  Speaker 1: Hey, Mark?
• 0:22
  Speaker 3: How are you?
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: As far as you know? This guy fighting the police
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: and fighting arrest.
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and Stewart is a longtime law enforcement officer. The
• 0:32
  Speaker 2: video of those cops are trying to arrest the guy, Well,
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: what about they keep punching him. Are you supposed to
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: be punching somebody as a cop.
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: If he is resisting arrest, you don't know what he's
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: going to do. You know. People say, well, you know
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: he didn't have a gun, he's unarmed. If you have
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: hands and the feet, you are armed. Many people have
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: been killed with people's hands. And if this guy is innocent,
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: then just stop and let the criminal case run its course.
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: Know and prove that you are not guilty. And if
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: the guy's a security guard, he knows better. But when
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: you are fighting somebody on the street, you have no clue.
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: You know what they are capable of and injuring yourself,
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: you know, or killing you. I had gotten on in
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: fights on I ninety five when I used to run
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: traffic there and back in those days in the South,
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: tractor trackers would stop and help me. I mean it
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: happened to me many times. I would be by myself
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: fighting on ninety five stopped.
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: Well, I'm asking you. I'm not saying these cops are wrong.
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: You got to get the guy in, but is there
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: some kind of like choke hold and this kind of
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: hold where you get the guy in the hold instead
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: of just punching, punching, punch that.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: Remember, yeah, Penny used to choke hold and look what
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: happened to him, and look what happened to the victim.
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: So it's damned if you do, Mark, and damned if
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: you don't. You know, what are these guys going to do?
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: Until you walk into the shoes of an officer and
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: trying to arrest someone who may possibly be very dangerous,
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: You've got to do what you have to do. I mean,
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: the officers didn't make this guy resist, they didn't make
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: him fight. You know, he took that on his own.
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: So the officers have to do whatever they have to
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: do to stop this guy.
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: Okay, but what about one of those in the movie
• 2:11
  Speaker 2: Casino Robert DeNiro, one of those stun gun things that
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: just touch them and he falls, and you.
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: Know, if these were I don't know what New York
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: City that I know the uniform officers carry stunt guns.
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: But a lot of times these people that it doesn't matter,
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: it doesn't affect them. It depends on if they're on
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: drugs or they're so you know, ramped up. I've seen
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: people get get us stung with these things and it
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: didn't affect them whatsoever. They just pulled the probes out
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: and kept fighting. You don't know.
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, great call Stuart, thanks for calling. Let's

• 2:47
  Speaker 4: Hi? How are you? Mark? I love the show.
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: Thanks.
• 2:50
  Speaker 4: I have a question. I've heard a rumor about this
• 2:54
  Speaker 4: six point two billion dollars that was transferred to an
• 2:58
  Speaker 4: offshore account the head of Homeland Security, and I wanted
• 3:02
  Speaker 4: to know if it was a rumor or. I looked
• 3:06
  Speaker 4: it up on snops and they say that it's unfounded.
• 3:09
  Speaker 4: But there's also a YouTube video that.
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: Shows uh oh, there's a YouTube video it must be true.
• 3:16
  Speaker 4: Oh well is that ai? Also No, But.
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: Any idiot can put up a YouTube video and claim anything. Now,
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: don't don't, don't, don't get tangled up in all these
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: internet rumors. Just ignore it. Okay, all right, thanks for calling.
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: Let's go to Joel in Florida. Joel, how you doing,
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: good morning.
• 3:35
  Speaker 5: More, just a question for you. Justice Alito apparently is
• 3:38
  Speaker 5: going to be leaving the Supreme Court. Now, a question
• 3:42
  Speaker 5: I have for you with the three individuals that the
• 3:45
  Speaker 5: President Trump did put on the Supreme Court, what are
• 3:47
  Speaker 5: your opinions on what they have accomplished since they've been
• 3:50
  Speaker 5: on the Supreme Court.
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: Well, it's a very good question. This happens all the time.
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: When you're a conservative. You point a conservative to the
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: Supreme Court, and then he gives you all these liberal
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: rulings and a million things. It's happened the other way too,
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: where uh liberal president appoints a liberal all of a
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: sudden he's given conservative rulings. You never know. Once again,
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: on the Supreme Court, they'll be okay for the first
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: year or two, then they go completely completely off the rails.
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: It happens all the time. Not much a president can
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: do about that. Let's go to Bonnie and Tom's River Bonnie,
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: how you doing?
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: Hi?
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: More?
• 4:24
  Speaker 4: I heard on.
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: Yep, where you go? Mark?
• 4:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yep.
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: Your phone's cutting out.
• 4:34
  Speaker 4: Better now I can hear you. He said that if
• 4:38
  Speaker 4: he goes down.
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: Up, you're gonna have to call us back, keeps cutting
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: out Tom's River phone service. There. Oh, let's go to
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: Vincent and Brooklyn Vincent, how you doing?
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: Good morning, Mark, Good morning Mark. This is not a
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: judgment call. But that guy who was tussling with the
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: cops in in the liquor store in the Delhi he's
• 4:59
  Speaker 3: a millionaire. They're not. This is not even going to
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: go to court. The city's lawyers are going to see that.
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: And if he goes to court, the guy's gonna get
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: twenty thirty million dollars. He's this is gonna be settled
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: out of court. The guy's a millionaire. Because the visuals
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: look really bad, I don't get you know, that's my opinion.
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: I'm watching a year from now, I'll be right, okay,
• 5:23
  Speaker 3: As far as Mandami cost them thirty million dollars to
• 5:27
  Speaker 3: set up one of these supermarkets. A number of years ago,
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: I helped a friend set up a gourmet ice cream store.
• 5:35
  Speaker 3: And there was a company in the Bronx that was
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: producing this really really high quality, high butter fat ice cream,
• 5:44
  Speaker 3: gourmet ice cream, and he made a deal with them.
• 5:47
  Speaker 3: They supplied all the refrigerator cases in this store, the
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: refrigerators and the freezers, as long as he used their products. Now,
• 5:58
  Speaker 3: in a supermarket, your biggest expense is what's the places
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: laid out? Architecturally speaking, your biggest expenses are the freezer cases,
• 6:09
  Speaker 3: in the refrigerated cases. Because usually yeah, but we know
• 6:12
  Speaker 3: the whole store.
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: We know from all the top supermarket companies, the cost
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: of putting together a whole supermarket is one million to
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: three million at the most.
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: Exactly my point. So why does he need thirty million dollars?
• 6:24
  Speaker 3: What is it so he could hand it out to
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: his friends or a little crony.
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: I think you're right. I think you're right, Vincent. Great call,
• 6:32
