Speaker 1: The news, opinions, commentary, and interviews you need to start
0:06
Speaker 1: your day. You're listening to The West Carrol Morning Show.
0:11
Speaker 2: Tuesday morning, sixteenth day of September. I'm wes, thanks for
0:15
Speaker 2: joining me. Been a heavy couple shows. I know. I
0:19
Speaker 2: know those of you who reached out to me yesterday
0:23
Speaker 2: to check on me. I'm okay. Just a heavy period
0:27
Speaker 2: of time that we're all going through, or many of
0:31
Speaker 2: us are going through. I don't know. Some seem to
0:34
Speaker 2: have already moved on from all of it, and I
0:36
Speaker 2: guess I'm a little jealous of that to some degree.
0:39
Speaker 2: But also that's a little concerning. But I know, life
0:43
Speaker 2: goes on and we can't all sit there and focus
0:45
Speaker 2: and twell and everything that happens in the world. It
0:50
Speaker 2: just we can't. It's one of the things that I've
0:53
Speaker 2: struggled with the number of times when we've had a
0:57
Speaker 2: school shooting, an incident that happens, it obviously has an
1:02
Speaker 2: impact on a large number of people. In any case,
1:05
Speaker 2: whether it's not necessarily a school shooting, someone gets stabbed
1:08
Speaker 2: on a subway, these kinds of things happen and they
1:12
Speaker 2: have a great impact on all of us. It's something
1:15
Speaker 2: that we carry around with us. It's something that's going
1:18
Speaker 2: to ultimately become a part of us, as it's part
1:23
Speaker 2: of this story that we're telling in this era of America,
1:26
Speaker 2: and many of us continue to be frustrated with the
1:30
Speaker 2: number of time we have these incidents, and sadly, the
1:34
Speaker 2: political divide tells us that you either support removing guns
1:40
Speaker 2: from the country coast to coast, or you're for these
1:44
Speaker 2: sorts of violent incidents. And it's just simply not true.
1:50
Speaker 2: And you can't say that while there weren't enough people
1:53
Speaker 2: speaking up about the school shooting that happened at the
1:58
Speaker 2: same time as the Charlie Kirk murder, and the reality is,
2:01
Speaker 2: I don't know of a single person anywhere anywhere that
2:06
Speaker 2: has advocated for that shooting, that celebrated that shooting, that
2:12
Speaker 2: you know, went on social media and made any sort
2:14
Speaker 2: of a positive comment about it. I think you're going
2:18
Speaker 2: to have a hard time going back at any point
2:20
Speaker 2: in recent history and finding anything other than discussed and
2:26
Speaker 2: contempt for people who have committed these crimes. Go back
2:30
Speaker 2: to Columbine. I mean, maybe you have the isolated person
2:36
Speaker 2: who is you know, the anarchists that wants these kinds
2:41
Speaker 2: of things to happen, but you're not getting decent, civilized
2:44
Speaker 2: citizens that are, you know, publicly, especially going out and
2:49
Speaker 2: putting their jobs on the line supporting it. I told
2:53
Speaker 2: you yesterday, it's easier for me to process sadly ranged
3:00
Speaker 2: people doing horrible things than it is for me to
3:05
Speaker 2: accept the fact that we have brothers and sisters in
3:08
Speaker 2: this country who have been celebrating and spiking the football
3:11
Speaker 2: over Charlie Kirk's assassination. Makes more sense to me someone
3:18
Speaker 2: is mentally unstable and does a horrible thing. Makes more
3:22
Speaker 2: sense to me that someone was radicalized by their don't
3:31
Speaker 2: their trans girlfriend because it's a tran it's a male.
3:37
Speaker 2: He had a boyfriend who was transitioning into a woman.
3:40
Speaker 2: I don't know. It was two dudes that lived together,
3:45
Speaker 2: one of them in the process of becoming a woman
3:47
Speaker 2: in some capacity or living as a woman, and the
3:52
Speaker 2: other because of it. I know we're trying to learn
3:56
Speaker 2: more about motives and why this guy decided that he
4:00
Speaker 2: needed to take a shot at Charlie Kirk. I got
4:06
Speaker 2: a lot of questions, I know we all do, and
4:09
Speaker 2: it's going to take time and hopefully we'll get some
4:12
Speaker 2: sort of answers I don't know that we're going to
4:13
Speaker 2: get all the answers that we want. Was this guy
4:16
Speaker 2: groomed by his trends girlfriend to was he radicalized for
4:24
Speaker 2: this mission, for this purpose? I mean, I don't know.
