Transcript
- 0:00Hello, and welcome to HBr Talk two sixty seven. How the script gets
- 0:06flipped on male victims. I'm your host Hannah Wallen here with nonsense annihilator Lauren
- 0:12Brooks and the personification of perceptivity Mike Stevenson to dig into a glaring gender based
- 0:18double standard on the behavior of people and positions of authority and the vulnerability of
- 0:23people under their control. But first, before we get to that, we've
- 0:28got to do what we got to do. As always, Honey Badger Radio
- 0:32dishes out a smorgese board of thought provoking discussions and has experiences both recent and
- 0:37long past have demonstrated the provoked thoughts are fighting back. They've made it clear
- 0:42that for people like us, relying on third party payment platforms like Patreon to
- 0:46fund our work is treading on thin ice or building our house in the path
- 0:50of a while they growing rapidly growing wildfire. In light of this, we
- 0:55strongly encourage our supporters to switch at least their support for us to feed the
- 1:00Badger dot Com the most stable way to help us out, And if you
- 1:03want to tip us directly instead of relying on any social media platforms, tip
- 1:07jar. The link for that is feed the Badger dot com slash just the
- 1:11tip and as always, the same risk applies to our social media platforms,
- 1:17which is why you should further provoke the thought police by tracking our thought provoking
- 1:21discussions on Honey Badger Brigade dot com, where you can find your way to
- 1:25all of our content, as well as a link to feed the Badger dot
- 1:27com and the dropdown menu at the top of the page. So we recently
- 1:34went over an article discussing the question how could people know if they were biased
- 1:40against men? How would they identify discrimination against men? And you know,
- 1:45we did find that in some countries people are a little more aware of this,
- 1:48but in the United States wasn't necessarily that high on the list. It's
- 1:53better than we thought it was, but not as good as say, some
- 1:57of the some of them where third world countries are starting to figure out the
- 2:01feminism is crap because they can't afford not to figure it out. But here
- 2:07we've we've got some pretty blatant and obvious reasons we should be able to figure
- 2:13it out if people were a little bit more aware of double standards. So
- 2:20now we've we've also recently been discussing, you know, false allegations. That's
- 2:24a regular topic here. It's one of my big personal topics because that's kind
- 2:30of what got me connected with the movement online where I came looking for sort
- 2:38of advice, help information, anything I could think of for a friend's case,
- 2:42and discovered a whole community of men going through similar experiences in family and
- 2:49criminal court. And so I thought this this article. It's we haven't really
- 2:58talked much about this article, and I think I may be referenced at a
- 3:01few times, but we really ought to go over it because it's a really
- 3:05great piece of work and it really highlights something egregious in our society. So
- 3:10this article is from a Voice for men, follows up on both of those
- 3:15discussions in regard to a particularly vulnerable demographic male inmates in the prison system.
- 3:24So prepare yourselves, guys. This is this is rage fuel. What these
- 3:29guys are subjected to and how it is characterized just is ridiculous. The headline
- 3:38is The New Yorkers Jeffrey Tubin, who I felt. I think he still
- 3:42writes for The New Yorker. This is, like I said, this is
- 3:45a seven year old, nine year old article. But the New Yorkers Jeffrey
- 3:50Tubin says cynical and devious male inmates abused female guards. Let's just let that
- 4:00I'm thinking I would love to know how, um, who's in control here
- 4:05and what is and if and if this is well, I know this is
- 4:10not actually what this part because this is uh where this is from a Voice
- 4:15for men, Right, he's citing an article by Jeffrey Tubin in which Jeffrey
- 4:20Tubin did say that. Okay, so if if that is true, then
- 4:29Jeffrey Tuban see what I did there? Uh? Yeah, doesn't that mean
- 4:34that women aren't really fit for the fucking job? Yeah, that would be
- 4:40true. I mean if if the male guards can handle handle it but the
- 4:45female guards can't, um, that's that does indicate that the female guards are
- 4:51doing an inferior job. How about your diversity and inclusion puts human lives at
- 4:59risk? Well? And and actually, when you think about it, based
- 5:02on the diversity standards, the standards that we get from from these people who
- 5:10like to advocate for so called diversity and inclusion, prison population is the most
- 5:17diverse population in the country. Yeah, it's almost entirely black and mail.
- 5:27That's not diverse though. But yeah, that's that's the sad thing. Um,
- 5:32we do have a much higher population of black and Hispanic prisoners than any
- 5:39other group, and now we're hearing that they're so powerful and magical that they
- 5:46can abuse their captors. So the basis for the article in twenty thirteen,
- 5:53it says last year, but this, like I said, the articles from
- 5:55twenty fourteen. So in twenty thirteen, the Department of Justice completed its study
- 5:59of sexual abuse and adult prisons and juvenile facilities. And I also wrote an
- 6:03article for Honey Badger Radio about this because for the Honey Badger Brigade blog about
- 6:11this, by the way, because we looked at the juvenile statistics and it's
- 6:15just as bad as the adult statistics. In fact, it's worse because here
- 6:20you're talking about adult women with underage boys. The paragraph goes on, it
- 6:30wasn't a happy time for feminists. The studies showed that most of the sexual
- 6:35abuse of inmates is committed by guards, and most of that is committed by
- 6:41female guards. Female wrongdoing, particularly sexual wrongdoing, is the type of thing
- 6:49feminists prefer to keep out of sight, since it contradicts their narrative of female
- 6:54and innocence and male corruption worse coming as that information did in studies not subject
- 7:00to their censorship, readers were able to draw conclusions free of feminist instruction.
- 7:08So what to do, Well, if you're a del Mercier. Adele Mercy
- 7:13was a professor at a university in Canada who Alison just commented on something that
- 7:23she had published, and she had a sort of a slap fight with Alison
- 7:30back and forth and threatened to sue us for publishing verbatim what she said.
- 7:38Wow, did you not? She didn't do it typical, but she did
- 7:44threaten it. So this this was part of that. Also, if you're
- 7:48a dele Mercier, you simply drop all pretense of intellectual integrity and claim that
- 7:55in the case of boys abused in juvenile facilities, they were asking for it.
- 8:01Yes, if the sexes were reversed and maile commentators said the same thing
- 8:05about girls abused by mail guards, Mercier would be screaming for his head on
- 8:09a platter. But one of the many privileges of being feminist is freedom from
- 8:13the inconvenient strictures of intellectual honesty. We just got a We just comment from
- 8:24Richard Pierre gave us four ninety nine and said, were these female guards from
- 8:31the US women's soccer team by any chance? No, if that was the
- 8:37case, they would have been beaten by the mail in mains. Oh that's
- 8:43awful. But yeah, that that whole discussion, And I'll probably at some
- 8:50point I want to go over that article too, because there's some things in
- 8:52that article that contribute to the discussion on adult perpetration of actual violence and allegations
- 9:01against men as being incompetent at preventing themselves from engaging in sexual violence. So
- 9:13so there's that. But but in regard to the Adele mercy a discussion,
- 9:18like I still remember, we were all pretty pissed off about what she said,
- 9:22because what she did was go through and say, well, actually it
- 9:26was an abuse. There were gifts given, And she went on and described
- 9:33grooming like adult grooming of an underage victim of sexual misconduct, whether it goes
- 9:43from like the more minor forms of sexual conduct to full on rape. What
- 9:50she described was essentially the guards grooming the underage inmates for sex, and then
- 10:00the fact that the the grooming led the inmates to think of the relationship as
- 10:07going both ways. Um made it made it Okay, that was That was
- 10:15basically the way she described it. So of course Alison lamb based at her
- 10:20and it was glorious, um and only the way it can be when Alison
- 10:26does it. And and she threatened to sue us, and she went ballistic,
- 10:30and Barbara streisand affected herself and and uh, and then her students claimed
- 10:37to be part of Anonymous and threatened us. That never panned out because obviously
- 10:45Anonymous doesn't threaten people for standing up for victims of That's just not a thing.
- 10:50Anonymous doesn't threaten people for standing up for crime victims. That's never been
- 10:56a thing. Um. You just so we made fun of them and that
- 11:03kind of ended it. We mocked them, and when they realized that we
- 11:07were just always going to answer them by mocking them, they quit, Like
- 11:13you just you can't fight with somebody that does that, right, It's like
- 11:16getting into an argument with pee wee Hermann. Right, they knew you were
- 11:20but at infinity, sorry, but you lose, you suck. So that
- 11:28was that. But that whole thing, the only reason that that whole argument
- 11:35happened was because we were talking about male inmates. If female inmates experienced the
- 11:43same percentage of abuse by guards and they don't. By the way, in
- 11:52female detention facilities, whether adult or youth, the majority of victimization of sexual
- 12:03misconduct is inmate perpetrated m and of the UM. Now, of the staff
- 12:11they I think they have more male staff there UM and that that is,
- 12:16uh, it's a minority of the abuse, but there are more male staffers
- 12:22involved with the female um inmates. And you know, that was a that
- 12:31was a mostly unmentioned thing in regard to the research, was like that the
- 12:39male guards at the prisons where female inmates are housed were the minority among perpetrators
- 12:48as opposed to the majority because the inmates were victimizing each other. And you
- 12:56know with the when it's the guards and the inmates, UM, you know
- 13:00you can tell the dynamic because of the power dynamic, right, so you
- 13:05know, you know, feminists would not deny that it is a form of
- 13:11victimization when it's a female inmate and a mail guard. When it's inmate on
- 13:16inmate, Like, if they're complaining about being victimized, they're not talking about
- 13:22a situation where somebody groomed them. They're talking about actual physical violence and threat
- 13:30of violence. Coercion and stuff. So that's that's a totally different thing.
- 13:35And the opinion people have had, the public view seems to have always held
- 13:43that this is the majority of what takes place in mail inmates that you know,
- 13:46well, yeah, there's there's a significant amount of prison rape, but
- 13:52we don't count it in the statistics because that's just mostly inmate on inmate and
- 13:56it's how they have sex. Well, no, actually it's female guards and
- 14:01other staffers taking advantage of a captive population that cannot get away with hurting their
- 14:09feelings or offending them or anything. So if they tell them no and the
- 14:15women react the way women react when they are rejected, the men are in
- 14:18danger. So there is violence or threat of violence there. Absolutely. So
- 14:28it goes on so much for the juvenile facilities, But what about the adult
- 14:37ones. We now have our answer. It appears that it appears in a
- 14:41New Yorker article by Jeffrey Tubin. Now, Tuban barely mentions the DOJ studies,
- 14:48but his article is plain plainly in answer to the uncomfortable questions they raise
- 14:54about the sexual abuse of male inmates by their female guards. Unsurprisingly, Tubin
- 15:01pedals the standard feminist line that somehow the sexual connection between the men in cages
- 15:07and the women who hold the keys was a matter of what else male power
- 15:11and female helplessness. Those poor helpless female guards with the keys to the cells.
- 15:20I mean, god, whatever did they do? I mean they all
- 15:24they did was show up to work, Hannah. I mean, this is
- 15:28a workplace harassment situation now, right, Like they can go to hr Oh
- 15:35yeah, ridiculous, re goddamndiculous pants on fucking head. Stupid. But then
- 15:41again, I would expect nothing less from Jeffrey Tuban. Yeah, this is
- 15:50this is really the sad thing about this is uh. I mean, we're
- 15:54talking about probably one of the most powerful positions you can be in outside of
- 16:03say being an authority over the general population. Like teachers have power because you
- 16:11know, they can affect students education, but you can go to a different
- 16:14school, right. Employers have power because they can affect your progress at a
- 16:18particular job, but you can get a different job. Right. You don't
- 16:23easily get transferred in the prison system, And even if you do get transferred,
- 16:30if a guard is angry with you, your reputation follows so it or
- 16:37precedes you. Even so, there's if a guy gets in wrong with the
- 16:44guards at a prison, no matter what recourse he has the rest of his
- 16:52career, there is going to be hell yeah, right, And it's not
- 16:56just you know, they can be mean. They can write him up and
- 17:02affect how long he has to stay if he's you know, they can accuse
- 17:07him of misbehavior. You know, he was making noise at night, he
- 17:11was saying rude things, he was doing this, he was doing that.
- 17:17They can accuse him of all kinds of misconduct, and that there are little
- 17:21punishments and big punishments that get handed out for different types of misconduct. And
- 17:27I mean, if you have areas of the prison that are off camera,
- 17:32it's not hard to do something like that to somebody. They can be extra
- 17:36rough with him. They can lie to the mail guards and have the mail
- 17:37guards be extra rough with him. You know, they could give another prisoner
- 17:41incentive to assault. So a guy is under a lot of pressure. If
- 17:48if a female guard does not like him or does like him, and he
- 17:52is not wanting to comply, he can be in deep shit. Yeah.
- 18:00And so the scariest thing that I just thought about during this whole conversation is,
- 18:07you know a lot of these women, these female guards also have children,
- 18:15and imagine growing up in a household like that with a person like that
- 18:19who would exert that level of power and really just cruelty. And yeah,
- 18:30you know, we don't know what the reason percentage of female guards is involved,
- 18:37but we do know that that the greatest percentage of abuse is perpetrated by
- 18:41female guards, right, right, But just the idea that you can do
- 18:48something like that to someone who is helpless, right, It's people like that
- 18:56belong nowhere in well many systems in our society, but I would say first
- 19:03and foremost the criminal justice system, because they just don't they don't really have
- 19:15a firm sense of what is right and what is wrong. Because when you
- 19:19can insert your own moral justifications for things, yeah, or the lack thereof,
- 19:29you know, then you shouldn't really have that level of power over people.
