Latest / Radio Baloney - The Richie Baloney Show! / Benny Johnson Robbed In Oakland While Talking About In-N-Out Burger Robberies
Transcript
- 0:03You know it sure seems like this whole progressive thing might have been kind of
- 0:08a bad idea. How about this headline, Benny Johnson robbed at Oakland In
- 0:13and Out Burger while shooting segment about it closing do two robberies. So you've
- 0:19got In and Out Burger, which is an extremely successful and popular franchise in
- 0:23California, having to close one of their franchises because it's not safe to have
- 0:29an in and Out Burger in Oakland, apparently. And while Betty Johnson's reporting
- 0:34on that, he himself gets robbed. So I guess the message is pretty
- 0:38clear, go to Oakland, do anything, and you'll get robbed. Now
- 0:42we're gonna go to this video in just a second, but first I wanted
- 0:45to show you a couple of things. Here's from the gov dot CA dot
- 0:49gov website says here, California's values aren't just a point of pride, they
- 0:55are the very fabric of our state's history and our future. California has been
- 1:00on the leading edge of change and acting bold reforms that reflect those values,
- 1:06like getting robbed doing anything in California. Now, there was this thing at
- 1:11Prop forty seventy. You might have heard about it. It was actually passed
- 1:12in twenty fourteen. And this law made some nonviolent property crimes where the value
- 1:19does not exceed nine hundred and fifty dollars into misdemeanors. It also made simple
- 1:23drug possession offenses into misdemeanors. It also provides that pass convictions for these charges
- 1:30may be reduced to a misdemeanor by a court. So what does this include?
- 1:34So under nine hundred and fifty dollars certain forgeries, commercial burglary, petty
- 1:40theft with priors, bad check, grand theft, crimes, possession of stolen
- 1:46property, possession of a controlled substance. So I guess if you pass a
- 1:49law like this, people will stop doing all those things. Makes sense right
- 1:53now. Oakland had been dealing with the consequences of Democrat politics for a while.
- 1:59Two twenty two they did the only thing that makes any sense. They
- 2:02went more progressive. Of course, what else would you do. Election victory
- 2:07show Oakland swung towards progressive candidates. So now, let's check out this video
- 2:13from Benny Johnson. In and Out Burger is a beloved fast food franchise.
- 2:17They are wildly popular and expanding everywhere except for in one. Look, welcome
- 2:23to the only in and Out Burger that has ever closed. This is a
- 2:29historic location. You can see the iconic building, but there's a fence around
- 2:31it. The signs have been ripped down and the windows are all boarded up.
- 2:36Why did this in and Out Burger close? Well, because people are
- 2:38getting robbed in the drive through lane. One thousand different criminal incidents of people
- 2:43being robbed while trying to get a burger in the drive through lane. Heere
- 2:46in and out? Yeah, in and out got bumped out of here.
- 2:51The reason that California has descended into a third world criminal hell whole is because
- 2:54of Democrats soft on crime policies that defund the police and that view the criminals
- 3:00as the victim and not the tastage citizen. Speaking of being a victim,
- 3:04we were literally robbed while we were filming this videos two o'clock in the Africa.
- 3:10Man is starting to get the hell out of Oakland, California. So
- 3:14got robbed while reporting on a business that had to close because it kept getting
- 3:17robbed. Yeah, and remember that progressive mayor I just told you about that
- 3:22got elected in twenty twenty two. Well, I just came across this article
- 3:25at retired judge blast crime ridden Oakland's mayor facing recall, she has ruined our
- 3:32city. What a progressive mayor ruining a city again? Let's see Former Alameda
- 3:38Superior Court Judge Brenda Harbin Forte spoke out as opponents of Mayor Shang Tao held
- 3:46a rally over the weekend to air their litany of grievances over her policies,
- 3:51which have seen rising homelessness and shuddering businesses. Well, first off, this
- 3:55judge, Brenda Harbin fort she must be one of those white supremacists. Oh
- 4:02well, I guess we'd better just not talk about her anymore. Quote people
- 4:06who say, give her more time, more time to do what the retired
- 4:11judge said, she has ruined our city. Let's see tow ran from mayor
- 4:15with what she called a bold, progressive, unifying vision of Oakland. Well,
- 4:20I mean, if unifying means everybody's getting robbed, then I guess she
- 4:26was right. Let's see, violent crime in Oakland was up twenty one percent
- 4:29in twenty twenty three compared to the year before, while robbery's skyrocketed thirty eight
- 4:33percent and burglaries rose twenty three percent, according to police data, and it
- 4:40appears they are in the process of trying to recall this mayre, which will
- 4:45probably fail because it's California. Now, interestingly, it seems like they actually
- 4:49can deal with some of their problems, like homelessness, for example, but
- 4:53only when a Chinese dictator comes to town. So if there's no Chinese dictators
- 4:59in town, well, I guess you're just plumb out of luck. But
- 5:02anyway, that's all I got to say about that. Please like, share
