- 0:09Speaker 1: no big deal, I know, Charlotte Maney. Gotta go out funny,
- 0:12Speaker 1: gotta say something you may not agree with, doesn't mean
- 0:14Speaker 1: I need Who's getting that donkey? That donkey that don't
- 0:16Speaker 1: don't don't don't, don't don't. Here the day right here
- 0:21Speaker 1: the breakfast club. Bitches. You can call me the donkey
- 0:23Speaker 1: of the day, but like I mean no harm. Yes,
- 0:27Speaker 1: Donkey of the Day for Thursday, October six goes to
- 0:30Speaker 1: a young man named Alex Taylor of Direct Action Everywhere.
- 0:33Speaker 1: Who is Alex Taylor Well? Alex Taylor is an animal
- 0:36Speaker 1: rights activist who decided to run his ass onto the
- 0:38Speaker 1: field Monday night during Monday Night football. If you watch
- 0:41Speaker 1: Monday Night Football this past Monday, you couldn't miss it.
- 0:44Speaker 1: The Rams played the forty niners and during the game
- 0:47Speaker 1: you might have noticed the man run onto the field
- 0:49Speaker 1: holding a pink flare. Security was chasing him. I would
- 0:53Speaker 1: give Alex. I would say his Madden rating is probably
- 0:56Speaker 1: like in the forty or fifty ish range because he
- 0:58Speaker 1: was able to evade something. Security did a few cut
- 1:01Speaker 1: moves that you know, kept him from grabbing him, but
- 1:03Speaker 1: he couldn't escape. A veteran linebacker named Bobby Wagner dropped
- 1:08Speaker 1: on a clues bomb for Bobby Wagner, six time Pro Bowler,
- 1:12Speaker 1: Super Bowl champion, Bobby Wagner because he, Bobby did what
- 1:16Speaker 1: security couldn't do. He took Alex Taylor out. Boom, quick tackle,
- 1:21Speaker 1: get out the way, got him down. Let security do
- 1:23Speaker 1: their job, all right. That should be the end of
- 1:25Speaker 1: this story, right, Alex Taylor, you know, probably gets arrested
- 1:28Speaker 1: for trustpassing and some type of disorderly conduct charge and
- 1:30Speaker 1: that's it, right, that should be the end of the story. Nope,
- 1:33Speaker 1: not in this era, not in the America where people
- 1:36Speaker 1: violate you and it didn't play victim to avoid the
- 1:39Speaker 1: consequences of the violation. Uncle Charlotte, what are you talking
- 1:42Speaker 1: about this morning? People violating in you and didn't playing victim. Well,
- 1:46Speaker 1: let's go to Fox to eleven LA for the report.
- 1:47Speaker 1: Please Monday night football and the tackle that could be
- 1:51Speaker 1: a legal game changer could be actually something to it.
- 1:57Speaker 1: The question is gonna come down to whether unreasonable force
- 2:02Speaker 1: was used to stop this guy. A personal injury attorney
- 2:05Speaker 1: reacts to the protester now filing a police report against
- 2:09Speaker 1: the Rams linebacker Bobby Wagner. That as the protester ran
- 2:13Speaker 1: onto the field, getting past security and then running towards
- 2:16Speaker 1: the RAM sideline waving pink smoke players, that's when Wagner
- 2:19Speaker 1: stepped in and flattened the protester. You know, I'm more
- 2:23Speaker 1: concerned about the security guard that was hurt trying to
- 2:25Speaker 1: chase him. And but you never know what that person is. God,
- 2:28Speaker 1: and they fucking their hands, they whatever. You know, there's
- 2:31Speaker 1: consequence for your actions. But Wagner now could be the
- 2:35Speaker 1: one facing those consequences for his own action taking down
- 2:38Speaker 1: the protester. Idd As Alex Taylor with the Animal Rights
- 2:41Speaker 1: Network direct Action Everywhere, that now calls what Wagner did
- 2:45Speaker 1: a blatant assault on that protester. Oh God, is the
- 2:49Speaker 1: era we live in when people violate you and then
- 2:51Speaker 1: they become the victim. All right, Alex Taylor made a
- 2:54Speaker 1: choice to take to take a pink flare and run
- 2:57Speaker 1: on that field on behalf of direct Action Everywhere. That's
- 3:00Speaker 1: the name of the organization, by the way, direct Action
- 3:02Speaker 1: Everywhere well, it seems to me one of those everywhere
- 3:04Speaker 1: as y'all like to take the direct action is at
- 3:06Speaker 1: NFL football games, because nearly a month ago to other
- 3:09Speaker 1: direct action everywhere members disrupted a RAMS game, okay, carrying
- 3:13Speaker 1: smoke flares onto the field before they were apprehended by security.
- 3:16Speaker 1: So this is what they do. Well why did they
- 3:18Speaker 1: do it? I don't know what the case was about
- 3:20Speaker 1: almost a month ago, but I know they took credit
- 3:22Speaker 1: for their stunt on Twitter immediately on Monday night. Their
- 3:27Speaker 1: tweet was Taylor and a colleague, Alison Flutie, were a
- 3:30Speaker 1: bit beaten up, but in good spirits. After the incident,
- 3:33Speaker 1: the organization added that its aim had been to elevate
- 3:36Speaker 1: the Smithfield Trial, a case in which two of its
- 3:39Speaker 1: members are charged with smuggling two piglets off a Utah
- 3:44Speaker 1: farm in twenty seventeen. They wanted to save two pigs
- 3:47Speaker 1: from growing up to meet their ultimate fate, which is
- 3:50Speaker 1: to become bacon. I understand, I get it, but you
- 3:53Speaker 1: can't make a choice to be a disruptor. You can't
- 3:55Speaker 1: make a choice to trust, pass on someone's place of employment,
- 3:58Speaker 1: and then when you are met with force, when they
- 4:01Speaker 1: use force, to take you down. You're filing assault complaint.