- 19:33Or they don't care, they don't care what's right or wrong, you
- 19:37know. Right. I look at this, and you know, like you,
- 19:41you can't possibly not realize that, especially in the modern world, you
- 19:48can't possibly not realize. There's been discussion for for decades about this, like
- 19:52seventy years of feminist activism on this claiming that if there is a power dynamic
- 19:59and relationship and a so called relationship where one person has a significant amount of
- 20:07power over the basic aspects of another person's life, your ability to continue in
- 20:12your employment, your ability to come and go as you please, any any
- 20:18kind of you know, how much do you get paid, whether or not
- 20:21you continue in your education process, any of that kind of thing. That
- 20:25that is not a legitimate relationship, and the person in power is exploiting the
- 20:30person beneath them. It's why college professors get censured if they have relationships with
- 20:37their students while their their student is under them in class. Probably not the
- 20:42best wording, but but yeah, like that, you can't you can't do
- 20:47that as a professor. You can't do that as a school teacher, even
- 20:49if your student is an adult. In some states, you can actually get
- 20:53convicted of a crime for that, even if your student is an adult.
- 20:57In the workplace, it's considered workplace harassment. A lot of workplaces have non
- 21:06fraternization policies that basically you can't date in that workplace, or you can't date
- 21:12a supervisor person in a supervisory position, even if they're not your supervisor.
- 21:18Like, just all of that and yet what does Tubins say about this?
- 21:26It says, unsurprisingly, Tubin pedals the standard feminist line that somehow the sexual
- 21:33contact between the men in cages and the women who held the keys was a
- 21:37matter of what else, male power and female helplessness. He doesn't waste much
- 21:41time getting to the point, just six hundred words into a fifty two hundred
- 21:47word article, which is why we're not reading his article. Tuban says,
- 21:52cynical and devious men succeeded in dominating women who were normally they keepers. Can
- 22:00I clarify this is the same Jeffrey Tubin who who was called jacking it on
- 22:04a zoom call. Yes, got like like a year of paid le Even
- 22:08then he just came right back, Yeah, yes, yeah, I mean
- 22:11I am law of work. Projection never misses, definitely. And here's where
- 22:19I'm going to read Richard Bierre's next comment. He gave us a dullar ninety
- 22:25nine and says, maybe this justifies paying women less? Yeah, like and
- 22:33you know, and again I can't argue with that. It doesn't say anything
- 22:37about them dominating them in this way, but paying paying women less wouldn't keep
- 22:42them out of this role, right They wouldn't keep them out of these positions,
- 22:47right, That's kind of the bottom line. What needs to happen is,
- 22:52I mean, I don't know how you do this with like prison guards,
- 22:56but I mean it's it's much like with the military. They reduced the
- 23:03goddamn standards for women to get in. Yeah, right, that needs to
- 23:11fucking change. But I just I don't know what the requirements are to be
- 23:15a prison guard, so I want to start there, but god damn it,
- 23:21I think there needs to be some more extensive like background information into like
- 23:27maybe there's mental health. I don't don't. I could tell you from a
- 23:33family experience, you can become a prison guard right out of university if you
- 23:37have some training in law enforcement. You don't have to have a large or
- 23:44particularly muscular physique. You don't necessarily have to have any kind of training in
- 23:52combat or handling like they train you and that kind of stuff. But to
- 23:57be like certified in anything, you do have to if I remember, right,
- 24:03you do have to have some sort of certification in the law enforcement field,
- 24:15but I don't think it was you don't have to be a cop.
- 24:22And I've actually had a coworker that was a guard in a juvenile facility too.
- 24:26He didn't. I don't think he has that same background. I don't
- 24:30think he's a police officer and like as far as his training goes, but
- 24:33he also had law enforcement training, like he's a probation officer for juveniles now,
- 24:38So like I this is you basically have to be qualified to do that
- 24:45kind of work. But it's that as far as the background check is concerned,
- 24:49if you've never been caught perpetrating, a background check is useless. Background
- 24:53check doesn't catch somebody before their first time committing a crime, and it doesn't
- 25:00catch crimes that are committed in ways that are are geared toward avoiding discovery.
- 25:07So it'll it won't catch a personality. It'll catch a history of commission of
- 25:15crimes, a history of abuse, um that that's been documented. So it's
- 25:21hard to catch women that way. But they could do other things that you
- 25:27know, psychological testing, UM, they could do what in my profession,
- 25:33if you if we have female clients, um, female patients and healthcare also
- 25:41sometimes depending on where you work, they don't allow if it's a situation where
- 25:49the patient or the client is particularly vulnerable to abuse, to to sexual abuse
- 25:56like some some don't have a sense of their own privacy, and it can
- 26:03happen with senile dementia and the elderly, and it can happen with some types
- 26:06of intellectual disability. They just don't put men with as helpers working with those
- 26:15women, and that way there can't be a problem, they think, because
- 26:19they don't consider women capable of that type of abuse. The problem is they
- 26:26don't do the same thing for men, and that's here in the story we're
- 26:33reading. It makes it pretty obvious the same thing needs to be done for
- 26:37men. On the other hand, it may be difficult to fill those positions
- 26:45if they don't hire women. Maybe they're just not paying enough to attract enough
- 26:49men to do that job. And maybe they're imprisoning too many men. Yeah,
- 26:59all good questions. Yeah, but it's just amazing cynical and devious men
- 27:06succeeded in dominating women who were normally their keepers, women who can rank them
- 27:10up and get them in trouble, women who can accuse them and be taken
- 27:15seriously where their word will not weigh as much in any hearing they go through
- 27:22because their inmates somehow were dominated by these men in cages. I'm befuddled by
- 27:32the logic that people who are so convincing couldn't keep their ass out of jail.
- 27:37Yeah, but they can convince these rational, normal thinking females that they
- 27:45should. Yeah. I don't get it. It doesn't work out in I
- 27:52can't compute. They couldn't dominate the judge, that's what it is. Yes,
- 27:56too bad they didn't get a female judge, your honor. Wink wink,
- 28:03nudge nudge. No, I don't think that would work either. So
- 28:10how does he manage the feat of turning the base metal of facts into the
- 28:15gold of feminist mythology. It wasn't easy. Indeed, I'd say he failed
- 28:19altogether. His evidence for the proposition is the thinnest gruel. But I suspect
- 28:26it'll be enough to nourish those who've swallowed the feminist kool aid. Against a
- 28:32backdrop of women clearly acting in their own self interest, Tubin cobbles together a
- 28:37very sorry mishmash of self contradiction and intellectual hocus pocus that would make anyone but
- 28:42a feminist blush. The Baltimore City Detention Center BCDC is over two hundred years
- 28:49old. It's located in a high crime part of the city and houses over
- 28:53two thousand male inmates awaiting trial, sometimes for months or years. Those inmates
- 29:00are seen by are overseen by six hundred and fifty correctional workers. Almost all
- 29:07Yeah, almost all of the inmates and guards are African American and the most
- 29:15powerful gang in the place is called the Black the Black Gorilla. That's g
- 29:22U E r r L the family. Plus it's their name for themselves.
- 29:30It's not somebody else's name for them. So but that just for the podcast
- 29:34listeners who cannot see the text. It's gorilla like guerrilla warfare. So these
- 29:40guys are militant. UH guards are mostly and and no, they were not
- 29:45giving themselves a racist name. UM Guards are mostly called from the surrounding community
- 29:52and few of them, few few men there qualify. Yeah, yeah,
- 29:57I guess that would be another or factor's If it's placed in a high crime
- 30:03neighborhood then and most of the crime in the neighborhood is going to be committed
- 30:08by gang members that takes up most of the men in the neighborhood. There
- 30:12aren't very many men in the neighborhood that would want to do that job that
- 30:17would qualify and I imagine being a man in that neighborhood working in that prison
- 30:25would make you a target among men who live in the neighborhood outside of the
- 30:30prison who are connected to people inside the prison. Yeah. Guards. Guards
- 30:38are mostly called from Yeah, and the job requires a high school diploma,
- 30:44clean youer in, and a clear criminal record, leaving most local men looking
- 30:48elsewhere for work. About seventy five percent of the guards, about four hundred
- 30:52and eighty seven people are women. Fuck's sake. Now, that balance is
- 30:59not the same in the jew an old system. When when I looked into
- 31:02the the Bureau of Justice UM statistics on the juvenile prison system, female guards
- 31:12overall across all of the juvenile detention facilities that were studied, Um, we're
- 31:22like forty five percent of the guards something like that was less than fifty percent,
- 31:29But they were responsible for for ninety five percent of sexual misconduct, so
- 31:38at least the misconduct that was reported by inmates. Yeah. Good lord.
- 31:45And just to remind everyone, this is Baltimore, So I I can totally
- 31:51see that because Baltimore is just I mean, you want to talk about a
- 31:56shit hole. If Baltimore could be a country, it would be a Shiitthhole
- 32:00country. It's just so dilapidated and overlooked, overgrown, forgotten. I mean,
- 32:10the government in that city absolutely ransacked the residents, and um, there's
- 32:21no wonder that people are fleeing at the rate that they are. You know,
- 32:25if you have ever driven down the road in Baltimore, I mean,
- 32:32it's you better have gas in your car. And I'm not even joking.
- 32:37I'm not even joking. You better not run out of gas in Baltimore on
- 32:44the wrong street in the wrong time. It's it's it's bad. It's what
- 32:52I would imagine that, like Chicago is like, but I don't know,
- 32:55I don't it's it's it's horrible that they about so when they described this situation
- 33:04where you know, to be eligible to have this job, you know,
- 33:09you have to a high school diploma. We know there's gonna be more women
- 33:16than have the I can't even imagine that in Baltimore, because, good God,
- 33:23the kids in that school systems. It's a wonder that anyone is even
- 33:30graduating legitimately. I mean, part of the reason that happens is because standards
- 33:36are are lowered in some school systems, and right I wasn't aware of this
- 33:40until my dad told me this story years and years ago. He had a
- 33:45student when he was a fairly young teacher. Actually, so this is not
- 33:51a new problem. Like my dad started teaching in nineteen sixty sixty eight or
- 33:59sixty nine on an emergency certificate and then went back to school for a year
- 34:04to get his actual teaching certificate and then taught ever since. So so we're
- 34:10we're talking a long time ago. But he he had a student that came
- 34:15from an inner city Chicago school to a small community to go to their school
- 34:27system, and he was doing well in his class in Chicago, but he
- 34:34was so far behind the students in the small community that he needed tutoring and
- 34:39he caught up, you know, like Dad helped him catch up. And
- 34:45this this I don't know if this was when he was actually teaching or if
- 34:47this was when he was tutoring when he was in high school. But in
- 34:52any case, I'm not going to tell you who the young man was because
- 34:55he's a business owner now and it's not a small business. But in any
- 35:00case, this is this is the difference between city schools and smaller community schools.
- 35:10You have about half the students in the bigger city schools, their parents
- 35:15really don't care what's going on at the school, or they're not in a
- 35:19position to demonstrate that they care. And you get both, you get both.
- 35:25And I had a friend who was teaching in the Dayton public school system
- 35:30for a few years and one of her students, and we're not talking like
- 35:36a high school kid here, we're talking a young student elementary school, pointed
- 35:39that out to her that she had. They were lining up I think for
- 35:45a fire drill or something. They had to go out the door and they
- 35:47had to go in an orderly fashion and had to be quick, and about
- 35:52a third of the class just would not line up. They were just little
- 35:57Hellians. And the other kids were just standing there watching them and watching the
- 36:02teacher try to round them up, and they knew better than to participate because
- 36:07they didn't want to get bullied later for it. But the one student just
- 36:12turned to her and said, you know the difference between us and them,
- 36:15And you know, my friend says, what's that? And the kid broke
- 36:19her heart. She goes, our parents love us. And it's like,
- 36:25at at the age of you know, elementary school age kid, this kid
- 36:30understood that those kids were ignored by their parents. Those were Those were kids
- 36:37who if the teacher brought treats for the class, they would wrap the treat
- 36:42up in a napkin and save it for after school so they would have something
- 36:45to eat that night. And so you have in a lot of neighborhoods like
- 36:52that, you have the school to prison pipeline isn't just greased by teacher prejudice.
- 36:58It's also greased by local socioeconomic situations. And those local socioeconomic situations also
- 37:07are the school to gang pipeline. Even if the person doesn't go to prison,
- 37:13and they do predispose in particular, the boys in that neighborhood two outcomes
- 37:19that are not advantageous for them, and they're not advantageous for the community.
- 37:23So it is hard are you going to find male guards in a situation like
- 37:29that? Baltimore is probably not abnormal as big cities go in the United States.
- 37:32Right now we are a mix of first world country with a bunch of
- 37:42third world areas. Like we had people in Michigan experiencing lead poisoning in their
- 37:52city water because the city wouldn't fix the water they couldn't afford it. The
- 37:58state wouldn't give them a grant. Federal government wouldn't give him a grant.
- 38:01People had to fight for the right to have the water system they are taxed
- 38:07to maintain provide them with water that was not poisonous. Meanwhile, in the
- 38:16state of California, Nancy Peloshi sitting on about what good three hundred million dollars
- 38:27in restorative funding for projects that just never materialized, and it just bull God.
