point. 15 00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:04,239 Clearly it is being recited verbatim all over the place. 16 00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:09,439 In that sense, it is itself a sort of a prayer, 17 00:01:11,079 --> 00:01:15,439 perhaps the worst one ever. It should be noted also 18 00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:19,680 here that Jesus was praying as he was killed, and 19 00:01:19,719 --> 00:01:23,519 he went on to have great influence. But I thought 20 00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:26,599 this was very interesting in that it's a mantra that 21 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:30,359 the democrats and media. But I repeat myself, have been 22 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:35,879 using after school shootings. It's a slogan, but they say 23 00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:38,599 it so many times that it is sort of a prayer. 24 00:01:39,879 --> 00:01:43,680 Your thoughts and prayers don't mean anything. Thoughts and prayers 25 00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:47,519 are not enough, And what that is meant to do 26 00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:52,519 is to deflect the conversation and to accuse their political 27 00:01:52,599 --> 00:01:57,040 enemies of not doing what they want done. And so 28 00:01:57,159 --> 00:02:03,680 they have adopted this mantra, this prayer. As you hear 29 00:02:03,799 --> 00:02:08,360 from Jen Pisaki, she of the Circling Back fame former 30 00:02:08,439 --> 00:02:13,080 press secretary, she went on to the Twitter machine in 31 00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:16,759 the wake of the school shooting up in Minneapolis and 32 00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:23,680 she said, quote, prayer is not freaking enough. Prayers does 33 00:02:23,719 --> 00:02:27,719 not end school shootings. Prayers do not make parents feel 34 00:02:27,759 --> 00:02:30,919 safe sending their kids to school. Prayer does not bring 35 00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:40,039 these kids back enough with the thoughts and prayers. No, no, 36 00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:44,800 I'm not going to listen to Jen Pisaki. I'm not 37 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:49,919 going to adhere to her demand that I stop thinking 38 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:55,280 about or praying for the families that were involved in 39 00:02:55,479 --> 00:03:00,240 this horror. And by the way, not for nothing, the 40 00:03:00,319 --> 00:03:06,400 families have asked for prayers and are grateful for those prayers. 41 00:03:07,479 --> 00:03:16,479 Here a statement from Annunciation Catholic Schools Church in Minneapolis, 42 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:22,159 signed by the school principal, Matthew de Boor and the 43 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:28,039 church's pastor, Father Dennis Zerin. We are navigating an impossible 44 00:03:28,039 --> 00:03:31,800 situation together at this time. No words can capture what 45 00:03:31,879 --> 00:03:34,159 we have gone through, what we are going through, and 46 00:03:34,199 --> 00:03:36,599 what we will go through in the coming days and weeks, 47 00:03:36,879 --> 00:03:40,199 but we will navigate this together. Tragically, we lost two 48 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:43,199 of our beloved students before the scene was secured a 49 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:45,840 number of other children and parishioners were wounded, and they 50 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:48,360 are being treated at area hospitals. Some have been treated 51 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:51,639 and released. All staff are physically safe and accounted for. 52 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:55,879 Please lift up these families and these children in prayer 53 00:03:56,319 --> 00:03:59,599 and surround them and each other with your love during 54 00:03:59,639 --> 00:04:03,439 this cold time, in this time of darkness, let us 55 00:04:03,479 --> 00:04:06,360 commit to being the light to our children, each other, 56 00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:09,879 and our community. We will rebuild our future filled with 57 00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:15,520 hope together. So they appreciate the prayers. They're asking for prayers. 58 00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:21,120 This is what Christians do. They believe in prayer. Do 59 00:04:21,160 --> 00:04:24,800 they believe prayer is going to stop the bullets like 60 00:04:25,519 --> 00:04:29,720 Neo in the documentary The Matrix. No, they don't believe 61 00:04:29,759 --> 00:04:32,879 that prayer is going to stop all of the bullets 62 00:04:32,879 --> 00:04:36,839 from flying. Maybe it might work at some point, like 63 00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:39,360 I can't believe I survived that, you know, it's a 64 00:04:39,399 --> 00:04:42,959 miracle like that sort of thing. Maybe, But most Christians 65 00:04:43,439 --> 00:04:47,480 don't say prayers for particularly other people after a tragedy 66 00:04:47,600 --> 00:04:52,000 like this. They don't say prayers in order to like 67 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:55,720 go back in time change the terrible thing. It's a 68 00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:59,879 prayer for comfort, it's a prayer for strength, for peace. 