Latest / Chuck Douglas / Minneapolis shooting Tim Walz and your calls
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Real quickly. Here just an aside because I want to
- 0:02Speaker 1: get into the the similarities here between the Takia Young
- 0:06Speaker 1: story and Columbus and and what happened in Minnesota. But first,
- 0:10Speaker 1: I so, I don't know if this is real or
- 0:12Speaker 1: if this is AI And this makes me sick that
- 0:14Speaker 1: I don't know. Too many things look they look real,
- 0:20Speaker 1: and I don't know. Are you familiar with a deep
- 0:23Speaker 1: universe on Facebook? No? I'm not. Okay. See the picture
- 0:28Speaker 1: looks the picture looks like a I don't know. But
- 0:32Speaker 1: their story here says, after nine years and three billion miles,
- 0:35Speaker 1: Pluto's icy mountains are finally captured on camera. And I'm
- 0:40Speaker 1: just wondering if that's real. Plus I'm also wondering how
- 0:44Speaker 1: something went for nine years and three billion miles and
- 0:47Speaker 1: sent back a picture another three billion miles and we
- 0:50Speaker 1: can see the mountains on Pluto, but we still haven't
- 0:52Speaker 1: seen Bigfoot. I don't know how, But I'm just saying, man,
- 0:57Speaker 1: I have no idea if this is a real uh
- 1:01Speaker 1: a real page for astronomy folks, or if it's just
- 1:07Speaker 1: I don't know.
- 1:08Speaker 2: What I'm looking at. I could see NASA has like
- 1:11Speaker 2: pictures of mountains of Pluto. But I don't see anything
- 1:18Speaker 2: in the any type of news that's like, hey, here's
- 1:22Speaker 2: the new pictures of Pluto. It's just social media. So
- 1:26Speaker 2: I don't I don't know.
- 1:29Speaker 1: Yeah, it's I'm not sure. If I'm not sure, I'm
- 1:32Speaker 1: reading other stories here NASA finds far off planet where
- 1:35Speaker 1: even rocks could survive. Uh huh what that doesn't make
- 1:40Speaker 1: any sense? So yeah, this this could be fiction. I'm
- 1:42Speaker 1: not sure. But if it's not a that's pretty cool
- 1:46Speaker 1: and be it. I still want to know why Pluto
- 1:48Speaker 1: is not a planet. It was a planet all the
- 1:50Speaker 1: time I was growing up, and suddenly it wasn't a
- 1:51Speaker 1: planet anymore. And I don't like that. I think that's
- 1:54Speaker 1: a It could be racist, are we do we have
- 1:56Speaker 1: a problem with Plutonians?
- 1:58Speaker 2: Well, I mean they're less, sir, they in.
- 2:02Speaker 1: Most of them. How can you say that? How many
- 2:04Speaker 1: Plutonians do you.
- 2:05Speaker 2: Know enough to know?
- 2:06Speaker 1: You know? You one you meet them all? That's racist
- 2:09Speaker 1: in itself. Oh, you can't say that. The Plutonian Union
- 2:13Speaker 1: is going to get all upset now, last thing we need. Sorry,
- 2:17Speaker 1: all right, So the story in Minneapolis, Minnesota, as I
- 2:20Speaker 1: said before the break, Tim Wallas has called out the
- 2:22Speaker 1: National Guard to help local law enforcement to deal with
- 2:25Speaker 1: all the craziness that's happening because federal troops that they
- 2:28Speaker 1: are doing federal law enforcement work, ice agents and dhs,
- 2:32Speaker 1: and he doesn't like that. So now see, not when
- 2:35Speaker 1: Donald Trump sent the National Guard out to help the
- 2:38Speaker 1: police make crime lower in DC, where even the Democrat
- 2:41Speaker 1: mayor said, thank you, this helped, but that was bad.