4:27
Speaker 2: We know that his family was very conservative and very
4:30
Speaker 2: religious and he wasn't, and that they were frustrated by
4:35
Speaker 2: the fact that they had lost him to this lover,
4:41
Speaker 2: to this girlfriend, this trands girlfriend. And we know it
4:50
Speaker 2: was something that Charlie Kirk I thought over the years,
4:53
Speaker 2: spoke with love about. I felt like he certainly made
4:57
Speaker 2: his stance on why he didn't think it was okay.
5:04
Speaker 2: But I never heard him specifically go after or hatefully
5:10
Speaker 2: speak of someone living in that. But maybe many years ago.
5:17
Speaker 2: I've heard a few people say, if you dig enough,
5:20
Speaker 2: you know, deeper in things, you see a little bit
5:22
Speaker 2: of a different Charlie Kirk. Most of us know Charlie
5:24
Speaker 2: Kirk from the past few years, where I think he
5:27
Speaker 2: was doing good things. But it's not about that, is it.
5:32
Speaker 2: It's not specifically about him for some it is for
5:36
Speaker 2: some see Charlie Kirk as this Christian martyr. Some say, well,
5:41
Speaker 2: he was too political. Martin Luther King was political. I mean,
5:47
Speaker 2: we can't just pretend, oh, that was someone who was,
5:51
Speaker 2: you know, just killed for dot dot dot. It was.
5:54
Speaker 2: There were a lot of things involved there. It wasn't
5:58
Speaker 2: for his religion specifically. I think it was closer to
6:02
Speaker 2: religion for Charlie Kirk. And a lot of people are
6:05
Speaker 2: comparing those two for different reasons, but they're different. They're
6:11
Speaker 2: very different in very different ways. But you know, you
6:14
Speaker 2: get shot because someone doesn't like what you're having to
6:18
Speaker 2: say kind of fits you in the category of a martyr.
6:23
Speaker 2: Whether everybody wants to accept it or not, it's the reality.
6:28
Speaker 2: But I know I talked a lot yesterday about the
6:32
Speaker 2: people that were celebrating this and how much frustration I
6:36
Speaker 2: have and turned a little bit of a corner. I'm
6:39
Speaker 2: going to be sad about it for a while. It's frustrating,
6:41
Speaker 2: and I know I kind of wrapped things up yesterday
6:44
Speaker 2: just by saying that I expect my friends on the
6:47
Speaker 2: left that have sense, that have a moral compass to
6:53
Speaker 2: corral and the others on the left. That's not really
6:56
Speaker 2: fair to expect them to do that, but I wish
6:58
Speaker 2: that they would. Folks on the I aren't going to
7:00
Speaker 2: be able to do it. I don't know that anybody can.
7:05
Speaker 2: I do think for the folks on the left that
7:07
Speaker 2: scream that they're anti gun but pro assassination, there's a
7:11
Speaker 2: definite flaw in that, right. There's not a clear line
7:18
Speaker 2: of logic anywhere in that. But but just sort of
7:27
Speaker 2: walking around day to day over the past few days
7:31
Speaker 2: and trying to keep myself in a constant state of
7:34
Speaker 2: prayer as I believe we're meant to be at a
7:39
Speaker 2: moment where you know, I felt like yesterday I wanted
7:44
Speaker 2: to express to you listening, and it doesn't matter which
7:47
Speaker 2: side of the aisle you're on, but to anybody who
7:50
Speaker 2: cares enough about me to tune into the show, that
7:53
Speaker 2: I love you. And I feel the need to express
7:57
Speaker 2: that to people. I think we all need to tell
7:58
Speaker 2: people in our lives that we love them, because especially
8:02
Speaker 2: if you work in a job where you say things
8:03
Speaker 2: that apparently can get you killed. And I've realized more
8:06
Speaker 2: and more that I work in that industry, that reality
8:11
Speaker 2: hit me. It's part of why I've been in this
8:14
Speaker 2: really weird place for a few of the last shows.