69 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:06,639 It's to show the other human being that you feel 70 00:05:06,759 --> 00:05:12,759 for them and that you hope that they feel better soon, 71 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:17,199 not that they forget, not that the pain goes away, 72 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:21,560 but that you can go on living, that your life 73 00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:27,079 doesn't end now as well. And honestly, how dare you 74 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:32,040 tell anybody that they can't say prayers, they can't think 75 00:05:32,079 --> 00:05:39,920 about the victims' families. How dare you? Here's Guy Benson, 76 00:05:39,959 --> 00:05:43,319 he was on Fox News last night. I believe he 77 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:45,639 had a great response to all of this. 78 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:51,480 Speaker 2: And in the face of senselessness and despair, prayer and 79 00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:54,279 the presence of God can be a source of strength 80 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:58,600 and comfort when little else is available. And the thing is, 81 00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:00,879 I understand that some people blow on the left think 82 00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:03,920 that thoughts and prayers are not enough. But I don't 83 00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:07,319 know anyone across the spectrum who's making that argument, right. 84 00:06:07,399 --> 00:06:11,480 Who's saying thoughts prayers and that's it? Nobody, no one, 85 00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:15,600 It's thoughts, prayers and action. The difference is we don't 86 00:06:15,639 --> 00:06:18,600 necessarily agree on what the actions ought to be, what 87 00:06:18,639 --> 00:06:21,600 would be constitutional, what would work. If we're talking about 88 00:06:21,639 --> 00:06:25,360 gun control, for having uncomfortable conversations about the trans community, 89 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:28,839 whatever it might be, there will be divisiveness, there will 90 00:06:28,879 --> 00:06:32,560 be disagreement. Politics will come in to play fine. I 91 00:06:32,639 --> 00:06:35,040 understand that's part of what we do in a free society, 92 00:06:35,399 --> 00:06:40,600 but the starting point could be should be prayers and 93 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:43,120 denigrating or demeaning that in any way I think is 94 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:49,199 just so counterproductive and deeply off putting to most Americans. 95 00:06:49,199 --> 00:06:55,240 Speaker 1: Correct, absolutely correct. That's why I call it a deflection. 96 00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,360 The Democrats are attempting in the media, butter it be myself. 97 00:06:59,399 --> 00:07:06,079 They are attempting to deflect away from the underlying ideology 98 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:11,120 that was obvious and spelled out literally with all of 99 00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:16,879 their leftist talking points on full display in the shooter's manifesto, 100 00:07:17,199 --> 00:07:21,360 journals and videos that he posted was all laid bare, 101 00:07:21,959 --> 00:07:27,839 and so there's this deflection, and so they are projecting 102 00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:34,639 out this posture of do something, and you let this 103 00:07:34,839 --> 00:07:39,120 happen because you won't do what I want done, And 104 00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:43,720 so they are trying to use this emotional appeal at 105 00:07:43,759 --> 00:07:49,319 an emotional time to advance an agenda. And it's grotesque 106 00:07:49,519 --> 00:07:53,800 because Benson's exactly right the action part what you're demanding, 107 00:07:53,879 --> 00:07:55,759 and you're saying, we need to skip over the thoughts 108 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:58,040 and prayers portion, but go right to the action. And 109 00:07:58,040 --> 00:07:59,720 by the way, not have any debate on the action. 110 00:07:59,839 --> 00:08:03,120 Just do what you want them to do. But we 111 00:08:03,199 --> 00:08:07,240 don't agree on the actions because there was a whole 112 00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:11,600 there's a whole bunch of stuff that could be done, 113 00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:13,360 but you don't want to do what we want done, 114 00:08:13,439 --> 00:08:15,839 and we don't want to do what you want done. See, 115 00:08:16,519 --> 00:08:21,800 and so where do we go? What do we do? 116 00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:28,879 Tulci Gabbard responded to Posaki. She said, those who criticized 117 00:08:29,279 --> 00:08:32,559 like Pisaki and the mayor of Minneapolis, Jacob Free or 118 00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:35,600 Frey or Fry or whatever his name is, who criticized 119 00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:38,360 prayers in the wake of the Minneapolis tragedy, are expressing 120 00:08:38,399 --> 00:08:42,679 the same anti God sentiment that motivated the shooter. He 121 00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:46,159 aimed his wrath at God by trying to stop people 122 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:50,440 with his bullets from praying to God. Now is the 123 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:52,679 time for us to come together and join hands in 124 00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:55,799 prayer for the children who were killed, they're loved ones, 125 00:08:56,000 --> 00:09:01,360 and those who survived this horrific shooting. There's a reason 126 00:09:01,399 --> 00:09:06,840 people target children, right, They're innocent. 127 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 3: Right. 128 00:09:08,279 --> 00:09:10,919 Speaker 1: It's the thing that hurts God the most, and that's 129 00:09:10,919 --> 00:09:16,200 what they're trying to destroy. So, yes, evil exists, all right. 130 00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:18,080 If you're listening to this show, you know I try 131 00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:19,840 to keep up with all sorts of current events, and 132 00:09:19,879 --> 00:09:21,960 I know you do too, And you've probably heard me 133 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:26,200 say get your news from multiple sources. Why Well, because 134 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:28,919 it's how you detect media bias, which is why I've 135 00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:32,279 been so impressed with ground News. It's an app and 136 00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:35,399 it's a website and it combines news from around the 137 00:09:35,399 --> 00:09:38,120 world in one place so you can compare coverage and 138 00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:42,039 verify information.

