Thanking all of you once again for listening, however and
0:36

0:41

0:47
biggest political stories in our own unique, unapologetic and sometimes
0:51
I do mean sometimes our own controversial way. We would
0:55
love for you, guys, if you haven't already, to follow
0:57
us on your favorite podcast platform, give us your ratings
1:00

1:03
friends about the great things that we do here on
1:05
the show so that way they like you, can become
1:08
a part of what we regularly do here once again
1:11
on the Agarius william Show. Hope that you guys are
1:13
having a great day. Hope that you're looking forward to
1:15
the remainder of the week just as much as I am.
1:18
Hope that you guys, by extension, had a great Labor
1:22
Day weekend. For those of you that are listening in
1:24
the United States were coming off of the Labor Day holiday.
1:28
Speaker 2: Hope that you guys stay safe.
1:30
Speaker 1: Hope that you enjoyed the quote unquote last official holiday
1:34
of the summer with friends and family. Ate some great barbecue,
1:37
sat around, talked and laughed, and just kind of got
1:41
a sense of where everybody was at. One of the
1:43
things that I enjoy about the holidays is that it
1:47
gives us an opportunity to just kind of touch base
1:50
with everybody because for the most part, you're seeing people
1:53
that you don't usually see every day. Think about all
1:56
the people that come to your house for Thanksgiving for Christmas.
2:00
Those are people that nine times out of ten you
2:03
don't get an opportunity to see, but during those holidays,
2:07
so it gives you an opportunity to just sort of
2:10
see where everybody's at. So that's one of the reasons
2:12
why when the holidays roll around, you kind of get
2:17
people saying one of the reasons why they enjoy it
2:20
is because they get to see those people that they
2:22
don't get a chance to see each and every day.
2:25
So Labor Day is in the rearview mirror. Now fall
2:28
a be here before we know it, and of course
2:30
Fall ushers in Halloween, followed by Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New
2:34
Year's It's hard to believe that we're already in the
2:38
month of September. It feels like it was just yesterday
2:40
we were returning the calendars over from July to August.
2:43
The days are getting shorter, the temperatures are dropping. Football
2:48
is back, at least college pro football to be back Thursday,
2:52
and people are planning their days accordingly. If you're someone
2:56
who used to do recreational things on Saturday, now that
2:59
college football is back, you're not doing those things anymore.
3:02
And if you are doing them, you're either doing them
3:04
on Sunday or Friday. And Sunday. We know a lot
3:08
of people they say, don't bother me because the NFL's back,
3:13
and I don't want to do anything that involves me
3:18
getting up from the couch.
3:21
Speaker 2: And leaving football.
3:24
Speaker 1: So if you're a wife out there and you know
3:27
that this is a delicate time of the year, you
3:30
may want to tell your husband to do everything that
3:33
needs to be done around the house now, because coming
3:37
up here on September seventh, you won't be able to
3:39
get them to do much girlfriend.
3:42
Speaker 2: Same thing with your boyfriends. You guys, understand the gist.
3:44
Speaker 1: I don't understand why I'm telling you, guys that you
3:47
already know the game by now, and for most of you,
3:50
you play it every single year, not saying that there's
3:52
anything wrong with it, but you've been doing it this long,
3:56
so why stop now?
3:57
Speaker 2: Right?
3:59
Speaker 1: As I like to do at the very beginning of
4:01
each and every one of these episodes, I like to
4:03
toss out a disclaimer. This show was not intended for snowflakes,
4:07
not intended for people who can't handle harsh conversations, because
4:11
we're gonna delve into a conversation here today that a
4:15
lot of people don't want to hear the truth about,
4:17
but unfortunately it is the truth because it's the truth,
4:22
because it is reality. The truth deals in reality. The
4:26
truth doesn't care about feelings, The truth doesn't care about emotions.