- 2:45Speaker 1: But when Tim Wallson's the National Guard had to help
- 2:48Speaker 1: the local police, that's that's good. We all said, you know,
- 2:53Speaker 1: when this happened here in central Ohio, we saw the
- 2:57Speaker 1: similarities between the Key Young case in Blendon Township and
- 3:01Speaker 1: what happened there. And I don't know if he saw
- 3:04Speaker 1: this story or not actually just came down or got
- 3:06Speaker 1: up mate here a couple of hours ago. The Use
- 3:08Speaker 1: of Force Review Board has cleared Blendon Township police officer
- 3:13Speaker 1: Connor Grubb this week, six weeks after he was acquitted
- 3:15Speaker 1: in the shooting death of Takia Young. The five person
- 3:17Speaker 1: panel has concluded no policy violations occurred, Blendon Township Chief
- 3:21Speaker 1: of Police John Belford said in a statement that was
- 3:24Speaker 1: sent out to media on Thursday twenty twenty three. Shooting
- 3:27Speaker 1: in the parking out of the Kroger store spark national headlines,
- 3:30Speaker 1: of course, as did grubs acquittal in November. I don't
- 3:33Speaker 1: know where the lawsuit stands. Have you heard anything about
- 3:37Speaker 1: the lawsuit filed by the family. They were suing the officer,
- 3:39Speaker 1: they were sue in the department, they were suing Kroger,
- 3:42Speaker 1: and they were suing the Kroger employee that called police.
- 3:46Speaker 2: Yep, I dare remember you saying that?
- 3:50Speaker 1: Which again, if you see something, say something, as long
- 3:55Speaker 1: as you say the right thing about the right people.
- 3:58Speaker 1: That's what that comes down to. If somebody is stealing
- 4:01Speaker 1: liquor from your store and you call the police and say,
- 4:06Speaker 1: how well, police, somebody is stealing lecor from our store,
- 4:09Speaker 1: and the police respond, how are you liable civilly, criminally
- 4:14Speaker 1: or otherwise for what happens from there? You did your
- 4:18Speaker 1: job as a citizen. And if the court's fine, if
- 4:22Speaker 1: that lawsuit moves forward and the courts find that that
- 4:25Speaker 1: Kroger employee has some sort of culpability in this thing, Seriously,
- 4:29Speaker 1: I will never call the police about a damn thing again.
- 4:32Speaker 2: There's no way that's just a lawyer grasping at anything.
- 4:37Speaker 2: I mean, it doesn't even make sense. Logically, it doesn't
- 4:40Speaker 2: make sense to try.
- 4:42Speaker 1: And Kroger has no liability as far as what did
- 4:45Speaker 1: Kroger do except be open and sell stuff.
- 4:52Speaker 2: They left things on a shelf where they could be
- 4:54Speaker 2: easily stolen, which could entice people who are lower income
- 5:02Speaker 2: to maybe steal those things.
- 5:03Speaker 1: Oh, the shelves were too low. So you're you're saying
- 5:07Speaker 1: that poor people are short. Yeah, see, you're stereotyping. You're stereotyping.
- 5:12Speaker 1: That's a that's a that's a nasty statement you're making.
- 5:15Speaker 2: I mean, yes, I actually have.
- 5:22Speaker 1: I don't know this is It's just it's so stupid
- 5:24Speaker 1: and I don't know, seriously, if that lawsuit is even
- 5:26Speaker 1: moving forward.
- 5:26Speaker 2: I looked, I can't see anything new about it.
- 5:29Speaker 1: It's it's just what is frustrating is that there are
- 5:32Speaker 1: people out there, as silly as I am making this sound,
- 5:35Speaker 1: there are people out there that are saying, oh, yeah,
- 5:38Speaker 1: they need to get paid, because ultimately, that's what it
- 5:41Speaker 1: comes down to. Everybody wants some money, some gofund me money,
- 5:44Speaker 1: some click here money. Everybody wants some money. What it's
- 5:47Speaker 1: all about, Give me some money, gonna hold you live?
- 5:50Speaker 1: I want money. It's wrong that's wrong. If anybody, seriously,
- 5:56Speaker 1: if anything happens to me, you can you can go
- 6:01Speaker 1: after people, you could prosecute people. But if anybody ever
- 6:04Speaker 1: sues on my behalf in order to get some money,
- 6:07Speaker 1: my ghost will come back and haunt you. That's the
- 6:11Speaker 1: last thing I would care about some money.
- 6:16Speaker 2: You're talking about the afterlife. I could have an exectition.
- 6:18Speaker 1: I will come back, crisis, I will come back.
- 6:21Speaker 2: I'm driving, I could wreck.
- 6:23Speaker 1: I will find Harry Houdini and say, okay, show me
- 6:25Speaker 1: how far you got. I'll take it from there. I
- 6:28Speaker 1: would come back just to haunt you. If you did that, what.
