- 0:00Speaker 1: Hey, we're back. Second half of the Power Hour six
- 0:02Speaker 1: ten double the UTV and the number eight two one
- 0:04Speaker 1: nine eight eight six a two to one DOUBLETV and
- 0:07Speaker 1: one eight hundred and six ten double UTV And if you must,
- 0:11Speaker 1: by the way, I would the movie I was talking
- 0:13Speaker 1: about earlier with Mark, the kid who had the braces
- 0:16Speaker 1: on his legs, who was a wanted to play baseball
- 0:18Speaker 1: and ended up becoming very very good at baseball, only
- 0:21Speaker 1: to find out that he had a debilitating spinal disease
- 0:23Speaker 1: and could not play baseball after getting a try out
- 0:25Speaker 1: with the majors. Is called the Hill. The Hill. Randy
- 0:30Speaker 1: Quaid is his dad, and he's a He's a non
- 0:37Speaker 1: believer in baseball period. Doesn't want the kids having baseball
- 0:43Speaker 1: cards or anything else. Don't think about baseball, don't talk
- 0:45Speaker 1: about baseball. You will never play baseball. In fact, he
- 0:48Speaker 1: was a preacher. He wanted his son to just just
- 0:51Speaker 1: be a preacher. That's what he's gonna do. Memorize your
- 0:53Speaker 1: Bible versus you're never playing baseball. And moving movie if
- 0:58Speaker 1: you get a chance to watch that all. So I
- 1:00Speaker 1: finally I got the subscription. The Queen's been talking about
- 1:03Speaker 1: it for a long time that Angel Networks. Do you
- 1:05Speaker 1: happen to have that, Zach? No? But is it good?
- 1:09Speaker 1: Really really really enjoying it so far? Okay, the first
- 1:14Speaker 1: movie we watched was was The Senior that I've been
- 1:16Speaker 1: talking about with Michael Chicklis. And he's a fifty nine
- 1:20Speaker 1: year old construction guy who has one year of eligibility
- 1:22Speaker 1: left and goes back to play one more year of
- 1:25Speaker 1: college football. And as silly as that premise sounds, what
- 1:30Speaker 1: a good movie, what a good movie. Really enjoyed that.
- 1:35Speaker 1: And you know that you can tell the equipment they're
- 1:40Speaker 1: using they're not using, you know, high end Hollywood cameras
- 1:43Speaker 1: and all that kind of stuff. But it was still
- 1:47Speaker 1: it was still done well and just a really good movie.
- 1:49Speaker 1: So yeah, they were having their Memorial Day sale, and
- 1:53Speaker 1: I said, okay, why not. Beats the crap out of
- 1:56Speaker 1: most of the stuff I got on TV. But if
- 1:59Speaker 1: you get Chance to Hell and The Senior both good movies.
- 2:04Speaker 1: All right. This is one of those stories that what
- 2:13Speaker 1: took me aback, if you will, about the story is
- 2:16Speaker 1: not the story itself, because I can see I can
- 2:20Speaker 1: see both points of view on us. A kid was
- 2:23Speaker 1: shot killed in South Carolina, he's fourteen years old. And
- 2:28Speaker 1: here's the problem. He was shot in the back, which
- 2:30Speaker 1: even in the days of the Old West, you don't
- 2:34Speaker 1: shoot the man in the back, just don't do it.
- 2:37Speaker 1: Frowned upon. Well, this guy was apparently scared and thought
- 2:42Speaker 1: his son was in danger, chased the kid out of
- 2:46Speaker 1: his store and chased him while firing, and ended up
- 2:51Speaker 1: shooting him in the back. Jerry returned a verdict for
- 2:55Speaker 1: sixty one year old I believe it's a checky Rick Chowe.
- 3:02Speaker 1: It's funny because the next sentence is Chow who is Asian?
- 3:07Speaker 1: I don't know if you needed to tell us that.
- 3:11Speaker 2: I thought as soon as I heard the name, I thought.