- 38:39I don't know what it's going to take to shake these people awake and
- 38:45realize. I think a lot of people do real at least I would like
- 38:49to think a lot of people do realize what's happening. But I think their
- 38:52anger and their frustrations are misdirected, right, They're not really They're not really
- 39:02going after the people who are putting these laws in place and and and putting
- 39:12these kids in this situation where this is how their life goes. Right if
- 39:16we if we didn't have such a high male prison population, it would be
- 39:22quite a bit easier to manage them without having sexual predators watch over them.
- 39:32So I have a I have a little bit of a knit to pick with
- 39:42this whole school to prison pipeline thing, because I think a lot of the
- 39:45place, a lot of the blame gets placed indirectly. Right, Um,
- 39:53it's not who is putting these children into the system, it's the women men
- 40:00who are having these children, who can't afford to feed them, properly,
- 40:05house them, properly, clothed them, properly, care for them properly on
- 40:09their own because of you know, through some through no fault of their own,
- 40:15but a majority through their own direct decisions. Right. So, when
- 40:22you have a bunch of children who are living in poverty, you are you
- 40:29are putting your children in these situations for them to grow up in. Right.
- 40:34The single mothers they go to work, they have to work two or
- 40:37three jobs or to feed their kids. Well, who then is there to
- 40:42take care of your kids after the school is done with them? Right?
- 40:46You send them off to school so that they can raise your kids, and
- 40:51then it's so easy to place the blame on this system that use your child
- 40:57too. Oh yeah, right, Well, one of the things the ACLU
- 41:02fails at, like they're they're the ones that coined the term school to prison
- 41:07pipeline. And I would say that it isn't it's not an incorrect term because
- 41:12it's something that came about as in part as a result of um what do
- 41:19they call zero tolerance policies where they basically don't allow the adults to mentor the
- 41:28children. So you've had a spectrum of things happen. First of all,
- 41:31the increase in impoverished single custodial motherhood. And the reason they say custodial motherhood
- 41:40is because this is a situation most of the time, when we're talking about
- 41:45the school to prison pipeline and the kids who experience it, we're talking not
- 41:50just about single moms, but single moms who have soul custody. Maybe the
- 41:54father isn't even in the picture. Maybe they haven't even told the father that
- 42:00he's a dad, Maybe they don't know who the father is. And that
- 42:06situation is we're not allowed to criticize that as a society. We're not allowed
- 42:12to say, what have you done to your child by denying your child a
- 42:16parental relationship, a parent child relationship with his father. Right? And then
- 42:22at on top of that, you know, you usually see this isn't happening
- 42:29in Nancy Pelosi's neighborhood, right. If it does happen in Nancy Pelosi's neighborhood.
- 42:34That chick has a nanny and her family's there to help with the kids,
- 42:39and you know, there's other parents in the neighborhood that that maybe team
- 42:45up with her to help with the situation. And maybe it's happened because you
- 42:49know her her husband died unexpectedly, or cheated with a maid and left,
- 42:55you know, but you like, depending on what kind of relationship she had
- 43:00with him. But in any case, it's not she hooked up with some
- 43:07guy, doesn't know him, doesn't know anything about him, never bothered to
- 43:10follow up with him, had a baby in and just moved on. And
- 43:15so in those neighborhoods where it's more common for that to happen, then you
- 43:21also have the situation where the kids are running wild in the neighborhood when they're
- 43:23not in school. They're fending for themselves against older kids and the criminals in
- 43:29the neighborhood that are adults. They're getting recruited as drug dealers and by gang
- 43:36members who are older than they are, and they're getting pressured with the understanding,
- 43:42this is the only way you can be safe in this neighborhood. If
- 43:44you don't become one of us, you will not be safe, and as
- 43:49a kid, you don't necessarily have the logic to recognize, gosh, if
- 43:53I become part of this gang, I will eventually get shot and says not
- 44:00it's necessarily safer. You don't have somebody that you can go home to and
- 44:04say, you know, Mom, I'm in trouble. These guys are pressuring
- 44:07me to join a gang because mom is busy, and you're afraid you're going
- 44:12to get in trouble with her for being pressured, or she may give you
- 44:15the worst possible advice. Well, you do what you got to do.
- 44:20Bring in some money. We're starving, and whose fault is that hers?
- 44:25Right? So on top of that, then we have the situation of,
- 44:30you know, again, if this were to happen in Nancy Pelosi's neighborhood,
- 44:35there'd be fifty summer programs for those kids, reading programs, math programs,
- 44:40recreational programs where there would be trustworthy adults and the kids would be getting engagement
- 44:49with mentorship and so on. In a neighborhood where you know, you have
- 44:54the single mom who doesn't know who the dad is and is poor and and
- 45:00you know, thinks of herself as unfortunate who starts those programs. It's not
- 45:06the neighborhood moms, right, it's not. It's not anyone in that neighborhood.
- 45:13So it's not anyone who's personally invested in the welfare and outcomes of those
- 45:17kids. And they don't bring people from in the neighborhood to mentor those kids.
- 45:23They're strangers from outside the neighborhood. There're people nobody in the neighborhood knows.
- 45:29How do you know if you trust those people? Right? And if
- 45:32the moms who are the ones that are you know, letting their kids run
- 45:37wild, aren't checking on their kids when there are no programs, are they
- 45:44really going to check into the people that are running those programs, you know?
- 45:49So it's it's one of those situations where the kids get the kids get
- 45:54no mentorship, they get no protection from from criminal elements, they get no
- 46:01assistance in and learning how to navigate the world that they're in, right,
- 46:09and then they go to school and let's say, you know, a little
- 46:15Bob misbehaves in school and his mom is one of those moms that doesn't really
- 46:23care about him, is busy, maybe she's working, maybe she's doing work
- 46:31under the table, you know, and maybe she's doing illicit work under the
- 46:37table, right, she doesn't want to come into school. So when you
- 46:40get disciplined in school, the school contacts your parents, she's going to come
- 46:45in and throw a screaming fit. And more often than not, it's you
- 46:49know, you can't punish my child. There's nothing wrong with my child.
- 46:51My child didn't do anything. He doesn't get the benefit of Okay, maybe
- 46:58don't do that, that's not a good idea. Or you know, maybe
- 47:02maybe mom finds out he was in a fight and then doesn't stand up for
- 47:08if he was defending himself against an attack by the other kid, right,
- 47:14So you get you get the situation where these guys don't have anybody to stand
- 47:17up for them, They don't have anybody to mentor them, they don't have
- 47:21anybody to guide them. And when they find a teacher in the school that
- 47:25is willing to try to guide them, the teacher gets in trouble, you
- 47:30know. And and then there are teachers who prey on these kids too,
- 47:36you know. I like there's been in the last few years, there's been
- 47:39six or seven stories that have just I've just randomly run across about teachers in
- 47:45the Dayton metro area right right around me that have gotten busted for not just
- 47:53molesting a student, but doing so in an environment that the writer of the
- 47:59story deemed us sex party. Like literally, you know, um an orgy,
- 48:09and we're we'ren't talking underage kids Jesus. So it's when we say school
- 48:19to prison pipeline, it sounds like we're talking about this really simplistic. You
- 48:22know. The kids are they go to school and they don't get what they
- 48:25need at school, and then when they get disciplined, the discipline is too
- 48:29harsh, and schools do call police on on ridiculous things like a kid not
- 48:35wanting to take their jacket off because they're cold, you know, or um,
- 48:39a kid getting attacked by another kid and running into the wrong room when
- 48:46they run away and you're not allowed to go in there, call the cops.
- 48:51You know, just stupid things that I've heard of. UM, A
- 48:54kid bringing their um their band, marching band, UM, what's it called.
- 49:05They they're the the the baton twirlers and stuff in the marching band.
- 49:09But this marching band had these wooden replicas of rifles, Like it was a
- 49:19very obvious from it even a distance that this is not a gun. It's
- 49:22just a piece of wood that is shaped vaguely like a gun, and it's
- 49:28designed to be twirled around and you know, um pointed in different directions and
- 49:32looked cool on the football field. And she didn't take it out of the
- 49:36trunk of her car, and somebody found out it was in there and they
- 49:38called the cops on her. Oh my god. Yeah, noo, it's
- 49:45not even our otc It's it's literally it's the baton twirlers. I can't think
- 49:51of what they're called, um, the flag core um there, there's another
- 49:55name for him, but I mean, yeah, it wasn't even a peanut
- 50:00butter and jelly sandwich like sewed into the shape of the gun. Yeah.
- 50:07So yeah, you know, there's there's this whole spectrum of things that are
- 50:12taken place in our schools and the neighborhoods around them that do lead to a
- 50:19lot of young color guard. Master Rode got it as color guard. That's
- 50:22correct, That's what I was trying to think of, And and it just
- 50:29it does result in particular and a lot more boys ending up in the juvenile
- 50:32detention system. You know, it used to be this is before I was
- 50:38a student, well, even when I was a student, if one of
- 50:43the kids wasn't already on probation, If a couple of guys got into a
- 50:45fight in the hallway in school, the school handled it. They did not
- 50:50call police. The boys got detention. Or if one of them clearly started
- 50:54it and the other one was just defending himself, the the instigator got detention
- 50:59and the other one went to the school nurse. Um, you know,
- 51:02and they both did if they needed to, and the nurse was there every
- 51:06day. And now you know you have that system. You also have another
- 51:12system situation happening in schools where they're not allowing students that need emergency medications like
- 51:19asthma inhalers and EpiPens and stuff to carry them because of years of drug Yeah,
- 51:24I'm I'm not this is this is not even new. This is at
- 51:28least twenty years old. Now, um, this has been happening. So
- 51:34if you have an inhaler, an emergency inhaler that you're supposed to use the
- 51:37minute and asthma attack starts, you have to go get it from the school
- 51:43nurse in the middle of the asma attack. Now, you if you carry
- 51:46an epic and in some school systems they don't have an exception um. Same
- 51:52with an EpiPen, So if you are allergic to something badly enough that you
- 51:57need an EpiPen, you have like five minutes if you're lucky, if you're
- 52:01really lucky, to use that EpiPen before the allergy will kill you. It
- 52:07causes your immune system to stop your heart and suffocate you to death, and
- 52:13was accompanied by incredibly painful inflammation of all of you, all of your soft
- 52:22tissues. You know, I've been through this, I've been in anaphylactic shock.
- 52:25It's usually you don't remember things that happen when you were four years old,
- 52:30and I remember this very, very vividly. It hurt so bad and
- 52:35it was terrifying, And the only non painful part of that memory is looking
- 52:42back and realizing that the doctor was not promising to do a trick. He
- 52:45was telling my parents if if my body didn't start reacting to the medicine,
- 52:50he was going to have to trake me. So it was a very serious
- 52:53situation, and fortunately I was in the hospital already, so an EpiPen and
- 53:00well was an epi syringe was immediately available. But in a school system,
- 53:07you know where you might it might take four minutes to walk from the part
- 53:13of the building where the allergy happens, like the cafeteria, to the other
- 53:17part of the building where the school nurse is, and they just send the
- 53:21student with someone else to walk with them, or they send a student to
- 53:24go get it and bring it back, or they send somebody to go get
- 53:28the nurse. Like that, the amount of time it can take to get
- 53:32that medication to the student, it is way too long. And then on
- 53:36top of that, in some school systems, the nurse isn't there every day,
- 53:43and there have been students who have died and their parents have sued the
- 53:46schools because their student died in school due to the lack of a present school
- 53:55nurse, making their inhaler or their EpiPen unavailable. Girls reason number five million
- 54:07and twenty one that I could not have kids. I don't know what I
- 54:12would do if my child was in need of medicine that was available to him
- 54:17to save his life and it took it just took too long because he couldn't
- 54:23have it on him on his person. I mean, and I like,
- 54:29I literally went to school every day from the time I was thirteen until I
- 54:31graduated with an inhaler in my pocket. I mean, I carry mine every
- 54:38day. I don't know what I would do if somebody tried to look at
- 54:40me in my face and tell me that I couldn't have it. Fuck you,
- 54:45I don't need then, I don't need to be here. Yeah,
- 54:50oh my god. I only ever had one teacher didn't understand the situation,
- 54:54and she got in big trouble. Ohio has a different guideline, and then
- 55:00a lot of other states. You can have it on you, but you
- 55:04have to have a doctor physicians. Note that says why, which makes sense,
- 55:10among other things. If you know, Billy passes out in class and
- 55:17the teacher is aware that Billy carries an EpiPen because he's allergic to bee stings,
- 55:23and then she realizes there's a bee in the classroom and Billy has a
- 55:27red spot, then she knows to use that EpiPen, you know. Whereas
- 55:31if the teacher has no idea what's going on and Billy passes out in class,
- 55:35she won't know what to do. So I wonder, I wonder,
- 55:43I don't know why my mind is going here, but I wonder if maybe
- 55:47somebody got attacked with an EpiPen, because what would happen if you injected someone
- 55:54that was not in an anaphylactic shock with an EpiPen, Like, what would
- 55:59happened? Well, what it does is it suppresses the immune response, and
- 56:06it kicks your um, your heart and your lungs and high gear. It
- 56:12would be a very unpleasant experience, but it wouldn't kill you. You could
- 56:17use an epipin on somebody and not kill them even if they weren't having it,
- 56:22but I would. You would still they would have to go to the
- 56:23hospital. You Now, if you had a young child like this happened to
- 56:30me when I was four, If I'd been hit with an EpiPen at four
- 56:34years old, I probably would have had a heart attack. I probably would
- 56:37have had a you know, And and if they have any potential for a
- 56:39stroke, that's also a risk. Yeah, but at a fully sized you
- 56:47know, somebody that weighs one hundred and fifty pounds or more um, that's
- 56:51it's less likely for them to you know, unless they have an underlying heart
- 56:55condition. That's it's less like, but it's it's definitely not an ideal situation.
