- 3:02Speaker 2: far from the treat is what they are talking about
- 3:04Speaker 2: it right. The fact that you are the deputy police commissioner,
- 3:07Speaker 2: an officer of the law. You are supposed to protect

- 3:37Speaker 2: haven't even taught your son how to shoot?
- 3:39Speaker 1: Okay.
- 3:39Speaker 2: I'm glad nobody got hit, But if you're going to

- 4:28Speaker 2: the support staff for it.

- 4:32Speaker 1: but the fact she was a parent. I don't understand the.
- 4:36Speaker 2: Dynamics of marriages anymore because someone is supposed to intervene
- 4:39Speaker 2: and simply say this is stupid.