8:17
Speaker 2: Don't count Friday. Friday is different. But in walking around
8:24
Speaker 2: in that prayerful state, I you know, felt compelled to
8:28
Speaker 2: do that on the show yesterday, and I felt compelled
8:31
Speaker 2: to share that with a few people. But I had
8:34
Speaker 2: a moment where one of my favorite things happens, and
8:39
Speaker 2: it doesn't happen often because it's just depending on where
8:42
Speaker 2: you live. It's not an overly common occurrence. But it
8:44
Speaker 2: happened to me where I saw a praying mantis and
8:53
Speaker 2: I took that as a sign, felt like God was
8:57
Speaker 2: telling me that it's more than just you know, yes
8:59
Speaker 2: I can people, but I need to pray for them.
9:02
Speaker 2: We all do. We need to pray for each other.
9:07
Speaker 2: Pray for each other that's dealing with processing what happened.
9:12
Speaker 2: Pray for each other as we are concerned about the
9:16
Speaker 2: people in our lives that have drawn this line in
9:18
Speaker 2: the sand. Because and I think I said this yesterday,
9:21
Speaker 2: but we're in an era now where there's two groups.
9:26
Speaker 2: It used to be we would split it. I always
9:31
Speaker 2: felt like the man would split us into as many
9:33
Speaker 2: groups as possible, a subgroups, so that you wouldn't you
9:37
Speaker 2: just couldn't get along because even if you got along
9:39
Speaker 2: on eighty percent of it, there might be one of
9:41
Speaker 2: those two things down the line that you go, yeah,
9:43
Speaker 2: but and then you'd want to bicker with each other
9:46
Speaker 2: about it. And there were so many of these subgroups,
9:52
Speaker 2: and there still will be subgroups, but I feel like
9:54
Speaker 2: we have a new set of sort of main groups,
9:58
Speaker 2: and I think it's important that we remember that we
10:01
Speaker 2: have these two, you know, big groups, and it's we
10:07
Speaker 2: live in a society now where some people say it's
10:10
Speaker 2: not okay to murder somebody because of their opinions, and
10:14
Speaker 2: then there's a group of people who think it is
10:16
Speaker 2: okay to murder someone because of their opinions, and we
10:19
Speaker 2: have to live in that. I heard a stat the
10:23
Speaker 2: other day. I think it was Ben Shapiro who had it,
10:27
Speaker 2: and I think he said forty five percent of people
10:28
Speaker 2: say it was okay to kill somebody because of their opinions.
10:32
Speaker 2: I think I'm getting that stat right, But it's a
10:34
Speaker 2: high number, whatever it was. Because you disagree with them
10:38
Speaker 2: politically that it's okay, it's pushing some kind of agenda
10:44
Speaker 2: forward by eliminating them. That's a lot. That's a lot.
10:50
Speaker 2: I pray that number is wrong. So we've got to
10:53
Speaker 2: pray for each other that if we're all living in
10:56
Speaker 2: that world, we're living in that reality that there are
11:01
Speaker 2: people who think that's okay and that just go around
11:07
Speaker 2: living their lives every day like that's okay, no big deal.
11:12
Speaker 2: And we got to pray too that they don't encounter that,
11:15
Speaker 2: that they're not going to be themselves a victim of
11:21
Speaker 2: one of these violent acts against them where someone in
11:26
Speaker 2: their family has to see them die. The violence has
11:33
Speaker 2: to stop. It's senseless. We can't justify it or we
11:38
Speaker 2: bring more of it, like we're not really fixing the
11:40
Speaker 2: problem if we justify it. What's the quote? I saw
11:46
Speaker 2: a quote, Oh, Thomas Manton. Until a man hates sin,
11:52
Speaker 2: he's never truly against it. Yes, if you don't hate it,
11:58
Speaker 2: if you don't hate someone being a essinated publicly, and
12:03
Speaker 2: you can't be against it, you have to hate it.
12:06
Speaker 2: You can't just like, yeah, it's not it's a bit,
12:08
Speaker 2: it's it sucks that happened. You got to hate it.