I started using ground News a few 141 00:09:48,639 --> 00:09:51,360 months ago and more recently chose to work with them 142 00:09:51,399 --> 00:09:54,159 as an affiliate because it lets me see clearly how 143 00:09:54,279 --> 00:09:57,679 stories get covered and by whom. The blind spot feature 144 00:09:57,759 --> 00:10:00,440 shows you which stories get ignored by the less and 145 00:10:00,519 --> 00:10:04,519 the right. See for yourself.

I didn't make the name. 177 00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:58,559 Very interested in what the parents had to do with 178 00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:01,320 his mental health. Since the evident shows that a parent 179 00:12:01,519 --> 00:12:05,519 aided in his underage name change. I hope that is explored, 180 00:12:05,559 --> 00:12:07,799 but we probably won't hear much about that angle at all. 181 00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:10,720 Didn't his mom work at the school she did? Was 182 00:12:10,759 --> 00:12:13,159 it a cry for help towards her? Just speculating I 183 00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:17,679 don't know she did. She did work at the school. 184 00:12:17,759 --> 00:12:21,120 I think she was a secretary at the school that 185 00:12:21,159 --> 00:12:25,279 the shooter attacked. He attended that school, graduating to K 186 00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:29,080 through eight school. So he graduated from that school and 187 00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:32,559 then went on to public high school. And she signed 188 00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:37,159 off on the request with the state to legally change 189 00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:41,919 his name as part of a transition, which he then 190 00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:45,600 in his journals and his YouTube videos, he talks about 191 00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:51,480 that he regretted that and he doesn't want to doesn't 192 00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:54,360 want to be a girl, and he said he felt brainwashed. 193 00:12:57,159 --> 00:13:04,360 The response from Democrats is expected, although they are almost 194 00:13:04,639 --> 00:13:12,279 gleefully piggybacking onto the fact that the kids who were 195 00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:17,559 murdered and attacked were praying in a church, and so 196 00:13:17,639 --> 00:13:20,799 they're using this as some sort of a marketing hook 197 00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:23,919 for their line of thoughts and prayers are not enough, 198 00:13:24,559 --> 00:13:27,200 which they've been saying after school shootings and mass shootings. 199 00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:30,799 They've been saying that for years, but with this case, 200 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:35,080 it's like, oh, get it, they were literally praying at 201 00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:40,759 the time. Enough with your thoughts and prayers. I mean, 202 00:13:40,759 --> 00:13:47,039 it's just it's antagonistic, it's unnecessarily antagonistic. They think this 203 00:13:47,159 --> 00:13:49,759 is a they think it's a good hook. That's what's 204 00:13:49,759 --> 00:13:52,720 really amazing about it. They think this is going to 205 00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:58,279 work somehow. Let me get Liz on here. Hello, Liz, 206 00:13:58,320 --> 00:13:59,039 welcome to the show. 207 00:14:00,159 --> 00:14:06,240 Speaker 4: Thank you. There's a lot going on in the media 208 00:14:06,279 --> 00:14:10,440 and the perspective of this, And as I've been listening 209 00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:14,799 to different reports across the last year and a half 210 00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:20,879 about all kinds of topics, obviously, I think that what's 211 00:14:21,039 --> 00:14:28,200 not happening in our culture is conversation. Right, Like, everybody's 212 00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:31,320 got their opinion, and their opinion is what they're standing on, 213 00:14:31,879 --> 00:14:37,240 and there's no conversation to evaluate the validity or the 214 00:14:37,399 --> 00:14:41,960 practicality or even if it makes sense. And I think 215 00:14:42,039 --> 00:14:46,240 if children, and I'm not necessarily children praying, but in 216 00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:55,799 school had more diverse conversations about life and choices and 217 00:14:55,879 --> 00:15:00,480 all that kind of thing, there being more permission to 218 00:15:00,519 --> 00:15:07,919 be wrong and evaluate your perspective and maybe change your mind. 219 00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:10,519 Speaker 1: Yeah. So well, yeah, I mean, and here's the thing. 220 00:15:10,559 --> 00:15:12,720 You don't know your own position unless you know what 221 00:15:12,759 --> 00:15:15,720 your opponent's position is. And as far as like a 222 00:15:15,759 --> 00:15:18,840 debate or an argument, but to your point, you know, 223 00:15:18,879 --> 00:15:24,279 a conversation is more than just throwing out your talking point. 224 00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:28,360 I mean that's not a conversation, right, that's yes, that's pointless. 225 00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:33,000 Speaker 4: Like the mayor in Chicago or wherever, that the one 226 00:15:33,039 --> 00:15:35,840 guy and he's like, oh, I don't know if more cops, 227 00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:37,480 you know, he's not going to even address whether or 228 00:15:37,519 --> 00:15:40,360 not more police officers on their streets would be helpful. 