- 3:13Speaker 1: Good Irish Catholic boy, right, yeah. I don't know why
- 3:19Speaker 1: they felt the need from the Associated press to say
- 3:22Speaker 1: Chow who is Asian? Reportedly I should be allegedly reportedly
- 3:27Speaker 1: shot Cyrus Carmack Benton in the back after chasing him
- 3:30Speaker 1: from his convenience store in Columbia, South Carolina. He maintained
- 3:34Speaker 1: that he acted to defend his son. The killing sent
- 3:38Speaker 1: ways of anguish and grief through the African American community
- 3:41Speaker 1: in Richland County. Again, they're segmenting it all decent human
- 3:45Speaker 1: beings probably felt very bad that a fourteen year old
- 3:47Speaker 1: kid had been shot. Didn't have to be the African American.
- 3:51Speaker 1: This is what's wrong with the press, my friends. After
- 3:55Speaker 1: the verdict was read, sobs and cries of distress could
- 3:58Speaker 1: be heard coming from Carmak Belton's family. Seated in the gallery,
- 4:02Speaker 1: Chal sat silently frozen before slowly bowing his head on
- 4:07Speaker 1: his interlocked hands. What is this a novel? Defense attorney
- 4:13Speaker 1: Jack Swearing said that they were pleased with the verdict
- 4:16Speaker 1: but also feel bad for Carmack Belton's family. His quote here,
- 4:20Speaker 1: my heart goes out to them. But a fourteen year
- 4:22Speaker 1: old kid should not be roaming the streets of Columbia,
- 4:25Speaker 1: South Carolina with a semi automatic pistol loaded and ready
- 4:28Speaker 1: to fire. Todd Rutherford, that's the attorney who represented the
- 4:33Speaker 1: family of the fourteen year old, said the family was disappointed,
- 4:37Speaker 1: struggling to understand the jury's decision. Here's where I have
- 4:42Speaker 1: a problem with this story. There is no way, this
- 4:46Speaker 1: is the attorney. There is no way that a child
- 4:48Speaker 1: who did nothing wrong, who was shot in his back,
- 4:52Speaker 1: how that jury could justify that verdict. He was a
- 4:58Speaker 1: fourteen year old with a loaded handgun. He did nothing wrong.
- 5:04Speaker 1: That's that's wrong right there. The attorney continued, I've been
- 5:09Speaker 1: practicing law for almost thirty years and I've never seen
- 5:11Speaker 1: anything like this. I don't understand it. If you've never
- 5:13Speaker 1: seen anything like this, sir, you're not paying attention. The
- 5:20Speaker 1: anger is probably palpable, palable, my gosh, palpable tonight. I've
- 5:24Speaker 1: always had trouble with Edward. You can feel it, you
- 5:27Speaker 1: can touch it. He said. What we ask is that
- 5:29Speaker 1: the anger not turned into anything else but words. To
- 5:32Speaker 1: go online, to talk about it, to discuss it, but
- 5:34Speaker 1: not to act like what people in the evil minds
- 5:37Speaker 1: think we are. Wow, that's racist as hell, Rutherford. I'm sorry.