4:29
The truth cares about the truth, and we have to
4:32
tell some uncomfortable truths on this podcast to people who
4:35
don't want to hear those truths. So we're gonna delve
4:38
into a conversation at the end of the show today
4:40
that a lot of people are gonna tune out of
4:43
and that's perfectly fine with me. But at the end
4:45
of the day, all thatwithstanding, the truth still has to
4:48
come out.
4:50
Speaker 2: So before we.
4:51
Speaker 1: Dive into that, I first want to talk to you
4:54
guys about what I'm pretty sure you've been seeing over
4:57
the course of the past couple days. So there are
5:01
a lot of people that are concerned about the health
5:06
of the forty seventh President of the United States, Donald J.
5:09
Speaker 2: Trump.
5:11
Speaker 1: There has been pictures that has been surfacing throughout the
5:14
weekend showing him getting into his presidential limousine to go
5:19
play golf. Over the course of the past Labor Day weekend,
5:23
there was also pictures of him getting out of the
5:26
car when he got back to the White House from
5:29
playing golf. And those pictures show a man whom I
5:35
believe is suffering from a health condition that he and
5:39
his medical team doesn't want the American people to know.
5:44
And we all know that. We all know that when
5:46
you have money, when you have influence, when you're going
5:48
through a health battle, you don't necessarily have to tell
5:51
people what you're going through. Because you feel as though
5:54
you have enough money to shield yourself from the onslaught
5:57
of controversy that would come from you announcing that you're
6:01
suffering from something that could ultimately be deadly. Now we
6:05
all remember a couple weeks ago, we saw pictures of
6:08
the President and he had these blemishes on his hand,
6:13
and he also had swollen ankles. And it was later
6:16
revealed by his medical staff via a press release put
6:20
out by the White House Press Office, that the President
6:23
is suffering from a condition involving his veins, which they
6:30
claim is perfectly normal for someone his age. One of
6:36
the things that we know about anybody who occupies the
6:39
office a president of the United States is that they
6:43
have to be up for the job seven days a week,
6:47
twenty four hours a day, three hundred and sixty five
6:49
days of the year three sixty six. And we're talking
6:51
about elip and a lot of people are very concerned
6:56
that President Trump is not up to task to do
6:59
the job of being president of the United States. Now
7:02
here's where my problem comes in, because I do have
7:04
a problem with this.
7:07
Speaker 2: On two different fronts.
7:08
Speaker 1: Number One, if you're the president and if you're suffering
7:12
from a health condition that would put you in jeopardy
7:17
of not being able to do your job. You need
7:19
to let the American people know. We're entitled to know
7:22
what's going on with you because you're the leader of
7:24
this country and if something were to happen to you
7:27
that causes you to be unable to do your job.
7:30
We don't want to be left out there with our
7:32
as the saying goes, with our dicks blowing in the wind.
7:37
Speaker 2: It's an old movie.
7:37
Speaker 1: Reference I heard one time JFK the scene where Kevin
7:43
Costner's character was talking to Donald Sutherland's character in Washington,
7:48
d C.
7:50
Speaker 2: If you hadn't seen that movie, I highly recommend giving
7:52
it a watch.
7:54
Speaker 1: Secondly, I have a big problem with people who are
8:00
anti Trump, and even some people who are Trump supporters
8:05
that are criticizing the president saying, especially Democrats, he needs to.
8:13
Speaker 2: Hurry up and die.
8:14
Speaker 1: Hopefully we're about to get the one big, beautiful obituary
8:18
and all these asinine things that people are saying to
8:21
continue to further justify their hatred of the man who
8:25
occupies sixteen hundred Pennsylvania Avenue. Now, for those of you
8:30
who've been around the pot since the very beginning, you
8:33
know that I am not a big fan of politics.
8:34
As matter of fact, I think everybody in Washington, DC
8:38
is sleezy. I don't care how long they've been there,
8:40
I don't care what kind of I don't care about
8:44
anything they have going on. All of them are sleezy.
8:46
All of them are trying to do us in. All
8:48
of them would much rather see us standing outside holding
8:52
up signs.
8:52
Speaker 2: Saying will work for food.