229 00:15:40,799 --> 00:15:44,879 That clips from CNN that Joe Fella. It's like, no, well, 230 00:15:44,919 --> 00:15:46,840 you're not going to talk about it, so we're just 231 00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:51,200 going to pretend like not talking about it is the answer, right, 232 00:15:51,639 --> 00:15:55,200 And so that puts politicians in a like right now, 233 00:15:55,279 --> 00:15:58,600 it seems to me like they all are in their 234 00:15:58,639 --> 00:16:02,480 position and they can't move off their position to look 235 00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:05,879 bad or be wrong, and so we've got the same 236 00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:08,080 cycle just repeating. 237 00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:13,120 Speaker 1: And well, yeah, so I think this is why I 238 00:16:13,159 --> 00:16:17,080 am encouraged by the rise of the digital media content 239 00:16:17,559 --> 00:16:22,279 because if you want to hear actual conversations with between 240 00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:25,799 people that disagree on stuff, you know, you can go 241 00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:30,559 to YouTube and see so you can find all sorts 242 00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:35,559 of actual discussions and debates and conversations about important subjects 243 00:16:35,559 --> 00:16:39,120 and controversial subjects. It's a good thing that's not happening 244 00:16:40,039 --> 00:16:43,559 on your mainstream legacy media channels, Liz, I do appreciate 245 00:16:43,559 --> 00:16:45,840 the call. Have a great weekend. Yeah, take care. No, 246 00:16:45,879 --> 00:16:50,039 it's a great point. Well, I'll tell a story when 247 00:16:50,039 --> 00:16:52,200 I come back. I'll tell a story about a conversation 248 00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:55,559 I had that people didn't want me to have. Okay, 249 00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:58,320 all right, you hear me talk a lot about incentives, right, Well, 250 00:16:58,440 --> 00:17:01,879 let's talk about incentive trips, the kind that companies offer 251 00:17:01,919 --> 00:17:05,160 employees to fire them up and reward their teams. If 252 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:07,319 you own a business or you work somewhere that offers 253 00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:10,359 these incentive trips, first off, good for you, but also 254 00:17:10,599 --> 00:17:12,960 there is a custom app that's a game changer for 255 00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:17,880 these trips. It's called Incentive Tripkit. Private group messaging, shared photos, 256 00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:21,799 your itinerary, travel details, all built into a single, easy 257 00:17:21,839 --> 00:17:25,000 to use app. There's even a traveler locator so Carl 258 00:17:25,039 --> 00:17:27,880 from Accounting doesn't get left behind. The best part about 259 00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:31,799 Incentive trip Kit it's totally private. No email captures, no 260 00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:36,200 sign ups, no cringe ads. It's simple, clean and secure, 261 00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:39,279 and when the trip is over, Incentive trip Kit turns 262 00:17:39,319 --> 00:17:43,240 those highlights into a professional storytelling video. So think about it. 263 00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:47,039 When you launch next year's incentive trip campaign, that video 264 00:17:47,079 --> 00:17:50,720 becomes your greatest motivator. Talk about a return on investment. Right, 265 00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:54,160 you got to check out incentive trip kit for your business. 266 00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:58,200 Visit incentive tripkit dot com because great trips deserve even 267 00:17:58,279 --> 00:18:03,119 better returns. Before the break, I mentioned a conversation that 268 00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:07,160 people didn't want me to have. I will protect all 269 00:18:07,240 --> 00:18:10,359 names and relationships to protect the innocent, but let's just 270 00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:15,240 say there was a young person that is in college 271 00:18:15,319 --> 00:18:21,240 now and is on the left, and her parents are 272 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:26,799 liberals as well, and any time any kind of political 273 00:18:26,839 --> 00:18:30,519 topic would come up, there's the parents would always kind 274 00:18:30,559 --> 00:18:34,119 of like, you know, shut it down. We're not talking politics, no, no, no, whatever. 275 00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:37,680 So I can't ever have any conversation, and I don't 276 00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:40,559 ever prompt the conversations. I'm not the kind of person 277 00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:43,200 that when I'm out at an event or whatever. In 278 00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:46,680 you know, real life, I'm moving through the world, and 279 00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:51,079 I'm not the one that starts the conversations. But when 280 00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:53,279 people find out what I do, they want to talk 281 00:18:53,319 --> 00:18:56,920 with me about politics and philosophy, current events and stuff 282 00:18:56,920 --> 00:19:02,119 like that. Like it's like if your family member was 283 00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:05,000 a doctor, you know, like the doctor's not going to 284 00:19:05,319 --> 00:19:08,480 start talking about their procedures that they're they were doing, 285 00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:12,319 