12:15
Speaker 2: I hate it, trying hard not to hate the people
12:19
Speaker 2: who defended it. Ah. So there's that. And I really
12:24
Speaker 2: feel like my praying Manti's friend was a nice sign
12:27
Speaker 2: for a reminder that we have to do that. I
12:31
Speaker 2: did talk about prayer yesterday, but it was really a reminder.
12:36
Speaker 2: Got to really focus on that and spend time in it.
12:39
Speaker 2: Prayers how we get closer to God. Prayer doesn't fix things.
12:42
Speaker 2: It's gold C. S. Lewis thing right. Prayers not fixing
12:45
Speaker 2: the problem. We're not telling God you got it wrong,
12:47
Speaker 2: you allowed it to happen, you messed up. No prayers
12:51
Speaker 2: about fixing us. Ultimately, it's that weird thing that we
12:56
Speaker 2: have where we can pray for other people and be
12:59
Speaker 2: un selfish by praying for them, but the selfishish adding
13:06
Speaker 2: an extra ish to it. The selfish ish aspect of
13:10
Speaker 2: it is that it's really about us, draws us closer
13:13
Speaker 2: to God. Therefore it does improve us. But especially when
13:18
Speaker 2: we're praying for something for someone else, we're allowed to
13:21
Speaker 2: pray for things for us. We're allowed to cry out
13:25
Speaker 2: to God and say why right, We're allowed to do that.
13:30
Speaker 2: That's part of all of it. We cry out to
13:32
Speaker 2: God when we're in pain, when we suffer. We're supposed
13:36
Speaker 2: to do that, We're called to do that. But really
13:40
Speaker 2: praying for others, putting others first, looking for ways that
13:43
Speaker 2: we can be useful in this society, and this is
13:46
Speaker 2: the way we can be useful. We can pray for
13:48
Speaker 2: other people, especially people that have decided somehow that this
13:52
Speaker 2: is okay, this is acceptable all the subject of people
13:58
Speaker 2: losing their jobs, and I guess I've touched on this
14:03
Speaker 2: a little bit, but people who've gone publicly on social media,
14:07
Speaker 2: First of all, why why are you? Why have people
14:11
Speaker 2: felt what is this hole in our lives that draws
14:17
Speaker 2: us to go on social media with our opinions on
14:20
Speaker 2: issues that we really don't have any business really having
14:24
Speaker 2: an opinion on. The people who got I got the
14:28
Speaker 2: conspiracy theory. I know who really shot who, and I
14:31
Speaker 2: know who did this, and I know who caused it,
14:33
Speaker 2: and I know you don't. If you do, it's a
14:37
Speaker 2: lucky guess. You're just throwing spaghetti at the wall and
14:40
Speaker 2: it's stuck. That's all. Maybe you're right, but what are
14:45
Speaker 2: you basing it on? Is it contributing to anything? And
14:50
Speaker 2: the people who felt the need to go on and
14:52
Speaker 2: put their livelihoods and careers and family and jeopardy by
14:55
Speaker 2: saying aha has happened, I'm not necessarily an advocate for that.
15:03
Speaker 2: I mean, some of these jobs, yes, and it's nice
15:09
Speaker 2: that some people are giving us a good look at
15:12
Speaker 2: who they are. They've pulled the curtain back on themselves
15:15
Speaker 2: and they're letting us see who they are. It's hard
15:18
Speaker 2: to feel sorry for them that they've lost their job.
15:20
Speaker 2: I'm not necessarily one of those you know, let's go
15:23
Speaker 2: cancel them and get them people. But some of these
15:27
Speaker 2: people I think earned it, depending on what they've said
15:30
Speaker 2: and how they said it, and why the very least
15:35
Speaker 2: you're making it harder on the other people that you
15:37
Speaker 2: work with, right, they got to work with you. If
15:41
Speaker 2: you're a doctor who's saying, you know, yeah, wouldn't save
15:45
Speaker 2: his life, and you think, well, if President United States
15:48
Speaker 2: came in on the table with a bullet in him,
15:50
Speaker 2: would you save him or would you just sit there
15:52
Speaker 2: and not do it? Because you know, politics is more
15:56
Speaker 2: important than the oaths that you take right, And it
16:01
Speaker 2: all comes back to the thing you've heard me say
16:04
Speaker 2: many times. It's if we're putting our politics ahead of
16:08
Speaker 2: our faith than who we are, you're not doing it right.