8:55
Speaker 1: And if you don't believe that, with all due respect,
8:58
I'm gonna have to ask you to get your head
9:00
out of the sand, because the longer your head stays there,
9:03
the more and more they feel like they can pull
9:06
tricks over us without us even paying attention to it.
9:12
But Democrats, you have to be very careful with something.
9:16
You guys can't call for the death of Donald Trump
9:21
while also simultaneously, this same time last year, finally coming
9:26
to terms with the fact that Joe Biden was very inebriated,
9:31
because think about it, you guys wanted nobody to speak
9:35
about Joe Biden's health problems. But the very moment that
9:39
it seems Donald Trump is dealing with a health problem,
9:41
you guys are all for that. So explain something to me.
9:48
If it's okay to talk about Donald Trump's health struggles,
9:51
why isn't it okay for people to still continue to
9:55
talk about Joe Biden's health struggle. Now, Trump supporters, I
9:57
want you guys to understand this too. You guys can't
10:00
sit up and talk smack about Joe Biden, but then
10:03
don't want anybody to talk smack about Donald Trump. So
10:06
you see the hypocrisy that's at play when we talk
10:08
about politics. One of the reasons why I cannot stand
10:13
politics is because of the hypocrisy that is always at play.
10:18
Don't talk about us, but we'll talk about you, And
10:23
that just doesn't work for someone like myself who looks
10:28
at this thing from fifty thousand feet in the air.
10:35
All of this could be avoided easily if the President
10:39
just came out and say, you know what, this is
10:42
what I'm suffering from, this is what my doctor said,
10:45
and this is the plan we have for it going forward.
10:48
Speaker 2: But he hasn't done that.
10:49
Speaker 1: As a matter of fact, he doubled down over the
10:51
weekend saying I'm in the best shape possible, I'm as
10:55
healthy as I can be. I'm paraphrasing, but it went
10:57
along those lines, I'll give you guys a little bit
11:01
of a inside look into my world. Currently, I'm in
11:06
the middle of a fast and I tell you I
11:11
don't know if I've reached my peak because I'm a
11:14
beginner when it comes to fast. This is my first
11:17
time I've really done this at link and I'm very
11:24
low in energy right now, like I'm alert enough to
11:28
do this. But after this, I may go take a nap,
11:30
and after this I may go get something neat. I
11:32
don't know, depends on how I feel. But I'm transparent
11:38
with you guys, because if this episode turns out to
11:40
be a disaster, I want you guys to know what's up.
11:44
And I'm not trying to use the fact that I'm
11:46
fasting right now as an excuse for producing a poor episode,
11:49
but I'm just telling you that this is what's going on.
11:52
Speaker 2: So I just want you guys to be aware of.
11:55
Speaker 1: And I think the president of this country owes us
11:57
the same explanation what's going on with him, Because if
12:01
you're someone who believes that he's suffered from a vain
12:04
problem and that's it, then with all due respect, you
12:08
don't really understand what could truly be going on.
12:12
Speaker 2: Behind the scenes.
12:16
Speaker 1: Because they'll do whatever they have to to make sure
12:19
that our adversaries don't use his declining health.
12:25
Speaker 2: In their favor. But Democrats.
12:33
Speaker 1: Is very sickening to see some of you actively rooting
12:36
for the president to die. But last year and the
12:40
year before that, when Republicans in so many words, were
12:44
calling for Joe Biden to die, you guys had a
12:46
big problem with that. So stand on business. You guys
12:51
allowed Joe Biden to run this country for four years
12:54
without ever questioning his health, his mental acuity.
12:59
Speaker 2: None of that.
13:01
Speaker 1: And now you guys got all the time in the
13:02
world to question Donald Trump's acuity and physical well being.
13:10
Speaker 2: Hypocrisy at his finest.
13:16
Speaker 1: All Right, So I want to shift gears, and I
13:19
want to talk about something that's not political. Every now
13:23
and then on this show, I am going to sprinkle in.
13:27
Speaker 2: Some pop culture.