but you know, everybody else starts asking for diagnoses, you know, 286 00:19:13,039 --> 00:19:18,640 so it's sort of like that. Well, recently I was 287 00:19:19,839 --> 00:19:25,880 visiting and I had time with this with this young 288 00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:30,519 college student and we engaged in like an hour long 289 00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:35,000 conversation and there was some hovering from the parents to 290 00:19:35,039 --> 00:19:37,000 make sure it all went okay whatever, But it was 291 00:19:37,039 --> 00:19:46,960 just a conversation because she's not exposed to any alternative thoughts. Right, 292 00:19:47,039 --> 00:19:51,160 the fish doesn't know it's wet, and so she has 293 00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:54,519 the bumper sticker slogans committed to memory, right, that's been 294 00:19:54,599 --> 00:19:57,400 drilled into her, and so she just wants to say 295 00:19:57,440 --> 00:20:00,279 these things and she doesn't understand first of all, what 296 00:20:00,319 --> 00:20:04,079 they mean in totality, but also more importantly, doesn't understand 297 00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:07,279 what the counter argument is. And so I would just, 298 00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:11,240 you know, not argue with her, but have a conversation 299 00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:16,079 to the previous caller's point. And she's in college and 300 00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:20,519 that's the first time that she was able to engage 301 00:20:20,599 --> 00:20:27,279 in that kind of a conversation. She's surrounded by everybody 302 00:20:27,279 --> 00:20:30,039 that's come through the same K twelve system, and they 303 00:20:30,079 --> 00:20:34,000 are all agree. So I agree, I think there does 304 00:20:34,079 --> 00:20:40,319 need to be more conversations like that message from Russ, 305 00:20:40,319 --> 00:20:42,960 who says Sharon brought up an interview she saw with 306 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:46,680 a Columbine teacher about prayer. He was challenged about prayer 307 00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:49,640 not saving lives that day, and he responded by saying 308 00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:53,640 it absolutely worked. The shooter's plan was to set off 309 00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:56,359 bombs and then pick off survivors as they came out 310 00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:58,599 to kill every single person in the school. He believed 311 00:20:58,599 --> 00:21:02,720 they failed because of prayer. Thoughts and prayers don't work 312 00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:05,839 quote unquote is connected to the whole fish doesn't know 313 00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:08,480 it's wet, as well as the unchallenged. Ideas are easy 314 00:21:08,519 --> 00:21:12,440 to hold. When people say that they it shows that 315 00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:19,079 they are in siloed circles amongst people who do not 316 00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:23,680 have a serious faith. They think everybody has the same 317 00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:27,680 skepticism or disdain for faith that they do, so they 318 00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:30,400 think it's a winning slogan. I think you're exactly right. 319 00:21:32,759 --> 00:21:38,799 So the Vice President JD. Vance says, it's shocking to me. Actually, 320 00:21:38,799 --> 00:21:40,920 hang on, yeah, I got time. It's shocking to me 321 00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:45,799 that left wing politicians attack the idea of prayer in 322 00:21:45,839 --> 00:21:49,680 response to a tragedy. Literally, no one thinks prayer is 323 00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:54,039 a substitute for action. We pray because our hearts are 324 00:21:54,079 --> 00:21:59,319 broken and we believe God is listening. Right, So the 325 00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:03,279 former Why House Press Secretary Jen Circle back Pisaki. She 326 00:22:03,480 --> 00:22:06,720 was on MSNBC as she is now regularly with her show, 327 00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:09,759 and she responds very emotionally here. 328 00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:12,440 Speaker 3: And all they should be hoping to do is have 329 00:22:12,559 --> 00:22:14,640 someone to sit with at lunch or someone to play 330 00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:17,880 with on the playground, and they should be waiting to 331 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:20,920 hear an update when they get home. And that is 332 00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:24,799 not what these parents of the school experience today. Sorry, 333 00:22:24,799 --> 00:22:27,680 this is a tough one. Having her child killed while 334 00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:29,640 they are sitting in a pube for a morning prayer 335 00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:32,359 service is not what any parents should have to worry about. 336 00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:35,599 And I have felt a mixture of anger and a 337 00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:38,839 lot of anger and emotional exhaustion about this today is 338 00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:41,039 I'm sure many of you have, because we have been 339 00:22:41,079 --> 00:22:46,119 here so many times, so many times, and yet again, 340 00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:49,480 like clockwork, half of the politicians in our country have 341 00:22:49,559 --> 00:22:52,160 little more to offer than thoughts and prayers. That is 342 00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:55,400 all they are offering us. All join all of us 343 00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:57,960 in praying for the victims. Was Vice President Jannie Vance's 344 00:22:58,000 --> 00:22:59,400 response today. That's what he said. 345 00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:00,160 Speaker 1: That's it. 346 00:23:00,519 --> 00:23:03,160 Speaker 3: Please join me in praying for everyone involved, Trump wrote, 347 00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:07,160 we have seen this play out over and over again. 