- 6:31Speaker 2: A shot in the guy.
- 6:32Speaker 1: I just really can. But you see what I'm saying.
- 6:34Speaker 1: Would you seriously, if if somehow, some way the clerk
- 6:39Speaker 1: at Kroger were to be found to be culpable in
- 6:42Speaker 1: some way in what happened to Takiya.
- 6:45Speaker 2: It just it doesn't make any sense.
- 6:47Speaker 1: Would you ever call the police about anything again? Would
- 6:49Speaker 1: you ever report any crime? What would be the point?
- 6:52Speaker 2: I mean you would just that would be so frustrating
- 6:54Speaker 2: that you would just let the no, no way.
- 6:57Speaker 1: I see a gang of punks attacking a woman on
- 6:59Speaker 1: a street, better call the police. What's your name, sir, oh,
- 7:02Speaker 1: I ain't telling them.
- 7:02Speaker 2: Uh yeah, this is an anonymous.
- 7:05Speaker 1: This is my burner phone that I used to report
- 7:07Speaker 1: crimes because I'm not even letting you track me because
- 7:11Speaker 1: they could come at the police come out here and
- 7:13Speaker 1: getting it with the gang, and the gang gets shot
- 7:15Speaker 1: and the gang's family takes me to court and takes
- 7:18Speaker 1: everything I got because I called the police. I don't
- 7:22Speaker 1: think so, man, I don't roll that way. But I'm
- 7:26Speaker 1: scared because our court system is so damn twisted. Judges
- 7:33Speaker 1: and juries alike, just they want to hand over money
- 7:35Speaker 1: for the most ridiculous things. If that case moves forward,
- 7:41Speaker 1: I am scared because, yeah, this this Kroger Clark needs
- 7:45Speaker 1: to to pay fifty thousand dollars for their participation in
- 7:48Speaker 1: this this incident.
- 7:50Speaker 2: I just can't see logically how that could.
- 7:52Speaker 1: Ever, logic has nothing to do with it, true.
- 7:56Speaker 2: I guess it depends on a jury at that point, right,
- 8:00Speaker 2: or is it a judge. I don't know how this case.
- 8:02Speaker 1: I'm assuming that would go in front of a jury,
- 8:04Speaker 1: because you're looking for punitive damages and immterial damages as well.
- 8:08Speaker 1: Here's the thing, though, if if you are going to
- 8:11Speaker 1: sue them for her death, and yet at a criminal
- 8:16Speaker 1: level and at a departmental level, the officer involved was
- 8:20Speaker 1: found to have not violated any rules, was found not
- 8:24Speaker 1: guilty of committing any crimes. Then whatever they did that
- 8:29Speaker 1: led to his eventuality. Since his eventuality was not a
- 8:32Speaker 1: violation of anything or a crime, then what you did
- 8:37Speaker 1: did nothing? Did it? I mean, honestly, it doesn't make sense.
- 8:43Speaker 1: But again, so much of the court system does not
- 8:45Speaker 1: make sense anymore. Did I worry about it until it's
- 8:47Speaker 1: all said and until it's over it's finished through, I'm yeah,
- 8:53Speaker 1: I'm gonna wonder and I will not blame you. Remember
- 8:57Speaker 1: back in the seventies, all the TV shows, ma'am, why
- 9:00Speaker 1: didn't you call the police? Well, I didn't want to
- 9:02Speaker 1: get involved. We're going to go back to I didn't
- 9:05Speaker 1: want to get involved. Society where people don't want to,
- 9:09Speaker 1: they don't want to have anything to do with anything.
- 9:14Speaker 1: Used to be the you know, feared repercussions, the bad
- 9:17Speaker 1: guys will come back and get them. Now they fear
- 9:20Speaker 1: the good guys will come and get them, the courts
- 9:23Speaker 1: will come and get them. That's not right, that's not that,
- 9:27Speaker 1: that is not even remotely close to being what America
- 9:29Speaker 1: is supposed to be about. Or maybe that's just me.
- 9:32Speaker 1: Let's try to get a few in here. A two
- 9:34Speaker 1: one ninety eight six A two one WTV and Frank,
- 9:36Speaker 1: you're on six ten DOULEUTVN.