13:30
Speaker 1: Because every now and then pop culture kind of goes
13:32
back to politics in some shape form or fashion. Right,
13:38
So let's go back to August to thirty first. August thirtieth, Actually,
13:45
that particular day, a podcaster or who I'm pretty sure
13:50
you guys have heard of, by the name of Patrick
13:52
Bett David put out a teaser of a forthcoming interview
13:58
that he's already done with Pro Football Hall of Famer
14:02
Ray Lewis. Now a little bit of a disclaimer at
14:04
the outset, I am not the biggest Ray Lewis fan
14:08
on the planet. There are just some things about Ray
14:11
Lewis that I'm personally not a fan of, but I'll
14:13
just let that be. As we get deeper into this conversation,
14:17
you will understand why I'm not such a big.
14:19
Speaker 2: Fan of Ray.
14:21
Speaker 1: So there's an interview that he did with Patrick Bett
14:24
David that's going to be released sometime this week, and
14:28
in a particular portion of the interview, Patrick Bett David
14:33
asked ray Lewis about Shannon Sharp's success that he's having
14:39
with his podcast and the success that he's had over
14:42
the years with FS one and ESPN, and ray Lewis
14:46
basically said that he wasn't surprised and still isn't surprised
14:51
with the immense amounts of success that Shannon Sharp has
14:54
been able to capture in the broadcasting space because he
14:58
knew that Shannon was going to be success because, in
15:00
his own words, Shannon was prepping for his post football
15:05
broadcasting career years before he retired. In the process of
15:12
talking about it, ray Lewis mentioned that he is not
15:16
happy with the past that Shannon has taken in the
15:23
past few years, essentially saying that Shannon sold out to
15:27
get to the place where he's at now. As we
15:30
all know, Shannon had the interview of the Year last
15:34
year when he interviewed Kat Williams. That interview is still
15:37
doing numbers to this day. But since that interview, his
15:44
podcast Club Shaysha has taken a very different direction. Instead
15:50
of it being a podcast that people going to get interviewed,
15:53
it seems like now it has become a podcast where
15:55
people going to air out their grievances. And ray Lewis
16:00
also called out the fact that you see Shannon now
16:03
he's drinking when he never saw Shannon take a drink.
16:05
Shannon seems to smoke now when you've never seen the smoke.
16:09
All these different things have been called out, not just
16:11
by ray Lewis, but with people who've been familiar with
16:16
Shannon as some shape form or fashion point of their life.
16:23
So let's go ahead and have the conversation that a
16:25
lot of people don't seem the one to have, especially
16:28
in the black community. There was absolutely nothing wrong with
16:34
what ray Lewis said. As a matter of fact, I
16:36
agree with what ray Lewis had to say. But because
16:41
of two factors, a lot of people in the black
16:44
community could not come to terms with what ray Lewis
16:47
had to say. Number One, they don't think ray Lewis
16:50
is the right person to be commenting on this change
16:53
that Shannon has gone through the past few years. And
16:55
number two, a lot of people don't like the fact
16:57
that it seems as though ray Lewis is jealous of
16:59
this sess that Shannon's been having. I don't think ray
17:06
Lewis is jealous at all. I think ray Lewis is
17:10
speaking from a place of being disappointed in seeing a friend,
17:15
someone he considered a brother, feel the need to take
17:18
the path that he's taken in order to remain relevant.
17:23
That's what I believe ray Lewis is upset about, because
17:28
for many of you out there, you don't want to
17:30
believe with your own eyes that Shannon has changed. And
17:35
as I was listening to someone yesterday explained, there's a
17:38
big difference between changing and evolving. Although both words mean
17:43
the same, the actions behind both words don't nearly mean
17:47
the same. When you evolve, you realize that, hey, I
17:51
don't need to be out here making the same mistakes
17:53
that I used to make. Changing is making the same
17:58
mistakes over and over again, and instead of time making accountability,
18:01
you blame everybody else. And there's some other examples that
18:07
we can use, but that's the biggest one that I
18:09
heard people talking about, the big reason why I don't
18:19
like Ray Lewis. And I know some of you are
18:23
gonna push back on this, and that's fine. The reason
18:28
why I don't like ray Lewis is because, still to
18:31
this day, I think ray Lewis has something to do
18:36
with what happened that night in Atlanta in the Superdot
18:39
It's Superdope, super Bowld. There's no way that ray Lewis's
18:46
friends stabbed to people and ray had absolutely nothing to
18:50
do with it.