- 57:00You still have to go to the hospital. To make sure you didn't
- 57:02have a heart attack or a stroke or some other you know, like if
- 57:07if you had any potential for um aneurysm or any kind of like basically a
- 57:14vein blowout. They just want to make sure you're safe, and you have
- 57:16to do that. If you use an EpiPen to stop an allergic reaction too,
- 57:20you still have to go to the hospital. Really, Oh yeah,
- 57:22yeah, it's it's very dangerous to epinefron is um it's as substitute for adrenaline.
- 57:32So when you know how when somebody else really loud and you jump and
- 57:37then afterward your heart like pounds for a few seconds, epinefron does that to
- 57:42you on a much bigger scale. Okay, so and it's now um it's
- 57:50it's similar also to the effectives like pseudo ephedrin, like it'll do they all
- 57:57do similar things, um decongest stance, And it's just it'd be like if
- 58:04you had a massive overdose on on some form of a fedra. It just
- 58:07it's not good for your system and it's not good to put your heart in
- 58:12that condition where it's like pounding like that. That's why people talk about adrenaline
- 58:16junkies and everything. Well, you're you're a lot more likely to have damage
- 58:23from that than you think. Not because your natural your body's natural system m
- 58:30does damage to itself just out of hand. But the human body is made
- 58:36to give itself a lot of energy in a situation where you should be scared
- 58:42and fighting back or trying to escape, but it's not intended to survive having
- 58:47to do that over and over again all the time. Yeah, so so
- 58:52there is that. But in any case, yeah, that that environment.
- 58:55So there's that that environment in which administrators care more about making policies that look
- 59:01good than they do about whether the kids die from from a health condition that
- 59:08we've been able to treat for like eighty years or so with with um a
- 59:16simple solution and like that, that is the situation that our students are going
- 59:23to school in. So what what what theoretically then would happen to a child
- 59:30that might spontaneously need CPR in the classroom like our teachers required to have be
- 59:37a CPR. Okay, So then now I would think in my mind right,
- 59:44the logical thing to do would be if your child has an EpiPen or
- 59:49an inhaler, if this is what you because it sounds like it's really mostly
- 59:53just for leality's sake, right, they just want to cover their ass in
- 59:58case something happened, you know, somebody oops, accidentally gets stuck with this
- 1:00:04pen. And now there's a whole situation. Right. Well, what if
- 1:00:07the student then checks their medication in with the teacher until their class is over?
- 1:00:14And see, you know, that's that's another one. You'd have to
- 1:00:16have the student carry in the medicine from class to class. Now, in
- 1:00:20early elementary school, it would it make sense to have the medicine in the
- 1:00:27classroom right right with the student. And that's that's what my school did.
- 1:00:35But in later you know, in junior high, in high school, a
- 1:00:39thirteen year old can keep track of their inhaler. A thirteen year old can
- 1:00:44keep track of an EpiPen. And a thirteen year old is believe it or
- 1:00:46not, aware of their own mortality and able to appraise the potential threats of
- 1:00:53I will not abuse this, I will not give this to somebody else,
- 1:00:57because if I need it and I don't have it, I'm fucked right.
- 1:01:00A thirteen year old can do that, A twelve year old can do that.
- 1:01:02In some cases, a ten year old can do that, right,
- 1:01:06But the schools do not trust the students to do that, and they don't
- 1:01:09trust the students to leave that kid alone and not take their medicine. And
- 1:01:15that's it's a really serious situation. And the solution seems to be to withhold
- 1:01:20the medicine from the kid. And just for the record, just so people
- 1:01:24understand the gender significance of this. Asthma affects boys more frequently than girls.
- 1:01:32Boys with asthma more often have it more seriously, and there are more deaths
- 1:01:38of boys under these circumstances. They are less likely to be believed by their
- 1:01:45teachers and the school administrators, by the school nurse when they come in and
- 1:01:49say I can't breathe. And part of it is they're less likely to panic
- 1:01:53and cry. Girls panic and cry yeah so but yeah. And by the
- 1:02:01way, the other thing, when they give you an epy shot to the
- 1:02:04chest and you see that in the movies, and they always like, you
- 1:02:07know, they're right up and they're all energetic, and you feel like you
- 1:02:12got kicked in the chest by by a donkey and somebody stuck a straw in
- 1:02:15the back of your head and sucked all the energy out of you're just laying
- 1:02:19there going, oh my gott in. Your heart's pounding and you're just getting
- 1:02:22your oxygen back. Everything fucking hurts. You're not gonna get up and immediately
- 1:02:28be like rare and to go, you know, unless you were in a
- 1:02:31situation where you were in a panic. Um, if it's because of an
- 1:02:36allergic reaction, uh, that that doesn't work that way at all. They
- 1:02:40like, that's movie magic. It's not real. Um, it's not pleasant.
- 1:02:45You just wait until they're giving school kids the daily dose of fentiel instead
- 1:02:51of milk. It's going to get a great deal of icon breathe at that
- 1:02:53point. Then it's going to get blamed and all sorts of things other than
- 1:02:57the thing that you know, they might as well be. Yeah, yeah,
- 1:03:01they might as well be though. And this is something that you know,
- 1:03:05I was really vigilant against when my kids were in school because and they
- 1:03:07do this more to boys and girls. They've been drugging students since I was
- 1:03:13in school, and it was it was not as common for you know,
- 1:03:21early to mid gen xers, but as as we got into like the late
- 1:03:25part of gen X and the early part of the gen Y, millennial generation,
- 1:03:31you saw more and more instances where it wasn't the child's doctor saying,
- 1:03:38in response to the mother talking about particular behavioral symptoms, why I think your
- 1:03:44child has ADHD, Let's try this drug called riddling. It was school teachers
- 1:03:52and school administrators telling the mother, we can't keep your child under control if
- 1:03:59you don't put them on this drug. We're going to expel him and he
- 1:04:01can't come back and he won't get an education. And the mother's complying.
- 1:04:09They without question, they just go to the doctor. The school says,
- 1:04:12my kid. As add schools would even tell parents what doctors to go to
- 1:04:17to get the medication, and the whole classrooms would, like the South Park
- 1:04:24episode on this was not wrong. It was. It wasn't even I can't
- 1:04:29even classify at his parody and so like that. I was fortunate I did
- 1:04:34not have to fight that battle. But I, like I knew before my
- 1:04:38kid got into school that he was pretty normal in terms of energy levels and
- 1:04:43attention span and all that he didn't have like an especially good attention spanner an
- 1:04:47especially bad one. I was not going. I was ready to fight tooth
- 1:04:53and nail to keep him from being drugged for something like that. You know,
- 1:04:57now, if they'd come along and said, well, he's going through
- 1:04:59depression and that I would have taken very seriously because our runs in the family.
- 1:05:02But that that never happened either, Right when that happened, when when
- 1:05:09you know, he went through stuff like that, it was him who came
- 1:05:12to me and told me, not a teacher. And unfortunately, you have
- 1:05:15the situation where a significant portion of the students in the United States are drugged
- 1:05:25because their schools are recommending it. But then they won't let them take treatment
- 1:05:29for asthma, you know, where they won't let them carry emergency treatment for
- 1:05:35allergens that that may be common. You know, they'll they'll change the entire
- 1:05:41environment and tell you you can't send peanut butter sandwiches to school with your kid,
- 1:05:45but they won't let the kid with the peanut allergy carry an EpiPen.
- 1:05:50It's yeah, it's so stupid, it's so stupid, and it's unconscionable,
- 1:05:58you know what I mean. And these the people that claim to care about
- 1:06:00your kids, they do not. And then we wonder, then we wonder
- 1:06:06how they end up in you know, in an adult detention facility. Getting
- 1:06:12getting molested by the female guards. So in twenty fourteen, when this was
- 1:06:18written, the article said, there's currently a federal investigation underway into criminal activities
- 1:06:27inside the bc DC Baltimore Community Detention Center, and nine inmates and twenty seven
- 1:06:33guards have been indicted. And just just for the record, that does not
- 1:06:39mean that the nine inmates were sexually violating anybody. They may have been dealing
- 1:06:43drugs in the prison, because that actually happens a lot. There's there's whole
- 1:06:46businesses getting run in prison by Yeah. Much of Tubin's article relies on information
- 1:06:56gleaned from that that investigation, including wire taps and cell phones used by inmates.
- 1:07:04From the look of things, the BCDC was the wild West. Inside
- 1:07:10the walls and out, pretty much anything was for sale into the jail.
- 1:07:15I guess that answers my question, which was how the fucking inmates aren't supposed
- 1:07:21to have cell phones? But I guess anything is for sale. Yeah.
- 1:07:28Well, and see that's the thing. If um, if the prison doesn't
- 1:07:33have a rule against them having a thing, you know, and the guards
- 1:07:39allow it in or the administration allows it in, you know, a visitor
- 1:07:43can bring anything. I'll bet there were prisoners that had Obama phones, so
- 1:07:49like that was that was a thing. Um, they get all kinds of
- 1:07:56they all, they get all kinds of things. And then then you also
- 1:07:59have of yeah to then you also have people in the prison system who are
- 1:08:03in there because despite being highly book smart, intelligent, they're not very wise
- 1:08:13about the actions they choose, or they get involved with the wrong people,
- 1:08:17or they have no ethics or morals. Yeah, they make their own cell
- 1:08:21phones, you know, they make they make their own two way radios,
- 1:08:27they make their own ship they make. I mean, if you can,
- 1:08:30if you can understand the UM way the object works, what it takes to
- 1:08:36create one, you can make one. Yeah. So you know, like
- 1:08:42the IQ range in prison is probably closer to the lower end. There are
- 1:08:46people that are probably more UM disadvantaged, and that that does create a situation
- 1:08:56where they're more likely to get into trouble if they do something wrong, and
- 1:09:00they're more likely to to think they have to do something wrong in order to
- 1:09:04survive or not be able to get out of you know, if they're being
- 1:09:09um recruited into a gang and stuff like that. But there are people in
- 1:09:15prison who are absolute genius too, and fully capable of making their own electronic
- 1:09:20devices, including tasers. There have been guards that have been injured that way
- 1:09:26where somebody made a makeshift taser and tased the guard. Holy shit, I
- 1:09:30mean it results in you going into solitary. But you get you know,
- 1:09:34there there been incidents like that. What did you think was going to happen
- 1:09:41by well, I mean, I guess, but it probably feels pretty damn
- 1:09:44good in the moment if that guard was me to you, or you feel
- 1:09:45like that guard was me to you exactly, or if he was someone that
- 1:09:49was like coming after you and just really vindictive towards you and allowing certain things
- 1:09:57to happen, or you know, you know that a hit is about to
- 1:10:01come and you gotta take somebody. People. I don't know. I just
- 1:10:06know all I know is what I see on TV and gotten him. And
- 1:10:11this ship looks shady as hell well and any other thing representation right Like,
- 1:10:17it's not a nice place there. There's a lot of people out there that
- 1:10:20are looking to take advantage anyway, shape or form they can get it from
- 1:10:26you, and also be remember you know, it's said earlier in the article
- 1:10:30that the guards in the prison come from the neighborhood where the prison is,
- 1:10:35and it is a bad neighborhood. It's a rough neighborhood, right, So
- 1:10:41they're assuming that the women are qualified because they graduated high school. They're not
- 1:10:47considering the fact that there are female gang members and there are female gangs like
- 1:10:53there are they're gangs. They're not necessarily gendered, but there's whole whole female
- 1:10:59sides of the business and everything. There are female gang leaders. You know.
- 1:11:05That's you don't necessarily get a less criminal population when you're hiring from among
- 1:11:15women than from among men. You just hire from a population that's less likely
- 1:11:20to get caught. When they do get caught, they're less likely to get
- 1:11:24in trouble. When they do get in trouble, it's less likely to be
- 1:11:28as bad. Right, They're less likely to get convicted. They're less likely
- 1:11:33to even get prosecuted. Even if they get arrested, they're less likely to
- 1:11:36be heavily sentenced, and it's less likely to last on their records, so
- 1:11:41they're able to fly under the radar. So if a gang wanted to create
- 1:11:46a network in a prison system where they could get product and money to the
- 1:11:55men in the prison, they would do that by having some of the women
- 1:12:02in the gang become part of the prison system, you know, like as
- 1:12:08guards, as their prison librarian, as if there's a prison school of any
- 1:12:15kind, education system of any kind that's usually run by women, all of
- 1:12:21that. So yeah, they would, they would definitely have a network in
- 1:12:25there. So according to the research into the jail came tobacco, marijuana,
- 1:12:38prescription drugs, and food, most of it under the control of the Black
- 1:12:43Guerrilla Family and its headman, Tavon White. M Payment by and to the
- 1:12:49gang was handled via cell phones controlled also controlled by the BGF are. They
- 1:12:58use of Green Dot and money Pack debit cards, So for people who have
- 1:13:02never used those types of cards, when you buy like a Green Dot card
- 1:13:11or a money Pack card, you pay for the card, you pay the
- 1:13:15amount of money that's supposed to get put on the card, and it's immediately
- 1:13:19available for spending. You don't have to weigh any twenty four hour period or
- 1:13:24nothing, and it can all immediately be removed, so somebody can take it
- 1:13:28to an ATM or use it with a bank account on a computer and remove
- 1:13:35the money you get it, get the cash back, take it to a
- 1:13:39store, buy whatever they want, and I think in the prison system the
- 1:13:45commissary uses those cards, if I remember right that one, if that's the
- 1:13:54case, like that one was described to me by an individual who was in
- 1:13:58the system for a while. But those cars were also used by scammers.