348 00:23:07,279 --> 00:23:09,880 There is a shooting, then come the thoughts and prayers, 349 00:23:10,319 --> 00:23:12,680 and then comes the attempt to shift the focus. This 350 00:23:12,720 --> 00:23:15,519 is what always happens. You're going to start seeing narratives. 351 00:23:15,519 --> 00:23:17,799 You're already seeing them. They're already out there about how 352 00:23:17,799 --> 00:23:20,119 the shooter was trans. You're going to see narratives about 353 00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:22,200 how the shooter appeared to be anti Trump and anti 354 00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:25,000 Semitic and clearly was in the midst of a mental 355 00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:28,680 health crisis, there's no question about that. But here's the thing. 356 00:23:29,799 --> 00:23:32,720 There are trans people all over the world. They're anti 357 00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:36,359 Semitic people, unfortunately, all over the world, and people filled 358 00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:40,160 with plenty of political hate all over the world. And 359 00:23:40,279 --> 00:23:42,920 mental health issues are not unique to the United States, 360 00:23:42,920 --> 00:23:45,359 and yes, we should do more to address them, but 361 00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:48,480 it's also an issue all over the world. But this 362 00:23:48,599 --> 00:23:51,200 is the only country where shootings like this this would 363 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:53,759 happened this often. The United States not only has the 364 00:23:53,839 --> 00:23:56,440 highest rate of gun violence of any country in the world, 365 00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:59,440 it's become a leading cause of death for young people 366 00:23:59,519 --> 00:24:03,319 and teen in this country. That should make everybody angry. 367 00:24:04,319 --> 00:24:07,480 Weaponizing the shooter's identity is meant to distract from what matters. 368 00:24:07,599 --> 00:24:09,480 That is what they are doing, trying to distract from 369 00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:13,559 what matters. Here's what matters today' shooter bought the rifle, handgun, 370 00:24:13,599 --> 00:24:16,000 and shotgun they used to do what they did today. Legally, 371 00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:18,519 we live in a country with more guns than people, 372 00:24:18,559 --> 00:24:21,039 where there are not universal background checks, they're not bands 373 00:24:21,079 --> 00:24:23,359 on assault weapons, and it is far too easy to 374 00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:25,960 buy a gun. It's the guns everyone, It's not really 375 00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:26,519 a secret. 376 00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:30,039 Speaker 1: Okay, So much wrong with her stayment. There so much 377 00:24:30,079 --> 00:24:33,640 wrong this stat that the left has been using about 378 00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:39,079 the leading cause of death among children. I've broken this 379 00:24:40,079 --> 00:24:44,559 fake data down repeatedly since it came out. It has 380 00:24:44,599 --> 00:24:47,880 to do with the way the CDC collects the information 381 00:24:48,079 --> 00:24:51,279 and what they rule out, and what they rule in. Suicide, 382 00:24:51,319 --> 00:24:55,160 for example, is included in that number. Also, eighteen year olds, 383 00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:58,680 nineteen year olds are included in that number, and the 384 00:24:58,759 --> 00:25:03,359 vast majority of it is gang violence. That's most of 385 00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:06,400 it gang violence. But they use this kind of a shooting, 386 00:25:07,240 --> 00:25:13,279 which is super rare, in order to advance what gun confiscation. 387 00:25:14,279 --> 00:25:17,680 That's what they want. Which again, if this is what 388 00:25:17,759 --> 00:25:22,640 you want, then you have to do two things. Number one, 389 00:25:22,799 --> 00:25:28,240 you need to propose a constitutional amendment to repeal the 390 00:25:28,279 --> 00:25:34,240 Second Amendment. That's first, because that's the law. So there 391 00:25:34,319 --> 00:25:36,240 is a way to amend that, and you should go 392 00:25:36,279 --> 00:25:40,720 ahead and start that process. Number one. Number two, you 393 00:25:40,799 --> 00:25:42,680 need to tell me how you're going to get all 394 00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:47,200 the guns, not most, not some, all of them. How 395 00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:49,839 are you going to get them all? Are you going 396 00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:53,839 to go kick indoors and take people's firearms? Because you 397 00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:57,240 know what happens when you try to do that. Those 398 00:25:57,279 --> 00:25:59,920 people that you're kicking the door in on they've got guns. 399 00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:03,920 That's why you're there. They want their guns. They believe 400 00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:05,839 it's their god given right to protect themselves from the 401 00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:07,599 kinds of people that are kicking in their doors to 402 00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:12,160 take their weapons. You're gonna have a whole lot more 403 00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:16,000 gun deaths, a whole lot more, if not an outright 404 00:26:16,039 --> 00:26:20,079 civil war. So i'd like to hear your plan. Two things. 405 00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:23,079 Here's a great idea. How about making an escape to 406 00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:26,599 a really special and secluded getaway in western North Carolina? 407 00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:28,880 Just a quick drive up the mountain and cabins of 408 00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:33,279 Asheville is your connection.