- 9:38Speaker 3: Hey truck real quick? Okay? Uh. They wanted to sue
- 9:43Speaker 3: the coffee cup manufacturers when somebody spilled coffee in their lap.
- 9:47Speaker 3: Could they go to the liquor producer? They made the
- 9:50Speaker 3: bottle too attractive, they made it too delicious. Of course
- 9:54Speaker 3: somebody wanted to steal it.
- 9:56Speaker 1: Well, I sue AEP because if they, if they didn't
- 10:00Speaker 1: we have power to Kroger to have lights on in
- 10:02Speaker 1: the liquor department, then they wouldn't have known what to
- 10:03Speaker 1: steal because it had been dark in there. I would
- 10:07Speaker 1: I'd sue any manufacturer of glass products actually, because if
- 10:10Speaker 1: it wasn't for glass, the bottles wouldn't exist.
- 10:13Speaker 3: You wouldn't be able to see it, you wouldn't be
- 10:15Speaker 3: able to see how delicious it looks.
- 10:16Speaker 1: Yes, sue the distiller. Whenever company made the alcohol that
- 10:20Speaker 1: was being stolen, they should be they Yeah, this is
- 10:22Speaker 1: what I'm How far are you willing to go? How
- 10:25Speaker 1: far are you willing to do? It wasn't that long
- 10:26Speaker 1: ago that they wanted to sue the ammunition manufacturers for
- 10:30Speaker 1: dry by shootings in Chicago.
- 10:33Speaker 3: Not maybe Kroger. Maybe Kroger could have a reverse suit
- 10:37Speaker 3: against her parents for not teaching her not to steal.
- 10:40Speaker 1: Well, you know see, I would file that if I were,
- 10:43Speaker 1: if I were ridiculously wealthy, I would file countersuits just
- 10:46Speaker 1: like that, just to make a point. But nobody ever does.
- 10:51Speaker 1: Thanks Chuck, I appreciate you. Frank, you have a good evening.
- 10:53Speaker 1: A two one nine eight eighty six A two one WTV.
- 10:55Speaker 1: Oh I really, man, This time goes fast?
- 11:01Speaker 2: Is why you're doing the show?
- 11:02Speaker 1: Yes, I just looked up and saw what time it was. Yeah, okay,
- 11:07Speaker 1: well do I have time for the one more? Of course? Okay,
- 11:10Speaker 1: let's get him in here, because he's bothered to sitting
- 11:11Speaker 1: on hold, Dana, you're on sixth n WUTV.
- 11:13Speaker 4: In Well, you know what if they can't find the officer,
- 11:17Speaker 4: they can't serve the officer or to sue him. Right,
- 11:20Speaker 4: if I was in if I own a house, I'd
- 11:22Speaker 4: be selling the house and getting out of dodge where
- 11:25Speaker 4: they can never find me again.
- 11:27Speaker 1: Which officer are you talking about?
- 11:29Speaker 4: The officer who was found not guilty for a shoot
- 11:32Speaker 4: you the woman who was trying to run over him.
- 11:35Speaker 1: Well, yeah, he's been everything's I mean, he's not guilty
- 11:38Speaker 1: in the criminal case, and he was found you know,
- 11:40Speaker 1: he had not violated anything. The review board says he
- 11:43Speaker 1: didn't violate any policy, So I think, you know, now
- 11:46Speaker 1: it's just not.
- 11:49Speaker 4: Pro relatives have brought against him. Yeah, now that's the one.
- 11:52Speaker 4: I would be gone. They couldn't find me to sue
- 11:55Speaker 4: me for anything.
- 11:56Speaker 1: I would want to keep everybody in there if I could,
- 11:59Speaker 1: Thanks Dana. If I were the officer, I would want
- 12:02Speaker 1: to keep Kroger and the Kroger employee as co defendants.
- 12:06Speaker 1: I would not want them to sever because honestly, nobody
- 12:10Speaker 1: is going to be Nobody with any degree of common
- 12:13Speaker 1: sense is going to be able to look at this
- 12:15Speaker 1: and go, oh, yes, we need to find all these
- 12:16Speaker 1: people guilty of something and make them monetarily liable to
- 12:20Speaker 1: the family because you can't blame clerk for calling the police. Now,
- 12:26Speaker 1: if they do it separately, yeah, they may be able
- 12:29Speaker 1: to pull something off. You don't want that to happen.