- 4:05Speaker 1: They didn't assault you, They defended themselves from possible harm.
- 4:10Speaker 1: It's two twenty two. We don't know what you're doing
- 4:13Speaker 1: on this field. People acting crazy in public must be
- 4:16Speaker 1: taken out swiftly and quickly. Okay. Imagine someone coming to
- 4:20Speaker 1: your place of employment, disrupting things at your job, scaring
- 4:23Speaker 1: folks because we don't know if you got a bomb.
- 4:25Speaker 1: We don't know if you're a mass shooter. We don't
- 4:27Speaker 1: know if you're distracting people so someone else can do
- 4:30Speaker 1: a hainous actor. How about this, Maybe you're just holding
- 4:33Speaker 1: up the damn game. And I don't want to be
- 4:35Speaker 1: out here, not a second longer than I have to be.
- 4:37Speaker 1: I don't want to hear anything about un you know,
- 4:41Speaker 1: reasonable force and a restraint all they they would restrain them.
- 4:44Speaker 1: They tackled them and restrained them. That's not unreasonable force,
- 4:47Speaker 1: all right. I keep telling you fools, you can't tell
- 4:50Speaker 1: someone how to react. Okay, As Wagner said, there's consequences
- 4:53Speaker 1: to your actions. Deal with those consequences. You were trust passing.
- 4:58Speaker 1: You made an intentional choice, and get But this is
- 5:01Speaker 1: what blows my mind atlay has laws that actually protected trustpasses.
- 5:06Speaker 1: Listen to this. After the takedown, Taylor's attained cited and
- 5:10Speaker 1: then released by Santa Clara Police, who have now started
- 5:12Speaker 1: their own investigation. Even though Taylor was clearly trespassing jumping
- 5:17Speaker 1: out of the stands running onto the field fairly, it
- 5:19Speaker 1: may still not be an open and shut case, As
- 5:21Speaker 1: attorneys say, California law is clear on one point. It
- 5:24Speaker 1: even protects those who willingly trespass. Might have to provide
- 5:29Speaker 1: a reasonable amount of safety even for trespassers. Why you know,
- 5:32Speaker 1: you can't have a dangerous something dangerous on your premises
- 5:36Speaker 1: and the trust even though someone trespasses on your premises
- 5:39Speaker 1: and gets injured by that dangerous condition, that can be
- 5:42Speaker 1: a claim, even though he was trespassing. So you do
- 5:44Speaker 1: all a duty of safety even to trustpassers. And yet
- 5:47Speaker 1: another legal issue to all of this, attorneys always look
- 5:50Speaker 1: to argue excessive force. Did Wagner's hard tackle of that
- 5:53Speaker 1: protester cross the line? You mean to tell me, with
- 5:58Speaker 1: all the home invasions going on, in all the robberies
- 6:02Speaker 1: going on in LA, if people jumping over gates, hopping
- 6:04Speaker 1: on your property, there's no protection for you as soon
- 6:09Speaker 1: as you step on someone's property with Melissa's intent, the
- 6:12Speaker 1: only person who should be protected in that situation is
- 6:15Speaker 1: the person's property you want. Like, we really live in
- 6:18Speaker 1: an era where nobody wants to deal with the consequences
- 6:20Speaker 1: of their actions. Folks think they can do and say anything,
- 6:24Speaker 1: use it for content, to bring attention to themselves or
- 6:26Speaker 1: a cause, and if that thing they are doing are saying,
- 6:29Speaker 1: violate someone in any way, they truly feel like they
- 6:33Speaker 1: are free from the consequences of said violation. Like literally,
- 6:37Speaker 1: someone will walk up to you, slap you in the face,
- 6:40Speaker 1: and then when you beat the hell out of them,
- 6:42Speaker 1: they will say you went too far and then press
- 6:44Speaker 1: charges against you or try to sue you. How about
- 6:46Speaker 1: you shouldn't it slap me. In the case of Alex Taylor,
- 6:49Speaker 1: you chose to trust, pass and run out on that field.
- 6:53Speaker 1: You gotta deal with everything that comes with that. Just
- 6:57Speaker 1: a reminder for the Alex Taylors of the world. You're
- 7:00Speaker 1: free to do whatever you want, but you should always
- 7:04Speaker 1: take responsibility for the consequences of your choices in life. Period.
- 7:11Speaker 1: Please let me give Alex Taylor. Animal rights activists from
- 7:14Speaker 1: the Direct Action Everywhere Foundation, the biggest he haw he
- 7:18Speaker 1: haw he ha. You stupid mother, are you? I mean,
- 7:22Speaker 1: you got to be very very careful because you just
- 7:24Speaker 1: never know what people have on him. I remember this
- 7:28Speaker 1: crazy Cowboys fan went into MetLife Stadium one time with
- 7:31Speaker 1: a taser and tas somebody just imagine if he had
- 7:34Speaker 1: a taser. Well, I'm glad that my daddy had a
- 7:37Speaker 1: table at that time, because the reason I'm glad my
- 7:39Speaker 1: dad had a taser is because he got assaulted the
- 7:41Speaker 1: first But that's what I'm saying, you just never know
- 7:43Speaker 1: what somebody has on him, Like, how do you get
- 7:45Speaker 1: the taser in it? Hey, somebody violated my dad, so
- 7:49Speaker 1: my dad gave him consequences for that violation. Period. All right,