- 1:14:05So for instance, if somebody wanted to get you know you, to get
- 1:14:14you for three or four thousand dollars, they might tell you that you won
- 1:14:17a Mercedes. And I had a customer this happened to when I worked at
- 1:14:20the pharmacy. She came in trying to buy a Green Dot card to pay
- 1:14:26the taxes on the Mercedes that she had won. And immediately I'm like,
- 1:14:31do you know the person that you're paying this to? Do you know the
- 1:14:35name of the company or anything. Have you checked this out? Because this
- 1:14:40is a very popular scam. Oh no, I've got a Mercedes coming to
- 1:14:43me, you know. And and eventually I got her to check into it,
- 1:14:49and she had been scammed for something like eighteen hundred bucks and was in
- 1:14:55the process of continuing to pay another another thousand bucks of of taxes on Mercedes
- 1:15:01that didn't exist. Oh my god. Um, that's that's game has been
- 1:15:06around for a while, all right, So like those cards are very unsecure,
- 1:15:15and gangs use them a lot. Um, terrorists use them, scam
- 1:15:18artists use them. They get used more by illegitimate purposes than by legitimate.
- 1:15:24Um. So yeah, they're very much and they're worried about bitcoin. They
- 1:15:30made this big fucking stick about bitcoin. It's gonna be used to you know,
- 1:15:34conductive legal trick. You mean like the regular fiat dollar, you assholes,
- 1:15:40And come on, j oh, the hypacricy, it just it burns.
- 1:15:45Yeah, yeah, it really does. Uh, it's it's just ridiculous.
- 1:15:51Um. But but yeah, that's basically so. In the prison system,
- 1:15:56they're using these cards too. As the major motive communications cell phones two
- 1:16:01become valuable contraband inside the jail, and it's it's not that hard to get
- 1:16:08a hold of one under the indifferent eye of the jail's administration. Businesses boomed,
- 1:16:13with inmates often making more money than they could on the outside. Yeah.
- 1:16:19And when you can get like you can get food, you can get
- 1:16:24cigarettes, you can get you know, drugs, you can get whatever you
- 1:16:27want in there. How how is that supposed to be rehabilitating anybody? Right,
- 1:16:36It's not. It's when you understand that it's a business instead of anything
- 1:16:44that they claim it's supposed to be. Yea other than keeping these people out
- 1:16:47of and again, this is not even keeping people out of society. If
- 1:16:51they can interact with society, that's the whole point. Holy shit, sending
- 1:16:57these motherfuckers to Romanian jail. You can't do shit over there. Apparently all
- 1:17:01that you can, well, I'm sure you can if you know the right
- 1:17:05people and you speak the right fucking language. But yeah, you pay the
- 1:17:10right bribes. Yeah, but this is just ridiculous. Yeah, it's almost
- 1:17:16like rehabilitation, isn't the point. It's not. It's not because it's God.
- 1:17:25It's just like the fucking medical profession. They don't treat you to heal
- 1:17:29you. They want customers. They want you to keep coming back. That's
- 1:17:34why the fucking recidimism rate is what it is. Right, So it goes
- 1:17:41on and and here's the here's another point to make all Right, So you
- 1:17:45got you got the guys that do that. You got the guys with the
- 1:17:47green dot cards and the cell phones and the drugs and the network of female
- 1:17:53gang members that they're working with and so on. Right, and those guys
- 1:17:59are in and out of the system doing whatever they want, not being rehabilitated,
- 1:18:04don't care, you know whatever. Then you got the guys who do
- 1:18:12one stupid thing and they end up in there for like eighteen months or something,
- 1:18:18and and they're trying to rehabilitate themselves or trying to get back on their
- 1:18:26feet and everything. And part of what they have to deal with in jail,
- 1:18:31part of what they have to survive is the empire created by these guys.
- 1:18:42So and for example, it says Trayvon White bought a BMW and a
- 1:18:47Mercedes Benz while in the bc DC one intercepted phone call and reveal what I'm
- 1:19:00saying. He netted over fifteen thousand dollars per month. Oh my god.
- 1:19:08And this is this again, written in twenty fourteen. If you worked at
- 1:19:13McDonald's, you probably made about fifteen thousand dollars a year a year, right,
- 1:19:19not bad for a man living in a cage. But of course,
- 1:19:23none of the contraband that was at the heart of the inmates enterprise made it
- 1:19:30into the jail without the guard's help. Guards enthusiastically participated in the sale of
- 1:19:36contraband inside the BCDC. Female guards smuggled the contraband into the facility, concealing
- 1:19:46it quote in their underwear, hair, internally and elsewhere, according to a
- 1:19:54government filing, elsewhere, internally and elsewhere. This this mean that when you
- 1:20:00go into a prison, like we know internally internally obviously in your mouth and
- 1:20:05you and your vagina and your ass right internally, but elsewhere has to be
- 1:20:15like they're bringing in bags, they're bringing in purses, Yeah, they're bringing
- 1:20:18in wallets, they're bringing in backpacks, and nobody's searching them, right because
- 1:20:24they're guards. Plenty of guards took part. Between sixty percent and seventy five
- 1:20:31percent of the female guards were involved in this smuggling and sale of contraband.
- 1:20:38Ess Christ, Jesus Christ, And here's the fucking kicker. Here's the fucking
- 1:20:45kicker. All right, let's say you hold all of these bitches up against
- 1:20:50the wall and say, fuck you, you lose your job. You have
- 1:20:54to go. Who they replacing them with people from the community. Well,
- 1:21:00but but where that's dominated by gangs or or or that's the thing they can't.
- 1:21:08So these people will get what a citation, a slap on the wrist.
- 1:21:12Are they really gonna get any kind of consequences? For this. Are
- 1:21:15they gonna lose their jobs? Absolutely fucking not. They make maybe they'll get
- 1:21:20sent home without pay for a couple of weeks, maybe a month or two,
- 1:21:25you know what I mean. But sixty to seventy five percent of the
- 1:21:29female guards, which they already said, with seventy five percent of the guard
- 1:21:34staff in total m in total. Yeah, he did the math. He
- 1:21:41said, that's between two hundred ninety two and three hundred and sixty five female
- 1:21:44guards joining the fund in prison system. This is just one prison out of
- 1:21:48many in the United States. And uh, yeah, it goes on.
- 1:21:56Why did they do it? Money? Of course? The limited supply I
- 1:22:00have all types of contraband inside the prison meant prices were stratospheric. A single
- 1:22:04gram of pot fetched fifty dollars or fourteen hundred dollars an ounce. Damn.
- 1:22:13Female guards supplemented their regular incomes by buying cheaply on the outside and selling dearly
- 1:22:18inside the walls. One guard, Andrea Rice, was recorded by the FEDS
- 1:22:24thus when I when I came back into jail, I'm like, shit,
- 1:22:28I'm not going to stop making my money. You feel me? I seen
- 1:22:31what the fuck was going on? Let Okay. When I came back into
- 1:22:39jail, I'm like, shit, I'm not gonna stop making my money.
- 1:22:42You feel me? Seeing what the fund was going on, asked a few
- 1:22:45people what was up and who was what? What was what? I'm just
- 1:22:48about my money, you hear me. I love money. I love it,
- 1:22:51swear to God jus. And this is a guard, she's not a
- 1:23:00prisoner. So again, these might have been arrested for crimes, right,
- 1:23:11These these men have been have been arrested for crimes. We know some of
- 1:23:14them may have been in there because of false allegations, but they've been arrested
- 1:23:16for crimes, right, They've been convicted. They've been put into a system
- 1:23:24that is intended to rehabilitate them, according to the description. I don't I
- 1:23:28don't believe the prison system is intended to rehabilitate. But that's what we are
- 1:23:30told. We are taxed to pay for this shit. This this uh imprisonment
- 1:23:35of these men on the idea that it will rehabilitate them or at least stop
- 1:23:43them from continuing to commit crimes. And these women who are the guards in
- 1:23:47this prison system are doing this for themselves with with you know, no benefit
- 1:23:58to the inmates in terms of rehabilitation and no benefit to the community at all.
- 1:24:04Right, the in my inmates just end up not having any reason to
- 1:24:10stop committing crimes. They may live their whole life in and out of the
- 1:24:14prison system in part because this shit's getting facilitated and they there's there's no downside
- 1:24:19for them. The BCDC was just the place for her. Rodney, a
- 1:24:30thirty nine year old former inmates, said they can buy a ten dollar pill
- 1:24:33on the street and sell it for a hundred dollars. Others spoke of cigarettes
- 1:24:38sold for a dollar apiece, a dollar a cigarette. Guards would buy percocet
- 1:24:45on the street for five dollars a pill or obtain it free through medicaid fraud.
- 1:24:50And this is another thing. In twenty fourteen, if you went to
- 1:24:56the hospital with an injury, it was easier to get percocet than it was
- 1:25:02to get zithromax. You know, you go in and complain of a sinus
- 1:25:09infection and tell them you know it's an infection and not allergies. Because it's
- 1:25:12painful and there's pressure. They don't they don't give you something to treat the
- 1:25:15infection, but that you get you get a prescription for vikinging like it's it's
- 1:25:20just crazy. That's not the same. I don't I don't think anymore.
- 1:25:25But it was back then, so guards would would get percocet and then sell
- 1:25:30it for fifty dollars a pill on the inside. Well, I don't understand
- 1:25:33is people on the inside. I'm just walking around with cash and they're certainly
- 1:25:39not paying for things with credit cards. So there's something we're not being told
- 1:25:44about this exchange, right, Apparently they are actually sell them for a hundred
- 1:25:48dollars, because no one in a prison just has one hundred, like physical
- 1:25:54dollars. Well, there's changing something else. I try to think what that
- 1:26:00even is. Well, you remember how this article started out. There is
- 1:26:06a bit of a sexual favorite things. But you also have, um,
- 1:26:14you know, if if these guards are preying on the prisoners sexually and they're
- 1:26:18treating that relationship as a legitimate relationship, they may be giving the prisoners money.
- 1:26:26Um, you also have prisoners getting this contraband and then they're selling it.
- 1:26:30The guy selling the contraband keeps his share, right, the guy selling
- 1:26:34it to the other prisoners keeps his share, and he has to pay the
- 1:26:39guard Like so everybody gets a cut, and there are prisoners in there that
- 1:26:43are walking around with money because of that, and people this happens through.
- 1:26:49It's either visitors there were somehow able to smuggle things through. Can they just
- 1:26:56bring it in in their pockets because they don't get checked. It's either that
- 1:26:59or the gods themselves. Yeah, the employees themselves. It's not an or
- 1:27:03situation. It's all of those. Yeah. I mean, in terms of
- 1:27:09businesses, surely they check their pockets. I mean, they could do it
- 1:27:13through through any given airports or court systems. Surely they do even more stringently
- 1:27:20in a prison. I mean, but if they get a tip off that
- 1:27:24somebody's coming in to see a certain inmate, then the guards can look the
- 1:27:28other way, you know, you send a tip down the line exactly.
- 1:27:31That's how it goes. You know, if there's a whole gang mafia thing
- 1:27:35going on in there, like this is the thing just rapists that they're also
- 1:27:44frauds, they're they're um organized criminals. This is what this article is.
- 1:27:53Organized crime in the United States is huge. Um. There isn't a city
- 1:27:59in the United States that does not have a major element of organized crime,
- 1:28:04both in the bad neighborhoods, you know, the high crime neighborhoods, and
- 1:28:12in its government system, and then in the prison system, organized crime exists
- 1:28:19among the inmates, the guards, and the administrators. There's organized crime involvement
- 1:28:30in our judicial system, in our law enforcement system, in our school system
- 1:28:40like this is and and this started with women. Prohibition opened the door.
- 1:28:48It's what made them, it's what made bootleggers popular, part of what made
- 1:28:57the mafia um powerful, and it created an environment that when drug prohibition came
- 1:29:06about also as a result of women demanding safety nets, that led to organized
- 1:29:13crime. When more drug prohibition came about, when it was expanded, we
- 1:29:18got more organized crime. And then we got the manufacturer of strange and weird
- 1:29:29things like crystal mess or out of that and more organized crime. And when
- 1:29:35the prison system became largely about managing the organized crime in the United States,
- 1:29:44it just became another system for organized crime to take over in use. And
- 1:29:49that's what we're looking at here. But in among that you still have again
- 1:29:59these these women who are part of this system of organized crime, who become
- 1:30:06sexually involved with the inmates. And it's not necessarily always inmates who are part
- 1:30:14of their organization, it's just whoever they decide they want. So all of
- 1:30:20this stuff that we're talking about here, all of this organized criminal activity,
- 1:30:25and it is pretty much like multi level marketing, but with guns and getting
- 1:30:36arrested when you get caught, if you're not already in the prison system,
- 1:30:41they don't have to arrest you. Then they just send you to trial for
- 1:30:44it. But with literally a captive market. So that's the other thing.