Do do do you do? 429 00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:40,720 Speaker 3: Do you? Uh? 430 00:27:40,759 --> 00:27:42,599 Speaker 1: Wow? Okay, so I gotta scroll back up a little bit. 431 00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:42,960 Speaker 3: Sorry. 432 00:27:44,279 --> 00:27:48,400 Speaker 1: This is from ATO three, anonymous area code ATO three. 433 00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:51,119 I don't like that we are retreating into our schools 434 00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:53,920 with lock doors and cops. That's what the losing side 435 00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:57,039 does in a battle or war. All of these shooters, 436 00:27:57,160 --> 00:28:00,279 that's not necessarily true. All of these shooters are known 437 00:28:00,279 --> 00:28:02,839 to have mental issues before they kill. Their parents should 438 00:28:02,839 --> 00:28:06,799 be held responsible. This is from Tennessee in number The 439 00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:09,680 answer is for people to get closer to God, to 440 00:28:09,759 --> 00:28:12,359 our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, to be in the 441 00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:15,599 Word and to pray, and to follow the Lord's command 442 00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:17,359 to love each other in the same way that he 443 00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:22,839 loves us. Steve from Charlotte, Evil is anything aside from 444 00:28:22,920 --> 00:28:28,880 Christ's sacrifice, don says Pete. No one who believes in 445 00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:31,640 God believe that thoughts and prayers are going to fix 446 00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:34,519 the problem. I do propose, however, a different type of prayer, 447 00:28:34,519 --> 00:28:36,440 and that's the prayer that the people that are mentally 448 00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:39,680 ill are healed, and that would do more than any 449 00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:42,640 other amount of gun control. That could exist. Perhaps that's 450 00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:45,519 what the Democrats could be talking about, is praying for 451 00:28:45,599 --> 00:28:53,000 those that have the hatred. Those mocking God's children are 452 00:28:53,039 --> 00:28:56,880 hea then spawn in need of prayer, says Bob john 453 00:28:56,920 --> 00:29:00,319 from Jersey says. The people who disdain prayer publicly are 454 00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:04,359 just evangelical atheists who are every bit as tedious as 455 00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:10,160 religious zelots. South Carolina Number says there is no gun crisis. 456 00:29:10,359 --> 00:29:14,079 There is a crazy people walking around freely problem and 457 00:29:15,079 --> 00:29:19,960 pet these these people who are mocking prayer and don't 458 00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:23,799 believe in it or completely without hope in this world 459 00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:30,039 or what comes next. Universal background checks is an insidious 460 00:29:30,039 --> 00:29:36,680 buzz term aka backdoor registration. Nobody's a bigger fan of 461 00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:39,240 gun confiscation than the cartels. If guns are banned, the 462 00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:41,839 cartels will become the world's largest arms dealers. It will 463 00:29:42,279 --> 00:29:44,839 more than replace the profits they lost when POTT was 464 00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:49,319 legalized in half of America. All right, so let me 465 00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:53,160 play for you. This is Caroline Levitt, the White House 466 00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:56,400 Press secretary, responding to jen Psaki's comments. 467 00:29:56,519 --> 00:29:57,440 Speaker 2: I have two questions for you. 468 00:29:57,759 --> 00:30:01,440 Speaker 4: Are Democrats, including former White House presh Sary Jenzaki and 469 00:30:01,599 --> 00:30:05,720 Minneapolis Jacob Ray attacked Prairie pushed to gun control in 470 00:30:05,759 --> 00:30:09,240 the aftermath of yesterday's shooting. What's the White House's response 471 00:30:09,359 --> 00:30:10,079 to their comments. 472 00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:14,279 Speaker 5: Yes, I saw the comments of my predecessor, Miss Saki, 473 00:30:14,599 --> 00:30:20,279 and frankly, I think they're incredibly insensitive and disrespectful to 474 00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:23,599 the tens of millions of Americans of faith across this 475 00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:26,960 country who believe in the power of prayer, who believe 476 00:30:27,039 --> 00:30:29,400 that prayer works, and who believe that in a time 477 00:30:29,440 --> 00:30:32,880 of morning like this, when beautiful young children were killed 478 00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:41,119 while praying in a church, it's utterly disrespectful to deride 479 00:30:41,359 --> 00:30:44,440 the power of prayer in this country, and it's disrespectful 480 00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:46,920 to the millions of Americans of faith. And I would 481 00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:51,279 encourage Miss Saki to pray for these families themselves, who 482 00:30:51,319 --> 00:30:53,759 need it right now more than ever, and who. 483 00:30:53,599 --> 00:30:58,720 Speaker 1: Have asked for them. They've asked for prayer. There is 484 00:30:58,759 --> 00:31:02,279 a writer at Newsweek bought to ya Ungar Sargon, and 485 00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:04,960 she was on Chris Cuomo's show. Yes, he has a 486 00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:09,759 show on news Nation, and I thought she nails this perfectly. 