18:52
Speaker 2: Still to this day, the white suit that he was.
18:55
Speaker 1: Wearing that night has never been found, and people still
19:00
try to convince themselves that ray Lewis had absolutely nothing
19:04
to do with that.
19:07
Speaker 2: Ray Lewis had a hand in killing those two people.
19:12
Speaker 1: And if I'm wrong about that, I'll admit that I'm wrong,
19:15
but I don't think that I am he had something
19:17
to do with it.
19:21
Speaker 2: And speaking of.
19:22
Speaker 1: That incident in Atlanta, a lot of people, when they
19:25
heard what ray Lewis had to say about Shannon, basically said,
19:28
wait a minute, hold up. Now, this is the same
19:31
Shannon Sharp that when you were going through your trial,
19:34
picked you up from the courthouse every day. This is
19:37
the same Shannon Sharp that allowed you to crash in
19:39
his basement while you were at the lowest point of
19:41
your life. And those things are true, But that doesn't
19:46
mean that ray Lewis can't be somewhat disappointed in the
19:50
route that his friend has taken in order to remain relevant.
19:56
And I guess I see this from a different perspective
19:58
because I see this from people that I used to know,
20:03
from people that I.
20:04
Speaker 2: Used to associate with.
20:05
Speaker 1: These are the same types of people that when we
20:08
were in school they talked about how I'll never drink,
20:10
I'll never smoke, I never do this that and the third.
20:12
And now you see them they're doing all the things
20:14
that they told you they never would do. And we
20:19
all know people like that, whether we want to admit
20:21
it or not. People who swore up and down that
20:24
they wouldn't get pregnant out of wet lot. Now look
20:27
at them. In most cases they have two or three
20:29
children out of wet lot. People who told you and
20:32
I that, hey, you'll never have to worry about me
20:35
smoking weed. I don't even like the smell of it.
20:37
Then now you see them, and they're some of the
20:39
highest people that you can run across.
20:42
Speaker 2: Oh, I'll never have to worry about drinking.
20:44
Speaker 1: Then you see them they posted up on Instagram or
20:47
somewhere holding up a Bala don Julio, or you never
20:52
have to worry about me scamming. And then now you
20:55
see them, and all they do is scam. Ray Lewis
21:06
says something in that interview that's very, very poignant. There's
21:12
life and death in the power of the tongue.
21:17
Speaker 2: And he's right.
21:19
Speaker 1: Because what we say ultimately can uplift us or do
21:27
us in And so many people talk without really processing
21:34
what they're about to say. They just want to talk
21:36
just so that they can get their opinion out there
21:39
for people to decipher. And a lot of people who've
21:43
been talking about this Ray Lewis thing, they're always quick
21:47
to bring up, well, ray how can you talk about Shannon?
21:50
Speaker 2: Look at what you've been through.
21:52
Speaker 1: But you can tell that Ray Lewis has evolved from
21:56
what he's gone through. Shannon has not evolved from the
22:00
things that he's gone through. This is the same Shannon
22:03
Sharp that every single job that he's had in broadcast
22:06
and he's been fired from for the exact same thing.
22:12
This is the same Shannon sharpool a couple months ago,
22:15
settled a lawsuit with a former girlfriend of his that
22:18
was young enough to be his granddaughter. The same Shannon
22:24
Sharp who told her in a phone call that I'm
22:26
gonna choke you when I feel you. That's what he
22:28
told her. And what, man do you know, since we're here,
22:40
what man do you know who's around the same age
22:42
as Shannon will be arguing with a woman young enough
22:47
to be his granddaughter. Man, this is the same guy
22:53
who has all the time in the world to talk
22:55
about everybody else's transgressions, but when it's time to talk
22:59
about here, my lawyer had devised me not to say anything.