- 1:30:50Right, If you're addicted to something and you live in a neighborhood where you
- 1:30:59can come and go from your apartment, you can get a job, you
- 1:31:00can go to a rehab center and stay there and get clean, and then
- 1:31:04go back to your apartment and go back to work. If you discover that
- 1:31:09living in that neighborhood makes it difficult for you to resist falling off the wagon
- 1:31:16of your addiction, you can move to another neighborhood, get another job somewhere
- 1:31:21else, change your friend group, and maybe try to find ways to support
- 1:31:31yourself in maintaining a healthy lifestyle as opposed to indulging in the addiction. And
- 1:31:40if you're in prison, you can't do any of those things. You can't
- 1:31:42move to another neighborhood, you can't change your friend group. You know,
- 1:31:45like your friend group are the people that that you run with for protection to
- 1:31:49keep yourself from getting the shit kicked out of you by the other inmates or
- 1:31:54killed, so they don't. You can't just create a support system for yourself
- 1:32:01or build with other people a support system for yourself to get clean. It's
- 1:32:09a lot more work if you're in an environment where you're captive and this kind
- 1:32:14of shit is going on. So with literally a captive market and huge markups
- 1:32:20for all goods sold inside, it's no surprise that so many guards got in
- 1:32:25on the action. And this is this is one where I think most people
- 1:32:29are naive about this. The guards didn't come there, discover the situation and
- 1:32:33say I want to be part of this. I'm one hundred percent certain that
- 1:32:36some of those guards were part of the gangs on the outside that we're operating
- 1:32:45on the inside, and became guards in order to facilitate business, their agents
- 1:32:53essentially of the gang. Nor is it a surprise that some of the guards
- 1:32:57became sexually involved with inmates. Some percentage of women will always be attracted to
- 1:33:02the wealthy, the powerful, and the famous. That's true in everyday life.
- 1:33:08And it was true in the BCDC, where a clear hierarchy of inmates
- 1:33:13ruled as virtual potentiates, and some of them, like Trayvon White, were
- 1:33:17affluent as well as White bragged on the phone one day, I got elevated
- 1:33:24to this seat, where as though nobody in the jail could outrank me,
- 1:33:28like, I am the law. So if I told any motherfucking buddy,
- 1:33:32they had to do this, hit a police, do this, kill a
- 1:33:34motherfucker anything, it got to be done period. The guy basically could order
- 1:33:42hits from prison with power and money like that. They were they were coursed,
- 1:33:53they were manipulated by the men. Yeah, with power and many like
- 1:34:00this. It's no surprise that female guards would be attracted to White, and
- 1:34:02of course his inmate subordinates benefited from much the same type of privilege. Guards
- 1:34:08made good money and contraband that no one bought or sold without the permission of
- 1:34:14the b GF. Therefore, guards and the gang's chiefs had important financial relationships
- 1:34:23that those led to sex. Was like one domino knocking down another. Yeah,
- 1:34:30the guards seemed to have been very enthusiastic about sex with inmates. One
- 1:34:34of White's paramours. Jennifer Owens was recorded saying this, Oh jeez, this
- 1:34:45is going to piss you off too. We and my sisters, we was
- 1:34:48talking, right, So I said, you know what makes me stay with
- 1:34:51him sex? It's that I have two babies by him. Leave him for
- 1:34:56what? No one's going to give me sex like that? Yeah, I
- 1:35:09guess she's not attracted to accountants. One law review article describe the attraction inmates
- 1:35:15had regards this way. In reported narratives of women who became sexually involved with
- 1:35:21men in custody. They spoke of all the benefits of partnering that they were
- 1:35:26denied in relationships outside of custodial settings, and that they had access to inside.
- 1:35:30They described male inmates physical and emotional availability. They also described feeling in
- 1:35:39control of the relationship. Boy, did they sound victimized? Like you think
- 1:35:46about this right? The emotional availability really quick? All right? That is
- 1:35:50a man who knows, first of all, what side is bread is buttered
- 1:35:56on. You've got to butter this woman up because she is in control of
- 1:36:00him. Second of all, he knows where the threat comes from. What
- 1:36:08can she do to him if he doesn't make her happy? If he doesn't
- 1:36:12keep her happy, and they're the woman feeling in control of the relationship.
- 1:36:16But yes, you know, these cynical and devious inmates dominated these controlling and
- 1:36:24demanding women. Yeah, you know what, I think a bigger discussion needs
- 1:36:32to be had around women's sexual desires and their like they just don't really like
- 1:36:47that's their impetus for everything, right Like, and I think it's beyond the
- 1:36:55innate need or desire to procreate. Right. This is not that I think
- 1:37:02these women just want to be able to do whatever the hell they want to
- 1:37:08do. They want to be promiscuous, they want to be out here and
- 1:37:11just and their desire for this sex, right is it's a problem. It's
- 1:37:19a big problem because number one, it creates unwanted children. Number Two,
- 1:37:29you get yourself in risky situations. And then they turn around and blame the
- 1:37:33men, right like. Oh, and there's no accountability being given to them
- 1:37:41for it, right And it's that is why we are where we are in
- 1:37:47society, right because it's not her fault. Oh, she was she was
- 1:37:53just doing her she was just living her best life. Okay, well,
- 1:37:59living her best life. Her best decisions got her in the position that she's
- 1:38:03in. Now and now what she wants is a bailout program from society.
- 1:38:10When you think about this, that woman had two babies with a guy who
- 1:38:15was a career criminal, who was in prison, who was never going to
- 1:38:20be a normal you know, dad in the house, going to work,
- 1:38:26coming home, you know, hanging out, reading stories with the kids and
- 1:38:30playing baseball in the backyard. You know, he was going to go back
- 1:38:33and forth between the street in the prison system until he was in until death,
- 1:38:40until he did something that got him locked up for the rest of his
- 1:38:45life. That was that was his trajectory. And she wasn't doing anything to
- 1:38:51help him out of that situation. She was actually exacerbating it. She's making
- 1:38:57it worse, right, just making it attractive to remain in that situation,
- 1:39:01right. And and here you have these two kids, that's their parents.
- 1:39:10How are they going to grow up? What lessons are they going to learn
- 1:39:14in their home? What's their school life going to be? Like? When
- 1:39:17this news story came out, I wonder if any of their classmates read about
- 1:39:20their mom and their dad, And I wonder if it gave them a lot
- 1:39:27of embarrassment or street cred or both. Yeah, Like, what would you
- 1:39:34think if you were, you know, eight years old in elementary school or
- 1:39:40something like. She doesn't say how old her babies are, and a lot
- 1:39:43of moms talk about having babies when they're they're really referring to a twelve year
- 1:39:47old and a sixteen year old, you know, like, no, no
- 1:39:51idea how old these kids are. They could be anywhere from from an infant
- 1:39:56and toddler age to near adults, and and their mom would refer to him
- 1:40:01that way. So what if they're in school? Right? What if they're
- 1:40:05they're school aged kids and they learned that their mom just got fired from her
- 1:40:11prison job. Now they're poor because they don't you know, who's gonna hire
- 1:40:15this woman? I wouldn't, right, who's gonna hire this woman? And
- 1:40:21they're not gonna get money from their dad. He's in prison, he just
- 1:40:25got busted. They're fucked. Yeah, and how's their life going to be?
- 1:40:30And who's responsible for that? She is? Well she is, but
- 1:40:39will she be held responsible? Nope? They probably did not even look at
- 1:40:44whether those kids needed to live with somebody else. M h, God,
- 1:40:56just it's insane. It makes me so fun man um, Like I said,
- 1:41:04rage, rage fuel right here you are here we are, and this
- 1:41:09is this is our prison system in the United States. Right. So let's
- 1:41:13say that's going on, and you're a teenage boy who uh you know,
- 1:41:21maybe maybe you get recruited by a gang. Maybe you live in a smaller
- 1:41:25community outside that neighborhood and you get busted shoplifting, or you get into a
- 1:41:31fight and you get an assault charge pressed on you and you know you're you're
- 1:41:38just on the cusp of eighteen. So they decided to charge you as an
- 1:41:41adult and send you there. How do you rehabilitate yourself while you're in there?
- 1:41:48What chance do you have? How are you going to come out of
- 1:41:51there? When you come out of there, who are you going to be
- 1:41:54connected with? Right? You know? Like that's that. That's why when
- 1:42:00when I read about the prison system in the United States, I take it
- 1:42:04in small doses, one story to a time like this, because I get
- 1:42:09sick. I read about the way we treat some of the most vulnerable members
- 1:42:14of our population, young men, teenage boys, men in their twenties,
- 1:42:19men who have been roped into joining gangs, men who have been down on
- 1:42:26their luck, men get put in jail for being homeless in the wrong place,
- 1:42:30at the wrong time, right, and this is the system that's in
- 1:42:41place to help them. Really, astonishingly, neither Tuban nor the article or
- 1:42:50the author of the law of review article notices the obvious, the stark difference
- 1:42:56clearly described between love on the outside and love on the inside for those guards.
- 1:43:02Why would guards enjoy better relationships with inmates than with men in everyday life,
- 1:43:11because they had greater control over the inmates. They said so themselves,
- 1:43:16And it's intuitively true. After all, there were two thousand inmates to choose
- 1:43:21from, and if one didn't express the right kind of love and affection,
- 1:43:26another, surely would. The guards had the inmates under their thumbs in ways
- 1:43:30that were impossible elsewhere. But because those facts interfere with his narrative, Tuban
- 1:43:36misses the obvious. They say, rape isn't about sex, it's about power.
- 1:43:43And that's not necessarily true in a great deal of at least the cases
- 1:43:47that are wrongly cold rape. But when it comes to prisoners and those who
- 1:43:56imprison them, I mean that that's the one case in which has got to
- 1:44:01be true, in which is most likely to be true, because you have
- 1:44:06to be a bit of a psychopath to to enjoy sex more when it's coerced
- 1:44:15as opposed to when it's you know, mutually desired. I understand that there
- 1:44:25is such a mindset out there that makes that work, and they are generally
- 1:44:29psychopaths and sociopaths who happen to find themselves in situations where they can make that
- 1:44:33work and get away with it. It's what feminists would call, you know,
- 1:44:39men in any given situation. But it's it's it's it's what anyone who
- 1:44:45isn't blinded by this madness would call prison sex. You know, well,
- 1:44:55prison rape. That's not mince words. It's prison rape. We're going through
- 1:45:00all this, this this all sided with the headline of Jeffrey tub Tuben calling
- 1:45:04it abuse. Yeah. It Given the wide meaning of the term abuse at
- 1:45:14this point in history, that could mean like prisoners occasionally yelled racial slurs at
- 1:45:20guards, because that's what abuse can be. It could mean saying things that
- 1:45:26people don't like. But in this case, we're saying abuse as in prison
- 1:45:32rape, and we're completely flipping it on the prison rapists. This is all
- 1:45:39one big DAVO in the worst possible area in which you could even attempt to
- 1:45:46davo. But that's that's what it is. And this has been the case
- 1:45:50since nine years ago. The Davo attacks were normal back then when it was
- 1:45:57just feminism versus men. We've got to this whole other point. The people
- 1:46:02are getting distracted by the tendrils of this fucking organism and they're forgetting that it
- 1:46:08all started with feminists against men, and it's all happening because of feminists against
- 1:46:14men. Yep, we are. We are basically in a situation where a
- 1:46:20woman can take actions that would be understood as rape if a man did it
- 1:46:28to a woman, and be considered the victim, even though the actual victim
- 1:46:35can't say no, has no power, you know, he can't say no
- 1:46:41without consequences, serious consequences, has no power, knows that he has no
- 1:46:47power, knows that he cannot escape those consequences, and he knows they could
- 1:46:54be ongoing for as long as that woman is in his fear of existence,
- 1:46:58and he has no way to change whether she's in his sphere of existence as
- 1:47:02long as he lives. And yet she's the victim somehow, and he's a
- 1:47:09perpetrator like that that you have to have such ideological blinders, such a twisted
- 1:47:21outlook toward women and personal agency in order to to to make that, you
- 1:47:31know, your outlook, the idea that well, you know, it's it's
- 1:47:34the men's fault. The men made this happen. The women are victims of
- 1:47:36it. The men are perpetrators of it. Even though it's not like they
- 1:47:42could have just backed off and avoided it. It's not like they could have
- 1:47:45run away from these women. It's not like they could have said no to
- 1:47:48these women with that without repercussions. It's not like there's a system in place
- 1:47:53to protect them from these women. Right, they're actually under these women's control.
- 1:47:58But you know, it's still the men fault. Like you have to
- 1:48:00be a twisted person on the inside and maybe even on the outside to think
- 1:48:08that way. And if you think about like the women that talked about this
- 1:48:13in the story and the guy that talked about his money and everything, you
- 1:48:16think that guy would be sleeping with that woman outside the system if he was
- 1:48:19just anywhere he wanted to be, Like if he didn't have to be in
- 1:48:24jail, if he was just living in a house or an apartment somewhere and
- 1:48:29doing what he wanted with who he wanted, when he wanted. Do you
- 1:48:32think she would have been his choice? I don't you know. I think
- 1:48:40a woman who wanted to dominate her partner like that would have been the last
- 1:48:45woman he was looking for. So in short, female guards, according to
- 1:48:54objective facts and their own descriptions of their motivations, had a pretty good thing
- 1:48:58going. They rather are lavishly supplemented their salaries, got good sex with men
- 1:49:03they liked or in some cases loved in relationships. I hesitate to call that
- 1:49:10love. They may have craved those men, yeah, they may have been
- 1:49:15obsessed with those men. But if their criteria for their relationship is he can't
- 1:49:19get away, I'm in charge, Like, that's not love. Right.