487 00:31:10,279 --> 00:31:13,799 Speaker 6: I think it's really important for people to understand why 488 00:31:14,079 --> 00:31:19,119 people on the right got so upset by the Democrats response. 489 00:31:20,319 --> 00:31:23,440 What happened was a person who seems to be a 490 00:31:23,599 --> 00:31:31,599 trans person murdered praying Catholics, and the Democrat's response was 491 00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:38,839 to rush to attack prayer and then defend the trans community. 492 00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:44,559 So there was a reversal of the victim and the perpetrator, which, 493 00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:47,799 by the way, was exactly what the shooter had written 494 00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:51,200 on his guns. He wrote where is your God? And 495 00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:53,279 that was what a lot of people on the right 496 00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:57,319 heard when Democrat after Democrat after democrat came out and 497 00:31:57,359 --> 00:32:01,680 said prayers are not enough. Those children were literally praying. 498 00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:06,839 They associated the victims of this horrific act with their 499 00:32:06,920 --> 00:32:11,519 political enemies and ran to the defense of who they 500 00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:15,000 thought the killer was and the community they believed he 501 00:32:15,119 --> 00:32:18,519 came from, so much so that they wouldn't even identify 502 00:32:18,599 --> 00:32:22,400 him as trans because they didn't want to besmirch what 503 00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:26,440 they view as a protected category. And this is unbelievably 504 00:32:26,799 --> 00:32:31,480 hurtful and offensive and pathological Chris, especially in a moment 505 00:32:31,519 --> 00:32:32,920 when a community is mourning. 506 00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:40,720 Speaker 1: Bingo, she mentioned reverse victim and defender. That's the RVO 507 00:32:41,079 --> 00:32:44,680 in the acronym darvo. You hear me talk about it often. 508 00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:49,799 This is what narcissists use. Psychopaths sociopaths. They use this 509 00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:55,599 as well as empathy. They use your empathy against you 510 00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:58,160 to get what they want. They don't have empathy, they 511 00:32:58,200 --> 00:33:02,319 cannot feel it. Use yours though, because that's what they do, 512 00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:09,240 so darvo it's a manipulation tactic. It stands for deny attack, 513 00:33:10,119 --> 00:33:14,079 reverse victim and offender. So when you are the perpetrator 514 00:33:14,119 --> 00:33:20,480 of an abuse, sometimes institutions do this as well. You 515 00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:26,119 use this pattern to shift blame, to avoid responsibility for 516 00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:30,200 your own actions, and then to try to discredit the victim. 517 00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:34,680 So the abuser first denies what they did, then they 518 00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:38,279 will attack the person who is holding them accountable, and 519 00:33:38,319 --> 00:33:41,799 then finally reverse the roles by portraying themselves as the 520 00:33:41,839 --> 00:33:47,720 true victim and the original victim as the offender, reverse 521 00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:52,119 victim and offender. Darvo I talked about this also with 522 00:33:52,319 --> 00:33:57,799 the situation in Gaza. It's the same thing. This is 523 00:33:57,839 --> 00:34:02,640 the same. Once you see this pattern, you can spot it, 524 00:34:02,640 --> 00:34:10,039 immediately deny, attack, and then reverse victim and offender. Another 525 00:34:10,079 --> 00:34:14,719 way to look at it is every accusation is a confession, right, 526 00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:17,480 It's another way to look at it. When Jensaki is 527 00:34:17,559 --> 00:34:21,800 up there saying that the Republicans half of the political 528 00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:24,840 leadership that they're all trying to distract away from the 529 00:34:24,840 --> 00:34:28,320 gun issue. Again. All Republicans are happy to have the 530 00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:31,639 gun controlled debate. You know why because they are actually 531 00:34:32,840 --> 00:34:35,000 skilled at that debate because they've been having it for 532 00:34:35,039 --> 00:34:37,280 so long in trying to push back on all your 533 00:34:37,280 --> 00:34:40,079 efforts to take the guns. They're happy to have the debate. 534 00:34:40,639 --> 00:34:43,400 They just don't want to agree with your proposed solutions 535 00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:48,159 because they disagree. All right, that'll do it for this episode. 536 00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:50,320 Thank you so much for listening. I could not do 537 00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:52,519 the show without your support and the support of the 538 00:34:52,519 --> 00:34:55,559 businesses that advertise on the podcast, so if you'd like, 539 00:34:55,719 --> 00:34:57,800 please support them too and tell them you heard it here. 540 00:34:57,960 --> 00:35:00,039 You can also become a patron at my patreon on 541 00:35:00,159 --> 00:35:04,079 page or go to thepetecalanarshow dot com.
