• 0:30
  Speaker 1: just because you're biologically capable of creating a child doesn't
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: mean you're mentally or emotionally prepared to raise one. Okay,
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: I once heard the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan say that
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: bringing life into the world should.
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: Be a highly deliberate... Spiritual and planned act.
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: OK, but a lot of y'all treat it like a
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: game of chance. OK, Minister Farrakhan said you treat breeding
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: like you are rolling dice in the back of a
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: moving pickup truck. OK, and Jordan Haley is out here
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: proving the good minister right. See, Jordan has been charged
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: with leaving an unattended child in a motor vehicle and
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: child neglect after being accused of leaving his wife. Four-month-old
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: baby in the front seat of a car while he
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: went into a Nashville bar called Broadway to argue with
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: his baby mother.
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: Let's go to KGNS News for the report, please.
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: Well, a man is now facing charges after police say
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: he left his four-month-old baby in a parked car while
• 1:25
  Speaker 3: he was on Broadway. Now, according to the arrest report,
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: we know officers found Jordan Haley arguing with a woman
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: in the line of Jason Aldean's bar. Now, he was detained.
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: Officers went to his car and found the infant in
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: the car seat left alone in the running vehicle. He
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: is now charged with child neglect.
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: This man was arguing with the mother of his child
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: about his responsibilities as a father while actively neglecting his
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: responsibilities as a father okay now let me give you
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: some more context to the story jordan was supposed to
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: be watching his four-month-old daughter.
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: But he's so busy worried about his baby mama.
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: Where she at who she with that he pulled up
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: on her at the bar okay y'all got a four-month-old
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: let that woman breathe okay if she wants to go
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: to a bar and have a couple of drinks let
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: her All right, hell, help her out. When she gets home,
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: have the breast pump ready so she can pump and
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: dump that breast milk that got alcohol in it. Okay, hell,
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: suck it out for her. Nothing like an organic white Russian. Now,
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: I don't know what they were arguing about, but I
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: know one thing for certain. Whatever they were arguing about,
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: Jordan proved his baby mother right.
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: Okay, I don't even know.
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: I don't even need to know what the full argument
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: was about. But the fact that you left your four
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: month old daughter alone in the car to have the
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: argument tells me everything I need to know about you.
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: Young man, how are you going to defend yourself against
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: accusations of being an irresponsible father by being an irresponsible father? OK,
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: this is like liars that get confronted for being liars.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: And then they start lying to attempt to prove to
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: you that they telling the truth.
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: It's got to be crack. OK, that's the only thing
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: that explains the behavior.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: Your baby mom is asking you, Jordan, as you're arguing,
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: she's asking you where her child is. And according to police,
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: you told them the baby was with her grandmother. Meanwhile,
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: that baby is sitting shotgun alone in your car. OK,
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: this is what Minister Farrakhan be talking about. Some people
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: are biologically capable of making children pregnant. but mentally and
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: emotionally unprepared for the responsibility of raising them. OK, see,
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: sex doesn't doesn't require maturity. OK, you don't have to
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: be mature to have sex.
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: All right.
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: Shooting somebody club up and getting them pregnant doesn't require
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: good judgment. But raising a child requires both. And I
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: really wish more people understood that before they started reproducing.
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: OK, a four month old.
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: Baby is completely dependent on the adult's responsible behavior. for
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: them okay that baby can't protect itself all right that's
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: our job jordan you're a man men are supposed to
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: protect and provide but you at the bar arguing with
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: your baby mama about what okay what argument could possibly
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: be more important than making sure your four-month-old daughter is
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: safe and listen this is something that happens to people
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: in general man Some of us are so determined to
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: win an argument that we don't realize our behavior is
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: proving the other person right. OK, you know, somebody tells
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: you that you're immature. So you throw a tantrum. Somebody
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: tells you you're irresponsible. So then you go do something irresponsible.
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: At some point, you have.
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: To stop defending your character with your words and start
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: demonstrating it with your actions.
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: OK, when you become a parent.
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: You don't get to put your emotions ahead of your
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: obligations and your obligations to them babies. OK, Jordan, you
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: were so busy trying to prove your baby mother wrong
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: that you forgot the one thing that would have actually
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: proved her wrong. And that's simply being a responsible father.
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: The word irony was invented for stories like this. OK,
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: your baby mother didn't even have to win that argument.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: You won it for her. And the saddest part is
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: the only person who had absolutely nothing to do with
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: that argument was the person you put at risk.
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: And that's your four month old daughter. Please let Remy
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: Ma give Jordan Haley the biggest hee haw.
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: Hee-haw.

  Speaker 1: That's it.
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: You know, baby four months. You know, she needs some space.
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: She needs just some fresh air. You couldn't wait till
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: she come back in the house and argue. That's it.
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: And his ego was like, you left me? You left
• 5:28