23:02
Speaker 2: And I'm gonna oh Joe that the I ain't gonna
23:04
think nothing nil. That's him.
23:13
Speaker 1: I'll pose it to you guys this way, and I
23:15
just want you to think about this question before you
23:17
answer it. If you saw a friend of yours, who
23:24
you considered a brother go down a path in their
23:30
life that you would not go down, and that you
23:33
never in a million years envision them going down. Would
23:37
you sit idly by and continue to allow them to
23:40
immerse themselves in a world of.
23:43
Speaker 2: Straight up debauchery? Now I get it.
23:48
Speaker 1: Some people are saying, well, Ray Lewis is a man
23:50
of God, he's a Christian, and you can tell that
23:53
he is trying to become even better in his walk
23:57
with Christ. And those same people will say, well, you've
24:02
never heard Shannon profess that he's a Bible following Christian.
24:10
You've never heard Shannon.
24:11
Speaker 2: Say that.
24:16
Speaker 1: Jesus is his Lord and Savior, that he's been saved,
24:19
that he's ready to go on a walk in his
24:22
life for Christ. You've never heard Shannon say any of
24:24
those things. So people say after that, well, if Shannon
24:30
has never uttered any of those things, then why is
24:32
Ray Lewis trying to attack him? From a biblical perspective.
24:40
Ray Lewis is attacking Shannon. I won't say attacking Shannon.
24:45
Ray is critiquing Shannon from a biblical perspective. Because we've
24:50
all been taught that we should not immerse ourselves into
24:57
the world, but we should immerse ourselves in the Word.
25:01
And we all know people in our lives who've become
25:03
too worldly, who've gotten away from their biblical roots. Because
25:10
I'm pretty sure we all know somebody who's a preacher's kid,
25:14
and the way they grew up compared to how they
25:16
conduct themselves now is like night and day. You would
25:19
have never thought that they would immerse themselves in a
25:22
worldly culture, coming from some coming from a home that
25:27
was rooted in the Word of God. And I'm not
25:33
here to preach to you because I'm imperfect, because I
25:39
believe in the notion, I believe in what's written in
25:43
scripture that there is no one perfect, no not one.
25:50
But I'm also someone who tries to be as real,
25:55
raw and authentic as possible. And there is absolutely nothing wrong,
26:01
nothing wrong with Ray Lewis basically saying that he does
26:05
not recognize the Shannon Sharp that he sees today. And
26:12
if that was your friend, you'd be saying the same
26:14
thing if you saw a change in it.
26:17
Speaker 2: But so many people don't want.
26:19
Speaker 1: To call out the change that they see in Shannon
26:21
because they enjoyed the entertainment value that they get from Shannon,
26:26
so they sit back and they allow it to happen,
26:30
and when it's time to speak on it, they It's
26:34
almost like when you live in a neighborhood and a
26:37
crime happens, you were standing on your porch when the
26:40
crime happened, and when the police come and they want
26:42
to get statements, Oh, I didn't see nothing. I wasn't
26:45
even outside when they're shooting app knowing damn well, you
26:48
were standing on your porch and you saw the person.
26:51
Speaker 2: Get shot, and you saw who shot him.
26:56
Speaker 1: And there are so many people who are complicit in
26:59
the character that Shannon has become because this whole stick
27:05
about him smoking and drinking and all this stuff is
27:10
an act. And what I find so reprehensible about this
27:17
is that, especially in the black community, the one thing
27:21
that we always say is that we want people to
27:23
be real with us. But when you got Shannon out
27:27
here not being real, you guys seem to be okay
27:30
with it.
27:30
Speaker 2: But this is the.