- 5:45Speaker 1: This whole story is just wrong. He also said the
- 5:48Speaker 1: family intends continuing pursuing a civil lawsuit against Chow because
- 5:53Speaker 1: you know now that he's not criminally responsible, we've got
- 5:55Speaker 1: to get some money out of it. Prosecutors, a defense attorney,
- 5:59Speaker 1: and closing argus and painted different pictures of the twenty
- 6:02Speaker 1: twenty three shooting. Prosecutor said that Choo acted in anger
- 6:05Speaker 1: because he wrongly thought the teen had stolen four bottles
- 6:08Speaker 1: of water from the store. A defense attorney said Chow
- 6:11Speaker 1: tried to defend his son only after the teen pointed
- 6:14Speaker 1: a gun at him. Case is not about case is
- 6:20Speaker 1: not about a shoplifter. The case is about a father
- 6:22Speaker 1: who's he's a gun pointed to his son and had
- 6:24Speaker 1: to make a decision, said his defense attorney, Kent and
- 6:27Speaker 1: Andrew chowd testified that the Carmack Belton pointed a gun
- 6:30Speaker 1: at him. Prosecutors acknowledged Carmac Belton had a semi automatic pistol,
- 6:35Speaker 1: but they say it fell on the ground during the chase,
- 6:37Speaker 1: that he never threatened anyone with it. Prosecutor said Choo
- 6:41Speaker 1: chased the teen more than one hundred and thirty yards
- 6:43Speaker 1: from the store. Gibson told jurors that Chow chased a
- 6:47Speaker 1: kid down and shot him in the back. Because this kid,
- 6:50Speaker 1: who did nothing wrong except illegally carrie a loaded handgun
- 6:58Speaker 1: and he's already done that, So to believe that he
- 7:03Speaker 1: pointed it at this boy not a far as stretch
- 7:07Speaker 1: as far as I'm concerned. But he was a poor,
- 7:11Speaker 1: innocent young man. I'm sorry to see him dead too.
- 7:14Speaker 1: I am I'm sorry to see all these kids out
- 7:16Speaker 1: here dead. But when you conduct yourself like this. You
- 7:20Speaker 1: reap what you sew. It's an old phrase. Look it up.
- 7:24Speaker 1: If you're under forty, you reap what you sew. And
- 7:30Speaker 1: if you want to hit the streets carrying a gun,
- 7:31Speaker 1: acting like you know, some kind of badass and trying
- 7:33Speaker 1: to intimidate people and scare people, somebody's not going to
- 7:38Speaker 1: be intimidated or scared, and you're going to have yet
- 7:41Speaker 1: another story like this. As far as pointing the gun,
- 7:48Speaker 1: they said, one of the attorneys said, who was at Gibson, Yeah,
- 7:53Speaker 1: Attorney Gibson said. Multiple witness testified they didn't see anything
- 7:57Speaker 1: in his hands, and they didn't see him point a
- 7:59Speaker 1: gun as he ran from the store. Nobody testified that happened.
- 8:02Speaker 1: That doesn't have the last name Chow, Gibson said. The
- 8:06Speaker 1: deadly shooting prompted, of course, vigils and protests outside the store.
- 8:10Speaker 1: Empty water bottles arranged to spell out Cyrus at one
- 8:15Speaker 1: twenty twenty three visual Again, nobody who didn't have the
- 8:20Speaker 1: last name Chow. You can you can have cast all
- 8:24Speaker 1: kinds of aspersions on this guy, But for somebody to
- 8:27Speaker 1: say this fourteen year old boy should not have been
- 8:28Speaker 1: running around with a loaded gun, well, that's out of
- 8:32Speaker 1: you're you're you're casting aspersions on him. You can't do that.
- 8:37Speaker 1: So very sad, so very sad. The Jill Biden. I
- 8:47Speaker 1: don't know where why. The last three days Sunday, Monday,
- 8:52Speaker 1: and Tuesday, there's been a new stupid Jill Biden. Is
- 8:55Speaker 1: she on a tour of some sort?
- 8:57Speaker 2: She released the book?
- 8:59Speaker 1: Is that what it is?
- 8:59Speaker 2: Yeah, she's releasing a book.
- 9:03Speaker 1: M Mark was reading something earlier where she said she
- 9:07Speaker 1: thought or she said that Joe would have beaten Donald Trump,
- 9:12Speaker 1: which I I don't, I don't get, and what in
- 9:16Speaker 1: the election?
- 9:18Speaker 2: There's no, I don't look. Put your political differences aside.
- 9:22Speaker 2: That first ten minutes.
- 9:25Speaker 1: Of that debate, he collapsed, he was done. It was done. Now.
- 9:29Speaker 2: I don't think he would have won if he had
- 9:31Speaker 2: a decent debate performance, but decent for him is a
- 9:36Speaker 2: very low bar.
