- 0:51Speaker 3: Begod morning? You know the two shooters I just read
- 0:54Speaker 3: in Australia which is almost impossible to get a gun
- 0:57Speaker 3: owned guns legally, which reminded me of the story that
- 1:00Speaker 3: here in Fort Pierce, I just moved down here, I'm
- 1:03Speaker 3: at a gun store and he tells me. The shooter,
- 1:05Speaker 3: Olmar Betine, the guy that killed the fifty kids in
- 1:08Speaker 3: the nightclub, went to that gun store tried to buy guns.
- 1:12Speaker 3: They overheard him on the phone, and they denied selling
- 1:14Speaker 3: him guns. They gave the owner his background information. The
- 1:18Speaker 3: owner called the FBI two weeks before the shooting. This
- 1:21Speaker 3: was Yeah.
- 1:21Speaker 1: You hear a lot of these guys came down there.
- 1:23Speaker 1: You hear a lot of these kind of stories where
- 1:25Speaker 1: they could have caught the guy. They didn't catch the guy.
- 1:27Speaker 3: They didn't catch him, and the FBI denied anything.
- 1:30Speaker 1: In the other send they call the FBI for you. Hey, yeah,
- 1:33Speaker 1: you got you got a lot of crazy people down
- 1:35Speaker 1: there in Florida. And nothing personal, but you know what
- 1:37Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know if it's no heat or what. Yeah, no, no,
- 1:41Speaker 1: I'm just saying, you got a lot of crazy people
- 1:43Speaker 1: down there in Florida. Yeah, how many? Per cappity? You
- 1:46Speaker 1: got more crazy incidents there with guns and things than
- 1:49Speaker 1: anywhere else. Let's go to Virginia in Massapequa, Virginia.
- 1:53Speaker 5: How you doing, Hie, Mark, marry Christmas. And I'm so happy,
- 1:59Speaker 5: Oh my god, I'm so excited. I'm sorry about me
- 2:01Speaker 5: I'm so happy to hear that Curtis. I'm a new listener.
- 2:04Speaker 5: I'm actually a new listener. Yes, I'm happy about YouTube.
- 2:07Speaker 5: I am a new listener. I used to listen to
- 2:09Speaker 5: w w ABC, but Curtisy will only and because he's
- 2:15Speaker 5: just he's funny, he's on point about everything. He's a
- 2:18Speaker 5: sworn man and driving to work this morning. Like I said,
- 2:22Speaker 5: a new listener. I've been listening about a week and
- 2:24Speaker 5: just to hear the Curtis is coming on wo R,
- 2:26Speaker 5: which people have been talking about online. It's just like
- 2:29Speaker 5: the best early Christmas gift ever.
- 2:32Speaker 1: And well you got to hear lots of lots of Curtis.
- 2:35Speaker 1: He'll be filling in for me for two weeks. Yeah,
- 2:39Speaker 1: oh wait a minute, December twenty second through. I think
- 2:42Speaker 1: I'm off Friday. That might be Ken Risotto. But next
- 2:44Speaker 1: week you'll get Curtis. Next week you'll get Curtis for
- 2:49Speaker 1: two weeks.
- 2:49Speaker 5: It's just it's really good because I know that he's
- 2:51Speaker 5: you know, you guys will maybe he'll find a spot
- 2:54Speaker 5: or whatever. I really like the station. I'm enjoying everything
- 2:57Speaker 5: that I'm hearing, and it's just really refreshing to have
- 3:00Speaker 5: have people a station that doesn't insult their listeners in
- 3:04Speaker 5: quodling morons and the fact that Curtis is going to
- 3:06Speaker 5: be on.
- 3:07Speaker 1: And you know the minute I call people morons.
- 3:11Speaker 5: No, I mean there are.
- 3:12Speaker 1: People I don't call regular people, but no, I know. Hey,
- 3:18Speaker 1: we're glad to have you as a listener. Thanks, thanks
- 3:20Speaker 1: for coming on board. Be listening for Curtis next week.
- 3:23Speaker 1: Let's go to Vincent and Brooklyn. Vincent, how you doing.
- 3:26Speaker 4: Good morning, Mark, Good morning Mara. As you pointed out
- 3:29Speaker 4: earlier in the show, there's no country in the world
- 3:32Speaker 4: that has more restrictive gun world. No perhaps New Zealand,
- 3:36Speaker 4: where you can't even own a p shooter. This demonstrates
- 3:41Speaker 4: that when you restrict guns like that and to the people,
- 3:48Speaker 4: the legal people, like they did in Australia. They even
- 3:51Speaker 4: confiscated rifles in Australia. And in the NL magazine they
- 3:56Speaker 4: showed you this mountain, this pile of all the guns
- 3:59Speaker 4: they confidence gated. Then only the criminals could get them,
- 4:03Speaker 4: because criminals have a different mindset. Legit people, when they
- 4:08Speaker 4: can't get something, they can't get a gun, all right,
- 4:11Speaker 4: that's it, the end of the story. But criminals they
- 4:14Speaker 4: will find one way or another to get a gun.
- 4:20Speaker 4: And I heard a commentator who used to come on
- 4:23Speaker 4: your show last night saying that they've even been studies
- 4:27Speaker 4: that show when the more legal guns there are in
- 4:31Speaker 4: a town and a place, the less crime there is.
- 4:35Speaker 4: This poor Soo B had to jump the guy with
- 4:38Speaker 4: his bare hands and he managed to pull the gun
- 4:41Speaker 4: away from him. Imagine if that guy, the shooter, was
- 4:45Speaker 4: a little bit swifter, he could have turned around and
- 4:49Speaker 4: killed that guy who took the gun out of his hand.
- 4:52Speaker 4: That's why I hope now they get rid of Australia's president,
- 4:56Speaker 4: get somebody who's got common sense like Donald Trump. Course,
- 5:00Speaker 4: even though their prime minister is a conservative, the guy's
- 5:04Speaker 4: out of his mind for doing what he did. Any criminal.
- 5:09Speaker 4: I mean, if I wanted to get Doug, please, don't
- 5:13Speaker 4: let me talk if.
- 5:13Speaker 1: I want no, no, no, don't say it, Vincent, don't
- 5:16Speaker 1: say it. You know I mean a good point, though.
- 5:18Speaker 4: You know what I mean.
- 5:19Speaker 1: I know what you mean.
- 5:20Speaker 4: But Vincent, excellent, We're gonna have more legit people. Mark.
- 5:23Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, Vincent, great call, Thanks for calling. Uh
- 5:26Speaker 1: oh when we come back, Ed Rollins will be with us. Hey,
- 5:29Speaker 1: if anybody says to you, well, what's gonna happen next year,
- 5:31Speaker 1: Who's going to win the midterms. It's a totally invalid question.
- 5:35Speaker 1: We'll go into why coming up next on seven to ten,
- 5:39Speaker 1: wor