27:31
Speaker 1: Same group of people who always talk about wanting people
27:34
to remain real. You can't ask people to be real
27:39
with you in your day to day life and be
27:41
okay with the character that Shannon is producing on a
27:45
damn near daily basis on his podcast because those two
27:53
things don't align. You truly care about somebody, you have
28:02
no problem calling them out when you see them doing
28:04
things that you know that they usually don't do. But
28:14
people will swear up and down to the high Heavens
28:17
that Ray Lewis is just a hater. Ray Lewis is
28:20
mad that he didn't have that same success in broadcasting
28:23
slash podcasting like Shannon's been having. And I think, and
28:28
I can't speak for Ray, but I'll say this and
28:30
then I'll move on. I think that ray Lewis doesn't
28:34
want the kind of success that Shannon's been having, especially
28:37
if in the process you have to give up your
28:39
true authentic self to carry on as a character that
28:44
you know you never would have been if those checks
28:50
weren't what they've been. All Right, last thing I want
28:56
to talk about, and then we're gonna get.
28:59
Speaker 2: Out of here. Nearly one week ago.
29:07
Speaker 1: Or tomorrow would make one week since this happened, So
29:11
nearly a week ago there was a shooting at the
29:18
Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Two children were killed
29:29
and fourteen other children, as well as three elderly parishioners
29:35
were wounded by twenty three year old Robert Westman. I
29:47
know what some of you were saying. His name's not Robert,
29:50
his name is Robin. I don't look. When you kill children,
29:55
all this goes out the window. And I'll break that
29:58
down more than a minute. So Robert, twenty three years old,
30:07
graduated from this same school back in twenty seventeen.
30:12
Speaker 2: This same Robert, prior to.
30:18
Speaker 1: Doing this heinous act, uploaded his manifesto to social media,
30:27
which basically detailed what he was going to do.
30:30
Speaker 2: And why he was going to do it.
30:31
Speaker 1: Also, in that manifesto, he said one of the people
30:33
he would have loved to have killed was Donald Trump.
30:38
Speaker 2: Beat that as it may. These children.
30:47
Speaker 1: Were in their first week of school and this low
30:54
life trash went into that school and just started shooting
31:02
once again, killing two and injuring seventeen others. And immediately
31:13
after it happened, And I'm trying to be careful with
31:22
this because I'm very upset about this. Anytime that children
31:27
are killed or harmed, I get very upset. After this
31:32
tragedy happened, the fucking mayor of Minnianapolis think the bastard's
31:42
name is Jacob Frar something like that got on TV,
31:48
and instead of offering condolences to the families of the
31:51
victims and mentioning thoughts and prayers or with those who
31:57
suffered from the atrocity that it just happened, this son
32:02
of a bitch instead wanted to talk about how there
32:10
is a basically an all out of salt on the
32:13
LGBTQ plus community. Now, please don't get me wrong, if
32:22
you're LGBTQ plus, I have no problems with you guys.
32:27
Those of you who go about your day, you don't
32:32
bother anybody. You just want to exist in society like
32:36
everybody else. My gripe is not with you, guys.
32:41
Speaker 2: My gripe.
32:44
Speaker 1: Is with those who want to shove it down everybody's
32:47
throat that they are a part.
32:50
Speaker 2: Of the LGBTQ plus community.
32:54
Speaker 1: You have some people that you associate with every day,
32:59
and you may not even that they're gay, You may
33:02
not even know that they're trands, you may not even know.
33:06
Speaker 2: That they're lesbian.
33:07
Speaker 1: Any of that, because they don't make it a point
33:11
of letting you know that. They want to just do
33:14
their job and go home. But then you have some
33:18
others out here they want you to know they're shoving
33:23
down your throat. Hey I'm trans, Hey I'm gay, Hey
33:26
I'm lesbian. Hey, I don't care.
33:28
Speaker 2: Live your life because at the end of the day.
33:31
Speaker 1: It's not my job to judge, because there's somebody more
33:34
powerful than me who's gonna judge you one day anyway.