- 9:37Speaker 1: So I think Donald Trump actually felt bad after that debate.
- 9:40Speaker 1: I think he came out ready to smash Joe Biden
- 9:43Speaker 1: and then it's like you're giving you're giving me nothing
- 9:46Speaker 1: to work with him. Yeah, he didn't go after him,
- 9:49Speaker 1: but this from entertainment. How do you go after somebody
- 9:51Speaker 1: who's from entertainment? Magazine Today, Joe Biden tells the View
- 9:56Speaker 1: that Joe Biden wouldn't be fit for a second term
- 9:58Speaker 1: after his cancer diagnosed. So earlier he would beat Trump.
- 10:04Speaker 1: Now he wouldn't be fit a day before yesterday. It
- 10:08Speaker 1: was I thought he was having a stroke, right, She
- 10:12Speaker 1: said that she thought during the debate Joe Biden was
- 10:15Speaker 1: having a stroke. And then then she gets up on
- 10:18Speaker 1: the stage after the debate and says, didn't he do
- 10:20Speaker 1: a good job? He like a child?
- 10:23Speaker 2: You knew all the answers Joe, and I was like, well,
- 10:25Speaker 2: what what does that mean?
- 10:29Speaker 1: Just just ridiculous. And she was on the View, so
- 10:33Speaker 1: you know, she's in friendly territory there. But you know
- 10:36Speaker 1: when I was a kid, did they have the same
- 10:38Speaker 1: story that called the Emperor has no clothes? Yeah, we
- 10:42Speaker 1: don't have anybody to call out the emperor for being
- 10:44Speaker 1: nicked anymore. People just keep letting people say stupid stuff
- 10:48Speaker 1: like that, and they never seem to want to call
- 10:51Speaker 1: him out. And of course Whoopy Goldberg, idiot that she is,
- 10:54Speaker 1: she's gonna kiss Joe Biden's ring and a heartbeat. Do
- 10:56Speaker 1: you remember when Whoopy Goldberg, actually she actually said when
- 11:02Speaker 1: we uh Trump was choosing a new surgeon general Jill Biden,
- 11:07Speaker 1: doctor Jill Biden, because she wanted people. By the way,
- 11:10Speaker 1: that was she actually had instructions that she was to
- 11:12Speaker 1: be addressed as doctor Jill Biden. Doctor Jill Biden should
- 11:16Speaker 1: be our next surgeon general. She's a wonderful doctor. But no,
- 11:21Speaker 1: she's not. She's got a PhD. She's not a medical doctor.
- 11:25Speaker 2: It is an educational.
- 11:29Speaker 1: The surgeon general is a medical position, right.
- 11:31Speaker 2: But what she wasn't joking when she said that.
- 11:34Speaker 1: No, no, she again running her mouth saying that this
- 11:39Speaker 1: is the problem with these people. They they say what
- 11:43Speaker 1: they think, but they don't know what they say, and
- 11:49Speaker 1: that it just makes you look like a fool. But
- 11:51Speaker 1: we're supposed to forget all those things. Joe, you did
- 11:54Speaker 1: so well. You had all the answers BS. Doctor Jill
- 11:59Speaker 1: Biden is a wonder doctor and should be the surgeon general.
- 12:01Speaker 1: B S. I don't own an SUV. My family owns
- 12:06Speaker 1: an SUV. I was for it before I was against it.
- 12:12Speaker 2: I'm not even making fun of Joe Biden here. But
- 12:15Speaker 2: I knew there was a problem because I knew everything
- 12:17Speaker 2: he was saying was English. But I just never heard
- 12:19Speaker 2: those words in that way before.
- 12:21Speaker 1: Well, the syllables were all in the wrong order.
- 12:24Speaker 2: He was having a rough time, so were all of us.
- 12:28Speaker 1: Trevors scaring me. Hair is standing up on my legs.
- 12:32Speaker 1: The first row, a guy looks at corn. Papa, I said,
- 12:36Speaker 1: Or