- 1:49:29There's there's that that that old saying, if you love something, set it
- 1:49:30free. If it comes back to you, it was your, it's yours.
- 1:49:33If it doesn't, it never was. I think that's kind of describes
- 1:49:39how Mike feels about pets. Say that's okay, it's okay. How many
- 1:49:45people I would piss off if I said that? Well, I mean,
- 1:49:47you know, if it can be true about pets as sure as shit is
- 1:49:50true about people. Right, But in some cases loved in relationships they felt
- 1:49:58good about and that they couldn't have on the outside. I'm gonna I'm gonna
- 1:50:02piss people off too. I think most women don't even understand love. Women
- 1:50:09will say men don't understand love. Right. But women will get mad if
- 1:50:15you forgot an anniversary of something other than the start of your relationship or your
- 1:50:21marriage. Oh, this is the anniversary of that special vacation we took that
- 1:50:26one time years and years ago, okay, And women will get mad about
- 1:50:30that, right. Women will get mad if you don't notice they got their
- 1:50:33hair colored a slightly different shade this time of red than the last time they
- 1:50:40got their hair dyed red. Right. Women will get mad about that.
- 1:50:43They will hold it against you, and you'll be in an argument ten years
- 1:50:45later, and she'll be like, well, you don't even look at me
- 1:50:48anyway. You didn't notice when I got my hair dyed auburn instead of copper?
- 1:50:55Like what, what what are you talking about? When did that happen
- 1:50:59ten years ago? Are you kidding me? You're bringing it up right now?
- 1:51:02Like that's women, right. Women will do that to a man who
- 1:51:06would die to protect them, right, A man who will beat his body
- 1:51:15up all day every day earning money to pay back the extended credit card bills
- 1:51:21that she's racking up, buying costs that are three feet too long for the
- 1:51:26windows, and getting her hair dyed, all these fucking different colors, right,
- 1:51:31that he just doesn't appreciate, he doesn't appreciate me. I'm gonna cheat
- 1:51:36on him with fifty guys online and that'll show him, you know, Like
- 1:51:41that's women. So I always say women don't understand respect, right, But
- 1:51:47I have to question whether most women truly understand love because they don't appreciate when
- 1:51:56a man comes home exhausted from from physical labor or from a job that is
- 1:52:03just boring as fuck. You know, you have to watch this dial for
- 1:52:09eight hours, don't look away from it. You know, some some some
- 1:52:13shit like that, right. Men will do that because of incentive pay you
- 1:52:17get, you get more per hour to do that, because it's hard to
- 1:52:20get people to do it. Men will come home covered literally in raw sewage
- 1:52:29because they've done that job, right, because they love their families and they
- 1:52:34want to make sure their wife has enough money to run the household, their
- 1:52:39children are well dressed, the food in the house is good, it's warm
- 1:52:43in there, it's safe in there. They have an alarmed system as they
- 1:52:45need it. They have cars to get places, they can go to the
- 1:52:47doctor if they get sick, you know, mental get up at three o'clock
- 1:52:51in the morning to get ready for an eight hour day that that you know,
- 1:52:56they have to drive an hour to get to in an hour to get
- 1:52:59back from. Right, And women get mad because after doing all that,
- 1:53:05he doesn't notice that her hair was armor and instead of copper, right,
- 1:53:11right, you know, like is that love? How do you how do
- 1:53:15you know what love is? If? If to you, love is counting
- 1:53:18up wrongdoings, right exactly? Well, see, and again this just goes
- 1:53:27back to how easy women have it, right, Like love and idolation is
- 1:53:32ladled upon women from the time that they're born and it never really stops.
- 1:53:38You know. There's the attention seeking and the attention getting is just like it's
- 1:53:46an average everyday thing, right whereas guys, holy shit, if anybody looks
- 1:53:54their way, they might and smiles that it's it's a good day for them,
- 1:53:59you know, and that happen. Yeah, yeah, But so I
- 1:54:09think I think people who understand love understand that it comes with sacrifice, and
- 1:54:16sacrifice is kind of intertwined with it. Yeah, I think a lot of
- 1:54:24women just think love is adoration, right, it's not really based in anything
- 1:54:34other than um, I really like you, I really, I really love
- 1:54:42You're so beautiful, you know what I mean? Yeah, I think we're
- 1:54:45wanting to be together all the time, or yeah, having the hots for
- 1:54:49somebody. You know. They don't think about being so invested in your loved
- 1:54:56one's personal welfare, their their health, well being, their happiness, their
- 1:55:00safety, that you're willing to sacrifice yours for theirs, right, right,
- 1:55:08right, And parents used to always do that for their children. You love
- 1:55:13your children, You sacrifice all kinds of things for your children's welfare. And
- 1:55:20it's it's why when I talk about planning for your children, I use the
- 1:55:25phrase love your children before you make them, before they're born, before you
- 1:55:30conceive, because it's too late to only start loving them afterward, right,
- 1:55:38Love them enough to prepare first, because it's it's hell to try to scramble
- 1:55:44to make up for that preparation you didn't do after the baby's born, and
- 1:55:50it's terrifying, especially if you love your child. After the child's born,
- 1:55:57you'll find yourself breaking the hell out of your body, just beating yourself up
- 1:56:00physically trying to get shit done so that you can make sure your child is
- 1:56:04going to be okay, you know, and you'll never feel like you've done
- 1:56:10a good enough job if you don't leave your kids. You made the nest
- 1:56:16before you lay the eggs, yes, because otherwise the eggs are just going
- 1:56:19to fall through the tree branches break, and you're going to feel like a
- 1:56:23decade. It's a lot easier to build a nest when you're not holding the
- 1:56:27baby. Just leave it at that. You know, if you're sitting there
- 1:56:30holding the baby the whole time, what are you going to build a nest
- 1:56:31with not your hands? So yeah, women and women have this as a
- 1:56:38habit. They're just completely careless. We're completely careless with our fertility until it's
- 1:56:44in our face. Oh shit, Now now I can be responsible because now
- 1:56:49I have to or the consequence falls on somebody that I care about. Like
- 1:56:59that's that's the situation. So when you know, not to disparage the writer,
- 1:57:03and the writer has made a great article here, but I think men
- 1:57:08in general give women too much credit in terms of love and it's one of
- 1:57:13the reasons why. And I I'm I've been delayed in my video making for
- 1:57:19the last month by problems with my old laptop computer. I got a new
- 1:57:23one, so I'm working on restoring my capacity to actually produce the videos and
- 1:57:29publish them. But my video about marriage is not going to make women happy
- 1:57:38at all. I'm sure there's not a good reason for women. There's not
- 1:57:44a good reason for men to trust women, and there's not a good reason
- 1:57:47for women to be able to say I deserve your loyalty. Right. That's
- 1:57:56there's no no natural thing that women men have been doing that legitimate miises that
- 1:58:04demand. There's no um, there's no doubt debt built there for for one
- 1:58:12thing. Right, you can't say you owe me your loyalty, you owe
- 1:58:15me your love because you haven't done anything for him, right, Um.
- 1:58:19And you can't say I am good enough to earn it, to deserve it,
- 1:58:28to inspire it, because for Fox's sake, what have you done women
- 1:58:34that is that inspiring? Right? And and in the case that you have
- 1:58:40done something like that, then certainly you would have found that person for you
- 1:58:45and you wouldn't be having these complaints, right. But you know, we
- 1:58:49do see men give women that loyalty and their love and their their honor and
- 1:58:58and sacrifice for women who have done nothing to deserve it, and then get
- 1:59:02treated like they don't love them because you know, of of petty complaints and
- 1:59:10stupid shick Men are afraid to offend women, that's it. And men are
- 1:59:16afraid to stand up for themselves. They were afraid to say anything to women
- 1:59:24that would go against you know, what she wants, you know, or
- 1:59:30challenge her in any way. They're too kind, yes, I mean the
- 1:59:36men. It's not even always just fear. They're too kind. They they
- 1:59:42care exactly. Men give way too much deference to women, and I don't
- 1:59:48I understand why, but I think we as a society need to break,
- 1:59:56well need to break men of that habit because most of these women out here.
- 2:00:03Shit, I'm not gonna put numbers on it, but hey, let's
- 2:00:08say, if you toss a coin and you got a fifty fifty chance of
- 2:00:11running into a crazy bitch, you know, do you really want to give
- 2:00:15her the benefit of the dab? I mean obviously in well, you have
- 2:00:23the situation where you know, the woman is raised to be entitled, but
- 2:00:27she's also got a natural sense of entitlement. She also doesn't understand love,
- 2:00:33right, So she gets thoughts for a guy, but she won't support him,
- 2:00:36she won't be there for him, She doesn't make herself like these women
- 2:00:41demand of emotional availability. Are they providing emotional availability? I mean shit,
- 2:00:50emotional availability, that's one thing they Are they providing anything else? I mean
- 2:00:57these women talk, These women talk about, Oh what I bring to the
- 2:01:00table. I'm I'm such a prize. I'm you know, I'm any guys
- 2:01:06should be happy to have me. Well, why what really do you bring
- 2:01:11to the table beside your fucking emotional baggage and your neediness, you know,
- 2:01:16and your fucking codependency. Yeah, I don't get it. Yes, brain
- 2:01:29is broken, My brain broken, Yeah, I it's going. So I
- 2:01:35said, this is this article is rage fuel the um And even though you
- 2:01:41know it's well written, it's written by in a voice from end guy,
- 2:01:44and it it sees through the issues and everything. Even like I said,
- 2:01:47there's some things even even men are too nice to these women. Do you
- 2:01:53think about that situation? It just keeps sticking in my in my head,
- 2:01:58there that one bit, And it's probably the reason why I m insisted on
- 2:02:04doing this article. Even though, like I said, it's a nine year
- 2:02:06old article. Is we had this guard who described her reasons for getting into
- 2:02:13a relationship for essentially raping this prisoner. Um, like I know, he
- 2:02:20may say, you know, yeah, well I consented, Like, well
- 2:02:24would you have consented if you had more choice in the matter? M But
- 2:02:30this this so this prison guard, this prison guard rapist said that her reasons
- 2:02:38for wanting to be in the relationship were sex. And she made two babies
- 2:02:43with this guy who never is going to get a chance to be a real
- 2:02:45father, all right. He's never going to be able to sit and read
- 2:02:48stories to his kids before they go to bed. He's never going to be
- 2:02:51able to teach him to throw a baseball. He's not going to be able
- 2:02:56to teach him how to drive. He's not going to give advice on how
- 2:03:00to live their lives from inside the prison system. Right. He's not gonna
- 2:03:05get hugs from his kids. He's not gonna get calls on Father's Day.
- 2:03:09He's not gonna get Father's Day cards or a tie. He's gonna get nothing.
- 2:03:14And his kids are gonna get nothing from their father because he can't give
- 2:03:18them anything. He can't be anything to them. What can he do right.
- 2:03:24And on top of all of that, her reason is because she's in
- 2:03:29control of the relationship. There is nothing about that is anything like love.
- 2:03:36No, no, oh, don't forget Annah. She wanted the good sex,
- 2:03:42she got the good sex. Get a fucking vibrator, do something,
- 2:03:47use a I don't know, do whatever the fuck you gotta do. And
- 2:03:51it didn't really specify, not that it really makes a difference, but whether
- 2:03:57or not this woman had two kids with this man while he was incarcerated or
- 2:04:01beforehand. Um, I mean, but again, is anybody vetting these people
- 2:04:14they've already seen to know on that, Yeah, they know. They just
- 2:04:17have to have a high school diploma, pass a piss test, not have
- 2:04:24been arrested within the past whatever amount of time. And all right, fine,
- 2:04:30here you go, good to go, keys to the cell. Oh
- 2:04:36geez, hang on a second, guys, I hope I don't. The
- 2:04:41show doesn't suddenly end, but a Windows just decided to force an update scheduling
- 2:04:48a restart right now. This is fucking stupid. I'm gonna schedule it on
- 2:04:56Saturday and then I'll just restart after I'm done with the actors. Like it
- 2:05:00didn't even tell me it was doing this. I have those turned off,
- 2:05:04so this must be one of those emergency things. Good God, like this
- 2:05:12repeatedly happens during showtime. If they're going to do an emergency forced update,
- 2:05:18it always seems to happen during showtime. Yeah. I never noticed that Thursday
- 2:05:26evening is the time for updates like that. Just and I actually have taken
- 2:05:33active measures to avoid this. I update on Wednesday in between the shows,
- 2:05:41the Tuesday show and the Thursday show, and then there's a feature that allows
- 2:05:45you to tell it to not do updates for a period of time, and
- 2:05:50I set it to the longest amount of time that you're allowed to set it
- 2:05:55for, and then you know, the next Wednesday, I go through and
- 2:06:00manually update again, with the idea being that I'm updating every Wednesday. It
- 2:06:06should be um, you know, good to go for on both Tuesday and
- 2:06:14Thursday. But nope, you know, fucking windows and I'm not updating the
- 2:06:19Windows eleven. They can go fund themselves. We do still appear to be
- 2:06:24live. Just in case we go off any second now, Uh, please
- 2:06:28go to feed the badget dot com and good night. Yeah. Man's rights
- 2:06:30advocates are literal machines. I think I got it. I think I got
- 2:06:36it. It doesn't look like it's booting me. But yeah, I've even
- 2:06:43disabled the Windows updates and services before. It doesn't hold. When when Microsoft
- 2:06:49decides to do a forced update, it um it, it overrides all those
- 2:06:57settings. So I don't know something's going on anyway, So to go on
- 2:07:04with the article, and I'm going to read like a couple more paragraphs and
- 2:07:08then I'm gonna look at let's see here just really quick so I know where
- 2:07:12we are. Yeah, there's a lot more to this, So I'm not
- 2:07:15gonna I'm gonna continue this next week, but we'll go back to the blue
- 2:07:20paragraph here that I've selected, if it's still there, all right, that's
- 2:07:25the one that we just read. So too many, including the guards,
- 2:07:30that looks like a win win situation. Adult women sized up a situation and
- 2:07:34made rational choices about how to behave to bring about the greatest benefits to themselves
- 2:07:41in the context of the jail, and we can't have that. The idea
- 2:07:46of women acting autonomously in their own perceived self interest is not favored by much
- 2:07:53of our news media and popular culture. So it fell to Jeffrey Tubin to
- 2:07:58convince New Yorker readers that, far from the female guards making their own autonomous
- 2:08:03choices, cynical and devious men succeeded in dominating women who were normally their keepers.