33:37
For the choices you made throughout the course of your life,
33:43
and for this bastard to not want to even offer
33:49
condolencence to those who've been injured speaks volumes. You couldn't
33:55
offer condolences to the families of those who were killed,
34:00
but you made it a point to make sure to
34:02
reference the fact that the LGBT plus community is under attack.
34:07
What about those children who were praying? Listen to that again.
34:15
If you didn't hear me, right, these children and their
34:19
parents were in prayer when this guy opened fire. And
34:35
I know what some out there would say, he wasn't
34:37
a guy, he was a woman. I don't care he
34:43
killed children, so spare me with that. I don't give
34:49
a fuck what he was. He killed children. That's as
34:56
low as you can go from me. If if you
35:00
can fix yourself to kill children, you're at the lowest
35:05
portion of my totem pole, you're right there with trash.
35:09
As matter of fact, you might be a little bit
35:11
lord than trash. I would put trash above you. People
35:17
who kill children, people who rape children, people who sell
35:24
children into labor or sell children into sex, people who
35:32
take pictures of children for their own sexual gratification are
35:36
disgusting animals. And this guy who killed these children last
35:43
week in Minnesota is no different. He's trash, disgusting. You
35:55
get no respect from me. I'm not gonna sit here
35:59
and respect your pronouns. After you've killed children. You don't
36:06
get that luxury from me anymore. And of course, after
36:17
it happened, the two sides of the political spectrum, what
36:22
did they do.
36:24
Speaker 2: Had to make it political?
36:28
Speaker 1: Uh, well, let's blame the Republicans, let's blame the Democrats.
36:32
How about we take a second to address what just
36:35
happened before we start trying to point fingers as to
36:40
which political party was solely responsible for why this happened.
36:45
Let's get down to the root of what continues to
36:47
cause these mass shootings to happen. But we can't even
36:54
do that because we want to score political points. We
37:04
want our party to come out victorious. We don't want
37:08
our party to be blamed. There are so many days
37:18
of my life where.
37:23
Speaker 2: I wake up.
37:26
Speaker 1: And I just ask myself, why do you continue to
37:29
have faith in America?
37:34
Speaker 2: There are so many days where I ask that question.
37:36
Speaker 1: Why do I wake up and continue to have faith
37:38
in this country? A country that has no problem with
37:50
so many things, so many atrocities that are being committed
37:53
throughout the world. This country seems to have no problem
37:56
with it, or it's leaders seem to have no problem
37:58
with it. Why do I continue to have love for
38:01
a country that can't come together to solve the most
38:05
basic issues that plague every single American? Why do I
38:10
continue to have faith in a country that seems to
38:16
strip away rights every single day, all under the gods
38:21
of making America great again? Why do I still have
38:28
faith in a country that would rather send billions upon
38:33
billions of dollars to foreign countries than to use those
38:38
same billions to take care of Americans here at home.
38:45
Why do I continue to still have faith in a
38:47
country that has leaders that doesn't seem the mind to
38:51
get us into a conflict every time they see one arising.
38:59
Why do I still continue to have faith in a
39:01
country that instead of keeping the main thing the main
39:06
thing when children lose their lives, they instead want to
39:11
go and blame the other side of the aisle for
39:15
not doing this or not doing that, or doing too
39:17
much of this or doing too much of that. We're
39:19
losing sight of the issue. And the more and more
39:23
we continue to lose sight of the issue, the more
39:25
and more we're gonna see things like this pop off
39:27
throughout the country. We gotta get real and we gotta
39:34
start talking about what we see happening, because if we don't,
39:39
we're gonna be in for the loan haul on this
39:43
and it won't be pretty. That's gonna do it for me. Guys,
39:49
hope that you enjoyed the show today. If you didn't,
39:52
I can understand why. We'll be right back here again
39:55
next week to break down some more of the latest
39:57
from around the world of politics and our own unique,
40:00
unapologetic and controversial ways. So make sure that you tune
40:03
in until then, you guys, continue to enjoy your day,
40:06
continue to enjoy your week's, Stay safe, take care of God,
40:08
bless we are out peace.