16:12
Speaker 2: If it's the priority of your church to make this
16:15
Speaker 2: political issue something that and I'm sorry if your church
16:20
Speaker 2: over the weekend didn't take a stand against violence, if
16:25
Speaker 2: your church didn't say it's not okay to murder somebody
16:28
Speaker 2: in the name of politics, you might not be in
16:33
Speaker 2: the right place, might not be the right church, You
16:37
Speaker 2: might not be where you're supposed to be. I don't
16:40
Speaker 2: know that that church is pushing the right message out.
16:43
Speaker 2: I don't know what they said. Maybe they did have
16:45
Speaker 2: a good message to it, but I'd like to think
16:47
Speaker 2: at the very least they were willing to take that stand,
16:50
Speaker 2: because we got to all be willing to take that stand.
16:54
Speaker 2: And if not, I encourage you to join me in
16:57
Speaker 2: praying for people to find the strength to take that
16:59
Speaker 2: stand at some point. Today's show brought to you by
17:01

Speaker 2: of Music from Columbus State University called Music under the Dome.
17:53
Speaker 2: It's unlike any concert experience that you can get anywhere else.
17:58
Speaker 2: It's one of those things that when you're watching it
18:00
Speaker 2: in Columbus, Georgia, you think, is this really in Columbus, Georgia.
18:04
Speaker 2: I mean, this is a major city attraction that happens
18:09
Speaker 2: right here in Columbus inside the planetarium at the Coca
18:13
Speaker 2: Cola Space Science Center and the new season of Music

18:27
Speaker 2: the Cocola Space Science Center. Sometimes you get outside somewhere
18:31
Speaker 2: outside the city lights. You don't want any light interference,
18:33
Speaker 2: and you can do that as well upcoming Astronomy Night events.
18:36
Speaker 2: Also on their website, it's CCSSC dot org. As Sean
18:41
Speaker 2: Crusan says, Charlie Charlie SamSam Charlie dot org, I just
18:45
Speaker 2: remind you that it stands for Coca Cola Space Science
18:49
Speaker 2: Center CCSSC dot org. Today's show brought to you by
18:53
Speaker 2: Overhead Door Company of Columbus for all of your garage
18:56
Speaker 2: door needs, commercial or residential. Maybe you have regular maintenance
19:03
Speaker 2: that it's time for. It's always good to get maintenance
19:06
Speaker 2: on anything that has parts that move and have electronics.
19:10
Speaker 2: The folks at Overhead Door Company of Columbus can take
19:13
Speaker 2: care of square in that away for you, and while
19:15
Speaker 2: they're there, you can always ask them questions about some
19:18
Speaker 2: of the maybe cosmetic changes you'd like to make to
19:20
Speaker 2: your garage door. Maybe your curb appeal isn't quite what
19:25
Speaker 2: you want it to be and you need some repair
19:27
Speaker 2: work done to the outside door. Maybe you need a
19:29
Speaker 2: brand new garage door completely. Maybe it's making a noise
19:33
Speaker 2: when your garage door opens and closes. Maybe it's some
19:36
Speaker 2: sort of installation issue that you've got. With colder or
19:39
Speaker 2: warmer weather, sometimes that stuff gets in and it's inconvenient.
19:43
Speaker 2: Maybe you're looking at a situation where you'd like to
19:46
Speaker 2: add a screen door to your garage door system that
19:49
Speaker 2: you can put down and you can use your garage
19:51
Speaker 2: space as a sort of outdoor but indoor. You know,
19:55
Speaker 2: if you like to work on your own cars in there,
19:58
Speaker 2: or maybe you just want a little man you'd like
20:00
Speaker 2: to be able to open the door up and not
20:02
Speaker 2: invite all the insects in. They can do that for
20:05
Speaker 2: you as well, and again they do after hours calls.
20:08
Speaker 2: There's nothing worse than that thought of having your car
20:10
Speaker 2: trapped inside your garage and your garage door won't open
20:13
Speaker 2: and you need somebody to come help, and they do

Speaker 2: pleased to know it was mostly accurate. I mean I
25:05
Speaker 2: still needed the doctor to confirm all of that and
25:08
Speaker 2: to actually do my procedures. But it was nice to
25:11