- 2:08:15So that's where we'll stop this week. It just blows my mind like
- 2:08:20they're completely in charge, they're completely in control, they completely dominate these men
- 2:08:26in every way, and yet it's they're victims. They're victims, those poor
- 2:08:31women. So with that, let's make sure I don't have any super chats
- 2:08:37that I've missed. I think I read richards as they were applicable to the
- 2:08:43moment, and I had that last one about justifying paying women less, you
- 2:08:48might as well not pay them at all. They're making plenty of money on
- 2:08:52the side, seriously, excuse me, on the side tax exempt motherfucker.
- 2:09:00Look, look, send those goddamn eighty seven thousand IRS agents. Send them
- 2:09:05after them, bitches, okay, because they're making a pretty goddamn page.
- 2:09:09Yep, oh shit, pretty you're you You got it though, I mean,
- 2:09:18like here we are, we're um making squeaking by making an honest living
- 2:09:26right. And and the I R S agents in question, you know,
- 2:09:30were that that whole thing was done to go after people like us, right.
- 2:09:35That was not to go after people like them. It was not to
- 2:09:37go after Nancy Pelosi and and her projects that never get finished, right or
- 2:09:43never materialized. It was to go after you know, Joe Schmo, like
- 2:09:50the the convenience store worker or the construction worker or uh, you know,
- 2:09:56the the line worker who is barely can out a living past his wife's credit
- 2:10:01card expenditures and uh, you know, maybe maybe gets a Christmas gift from
- 2:10:09his still living grandmother and she sends pay PayPal through PayPal, she sends him
- 2:10:13six hundred bucks boom irs eight. That's it in fifteen thousand dollars a month,
- 2:10:20and contraband in the prison system. We don't know, right, don't
- 2:10:24care, like the only reason the month. The government probably got mad about
- 2:10:28that because they're not getting tax dollars off of it. So but let's see,
- 2:10:33we are done with the super chats. Um. So we have one
- 2:10:39from yesterday at nine fifty three pm. That's was a five dollars super chow
- 2:10:48from missus Anna arc who said hugs for the Badgers. Today at seven o
- 2:10:54three pm, Meredith g gave us five dollars and said, honey, for
- 2:10:58the Badgers. Super Chows are the best. Thanks for the thought provoking discussion.
- 2:11:03Then we have Michael Emrich Windberg gave us some five dollars and said,
- 2:11:09let us take a moment to admire that this is not even a double standard.
- 2:11:15The complaint about she was asking for it is employed by activists to straw
- 2:11:20in the fictional argument for defending the rape of a woman because of what she
- 2:11:24chose to wear. Meanwhile, they deliberately and directly use it against boys when
- 2:11:30they were grabbed, handcuffed, thrown into a cage where they raped them.
- 2:11:35Yeah, and their whereabouts means you know they were they were asking for it.
- 2:11:43Zapier gave us five dollars and said marriage never made sense to me.
- 2:11:46What logical reason would a man have for choosing marriage? What can he gain
- 2:11:50from it? Maybe some tax benefits, the feast of the breadwinner, in
- 2:11:52a pretentious flex that allows him to call her his wife, like, you
- 2:11:58don't need marriage, Just move together, write a will and testament, get
- 2:12:01it notorized, and that's it. You can even get a living will and
- 2:12:05an advanced directive. I wouldn't risk marriage unless she makes more than me,
- 2:12:09and I know she always will, I can see if a party was seen
- 2:12:13at fault for ruining a marriage, but this no fault divorce crab just takes
- 2:12:18away any accountability. Crazy that some bird species can stay monogamous till death,
- 2:12:22but humans need government or religion to step in, and I will, I
- 2:12:26will point out this. Yeah, it is the thing. Yeah, government
- 2:12:31or religion stepping in is a modern invention and it actually has created. Marriage
- 2:12:37has been a ceremonial thing for thousands and thousands of years before such a thing
- 2:12:41as a government ever existed. And as a ceremony, there's obvious reasons that
- 2:12:46exists. It's it's almost anthropic, it is logic. The fact that it's
- 2:12:52existed for so long makes sense, but that it's only ceremonial and the only
- 2:12:58means anything you know, morally, dare say ethically among the families that that
- 2:13:05participate it in it it's you know, it's it is basically a party,
- 2:13:11but it's an important party in which families come together and say, yo,
- 2:13:16these two people love each other. Isn't that great? And therefore we accept
- 2:13:22the rest of you as part of our extended family. Now, it is
- 2:13:24important that families, you know, find find a way to accept each other
- 2:13:28because it necessarily happens every time, you know, two people create another chain
- 2:13:35in the having of the of the children and and whatnot. There was never
- 2:13:41any reason for the government to get involved. And this is a sticking point
- 2:13:46for people whe when that when you say marriage, do you mean what the
- 2:13:50government defines his marriage or do you mean what millennia of tradition defines his marriage.
- 2:13:58And this is problem with so many things. The government gets as close
- 2:14:01into things and then and then we start defining that thing as the government's law
- 2:14:09in that thing. Yeah, I mean, I'm always happying against any idea
- 2:14:16of the government getting involved in someone's love life. And I mean love life,
- 2:14:20not in a frivolous sense, because everyone needs a love life, especially
- 2:14:26when it comes to you know, a long term partner. And yeah,
- 2:14:31I've always been against that and that and that has even gotten the way of
- 2:14:37my understanding of marriage as an institution, because like I said, you forget
- 2:14:43that institutions can exist outside the government. Imagine an institution of marriage that existed
- 2:14:50outside the government. I think it would be ten times undis better. It
- 2:14:56would be it would be religious. And this is ways and I will give
- 2:15:01that a religion if they can take it away from the government, I'd be
- 2:15:03like, fine, I will join a religion to get married, way before
- 2:15:09I join a fucking government to get married. You know, I don't religion
- 2:15:16more than I trust government at this point. And I never thought i'd say
- 2:15:18that you don't really need either one pair bonding happens outside of authority. It
- 2:15:26is a it's a form of dedication, and I would actually argue to like
- 2:15:31the people who think government needs to be involved in marriage, I would actually
- 2:15:35argue that authority gets in the way of two people striving to maintain the health
- 2:15:43of their relationship, to foster their dedication to each other, to foster their
- 2:15:48intimacy with each other. Government gives you a piece of paper that says all
- 2:15:54that exists that you can just point to and say, well, see,
- 2:15:56we're married, we're a couple. We don't have to consistently strive to be
- 2:16:01close to each other. This piece of paper says other people can't interfere in
- 2:16:07our relationship and we're not supposed to abandon it um and and are like the
- 2:16:11whole no fault divorce thing is really not it's not real like we talk about
- 2:16:18it as no fault divorce. But there is no such thing as no fault
- 2:16:22divorce. We went from his or her fault to divorce to his fault only
- 2:16:31divorce. That is what we did, um and it is. It is
- 2:16:35evident in the fact that women are awarded custody over eighty percent of the time
- 2:16:41when there's there's a custody battle, and we are it's it's evident in the
- 2:16:45fact that when women have custody versus when men have custody, the man is
- 2:16:50expected to support two households more often and to a greater degree than the woman
- 2:16:56is, And when there is alimony to be paid, it usually is awarded
- 2:17:01to the woman from the man. That is not no fault. That is
- 2:17:05his fault. That is divorce. That is not not saying that it's actually
- 2:17:09his fault, but that is divorce that has deemed his fault. Even if
- 2:17:13she abandons him, even if she cheats on him, even if she abuses
- 2:17:16him in any other way, right even if she beats him, even if
- 2:17:20she rapes him, even if she poisons them, it's still his fault.
- 2:17:24Divorce. So you know, I don't I don't buy in a whole no
- 2:17:28fault divorce thing. No, it's guilty until proven not financially responsible right at
- 2:17:35your own cost, guilty until proven female, And like that says a lot
- 2:17:41about women and their their inability to be accountable for themselves. Like men are
- 2:17:48expected if they live on their own, if they're raising children on their own,
- 2:17:54they are expected to figure out a way to make it work financially,
- 2:17:58to figure out what they have to do, what they have to sacrifice,
- 2:18:01how much they have to break their bodies, how many jobs they have to
- 2:18:05do, who they have to embarrass themselves in front of by begging, whatever
- 2:18:09they have to do to make sure that those kids are fed and closed and
- 2:18:13have roof over their heads at the father's expense and not at the expense of
- 2:18:18daddy government. Right. Women don't have that stipulation. Women don't have that
- 2:18:22level of responsibility and accountability, and because of it, women don't rise to
- 2:18:28greatness as frequently or as high as men do. And there is no such
- 2:18:37thing as no fault divorce. There is his fault divorce and bigger his fault
- 2:18:45divorce. Yeah, so XERANX gave us five dollars super chat and said,
- 2:18:52have to separate government from kids. It's tendrils start inside the birth canal disgusting
- 2:18:56enough. Once that happens, people can opt for government governmentless unions, and
- 2:19:03actually, yeah, you do have to disentangle government from kids. And it's
- 2:19:09it's sad, but the government's tendrils start I would say before conception, because
- 2:19:18women are getting advice from their school system, which is run by the government,
- 2:19:26regarding their birth control choices, their sexual choices, whether they're responsible for
- 2:19:30those choices or not, and so on. And in sex education they're told
- 2:19:33everything is not their fault, everything is not their responsibility. It might suck
- 2:19:37to be in this situation. It's his fault, but you have to prevent
- 2:19:43it. And if you don't, you have to go to the government for
- 2:19:46money. They're not told you have to watch your children grow up in poverty.
- 2:19:50You have to deal with this. You have to deal with that,
- 2:19:52and it's your fault because you are the one with the uterus, right,
- 2:19:58so it like they should be or they shouldn't be told anything by the school.
- 2:20:05Um Zapier also gave us five dollars and suggested switch to Lennox. I
- 2:20:13recommend Lennox meant pop os or Zora and os operating systems best for absolute newbs.
- 2:20:22Besides, Microsoft is an evil spyware company anyway, and uh it is
- 2:20:26that is true. The only thing I do with this computer, though,
- 2:20:31is this show. UM, Like I don't, I don't. I have
- 2:20:35a computer just for this live stream and being on the news show. That's
- 2:20:39the only thing I use it for. UM. So I don't know.
- 2:20:43I might put some effort into that, um, but it's gonna have to
- 2:20:48wait. So I'm I've got I was telling everybody last week how the overtime
- 2:20:56situation was starting to settle down. The person that was fixing that problem just
- 2:21:03quit, so I'm kind of fucked. But at the same time, you
- 2:21:07know, I'll get overtime cash from it, so who knows, maybe it'll
- 2:21:13be enough for me to to get the information I need and then take the
- 2:21:18time to peruse it and you do a different setup, so things will get
- 2:21:24better. But in the meantime, you'll just have to put up with me
- 2:21:28being not nearly as computer literate with modern computers as I was back in the
- 2:21:33eighties with the you know, older computers, the computers of the day.
- 2:21:39And with that, I h I don't think. Let me look at um.
- 2:21:45Uh Rumble here, but I don't think there's Yeah, there's nothing paid
- 2:21:50um on Rumble but um geez, yeah, you gotta go to Rumble and
- 2:21:58look at our show and the comments calling marriage attacks. Benefit for getting married
- 2:22:03is like claiming that not getting married arrested. Now, getting arrested is a
- 2:22:07benefit of having your driver's license with you getting arrested as a penalty. And
- 2:22:11that's kind of true because honestly, there's not really a valid excuse for for
- 2:22:22higher taxes for single men. Like the people who draw in the system the
- 2:22:28most are married couples and their children, and you know that. That's yeah,
- 2:22:37that makes no sense whatsoever. But that's basically that's all I'm going to
- 2:22:43read from there. I think that's probably the most pertinent comment. We do
- 2:22:46have quite a few more comments than we had before, so we got a
- 2:22:50couple of guys commenting now, so we just need to get more of you
- 2:22:56on listening to us on Rumble. Um. We just have the same name
- 2:23:00on Rumble. You can, I think you can find a link to our
- 2:23:05it's HB Radio. Sorry it's not the same name, So just look for
- 2:23:09HB Radio on Rumble and it looks like right now, we have five five
- 2:23:15hundrety four follows followers on rumble sou look for our Rumble account and follow us
- 2:23:22there too. Um we we we Definitely it's a lot smaller than say,
- 2:23:26our YouTube channel, um Twitch and everything. I don't even know if Twitch
